Sloan Transportation Products Ltd. (Sloan) today announced the launch of its MAXXGreen line of environmentally friendly products for the heavy duty trucking industry. The first two products being introduced are MAXXClean super-concentrate all-purpose cleaner and MAXXAbsorb floor cleaner and general absorbent. Both product lines are certified eco-friendly.
MAXXClean has been formulated in partnership with the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency to provide a safer, more environmentally preferable alternative to existing cleaning products without sacrificing performance. This highly concentrated, versatile cleaner is formulated to take on a wide range of cleaning jobs. It is able to quickly power off even stubborn soils and greases from any surface not harmed by water. It is available as a super-concentrate degreaser, vehicle wash, and window and glass cleaner.
MAXXAbsorb is the safe, green choice for clean up of hazardous liquid spills, including oils, fuels, solvents, and chemicals. It is a universal absorbent that is four times more absorbent than clay, ash, or sawdust. It is non-carcinogenic and has passed the testing limits for TCLP and TTLC landfill leachate testing. MAXXAbsorb is derived from coir, a renewable resource that is a completely homogenous material composed of millions of capillary micro-sponges, and it is totally organic, easy to use, and environmentally friendly.
"As more and more of our customers and the industry are working toward compliance with existing and developing regulations around environmental responsibility, we felt it was important to begin introducing products that support that philosophy," says Thomas Bronz, President of Sloan. "Sloan is committed to doing what's best for our customers, our industry, and our community, and we feel that our MAXXGreen line is another strong step in that direction."
MAXXClean and MAXXAbsorb are the first two environmentally friendly products in Sloan's MAXXGreen line. The company expects to add additional products to the line as they become available.
Sloan Transportation Products Ltd. (Sloan) today announced the launch of its new MAXXDuty pogo stick. The new product is the industry's first pogo made of composite materials and is redefining the category as the new benchmark for strength, durability, and ease of installation. The unique integrated hoop eliminates the need for zip ties, allowing operators to run hydraulic and wrapped lines through the hoop, while allowing for easy use of additional support clamps for coiled air and electrical lines. It is the only all-in-one solution available in the marketplace.
The MAXXDuty pogo is the product of a lengthy development process, which included several iterations exposed to extensive cycle testing and over a year of field trials in the harshest conditions. Its patented design features an extremely durable, injection molded, glass-filled nylon polymer top and base, and it allows for several attachment options. The rod is made in the USA of rigid, pultruded fiberglass. All of the composite, nylon, and fiberglass components are UV resistant, and any internal metal pieces are encapsulated in a protective casing. The mounting bolt, nut, and washer are the only exposed metal components on the pogo, and they are zinc-plated for corrosion resistance.
"We're very excited about this new design, and we believe our customers will be too," says Thomas Bronz, President of Sloan. "It demonstrates our revitalized commitment to finding opportunities in the industry to innovate and create products that offer new levels of quality, efficiency, and value."
The MAXXDuty pogo is available in a 40-inch length and is ideally suited for Sloan's MAXXDuty 3-in-1 and 4-in-1 wraps designed to efficiently manage air, electrical, and hydraulic lines, but it can be used with any heavy-duty line and cable configurations.
Sloan Transportation Products Ltd. (Sloan) today announced the release of its newly redesigned 45-inch heavy-duty pogo stick for over the road use. The new design features a thicker gauge heavy-duty spring and offers a life cycle that lasts three-times longer than the previous design. It is available in the choice of a chrome or zinc-plated dichromate steel support arm. Additionally, the base is over three-times larger and the new 3.75-inch diameter housing eliminates spring binding and provides increased resistance to sagging and bending.
Other features of the new design include:
- - Full 360° rotation
- - A swivel arm that pivots at the base
- - A forged steel mounting stud, 7/16-20
- - For use with all nylon and rubber air brake hoses
- - Improved packaging (new heavy-duty full overlap ECT 44 box)
- - Eyebolt and nut included
When tested, the Sloan heavy-duty pogo stick has consistently outperformed similar products. It has a better ability to handle increasing force when compared against the degrees from vertical. The new spring design provides more resistance along with the necessary flexibility needed to function properly. This product update replaces Sloan P/N 451057, 451058, 451059, 451060 part numbers.
Sloan has recently added standpipes
to their ever-growing selection of products. The benefits of standpipes are that no tools are required for assembly
and disassembly. They are a flexible
alternative for tight routing configurations and a common application for suspension
bags, gauges, behind the dash, and under the seat applications. They have molded
tube support for sizes 4 & 6 and meets DOT/SAE performance requirements.
Sloan Transportation Products Ltd. (Sloan) today announced the launch of its new website. The new site is user-focused and features quick and easy access to company information, sales and service contacts, product resources, and Sloan's newly updated extensive digital catalog.
As the centerpiece of the new Sloan website, the company's newly updated 200-page comprehensive digital catalog of OE and aftermarket air systems, electrical, and engine parts still functions as a searchable PDF document. It can be viewed online, downloaded and saved to the viewer's desktop, or printed in sections or in its entirety. Viewers can page easily through the catalog or move from section to section through convenient hyperlinks. This version of the catalog is another step by Sloan to fully integrate its product line into its web site and move toward full e-commerce capabilities, creating even greater ease of doing business for its customers.
"Sloan is committed to serving our customers and providing them with information about our company and products in the most efficient way possible," said Sloan president Thomas Bronz. "In today's economic environment, we understand the need to save our customers time and money wherever we can, and our new website and catalog are the latest demonstrations of how we are reinventing ourselves for the new marketplace."
A print version of the new Sloan catalog can also be ordered directly from Sloan or from any authorized Sloan distributor.
Sloan Coiled Air Assemblies are manufactured in the USA at our facility in Holland, Michigan, using the highest quality components available.

Sloan Transportation Products Ltd. (Sloan) today announced that it has partnered with Illinois-based Transportation Support Service, Inc. (TSS) to market the company's complete line of products to the heavy-duty aftermarket in Illinois, Wisconsin, North Dakota, South Dakota, and Minnesota.
"This partnership with Transportation Support Service is an exciting step for us," said Sloan Transportation Products president Thomas Bronz. "Our continued goal is to provide the best buying experience in the HD aftermarket, and this expansion of our supplier network gives our customer base in the Midwest even greater access to our growing line of products."
Paul Cimaroli, who brings over 40 years of industry experience to the partnership with Sloan, started TSS in 1997. The company began by providing aftermarket parts for Illinois and Eastern Missouri, and within a few years, the company's coverage expanded to Iowa, Wisconsin, the Upper Peninsula of Michigan, Minnesota, and the Dakotas. TSS strives to strategically grow market share and maintain the highest levels of fleet and end user relationships for their distributors in an effort to help them improve and grow their business.
We were very excited to have entered into the HDAW Pinewood Derby Challenge. This was the first year we participated in this industry event. We had a lot of fun and are already looking forward to next year! Sloan would like to thank the organizers of this event and all the hard work they put into making this a successful event.
Sloan Transportation Products Ltd. (www.sloantrans.com) today announced the appointment of Heather Letts as its new Market Manager for Canada and Lindsey Holstege as Marketing Analyst.
Letts has over 15 years of experience in the heavy duty and automotive parts and service industry. She has an extensive background in customer service and sales and will be responsible for all Canadian heavy-duty OE and aftermarket sales. Letts will provide additional product and sales training, as well as oversee Sloan's independent sales agencies in those territories.
Holstege served as a marketing intern with Sloan before joining the company full-time. She will be responsible for heavy-duty OE and aftermarket marketing support for Sloan's US and Canadian sales teams.
"We are excited to have both Heather and Lindsey join us," said Sloan Transportation Products president Thomas Bronz. "Our goal is to provide the best buying experience in the HD aftermarket, and this expansion of our sales and marketing teams will provide our customers with even greater support as we continue to grow our resource network."
Check your tires in a blink of an eye! Sloan has just made Link Cat's Eye available to you! This makes checking the air pressure in dual tires fast and easy. With just a glance tire pressures can be checked on efficient walk a-rounds.
Sloan is excited to announce they have added a MAXXGreen line. This is an environmentally friendly line of products. Included in this line are our three MAXXClean products. MAXXClean Super Concentrate Degreaser is available in 5 and 15 oz ready to use pouches, as well as in one-quart and one-gallon containers. MAXXClean Vehicle Wash is available in one-gallon and 5-gallon dispenser containers (perfect for the power washer). MAXXClean Window & Glass Cleaner is available in one-quart and one-gallon dispenser containers.
This self-fusing tape available in red, black, and blue is ideal for almost any application requiring a water proof seal and is an excellent insulator with high dielectric strength. It is ideal for high temperature applications while there is no adhesive residue upon removal and forms a permanent moisture tight seal.
These electrical connectors are a heat-less solderless terminal that installs in a fraction of time of comparable heat seal connectors. Simply strip the wire and crimp, activating the sealant, to create an environmentally sealed connection. The new sealant prevents the ingress of moisture and air, the nylon insulation provides maximum abrasion and puncture resistance, while the copper connection offers optimal electrical conductivity. These connectors seal out moisture causing corrosion and require no heat tools. Available in 22-18, 6-14, and 12-10 gauges.
Sloan has added another Michelin® product to the wiper blade line, the new Stealth wiper blades. The Stealth wiper blade is a duel beam blade design combining the conventional blade and the beam blade. This allows for a spring loaded tension along with a single beam providing a clean sweeping motion.
Sloan Rubber air brake hoses are made right here in the US from American made rubber hose and brass turned by American workers. They meet the highest specifications, including SAE J246, J476, J1402 and DOT 571.106 with an operating tempeture of -65°F to +200°F. At Sloan we use the highest quality material with state of the art, computer driven crimping machines that measure and ensure every hose is assembled correctly every time. With hourly quality checks including pull out, burst and ID flow tests, we make your safety our first priority.
Sloan has decided to add Parker lift axle control modules to the product line. These control modules have aluminum valve bodies and enclosures to prolong the life of the device. They can be mounted in the cab or externally on trucks and trailers. Sloan offers multiple configurations to help accommodate to your needs.

ZF-5896: Provide ability to stream media uploads
This is a fairly large change to the underlying process that we currently have for uploading media entries in Zend_Gdata. The previous process was to construct a Zend_Mime_Message reading the entire binary file to be uploaded into a single string and then passing that around within the class structure. This proved to be very inefficient for video uploads to YouTube, especially when dealing with file sizes that approach 1 gig.
The new functionality creates a Zend_MediaMimeStream object instead and uses a Zend_Gdata_HttpAdapterStreamingProxy for the Zend_Gdata_HttpClient. Most of the complexity is in Zend_MediaMimeStream which creates RFC compliant MIME messages and has a read() method that can be called with an arbitrary buffer size (currently set to 1024b). This way both XML and binary can be read and streamed to the server in increments.
The new functionality has been tested through various unit-tests and functional tests.
Functional tests were run both on Linux and Windows platforms and included:
- uploading a < 1mb file to YouTube
- uploading a 100mb file to YouTube
- uploading a 800mb file to YouTube
Video meta-data included Kanji characters to ensure that potential issues with strings could be discovered.
Committed to trunk in r14172.
Merged to 1-7 in r14174.

DAVE ALVIN, THE STATE ROOM, Friday, 9 p.m., $20
Dave Alvin is one of America's music treasures. Not only is he a dynamic songwriter and excellent guitar player; he is also a one-man encyclopedia of music history. I've had the chance to interview Alvin a few times, and there are few artists as engaging to talk to, about any number of topics. Whether you're talking about his legendary roots-rock band The Blasters, his brief stint with X in the '80s, or his long-running solo career, Alvin is always a worthy listen. A quote he has prominently displayed on his Web site says it all: "There are two types of folk music: quiet folk music and loud folk music. I play both." His latest album, Eleven Eleven, is a fine example of just that.
AN EVENING WITH HENRY ROLLINS: CAPITALISM, THE STATE ROOM, Sunday, 8 p.m., $30
Even if Henry Rollins had done nothing after his stint as lead singer of punk legends Black Flag, he would still be a towering figure of American alternative culture. The fact that he's spent the past 30 years expanding his artistic reach via writing, acting, leading the Rollins Band and entrancing spoken-word performances is proof that the passion he showed as a long-haired punk rocker is still boiling inside the guy. If you've never seen him do spoken-word, you're in for a treat–it's part standup comedy, part history lesson, part political diatribe, part travelogue and all entertaining.
Dan Nailen has written about music, arts and culture in and around Salt Lake City for Salt Lake magazine, The Salt Lake Tribune and Salt Lake City Weekly since 1998. He's currently a contributor to saltlakemagazine.com, and you can find more of his work at SLCene.com.

Sequenom and its subsidiaries will purchase Illumina's HiSeq 2000 platform and consumables for use in developing a noninvasive prenatal test designed to detect an overabundance of chromosome 21 in pregnant women, a result associated with fetal Down syndrome.
Under their three-year supply agreement, Sequenom and Illumina said they will work collaboratively toward a submission for regulatory approval of an in vitro sequencing-based diagnostic product for detecting fetal chromosomal abnormalities.
"This agreement is an important step in bringing our proprietary trisomy test to market, giving us the scalability, speed to market, and supply chain necessary to address the commercial opportunity of our noninvasive prenatal test for trisomy 21," states Sequenom chairman and CEO Harry F. Hixson Jr., Ph.D.
Last month Dr. Hixson said at a healthcare conference that Sequenom plans to submit a PMA application to the FDA for its SensiGene® Trisomy 21 (T21) test by the end of 2012. Sequenom representatives began talks with the FDA in January about the preclinical and clinical studies it would need to gain premarket approval.
Also in June Sequenom said it secured a $30 million credit facility—a $20 million term loan plus a $10 million revolving line of credit—to support the development and commercialization of new laboratory developed tests (LDTs).
Sequenom announced in May that its molecular diagnostics reference laboratory, the wholly owned subsidiary Sequenom Center for Molecular Medicine, completed testing samples from the pivotal Sequenom-funded Women and Infants clinical validation study to evaluate the clinical performance of its LDT. Study results are expected to be announced later this year following their submission and publication in a yet-to-be determined peer-reviewed journal.

Commentary on the Importance of Bridge Access for Bicycles in Denver
Submitted by Amy Thompson on
Interesting piece from Denver Urbanism about bicycle access on bridges in the Denver area.
Currently, both the 15th Street bridge and the approach to the 20th Street Bridge between Highlands and Downtown Denver on the Highlands side are under construction. Both reconstruction efforts are part of CDOT's continued work on I-25 which is being widened through this section of Downtown Denver to provide more capacity for automobiles. The reconstructed bridges will result in an attractive pedestrian walkway and better bicycle facilities along Central Street in the Highlands overlooking the highway. However, lacking from both these projects are significant improvements for bicycle access across the bridges. Details on the CDOT project can be found here.
Part of the reasoning for the lack of improvements is that people on bicycles should be using the series of bridges along 16th Street to access Downtown. This reasoning misses a key point. Bridges, by their nature, are pinch points that must accomodate multiple modes of transportation because all users have no choice but to funnel onto the bridge to cross what ever obstacle the bridge is crossing, be it a river, highway or railroad tracks.

I am a longtime Levenger fan, especially of your Shirt Pocket Briefcase. In November I received a Bomber Jacket version, monogrammed, as a gift. It's to replace one from the early 1990s. It is beautiful, from the pebbled leather to the plaid lining.But I like the earlier one better. It's showing wear, but maybe it's got another year left. The problem is the current sizing of the basic SPB, which you've sold for several years. I agree with other reviewers who find that the display card tends to slip out because the length is a hair too big. Needs to be snugger.The width is a lesser but valid concern. It does not fit in most of my shirt pockets as easily as the earlier version.Here are my measurements:The 90s SPB is 3 5/8 x 5 7/8 inches with display card gap of 4 1/4 long.The 2012 SPB is 3 3/4 x 6 with display card gap length of 4 1/2.My hangup is that top card tending to slip loose. I have to re-insert it before I take notes etc.This reminds me of having a great pair of shoes that just never fit quite right. They stay looking new in the closet, because unless the occasion demands it, I choose a more practical, comfortable pair.I'd return this SPB but for the monogram. Your current Essential Pocket Briefcase is smaller, but the horizontal bars hold cards far better than the Essential's corner slits. I just got a Circa Jotlet and may just start using that for every day.

I really wanted this Shirt Pocket index card holder to work for me. I live on index cards in my pocket, sometimes loose and sometimes clipped together.The Levenger Shirt Pocket Briefcase is a great idea that almost works. Unfortunately it does not fit width wise in many of my shirts (dress and work casual, size men's small). 3 x 5 cards always fit and a little extra on a side to hold the cards would still work. But the extra unneeded 1/4" width on one side to form the middle pocket makes the case too wide.I would also say that the thickness is overdone, with 4 plys of leather and 4 pockets. I want a minimalist 3x5 card holder. I think the outer active card holder plus one inside card pocket would work. Maybe two inside card holder pockets (as you say - for used and blank cards). I do not want the extra receipt pocket that causes the extra width and thickness.Finally, as noted in other reviews here, the outside card holder slots could be a little closer together so that cards do not pop out. Mine often pop out of the top or bottom and so I try to keep them as centered as possible, which is annoying.Why don't you work on a more pocket friendly and more card secure design?Thanks.GaryB

Comments about Levenger Bomber Jacket Shirt Pocket Briefcase:
Use this constantly. 3X5 cards fit easily and I can carry a stock of the cards. I have used on for several years. My son-in-law, is a Levenger fan, and I have been supplying him with Circa bits for a while. This year I realized how useful the "Shirt Pocket Briefcase" had been for me, so I placed a Christmas order for him. I know he will enjoy it as much as I do.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Career Changer
By Mell

For 25 years, my soldier husband carried 3x5 cards clipped together in his pocket for notes. I monogrammed this for his birthday to give him a stylish look for his new consulting gig! He loves it, and his monogrammed ivory cards!
Poor design
By bigsteve
from Undisclosed
I was replacing a worn-out Levenger pocket briefcase that had served me well for several years. The new one has too large an opening to securely hold 3x5 cards; they fall out, I was hoping it was an anomaly and had another one sent. It had the same problem.

Perfect to write on & Looks Great!
By StavrosStephen88
from Palm Springs, CA
The bomber jacket shirt pocket briefcase is beautiful to look at and very functional. It matches all of my bomber jacket products and it takes up no room and holds all of my 3 x 5 cards. It is perfectly organized to hold one card on one side so that you can make notes and write on it and on the backside hold additional cards that you will need for later. Great design Levanger, thanks again, Stavros
Perfectly meet the requirements
By Blackthorn
from Chesapeake, VA
This item was exactly what I was looking for to hold a small number of 3X5 cards. My requirement demanded the case to be leather, have a professional, manly and stylish look, and be transportable in my dress shirt pocket. The bomber leather pocket briefcase exceeded all my expectations. It received so many complements that I purchased two additional ones and gave them to my office mates who carry 3X5 cards held together by a small alligator clip in their shirt pockets. The gifts was very well received and put in immediate use.Ken WilliamsUSMC Ret.
Convenient For On-the-Go Note Taking
By Seanmul
from Virginia
This is the most convenient, stylish, and functional note taking device I've ever had. Several competing companies make 3x5 note card holders, but they are of inferior quality. The texture if the leather and strength of the stitching in this product are unmatched. This is a great gift idea for business professionals or for anyone in need of a sleek, handy note card holder.

S. Henderson
At 1:28 p.m. SPD Sgt. Keith Smith spoke with the manager of Stuttgart Apartments about a man who did not live in the complex cursing at her. She took the officer to the man and said she wanted him banned from the property. The man continued to yell and curse and was advised by the officer to settle down or he would be placed under arrest. The man also refused to give the officer his name and date of birth. The suspect turned around to be placed under arrest because he did not want to give his name. Smith put handcuffs on the man and placed in the back of his patrol car. The man started jumping up and down in the patrol car and continued to yell and curse. He was transported to the police department and booked on obstruction of governmental operations and disorderly conduct charges.

I thought this was great! I'm a spicy Texan so I added a small can of roasted green chilies, a clove of garlic, and a tablespoon of chili powder, I also sautéed the zucchini a bit before adding the rest of the ingredients. I used green enchilada sauce from New Mexico that was awesome. I used a bit smaller pan and cut it into 8 servings. I served it with a salad and roasted corn on the cob. Repeating the corn on the side was great, becuase it's summertime and you can't have too much fresh corn.
Chilaquiles Casserole
From EatingWell: June/July 2006
Our version of this enchilada-style chilaquiles casserole is packed with nutritious beans and vegetables. Canned prepared enchilada sauce has great flavor and keeps the prep time quick. It can vary in heat level so find one that suits your taste. If you want to eliminate the heat altogether, try a green enchilada sauce (which is often milder than red) or substitute two 8-ounce cans of plain tomato sauce.
162 Reviews for Chilaquiles Casserole
I thought this had such great flavor for something that is so low in fat and calories. I made it exactly as the recipe stated but added one chopped jalapeno and sprinkled some cilantro on top before serving. This will be a regular in our house!
Added a half pound bag of salad shrimp for extra protein and used only 6 whole wheat tortilla wraps. otherwise followed the recipe exactly. You have to let the casserole sit for 10-15 minutes to let some of the water from the tomatoes absorb. Everyone loved this and couldn't believe how healthy and low calorie yet filling this is. Tastes even better the next day.
I haven't made this yet, but I find it difficult to believe that this is supposed to serve TEN people using ONE can of black beans and ONE can of diced tomatoes!!! No wonder several respondents mentioned finding it difficult to stick to the portion size...
As a San Diego native now living in Massachusetts, I make all our mexican food as I haven't found any good restaurants serving authentic mexican food. I added a diced jalapeno, one-half a red pepper and extra cumin. Added hot sauce at the table

Every woman deserves true love and affection. So why do most women feel they are not being treated the right way by men?
Most dates start out well, with lots of attention and compliments. However, once things settle, he loses interest and becomes disrespectful. You become an inconvenience, and wait desolately for him to be a great guy again.
Unfortunately, this never happens, because guys will simply do what they want once they have you. They do not do this out of malice; it is just how guys are. Rather than the paradise you expected, you only receive scraps of attention and affection.
Which begs the question, are you going to beg at his feet for the rest of your life?
Settling for much less is an affront to your dignity, self-worth, and respect. It proves to him that you are too desperate to demand the affection you deserve.
Let's look at 5 lousy behaviors from so-called nice guys, so that you see them for what they are. This will hopefully help you stand up for what you desire, and reject anything less.
1. He receives late night phone calls
Every woman knows how annoying and intrusive late calls can be. Tolerating this behavior is detrimental to your self esteem.
You may think you are giving him freedom to be who he is, but late calls are usually from women trying to irritate you. No matter how grateful you are for getting a new guy, stooping this low will leave you feeling used, unappreciated, and jealous.
2. He is always late
He is never punctual with you, and always keeps you waiting for him. To make matters worse, he never calls to say he will be late, or even cancel. Yet he always rushes to keep time with his friends.
Annoyingly enough, he gets very irritated or defensive when you complain about it. This really hurts, especially when he shouts at you for keeping him waiting. This is a very crummy habit.
3. He forgets your birthday
Birthdays, anniversaries, and other important dates are treasured by those who love you. If your man consistently forgets your birthday, he undoubtedly thinks you are not important.
Does he remember his own birthday, his mother's, or friend's? Does he dodge buying you gifts by giving silly excuses? Does he expect you to remember his birthday, or buy him presents? This is a man in love with himself, not you.
4. He uses foul language
If your man regularly uses foul language with you, wake up and smell the coffee. You most likely feel insulted every time he talks to you, especially in front of other people. This clearly shows he does not respect or value you.
Although swearing has become common, a man who treasures his woman never uses disrespectful language with her. Put a stop to this, for the sake of your dignity.
5. He constantly uses sexual innuendo
A woman can feel like a sexual object, if her man incessantly refers to her in sexual terms. Men use sexual innuendo with women they only want to sleep with. A man who cares and considers you his true love, will not treat you like a piece of meat.
Sexual innuendo may be mistaken for sexual attraction, but it is not. It is demeaning and disrespectful.
As a woman, you deserve to be in a loving relationship, where you feel pampered and cared for. These 5 lousy habits from men are the early signs of an abusive, and psychologically damaging relationship.

Reviews for Slow-Cooked Enchilada Dinner
"Love this recipe, delicious and so easy make! Foil made it so easy to get out of slow cooker! I looked just like the picture."
"Tasty recipe that's not overly spicy. The hint about the foil strips made it easy to remove from the slow cooker. This tastes good cold as leftovers the next day, too.Feel free to add salsa to the mix to spice it up."
"Excellent re old...I added the Jack cheese in the meat mixture and used the shredded cheese on top of each layer. easier to bake in oven. but not for two hours"
"My family loved this recipe. Instead of the foil strips I used a crock pot liner. It made removal from the slow cooker very easy. I did not use the cumin-mainly because I did not have any. But I do like the taco seasoning packet suggestion. I'll try that next time."
"My family is gluten and dairy intolerant so we eat it out of bowl. They love it! We make it at least twice a month..."

no Kingdom invites Yemeni parties for talks GCC announces initiative to end the crisis in Yemen
GCC invites Yemeni parties to meet in the Kingdom
April 11, 2011
An extraordinary meeting of the Foreign Ministerial Council of the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) concluded in Riyadh yesterday with the release of a statement outlining an initiative to end the current crisis in Yemen. "The GCC countries invite the Government of Yemen and the opposition parties to meet in Saudi Arabia, under the umbrella of the Cooperation Council for the Arab Gulf States," the statement read. Negotiations will be conducted in accordance with a set of pre-approved goals, it continued. These include: the maintenance of the unity, security and stability of Yemen; the fulfillment of the aspirations of the Yemeni people for change and reform; a smooth transfer of power based on national consensus; the removal of political and security-related tensions; and the ceasing of all forms of retaliation and prosecution.
According to the agreement, the Yemeni President will announce the transfer of his powers to the Vice-President. A government of national unity will be formed under the chairmanship of the opposition with the power to run the country politically, militarily and economically and to write a constitution and hold elections.
The GCC reiterated its concern at the ongoing deterioration of the security situation in Yemen and stressed the importance of preserving its unity and stability.
The meeting was attended by Saudi Foreign Minister Prince Saud Al-Faisal; Bahraini Foreign Minister Sheikh Khalid bin Ahmed bin Mohammed Al-Khalifa; UAE Minister of State for Foreign Affairs Dr. Anwar Mohammed Gargash; Qatari Prime Minister and Foreign Minister Sheikh Hamad bin Jassem bin Jabr Al-Thani; Omani Minister Responsible for Foreign Affairs Yusuf bin Alawi bin Abdullah; and Kuwaiti Deputy Prime Minister and Foreign Minister Sheikh Mohammad Sabah Al-Salem Al-Sabah.

FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. - Idaho's Jeremy Klas and Mykael Bothum left the 2010 NCAA Indoor Track and Field Championships as All-Americans on Saturday after a pair of strong performances at the national meet over the weekend.
Klas, a sophomore from Moscow, Idaho (Moscow HS), cleared 5.25m (17-2.75) in the men's pole vault to tie for ninth in his first career national meet. Bothum, a senior from Hermiston, Ore. (Hermiston HS), finished sixth in the women's shot put for the second year in a row with a toss of 16.55m (54-3.75).
Klas was a trend-setter for the Idaho men all year long. In the team's opening meet, he and teammates Lucas Pope and Mike Carpenter broke the former 25-year-old school record in the event. Klas and Pope steadily pushed the record up until Klas went 5.38m (17-7.75) at last weekend's Husky Last Chance meet to take hold of the record.
Klas out-did Pope on attempts to take the Western Athletic Conference title in the event two weekends ago to give the Vandal men their third-straight WAC indoor pole vault title. When Klas clinched his NCAA spot last weekend, he became the first Idaho indoor qualifier and first men's vaulter, indoor or outdoor, since Dave Martindale's NCAA champion performance in 1952.
Bothum, a 2009 All-American in the women's shot put, repeated as sixth-place finisher. She capped off her indoor career in strong fashion as repeat WAC indoor champion and WAC Indoor Field Performer of the Year. Her in last two indoor seasons, she has only finished behind collegiate competition twice - both times at the NCAA Championships.
The U.S. Track and Field and Cross Country Coaches Association awards All-America certificates to the top eight overall finishers in each event, as well as the top eight American finishers. Bothum earns All-America honors by virtue of her top-eight finish, while Klas earns his by being one of the top eight Americans in his event.
Since 2000, Idaho has sent 12 different athletes to the NCAA Indoor Championships and 11 of those earned at least one All-America honor. Vandal track and field athletes have earned 13 All-America certificates in indoor track and field since 2005.

Progression or Regression: Dolphins secondary
Ding dong, the scapegoat is gone.
As bad as Gibril Wilson performed last season (and he was bad), last year's expensive free agent signing wasn't the sole reason the Miami Dolphins secondary made fans hold their nose last season, allowing an obscene 8.2 yards per pass attempt in 2009.
The unit lost Will Allen, their veteran leader, to a knee injury early. Allen was the one mentor who helped the entire group breakdown each week's opponents, and helped with in-game calls and adjustments.
Two rookie cornerbacks - Sean Smith and Vontae Davis – were learning on the fly, and boy were passes flying their way. They made plenty of mistakes the coaches hope they've each learned from heading into their second season as starters.
And most importantly, the defensive front was hanging the secondary out to dry on third downs, failing to apply sufficient pass rushing pressure.
How did the Dolphins fix those issues, ultimately fixing a troublesome secondary? That's what we'll be breaking down in our second progression or regression series. If you missed the first, which was on the offensive line, check it out here.
THE OLD: Starting free safety Gibril Wilson was cut, and has since signed with Cincinnati), and starting nickel cornerback Nate Jones signed a four-year, $13.6 million contract with Denver as a free agent.
THE NEW: Five rookies were added. CB Nolan Carroll (fifth-round pick), S Reshad Jones (fifth-round pick), CB A.J. Wallace (undrafted rookie), DB Ross Weaver (undrafted rookie), SS Jonathon Amaya (undrafted rookie) are all competing to make the 53-man roster.
THE DEPTH CHART: CB – Vontae Davis, Will Allen, Evan Oglesby, Nolan Carroll, A.J. Wallace; CB – Sean Smith, Jason Allen, Nate Ness, Ross Weaver; FS – Chris Clemons, Reshad Jones; SS - Yeremiah Bell, Tyrone Culver, Jonathon Amaya
THE BREAKDOWN: The Dolphins have kept five or six cornerbacks and four safeties on the 53-man roster the past two seasons. They generally keep two more defensive backs on the practice squad, and this season likely will see the same.
There are a tone of new faces in the Dolphins secondary, but none of them are established NFL players. And even fewer have a respectable body of work (maybe Reshad Jones does) which hints it's a certainty they'll be immediate contributors at this level. Even though replacing Nate Jones with a healthy Will Allen should upgrades the nickel spot, it's irresponsible to justify that this unit has progressed.
While Davis and Smith will likely hopefully improve now that they've got a year's worth of experience under their belt, it's highly likely that Wilson's replacement at free safety (Clemons, Reshad Jones or Culver) will experience some growing pains as a first-year starter. Until one of this unit's young newcomers proves he can contribute more to the secondary than Jason Allen has the past few seasons the Dolphins secondary has to go into the regression category. But there's tremendous potential for growth across the board.

Full SubmissionSummary of the Preparatory Work of ROS4C towards COP 17 and RIO+20 CONTEXT In preparation of the Conference of the Parties in Durban (COP 17) from November 28 to December 9, 2011, ROS4C, a network of about 150 Civil Society Organisations (CSO) in Cameroon, has been actively working for effective participation in COP 17. The purpose of COP 17 is based on Climate Change (CC) and sustainable development. In addition to the polluting industrial practices of developed countries, CC is equally related to the abusive exploitation of tropical and temperate forests which influences and degrades the life cycle of all living organisms and human being. The topics in the agenda of RIO+20 are Green Economy in the Context of Sustainable Development and Poverty Eradication and Institutional Framework for Sustainable Development and could open great opportunities for the consolidation of the cornerstones towards effective greening of the economy of African countries which are the most vulnerable to the effects of Climate Change (CC). CLIMATE CHANGE: CHALLENGES AND THREATS TO CAMEROON AND AFRICA AT LARGE Africa severely suffers from the outcomes of climate change. According to the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, Africa?s land mass and geo- physical characteristics shows it will warm one and a half more times compared to global average. Although Cameroon as well as countries of the Congo Basin currently contributes negligibly to CC, the country suffers the consequences of this phenomenon including; scarcity of water resources, decline in crops production, decreasing farming activities, scarcity of pasture lands, land degradation, rapid deforestation and desertification, coastal erosion, loss of biodiversity, imminent discrimination and violent against women, force migration, loss of sovereignty of natural resources, the burden of struggle to continue the existence of African communities living in harmony with nature, temporary and spatial disturbances of rainfalls patterns with negative impacts on the different sectors of development, drought and floods, increase in conflicts related to scarcity of resources, increase in waterborne diseases such as repeating cholera epidemics, long dry seasons (leading to decrease in streams flow) specifically in the Sahelian part of the country, degradation of mangroves etc. In view of the above mentioned consequences and considering the following: The failures of previous negotiations (the unsuccessfulness of the Framework Convention on CC, Convention on Biodiversity, lack of funding for the convention on desertification, increasing loss of certain species) which neither considered the urgency of CC , its causes and implementation on the African people and their livelihood, The constraints attached to all the funds that were available to mitigate the effects of climate change like the clean Development Mechanism (CDM) fund which did not benefit developing countries, especially Africa; The land issues - in the framework of REDD+ and Green economy millions of hectares are in the process to be conceded to multinational companies for agricultural purpose, bio-fuels and carbon offsets to the detriment of the indigenous people at the level of Cameroon and Congo Basin countries, We, ROS4C expect effective and efficient participation of Congo Basin CSO at the negotiations of COP17 to effectively tackle the issue of vulnerability, poverty as well as the poor commitment of Annex1 (A1) countries and emerging economies for CO2 emission reduction through fair and binding agreements in Durban. We hope that Durban will be the occasion to extend the commitment period of the Kyoto Protocol (KP) and to reach a good agreement on green climate fund and other fast climate fundings. DEMANDS FOR DURBAN AND RIO+20 The negotiations in Durban should be addressed with respect to the two track of the BALI Road Map approach to protect the Congo Basin interests. We expect actions in the following domain in line with those of Pan African Climate Change Justice Alliance (PACJA), Climate Action Network International (CAN International), UN Conference on Sustainable Development, African Ministerial Conference on the Environment (AMCEN), Climate Justice Now, ACCRA Caucus, Franclimat etc. Developed countries must agree to reduce their CO2 emission to 25-40% below the level of 1990 by 2020, become carbon neutral before 2050 and adopt a second commitment period of KP by 2013. More so, the call of over 100 countries and civil societies to keep temperature increase below 1,5�C should be considered and developing countries should have equitable access to global atmospheric space; Measures to stop massive deforestation leading to increase desertification in the Congo Basin will be considered and the international community will reinforce their support to African states in sectors such as sustainable management of forests through implementation of mechanisms of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC); Real opportunities for financing CSO and Government projects related to climate, capacity building, transfer of green technology and linking the science-policy interface for environmental sustainability will be accessible considering the specific needs of Africa for addressing implementation gaps; Development models for efficient, inclusive and sustainable economic growth through resource efficiency will be reoriented while recognizing Africa?s interests on the Green Economy within the context of sustainable development, poverty eradication, institutional frameworks, needs and challenges faced by countries emerging from conflict.

This protocol is the only binding with clauses that could effectively lead to reduction and mitigation of Greenhouse Gas (GHG) emissions by A1 countries; A long-term structure for fair and effective international action on climate change by supporting civil society in building capacities of local communities to adapt to climate change should be developed; Adequate, predictable and sustainable finance for REDD+ should be ensured to deliver the substantial reductions of CO2 and Measuring Reporting and Verification (MRV) should be clearly defined; The final commitment of developing countries for REDD+ should be linked to that of developed countries to continue the Kyoto Protocol; REDD+ and as well as Green Economy should not be an occasion of alienation of people land and forests rights; Safeguards in relation to REDD+ should be clearly defined while taking into account the rights of the indigenous and local people and lay more emphasis on gender mainstreaming;

Develop clear, just and equitable policies, clauses and mechanisms for REDD+ and Green Economy to avoid what could appear as a possible future climate world war; To Cameroon and Congo Basin Countries Governments A national framework for consultation on the management of the thematic of land tenure should be established so that together we could identify the opportunities and threats posed by the granting of extensive land to large multinationals for agriculture and the production of bioenergy in the context of Green Economy and REDD+; The government should communicate its opinions on the different points on the Durban agenda and have a preparatory meeting with members of CSO; The government should establish a consultation platform with the CSO on the different points on the Durban agenda and Rio+20; Promote laws that guarantee the development of renewable energies and Green Economy; Promote REDD+ governance and clear mechanism for the benefit by the communities of REDD+ fundings; Clearly develop institutional responsibilities and networking on the different pillars of climate change negotiation at national level; To the Civil Society A pressure group should be established on the land tenure system in Cameroon and Congo Basin countries in order to preserve population's rights and the right of young people to have access to land for the creation of sustainable and Green employments; Oppose to geo-engineering, which could be disastrous to humanity; Avoid Soil Carbon Markets at Agricultural level; Encourage market carbon for peat soil in order to protect mangroves and raffia wetlands in high land regions;

To COMIFAC (The Commission for the Central African Forest) COMIFAC and all negotiators be prepared to strongly defend the challenges/ interests of the Congo Basin; COMIFAC should communicate their opinions on the various items on the Durban agenda especially about the REDD+ issue, land tenure and none market option for REDD+; A framework for consultation between the Congo Basin CSO and COMIFAC should be established to better exploit the opportunities that will be opened in Durban; A schedule for strategic meetings should be prepared between COMIFAC negotiators and Congo Basin CSO representatives present in Durban for regular consultations; To ECCAS (Economic Community of Central African States) ECCAS should transparently establish funds for the support of Civil Society on climate actions both on the field in terms of projects and their participation in international negotiations; Open a window for Congo Basin CSO projects on REDD+, Adaptation, Renewable energies and Green Economy for direct access for funds; Support Congo Basin CSO independent observatory of REDD+, Green Economy and land tenure; ROS4C expectations for RIO+20 At Rio de Janeiro, 4-6 June 2012 Towards Green Economy for the Emergency of African Nations RECOMMENDATIONS FOR RIO+20 Governance Agreement should be established for the development of a global instrument that ensures full liability for any social or environmental damage global corporation causes; Solutions should be arisen to mobilize innovative funds (Financial transaction taxes, taxes on air and sea transportation), in view of making up the public budget?s shortfall observed in several donor countries; Agreement should be established to commit developed and developing Countries to bring the absolute consumption of renewable and non-renewable resources in a fair and equitable manner; CO2 Emission Reduction Adequate, predictable and sustainable finance for Green Economy should be ensured to deliver the substantial reductions of CO2 and Measuring Reporting and Verification (MRV) should be clearly defined; Implementation of guidelines for Green Economy should lead to maintain low CO2 emission and to develop green technologies in economic sectors in Africa; Policies, subsidies to combat corruption that drive deforestation should be established to achieve zero deforestation economy and stop the production, trade, import and consumption of goods stemming from deforestation and degradation such as unsustainable timber and palm oil; Rights of Indigenous and Vulnerable Peoples Safeguards in relation to Green Economy should be clearly defined while taking into account the rights of the indigenous and local people and lay more emphasis on gender mainstreaming; Safeguards in relation to Green Economy should ensure the involvement of citizens at all levels of decisions making at national and international level concerning their land; Support for the establishment of national frameworks for consultation on the management of the thematic of land tenure should be established in the aim to identify the opportunities and threats posed by the granting of extensive land to large multinationals for agriculture and the production of bio-energy in the context of green economy;

For couples who want a permanent form of birth control but don't want to go under the knife for a tubal ligation or vasectomy, there's positive news about a decade-old nonsurgical procedure called hysteroscopic sterilization. How it works: Doctors place tiny metal coils or silicone inserts into the fallopian tubes via the cervix. In three months, scar tissue forms around the implants and closes the fallopian tubes just as a tubal ligation would, but without the risk of general anesthesia. The 30-minute procedure is usually done in a doctor's office (don't worry—there'll be pain relievers and local anesthetics) for the price of an office copay. A recent analysis of Essure-brand metal coils in Reviews in Obstetrics & Gynecology found that no women who used them got pregnant over nine years of follow-up—making the product even more effective than tubal ligations, which have a 1 percent failure rate. Women using Adiana-brand silicone inserts had a slightly higher pregnancy rate: about 2 percent during a five-year period.

Rated 4.2 out of 5 by 6 reviewers.
Rated 5 out of 5 by wiscogirl Awesome Value Love this! My previous pour over dripper had a shut-off valve that "held" the coffee until brewed. I was worried that I wouldn't achieve the same taste without the valve. It turns out that the small hole allows the coffee to drip very slowly so that great taste is achieved with much less hassle, and at a small fraction of the cost! It also stores easier, looks better and fits all of my mugs (even my skinny travel mug). I'm the only coffee drinker in my house, but will definitely buy another for when I have guests. December 29, 2015
Rated 5 out of 5 by AllAboutThatBasil Simple and perfect Ideal coffeemaker. Makes a much more delicious cup of coffee than any drip coffeemaker and takes up 1/10th of the space! This fits best on top of a mug (even if it's pretty wide-mouthed) and doesn't take very long at all. I live in a tiny apartment so I love that I can just make a cup of coffee and then put it in the sink to cool off. It is SUPER easy to clean and then I can put it in the cabinet and have clear counters! It is thick ceramic too so I don't have to worry as much as I would with my glass french press. March 16, 2015
Rated 5 out of 5 by Shelly26 Delicious, smooth, simple to brew coffee The coffee made using this pour-over method is smooth with wonderful flavor. While my drip coffee machine works just fine, I find that the coffee is not as tasty (probably thanks to all the plastic coffee travels through in a coffee machine). I do suggest "pre heating" this product by pouring a little boiling water through it prior to making the coffee. This does improve the flavor of your brew, and helps your coffee filter "stick" and stay in place. One of my favorite things about this little guy is how easy it is to clean! At this price, even if it doesn't hold up for long, I can certainly afford another. October 24, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Thankful Mother Red Euro Coffee Dripper Rec'd.'coffee dripper' as a Mother's Day gift, glad my daugh listened to her boyfriend & gave it to me Sat. Had my 1st cup Sun AM even though running late still had time for my flavored coffee. Instead of using paper filters I used the gold mesh basket that came w/our coffee maker. This A.M. I used skim milk instead of water. Voila`, a wonderful latte` made with the coffee I bought at Wld.Mkt.'Very, Very Vanilla'. Heat to just boiling 1-1/2 Cups water or milk pour over 3 sm. coffee scoops of coffee or 1 of the pre-pkg'd. 1-Cup packs for the large expensive machines. Love having hot FRESH coffee anytime!! May 14, 2012
Rated 4 out of 5 by Walt A real beauty for large mouth receiving containers The orifice from which the brew drips is so short that the liquid runs to the outer edge of the area intended to fit inside the receiving liquid. That is no problem when the receiving container has a wide mouth; however, to fill my thermos I made a lathe turned adapter and found that much brew dripped outside the area above the thermos mouth and ran down the outside. I will glue a very small funnel beneath the orifice that will direct the dripping liquid to remain centered. Otherwise, I admire the Ceramic Drip Coffer Filter holder. Just be sure to premeasure the liquid needed for the receiving container as the filling process is not visible. April 4, 2015
Rated 1 out of 5 by Evangeline Tiny hole = NO DRIPPING I was originally attracted to the bright red as so many of this ceramic cones are white and our #2 cone is white. I was in the market for a #4 cone and this one is GORGEOUS. It's color and form are fantastic - and then the hole drilled in the darn thing is TOO SMALL TO USE> it's a fail. save your money.

One Round Remains for Men's Golf at NCAA Regional
The Princeton men's golf team remained in 13th place at the NCAA Regional in Pullman, Wash., after Friday's second round.
No. 1 California still leads the field, standing at 35-under through 36 holes, 11 shots better than USC. The top five teams will advance to the NCAA Championship at Georgia Tech in two weeks, and the two Pac-12 schools along with Saint Mary's and TCU are in the top four with San Diego State and Pacific tied for fifth. Ball State and Virginia Tech are just two shots back of that group at -11, with BYU next at -3.
Princeton stands at 13-over through two rounds. Greg Jarmas, tied for 34th at 1-under, leads the Princeton contingent, three shots in front of the Tigers' 18-hole leader, Bernie D'Amato, at +2.
Individually, USC's Sam Smith, who has had the two lowest rounds of the tournament, leads the field at -18, six shots better than Cal's Michael Weaver. The top player not advancing with one of the five teams will also go to the NCAA finals, and depending on the fifth-place team tie, that standard is either with Pacific's Eric Sugimoto at -9 or San Diego State's Riccardo Michelini at -7.
Princeton's results are below, and results for all teams can be found here via Golfstat. Princeton's final round Saturday will start at 12:20 p.m. ET.

Here, how to smooth things out safely—at home
New, improved technology allows women with dark hair on their bodies to safely eliminate that unwanted fuzz with an at-home laser.
($449; triabeauty.com)
Because hair on limbs decreases with age, less aggressive modes of removal, such as an in-shower depilatory, are useful options.
($11; drugstores)
Strip-free kits keep things simple for at-home waxers. How they work: Wax hardens on the skin, and then you pull it off, along with unwanted hair.
To erase face hair (a side effect of aging), you may like the efficiency of a facial depilatory, $21, olay.com.
Got skin that's becoming increasingly sensitive? Choose a razor with three or more blades; it will give you a close, chafe-free shave.
($10; drugstores)
If regular waxing inflames your skin, a sugar-based remover may be your solution. It sticks to skin less than wax does, reducing the risk of irritation.

The UCLA men's soccer team has added German midfielder Felix Vobejda to its 2013 squad. Vobejda will enter the 2013 season as a freshman and will be eligible to play for the Bruins this fall.
Vobejda hails from Bielefeld, Germany and attended the Kreisgymnasium Halle School in Halle (Westfalen), Germany for eight years. He played his club soccer for Germany's VfL Osnabrück, where he helped lead the club to the Provincial Cup in Niedersachsen, qualifiying Osnabrück's professional team for the German Professional Cup. Vobejda also won the Provincial Youth Cup with the club twice in Northrhine-Westphalia.
Vobejda will join eight other freshmen this fall to make up the consensus No. 1 ranked recruiting class in the nation. UCLA will also add three other transfers in 2013 to give them 12 newcomers for the fall season.
The Bruins are coming off of a 13-3-3 season in 2012 and return six starters off of last year's squad that won its fourth Pac-12 title in five years and reached the NCAA Tournament for the 30th consecutive year. UCLA opens its season in just over two weeks at the adidas/IU Credit Union Classic in Bloomington, Ind. The Bruins will begin the tournament with a match against the Notre Dame Fighting Irish on Friday, Aug. 30 at 3 p.m. PT before taking on defending NCAA champion Indiana on Sunday, Sept. 1 at 12 p.m. PT.
