These days, with so much doom and gloom in the news and our nation's leaders and representatives bickering like spoiled children, we need to find more reasons to celebrate each and every day. Here at Choclatique, we celebrate with chocolate, of course!
#5… It's our birthday! Our country turns 234 on July 4th… seems like a great big chocolate birthday cake is in order, right? A Coca-Cola® Chocolate Cake1 sounds perfect. What could be more all-American than that? Happy Birthday, America!
#4… Those lazy, hazy, crazy days of summer! Nat King Cole got it right with the soda, pretzels and beer, but where was the custard? I'm a Milwaukee girl; growing up our summers always included plenty of trips to Gillesor Kopp's Frozen Custard stands and I've spread the word like an evangelist. So much so that Ed was inspired to create Deep Dark Chocolate Frozen Custard1.
#3… No more mandatory vuvuzela! While it might be a bit sad that America is no longer in the running for the 2010 FIFA World Cup, I think we can all celebrate not having to endure the maddening reverberations of the vuvuzela with Intoxicating Chocolate Peanut Butter & Jelly Shots1.
#2… 3-D technology has gone mainstream! Not that long ago, 3-D movies were travelogue-type documentaries released every couple of years to be viewed at a handful of theaters across the country. Today any number of movies are playing in 3-D at our neighborhood theaters and soon we'll be watching all of our favorite TV shows in 3-D, too. Celebrate with 3-D Chocolate Filled Pancakes1!
And the #1 reason to celebrate… the book is finished and off to the editor!!

While cleansing your skin daily to remove impurities and trace elements of makeup and pollutants is a valuable part of your morning and evening skincare routine, it isn't the only strategy available to you. Today, many exfoliating products are readily available to those individuals who wish to take advantage of them. Exfoliators are successful in removing impurities as well as dead skin cell accumulation. As fresh skin is revealed, your countenance offers a more youthful appearance, unless the exfoliating solution has been formulated with harsh ingredients that deplete your skin of essential oils and hydration. When you use Alchimie Forever Exfoliators as part of your cleansing routine, you enjoy the benefit of ingredients that have been chosen for their gentle capabilities to rejuvenate your skin as they slough off spent cells. The creamy formulas of Alchimie Forever Exfoliators leave your skin feeling smoother, softer, and fresher.
Incorporating Alchimie Forever Exfoliators into your regular skincare regimen once or twice a week gives your routine a boost that delivers exceptional cleansing capabilities along with moisturizing ones that restore the natural radiance of your skin.
Alchimie Forever Exfoliators provide a gentle option for exfoliating your skin, giving you a better choice over harsher beauty products that deliver less than perfect results. Allowing you to more thoroughly cleanse your skin, exfoliators help to rejuvenate your skin's ability to absorb moisturizers and treatments designed to create healthier looking skin. Alchimie Forever Exfoliators can be used in combination with your regular skin cleanser once or twice a week. However, you may want to try the cleansing product offered by the Alchimie Forever brand since it also includes gentle ingredients.
Delivering skin refining that reveals hidden beauty while minimizing surface lines and shrinking pores, Alchimie Forever Excimer Plus Gentle Antioxidant Refining Scrub delivers a hydrating experience along with its deep cleansing action. Infused with shea butter, it softens the skin as it is gently scrubbed through the presence of papaya enzymes, cranberry and jojoba beads, all of which act together to exfoliate your skin, creating a refined complexion that appears younger instantly.
Offering the skin brightening capability of Lychee extract, this creamy exfoliant noticeably lightens your countenance, aiding in the restoration of its natural radiance and luminosity. As you know, the skin becomes duller as it ages and impurities build up. An exfoliating product that offers both the ability to slough off dead skin cells and residual surface dirt as well as the capability to brighten your skin would be a welcome addition to anyone's regular skincare product selection. Best of all, this particular exfoliating product is perfect for all skin types, even the most sensitive ones.

Egypt burns
Egypt | As the military meets a violent Muslim Brotherhood, an ancient civilization that includes Egypt's Christians endures a brutal backlash
Shortly before devastating clashes exploded across Cairo and killed hundreds of people in mid-August, workers at the Bible Society of Egypt in Assiut noticed something strange: Someone had scrawled the word "Islamic" on most of the Christian-owned businesses in the town more than 200 miles south of Cairo.
A few days later, Egyptian security forces in Cairo raided two sprawling camps filled with thousands of supporters of ousted President Mohamed Morsi and the Muslim Brotherhood. The ensuing violence has killed about 1,000 people, including hundreds of demonstrators from the camps. Mosques became makeshift morgues, and mourners searched for family among blood-soaked corpses.
Within hours, an Islamist mob swept through downtown Assiut (also spelled Asyut) and set fire to the Christian-owned businesses tagged a few days earlier. When they reached the Bible Society's storefront, assailants broke a security door, smashed a window, and burned the store to the ground.
Ramez Atallah, president of the Bible Society of Egypt, said the attacks appear preplanned, since the crowds arrived shortly after the Cairo raids and burned the marked buildings.
Indeed, during the first three days after Egypt's deadliest clashes in decades, Islamists had attacked, looted, and torched dozens of church buildings, Christian-owned businesses, and Christian schools across Egypt. At the Bible Society's store in Minya, assailants stole cash from a safe, torched the building, and built a bonfire with Bibles.
Islamists also attacked police stations and burned government buildings. Dozens of police officers died in the clashes. Atallah noted demonstrators had promised they would wreak havoc if police raided the Cairo encampments. "And they did. They went on a rampage," he said. "They burned Egypt."
Egypt's burning is more than the latest installment in the country's ongoing political revolution: The recent chaos reveals a defining battle for the soul of the largest country in the Middle East. The lines are stark between those fiercely devoted to an Islamist rule and those dedicated to broader freedoms, including the already tenuous religious liberty in a nation with the largest number of Christians in the Arab world.
The roots of the current crisis began more than two years ago when millions of Egyptians demanded the ouster of former President Hosni Mubarak.
A year later, many Egyptians worried when Mohamed Morsi—a member of the Muslim Brotherhood—narrowly won the country's first free presidential elections in decades. Members of the Muslim Brotherhood won nearly 50 percent of the seats in Parliament.
Disillusionment developed quickly: Food prices spiked, gasoline supplies plummeted, and unemployment rose. By last November, Morsi had fast-tracked a controversial constitution with Islamist rules, and decreed sweeping powers for himself. He gave his own decisions immunity from judicial review.
By June of this year, millions of demonstrators—including former Morsi supporters and secularists, moderate Muslims, and many Christians—demanded his ouster. The Egyptian military announced Morsi's removal on July 3, and appointed an interim civilian government.
Some critics of the country's second revolution said Egyptians should adhere to the outcome of free elections. But Morsi's critics said his power grabs and Islamist leadership would have stripped many Egyptians of critical freedoms before they could vote again.
Ramez Salama is a freelance tour guide and an Egyptian Christian who attends a large Presbyterian church in Cairo. When I visited Cairo last year, Salama, 31, served as my guide in the city. He was worried then the country would move in an Islamist direction.
When I reached him by phone as the recent violence broke, Salama said he supported Morsi's ouster. His Muslim friends agreed. "If we wait four years the entire culture would have been changed," he said. "We were losing our identity. We were going rapidly toward a strict Islamic state."
That's the direction many Morsi supporters wanted. After the president's ouster, and despite hundreds of thousands who took to the street calling for it, thousands of his supporters formed two sprawling encampments at major intersections in Cairo, and vowed they wouldn't leave until the interim government reinstated Morsi.
The massive encampments—as many as 40,000 people at times—caused chaos for Egyptians living in the area. Some of the speeches inside the camp caused fear. "If you go and hear the speech of hatred they promote against the Christians of Egypt—you can't imagine," said Salama. The Associated Press quoted one speaker: "We are standing up to a world of infidels that refuses to follow Islam."
In early August, Amnesty International released a disturbing report describing torture in the pro-Morsi camps. The report said anti-Morsi protesters had been "captured, beaten, subjected to electric shocks or stabbed by individuals loyal to the former president." One victim said assailants dragged him to a location near one of the encampments, and beat him. He said armed men slit the throat of another captive.
By mid-August, Egyptian officials warned Morsi supporters to leave the camps, but some demonstrators insisted they would die before they allowed security forces to expel them.
Mohamed al-Imbabi, a teacher from the town of Mansoura, told The Financial Times he, his wife, and four children would leave as "corpses or victors." He added: "I am not afraid for the children. I even wish they would die, then their place would be in paradise."
It's unclear how many women and children died when Egyptian security forces raided the Cairo encampments on Aug. 14. Most of the photos from local mosques and hospitals showed the bloodied corpses of young men.
The tactics of Egyptian forces provoked fierce criticism, even among some who supported dispersing the camps. By the end of the day, over 500 people were dead, including at least 43 police officers, and security forces said they found weapon caches in the camps. Miserable scenes included wounded demonstrators weeping over the lined-up bodies of dead protesters. But as sites around Cairo burned, it was clear that those who protested also led in the destruction. The Obama administration—and many human rights groups—condemned the violence, saying the police used excessive force. But if the police tactics were excessive, the opposition they encountered from Islamists in Cairo and other parts of the country was explosive.
Attacks on churches—Coptic, Catholic, and evangelical—began within hours. Many Muslim Brotherhood supporters blamed Christians for Morsi's ouster, noting the leader of Egypt's Coptic church, Pope Tawadros II, stood with Egyptian officials when they announced Morsi's removal (so too did the powerful head of Cairo's Al-Azhar mosque, Sheik Ahmed el-Tayeb).
Robert George of the U.S. Commission on International Religious Freedom called the violence against Christian churches and businesses "unprecedented in modern Egypt, both in its scope and the number of churches and structures attacked." At one of the region's oldest monasteries, the Virgin Mary Monastery near Assiut, priest Selwanes Lotfy said on Aug. 18, "We did not hold prayers in the monastery on Sunday for the first time in 1,600 years."
Egyptian Christians reported assailants burned and looted over 50 churches, attacked three Christian schools, and burned a Christian orphanage. Many buildings were empty, and the death toll remained low: Christians reported two deaths from attacks.
Islamists also targeted dozens of police stations and burned at least two government buildings. In Kerdasa—a small town near Cairo—the violence was brutal: A few hours after the raids in Cairo began, a mob stormed the police station, shot 11 policemen in their heads and bodies, looted the building, and torched the structure.
The mob moved to Kerdasa's only church. The Islamists burned part of the Coptic structure and used a sledgehammer to tear down walls. On another wall, a demonstrator spray-painted: "We will show you rage and we will make you see terrorism."
Terence Ascott, founder of SAT-7, a Christian broadcasting station in the Middle East, said the encampments and the violence showed pro-Morsi supporters weren't victims: "These Muslim Brotherhood occupations were dominated by calls for violence against the army, the police, the liberals, and specifically, the Coptic Christians in Egypt."
Many Muslims agree. The military's raids met widespread support in Cairo from Egyptians who said the actions were necessary to prevent the Muslim Brotherhood from growing more entrenched. Ascott and other Christians noted many local Muslims tried to protect churches from attacks. Atallah of the Bible Society said he was as concerned for Muslims as Christians, and noted: "Every drop of blood is a sadness."
Muslim Brotherhood leaders said they condemned the violence against Christians, but called for Morsi supporters to continue protests. Two days after the deadly raids, an imam prayed over a loudspeaker in Cairo: "God, please make Egypt an Islamic state, support freedom on earth, destroy tyrants, and destroy the media that is supported by tyrants."
Nearly 300 Muslim Brotherhood supporters chanted after leaving the mosque: "Either we die like they did or we get revenge for our martyrs. … It's going to be Islamic despite the secularists!"
As Egypt prepared for what may become protracted battles, some worried about the potential for regional conflict. Jihadists already have a stronghold in many parts of Egypt's Sinai Peninsula, and have killed more than 25 security forces there in recent weeks. The Sinai's shared border with Israel has already led to cross-border clashes between Israelis and Egyptian militants. "America cannot determine the future of Egypt. That's a task for the Egyptian people," said President Barack Obama. But the standoff approach of the United States—condemning the recent violence but continuing military aid—makes it more likely Egypt will seek alliances in the region.
For now, many Egyptians say they will move forward, though that likely means business and everyday life will continue to suffer. Salama—the tour guide in Cairo—knows his business will decline further. It's a reality he's faced for the last two years as tourism, once 10 percent of Egypt's economy, has plummeted.
When I visited Egypt last year, Salama's enthusiastic voice swelled as he explained the wonders of the pyramids and the elaborate contents of King Tut's tomb. He had to remind himself not to shout: The tour had five people, not the usual 15.
By August of this year, business is worse: A few days before the clashes, Salama led a tour in Luxor with just one client. The famed Nile River—usually filled with scores of tour boats—carried only a handful back to Cairo.
It's a particular grief for a man who loves his country and its capital. Indeed, the city once called "Paris on the Nile" boasts a remarkable blend of French and Middle Eastern architecture, along with a museum filled with artifacts thousands of years old, and colossal pyramids that strike awe in visitors.
For Christians, the country remains a cradle of ancient Christianity—a place in which Christ found refuge from danger as an infant and a site for some of the earliest churches. For Salama, it's the place in which his grandfather became a Protestant and started one of the first Presbyterian churches in the country.
Salama longs to stay in Egypt, even as many Christians are fleeing. (As many as 100,000 Coptic Christians have fled the country in the last two years, along with many evangelicals.) He's found comfort from his pastor's recent sermons about God's protection, and has joined the church in praying for other Egyptians, including pro-Morsi supporters.
Still, in the days after Egypt's clashes, Salama couldn't hide his grief over Egypt's fires: "My heart is broken for my beloved country."

The White House is working on new fuel standards with a goal of a 56.2 mile per gallon average for new cars by 2025, but some automakers are already trying to put the brakes on the plan saying it will drive up new vehicle costs by thousands of dollars and force layoffs. There are cars actually getting that mileage now which saves you a ton at the pump, but it will cost you in other ways. With gas prices nearing 4-dollars a gallon, people are finding ways to hit the road without breaking the bank.
"I was getting 90 miles to the purchased gallon with that vehicle," said Cliff Hollis of Greenville.
Hollis found a way to get 90 miles to the gallon without buying a hybrid or electric vehicle.
"I had considered a Prius, a hybrid vehicle, and then thought, 'Hey wait. OK. I want to go even more alternative than that, and waste vegetable oil was the most alternative that I could find," said Hollis.
Vegetable oil, the same kind you use in your kitchen, was the secret to Hollis' fuel savings success. He converted 3 older model diesel cars to run on vegetable oil. Only diesel models work for the conversion.
"A1983 rabbit and a Mercedes 240D and 300D both of which, all 3 were 20 to 25 years old, so I got into the vehicles for nothing," said Hollis.
The cars were cheap and the used vegetable oil was free. Hollis picked it up from 2 restaurants. Hollis said he did it to save money but also for the environment.
"I was really thinking what could I do to do my part and to be
in a situation where I could say I'm not a part of the problem," said Hollis.
Hollis sold his vegetable oil run cars, but plans to convert his 98 Jetta which he says will cost 2 to 3 thousand dollars. So maybe you don't have the time and money to dedicate to converting your car to run on vegetable oil.
Doctor Loren Limberis, a bioengineering professor at East Carolina University drives diesel vehicles and says they are more fuel efficient than gasoline engines and many are cheaper to drive than hybrids or electric cars.
"It just depends on what the economics the consumer is looking at. If they're really adamant about cleaning up the environment or maintaining a clean environment, I don't know if much is going to stop them from paying the extra money that is required for this technology," said Limberis.
Filling up your car with diesel seems painful at the pump because it costs about a quarter more a gallon than unleaded. It's about $4.00 a gallon right now. So maybe you're thinking a hybrid is a better choice. It will definitely save you money at the gas station, but experts say it could take years of driving that hybrid car to break even for what you paid for it.
"The electric hybrids they can get crazy especially if you get into the larger, luxury models it can take up to, I know this sounds weird, but if you do the math up to 150 years to pay it back," said Limberis
So, let's do the math. Let's look at 2011 model cars that get at least 40 miles per gallon on the highway. Based on driving 15-thousand miles a year (about half in the city and half on the highway) with gas costing an average of $3.64 cents and $3.90 for diesel, you'll pay the most at the pump with diesel models and get great mileage on the highway- about 42 miles to the gallon. Your yearly cost for gas is just over 17-hundred dollars.
Car manufacturers have churned out a few gasoline-fueled cars to compete with hybrids and diesels that get 40-miles per a gallon on the highway and you'll average about the same at the pump as a diesel that has slightly better gas mileage because you're paying less for unleaded- about $1650 a year. Plus,these models cost about $10,000 less than their diesel counterparts.
It's no surprise electric and hybrid models have the lowest fuel costs. With an average of 42-miles to the gallon for hybrids, you'll spend less on gas at as little as a thousand dollars a year. Hybrids use gas for engine start up and as a back up if you run out of a charge-.
You get a whopping average 93 miles a gallon with electric cars and you'll only spend about 600 dollars a year on electricity- that's just 50-dollars a month. Hybrids we listed cost 19 to 29-thousand dollars, and small electric models are priced between 29 and 39-thousand dollars.
So, even though you could save more than a thousand dollars a year in gas- in order to make up the extra $5,000 to $25,000 you pay for an electric or hybrid versus a gas powered car- you'd have to drive that gas-saving ride 5 -25 years to break even.
So, when it comes to newer model cars, the innovations to make gas powered engines more efficient have paid off for manufacturers. Driving a small gas powered car will save you the most money in the short run if you are buying a newer model car.
If you're wondering how the vegetable oil car matches up? It costs the same to run as an electric car. Who would have thought? We've had the secret to saving on gas in our kitchen cabinets all along.
If you're strictly choosing a car for the best gas mileage, gas powered cars with the very best gas mileage when you factor in the cost of the car. The drawback is there are only *four* 2011 model, gas-fueled-only cars sold in America that get 40 miles per gallon or better- and they are small cars. They are the Ford Fiesta, Hyundai Elantra, Chevy Cruze Eco and Smart Fortwo cars.
If you're not in the market for a new car, many older, small model diesels get about 50-miles to the gallon on the highway. So even though the price of diesel is a little more- the price of the car is less and you come out saving money as long as there is no major maintenance issue.
Also, the cost of hybrids and electric cars went up this year because there is no more tax incentive to buy hybrids, and the federal incentive to buy an electric car was cut in half from 7,500 dollars to $3,750.
Accessibility to green cars is tough. You usually have to pre-order the cars, and it's tough to find a used one because they are in high demand.
You might be wondering about E-85 or ethanol fuels. They are cleaner burning and better for the environment, but they don't improve fuel efficiency.
If you can't afford to change cars right now, experts say you can save money on gas by driving efficiently, maintaining your car, and planning trips. Many short trips taken from a cold start can use twice as much fuel as a multi-purpose trip covering the same distance.

Reviews & Community
I'd buy it again!
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
I have been using this helmet on downhill trails mainly on hot sunny days. I hike with the helmet on my handle bars.. Then strap it on for the ride down!
- Great Ventilation
- I love the Buckle strap rather than the D-ring straps on other helmets
- Pads are thicker and washable so I don't have to smell myself after a bunch of rides.
- worth the cash had a cheaper bell sanction helmet which was nice for the price. But the Drop is way ahead of the game in comfort, ventilation, and style.
** All together Sick helmet I definitely don't regret the purchase!**
Buckle is super easy to use
Fits amazing and super comfortable. Doesnt get too hot and the buckle is super easy to use.
Lightweight. Fits well. Great visibility. I bought this helmet when I started dirt jumping. I was afraid it would limit my visibility because I'm used to wearing a regular mountain bike helmet. I can't even tell I'm wearing it. I feel safe. My head sweats almost immediately when I put it on, but I have yet to feel hot in this helmet. Plan on racing an enduro with it this summer.
Bell Drop Helmet
Bell Drop
- Familiarity: I've used it once or twice and have initial impressions
I bought this for Downhill skateboarding and its great. Its comfortable, light, the ventilation works great on it, and its doesn't block your vision very much. And I imagine its great for mountain biking also.
Strong and comfy!! Mine broke last year so I bought the Six Six One Comp Shifted Helmet.
Great Helmet
I really like this helmet, especially for the price. My noggin feels well protected.
Great value
I was worried this would be a cheaply made helmet but its actually very nice. Can't beat it for the money. Fits well and comfortable. Looks great and fairly light.
Hey this is the helmet to get. I have it and am happy with it and glad i didn't spend 100$ more for a different look.
great helmet without the hefty price
Bell Drop Helmet
Sweet helmet, looks awesome, not to heavy, gets the job done for sure. Grab one, because who needs to spend $500 on a helmet?
Agree with everything Nate says!
What type of strap does this thing have?...
What type of strap does this thing have? plastic buckle or mx style D ring?
It's got a plastic buckle, easily adjustable, love it.
Perfect fit and it has vents
I've tried a lot of different full faced helmets and this one fits me the best. I always wear a Medium in road/mountain helmets (I'm at the upper end of the sizing range though), but I guess my head is a weird shape because many of the full-faced mediums were just too tight. Specialized Deviant (too tight), Giro Remedy (too tight), SixSixOne (too tight). So I'd try the large size and they were way too big. The Bell Drop in a medium is just right. Way better venting than a SixSixOne and if it were vented like the Deviant, then 5 stars, but it's not quite that luxurious. Great lid.
Sizing is weird
The Bell Drop sizing is intended for Charlie Brown or Stewie from the Family Guy. If you're going to get one size down from what you normally get. I wear a large in THE helmets and the large Bell was huge. It was way too wide.

Blooming beauty. Detailed flowers accent the multicolored background on this handmade wool rug. A watercolor effect is created by dyeing the yarn to three different intensities. From Royal Palace(R) Handmade Rugs.
No more slipping and sliding! Check out our selection of rug pads.
Royal Palace® Rugs: About Rug Shedding
Some shedding is normal for a wool rug. Shedding occurs when static electricity attracts loose wool fibers, or when rubber-soled shoes—like sneakers—break off small wool fibers. This won't affect the wear of the rug. After receiving your new rug, we recommend that you vigorously vacuum it vertically, horizontally, and diagonally, with the brush set at a low setting. Repeat this for 2-3 days; it's okay if you fill more than one vacuum bag or canister's worth. This vigorous vacuuming will not harm the rug and will help minimize shedding. You can then vacuum regularly with the brush at a medium or high setting, alternating with an upholstery attachment. We recommend vacuuming once every two weeks. You'll find wool fibers in the vacuum bag but, again, this won't affect the wear of your rug.

|Hispanic Health Fair Saturday
|Written by Holyoke Enterprise
A second health fair will be offered by East Phillips County Hospital District Saturday, May 8 at Holyoke High School.
After forming a community linkages committee, board members met with members of the Hispanic community and the idea of holding a Hispanic Health Fair came alive.
The fair will be held from 9 a.m.-12 noon Saturday, May 8. The format will be very similar to the fair held in March.
Many of the same things will be offered including height and weight measurements, eye checks, body fat and blood pressure analysis, blood draws and blood work reviews.
Blood draws taken the day of the fair will not be available for immediate review and can be picked up at the hospital. Those planning to have blood drawn Saturday morning need to fast for 12 hours before the test.
Translators from Rural Solutions and the school will be present to help make the process run smoothly. Information will also be available in Spanish as well as English.
The health fair isn't limited to just the Hispanic community. Anyone is welcome to attend and participate.

In this article
If you're overweight, you can improve your diet by:
- eating wholegrain carbohydrates, rather than their white equivalents
- eating plenty of fruit and vegetables
- cutting out high-fat and high-sugar food and drink
- doing regular exercise(NICE 2010)
Make sure that you also talk to your doctor or midwife for advice.
Is vitamin A important during pregnancy?Yes. Vitamin A is important for night vision, cell growth, healthy skin and red blood cell production (EVM 2003). It exists in our food in two forms: retinol and beta-carotene. Your body can store vitamin A for future use, so you don't need it every day. If you have too much of the retinol form of vitamin A, it can build up in your body and may harm your unborn baby.
Retinol is found in egg yolks, butter, margarine, milk and yoghurt (NHS 2012), all of which are fine to eat during pregnancy. However, because liver is a particularly rich source of retinol form of vitamin A, you shouldn't eat it in pregnancy(NHS 2011).
You can get plenty of beta-carotene from orange-coloured foods such as carrots, sweet potatoes, ripe papaya and oranges. It's also present in green vegetables, especially broccoli, watercress, spinach and spring greens.
Lunch: watercress and celeriac soupA simple soup that has a vibrant green colour and contains lots of vitamin A. Great for when you don't feel like eating anything too heavy. It serves four, and freezes well.
- 1 large onion, roughly chopped
- 1 tbsp olive or rapeseed oil
- 400g potatoes, peeled and cubed
- 400g celeriac, peeled and cubed
- 1 litre vegetable stock
- 75g washed watercress
- black pepper and grated nutmeg (optional)
Preparation time: 20 minutes
Cooking time: 30 minutes
Gently fry the onion in the oil until softened in a large, non-stick saucepan. Add the potatoes and celeriac, and continue to cook gently over a low heat for 10 minutes, stirring often.
Add the vegetable stock and bring to the boil. Simmer the soup for 10 minutes to 15 minutes, or until the vegetables are nearly soft.
Add the watercress, and heat for another five minutes until the watercress has wilted and the stalks begin to soften.
Blend the soup until smooth, adding black pepper and nutmeg to taste. Serve the soup with some fresh multigrain bread and a matchbox-sized chunk of cheddar cheese for a simple, satisfying lunch.
Snack: papaya smoothieRipe papaya is a delicious source of beta-carotene.
- 1 small, ripe papaya
- 100ml apple juice
- 100ml mango juice
Preparation time: 10 minutes
Cut the papaya in half lengthways and remove the seeds and skin. Chop roughly and place in a small blender, juicer or food processor. Add the chilled apple and mango juice, and blend until smooth. Serve in a glass with ice, if you'd like it extra-cold.
Dinner: sweet apple lambA simple lamb dish that contains essential iron and beta-carotene for you and your baby. Bramley apples melt into the mixture, providing a hidden sweetness, but you can use eating apples. This recipe serves four and is suitable for freezing.
- 500g lean lamb mince
- 1 onion, finely chopped
- 1 clove garlic, crushed
- 1 tsp ground cumin
- 1 small sweet potato, peeled and diced
- quarter of an average-sized celeriac, peeled and diced
- 1 medium Bramley cooking apple, peeled, cored and diced
- 2 tsp dried thyme, or 1 large sprig of fresh thyme, leaves removed
- 400ml water
Preparation time: 25 minutes
Cooking time: 30 to 40 minutes
Gently brown the lamb in large saucepan, stirring in the onion and garlic after a few minutes. Continue to cook until the lamb is browned all over and the onion is soft.
Stir in the cumin, sweet potato, celeriac and cooking apple and cook gently for another few minutes. Add the thyme and water, and bring to the boil slowly.
Stir, cover and cook over a low heat for 30 minutes to 40 minutes, until the vegetables are soft, adding more water if necessary.
Serve the lamb with rice, couscous or mashed potato, and a green vegetable, such as broccoli or green beans.

I got chills…I still have chills. A video truly fit for the Stanley Cup Champions. Thank you to our reader and extraordinary talent, JMsalsa for letting us premiere this on Surly & Scribe.
Categories: L.A. Kings Videos
OMFG! What a fucking AMAZING video! The chills I had throughout the whole video were awesome! It even brought a tear to my eye! I love all of you and the Kings! I fucking love this team! GO KINGS GO!!
Pretty awesome video!
How can I tattoo this video to my fucking eyeballs so this is all I see from now on?
Damn… that was a REALLY good video.
been waiting for this!!
JMsalsa….thanks for the EXCELLENT video! First beer is on me next season.
i am totally holding you to this.
Now I have to go fix my mascara. Amazing video!
thnx everyone! had to post it here first. S&S helped get the momentum going on the first video so i wanted to post here first. kinda crazy to look back on them all now and that all 16 numbers got an "X" over them. what a great run and it's been fun being able to share in it all with you guys.
Another amazing video!! Completely stopped working to see this and it brought a tear to my eyes.
This video brings back so many emotions…I can hardly wait for next season to begin! I hope we do all we can, to keep the cup for a very long time.
How about this fucking video right here?
Another amazing video. Great job.
Each video was incredible. Thank you so much for sharing them all with us. I hope you'll be providing the video for next season's run as well!
WOW, chills indeed. Thank you for making me feel like I was apart of the team and on the ice for the last 5 minutes. FUCKING EH MAN!
That was the greatest video I have ever seen. I was shedding tears of joy the entire time watching it. Thanks for sharing such a great video. And a big thanks to jmsalsa for putting together 5 of the greatest videos ever made about the Kings. I think I am going to have to put them on a DVD so I can watch them over and over again. Thanks do much I cannot wait to share these with my son who is due in a month…he will be a King fan for life like his father and grandfather.
thnx so much for sharing this. i have a 3.5 year old son and although he may not remember most of what happened this year. i will have fond memories of telling him all about the moments we had sitting on the couch watching the playoffs this year. and also how he learned to instantly recognize and spurt back to me "that's the Stanley Cup!"
No no I just got something in my eyes…The culmination of all those long, frustrating years has finally been redeemed.
This team has inspired so many people in and outside of hockey. I went and played pickup today for lunch and two young goalies were playing a very similar style to Johnny Quick. The way they were scrambling for pucks and the moves were almost identical to how Quickie plays the game. Sitting on the bench and just watching those young goalies…the pride was brimming! Just fucking magical!
Wow jm….. that's flippin amazing!!! What a tremendous job you did on the video. Perfect in every last detail.
Freaking Fabulous! Loved every second of that. Thank you for sharing it with us.
Fucking bullshit rigged ass Vezina goes to Lundquist. Typical EC bullshit what else is new?
Winning the cup makes you realize how silly these awards are.
The conn smythe makes the vezina look like a sportsmanship award.
The. Vezina is for goalies only. Conn smythe is any player. I'm greedy I guess I want them all in LA
No problem. DL's happy about it. It just saved him about 500k off the price of Quick's next contract.
JMsalsa never ceases to amaze me.
Absolutely brilliant!
This video made me drip jiz. I'm 64 so that was a welcome surprise! Will watch again tomorrow.
Dude, you should try doing yoga
Ironically, I just started monday this week. Thanks for head's up and supporting your brother in hockey. Go Kings.
Too f—en funny!! By the way…… yoga is FANTASTIC!! Just be careful in that you don't push yourself beyond where you can go!! Very important. Everyone has their own level and each persons body has different issues. But congrats.
I was able to stop crying after only about twenty (or so) re-watchings.
I'm not like you soppy sentimental faggots!
"Strong men also cry, Mr Lebowski…strong men also cry."
"Dude, fuckin' A! "
+1 for perfect reply, Ryan.
JMsalsa, I commented on another video, but excellence can not be overstated; well done, once again.
I must admit "The Time Is Now" is still my favorite video of the series. That one especially kicks ass…
yeah – "the time is now" is probably my favorite too. just something about the music and the feeling of "better get ready cuz the boys are about to roll over your team" that i just love.
Just when I thought that I was done crying…..This video is AMAZING!!!!!
Was wondering if you have an email address that you'd be comfortable leaving for me (otherwise I can post mine) if you read this. I'm just now getting ready to start working w video (am a photog by profession) and could use some guidance re: getting involved with Final Cut Pro.
are you on twitter? i'm @jsalsLA – follow me on that and we can do private messages there.
Am not yet…. but will sort it out and go from there. Thanks!
absolutely loved it! cant wait for the DVD of every round with all the highlights and behind the scenes shit.
Awesome video-
Been about 10 days since I've watched this.
Yep, still makes me tear up.

When draining the tomatoes, reserve the liquid; pour into airtight container. Freeze up to 3 months. Thaw, then use to prepare your favorite soup or stew recipe.
For a simple dish made with lean meat that can help your family eat right, try these baked chicken breasts that are bursting with flavor. And as a bonus, they can be ready in just 40 minutes.

We love this recipe. I double the tomatoes, the balsalmic and the garlic.. We like it over white rice. So easy and quick!
Excellent! Have three picky kids and they loved it. Used Italian Dressing instead of Balsamic, and dredged the chicken in the cheese before baking.
This was really easy but I won't make it again. It didn't have enough flavor. Nobody wants to eat the leftovers.

Tennis elbow is an overuse and muscle strain injury. The cause is repeated contraction of the forearm muscles that you use to straighten and raise your hand and wrist. The repeated motions and stress to the tissue may result in a series of tiny tears in the tendons that attach the forearm muscles to the bony prominence at the outside of your elbow.
As the name suggests, playing tennis — especially repeated use of the backhand stroke with poor technique — is one possible cause of tennis elbow. However, many other common arm motions can cause tennis elbow, including:

Since it hasn't been mentioned yet, I thought I would post a link to the news of iPhone 3.0...for example Summary: iPhone 3.0 update to offer 100 new features | Software | Macworld
For Zimbra, I think the big news is that iPhone 3.0 will support CalDAV natively. Assuming that it will work smoothly with Zimbra, I wonder how much more work would need to be done to complete the trifecta of Mail (IMAP), Calendar (CalDAV), and Contacts (??) that are currently synchronized via ActiveSync?
And now that both Notes and To Do are going to be supported (in some fashion) on iPhone, will Zimbra provide a method for synching those as well?
(I don't expect answers soon, of course, but I'm looking forward to developments.)


text:
I have been having major speed problems with the web interface and read in the forums that it can be improved by a production deploy of the web client. I haven't found any documentation and find the slowness to be a major obstacle to me using Zimbra.
Thanks for your help

East Central Community College in Decatur held an appreciation luncheon Thursday for the media.
At the event, ECCC president Dr. Billy Stewart said details of the announcement are being kept secret. But he said the news will have an impact on the college, and students there, for many years to come.
"There will be students affected by this that I will never know," said Stewart. "And I'm just excited. It's all about East Central Community College, I'll say that. It's about the institution and furthering our educational pursuits. And this announcement will go a long ways toward doing that."
The announcement will be made Tuesday, Oct. 9 at 3 p.m. in Thrash Auditorium, located in Newton Hall, on the Decatur campus.

The Citumang River near Pangandaran with its clear blue water, runs through green thick forests deep in the Cijulang area along the south coast of West Java. Its banks are decorated with beautiful boulders withbranches of trees and bushes picturesquely bending over the river. As the water flows on, it enters an astonishing cave. Here, tranquility greets visitors warmly. The only sounds heard are the sweet harmonny of nature: music created by gurgling water and the soft whispers of the wind as it makes its way through the trees, accompanied by the many unique sounds of hidden animals.
This river of tranquility is located at the Bojong Village, in the Ciamis Region, about 15Km west of Pangandaran. The name Citumang is given by the locals who believe that a certain crocodile with a broken leg once lived in this river. The crocodile's name was "Si Tumang", while "Ci" means : river. Hence the name Citumang given to the river.
As you walk among the high cliffs, the rush of the river can already be heard. Passing the cliffs, the stunning beauty of the river is unveiled. Its clear blue water slowly invites you to jump in. When you walk further up stream, you will find a waterfall with a huge tree that has dangling roots like ropes that you can hang on to. This is a perfect place to follow your adrenalin rush: imagine yourself as Tarzan, swinging from its roots to jump down into the river.
Further upstream, you will find a rare natural wonder. The water from the river drops down and disappears into the earth to reappear downstream, just like a natural plumbing system. The place is located at the tip of a cave called Taringgul cave, and the flow of the river down into the earth is called "Sanghyang Tikoro" or translated means "the God of the Throat".
The river's characteristic and relatively fast current makes it a perfect place for special activities like body rafting and watertubing. Instead of using inflatable boats or kayak, body rafting literally uses the body (obviously, wearing safety equipment such as helmet and life vest) to navigate through the river.
Equally thrilling, watertubing is a special type of river rafting that uses inflatable donut shaped "tubes" instead of boats or kayaks. Here, 'rafters' and 'tubers' will get the chance to enjoy the splendor of the Citumang River at its finest, both in its tranquility and equally thrilling side of the river.
Citumang River is also a perfect place to bring your kids and family. Here, you can teach them the values of nature, the importance of the environment, and a place where to spend quality time, not only with each other, but also with the surroundings. As city activities become more stressing with each passing day, wash your stress away by soaking your weary head in the cool, clear, fresh mountain water. Close your eyes and just let all your burdens flow downstream. A trip to the Citumang River is the closest you can get to finding an F5 button in your life, so while you're there, just hit it! Refresh!
Citumang is located half way between Pangandaran and Green Canyon. The only public transportation that can take you there is the ojek, a motorbike taxi commonly found in many areas on Java. You can also rent your own bike and follow the road that leads to Citumang. If you take your own ride, the best way to get down to the Citumang River is from Cibenda, the local Market, through Panyingkiran's narrow road and green rice fields until you reach the parking lot. From there it's a 25 minutes' walk before you get to the river.

Officials say man who killed daughter committed suicide
Published: Wednesday, January 23, 2013 at 12:52 p.m.
Last Modified: Wednesday, January 23, 2013 at 12:52 p.m.
IRVINE — Hamilton County Sheriff's Office detectives are investigating a murder/suicide in which the body of a woman was found Monday on a dirt road in Hamilton County and the body of her father was found Tuesday at a truck stop in Marion County.
Hamilton County Sheriff Harrell Reid said that around 6:30 a.m. Monday, a power company employee discovered the body of Pamela Provenzano, 61, on Southwest 44th Street, which is off State Road 6 in the North Florida county, and notified his agency.
Reid said Provenzano had been shot in the head. Her purse was recovered by detectives and contents inside revealed she was staying in Lowndes County, Ga.
Hamilton County is roughly 12 miles from the Florida-Georgia state line.
Detectives from Hamilton County went to Lowndes County to talk with members of Provenzano's family. Reid said they learned that her father, Daniel Lee Ovaert, 79, had left his home early Monday and could not be found.
At the transmission business Ovaert owns with his sons, they found notes indicating he was a suspect in his daughter's death, Reid said. He would not reveal the contents of the notes.
Ovaert's silver four-door Lincoln was entered into a law enforcement database and was found parked Tuesday at the Petro travel center at 7401 W. County Road 318.
Marion County Sheriff's Office deputies saw Ovaert's body in the vehicle and roped off the area around the car. Hamilton County sheriff's detectives were notified and responded to the scene.
People from the travel center told deputies Ovaert had purchased oil from the store and said the hood was up on his vehicle. One person said Ovaert told him he was having car trouble and that, later in the night, he noticed Ovaert sitting in the passenger seat.
Reid said Ovaert died from a self-inflicted gunshot wound.
He said investigators recovered some notes from the vehicle, but would not disclose their contents. He also said a small caliber revolver and a shotgun were in the car. He said they believe the revolver was used to shoot Provenzano and that Ovaert turned the shotgun on himself.
Reid said as the investigation continues, they are looking for a motive as to why the man would kill his daughter and take his own life.

We are considering a trip to Iran with a 5-month old. What is the local attitude to breast-feeding in public places? Is it legal? Are there any severe consequences? Do you need to use some special cover, etc.?
As an Iranian I can tell you that breast-feeding in public is NOT a crime (at least in Iran) and you don't need to expect any severe consequences for this. Mothers do feed their children here whenever/wherever needed and it's none of anybody's business to question them why they are feeding their children. It's however usually a good practice for breasts to be revealed the least possible while feeding the baby (maybe covered under the scarf). You are a foreigner and would be of more attraction to people here as foreigners usually are.
Have a nice trip!
I asked a lawyer about this to double-check. There is nothing mentioned in law to prohibit breast-feeding in public. Which means this act is not a crime unless interpreted contrary to Islamic rules. According to Islamic rules on the other hand, every action is permitted in case of emergency e.g. one is allowed to steal something to eat if dying from hunger. Therefore it's concluded that breast-feeding is always permitted because if the baby is not fed s/he will god-forbid die! And this is considered an absolute case of emergency.
Yes of course it is "legal",you can see young or middle aged mothers sitting in parks and streets, taking her breast out of their shirt and putting it in a baby mouth, no matter what age she/he is, new born to 5 or 6 years. Don't worry, come here and enjoy sight-seeing as well as breastfeed your baby, but do not forget to wear a scarf around your head, not wearing ""roo sary"" is illegal, so be careful. Have a nice trip.

Planet scope decision
Posted 09 January 2013 - 08:58 PM
So far I'm seeing three scopes, but want the best choice of the three but I have neither seen or used any. They are:
1) Parks 6" F/8 Newt
2) IOptron 150mm F/12 Mak
3) Skywatcher 100mm F/9 ED frac
Of the three which is the best buy? I live about 5 miles north of the city in South-Eastern Tennessee. My skies are decent when it's clear. I would like a very nice performer on Saturn, Jupiter, Mars and the Moon. Solar option is not that important to me. I do understand that the Mak would take a long time to cool down. I have an Atlas mount that would handle all of these scopes. I think I'm leaning towards the Parks newt for now. Can any of you fine gentlemen offer me some sound advice? Thank you

I think I'm going to get the ES152 doublet and get a fringe filter to view planets.
Posted 09 January 2013 - 10:02 PM
I haven't used any of those 3 telescopes, but I would go with the Parks as well. Aperture is king on planets, contrary to what some may tell you. I had an FS-102 and I never found it be a great planetary scope. Don't get me wrong, it provided aesthetically pleasing images but the detail was not there. And that's a world class 4-inch APO. I don't know how the Mak-Cass will stack up against the Parks. F/8 is nice for a Newtonian, generous diffraction-limited field.
I agree. I also think that 6 inches is where it just starts to get interesting. I had a 6-inch Intes mak that was wonderful on Saturn, perhaps less so on Jupiter: that is, fine, high-contrast detail was great, whereas low-contrast stuff was harmed a bit by the CO. If you can find an 8-inch f/6 Newt OTA for your mount, one with a good mirror, I would go with that, provided you have a way to rotate the tube. And don't be afraid to buy used.

I see that Gray/Graham already has an 8 inch F/5 Newtonian as well as an Atlas Mount. I suspect that this is at least as good and probably a better planetary scope than any of the three smaller scopes. I can see two ways to proceed. First would be a longer focal length 8 inch such as George suggests. The second would be to make sure the 8 inch F/5 has good mirrors, have both tested and reworked/replaced as needed.
The Skywatcher 100mm F/9 ED has the virtue that it will cool down much quicker than the others so it would be a reasonable choice for shorter sessions and sessions when there is not enough time to allow the others to reach thermal equilibrium.
Besides, everyone needs a decent 4 inch refractor, that's just how life is.

Ed D, that's an interesting idea. I haven't actually found pricing for such a thing except getting a re-coat job done which was under $100 for an 8" I think... It seems the practical solution is to get the newt out and do some tests before making any purchases. I've been manly concentrated in using imaging equipment thus far after a bad experience with an ES AR152 refractor and selling my Z12 dob. I thank you for your input, that is also an excellent option although I'm still leaning towards a longer focus instrument. I will definitely make note of that.
A few random thoughts/observations:
- The most important factor in getting the good planetary views, is the seeing... it takes a stable atmosphere, excellent seeing.
- Preparation of the scope is also critical. Thermal equilibrium, actively cooling the scope, these are the biggies. Setting the scope outside for an hour or two doesn't get it, a good quality, vibration free fan cooling the mirror and the scope is most important. Collimation needs to be spot on.
- Aperture is important, focal ratio is of much lesser importance. I have a fair number of telescopes and consider my old 12.5 inch F/6 Equatorially mounted Newtonian my best planetary scope but I rarely use it because it is massive (around 300 lbs) and requires a ladder. Instead, when I want the good planetary views, I generally use my generic 10 year old, 10 inch F/5 Dobsonian that has been small modifications to optimize it for higher magnifications. This includes a custom Floyd Blue fan, a modern GSO Crayford and reworking the bearings with Ebony Star-Teflon. I wear gloves to help control my body heat and on an excellent night, this scope is capable of 800x when splitting double stars.
With your 8 inch F/5, I would recommend a fan, Floyd recently made one for my 8 inch F/5, and making sure it is properly collimated. Since it will be on a tracking mount a Paracorr is not needed but "rotating rings" are a necessity, they make it so much easier to view comfortably.

Ah, I didn't see the 8-inch f/5 in the signature. Yes that would be better--if the optics are good, such a newt is capable of outstanding planetary views.
But I find a long focus 4-inch refractor, while fun to look through, basically useless by comparison. Just not enough light for the planets--you're down to 0.5 mm at just 200 power--and no wider a view than the 8-inch f/5. At this point, my only uses (visually) for a refractor, as opposed to a larger newt, are 1. birds 2. solar, and 3. extreme widefield. For that, I'm perfectly happy with my 80ED.
Posted 10 January 2013 - 04:13 PM
Of the scopes I own the Orion 10" newt puts up the best planetary images after doing the modifications. Listen to Jon about the collimation and thermal equalibrium being extremely important for planetary views. I came very close to selling this scope and now I am so glad I didnt! I did the mods (Destiny 3 vane curved spider, Protostar flockboard, and Antares Optics secondary) all at once so I cant say which helped the most but they all helped to improve the scope immensely. The addition of binoviewers has also helped improve my views on planets and doubles.
Posted 10 January 2013 - 04:26 PM
If you are really, really looking for a planet-optimized telescope, and are willing to go the full $1000, then you might take a look at this:
It is an 8" F/9 with a 15.6% central obstruction.
Of course I would just take the money and build my own scope - but limited to commercial choices I would have voted for #1 or #2. Then I followed the link in your post. I would take the larger and longer mirror in a heartbeat! Grab a few good orthos and a barlow, good to go.
Just bear in mind that a a mass-market optic is a *BLEEP*-shoot. Long mirrors are easier to make well than short ones, but a mass-producer can always screw that up too.
Posted 10 January 2013 - 05:57 PM
Ed D's suggestion of having the mirror tested and if warranted re-figured and re-coated is another good idea. I looked for about 30 minutes of where I could send my mirrors too ,and how much I would be looking at, but I seem to have hit a road block due to the small size of the mirror. I found one source that would re-test and re-work my mirrors for around 450$~.
My Moonlight is only a single speed focuser, and I think I can keep it that way all things considered
Mr. Issacs, I thank you for your commentary with generous thoughts and ideas that are more important to the subject than just buy another scope and be done with it! I agree 100% with you that I should at-least have a fan on my scope and have read proofs that they can make a huge difference. That will be my first step. I will need to find a supplier for that accessory (on the cheap if possible).
So it seems I'm at the point first and foremost to actually test this scope of mine first and see how it preforms before making any further telescope purchases, which is responsible sounding enough to me . I pulled a post from the achieves about the Parks AV8 system but found no real help here. http://www.cloudynig...1319195/page... One comment about half way down (may be a mis quote) says that an 8"F5 is more of a "general observing" type telescope than a planetary. That kinda talk suckers me into believing a long focus newt is the way to go, and not just a 6" but an 8" just like the AV8 (8" F6). So, I have three options now with the refractor being removed henceforth.
1) Run tests on what I have now with a fan installed to determine if I have a general observing scope or better.
2) If not send mirrors off for reworking in hopes of a better wave rating.
3) Look into either the 6" or 8" F8/F6 Parks Newt's as a better alternative. Or lastly, check into the Ioptron 150mm Mak instead.
If I could remove the Mak from the list I would. Cool down time is not too critical although tube currents would be, but how it would compare to the Parks 6" newt should determine if it stays or goes. Any more thoughts in line with my rambling is very much appreciated!

I tried making my own fans but I never really was able to eliminate the vibration. I recommend Floyd Blue's fans, they are simple, effective and free of vibration. I have 4 of them, the most recent is for my 8 inch F/5 and I also have my 10 inch f/5, my 12.5 inch F/4.06 and my 12.5 inch F/6 fitted with Floyd's fan.
Blue Sky Accessories: Floyd Blue, Blueman
If I recall correctly, they're about $35.

I've been looking into what actually constitutes a good planetary scope or more so optimizing a scope for planetary viewing. It seems some agree that focal ratio is not important in reflectors but central obstruction is. Seeing, optics ,and thermal issues being the most critical. Still, I see posts from older gentlemen wishing they still had a long focus newt from the days past. Those kinda comments I can empathize with and appreciate as good as gold. I've taken all this into account and still am lusting after a long focus newt "optimized" for plants. I guess I'm looking at a 6" f8 long tube newt preferably with a curved spider, dual speed focuser, fans, and flocking. If there is any other scope out there that would be better at observing Jupiter and so on, I sure would like to know. I haven't read a good thing once about Ioptron's 6" Mak yet, so the axe must come down on it too. lol

BALTIMORE (AP) - A dispute over public access to court records in the military trial of Pfc. Bradley Manning is moving from a military court to a civilian one.
The New York-based Center for Constitutional Rights initially petitioned an army court in 2012, seeking access to documents in the ongoing case, which charges Manning with leaking classified documents to Wikileaks.
In April, however, the U.S. military's highest court ruled it wasn't the right place for the dispute. On Monday, center lawyers will try making their argument in federal court in Baltimore.
The documents the center wants are generally available in civilian courts on the day they are filed. The army was much less open during pretrial proceedings. Since Manning's trial began earlier this month, however, the military has made documents available more quickly.

Some Mississippi lawmakers propose cutting off public access to records about state-issued permits for people to carry concealed guns.
Rep. Mark Baker of Brandon and Sen. Will Longwitz of Madison say they want the change because a newspaper in New York published names and other information about people there who have concealed-weapons permits.
The two Republicans say permit holders shouldn't have to worry about their address or other personal information being publicly disclosed.
Mississippi Press Association president Jim Prince says he supports Second Amendment gun rights but opposes putting restrictions on public records.
Under current state law, information about a concealed weapons permit becomes public record 45 days after the document is issued or an application is denied.
No permit is required for guns in homes, businesses or vehicles.

Ferry tolls on current ferries could be eliminated and proposed tolls on others never enacted if two lawmakers in Eastern Carolina get their way.
Senator Bill Cook (R-District 1) filed Senate bill - SB 792 this week that would remove mandatory tolls on the three N.C. Ferry routes that currently have a fee. The legislation would also prevent a fee from being added to the four routes that currently do not have a toll.
Senator Norman Sanderson (R-District 2) signed onto the legislation as a co-sponsor.
Cook says, "Even if all the ferry routes were tolled, the revenue would not go far in offsetting the significant cost of running and making capital improvements to the ferry system. There are several other alternatives to ferry tolling such as advertising or concession contracts that can generate much revenue. I will continue to advocate for responsible alternatives to ferry tolling on behalf of the constituents in Senate district 1."
The bill passed first reading in the Senate on Tuesday, May 20, 2014, and was referred to the Senate Transportation Committee for debate.
Both legislators filed similar legislation during the 2013 Legislative Session.
Cook says, "Ferry tolls are the same as tolls on bridges. If you are going to toll ferries, you should toll bridges and we are not tolling them so why toll ferries?"
Over the past several months there have been several hearings about proposed tolls with most of those attending speaking out.

I am expereincing that right now in my life. I moved back to Minnesota to live with my parents to take care of more my mother because she has cancer. When we dinner at the supper table my dad will pray and I close my eyes but while they are closed i roll them and say in my head what ever. It was funny when I had moved back home my dad had asked me to pray before I took my ma to her chemo appointment...I said no and walked out of the room. My mother respects my views though she doesn't agree with them. Here's an example. I had been taken my mother to church when she was feeling better. After church we (my ma, and few of her friends from the church) went out to eat. I couldn't hold it in any more and told one of her freinds to shut up. She had been bagging on progressives and the Democatics and etc for quite time over the summer...I'd had it. Since then I have not been out to eat with them and I think it doesn't have to do with that situation just my ma's cancer has gotten worse and for her to be around people is not healthy.
My dad asks me to "say the blessing" when we have family meals for thanksgiving and things like that, and I just go along with it. I obviously don't believe the things I am saying, but I feel like it is just better sometimes to keep the peace within the family. It is just a fight I want to avoid, especially in front of the grandparents and young cousins. I have been in the biology field for six years now, and I just feel like I know things they wouldn't understand about the world. It hurts sometimes that I have to hide my lack of belief, but just like it is not my place to trample on their beliefs, it is not their place to try to convert me. Which they would do. For the rest of my life. Maybe one day I can tell them. But I'm not there yet.
I relate Tyler. I am a 50 year old man and go through that with my parents. But I have some things that are little different. I am currently living with my very religious folks...both of them have terminal cancer. When I first moved back home a year ago, my ma knew about my disbelief but my dad didn't. He'd asked me to pray and my ma steped in and said she would. I don't know if later she had a talk with him that I don't believe any more. Its tough because my older sis is all in religion one day and then not when I meet up with her in person. I don't think she knows what she believes. Though I can say my ma does respect my opinions because a year ago in Spring, I got ariate with one of her crazy beleiving friend and told her to shut up because I was tired of listening to her bash liberals. My ma talked with me later and stated that she respects my opinions and thanked me for not saying anything to her other crazy friend that had been spending the weekend with us. I think she had just pushed me over the edge (LOL, I laugh about now because I can still see everyones expression at the table expect my ma's, I didn't dare look at her). Its tough, I will say that and espeically x-mas. Wish you well.
I hate to tell you, Jake but I'm 62 and they never stop. I had to move across the country.

US vows action in Syria even without UN backing
Published: Wednesday, August 28, 2013 at 8:35 a.m.
Last Modified: Wednesday, August 28, 2013 at 5:15 p.m.
WASHINGTON — The U.S. says it will take action against the Syrian government for alleged use of chemical weapons even without the backing of allies or the United Nations.
Britain added a hurdle to deliberations about a military strike on Wednesday when it went to the U.N. Security Council with a draft resolution that would authorize the use of military force against Syria. As expected, the five permanent members of the security council failed to reach an agreement as Russia reiterated its objections to international intervention in Syria.
State Department deputy spokeswoman Marie Harf says the U.S. cannot be held up in responding by Russia's intransigence at the United Nations.
Russia says the use of force without a sanction of the U.N. Security Council is a "crude violation" of international law.
