Skip to comments.Video Shows Women Climbing U.S.-Mexico Border Fence in Less Than 18 Seconds
Posted on 01/18/2011 12:04:18 PM PST by markomalley
Less than 18 seconds. That's how long it took two young women to climb a U.S.-Mexico border fence that costs millions of dollars in taxpayer money.
In a video shot by filmmaker Roy Germano, two women show how easy it is to reach the top by climbing the fence's concrete-filled steel pipes in less than 18 seconds, MyFoxHouston.com reports.
(Excerpt) Read more at foxnews.com ...
Why isn't the fence electrified?
Ditto on the double fence with landmines. This is a war. We are being invaded. People in the wrong place ought to be treated as enemy combatants.
Who says they tried to make the fence hard to circumvent?
Both the Democrats and Republicans want open borders. Why would anyone think they would do anything about it that works?
This just reinforces my view that the agencies formerly known as INS remain the most incompetent in the government.
And that's 8 months pregnant with one leg!
Inhumane, I suppose.
Where the hell is the razor wire? Let them try and pass through that stuff.
Cover them with razor wire? Moats on the US side full of snakes? They are not trying very hard (the US gov't, I mean).
Looks like they need to grease the fence.
No concertina?
It's more of a fitness test, designed to keep medical costs lower.
so I guess Mexico has a corner on the Gold with their 2012 Womens Olympic Fence Climbing Team....
"Why isnt the fence electrified?"
Same reason as why there is no razor wire on top of the fence.
Where the hell is the razor wire? Let them try and pass through that stuff.
I have seen video of a security fence on the South Africa-Mozambigue border that is not only made of razor wire, but with the flip of a switch, can be charged with a deadly electric current. So why was Nelson Mandela allowed to have one and we aren't?
One of the best ways t take care of this is to simply man the border with enough troops to secure it.
Obama has refused to do this, while hiding from the American public that Mexico's government is heading for a state of utter collapse.Wiki leak State Dept. memos have verified this.
All we can do is rid ourselves of the idiot leftists who are in power and get a government who will observe its constitutional duty to secure the nation from this invasion.Anything less than that will never work.Its not about the physical border itself, its about manning it with soldiers and firepower.
Climbing — you want to see some climbing? Just try to keep this guy outside a fence.
Watch the move he pulls at 1:13 mark. Unbelievable.
Seriously, they should have grabbed a couple babes from Sabado Gigante and let them climb it. They could even stay once they cleared it.
"Better than Pyle. Sign 'em up. We'll make Americans out of those ladies yet."
Well, hell.. let's just create little accessible compartments so they can slide their weapons through more easily. If they're going to occupy parts of the United States, why make it hard for them?
That ain't the US border fence. That's a relic
As was noted in the video - much or even most of the fence was not built to specs. It was supposed to be a Double fence with a patrolled road in between with all kinds of sensors detecting the intruders in the road in between the fences. And the concrete filled pipes with out other barriers was not a part of the approved design.
Where built correctly - the fence works. Build a car incorrectly and it doesn't run or run well. So it is no surprise that the border fence doesn't work along much of its length.
Unlike other countries, we are not allowed to use it. The Southern Poverty Law Center, ACLU and the Mexican government disapproved.
So there can be no objection by the La Raza & Reconquista folks, can there?
These fences do not work, who are we kidding—it is all about supply and demand, where there is a demand for workers in the US, there will always be an endless supply of immigrants to do the endless service jobs, whether temporary or full time.
When and Where there is a demand for drugs by Americans..fences will not stop the supply.
Immigrants do not necessarily want to live here, vote here, pay taxes here and become citizens; they just want a job or second job while continuing to live in Mexico etc.
To think that everyone who wants a job in the US wishes to give up living in their own country, the family nucleus-which is a proud heritage no matter the economic status, is a real misnomer.
Illegal aliens breaking in PING
That thing is just such a total waste of money. A completely conventional double hurricane fence, topped with barbed wire, an anti-vehicular ditch and a couple rolls of concertina wire out front, with a patrol road between the two fences and sensor towers every so often would be way cheaper and (properly manned and maintained) 99% effective.
If the only people who got across the border were young girls strong enough to climb the fence that way, I think we could live with that. Strong, healthy teen girls aren't the real problem with illegal immigration.
This is.
And this...
and this...
And this...
"A completely conventional double hurricane fence, topped with barbed wire, an anti-vehicular ditch and a couple rolls of concertina wire out front, with a patrol road between the two fences and sensor towers every so often would be way cheaper and (properly manned and maintained) 99% effective"
Yep. Tell a old, former, East German border guard that fences can't be made effective. I'll bet he will tell you otherwise.
Well, yes.
Not just that, but its sort of a test for the fittest of the illegal aliens. Anybody who can climb this fence like this is in pretty good shape. If we are going to keep them anyway, better make sure we get the best specimens.
Those had watch stations with machine gun wielding guards, with orders to shoot to kill.
Yep. Tell a old, former, East German border guard that fences cant be made effective. Ill bet he will tell you otherwise.
But the libs would cry it evil if we had snipers and heavy machine guns like the Eastern side of the Berlin Wall did. Yesterday, it seemed like the libs were communists. Today, they sound like something even funnier: the rejects of the Communists.
How about some sharks with frickin' lasers? Now that's what I'm talkin' 'bout! :)
The manning of the border is the real issue. The fence is just something to slow them down, but by itself is ineffective. Once again, America needs to learn from the Israelis.
"Those had watch stations with machine gun wielding guards, with orders to shoot to kill"
Umm... Ya, and I find nothing wrong with that. Do you? If you electrify the fence it can maim and injure. So could
concertina wire. Is being injured that way, morally, more acceptable than being shot? After the first few fence climbers are shot off of it, allot fewer will try. So armed guards in towers may mean FEWER injuries.
Not many people succeeded in getting through the East German border fence, because it was SHOWN to be DANGEROUS.
If you make the fence 10 feet higher - with no other deterrent - they will climb 10 feet higher and go over.
Better yet, a seawater moat, 25 feet wide, inhabited by sharks with frickin' lasers!
Very physically fit women.
to a degree, but I think the lure of a better life, the public dole and anchor babies provide the most motivation.
That idea would clearly pay for itself as a tourist attraction.
Best of all, we could have Fonzie jump over the moat every year when we celebrate its completion. It's a win-win situation for everybody, if you include the Fonz! Ayyyyy!
I'm amazed the fence doesn't have a gate
Education, yes all parents want that for their children and access to exceptional medical care--so for those reasons combined they seek our America. Perhaps this is where privately run [aka corporate] education would benefit over government owned. "Opening soon a new school by you." Worldwide projection.
And perhaps I am painting too broad a brush stroke as well..but I do think being in poverty with a neighbor who seems to have all the riches makes one want to reach for the same golden ring.
Past Mexico's President Fox granting duel citizenship was the cherry on top.
But you follow the money and the money is in America.
Designed by DemocRATS. There are all kinds of fencing and wall designs that would be extremely effective at keeping illegals out. The Israelis are pretty good at building them. Our engineers would be just as good at building them as the Israelis are, better even — if only the RATS would let them.
I'd bet good money that both of those girls are rock climbers.
When all the world puts down the US, it is noted by conservatives that we are the one country in the world where all the world wants to live, and no one wants to leave.
My state has now put back into effect that government authorities may ask residence status, and even though we do not have that many illegal immigrants in our state, it was to discourage others from coming here. This was also to discourage people coming here from PA or where ever looking for handouts. That was the first promise put into effect by the new governor of Maine. Of course the NAACP are here up in arms and other liberal groups charging prejudice especially when the governor attended the memorial services of a law office on MLK Day instead of attending breakfast lunch or dinner events with the NAACP.
As this was voiced in the negative in the media, the governor replied if they didn't like it they could kiss his butt..lol

Former Scott Walker rival Kathleen Falk to lead Obamacare startup
She calls for Wisconsin to release more cost details
Madison — Wisconsin consumers need to see the full details on what they'll be paying for the coverage being offered next year under Obamacare, said the new federal official charged with implementing the health care law in the Upper Midwest.
Kathleen Falk, the former Dane County executive who unsuccessfully sought to run as a Democrat against Gov. Scott Walker in last year's recall election, will now be working with the GOP governor to implement the federal law.
Falk's interview with the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel came two days after the Walker administration released an analysis showing sharply higher costs under the federal health law but did not provide the state-collected price data from insurers used in the analysis. Falk said both state and federal officials need to make these figures publicly available.
"Part of the point of the Affordable Care Act is that it relies on the private marketplace," Falk said. "So from a consumer standpoint it's very important to have that data available."
Falk started Monday in her $123,000 a year job as the director of Chicago office of the federal Department of Health and Human Services overseeing the states of Wisconsin, Illinois, Minnesota, Michigan, Indiana and Ohio. The first key deadline for her is less than a month away, as new federal health care marketplaces for consumers and for small businesses are supposed to start signing up consumers on Oct. 1.
Those online marketplaces, or exchanges, are supposed to allow consumers and business owners to browse different coverage options and insurers and choose the right plan for them. In many cases, consumers will qualify for subsidies from federal taxpayers.
Wisconsin Deputy Commissioner of Insurance Dan Schwartzer said that federal officials are just as well placed, if not better placed, to release the data that Falk wants to see released, since they also have it.
The situation is complicated by the fact that what state and federal officials possess is not price data — it's complicated formulas developed by actuaries to calculate prices based on factors such as a customer's age, place of residence, coverage options and so on.
The Milwaukee Journal Sentinel has made an open records request for the information from the state insurance commissioner's office.
Schwartzer said federal officials have more ability to crunch the data — as the state commissioner's office did for certain individual prices — and come up with more concrete prices for consumers in different situations.
"The formula's not going to tell the consumer anything," Schwartzer said. "They would be in a better position to throw some examples out."
Price estimates politicized
The release of information about the price of health plans that will be sold on the exchanges has been highly politicized. States controlled by Democrats often put a positive spin on the rates while states controlled by Republicans have done the opposite.
Citizen Action of Wisconsin, a group which supports the federal health-care law, has also filed its own open records request for the insurance information.
Both Schwartzer and Falk emphasized that consumers and business owners will still have time to weigh their options, since Oct. 1 is the start of signup for the exchanges, not the end. The actual insurance coverage won't start until Jan. 1.
"We have been saying all along just wait until October and you can see the rates for yourself," Schwartzer said.
Last year, Falk unsuccessfully ran in a Democratic primary for the chance to unseat Walker. In spite of that past history, both she and Walker spokeswoman Jocelyn Webster avoided criticism of the other.
Falk, for instance, said she believes the state will do its part in the huge task of educating the public on the new law.
"I think everyone is stepping up their effort," she said.
Webster said she believes the Walker administration and Falk can still collaborate in spite of their history.
"The working relationship with the federal government so far has been very positive... We'd expect that to continue," Webster said.
The cost of insurance sold in the so-called individual market was expected to increase next year because of an array of new rules.
Those regulations include requiring health insurers to cover people with pre-existing health problems, limits on out-of-pocket expenses, a cap on how much more older people can be charged compared with younger people, prohibitions against charging young women more than young men and new taxes on health insurers.
That makes comparisons with health plans now on the market difficult to impossible. In general, rates are expected to increase for people who are young and healthy, particularly young men, and decrease for people who are older and sicker.
The state estimates
The state insurance commisioner's office said last week that it compared health plans with a $2,000 deductible that will be sold on the exchange to similar plans now on the market. It provided estimates for seven regions in the state and for people who are ages 21, 40 and 63.
In the Milwaukee area, it estimates that premiums will increase:
■ 78.11% for someone who is 21.
■ 40.85% for someone who is 40.
■ 45.48% for someone who is 63.
The state insurance commisioner's office estimates statewide increases ranging from:
■ 37.59% in Kenosha to 124.85% in Madison for someone who is 21.
■ 15.15% in Kenosha to 73.43% in Madison for someone who is 40.
■ 9.72% in Kenosha to 70.04% in Madison for someone who is 63.
Whether health plans sold outside the exchanges will see similar increases isn't clear.

Associate Professor Lisa Gold leads research in the economics of maternal and child health at Deakin Health Economics, Deakin University. Lisa is a health economist with particular expertise in the economic evaluation of health and social interventions that aim to improve population health and reduce health inequalities. Over the last fifteen years, Lisa has designed and successfully conducted a large number of economic evaluations in public health related issues as well as systematic reviews of evidence and methodological development in economic evaluation in the UK and Australia. Lisa is currently providing the economic input to evaluations of a range of public health interventions in maternal and child health, including trials of enhanced midwifery care and peer support for pregnancy and breastfeeding outcomes, family oral health promotion, early language development support, and support for sleep problems and for low working memory in primary school-aged children. The economic research in these studies involves assessing both the investment required by the intervention (in terms of time and resources devoted by participants, health/education providers and communities) and the values held by children, parents, providers and the general public for the outcomes of the intervention.

Former Broncos and Ravens TE Shannon Sharpe
"One of my favorite moments in the NFL was when he spoke to us in the locker room after the Super Bowl victory. He said, 'This is the proudest day of my life; you guys make me proud.¿' And then he started to break down. That touched me. You could not only see the emotion from him and from all of us in that room, you could feel it. Knowing how long he had been in the NFL and how many great players he had been around, it was such a great feeling to give him something that he wanted for so long. We all wanted it for him!
"You see how close he was with his boys and how much he loved his wife, and he brought that atmosphere to the Ravens. He always had something positive to say, always had a joke to make you smile. I still picture him on his golf cart watching every practice, no matter what the weather was like. We were all in it together. The sport you see on TV today and what the NFL means to our society is in large part due to Mr. Modell.
"He was a great man, and I just wish that everyone got a chance to see him in the light that we did as players. It is a very sad day. I will miss my friend."--Shannon Sharpe

Not long after that, I started having trouble starting the car. Thinking that the battery I bought in 2005 needed replacing, I took the car to my normal mechanic. He replaced the battery on 7/22/09, and told me to bring the car back if it was still presenting problems.
After nearly being stranded a town over from home, I took the car back to my mechanic on 7/27/09. He checked the charging system again, and all was fine. Because the car was still hard to start, he checked the fuel system. It turned out that Kwik Kar had installed the wrong fuel filter in the car. My car was in my mechanics shop for 2 days, and the cost was $206.57.
I called Kwik Industries, and they said all Kwik Kar locations are entirely-owned franchises, so I'd have to take up the issue with them.
I went to Kwik Kar on 7/29/09, and spoke to Will. I showed him the receipts for all services performed on the car since 7/18/09. He said he called the owner, who said all they'd reimburse me for was the fuel filter, at their cost of $68.92. He said that the owner told him that I should have given them the chance to "make it right." I brought all invoices, and the incorrect fuel filter, for them to see.
Had I known for certain that it was the fuel filter, I'd have taken the car back to them. I truly suspected the battery, so I took it back where the battery had been installed. I am still $137.65 out of pocket due to this situation. Will said that he will "take this higher," because he saw that I've done quite a bit of business with them, and didn't want to damage the relationship. He said he was also going to talk to whoever set up their system to tell the technician which filter was right for my car. I told him that, as of now, the relationship between me and Kwik Kar was severely damaged.
All I want is my $206.57, an apology and some sort of correction to their system so this doesn't end up happening to someone else.

The Promise of a Big Payoff...
FDA approved Leo Pharma's Picato® (ingenol mebutgate) gel for the treatment of actinic keratoses (AK) lesions on the face, scalp, trunk, and extremities. The once-daily topical gel has been is available in two concentrations, 0.05%, and 0.015%, and is used for two days as a treatment for AK on the trunk and extremities (0.05% concentration), and for three days on the face and scalp (0.015% concentration).
Regulatory clearance in the U.S. was based on data from four Phase III studies involving 1,000 patients, which demonstrated that ingenol mebutate therapy was significantly more effective than placebo at clearing actinic keratoses. The data showed that 60% to 68% of patients with actinic keratosis on the face and scalp, and 44–55% of those with trunk/extremities lesions, experienced 75% or greater reduction of existing AKs after treatment with Picato, compared with 7–8% of placebo patients.
Ingenol mebutate is derived from the plant Euphorbia peplus, and is produced using an extraction, purification, and crystallization process that takes five months, Leo explains. For the manufacture of Picato gel, a selected cultivar of Euphorbia peplus plant is grown for LEO Pharma in Queensland, Australia.

People always ask what my favorite cookbooks are, so here
are some of them! It's definitely not a
complete list, but a quirky assortment of classics and personal favorites, all
written by cooks I admire. Some may be
out of print but happily you can find almost all of them for sale by online
booksellers. I hope you love some of
these, too!

Getting ready for the Fourth of July with Chocolate Ganache Cupcakes. That is... if they last until the weekend!
What's better than chocolate chip cookies and whipped cream?
How about Mocha Chocolate Icebox Cake?? People go crazy for this recipe and it
really couldn't be easier to make- you simply layer crisp chocolate chip
cookies and mocha whipped cream in a spring-form pan, refrigerate the whole
thing overnight, and simply slice the cake before serving. It's the perfect
Father's Day dessert- just be warned that once you make this for your dad, he
might ask for it every year!
I'm so excited about my new cookbook, Cooking for Jeffrey, which is coming out on October 25. It's filled with the recipes I make for Jeffrey at home, and lots of fun stories from our life together. The book is available for preorder wherever books are sold, and signed copies are available for preorder at barefootcontessa.com.
Whenever I invite friends for
dinner for, say, the Academy Awards, the first thing I find out is if there's
anything they don't eat. Instead of
seeing allergies or dietary preferences as an annoyance, I see them as a
challenge. My goal is that everyone shares
the same dinner and they think it's only a happy accident that everyone can eat
everything on the menu. My Decadent (Gluten-Free!) Chocolate Cake is perfect for someone who needs to avoid gluten,
but no one else at the party will have a clue that it's not made with regular
flour. My secret weapon is Thomas
Keller's "Cup 4 Cup" gluten-free flour.
I substitute it - literally cup for cup - for regular all-purpose flour and
trust me, no one can ever tell the difference!
Now the only thing you need to worry about is who will win the Oscar for
Best Picture!
Baby, it's cold outside! Nothing is more satisfying on a cold winter day than a big steaming mug of hot chocolate. Well, maybe a big mug of Mexican Hot Chocolate with a fresh Cinnamon Baked Doughnuts on the side! My hot chocolate is made with cinnamon and a pinch of cayenne pepper, and the doughnuts are baked (not fried!) and dipped in cinnamon and sugar - the way your mother used to make cinnamon toast for you. How good does that sound??! It's the perfect afternoon treat!
When I need a hostess gift during the holidays, homemade
chocolate treats are always a hit! This
French Chocolate Bark is so easy to make, but be sure make enough for everyone because
to seems to magically disappear! The
secret is tempering the chocolate in the microwave, and you can add any dried
fruits and nuts you love.
If you're looking for holiday gifts for the cooks on your
list, maybe they'd love a signed copy of my Barefoot Contessa cookbook Make it Ahead! Not only is it
filled with easy recipes like Roast Chicken with Bread & Arugula Salad,
Zucchini & Goat Cheese Tart, Twice Baked Sweet Potatoes, and Skillet
Brownies but it also has instructions for making every recipe in advance so
your friends can have fun at their own parties.
And that's a great gift for
the holidays!! To order, click here.
Everyone seems to have a question about Thanksgiving and I've decided to get serious about answering them! On Monday @ 2pm EST (11am PT), I'll be doing a Q&A on my Facebook page for one hour to answer as many of your challenging holiday questions as possible. Hope you can join me. It's going to be fun!!
It's that time of year when ghosts and goblins are roaming the streets looking for treats. I prefer a Halloween party at home and this
year, I'm making S'mores with Homemade Toasted Coconut Marshmallows for my
guests. First, I start with really easy
homemade marshmallows (trust me, you'll never go back to store bought!) and
then sandwich them in between layers of graham crackers and good bittersweet
Lindt chocolate. This is all treat and no
tricks! Stay safe this Halloween!
Filming a Thanksgiving Special with the amazing Bobby Flay!!! Watch the fun on Saturday November 14th on Food Network. Bobby's smoked turkey is so delicious!!
I'm so proud of Lidey Heuck, who works with us! She has an amazing column called "Lidey's Table" on the Hearst website, Delish. She's been entertaining her friends using tips and ideas she's learned from me and she writes about them every other week! How sweet is that?? You can click here to see her columns - the recipes are fabulous!!
Mocha Chocolate Icebox Cake is my go-to summer dessert! Not only has it been known to make grown men
weep but I don't even have to turn on the oven to make it! I simply layer mocha whipped cream - with
mascarpone, chocolate, and espresso – and crisp chocolate chip cookies (I use
Tate's). Refrigerate the whole thing overnight, and the next day, you'll have
the most decadent, delicious "cake" you've ever tasted. The only problem with this recipe is that
once you make it, your friends will insist you make it every time they come for
These Kale Cupcakes are a healthy twist on one of my
favorite cupcake recipes. They look
absolutely gorgeous and are the perfect treat for Spring! And the best part is,
they're so delicious kids won't even guess that there's a vegetable hidden
inside. Click here for the recipe!
Every once in a while, a cookbook comes along that simply
knocks me out. The new book, Huckleberry (Chronicle Books), is from
L.A.-based wife and husband team Zoe Nathan and Josh Loeb, who own Huckleberry
Bakery and Café in Santa Monica, as well as Milo & Olive, Sweet Rose
Creamery, and Rustic Canyon. Their book
is filled with wonderful tips about life and baking but what inspires me most
is that I want to make every single recipe in this book! The beautiful photographs draw you in and the
recipes are both rustic and elegant- plus, they're easy to make. Next for me, Baked Apples with Oat Crumble –
the ultimate comfort food with a modern twist!
Homemade treats always feel a little more special to give as
gifts around the holidays than store bought ones. I love to make my SALTED CARAMEL NUTS, pack
them in clear glassine bags, and bring them to parties as hostess gifts. And the good news is they are SO easy. All I do is make a simple caramel with sugar,
water and vanilla, and then stir in almonds, walnuts, cashews, and pecans- with
a little sprinkle of sea salt on top. This recipe makes a large batch so you
can give some away and still have some left for yourself! I hope you love it!
If you're looking for something amazing and fun to do over the holidays, run - don't walk! - to see the movie INTO THE WOODS, which opens Christmas Day. The original musical on Broadway is by Stephen Sondheim and James Lapine. It's a fairy tale updated for the screen by Rob Marshall and (again!) James Lapine. Happily they're both great friends so I was invited to the opening! It was so much fun and I can't wait to see the movie again in theaters! It's actually pretty scary for children under eight but everyone else will LOVE it--Meryl Streep is amazing as the Wicked Witch!!
Back to school! Throwback Thursday- twelve years before Jeffrey and I met. Does it look like I'm wondering where he is??
There were so many pictures of amazing flag cakes that
it was almost impossible for me to choose a winner! Instead of one prize, I'm giving two - to Kimberly Johnston and Melissa Reed - for the photographs of their families with
their beautiful flag cakes. And a
special thanks to each of their husbands for their service to our country. I hope you had a wonderful July 4th, and I hope you love your books!
One of the things I love most about Jeffrey is that he thinks I
still look like this!!! What do you love most about your Valentine? (Let me know on Facebook and Twitter!) Happy Valentine's Day everyone!
Set your DVRs!
Starting on Sunday morning, Jan 26th, there will be a new
series on Food Network called "Barefoot Contessa Celebrations." There are so many things for us to celebrate,
and the first one is a house-warming party for Lidey Heuck, our new social
media star. Lots of her friends were
coming to see her new East Hampton cottage, and I helped her plan a room-temperature
buffet so she could entertain everyone without breaking a sweat. And, there will be more shows to follow -
Sundays on Food Network at 11:30am/10:30c. I hope you enjoy Barefoot
Contessa Celebrations!
Yesterday, I was lucky to be one of Santa's elves on the Today Show! I collected fabulous toys for their annual Holiday Toy and Gift Drive from viewers who braved the cold to donate gifts like this wonderful teddy bear. Thanks to your generosity, the Today Show distributes more than 3 million toys to charities all over the country so less fortunate children can share the excitement on Christmas morning. Please try to find a charity in your area that helps families enjoy the pleasures of Christmas. In these tough economic times, sharing with people who are less fortunate can be the greatest pleasure of all.
Every year for Halloween, I love to fill small glassine bags with candy and tie them up with orange and black ribbons. They look so festive lined up as centerpieces for a casual dinner table setting, and everyone gets to take one home at the end of the night- it's like grown-up trick or treating! You can find glassine bags at CassandrasKitchen.com and tie them up with any ribbons you like…and more importantly, any candy you like. I choose a mix of classic candies (I secretly love candy corn!) and some new ones, like these addictive white chocolate M&M's. What's your Halloween favorite treat? Have fun!
Michael Symon and I have such a ball cooking together! The first time we cooked together was on his show The Chew, and we had so much fun I had to invite him back to the barn to learn the secret behind his Smoked Pork Ribs with smoked paprika, red onion, lemon, and honey. Not only are they the perfect thing to grill outside for dinner on a cool autumn night- they are the best ribs I've ever eaten! The show aired last Saturday but will be on again this coming Monday at 12 P.M. (EST), in case you missed it. Have fun!
What a great idea for a birthday party! My friend Kristen Fisher hired a pizza truck for her sons Charlie and Carter's birthdays. Three adorable guys (their business is called Rolling in Dough) showed up with a wood-burning pizza oven - on wheels - and made fabulous pizzas for all the kids, including a truly decadent one with mashed potatoes and bacon. Who knew you could put mashed potatoes and bacon on a pizza? I can't wait to try this at home and make individual pizzas with my friends!
I've been having so much fun on Pinterest lately. It took me awhile to catch on, but now I'm hooked. I love sharing photos of my favorite recipes, gardens and cooking tips--and I've come across so many great new ideas in the process! If you're on Pinterest, you can see my latest pins about cooking, gardening, entertaining, home, and travel. I hope you love them!
My favorite days at work are always the ones when my wonderful assistant Barbara Libath and I test recipes together in the barn. I work on a recipe first, until it's absolutely right, and then Barbara retests it. The music is cranked up, the doors are open, the birds are going crazy, and we're happily cooking away. Today we were making Blueberry Bran Muffins, which we both thought were absolutely delicious, so I decided to share them with you. I hope you love them as much as we did!
I'm often asked what my guilty pleasures are and I have to admit that really good bread and butter is definitely on the list. When I want to treat myself, I go online and order a huge crusty loaf of sourdough bread from Poilane, the best bakery in Paris. It's enormous – it weighs about 4 pounds! – it's made in their wood-burning ovens, and they FedEx it almost daily right to your door. When it arrives, I cut the loaf in quarters and freeze some for later. Poilane's bread is dense and flavorful and it's as good toasted with butter and jam as it is sliced for sandwiches or grilled for bruschetta. Of all the gifts I've ever given, a loaf of fresh bread shipped from Poilane was definitely everyone's favorite. The raisin and walnut breads are also amazing! It's like a trip to Paris without the jet lag!
I've always thought that the solution to many of life's problems is a good cookie with friends. So Ladies' Home Journal and I (that's me with entertainment editor Susan Pocharski) invited some of our favorite food bloggers to my barn in East Hampton for a cookie swap – we all made our favorite holiday cookies for each other! The story is in the current issue of LHJ and to whet your appetite, here's the recipe for Chocolate Peanut Butter Globs that I made from my new book FOOLPROOF. Happy holidays!
I've tried a lot of salted caramels but I always come back to the original ones. OMG I love Fran's chocolate-covered caramels with sea salt. I serve them after dinner with a small glass of Pedro Ximinez (PX) sherry and I'm in heaven. A box of 20 caramels wrapped in Fran's beautiful caramel-colored ribbon is also my favorite hostess gift. I guarantee you'll be invited back! To order click here: Fran's Chocolates.
My friend Joanne Newbold's adorable dog Baxter is a 3-year old Petit Basset Griffon Vendéen (PBGB for short.) He's a French scent hound (think Inspector Clouseau) and being French, he's a serious gourmet. For Baxter and all my friends' dogs, I thought it would be a fun to bake a special treat to keep their tails wagging. Dogs can't resist peanut butter and I've mixed it with whole wheat flour and wheat germ so it's also good for them. Here's the recipe for Whole Wheat & Peanut Butter Dog Biscuits. Hope your dog finds it a triple woof, too!

Hi all -
I'm helping a friend with her wordpress site http://www.shreddedsprout.com. For the past 2 years she has been uploading photos that are upwards of 3.8mb, and now the site has nearly slowed to a halt.
I grabbed the entire uploads folder via FTP to help shrink all the images down and replace them. The problem I've run into is that WordPress automatically creates multiple files for each images (example: dog.jpg, dog-150x150.jpg, dog-600x400.jpg, etc.)
My question is: Can I just replace the large files, or do i need to optimize each of the autogenerated extra files as well?
Thanks for the help everyone!

Hmm... my favorite is probably this: She's Oblivious But there are others I enjoyed. My Wife Met My Girlfriend gets special props for being a terrible song, paired with a flawed anime, poorly put together and yet... it's hilariously funny. That last one has left me hungering for an AMV combining Zero no Tsukaima with Joan Jett's "I Hate Myself For Loving You". It's the perfect AMV combination of extreme Tsundere lyrics with the most extreme Takahashi Couple of modern anime.

Easy installation on my sons 90tt
the sunstar sprockets are very durable and preform flawlessly. Very tough product unlike aluminum which breaks under pressure!
we replace sprockets frequently during the harescramble season. These provide excellent wear and reliability at reasonable cost.
Great sprocket for a great price
Sunstar, great sprockets.
Appears to be a good quality item...
The Sunstar sprocket is OEM from Honda!! there is a reason, great quality, and extremely durable.
With New chain and rear sprocket you are sure to get a long life from the SunStar sprocket.
Highly recommend the Sunstar Chain and sprocket kit, its all you will need!!
Havent yet used this particular one, but I use Sunstar front and rear sprockets on all of my bikes. Always have good quality and are very durable. Looking forward to years of use.
Stayed with the stock number on this one .... Great fit
Low price and made very well. I run sunstar steel sprockets on all my trx450r's and er's
no other front sprocket holds up to my xr626 big bore thumper like Sunstar
Needed to gear down my 450 exc. This did just what I needed. Good quality metal. Splines were machined perfectly.
I have used Sunstar Sprockets on multiple bikes and they are great sprockets. Great durability at a great price!
Good stuff
Got this on my klx110 that is anything but stock. Last a very long time and fits perfect.
Sprocket was great value
These sprockets are solid and long lasting but heavy.

Skill Level Intermediate
In the previous movie, we created a good selection of the sky. Yet if we go into refine edge, as I'm going to do here. We won't actually be able to see the results very well. Let me show you what I mean. So here, when I click on refine edge, we can view this selection a few different ways, by going to our view mode pull down menu. What I want to do is view this on layers. Now when I view this on layers, what I see is that it's actually replacing the opposite of what I want it to replace. Rather than replacing the sky, it's keeping the sky, and replacing everything else.
So, what we need to do, is to cancel out of refine edge and after we've built our selection, we actually need to invert that. There's a really easy way to do that. You go up to the select pull down menu, and in the select pull down menu, we click on the menu item for inverse. So again that's select and then inverse. Now, that we have everything else selected, what we can then do is go back to refine edge. Now here in refine edge what we see is our surfer, the beach, the ocean and what we don't see is the background.
And what's really fun about this view is we can then change our view pull down menu to on layers and we'll instantly see to one of our underlying layers where we have some clouds. Now, the cloud layer isn't in the right position, yet this still can help us to evaluate some of our edge detail. So, here, let's go ahead and click that view option of on layers. Then, next, I'm going to zoom in, press command plus on a Mac, or control plus on Windows, and let's take a look at some of our edge detail. You know what I'm seeing here is the surfboard actually looks really good, it's a little bit choppy, the ocean edge looks okay, over here it looks a little bit like it needs to be straightened out a touch.
So let's turn on smart radius. Smart radius almost always helps. With this photograph I think we'll only need a really small amount just for the surfboard. Again, we'll need to touch up the ocean a little bit later. I'm going to smooth this out just a little bit, and then add some contrast to add a little more intensity to the edge. If we use the shift edge slider what we can do is we can bring our edge in or extend it out. And what I think might be nice to do here is just to add a little bit of a shift edge effect, maybe a minus two.
You want to click on your preview checkbox to look at the before and after. What I'm seeing, at least on my screen, is that the surf board looks a little bit better. Let me zoom in just a bit more here. But the ocean actually looks a little bit worse. So again, I'm looking at my before and after. I like the surfboard edge for the most part. I like the way that the hair looks. This gap area, it looks pretty good. So, in this case our Refine Edge isn't doing a ton, but it is helping us out in some small ways. Once we have dialed in the Refine Edge settings here, made some subtle adjustments, increased the radius, added a value of one for the smoothing, increased our contrast to add some density or intensity to the edge, and then we shift the edge a little bit in by having a minus two value.
Alright, well next, let's choose to output this to a layer mask. If we click on the output two pull down menu, we can choose layer mask, it's the top option there. Then when we click okay, what we'll see is it will build a layer mask based on the selection that we had, so that we can now see our subject here and we're seeing underneath to these other layers. If we click in one of these layers, we could then use the Move tool, the top tool in the Tools Panel. And we can move this around. So, we can change the position of the clouds, which we have there, in the background.
All right. Well, we'll get into some of the details of working with our new backgrounds and of cleaning up these edges in the next few movies. For now, I think this is a pretty good place to pause. So, go ahead and leave this file open. As we'll continue to work on it in the next few movies.
