These are the big issues, the "3 o'clock in the morning" issues, and they cannot be rushed through like a Double Jeopardy round. It is likely that they would not lead to much direct sparring between the candidates, but these questions would produce a clear view of the readiness of each individual to serve as Commander-in-Chief while also providing a reliable guide to those candidates' core convictions on the minimum military strength necessary to maintain American security in the increasingly dangerous world.
These are not the sort of questions that will earn moderators cheers from the Occupy Wall Street protesters or even from their Manhattan-Beltway media elite tribe.
But they are the key questions facing a new president, the sort of questions that President Obama avoided answering with candor and precision, much to the regret of the friends of Israel, national security and America's position in the world.

Reading specialists generally work at elementary and middle schools to help students develop their reading skills, and may occasionally work with high school students, as well.Read More...
Reading specialists often work with teachers to help them create efficient plans to teach reading skills in the classroom and may sit in on classes to carry out evaluations. They may also have to coach through classroom demonstrations, so strong public speaking skills are highly beneficial. In some positions, the specialist may have to develop the overall curriculum to aid the teachers and create reports based on its effectiveness. Knowledge of dyslexia is also important, as they may work with dyslexic students on a regular basis.
Some reading specialists provide services for multiple schools within a district, so travel between these schools may be necessary. Hours will vary, but the job is generally carried out during regular school hours. It is essential to have advanced reading and writing skills in order to effectively teach them to students. A bachelor's or master's degree in education or a related field is generally required, and some employers may also require reading and literacy certifications. There are both part-time and full-time positions available.
Median of all compensation (including tips, bonus, and overtime) by years of experience.
Reading Specialists with a lot of experience do not necessarily enjoy more money. Workers with less than five years' experience earn around $43K on average, and those who have five to 10 years under their belts see a higher median salary of $50K. Reading Specialists claiming one to two decades of experience make an estimated median of $52K. Veterans who have acquired more than 20 years report a median income of $62K, which is generally higher than the pay reported by other tenure groups.

i don't think that anyone was surprised by the results of DWTS - were they? i hope that Ms. Bush is doing ok - that has to be scary and especially given the time of year, it has to be hard. CONGRATS to carson daly and his girl. that's great news seeing as how he hasn't had the best track record with women over the years. why am i not surprised at all about the SPEIDI revelation here? we all knew that MTV was probably going to be upset that they missed the honeymoon, so this is just their way of adding it into the show i guess. you have to feel bad for kanye with all that's going on with this case. you don't want to find out that there's maybe more to it than everyone thought. i hope that he's doing ok. oooh fashion awards- i'm DEF going to have to check this one out! congrats to Cobie - :)

LeBron James understands it will take time, but he wants Donald Sterling out of the NBA - and his wife, for that matter.
The Miami Heat star said Sunday that NBA players believe nobody in Sterling's family should be able to own the Los Angeles Clippers if Donald Sterling's gone.
Sterling has been banned for life for making racist comments, and commissioner Adam Silver has urged owners to force Sterling to sell the franchise. But Silver said no decisions had been made about the rest of Sterling's family. ...

Five years ago, Kenney and another professor traveled to New York City a few days after the attacks. Several other WKU photojournalism students were also there.
The group took photos and interviewed families who were still looking to find their loved ones. Kenney says the photos serve as a reminder of the horrific events.
"When I look at my pictures, I can remember exactly what was going on, the sounds, mostly the silence and shock. I don't have a great memory and the pictures serve as a memory, for not only other people, but for me as well."
Kenney told WBKO he feels that in some way, he did his small part to help.

Area roundup: Placer soccer allows rare goal in victory over Bear RiverBy: Matthew Kimel / Journal sports editor
Brennan Entz didn't care about getting a hat trick. Coach Dave Brown wasn't worried about his team's shutout streak ending. The Placer High School boys soccer team is more concerned with the big picture. Entz scored two goals and the Hillmen nearly pitched another shutout in a 3-1 victory over Bear River at Railhead Park in a Pioneer Valley League game Wednesday. "It doesn't really matter," said Entz, who sat on the bench late like most of the Placer starters, of scoring a third goal. "A win is a win. I'm happy with two." A stingy Hillmen defense held the Bruins scoreless until the final minutes of the game. "It doesn't matter a whole lot," Brown said of the late goal that ended his team's streak of not allowing a point. "We just want to be better for the next game. We got Lincoln on Monday and we need to get something out of that so we can contend for the (league) title." The Hillmen (8-3-2, 3-0-1 PVL) had not allowed a goal since Sept. 10, shutting down their opponents for 13 straight 40-minute halves. Zach James found the back of the net for a late score for the Hillmen, who held Bear River to just three scoring chances with stout defense. Despite losing, Jacob Robinson of the Bruins (0-5-1, 0-4 PVL) was stoked to have scored against what he considered a tough defense. "It's good to get a goal," Robinson said of the game's final score, which came in the 78th minute. "… We've got a lot of improving to do." Robinson's tally, which came in the waning minutes of a contest that had already been decided, was his team's first goal in league play. Goalkeeper Patrick Dellwo made a terrific, leaping save on the Bruins' lone shot on goal in the first half. The Hillmen play at Lincoln Monday at 8 p.m., while Bear River plays at Colfax at 3:30 p.m. on Monday. Girls golf Placer 258, Center 319 — Hannah Gregg shot a 35 on the par-36 course at the Ridge Wednesday to lead the Lady Hillmen (10-4, 10-0 Pioneer Valley League) to a league victory. Madi Holm (47) and Brooke Griffin (51) followed for Placer, which plays vs. Lincoln at Turkey Creek today. Girls volleyball Del Oro 3, Nevada Union 0 — Stephanie Solich had 12 kills and Morgan Lees added 15 digs, nine kills and three aces for the host Golden Eagles (17-4, 3-0 Sierra Foothill League). Stephanie Geyer, who is about to visit West Point for a basketball recruiting trip, chipped in with five kills for Del Oro, which plays at Granite Bay Monday in a SFL match.

Any given article on our site has the meta tags for title, description, image, and keywords in the head element, but for some reason none of the news aggregate sites won't pull any of it.
http://darthhater.com/2010/06/25/friday-update-preview http://darthhater.com/2010/06/24/official-bioware-stance-on-game-testing-leaks
Not trying to post an advertisement. We really do have a problem. The share link is in the bottom right of the article with links to Facebook, Digg, and Reddit. It's too bad none of them provide debugging systems to figure out why stuff is improperly pulled into their system.
I'm thinking it might have something to do with the gzip compression of the site, or maybe because the PHP XSL parser is outputting the site as XML (I remove the start tag programmatically, but even if I set the XSL to 'html' the problem persists. I thought maybe it had to do with stripped whitespace, or the order of the meta tags (ridiculous, I know). It's a little annoying, and if I put our URLs into SEO checkers like seocentro.com it find all of the meta tags just fine, so it's obviously not a page parsing error on their end.

Basic makhani gravy, the name says it all! the cream and butter used to prepare this gravy gives it the name "makhani". It is a reddish tomato-based gravy commonly used in north indian cuisines. The sour taste of tomatoes is balanced by the use of cream. Makhani gravies are an all-time favourite on the menus of almost all restaurants; the very famous paneer makhani, will tell you why! it can be combined with vegetables of your choice too, like i have done in the recipe of subz makhani.

Sorry, a little OT here, but where in NZ do you get your Rodinal from? I have never seen anyone carry it around here
Has anything changed on importing sheet film to the US? I would really like to try 8x10. I checked Freestyle and B&H and found no sheet film. I understand there is a dealer in Japan who will send it. How are the delivered costs for this anywhere in the USA compared to FP4 and T-Max? If the price is competitive, has the dealer been reliable? Do you buy on his website? If so what is the url? If not how do you buy-communicate?
John Powers
>Acros in Rodinal is my main 120 combo. Soup it in Rodinal 1:100, 18 min, 68 F, easy agitation on the minute.
Me too, except after three or four agitations in the first minute, one inversion every three minutes. Recently, I was making my first 16x20 print from 120 Acros, and I could barely detect the grain with the grain magnifier. With Rodinal, I expose at EI 100. I've had wonderful results at EI 200 using DD-X.
have you checked with Badger Graphic or Midwest Photo Exchange? As far as I know, they both have sold Fuji Acros sheet film in the past. I got my last 8x10 Acros from Mpex. I have also purchased from Megaperls (which now goes by the name of Japan Exposures) http://www.unicircuits.com/shop/index.php
Halak 41
I prefer fomapan over it simply due to price:quality.
I like the grain of fomapan 100 a lot too, but the damn stuff stains my replenished D23 blue. I don't know if this is a problem but I don't like my developer looking like kool-aid so I'm transitioning to Acros for 100 speed. Hopefully it's a bit faster as well.
f/22 and be there.

Thank you. Looking today I did not see 8x10 on Badger's website. Midwest does have it with the warning that one should email or call to check inventory. Jim is just down the road from me, well 125 miles. I will check.
Has anyone tried Acros sheet film developed with rollo pyro in a jobo? What results?
I use it on both T Max 400 and Ilford 4&5.
John Powers
ACROS in my opinion is a stunning film. It's my 100 speed film of choice. I've gotten great results with it in Rodinal 1:50, and in Diafine. I could not get along with it in Pyrocat though and it made the images look kind of too slick and plastic like. I like some grain, and the Pyrocat really minimized it to a point where focusing under the enlarger was a problem. Diafine and Rodinal both produce some grain that is easily seen for focusing. Reciprocity is also amazing, and is great for long exposures up to 2 minutes without adding in reciprocity compensation. I find that rating it at box speed for Diafine works amazingly well and is what I use most of the time. 4 minutes in each bath at 69 to 70 F, and beautiful negs result. For Rodinal at 1:50, I rate the film at about 64 to 80 for long subject brightness ranges and develop for 11 minutes agitating once for 10 seconds every minute. For normal contrast ranges, I rate at box speed and develop in Rodinal 1:50 for 13 minutes.
Calumet currently has the best prices in the US @ $2.79 per roll.

While I agree with all you said, Adorama is currently selling 120 rolls for $2.69 and 35mm for $3.95 - and they have the 35mm in stock.
In life you only get one great dog, one great car, and one great woman. Pet the dog. Drive the car. Make love to the woman. Don't mix them up.
I've only shot two rolls of Acros and one of those in an Agfa Clack, but I find a lot to like. Very fine-grain and smooth tones.
The only negative I really can bring up is the flipside of its virtues. I generally prefer more contrast, so Acros isn't going to become my film of choice because it's look is just too mellow.
Acros in XTOL is amazing!

Former board member sentenced for drugsJanuary 17,2013A former Hartford Select Board member was sentenced yesterday at U.S. District Court in Burlington for distributing hydrocodone in Vermont. Reginald Tatro, 63, was credited for time served and received one year of supervised release. According to court records, Tatro received a package of prescription pills the Hartford Village Post Office on Nov. 24, 2010. Police obtained a federal warrant, discovered hydrocodone and arrested Tatro.
Tatro was addicted to prescription pain medication and supported his habit by selling the drug in the Hartford area, according to prosecutors. He pleaded guilty at his arraignment last year. The case was investigated by the Southern Vermont Drug Task Force.MORE IN This Just In

Variety reported last night that Watchmen co-writer David Hayter is definitely filling his plate with a lot of awesome genre goodies. Not only is Hayter getting set to direct the werewolf flick Slaughter's Road, but he's also teamed up with producer Benedict Carver to form Dark Hero Studios, a company that will generate film, TV, Internet and video game projects in the action, sci-fi and horror genres.
Beyond Watchmen, some of Hayter's other writing credits include X-Men, X2, and The Scorpion King. He's also been the voice of Solid Snake in the Metal Gear Solid video game series for 10 years now and played the character of Sean Barker in the sci-fi film Guyver: Dark Hero (which is most likely the inspiration for the new studio name).
Hayter said he hatched Slaughter's Road after he was offered a slew of werewolf movies and found enough flaws in each to never want to make such a pic; genre-savvy friends changed his mind. Production on the lycanthrope project is slated to start this summer.
As far as Dark Hero, they begin their slate of projects with Demonology, which Hayter wrote and will also be helming. It was also reported that the company will set up graphic novels, comic books, video game properties and original genre scripts in conjunction with the release of Demonology.
Hayter's Demonology grew out of his experiences attending an international high school in Japan. "It's about an American kid who goes to one of these schools in Belgium, but it brings my own horrible experiences of school to life," Hayter told Variety.
I don't know about you, but my inner fangirl is definitely stoked to see what Hayter and the folks at Dark Hero continue to line up for us genre fans.

Manchester United are edging closer to the signing of Arsenal defender Thomas Vermaelen, with the Belgian having agreed personal terms with the Red Devils, according to Talksport.
The deal is now dependent on whether the two clubs can agree a fee, with Arsenal's asking price believed to be around £10m, for a player who has just one year remaining on his current contract. The North London club are willing to allow Vermaelen to leave.
The 28-year-old has found himself out of favour at the Emirates Stadium in the last year and-a-half, with Laurent Koscielny and Per Mertesacker having struck a successful central defensive partnership. As a result, he has been looking to move on, after making 150 appearances and scoring 15 goals in five years at Arsenal.
He is set to join a Man Utd side that is looking to add new faces to its defence, after the departures of experienced duo Rio Ferdinand and Nemanja Vidic at the end of last season. Vermaelen would become Louis van Gaal's third signing since becoming manager, after Athletic Bilbao playmaker Ander Herrera and Southampton left-back Luke Shaw.

What's In The East Passyunk & Pennsport Neighborhoods?
Restaurants, Shops, Bars & Coffee Shops In The East Passyunk & Pennsport Neighborhoods
For years, insiders have flocked to South Philadelphia's East Passyunk Avenue for its restaurants, particularly its red-gravy Italian spots. The neighborhood surrounding the avenue—a diagonal interruption to Philadelphia's grid layout—has enjoyed revitalizations in recent years, creating a sort of renaissance for the thoroughfare itself.
Visitors who stroll down Passyunk (pronounced pashunk by those in the know) find eclectic boutiques, coffee shops, gastropubs, excellent Mexican and sushi fare, as well as the amazing Italian eateries that first made this street famous—not to mention the two across-the-street cheesesteak rivals, Pat's King of Steaks and Geno's Steaks. Generally, the area known as East Passyunk stretches from Washington Avenue in the north to McKean Street in the south, plus a few blocks east and west of the street.
Just a few steps east is Pennsport, a neighborhood bordered by the Delaware River to the east, 4th Street to the west, Washington Avenue to the north and Snyder Avenue to the south, though the borders are subject to debate. An area home to Mummers' clubhouses (note: Be there on New Year's Day) and historically blue-collar families, Pennsport is experiencing the beginnings of its own revitalization, complete with a healthy lineup of new bars, coffee shops and restaurants.
Neighborhood tips, itineraries and maps are available at visitphilly.com/neighborhoods.

The warehouses that populate the former manufacturing district found new life as condos, galleries, stores and restaurants, and along with newly designed buildings, the area enjoys a pleasant mix of older functional and modern design.

Oil risesComment on this story
Bangkok - The price of oil rose Tuesday, boosted by improvements in manufacturing in the world's two largest economies.
Benchmark oil for March delivery was up 26 cents to $96.70 per barrel at midday Bangkok time in electronic trading on the New York Mercantile Exchange.
The contract rose 56 cents to finish at $96.44 a barrel on the Nymex on Monday.
On Monday, the US reported that demand for long-lasting manufactured goods rose sharply in December. That comes on top of an improved housing picture and strong earnings by major companies. Many analysts think the economy's sluggish recovery will pick up stream by 2014.
China's manufacturing activity has also recently rebounded as the country emerges from its deepest slump since the 2008 global financial crisis. Analysts have all but stopped predicting that the world's No. 2 economy will have a "hard landing," or a sharp downturn.
"The news just appears to be positive and at this stage consistent with consensus or better on growth in the major economies, particularly in the US and China," said Ric Spooner, chief market analyst at CMC Markets in Sydney.
It's a big week for US economic indicators. The government will release reports on weekly jobless claims, unemployment and fourth-quarter growth. And the Federal Reserve's policy committee holds a two-day meeting that concludes on Wednesday.
Brent crude, used to price international varieties of oil, rose 2 cents to $113.50 a barrel on the ICE Futures exchange in London.
In other energy futures trading on Nymex:
- Wholesale gasoline fell 0.5 cent to $2.936 per gallon.
- Natural gas fell 3.2 cents to $3.257 per 1,000 cubic feet.
- Heating oil rose 0.2 cent to $3.056 a gallon. - Sapa-AP

Josh Junior from Worser Bay Boating Club, Wellington was 29th and then 11th in racing overnight which saw him slip from 4th to 5th place. Points are tight however, and Junior is just two points adrift of his team mate in 4th.

New York rapper G Baby (real name: Gregory Brown), 22, was shot and killed in Queens, New York, early Saturday, a representative for the New York Police Department confirmed to MTV News on Monday (March 15). G Baby was signed to longtime Jay-Z associate Memphis Bleek's Get Low Records.
Bleek tweeted about G Baby Saturday, writing, "I'm in a mood I can't explain. I lost a real n—a 2day. R.I.P. to my n—a G Baby who was like a bro to me!! G. Baby …" Before performing with Jay-Z in Atlantic City, New Jersey, on Saturday night, he tweeted again: "2nite goes out for the baby boy G. I got u my n—- see u on the other side! Thx to those who showed me love … Get Low we to strong to break!!"
Other friends of the rapper's tweeted about his death as well.
"R.I.P G BABY," Lloyd Banks wrote. "My boy*last time I seen u, we were mixing down [Banks' track] 'Beamer Benz or Bentley,' and u know who paid for everyone's food? Neva let me pay for sh–! That's the kind of n—a we lost."
"RIP 2 G Baby," Tony Yayo added.
"A! 1st and foremost RIP to the HOMIE G-BABY," Juelz Santana wrote. "We lost a good one. Everybody in Queens & Bklyn hold ya head. What up BAI!!!!"
"Life is not Promised … Live Life to the fullest, & like there is no 2moro … Lost a soldier in the field this morning … R.I.P. G Baby," Fabolous wrote.
According to detective Marc Nell, a spokesperson for the NYPD, G Baby was shot multiple times in the torso by an unknown assailant at approximately 4:30 a.m. on Saturday on the corner of Archer Avenue and 143rd Street. He had been at Club Amazura, which is located just a couple of blocks away from the scene of the crime. When the authorities arrived, they found G and another black male shot. The other man, whose name is being withheld, was shot in the leg. Nell said it is still unclear whether the man was traveling with G Baby, was an innocent bystander, or was involved in the shooting. Nell said police believe that G Baby's shooting stems from an incident that took place at Amazura earlier in the night; Fabolous headlined a concert there that ended at around the time of the shooting. At press time, Nell said the investigation was ongoing and no suspects had been named.
G Baby's official MySpace page says the rapper was from the Tompkins Houses projects in Brooklyn's Bedford-Stuyvesant neighborhood.
G Baby had been a close confidant of Bleek's. Late in February, while speaking to MTV News , Memphis was very excited about jump-starting the careers of G Baby and other Get Low artists Calico and Proof.
"I been focused on a lot of things before I got focused on [my new] album," Bleek said. "I had to think of the release of when Jay [-Z] left Def Jam, 'What I'mma do with my career? Do I wanna still be under the umbrella or do my own thing?' So of course I came with the terms, I gotta do my own thing.
"I gotta do my own thing because I got a bunch of people behind me that's waiting for their shot," he added. "I got G Baby, my artists Cali, Proof that's been down with me for years. It's time to step out."

Glad to ...I'm finally making this recipe today. Glad to see chicken stock will work okay because that is what I have. I'm stuck with ground dark meat turkey instead of pork so I think I will add some lard to the mix. I'm glad to see comments from folks (especially the Swedes!) that this is a good recipe. I trust CJ a lot but still glad to see normal folks finding the recipe works.

Regarding the holey wooden spoon, I have one of those things as well, it having come in a set. I had no idea either what that was for and it has largely lived in my drawer, neglected. CJ, your comment about how folks are always asking spurred me to hit the modern oracle, google, and check it out. So, turns out that hole is for specifically stirring risottos to get them to blend properly and also good for stirring batters. But it can also be used, as it is here, for a pokey stir-ey thing to make a sauce. philogaiahttp://email@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-7173052990851751381.post-69156234924459193272014-10-18T18:57:00.200-04:002014-10-18T18:57:00.200-04:00I want to thank you for the phenom job you are doi...I want to thank you for the phenom job you are doing with the videos and blog.D Moorehttp://firstname.lastname@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-7173052990851751381.post-8705798416881187922014-09-01T11:24:41.918-04:002014-09-01T11:24:41.918-04:00I made these yesterday using only ground beef.

And I use home made broths, so all I had was chicken, sorry (I hate altering recipes, but I hope you are ok with that, LOL).... Anyway, too good, and so easy comfort food - my daughter loved these and so did the rest of the fam!

Since you have turned both myself and a few friends into home made crème fraîche junkies, I have to ask if I can substitute crème fraîche for the heavy cream or will that alter the taste too much?

I'm making this tonight for my wife who has Italian and Swedish roots, but she normally dyes that out. After I had decided to make this, I told her and then she told me it was her little Grandma's specialty which means I have alot to live up to. No worries here though, I told her I have Chef John with me, LOL. Serving it over some egg noodles with the local "green cauliflower".

Thanks again.Ed Adamshttp://email@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-7173052990851751381.post-70249437062219624582012-12-18T01:33:40.113-05:002012-12-18T01:33:40.113-05:00Hi Chef, I'll have ya know that I served this...Hi Chef,

I'll have ya know that I served this dish over some wide egg noodles yesterday and was rather pleased with the results. Not wowed mind ya, but pleased.

And I'll also have ya know that I resisted all temptation to trick it up with a good measure of adobo even though I be the boss of my own meatballs.

Even my finicky lady-friend didn't have much complain about.

Thanks!S/V Blondie-Doghttp://email@example.com


text: Teen Charged in Teacher's Slaying Accused in New Attack Philip Chism allegedly assaulted female youth-detention staffer By John Johnson, Newser Staff Posted Jun 3, 2014 5:44 PM CDT STORY COMMENTS (23) (Newser) – The 15-year-old Massachusetts boy accused of raping and murdering his math teacher last year allegedly attacked a female staffer at his youth-detention facility, police say. The woman is apparently OK and declined medical treatment at the scene, while Philip Chism has been taken to a hospital for an evaluation, reports the Boston Globe. Authorities aren't saying exactly what happened, but WCVB-TV reports that Chism can be seen on surveillance video carrying what appears to be a pencil and following the woman into a locker room. After he began choking the woman, other staffers quickly pulled him away, reports the TV station, which points out that the scenario "bears a chilling resemblance" to how teacher Colleen Ritzer was murdered at Danvers High School last year. Chism is accused of following her into a school bathroom and killing her. He has pleaded not guilty in that case and is still awaiting trial. Phillip Chism is led into court in Salem, Mass., in this 2013 file photo.
