Both AmpFuses blowing on lower tone bass
my cousin has two 1200w 12 sub in a box in his trunk with a 1000w Diesel audio amp and stock car speakers and pioneer head unit,the system seems to work perfect except like when we put in a bass cd and when it starts to go down into the really low low bass like low on the hz scale i guess... the amp cuts off and u look to see that both 25amp fuses are blown that go into the amp,and it will do it over and over again,one think i noticed is that he is using crappy radioshack RCA cables from head unit to the amp...i figured maybe to just go by walmart and pickup the scorche RCA cables they make there for amps but i dno if that wud fix it...i think he is using 4-gauge amp wire i dno if getting like the 2-gauge is what you have to do or what...byw he has a battery capacitator and supposedly a good fuse block a JL i think,thanks for any help

2 each 1200 watt 12 inch subs and a 1000 watt amp that blows two 25 amp fuses at the same time.
Well first off thanks for all the info. It says a lot. lets see now, 2 25 amp fuses add up to a 50 amp possible power draw at 12 volts, so 50 times 12 = like 600 watts of power to your 1000 watt amplifier < I would say somebody is fibbing on you in the power department of that amp company>.
I have a 4 channel 800 watt amp and its rated at 125 amps fuse wise so Phoenix Gold must be using bigger watts or amps maybe then Diesel audio does
As for why the amp blows those fuses, well perhaps he has the amp wired to the speaker incorrectly and the amp is drawing WAY TOO much current to be safely operated at. That would explain the blown fuses on a repeated basis.
I would not worry too much as I am sure that the amp will blow if this sort of thing keeps happening.
Blown fuses are God's way of telling you your doing something really stupid with your car equipment lol lol lol
Seriously, you need to look closely at whats what on that install and realize that everything has its limits. And blown fuses are fair sign that your past your limits somewhere.
Good luck, and I would get a bigger amp and bigger wire to the amp. RCAs have little or nothing to do with your troubles your having....

k thanks for the help i guess ill try to go over everything and check wires from amp to speaker and maybe get a 2 gauge amp wire if that fails my cuz was wanting a bigger amp anyway i think he wants a 1200w JL amp or he said he might just get another 1000w amp we ben looking at the sony exploid 1000w plus its same brand and everything as his 12's, i just find it funny that it usually only does it on the low bass songs...soon as u put in a bass cd it just turns off...both 25 amp fuses blown...thanks for letting me know its not the rca's i didnt think it was since i think its just a low level signal cable...thx again

Bigger wire won't stop fuses to blow. 50A@13v at best is 650w. You say amp is rated at 1000w, but that is max power, its rms or true power (sinus, if it can hold it for any long period of time, more then just 1s) is half that, 500w. So those fuses should be ok. But if you connect speakers in a way what amp can't drive them, like instead of 2 ohme minimum you put 1 ohme on, and if amp doesn't have over current protection or that it is set too high, amp power could be exceeded. Then fuses come into play...

k so then the speaker wire needs to be a bigger gauge or just better quality or it might be wired wrong? im not sure about all the settings on the amp ill have to check if there turned up all the way maybe ill try to turn them down some then see what happens i guess,thanks for the info

None of the wires will make any diffrence, if you have lower gauge then tha would only couse amp to shut down due to undervoltage, not blow fuses . What amp do you have? Second how are speakers connected to the amp?

Im srry the subs are two 1000w sony exploid subs not 1200w will that make a difference at all having a 1000w amp and two 1000w subs,on the battery capacitator it reads like 13.5 volts....so i dont know what the problem is i noticed that it overheats while listening to hard hitting bass for a longer period of time but it just blows fuses immediately when u play the super low big rumble bass...i dont know wut the prob is...

Yeah I just repaired a Kicker 360 today the owner left the front office guys in hysterics.
Seems he blew a set of fuses so he installed bigger fuses This time he melted the solder holding the ground lug terminal to the board and it proceeded to melt the plastic end plate, and fall off the board lol lol lol Fuses are trying to tell you guys something.
In this case he was lucky it was just a bad solder joint from the factory that just got worse and worse till it melted plastic and fell apart. It could have been a BBQ in his trunk. Please be safe and fuse things properly, and if your fuses are blowing out them there is something really WRONG with your setup. weather it be the load your driving or even bad wiring or solder that hold the power terminals to the amp board.
Don't guess take the amp to be tested by someone that has a good rep for doing good business in this field

Cardinals place Jake Westbrook on disabled list
A lower back strain has landed struggling Cardinals starter Jake Westbrook on the DL.
More MLB: Scoreboard | Standings | Probable Pitchers | Sortable Stats | Odds
The St. Louis Cardinals have placed starting pitcher Jake Westbrook on the 15-day disabled list due to a lower back strain, the club announced Friday afternoon. As a corresponding move, right-handed pitcher Carlos Martinez has gotten the call from Triple-A Memphis.
The Cardinals have announced that lefty Tyler Lyons will take Westbrook's place in the rotation while Martinez is put in the bullpen.
Westbrook, 35, is 7-8 with a 4.49 ERA, 1.55 WHIP and has more walks (49) than strikeouts (43) this season. He's been awful of late, going 0-4 with a 9.69 ERA in his last five appearances.
Lyons is 2-4 with a 5.09 ERA this season.
Martinez, 21, has a 6.19 ERA in 11 games this season for the Cardinals. The highly touted prospect has a 2.66 ERA in 61 innings for Memphis this season.

For Luchetti, formerly the pastry chef at Stars in San Francisco, now at Farallon and the author of Four-Star Desserts (HarperCollins), the perfect birthday cake is a big, sexy thing that's not too dainty to dig into. She starts with plain vanilla layers so she can pile on the coconut, pecans and chopped bittersweet chocolate in the filling, then trowel thick chocolate frosting all over without losing the individual flavors.
Rose Levy Beranbaum takes a more refined approach. The author of seven cookbooks, including The Cake Bible (Morrow) and the upcoming Pie & Pastry Bible (Scribner), Beranbaum finds her ideal in a slim wedge of chocolate cake glazed with espresso ganache. She forgoes the coarse moist crumb of most American cakes in pursuit of a velvety texture, which she achieves by using generous amounts of butter. Happily, a chocolate cake is hard to bungle--even if it falls, it's still delicious. But then it's called molten chocolate cake.
Seasonality is Flo Braker's guide when she's deciding what to bake. September marks the beginning of autumn, so Braker, author of The Simple Art of Perfect Baking (Houghton Mifflin), looks to sweet spices and citrus fruits for inspiration. Her recipe combines the spiciness of honey cake with the bracing sweetness of orange curd--a perfect finale for our special occasion.

A QUESTION FOR 64-65 malibu/chevelle owners
I am building a custom truck and like the height of the rear wheel archs on the 64 and 65 chevelle , can someone who owns one do me a favor? Run a string line from the front to the back of the quarter panel at the bottom and give me the measurement up to the center of the wheel arch? It would be like if you lowered a car and measured from the ground up to see how much lower you are except your not going from the ground but measuring up from the string I HOPE THIS MAKES SENSE AND YOU CAN HELP PLEASE!!! :D
back to the top
Take the measurements right off this photo.
Right on your computer monitor, measure a "known" like the diameter of the wheel. We know it's a 14" wheel. If you take a piece of paper and put it up on your monitor marking off what the diameter of the wheel is you now have a standard to go by. You then put a piece of paper on the screen across from the front of the wheel well to the rear of the wheel well and using your standard measure the distance from the line up to the arch. I find that it is almost exactly half as far as the diameter of the wheel making that measurement you are after to be 7". Yes this is kinda crude and it may be off a bit but what does it matter if you are doing a customer mod anyway?
What looks good on your truck is what really matters. Taking this rough measurement and mocking it up somehow on your truck you can get a good idea of how it will look. Mock it up with cardboard or something, be sure that the cardboard is the same color as the truck so it doesn't give you some illusion and get it out side so you can stand back and look at it.
thank you for the help seems very logical , I am glad you took the time to help me out!!!
Your welcome, now have fun!

This is true, I was using the outside of the wheel cover on the Chevelle and it is most likely at least 15".
But still well within the boundaries of "close enough" for this purpose I am hoping. :sweat:
By the way Fozzie I am doing the exact same thing on my truck in that I am looking at making my wheel openings the same as a 53-55 or 56-57 Vette. I am not at that point where I am doing any cutting so right now while dreaming of the project I am keeping my eye out for these cars and just standing back and eye balling them thinking about it. At a recent visit to a local museum I took these photos for the project.
I hope to literally be able to take a pattern off a real car just for kicks but if I can't find someone willing to let me I will be using photos like these.
Back before photo shop I use to blow up a photo and then cut measuring carefully a known, and chop the top or section the body of the car or truck in the photo. Standing back and looking at mocked up modifications is one of the most important things you can do when customizing a car. All too often this is done in hast and the cutting and welding is done before a real good look has been done. A photo cut up on your dining table and taped or glued together is one way to mock up your cars modification and "stand back" and get a good look at it. Now this is just one dimensional and you can't walk around and get different angles of it, but it is better than nothing.
I have one of these photos on the wall of my garage that I did of my truck 15 years ago, hopefully I will be back on the truck in not too long. Right now it's just inspiration to finish the project I am on.

Smith's side slumped to a 87-run loss after being dismissed for 108 as they chased a total of 195 by the Kiwis.
"In terms of an international tournament I don't think the wicket was of a good standard," said Smith.
And Fleming, who hit 89 off 112 balls, added: "As the tournament progresses, it's going to be tough on the viewers."
Smith was unhappy with conditions at the Brabourne Stadium after seeing his side collapse under the floodlights as the pitch deteriorated.
"It's always tough to sit and moan about a wicket when you've lost but it deteriorated as the day went along," he added.
"Batting second was very, very difficult. All credit to Stephen. His knock held their innings together and without him, who knows, we might have been chasing 120-130.
"The pitch broke up, the ball turned a hell of a lot. I don't think the pitches are going to provide a 100 overs of good cricket."
Smith's decision to put New Zealand in when he won the toss came back to haunt him as his side fell apart.
"Both captains were umming and ahhing at the toss, and we took a gamble and decided to bowl," he said.
"Unfortunately it didn't come off, and all credit to New Zealand.
"There wasn't any thing hugely wrong out there, although we can tighten up a bit. We've just got to re-group."
Fleming, who was named man of the match, admitted he expected the wicket to take turn.
"We went with what we saw, which was a very dry wicket, and as it turned out it got worse," he said.
"The pitches are a bit different this time around in India. I can understand Graeme's complaints.
"But our job is to play on whatever pitches are given to us and play accordingly."
And Fleming was typically modest about his knock.
He said: "It was a bit of a grind. We weren't sure if the dew would play a part, but we knew we'd have to score around the 200-mark.
"Once we saw the ball stopping a bit off the wicket, we realised that we are in with a chance in this game
"When the ball started going through the top we knew it would be tough - but we had to keep taking wickets, and we did.
"If you take wickets at the top, it makes small targets much bigger."

"Ecology and Management of a Forested Landscape: Fifty Years on the Savannah River Site," edited by John C. Kilgo and John I. Blake (Published by Island Press, 479 pages pp. $79.95)
The Savannah River Site is a 310-square mile tract of land in South Carolina acquired by the federal government in 1950 for secret work on nuclear weapons. All the people living in the towns and the countryside inside this tract were relocated. The homes were torn down. The farmlands were planted in trees. The swamps bordering the Savannah River were allowed to flourish virtually untouched by man.
Now, more than 50 years later, the circular tract of land shows up on a satellite map as a dark green spot amid the quilted patterns of developed landscapes.
For decades, scientists have been studying the animal and plant life that flourishes there. One man who studies the animals is John Kilgo, a native of Athens who is a research wildlife biologist with the U.S. Forest Service Southern Research Station based on the Savannah River Site. For instance, just this summer, he said a study was initiated on the red-headed woodpecker.
Kilgo, along with John Blake, an assistant manager for research with the forest service, has edited a book that for the first time compiles up-to-date studies on this unique site.
"Ecology and Management of a Forested Landscape: Fifty years on the Savannah River Site" was made available this year from Island Press in Washington D.C. Seventeen writers contributed to the book, including scientists such as Whit Gibbons, a professor of ecology with the University of Georgia who is widely known for his expertise in snakes.
"I think the value of the book is not restricted to what it says about the site per se, but a lot of the information would be applicable around the region," said Kilgo, adding people from bird watchers to naturalists would find the book informative.
"The idea was to bring that vast body of information together under one cover and present it in a manner that would make it a useful reference tool to research professionals, but also be of interest to lay people in the general public and people curious about what has happened to this 300-square mile tract of land over the past 50 years," he said.
In 1972, the Department of Energy designated the site as the first National Environmental Research Park.
Kilgo, who has worked at there since the mid-'90s, said the areas of the site he enjoys visiting are the swamps.
And that stems from his youth. He said he knew as a young man he wanted to enter this profession.
Kilgo is the son of Jane and James Kilgo, the latter who died in 2002 after a career as an English professor at the University of Georgia. James Kilgo was known outside academic circles as a novelist and essayist. The elder Kilgo's first book, "Deep Enough for Ivory Bills," was a collection of essays that parlayed to the public his love for the outdoors that goes back to his youth in rural Darlington, S.C.
"He took me hunting, bird watching, camping at an early age," Kilgo said about his father, who had friends who were wildlife biologists and ornithologists, an association that influenced the young man's career path. After graduating from Clarke Central High in 1985, Kilgo obtained a degree in biology from Wofford College, followed by a master's in wildlife ecology at the University of Florida. He came home to UGA to earn his doctorate in wildlife biology.
Married to the former Suzi Mason of Athens, Kilgo has two sisters, Sarah Jane Joyce and Ann Meschiari.
He was working on a post doctorate when the job came open with the Forest Service at the SRS.
Many scientists are impressed on their first visit to the SRS with the size of the site, Kilgo said. Although there are industrial plants that employ thousands of people, most of the land is off-limits. Except for planned tours and researchers, the public is not allowed into the site. (The site does host annual deer and wild hog hunts designed to downsize the population of these animals.)
Kilgo said reforestation of the land began soon after it was acquired for use by the Atomic Energy Commission. A large portion of the forests in the bottom lands and swamps were still in good condition in 1951 and served as a refuge for a lot of animals. But as the forest matured over the rest of the site, the animals began to flourish in those areas as well.
"Now it's a forested island," Kilgo said.
There is a significant amount of land management occurring, but much of that is directed at improving habitat conditions for wildlife, he said.
The rare and endangered red-cockaded woodpecker lives on the site.
"They are the single biggest driver of land activities out here, and by that I mean the timber harvesting and burning and that kind of thing that manipulates the forest. The creation of habitat conditions for the woodpecker is what affects everything else on this site," he said.
The site is the home to such wildlife as alligators, bald eagles, coyotes and bobcats and there have even been reliable sightings of bears.
"The diversity (of animals) is exceptionally high compared to the surrounding landscape and this is one thing the book conveys to the public," he said. "Many people are not familiar with the value of this area as a natural area."
Now with this book on the market, Kilgo said people can see just what is transpiring on this unique site.

Various Types of Banner Stands for Advertising and Promotional Activities
1 Recommendation
reynaldoshep820's recommendation
Banners are the most common display that most people use for their brand circulation. Over the last decade of time some businesses have also started digital banner promotion on internet. Banners are available in different size and composition with variation of display area to show your brand or impression on that. You can choose any kind of display as per your needs and requirement or representing your company visually. The most important thing that you have to consider while buying will be your promotion strategy and which places you are going o utilize it. If your campaign require travelling to different places then roll up banners suit you best because of their light weight and portability which delivers quick setup. The same way for those who have high budget then it is possible to choose large pop in place displays to represent your products or services. Let's not discuss considerably about its application or purpose lets discuss about the type of banner stands and its difference.

Reviews for Stoney's Famous Rhubarb Crisp
"Very good. I used six cups of rhubarb and added a cup of oats to the topping. Great flavor. Best I have made."
"quick, easy, and absolutely delicious! The best thing is all the ingredients are ones I always have on hand! So many recipes I can't make until I've made a trip to town. The first time I made it I did just as the recipe says. Very good, but the rhubarb cooks down and it is very thin. The second time I doubled all ingredients except sugar. Turned out just as delicious as the first time but was way thicker. I will be making this recipe whenever I want rhubarb! Very yummy with vanilla ice cream!"
"This has been our family favourite since it was published in Taste of Home 1994."
"I've been making this since it first appeared as a restaurant recipe request. I also think it better suited to a 7 x11 pan than 9 x13. It is good out of the pan but also looks fancy layered with whipped topping in a sundae glass."
"Harvested a TON of rhubarb and wanted something easy. Ran across this online recipe ..threw it together z(doubled it and added oatmeal to the topping) and it got RAVES!! Will make it again for our big family gathering"
"This was delicious! But better suited for an 11x7 baking dish, not a 13x9 one.~ Theresa"
"Very simple to make and delicious. But there is no way that this recipe will serve 10-12 people, especially if served in a sundae dish. I would guess that you could get 6-8 servings from recipe."
"I think they first put this in TOH in June/July '94 issue. We had rhubarb growing in the back yard, and tried it and loved it -- a family favorite. Last weekend, my newly married daughter called me on the phone and said "Can you give me that recipe for the rhubarb crisp?" I had to recalculate it for a smaller number, but she said it came out just great!"
"Now that it is rhubarb season in Minnesota, I couldn't find my "go to" rhubarb crisp recipe. I found this recipe and it will become the "go to" rhubarb crisp. Excellent!!"

I love this attorney, and here is why: 2 years after retaining a highly recommended Divorce attorney, I found myself SEVERAL thousand dollars poorer and no closer to a settlement or a divorce. I was completely deflated, in debt, trusting of no one, and confused. I reluctantly went to see Ms. Shelby Outlaw. She listened patiently to my story, reassured me that I was right in the way I felt, and took it upon herself to take my case and get it settled as fast as she could. This woman went to work. She was my advocate, studied my case, knew the details in minute detail, and got my resolution in a matter of WEEKS, not months or years. She cared about me, and my well being, and I felt confident going into mediation knowing that she would make sure that I would get the best possible outcome. It does not stop there. After the settlement, I did not go onto the back burner. She answered all of my silly phone calls, emails, and answered all of my questions. She personally guided me through the process. If you are so wise as to retain Miss Shelby and her firm, please know up front, this woman knows what she is doing. Trust what she says, she is shrewd and will get you the best possible outcome. I am sure that this review does not adequately describe how great this firm is. I told her at the end of my case that I was thankful for my ex attorney, because if I had not gone through those 2 years of complete Hell, I would never have been able to completely appreciate what a hard working advocate she really was.

Speaking of wipers, I live in a snowy clime, and I was told by a mechanic, that putting wipers, not necessarily BMW wipers, in the folded out, vertical position for extended lengths of time (like a week at the airport) is a bad thing to do because it results in stretched wiper springs. Now I've never done this in my new F30, so I have no idea if this car even has wiper springs, or if the fold out technique referenced simply puts the wipers high up on the windshield as opposed to in the park position to avoid freezing down there.
Can anyone speak to these issues? Does this car have wiper springs, and could they be stretched if extended for extended periods of time?

American Skippet
Skippets are boxes, usually of silver or gold, used to protect the official wax seals on important official documents. Skippets were used by the United States only on major nineteenth-century international treaties and most skippets by American silversmiths survive in foreign archives. The design of the seal itself is usually reproduced on the top of the skippet, and the base and cover are generally pierced to accommodate the cords that attach the wax seal to documents.
The majority of American skippets are unmarked, but several District of Columbia silversmiths are known to have made them as special commissions for the government. For example, Charles A. Burnett (1760-1849) made the silver skippet for the Treaty of Ghent in 1815. Jacob Leonard (who worked about 1810 to 1825) was paid for four silver-gilt skippets in 1819. Seraphim Masi made four skippets in 1824, one in 1825, and several others over the course of his career, including several gold skippets for Commodore Perry's expedition to China in 1852. Samuel Lewis (working ca. 1850–ca.1870) made skippets until 1870, after which the practice of using these protective but expensive boxes was discontinued.[l]
This unmarked skippet is a fine example of a rarely seen form that is unique to the purpose and mission of the Department of State. Inscribed in a banner in block letters, "E PLURIBUS UNUM," it is nearly identical to the silver-gilt, unmarked skippet attached to the Convention of Adjustment of Claims with Mexico, which was ratified February 8, 1829, and to a silver skippet attached to the Convention of Transit Way across the Isthmus of Tehuantepec with Mexico, signed in 1851.[2] The seal design was cast as a rather heavy plaque and is backed by a thin disk of plain silver to form the top of the cover of the shallow, drum-shaped box. The background of the plaque has been scraped and the raised design very carefully refined with chasing. The box itself is simply made of sheet silver. This skippet appears to date from the period when Seraphim Masi is known to have been supplying such items to the federal government.

Intern Tyler Writes About The Fort Collins E-Cigarette Ban
Once again, Fort Collins is cracking down on cigarette use: City Council approved an expansion to the city's smoking ordinance on Tuesday, July 15.
According to the Coloradoan, the amendment includes a ban on electronic cigarette usage in non-smoking areas, as well as a complete ban on smoking in hotel rooms. The ordinance was unanimously approved by the board after being passed on first reading in a 6-1 vote. It will be in effect at the beginning of 2015.
RECOMMENDED: Should the Smoking Age Be Raised to 21?
Some locals are unhappy with the new ban on electronic cigarettes, arguing that they are a great way to eliminate the danger of smoking.
What is an "electronic cigarette?"
Electronic cigarettes (e-cigarettes) are a new alternative to traditional cigarettes, and they are supposedly healthier. While they still contain addictive nicotine, they lack the cancer-causing agents present in regular cigarettes, like tar or carbon monoxide.
E-cigarettes contain a cartridge of liquid solution with nicotine and other non-harmful chemicals. When in use, an "atomizer" turns this solution into vapor, which users breathe in. The vapor feels like regular smoke, but it's much safer according to e-cig manufacturers. The atomizer runs on electricity, and it is powered by a lithium battery that must be charged by the user.
Even though e-cigarettes are a multi-billion-dollar industry, the risk surrounding them is still unclear. A report by Public Health England showed that data surrounding the safety of e-cigs vs. regular cigs was inconclusive, even though there is some evidence that e-cigs are safer. Still, consumers have faith in the new technology's potential, including members of the Fort Collins community.
Switching to eCigarrettes is almost the same as an alcoholic switching from hard liquor to wine.
E-cigarettes are a better option than other forms of smoking, in my opinion, given that they're likely safer for the population as well as healthier for the atmosphere. Plus, they may be saving lives by stopping smokers from inhaling poisonous products. E-cigarettes are not necessarily healthy, but they are definitely healthier than other addictions. I would rather they not be banned, at least for now, based on what they provide for smokers in need of an alternative to tobacco.
All I can say is, I'm extremely glad I don't have this problem.

California Residents
Your packing list will contain the following statement:
Prop 65 Warning: The following products may contain a chemical(s) known to the state of California to cause cancer, birth defects and other reproductive harm.
Here is the explanation for it:
Proposition 65 in California requires that certain businesses provide California residents with warnings when products contain chemicals known to the state of California to cause cancer, birth defects and other reproductive harm above certain levels.
Funtober is currently not required by law to include the notice as the law only applies to businesses with more than ten employees. Your costumes are purchased from major manufacturers and/or suppliers who we have every reason to believe comply fully with federal law in this area. However, we do care about your safety. We want to encourage California residents (and anyone else) to seek additional information from the costume manufacturer if you have concerns about the safety of your particular costume.
Items that we sell that would generate a Proposition 65 warning from a company with more employees when sold online or in person include: anything with vinyl, leather, zippers, certain color dyes, cosmetics, jewelry and electrical wiring.
You probably encounter this warning on a daily basis. Starbucks posts Proposition 65 notices in its California stores that their coffee and baked goods may cause cancer (according to this article in the Ecommerce Times). I expect major retailers also post Proposition 65 warning in their stores, due to lawsuits over handbags, cosmetics, and clothing zippers. The list of chemicals included is extensive.
Product safety organizations in California buy products from businesses and sue if they have not fully complied with the law. Defending against a Proposition 65 lawsuit is expensive. We cannot possibly test every item that we sell for compliance with the law. As we do not manufacture the costumes, we can't ensure that the manufacturing process complies with California's standards (much stricter than federal law). I also can't afford to be sued for failure to include a 25 word warning.
The law provides an extensive safe harbor for businesses that warn California consumers. So we warn you. We have no specific information that your costume is unsafe. However, due to the extensive list of chemicals on the California list, and the existence of zippers and vinyl on costumes and accessories, you should contact the manufacturer for information if you are concerned.
We are sorry that we had to be the bearer of this information. If you did not see this notice, and would like to return your costume due to the warning, I would be happy to take it back and refund your money in full.
If you would like to read more about the law, please visit:
The California Office of Environmental Health Hazard Assessment

The tragedy of Zimbabwe gets worse with each passing day. The United Nations World Food Program is warning unless something is done to get the nation back in some semblance of rationality, nearly five million people will face the prospect of starvation in the coming months. The megalomaniac President Mugabe earlier this year banned all foreign aid which delayed initiating programs to feed starving people. His decision to drive out of the country white farmers and give their farms to his cronies rather than to experienced black farmers transformed a productive farm economy into a basket case of incompetence.
Officials of the Southern African Development Community(SADC) asked former South African president Mbeki to mediate the impasse between Mugabe and the Movement for Democratic Change which won the presidential election only to have it stolen by the president. Mbeki has been unable to persuade his old friend, Mugabe, to enter into a genuine power-sharing arrangement. The government is paralyzed and no foreign nations will supply aid to Zimbabwe until power is shared. Cry for the beloved country of Zimbabwe.

Four Employees "Locked Out" of Alachua County Jail
Published June 23rd, 2011
Loading Video...
Four employees in four months are now suspended from their jobs at the Alachua County Jail. Most recently, Interim Jail Director captain Norman Adkins.
The absence of four leaders at an already understaffed jail is taxing for those who remain.
None of the details of the investigations into the four suspended employees, or if they are related, have been released.

Cue the air drummer. Bring in the air guitar. Now you're ready to crank up the volume on The Not-Its! newest album, "Tag, You're It!"
If you are new to Seattle's The Not-Its! you are sure to notice that they are a bit edgier than other kindie bands. Grungier perhaps. Definitely heavy on the drum set (in a good way). My kids always ask me to turn it up so they can "rock out." If you cringe at high-pitched and childish kids' music, then this is the album for you! Not a "Twinkle, Twinkle" or "Old MacDonald's Farm" in the bunch.
You'll start with the high-energy "Freeze Tag" and "Vacation" -- both winners. "Hank is a Rock Star," "Great to Be a Kid" and "Hot Sand" will get everyone moving and inspired. Sarah Shannon's stunning vocals and outgoing, head-bobbing rock melodies make this a solid album and a great addition to your growing collection.
Learn more about The Not-Its! at their website.
When to listen: In the car on the way to swimming lessons or soccer practice

I always wondered why folks got wrapped around the axle with the "one shot stop" concept. If I ever get in a bind, target will get two rounds, at minimum. Funny how things swing. The much maligned 9mm is making an impressive comeback.
Many thanks for your post. It further validates a few theories I subscribe to: 9mm is certainly enough, and one round fired certainly isn't.

By Chris Harris
Arsène Wenger is bewildered by reports of Manchester City's £100million bid for Kaka - because in financial terms the Arsenal manager inhabits the 'real world'.
The possibility of AC Milan's Brazilian star moving to the Premier League for a world-record fee dominated the sports pages this week.
Wenger has money of his own to spend during the transfer window but admitted that he found it hard to comprehend the prospect of a nine-figure transfer deal in a world beset by economic problems.
"First of all I don't know if it's true," he said. "We have not seen it and that is the difference. We have seen it in the papers but that doesn't mean these numbers are true.
"It doesn't look real to me at all. It is like an abstraction. If you say to me 'I am a billionaire', I say 'OK but I don't know what it really means'. It [the offer for Kaka] doesn't look in connection with today's world because on one side we have the economic situation which is quite worrying and for me this is abstraction.
"I don't feel in connection with that at all because we live in a football club which lives in the real world. That means we spend the money we make from our income.
"The implications [of a £100million transfer] would be disturbance on the market. Inflationary trend in a deflationary world.
"But it leaves Arsenal where we are now. That means we spend the money we produce and we make. We are in a world where we live from three kinds of income – gate receipts, the sponsors and the television money. That is the real world of football.
"The rest is exceptional and is not the rule of our world. It is a special income with unlimited resources, but it's not the real world.
"Whether it is us, Sunderland or Coventry we live with the same rules. Manchester City are in a different world because they do not live with their income."Copyright 2017 The Arsenal Football Club plc.

Plus he was close friends with Calvin Coolidge.There is absolutely no better selection for the job than John Hanlon. He has the experience, ability, and knowledge, Try keeping up with him. He's involved in the community in so many ways still today, than ever before. it's mind boggling. When it comes down to it. John will put the people of Everett and Malden first in every single part of him being Rep for Everett, he's done it before and will continue to do so. It's that simple.

Disgusting campaign? Please elaborate because I think you have him mixed up with DeMaria. Carlo was the one who had his minions hasseling Peter's workers (including his sons) in the square. Now THAT'S disgusting!
#23 Dec 30, 2012
Yea I don't believe Peter ran a disgusting campaign - it was the other way around !
#24 Dec 31, 2012
Peter ran a clean campaign. Carlo used pressure on staff and was rude to Peter's family and workers. His people had absentee ballots for people in their cars and hand delivered them to people and then "helped them fill them out." Peter ran a campaign on a limited budget. Carlo knew the unsigned letters were not being sent by Peter but let people believe Peter did them to his advantage. Hopefully the Feds are looking into him and his team. This city needs to be rid of him.
#25 Dec 31, 2012
mike mangan is the best choice and if think hes in carlos pocket who cares
#26 Dec 31, 2012
How about Joe King or Kay Hicks???? I'd vote for them.
#27 Dec 31, 2012
As far as John Hanlon being the best person for the job, that couldn't be further than the truth. He's probably the worst person for the job. What makes him qualified to be a state rep. And don't tell me that he's a former mayor, because it took him three tries to become mayor, and the whole school dept and all of the elected officials to get him elected. His win was only a matter of timing. Ragucci was mayor for 8 years and let's face it, you don't get more votes every year, you lose them when your mayor. Everybody always has the hand out looking for something, a job, a favor, etc. And once you say no they don't vote for you anymore. So he was lucky to be mayor. Don't tell me he was the city clerk for 30 years because that still soesn't make him qualified. Being a lame duck 30 year APPOINTED city slerk soesn't mean you are qualified. So WHY IS HE QUALIFIED ? He's not but I will say all the people that are running, none of them are qualified either. We need a middle aged 35-55 man, college educated professional or self employed person that knows what the people of this area need. We do not need another popularity contest to elect someone that doesn't have a clue. We already have that with the Everett City Council. Let's face it, of the 25 members that are elected in Everett, if they had to run in other affluent towns, they would get laughed at by the voters and probably wouldn't make it out of the primary. Stop electing people in Everett becaue of their name recognition and start electing people that know how to do the job.
#28 Dec 31, 2012
As usual Frank is off the wall. He can't get over Hanlon beating Ragucci.
#29 Dec 31, 2012
FRANK: Why do we have to have a MALE run for state rep ??? You stated: We need a middle aged 35 - 55 man ......... Time for a woman to be elected ......
#30 Dec 31, 2012
I agree. Let's give a woman a chance to try to do something for this city. Right now, we have a male running it that has no respect for women and treats them badly. There must be a women we can convince to run and throw our support behind her.

Wayne pulled papers this afternoon the minute they arrived to city hall from the Secratary of State's Office. So I don't know where you get your "facts". Oh and the primary is March 5th. So who do you the short campaign benefits??? Get it through your heads. Wayne is going to be our next State Rep. It doesn't matter who runs against him. Wayne is a good man and would do anything for anyone. God bless him.

Mangan is running.
#37 Jan 3, 2013
Why does being a good man make him a good choice to represent our city at the state house?

when the FBI is done hearing all Stat has to say about everett officials and corruption Wayne won't be left unscathed
nor will the city clerk, mayor and quite possibly poor Senator Sal as the absentee vote in his election was glaringly fraudulent and required the coordination of several people in the absentee effort
#41 Jan 3, 2013
Tough crowd, tough crowd....
#43 Jan 3, 2013
was told those who pulled papers are Cornelio, Hanlon, Matewsky, Mangan, Santagate, LaMonica, Sarnie and hearing Macgonagle will run to instead of Marchese. Some kind of deal between the two.

Carol Cooper, Senior Curatorial Fellow, Research Centre
I joined the National Museum of Australia as Head Registrar in 1998, riding the crest of the relocation and installation wave for the development of the new Museum at Acton. Previously my career ranged within Canberra cultural institutions from working as a curator, to audiovisual archivist and executive level manager.
As Head Registrar, I focused on the physical control, storage, documentation and movement of the National Historical Collection, the Museum archives and the photographic section.
In 2009, I joined the Centre for Historical Research, and in July 2010 became Head Curator, Collections Development Unit. This position involved policy development, supervising collection consultancies, and overseeing the Legacy Collections Project and the redevelopment of the Museum Hall. In 2013, following the Museum's restructure, I became a Senior Curatorial Fellow in the Research Centre.
Current projects
My current projects at the Research Centre are:
- The Bothwell Museum – revisited and rejuvenated
- Designs in wood: reconnecting to country
- Horses in Australia exhibition research

Just roll to your rifle and blow out your brains,
And go to your God like a soldier.

Ricebowlproject: Crowdsourcing On A Micro Level
A new crowdfunding platform aims to help inspire change among local and international communities through community-based initiatives.
Ricebowlproject is a new crowdsourcing platform for social entrepreneurs concentrating on cause-based initiatives that aims to create ripples of change among local, national, and even international communities. Driven by the idea that no contribution is too small or insignificant to inspire positive change, Ricebowlproject encourages collective action among its viewers through either starting an idea for a project, or funding it altogether. From Ricebowlproject:
A single grain of rice may seem insignificant. But take thousands of those single grains and now you're feeding a village. That's the idea behind the Ricebowlproject. No action, no contribution is ever insignificant. Because when you take the efforts of one and multiply them by a family or a club or a community, the results can be wonderfully grand.

The best part of any good thriller occurs when the protagonist finds herself trapped with the villain in a seemingly inescapable situation. In the quiet of the moment, before the inevitable series of gun fights or car chases, we're left rooting for our hero(ine)—James Bond or Jason Bourne or Lisbeth Salander—to survive through sheer wit.
The leviathan of such tales is One Thousand and One Arabian Nights, a compilation written over centuries and, finally, compiled in 225 BCE. It has since been translated into several languages, made into Disney films and rehashed on the screen and stage.
UM's School of Theatre and Dance offers a production of Mary Zimmerman's version, The Arabian Nights. In this story, the king, Shahryar, made cynical by his former wife's adultery, turns mad: He weds one woman each night only to slit her throat by morning. That is, until he marries Scheherezade. The clever girl tells the king stories, and stories within stories, creating a string of fairy tales, legends, farces and parables with cliffhanger endings that keep the king enthralled and her life spared.
The UM production, directed by Randy Bolton, is fantastic from the start. When the play begins, 15 people enter the circular arena of the Masquer Theatre, playing instruments and humming in a controlled chaos that's harmonic and, despite the small space and small cast, reflective of a bustling Baghdad market. As the story develops, you're allowed to lose yourself in a swiftly paced, romantic world populated by kings and paupers who, in the oldest of soap-opera twists, are confronted by ill and good fortune.
All 1,001 tales can't be told in one sitting, of course. Zimmerman handpicked a handful that seem to speak to issues of women and war. Sound like a drag? It's not. The stories are mostly amusing diversions peppered with hidden philosophical questions. There's the titillating story of a woman who's cheating on her husband with her butcher, her green grocer and a clarinetist, all of whom accidentally show up at her home the same evening, each with their phallic props—zucchini, rolling pins and such. (This play is not for children or the prudish). Then there's the man who tries to marry a beautiful woman, only to be tricked into marrying a gasping, snarling, snorting monster. There's also Sympathy, the all-knowing woman who challenges learned men to a battle of the wits involving everything from the Koran to enlightenment.
Alessia Carpoca's costumes and Michael Monsos' set add sensuous layers. Women wrapped in brightly colored silk scarves engage with men in feathered turbans and billowing pants. Metal lamps glowing in jade, red, aqua and burnt orange hang from the ceiling above Persian rugs, woven baskets and luxurious pillows and sofas. In the intimate Masquer, the lush decor, live music and constant motion make this a rich experience.
Actors play a multitude of characters, and they also help tell the story in the way Greek myths are told through a chorus. Kate Robischon as the witty Sympathy is fun to watch as she briskly takes down some sputtering hubris-filled men. Leah Joki, who earned her first college degree in 1980, nails the role of the coy Perfect Woman—one that is usually typecast for a younger girl. ("I may be the only person to have played this role that is also a member of AARP," Joki notes in the playbill.) Patrick Yoder is especially commanding and delightful as an exuberant king who allows his wife-to-be to return to her true love. Colton Swibold has perfect timing for perhaps the oldest fart joke ever told.
Rebecca Schaffer as Scheherezade and G. Stephen Hodgson as Shahryar are two constants who keep the production clicking. Hodgson, who stole scenes as the Russian dance teacher in last year's You Can't Take It With You, delivers
here with a balance of intimidating and sympathetic. He easily reverts to the latter, a child under the spell of a good story and who is made a better king for it. Schaffer, small in frame next to Hodgson, dominates the stage when she's zestfully conjuring each new story. She plays her character with a bewitching mischievousness that just barely masks the trauma of a woman on the verge of death night after night. Like a thriller's protagonist, she's doing anything to survive. But unlike Bond or Bourne, she portrays Scheherezade as a storytelling wizard who means to convert her aggressor, not destroy him.
The end may or may not be what you expect. Zimmerman's added one more twist in her version. I won't give it away, but I will say this: It's controversial. Some people will find it a heavy-handed gesture that overshadows everything else, but I think it's appropriate to add one more modern story to wrap up this web of ancient tales. After all, Shahryar's knife comes in many forms.
The Arabian Nights continues at the Masquer Theatre Thu., Oct. 11 through Sat., Oct. 13, at 7:30 PM nightly. $16/$14 seniors and students.

Since taking office in January 2007, Secretary-General Dr Hamadoun Touré has set an ambitious new agenda for the ITU designed to help lead the way towards a more equitable and responsible ICT-based economy. A native of Mali whose long career in ICT spans senior private and public sector roles on three continents, Dr Touré seeks to get to grips with the changing realities of a brand new socio-economic paradigm.
Q: Let's start with ITU's Global Cybersecurity Agenda. Why did ITU feel the need to launch this, and what does it hope to achieve?
A: ITU recognized an urgent need to raise awareness about the very real threat already posed by cybercrime, and to build global consensus on practical ways forward in combating this scourge.
Cyberspace has no borders, no constraining frontiers. The global nature of today's threats means no country can regard itself as an island. This is therefore a truly international problem demanding action on an international level. ITU boasts a long and successful history of forging consensus on the way the world manages globally shared ICT resources - such as satellite orbits and radiofrequency spectrum. Now we're leveraging that track record to help build an international set of principles and best practice that countries around the world can follow, so that efforts to stamp out cybercrime have maximum impact and effectiveness.
The GCA's role is to link existing initiatives and provide a framework for consensus. We've already got lots of key organizations sharing ideas - INTERPOL with the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime, for example. Working together significantly increases our chances of success. And by involving global experts in the process from the beginning, we'll help make sure that the solutions decided upon get implemented properly.
Q: Where are we in terms of progress on the Agenda?
A: To ensure all countries and stakeholders had the chance to voice their views and concerns, ITU convened a High-Level Experts Group comprising a broad spectrum of representatives from government, international and regional organizations, private industry and academia. This global multi-stakeholder think-tank was tasked with preparing a strategic report and a set of recommendations on how to best achieve the seven strategic goals of the GCA, which span legislation, hardware and software authentication, digital identity certification, and international frameworks for proactive cooperation, as well as early warning on cyber threats.
The HLEG met on 26 June 2008 to submit its recommendations, and I'll be presenting these to ITU Council in November this year. So just over one year since launch, we're moving from talk to action. In the past three months alone we've seen a number of exciting developments, including new collaboration with IMPACT, the global initiative launched by Malaysian Prime Minister, which has offered to serve as one of the GCA physical homes; launch of the GCA Strategic Partnership Program to forge alliances with key stakeholders; mounting interest from leading ICT firms; and a second Patron from Africa - the President of Burkina Faso.
We still have a lot of complex work ahead of us, but with ITU's proven ability to broker effective, workable international agreements on a whole range of contentious issues - from emergency communications to third-generation mobile telephony - I'm quite confident we'll get there.
Q: Child protection has emerged as one of the most urgent cybersecurity priorities. What's ITU position here?
A: There's no doubt this needs to be one of the very first issues addressed. Todays children are increasingly vulnerable - yet their parents, teachers, guardians and even governments are often unaware of the dangers.
We all tell our children to be careful out on the street. What many people havent realized is that, equipped with a computer, a childs bedroom can suddenly become a very dangerous neighbourhood - and that their children are walking through that neighbourhood in the dark, alone. So the first step is to raise awareness at a parental, educational and social level. We need to urgently integrate cyber protection into our community education programmes, and into our school curricula.
At the same time, we need to work towards a harmonized international framework against child pornography and cybercriminals who target and prey on children. Without this framework, some countries will become unwilling hubs for illegal activities of the most undesirable kind - something no nation would want. Much good work has already been done by various agencies and organizations around the world. Through ITU, we can bring key stakeholders together to leverage the progress made so far and develop an internationally effective strategy to eradicate these activities.
To that end, weve just announced the creation of a multi-stakeholder coalition under the GCA framework to undertake concrete actions for the protection of children online. The Child Online Protection (COP) will be launched later this year, and will actively work with partners from industry, governments, international organizations and others to develop concrete actions for protecting children in cyber space.
I believe ITU, which is committed to connecting the world, also has a responsibility to help ensure that these connections are safe. At the same time, its vital that our initiatives do nothing to stifle or smother the enormous benefits the Internet can bring young people, both as a traditional educational resource and as a tool for peer to peer networking and learning.
Q: You talk of ÂConnecting the World - and you held the highly successful ÂConnect Africa event in Rwanda last year. Can we expect to see more ÂConnect events - and which regions would be targeted next?
A: We held the first Connect event in Africa because, as home to 36 of the 49 UN-designated Least Developed Countries, the African continent is still the most urgently in need. The unprecedented interest this event generated, including over US$ 55 billion in project commitments, is clear proof that the industry is now aggressively looking to developing markets for new opportunities. The next Connect event - Connect CIS - is already on the agenda, and will be held in Belarus in 2009. Were confident that it will match the success of our first event, as participants take advantage of enormous untapped demand in fast-emerging markets across this exciting region.
Well be following that up with other Connect events for key world regions - Connect Americas, and Connect Asia - with a special focus as well on the small island states of the Pacific.
Q: How do ITU Connect events differ from the many other ICT trade shows and conferences targeting regional markets?
A: ICTs are the engine driving every other economic sector. And over the past five years, two thirds of all new jobs created have been in the ICT sector. In defining our Connect events, our motto has been Âwealth creation, not poverty alleviation. Unlike many events, were not focusing on the latest gizmos, but rather on ICT development through partnership - particularly constructive partnership between governments and the private sector. Regionally-focused events are very useful, because they can address common problems in areas like licensing, regulation and infrastructure sharing. In deciding the venue for future regional Connect events, well be looking for strong commitments from host governments to forging local ICT markets that favour business opportunity and promote good, competitively-priced services.
Q: In addition to Connect CIS, theres another important event on the ITU horizon next year - the fourth World Telecommunication Policy Forum in Lisbon. What will this event focus on?
A: With so much happening across the industry, weve chosen the broad theme of ÂConvergence to encompass a range of paradigm shifts. The event will look at new network technologies - for example, the standardization work now underway within ITU on Next Generation Networks and IMT-Advanced mobile technology. But well also be looking at other important global issues, such as ICTs and climate change.
Q: Climate change is a relatively new item on ITUs work plan
A: Yes, but in fact weve already been very active here for a number of years, through the development of technologies for environmental monitoring, through early warning systems to help communities mitigate the effects of the growing number of natural disasters provoked by global warming, and through technologies designed to minimize human impact on our environment.
I believe we can go much, much further, by helping industries across all sectors reduce their carbon footprint. Sure, as products that consume energy - through both their manufacture and their use - ICTs are part of the problem, accounting for around three per cent of global CO2 emissions. But they can also be a huge part of the solution - for example, by reducing the need for paper, by automatically switching both themselves and other electrical appliances to Âsleep mode to cut energy consumption, by reducing the need for travel, and by more efficiently managing energy needs in our homes or in our cars.
Following two international Symposia on ICTs and Climate Change held earlier this year, the important role of ICTs in mitigating climate change was addressed at the G8 meeting in Lake Toya in July. ITU will continue to proactively work towards even better technological solutions to reducing our carbon footprint, through standardization efforts in areas like NGN, where new technologies can dramatically reduce the power consumption of network infrastructure, and through special areas of focus like the Networked Home and the Networked Car. Were also stepping up our work in the area of emergency communications, to help communities deal with the often catastrophic effects of a shift in climate patterns.
Q: ITU took the lead back in 1998 in brokering the Tampere Convention on the cross-border use of mobile communications for humanitarian relief. What other activities are you involved in?
A: The Tampere Convention was a major landmark in emergency response, and has now been ratified by 36 nations. This is a priority area for us, and were partnering with a wide range of public and private sector organizations across a range of different areas.
Following the Asian tsunami in 2004, weve been working with the Australian government and others on developing early-warning technology for maritime disasters. The most recent World Radiocommunication Conference here in Geneva last year approved new key spectrum allocations for environmental monitoring and disaster mitigation.
And were active on the ground, providing communications equipment for disaster relief, and technical expertise to help authorities get backbone links up again quickly after a disaster.
During the course of 2008 alone, weve deployed 100 satellite terminals for emergency relief in Myanmar - we were one of the very few agencies authorized to enter - and in Sichuan, China, following the earthquake there. We also have excellent partnerships with most of the major satellite service providers, such as ICO and Inmarsat, with equipment vendors like Thuraya, and with specialist relief organizations like Télécoms Sans Frontières.
More, however, still needs to be done. Thats why we developed a new international framework that was put in place in December 2007. This framework focuses on putting in place national and international disaster prevention and response agreements that can serve as the basis of relief efforts in the event of a catastrophe. When disaster strikes, no-one should be wasting time brokering deals. And no-one should be arguing as to who might get credit for the rescue and clean-up. All our efforts must be directed to helping the victims - as efficiently and as quickly as possible.
Q: What can we expect to see at the industrys flagship trade show, ITU Telecom Asia 2008 in Thailand in September?
A: With Asia now leading the world in technological innovation, there are always plenty of surprises! Im sure well see much to excite us on the show floor from major global players and rising Asian stars. As to the Forum programme, we can expect plenty of healthy debate. The new, more interactive format we piloted at our Cairo event in May was very well received, so well be reinforcing that model in Bangkok. I believe Âfrom friction comes light - so well be aiming to provoke a few clashes of opinion from industry leadersÂ
Asia is a fascinating region because it encompasses both ends of the ICT development spectrum. Its home to the most wired, most technophile communities in the world. And its also home to LDCs and marginalized island states. That makes it a great test bed for new ideas, new technologies - and exciting new applications.
Q: The theme for this years ITU Telecom event is New Generation, New Values. What does this mean, in practice?
A: We chose this theme because, quite simply, no region of the world embraces ICTs like Asia. Entire generations now define themselves through technology. Thats a huge force for innovation, as manufacturers and service providers alike clamber to make the most of the opportunities by devising compelling new products and services designed to capture the consumer imagination - and wallet. In other countries, technology tends to be applied as a tool, to meet user needs. In Asia, its already very much a lifestyle.
Q: So Asias really shaping todays market developments, setting the tone and pace of trends?
A: Theres no doubt that this is true in areas like mobile and broadband. Asia spans some of the most sophisticated markets with the highest levels of ICT penetration and growth in the world. China and India are the worlds largest and fastest growing markets, with mobile subscribers alone totalling over 600 million and 280 million respectively by mid-2008. The Republic of Korea leads the world with close to 80% of households connected to broadband. Both Singapore and Hong Kong, China are not far behind, with 70%. Thats why ITU Telecom Asia has always served as a bellwether for the industry - it not only opens doors to some of the biggest opportunities for exhibitors, but provides a crucial snapshot of where the industrys heading in terms of technologies, applications and new business models.
Thats particularly important in Asia, which remains a region of stark contrasts. While some countries now boast excess broadband capacity, others - particularly geographically isolated nations like Small Island States - are still struggling to get their populations connected. New technologies will help. The next Connect Asia Summit that ITU is organizing with other partners will be a key milestone in setting the strategies at regional level. Discussions during Asia 2008 with business and political leaders will be timely for achieving the expected results.

Pepperonit Pizza Quich
I made this for supper one evening and it was so good and easy and I will make it again and I will also make it for my guests. I like the idea about putting pizza sauce on the botom of the crust and will give that a try the next time I make it
This is great
I added pizza sauce to the pepperoni on the bottom and the next time I made it added green peppers and onions. Add a salad and dinner is ready.
Pepperoni Quiche
wonderful idea
Pepperoni Pizza Quiche
I am always looking for something different, and this is different and great. My husband commented that he had never had pepperoni with eggs, but he liked it a lot! I did use Italian seasoning instead of just basil. I also added cracked pepper and doubled the pepperoni (hubby likes lots of meat). Next time I think I will make my own pie crust. I always think the frozen ones taste a bit sweet when used in savory dishes.
Easy and versatile
I thought this was very easy to make. I added onions, green pepper and tomato to the topping. Was delicious. Almost too cheesy though for me. I'll adjust next time.

Hollywood's movie tech wizards honored by Oscars organizers
By Tim Reid
BEVERLY HILLS, Calif. (Reuters) - From the team who made it possible to digitally curl and trim outrageous hair in "The Hobbit" trilogy to the inventors of a high-speed car chase camera used in James Bond film "Casino Royale", some of the most ingenious behind-the-scenes innovators were celebrated at a pre-Oscars ceremony on Saturday night.
Two weeks before the Oscars, the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences handed out its Scientific and Technical Achievement Awards to the visual effects, sound and technical wizards whose work behind the camera is a vital but often unheralded part of making movies.
While the Academy Awards on Feb. 22 will present Oscars to actors, directors and others who worked on films released in 2014, the yearly scientific and technical awards honor those who have contributed to the process of film making over a longer period of time, sometimes decades.
Presenting the awards were a pair who have had recent breakthrough roles in front of the camera: Margot Robbie, in "The Wolf of Wolf Street", and Miles Teller, the star of "Whiplash", a current best picture nominee. Robbie thanked the audience for making movies "stunning".
The Beverly Hills event gave awards to 58 individuals for 21 scientific and technical achievements. These usually consist of plaques or certificates but on Saturday two Oscar statuettes were presented, one to veteran sound engineer and Dolby Laboratories executive David W. Gray for his groundbreaking work on movie sound.
Gray, whose statuette came with the Gordon E. Sawyer lifetime technical achievement award, has dozens of film credits, including sound work on the 1983 hit "Flashdance" and the 1988 action blockbuster "Die Hard" starring Bruce Willis.
He thanked his children "for understanding that dad's a geek and a complete workaholic."
Also receiving an award was a team that developed SpeedTree, a software that creates virtual vegetation and has been used in the movies "Avatar" and "The Great Gatsby". Continued...

European shares retreat as G20 fails to strike new measures
* FTSEurofirst 300 index slips from 3-week high
* Cyclical shares among top decliners
* Morrisons rises after Amazon distribution deal
By Atul Prakash
LONDON, Feb 29 (Reuters) - European shares retreated from a three-week high on Monday and were on track for their third straight month of losses after a weekend meeting of the G20 group of leading economies failed to strike new measures to boost growth.
British grocer Morrisons helped keep a lid on gains, surging nearly 4 percent after a striking a distribution deal with online retailer Amazon.
The pan-European FTSEurofirst 300 index was down 1 percent. It has fallen more than 4 percent this month.
"Investors are disappointed that the G20 leaders fell short of coming up with new supporting measures despite once again repeating their concerns about the global economy and financial markets," said Philippe Gijsels, head of research at BNP Paribas Fortis Global Markets in Brussels.
The Group of 20 finance ministers and central bankers said they needed to look beyond ultra-low interest rates to revive the global economy, flagging risks to growth including volatile capital flows and sinking commodity prices. Continuación...
