Why would anyone think there should be charges against Brown?
as much as a stickler that I am about holding cops accountable, why would you expect charges at all?
those kops need bullets in the back of their heds
Maybe since he was backing off when she shot him?
Its obviously easier to use a fast bullet when the two fat asses could never have run him down.
t. shines again as another cop-sucking death monger.
Don't resist arrest and actively attack two police officers. Its a tragedy all the way around but the guy had a chance to run and instead came back for more. Not a smart decision…
Tragic as though it may be, it was justified. Oh, and you were wrong about where he was shot (once again).
An article from released transcripts…
"…Brown was still on the ground and Miley pulled her firearm and shot Salvato once in the abdomen. Miley said she felt Brown was injured to the point he wasn't able to assist her and she was on her own dealing with Salvato, so she shot him, fearing for her life, according to the transcript.
Brown, who apparently didn't realize Salvato had been shot, managed to get up and used a Taser on Salvato. Brown said he did it to stop Salvato and to make him get on the ground.
Salvato died by the time medical personnel arrived on scene…"
She spontaneously over reacted and let the tazer slip her mind and went straight for her weapon.
See how much pussies they are behind their badges?
Really, criminal Lauren Miley? Bring a gun to a fist fight? You should not be on the tax payers pay roll.
This is completely ridiculous.
So, a citizen fist fights thugs with guns, badges and a vest x2, the citizen gets the death penalty, but thugs with guns, badges and a vest x250, fist fights a citizen [beating on activists or people in general], the citizen gets the short end of the stick and the cops don't get the death penalty?
This at all make any fucking sense?
Who ever said this was justified needs their head examined.
Justified is weapon vs weapon, which ever side won at the time, cop or person, is justified.
discusting fat ass pigs,,,shot an unarmed man the tased him while he suffered with a gut wound,,,they are pathetic,,,hope the next time it is them that gets a bullet
Common, I have your card all ready to be addressed. Please post your name and address so it gets to you on time.
That FAT BITCH is as lazy as her cohorts. How can running away be a treat????
Did common sense just say "Tragic as though it may be"? Dude, what the hell happened to you? You have gone totally soft, and are not even remotely amusing anymore. Please kill yourself immediately.
Anyhow, pretty quick escalation on the part of the bloated cow, I mean female police officer. I guess at some point cops will just shoot motorists on the side of the road as soon as they approach their vehicle. Only way to be safe, after all. Because the Founding Fathers clearly stated that the safety and security of police officers comes before all other considerations or "freedoms".
***based solely on this video***
@ certain: Again another demonstration of your non thinking. If she shot him….why should / would he be charged?
I'll wait (this ought to be an incredibly stupid answer).
As usual Common Sense is always is lacking, Fat bitch discharged her pistol at a person running away from the confrontation. Shot him in the back, then the other fatass tasered him. How fucked up can these cops be?? These assholes may not be charged criminally but will loose civilly…This is a perfect example of stupid untrained police that kill w/o retribution……..
All I can say this is more proof the FDLE is one of the worse in the nation.
So, if a citizen fears for his life due to being approached by an aggressive armed gang member, can he shoot said gang member with no consequences?
Cops are nothing but members of the largest gang in town. They are all dangerous to citizens. Much more so than "criminals".
Disarm the cops for a safer America.
Hey common, I thought I got rid of you. How's that pedo uncle you're living with?
Tragedy, plain and simple. This LEO forced fatality is the result of poor training, poor personal interaction, and poor physical fitness on the part of Marion Country Sheriff's office. The community as a whole, should expect more from those who claim "Serving with Honor" http://www.marionso.com/main.php
As reported in The Gainseville Sun, http://www.gainesville.com/article/20121116/ARTICLES/121119657?p=2&tc=pg – Transcripts on fatal shooting by deputy released –
"While the grand jury didn't indict the deputies, the report pointed out lessons and recommendations that the MCSO should adopt.
Among some of the highlighted lessons were the deputies not using the proper technique in handcuffing Salvato, the quick discharge of the deputy's firearm — even though grand jurors say they understood her reasoning for firing the shot — and the continued discharge of the Taser after Salvato was on the ground and in handcuffs."
COPBLOCK STAFF/Volunteers – In order for this site and your credence as a decentralized "News Organization" there has to be some sort of "EDITORIAL OVERSIGHT" (Pete, Kate, and Ademo). To post a video with no sound, and the only context being the title
Marion County: Police Shoot Unarmed Man in the Back, No Charges Filed
Is complete and utter BULLSHIT. You're better than that, and this site has the potential to be better than that. There's a lot of "BULLSHIT" submitted to this site, whether it be Davy V. posting a video of a supposed LEO banging on his door, or the "Power-tripping, Gun-wielding Jackboots Harass Two Peaceful Dudes Near My House".
Seriously, upon seeing this video, I did a quick GOOGLE Search, and came up with The Gainseville Sun article. Which was a hell of a lot more informative, as well as contextual, than a simple posting of a audioless video with a sensationalized headline. Take the time to put out a quality product.
If you want to allow all to post without Editorial Oversight, fine, but you do yourself, and those whom participate in the discussion, a disservice. The idea of this site, as I understand it is the shared goal of police accountability. Have a bit of Copblock.org accountability as well.
Against brown, there should be no charges. The woman had no real justification for her actions. He was clearly only concerned with fleeing, not in attacking. As such, he wasn't a sufficient threat to her life. If she can't handle that without a gun, i suggest she return to her obvious prior employment as a dunkin doughnuts taste tester.
What happened to physical fitness standards?
Actually, I'll correct myself on the crack about being fat. Another look shows that was a trick of the light.
He was hit in the abdomen, not the back.
Audio to this video will tell all. The victim laid down, practically submitted to the officers unheard demands for him to obey. He did. Then the male officer decided he was due for some extra curricular MMA practice and employed some unneeded force to the victim. My guess is one of two things was going through the victims mind. 1) "Ok, Ive given up, lets hope they just take me to jail. Wait, whats this? Why is this guy roughing me up?" 2)"Fuck these pigs! Im going to pretend to submit, then when I am on the ground, and the two are trying to cuff me, Im going to fight them til they shoot me."
I dont buy it. "Oh well, lets just shoot him" technique isnt going to work forever before we start shooting back.
No, don't argue with t, he has all the facts. Just ask him. LOL. Looks like a lot more people think you're the tool, dude.
Based on what I see here, this seems like a good shoot. In fact I am actually impressed with how Miley handled the situation. She waited for backup before she tried to take Salvato into custody, and neither used excessive force when trying to handcuff him. Miley didn't even draw he weapon until after both her and her partner were physically overpowered by the suspect.
Since (and yes this leaves a rotten taste in my mouth) Common Sense is right and it appears Salvato was shot in the stomach I have no trouble accepting that Salvato was going to continue his assault on the officers. After all, when he was free of the officers grasp, he didn't run. He came at the officers.
I can't in good conscious demand cops get their shit together and fail to acknowledge those that do.
@certain: So that's your answer? Wow was I ever right, it was stupid. And who disagreed with me? Heck, even @shawn agreed with me. And look, even @clark thinks your wrong.
And so, on all the judges score cards, @certain took another tail beating and is out by TKO in the second round. Wow, this is your fastest loss to date.
@T…"And look, even @clark thinks your wrong." How about you abstain from speaking for me.
You see I only see two posts by @certain and I don't disagree with either.
Just because I can see how this incident can be seen as justified, doesn't mean I no longer "think you're the tool, dude."
The suspect just actively assaulted two uniform police officers. He was clearly shot in the stomach also when the officer who was in fear for her life discharged her duty weapon. To bad so sad dirtbag
both cops should be fired. what a disgrace. Do they not teach the officers how to grapple. whats the saying. fuck them in the neck
Cops are not punching bags. If you swing at them expect to get seriously hurt or shot. I don't go to McDonald's and swing at you because the fries are cold so what gives you the right to do the police like that
Have you heard the good news about Glik?
Let's see im gonna submit, go ahead and cuff me!
No on second thought Im gonna fight,
now im gonna run away,
And now im gonna come back and charge at you,
now Im going to take off running again.
now I have lead in my gut and I'm laying here dying.
Those cops could've justifiably emptied both their clips in this idiot!
Well unfortunately this can be attributed to the officer overreacting, which is no excuse. The problem here is that she had no probable or rightful cause for deadly force. In a lawsuit against her that is where her story falls apart. She was being assaulted, but was it truly a position she felt she could lose her life because he was swinging punches? No. Then he began to escape, so from that point on her life certainly wasnt in danger. So no deadly force justified. She should be sued and held accountable.
Man, He was clearly running away when he was shot. I think that ANYTIME someone is shot in the BACK by cope, there should be a thorough investigation.
@Everyone here:
t. is a social parasite. Can't you all see that he feeds off your anger? He takes pleasure in upsetting people. So, I suggest we all just ignore him until, without his sustenance he shrivels up and dies.
All I know if if someone punched me and I pulled my legal concealed pistol and shoot the man as he is backing off, I would be charged with something. I commend Officer Brown, who after being knocked out still has the control to follow protocol and pull his taser. But for her to instantly pull her gun because someone swing s at her. She is supposed to be trained in self defense, she is supposed to be able to chase down and safely capture s SUSPECT who is INNOCENT until PROVEN guilty. Ever done a google search for "cops shoot and/or kill unarmed" ? It crazy how often these things happen, hell right now in LA they are driving around shooting up white females and males in a manhunt for a black ex-LAPD officer in a vehicle not the same model, or color of those shot up. Oh, they stopped someone on the side of road, was he mentally stable (ever tried to hold down a person with certain mental disabilities, they are know to freak out and attack) ever tried to calm down a drunk and blackout friend and had them swing on you? So you should've just shot them? Right? And it's ok, shouldn't even be questioned???? You are idiots if think what happened there was ok…
but then again, things like this are regular occurrence in Florida http://www.thedailybeast.com/articles/2012/12/06/police-shoot-137-times-into-car-after-chase-killing-unarmed-couple.html

It's getting close to Valentine's Day – are you ready? If you or someone you want to give a treat to is avoiding sugar, this recipe for Lavender Rose Baked Donuts is for you.
These donuts are the perfect Valentine's breakfast, afternoon snack, or even a cute dessert. The best part is, you won't feel deprived at all. Each mini-donut only has 47 calories and 1.4 grams of sugar.
I used cornstarch as my powder base because it's used in regular powdered sugar. You should be able to use arrowroot or another base, but you can buy organic cornstarch that is not GMO.
I also ground some culinary rose petals and mixed into my homemade powdered stevia to give it a slight pink tint.
Serves: 12 mini donuts
- ¾ cup unsweetened non-dairy milk
- 1 tablespoon agave nectar
- ½ teaspoon apple cider vinegar
- ¼ teaspoon dry stevia or 10 drops liquid stevia
- ¼ teaspoon lavender extract
- ¼ teaspoon rosewater
- 1 cup whole wheat pastry flour (use gluten-free flour as a sub)
- ¼ teaspoon baking powder
- ¼ teaspoon baking soda
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- Pre-heat the oven to 350 degrees. Mix the wet ingredients in one bowl and the dry in another. Spray your mini donut pan with a little oil so they will be easier to get out.
- Then add the dry ingredients to the wet and mix just until it's mixed. Divide the batter between the 12 donut molds. Bake in pre-heated oven for 10 minutes.
- Let them cool for 5 to 10 minutes, then carefully remove. (If you don't wait they will stick to the pan even though you oiled it.)
- Take donut by the top and dip the bottom into the rose powdered stevia (recipe below). You may have to rub it in a bit to get it to stick.
- 2 tablespoons cornstarch
- ¼ teaspoon dry stevia, or to taste
- ½ tablespoons culinary roses, ground - optional
- Mix all the ingredients together with a spoon or in a mortar and pestle until it's finely ground and looks like powdered sugar.
Be sure to take a look at my Baked Almond Donuts with Chocolate Glaze and Lemon Donuts with Vegan Cream Cheese Frosting – they are all sweetened with stevia too!

With the cutthroat competition among contractors and subcontractors, the hourly wage rates of employees are often sacrificed. Thus, the California Labor Code mandates employers involved public works to pay their employees with the State-determined prevailing wage rate to protect employees working on public construction projects against unfair compensation. Under the Prevailing Wage Law, all contractors are required to follow a uniform wage rates when bidding on a public works project.
Prevailing wage rate specifies the minimum hourly rate entitled for workers engaged in specific craft, work classification, job description, or type of work within the city or immediate labor market area. Hourly rates in a given community are usually determined by the Director of the California Department of Industrial Relations or after a collective bargaining agreement by all stakeholders. If a specific line of work or craft does not have a single rate, then the average rate being paid to the majority of workers becomes the default prevailing wage.
Under the state labor laws, it is the responsibility of the employer to ascertain their compliance with current prevailing wage rates. Failure to comply with specified hourly rates for specific worker classifications can be a valid ground for a labor dispute or claim. Some of the common mistakes employers, intentionally or unintentionally, tend to make include the following:
• Use of inappropriate wage determination
• Misclassification of employees
• Failure to apply Predetermined Increases
• Not acknowledging the double asterisk (**) rule
• Ignoring addendums in the wage determination
• Failure to submit Certified Payroll Reports
• Not following Apprenticeship Requirements
If you feel you are paid less than the prevailing wage rates for your line of work, you may need to contact a qualified California Wage Law Attorney for necessary legal remedies. Depending on your case, the Wage Law attorney may recommend either filing a complaint with the Director of the Industrial Relations or filing a suit to recover the unpaid wages and subsequent damages. The law mandates that legal actions must be implemented in such cases, regardless of whether the employee filed a complaint with the Director or not.
Usually, the services of a proficient California Wage Law Attorney are indispensable in labor claims. Successful claim or suit guarantees payment of the unpaid wages plus applicable interests and necessary charges as well as reasonable attorney's fees. Moreover, contractors and employers who have been prosecuted and convicted for intentionally violating the Prevailing Wage Law may face severe consequences, including fines and disbarment from bidding on any public construction projects.

Resource Manager(s)
Resource managers within ISC typically provide most of the human resources for a project. Within ISC's matrix management framework, the project manager and the rest of the project team continue to report to resource managers within their individual permanent organizations in addition to performing their temporary duties on the project.
Resource managers have a variety of responsibilities, and many of these responsibilities do not pertain to PMAP. From a PMAP perspective, resource managers play a critical role and their responsibilities include the following:
- Participate in identifying appropriate resources that could be allocated to support the project's needs
- Approve specific candidates to be assigned to a project
- Ensure that resources are effectively utilized
- Ensure that higher priority projects are not jeopardized by reallocation of resources
- Ensure the quality of their organization's work in support of the project
- Verify that team members have the tools and methodological skills necessary to carry out their responsibilities on the project
- Collaborate with the project manager concerning feedback for individuals' performances on specific projects

Ok. I'm trying to use FPDF to fill out an existing forms. I'm positioning my element with X,Y coords as well as giving each Width and Height attributes. Ideally, the text should align bottom left, and if it wraps, then it should push the text up, unless it can't fit inside the height of the MultiCell, then it just simply hides what can't fit. I would like this behavior in most places, but i would also want it to behave where it simply wraps as normal (which i believe is the default value.). So I would like to know if these 2 features are possible:
overflow hidden when text flows outside the specified height/width dimensions of the cell/multicell
optionally align bottom, so upon wrap, the first line text moves up, rather than staying fixed and pushing the 2nd line down.
Any ideas or plugins for this?
I found a plugin that seems to handle both. It's here:

'TWENTY-NINTH SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME Lectionary #147
We need to pray, but prayer is more than a matter of words. Like the Gospel, it should be on our lips, in our minds, and in our hearts. Like Moses, we may even need to embody prayer.
General Intercessions: A Reminder
Since this Sunday's readings underscore the importance of incessant and insistent prayer, today presents an opportunity to evaluate the way in which the general intercessions are prayed in our communities. The prayer of these intercessions is found not so much in the intentions that are announced by the deacon or reader but rather in the response that is made by the rest of the assembly. The litany form of the intercessions suggests strongly that this response should normally be sung, so that the assembly's prayer ("the prayer of the faithful") may have prominence.
Most of the major service books contain simple settings of the assembly's response. The response should not be varied too often, perhaps on a seasonal basis. The deacon or cantor may sing each intercession; or the deacon or reader may read each intention, while the cantor sings a brief invitation to the response.
In preparing the liturgy for this Sunday, ask whether the general intercessions in your parish form a strong litany and whether they express the community's incessant and insistent prayer to God.
Exodus 17:8-13. The ancient posture of prayer, assumed by Catholic priests for the Eucharistic Prayer, is standing before God with hands raised in petition. Moses assumes this position, but he needs help to maintain himself in prayer, just as we do.
Psalm of the Day: Ps (120) 121. A pilgrimage hymn, sung on the way up into the mountains toward Jerusalem. The psalmist knows that God does not dwell only in the high places or in the Temple, but God is the one who will come to help the faithful.

Miner's Tips
"Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD)"
PDF Version
As summer comes to an end and the days get shorter, some of us will experience bouts of depression. These feelings of depression may be due to a condition called seasonal affective disorder. Symptoms begin in the fall, peak in the winter and diminish in the spring. The causes of SAD are unclear but heredity, stress, body chemistry and sunlight may play a role. Reduced sunlight may affect circadian rhythms which regulate the body's sleep/wake cycles. SAD affects approximately 6-10 percent of the population with women reporting more cases. Another 10-20 percent may experience the milder, "Winter Blues". SAD symptoms include depression, loss of energy, anxiety, irritability, headaches, increased sleep, loss of interest in sex, overeating, weight gain and difficulty concentrating. If you experience depression through two winter seasonal cycles, you should contact your physician. SAD symptoms can occur in other seasons when daylight is diminished. For example, foggy conditions, poorly lit work places, buildings without windows, and working at night can induce some of the same symptoms.

I am planning an addition to my house and considering hydronic radiant heat floors as the only option for heating the new addition and some existing areas like bath. I have problems finding any knowledgeable HVAC contractor who has experience in hydronic heat and can give me an unbiased honest advice and help me design the system.
I spent quite a time researching the subject online but got completely different opinions. I would really appreciate if someone with the knowledge would tell me, what heat source is preferred in my case and what the whole system consists of.
The addition is ~1500sf, I live in central NJ, the fuel is NG. Current heating is forced air furnace, I do not want to touch it, new system will be an addition, not replacement. The addition will include big room on slab foundation and second story area. The house will be well insulated: all attics R-49, walls R-19.5, floors under second story addition will be probably R-30 and the slab will have at least 2" (R-13) foam insulation. All windows are E4 Andersen windows.
I want at least two zone hydronic system for new addition: one is for big room on the slab and another for second story area. I intend embedding PEX tubes into the slab, tired them to rebar, and for second story with hardwood floors I will put plywood panels with grooves and aluminum backing and run the PEX tube inside the grooves.
I have very limited space in my basement where new system can be installed. So the ideal approach for me for the heat source would be radiant heat source and water heater combination unit that does not take much floor space. This unit will also replace existing NG water heater and provide hot water for entire house. Especial value for me would be the system that I can at least partially DIY.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

By Tiffany Rider - Senior Writer
May 7, 2013 – Despite protest from one of the project bidders and the objection of one councilmember, the Long Beach City Council on April 23 approved the purchase and sale agreement of 100 Long Beach Blvd. (known as City Hall East) with Ratkovich Properties.
This was welcome news to downtown representatives, 2nd District Councilmember Suja Lowenthal and Vice Mayor Robert Garcia, who made the motion to approve the item and seconded it, respectively.
"I'm very pleased that this brings one era to a close and opens a new chapter in the building's life as well as that of the East Village and downtown," Lowenthal said. "I am really excited about the potential here. The timing for revitalizing this building could not have come at a better time. . . . The building's activation will go a long way bridging the large chasm between the downtown core areas of Pine and The Promenade, and the East Village retail and arts. I have a feeling that this could certainly be the glue that brings it all together."
Garcia echoed Lowenthal's comments about this project bringing forth connectivity between the downtown and East Village. "To be able to think that we will have something there that will be bringing new people in, new residents, people who are going to be shopping, eating and enjoying what downtown has to offer is pretty exciting," he said.
Though the property has been vacant since 2005 – the police department had previously occupied it – the city has over the past year incurred $90,000 to $100,000 in costs to provide 24-hour security due to vandalism. In addition to ongoing costs, city staff has struggled to sell City Hall East since the first request for proposals (RFP) was issued for the structure back in March 2010, according to Michael Conway, business and property development director for the city.
The selected respondent to the first RFP decided to end the deal after five months of due diligence, "ultimately advising that the project did not support the proposed sale price of $4 million," Conway said at the council meeting. A second RFP was issued in January 2012, this time proposing residential use for the property to align the project with the new Downtown Plan. The selected respondent to the second RFP, Watt Investment Partners, withdrew its offer by December 2012 "citing similar project revenue shortfalls and unachievable financing hurdles."
Ratkovich Properties was the second choice bidder on the project and was selected in February at a price of $2.1 million to develop a mixed-use project called The Edison Lofts with 134 studio, one-bedroom and two-bedroom apartments and ground floor retail. Close of escrow is estimated to be June 7.
Lyon Capital Ventures submitted a formal protest to the council as one of the bidders on the RFP. "This is a formal protest to the proposed action by the city," City Attorney Robert Shannon told the council. However, Conway later told the Business Journal in an e-mail that there is no protest procedure for RFPs.
"The implied procedure for an RFP would be to address the Council at the time the contract is agendized to be awarded," Conway said. No one in the audience at the April 23 meeting identified themselves as representing Lyon in protest.
"Everyone is aware of our attempts with this property in the East Village, to sell it and have it developed," City Manager Pat West said during the meeting. "We've gone through a couple of RFPs. We now have a responsible respondent." Staff estimated revenues of $2.4 million from city development and building permit fees, approximately $300,000 a year in property tax and the benefits of about 175 new residents in the downtown area.
According to Conway, the process of valuing the property was complex as there are no other surplus assets that come close to City Hall East. "Appraisals generally rely on comparable sales, replacement value and income capitalization," he said in an e-mail. "As this property is a complete re-use of an office building, there is very little comparable information. Nonetheless, an appraisal was prepared that used vacant land values, comparable rental rates and estimated rehabilitation cost to arrive at a 'value.' I continue to avert that bidding the property to sophisticated real estate developers, with access to experienced and well funded financing partners, will result in the best estimate of market value. While we may be able to wait for a better price, we could very well miss both the interest rate market and residential demand as they both significantly influence cost and value."
Even so, 5th District Councilmember Gerrie Schipske indicated several objections to the deal and voted against the item. One such objection was with regard to the valuation of the building by the city's insurance company. "We are either paying a helluva lot more for insurance than we need, or somebody is not valuing that property appropriately. This isn't the first time. This is a repeated process that we get. I would hope we could maybe sit down and talk with our insurance company about why they've indicated the value was $35 million." Conway responded to her comment, "Absolutely."

Pittsburgh's land-banking idea requires better vetting
The Peduto administration and Pittsburgh City Council supporters tout the promise of their proposed city land bank. But serious concerns remain that must be resolved, thoroughly and publicly.
The land bank would duplicate much of what the Urban Redevelopment Authority already can do to get vacant, abandoned and tax-delinquent properties into new hands, redeveloped and back on the tax rolls, albeit with expedited title and bidding processes. Developer Aaron Chaney of Murrysville questions the need for "this extra layer of bureaucracy" and is concerned about the land bank's seven-member board playing favorites. He urges there be clear criteria and limited time for such property sales.
Two of the board's four mayoral and three council appointees would be from housing or community development groups. Bonnie Young Laing of the Hill District Consensus Group wants even more board seats for them.
Councilman Ricky Burgess perhaps went overboard in calling the land bank a city "land grab." Time will tell. But his call for council oversight highlights another concern: the land bank's accountability to taxpayers — especially with an unelected board.
As we've previously editorialized, the land bank sounds good on its face. But the aforementioned issues must weigh heavily in any final decisions. Hopefully, City Council's public hearing this week (Thursday at 6 p.m.) will properly address them.

SIL's dedication to language development past and present
In this research we investigate reports by the Kakabai Translation Committee and others that some Kakabai speakers are unable to use Kakabai print materials in the variety chosen for development (Takwatakwai). The purpose of the survey was to clarify these reports and determine why Takwatakwai-variety literacy materials are difficult to use.
Kakabai is an Austronesian language spoken in mainland Milne Bay Province, Papua New Guinea. Findings from the survey show that sociolinguistic attitudes, orthographic differences, or literacy skills are not causes of reported difficulty. Rather, difficulty is caused by linguistic variation in the form of regular sound changes and alternate lexical items which differentiate the Kakabai variety spoken in each main village. Teachers in Boilave, the village with the most linguistically different variety, find that young children have not yet acquired good intelligibility of the Takwatakwai variety. Since children are the target audience for many of the literacy materials, and Boilave children have difficulty using them, the Boilave teachers are requesting alternate-variety materials. The linguistic differences are not as great as expected, however, and there is consensus among the Kakabai villages that Takwatakwai is the best variety for overall development. The villages all value the unity created by having shared language development. We therefore recommend adherence to the standard variety in all Kakabai schools. The teachers in Boilave could develop initial primers in the Boilave variety and bridging materials, if necessary, to help their students.

If you know the agency or orphangae in Italy then we can try to get your birth record. The only two Corrosi that are listed anywhere in the world so it seems are on the ellisisland.org website and they are from Carpiento R (Romano I suspect) in Province of Rome while the other Corrosi was from acquasanta in the province of Ascoli Piceno, Marche region. I assume you for certain that they are deceased here in the USA correct? We can always request their military records if you need any vital information. Have you tried to obtain any social security information on these two Corrosi from Italy? They are the key to all this. Please let me know and don\'t despair. Peter

Kent County Council's (KCC) objections to the Folkestone Girls Grammar test were backed by the School Adjudicator.
The council said dual-test criteria confused parents, while the school said a previous adjudication had found "possible flaws" in the county's test.
On Thursday, the school declined to comment on the decision.
Cllr Leyland Ridings told BBC Radio Kent that other grammar schools in east Kent were also operating a dual-test system and it would be challenged next year.
He said the standard of the separate test used by a number of schools was "extremely high".
But he added: "I think we just felt it was entirely inappropriate in terms of clarity, fairness and objectivity for there to be two different sorts of tests."
The adjudicator's report said the "Dover test" was first offered by the Dover Grammar School for Boys, and later by Dover Grammar School for Girls and Folkestone Girls Grammar.
'Anomalous' position
It said: "The test is used in the belief that it gives pupils from disadvantaged backgrounds the opportunity to perform better than they would on the county test if their vocabulary is impoverished.
"It is run in parallel with the Kent tests and only makes a material difference where a child is deemed to have passed the Dover test, but failed the Kent tests."
It said KCC had "no route for objecting the action" in the early 1990s, and allowed the same test to be applied at Dover Grammar School for Girls, because of "the apparently anomalous position created for families in the area".
But it said that Folkestone School for Girls had recently adopted the same test, after which the education authority took action to resolve the anomaly.
School adjudicator Dr Peter Matthews said the previous adjudication in 2005 had found possible flaws in the Kent-test but allowed the school's dual test for one more year to promote "further discussion".
He said the council had collated information and had not undertaken consultation, but he believed KCC had responded appropriately.

Image and Message in Sensory States
Document Type:ASSC Conference Item
Topics:Sensory Systems
Date of Issue:2010
Event Dates:June 24th-27th 2010
Event Location:Toronto, Canada
Event Title:ASSC 14
Event Type:ASSC Conference
Presentation Type:Lecture
Alternative URL:http://web.mac.com/mohanmatthen/Site/Mohan_Matthen_files/Image%20and%20Message%20in%20Sensory%20Representation.pptx
Abstract:The content of a mental state is the state of affairs that it envisages. A visual state, for instance, may inform us of the presence of a blue disc somewhere off to the left – this is its content. Sensory states carry content imagistically – the subject is presented with a spatiotemporally connected array of features and objects in which each feature is encoded by a characteristic experience. Thus, a subject who has a visual impression of a blue disc will see it as a part of an array in which this disc has location relative to everything else in the array. Further, the subject's experience of the disc will be experientially similar to that of every other blue thing she does or has experienced, and also similar (though in another respect) to every other presentation of a disc. Now, this imagistic mode of presenting content has certain formal limitations, which is illustrated by the following conundrum. Consider (a) a visual perception, (b) a memory, and (c) an imaging of a blue disc. All can involve the same image. Yet, the messages they convey are different: (a) carries the idea that the blue disc occurs now, (b) that it occurred in the past, and (c) that it is unreal. How do these states convey these differences? Not by the sensory image, because it is a common element. I propose to solve this problem in two complementary ways. From a psychological point of view, the problem just posed indicates that there has to be a significant component of sensory states different from the image they present. I propose that a sensory image is generated by a sensory system, but is then taken up and used by other systems. The signature of the user‐system provides the additional component we are searching for: for instance, the fact that the memory system is using an image marks that image as past. From a logical point of view, I exploit the distinction between content and force. The fact that a particular system is using an image gives it a certain force that accounts for the extra element.

A site devoted to the idea of triple bottom linePosted: January 27th, 2010 | Author: Jennifer Roberts | Filed under: Sustainability | No Comments »
I'm not sure how I found this site. Oh yeah, over at tonic.com they had a review of America's Most 'Sustainable' CEOs with a link to Triple Pundit. The site's content is devoted to People, Planet and Profit and there is a lot of it and they appear to want more business writers.
I generally don't like topic specific sites; it always seems like the ideas are confined to a narrow sphere of expression. So, if the site is about the environment that's all there is, the lens for every article is green. I guess there is nothing wrong with that and I suspect most sites are like that, of course. I find I get the most out of my reading when I follow links from related topics on unrelated sites. So, a link from a site about art or books or cycling, leads to an article in Scientific American, which provides a link to another interesting thought on a marketing site. And somehow, for me, that provides context and depth and helps my understanding. Of course, sometimes I get lost in a maze of my own linking but that's ok, too.

One of the most respected Eurosceptic Tory MPs today launched a campaign for a referendum on the Lisbon treaty in a direct challenge to the party leadership which last week said it would not make good David Cameron's pledge for a poll on the issue.
In an email to constituents announcing his intention to campaign for a referendum, Douglas Carswell said: "I want you to know that I have begun a campaign for a referendum on the EU. All three parties promised us a referendum. Yet somehow it hasn't happened. I think that's wrong."
Last week Cameron disappointed Tory MPs and grassroots alike when he ditched his commitment to hold the poll on the grounds that a pledge made regarding a treaty was no longer relevant once the treaty had become law. Instead he promised to prohibit any further transfer of power to the EU without a referendum, and to negotiate to bring certain powers back to Britain.
Today this new policy position was undermined when Kenneth Clarke, the Europhile shadow business secretary, described the new policy as "largely reassurance".
He said: "We're going to have a go at repatriating, going back to the old opt-out on the social chapter. People want to be reassured on criminal justice. I think it's largely reassurance, myself."
Chris Bryant, the minister for Europe, said: "The cat's out of the bag. David Cameron's leadership has been found wanting on Europe and Tory divisions are clearly alive and well. Ken Clarke's comments show he doesn't believe Cameron's rhetoric and it's certainly not enough for his own backbenchers, who are launching a campaign against their leader's policy."
In the immediate aftermath of his decision Cameron was hit by the resignation of two hardline Eurosceptic MEPs, Roger Helmer and Daniel Hannan. Carswell's launch of a campaign for a referendum indicates that not all Tory backbenchers will accept the policy change.
Carswell – whose last campaign to have the former Speaker Michael Martin removed from office ended in success – was bullish about his chances of securing a vote on a referendum, telling his constituents: "I will campaign for a vote on Europe with the same determination that I campaigned to remove the Commons Speaker.
"No one in Britain under the age of 52 has had the chance to vote in a referendum on Europe. For years it has been left to professional politicians and diplomats to decide EU policy. I believe it is now time to let the people have their say."
In an interview at the weekend Carswell said he continued to support Cameron, but had a different opinion to his party high command on the issue.

1) What operating system are you using? Do you use the command line programs (prsam / getannotations) or the graphical program (prsam-tk)? (I'm interested just so that I can speak the right language.)
I'm on a Mac OS 10.7. I tried and was successful with prsam and prsam-tk before, but only on the main reader drive.
2) Have you used the getannotations program? If so, does it list PDFs on the microSD card? If so, what happens when you select one of them?
I followed your advice and this did the trick. getannotations is pure genius. Thank you again! It works perfectly with the MICROSD card and the reader drive.
I think the reason it didn't work before is because I messed up the code. I have near zero experience with programming or terminal, and messed up the path. I googled the right path for external drives in Mac OSX and it was done.
3) Can you browse the contents of the microSD card when it's in the Reader and the Reader is plugged in to your computer? If so, does the card show up as a subdirectory of the Reader, or does it show up as a separate drive?
I can browse the contents and it shows as a separate drive.
Sorry it took me so long to answer. I won't try prsam or prsam-tk any further, getannotations does it for me.

THE anticipation ahead of Super League 2013 has gone up a notch after Sky Sports launched its coverage with a 'Hardest Sport In The World' promotion, featuring Man Of Steel Sam Tomkins and Tour de France winner Sir Bradley Wiggins.
The promo sees rugby league fan Wiggins climbing winding roads on his bike as an unidentified hooded athlete runs through the surrounding forests up the mountain.
Wigan player Tomkins then emerges onto the road as the champion cyclist rounds the final bend and the pair continue up the hill side by side.
The video has won a positive reaction from supporters on social media.
Wiggins, who is known to train in areas of Crank and Rainford, has previously spoken of his respect for Rugby League players on a Boots 'n' All special on Sky Sports.
He said: "In the late 90s I moved up north to train closer to Manchester at the velodrome, met my wife - she's from Wigan - and the first thing her father did was take me to a Wigan match. From there really I fell in love with the game.
"The thing that struck me the most was just how hard and how physical it was. Everyone knows it is a physical game but I had only seen union up to that point, but league... just how fast it was, how athletic the players were.
"It was a proper sport to the point where you sit in the stands, you get to hear the tackles. From a sport like cycling we think it's dangerous at times with the crashes, but it was no comparison really and it was inspiring, sitting there watching."

I personally love suspense novels with plenty of action, interesting characters, and exotic locales. Especially if those interesting characters are speeding around European capitals. If you feel that way as well, look no further that Douglas Corleone's debut thriller, Good As Gone.
Simon Fisk is a former U.S. Marshal whose life was shattered six years ago when his young daughter was abducted. That one horrendous act permanently scarred him -- ruining his life, his marriage, and his career. These days Fisk works as a private contractor,tracking down and recovering children abducted by estranged family members. His one rule is he'll never take on a stranger abduction job.
That is until Fisk is "persuaded" to take the Lindsay Sorkin case. The six-year-old child was taken from her parents' hotel room in Paris. The trail left by her captors leads Fisk into the dark corners and seedy streets of several European cities. Will he find Lindsay in time?
Douglas Corleone has written a non-stop action thriller with a good many twists and turns. A portion of the action takes place in Poland, an untapped locale for intrigue, I thought. Good As Gone is released August 20th, so pick it up if you want an exciting read for the summer.

His name in the comics, Stephen Stills, is a direct reference to his real-world namesake, the famous singer/songwriter who was also a part of the supergroup Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young.

Details on Pa. Turnpike traffic backup show heroic efforts by volunteers
Tom Wertz's fire department pager went off at 12:20 a.m. Jan. 23 with a call from Bedford County's emergency dispatching center seeking help for hundreds of drivers stranded on a snow-clogged stretch of the Pennsylvania Turnpike near Allegheny Mountain Tunnel.
Wertz, 49, chief of Shawnee Valley Volunteer Fire Department, met at the fire hall in nearby Schellsburg with member Justin Milburn and plowed through snow in a four-wheel-drive brush truck to an access gate at mile 138.
"We had about a foot of snow already, and they said they had a backup on the turnpike. I had no idea what it was going to be like when we got there," he said.
What awaited them was a roughly 16-mile line of traffic that had been building since a tractor-trailer hauling chocolate triggered a 5.6-mile backup when it crashed and blocked the westbound lanes about 5:21 p.m., turnpike officials told the Tribune-Review in response to questions.
The incident drew national attention and raised questions about whether turnpike officials moved fast enough to help drivers who were stranded overnight and relied largely on volunteer emergency responders from nearby small towns who could reach the area. No one died or was seriously injured, but state officials promised to examine the response.
Exacerbating the problem as heavy snow fell, at least two tractor-trailers at 7:40 p.m. blocked the turnpike's westbound lanes as they struggled to climb the east slope of Allegheny Mountain near mile 123, officials said. Shortly after 9 p.m., the backlog grew when westbound traffic was stopped near the Kegg Maintenance Building at mile 132.2 to prevent more vehicles from entering narrow "cattle chutes" in place because of a construction project.
The Pennsylvania Turnpike Commission this week is expected to release initial results of an investigation it began into the state's response to the backlog that, for some, lasted for more than 24 hours. Based on interviews with first responders, 911 dispatchers and drivers, updates from Gov. Tom Wolf's office and other official sources, a story emerged of firefighters from small rural departments and other volunteers teaming up to begin checking on stranded drivers and, in some cases, delivering food and water before Pennsylvania National Guard forces arrived.
A time line of events shows that turnpike officials realized the storm's severity on the afternoon of Jan. 22 and moved up plans to lower the speed limit and ban large trucks, but it was too late.
Many drivers dialing 911 reached Bedford County's dispatch center, which handled 351 calls — more than double its typical weekend rate, said Emergency Management Director Dave Cubbison.
Bedford County dispatched members of small volunteer fire departments and other first responders in response to a request from the turnpike at 11:54 p.m. Jan. 22, hours after the backup began. The Pennsylvania National Guard would not arrive until after 9 a.m. that Saturday, meaning it was up to the volunteer departments to check on miles of cars, buses and trucks stuck in the westbound lanes.
"I was amazed. I would have never thought it would have been anything like that," Wertz said.
He and Milburn joined other volunteer firefighters who spent the next 27 hours painstakingly making their way across the valley and up the mountain, and then circling down and up again, checking on stranded motorists, one at a time, to make sure they were safe.
Truck driver Mark Lusk, 45, of Charleroi was stuck at mile 134 for 25 hours, beginning Jan. 22. He said he first saw firefighters from Bedford on Saturday morning.
"The firefighters were just going vehicle to vehicle, seeing if they needed anything, if they needed supplies," Lusk said.
Firefighters on all-terrain vehicles delivered supplies to those who needed them, he said.
"They were mostly using the quads to supply water and sandwiches if people were hungry out there," Lusk said.
Later that day, he saw National Guard soldiers digging cars out of the snow so they could travel up the shoulder to make a U-turn onto the eastbound lanes.
At the western edge of the backup, volunteer firefighters from Shanksville and Berlin, two small towns on the other side of the Allegheny Tunnel, worked their way down the mountain, checking on travelers from that end.
Wertz eventually met up with a firefighter from Berlin. Throughout the evening, he heard dispatches from volunteer firefighters from New Baltimore who were working the eastern end of the traffic jam.
About 10 members of the Shawnee Valley VFD came out to help on the mountain. Others couldn't reach the firehouse.
"Some of our guys couldn't even get out because they live on township roads that hadn't been plowed," Wertz said.
In some areas, Wertz was able to steer through the backup. Some drivers would wave and give them a thumbs up. Others were sleeping, so the firefighters got out and pounded on car windows.
"Hardly anyone was nasty, but one lady must have been pretty mad. She flipped us off. But everyone else was being really nice," he said.
When the Shawnee Valley brush truck skidded down an embankment, a group of teenage boys and their chaperones got out of a stranded bus and rallied around the truck. Using 5-gallon buckets, chunks of cardboard and shovels from the firefighters, they freed the truck and pushed it up the hill.
"Without them helping us, we would have never got out without a tow truck," Wertz said.
The volunteers and a contingent of turnpike workers and state troopers manned the snow-choked roadway through the night and morning of Jan. 23, when other volunteers and first responders arrived with all-terrain vehicles, water, fuel and food.
"We were blessed in that they did not come across any injuries," said Cubbison, with Bedford's 911 center.
A Wal-Mart store donated 35 cases of water, and local eateries and stores assembled sandwiches, he said.
"Lots of businesses and individuals were bringing foods, and fire departments were all cooperating," Cubbison said.
Wertz was impressed with the response.
"I have to give the community around our area credit. They came out and provided all kinds of help. There were units from Bedford, Blair and Somerset County, and I thank them all," Wertz said.
By the time he left around 3:30 a.m. Sunday, things were beginning to clear up.
"There were still over 200 tractor-trailers stuck on the mountain," the chief said.
Wertz, a meat cutter at a Bedford grocery store, went home, napped and made it to work at 7 a.m. Sunday.

History of the Polish Room
The Polish Room owes its existence to a special relationship between the University, the city of Buffalo, and the local Polish community. It was established in 1955, on the occasion of a large conference of Polish Americans held in Buffalo, then home to a thriving Polish Arts Club and many other organizations and institutions devoted to preserving their Polish heritage. The 21 royal documents, that are the cornerstone of the collection, were donated to the library by the owners of Sattler's Department Store as a symbol of goodwill and commitment to the East Side of Buffalo and to Polonia. Their purchase was arranged by the prominent Polish journalist, Aleksander Janta, who had made Buffalo his home.
Since 1955, the Polish community of Buffalo has dispersed somewhat, but Buffalo remains a center for many Polish cultural activities. For many years the Polish Room participated in the exchange of books and journals with scholarly publishers in Poland.
There is an undergraduate Center for Polish Studies at the University, offering courses in the Polish language, Polish literature in translation, post-war history and culture. Visiting professors from Poland offer additional courses, including advanced Polish. The Polish Room also occupies an important place regionally for the State University of New York and other educational institutions in Western New York, Southern Ontario, and Western Pennsylvania. Scholars from Binghamton, Rochester, Toronto, and Syracuse, as well as from the local area, use the Polish Room regularly for their research, and the Room has become a reference source for many people outside of academia, including genealogical researchers, Polish immigrant high school students, and Polish Americans with an interest in their heritage. Among the students and faculty who use the collection frequently are those researching topics in political science, history, comparative literature, sociology, theater, law, and environmental studies.
Lost Library Treasure Returns
A long lost UB Libraries treasure has been recovered. A stained glass medallion, depicting Marie Curie, has returned to the UB Libraries, thanks to a generous donor and the diligent work of a UB alumnus.

I'm having difficulty with implementing dhcp relay, on Ver 1.21
In use is a Soekris unit with 2 ethernets (sis0 and sis1) and 2
wireless interfaces (wi0 adn wi1)in hostap mode.
I am attempting to have both wireless interface users connect to an AP
interface and obtain it's IP address supplied by a DHCP server one hop
out on the WAN interface. wi0 is currently bridged with sis0, and
appears to work as intended. As we can't bridge a 3rd interface to the
WAN, I thought of using the dhcp relay function. I set wi1 as the LAN,
and am attempting enabled dhcp relay on it, and set the destination
server to the appropriate IP address (a DHCP server on another m0n0wall,
directly connected to the WAN, where the NAT needs to take place). I
believe I have added appropriate entries in the firewall rules to allow
the DHCP requests and replies, but still no IP address obtained on the
2nd wireless interface.
The DHCP range will be the same netbock as the WAN. If I set the
wireless' interface to a different submet, then how will those users be
able to get to that network? If I set the wireless' interface to the
same netblock as the WAN .. the box appears to 'break'..... usually
can't connect to it and have to re-connect via the 2nd physical
ethernet, and change the address on the 2nd wireless.

Nightmare - Poem by tijan jonas kah
I see everything going on, murders, evictions, prostitution and poverty
Feeling the pain, right from my heart, to my brain
People watching there back always on guard
Don't know when someone's going to attack,
don't know when there going to have to fight back,
No one there to care, or attend, people just trying to defend
For themselves, for there families, minors carrying knives and guns
There's drug dealings, peoples messing with other peoples feelings
Muggings regularly, thugs high on drugs
Peoples getting stabbed or shot, for a blackberry
Peoples round here have the lost the plot
Blood everywhere, paramedics on scene
Suspects acting innocent to keep themselves clean
These streets are mean, homeless people lying around scrounging
Eating food that there don't know where it's been
Diseases and infections, thugs taking injections
Parents in a panic can't cope with this life of no hope, murders and dope, turned to drugs, just so there can hide for away, but then there sober up, this nightmare never goes away.

July 22 2017 Latest news:
Adam Aiken, Editor
Monday, June 13, 2011
Barclays, which said complaints made up to April 20 would be settled as an act of goodwill, is the first of the high-street banks to make such a move, but it is likely that others will follow suit.
The long-running row over PPI has seen the banks' reputations take a hammering, and they face an even bigger hit in terms of financial cost. Some estimates have put the total amount of compensation to be paid by the industry at about £10bn.
In April, the banks lost their case against new regulations introduced by the Financial Services Authority (FSA). Although the British Bankers' Association said it might appeal, Lloyds Banking Group threw in the towel last month, quickly followed by the other banks. The latest move by Barclays means many customers could receive their compensation sooner than expected.
"The quickest way for these banks to clear the backlog is by paying up, so we're pleased that Barclays has chosen to settle all complaints that it put on hold while this went to court," said Which? chief executive Peter Vicary-Smith.
"It's now up to the other big banks to follow suit and quickly reimburse customers who are entitled to compensation.
"Banks also need to start the process of reviewing the thousands of complaints that they have unfairly rejected over the past few years.
"Even without the delay caused by their legal action, some banks have a terrible record for dealing with complaints within the regulator's eight-week timescale. Until these firms are hit with substantial fines they have little incentive to change their inefficient practices."
PPI is designed to cover debt repayments if a policyholder is unable to work because of an accident, illness or job loss. But many people who have bought PPI have been mis-sold it.
Common complaints have been that it was sold to consumers who would never be able to claim on it while other people felt pressurised into taking it out alongside loans or credit cards. Some people did not even realise they had bought the product.
Andrew Hagger, of Moneynet, said: "The decision from Barclays is a common-sense move and one that I hope other lenders will follow.
"It's been a seemingly endless stream of bad news as far as PPI is concerned, but it looks as if the tide is now turning in favour of the customer at long last. A speedy resolution is in the best interest of all lenders whose reputations have been undoubtedly tarnished by this sorry episode."
In a separate development, the FSA said it had granted Royal Bank of Scotland (which includes Natwest) and Lloyds more time to deal with the backlog of PPI complaints. They now have until the end of August to sort out claims that were put on hold while the judicial review was under way.
It remains to be seen whether RBS and Lloyds will take advantage of this extension or fall into line behind Barclays.

One of the items on my gift list this Christmas was a new MacBook. 'Tis better to give than to receive, and to give a Mac is to release myself of laptop husbandry, which is possibly the best gift of all. Anyway, I picked up a used MacBook on eBay for a good price, and much to my relief, it finally appeared at my door at 7pm, Christmas Eve.
I wasted no time in unpacking it and checking it over. It wasn't the pristine cosmetic example boasted about in the auction details, unfortunately, but it did come with all the original packaging, discs, and so on. With little time to spare before Christmas, I fired it up to make sure everything worked. It booted directly into the only user account on the system.
It hadn't been wiped or reinstalled.
I took a few minutes to see what there was to see. Within two clicks, I'd found a folder named "Passwords", populated with lists of sites, usernames, passwords, and answers to security questions. There was another named "Tax Returns" that contained full copies of tax returns. There were invoices, e-mail, saved correspondence, and even some interesting photos, all carefully organized.
The previous owner had basically given me every possible detail about their identity, all for the incredibly low price of a used MacBook.
Of course in this case they lucked out. They sold it to me. After a quick perusal and ensuring that the hardware specs matched the auction details, I threw in a Leopard disc and did a full wipe and reinstallation.
I can't quite fathom the thought process that went into this sale. For me, wiping the hard drive before selling or giving away used hardware is as fundamental as breathing. Also, when the new owner turns it on for the first time they're greeted with the first-boot welcome and setup functions which almost makes the laptop seem new. Everybody wins.
Some computers are sterile workstations that contain very little identifying information about the owner, but laptops and home desktops are generally very personal -- they house the modern equivalent of the contents of a wallet or purse, in addition to the contents of filing cabinets in a home office. Nobody would dream of selling a wallet or purse without emptying it first, and they would never sell their filing cabinets with their files still in them, so why do so many people sell computers without performing this basic and simple step?
It's not just individuals either. Companies do this with frightening regularity. Sometimes, so do political campaigns. Most cases go unreported for obvious reasons.
It would be very interesting to go through eBay and buy a half-dozen used PCs, just to see what is on the systems when they arrive. I bet at least a few would contain information similar to what I found on this MacBook. I'm also sure that plenty of people have had their identity nicked in just this way.
As I mentioned earlier, I try to avoid being married to the computers of friends and family. I'll help out if I happen to have the time, but increasingly I just say "Get a Mac" when confronted with tales of DLL errors, malware, viruses, and so forth. There's one thing I'll always help them with though, and that's wiping a system they want to get rid of. I suggest that more geeks do the same.

Always Perfect Sweet and Sour Meatballs
Recipe by Sarah Chana
This recipe has gotten me out of innumerable kitchen emergencies, including unexpected guests, finicky guests, and kids on a hunger strike. It has become so popular in our world that many guests visiting (especially from out of town) request it in advance before they get here. Similarly, many young brides have asked for this recipe as their wedding gift (don't worry--they got a regular gift too!). It can be doubled, tripled, etc., freezes and reheats well, and can handle an almost infinite number of variations (some of which I will include below).
Top Review by saramokey
Wow super recipe!!!!!!!! I made the sauce exactly as the recipe said. I browned the meat balls for a few minutes and let them boil in the sauce for about 15 minutes. I served them with brown and wild rice.
See Discussion:18 Reviews 3 Tweaks
Ingredients Nutrition
- 1 lb ground beef
- garlic powder
- onion powder
- 1 egg
- 1⁄4 cup matzo meal
- 12 ounces chili sauce
- 1⁄2 cup brown sugar
- 1⁄4 cup lemon juice
Directions See How It's Made
- Mix together beef, garlic powder, onion powder, egg, and matzo meal.
- Form into small balls and set aside.
- Pour chili sauce into medium saucepan.
- Refill bottle with water, shake well, and add to pot.
- Add the brown sugar and lemon juice, and mix.
- Bring sauce to a boil.
- Taste and adjust amounts of lemon juice and brown sugar to taste.
- Drop in meatballs.
- Return to boil, cover, and simmer for at least 20 minutes (but you can leave it on for much longer if you forget).
- VARIATION #1:For chili sauce, you can substitute either tomato sauce or tomato juice or diced canned tomatoes, and adjust the sweeteners and water accordingly. You just want it to be a saucy consistency, not too thick or thin. If you use plain tomato juice or sauce, you can add in some garlic powder or other seasoning. The sky is the limit. But, do NOT use spaghetti sauce!
- VARIATION #2:For matzo meal you can substitute bread crumbs, oatmeal, a little flour, or any other binding agent.
- VARIATION #3:For brown sugar you can substitute real maple syrup, sugar, honey, grape jelly, or any other real sweetener. (Do not use nutrisweet or any other artificial sweetener!).

Scarborough to Brzezinski on Morning Joe: "[D]on't make me backhand you"
On the January 30 edition of MSNBC's Morning Joe, host Joe Scarborough said to co-host Mika Brzezinski, "Mika, don't make me backhand you." Scarborough made the comment after telling CNBC chief political correspondent John Harwood: "I, actually -- I don't endorse anybody because, as you know, I'm a journalist," prompting Brzezinski to laugh. Brzezinski responded to Scarborough's "backhand" remark: "Oh, lord."
From the January 30 edition of MSNBC's Morning Joe:
HARWOOD: I think, Joe -- I know you were holding back, but I think that [Florida Gov.] Charlie Crist [R] endorsement might have had even more juice than a Scarborough endorsement. What do you think?
BRZEZINSKI: I think so.
SCARBOROUGH: I, actually -- I don't endorse anybody because, as you know, I'm a journalist. However, there's no doubt, there are two things --

Wellston Contractor Being Sued
On Wednesday, Ohio Attorney General Mike DeWine (pictured) announced a lawsuit against Johnny Poe, a Wellston home improvement contractor, who is accused of performing "shoddy and incomplete work."
"When you pay someone thousands of dollars for their services, you deserve to get what you pay for," Attorney General DeWine said.
"When businesses fail to live up to their promises, we will hold them accountable," he added.
According to the Attorney General, Poe did business as Johnny Poe Construction and JP Construction, and the Attorney General's Consumer Protection Section received three complaints from consumers who said they paid Poe $4,700 to $42,000 for work that was never completed as promised.
The lawsuit, filed in the Jackson County Common Pleas Court, charges Poe with violations of Ohio's Consumer Sales Practices Act and Home Solicitation Sales Act. In the lawsuit, Attorney General DeWine seeks consumer restitution, civil penalties, and injunctive relief.
The Attorney General recommends consumers who believe they have been treated unfairly in a home improvement transaction to file a complaint with his office by calling at 800-282-0515 or logging onto www.ohioattorneygeneral.gov.
