- 1⁄2 teaspoon ground cumin

- 1⁄2 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 1 teaspoon dried parsley
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 (14 1/2 ounce) can diced tomatoes
- Place the onion, garlic, carrots, sweet potatoes, garbanzo beans, and chicken and vegetables. Pour in the tomatoes, and stir to combine.

Most Helpful
Very tasty and easy to make. I cooked everything on low for 8 hours, so the flavors could really work their magic. I also doubled the spices, and it came out just right. This one is a keeper, for sure.
This didn't fare well for us I did omit the onion and salt for dietary reasons or otherwise made as per recipe but allowed 4 to 6 hours for cooking in my crock pot at the 4 hour mark the chicken was cooked nicely but the vegies were still hard and by the 5 hour mark the vegies were perfect but the chicken had become dry and even though the dish smelt wonderful the flavours did not come out in the taste, therefore if making again I would use skinless thigh and add more spices, thank you ElizabethKnicely, made for Best of 2013 and recommended by loof.
Wow - this is absolutely delicious! I used about half the chicken called for and took the suggestion of another reviewer and doubled the spices (except the salt). Smelled amazing while cooking and came out with a rich, hearty, flavorful meal. As expected, leftovers were terrific as well. Thanks for sharing a keeper! Made for ZWT9, The Apron String Travelers

I'm so glad to know that we have some women Urologist! It's a blessing to have Dr. Li who is one of the best in her specialty! She is so kind, caring , and explains your condition to you very distinctly. Makes your exam comfortable. Brilliant doctor, and staff excellent! Helped me tremendously.
excellent doctor who cares
I am sorry, last year when my husband was having issues with kidneys, the hospital he was in sent him to Dr. Li. My husband complained of pain with the cather and was told that it was cancer pain. She kept saying that it was cancer pain, and I believe that my husband knew where the pain was coming from and she would not listen, nor would she explore why he was the pain. I knew it was not from the cancer as he had just had a cat scan along with other tests and they found no cancer where he was having the pain. So I would not go to her ever again. I can understand her not giving the pain meds, because some people will get addicted to them, but at least try to find out why he was having the pain. She just blew him off and did not even bother to say ok we will find out why you are having pain. I think that the man knows where the pain is . sorry would not even give her one star, but had too
I have been a patient of Dr. Li for about ten years. I would not consider going to another doctor. She diagnosed my condition quickly and also has treated my bladder growths both in the hospital and at her Wayne office. She is always professional. I have recommended Dr. Li to my primary care doctor who has told me that everyone she has referred to Dr. Li, has only great things to say about her.
Just adjectives - impatient, rushed, abrupt, rude, discourteous, offensive, lacking compassion, no follow-up, aggressive, curt, tense, dismissive and absolutely no bed side manner. We were in room for 10 minutes waiting - when the doctor arrived - she was dismissive and rushed - she attempted to leave without completing examination - 3 times - having spent no more than 10 minutes in the room she started yelling at patient and family member for inconveniencing her with too many questions (regarding life altering procedure). FIND ANOTHER UROLOGIST!
Please, please do not go to this doctor. She is cold and heartless and only out to make money. You wait 45 minutes to see her and she only spends 2 minutes with you. The first time I went. She didn't even examine me. She diagnosed me with intersticial cystitis. A very painful disease but makes me beg her for pain meds. She never calls back when you leave message with the office. She has left me crying hysterical at times. I reported her to the insurance company for patient abandonment. I am now looking for a new urologist. I regret ever going to her.
After waiting 1 hour to see this doctor, we were told that we had to see a technitican who could hardly speak or understand English. After being taken into a darkened room this man told my husband (I wa in the room) to and I quote"pee in that pot." We ten go out into the office and were told we coukld not see the doctor but had to make a new appointment to see her. this test was after she sent my husband to Monctclair Radiolog under the pretense that she thought his stomach was distended. This because he gets up during the night to go to the bathroom. We could not on that date see the doctor and her very rude office worker said we had to make another appointment. His file was sitting on the desk near her placed there by the technician, and was told she had to retrieve his results. We then asked if the doctor could call us she rather rudely okay. The doctor never called. We called her twice more after several days and she finally called back to say all the tests were negative. But she was going to give him a perscription but she could not call the pharmacey, he had to make another appointment to come to see her. Why so she could get more money! A new appointment was made so he could go there and have her order a perscription because all the tests were negative. Her charges were as follows:Initial visit $209.00 to make a referral to Montclair Radioligy.2nd visit technician was the onlyone seen. $726.00 $428.00 for a US pelvic and $298 to "pee in the pot"3rd visit to get a perscription becasue notheing was wrong $209.00 no examination merely wrote a perscription.Montclair Radiology fee for Ultrasound. $160.00$160.$209.$209.$726.Setting aside the $160. for Montclair Radiology Her fee was $1144 for approx. 3 minutes of time, "pee in a pot" and to write a perxcription for no diagnosis. I might also add the medication perscribed Rapaflo has more side affects than you can count and never did she counsel my husband on some of ramifications and whether he was on any other medication. Needless to say he never took this medicine. DO WE ALL KNOW WHY WE NEED MEDICAL REFORM IN THIS COUNTRY. UNSCROUPOLUS DOCTORS LIKE SHARON LI IS THE REASON. tHIS IS NOT TO CONDEMN ALL DOCTORS ONLY THOSE OF HER ILK.

Team India going down the drain!
Honestly, it wasn't really surprising to see this five wicket loss to Pakistan, for a fact that our Indian cricketers are so engrossed and preoccupied with other things going in their head that they can barely focus on the game. With so much happening on the cricket front almost everyday, it's only obvious that Team India players get distracted, which clearly reflects on their on-ground performance. Then blame it on Sachin Tendulkar's retirement from ODI cricket that has left a deep void in the team, or Dhoni's captaincy coming under the scanner time and again, there's enough to be pointed out behind this disappointing defeat.
On top of it, our veteran cricketers too do not leave any stone unturned to make things worse by coming up with baseless arguments every now and then and speculating their own reasons on why the team isn't performing to the mark. Evidently, there are numerous reasons obstructing Team India's game play on the field but for how long players can continue to put the blame on others and not take the onus. It's high time that Team India starts to concentrate on strategies that can help then win big matches, instead of wasting time and getting embroiled in worthless controversies. Let's hope that matches to come in the high-voltage limited series would bring some rejoicing moments for Indian cricket fans. Fingers crossed!

It is a pleasure to travel to a nice range and shoot in safety and comfort, without fear of damaging someone's property or livestock. However, we can't take our ranges for granted. A place to shoot is not a God-granted right. We may have to cajole our neighbor into letting us shoot in his or her pasture, but most of us are within a reasonable driving distance of one of the more than 350 ranges in Texas.
In the current Texas legislative session, anti-gun groups and some legislators have claimed that range safety problems are widespread across the state. Legislation (House Bill 2169 by Eliot Naishtat) has been introduced that calls for burdensome state and county regulation of our ranges that will potentially close many of our outdoor ranges. Proposed regulations include:
A 6-foot chain link fence around the entire range, including bullet impact areas.
20-foot high earthen berms on three sides.
Insurance policy of $1 million.
Complete lead cleanup and removal every four years.
No sounds louder than 55 decibels at the edge of range property (every auto makes more noise than this in passing).
All ranges will be permitted and licensed by the Department of Public Safety.
Naishtat is in the process of revising his bill because of overwhelming negative comments from gun owners and from his fellow legislators. Whatever the final content of his bill, it will be restrictive and unacceptable range regulation.
Meanwhile, Rep. Bill Carter (R-Fort Worth) has introduced HB 2399, shooting range protection legislation that will provide shooting ranges with a measure of protection against nuisance lawsuits because of noise and the extremely high liability insurance requirements. It does not prohibit suits or actions for negligent or reckless range operations.
There are shooting ranges in Texas that have been closed and others are in trouble because of nuisance lawsuits. The Fort Worth Rifle and Pistol Club range was established in 1948, and like most ranges near metropolitan areas, neighbors have moved in. In the recent past, the FWR&PC negotiated a 20-year lease with the City of Fort Worth for its range, but it was never ratified by the City Council.
Some neighbors found out and filed lawsuits against the club and the city, claiming the range has degraded water quality of nearby creeks, is a noise and safety nuisance and should be closed with damages paid to the neighbors. The Fort Worth City Council invoked a clause in the 20-year lease (that wasn't ratified), allowing the city to close the range with a 365-day notice. In February 1999, the range was closed, and the Fort Worth Rifle and Pistol Club was disbanded. At one time FWR&PC membership exceeded 1,000.
The owners of the Eagle Peak shooting range in Leander, near Austin, have been sued by neighbors, claiming the range is a nuisance and a safety hazard that has lowered land values. The owners have had to pay a large judgement. The case is being appealed. Meanwhile, the neighbors obtained an injunction shutting the range down, but the owners showed that the range is safe, and the injunction was lifted in 1998.
Ironically, the neighbor that brought the suits against Eagle Peak recently purchased an additional 60 acres near the impact area. The range was in operation long before most of the neighbors moved in. Eagle Peak owners have spent more than $150,000 improving the range, installing baffles and 20-foot berms. It is one of the premier ranges in Texas, but it is under siege.
In visiting with the owners of Eagle Peak and with Carol Shelton, six-term past president of the Fort Worth club, several similarities in their problems became apparent. Both ranges were in operation long before the neighbors who caused the problems moved in. The motive for trying to close the ranges is money. The neighbors want to develop the land, and as long as the ranges are in operation, they'll have difficulty in doing so.
The Eagle Peak owners described the first attempts to close the Leander range as "sly." The Fort Worth club's past president described the first actions by neighbors as "coy." Thus what began as a minor nuisance or confrontation with a neighbor soon escalated into very expensive legal battles that resulted in the closing of the Fort Worth Range and endangers the existence of Eagle Peak range.
There are some lessons to be learned that can help other range owners / operators / clubs. Shelton, in retrospect, listed four things that the FWR&PC might have done to avoid the closing of the Fort Worth range.
The first was to consolidate and baffle the different ranges to show the neighbors and the public that the club was working on safety and was concerned with running a range that was safe for the shooters and the neighbors. Range appearance means a lot.
Shelton's second point was unification of the club, with everyone supporting the club and range, and not just supporting their shooting discipline. Her third point was that the club should have been proactive in initiating a lead management program, which would have avoided many of the environmental problems and potential liabilities that helped shut down the range.
I think that Shelton's fourth point is the key to solving range problems with neighbors.
Shelton stated that a range or club should "strive to become a vital community asset through education, training and recreational shooting and be a good neighbor." Our ranges are vital for many purposes, including hunter education and training, law enforcement training, self-defense training, youth programs such as 4-H and Boy Scouts, and for recreational and competitive shooting. The greater number of these programs that a range or club encompasses, the stronger and more vital are the community ties and support.
In addition to conducting and supporting these programs, it is essential that we be a good neighbor. Potential "good neighbor" activities can include sponsoring blood drives, conducting charitable fund-raisers for a community-supported cause such as the Food Bank and Toys for Tots, sponsoring a community-wide youth firearm safety education program (Eddie Eagle), hosting an open house, or conducting hunter sight-in days.
Most people realize that shooting ranges are important public safety resources, and 31 states have passed range protection laws to prevent nuisance lawsuits that are expensive to defend and can shut down range operations. Regarding range safety issues, county law enforcement officials already have the power to shut a range down if dangerous situations exist.
Texas needs range protection legislation, not range regulation. Help make Texas the 32nd state to protect its ranges.
Call or write your Texas legislator to support HB 2399. Rep. John Smithee, Amarillo, is a member of the House Civil Practices Committee considering this bill.

RadioMilwaukee awards event is place to meet
In the four months that I've been covering music full time for the Journal Sentinel, I've met a lot of local musicians, launched our annual 10 Wisconsin Bands to Watch feature, started this-here local music column and watched a bunch of great performances for our Sound Check series in the Tap Milwaukee studios. But I know there are many more people involved in the scene I need to meet, and a whole lot of ground left to cover.

Rosacea in the 19th Century
Throughout the 1800s, clinical illustrations helped to formalize what was then the recently developed field of dermatology. The increasingly superior quality of these images aided in the early distinction between rosacea and acne. Images are from the "Medical history of the representation of rosacea in the 19th century" (Bernard Cribier, MD, PhD, J Am Acad Dermatology.)

Parisian Pâtisseries And Pastry Shops Are Like A Little Slice of Heaven
By Paige Donner
Paris Local Expert
Begin your discovery of fine French pastries with a bite into one of the absolute not-to-be-missed French macarons. Until you've tried one you'll have no idea what all the fuss is about. Suffice it to say that they are nothing – and I repeat, nothing – at all like our macaroons (notice, please, too, the different spelling). French macarons are bursting-with-flavor little cookie cakes with a cream ganache center that comes in flavors like passion-orange, rose, salted caramel, licorice, lavender and chocolate. They are little light-as-air things but my do they ever pack the flavor punch. So be sure to mark March 20th on your calendar, it's Macaron Day in France ! Other French classics are the Baba au Rhum, the Opéra, the Marie Antoinette... each one of them will have sugarplum fairies and fanciful sweet things dancing through your head once you've savored a bite.
One of the recent trends in the city are the sugar-free or reduced sugar and flour-alternative pastry shops. There has been a slight wave of gluten-free, in keeping with the rampant trend across "the pond," but that seems to be giving way to pastry shops who are going in a different direction, developing desserts and fine pastries that are greatly reduced in sugar, even to the extent of being diabetic-approved, though you'd never guess it from biting into one of their baked goods. Alternatives to flour include almond powder, already a staple ingredient in macarons, and also things like rice flour and sweet potato paste.
Ladurée - Paris St.Germain
Macarons are one of the crowning glories of French patisseries. An odd statement if you've only ever seen the little round cookies with their ganache filling and never tasted one. Because they are so humble-looking, the explosive flavor packed within each tiny little morsel comes completely unanticipated. Surprising, too, are the flavor combinations that the patissiers, especially these at Ladur�e, conjure up : Orange-ginger, Lime-basil, Strawberry-poppy, Rose, Violet, Strawberry-candy. The seasonal collections are always awaited with abated breath. Ladur�e is known as the originator of macarons because it was Pierre Desfontaines, Louis Ernest Ladur�e's second cousin who, back in the 1930's, happened upon the innovation of layering a creamy ganache between two macaron shells. The recipe is simplicity itself : almonds, eggs and sugar. But the finesse and precision it takes to make a good macaron is mystery and magic wound together. You absolutely must try one...or a dozen ! (+33 1 44 07 64 87)
Helmut Newcake
This is the pioneer patisserie in Paris that launched their no-gluten menu of fine French pastries. When they did that, several years ago, no one in this town was doing it yet. Since then, a number of their pastries have become cult classics and are, mind you, gluten- and dairy-free. Some favorites include their Lemon Tartelette with meringue, La Madame de Fontenay ( a re-visited "Religieuse"), their éclairs and the La Tartelette Pistache Rouge which is a pistachio-based cake adorned with perfectly-perched red fruits. These creations are all conceived of by Marie Tagliaferro, who works with co-founder and husband François. (09 81 31 28 31)
Pierre Hermé
The Ispahan, a rose-flavor-filled croissant, is just one of the things that put Pierre Hermé on the map. And on the map he is. From Paris to Tokyo and I've lost count of all the other places inbetween. This is also the genius patissier behind the founding of Macaron Day in France. A day where macarons are free when you stop in at participating French pastry shops. (Thank you, Lord !) But mostly why gourmets sing the praises of Hermé are for his macarons. Yes the rose-flavored macarons are good sellers, as are the passion-fruit, the mango, the lavender, the cherry-vanilla and the seasonal inspirations. Another not-to-be-missed treat is his pre-boxed lemon pound cake that makes for some bittersweet memories of Paris once you get back home. (01 43 54 47 77)
Foucade Paris
Calling itself the first "Patisserie Positive," this brand new fine pastry boutique is riding the wave of gluten-free and reduced sugar baked goods and fine pastries that has now seemingly firmly taken root in the city. The inspiration of a young entrepreneur-ess, this 20-something business owner is dedicated to serving up pastries that bring pleasure as well as being healthy and without any detrimental side effects to one's figure. What's intriguing is to see, and, of course, taste the creations that use alternative ingredients without sacrificing taste. For example, La Citronnée, is made with raw almond powder, lime cream, lemon, yuzu and basil; or perhaps La Rustique speaks to you? It's prepared with chestnut and whole rice flour along with creamed sweet potato and caramelized apples; Le Soyeux is another pleasant surprise, made with creamy soy milk (non GMO), vanilla, cardamon and unrefined sugar. (01 42 36 11 81)
Gôut de Brioche by Guy Savoy
This is a new concept and it's not strictly a Patisserie... but it is the brainchild of Chef Guy Savoy (three Michelin stars) so you know it's gotta be good. The concept actually arose from his signature dish and dessert at his restaurant. If you've never had a Guy Savoy brioche, you've never had a brioche. True, you can find these cake like confections in most fine bakeries but there is that je ne sais quoi that Chef Savoy's pastry chef, Christian Boudard, has perfected in these pastries that just have them melting in your mouth. This is comfort food splurging and especially satisfying on a cold Paris day. The flavor choices come in both savory and sweet, making them good snacks or breakfast items. The mushroom brioche is featured in one of Chef Savoy's signature dishes at his nearby 3-Star restaurant. . (01 40 46 91 67)
Pâtisserie Lenôtre
Gaston Lenôtre founded what became his patisserie empire back in 1957 in a small pastry shop and bakery in the 16th arrondissement. When he died in 2009 he had created over 60 pastry boutiques in 12 countries. The lightness, airiness and devotion to exquisite presentation in French patisserie are all revolutions that Lenôtre is credited with. He reduced the quantities of flour and sugar in pastry recipes and replaced them with airy mousse and unfloury creams. Today there are Lenôtre pastry and catering shops all over Paris. Lenôtre is known as the Paul Bocuse of patisserie because of his fresh approach to French cuisine. New for 2014 is the Palette Arty collection of patisseries, chocolates and ice creams. These include colorful combinations like basil-lemon, strawberry-ginger and milk chocolate-caramel-orange (ice creams). But the toppers for this summer's "Amazing Jungle" collection is the Planète Fruits Rouges cake and their mojito macaron. (01 45 24 52 52)
This pastry shop is surprising in that its trademark is that it uses very little to no sugar in its recipes. Its tagline is, 'Not just for diabetics." Indeed, the sugar substitutes, such as agave and other natural-based ingredients, work so incredibly well to sweeten their fruit tarts and chocolate pastries that unless someone tells you that you're eating a reduced-sugar treat, you'd never guess it. Strategically located at Les Halles, this is one of those shops deserving of a try, especially when you're tuckered out from a day of shopping and need a pick-me-up without the anticipated sugar crash. (0140279167)
Pâtisserie Christophe Michalak
Positioning himself as the rock-n-roll pastry chef, Michalak offers a whole new take on what it means to be a top-notch pastry chef in Paris. Following a pop-up cream puff stand he did in partnership with another chef a couple years ago, he went ahead and opened his own pastry-making workshop in the 10th arrondissement. For many years the only place you could purchase Michalak's confections were at the Palace Hotel where he has long been the resident-pastry chef. But, since, it's said, the cream rises to the top, now Michalak has just opened in recent months his first patisserie in Paris and it's in the lovely and convenient Marais district, just behind the BHV, in fact. It's best to come in with no expectations and just let your tastebuds be delighted with shapes, forms and combinations that are all together a different take on the meaning of "French p�tisserie." (01 40 27 90 13)
Patisserie Viennoise
This is a closely kept secret of the many students in the area who attend the Sorbonne. The tiny shop is just two shakes from the Odéon métro and it serves some of the best hot chocolate in town, that is, if you like your hot chocolate stiff and thick. The pastries on offer here to accompany that are the good old-fashioned kind you find in Vienna. So think more along the lines of apples and poppy seeds. A stop here offers something different from the baba au rhums and millefeuilles you find in nearly every other pastry shop here in Paris. (01 43 26 60 48)
Les Fées Pâtissières
It's true, this pastry shop looks more like a jewelry store than a shop in which you can buy things that you actually eat. But don't let that intimidate you in the least. The concept that these two (female) pastry chefs carved out here is that the famous French pastries, like the Opéra, the millefeuille, the Réligeuse, are all made in miniature. And if you thought pastry making was a fine art already, try making it on a miniscule size! The pastries are all b ite-sized, sort of like a mini-cupcake but these are fine French pastries. The shop's display showcases these exquisite tiny tasty treats as if they were precious gems, heightening the gourmet experience. (01 42 77 42 15)

->''"There are only two kinds of people in the end: those who say to God, 'Thy will be done,' and those to whom God says, in the end, '''[[BeCarefulWhatYouWishFor Thy]] '''[[BeCarefulWhatYouWishFor will be done.']]"''
''The Great Divorce'' is an allegorical book by Creator/CSLewis.
This book comes from the POV of an AuthorAvatar who finds himself in "the grey town," a dismal place where it is always twilight (the lights are on but are not welcoming) and always raining, even inside. The place is full of empty houses, and our narrator sees other residents only when he enters a queue at a bus station. He then describes how half the people in that queue leave it, never to return.
The bus is shining and brightly colored. Those who board clamor for space despite the bus being half-empty and say bad things about the driver for no good reason. Our narrator is seated, first next to a poet who manages to generate his own {{Wangst}}, and then a man with Great Plans and a broad-minded preacher.
They get to a bright, beautiful open countryside where the sun is about to rise. It is somehow far more real than the place they left. They know it is their chance to leave Hell and get to Heaven. But this world is so much more real (or they are so much ''less'' real) that they appear to be ghosts. (This does include the narrator.) They are translucent, though not intangible -- they are just solid enough to be hurt. And the dimension around them is too real to bend for not-quite-real ghosts like themselves; the wind, the rain --even the blades of grass -- cut right through them.
Each ghost is met by someone who was close to them who is a native, a Bright One. The Bright Ones literally give off light. Some of them are naked, some clothed -- it doesn't make much difference. The Bright Ones try to encourage those they are meeting to come with them to the mountains. Most of them fail.
The title is a reference to Creator/WilliamBlake's ''The Marriage of Heaven and Hell''. Lewis said in his introduction that Blake wrote of the marriage of Heaven and Hell; [[TakeThat he was writing of their divorce.]]
!!This work contains examples of the following tropes:
* AFormYouAreComfortableWith: [=MacDonald=] states that all our choices, and even Time itself, are essentially a kind of image through which we can perceive eternal reality.
* AHellOfATime: The Grey Town doesn't contain the expected sights associated with Hell: devils with pitchforks, sinners being tortured on flaming racks, etc. It's just a depressing, rainy place where constant squabbling causes residents to spread out from everyone else and become TheAloner. However, it's hinted that this is just the antechamber to Hell -- things are about to get much worse once full darkness sets in.
* AnAesop: The intended aesop is that Heaven and Hell are incompatible, though you can change sides.
* AllJustADream: Lewis was careful to hammer the MST3KMantra home in the preface and the last chapter.
* AllTakeAndNoGive: Two of the damned want to be Givers, and aren't allowed. They literally have nothing to offer the residents of Heaven, and until they accept this they cannot enjoy paradise themselves.
* AncientConspiracy: The Hard-Bitten Ghost, who has SeenItAll, believes that the controlling forces for both sides of all conflicts, including HeavenAndHell, are actually on the same side.
* AnythingThatMoves: One of the Ghosts appears to have grown so obsessed with sex that she is unable to conceive of any purpose for interaction other than seduction, and actually tries to seduce the Bright Ones who are trying to talk to her.
* ArbitrarySkepticism: Staggeringly so. One character continues to deny that "Heaven" and "God" are literal things that exist, and insists they're just metaphors. This is while he actually has died, is in the afterlife, and is talking to a resident of Heaven, who offers to take him to see God this very minute.
* AnswersToTheNameOfGod:
--> '''A Ghost:''' "I just want my deserts, see? I'm not asking for anyone's bleeding charity."
--> '''A Person:''' "Then do so at once. Ask for the Bleeding Charity. Everything is here for the asking and nothing can be bought."
** There's also an exchange where a Ghost exclaims "God!" to the confusion of one of the Bright Ones, who only uses the word "God" as [[{{God}} a noun]]. The Ghost has to embarrassedly explain that he meant something like "[[GoshDangItToHeck By gum]]."
* AuthorAvatar: The narrator.
* BeautyIsNeverTarnished: One of the two main points of the story: there is no room for evil or sin ''whatsoever'' in Heaven. Many of the Ghosts refuse to go to Heaven because it will mean giving up their quirks, such as saying mean things to their loved ones.
** The contrapostive of that statement also falls under that trope. ''Everything'' in us can find its fullest and most joyful expression in Heaven, if it will only submit first to God. Specifically seen in the case of the Lizard, which represented a certain Ghost's uncontrollable lust. After the Lizard is killed by an Angel (with the Ghost's permission), the Ghost turns into a Person, and the Lizard is reincarnated as a Stallion, an expression of joyful, holy, physicality.
* CardCarryingVillain: Easier to save than a KnightTemplar or WellIntentionedExtremist. If you know you're evil, you can be converted to good. If you think you're good, it's harder.
* CityNoir: "The grey town," a dismal place where it is always twilight and where it's always raining, even inside.
* ConspiracyTheorist: We meet one or two of them.
* DeadToBeginWith: Every human character other than the narrator
* DrivenToSuicide: The Tousle-Headed Poet. According to him, all the bad things that happened to him were [[NeverMyFault Never His Fault]].
* DomesticAbuse: We see two not-very-good spouses in Hell. Robert's Wife is a control freak who forced him into what ''she'' considered success, and Frank Smith emotionally manipulated his wife Sarah using pity. Both of them try their shtick with the Bright Ones, but it doesn't work.
* TheEndOfTheWorldAsWeKnowIt: What sunrise in Heaven will do to Hell and to anyone who's still a ghost.
* EveryoneCallsHimBarkeep: Not all the ghosts and heavenly beings are named, and Lewis usually gives them nicknames (like the Big Ghost, the Hard-Bitten Ghost, and so on). The ghosts and Bright Ones whose names we do learn are usually learned in passing in conversation. There are only two exceptions to this: [=MacDonald=], whom Lewis recognizes, and Sarah Smith.
* ExcessiveMourning: One mother's obsession with her son resulted in this.
* FanDisservice: There's one ghost who attempts to seduce the Bright One trying to talk to her. The narrator describes it thus:
-->If a corpse already liquid with decay had risen from the grave, smeared lipstick on its gums, and attempted a flirtation, the result could not have been more appalling.
* FlatEarthAtheist: Quite a few people persist in their atheism even in the afterlife.
* FriendToAllLivingThings: Sarah Smith has won over practically every person and every living creature she's ever met, which is why we learn her name. The only person she couldn't win over was her husband[[spoiler: and cannot even in the afterlife]].
* GrayRainOfDepression: A constant issue in Hell, especially since everything else there is insubstantial.
* HardLight: "The light, like solid blocks, intolerable of edge and weight, came thundering upon my head."
* HellOfAHeaven: After comparing heaven and hell, most of the damned choose hell, although this is less because Heaven's a bad place and more because going there means that they have to give up their sins, which most are unwilling to do.
* HenpeckedHusband: Robert. He never appears, but we meet his ControlFreak wife.
* HistoricalDomainCharacter: Creator/GeorgeMacDonald, Lewis's favorite author, appears as his SpiritAdvisor in heaven. UsefulNotes/{{Napoleon|Bonaparte}} also makes a cameo, and several others are discussed.
* IdiotBall: Most of the Ghosts.
* IgnoredEpiphany: Very many.
* ItIsDehumanizing: After spending some time on the verge of Heaven, the author refers to the shades from Hell as "it" rather than "he" or "she".
* ItsAllAboutMe: The suffering of the ghosts in Hell ultimately stems from their profound self-absorption, such that many of them are unable to understand the guidance of the Bright Ones because they interpret the advice through their own prejudices, or refuse to venture up the slopes of Heaven because they are unwilling to give up some minor character flaw.
* ItsThePrincipleOfTheThing: Most of the ghosts decided that accepting the help of the Bright People was a terrible violation of one important principle or another.
* KarmaHoudini: Some Bright Ones appear to be this by most measures. It's a severe stumbling block for some ghosts, most notably the Big Ghost, whose guide got to Heaven via deathbed conversion. The point Lewis is making is that ''everyone'' in Heaven is a KarmaHoudini. It's no good saying one person deserves Heaven more than another, because in the end, ''no one does.'' The ones who make it in are those who realize they'll never earn it on their own merits, and accept Jesus' gift.
* KarmicDeath: We see a couple of these.
* TheKnightsWhoSaySquee: The narrator begins to gush with admiration when he realizes he's met Creator/GeorgeMacDonald, until the latter stops him, pointing out he's familiar with his own biography.
* MadeOfIron: Heaven. From the people to the water to the sunlight, everything in Heaven is solider than anything on Earth.
* MadeOfPlasticine: The Ghosts from Hell are barely solid enough to lift apples.
* MadnessMantra / NeverMyFault: "It was Soult's fault. It was Ney's fault. It was Josephine's fault. It was the fault of the English. It was the fault of the Russians."
* TheMasochismTango: A husband and wife who leave the line for the bus quarreling. It is clear that they will go on trashing each other forever.
* MotherhoodIsSuperior: One of the damned souls thinks this is true. Her brother in Heaven gently informs her that her father and daughter revolted over her mourning for her dead son not because they were less loving but because she was obsessed and uncaring. At one point, one character points out to the narrator that she would gladly demand to take her son to Hell to keep possession of him.
* MrExposition: One of the ghosts that Lewis meets on the bus tells him how Hell works and why it's so empty (Everyone arrives at the same place, but since nobody can get along with anyone else, they quickly move away, and spread through the town), as lead-up to his point about why he's going up (most things in Hell can be gotten simply by imagining them, so he wants to go to Heaven to get ahold of something that can be called a commodity and use economics to force people to stay together).
* MundaneAfterlife: Hell is just a rainy twilit town that gives new meaning to "urban sprawl". This is even [[LampshadeHanging lampshaded]] by some who remark that the one draw of Hell -- the chance to talk to the great sinners -- is more or less impossible because of the distance.
* MyBelovedSmother: One of the more heart-wrenching conversations is on this theme. The mother in question mourned her son to the point where she ignored her other children, her husband and God. MacDonald suspects if the narrator listened to her conversation further, she would try and force her son to come to Hell so she could have him.
* OurGhostsAreDifferent: We only see the Ghosts who decide to visit Heaven, but there's some discussion about Ghosts who take similar visits back to Earth.
* PetTheDog: The Ghost with the Lizard lets the angel kill his sin and becomes a Bright One.
* PointOfNoReturn: Any sin, unremedied, leads to this. Interestingly, this is usually symbolized as someone [[PutOnABus returning to the bus.]]
* {{Pride}}: The number one factor keeping people from accepting grace.
* TheScottishTrope: The damned never speak of Hell as Hell.
* SelfInflictedHell: Arguably one of the two main points of the book: The only reason the Ghosts end up in Hell is because of their own petty issues, when the chance to go to Heaven is right in front of them.
** Hell itself very much runs on "[[Theatre/NoExit Hell is Other People]]". On its own, it's just a rainy, depressing town, with nothing really nice there. What makes it hellish is the fact that everyone there is a jerk, and no one can stand each others' company. In fact, the town is mostly empty because quarrels bad enough that the participants decide to move away happen very frequently.
* ShoutOut: To ''The Man Who Lived Backwards'' by Charles F. Hall (Lewis had forgotten the author and title, though), in which the immutability of the past while [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin living backwards in time]] results in IntangibleTimeTravel.
** Also, this being C. S. Lewis, to lots of literary and philosophical authors including Creator/WilliamBlake, Prudentius, Jeremy Taylor, [[Literature/DivineComedy Dante]], Creator/JohnMilton, and of course Creator/GeorgeMacDonald.
* SillyRabbitCynicismIsForLosers: The Hard-Bitten Ghost Deconstructs cynicism and the thought that the cynical view of the world is more reliable (the Narrator describes his appearance as being of the type that he (the Narrator) has always found reliable, and the Narrator trusts his words enough to go into a HeroicBSOD because of them). He's a conspiracy theorist who has lost all ability to enjoy anything because he's so cynical, and thinks that all of the Wonders of the World are just tourist traps run by a World Combine. He's in hell, and he can't accept that he can get into Heaven because he doesn't trust the Bright People's assurances that those who choose to go to Heaven can become more solid. Heck, he doesn't believe in Heaven at all, and thinks that Heaven and Hell are secretly on the same side, faking the war to extort from the Ghosts.
* SpecialPersonNormalName: One of the most important Bright Ones, a FriendToAllLivingThings woman of saintlike goodness, is named Sarah Smith; this demonstrates that a nobody on Earth can become exceptional in Heaven.
* SpiritAdvisor: Every visitor from Hell gets one; though the Heavenly Beings are all fully visible to one another, the Hellish ones can only perceive depending on certain circumstances.
* SpiritualAntithesis: To ''The Marriage of Heaven and Hell''.
* SpiritualSuccessor: ''The Great Divorce'' can be seen as a modern(ish), less unsubtle counterpart to John Bunyan's classic ''Literature/ThePilgrimsProgress''; both works are allegories for the Christian faith where almost every character represents an ideology or a personal vice, and they both [[spoiler:turn out to be dreams at the end]]. Lewis also wrote ''The Pilgrim's Regress'' which was more blatantly inspired by Bunyan's work right down to the title.
* ThereAreTwoKindsOfPeopleInTheWorld: Those who say to God "Thy will be done," and those to whom God says, [[BeCarefulWhatYouWishFor "Thy will be done."]]
* TheTreacheryOfImages:
** The blessed former apostate finally gives up on trying to reason with his damned apostate friend not very long after the damned soul has gone so far off the deep end in his pseudo-intellectual diatribe that he ends up complaining about how the blessed man is talking "as if there some hard, fixed reality where things are, so to speak, 'there'."
** Painting as a way to depict particular subject matters or for its own sake is also discussed between a damned artist (who wants the paint) and his more heavenly-minded friend (who is trying to get him to focus on a much worthier Subject).
* TimeStandsStill: Lewis had the idea for the story from a half-remembered story about a time traveller. Nothing the spirits do can effect any real change [[note]]just as nothing the time traveller could do made any difference to the past -- right down to being able to bend a blade of grass or bite into a sandwich[[/note]] -- Hell is always damp and miserable and Heaven is so much 'realer' than the spirits that the grass cuts into their feet instead of bending to them.
* UnreliableNarrator: When not called on it, the ghosts will present very unreliable accounts -- the Tousle-Headed Poet and the grumbling woman in particular.
* WantingIsBetterThanHaving: One ghost argues this: It's better to travel hopefully than to arrive. The Bright One returns that if you knew that to be true, you could not travel in hope, because how can you hope to reach an inferior destination?
* WasOnceAMan: Many of the Hellish spirits are so bitter that there's very little left of them.
* WhatCouldHaveBeen: [[invoked]] Used in-universe. The apostate bishop speculates about how Christianity could have turned out differently (and, in his opinion, better) if Jesus had not been crucified, and had continued teaching throughout his life. This is, of course, CompletelyMissingThePoint: according to Christian orthodoxy, it's Jesus' death and resurrection that makes it possible for sinners (that is, everyone) to enter heaven.
* WhatHappenedToTheMouse: The Tousle-Head Poet simply disappears after his scene on the bus, with no indication of whether he chooses to stay or go. The audience doesn't get to see the final decisions of the possessive mother, or the woman caught in the unicorn stampede, either, although there's slightly more closure in these cases, since [=MacDonald=] gives educated guesses on what their final decisions might be (he thinks the possessive mother ultimately won't stay, but that the other woman may have a chance, providing the stampede distracts her enough to stop obsessing over herself and listen to her Guide.)
* WoundedGazelleGambit: Sarah Smith's husband Frank's sin was using other peoples' pity to manipulate them and make them miserable. This trait is represented by the Tragedian.
* {{Yandere}}: The possessive mother; [=MacDonald=] explains that LoveMakesYouCrazy in Hell, whereas LoveRedeems in Heaven.

Motovation Frame Sliders for Diavel 1200 11-14
Product Information
Motovation Frame Sliders for Diavel 1200 11-14
*These frame sliders protect your Ducati Diavel frame, water pump and crank case during a slide. This kit is specially made for the Ducati Diavel.
*These frame sliders have been designed with a 12 mm stainless steel through-the-engine rod that is threaded at both ends. Stainless steel was chosen because it provides a better bearing surface due to the material's natural slickness that reduces engine to rod friction during engine running.
*Additionally unlike other designs that provide a superstrong stainless steel mounting point for the sliders, our sliders feature aluminum inserts/collars in the sliders to provide the strongest frame to slider contact possible without compromising the shock absorbing qualities of the nylon. This new design also uses a grip nut on one side and a spring washer on the other to facilitate easier installations without compromising security.
*Click here for more information about design and selection of frame sliders. The fit and finish is specific to the bikes that they are made for. Sliders are made from our our own UV inhibited nylon formulation that is more resistant to abrasion and will not fade or become brittle over time.
*Comes with replacement nuts and stainless steel washers. A relatively easy install with minimal tools.

Madeleine Johnson: Why the Pilgrims Thrived at PlymouthRoundup: Talking About History
Madeleine Johnson is a science writer and former neuroscientist.
Rat urine. As we feast on succulent turkey, moist stuffing, and glistening cranberry sauce this Thanksgiving, the furthest thing from our minds is probably rat urine.
Yet it's quite possible that America as we know it would not exist without rat urine and leptospirosis, the disease it spreads. The disease conveniently cleared coastal New England of Native Americans just prior to the Pilgrims' arrival and later killed the helpful Squanto. It still lurks among us, underdiagnosed, an emerging menace.
In the winter of 1620, the Mayflower happened to dock at an abandoned village. It had been known in the local Wampanoag language as Patuxet. Pilgrims rejoiced; the land "hath been planted with corn three or four years ago, and there is a very sweet brook runs under the hillside." In fact, the French explorer Samuel de Champlain had observed what would become Plymouth harbor 15 years earlier and drew a map of native homes surrounded by fields of corn.
Where had all the people gone? As the Pilgrims thanked God for their luck, they were unaware that the previous tenants had died of a gruesome infectious disease...

NBC Sports' television broadcast of the 130th running of the Preakness Stakes (gr. I) averaged a 5.1/13 national rating/share, down sharply from last year when Smarty Jones captured the middle leg of the Triple Crown, but up slightly from the same figures for 2003.The 5.1 rating dropped 16.4% from the 2004 broadcast, which earned the company a 6.1/15 rating/market share. The rating is up 2% from 2003 when the network had a 5.0/13 posting. NBC also reported that the "pre-race" rating averaged a 3.5, while the race segment itself rated a significantly higher 6.3. NBC Spokesperson Alana Russo said that 1.096 million households make up one rating point. Calling the 2004 Smarty Jones telecast ratings an "anomaly," Russo said the more accurate comparison would be the immediate years preceding that year's Preakness."The five-year average rating for 2001-2005 for NBC's broadcasts of the Preakness is a 5.5--a 41% increase over the last five years the race was broadcast on ABC (3.9 average from 1996-2000)," said Russo. Russo also added that NBC produced the five highest rated Preakness broadcasts to air since 1992.NBC will also televise the June 11 Belmont Stakes (gr. I) from Belmont Park in Elmont, N.Y. A recent deal between the New York Racing Association and executives at ABC ensures that the third and longest race of the series will move to that network in 2006. Still, Russo said NBC remains confident."It's always tough when you don't have a Triple Crown contender as we did last year and the year before, but Afleet Alex is obviously another great story," said Russo. "We'll have to wait and see what happens but we're confident we will offer a great broadcast."

What is Java, Really?
Java conjures up a variety of images for computer users everywhere. Some picture flying heads and cartoonish figures that wave from web pages. Others remember segmentation faults and hung Netscapes. Most people are left staring at the steaming cup-o'-joe icon, having no idea what it all really means. This article will discuss what exactly Java is, and where it fits in the big picture of computing.
The Java programming language is roughly similar to C++, Objective C and Smalltalk, with some features removed and a few features added:
It is procedural, like C, as opposed to functional like Lisp.
It is object-oriented, like C++. It supports classes, single class inheritance, multiple interface inheritance, access protection and exceptions. It does not support operator overloading or templates (though it may support template-like constructs in the future).
All casts are dynamic and safe; it's impossible to cast an object to an inappropriate type.
Everything in Java is class-oriented. There is no global scope, there are no global variables, and there are no explicit function pointers.
Arrays of arbitrary dimension are supported and act like objects.
It supports threads and provides synchronization primitives. Threads, sometimes called lightweight processes, allow several separate execution paths to run concurrently through a program. Synchronization primitives ensure that separate tasks are performed in the correct order.
It supports modules, so it doesn't need a preprocessor. There are no #include directives as the equivalent functionality is built into the languagex), no macros, no #define, etc.
It supports garbage-collection, and there is no support for explicit deallocation. This simplifies programming dramatically and eliminates all memory allocation errors.
All objects implicitly use reference semantics, which roughly means every object acts like a pointer, but used as if it were a value. All base types (int, char, etc.) use value semantics.
Java is safe, meaning it is impossible to: de-reference a pointer outside a segment; use memory that has been deallocated; or use an object as the wrong type. A Java program will never cause a segmentation fault (actually, the Java interpreter does have a few bugs that can result in an application crashing, but these are being fixed).
Java comes bundled with a standard library called the Java API (Application Program Interface) that provides:
Basic file input and output
Networking, particularly TCP/IP, UDP, and HTTP
Basic dynamic container classes like Vector, Dictionary, etc.
Graphics and GUI programming
Another important component of the Java system is the compiler. A Java compiler translates source files (e.g., Foo.java) into one or more class files (e.g., Foo.class). The .class files correspond roughly to the .o (or .obj) files in C, but there is one crucial difference: while .o files contain machine-specific instructions, .class files contain only a generic pseudo-assembly-code called Bytecode that is uniform across all platforms. To enable this, every platform that supports Java must have a Java runtime that will interpret and execute Java Bytecode.
The underlying Bytecode to which Java compiles is described under Sun's Java Virtual Machine (or JVM) specification (java.sun.com/doc/vmspec/html/vmspec-1.html) A Java runtime emulates a JVM, so that it can run the Java Bytecode contained within .class files. The JVM is a key component to Java's ubiquity; rather than require that every individual application support multiple platforms, developers need only write one version of a program, and are assured that it will run everywhere. The only program that needs to be ported across multiple platforms is the Java runtime. Despite Java's youth, most major platforms are supported.
Let's now take a moment to trace the steps involved in letting you see waving animated characters within your web browser.
A programmer on the Web somewhere writes a Java program, and converts .java source files into .class files using a java compiler. This programmer puts a reference to these .class files within an <APPLET> tag in her web page.
You point your browser to her web page, and your browser sees the <APPLET> tag pointing to the .class files. Your browser then downloads her .class files over the net.
Your browser starts up its Java runtime subsystem and begins executing the .class files that it downloaded.
At this point, you might be wondering what prevents a malicious programmer from doing horrible things to your computer while the comforting cartoonish character distracts you from the sound of your hard drive as it's being reformatted. The answer lies in the Java SecurityManager. This class, a part of the standard, implements a security policy for all untrusted programs. Here, untrusted programs are those that are downloaded over the net. In the current release of Netscape, the SecurityManager that the Java runtime uses does not allow untrusted Java programs to read or write files, nor does it allow them to make network connections anywhere except to the host from which the program came. This, then, forms a sort of sand box in which the Java program is confined.
Another key facet of the Java security model is the Bytecode Verifier. The Bytecode Verifier checks all incoming programs to make sure that they satisfy some basic safety constraints (e.g., every pointer cast is a safe one, there can be no stack overflows, etc.). This prevents malicious programmers from creating bad .class files by programming Java Bytecode by hand in an effort to circumvent the safety features of the Java language. If your Netscape downloads a .class file that fails to pass the verification stage, it will simply refuse to run the code.
Most people view Java as the programming language of the Web. Though Java certainly serves well in this regard, it is actually much more general; it is appropriate for stand-alone, non-Web programming as well. You can write Java programs that can be run outside of a web browser, and as trusted programs they can do everything a C or C++ program might do, such as access the file-system. In fact, in the Linux development pre-2.0 kernels there is support for the Java binary format. This support means that you can run Java Bytecode programs just as you would run ELF- or a.out-format executables from the command line, without explicitly invoking a Java runtime. The great advantage of writing programs in Java is that they are immediately portable across a wide variety of platforms and architectures.
One problem with current Java implementations is speed; performance is many times slower than C under most current implementations. This is because the Java Bytecode is interpreted, unlike native assembly code compiled from C programs which is run directly by the processor. The speed problem is being mitigated, however, by the development of so-called "Just-In-Time" compilers. These compilers (which are actually part of the Java runtime system) compile .class files into native assembly code on the fly. In so doing, they can speed up Java programs many times. Furthermore, since they only compile classes as they execute, the typical initial delay associated with traditional compilation is eliminated. As these compilers mature, we can expect the performance hit associated with Java to disappear.
At this point, you may want to know how you can become Java-enabled. If you simply want to run Java applets on your machine, (that is, Java programs transferred over the Web) you can do so using the latest Netscape beta, available from www.netscape.com/. If you'd like to begin experimenting with programming in Java, or running non-browser stand-alone Java programs, you can do so with the free Linux port of the Java Development Kit (JDK). Point your browser at java.blackdown.org/java-linux/Information.html to find out where to get this. If you'd like an alternative to the Java compiler included in the JDK, there is EspressoGrinder, a drop-in replacement for the JDK compiler. EspressoGrinder is written in Java, and thus can be run anywhere that a Java runtime has been ported. You can get it at wwwipd.ira.uka.de/~espresso/. If you'd like more information on Java, the JDK, and general Java happenings, check out Sun's site at: www.javasoft.com/java.sun.com/devcorner.html. A Java FAQ is available from sunsite.unc.edu/javafaq/javafaq.html.
The political and economic significance of Java is enormous, especially for Linux developers. Because of the high degree of virtualization in the JVM, developers are free to create their applications on platforms other than those that they target. Thus, it is now possible to use your Linux system to develop Java applications that can effortlessly tap into the popularity of Windows, Macintosh, HP-UX or SGI machines, to name a few. Furthermore, Linux will undoubtedly be able to reap the benefits of applications written under other platforms for exactly the same reasons. Overall, we can expect Java to usher in a new era of software interoperability, empowering developers and users alike on all platforms.

With all the industry talk about the benefits of Linux on Power and all the performance advantages offered by its open architecture, you may be considering a move in that direction. If you are thinking about analytics, big data and cloud computing, you would be right to evaluate Power. The idea of using commodity x86 hardware and replacing it every three years is an outdated cost model. It doesn't consider the total cost of ownership, and it doesn't consider the advantage of real processing power, high-availability and multithreading like a demon.
This ebook takes a look at some of the practical applications of the Linux on Power platform and ways you might bring all the performance power of this open architecture to bear for your organization. There are no smoke and mirrors here—just hard, cold, empirical evidence provided by independent sources. I also consider some innovative ways Linux on Power will be used in the future.Get the Guide
