On a spear fishing trip to Guadalupe Island, Mark Healey got bored swimming with Great White sharks. Needed something to get the heart rate going. So to spice things up, he rode them. Like the pasty Nebraskan couple clutching Flipper's fin at Oahu's Sea Life Park, he rode them. Floating, away from boats or cages, he'd wait for a shark to pass under him, and then grab its dorsal fin. Five second rides on the back of the most feared animal in the sea.
Some surfers golf. Others blog. When Mark unties his work boots after a day of surfing, he moonlights as a shark whisperer. A spear fisherman. A skydiver. A Hollywood stuntman. Big wave legend Evan Slater says Healey's "the most un-scared surfer on the planet.
Mark claims that he does get scared, but it's clear from watching him at Waimea or Maverick's or the Outer Reefs that his threshold is a few notches higher than most. Which is why, as the limits of what you can ride and pull into are pushed, Mark plays a key role in big wave surfing progression. He stands his ground when a set blacks out the horizon.
The crew Healey rolls with—Long brothers, Twiggy, Ramon, Kohl Christensen—is a tight knit group that take responsibility for the advancement of big wave surfing. They hold each other accountable on big days. They take jabs. You won't go. You won't pack that. So when Healey holds his ground, as he does, so do the rest. And of course they go. Of course they pack that. Healey is the spark that lights big wave fires.
Enjoy Mark from a safe distance with your cell phone ready to call 911.

Moisturizing is one of the most essential yet underrated parts of a basic skincare regimen. While solely washing and drying your face may seem appealing from a time-saving perspective, leaving the house with your skin unprotected can do significant damage over time. Moisturizers ensure that your skin stays hydrated throughout the day. The botanicals in skyn ICELAND Moisturizers will help you to achieve healthy and moisturized skin without the use of harmful chemicals. Whether your skin is dry, oily, aging, stressed, or irritated, skyn ICELAND Moisturizers can help you attain a fresh appearance and healthy skin.
While most dermatologists recommend the regular use of moisturizers, they also caution against using products with potentially harmful ingredients. With skyn ICELAND Moisturizers, you can feel comfort in knowing that your skin is being nourished by natural ingredients from Iceland's beautiful landscape. The ingredients in skyn ICELAND Moisturizers are specially chosen to nourish skin, reduce signs of irritation, and lessen any indications of stress or aging. These natural botanicals will help your skin to absorb water from the air around you, ensuring that it remains healthy and conditioned throughout the day.
Moisturizing with fresh and trustworthy ingredients is integral to nourishing your skin and fostering the healthiest complexion possible. All of the formulas developed as part of the skyn ICELAND Moisturizers line will pamper your skin with botanical ingredients, reducing the potential for irritation and improving your skin's health.
Stress can deprive your skin of oxygen, moisture, and nutrients. If you experience dry skin or are showing signs of premature aging, try skyn ICELAND Antidote Quenching Lotion to give your skin a much-needed boost. This lightweight lotion will hydrate and enrich your skin, reducing the signs of stress that build up over time. Yeast extract, Icelandic kelp, and chaparral extract work to reduce visible signs of stress and aging by nourishing tired skin and refining your skin's texture. Butterfly bush, thyme extract, and white willow bark help to prepare your skin for environmental elements by soothing irritation and protecting your skin.
Because you encounter fewer environmental aggressors while you sleep, using a night cream is a great way to intensively moisturize your skin. While you sleep, skyn ICELAND Oxygen Infusion Night Cream will rejuvenate stressed, irritated, or dull skin. The formula includes micro-encapsulated oxygen to restore and strengthen your skin's tone to optimal levels so that you wake up feeling refreshed. Vitamins A, C, and E improve the health and appearance of your skin, contributing to a more radiant tone and texture.
Harsh weather can drastically damage skin, leaving it dry, chapped, and damaged. Likewise, some dermatological procedures and surgeries can cause lasting irritation. The almond oil, oat extract, and vitamins A, B, and E in skyn ICELAND Pure Cloud Cream will calm stressed skin and provide the intense conditioning your skin needs to heal.

On July 16, 2002, the Commission on Security and Cooperation in Europe held a public hearing entitled "Property Restitution in Central and Eastern Europe: The State of Affairs for American Claimants" on the status of property restitution, with a particular focus on claims in Poland, the Czech Republic, and Romania. This was the Commission's third hearing on the issue of property restitution; previous hearings were held in 1996 and 1999.
In his opening statement, Commission Co-Chairman Rep. Christopher H. Smith (R-NJ) acknowledged that "Central and East European governments have done much regarding property restitution that is commendable." Smith noted that "governments seeking membership in Western institutions want to be perceived as reform governments by passing a private property restitution law. . Upon closer examination, however, one finds lackluster the implementation of the laws" as well as serious rule of law problems and discriminatory citizenship requirements that continue to impede restitution and compensation efforts.
Commissioner Rep. Joseph R. Pitts (R-PA) expressed the need for countries addressing problems created by the legacies of fascism and communism to "address all pertinent issues and cases, including claims of those individuals or families who may fall between the cracks of current laws."
According to Commissioner Rep. Benjamin L. Cardin (D-MD), barriers to restitution and compensation dealt the survivors of the Holocaust a second tragedy. In response, he made clear that "we will not stop until all the OSCE states treat property restitution in a serious way by having effective laws to compensate for illegally confiscated property."
Commissioner Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton (D-NY) expressed a need "to constantly be creating an atmosphere in which these claims are viewed as appropriate, legitimate, and justiciable." She stressed "the rapid restitution of assets that were stolen during that horrible period is a critical step towards achieving some measure of fairness." "As the countries of Eastern and Central Europe consider reforming their property restitution laws, they can look to the United States as a leader in considering the restitution of World War II era property," Senator Clinton concluded.
Rep. Joseph Crowley (D-NY), a member of the House International Relations Committee, urged the Bush Administration to ensure that progress on property restitution claims be considered as a component for European Union membership. Rep. Crowley's remarks focused on the lack of a private property restitution law in Poland where he stated "as many as 170,000 property owners and their heirs still wait for legislation that will restore their rights." He also noted that "the protection of property rights is a basic requirement for all democratic governments that operate under the rule of law."
Witnesses reiterated two themes throughout the hearing: the protection of property rights as a requirement of democratic governments and the need for states to recognize their responsibilities to resolve outstanding restitution claims.
The first witness, Special Envoy for Holocaust Issues at the U.S. State Department, Randolph Bell, said the U.S., in its diplomatic relations, emphasizes that restitution processes must be clear, straightforward and non-discriminatory. Countries are encouraged to adopt broad legislation that provides restitution for the variety of claims which are being made.
Mr. Bell remarked, "in joining the Euro-Atlantic mainstream and applying for membership in organizations, [Central and East European states] are seeking to join a community of values." He outlined the following principles that these states should bear in mind when addressing property restitution:
Mr. Bell emphasized the common goals of the legislative and executive branches in pursuing these issues. He recommended Congress and the Administration continue to encourage Central and East European states to enact addition legislation to allow greater property restitution and to hold the governments of those states accountable to the public declarations they have previously made.
The second panel of witnesses was comprised of Israel Singer, President of the Conference on Jewish-American Claims against Germany and Co-Chairman of the World Jewish Restitution Organization; Yehuda Evron, U.S. President of the Holocaust Restitution Committee; Mark Meyer, attorney and Chairman of the Romanian-American Chamber of Commerce; and Olga Jonas, economist and member of several non-governmental organizations addressing issues in the Czech Republic. These witnesses' statements revealed broad dissatisfaction with the current status of restitution efforts.
Israel Singer reported that many East European states had "enacted restitution legislation with cut-off dates with the effect, whether intended or not, of restricting the rights of Jewish communities and others with legitimate claims to reclaim their property." He emphasized the critical importance of timeliness in resolving restitution claims by stating that Holocaust survivors are dying at a rate of 15 percent per year. Singer urged the Commission to pursue three goals: first, to follow his "report card" on countries' efforts toward restitution and to insist on greater accountability for any shortcomings. Second, to question why NATO allies allow property restitution to be used as an excuse for anti-Semitism within their borders. And third, to reiterate to these allies that resolution of property restitution issues is not only a material obligation, but also a moral obligation.
Yehuda Evron's testimony focused on restitution in Poland where, Evron said, "Efforts to return property to former owners have been uneven, and often unsuccessful or worse, discriminatory." Like Mr. Singer, he reiterated the dire need for resolution of these claims and declared the efforts thus far to resolve American claims in Poland a failure. Evron noted the law on restitution which the Polish Government is currently crafting will reportedly offer a symbolic monetary compensation to the rightful owners rather than actual return of confiscated property. Describing why Holocaust survivors will not be satisfied with symbolic compensation, Mr. Evron explained, "We survivors lost all of our families. The homes that are left are the only thing left from our family. There is no money in the world that can compensate for this house, and we don't want any money."
Mark Meyer described the property restitution situation in Romania. Mr. Meyer, an attorney with extensive experience representing property claimants, acknowledged Romania's efforts in passing a restitution law, but criticized the law for having "so many exceptions to the overall principle of in-kind restitution that in fact it is not providing very much in the way of in-kind restitution at all. Instead it offers restitution in the equivalent." Meyer described the claims process as a "procedural morass" and a "bureaucratic meltdown" because of the multiplicity of obstacles facing claimants. Meyer recommended that Romania broaden in-kind restitution. When in-kind restitution is not feasible, he suggested that long-term bonds be issued rather than cash compensation. He also argued for the inclusion of personal property restitution in any amendments to the Romanian restitution law. Meyer noted the importance of Romania rescinding Law 112 of 1995 which currently allows tenants of seized property to purchase that property, thus further complicating return of the property to the original owner.
Olga Jonas testified concerning property restitution in the Czech Republic. Ms. Jonas criticized Czech policy on the return of confiscated properties as being intended "to directly benefit communist and former communist functionaries who have acquired these properties or who hope to acquire them in privatization." Ms. Jonas enumerated several particularly egregious restrictions on property restitution including the disallowance of restitution to "all persons who are not considered Czech citizens by the Czech Government, to legal persons, and to those victims whose Nazi-confiscated assets were to be returned by the 1945 restitution laws but [which were not actually returned] before the communist takeover." She noted the U.N. Human Rights Committee's multiple rulings that by denying U.S. citizens the right to restitution of confiscated property the Czech Government has violated the non-discrimination requirement of the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights.
Two days after the hearing, Co-Chairman Smith hand-delivered a letter to Polish President Aleksander Kwasniewski during a meeting with congressional leaders in Washington, stressing the urgent need for a non-discriminatory law governing restitution or compensation of private property confiscated from individuals by the Nazi or communist regimes in Poland. In response, President Kwasniewski underscored Poland's good will in tackling this problem, which he characterized as more difficult in Poland that some other countries because of post-World War II border changes. He said he expected to have a draft law ready by the beginning of next year — one that would not include any citizenship restrictions.

The impending arrival in Washington of Uzbekistan's President Islam Karimov has focused even more attention on deepening U.S. engagement in Central Asia. U.S. Government officials have pledged to press Central Asian leaders for progress on human rights and democratization, as security-related assistance to the region increases significantly. Questions about Washington's leverage now and in the foreseeable future as well as the prospects for improving the dismal human rights situation in the region will be discussed.

Car ignites; 6 occupants get out safely
Published: Wednesday, February 6, 2013 at 6:48 p.m.
Last Modified: Thursday, February 7, 2013 at 9:39 a.m.
OCALA -- Six people, including four children, escaped unharmed Wednesday when the vehicle they traveling in caught fire, according to an Ocala Fire Rescue official.
The driver of a 1995 Buick Park Avenue told Ocala Fire Rescue officials that she was driving on North Pine Avenue when people driving next to her vehicle told her that the car was on fire.
The woman said she pulled into a parking lot in the 900 block of North Pine and everyone was able to exit the vehicle without any injuries.
Assistant Fire Chief Brian Stoothoff said the fire started in the vehicle's engine compartment.
The vehicle, valued at around $2,000, was considered a total loss, officials said.
It's unknown what caused the fire, Stoothoff said.

Our skin is the body's largest organ and serves to protect our insides from the harsh elements outside. As such, it takes a daily beating, sometimes leading to skin conditions that require special care. Treatment options abound, including clinically-designed formulas to tackle conditions like athlete's foot, rosacea, eczema, psoriasis, bodily acne, perpura, spider veins, wrinkles, age spots, diaper rash, jock itch, skin abrasions and ring worm. Formulas are also available to relieve discomfort caused by arthritis, swelling and carpal tunnel syndrome, as well as to mask scars and post-laser erytherma.
You can smooth your way to a slimmer silhouette with formulas designed to firm and tighten skin, plus inhibit the growth of unwanted hair in areas you want to keep smooth and hairless. And don't forget about the sun—over time, UVA and UVB rays break down the collagen in the dermis, leaving you with wrinkly, tough skin. Fortunately, there are now salves and solutions at your fingertips. Available in sprays, gels, lotions, creams, butters, sticks and medicated pads, treating those troubled areas has never been easier.

(Washington) - The United States Helsinki Commission will hold a hearing with individuals representing families with lost relatives from the periods of conflict in Kosovo in 1998 and 1999.
Missing Persons in Southeast Europe, Part 2
Thursday, September 18, 2003
10:00 AM to 12:00 Noon
334 Cannon House Office Building
Sheremet Ademi, Chairman, Mitrovica-based NGO "Memory" and Kosovar Association of Families of the Missing. He also advises the United Nations Mission in Kosovo on issues relating to missing persons. Three members of his family were missing, but they recently have been identified.
Nesrete Kumnova, President, Gjakova-based NGO "Mothers Appeal." Eight members of her family are missing, including one son.
Agron Limani, President, "26 Marsi 1999," an association of families based in Krusha e Vogel where 70 percent of the men over age 16 were abducted. Limani has 11 missing family members, including his father and brother.
Mehmetali Perolli, Head, Gjakova-based Office of the Imprisoned and Missing People, where 667 persons are still missing.
According to the International Commission on Missing Persons, as many as 40,000 persons are unaccounted for a result of the decade of deadly conflict in the former Yugoslavia beginning in 1991. Mass graves continue to be uncovered, while people still seek information from government offices on lost relatives. In some cases, efforts to find the truth about the unknown fate of loved ones have brought together individuals representing different ethnic groups.
The Helsinki Commission will hold a hearing on one aspect of this issue, with testimony by Albanians who themselves have missing family members in Kosovo. The panelists also represent organizations consisting of other families sharing the same tragedy and grief. A similar panel of Serbs who lost family in Bosnia-Herzegovina, Croatia and Kosovo testified before the Commission on August 1, 2003.
An un-official transcript will be available on the Helsinki Commission's Internet web site at http://www.csce.gov within 24 hours of the hearing.
The United States Helsinki Commission, an independent federal agency, by law monitors and encourages progress in implementing provisions of the Helsinki Accords. The Commission, created in 1976, is composed of nine Senators, nine Representatives and one official each from the Departments of State, Defense and Commerce.

All the animals fit carefully inside. These animals are made from a variety of beautiful woods and are 7/16" thick. The giraffe is 3 1/4" tall, and Noah is 2" tall. This ark is handmade by a skilled German craftsman who now lives in the USA. He uses 16 different types of wood in this set and includes a letter detailing which kinds of wood was used for each animal. The wood is rubbed with certified non-toxic mineral oil to preserve the wood. This set makes a wonderful gift for a collector or a toy for a child at least 4 years old who does not put toys in his/her mouth. Small animals are a choking hazard. This is an heirloom quality toy which will be enjoyed for years and years. Due to the incredible detail on the animals, some wood sections are quite thin. This is really meant for an older child or very gentle child. USA.

Additional Information
About ADIMLocated in Central America, ADIM is a small microfinance institution with a strong social focus. In the saturated microfinance market of Nicaragua, ADIM stands out for its emphasis on the holistic development of women as well as its provision of responsible financial services. Founded in 1989 by a small group of Nicaraguan women, this institution has remained true to its initial goal of providing its clients (90% of which are women) with an opportunity for economic growth, in addition to personal and professional empowerment. Supporting an ADIM borrower means contributing not only to the continued offering of the socially conscious services it provides, but also to the sustainable growth of a truly unique microfinance institution.
This is a Group Loan
In a group loan, each member of the group receives an individual loan but is part of a larger group of individuals. The group is there to provide support to the members and to provide a system of peer pressure, but groups may or may not be formally bound by a group guarantee. In cases where there is a group guarantee, members of the group are responsible for paying back the loans of their fellow group members in the case of delinquency or default.
Kiva's Field Partners typically feature one borrower from a group. The loan description, sector, and other attributes for a group loan profile are determined by the featured borrower's loan. The other members of the group are not required to use their loans for the same purpose.

Purifying and deep cleaning your body is the first step to achieving healthy skin. Our bodies are constantly coming into contact with dirt, dust, sweat, oils, bacteria and other environmental pollutants, which can irritate our skin if we don't wash these elements off daily. Cleaning the skin is also important for the removal of dead skin cells that naturally and continually shed from the skin's surface. Women have about a 25 percent smaller collagen layer than men, resulting in thinner skin, and for this reason, most cleansers designed for women are slightly gentler (and more aromatic) than those specifically designed for men.
Some body washes contain cleansers and exfoliants in one, and most contain conditioners and nourishing ingredients to prepare your skin for after-bath hydration and moisturizers. Be sure to choose a body cleanser that is right for your skin type, whether you tend toward dry, oily or combination skin, and keep in mind that your skin can vary with the seasons and even hormonal changes.

Approximately 97 percent of all of the water on Earth is contained in its oceans, making the sea the primary source of most of the moisture in the air. Just as the ocean's water hydrates the atmosphere through evaporation, the seaweed and other marine botanicals found within the ocean can have a remarkable effect upon the moisture levels in your skin, particularly when found in products that use high quality preparations of algae and combine them with supportive ingredients. The Thalgo Moisturizers collection is one the highest quality lineups of moisturizing treatments available on the market due to the use of marine botanicals.
To offer products for women of all skin types and tones, the Thalgo Moisturizers range includes an array of formulations. Despite their subtle differences, all of the items in the Thalgo Moisturizers collection have natural, botanical and marine plant extracts at their cores. The products found in the Thalgo Moisturizers collection are formulated to deliver the maximum amount of hydration deep into the skin tissue without clogging the pores, creating excess oil or leaving behind a shine.
For the ultimate in luxurious hydration, look to the products in the Thalgo Moisturizers collection. Each of the skin healthy formulations featured in the line restore your skin's moisture levels to battle dehydration without over moisturizing and causing oiliness or clogged pores. The secret to the balanced effects of the moisturizers made by Thalgo are their ingredients, which are derived from marine plants.
Thalgo Marine Collagen Cream couples deep moisturizing effects with the added benefit of strengthening skin tissue to battle signs of aging while eliminating the dehydration that often makes fine lines and wrinkles worsen. The nutrient-rich moisturizer is appropriate for normal and dry skin types and uses collagen sourced from marine plants to supplement the levels of the protein found naturally in your skin tissue.
Thalgo Delicious Comfort Cream offers relief for skin that is tight, red and irritated through its blend of moisturizing, natural ingredients. Shea butter oil serves as the primary emollient in the formula, restoring moisture levels and imparting vital lipids into the tissue. Borage oil offers additional hydration, while also helping to fight signs of aging. Wild rose oil rounds out the cream by promoting speedy healing at the cellular level.
Thalgo Wrinkle Control Smoothing Care is proven to help slow down the effects of the aging process on mature skin. A proprietary blend of plant extracts called Moist 24 form the core of the formula, which assists with collagen production to help strengthen and tone the skin to eliminate wrinkles.

Good news for those with coarse hair - it's healthy hair. Your cuticle - your hair's protective outer layer - does a fine job of locking in moisture and makes your hair naturally shiny and strong. Sure your hair is thick, and maybe curly, and probably downright disobedient sometimes. Coarse hair tends to poof because it's wiry and isn't a fan of lying flat. But with a little tender loving hair care, you can turn your coarse coif from fiery to fabulous.
To bring out the best in your tresses, get a professional cut. Ask around to find a stylist who specializes in cutting coarse hair. It is an art, and an experienced beautician will be able to thin and shape your hair to best complement its texture and personality. In other words, the stylist will work with your cowlick, not try to tame it. Or layer your kinky curls so expertly that you can shampoo and go, instead of spending an hour with products and a flat iron. A perfect cut is the foundation for easy-to-care-for hair.
Your coarse hair will be moisture-rich as long as you follow these cuticle care commandments. Do not wash your hair every day. Instead, use an ultra-hydrating shampoo and then wait as long as a week before washing it again. Here's why: excessive washing disrupts the cuticle, making its shingle-like layers stand up and unable to lock in moisture. Your hair ends up looking frizzy and feeling rough to the touch. By waiting days between shampooing, you're allowing the natural oils of your scalp to coat your hair shafts.
Try a dry shampoo product in between washings to absorb oils and impurities so that your hair looks clean and feels fresh. Condition every day to detangle. If you have tight ringlets, use a lightweight leave-in conditioner to create soft and shiny curls. For coarse hair that is wavy or straight, use rinse-out conditioners that first saturate the hair shaft. And lastly, to give coarse hair an extra sheen, finish it in style with oil-infused products including moisturizing serums, nourishing pomades or shine sprays.
Because coarse hair is prone to snarling, your go-to beauty tools must be tender to tendrils. Start with a wide-tooth comb or pick and keep it in your shower. It's easier to comb your hair when it's wet because your cuticles are flat and the comb won't snag hair. When choosing a brush, opt for an ionic detangling variety to seal the cuticles so hair shines instead of standing on end from static. Air drying is best, but if you're in a hurry, use a tourmaline-infused dryer because it's designed to cut drying time in half while locking in your hair's moisture. Styling irons come in wet to dry versions allowing you to dry and then straighten or curl in one step. Look for irons with tourmaline technology - hair stays hydrated and gleams. To maintain the natural oil balance of your coarse hair, limit blow drying and ironing to no more than two times a week.
Coarse hair can be commitment, and if you are tiring of the daily routine of conditioning and taming, then consider professional treatments that are easy to maintain and will last for months. Braiding and cornrows can be simple or elaborate works of art. To minimize dandruff and hair loss, make sure to carefully shampoo the braids and oil your scalp. Before embarking on a chemical treatment, make sure you choose a skilled stylist who can explain the formulations and their related precautions and costs. For loose, tousled curls, salons offer a body wave perm. And if you're ready to embrace glassy-straight locks, decide between thermal reconditioning, keratin treatments and relaxers.
You hear it every time you visit the salon - "You're so lucky you have thick hair." That's high praise from professionals who know the extreme challenges of thinning and damaged hair. So remember to nourish that magnificent mane by eating, exercising and sleeping well. Protect it from the sun with SPF hair products and fabulous hats. And have fun experimenting with accessories like decorative barrettes, ponytail holders, headbands and feminine combs and sticks.

This soup is hearty and delicious and could not have had a better reception when served for dinner. This will become a regular recipe for our household!
Broccoli-Cheese Chowder
From EatingWell: Winter 2004, The EatingWell Diabetes Cookbook (2005)
This satisfying remake of broccoli chowder benefits from the creamy texture of cooked potatoes and smooth, tangy reduced-fat sour cream instead of getting its richness from as much as a cup each of cream and cheese. Not only is the flavor vibrant, but a single serving gives you over half of the daily recommendation for vitamin C.
94 Reviews for Broccoli-Cheese Chowder
The recipe calls for 8 oz of broccoli and I wonder whether that is 8 oz by weight or volume. I used a measuring cup rather than a scale, but it could have used more - maybe I should have done it by weight!
I made a double batch, so I would have some for the freezer, so I subbed half parmesan and half cheddar (not reduced fat). I also subbed chili powder since I had no cayenne, but the soup was pretty bland. Will spice up the remainder when it comes out of the freezer on a cold night.
This is a REALLY good chowder! I didn't have any cheddar so I used mozzarella and I added a pinch of red pepper flakes since I was out of cayenne pepper and it was just fine, a nice heat to a creamy and full tasting chowder.
In making the dish, it was a lot of stirring or the bottom of the pot will stick and that is never good, so you have to be very attentive. I love the way the flavors blend and it has a creamy taste due to the Yukon gold and onion base. I loved this chowder and will definitely make again (even with all the stirring).
I added Turmeric to the recipe about a 1 1/2 tsp. A little more garlic and added more salt. You need to taste the recipe as you go. I started with a low sodium organic vegetable broth. For a "wheat free version" I used corn starch and instead of onions I did leaks, a bit of green but mostly the white. It was good and then I added the sour cream and cheese which made it awesome. It is a great recipe to experiment with. As the vegetables tenderized, I also used a blender. It turned out to be a nice thick soup. Perfect for a rainy day!
Great soup, even my husband likes it! I followed the recipe and added a few more dashes of dry mustard. I don't think the potato makes it "grainy" or "mealy" as other reviews stated -- I think it helps thicken it perfectly. I tasted it before adding the cheese and it was a bit plain, but after the cheese & sour cream got mixed in it was wonderful! Will definitely make it again in the near future.

(Washington) - Eight members of the United States Helsinki Commission have urged Slovak Prime Minister Mikulas Dzurinda to change the Slovak health care system to ensure that sterilizations of women are not performed without informed consent; institute legal changes that will guarantee patients' rights to their medical records; and allow independent expert medical testimony so that individual victims of wrongful sterilization procedures may pursue their cases in court.
Their letter follows the conclusion in late October of a Slovak Government investigation triggered by reports alleging that Romani women, including minors, in Slovakia had been sterilized without informed consent. It was signed by Helsinki Commission Chairman Rep. Christopher H. Smith (R-NJ) and Co-Chairman Senator Ben Nighthorse Campbell (R-CO), Ranking Member Rep. Benjamin L. Cardin (D-MD), Commissioners Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton (D-NY), Rep. Joseph R. Pitts (R-PA), Rep. Louise McIntosh Slaughter (D-NY), Rep. Robert B. Aderholt (R-AL) and Rep. Alcee L. Hastings (D-FL).
"We believe that there were significant deficiencies in the Slovak Government's recently concluded investigation into this matter," the Members wrote. "[C]onflicts of interest were not adequately addressed; human rights activists and possible victims were threatened with criminal charges for speaking out; investigators failed to evaluate whether consent, when given, was informed; and some Romani women and their lawyers were blocked from accessing their own medical records.
"Against this backdrop, Deputy Prime Minister Pal Csaky's assertion that 'illegal sterilizations' have not taken place rings hollow, especially as a closer examination of [the Slovak] government's own reports confirms that some women, including minors, were in fact sterilized without consent. Moreover, such denials detract from the positive steps your government is taking--which we welcome--to implement reforms in the health care system intended to ensure that, in the future, sterilizations are only performed when informed consent is given."
Concern regarding sterilizations of Roma in Slovakia have been raised by the European Union Rapporteur for Slovakia, the U.N. Human Rights Committee, the Council of Europe's Commissioner for Human Rights (who issued a special report on this issue in October), and the U.S. Delegation to the OSCE's annual Human Dimension Implementation Meeting. The Slovak Government has cooperated with international organizations interested in this matter.

Lip color can be subtle or dramatic, creating a more glamorous look as the day moves into evening. Whatever your fancy, lipstick is the final touch to your makeup design. Warm, light colors in a matte or cream finish are typically preferred for daytime wear, while darker, brighter colors with gloss create a flirtier, more dramatic look for nighttime. It's important to choose a color that matches the natural tone of your skin and lips and also complements the colors you've chosen for your cheeks and eye makeup.
Shades of brown and red, mauve and berry tones pair well with olive skin; deep reds, burgundy, chocolate and plum complement a dark skin tone; and pinks, beiges, apricots, light corals and orange-tinted colors are ideal for lighter skin. If you're using a lip liner, be sure to match the color to your lipstick. Follow your actual lip line exactly and blend the lip liner and lip color fully after applying to avoid an unnatural, clownish look. Lip color is available in stick, liquid and cream forms, and some contain added sun protection.
