County, Ohio Virtual Cemetery Project
The Ford Cemetery is a long neglected cemetery located in a heavily wooded area on a privately owned 139 acre parcel of vacant farm land in Virginia Military District Survey #4239. Some of the early owners of the property can be identified by looking at various maps which would include J. Spence (1856, 1867, 1875), T. D. Spence (1892), W. F. Eltzroth (1903) & J. M. Cretcher (1932). The cemetery is included in the WPA Veteran Grave Registration Project as Cemetery #26 on page 13 which shows 7 rows containing 10 graves each. The plat does not identify any veteran burials.
There were 33 known burials in this cemetery from 1815 to 1886 plus a footstone which does not match any of the names. Sadly, hardly any of the stones remain standing in 2009 and many of the stones are in pieces. Our volunteers were able to find and photograph all but the stone for Nancy Fulks, dau. of J. & C. Fulks who died on 20 Dec 1835 aged 26 days.

Tex Mex Samosas
Recipe by Jakey Bakey
If you're familiar with Indian or Middle Eastern food, then you've probably heard of "samosas" (a.k.a. samboosas, empanadas, sambuseks, etc.). They're little fried triangles of dough filled with various things (cheese, potatoes, meats and vegetables). This is my take on them. They're great for potlucks and parties (although wrapping them does take some time). I made these for my friend's children's birthday party last year (vegetarian style since she doesn't eat meat) and everyone loved them and wanted the recipe.
Top Review by JewelryMaker
My whole family absolutely loves this meal, and that in itself is a miracle. I add some fresh diced tomatoes from our garden if we have them. I also add an extra slice of cheese in each pocket for my cheese-lovers. Some of my clan likes to add sour cream at the table. It has been a hit every time I have made it!
See Discussion:1 Review
Ingredients Nutrition
- 1 lb ground beef (or you can use Boca burgers to make this vegetarian)
- 1 medium onion, finely chopped
- 1⁄3 cup finely chopped red bell pepper
- 1⁄3 cup finely chopped green bell pepper
- 1⁄4 cup picante sauce (or salsa)
- 1⁄2 cup crushed potato chips
- 1 (1 1/4 ounce) envelope taco seasoning
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1⁄4 teaspoon garlic powder (or 1 clove minced)
- 1 (500 g) package empanada wrappers (or samosa or won ton, about 50 sheets or wrappers)
- 1 egg, beaten
- oil (for frying)
Directions See How It's Made
- Cook ground beef.
- Add onion and peppers and cook awhile longer. Stir in picante sauce, potato chips, taco seasoning, cheese and garlic. Cook until heated through.
- Let mixture cool slightly.
- Using one sheet of the wrappers at a time, make a pocket (you will wrap these like you used to fold the American flag when you were a Girl Scout) and spoon in some filling (about a teaspoon). Begin folding in triangles along the length of the wrapper. Before the final fold, brush the egg on the last flap to help seal things.
- Heat oil and fry sambosas until lightly brown.
- (If you have a deep fryer, you can fry these up faster and easier.)
- Serve hot.
- (This recipe makes a LOT of filling.).

DETROIT – There will be no gnashing of teeth if, as expected, General Motors Corp. loses its global sales crown to Toyota Motor Corp. "Leadership is important," says Mark LaNeve, vice president-vehicle sales, service and marketing, GM North America. "But what's most important is that we grow our reputation." GM, which has held the top sales spot for 76 years, has not released its final data for 2007 or a forecast for full-2008. But industry forecasts call for Toyota to surpass GM as the ...

Obesity and its related health issues are more prevalent then ever, and the problems will only seem to get worse in the coming years. Thus, it's important for us to keep our body's health in mind as we live our lives, not only to improve the quality of our lives but also the quality of our society. However, many of us simply are too overtaxed to do what we need to do to get in shape. Luckily, there are some ways to improve our fitness and our health quickly. Here are eight ways to get in shape in 30 days:
- Keep this in mind: though you can make good improvements in 30 days, fitness and health is a life long commitment. You can't just work out and eat right for 30 days and go back to old habits and expect those changes to stick. These 30 days are the beginning, and should be followed by another good month, and another, and so on.
- Get a system. There is plenty of information out there, so take your pick, but I recommend The Diet Solution.
- Get your diet under control. Find out what you base calories are for the day, and make sure your diet reflects your goals based on those calories. If you want to lose weight, eat fewer calories; gain weight, eat more. To maintain your weight, make sure you eat as many calories as you body needs every day.
- Eat a well-balanced diet of whole grains, lean protein, and healthy fats. Get in your vitamins and minerals, eat fruits and vegetables, and perhaps take a multivitamin to supplement your diet. Drink plenty of water. Avoid simple sugars, sodas, alcohol, and fatty foods except for occasional treats. Keep your portion sizes under control.
- Keep track of your diet in these 30 days, counting your calories carefully and making sure you are eating what you need to eat. If you plan everything out right, you should be able to make significant changes within those 30 days.
- To get in shape in 30 days you will need to add a fitness program to your efforts. Mix in cardio, strength, and flexibility training throughout your program. In your month of workouts, you should have around 15 days of cardio, 8 days of strength, and 20 bouts of flexibility training, with plenty of rest days in between. If you already have a good amount of fitness, consider upping these amounts.
- To get in shape quickly, such as in 30 days, you will need to make sure you do enough intensity in your workouts. Long, rambling, aimless bouts on the treadmill or with the weights won't be as effective as well-planned, intense, short bouts of exercise. Intensity will get the job done here, not necessarily volume. Make sure you give your body enough rest, however, to recover and repair from the workouts. You actually make the physiological changes you desire when you are resting, not when you are actually working out – the workout is the stimulus, not the result.
- Consider joining a "boot camp" program at a local gym or fitness center. These clubs will give you the motivation, workouts, and tools to get you in shape fast. There are also video and DVD programs that purport to do this. Always check reviews of these products and services before you commit to anything, however.

*Sample* Nas: "Political"
Newscaster: "Recently there has been an emergence of socially
Conscious and political rappers. It seems to be
A new trend in the Hip-Hop world."
*DJ scratches sample* Nas: "Nas is a rebel to America" 3X*
[Vers 1: Nas]
Yeah, check it, uh
Spot build-rocker, lil' papa killed Hoffa
Beard lil' longer, feel strong and I'll stop ya
Drill sergeant, still thorough, wheelbarrows of distilled vodka
Get me real bonkers like Will Ferrell on cat tranquilizer
Rap guys get bank and think they messiahs, but they liars
Vote fo who now? You're red, white and blue?
I'm American too, but I ain't with the president's crew
What you peddlin' and who you peddlin' to?
You ain't got the ghetto with you
Try'na lead my sheep to the slaughterhouse
Talkin 'bout +Rap the Vote+, you ain't thought about
The black vote mean nathan, who you gonna elect
Satan or Satan? In the hood nothin is changin, uh
We ain't got no choices who to choose
Ten-years ago they were tryin to stop our voices
And end Hip-Hop, they some hypocrites
Condoleeza Rice - I don't really get this chick
Tell her if she ever really cared about poor schools
About poor children, then she gotta prove that she
Ain't just another coon Uncle Tom fool
Like these MC's, gotta give 'em the rules
Lie to the youth, Uncle Tom you confused
Might as well give the Hip-Hop community a noose
Need a truce with the gangs and some food for the hungry
On Kerry nuts, he look at you like a monkey
You MC's on that old slavery path
The Bushs'll look at yo' ass and laugh
See, it's all about community, let's help ourselves
Cops brutalize us get dealt with with shells
It's our turn, it's 'bout time we win
Need somebody from the hood as my councilman, uh
[Hook: Kelis]
Yeah I think about this every day, that's the American Way, shit
(Repeat x4)
[Verse 2: Nas]
Up in the steam room chillin', exfoliating the skin
Israeli men conversatin' on ends, probably businessmen
I sense good taste, and they watch us, the spots an expensive place
Manhattan New York, I'm try'na keep steamin'
It's good for the lungs, had plans for the evening
This man leans in, his boys laughing
Now I'm the spokesperson for Black men, this always happens
Says, "Since all Black women care about is who got dough
And all we do is call them either bitch or a Black ho"
I say first brotha you ain't gotta be that cold
Since you ignorant, I'mma show you how the facts go
The biggest example in scandal of history
Were Monica Lewinksy or Donald Trump's pimping spree
Most women who love Givenchy or Gucci
Are pretentious, non-Black groupies or floozies
But who are we to blame, not the dames
It's a man-made game, in essence our woman the same
Beautiful creatures, Black girls birthed the earth
So they deserve the Hermes purse
Matter fact, I'm about to go shopping with my dime
Catch you cowards the next time, the next rhyme, uh
I don't care about the runaways
I don't care about who's gay
I don't care about dying of AIDS
But I care if I got paid
Who even cares about the president?
I think they're making a mistake
I don't care about the hurricane
As long as my family's safe
I don't care about the candidates
They burnt this country to bits
Yeah I think about this everyday, that's the American Way (Nas: Uh)
Can we make a change
You know it's not overnight
Let's start the fight (Nas: And ya don't stop, uh)
Can we make a change
You know it's not overnight
Let's start the fight (Nas: Yeah)
Yeah I think about this everyday, that's the American Way
*Sample* Nas: Nas is a rebel to America!
Track off of Nas's 2004 album Street's Disciple featuring future (and now ex) wife Kelis. Classic political Nas song touching on politics in America.

What version are you using?
First, note that the reason you're getting your answer in braces, rather
than just the answer -- i.e. {antiderivative}, rather than just the
antiderivative -- is that you put your first exponent in braces, rather
than parentheses.
With that problem fixed, then in version 5.2, the result is
Gamma[p] Gamma[q]/Gamma[p + q].
The antiderivative you got is equivalent to that and also to Beta[p,q].
Thus, there is no bug.

Subject: Lookup: Gabriel & Margaret CASLEY
Date: Tue, 26 Dec 2000 16:44:44 +0000
I'm trying to find out the age of the Margaret HATTAM that features
in the IGI listed marriage of Gabriel CASLEY & Margaret HATTAM in
Does anyone have an easy way of finding this couple on the 1841 or
1851 Census (Presuming they're still alive and in St Just) and
telling me their ages at the census?
I'd be expecting either 64/65 or 53/54 for Margaret in 1841 and hence
74/75 or 63/64 in 1851. Might be pushing luck even further if I asked
for an 1861 lookup.
Bit of a tall order I guess, but someone might have extracted it already.
Happy New Year

North Korea's newly launched satellite marks a "big deal" for Pyongyang, the crossing of a major threshold and a public relations win for the secretive country's new leader, Kim Jong Un, experts say.
The success, after years of failed attempts, triggered worries among world leaders about nuclear weapons, Iran and the balance of power in the Pacific.
U.S. Defense Secretary Leon Panetta called the launch "clear provocation."
Experts do not believe North Korea has a nuclear warhead small enough to fly on the kind of missile that Pyongyang has now proved it can send long-distance.
But the launch allowed the regime to flex its military and technological muscle on the world stage.
Panetta told CNN he is "very confident" that if North Korea were to launch a missile at the United States, the U.S. military could guard against it.
N. Korea's launch sparks worries about nukes, Iran and the Pacific

Edmunds was born in Cardiff, and as a teenager, he first played in 1954 with a band called The Edmunds Bros Duo with his older brother Geoff (born in 1940, Cardiff). Then the brothers were in The Stompers later called The Heartbeats formed in 1957 with Geoff on rhythm guitar; Dave on lead guitar; Denny Driscoll on lead vocals; Johnny Stark on drums and Ton Edwards on bass. Then Dave and Geoff were in The 99ers along with scientist and writer Brian J. Ford. After that Dave Edmunds was in Crick Feather's Hill-Bill's formed in 1960, with Feathers (Edmunds) on lead guitar; Zee Dolan on bass; Tennessee Tony on lead vocals; Tony Kees on piano and Hank Two Sticks on drums. The first group that Edmunds fronted was the Cardiff-based 1950s style rockabilly trio The Raiders formed in 1961, along with Brian 'Rockhouse' Davies on bass and Ken Collier on drums. Edmunds was the only constant member of the group, which later included bassist Mick Still, Bob 'Congo' Jones on drums and John Williams (stage name John David) on bass. The Raiders worked almost exclusively in the South Wales area.
In 1966, after a short spell in Parlophone recording band The Image (1965–1966), with local drummer Tommy Riley, Edmunds shifted to a more blues-rock sound, reuniting with Congo Jones and bassist John Williams and adding second guitarist Mickey Gee to form the short lived Human Beans. After just eighteen months, the core of 'Human Beans' formed a new band called Love Sculpture that again reinstated Edmunds, Jones and Williams as a trio. Love Sculpture scored a quasi-novelty Top 5 hit by reworking Khachaturian's classical piece "Sabre Dance" as a speed-crazed rock number, inspired by Keith Emerson's classical rearrangements. The band issued two albums. After Love Sculpture split, Edmunds had a UK Christmas Number 1 single in 1970 with "I Hear You Knocking", a Smiley Lewis cover, which he came across while producing Shakin' Stevens and the Sunsets' first album entitled A Legend. The recording was the first release on Edmunds' manager's MAM Records label. This single also reached No. 4 in the US, making it Edmunds' biggest hit by far on either side of the Pond. It sold over three million copies, and was awarded a gold disc. Edmunds had intended to record Wilbert Harrison's "Let's Work Together", but when he was beaten to that song by Canned Heat, he adapted the arrangement he intended to use for it to "I Hear You Knocking", producing a highly original remake. Unfortunately, the success of the single caused EMI's Regal Zonophone Records to use an option that it had to claim Edmunds' album, 1972's Rockpile, and the momentum from the single's success on a different label went away. His own solo LP from 1975, Subtle as a Flying Mallet, was similar in style. The Brinsley Schwarz connection brought about a collaboration with Nick Lowe starting with this album, and in 1976 they formed the group Rockpile, with Billy Bremner and Terry Williams. Because Edmunds and Lowe signed to different record labels that year, they could not record as Rockpile until 1980, but many of their solo LPs (such as Lowe's Labour of Lust and Edmunds' own Repeat When Necessary) were group recordings. Edmunds had more UK hits during this time, including Elvis Costello's "Girls Talk", Nick Lowe's "I Knew The Bride", Hank DeVito's "Queen of Hearts" (written for Edmunds and later a US hit for Juice Newton using the same arrangement), Graham Parker's "Crawling from the Wreckage", and Melvin Endsley's "Singing the Blues" (originally a 1956 US No. 1 hit for Guy Mitchell, and a UK No. 1 for both Mitchell and Tommy Steele). Taken from his "Anthology" collection, 1993.
The Mavericks – THERE GOES MY HEART - The Mavericks are an American band founded in 1989 in Miami, Florida. Between 1991 and 2003, they recorded six studio albums, in addition to charting 14 singles on the Billboard country charts. Their highest-peaking American single was 1996's "All You Ever Do Is Bring Me Down", a collaboration with accordionist Flaco Jiménez. The band split up in 2004, and lead singer Raul Malo released six solo albums. Robert Reynolds released two solo EPs and co-founded 'supergroup' SWAG with fellow Maverick Jerry Dale McFadden, along with Ken Coomer of Wilco, Tom Petersson of Cheap Trick, and Doug Powell. In 2012, the band announced plans for several reunion festival dates. Shortly after, they were offered a record deal by Big Machine Records and recorded their reunion album In Time. The much-anticipated album was released in February 2013. From their "It's now! It's live" CD, 1997.
Susan Tedeschi – I FELL IN LOVE - Susan Tedeschi, born November 9, 1970, is an American blues and soul musician who has received multiple Grammy Award nominations and is well known for her singing voice, guitar playing, and stage presence. She is a member of the Tedeschi Trucks Band (originally known as "Soul Stew Revival"), which is a conglomeration of her band, her husband's The Derek Trucks Band, and other musicians. Susan Tedeschi was born on November 9, 1970, in Boston, Massachusetts, to a family of Italian ancestry (Tedeschi means Germans in Italian) and was raised in Norwell, Massachusetts. She is the daughter of Dick Tedeschi, granddaughter of Nick Tedeschi and great-granddaughter of Angelo Tedeschi, founder of the New England-based supermarket and convenience store chain. Tedeschi has always been musically inclined and made her debut public performance as a six-year old understudy in a Broadway musical. Also, she sang for family members and listened to her father's record collection of old vinyl recordings, like Mississippi John Hurt and Lightning Hopkins. Raised as a Catholic, she found little inspiration in the church choir and attended predominantly African-American Baptist churches, feeling the music was "less repressed and more like a celebration of God." She has played in bands since the age of 13. At the age of 18 she formed her first all-original group The Smokin' Section in the nearby town of Scituate, Massachusetts.
After graduating Norwell High School, Tedeschi attended the Berklee College of Music where she sang in a Gospel choir. She received her Bachelor of Music degree in musical composition and performance at age 20. During that time she began sitting in on blues jams at local venues and immersed herself in the Boston music scene. Tedeschi formed the Susan Tedeschi Band in 1993 featuring Tom Hambridge and Adrienne Hayes. In 1995 her then boyfriend, Boston musician Tim Gearan taught Tedeschi how to play blues guitar. It was then she really began to hone her skills on the instrument. In December the band released Better Days to regional audiences. Record contracts were difficult to keep together; however, recording sessions from 1997 were acquired by Richard Rosenblatt and the band was signed to indy label Tone-Cool Records and Just Won't Burn, featuring young guitarist Sean Costello, was released in February 1998 to very positive reviews, particularly from blues critics and publications. Susan was the first artist to play the very first Sunset Sessions in March 1998 at the Marriott in the US Virgin Islands. In 1999, Tedeschi played several dates in the all-woman traveling festival Lilith Fair organized by Sarah McLachlan. Throughout 1998 and 1999 she toured extensively throughout the United States and drew larger crowds. From her third CD, "Wait for Me", 2002.
Warren Zevon – EL AMOR DE MI VIDA – Warren William Zevon (January 24, 1947 – September 7, 2003) was an American rock singer-songwriter and musician. He was known for the dark and somewhat outlandish sense of humor in his lyrics.
Zevon's work has often been praised by well-known musicians, including Jackson Browne, Bruce Springsteen, Bob Dylan, and Neil Young. His best-known compositions include "Werewolves of London", "Lawyers, Guns and Money", "Roland the Headless Thompson Gunner" and "Johnny Strikes Up the Band", all of which are featured on his third album, Excitable Boy (1978). Other well-known songs written by Zevon have been recorded by other artists, including "Poor Poor Pitiful Me" (a huge hit for Linda Ronstadt), "Accidentally Like a Martyr", "Mohammed's Radio", "Carmelita", and "Hasten Down the Wind".
Along with his own compositions, Zevon recorded or performed occasional covers, including Allen Toussaint's "A Certain Girl", Bob Dylan's "Knockin' on Heaven's Door" and Leonard Cohen's "First We Take Manhattan". He was a frequent guest on Late Night with David Letterman and the Late Show with David Letterman. Letterman later performed guest vocals on "Hit Somebody! (The Hockey Song)" with Paul Shaffer and members of the CBS Orchestra on Warren Zevon's My Ride's Here album. From his compilation CD, "Reconsider Me – The Love Songs", 2006.
John Hiatt – ICY BLUE HEART – John Hiatt (born August 20, 1952) is a rock guitarist, pianist, singer, and songwriter. He has played a variety of musical styles on his albums, including New Wave, blues and country. Hiatt has been nominated for several Grammy Awards and has been awarded a variety of other distinctions in the music industry. He remains one of the most respected and influential American singer-songwriters. Hiatt was working as a songwriter for Tree International, a record label in Nashville, when his song "Sure As I'm Sittin' Here" was covered by Three Dog Night. The song became a Top 40 hit, earning Hiatt a recording contract with Epic Records. Since then he has released twenty-one studio albums, two compilation albums and one live album. His songs have been covered by a variety of artists in multiple genres, including Bob Dylan, The Searchers, Willy DeVille, Ry Cooder, Linda Ronstadt, Bonnie Raitt, Eric Clapton, B.B. King, Joe Bonamassa, Willie Nelson, Three Dog Night, Joan Baez, Paula Abdul, Buddy Guy, the Desert Rose Band, Jimmy Buffett, Mandy Moore, Iggy Pop, Emmylou Harris, Rodney Crowell, Dave Edmunds, Nick Lowe, The Nitty Gritty Dirt Band, Rosanne Cash, Suzy Bogguss, Jewel, Aaron Neville, Jeff Healey, Keith Urban, Joe Cocker, Chaka Khan, Paulini and many others. From his CD "Slow Turning" 1988.

I'm tried source based routing, and it does not work (it routes internally). I read the help on SO_DONTROUTE, but it seems to make the kernel not able to send to a router. I would like to be able to route, ie port a -> router -> port b I already bind to a particular port and IP, and use policy based routing (source based routing) to make sure the packet is sent out the correct local interface. I just need to find the routing logic that notices the destination IP is local and tell it to quit looking (probably for a particular socket, as I can see how this could break applications who didn't expect it) I dug through the code once before looking for this, and didn't find what I needed. Can anyone suggest the right files and/or methods to look in?

Australian pop star Dannii Minogue has attacked the British National Party (BNP) after comments she made were used by the far right group as evidence that she supported their anti-immigration policies.
Minogue said her remarks in a magazine article about Asian immigration in Australia and right-wing French politician Jean-Marie Le Pen, had been taken out of context.
The comments led to her being posted on the BNP website under the heading 'Kylie's sister backs the BNP' and prompted the Anti Nazi League to label her a racist and a hypocrite - being an immigrant to England herself.
But the Home and Away star turned singer told PA News she was "mortified" that she was associated with the party and said she would be taking legal action.
"I'm really, really upset about it," she said.
"I've obviously been misquoted ... This is something very serious and something that I obviously have to be speaking to my lawyers about."
Speaking of the Asian-born population in Queensland, Minogue, 31, told GQ magazine: "Even some of the street signs are in Asian!"
But she said she was only stating this as a fact and that she did not think it was a bad thing.
"Australia is the most multicultural melting pot of people. I'm completely proud of that," she said.
"I grew up in Melbourne where mostly the people around where I lived were Greeks and Italians which I absolutely loved.
"And I said in parts of Queensland there's lots of Asians and, you know, yes it's true some street signs are in Asian. I wasn't saying that was a bad thing.
"I'm mortified that I'm being connected with this website."
Asked whether she was happy with the level of Asian immigration in Australia, Minogue said: "I can't comment on the number of Asians around," but repeated that she was glad Australia was a melting pot of cultures.
Minogue also told GQ she could see why Le Pen was so popular, saying: "I think he struck a chord with people."
Here again she said she was merely stating a fact, not offering an opinion one way or another.
"I'm not understanding it as far as that I'm siding with anyone," she said.
"But I'm saying that the fact that he has become popular, he must have struck a chord with people. People don't follow someone for no reason.
"I'm not siding with the people that are following him, I don't agree with what he's saying, I don't follow him at all.
"That's an observation, the same as the observation that there's street signs in Australia that are in Asian."
A spokesman for the BNP said the party was not concerned by the singer's threat of legal action.
"We only reproduced exactly what we read in GQ magazine so we have nothing to worry about," the spokesman said.
"We don't want to be discourteous to the poor girl, but why should she be worried by speaking her feelings?
"Anyway, we've got people in the BNP who are far better musicians. We're into serious good white music like Mozart and Bach," the spokesman added.

Maurice Strong served as Secretary General of both the United Nations Conference on the Human Environment (Stockholm, 1972), which launched international negotiations on environmental issues and led to the establishment of the United Nations Environment Programme, and the United Nations Conference on Environment and Development ("The Earth Summit," 1992; Rio de Janeiro). Forty years after Stockholm, the goal of sustainable development continues via the Rio+20 conference in 2012. This book will enable a broad readership to understand what has been achieved in the past forty years and what hasn t. It shows the continuing threat of our present way of living to the planet. It looks to the challenges that we face twenty years from the Rio Earth Summit, in particular in the areas of economics and governance and the role of stakeholders. It puts forward a set of recommendations that the international community must address now and in the the future. It reminds us of the planetary boundaries we must all live within and and what needs to be addressed in the next twenty years for democracy, equity and fairness to survive. Finally it proposes through the survival agenda a bare minimum of what needs to be done, arguing for a series of absolute minimum policy changes we need to move forward.

I would not worry about the kindle wifi. It is mostly "receive only" with only very short transmit bursts. Radiation damage is cumulative, and I would worry about talking on a cellphone next to your head for extended periods much more than using kindle wifi at arm's length with only occasional web page refreshes or other wifi activity.
You know, I've never given this a second thought, yet I have spent 2 years sleeping with my kindle or iPhone, and recently, my 7" tablet, under my pillow, reading books to me all night - and day when I'm sick - and I already have a (non-malignant) brain tumor.
It was discovered just before I got a kindle, so I don't blame it on that, but what's crazy is that my docs have seen me do it when I'm in the hospital, and no one has ever said a word about it.
Is it safe if I keep wireless off and use airplane mode on iPhone?

Executive Chef Olivier Rousselle has the cuisine of Gascony in his blood. His formal culinary studies began when he was just 16 years old. He took upon an externship in Gascony under the tutorship of famed chefs Bernard Ramouneda and Andre Daguin. He has had an extensive career throughout the world.
From Paris, he traveled to London to work with chefs Keith Podmore and Keith Stanley, both from the prestigious Academy of Culinary Arts. While working with Podmore, Rousselle frequently cooked for Prince Charles, the Queen Mother and other members of the Royal Family. His next move was to South Africa's wine country where he helped transform "La Couronne" Hotel and Winery with chef Peter Goffe-Wood.
Rousselle is now in California adding a French touch to 'farm fresh' cuisine. We asked chef Rousselle to share a recipe that would work perfectly any day of summer. He told us that "the Farmer's Market Yellow Gazpacho is a great, cool appetizer or side to serve during the summer season. Made with fresh, local tomatoes and other ingredients, it's the perfect summer soup to serve at a dinner party to help you cool down during the warm summer days."
Farmer's Market Yellow Gazpacho
- 3 mixed yellow and white heirloom tomatoes
- 1 cucumber
- 1 yellow pepper
- 1 shallot
- 1 stick of celery
- 3 cloves garlic
- 1 cup extra virgin olive oil (first cold press)
- 3 teaspoons aged sherry vinegar
- fleur de sel
- a bunch of basil
- ½ cup toasted almonds (optional)
- Choose tomatoes of different varieties, chop them up.
- Peel and chop the cucumber and chop yellow pepper, shallot, garlic, celery
- Leave to marinate overnight with a cup olive oil and 3 teaspoons of sherry vinegar
- Add fleur de sel and basil to mixture; put through power blender and emulsify with olive oil for smooth consistency
- Refrigerate for 24 hours and serve in a chilled martini glass or shooter; garnish with toasted almonds

Conservative Tea Party activists picked Georgia radio host Herman Cain and Texas Rep. Ron Paul as their top choices to run against President Obama next year. Sarah Palin placed third in the Sunday presidential straw poll of nearly 1,600 members of the Tea Party Patriots, Reuters reports.
Cain captured the support of 22% of those attending the Tea Party Patriots' weekend policy summit in Phoenix. Paul had the most votes overall, thanks to a surge of online support.
Paul and Cain spoke to the gathering; Palin, the 2008 GOP vice presidential nominee and a favorite of Tea Party groups, did not.
Another likely GOP presidential contender, former Minnesota governor Tim Pawlenty, did address the group and placed fourth in the poll, according to the Associated Press.

On a warm summer evening, way up in the mountains of Northeast Georgia, the ram's horn will sound across the meadow and lake. Soon, villagers dressed in colorful garb will go about their business. Then Jesus will walk among them.

As people sit in lawn chairs, they will hear the music, listen to the story and watch as Roman soldiers arrest Jesus, take him to the crucifixion and, finally, the tomb. The hillside will echo the song of a choir as it beckons "Rise Again."
These unfolding scenes are from the outdoor drama "His Last Days," now in its 22nd year. It has drawn thousands of visitors over the years, some who keep returning. At 7:30 p.m. Sept. 3 and 4, the Broken Vessels Renewal Ministries again will present the drama, which is conducted cantata-style with actors, a narrator and choir.
Some years, at least 2,000 people have gathered for the drama in the picturesque pasture bordering a lake in Habersham County on the grounds of Tallulah Falls School. About 200 volunteers will participate in the drama, which not only includes the cast but the people behind the scenes working on sounds and props. And adding to the realism, there are sheep, goats, donkeys and horses.
The drama has proven successful in past years and seems to build on this success every year, said Carole Murphy, the originator of the drama, who partners with Jan Volk as co-directors.
"It's spread a lot by word of mouth. A lot of people who come and receive a blessing say, 'I'm going back home, and I'm going to bring family or my Sunday School class next year.' I think people are generally surprised," said Murphy, whose husband, the Rev. Bob Murphy, is executive director of Broken Vessels. He also is pastor of Fork Chapel United Methodist Church in Greshamville, while she serves as choir director for Johnson United Methodist Church in Watkinsville.
The drama is equally popular with the cast, so much so that many actors come back every year to participate, some from different points in Georgia and out of state.
Some cast members participated as children and now have adult roles.
"Now they're grown and married and they're coming back and bringing their own children. It's a beautiful thing to see," Murphy said from her home just outside Bishop in Oconee County.
Murphy envisioned the drama in 1984. Prior to that, her husband was the pastor at Winterville United Methodist Church, where she also served as music director. In 1982, he was named director of Covecrest, a Christian retreat located in Tiger in the Northeast Georgia mountains.
"Bob had an old fashioned campground meeting overlooking the lake. He preached one night on the Garden of Gesthemane and a lady came up to him afterward and said, 'You were so vivid about the garden' and she sort of waved her hand and I saw a picture of people in Biblical costumes."
This creative flash inspired her to see the possibility of an outdoor drama.
"I thought about cantata style, using music and narration and scenes acted out around the mountain lake at Covecrest," she said. "I didn't have a church congregation, so I started asking people (to help) that I knew in the mountains, and the Rabun area Methodist churches started helping me."
The drama is based on "His Last Days" by Dallas Holm, a singer and musician who has written and performed Christian songs for more than 30 years.
"The music is beautiful, and it told the significant events in the ministry of Jesus. I knew I could get together a choir and a cast and some floodlights. The simplicity of it, I think, adds to it. We don't have sophisticated staging and lighting, but the natural setting is what makes it so beautiful."
"Over the course of the 22 years, I have edited it and added some songs and scenes, but we basically still use that cantata," Murphy said.
That first year, Murphy visited newspapers and TV and radio stations to spread the word about the drama.
"We had probably 400 to 500 people. I was totally blown away, but it was a sign to me that it was possible and people would come," she said. Later, her husband went back into the ministry of a church and they had to find a new venue for the drama. They found it on the grounds of Tallulah Falls School, a private school located off U.S. Highway 441 north of Clarkesville.
Horses and cattle were pastured on the land, so they had only one week to move the animals to another location and get it shaped up. The school was pleased with how they managed the land, and as a result "The Last Days" is in its 12th year at this location.
"This was a cow pasture. It no longer is, and we have improved the field dramatically," she said. "Our hope for the improvements we've made there, is that they can be enjoyed by other groups in the area for concerts or plays."
She said some have described the location as similar to "the hills of Judea."
"Jan Volk is the co-director and my right-hand man. I couldn't do this without her. It's as much her as me. And my husband has been so supportive all along," she said. The couple, both from Washington in Wilkes County, celebrated their 48th wedding anniversary this month. They have three children.
The residents of The Victory Home, a Christian recovery program for drug and alcohol addicted men in Tallulah Falls, volunteer their help every year.
"They are vital," she said. "We minister to them and they help meet our needs, so it's of mutual benefit to have this association with them."
The Rev. Doug Volk, the pastor at Dillard United Methodist Church, is the narrator, while the role of Jesus is handled by two men, Darren Volk of Clayton and Scott Holder of Cartersville.
As for the weather, they have had inclement weather only twice, but Murphy still encourages people to bring an umbrella and rain gear along with their lawn chairs.
The outdoor drama has continued to grow since the first one those many years ago.
"In my mind, it was a one-time event," she said, "but I see how much larger God's vision is."

I adore this Scenic Route paper. It comes with lots of chipboard embellies, stickers, letter stickers, die-cuts and paper. I was actually surprised at how much paper it came with! What's great about this kit is that it can be used for Halloween LOs, but some of the paper is just spunky and bright and could be used for just about anything! It's very versatile. The letters are awesome and definitely give a spooky vibe.
My first attempt at a Halloween layout came easily thanks to this collection. I love that they include all the chipboard pieces and the alphabet too. It will be very easy to re-use a lot of the elements in non-Halloween layouts. Awesome!
I love the colorful patterns that came with this kit. the embelishments were great also.iyou aren't limited to just halloween layouts with this kit. you get alot of useful ideas also.
You MUST get this pack!! It is so adorable. The colors are fab, and the chippie is awesome. Thisis one of my favorite collections so far!!

in blankstare news: Fire And Ice ... Cream
A Florida woman started a flurry over a McFlurry ... and set her boyfriend's car on fire.
Seems the couple began arguing inside McDonald's when the man refused to order a McFlurry for her. The onlooker said that the woman, whose name was not released, grabbed her companion's keys and said, "I'm going to blow it up."
She ran out to the parking lot, grabbed a can of gas out of the trunk and set the 1994 Cadillac ablaze before running off. The man waited until firefighters extinguished the flames, then drove off – but abandoned the vehicle a short distance away. (WTEV)

Windsor's Mill Island property, known to many as the old textile plant, is back on the open market.
After financial difficulties brought recent attempts to open retail and condo space in the historic building to a halt, developers Kevin Keefe and Terry Hines opted to relist the $3.1 million property.
Janet White of MacKay Real Estate, the agent tackling the sale of Mill Island, says potential buyers have expressed interest in the building that been in Hants County for more than 125 years.
"It's being looked at for main floor commercial retail development and upper floor condos, apartments or office buildings," White said.
"To try to pull this together, I think, is going to take some time… but you'll see a (sold) sign up there eventually."
Keefe, the owner of the Granite Brewery in Halifax, and Hines, the former owner of Hawboldt's Home Furniture in Windsor, envisioned the building restored for commercial and residential use, but ran into financial obstacles before all of the necessary renovations were completed. In January, Keefe told the Hants Journal negotiations were underway with two Maritime investors to give the stalled project the fiscal boost it needed for construction to resume this past summer. Instead, Mill Island is back on the market.
"It just didn't come out the way they wanted it to," White said.

DearSugar Needs Your Help: How Can I Get Out of My Slump?
DearSugar and In the Dumps Daria need your help. She's struggling with depression and is having a hard time meeting someone special. I offer my advice on how to meet men all the time, but what works for you? Hopefully hearing your success stories will help keep Daria's spirits high so she can break free from her relationship slump.
Dear Sugar,
I'm a 26-year-old woman who has been battling with serious depression for three years. I'm on medication and see a therapist regularly, and I have thankfully noticed an improvement in the last year. I feel in control of my emotions and am more hopeful about the future.
The one thing that really hasn't gotten better is my personal life. I haven't had a serious boyfriend in almost four years, and my feelings of loneliness really exacerbate my depression. I've tried dating but I just haven't found anyone compatible, and what's worse is that I go through periods of extreme discouragement. It's a terrible cycle — the depression makes it hard to meet someone, and meeting the wrong someone (or no one) makes my depression worse. Plus four long years of single life has made me fear being alone forever. I don't have low self-esteem, so how can I get myself out of this relationship slump? — In the Dumps Daria


text: In my mind, no way anybody can hate on these upcoming Nike Air Maxs, featuring colorways referencing some of Nike's all-time favorites in the Air Safari and Air Mowabb. For those who have never had the chance to grab a pair of Atmos x Nike Air Max 1 B, the Safari's are a more then suitable substitute. Allegedly within this pack is also the Air Stab Runnin' Gunnin'. According to Wellgosh, a release date is set for June 27th.

AN investigation has been launched into the cause of a huge fire at a waste management depot in North Yorkshire.
At its peak more than 60 firefighters battled the blaze at the Todd Waste Management site in Thirsk Industrial Park.
Water was pumped from Cod Beck to help extinguish the flames.
A plume of smoke was visible many miles from the blaze.
Crews were yesterday still damping down the two-acre area containing three large barns with bailed cardboard, paper and some plastic.
None of the 50 members of staff at the £1.5 million sorting plant was believed to have been at work at the time.
Richard Todd, managing director of F D Todd & Sons, said: "We are very relieved that no one was on site and there have been no injuries. Our staff reported for work as normal yesterday morning and will continue to be fully deployed managing the business from our other sites in Malton and York. Our business capacity at Thirsk will be restricted for some time but the business will continue to function as normal. We would like to reassure the local community in Thirsk that our site is fully secure and the area is safe."
After the fire started at around 7.20pm on Tuesday, local people were warned to keep their doors and windows shut. The police have confirmed that smoke from the fire was not toxic. Yesterday, a police cordon was put around the immediate scene of the fire.
John Smith, 74, of Sutton Road, watched from his balcony, which faces the industrial park. He said: "Some time after seven a large cloud of black smoke went up. I didn't see any flames but you could see a flickering below it. It grew and grew and drifted over our house. It went over in a black arch. It was something that one does not see every day. I think every fire engine in Yorkshire was there."
Another eye-witness, Katie Awdas, 30, said: "My husband and I live about two miles away. We looked out of the window and saw the plume of smoke. It was very surreal."

As the Iraq war continues, the vitriol from the left is getting even more hostile.
In fact, just days after a long-time member of Congress stood on the floor of the House claiming the president is amused by American soldiers having their heads blown off, media writer and Fox News contributor Neal Gabler strongly implied that he'd like the Weekly Standard's Bill Kristol to go to Iraq and die.
Here's the partial transcript of this unbelievable moment in television history from Saturday's "Fox News Watch" (h/t Hot Air, video available here):
I love so many critics of the press in Iraq, you know, can criticize the press, can criticize Lara Logan, and Richard Engel, and others who actually have their boots on the ground there. But I would like to see some of them like Bill Kristol go there, without a bodyguard, walk down the street. If he does so, I will make him this promise: I will attend his funeral.
Honestly, what is going on in this country?

The Killer
1989 (1998) - Magnum/Fox Lorber (Criterion)
review by Todd Doogan, special to
The Digital Bits
Film Rating: A+
Disc Ratings (Video/Audio/Extras): A-, B+, A-
Specs and Features
110 mins, NR, letterboxed widescreen (1.85:1), single-sided, single-layered, Amaray keep case packaging, theatrical trailer, deleted scenes, commentary by director John Woo and producer Terence Chang, film-themed menu screens, scene access (41 chapters), languages: Cantonese (DD mono), subtitles: English
If John Woo made a movie about stamp collecting, I'd watch it. Hell I'd be first in line. Years before anyone really knew about Hong Kong cinema, I'd hunker down with my copies of Tai Seng imported videos and marvel at his earlier work. Jeez Louise this guy can make a movie.
The Killer
may not be his absolute best film (that's a hard call between
Bullet In The Head
), but it is his most accessible and his most entertaining. Things explode, people get shot and, well, things explode. But it's never gratuitous. It means something to Woo, and when it's all said and done, it means something to the audience as well.
The Killer
follows a hit man named Jeff (the coolest star ever: Chow Yun Fat), as he pulls off one last job to help someone he accidentally hurt during a previous hit. The victim is Jennie, a beautiful singer who he is slowly falling in love with, and who he blinded when he shot his gun too close to her face during a hit (if that ain't love, then I dunno what is?). Hot on his trail is Inspector Li, a man who always gets his man. When the two aren't fighting each other, they're shooting black suited assassins who are trying to kill them both. I know it doesn't sound very intellectually stimulating, but it is. The characters are very deep, the banter is believable and everything just falls together so well.
Criterion did a great job with this disc. It was one of their first, but is still one of their best. The video is above average, bordering on superb. There is no noise to be found anywhere on the film. The sound is impeccable, placing the viewer in the dead center of swirling gunfire, explosions and boat chases. The commentary track, though hard to understand at some points due to thick accents, opens up the film. Woo and Terence Chang (his agent and producer) both understand each other so well, and you will too after listening to the track. Also included are a handful of deleted scenes that Woo felt bogged down the film, and he's right, they add no real heart to an already great story.
