iHerb Customer Reviews
not this color, it's dark brown, "Kiss my face" could mark the real color, I would choose another one
this is the perfect size to stick in your wallet or in your pocket. It has a menthol like effect on your lips and makes them feel kinda tingly and fresh. You have to make sure you dont put on too much cuz it can get a bit cakey but if you just put on one or two swipes its perfect! i like putting the Alba Botanica lip gloss on top when i want it to stay on longer :)

Don't you just hate when you type a great entry and then the computer crashes? I guess I'll try again and save this time!
It's been one of the busiest weeks in memory. Moday was for running errands in town (20 miles one way) while Dan mowed hay. Tuesday brought a day of canning. Today we had to pick up feed, meat from the butcher shop, and come home and begin the process of sausage making as well as package ham & bacon. Tomorrow we will butcher chickens. Friday we will be stuffing and packaging sausage and beginning prep for Saturday's stand. We have a big, thick field of second cutting hay to put up as well. To top it all off, we've been helping a friend move too, so it's no wonder I'm feeling a bit tired!
Also I've been trying to take more pictures, especially of the horses working and the different equipment we use. Eventually I want to put it online, but the pictures are the first step. It is a beautiful late summer day here, with temps in the lower 70's, no humidity and not a cloud in the beautiful blue sky. I went out into the field with Dan and took a few pictures of the side delivery hay rake in use. It dates from the turn of the century but still works great. We pull it with a forecart so there was an extra seat for me to ride along. It was so nice to take time and just be still while Dan drove. It gave me time to truly appriciate the biodiversity we foster on the farm by not using chemicals or planting large monoculture crops. As I relaxed, it was easy to take in the late summer wildflowers; jewelweed, Queen Anne's lace, goldenrod, Chinese lanterns, and many more I recognize but cannot name. The fencerow between hayfield and pasture was stunning in the golds and purples of this time of year. Artists know those two colors are opposites and emphasize each other, but I'm sure it was nature who taught us that. The sound of hoofbeats, harness leather and metal machienery was soothing to me, but also allowed the creatures who share our field to get out of our path. Goldfinches looked for bugs, replacing the red winged blackbirds which were so plentiful during the first cutting. Butterflies took flight before the horses' hooves to alight on the freshly turned hay behind us. A vole scurried away. Not long after I saw a small snake slithering, possibly looking for dinner in the shape of that vole! Crickets, believed by some to be omens of good luck, were plentiful, as were the lime green grasshoppers as long as my palm. If you were looking at all, they were hard to miss! The most surprising (to me) inhabitants of our field were the praying mantis. I saw both green and brown ones, but I don't know enough about these benificial insects to know if that means two seperate species, a life stage, sex difference or just a color variant. I do know that people pay money to release them into gardens to keep down bugs considered pests, so their abundance is a great thing for us and our crops. While it's easy to appreciate the majesty of a bale eagle over the farm or a big whitetail buck in the hayfield in the early morning fog, these little guys I watched today are easy to overlook. That's why I think, especially in today's world of high-speed everything, it's easy to forget the value of stillness.

The Perils of Proliferation in South Asia
Krepon, Michael, Arms Control Today
BOOK REVIEW: The Perils of Proliferation in South Asia Asymmetric Warfare in South Asia: The Causes and Consequences Of the Kargil Conflict Edited by Peter R. Lavoy Cambridge University Press, 2009, 426 pp.
Nuclear Proliferation In South Asia: Crisis Behaviour and the Bomb Edited by Sumit Ganguly and S. Paul Kapur Routledge, 2009, 251 pp.
Inside Nuclear South Asia Edited by Scott D. Sagan Stanford University Press, 2009, 281 pp.
There have been four nucleartinged crises in South Asia since 1990, and new crises could be generated by religious extremists carrying out mass-casualty attacks. Several new books on regional stability and crisis management on the subcontinent are therefore timely and well worth reading. Of particular interest are three collections of essays edited by Peter Lavoy, Scott Sagan, and Sumit Ganguly and Paul Kapur.
One point of departure for this literature is a theorem developed in the West during the Cold War known as the stability-instability paradox. Robert Jervis defined the paradox in The Illogic of American Nuclear Strategy: "to the extent that the military balance is stable at the level of all-out nuclear war, it will become less stable at lower levels of violence."1 This working definition assumed that stability could be achieved with large, offsetting nuclear arsenals, a goal that eluded Soviet and U.S. nuclear weapons strategists who kept jockeying for advantage as well as the avoidance of disadvantage, even after acquiring society-killing stockpiles. Jervis' larger point, however, was well taken and is quite applicable to South Asia: the advent of the bomb can be perceived as an insurance policy against the most dangerous types of escalation, thereby abetting mischief making below the nuclear threshold.
One of the many reasons to welcome Lavoy's long-awaited edited volume Asymmetric Warfare in South Asia: The Causes and Consequences of the Kargil Conflict, is Jervis' revisiting of the stability-instability paradox through the lens of Kargil, the high-altitude, limited war between India and Pakistan that occurred at the instigation of a small group of high-level Pakistani military officers in 1999, the year after both countries carried out nuclear tests. Jervis' new formulation is that "[strategic stability permits if not creates instability by making lower levels of violence relatively safe because escalation up the nuclear ladder is too dangerous."2
Achieving strategic stability, however, may be even more difficult for India and Pakistan than for the Soviet Union and the United States. After experiencing harrowing crises over Berlin and Cuba, Moscow and Washington tacitly agreed not to play with fire in each other's backyard. Their strategic competition then played out in more out-of-the-way locales, where missteps were severely punished by proxy forces. The locus of Indian and Pakistani competition, on the other hand, is the contested back yard of Kashmir, where Western deterrence theory has now been introduced to the agendas of jihadi groups such as the Lashkar-eToiba and the Jaish-e-Muhammad.
India's and Pakistan's quest for strategic stability should, in theory, be facilitated by their endorsement of "minimal" nuclear deterrence. Yet, as former Indian Minister of External Affairs Jaswant Singh likes to say, "minimal" is not a "fixity." Deterrence requirements for India must be calculated with China as well as Pakistan in mind, and no two legs of this triangular stool are equal. Moreover, both the Indian and Pakistani governments have publicly embraced doctrines of massive retaliation. India has adopted a no-first-use doctrine; Pakistan has not, due to its conventional military imbalance with India, which has led Pakistan's security apparatus to rely on unconventional means to keep New Delhi off-balance and to tie down large numbers of Indian troops in Kashmir. The Pakistani army is now carrying out a punishing and partial offensive against those who once were its allies, which is why more mass-casualty attacks in urban centers are a sure bet. …

. . .The Florida Comprehensive Assessment Test is crowding too much else out of our schools, which soon might be turning out students whose only real achievement is passing the FCAT.
The test's weaknesses were revealed earlier this year when it was found that many, if not most, of the people hired to grade it were not even certified in their subject area.
Davis, refreshingly, calls for ending the FCAT's chokehold on our schools. He would keep it as an evaluative tool, but expand the criteria for evaluating schools while dropping the dreaded grading system. He wants students who get their tests back to be able to use them for understanding where they are.
Crist seems to like the FCAT as it is, although under pressure has been modifying his stance, as he has done on a number of key issues lately. . .
"A child's learning is the function more of the characteristics of his classmates than those of the teacher." James Coleman, 1972
. . .a pupil attitude factor, which appears to have a stronger relationship to achievement than do all the "school" factors together, is the extent to which an individual feels that he has some control over his own destiny. James Coleman, 1966

Masvingo Vacation Packages
Harare, Zimbabwean's capital, is about 160 miles (257 kilometers) to the north of Masvingo.
For a truly authentic Zimbabwe vacation, make sure you also look beyond Masvingo and explore the scenic and cultural delights that the region has to offer. Head less than 1 mile (1. 6 kilometers) south from Masvingo to Masvingo, where you'll find the Kyle Game Park and Great Zimbabwe National Monument.
Take the time to really understand Zimbabwe by researching its past. A great way to begin is with a visit to the area's historic ruins.
If you enjoy mixing with like-minded travelers, Masvingo has plenty of specialist activities such as wildlife safaris and guided nature walks.
Learn about the different food options in Zimbabwe by sampling the regional dishes and drinks. You'll see that milk and collard greens are regularly used components in typical local meals. Taste some popular menu items including delele (okra made with baking soda) and dovi (chicken and peanut butter stew). Those who who are not quite satisfied, should try sticky toffee pudding, a great way to complete your Zimbabwe culinary experience. Invigorate yourself with a the regional brew. Bohlingers is popular here.
When the time comes to say farewell to Masvingo, head to the nearest major airport situated in Bulawayo, 140 miles (225 kilometers) away.

Embarrassing Arrests Mar China's Ivory Win
Posted by: Bruce Einhorn on July 16, 2008
Yesterday the Chinese government won a big victory over environmentalists, with the UN giving China permission to become one of two countries engaged in the legal trade of ivory. (Japan's the other.) Activists working to protect Africa's elephants are livid, saying the move will make it easier for smugglers to transport ivory illegally to Chinese consumers. For instance, according to Sky News, Robbie Marsland, the director in Britain for the International Fund for Animal Welfare, says "Allowing new ivory to be imported into China will stimulate demand and create a smokescreen for illegal ivory to be laundered into the legal market."
The British government, which voted with the majority to allow China's entry into the ivory trade, has defended its move by pointing to progress by Beijing in controlling smuggling. Here's British Wildlife Minister Joan Ruddock, as quoted in the Independent: "China has shown itself willing to crack down on illegal ivory trading and we expect them to continue to do so."
Who knows, maybe she's right. Maybe allowing China to import ivory from elephants killed legally, in efforts to control herd populations, will help fund conservation programs in Africa while also depressing prices on the black market by expanding supply. And maybe the Chinese government, which has been struggling for years to crack down on all sorts of counterfeiting and smuggling, will manage to succeed in the fight against the illegal ivory trade.
Maybe. But environmentalists probably have a point that giving the OK to Chinese ivory imports will for now just boost demand in China and make illegal ivory trading even more lucrative. And in an unfortunate coincidence, less than 24 hours after the vote in favor of China's ivory traders, the world got a reminder that ivory smuggling into China remains a major problem, despite talk about a crackdown. This morning, police in Kenya arrested two women about to board a flight to China for allegedly trying to smuggle 36 pieces of ivory out of the country.

INA, Ill. (Aug. 6, 2014) – The DuQuoin State Fair will kick off with a flavorful boost from Rend Lake College's Culinary Arts program this month.
Culinary Arts students, staff, and volunteers will join hands with other local businesses to serve a four-course meal for local and state dignitaries at the DuQuoin State Fair Opening Day Media Dinner on Aug. 22. The dinner kicks off the two-week-long fair.
Jeff Fairbanks, Rend Lake College Culinary Arts Instructor, said the four courses will include an appetizer, soup or salad, entrée, and dessert, all prepared with local produce and meat. Each course will also be paired with local wines. Some of the local businesses involved are Seasonings Bistro in Benton, Uncle Joe's BBQ in Ina, and Pheasant Hollow Winery in Whittington.
"The Culinary Arts program has participated in past years with this event, and we stress to our students the importance of getting out there and doing exhibitions like these," said Fairbanks. "Our volunteers will also be helping out with some food and wine demonstrations on August 29. It should be a good experience for everyone involved."
During the dinner and subsequent demonstrations on Aug. 29, Fairbanks, Culinary Arts Lead Instructor Robert Wilson, and the other chefs will perform a short presentation about how the food was prepared and why. The first week of the fair traditionally focuses on local produce, and out-of-the-area vendors visit during the second week. The fair lasts until Sept. 1.
"We were contacted this year and asked to bring some students to help with the dinner preparations and demonstrations the following week," said Fairbanks. "There will be all sorts of people there, like the Mayor of DuQuoin and maybe Governor Pat Quinn. The bands might also eat that night, so we might be serving Foreigner too."
To check out the RLC Culinary Arts program at the DuQuoin State Fair, visit the Expo Hall on the fair grounds. A full list of events will be posted to the fair's website at www.agr.state.il.us/dq. For more information about the RLC Culinary Arts program, call 618-437-5321, Ext. 1714.

'The thing about remembering is that you don't forget'
(CNN) -- Thank you for your service.
We say those words more frequently now -- when we see men and women in uniform at the airport, when we accept a paper poppy from a veteran at the supermarket, when we sit next to a member of the military at a ballgame.
Thank you for your service.
It's a nice gesture,
true, but small. We say it, but then most of us go back to the rest of
our lives. It's a volunteer military these days, after all; we don't
have to serve, and we don't have to remember.
So we don't have to think
about the bitter cold of the Ardennes in the Battle of the Bulge. We
don't have to think about the steaming, confused jungles of the Vietnam
War, a war whose 50th anniversary is now being commemorated. We don't have to think about IEDs, and up-armored Humvees, and downed helicopters.
We don't have to think about the sacrifices. But we must.

Just what I needed.
Overnight stay for Heathrow in the morning
Very friendly and efficient staff at reception upon arrival.
The room was spotless with nice contemporary décor. Well equipped with a well lit bathroom - shower stall only. A bath would have been good, but the shower was nice and powerful in a large-ish stall. Despite the hotel being on the flight path and located on the A4 the room was fairly quiet so we got a decent night's sleep. The restaurant had a choice of a limited menu or buffet - we went for the buffet. It was okay but nothing special... felt like a bit of a canteen. We would definitely stay again but the restaurant needs improving to match the quality of the rooms.

U.S. Investors Brace for a Third Bailout in Greece
(SAP - Get Report) and Siemens (SI), domestic German names like Hugo Boss and ProSiebenSat and, interestingly, Italian risk. He says he would avoid French risk and remains relatively cautious on Spain. Deutsche Bank commodities analyst Michael Hsueh, meanwhile, notes that commodities have performed strongly over recent days leading up to the second Greek bailout. Hsueh argues that with the deal out of the way, contagion risk in the euro area will subside and attention will move back towards commodity fundamentals. That could mean further gains for oil prices "with U.S. consumers likely to be more resilient to higher gasoline prices today than in 2008."Others on the sell-side are cautious on equities, however, without even taking Europe into account. For example, Citigroup U.S. equity strategist Tobias Levkovich on Tuesday said in a research note that he sees a fairly low probability of market appreciation due to the disappointing momentum of earnings revisions. "Earnings estimate revisions are not supportive of the stock market surge," Levkovich wrote. "Typically, there is a tighter relationship between earnings and the S&P 500 and the divergence is worrying in the short term." Levkovich did not alter Citi's year-end target of 1,425, and he says that the near-term concerns with ongoing bullishness for 2012 and buying on weakness makes sense rather than chasing the tape. For those investors still worried about Europe, though, it seems the question is whether the second Greek bailout solves the crisis or whether it's just another successful delay in extending the crisis indefinitely. Given how often Greece has been in default or restructuring, it seems to be that the latter is a smarter bet. -- Written by Robert Holmes in Boston. >To contact the writer of this article, click here: Robert Holmes.Although that is not enough for Credit Suisse to raise weightings to "overweight," Garthwaite says he would continue to be a buyer of the German DAX, specifically mentioning companies like BMW, Bayer, SAP

Continuing on with my education, I graduated from The City College of New York with an ME and BE in Electrical Engineering. After starting work in the aerospace industry in 1965, I worked for the Bendix Guidance and Control and the Kearfott Guidance and Navigation companies. I spent 44 years in Guidance Engineering for the US Navy Fleet Ballistic Missile program. My career concluded with a two year stint as Program Manager for the Inertial Reference Unit used on NASA's Solar Dynamics Observatory satellite launched in 2010. My wife Mary Ann, a media specialist(librarian), is now retired. I retired in January of 2009. We have two children and two grandchildren.

The new line, replacing roar with whine, hasn't found a place on the 21st century Hit Parade, but we've all heard versions of it. This latest wail was inspired by the latest feminist cause celebre, an Atlantic magazine cover story titled, "Why Women Still Can't Have It All." The article (and the controversy) by Anne-Marie Slaughter, a 53-year-old onetime star in the Obama constellation, has gone viral.
She was the first woman to be director of policy planning at the State Department, and she dropped out after 18 months to return to a more leisurely tenured professorship at Princeton, where she can spend more time with her family. Now she can teach, write articles, work on a book, make 40 or 50 speeches a year, appear regularly on radio and television, and not feel guilty about neglecting her children. Ah, for the velvet-lined rigors of academe.
What precipitated her return to the hearth was a troubled and troublesome son, 14, and his 12-year-old brother, whose weekday care had been left to their father, a tenured Princeton professor. Mom commuted on weekends from her day job in Washington. She rediscovered the wheel of maternal misfortune and decided that a teenager can be more complicated than politics in the Middle East, and her 14-year-old son's "rocky adolescence" required more attention than the rocky affairs of state.
By the eighth grade, he was skipping homework, failing math, disrupting classes and dissing every adult near home or school. No maternity leave was available for dealing with that, and teenage emergencies required her to make several unexpected train rides back home, "invariably on the day of an important meeting."
Her return to domestic tranquility was assisted by Princeton rules of tenure, which she would automatically lose after two years of working elsewhere, even for Barack Obama. Her solution sounds like a commonsense compromise with its own rewards, but it has set off a ferocious debate among the feminist elite: "Say it ain't so!"
Her problems aren't those of her foremothers, as depicted on HBO's hit "Mad Men," how women in the 1950s couldn't succeed in advertising without acting like men. She understands that her cushy choices hardly resemble those of her less fortunate sisters, the single mothers who have trouble finding a job or are supporting an unemployed husband. Not many working wives get a sabbatical year in Shanghai, as she did, with her family, so the children could learn Mandarin.

Mod Note (Andy): #TBT Throwback Thursday - this was originally posted on 10/1/12.
I occasionally get PMed by people at colleges I've never heard of before, asking if they have a shot at IBD.
Folks, why IBD? The finance world is broad and varied, and there are a million ways to make a buck. Why pick the one that's going to be hardest for you in your situation? There are mutual fund companies, asset management companies all over the damn place. Hedge funds. Auxiliary businesses. Those folks will look beyond the name of your institution and your GPA in the hunt for quality. Why knock on the door of the one section of the industry that has built a massive recruiting machine designed to keep you out?
Time for me to share what is potentially the biggest career mistake of my life.
Mod Note: Throwback Thursday: this post originally went up on 8/22/12.
The most common arguments on WSO are about what it really takes to make it to Wall Street... and then what your options are if you get there. Working professionals come here to engage in witty banter and relax, only to spend half our time here debunking bullshit and writing advice based on our (limited) personal experiences.
How can we cut to the chase and give these kids hard data on which to base their life decisions, as well as save ourselves some time so we can get back to important things like ass and titties?
The answer came to me as I was googling a few ex-coworkers from a long time ago, just to see how they've been doing and whether I've done better or worse (something people do far more than they'd like to admit). The data is out there.
TBT: Originally posted August 2012
One of the biggest problems with having large corporations as clients is that there's so much crap you're not allowed to invest in actively in order to prevent any potential allegations of insider trading. There's also a bunch of rules and paperwork that, honestly, few bankers have time to keep track of.
As a result, a lot of bankers just stick their money in ETFs (or a nice piece of Hamptons real estate) and forget about it. (I admit it, most of my money's in ETFs right now.)
But let's face it, we all know that you haven't made it until you pay more in capital gains tax than in ordinary income tax. Passive investment is boring and is largely for betas and scrubs whose 401(k) is their largest source of liquid capital ( psssh!).

This is all representative of commonsense (but ultimately bad) advice I got during undergrad and followed blindly during internships. I sorted it all out by the end of my analyst program, but this was frequently accompanied by discomfort, late nights, and general suck.
You might disagree with my stance here. In fact, if you do, feel free to tell me in the comments. I'd very much like to hear that there are workplaces where the following work habits are rewarded rather than punished.
This is sometimes a recipe for disaster. The earlier you finish, the more time your boss has to second-guess everything. If you know your boss will iterate until the last moment and beyond, it often pays to build in a small amount of downtime for yourself. The finished product will be just as good (or bad), and you'll be slightly more rested for the next shit show they throw at you.
Good general principle, but don't be dumb about it. It's nice to accept projects and workstreams up front from a wide variety of people so that your big workload is evident to all. This reputation can last a lot longer than the workload itself, giving you a chance to pick good projects and do well on them. On the other hand, use this reputation to parry anything likely to turn into a fire drill.

Interviewer: "So... what's your biggest weakness?"
To be honest, I think the biggest weakness question is one of the most bullshit questions you can get during an interview. But people keep asking it, so you've got to have a strategy. There are some shops/industries where the best strategy is truth. In most banking/PE interviews, not so much.
My favorite way to answer the biggest weakness question is to imagine the interviewer at their job and think about what they would relate to most strongly. Then I build an answer starting with, "I get impatient/frustrated when...."

Guys, I'm back from four days spent recruiting at our top targets. Thought I'd share with you how a ballsy college junior with a 3.2 GPA and no internships who met me at an employer information session was able to skip straight to final rounds.
That's right: she figured out how to skip the resume screen, the phone screens, the first-round OCR, and the rest of the process we design so carefully to weed out all but the most competitive talent.
First, she was tidy, friendly, and professionally-dressed. She waited for the first wave of post-session aggression (see my last post for a description of the EIS hustle) to ebb away. She then stepped right up, shook my hand, and said, "I need advice. Could I have a moment of your time?"
Mod Note (Andy): Throwback Thursday: this was originally posted 6/11/12
There are some segments of the economy in which it takes a douchebag to drive value. (This is unfortunate, but empirically observable.) And Auntie Bankerella is worried.
See, over the years I've seen douchebaggery decline little-by-little, both on WSO and in my work life. You young monkeys currently entering the prime of your douche years are just not as douchy as we were back in the day.
I'm not saying it's your fault. Few people achieve their full potential of douchiness naturally; it's something most of us learn by emulation. Which means my generation hasn't properly schooled you guys.
Mod note (Andy): Throwback Thursday - this originally went up Aug 2012 while most of you were still playing jv hopscotch. If you haven't read Bankerella's posts, go through each and every one of them now, they're fantastic. fwiw this post also went up on CNBC. Enjoy!
Okay, today's advice comes with a dirty little secret.
One thing a banker girl (or any 20-something single chick working 80+ hours a week in a stressful environment) needs is the ability to occasionally have some fun with with very little advance notice and with no strings attached.
(Sure, the perfect girl is a bastion of sexual morality and never dates anyone casually, but that's just not relevant here.) So as a banker chick, you need to get maximum hedonic return on the few hours you have left to yourself, and let's face it, those hours aren't enough to gently nurture a budding but delicate relationship. You need to be strategic about how you use that time, so you need to find people (or a person) who can do the same.
If you're reasonably hot, you'll have no lack of candidates for the role. It's like a resume screen: you need to apply some sort of quick initial test to focus in on candidates who are more likely to be rock stars.
So here are my rankings, based on my own experiences and the experiences of a few friends.
Mod Note (Andy) - Throwback Thursday - this originally went up July 2012
A while back I mentioned that during the two years of my MBA program at a top-5 school, I'd put a star next to every note I took that I thought was worth carrying forward into my future career.
When I moved on, I threw away the 18 handwritten notebooks, but not before compiling all the starred stuff into a document. Depending on how you look at it ,you could say this document cost me nearly a quarter million dollars (not including opportunity cost). Disappointingly, it is only 11 pages long... and that's double-spaced.
A couple people have since written asking me for the document. It's a pretty personal list, so I can't do that. But I will share a few juicy tidbits here.
Mod note: "Best of Bankerella" - this was originally posted 6/22/12
Do you want to go to a top b-school? You should have a 99th percentile GMAT.
This is hugely controversial. I have no idea why. If you're already assured of getting into your top school because you're so awesome or your dad's name is on one of the buildings, go ahead and flame me. This post is not for you. If you already got into your top school with a sub-99th percentile score, awesome -- but this post is not for you.
If you currently lack certainty around getting into your top school, here's why you need a 760+ score:

absolutely and french kissing the best way
I believe a good kiss can make or break a great relationship...
The only way I would accept a bad kisser is if he is a foot lover. :)
hugs are free too.
I revitalized an relationship once with a long hug.
sohis can definitely lead to kisses!
Oh yes, long, slow, deep, soft, wet kisses that last three days!

Sneaky Pete, the Wiley Wolf, Sighting
We had been concerned about the lone wolf, Sneaky Pete, who visited the Homestead so long, as we hadn't seem him for some time. We had a report a few weeks ago that someone thought they saw him, but not sure.
Sunday night, cousin Pauline Tackett's border collie began barking frantically, unlike she had ever barked. Pauline then heard a loud, ferocious snarling and ran out on her back porch with flashlight.
Wednesday, Dec. 8
• Century Culture Club, 12:30 p.m., Mary Ann's Restaurant.
• The Avena Township Park Board will meet in the St. Elmo Community Park and probably will put up the Christmas decorations in the park and the Centennial Building.
Thursday, Dec. 9
• The Lunch Bunch will meet at noon at Mary Ann's Restaurant. They will have a $10 gift exchange and the gift should be for either a man or woman.
Churches combine to present cantata
Immanuel (Augsburg) and St. Paul Lutheran churches of Shobonier and St. Peter Lutheran Church of St. Peter will present a Christmas cantata called "Child of Hope" this weekend.
With combined voices from the three congregations, plus audience participation, the cantata expresses in new as well as familiar music the real message of Christmas – the birth of Christ.
The Altamont Zone of the Lutheran Women's Missionary League recently collected food, toiletries and other items to be donated to Concordia Seminary students and their families at the St. Louis campus.
The following congregations participated: Holy Cross Ladies Society, Vandalia; Immanuel Ladies Aid, Shobonier; St. Paul Ladies Aid, Shobonier; St. Peter LWML/Ladies Aid, St. Peter; Immanuel LWML and Immanuel Ladies Aid, Altamont; St. Paul's Ladies Aid, Blue Point; Bethlehem Ladies Aid, Altamont; Zion LWML, Altamont; and Salem Ladies Society, Salem.

EL DORADO HILLS — Patience and heads-up base running aided Ponderosa 9/10s in its 16-5 victory over Gold Rush in the District 54 All Star Tournament at Mitchell Field Monday — called after four innings.
Ponderosa stayed alive to face Folsom American while Gold Rush was eliminated.
Logan Schweizer and Cole Spangler each singled to start the first for Ponderosa, and Schweizer scored on a wild pitch by Gold Rush's Jared Taylor. Casey Tattersall singled to score Spangler, and Hayden Grevelding's liner into right later scored Tattersall. Two more runs came in for Ponderosa as they took an early 5-0 lead.
Trailing by five, Gold Rush came right back in the bottom of the first. After Ryan Gines scored on a wild pitch, Colby Maitland scored on Luke Masloskie's infield single. Two more runs scored on wild pitches, and Gold Rush pulled within 5-4.
Neither team got a runner past first base in the second, and the score remained the same headed to the third. Grevelding singled to right with one out, but Taylor worked a ground out and a fly ball to end the inning.
Tyler Forner, who came in for extended relief in the first inning, matched him pitch-for-pitch. Maitland and Taylor singled back-to-back to start the bottom of the third, but Forner struck out the next three batters to end the frame.
Ponderosa took control in the fourth. Spangler's ground out scored Williams and awareness on the basepath coupled with multiple wild pitches from Gold Rush helped Pondo stretch the lead to 13-4.
Ben Imbsen singled to score Grevelding, and Ponderosa added two more runs to cap off the huge inning. Maitland singled to score Matthew Hemmenway in the bottom of the fourth for Gold Rush to answer but that was it.

31 year old woman | Anchorage, AK, United States | Seeking men 25-35 within 50 miles
Call me, maybe?
I am intelligent, kind and fun and I am looking to find someone with the same qualities to spend time with. I am the quintessential Alaskan girl, and I love playing outside and going on adventures. Loyalty is very important to me. If you are a passionate and fun guy, get in touch with me. I really value intelligence and common sense. I stay abreast of what's going on in my community and the world around me; I expect the same from my partner. I am a natural leader, but do not want to take the lead in a romantic relationship. I am traditional in the way that I am totally cool with established gender roles when it comes to dating and relationships. I love to cook and entertain. I love hanging out with friends and family. My favorite weekend activity is to get out of town and do something fun. While I love getting dirty and having fun outside, I also like to dress up for a nice night out. I am pretty outgoing and easy to get along with. I don't take myself too seriously and like to have fun. My ideal partner has a steady career, is handy around the house and mechanically, likes to have fun, is kind, self-aware, and loyal. I like the manly man type... he shoots guns, hunts, fishes, rides motorcycles and snowmachines... that sort of thing. A great sense of humor is also a must. One must be able to keep things lighthearted. I have a successful career, own my own home and have a great family. A great man is really all that's missing from my life. I have a lot to offer. Looking forward to meeting some great guys. Cheers.

Overall, the changes are deceptive. They look small at first, until you really stop and think about them. The biggest changes are also a little baffling, but not necessarily bad. You can't really expect sweeping changes two builds in a row, so it's really not terribly surprising that prot didn't get the big review we've been waiting for to date. On the whole, the changes aren't anything to get worked up over, but they do seem to be heading towards a desire to balance threat generation, and so I applaud them even if I don't think they were entirely successful.
I've dithered enough: on to the changes, concealed from view behind the jump.

Back when Fidel Castro was a younger man, trying hard to overthrow the mustache-twirling Fulgencio Batista and declare Cuba free from his tyranny, an American named William Alexander Morgan apparently helped him with the cause.

32 Tasting Notes
175 Tasting Notes
not spectacular but elegant and Aubertish - fully mature, I would not wait longer, at peak - light but seamless with everything in balance - my best Kongsgaard yet - perfect with molecular cuisine at Commonwealth - 96
Bee's wax, pear rind, honeysuckle. Elegant from top to bottom.
Stunning. Shocked me on the first sip. Beautiful wine.
Tasted at Wine Advocat event - A matter of taste. Medium yellow. Expressive and complex nose of vanilla, oak with lots of white fruit, nuts and other aroma. Multidimensional on the palate as well combining freshness and aromatics. Hefty price tag though.
Probably the best Chardonnay in all of California. In all of the US. This is amazing. Richness, flavorful, crisp and balanced. This will get better over time. 95+

For Earth Scouts this month, we're going to make cards to send to wounded soldiers (we're working on the Human Rights badge). Does anyone know of any picture books (appropriate for 5-8 year olds) that would go along with this?
Mommy to Colwyn, 10/03 ~ Lachlann, 8/05 ~ Fiona, 6/08 ~ Niall, 5/10
All Those Secrets Of The World by Jane Yolen is the first thing that pops to mind for me, but I'm not sure it's exactly what you're looking for - it's about a kid whose father goes to war during WWII. I don't recall any wounded soldiers (and the focus isn't actually on soldiers at all), but it is humanizing of soldiers and their families, and overall a pretty sweet book. It's also a FIAR book, if you wanted to include some activities directly related to the book.
I looked at another picture book about a soldier during WWI, but it's pretty upsetting, and the soldier dies in the end, so it probably wouldn't be appropriate for the younger or more sensitive kids. But I can try to find the title if you want.

This is SO good! One of my favorite snacks now. Thanks!
Rating5/5 (from 2 ratings)5
2 cup macadamia nuts
1 teaspoon sea salt
1 cup onions , diced
¾ cup water
Recipe Directions
In a vita mix, blender, or food processor (best results from vita mix) blend macadamia nuts, water, and salt until smooth and creamy. Start with 3/4 cup water and add more only if needed (up to 1 cup) to make mixture blend. Keep this thick as you can and make sure it's as smooth and creamy as possible when done.
Remove from vita-Mix and add in the onions by hand. Mix gently and chill.
Note: make sure to add the onions in by hand after the blending.
Andrealeduc's ThoughtsBy andrealeduc
Even better than the real thing!! just had to share. Really great with rye bagels, or with raw veggies etc. Inspired by Alissa Cohen's "Living on Live Foods."

Andrealeduc, just had to tell you, not only are you a beautiful person but your teeth have to be envy of all who know you!!! The onion dip sounds delicious and I will be making it... Thanks for the recipe!!!
Does anyone know if you can use pine nuts for this?
I mix cashews and macadamias.
I agree with you ambikalee. And they are so darn expensive too! Anytime a recipe calls for them I use cashews or brazil nuts instead and it still turns out great. I used to eat onion dip with potatoe chips so I guess I would have to make Alissa's potatoe chips for this. I normally make my onion dips by making my raw sour cream which is cashew based and puttin in the spices and onions - tastes like the Deans Sour Cream Onion dip. So I am sure cashews would work well for this recipe too.
ok, new to this site, does it show? haha
edited the recipe, the recipe amounts are good now!
Btw, mac nuts are hard to find, if you do find some, they should be refrigerated.
I serve it with raw veggies, or rye bagels, which I guess I will post the recipe for also! This dip really tastes like the real thing so serve it with whatever you usually fancy onion dip with
ok I think I goofed on the amounts...didn't enter the water properly..only use 1/2 a cup to 3/4 cup!!!!sorry
Why are raw mac nuts so darn hard to find?
Thanks for submitting this. DO you usually serve it with particular dehydrated chips or vegetables?

The note looks correct to me. It should be impossible for the (NULL VAL) branch to be entered, since if VAL was NIL an error would've been signaled for (< -1 VAL 7). You need to reverse the order of the tests. -- Juho Snellman

Complex Calculations on Academics
Published: July 16, 2002
(Page 2 of 2)
In the first category, Edison calculated that the percentage of its students who passed various criterion-referenced tests increased by an average of 5.7 percentage points annually for the seven years it has been operating.
Edison then calculated the other urban districts' annual increases using the districts' test data. It found that only 15 districts — out of 41 examined — had gains of three percentage points or more, and that none surpassed Edison.
In the second testing category, Edison determined that on norm-referenced tests, the scores of its students increased by an average of 4.7 percentage points each year. Here, Edison examined the publicly available test scores in 23 large districts and found that only 5 had average annual increases of more than two percentage points. None matched Edison's gains.
Again, Edison's analysis was troubling to testing officials who examined it at the request of The New York Times. For one thing, the officials said, in calculating the scores of its schools, Edison combined results on tests from different testing companies.
"If you throw oranges and grapefruits and bananas and star fruit into a blender," said Mr. Robertson of Cleveland, "you've lost all ability to say whether it's fruit anymore."
Dr. Chubb, the Edison executive, disagreed, comparing the method with a high school calculating a student's grade point average by combining scores from different teachers who might not agree what constitutes an A or C.
He added that Edison faced a challenge in trying to analyze the performance of students spread across 22 states, each with its own standards. "What we've done is perfectly reasonable," he said. "It's not like there's a canon to follow."
Edison's critics have relied on two main studies of its performance: one published in December 2000 by the Evaluation Center at Western Michigan University in Kalamazoo, and the other conducted in the late 1990's by researchers at the Miami-Dade County public schools.
Each study generally found that students in Edison schools did not outperform those in more traditional schools. The authors of both studies acknowledge, however, that their conclusions are based on data from a limited number of schools — 10 in the Western Michigan study, and only one in the Miami study.
In the end, those trying to judge whether an Edison education is worth its sometimes high price will have to wait at least two more years for a definitive study being conducted for Edison by the Rand Corporation, a public policy research organization. That study will compare thousands of Edison students with their counterparts at more traditional public schools.
"It's a little frustrating to me that we can't provide useful information earlier," a senior Rand researcher said. "Policy makers and the public have to make decisions about Edison today."

I'm celebrating and I'm never quitting, no resignation
Lyric Meaning
Okay, let's do a quick breakdown of the amount of times Iggy has quit in her life.
Oh, wait. She never quit, you say?
Oh, yeah…
To struggling in a poor family as a kid, to her messy relationship with Interscope Records, to critic after critic scrutinizing everything about her image, persona, and testing her talent as an artist… Iggy has never stopped working.
Guess it's time to celebrate.
