Opposition to the overthrow of the Kingdom of Hawaii
Opposition to the overthrow of the Kingdom of Hawaii took several forms. Following the overthrow of the monarchy on January 17, 1893, Hawaii's provisional government—under the leadership of Sanford B. Dole—attempted to annex the land to the United States under Republican Benjamin Harrison's administration. But the treaty of annexation came up for approval under the administration of Grover Cleveland, a Democrat, anti-expansionist, and friend of the deposed Queen Liliuokalani of Hawaii. Cleveland retracted the treaty on March 4, 1893, and launched an investigation headed by James Henderson Blount; its report is known as the Blount Report.
The overthrow of the Hawaiian Kingdom was a result of progressive governmental control by foreigners who were coming in increasing numbers to the island of Hawaii. Many of these foreigners bought up Hawaiian land and invested in the lucrative Hawaiian sugar industry. In 1887, these men forced the then reigning king, Kalākaua, to sign the so-called Bayonet Constitution, which stripped him of much of his power, in turn creating a constitutional monarchy. In 1890, the United States signed the McKinley Tariff into law; the new law sharply raised tariffs, ending the Hawaiian sugar industry's dominance in the North American market and pushing Hawaii into turmoil.[1][2]
Following the sugar crash, in 1893 the reigning Queen Lili'uokalani proposed a new constitution to replace the 1887 one. If signed, the new constitution would revoke many of the foreigners' powers, and put the queen back in control of the Kingdom. The proposal was backed by the majority of the native population; however, it was naturally opposed by the Americans and foreigners on the island, who hoping for American intervention, began planning a coup. The situation soon escalated as both royalists and secessionists armed themselves. Fearing for American safety, the United States called on the USS Boston to land a small force of Marines to protect American interests. Although the Americans were sworn to neutrality and never fired a shot, they did intimidate the royalist defenders, and Queen Lili'uokalani, fearing bloodshed, conceded surrender.[2][3][4]
Blount Report[edit]
In an attempt to undo the work of the Harrison administration, Cleveland removed John L. Stevens as Minister to Hawaii, as well as Gilbert C. Wiltse as captain of the USS Boston. He then retracted the treaty of annexation from the U.S. Senate, citing the opposition of Hawaiian citizens to annexation. The provisional government then became the Republic of Hawaii.[5]
After withdrawing the annexation treaty, Cleveland sent an emissary (Blount) to investigate the circumstances surrounding the revolution and the situation in Hawaii. The report stated that the provisional government was not established with the consent or approval of the Hawaiian people. It also claimed that Liliuokalani only surrendered after being convinced that the provisional government was supported by the United States and fearing a bloody military conflict. According to Blount, she was told by the revolutionaries that the U.S. president would consider her case after surrendering. After reviewing the report, Cleveland decided not to send back the treaty he had withdrawn. Blount's findings were disputed by the provisional government.[6]
Black Week[edit]
On December 14, 1893, Albert Willis arrived in Honolulu aboard the USRC Corwin unannounced, bringing an anticipation of an American invasion to restore the monarchy, which became known as the Black Week. Willis was the successor to James Blount as United States Minister to Hawaii. With the hysteria of a military assault, he staged a mock invasion with the USS Adams and USS Philadelphia, directing their guns toward the capital. He also ordered rear admiral John Irwin to organize a landing operation using troops on the two American ships, which was joined by the Japanese Naniwa and the British HMS Champion.[7][8] After the arrival of the Corwin, the provisional government and citizens of Hawaii were ready to rush to arms if necessary, but it was widely believed that Willis' threat of force was a bluff.[9][10]
On December 16, 1893, the British Minister to Hawaii was given permission to land marines from HMS Champion for the protection of British interests; the ship's captain predicted that Liliuokalani would be restored by the U.S. military.[9][10] In a November 1893 meeting with Willis, Liliuokalani indicated that she wanted the revolutionaries punished and their property confiscated, despite Willis' desire for her to grant amnesty to her enemies.[11]
On December 19, 1893, while meeting with the leaders of the provisional government, Willis presented a letter written by Liliuokalani, in which she agreed to grant amnesty to the revolutionaries if she was restored as queen. During the conference, Willis told the provisional government to surrender to Liliuokalani and allow Hawaii to return to its previous condition, but Dole refused to comply with his demands, claiming that he was not subject to the authority of the United States.[6][10][12]
A few weeks later, on January 10, 1894, U.S. Secretary of State Walter Q. Gresham announced that the settlement of the situation in Hawaii would be left up to Congress, citing Willis' unsatisfactory progress. Cleveland said that Willis had carried out the letter of his directions, rather than their spirit.[9]
On January 11, 1894, Willis confirmed that the invasion had been a hoax.[7]
Domestic responses[edit]
Domestic response to Willis' and Cleveland's efforts was largely negative. The independent New York Herald wrote: "If Minister Willis has not already been ordered to quit meddling in Hawaiian affairs and mind his own business, no time should be lost in giving him emphatic instructions to that effect."[citation needed] The Democratic New York World wrote: "Is it not high time to stop the business of interference with the domestic affairs of foreign nations? Hawaii is 2000 miles from our nearest coast. Let it alone."[citation needed] The Democratic New York Sun said: "Mr. Cleveland lacks ... the first essential qualification of a referee or arbitrator."[citation needed] The Republican New York Tribune called Willis' trip a "forlorn and humiliating failure to carry out Mr. Cleveland's outrageous project".[citation needed] The Republican New York Recorder wrote: "The idea of sending out a minister accredited to the President of a new republic, having him present his credentials to that President and address him as 'Great and Good Friend', and then deliberately set to work to organize a conspiracy to overthrow his Government and re-establish the authority of the deposed Queen, is repugnant to every man who holds American honor and justice in any sort of respect."[citation needed] The Democratic New York Times was one of the few New York newspapers that defended Cleveland's decisions: "Mr. Willis discharged his duty as he understood it."[9]
Response from the Queen[edit]
Liliuokalani's statement yielding authority, on January 17, 1893, protested the overthrow:[13]
I Liliuokalani, by the Grace of God and under the Constitution of the Hawaiian Kingdom, Queen, do hereby solemnly protest against any and all acts done against myself and the Constitutional Government of the Hawaiian Kingdom by certain persons claiming to have established a Provisional Government of and for this Kingdom.
That I yield to the superior force of the United States of America whose Minister Plenipotentiary, His Excellency John L. Stevens, has caused United States troops to be landed at Honolulu and declared that he would support the Provisional Government.
Now to avoid any collision of armed forces, and perhaps the loss of life, I do this under protest and impelled by said force yield my authority until such time as the Government of the United States shall, upon facts being presented to it, undo the action of its representatives and reinstate me in the authority which I claim as the Constitutional Sovereign of the Hawaiian Islands.
Dole received her letter, but neither read it nor challenged her claim of surrendering to the "superior force of the United States of America."[13] He then sent representatives to Washington, D.C. to negotiate a treaty of annexation.[5]
Letter of protest against annexation[edit]
December 19, 1898 letter of protest from Queen Liliokalani of Hawaii to the House of Representatives:
The House of Representatives of the United States:
I, Liliuokalani of Hawaii, named heir apparent on the 10th day of April, 1877, and proclaimed Queen of the Hawaiian Islands on the 29th day of January, 1891, do hereby earnestly and respectfully protest against the assertion of ownership by the United States of America of the so-called Hawaiian Crown Islands amounting to about one million acres and which are my property, and I especially protest against such assertion of ownership as a taking of property without due process of law and without just or other compensation.
Therefore, supplementing my protest of June 17, 1897, I call upon the President and the National Legislature and the People of the United States to do justice in this matter and to restore to me this property, the enjoyment of which is being withheld from me by your Government under what must be a misapprehension of my right and title.
Done at Washington, District of Columbia, United States of America, this nineteenth day of December, in the year one thousand eight hundred and ninety-eight.
Efforts by native Hawaiians[edit]
Natives of the Hawaiian Islands, who strongly opposed annexation, also organized protests in response to annexation attempts. They rallied behind two groups: Hui Aloha ʻĀina (Hawaiian Patriotic League) and Hui Kālaiʻāina (Hawaiian Political Association). On January 5, 1895, native islanders staged an armed revolution, but the attempt was quelled by Republic of Hawaii supporters. Those leading the attempt were jailed, along with Liliuokalani, who was accused of not stopping the revolt.[14][15]
After William McKinley, who favored annexation, became President of the United States in 1897, a new treaty of annexation was signed and sent to Congress for approval. In response, the Hawaiian Patriotic League and its female counterpart petitioned Congress, opposing the annexation treaty. In September and October of that year, Hui Aloha ʻĀina collected 556 pages for a total of 21,269 signatures of native Hawaiians — or over half of native residents — opposing annexation. Hui Kālaiʻāina collected around 17,000 signatures for restoring the monarchy, but their version has been lost to history. After presenting the petition to the U.S. Senate and then lobbying senators, they were able to force the treaty's failure in 1897.[14][15]
However, in 1898, Congress passed the Newlands Resolution due to the Spanish–American War; the resolution resulted in Hawaii's annexation for use as a Pacific military base.[14]

Wow Lubie this was 5 stars all the way! I am always looking for recipes using round steak and this one caught my eye as it was also quick & easy. We were in for a real treat last night. The only think I changed was to aliminate the salt and I used a little beef base instead it gave it rich beefy flavor. The meat came out exceptionally tender. I will be making this one often. Thanks for a great supper!
Wonderfully delicious! The only change I made was to substitute some beef broth for the sherry. I used a boneless bottom round steak and it was extremely tender after simmering for an hour. I loved the subtle hint of the cayenne pepper as it added just a little bit of kick to the dish. I served this with some mashed potatoes, marinated vegetables and biscuits for an easy meal. Thanks a bunch for sharing this recipe!
This recipe was wonderful, but I will admit that I did take one liberty with it. Instead of round steak, I had a small chuck roast that I wanted to put into the crockpot. So I used this recipe. I just seared the roast, placed it in the crockpot, followed the rest of the directions to a T....poured it over the roast and let it cook for about 5 hours. Sliced the roast, and served layered over egg noodles with the gravy that spooned over the top. It was fantastic. DD kidnapped the leftovers!!!!

Did the CEO, Alan Auerbach, purchase 150,000 shares at $44 on 10/25/2013? That's $6MM. Is this option related or a purchase? Even if it is options, he isn't selling. Seems like a very big positive indicator if I am understanding it correctly. Anyone know?
He was exercising an option. His cost was 0. Nevertheless, it should be noted that no Puma insider has sold shares during the last 6 months, according to Yahoo! and Adage has added 200,000 shares. No seems in a hurry to leave this ship. Also note that today's runup is on relatively heavy volume.
Would he not have had to sell some to pay the taxes?

TOW The Bullies is great and extremely underrated! its one of the funniest and most original in the whole series. TOW The Lottery also very good. a great episode in an "ok" season (9). TOW No One's Ready is a classic better than the very popualr football epidode, i compare the 2 because they both consist i only 2 sets at least in the whole episode

I'm modifying the default "post" type and I found a problem (and a workaround). I expected this to work:
Problem is, inside the code (wp-includes/post.php) in some places it expects $object->labels to be an object and in other places it expects $object->labels to be an array.
This workaround did it for me:
$object = get_post_type_object('post');
$object->labels = (array) $object->labels;
(Obviously, the above is a no-op. I modified $object->labels in my own code.)
Please let me know if I'm going about this the wrong way. I'll leave it to someone more familiar with the code to decide whether or not this is a bug. (Unfortunately, it seems that there are already public interfaces that rely on this inconsistency.)

I've been thinking a lot about the whole 'native iPhone app' versus 'optimised web app' thing, so I decided to investigate jQTouch.
It's awesome, and after a day of tinkering I've managed to get something that looks and vaguely functions like a native app. Definitely food for thought.

You said it... Historic, i.e in the past! Anyway, you can't really blame the Kopites for the subdued atmosphere, I mean given that in August they had all but won the Premier League and the rest were making up the numbers, it must be quite hard to come to terms with missing the boat again and, on top of that, not even be certain of a European Place, 'cos on recent form a top-half finish might be a good result for them!

Just like aamberjeremiiahaah said,The movie kinda goes from end to beginning back to the end but this was a good watch not knowing where it was leading to then the babysitter pulls some really fkt up sht to help the disabled guy out but in the end im not sure what really was the outcome but that may be part of the way the film was designed,this movie has an appeal that keeps you watching without the thought of shutting it down,4/5
|Posted by aamberjeremiiaah 4 years ago
Wow this was sort of a strange watch. It wasnt that bad though a babysitter suspects abuse on a boy she babysits for and does some really strange things to get get help for him. The movie kind of goes from end to beginning. Good Watch! 4/5

Movie wasnt bad, interesting reading the opinions after I watched it, yeah, the ending makes you think, but its not the ending that made the film. Easy to watch, though at times it did drag for me but well worth the watch.......
|Posted by jg006 3 years, 11 months ago
The movie makes you think, I understand a parents love for their child and a caretaker - well caring about the person their taking care of, the two things that make this less enjoyable are the way the director shot it and solid reasoning to make a person go to that point, it was worth watching.
|Posted by Vamptasia 4 years ago
Good Movie once it takes off. Starts from the end and works backwards to finish at the end which was the beginning. Confused? Watch and judge for yourself. The Mum played a much better part in Orphan as a (would you believe?)Psychiatrist. This is a film you need to watch on your own with total concentration. 6/10

Captivating performances and no dialogue wasted. Familiar beginning story of symbiotic mother/son relationship on steroids with a novel twist. Movies like this are why I like character-driven indie films. 4/5 because I did not think the beginning sequence added anything to the plot.

Well, the ending was kind of confusing. Also, what Paige did to rectify the situation was kind of ridiculous. It would have just been better to take a camera with her and take pictures of all the suspected abuse. A professional would have been able to tell if the kid did it to himself of if the bruises were inflicted by someone else. The mother did do a very good acting job. I had all sorts of theories. I know the kids father was abusive. He left the mom so I was wondering if she took it out on the kid and became abusive herself. It appears every gut she tried to hook up with ran for the hills because of her son. I think it is obvious it was her, but you make your own conclusions. It was a good one time watch. I just wish the ending would have been more clear.

Wow! I wasn't expecting this film to be this good. It was actually quite pleasant. The direction changed somewhere in the middle and I was like "ohh." It is an open ended movie left to interpretation so before you watch it, keep that in mind... Don't complain in the end that you did not get a conclusion! I think it was better left unsaid and to be honest it is a little obvious as to what really happened. Superior acting by the mom, she was so annoying, I wanted to hit her in the head with a bat. Thumbs up!
|Posted by BeauTyStarZ 4 years ago
Not sure what to do with or what to think about it! Like most reviews, I still don't know what the hell really happened which is never good for any film. The mother had a top notch performance as I noticed this right from the beginning and if you look her up, you will find that Margo Martindale has more than 83 titles under her belt - it means she has superior acting skills. Most have never heard of her likely because she is not a size 2. But I digress, the film was confusing in the end because it left the viewer without answers. Anyway, we all know who the lunatic ended up being in this movie. Good for a one time watch. 2/5 because there was one great actress.

Hmm... don't really know what to say about this one. I liked the idea, but not enough storyline to understand it completely.Warnng!!! Spoiler Alert!!! Was he gettiing abused? Why did she do that to herself in the end? What was the point to this nonsense of a movie. Acting was good. Direction was decent. But the storyline sucked. 7/10.

A clever title - unfortunately that is all I have to say positive about this thriller. Although the mother's acting was good (the reason why I stuck with this movie to the end), the other two in the triangle were sub-par. The final blow for me was the closing music track - why on earth would they pick Sarabande, the recurring theme song from Barry Lyndon? If it was to remind us of the duel in the Kubrick film, it was a poor decision in my opinion. Oh well, can't win 'em all. 2.5/5 Thank you uplinkers, as always.

Quack Diet Red Flags
Warning: Quick weight loss! No effort required!
By Jeanie Lerche Davis
Reviewed By Brunilda Nazario, MD
Lose that weight -- you know you should. But the sheer numbers of weight loss programs sometimes confuse the issue.
The cabbage diet! The rice diet! The blood type diet! Atkins! South Beach! No carb! Low carb! There's even a Jesus diet (sans loaves and fishes).
"People who want to lose weight are a very vulnerable group because they're very frustrated," Kathleen Zelman, MPH, RD/LD, director of nutrition for the WebMD Weight Loss Clinic, tells WebMD. "Weight loss is hard, and everybody is looking for a silver bullet."
How can you discern which weight loss claims are true or false? Here's some advice from Zelman and from the Federal Trade Commission:
Does the diet promote rapid weight loss?
That's a clear signal it's unrealistic, says Zelman. When you start a diet, water weight is the first to go, she explains. If you lose much more than two pounds a week, you're drawing from both fat and muscles. That's not good, because muscle is one big factor that controls your metabolism. If you lose muscle mass, your metabolism will slow down. That's how the yo-yo cycle begins -- and that's one reason why some diets don't work, she explains.
"That's why we advocate losing weight slowly and gradually, so you're losing one to two pounds per week," Zelman says. "You're eating more food than diets allow, but you're tapping into stored fat more efficiently."

Wales and Republic of Ireland played out a low-key goalless draw in the international friendly at the Cardiff City Stadium.
The first shot on target did not arrive until the 54th minute, when Craig Bellamy's free-kick was easily dealt with by Ireland goalkeeper Kieren Westwood.
In a second half scarred by multiple substitutions, Ireland looked the more fluent of the two sides and could have won the game in the 79th minute.
Jon Walters' run from the left found Paddy Madden, and the Yeovil Town player was only denied a debut goal by a fine save low to his right by Wales goalkeeper Boaz Myhill.
Wales skipper Ashley Williams then reacted quickly to block James McClean's follow-up shot.
Ireland manager Giovanni Trapattoni will be heartened by the clean sheet and the resolute performance of his defenders ahead of the two crucial World Cup Group C qualifiers in September.
Ireland face Sweden in Dublin on 6 September, then Austria away four days later. Ireland, Austria and Sweden are all on 11 points from six games, five points behind leaders Germany.
Wales are fourth in Group A, 10 points behind second-placed Croatia. They face Macedonia on 6 September followed by a home tie with Serbia.
Wales had an early half-chance in the 14th minute, after Westwood failed to come and gather a Bellamy corner from the left, but John O'Shea was able to head clear under pressure from Ashley Williams.
Shane Long had good opportunity in the 24th minute when he ran onto a low ball from James McCarthy from the right, but the West Bromwich Albion striker, perhaps distracted by Wes Hoolahan's dummy, got his feet all wrong and scooped his shot well over the bar.
Ireland had by far the better of the possession in the first half and looked comfortable on the ball, but lacked the quality to unlock the opposition's defence.
Robbie Brady almost managed it in the 40th minute when he dragged the ball across Sam Ricketts and curled an effort from the edge of the area, only to see his shot end up wide of Myhill's goal.
Wales could have taken an unlikely half-time lead in the final minute of the first half, when the Ireland defence dozed and failed to pick up a low, short corner from Bellamy, but Ben Davies dragged his shot across Westwood's goal.
Bellamy's free-kick in the 54th minute was the first shot on target, although Westwood always looked comfortable as he dealt with the floated set-piece from 30 yards.
The best chance of the game came in the 69th minute, but Myhill produced a superb block to deny Long from close range, after the Ireland striker had run past Ricketts to get on the end of Madden's header.
Madden looked sharp on his debut from the moment he came on to replace Hoolahan in the 68th minute, and having been denied by Myhill when set up by Walters, he then shot over in the 88th minute after the Wales goalkeeper had dropped a cross at his feet.
Ashley Williams (Wales): The Welsh skipper got the better of his duel with Ireland striker Shane Long, and produced a superb block at full stretch to deny James McClean in the second half. It helped Wales to their first clean sheet in 12 matches, the last having come in the Euro 2012 1-0 qualifier win over Bulgaria in October 2011.
WALES: Myhill 7, Gunter 6, Ashley Williams 8, Ricketts 6, Ben Davies 7, Ledley 6, Allen 6, Bellamy 7, Collison 6, Jonathan Williams 7, Robson-Kanu 6. Subs: Craig Davies 6, Taylor 7, King 6, Vokes 6, Crofts 6.
REPUBLIC OF IRELAND: Westwood 6, Wilson 7, O'Shea 7, Clark 7, Coleman 7, Walters 6, McCarthy 6, Whelan 6, Brady 7, Hoolahan 6, Long 7. Subs: O'Dea 6, Green 6, Andy Keogh 6, McClean 7, Sammon 6, Madden 7.

Wall of water
A wall of water makes its way to shore as residents take a dip in the big surf in Ocean City, Maryland, as Hurricane Sandy intensifies. About 50 million people from the Mid-Atlantic to Canada were in the path of the nearly 1,000-mile-wide storm, which forecasters said could be the largest to hit the mainland in U.S. history.

Welcome to WebmasterWorld Guest from 184.108.40.206
Forum Moderators: ocean10000
That goes in the .htaccess on a linux machine. What to do with a windows server?
Edit - I would have made the thread title and description a little better, but it's too late to edit that. Help appreciated.
I setup PHP on windows server a few times (dont really like running it on Windows,but had to) and its not hard if you follow the instructions in the manual. If I remember correctly, there is even an installation .exe to do a lot of it for you but I could be wrong.
With linux, using htaccess in that manner is a standard thing an average shared-hosting webmaster can do. I'm wondering if there is something similar for a webmaster who uses a windows host.
I have a product that I'd like to make available for windows server users (in addition to linux users). If it requires that they contact their sysadmin, then I'd probably not offer it so I wouldn't have to put up with the support issues.
So, assuming php is already installed, is there some sort of equivalent? Assume I'm an inexperienced wemaster. (true)
I think I was a little surprised that this question hasn't been asked to death by people who need to do the same thing with their windows host for whatever reason. (and more easily answered)
Does it really require an in-depth knowledge of windows php installation? Or are there ways that a typical webmaster can make that happen in a shared windows hosting environment?

I just noticed that CDN feature of W3 Total cache is not working as expected. I recall that it used to replace wp-content images with ones from CDN but now, it is not doing this.
For example, if you go to my homepage: http://bloggingwithsuccess.net/ and see source of first thumbnail, it is http://bloggingwithsuccess.net/wp-content/uploads/2010/12/Searching-Thumb.jpg while with CDN Activated, it should be http://cdn.bloggingwithsuccess.net/wp-content/uploads/2010/12/Searching-Thumb.jpg
This file is present at CDN, but plugin isn't using it. So basically, files are being uploaded and I am being charged for that but they aren't served, so no performance gains for me!

I love this plugin! Two quick questions:
1. I don't seem to get the seperation bar between the footnotes and the main body of the post. Is there a place I need to configure this? Is it perhaps a function of my style ("Standard")?
2. Is there any way to embed a footnote inside another footnote? I use footnotes more for parenthetical comments than citations, and this is something I'm prone to doing when I can.
Thanks for this great addon!

Anxiety in a Flourishing Market; Competition Worries Owners of Small Kosher Shops
By LESLIE EATON
Published: March 29, 1999
A week before Passover, there is nowhere to park outside the Glatt Mart in Midwood, Brooklyn, not in front on Avenue M, not out back in the tiny lot, not for blocks around.
Inside, the seven narrow aisles of the kosher food market are jammed, a crowd jostles in front of the butcher's window, and despite the three cashiers' best efforts, there is cart-lock in the checkout area. Fresh kosher meat is the store's specialty, and carts are piled with mountains of it: brisket, rib roast, turkey chops, veal breast, ground round.
This is a dying business? Mendy Bauman, the owner, says yes.
Short and roundish, Mr. Bauman stands amid the scrum of customers, alternately wise-cracking and hollering, finding 10 pounds of livers for one woman, an extra chicken neck for a man's seder, veal spareribs for a harried mother.
In between, when he is not on the phone trying to solve a two-week shortage of chicken gizzards, Mr. Bauman explains why a boom in demand for kosher foods has not been a blessing for him.
The short answer is competition. Even 10 years ago, kosher food was a niche -- and stores like Glatt Mart filled it. Today, kosher products have become ubiquitous -- and big business in New York City. Kosher food is available at big supermarkets like Shop-Rite, fancy food emporiums like Fairway in Manhattan, even over the Internet.
A kosher version exists for almost every item sought by epicures (balsamic vinegar, sushi, white peach sorbet) and couch potatoes (Oreo cookies, Heinz ketchup, Wise Bar-B-Q potato chips). So much kosher food is produced in New York that the State Department of Agriculture and Markets has set up a program to help sell these products overseas.
And there are more people than ever who want to eat all that kosher food -- more than half of which is consumed in and around New York City, according to Integrated Marketing Communications, which collects data on the kosher industry.
In addition to the two million Jews who routinely buy kosher products, there are millions of other buyers who are Muslim, or vegetarian, or just think kosher food is healthier because it is prepared under the eyes of a rabbi.
This time of year, even Jews who do not follow all the kosher rules tend to buy kosher food for their Passover seders, and those who do keep kosher buy special ''kosher for Passover'' products that are prepared with especially strict rabbinical supervision (and without any chametz, or grain that can ferment).
And many people whose idea of red meat, the rest of the year, is rare tuna (accompanied perhaps by shiitake mushrooms and a dab of garlic mashed potatoes), return to the brisket (with gefilte fish and matzoh ball soup) of their grandmothers.
''Forty percent of all kosher food sales revolve around Passover,'' said Avrom Pollak, president of Star-K Kosher Certification in Baltimore, one of the largest of the agencies that inspect kosher food (along with a Brooklyn agency, it certifies Glatt Mart).
That the kosher business has become so seasonal is bad news for Mr. Bauman, who keeps his store open all year. He says his customers' attitude, too often, is, ''I want to have you here when I need you, but when I don't, don't be here -- and by the way, don't charge me so much.''
He said the competition is greater than when he opened Glatt Mart in 1977. Half a dozen kosher markets now dot the streets nearby. And in Manhattan, people who used to place big orders in Brooklyn can now shop at places close to home, like the Kosher Marketplace that opened in August on the Upper West Side.
And there are more kosher restaurants: fancy ones like Provi Provi in Manhattan, with its grilled portobello mushrooms, and less fancy ones like the new glatt kosher Nathan's on Kings Highway in Brooklyn (glatt refers to meat that is prepared under the strictest kosher rules). There are kosher food stands at Yankee and Shea Stadiums, and even a couple of Dunkin' Donuts.
But while other kosher establishments flourish, ''Kosher butchers are a dying breed,'' said Menachem Lubinsky, president of Integrated Marketing. He estimates that there are only 150 left in New York, down from several thousand in the 1950's.
One might expect that all meat stores, kosher or not, have been superseded by supermarkets -- but that is not true. In the five boroughs, the number of places that sell and slaughter live poultry has doubled in the last five years, to 80, according to the State Agriculture Department.
Still, meat was probably the last bastion of traditional kosher retailing, in part because the rules about it are strict and complex. The animals must be flawless, and they must be killed according to ritual and hung so the blood drains out.
While the killing of the fatted calves (and lambs and cows) is done at a kosher slaughterhouse, butchers still must still remove arteries and sinews and kosher the meat -- soak it in water, salt it, and then rinse it three times. Traditionally, only the front half of the animal is used (so there is no such thing as kosher sirloin steak).

This is the fourth edition of a very popular book dealing with the classical allergic diseases. The third edition was totally sold out. The addition of William Busse as a senior editor enhances the sections on lower airway disease. This edition also sees several new authors of note and an updating and modernization of chapter headings and contents.
The last two decades have witnessed the proliferation of works dealing with allergic and immunologic diseases. The first of these major works was Samter's Immunological Diseases, a book characterized by multiple prominent authors. Unlike other current and past works, Allergy: Principles and Practice stays within the bounds of classical allergy problems and avoids diseases primarily seen by rheumatologists, hematologists, and other subspecialists. With allergists experiencing something of a crisis regarding the bounds of their subspecialty, it is refreshing to see a redirection by the editors to areas that have been the domain

A new study by Grand Valley State University may remind you of an old study by Grand Valley State University. The new one is on the impacts of offshore wind. The conclusion: Not as bad as people might think. The old study: Same bottom line. But will it change minds? Probably not, and that's a (cough) shame.
The cough is from the coal that powers much of Michigan, and the Midwest. The deal with coal is that it's been in use a long time, and some people just don't see the harm it does.
A big wind turbine in a lake? People can see that. The noise from a turbine? People can hear that. But how does either compare to the impact of a coal plant that billows out emissions around the clock? What about those coal-plant stacks along the waterfront? Ah, people don't even notice them anymore. It's like living by a highway. After a while, you don't hear the rumble anymore.
The latest Grand Valley study examined the visibility of a proposed wind farm located in Lake Michigan, six miles from shore. The report from the West Michigan Wind Assessment found that such a wind farm would be visible 64 percent of the time based on average weather conditions. This is the third issue brief (pdf) released by the assessment project, which is funded by Michigan Sea Grant (a program that's balanced enough to combine bitter rivals Michigan State and the University of Michigan under one roof.)
Another highlight: Besides being able to see tiny turbines on the horizon 64 percent of the time, the study found it "unlikely that any sound would reach the shore six miles away."
Erik Nordman, principal investigator for the project, sums up the dilemma quite nicely: "We found there are different expectations and uses of the shoreline, from power plants to recreation to relaxation. This information can help open up a discussion to understand the different values of the Great Lakes and whether offshore wind energy is appropriate."
Maybe a good followup question is what's more appropriate on the Great Lakes? Wind or coal? Spinning turbines or deposits of mercury and dead fish?
A Norwegian company called Scandia proposed a $4 billion offshore wind project in Lake Michigan last year. Commissioners in Mason and Oceana counties voted "no."
To refresh your memory, the headline from last year was on a Grand Valley study that discounted many common fears about offshore turbines. In other words, they pose little health risk and aren't as loud as many people believe.

Uruguayan Air Force Flight 571, also known as the Andes flight disaster, was a chartered flight carrying 45 rugby team members and associates that crashed in the Andes on 13 October, 1972. The last of the 16 survivors were rescued on December 23, 1972. More than a quarter of the passengers died in the crash and several more quickly succumbed to cold and injury. Of the twenty-nine who were alive a few days after the accident, another eight were killed by an avalanche that swept over their shelter in the wreckage.
The crash survivors, thinking they would be found and rescued within days, had little food and no source of heat in the harsh climate, at over 3,600 metres (12,000 ft) altitude. Faced with starvation and radio news reports that the search for them had been abandoned, the survivors fed on the dead passengers who had been preserved in the snow. Rescuers did not learn of the survivors until 72 days after the crash when passengers Nando Parrado and Roberto Canessa, after a 12-day trek across the Andes, found a Chilean huaso, who gave them food and then alerted authorities about the existence of the other survivors.

My question is did you ever receive the book?
Are you an owner, employee or ex-employee with either negative or positive information about the company or individual, or can you provide "insider information" on this company?

CPS gets Cs, D, Fs in first report cards with new gradingUPDATED 5:50 PM EDT Aug 22, 2013
At first glance, it appears that Cincinnati Public Schools aren't performing well in the first release of grades from a new grading system, but the superintendent says the grades aren't as bad as they appear.Video Transcript
ARE OUT. AND FOR A LOT OF STUDENTS.. ITS THEIR SCHOOL NOT MAKING THE GRADE! GOOD EVENING I'M MIKE DARDIS. AND I'M SHEREE PAOLELLO. THERE'S A CHANGE .... IN THE RATING SYSTEM THIS YEAR... AND AS WLWT NEWS FIVE'S JOHN LONDON SHOWS US... THE AMOUNT OF SCHOOLS FAILING... HAS PEOPLE TALKING. JOHN. . NOT EVEN ONE SCHOOL IN THE CINCINNATI DISTRICT LOOKS BETTER UNDER THE NEW GRADING SYSTEM. C-P-S SAYS IT SUPPORTS RAISING THE BAR... BUT, WHEN IT COMES DOWN TO THE LETTER, ALL IS NOT WHAT IT MAY APPEAR... As an example, take Walnut Hills where a $73 million Building for Excellence renovation is nearing completion. Under the old system, its rating would be excellent. Under the state's new one: five A's, a D and two F's. (Jeffrey Brokamp - Principal, Walnut Hills High) ("The old saying what gets measured, gets done and I'm a firm believer in that. But, when the measurement process becomes as political as it has become and so agenda-driven, it becomes totally invalid.") Walnut's principal says its curriculum is a proven success. Whether it's in Sam Pogoni's Latin Level 3 instruction... (music) Or John Caliguri's orchestral music class. Ohio Education Superintendent Dr. Richard Ross believes the new letter grade system is easier to grasp. (Dr. Richard Ross - Ohio Education Superintendent) ("Taxpayers, moms and dads, everybody understands A through F.") Understanding is on everyone's lips today. (Superintendent Ronan) ("It's just completely different and that's what I'd like to emphasize to our parents.") Cincinnati public schools displayed a chart showing its performance level about the same as a year ago. But, the district's overall letter grades are two C's, one D and six F's. Fair evaluation? (Mary Ronan - Cincinnati School Superintendent) ("I would have preferred they waited until the new assessments came in because everything is out of sync at the moment.") The state says it'll be helpful to reveal the failing areas in any district including those previously considered excellent with distinction. (music) But, the notes don't ring true to critics who worry how the kids will process all this ... (Catherine Ingram - Cincinnati School Board) ("By always throwing in their face that they're failures and for the most part these are poor and minority children that we claim we're trying to save.") SO, AS THEY GET THEIR MESSAGE OUT TONIGHT... CITY SCHOOL LEADERS PLEDGE TO LIVE WITHIN THE NEW SYSTEM AND GET THE LETTER GRADES HIGHER... ADDING IT'S GOING TO TAKE A FEW YEARS. REPORTING LIVE, JOHN LONDON, WLWT NEWS FIVE. WE WANT TO HELP YOU RESEARCH YOUR CHILD'S SCHOOL.. AND DISTRICT. GO TO WLWT-DOT-COM. WE HAVE THE RESOURCES YOU NEED.. TO GET THE GRADES FOR EVERY SCHOOL.... AND SCHOOL DISTRICT IN OHIO.
