Hello muppet-boy,
I'm not an rpm wiz, but look on your Mandrake CD's for locate, also it may be included with some other package that you may not have choosen to install. If you do find it then something like rpm -Uvh packagename.rpm will install it.
Now for a complete listing of what rpm does see JimH ;D
As for the permissions. Once you create a user, most things should already be setup to allow that user to have control over installed applications. However if they user wanted to install an application then it would have to be in that users home directory. For installing applications anywhere else, that's root's job. If you wanted to edit system wide files, that's root's job as well. It's all about security.
If you wanted to let user X play with /var/www/html then that dir would need to be owned by that user, as well as the files within. Or you could add that user to the group that owns the files. Then you would need the permissions to look something like this: rw-rw---. It would have to be that way for the directory as well as the files. Another way would be to all other to access the files. In which case nothing needs to be done about adding groups etc. Only need to modify permissions to allow other to access the files. That would like like this: rw-rw-rw-. This later method though is pretty much like saying everyone, and their gandmother need to come play with my files.

Hello all!
I am very new in Linux world. I am learning. Since last 10 days I am trying to create a Networking between Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4 and Windows XP Professional. I connected both one through the Router. Linux side I can see the Windows share and alos access it. But unfortunately at Windows side I just can see the Linux share but when I double click I got the following error:
"\\Localhost is not accessible. You might not have permission to use this network resources. Contact the administrator of this Server to find out if you have access permission.
You were not connected because a duplicate name exists on the network. Go to the system in Control Panel to change the computer name and try again."
I did every thing whate ever 4 different books/manuals says. I need Linux communicty help to inform me about my mistakes. I will be very much thankful.

Submission BitTorrent Launches Dropbox Alternative With Unlimited Storage->
redletterdave writes: "On Friday morning, BitTorrent launched a new free public service called BitTorrent Sync, which allows users to securely backup and sync files over the Web using BitTorrent's platform as both a backup and shared drive. BitTorrent Sync is also highly secure and works across all devices, but unlike competing services like Box or Dropbox, BitTorrent Sync doesn't use the cloud (which means that no third-party has access to one's files), and also has no storage limits."

Ray Bradbury
Associated Press
Ray Bradbury, 1920 — 2012
Ray Bradbury was a master of science fiction whose lyrical evocations of the future reflected both the optimism and the anxieties of his own postwar America.
Mr. Bradbury died on June 5, 2012, at the age of 91.
His most famous novel is "Fahrenheit 451," published in 1953. Named for the temperature at which paper ignites, the novel depicts a near-future society in which firemen don't extinguish fires but instead burn books, and where the complacent populace, numbed by nonstop television and advertising, seems all too eager to embrace enforced ignorance.
By many estimations Mr. Bradbury was the writer most responsible for bringing modern science fiction into the literary mainstream. His name would appear near the top of any list of major science-fiction writers of the 20th century, beside those of Isaac Asimov, Arthur C. Clarke, Robert A. Heinlein and the Polish author Stanislaw Lem.
In Mr. Bradbury's lifetime more than eight million copies of his books were sold in 36 languages. They included the short-story collections "The Martian Chronicles," "The Illustrated Man" and "The Golden Apples of the Sun," and the novels "Fahrenheit 451" and "Something Wicked This Way Comes."
Though his work never won a Pulitzer Prize, Mr. Bradbury received a special Pulitzer citation in 2007 "for his distinguished, prolific and deeply influential career as an unmatched author of science fiction and fantasy."
The citation described him as "one of those rare individuals whose writing has changed the way people think.''
"The Martian Chronicles" became a staple of high school and college English courses, an achievement not without irony; Mr. Bradbury disdained formal education. He went so far as to attribute his success as a writer to his never having gone to college.
Instead he read everything he could get his hands on, by authors including Edgar Allan Poe, Jules Verne, H. G. Wells, Edgar Rice Burroughs, Thomas Wolfe and Ernest Hemingway. He paid homage to them in 1971 in the autobiographical essay "How Instead of Being Educated in College, I Was Graduated From Libraries." (Late in life he took an active role in fund-raising efforts for public libraries in Southern California.)
Mr. Bradbury started his literary career as the self-publisher of the fanzine Futuria Fantasia when he was 18. The fanzine's four issues were anthologized and reissued in 2007 by Graham Press. The fanzine was bankrolled by Forrest J. Ackerman, one of science fiction's greatest fans and the man said to have coined the term sci-fi; only 100 original copies were printed. They contain early work by such future science fiction luminaries as Hannes Bok and Robert Heinlein.

Hi all
OK, I'm a right php noob, but want to learn. Have basic working knowledge of MySQL and am happy using it via the command line or phpMyAdmin.
I don't know if this is a good idea but I'll try and explain it.
My website is http://www.xinit.net.
What I'd like to do is change it so that it's based upon php and MySQL.
My plan is to ssplit each webpage up into 4
Header, Navigation&Links, Search Feature and the Main Content.
I've done a google and checked out a few of the php devoted sites but can't find an answer.
Can this be done? If so is it good practice?
The idea behind it is to stoe all values in the DB and if for example I or someone else (with no html knowledge) wanted to add content then they could simply type it out in the format they wanted it displayed, add it to the DB and hey presto they have a correctly formatted web page.
So what do you think.

This sinh we bought in Sam Tai in Huaphan Province and were told it was an older "Shaman's Sinh."
Patricia Cheesman writes in her book Lao-thai Textiles: The Textiles of Xam Nuea and Muang Phuan in Chapter 6, Textiles for Women's Ceremonial Dress that "Textiles for ceremonies were made using more silk than everyday textiles and involved more complex designs and techniques, many of which took months to complete... Ceremonial textiles were often never washed, but rather wiped clean if soiled. The occasions for wearing ceremonial textiles were annual festivals, spirit healing and appeasing ceremonies, Buddhist festivals, weddings, house warmings, farewell ceremonies and various rites of passage depending on the beliefs of the people. Textiles played a major role in the healing and spirit appeasing ceremonies of the shamanic groups. Gatherings of all occasions were opportunities for young women to show off their weaving expertise to potential suitors and village elders and for older women to exchange ideas for new designs and techniques. Weaving skills have always been an important sign of a woman's ability to look after a family. The Tai Daeng in the Xam Nuea style throughout their history and continue to weave them to this day.

Lady Gaga's recent revelation that she had been tested for lupus had some fans worried that the pop star is ill. When asked in an interview how she's feeling, the pop star, 24, responds with a simple, "I'm okay," before adding that lupus, which took the life of her aunt Joanne, does run in her family. The singer also told the interviewer that "So as of right now, I don't have it. But I do have to take good care of myself".
This young lady seems calm and positive about her potential illness. It is very important and helpful for her health. Research has shown that individuals' illness perceptions predict health behaviors and functional outcomes. There is wide variation between individuals in their health and illness behaviors. For example, how quickly they seek medical attention for symptoms, and whether they take medication as prescribed. Behaviors such as these can have large influences on subsequent morbidity and mortality. Research into the psychological predictors of health and illness behaviors helps us to build theoretical models to understand why people behave as they do, and inform intervention strategies (Elizabeth Broadbent, 2010).
According to parallel response model, that in response to situational stimuli (such as symptoms and the environment), people simultaneously form both emotional states (such as fear) and cognitive representations of the threat of illness, the illness perception. The illness perceptions include ideas about: identity (the name of the illness and which symptoms are associated with it), timeline (how long the illness will continue), cause (what caused the illness), control (how well the illness can be controlled), and consequences (the effects of the illness on life domains). Previous research showed that stronger beliefs about the identity and consequences of an illness were associated with avoidance and denial coping strategies, higher expression of emotions, poorer physical, social and psychological functioning, and lower vitality. In contrast, stronger beliefs in the controllability of the illness were associated with greater use of cognitive reappraisal and problem-focused coping, as well as better psychological and social well-being, vitality, and with lesser disease state. It is because that in a self-regulatory process, individuals choose which procedures (actions) to take to manage their emotions and reduce the illness threat based on the content of these representations. The results of taking the chosen action further modify the representation of the illness in a feedback loop.

WASHINGTON (MarketWatch) – Now that Republicans have conceded two of their most cherished economic ideals, the path is open for them to reach a deal with President Barack Obama to avoid going over the so-called fiscal cliff in early January.
The only thing that stands in the way of a deal now is for the Republicans to recognize that they've already given up on their core principles.
Foremost, they've now agreed to raise taxes on the wealthy, thus abandoning their No. 1 talking point that taxes can never go up. Read Republicans offer tax revenue in cliff plan.
And, just by acknowledging that the fiscal cliff has to be avoided because of the damage that austerity would inflict on the economy, they've rotated 180 degrees to become Keynesians in their economics, thus abandoning their main gripe about Barack Obama's efforts to stimulate the economy over the past four years. Read John Boehner describe "the threat to our economy" from the fiscal cliff.
It could take some time for Republicans to realize what they've done, and it could require some tricky negotiations to allow both parties to save some face in a final bargain. It is by no means certain that a deal can be struck by Dec. 31. But the biggest hurdle to a deal has now been overcome.
Republicans insist that they are still standing by their principles. But that's just political posturing.
Everything you need to know about the fiscal cliff
Last August, President Obama and Congress put the U.S. economy on course to go over a "fiscal cliff." WSJ's David Wessel tells you everything you need to know about the "cliff" but were afraid to ask.
The key concession by the Republicans was when House Speaker John Boehner agreed to $800 billion in new revenues, rather than $0. We don't know the details of the Republican proposal; all we know is that the money would come from reducing various tax breaks for families making over $250,000, but we don't know which ones would be capped or eliminated.
Obama is on board with reducing some of these tax breaks, but he says that it wouldn't raise enough money. Obama insists that marginal rates must rise, while Republicans insist that they must not.
There doesn't appear to be much common ground in those two positions, and neither side has budged an inch on that particular demand.
Of course, there are plenty of other issues that also must be resolved in the fiscal cliff negotiations, including how much to trim spending on Medicare and Medicaid and other government programs. However, both sides have some negotiating room on spending; they haven't drawn too many lines in the sand. The intractable issue is what to do about marginal rates. Solve that, and everything else will fall into place.
There is less than meets the eye in the disagreement over marginal tax rates. In terms of economic impact, it won't make that much difference how the extra revenue is raised, whether by raising marginal tax rates or through broadening the tax base by eliminating some tax deductions and exclusions.
In either case, the money will come from the very few who make more than $250,000 a year. That's what Obama campaigned on and it looks like he'll get what he wanted.
Broadening the base
Conservatives and liberals alike argue that "broadening the tax base" is theoretically the best way to raise more revenue. These tax breaks — also known as tax expenditures — distort economic decisions. They give people incentives, for instance, to invest more in housing or spend more on health care than they would otherwise.

Congregation B'nai Israel has roots dating back to the Gold Rush
For more than a half a century, Congregation B'nai Israel has had a temple in Land Park that has been a very important place for the local Jewish community. The site, however, is only part of the rich history of the congregation's presence in Sacramento.
The roots of Congregation B'nai Israel, in fact, date back to the great Gold Rush of California.
During this time in history, Jewish immigrants arrived in Sacramento mainly from Germany and Poland. Others arrived from Russia, England and France.
Of these early Jewish immigrants, Moses Hyman, who resided at 56 Front St., is recognized as the first Jewish leader in Sacramento.
Congregation B'nai Israel was established in 1852 as an outgrowth from the Hebrew Benevolent Society, which was founded by Jewish pioneers during the later months of 1850.
Services of the congregation were held in private homes in the capital city until June 1852, when a building was purchased from the First Methodist Episcopal Church.
The prefabricated building, which was located at 7th and L streets, was shipped around Cape Horn from Baltimore to San Francisco in 1849.
The building, which was then brought to Sacramento and consecrated in September 1852, became the first synagogue west of the Mississippi.
Unfortunately for the congregation, the original synagogue was burned down during a great fire, which also destroyed many other buildings in the area.
Following the fire, under Rabbi Z. Newstadter, a congregation met at a temporary temple on 5th Street.
By 1864, a new temple on 6th Street, between J and K streets, was consecrated and used for services and other gatherings for the following 40 years.
In about 1880, the congregation shifted from Orthodox Judaism to Reform Judaism.
A new, two-story synagogue with an upstairs sanctuary, a social hall, stage and kitchen, was constructed and opened on 15th Street, between N and O streets, in about 1904.
The history of the Jewish synagogue in the capital city includes many notable Sacramentans.
Among the more notable people who were members of the congregation were David Lubin and Harris Weinstock.
Many present day Sacramentans are familiar with the names Weinstock and Lubin due to the longtime existence of the department store, Weinstock-Lubin and Co., which was located at 11th and K streets. Other locations of the store, which was later known as Weinstock's, were located in the greater Sacramento area.
The name David Lubin has also been memorialized through the David Lubin Elementary School at 3535 M St. in East Sacramento. The school, which had the previous address 3700 K St., opened in about the mid-1920s.
In addition to his connection to the Weinstock-Lubin store, Lubin is also recognized as the founder of the International Institute of Agriculture.
Weinstock, who was Lubin's half-brother, was the co-founder of the Sutter Club, the Unitarian and Economic clubs of San Francisco and the Commonwealth Club of California.
Additionally, the temple's records show that Weinstock, who occupied the temple's pulpit when no rabbi was present, was responsible for bringing Rabbi Joseph L. Levy to Sacramento.
Levy was recognized as the "bright light of Judaism" and was invited to speak at a variety of temple and civic functions.
Other notable people who were members of the congregation were Isador Cohen, August Heilbron, Albert Elkus and Lewis Gerstle.
Following World War II, the Jewish community of Sacramento expanded immensely.
It was also during this time that the 15th Street synagogue was showing its age.
A joke about the building at the time was that the structure was held together with baling wire.
During the late 1940s, property was purchased for a $250,000 synagogue at the site of the old Riverside Baths, a public swimming pool on Riverside Boulevard and 11th Avenue.
Heading the drive to collect funds for the new temple was the congregation's president, Dalton Feldstein.
So important was Feldstein's assistance with the project to have the synagogue constructed that the structure became known as "the house that Dalton built."
The cornerstone for the Riverside synagogue was laid on Tuesday, Nov. 17, 1953 at 11 a.m.
Attending the event were representatives of Gov. Goodwin J. Knight and Congressman John E. Moss, Jr., who placed items in the cornerstone.
Following the cornerstone laying ceremony, public tours of the new building were led by leaders of the congregation.
On Friday, April 2, 1954, the then-recently completed synagogue was dedicated, as more than 1,000 Sacramento Jews, as well as Christians and others, gathered for the event.
The Sacramento Bee reported that the dedication ceremony presented "a spirit of brotherhood among all faiths and all men."
During the dedication ceremony, Rabbi Irving I. Hausman read a prayer and introduced Feldstein, who he described as the "propelling force" behind the new synagogue.
In his dedicatory address, Feldstein said, "This is the first time in my life that I have had the honor and pleasure of dedicating a house of worship. The problems and the trials that went into bringing (the synagogue) into being are as nothing tonight."
In the early 1960s, a religious school building, which was later named in memory of Bennett "Buddy" Kandel, was added to the temple grounds.
The synagogue's records show that from about the mid-1940s until 1985, membership in the congregation grew from about 200 individuals to about 700 families.
It was also in 1985 that a groundbreaking was held for a chapel, a library and an office building.
Another feature of the temple site is the Opper Courtyard, an outdoor sanctuary named after Sy and Estelle Opper and dedicated in April 1998 to Sophia Dubowsky for her devotion to her family and the Jewish community.
On June 18, 1998, a firebomb destroyed the temple's library, but through much support, funds were raised for the reconstruction of the building.
The trauma and destruction caused by the incident aroused the sympathies of many Jewish and non-Jewish people in the community.
Following the bombing, Rabbi Mona Alfi commented about this tragedy.
"Ironically, I think that much more will come out of the bombing than any harm that was inflicted upon us," Alfi said. "I think we're going to come across as a stronger congregation (and) a more involved congregation."
The congregation's ability to persevere and overcome this dark incident in the synagogue's history is a fine example of the outlook of its members.
In a 1999 documentary about the history of the synagogue, it was mentioned that the true spirit of Congregation B'nai Israel is not in its buildings, but instead in the soul of its members.
Working to serve the spiritual needs of its members and guests, weekly services are led by Rabbi Alfi on Friday evenings and Saturday mornings.
Today, Congregation B'nai Israel, which is recognized as the city's oldest Jewish congregation, continues to honor its traditions of heritage while "creating a Jewish experience that is relevant to today's society."

Orange and chocolate top nearly everyones chart of favorite flavor marriages, which is what makes this sauce so appealing. If you have candied orange peel on hand, chop some and pair it with the sauce for an extra dose of orange. Use a Microplane grater to zest the orange.
Put the chocolate in a medium stainless-steel bowl.
Pour the cream into a small saucepan. Finely grate the zest from the orange directly into the pan. (The orange can then be juiced as part of the 2 cups fresh orange juice.) Place over medium heat and bring to a boil. Remove from the heat and cover the top of the pan with plastic wrap. Let steep for 30 minutes.
While the cream is steeping, reduce the orange juice: Put the juice into a small sauce-pan and stir in the sugar. Scrape the vanilla seeds from the bean into the pan and then add the bean. Bring to a moderate boil over medium-high heat and cook, stirring occasionally with a rubber spatula, until the juice reduces by half (1 cup/8 ounces), about 15 minutes. Remove from the heat.
After the cream has steeped for 30 minutes, remove the plastic and bring the cream to a simmer over medium heat. Add the reduced orange juice, bring to a boil, and remove from the heat.
Strain through a fine-mesh sieve directly into the chocolate. Whisk until the chocolate is melted.
Pour the sauce into a 1-quart clear vessel. Blend with an immersion blender until smooth.
Either use immediately, or let cool to room temperature, pour into a jar, cover, and refrigerate. It will keep for at least 1 month. To reheat, stir over low heat.
9 ounces 70% chocolate, coarsely chopped
1 1/2 cups (12 ounces) heavy whipping cream
1 orange
2 cups (16 ounces) fresh orange juice (6 to 8 oranges)
1/4 cup (1 3/4 ounces) granulated cane sugar
1 Tahitian vanilla bean, split horizontally

Sony has decided to buck the trend that's been taking us towards ever-smaller tablets with the first Godzilla of tablets – the Sony VAIO Tap 20. This tablet/portable all-in-one pc has a 20-inch screen, weighs a hefty 11.5 pounds AND can run on its rechargeable battery for up to 3 hours. What would you call it?
The Tap 20 is impressive. It is sleek like tablet with less bulk than most laptops. Its stand allows the 20-inch touch-screen tablet to be laid flat or propped at almost any angle. While there's no disc drive, its wireless keyboard and mouse lets it function like an all-in-one.
Sony is hoping that the tablet will be recognized for its versatility, particularly suited to the needs of families. It's a desktop, laptop, all-in-one and tablet. It looks like the only thing the Tap 20 is not is a smartphone.
Here's a short run-down on a few more of the Tap 20's specs.
• Third-gen Intel Core i3 processor
• 4GB of RAM (configurable to 8GB)
• 500GB hard drive that you can also configure with i5 and i7 CPUs
• 20-inch, 1,600 x 900 display that uses IPS technology that should create decent viewing angles even when a group is crowded around the screen
• Built-in NFC
• Video playback engine is powered by Sony Bravia picture-quality technology
• 1.3-megapixel webcam
• Dual speakers and a subwoofer
Sony has designed in some durability. They claim that the Tap 20's display is "drop-resistant" and the rubber seal around the bezel is supposed to keep water out of the motherboard.
On the software front, the Tap 20 includes Artrage Studio Pro, Fingertaps (a Sony-made app that combines drawing functions with to-do lists and reminders) and My Daily Clip app that turns the tablet into a game board.
A good-sized inventory of Sony apps are ready for download in the Windows Store including the Socialife aggregator, Music by Sony, VAIO Movie Creator and the photo and video organizer - Album by Sony.
The Tap 20 starts at $879. Fully-loaded, it will sell for around $2,500. Sony says the machine will go on sale in the US on October 26th, the same day Windows 8 launches.

EXCLUSIVE: THIRD JERSEY COULD BE FIRSTNYI considering full-time move to classic design
9:30 am – Those vintage, royal blue Third Jerseys the Islanders are debuting on Saturday? They soon could come First.
Point Blank has learned that the Islanders are looking into the possibility of their old-new classic-style sweaters being their primary uniform of choice in 2009-10, or at latest the season after that.
Speculation leads to two reasons for the decision: the Islanders want to continue to re-connect with their fan base – which has almost unanimously rejoiced over the Third Jersey design. In addition, it simply looks far sharper than the team's current Reebok uniform system.
The Islanders are holding a sale on the Third Jerseys from noon – 4 pm on Saturday at the Coliseum. Anyone buying the jersey at the sale receives a voucher for two complimentary tickets for when Monday's game against Columbus.
More than that, you may be the owner of the Islanders' primary jersey of the near future.

Big Bang Theory repeats leading into Cougar Town originals on TBS? Penny can!
Deadline reports that TBS is in preliminary conversations about saving Cougar Town should ABC cancel it. We've still got Cougar Town on the bubble, and I'd be at least a little bit more surprised to see TBS pick it up than ABC. We won't have to wait long to know its fate on ABC -- ABC announces its schedule on May 15.

Adderall, aka the "smart drug," is getting a lot of play on college student Twitter accounts during mid-term and final exams.
During a 6-month study of student tweets on Twitter accounts, BYU researchers found messages like "Adderall +School=Winning "and "Adderall Stockpile for finals" were common during the days leading up to research papers and exams.
25-year-old Dustin, a marketing major at Valencia College, says he used 15 mg of Adderall five months ago so he could concentrate on a research paper on Socrates.
"I actually got a 92 on that paper, it was one of the best papers I had ever written," he said.
Dustin says he only uses the stimulant "once or twice a year" to help him focus and he says "it's easy to get."
The symptoms:
- ADHD has three "core" levels: Inattention, hyperactivity and impulsivity.
- It affects 9.5 percent of children.
- According to the National Resource Center on ADHD roughly 60 percent have "symptoms through adolescence and adulthood"
But an investigation by Local 6 found consensus that hundreds of local college students have been taking the medicine without a doctor's diagnosis or prescription for years.
Kelly Creamer, an addiction counselor with the Choices Counseling Center in Winter Park, says students with legitimate prescriptions will "share it or sell it."
Creamer says she saw Adderall use first hand as a student at UCF twelve years ago.
"I was studying political science there at the time and I remember going into the bathroom before a mid-term exam and there were girls in there, clear as day, snorting Adderall right before the mid-term."
Fast- forward a decade later and the New York Times reports it is still happening. The story, "Drowned in a Stream of Prescriptions," found that many students will even "fake symptoms to obtain steady prescriptions for highly addictive medications that carry serious psychological dangers."
Elizabeth Traynor, the director of the Choices Counseling Center , says deception is common.
Many of Traynor's college-aged clients admit they lied about their symptoms to get their hands on Adderall.
"They look it up on line to research exactly what they need to say and then they present that to their parents and their physicians," Traynor said.
Eric, a senior Finance major at UCF says kids that use it are trying to stay at the top of the class.
" If a student gets a 95 because he used an Adderall and studied all night well, suddenly there's added pressure because teachers grade on curves, you have to keep up with the competition," he said.
UCF spokesman Grant J. Heston says all freshman are required to take drug awareness training at UCF.
"Our Health Services and Counseling Centers also offer prevention services for students as well as help overcoming an addiction," Heston said.
Traynor says a red flag for any drug treatment counselor or doctor should be when a patient asks for a drug by name.
Her center helps 50 to 60 college students a year many struggling with addictions that started with Adderall.
"I have people telling me they take ten Adderall in a day…they have the mentality that if they are doing well with one, more is best."
Side effects:
- Like any stimulant Adderall (amphetamine/dextroamphetamine), carries a litany of side effects from uneven heartbeats, emotional swings, talking more than usual, dangerously high blood pressure, tremors and chest pain.
Dr. Bruce Goldberger, Ph.D., Chief of Forensics at the University of Florida's College of Medicine, says students never seem to consider the risks of taking someone else's prescription.
Goldberger says the abuse of Adderall on campuses is "widespread."
When you share your Adderall or sell your Adderall of course, you're risking toxicity," Goldberger said. " We've seen Adderall deaths before."

A New Way to Cookby Sally Schneider
Synopses & Reviews
Publisher Comments:
A New Way to Cook is the ultimate guide to cooking for the new century. It is an inspired cookbook that embodies the way we want to cook and feel today.
For more than ten years, Sally Schneider has been experimenting in the kitchen and developing innovative techniques that maximize flavor and satisfaction in food and enhance overall well-being. Sally teaches us how to use the ingredients that were formally thought taboo, including butter, oil, chocolate, and sugar. There's no longer a need to separate foods into those that are bad for you and those that are good, into those you crave but can't have, and those you can eat in abundance but don't especially enjoy. Those categories will cease to exist.
Food is about more than just eating, and likewise, A New Way to Cook is about more than just food. Sally's ideas exemplify a new way of being and a new way of thinking, forging ahead into a new era of living where pleasure is essential to good health. A New Way to Cook is cooking simply, easily, healthfully, and with pleasure to achieve the deliciousness and joy of sharing that food is meant to convey.
"Every era must have its cookbook, and the cookbook for the early 21st century has arrived." Publishers Weekly
"This is the Silver Palate for the new generation." The New York Times Book Review
"A New Way to Cook is a sure classic." Metropolitan Home
"Here's my if–you're–giving–only–one–cookbook suggestion for this season: Sally Schneider's handsomely striped, Bible–shaped A New Way to Cook. I praised this highly in my survey of the fall's cookbooks in the New York Times; and after I write those kinds of surveys, the question inevitably arises — What did you really think? My answer is: Buy this book. Start cooking from it and you won't want to stop. That advice, I'm glad to say, has been borne out by the experiences of several friends who have reported serial experimentation since taking the book home, and serial culinary contentment." Corby Kummer, The Atlantic Monthly
"A New Way to Cook delivers on its title — a practical philosophy of food as pleasure and well–being." Real Simple
"[Sally Schneider] intensifies the flavor or her ingredients so ingeniously that her recipes scream delicious before they whisper healthy.... Just her chapters on flavor catalysts — rubs, marinades, dressings, and so on — could keep me happy in the kitchen for the next five years." Food & Wine
"A New Way to Cook is so thorough and comprehensive in its approach to cooking that it is an essential read for food professionals, not just a basic foundation for home cooks." Restaurant Digest
"Sally Schneider is the kind of cook that both professional cooks and novice cooks need. Her pure information is clear and concise, easy to follow and is not garbled with technospeak but feels like you can really cook, taste, and smell the dish. Her prose is filled with fun and accessible information that clearly elucidates tricky issues like cooking a whole fish or the use of Moroccan spices.... This book has been long in the making, and it is long overdue." Mario Batali
"Sally Schneider is one of the wise voices on the food scene in America. She has been writing about food for many years and hers has been one of the early voices to point out, with passion and eloquence, the connection between well being and pleasure. By thoroughly examining ingredients — their histories, their uses, the people who are connected to them (among other things), she has done a great deal to strengthen that connection while showing the way for people to find it for themselves and to undo some of the grave damage done by the vilification of fat and other foods. Hers is a voice that is appreciated and heard my many readers." Deborah Madison
"Sally Schneider has the breadth of knowledge, the experience, and the integrity to make an enormous contribution to the way we eat.... Sally's cooking evokes an immediate response from those lucky enough to sit in her kitchen nibbling and chatting. Her food answers an undefinable longing of stomach, heart, and soul." James Peterson
"I really do believe that [A New Way to Cook's introductory comments regarding the health consequences of eating poorly] is the single most informative discussion of the subject that I can recall reading. I was going to add, 'from a non–medical point of view,' but as I think about it, I know very few medical types who could write as clearly and correctly about the dietary impact of lipids as [Schneider] did." Vincent T. Marchesi, M.D., Ph.D., Director and Professor of Pathology and Cell Biology, Boyer Center for Molecular Medicine, Yale School of Medicine
Winner of both an IACP and James Beard Foundation award, and a main selection of the Good Cook Book Club, A New Way to Cook is filled with more than 600 recipes and a wealth of techniques, tips, and practical information. With more than 100,000 hardcover copies in print, it is 756 pages of award-winning thinking and all the deliciousness and joy food can convey.
The irresistible appeal of A New Way to Cook lies in Sally Schneider's talent for creating vividly flavored dishes that satisfy our passion for great food and our desire for balance in the way we eat. Her recipes — all standouts — are healthful, yet use all the ingredients we love, such as butter, cream and bacon. Using new and exciting techniques, she reinvents all our favorite foods. In addtion, variations amd improvisations demonstrate how to build dishes from simple elements with little effort.
Sally Schneider was tired of doing what we all do—separating foods into "good" and "bad," into those we crave but can't have and those we can eat freely but don't especially want—so she created A New Way To Cook.
Her book is nothing short of revolutionary, a redefinition of healthy eating, where no food is taboo, where the pleasure principle is essential to well-being, where the concept of self-denial just doesn't exist.

POTSDAM - As the regular season winds down with six games remaining the Clarkson University mens hockey team is still in strong contention for a first-round bye in the upcoming ECAC Hockey playoffs.
The Golden Knights, guided by second-year head coach Casey Jones and assistants Phil Roy 00 and Andy Jones are in eighth place in the tightly-packed league standings with a 6-7-3 conference mark. The Green and Gold, however, are just two points out of third place, but also only two points from falling to 10th. Led by junior captain Ben Sexton (Kanata, ONT) and senior assistant captain Andrew Himelson (Monroe, NY), Clarkson owns a 7-14-7 overall record.
The Knights, who have gone 3-2-2 since mid-January, will strive to match the level of play they displayed in two of their biggest wins of the year when they take to the road this weekend. Clarkson plays Princeton at Hobey Baker Rink in New Jersey on Friday at 7 p.m., and then takes on the new number one team in the national polls when it battles Quinnipiac at the TD Bank Sports Center in Hamden, CT on Saturday at 7 p.m.
Clarkson followed up an impressive 6-3 win over longtime nemesis Cornell in Potsdam on February 2 when it knocked off defending ECAC Hockey champion Union 2-1 on Friday at Cheel Arena. The Knights, however, were unable to keep the momentum rolling as the Green and Gold fell to Rensselaer 6-2 on Saturday.
Princeton is coming off a weekend sweep in Central NY, skating past Colgate 4-2 in Hamilton on Friday and shutting out Cornell 1-0 in Ithaca on Saturday. The Tigers, guided by second-year head coach Bob Prier and former Clarkson forward Tim Marks 10, who serves as a Princeton assistant coach, is tied for third in the conference with a 7-6-3 league slate. The Tigers stand at 9-10-4 overall. Princeton is 6-2 at Hobey Baker Rink.
Clarkson holds a decisive 73-28-5 lead in the all-time series against Princeton, which began with an 8-5 Knight victory in New Jersey on January 17, 1928. The teams are 5-5 over the past 10 meetings with Clarkson winning the last two, both in Potsdam. Seven different Knights scored in the last meeting, a 7-2 win at Cheel on November 17. Allan McPherson led the Knights most productive outing of the season with a four-point (1-3) effort.
Clarkson won the last meeting in 2011-12, 3-2, at Cheel on February 10 with McPherson scoring the winning goal early in the third period.
Princeton handed Clarkson its first shutout loss in the series with a 3-0 blanking at Hobey baker Rink on November 12 last season.
In 2010-11 the teams both skated away with a road win in the series. Princeton snapped a two-game Clarkson win streak in the series by defeating the Knights 4-3 in overtime at Cheel on January 29, 2011. Clarkson defeated Princeton 5-3 at Hobey Baker Rink on December 3, 2010.
The Knights claimed the programs 10th and last ECAC regular-season crown with a 4-3 victory over Princeton in Potsdam on February 29, 2008.
McPherson leads the way offensively against the Tigers with eight points on three goals and five assists through five games. Ben Sexton has totaled five points (1-4) through four games. Adam Pawlick is the only other Knight with multiple goals against Princeton with two. Greg Lewis posts a .913 save percentage and a 2.00 GAA through 60 minutes against the Tigers.
The Bobcats of Quinnipiac have been nearly unbeatable this season and were rewarded for their efforts when they were named the number one team in the country in both this weeks USCHO.com and USA Today/USA Hockey Magazine national polls. Guided by 19th-year head coach Rand Pecknold, Quinnipiac boasts a 21-3-4 overall record and is running away with the ECAC Hockey title with a 14-0-2 league mark. The Bobcats extended their nation-long unbeaten streak to 21 games (18-0-3) by sweeping a series on the road this past weekend. Quinnipiac handed Cornell a 4-1 loss at Lynah Rink and edged Colgate 3-2 at Starr Rink. The Bobcats are 11-2-2 at TD Bank Center. Quinnipiacs last loss was a 2-1 setback to American International in Hamden on November 6.
Quinnipiac has gone 3-0-1 against the Knights in the last four meetings to take a 9-8-1 lead in their series, which first started with a 4-0 Clarkson win in Northford, CT on February 8, 2000. The Bobcats handed Clarkson a 5-2 defeat at Cheel Arena on November 16 in their first meeting this season.
Quinnipiac took three of four points from Clarkson in 2011-12. The Knights were able to skate away with a 1-1 tie in Hamden, CT on November 11 last year despite being outshot 44-11. Adam Pawlick scored an extra attacker goal in the draw. In a wild affair at Cheel Arena on February 11, the Bobcats scored the only two goals in the third period to pull out a 7-6 victory.
Clarksons last win in the series was a 5-3 triumph at the TD Bank Sports Center on December 4, 2010. The Knights won their fifth and last ECAC Tournament title with a 4-2 victory over the Bobcats in Albany on March 17, 2007.

The romance of the South Sea Islands meets the strength of Chinese Black Tea in this tropical blend. Our classic China Black Tea is perfectly combined with the seductively sweet-tart fragrance of passion fruit, the pungent flavor of guava fruit and studded with bright yellow petals of marigold and malva for an exotic splash. Great as a brewed tea and as tea latte.

Very refreshing and delicious. I drink it strong and iced all year long.
Another Favorite!
This is another favorite of mine. I drink it iced. This tea has a lovely sweetness that is there but not overpowering (I don't drink tea with sugar or other sweeteners). It's a very refreshing, natural sweetness. The fruity flavors are really satisfying.
All My Friends request it!

About Me Health Conscious, High-End Shopper, Tea Enthusiast
I mix some regular tea bags - 2 regular to 1 Passion Fruit tea for making iced tea. My guests love it and my friends request it. We love it. When I make regular tea, my family complains that the tea has no flavor.
Love the flavor of Tropical Passion!

About Me Health Conscious, Tea Enthusiast
I drink this every day. I first started when my daughters moved to LA. I now order it on line. Everyone loves it here in NE. Best tea I ever discovered!!!
Delicious! Try it iced!
By spaceradish

I order the tropical passion iced tea all the time when I order in at CBTL, so I wanted to try it hot as well. To me, it tastes the same, maybe a little light on flavor, but if I double up on the bags or let it seep longer it's completely delicious (I like my tea flavor a bit strong). Would buy again!
Smells so Good!

About Me Health Conscious, Occasional Tea Drinker
This tea smells so good, but the flavor just doesn't come through. I served it to several of my friends and they agreed, great aroma and disappointing flavor. I'm sorry that I purchased two cans. I have since returned to another company's Passion Iced Tea.
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend

I am a vegan/feminist/rockabilly chic and love my lifestyle! Want to know more? Just talk to me.
I was born I am currently alive and I will die eventually
Ello All. ♥
I never am really quite sure what to say in this section of any of my profile's I've had on social networks... No matter what I put I feel like your never going to get an accurate depiction of who it is I am unless you really get to know me.
You can call me Sam ;) Anyways animal-cruelty has always been unacceptable to me(lifelong-passion). Whenever I hear some horrible act of animal cruelty(such as a dog been tied to a truck and dragged) I tell my self 'it can only get better if we stand together'. <--code of my life
I've always wanted to be a wildlife veterinarian, and by watching The Cove, I discovered many organizations that help animals and the environment. After about one year I discovered Peta2 and fell in love, I've been a member for almost two years now and I couldn't be more supportive and dedicated than now.
Animals are my absolute passion, I'm on peta2's Youth Advisory Board. If you're in CO, add me!
