Anamika!! I tried this today and it turned out great. Too yummy! Thanks for the recipe.
Do you have recipes for pound cakes that can be made in a microwave oven?
Anamika Arun recreates her childhood tea time tradition with an easy microwave dhokla.
By Anamika Arun
My mom used to say, "Only when an advantage goes away, you realize its worth". How true. Growing up in the lanes and bylanes of Indian streets, overflowing with sweet shops, we never knew its worth. After all, while the weekend breakfast table was generously spread with "kachori", "jalebi" and "imarti"; the tea time was ritually celebrated with a plateful of "samosas" and dhoklas". And all it took to enjoy this lavishness was a short run by the man friday and a handful of rupees. Ahha, the days gone by!
Cut to the present day in modern, broader and cleaner lanes in not so familiar and cosy countries, the advantage of the "halwai shops" have surely flown out of the window. And that too without so much a warning, to learn those addictive treats. So while my cousins back home rarely ever attempt achieving the perfect crust of the "samosas" or wonder on how to get the fluffiest "dhoklas"; here I'm left with little choice but to learn it all the way.
Thankfully having a savory tooth, I haven't spent hours attempting many of those sweets. Rather I spent that time in fruitfully trying my favourite tea time companion – dhoklas. And with the joy of reliving that advantage of my childhood, I found my solace in a microwave recipe of Nita Mehta.
Dhoklas are basically savory cakes of chickpea flour (traditionally) which is steamed to get a fluffy texture. It occupies a real pride of place in its stage of origin – Gujrat, and loved all across the country.

Hi Sumna, I'm glad u tried and liked it. will share microwave verison of pound cake soon too!

Hey Anamika,
I tried this recipe today and found that my dhokla turned out to be quite dense, not as fluffy as it is supposed to be. How can this be remedied?
Secondly, please advise if ALL the ingredients used should be increased or decreased proportionately, if the quantity has to be more or less.
Thirdly, it would help a great deal if you could also indicate in all your recipes how many people can be served with the portions made.
Thanks and regards,
if u want soft & fluffy dhokla dont beat it after adding eno in it, just simply add 2 pouch of eno to your batter..
Hi anamika is it necessary to use both eno salt and sodium bicarbonate , when the purpose of both of them is similar?
thanks for d recipie…………
hi anamika ! u kno it didnt turn as good as it was supposed to. maybe my measurments wasnt good all the turmeric powder was floating at the top and it became all red and there was a pungent smell of eno!!! it was quite ugly if u say so and a waste of ingredients. i do wish it would be nice bcuz i was looking very forward to it

clean! Fit clean too except for the T-skirt.
January 11, 2014 BY Brendan Dunne / 4
That animal print LeBron 2 isn't the only pair of exclusives from the early years of his signature line that LeBron was recently blessed with. The man also showed off this pair of the Nike LeBron 3, which features a stark black and white colorway along with some glow in the dark touches on the laces and the soles. There's no word yet on why LeBron has suddenly decided to show off all these newly produced pairs from his earlier silhouettes, but speculation has certainly pegged it as foreshadowing for a possible LeBron retro. Let us know what you think of that down in the comments and watch for more info on Sneaker News as the story develops.

clean! Fit clean too except for the T-skirt.
the reason he puts on his old kicks is because he knows the XI are ugly. the XI are trying to do to much..... you cant have a shoe with all the tech, it just makes the shoe look ugly and not fashionable.
That LJ Crown hints to some retros, hopefully soon.

Directed by Aaron Rose and co-directed by Joshua Leonard, Beautiful Losers speaks to the collective memory of the 1990's and sheds new light on those unbeknownst to mainstream America. The world premiere of Beautiful Losers will screen on March 9, 2008 at the Paramount Theatre at 1:15pm at SXSW.
Produced by Sidetrack Films, Beautiful Losers is an intimate and moving assessment of underappreciated yet wildly influential outcasts such as Shepard Fairey, Margaret Kilgallen, Mike Mills, Barry McGee, Jo Jackson, Chris Johanson, Harmony Korine, Stephen Powers, Geoff McFetridge, Thomas Campbell and Ed Templeton. Informed by their individual experiences and the generation's "Do It Yourself" culture, these artists left an indelible mark on the worlds of fashion, music, literature, film and ironically, sports. The story of Beautiful Losers is a retrospective celebration of their contribution to artistic independence.
"The real magic lies not only in the fact that we were acknowledged, but that really, none of us were ever supposed to get there," said Aaron Rose. "This is art created by a group of individuals who, in the eyes of society, were considered outcasts. When we started making our work it was never even an option to think of having a career."
Not since Andy Warhol's "Exploding Plastic Inevitable" which is credited to helping define the psychedelic sixties has a collection of converging ideas across several mediums crystallized and later engrained itself into everyday American life. Beautiful Losers tosses the assumed divisions within youth culture into history, and with the benefit of hindsight we can get an inside look on the forces that helped shape the looming influence of the 1990's. The vignettes in the film are informal, candid, personal and revealing, giving us an insiders' look into the past, a first hand look into the present and an inspired view of the future.
Beautiful Losers will premiere at the SXSW Film Festival at The Paramount Theater on March 9th at 1:15pm and the Alamo Drafthouse Ritz Cinema on March 14th at 4:00pm.
You can find further information and watch the trailer at www.beautifullosers.com.

Shared Governance Defines Annual Plan
The past year has seen a renewed interest in appointing faculty chairs with an interest in a more robust shared governance structure to head the Campus Facilities Planning Committee and the Campus Space Utilization Committee.
Read More.
Infill Study
For the past two years, a cross-sectional campus group began studying where future development might occur on MU's core campus.
While faculty, staff and students have always played an important role in master planning and sustainability planning, this past year has seen a renewed interest in appointing faculty chairs with an interest in a more robust shared governance structure to head the Campus Facilities Planning Committee (CFPC) and the Campus Space Utilization Committee (CSUC). Committee's roles are now clearly defined, and the openness with which the committee members and administrators operate is much more conducive to making real progress toward goals.
"Since fall of 2014, most requests for moving department offices or other spaces within existing or new space has had the oversight of the new Campus Space Utilization Committee. This extra step considers faculty, staff, and student concerns and input in the decision making process," Michael Goldschmidt, faculty chair, CSUC.
First on the Campus Facilities Planning Committee's agenda last fall was to review, comment and approve the infill study as well as work with MU's master planner Linda Eastley on this year's master plan map.
"With guidance from the master planner, committee members visited sites and buildings reviewed by the Infill Study Working Group and discussed their potential for new and enhanced uses that would support the principles of the Master Plan. The committee provided additional insights and suggestions on priorities and opportunities," Brian Dabson, faculty chair, CFPC.
Finally, the Environmental Affairs and Sustainability Committee (EASC) was instrumental in assisting with the completion of the Sustainability Tracking and Rating System (STARS) report and monitors MU's climate action planning process as it relates to the American College and University Presidents' Climate Commitment.
"We helped guide the staff in preparation of the STARS report, pooling our combined knowledge of the resources available around campus, resulting in the most thorough submission we have had to date. This demonstrates the outstanding teamwork in our group," David Beversdorf, faculty chair, EASC.
Vice Chancellor Operations Gary Ward, EASC chair David Beversdorf, the MU sustainability manager and MU's sustainability consultant Meredith Elbaum will work in 2015 to clearly define the role of the EASC.
This area highlights the historic Red and White Campuses, as well as the important seam where the campus and city land comes together. Potential building sites are drawn in map view and rendered in blue with black hatching. Photographs help orient the viewer to some of these potential sites.
Academic, health care, residential and student life, and support buildings are reflected in this part of campus. The map identifies opportunities to allow expansion of these existing uses, and also shows a proposed future realignment of Hitt Street's southern block.
The Infill Study concentrates larger academic projects around East Campus Drive, with support buildings recommended along the eastern perimeter and minimal development advised for east of the East Campus Loop Road.
Intercollegiate Athletics, recreation uses, the Research Commons, surface parking and support buildings are located in this area of campus, and Stadium Boulevard has an important function as one of the primary gateways to campus.

I attempted making this using a half recipe in my breadmaker which normally makes jam quite successfully. The jam just didn't want to set. There also seems to be more sugar in this recipe than in others and a quick taste test revealed that the jam is very sweet indeed. I'm going to have to recook this and probably add some pectin.

THE Stratford Mop of 1914 appeared little changed from previous years. Wartime austerity had not yet set in and few people foresaw that the conflict would be lengthy. One of the great traditions of the fair was its roasts. No less than five oxen and seven pigs were rotating on the spits outside the pubs on the big day. The excursion trains brought their usual hundreds of revellers from Birmingham and other centres of population. None of Stratford's conscripts had yet embarked overseas, although just five days before, a regular with the South Wales Borderers, Sgt RH Savage, had been the first Stratfordian to fall victim to the war. He had been struck by shrapnel at the Battle of the Aisne and died of his wounds in Bournbrook Military Hospital.
Four years ago Ellis Holtom, of Stratford-upon-Avon, was born with half a working heart. Later, the Herald featured his condition as a tribute to the work of Birmingham Children's Hospital where he was treated. Now, to mark Congenital Heart Defect Week his mum, Vicki, updates his story. . .
ALL 326 local planning authorities in England, councils like Stratford-on-Avon District, need a local plan. The core strategy is a component of that local plan. It contains all the local district wide policies that need to be considered when processing planning applications. New development needs to satisfy local needs, helping to realise the hopes and ambitions of its communities and protect them from situations they fear. New homes and places to work should provide then with a healthy lifestyle, a pleasant place to live, good recreational facilities and above all the infrastructure that enhances their quality of life. The buzzword to describe this is 'sustainable'.
THE poor are paying more than they should be for their energy, according to damning new evidence from Stratford-upon-Avon's Citizens Advice Bureau. Prepayment meters (PPMs) are costing users in fuel poverty a "disproportionate amount" for what little gas and electricity they can afford, the bureau has found. There are around 7.2 million people on prepayment meters in the UK and several thousand in the district of Stratford. Despite Stratford's reputation as an affluent area, the bureau is being forced to come to the aid of more and more people living in fuel poverty on an increasingly regular basis.
MYSTERY surrounds the sudden and unexpected resignation of the chairman of Stratford Town Trust, John Lancaster.
Mr Lancaster has also stepped down as a member of the trust's board of trustees.
His role as chairman is being filled for the time being by Charles Bates, a former Liberal Democrat Stratford town and district councillor.
The mystery of Mr Lancaster's resignation from the multi-million pound charity has been heightened by the fact that his current term as chairman was due to expire in October, only three months from now.
Helen Munro, the trust's chief executive, remained tight-lipped about the reasons for Mr Lancaster's resignation yesterday.
But when the Herald approached Mr Lancaster directly about his resignation, he said: "In essence the executive requested a course of action, supported by a number of trustees, which I considered were contrary to the long-term interest of the trust."
When pressed for more information Mr Lancaster said he did not wish to comment any further at this stage.
Asked to comment on Mr Lancaster's resignation, Ms Munro said: "The staff and trustees of Stratford Town Trust would like to extend their thanks and appreciation for all of the hard work and support John Lancaster has provided to the trust, both as trustee and chairman.
"John, whose term of office comes to an end in early October, has decided to resign early from his position for personal reasons.
She added: "John has been a wonderfully supportive chairman and I shall miss his professionalism and calm disposition. For me the last 20 months under his leadership has been a real pleasure. We all wish John the very best of luck for the future."
Pointing out that Mr Bates had been appointed as acting chairman, she said the trust was currently seeking two co-opted trustees.
These were voluntary positions with a time commitment of approximately one to two days a month. Trustees had to live within the town boundary and the closing date for expressions of interest is 15th August.
Asked by the Herald for a fuller explanation of the reasons for Mr Lancaster's resignation, the trust said there was nothing to add to the original statement.

Video Game: Order Up
Order Up! (spelled Order Up!! in later releases) is a cooking video game developed by SuperVillain Studios. It was originally released in 2008 for Wiiware, then subsequently released for Playstation Network, the 3DS eShop, and iOS. Your character is a silent, nameless chef who drops out of a plane onto the island of Port Abello. He or she quickly finds employment at a fast food joint, but is understandably disappointed with his or her paycheck and quits, soon purchasing a broken-down diner for his or herself. As the game progresses, more restaurants are purchased and improved, ultimately leading up to the prestigious Fortified Chef competition.
Order Up! contains examples of:
- Asian Speekee Engrish: Mister Miyoda.
- Burger Fool: Burger Face
- Chez Restaurant: Chez Haute, the last restaurant in the game, is uptight and fancy, complete with condescending French waiter.
- Everything's Better with Monkeys: The final assistant chef, Mr. Jinkies.
- Excited Show Title!
- French Cuisine Is Haughty: The Chez Haute waiter's accent is no accident.
- Getting Crap Past the Radar: The Chef's Specials have slightly altered names from normal dishes. Among them, Pho becomes "What the Pho".
- Additionally, the Assistant Chefs will say short phrases when given ingredients to prepare; one of them, who's not-so-subtly a hardened criminal, goes so far as to say "Better than droppin' the soap."
- Game-Breaking Bug: The 3DS version has the unfortunate tendency to overload the system's RAM and crash if too many animations are on the screen at once, especially in the later restaurants where, not only is the scenery more elaborate, but you might find yourself cooking four or more ingredients at once..
- Gratuitous Italian: In-universe. The waitress of Stuffolini's tends to drop Italian words to the customers... and pronouncing them wrong.
- Surprisingly, though, even with the hurricane of stereotypes in this game, Gratuitous Foreign Language tropes are often averted.
- Heroic Mime: Aside from a few "Hmm!"s in the intro, the character never speaks a word.
- The Inspector Is Coming: Periodically, the health inspector will come and watch you as you wash dishes in a mini-game. Fail, and you'll be closed down for that session. Additionally, a food critic may visit; his review is mandatory for unlocking the next restaurant.
- Interchangeable Asian Cultures: There's a ninja serving as the waiter in the Chinese restaurant.
- National Stereotypes: Most of the characters.
- Olive Garden: Stuffolini's is very obviously modeled after the trope namer.
- Our Vampires Are Different: Count Steakula.
- Paper-Thin Disguise: "The Masked Judge", who runs the Chef Tip Line and appears in person during the Fortified Chef competition, is obviously the spice merchant Miyoda.
- Punny Name: Several; Tex Porterhouse, Russel Sprouts, and Port Abello itself for one.
- Regional Riff: The ninja waiter in Kung Fusion never speaks, but there is a short Japanese flute playing whenever he takes an order.
- Tutorial Level: Burger Face.
- Updated Re-release: For the PS3 and 3DS, which enhanced the graphics and added one more restaurant.

Hi everyone - new to the Forum and I've been searching high and low for an answer to my current issue: I have the Sony FWD-42LX1 LCD Monitor for my Cox HD service. As of tonight, the monitor(TV) started floating a faint purple line horizontally from bottom to top (intermittently). Is this the sign of LCD failure or something that can be removed? Or, am I just plain up Sh** Creek and have to replace it? The TV is less than a year old!!! This is my baby (my first 42" LCD TV) and I don't want to say good-bye yet... please advise. Thanks and looking forward to your answers.

Abundant OTA television is what makes this country different from all others. Lets keep it this way. If you like Wi-Fi so much, OTA fits right in. After all, it is wireless.

Sounds like a ground loop problem rather than a bad lcd. Did you change anything else in your home regarding cable, sat or something electrical (replace an appliance or outlet or something)

Join us on our podcast each weekday for an interesting story, well told, from Charisma News. Listen at charismapodcastnetwork.com.
A famously child-friendly country with a federally subsidized universal health care system that offers free fertility treatments, Israel has made it easier for economically distressed women to obtain an abortion.
The 2014 "health basket" of medical services and medications approved by Israel's cabinet Sunday includes free abortions for Israeli women aged 20 to 33, regardless of the circumstances.
The $4.6 million earmarked by the Health Ministry committee will cover some 6,300 abortions for women who cannot afford the procedure.
In 2013, almost 20,000 women received permission to abort from hospital termination committees, according to Efrat, an organization that encourages women considering abortion to have their babies.
Until now, government-funded abortions have been reserved for women younger than 19 or older than 40, and in cases where the fetus has a severe defect, the mother's life is endangered, or the pregnancy is a result of sexual abuse. If a woman believed the pregnancy would cause her harm, physically or emotionally, she had had to pay for the procedure herself.
Ruth Tidhar, who heads Efrat's assistance department, said that in a country like Israel, where mothers receive paid maternity leave and preschool education is heavily subsidized, "it gives a mixed message when contraceptives aren't funded by the government while abortions are."
Judaism does not share the Roman Catholic belief that life begins at conception, but various Jewish streams have a range of opinions on the issue. The one thing most Jews agree on: That abortion is always permissible if the mother's life is in danger.
Rabbi David Stav, the head of Tzohar, a modern-Orthodox rabbinical organization, criticized the new abortion guidelines.
In a TV interview on Arutz Sheva, Stav said it is "immoral" for the state to fund abortions that result from a mother's "personal decisions" rather than serious medical problems.
"The state (will be) allocating resources for personal decisions," said Stav that are "forbidden by Jewish law."

In the Matter of
Case No. 98 FSIP 168
Local 2149, American Federation of Government Employees (AFGE), AFL-CIO (Union), filed a request for assistance with the Federal Service Impasses Panel (Panel) to consider a negotiation impasse under section 7119 of the Federal Service Labor-Management Relations Statute between it and the Department of Justice, U.S. Attorney's Office, District of New Jersey, Newark, New Jersey (Employer). After investigation of the request for assistance, the Panel asserted jurisdiction and directed that the parties' dispute over ground rules for a successor collective bargaining agreement (CBA) be submitted to the undersigned for mediation-arbitration by telephone.
Accordingly, on November 19, 1998, I conducted an arbitration hearing by telephone with the parties' representatives. During the course of the proceeding, two of the three issues at impasse were voluntarily resolved.(1) On the remaining issue, each side presented arguments and evidence in support of its position. I have considered the entire record, including the parties' post-hearing briefs. The record is now closed.
The Employer prosecutes Federal criminal matters and defends the Federal Government in civil cases in the State of New Jersey. The bargaining unit consists of about 60 nonprofessional employees who hold positions such as secretary, paralegal, and administrative assistant, in grades ranging from GS-5 to -11; they provide administrative support for the approximately 117 attorneys in the office. The parties' current CBA, which was to have expired in 1985, has been renewed annually, and remains in effect until the successor agreement is implemented.
The parties basically disagree over whether: (1) provisions which are tentatively agreed upon during bargaining should be initialed by their Chief Negotiators, and (2) such provisions should be reopened only by mutual consent.
1. The Union's Position
The Union proposes the following ground rules:
3. d). Only the Chief Negotiator, or designee, is authorized to commit their negotiating team to agreement on a proposal. Such authority will be in writing and will be presented before beginning the negotiations. The two Chief Negotiators initialing the proposal upon reaching a tentative agreement will indicate commitments. The initialed proposal(s) will not prevent the proposals from being reopened for further negotiations at a later date by mutual agreement of the parties.
8. c). Articles signed off as completed cannot be reopened unless by mutual agreement of the parties. As articles are agreed upon, the Chief Negotiators, or his/her designees, will finalize the article by initialing and dating it at the session. Agreement on sections is tentative until the entire article is fully agreed upon.
If its proposal is not adopted, "either party will never know exactly what was agreed to." The absence of such wording could also encourage bad faith bargaining. While the Union prefers not to speculate as to whether "the signing off of a tentative agreement" is a widespread practice in Federal sector negotiations, its proposal is a standard feature of ground rules agreements where the 2nd District of AFGE is a party.(2) Contrary to the position taken by the Employer, the parties "are not buying a house," they "are negotiating a master agreement." Finally, "as a rule, either party should know" that the negotiators have the authority to bargain and to commit the negotiating team to binding agreements on proposals. Otherwise, "either party can continue to change negotiators."
2. The Employer's Position
The Employer opposes the inclusion of the Union's proposal in the final ground rules. Unless the parties mutually agree to be bound by such wording, "the ground rules should remain silent on the point." The Union's proposal is "counterproductive to an efficient negotiation." Among other things, it "will discourage tentative agreement on proposals and prolong the negotiations" because a "prudent negotiator" would be reluctant to initial off on a proposal without conducting an "exhaustive analysis" of how it might relate to other provisions not yet agreed to. The proposed procedure could also lead to discussions with numerous management officials in various components of the office on a proposal-by-proposal basis prior to final agreement, which would serve to "slow the negotiations dramatically." In addition, the parts of the proposal which would require mutual agreement before an issue can be reopened are troubling. This could embroil the parties in "tangential and unproductive" disputes over whether the ground rules permit a party to reopen a provision.
The Employer's position that parties should be able to reach non-binding tentative agreement on proposals is "imminently reasonable." This is how contracts are commonly negotiated "in our personal lives, and in major commercial transactions." Proceeding in this way "makes great sens

As to MRSA, federally-supported research is still at the mouse level. Fortunately, two private companies, Nabi Pharmaceuticals and Merck & Co., have begun testing such vaccines on humans. But get this. The Nabi program is "on hold for further clinical development pending partnership or external funding of the program."
And just what threat do the three mass-hysteria diseases pose? Ebola is so hard to transmit that it's killed nobody outside of two African countries. That said, the disease has been the subject of best-selling books like "The Hot Zone" and a film in which the virus threatens to the entire U.S. Do Hollywood and the best-seller lists influence the government funding decisions? You bet.
SARS infected only 27 Americans, killing none. Worldwide, it killed 774 people between its discovery in late 2002 and mid-2003, when it simply disappeared. SARS caused deaths in 11 countries. Yet during the disease's short life, between just two newspapers, the New York Times and the Washington Post, there were over 850 articles — more than one article per death.
Does the press influence the government's decisions? You bet.
As to avian flu, Congress has specifically allocated $5.6 billion for this disease. One influential pundit proposed spending $100 billion each year in American tax dollars on the disease.
Yet H5N1 has killed no Americans. Even worldwide so far this year H5N1 as of November 18 has caused only 72 infections and claimed 48 lives, isolated in seven countries where poultry farming involves regular exposure to bird intestines and feces. Those cases and deaths are occurring at a lower rate this year than the previous two years.
Granted, most of the fear is not over what H5N1 is currently doing but rather what it might do if it became pandemic either by mutating in just the right way or combining in just the right way with seasonal flu in a person or an animal carrying both viruses.
In fact, all of the recorded worldwide recorded deaths from Ebola, SARS, and avian flu to date combined — 2,621 — are fewer than the number of Americans who die of MRSA every two months. MRSA also annually kills more Americans than AIDS, yet the federal AIDS research budget is over 13 times larger than that for the whole field of antimicrobial resistance.
There is no perfect formula for funding disease research. But letting panic-mongers in the press, government, and even Hollywood influence the decisions is clearly wrong. We need a government that pays more attention to medical statistics than to headlines. The one we have now is killing us.

So you're an AT&T U-verse customer and you flipped on your TV to watch this month's NFL playoffs — only to discover a static screen and a message that "This channel is temporarily unavailable and we are working to return it to you soon."
You might have checked the news and learned the channel was blacked out due to a transmission fee dispute between WSVN, Miami's Fox affiliate, and AT&T.
In a box of old computer cables and orphaned power adapters, you found a set of rabbit ears, hooked them up to your flat screen TV and in the settings menu, clicked "Scan for Channels."

After I discovered the $10/pick-up load ranch in Ramona (see Ramona Holler, April 15), friends in La Mesa said they could get pick-up load for $20 in Lakeside - closer to L.M.
Hilliker's Egg Ranch, 11329 El Nopal Rd. in Lakeside is their preferred supplier.
Just curious how fellow Lakeside residents feel about the new Starbucks that opened on Wintergardens? There's no doubt that Lakeside could use a facelift, but is infusing it w/ businesses such as Starbucks the way to go?
Will River Valley Charter School achieve the highest API scores again this year? Or will El Capitan get it this year?
Well here's a little story bout the place I call home. It has a Lindo Lake, and a rodeo, casino stop. Dos Sombreros, a Dairy Queen, little Vons, and don't forget Albertos. Y'all come on down. 67 North that is!!!
Gotta love Lakeside. Can't wait to come home. Could really use a chimichonga from Roberto's right now.
Help me out here. Are the laws about living in a motorhome or trailer parked on the street different in the County from the City? Or just in Lakeside. They park across from my apartment bldg. on Vine St. for weeks, not days. Dealing drugs, drinking, fighting, and the most disgusting?? letting their "blackwater" (sewage) drain onto the street. Call the Sheriff you say? Been there..done that. The whole complex has. Anyone have another idea?
Lived in Lakeside for 3 years. Rented a shack on Valle Vista. Loved it

Reviews for Operation Lookout National Center For Missing Youth
1 person found this review helpful
Excerpt from the 2011 audit* performed by Martin Eller, CPA-Wyckoff, NJ December 15, 2012: Michael and Melody Gibson Co-founded OPERATION LOOKOUT in 1984 and their input and consulting continues 28 years later. Michael Gibson is the volunteer President, Chairman of the Board, and Head of Case Management. Melody Gibson is Executive Director of the organization and volunteer Treasurer and the wife of Michael Gibson. Michael Gibson was paid a wage of $18,394 and Melody Gibson was paid a wage of $16,979. Both Michael and Melody Gibson reduced their time in their organization and is now considered 'semi-retired'. Any compensation received by either party in 2011 is based on unpaid past due wages from previous years that was approved by the Board of Directors. Melody Gibson, Executive Director and volunteer Treasurer, is a member of the Board of Trustees of Caring For Our Children Foundation, serving as the Treasurer. Caring For Our Children Foundation gave $1050 in grants** to Operation Lookout in 2011.***
COST-ALLOCATION: The use of funds, as shown on the IRS 990 reports, reflect that a portion of the 'fundraising' cost is allocated to a 'program' element, mandated by contract. The respective nonprofit websites provide full disclosure on the IRS 990, AUDIT and PIE CHART showing distribution of funds.
Caring For Our Children Foundation's mission in 2001 was solely to raise funds for OPERATION LOOKOUT (and later included giving to other select under-funded nonprofits serving child victims of crime, poverty, and neglect). The mission has grown to include grant giving, job training, benevolence, fiscal sponsorship, and administrative assistance.
OPERATION LOOKOUT'S mission since 1984 has been singular to provide no charge crisis intervention and assistance to families whose children are missing, abducted, or runaway. Program includes but is not limited to providing case management, encouraging media and community participation and outreach, volunteerism, law enforcement and authorities liaison, and more.
The OPERATION LOOKOUT Helpline: 1-800-LOOKOUT and 1-800-771-SEEK is manned 24/7 by Kelley's Answering Service Medical Emergency Division. This generous business has contributed its professional services over 20 years to OPERATION LOOKOUT. Their representatives screen and triage any 'life-threatening situation' (asking, "What is the nature of your emergency?") Emergent callers are dispatched to an 'on-call' case manager - community volunteers have proven unable to provide this level of excellence required.
Dialing for Support - One of the business models used to raise funds since the founding of both nonprofits has been to outsource fundraising and encouraging Citizen involvement. Such promotional efforts include brand marketing, a call to action, and fundraising. Call centers are mandated by contract to provide a duel service including a programmatic element. A Public Service Announcement (PSA) such as asking for volunteer poster distribution in ones community, or telling a parent how to learn the whereabouts of registered sex predators nearby may be infused into the communication either at time of call or upon receiving a mailed packet. The call center must cover all costs with no portion of the cost falling on the shoulders of the nonprofit whether the venture is profitable or not. A percentage or revenue split of the weekly proceeds insures the nonprofit of having net, free and clear minimum income streams, insuring the organization of ongoing sustainable funds dedicated solely to 'program'. On a quarterly basis, some contracts compare cost vs income assuring the charity of no over-charges vs income still due to the charity. In recent years, the economic environment has, more often than not, cost the call centers more than their payment. Such losses are not charged to the nonprofit.
REDUCED DONATIONS: From time to time, like with any business during an economic crisis, a non-profit may downsize to a skeleton crew or delay paychecks. Timely communication and resolve follow soon after. Authorities respect and understand this financial draught.
COMPUTER UPGRADES - Occasionally a nonprofit must upgrade its computer system to avoid loss of critical data and communications from a languishing computer system. In 2012 OPERATION LOOKOUT purchased 2 refurbished computers and a scanner in response to this critical need.
* The 2011 IRS 990 and audit is available upon request by email or mail. The reports are posted annually on the respective websites. The 2011 reports were released by the CPA for public disclosure January 2013.
** CFOC was founded in 2001 to provide free and clear grants from net funds to Operation Lookout for aid in locating missing, abducted and runaway children.
Caring For Our Children Foundation provided grants to OPERATION LOOKOUT in 2007 - $45,954; in 2008 - $61,561; in 2009 - $27,805 ; in 2010 - $4,850; in 2011 - $1,050.
***The respective organizations are separate entities with different missions, different office venues, separate accounting and reporting procedures provided by 3rd party professionals to insure the public of disclosure transparency. The common thread between the organizations is the dedication of Ms. Gibson, whose heart and expertise has benefitted at-risk children and their families for many years. CFOC provides data entry and administrative assistance to OPERATION LOOKOUT, allowing it to remain focused solely on child search and case management.

Would you volunteer for this group again?
For the time you spent, how much of an impact did you feel your work or activity had?
Did the organization use your time wisely?
Very Well
Would you recommend this group to a friend?
When was your last experience with this nonprofit?
These comments are based on reports and facts, not emotions, imaginations, or personal perspectives. The figures come from accounting and CPA reports and responses are directly related to MR. AUSTIN'S FALSE REMARKS. We will note his comments as FALSE then issue the FACT. Ms. NETHERY'S FALSE remarks are addressed in the next box. It is not our goal to malign either party but solely to state the facts as they are. FALSE: The "foundation" is run in conjunction with Operation Lookout...
FACT: There is no similarity in the missions or boards of the two organizations. Melody and Mike founded both organizations that at one time shared an administration office which reduced the cost of personnel, rent and equipment. OPERATION LOOKOUT® National Center for Missing Youth was established in 1984 to assist parents in the search of their missing, runaway and abducted children –always free of charge having its own dedicated and trained staff. CARING FOR OUR CHILDREN FOUNDATION was founded in 2001 for the sole purpose of fundraising and giving grants to OPERATION LOOKOUT. A year or 2 after being founded the foundation's fundraising efforts were so successful that the funds were divided between OPERATION LOOKOUT and various other nonprofit programs and projects. It's goals were to give 99% of its net income to grants. See examples of grant recipients at www.caringforourchildrenfoundation.org. The common denominator between the two organizations currently is that Melody Gibson is the volunteer treasurer on both nonprofit boards. CFOC'S Board of Trustees consists of retired females located in different states (WA, AK, CA).
FALSE: Mike and Melody Gibson, who, each year make close to $100,000....
FACT: There was 'one' year when both parties were fortunate enough to receive not only their full annual (board approved) salary, but a portion of the unpaid back wages from previous years. Both founders and directors retired due to serious budget cuts due to economic changes. In 2012 both parties became semi-retired at their respective workplaces, and receive a limited wage per board of director's authorization and Social Security rules and regulations. In addition, unpaid back wages will continue to be paid until paid in full.
FALSE: The COCF supposedly gives advice and money to other children's charities, but the bulk of the money goes to Operation Lookout....
FACT: Caring for Our Children Foundation does not give advice, however it has an original mission of giving financial grants to nonprofits serving adolescent victims of crime, abuse and neglect. OPERATION LOOKOUT was the original recipient of the largest portion of the grants as that was CFOC'S original mission—to raise funds for OPERATION LOOKOUT. Caring For Our Children Foundation's mission expanded to include other nonprofits and it currently includes its own charitable programmatic activities within the community.
FALSE: ...and apparently into the Gibson's pockets
FACt: Mike Gibson, Head of Case Management received a salary and Melody Gibson, Executive Director received a salary, both for working full time at OPERATION LOOKOUT®. The amount received is board approved based on median wage reports, and it is publicly disclosed in each annual IRS 990 report. No wages are reported for Mike Gibson relating to CFOC and a salary is reported for Melody Gibson beginning in 2009 when she was hired to open and operate a thrift store, NXT2NU Family Thrift Shoppe located at 5612 Evergreen Way Everett, WA 98203.
FALSE & MISLEADING: On their 2010 IRS 990 forms $666,286 was raised, but $569,222 went towards fundraising, $35,510 went towards salaries and $4,850 went to Operation Lookout, leaving $56,704. Subtracting another $3,666 for payroll taxes, $21,165 for accounting services and $8,307 for bank charges leaves $23,566. In other words, only 3.5¢ of every dollar donated goes towards their cause. But their rent was $38,839, which means that not only does no money go towards their cause, but nothing goes towards it.
FACT: The interpretation is askew of accounting reality. See 2010 IRS 990 disclosures and related PIE CHART at www.caringforourchildrenfoundation.org for a cost allocation breakdown of the proceeds. READ BELOW for additional details relating to previous years. OPERATION LOOKOUT National Canter For MIssing Youth will be an annual recipient of grants so long as CFOC has net proceeds to give to it and other board selected nonprofit programs.
FALSE: This and Operation Lookout appears to be a way for the Gibsons to pay for their mortgage or their rent and living expenses...
FACT: The Gibson's have and do receive a salary that is approved by the Board of Director's of the respective organizations. A 3rd party bookkeeping service oversees the balance of past due salary and a CPA company audits the books annually. The amounts actually paid to the Gibson's is disclosed to the CPA who makes these details public in the annual OPERATION LOOKOUT and CARING FOR OUR CHILDREN FOUNDATION IRS 990 reports. Visit www.operationlookout.org and www.caringforourchildrnefoundation.org for a copy of the IRS 2010 990 Report and related PIE CHARTS The 2011 IRS 990 reports will be available in November of 2012.
FALSE: ...until both organizations' credit lines run out and they declare bankruptcy and both organizations fold.
FACT: Since the Gibson's are the respective organization(s) founders, and their hearts are in their future growth, it would just be silly to run up lines of credit for personal gain or bankruptcy. OPERATION LOOKOUT was established in 1984 and it has no open line of credit; CARING FOR OUR CHILDREN FOUNDATION was established in 2001, and at this writing it has no open line of credit. In previous years the Gibson's have placed their mortgage on the line to obtain lines of credit to keep OPERATION LOOKOUT'S doors open during times of economic drought hoping to prevent inevitable lay-offs.. Melody Gibson has made a small loan to CFOC for a Capitol Project. Those loans have been repaid by the organizations.
NOT FALSE: The governor of South Carolina publishes an annual Angels and Scrooges list of charities, based upon how much of the donations go to the charity. COCF would go to the top of their Scrooges list.
FACT: Many donors do not like the cost related to hiring professional fundraising services. The costs are steep and both organization encourage donors to become DIRCET GIVING PARTNERS whereby their gift is 100% designated as they wish to the program of their choice; no middleman expense is involved therefore their gift goes farther for the purpose intended. Direct Donations can be made online at the websites mentioned above, or by mail to the mailing addresses shown on the websites.
Both organizations appreciate that outsourcing to professional call centers means that there is always free and clear net income streams each week for their missions. The contracts require that when the recipeint of the call will allow, a 'programmatic' element is to be made. This permits the organizations to remain focused on their mission while the professional call services focus on raising funds and education and public service awareness. Visit the financial sections on the website at www.caringforourchildrenfoundation.org and www.operationlookout.org to learn more about how funds are allocated using IRS cost allocation rules.
Going directly to CFOC IRS 990 reports:
In 2007, CFOC gave OPERATION LOOKOUT 45.5K in grants; approximately 20K went to others. CFOC was generous in its earlier years until the economy took a turn forcing CFOC to change its course. The principal female board is volunteer.
In 2008, CFOC gave OPERATION LOOKOUT 61K in grants and Kenya received 25K to open and operate a new Orphan's Home. This giving kept the doors of both nonprofits open. The principal female board is volunteer.
In 2009, CFOC gave OPERATION LOOKOUT 27K in grants and Kenya's Orphans Home received 10K for facilities and overhead. In October of 2009 CFOC opened its thrift store which became a job training program work site for young unemployed parents facing poverty. The thrift store expanded CFOC'S benevolence program. The principal female board is volunteer. Melody Gibson who was given a set salary by the board of trustees to serve as the store's general manager of the thrift facility.
In 2010, CFOC gave OPERATION LOOKOUT 5K in grants and Kenya's Orphanage received 1.4K, India's Orphans received 1.4K. Because economic times have changed and Kenya's Orphans home was closed down due to civil war that endangered the young director's and children's lives, reduced grants were given. CFOC on growth of the thrift store and its job training program. Melody Gibson made a 3K loan to CFOC for working capitol. Melody Gibson resigned from OPERATION LOOKOUT in May of 2010 to dedicate time as a volunteer treasurer to Caring For Our Children Foundation and OPERATION LOOKOUT.
2011 IRS 990 will be completed in November 2012. Melody Gibson is semi-retired and her wage reflects a decrease as a recipient of Social Security. Mike Gibson is semi-retired and continues as Head of Case Management as well as continues to volunteer as OPERATION LOOKOUT'S President since 1984. Both parties receive past due wages from OPERATION LOOKOUT.
THis writing comes form the desk of Melody Gibson, Treasurer for both organizations, thus responses are regarding both organizations which are not related, but separate with different community roles and missions.
More Feedback
I've personally experienced the results of this organization in...
many fulfilling ways. Both organizations fulfill emotional and civil responses to great community need.
If I had to make changes to this organization, I would...
work harder, spend even more time fundraising. No organization should suffer economically when its mission is lifesaving.
Will you volunteer or donate to this organization beyond what is required of board members?
How much of an impact do you think this organization has?
Will you tell others about this organization?
When was your last experience with this nonprofit?
How did you learn about this organization?
Mike and I founded OPERATION LOOKOUT in 1984 as a grass roots nonprofit to assit parents whose children were runaway and missing. Soon it became apparent that countless hundreds of parents were suffering on a national leave. Many volunteers came together to establish a computerized system and office to accommodate the need at a time when missing children organizations were few and far between. Gratefully, the government has established a strong and compelling child search department and many other nonprofits have stepped up to assist with this tragic issue of missing children. Caring For Our Children Foundation was founded for the sole purpose to raise funds to assist OPERATION LOOKOUT during lean times so that no missing child case registered at OPERATION LOOKOUT would go unserved.
What is this organization's top short-term priority?
Both organizations must become or remain fiscally responsible, lean and effective at their missions.
What is its top priority in the long run?
Mike and Melody are both semi-retired and it is time for the next generation to step in and make the organizations stronger and better at what they do. Both have vital missions and both deserve life a long time after its founders leave this planet. Both organizations have been considering whom will eventually take over leadership of the respective organizations. From a personal perspective, it is our opinion that so long as there is breath and energy, whether funding is strong or reduced, the Gibson's will remain the backbones holding things together-until then.
Accounting rules require a nonprofit to clearly communicate when it allocates a portion of its budget to 'programmatic' efforts. OPERATION LOOKOUT® National Center for Missing Youth makes this distinction and has done so for many years. A duel 'cost allocation' is reported in the IRS 990 reports and annually audited Financial Statements (public documents), yet there are times when watchdog groups miss this valuable point and are responsible for passing forward 'part' of a picture. Out of respect for our donors' sacrificial dollars and volunteer support, we feel compelled to clarify.
OPERATION LOOKOUT has outsourced a 'public service outreach message' integrated with 'dialing for dollars' to outbound promotional calling centers for many years. Yet when a watchdog group or the media question, dispute, or over-look this 'coupling', the charity and call center can be misunderstood and unwittingly maligned calling the cost to be 'excessive' or 'ineffective'. These judgments take on a cyber-life of their own leaving the general public in a quandary about the 'effectual' use of their contribution.
In 2010 according to the IRS 990 report and the CPA, 53% of every dollar raised overall goes to public outreach, including where to turn for help and asking for financial support; on top of that another 44% goes to investigative missing children casework, so combined you can see this outreach benefits Missing Children more than has been perceived.
The implication that OPERATION LOOKOUT is unable to make solid cost-efficient business decisions on its behalf is a misleading notion. Refuting statements, wherever such statements appear these days, takes away time and dollars from their intended use—finding a missing, abducted or runaway child. But, some things simply must be addressed for the sake of the charity's future survival and the recovery of the children--the primary focus.
A supporter is welcome to respond over the phone or go online. 'Public Outreach' and 'Resource Development', combined, have greatly expanded the chance to find a child and provide child-search support.
Whichever method is selected, because someone called and asked for tangible hands on help, countless caring citizens pinned up a poster with missing children images on it – increasing participation—always with an intention to find the kids.
Combining two tasks in one action is as frugal and noteworthy today for the organization as it was in 1984 when the charity was founded to provide assistance to desperate families —always free of charge. How to do it quickly and to the masses has been answered by outsourcing the duty to call centers. Other than blast email, we have not found a lower cost manner of outreach these past 27 years.
OPERATION LOOKOUT®, its retired founders-Mike and Melody Gibson of Washington State, its dedicated staff and volunteers will continue to provide 'free' child-search services for desperate searching parents in the USA (and other countries) as long as the public works together with us. Any action taken to find a missing child continues to be needed, and gratitude is expressed to the many Americans taking action in hopes of a deserved parent and child reunion.

More Feedback
I've personally experienced the results of this organization in...
I have served this organization since 1984. The dedication of volunteers and staff are what makes it all happen. Since 1984, overall approximately 82% of the cases have been resolved, so you know it works when the nation works together on their behalf.
If I had to make changes to this organization, I would...
I would market the images of missing children to a much broader global audience and find a way to spend less doing so. I would influence the laws to change whereby call centers have a legal obligation to release donor lists at the end of every campaign whereby renewal of supporters would become a less expensive venture. WE must press forward regardless--This is about the kids and not our wishful thinking.

I've bought this a few times over the years because it's only $11 and because of the amazing scent. The fragrance is strong, so if you're not a vanilla hound like I am, you may not be thrilled with it.
1. For me, it works on wet hair as a detangler, although it's not my favorite.
2. If my hair is dry and frazzled, a few spritzes of this will help.
3. I happen to like black vanilla.
4. $11 isn't a bad price if you like the scent.
1. It's not super emollient, so while it temporarily helps with frizzies, it doesn't moisturize damaged hair that well, and you may need something containing more oil if you're truly dried out.
2. If you use too much at once, or use it several times a day, it can build up on the hair and make it feel stiff and crunchy.
It's not really a replacement for what I'm missing, but I'm waiting for a paycheck to arrive before I can restock on Bumble and Bumble Prep, which unfortunately costs twice as much as this.

The first day I used it I sprayed too much on and it did leave my hair feeling a little weighed down. The next use was better, I used a lighter hand. It helps detangle my 2B hair, leaves it incredibly soft, and it feels stronger. The smell is wonderful too!

I LOVE the scent of this!!!!!!!! But its use as a leave in conditioner is a no for me,my hair hates it. I tried off and on all summer using this as a leave in and every time I ended up with extremely dry,frizzy nasty hair.
So since then I've been using it a curl refresher on my natural 3b spiral curls....wich works better this way. But lately I've been noticing after I use it my hair feels dried out severely......never will be a repurchase.

Now I'm giving this product a lower score because I dont like it for its original purpose. I LOVE the smell and I cant get enough of it. but this definitely doesn't detangle. its more of a wobderful sea salt spray. it has a drying effect on the hair and it is more of a styling product. but I have noticed my hair seems more alive and bouncy over time because of this product! but it is not a moisturizing/detangling product.

This smells good but it does nothing to detangle - it left my hair dry, sticky, and clumpy. my husband used the rest of the bottle to style his short hair. it would work as a hair perfume but is that even a thing? wouldn't recommend.

I like this product. I am mixed and have 3b-ish hair. I like it because unlike most conditioners, it doesn't leave my hair feeling gross and full of residue (which ultimately makes it feel dry). It gives it some softness an smells nice. Since I don't wash my hair often, the price isn't as ridiculous (but still kind of ridiculous).

I purchases this primarily to detangle my hair post-washing. It does absolutely nothing to help with this-- spraying water in my hair would be equally effective (and cheaper). It's a 1 for this reason.
However, the small is lovely. If you'd like to refresh your hair mid-day, this is an excellent hair perfume.

I wish that I can find this item on auto-ship somewhere! I have straight Asian hair that is color treated. Love this product to help my hair stay soft and manageable. It also leaves a nice sheen,but I am in love with the Black Vanilla scent! It literally stopped me in my tracks when I walked by a sales person at a department store. Bought it at the next counter immediately and have been using since. I just spray it on right after my shampoo--comb through and go!
