This week Sutton councillors for the next four years will be chosen on Thursday's local elections. The Sutton Guardian brings you an overview of the main parties seeking your vote, and the smaller parties hoping to make a difference this time around.
Liberal Democrats - won 43 seats in 2010 (now has 41 councillors after one defection and one councillor having whip removed) - 48 per cent of the vote
Sutton Council leader Ruth Dombey
The Liberal Democrats have had control of Sutton Council since 1990 and polled almost half the vote at the last elections in 2010.
They are still the favourites to hold control of the council this year but they will see stiffer competition in wards all over the borough.
Council leader Councillor Ruth Dombey said the key points for her party are the continued fight to protect services at St Helier hospital, cutting unemployment, which she says is already low and will be driven down further by the planned life science cluster due to be built over the coming years, a plan to invest £19m into building affordable and social housing, and school building.
She added: "We're the only party working across all the borough. We've got councillors in all wards except one.
"I can't predict what will happen in the election because there are a lot of different parties, some we've never heard of, with candidates standing and this will have an effect.
"I do think it will be between the Liberal Democrats and the Conservatives again.
"What I will say is that it is really important that people come out and vote. Wards can be won and lost on just a handful of votes so we want people to come out and vote no matter who they vote for."
Conservatives - total seats won in 2010 - 11 (38 per cent of vote)
Councillor Graham Whitham
Sutton Council was run by a Conservative majority until 1986 but since then the Tories have been unable to regain control.
At the last council election they won 11 seats but are hopeful they can make gains on the Liberal Democrats next week.
Councillor Graham Whitham said they have a list of ten points they are campaigning on, these include protecting services at St Helier, school building, bringing Tramlink to the borough through increased cooperation with London Mayor Boris Johnson, improving standards in care homes and cracking down on crime and anti-social behaviour - and area in which Coun Whitham said the council has become "complacent".
He added: "When the Liberal Democrats are entrenched in an area it is the devil's own job to get them out.
"Nothing will be easy, this area was part of the 'orange triangle' with Kingston and Richmond - but things are changing.
"One thing I will make clear is that no other parties [than the Conservatives and the Liberal Democrats] will win seats. They may influence the outcome in wards, but they will not win seats."
Labour - seats at 2010 election - no seats (although gained a seat after Councillor John Keys defected from Liberal Democrats) - eight per cent of the vote
Councillor John Keys
Labour has not won any seats at the last two council elections but have gained a presence on the council since Councillor John Keys defected from the Liberal Democrats over his opposition to plans to build an incinerator in his Beddington ward.
In this year's election he is not standing in Beddington North but in St Helier instead - an area where Labour is optimistic of making inroads.
This year the Labour Party has 54 candidates spread over every borough for the first time in several years.
Coun Keys said: "The areas we're campaigning on are sorting out Sutton Housing Partnership, we've got the bedroom tax and the cost of living crisis that are affecting people all over Sutton, the incinerator for people in Beddington and Wandle Valley.
"We're hoping to make gains around Wandle Valley, Beddington North, St Helier, Sutton Central.
"When the Liberal Democrats [nationally] went into coalition with the Tories and broke the promise over tuition fees it damaged them, and then there's clause 119.
"If we able to win seats we will be able Labour values into the council. If we had that up to now it would have meant we could have had a proper debate on the incinerator. It would make it a lot easier for people to have a voice on the council and stop things being passed with just a nod from the Liberal Democrats."
Could the rise of UKIP and other smaller parties make a big difference?
In the last council election in 2010, parties other than the Liberal Democrats, Conservatives and Labour polled less than six per cent of the vote.
But this year, experts predict that will change thanks to the influence of the rising popularity of the UK Independence Party (UKIP) and the influence of other parties fielding candidates including the newly formed Keep Our St Helier Hospital (KOSHH) party and the Green Party.
In 2010, UKIP polled less than one per cent of the vote, but since then the party has increased in popularity. This year UKIP has 19 candidates standing and its local manifesto claims the party will reduce council tax, retain weekly bin collections and review traffic calming measures.
Among UKIP's candidates is prospective MP Bill Main-Ian, who will be standing in Beddington South.
The Green Party is fielding 18 candidates and one of its main campaign points is opposition to the plans to build an incinerator in Beddington.
KOSHH is a single issue party aiming to raise awareness of the threats facing St Helier Hospital. It is fielding four candidates around the borough.
Left wing organisation Trade Unionist and Socialist Coalition has four candidates standing. Its main policy is an objection to any council cuts.
Richard Edmonds is standing as an independent councillor in Worcester Park, although he has previously been affiliated with far right group the National Front, which is not fielding any candidates at this year's elections.
He said his main campaign point is opposition to plans to open a mosque in Worcester Park.
Nationalist party the English Democrats have one candidate, as does the Christian Peoples Alliance Party.

Acerca del libro
"The faces in this book are a reflection of strangers coming together,
united by purpose and passion, to attempt to build a better world, and
in the process a community was born.
The Occupy Eugene experience has taught many of us that we are not
alone, that we are not simply a spectator in the world we live in.
That we matter and what we do matters. We affirm this truth to each
More so It is true, that alone, each of us can do so little; but
together we can accomplish so much. The Occupy Eugene experience has
also taught us that it won't be easy. But it is better to struggle
together, than it is to struggle alone. It is better to celebrate
together, than it is to celebrate alone. Therefore through trials and
tribulations, perhaps Occupy Eugene's greatest contribution to a
better world has been it's creation of a community.
May the faces in these pages fill you with a vitality, a realness, and
a potency of what is possible in a community when people care and
believe in the power of change." - Peace, Love, Joy, Wisdom.

Would either of the bubly
Would either of the bubly moscatos be good as the basis for a Mimosa, or would they be too sweet for mixing with orange juice?
In honor of our country's birthday AND Wine Wednesday, this week is all about sparkling wine! Yesterday's trivia was about Spanish sparkling and today's Wine & Food Pairing Series is all about Sutter Home Bubbly Pink Moscato. Red White & Pink anyone? Scroll down for some fun trivia about sparkling wine!
With flavors of crisp melon, honey and mango, our Sutter Home Bubbly Pink Moscato makes the perfect accompaniment to grilled fig pizza, ham and crescent roll sandwiches, steak with almond & apricot sauce, cherry tomato angel hair pasta, chicken cordon bleu, light to mild cheeses, and peach cobbler.
Burger Pairing: Pineapple Upside-Down Burger
Didja know that sparkling wines were created completely by accident!? Way back when, while wine makers were fermenting their wine, winters got so cold that the fermentation stopped. When Spring came back around, the wine started to re-ferment, creating delicate bubbles along with it! This might be one of our favorite mistakes in wine history!
Would either of the bubly moscatos be good as the basis for a Mimosa, or would they be too sweet for mixing with orange juice?
Hi George – Our Bubbly Pink Moscato is slightly sweeter than our Bubbly Moscato (you can see both varietals' flavor profiles on our website: http://bit.ly/YssYbP), but we think that making a mimosa with Bubbly Pink Moscato would be a yummy twist on a brunch favorite! Let us know how you like it if you try making it.

An interesting side show is taking place at Paris's Palais de Tokyo during couture: Net-a-Porter is unveiling a new initiative involving five artists commissioned to make five one-off pieces of clothing, which you can think of as couture or art, depending, and which will be sold in September in New York – though whether they are to be worn or to be hung on a wall is unclear, as is the price. What is sure, however, is they will be very, very expensive. Take that, Moda Operandi and Farfetch and every other pretender to the throne!

Actress Michelle Yeoh has confirmed a sequel to martial arts classic Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon is in the works, 13 years after the original became a box office smash.
The movie, directed by Ang Lee, grossed more than $US213 million ($207.94 million) worldwide following its release in 2000, and rumours about a follow-up began surfacing last month.
Movie mogul Harvey Weinstein was said to be spearheading the project, with Chinese filmmaker Ronnie Wu in negotiations to take over the franchise from Lee.
Now Yeoh, who portrayed warrior Yu Shu Lien, says there have been talks about a second instalment centred around her character, but she's hesitant to officially sign up to the film just yet.
"It's early stages," the former Bond girl and Memoirs of a Geisha star tells Britain's Metro paper.
"It still depends on the script and who the director is, and it's never easy to make another movie after such an incredible classic but Crouching Tiger is a gem in my heart and always will be. So we will see."
Ang Lee, who also directed acclaimed films Brokeback Mountain and The Ice Storm, is in the running for Best Picture and Best Director awards at the Oscars for his latest film Life of Pi. The film has received 11 Academy Award nominations overall.

Topic: Hello and glad to find this forum!
What a blessing! I did a Google today for CC, not expecting to find anything new, and somehow found my way to this site...My husband, Tom, was finally diagnosed with CC after surgery to remove the tumor from his liver. In June he was diag. cancer of unknown primary and told there were no surgical options. His liver tumor was discovered on a CT scan for something else. To tell the story with all details would be exhausting for me now, but the short version is that after a try at Xeloda which produced no results, his oncologist referred him to a surgeon with a high reputation and years of experience doing liver surgery & this dr instead of saying "inoperable" said he was willing to give surgery a try if Tom was. He said due to the location and increasing size of the tumor, it would be a real challenge, and if he got inside and saw cancer spread beyond what he could take out, he would not continue the operation. So on Jan 10 when Tom went into the operating room, I knew that the longer he was in, the better the news would be. Four hours went by, then 4 1/2...Finally dr. came out with a smile and said, "I'm tired..." He said Tom was in for a long recovery, but he thought it was worth it; he got the tumor and also took out Tom's gallbladder which was full of stones. Fast forward...Tom was in intense pain for the first five of his 10 days in hospital, and was exhausted and confused for the next few weeks after coming home. He's finally able to drive, for the first time since surgery, yesterday when he took himself to the dr for follow up.
I am interested in your stories and glad that Tom's cancer finally has a name. "unknown primary" was so scary. Now that he's feelig better, he's positive the surgery was a good idea. Even if eventually he gets a recurrence, the pain in his abdomen is gone except for the incision pain. His undiagnosed gallbladder disease must have been the source of a lot of pain he had last fall.
From June to Sept last year, his scans showed no tumor growth even without treatment. He waited to start chemo until we had investigated options. After emails, paperwork and waiting he got a consultation with a research-affiliated cancer center. When they did scans, the drs who reviewed them told Tom, "In your body, this disease seems to be moving slowly." This was echoed again by the surgery follow-up Tom had yesterday. Dr. said instead of putting him on chemo, if the next scans show that "all is quiet" and "nothing lights up" that Tom should consider not going on chemo but concentrate on regaining weight and rebuilding muscle tone.
What we've learned is that despite ominous prognosis, every person is different, and that you must keep consulting and asking questions.
Thanks for reading, and I hope to get to know other folks here.

Amarista amazes, Smith slugs Friars to victory
Alonso's key hit helps set up teammates' heroics in win over Twins
MINNEAPOLIS -- As awful as it was missing 30 games with tendinitis in his right wrist recently, Padres first baseman Yonder Alonso shuddered at the prospect of how dire it would be if he returned too soon just to reinjure himself and miss even more time.
So he waited to heal, biding his time until he was healthy again.
"It [stinks] when you are out for a month like I was, but I had to make sure that I was healthy," Alonso said. "I had to make sure I was confident in myself and my approach. But now I'm healthy, and I feel normal again. I feel like I can make things happen."
He certainly has, as evidenced by the havoc Alonso created in this two-game series. He collected six hits, including a critical double in the ninth inning Wednesday that set the stage for the Padres' 5-4 comeback victory in 10 innings over the Twins at Target Field.
"That's a good sign," Padres manager Bud Black said. "He's fresh, everything with the gripping the bat is good, he feels good. He's one of the guys we need to continue his hitting."
Since coming off the disabled list July 26, Alonso is hitting .429 with four doubles, one triple, one home run and two RBIs. The sample size is small, but it's a start -- especially since Alonso began the season so slowly, hitting just .210 before landing on the disabled list on June 17.
Alonso's second double of the game, coming off Twins closer Glen Perkins, set the stage for the Padres (52-61) to tie the game in the ninth inning, as Everth Cabrera fought back from an 0-2 count for a game-tying sacrifice fly.
One inning later, Seth Smith hit a home run off Twins reliever Anthony Swarzak (2-1) to put the Padres on top for good.
But just getting to Smith's at-bat wasn't easy, as the Padres survived a wild sequence in the bottom of the ninth inning. Rookie reliever Kevin Quackenbush (2-2) had runners on first and second with two outs when Eduardo Escobar jumped on a fastball, driving it to center field.
Alexi Amarista, playing shallow in case of a play at the plate, retreated and made a fine running catch to end the inning, saving the game and allowing the Padres a chance to win the game in extra innings.
"I was climbing over the rail, to be honest with you. I thought for sure [the ball would fall in]. He was playing really shallow, too," Twins second baseman Brian Dozier said. "But that guy is a burner out there, and he made a great play. He pretty much won the game for them. We all thought for sure it was game-winning."
Tommy Medica had two hits for the Padres and knocked in a run. Jedd Gyorko had a run-scoring double, as well.
It was another rough outing for Padres rookie pitcher Odrisamer Despaigne, who allowed four runs on eight hits in 5 2/3 innings with three walks and five strikeouts.
Despaigne allowed a two-run home run to Trevor Plouffe in the first inning. Plouffe got him again in the sixth for an RBI single, breaking a 3-3 tie.
"[He was leaving the ball up.] He's got to get the ball down," Black said.

Science and Politics
Matt Welch's description of science and politics strikes a chord
Even more interesting than the soft consensus in favor of government intervention was a strong undercurrent that those who disagreed with it were guilty of denying basic truths. One of the questions from an audience full of Senate staffers, policy wonks, and journalists was how can we even have a rational policy discussion with all these denialist Republicans who disregarded Daniel Patrick Moynihan's famous maxim that "Everyone is entitled to his own opinion, but not his own facts"? Jared Bernstein couldn't have been more pleased.
"I feel like we're in a climate in which facts just aren't welcome," he said. "I think the facts of the case are that we know what we can do to nudge the unemployment rate down.…I think the consensus among economists is that this is a good time to implement fiscal stimulus that would help create jobs and make the unemployment rate go down. I consider that a fact."
In science, you insist most loudly on a fact based on how much it has withstood independent peer review. In politics, it's closer to the opposite—the more debatable a point is, the more it becomes necessary to insist (often in the face of contrary evidence) that the conclusion is backed by scientific consensus

Hotels Florence Italy
Orto de' Medici perform an important status from a historical point of view between all hotels in Florence Italy.
Its inner garden, indeed, has been the backdrop for the first encounter between Michelangelo and its former patron Lorenzo de' Medici.
From here began the ascent of the bright career of what we now know as a genius.
This romantic hotel Florence Italy is nestled right in the vibrant center of Florence, but an amazing quietness hides it to the bustling.
Here, a genuine Florentine hospitality will welcome guests: every member of the staff takes terrific pride to take care of Florence visitors.
No doubt the secluded Garden ("Orto" in ancient Italian) is the heart of one of the most spellbinding hotels in Florence Italy.
The eighteenth century ambiances and the original frescos have been finely restored in order to return the noble mansion to its former elegance.
At the hub of our Florence hotel, the restored Terrace is the perfect place to relax during Spring and Summer time while sipping a cocktail.

But then I felt to speak in a different tone.The things stated here about Adina and her contributions to spreading EA are true. But she was not about public praise. She did it because she cared, and loved EA and Wolf, and because she could, and because she felt it was the right thing for her to do.I think her illness began almost seven years ago. It has not been easy for her. Yet she used that time to do her inner work. She broke the back of some repeating patterns she let me know she'd been told she's struggled with for a number of lifetimes. She withdrew increasingly from the outer world (by necessity) and focused ever more on God within. She started having illuminating inner experiences that changed her, and led to breaking the back of those old patterns. (By breaking the back I mean, they are not completely gone - old tendencies die hard - but her relationship to those old patterns changed so much, through developing new healthy patterns, that the old ones will never again control her as they were able to before).She struggled these past years, in Ohio, due to the nature of consciousness in Ohio. She had little mobility - she spent the last years breathing oxygen 24 hours a day, an oxygen bottle and a 40 foot hose her constant companions. She had very few people in her life who could understand the inner place she came from, thus she was forced back on herself again and again, a sometimes lonely experience. Within those circumstances, she advanced herself spiritually. That to me is her truest personal legacy - she demonstrated what is possible in conditions most people would say sucked. She didn't complain much, she accepted the conditions as much as possible and used them to move towards God.Her children deserve a lot of thanks. I don't know her daughter but her daughter was always there for her through all of this. Her son Doug had his mom living in his house for seven years. His kindness and openness to talking with his mom about deeper things made a huge difference in her life, and created the space in which her inner changes and experiences could occur. (Seeing her son advance himself helped her feel she was fulfilling the truest function of a mom.) Doug is an EA student (at times) and I hope his mom's passing will encourage him to become more consistently involved in EA.In this case for me sadness isn't really the appropriate emotion. Adina went through a great deal. We thought she would be gone years ago, many times in fact. When I was informed she was back in hospice two days ago, I felt her Soul deeply, a true inner connection, to the degree I wondered if she had just passed and was hanging out with me for a few minutes on her way out. But I was wrong. Now that she passed this morning, I feel her truly gone, and I mean gone. She is not hanging around Earth at all. It feels like she flew out of here like a rocket. Finally.Let us hope she has earned her spiritual "reward" for all she's been through and done. She never did any of it seeking any return for herself. She did it because it was right for her, because her heart yearned for it, and because she finally experienced enough suffering and bullshit that she started facing her inner reality and began making difficult changes that are necessary for creating different outcomes. She genuinely tried to live the natural God life as best as she could.

EA was a labor of divine love for her and I'm sure she'd want me to share this.For those wanting to explore further the astro significances involved in her transition, her passing occurred at 5:45am in Fairlawn, Ohio, USA. (if it's super-important, I'm gonna give that 5:45 a plur or minus 3 minutes. I may not be an astrologer, but I lived with one long enough to remember to pay attention to these kind of things! lol (I'd also love to hear any astro thoughts on this since my in-house astrologer is vacationing on the astral plane for a while )I won't go into detail about the WHOLE two-day experience. Suffice it to say, that we felt very confident that she was as comfortable as could be through it. The passing itself was truly a divine event to witness and be part of. She wasn't materially conscious at the end, but I could feel her working through the final details of departure, in some sense. The peace that came over her in the end was... well, I'm not going to fake a word here... it was God, his grace and his light, firsthand, delivering exactly what she deserved.The blessing of being allowed to care for her... And being shown the true face of God in the process has been most beautiful, rewarding, inspirational experience of my life. The love and light she shared with everyone around her goes beyond inspiration and was nothing short of divine. Her courage, resolve and grace in the face of what most would consider and absolutely shitty deal was awe-inspiring. I couldn't be happier for her to feel the sweet release from that tortured mortal coil. I know we have walked this place together before and I know we shall again.Please know that she loved & valued all of you deeply, and appreciated your friendship to no end. I feel like I know a lot of you from our conversations and want to also offer my heartfelt thanks and love for the being the kind of human beings that let the love of God shine through them.Many Blessings and Much Love,Doug Pfeifer Logged Upasika Very Active Member Offline Posts: 411 Re: OUR GREAT FREIND TO EA ADINA MATHER HAS PASSED ON .... « Reply #12 on: Jul 19, 2012, 01:00 AM » I never met you Adina but I certainly felt your presence, my love to you, Upasika Logged PatriciaW Active Member Offline Posts: 86 Re: OUR GREAT FREIND TO EA ADINA MATHER HAS PASSED ON .... « Reply #13 on: Jul 19, 2012, 06:11 AM » Doug , Thank you for sharing and please accept my condolences on your loss. Even when we have spiritual awareness, and certainty that our loved one is well taken care of,we also have human emotions that do feel loss..and rightfully so. Embrace your grief as a sacred act that honors her spirit. It is a real blessing for both of you (as you mention) that you were with her at the end. In some traditions they say that blessed souls get the honor to die surrounded by their loved ones. If you think about all the ways we could pass to the other side this really rings true. Blessings to you Doug...and deep wishes for comfort and grace to stay by your side !!!

Josh has the keys to the blog tonight as I always try to take the last game off before the start of a road trip. Be nice to him.
<img src="http://mets.lohudblogs.com/files/2008/04/images.jpeg" align="right" height="132″ width="133″ />
Nelson Figueroa's feel-good story continues tonight, and it will feel even better if he pitches the way he did last Friday against Milwaukee. On the plus side, Jose Reyes and Carlos Beltran are starting to hit. On the down side, Carlos Delgado is sliding.
Roughly three weeks into the season, how is the ball club playing in your eyes?

I THOUGHT Gary Bowyer was very clever in giving Jordan Rhodes a rest last weekend against Manchester City.
I thought it was a great idea – and it certainly worked out all right!
Jordan is so important to Blackburn – you can see that by the fact that he plays every league game for them.
But the FA Cup tie was the perfect time to give him a break.
It will have also given the rest of the players confidence, knowing that if Jordan is not in the team, they can still get a result against a side as good as City.
As a player if you're struggling, there can be the danger of thinking, 'let's just get the ball to Jordan and he will get us a goal', as his record is so good.
But he can't do it every week, it's impossible.
I'm sure he will be champing at the bit for tomorrow's home match with Doncaster.
Blackburn need to go out there, get into them straight away and be ruthless.
An early goal would really knock the stuffing out of Doncaster as they're not in good form.
Against teams like that an early goal really puts them under pressure and it is a test of how they handle it.
And Rovers should certainly be confident.
It was a great result against Manchester City – you only have to see what they did to West Ham on Wednesday night in the Capital One Cup to see that.
Blackburn proved me completely wrong because, if I'm being honest, I never thought they would be able to get the draw that they did.
And I would imagine 99.9 per cent of the Rovers fans were feeling the same way.
It must be a great confidence boost for the players and, with Rovers just two points off the play-off places, they must be feeling good.
Take away the City game and the last couple of home games haven't brought good results.
So Rovers have to take the form they shown against City into the game against Doncaster.
The bread and butter is your league form and if Blackburn get that right, they could yet be playing the likes of City week in and week out in the top flight.

Q & A — July 2003
By Capt. Ken Kreisler
Avoiding Fuel Drool
| Part
2: Addressing flaking bottom paint, keeping fenders clean
During a recent haul-out
I noticed a patch of flaking antifouling paint on the otherwise clean
bottom of my boat. What could have caused this, and what can I do to fix
it? T.P., via e-mail
First remove all flaking paint. I suggest using a flexible plastic paint scraper instead of a metal one to make sure you don't scratch or gouge the fiberglass. A few criss-crossing strokes over the area should remove most of it. Next sand the patch with 80-grit sandpaper to get any remaining flakes, making sure you go about two inches beyond the perimeter of the affected area. Then wipe down the area with a clean rag and paint thinner to remove any sanding residue. To determine if there's any contaminant present, pour a bucket of water over the area. If it beads instead of sheeting, you need to sand some more. Once the surface is clean and dry, apply two coats of bottom paint.
I've got some
rather stubborn stains on several of my fenders. I was thinking of using
acetone to get them off. Is this a good solution? B.W., via e-mail
You're better off using a product designed specifically for this purpose. I've had good results with products such as Star brite's fender cleaner, a good-quality hand-held scrub brush, and some arm power. Once you've got the fenders clean, keep them that way with a quick cleaning at the first sign of staining.

In non-religious societies, wealth has always been the symbol of power and respect and it has been among the major goals that people strive for throughout their lives. One of the reasons for this is that people without faith believe that they will only be truly happy if they are wealthy. They think that they can only secure their possessions and achieve comfort, ease and the beautiful things they like in this way. For this reason, they spend their whole lives amassing property and possessions, saving money and making the right investments. They worry that their possessions will be used up and so they do not make use of them, they avoid spending money at all costs and do everything they can to preserve their wealth.
But in the life of this world, a person's wealth will not bring him the pleasure he expects no matter how hard he works for it. It may give him comfort in some ways, but in this flawed and imperfect world wealth is also flawed and imperfect. The Arabic word dunya (world) is derived from the word dani which means "low, inferior, simple, worthless."
A reason why Allah created the world flawed, and as a transitory place is to allow people to appreciate better the good things of the Garden. For example, if a person who has lived in poverty since childhood is invited to a home with magnificent furniture and priceless works of art, decorated with precious stones, and is offered rare foods to eat, he would be struck by the beauty of the place. Doubtless, this person's delight would be much greater than that of someone who has lived in such an environment since childhood. Our position in this world is similar to that of a person brought up in poverty and want. But even the world's wealthiest person is poor in comparison to the riches of the Garden. And, in this world, a person can never attain this true wealth. Even the richest person in the world will finally be wrapped in a few metres of cloth or put into a coffin and buried in the ground, leaving all his wealth behind. Allah tells us in the Qur'an that the blessings of the world are transitory:
The metaphor of the life of the world is that of water which We send down from the sky, and which then mingles with the plants of the earth to provide food for both people and animals. Then, when the earth is at its loveliest and takes on its fairest guise and its people think they have it under their control, Our command comes upon it by night or day and We reduce it to dried-out stubble, as though it had not been flourishing just the day before! In this way We make Our Signs clear for people who reflect. (Surah Yunus: 24)
The wealth of the Garden, unlike the wealth of this world, is an everlasting wealth that people will experience in their hearts and with their bodies and senses, without worrying that it will ever come to an end. This verse in the Qur'an tells us about the beautiful wealth of the Garden: "Seeing them, you see delight and a great kingdom." (Surat al-Insan: 20)
The wealth of the Garden is a harmony containing the artistry of Allah's endless bounty and dazzling splendour. All of this beauty is presented in such a way as to fulfil the believers' passions and desires, because it is only when wealth is turned into beauty in this way that it can give meaning to the human spirit.
The beauty of the places in the Garden, apart from their aesthetic qualities, comes from the value of the materials used to decorate them. In a hadith, our Prophet replied to someone who asked about what materials the Garden is built from:
One brick of gold and one brick of silver, its mortar is of strongly scented musk, its stones are pearls and emeralds, and its soil is of saffron … (Narrated by Abu Hurayra, at-Tirmidhi)
The wealth promised to the people of the Garden is limitless; it is in abundance, and there is no worry that it will ever be used up.

|Imam Muhammad Bakr and Imam Jaffar Sadik said this about Hazrat Mahdi's (as) followers: "They will take over the east and west. EACH WILL BE AS POWERFUL AS FORTY PEOPLE. THEIR HEARTS ARE LIKE IRON. SO MUCH SO THAT THE WORDS 'THERE IS NO DEITY BUT ALLAH AND MUHAMMAD IS HIS MESSENGER' WILL BE ECHOED AND HEARD EVERYWHERE." (Bihar al-Anwar, Vol. 52, p. 340)
Hazrat Mahdi's (as) followers will be men and women, made up of high quality, superior and effective people in good spiritual and physical condition, and each one will be perfect in terms of preaching power. With all these features, Hazrat Mahdi's (as) followers will have a striking appearance.
By the virtue of this preaching power of theirs, the impact of Hazrat Mahdi (as) and his followers will bring about a mass, global turning to faith. They will praise the name and glory of Allah everywhere and the moral values of Islam will rule the world.
The words "the words 'There is no deity but Allah and Muhammad is His Messenger' will be echoed and heard everywhere," indicate that Hazrat Mahdi's (as) preaching of Islamic moral values will be constantly be on the agenda everywhere, on the Internet, on radio and television, in newspapers and magazines.

Go Girls, Channel Ten, 9.30pm
THIS episode is titled ''Love Hurts'' and it is, indeed, painful. Kevin is laid up on the couch with a broken arm, beset by crippling headaches. Hardly surprising, given he is surrounded by a bevy of babbling babes, but it is not their incessant chatter that pains him. His cerebral agony is compounded, and possibly caused, by scantily clad caregivers who fret and fawn while he is in no position to exploit their maternal urges. Oh, it's hard to imagine oneself in a worse spot than being stuck on that couch - unless it's being stuck on one's own couch watching this double serving of Go Girls.
Young James Herriot, ABC1, 8.20pm
DESCRIBED as ''a dramedy prequel'' to All Creatures Great and Small, this bucolic veterinary romp follows the ''loveably bumbling'' Herriot as he works his way through Glasgow Veterinary College in the 1930s. The ugly word ''dramedy'' smacks of a shotgun marriage of competing interests and, as such, is an apt description of this bumbling but not necessarily loveable barnyard frolic. BBC Scotland delivers in spades when it comes to reproducing the filth and muck of Depression-era British agriculture - the sheer wretchedness of eking a living from animals on a windswept heath, where a few contagious cows among the herd can mean financial ruin.
Real Humans, SBS One, 9.30pm
REAL Humans assumes that in Sweden, in the not-too-distant future, it will be possible to buy a robot so similar in appearance and behaviour to a human that these anthropoid devices quickly become a slave race of androids, or in this case ''hubots''. They take on the roles of pets, domestic staff and sex toys, leading to much soul-searching on the part of those people not too busy hanging out at the deeply sleazy Hubot Heaven, paying a few crowns for intimate sessions with electric strippers.
Hunted, SBS One, 8.30pm
FROM sick cows to sick minds - and there is nothing ''dramedic'' about Hunted. On the contrary, this could do with a little light relief. If you take out the sex, violence, car accidents and bloodlust, little remains except the scheming duplicity and sadistic leanings of just about everyone involved. The overly twisted plot centres on the precarious life of Sam (Melissa George), a spy who finds herself dodging bullets, rapacious men and evil corporate conspirators. It doesn't much matter that you have no real idea what's going on; it's all extremely serious and deeply menacing, and there are no nice people to distract you into caring about what happens to them, just abject weirdos and fornicating fruit cakes with guns, fists and alluring breasts. Blam!
Sunday, December 9
Homeland, Channel Ten, 8.30pm
WITH the pointy end of Homeland's second season looming, incidents pile up at a frenetic pace tonight (echoes of 24). Though we know that Abu Nazir is still - again? - on the loose and that Saul is getting close to exposing the sinister Quinn's real purpose, ''Broken Hearts'' blindsides us, yet again, with unseen plot developments that speak to the theme of retribution, redemption and faith. It's not one of the most satisfying episodes of the show so far, with several lapses of logic and plausibility, insufficient time spent setting up crucial situations and a long-awaited confrontation that is spoiled with heavy-handed speechifying. But the writers and actors of Homeland seem to know exactly where it is they are taking us - Brody's thawing marriage is enacted in one brilliant, brief single scene tonight - and most fans will be happy to put themselves in their hands.
The Manor Reborn: series premiere, ABC1, 7.30pm
PART Time Team, part home-renovation show, The Manor Reborn, presented by Penelope Keith and Paul Martin of the BBC's antiques program Flog It!, is so utterly British I had a smile on my face almost immediately. Keith seems to have hardly changed from her days on To the Manor Born, and I can only assume she would feel quite at home in a true manor house. Charming, lovely people attend to the disused and dilapidated 500-year-old Avebury Manor in the thoroughly English county of Wiltshire. The central question is whether those responsible for the restoration should ''do it up'' with a bit of pizazz or stick to a traditional vision that might be more suitable but certainly less daring. It's a simple premise but a pleasing one, highlighting just how beautiful the English countryside can be when the sky is blue and the sun is shining. Charmed, I'm sure.
Freddie Mercury: The Great Pretender, ABC2, 8.30pm
WHAT is most immediately striking from this documentary is how intelligent and endearing Freddie Mercury could be, not to mention what a great musician and songwriter he was. In this age of manufactured and overly orchestrated pop ''artists'', it is wonderful to watch a wholly personally constructed pop star who had the talent and the voice to warrant the kudos. If you think it's important that a singer be able to do the things in concert that they do in the studio, Mercury could do that and more. With his sensationally camp histrionics and powerfully charismatic stage presence, he - like few before or since - could play to an arena of 100,000 people and have each person in the palm of his hand. This documentary charts Mercury's life, and we see how he became ambivalent about his role in Queen and wanted to pursue other challenges, such as becoming an opera singer. This is not just for the fans - he will rock you.
The Pillars of the Earth: series premiere, ABC1, 8.30pm
DEATH, treachery and despair are all around. The Middle Ages in England were a notoriously tough time to be alive. In Ken Follett's The Pillars of the Earth, it certainly appears to be so for all involved. From rollicking highs to devastating lows, all emotions are traversed with rapid ease; each character performs dutifully in his or her role. No matter their poverty or class, everyone has lovely hair. This fast, emotive and stylistically well-made program will suit those who like to be transported to a far more dangerous time from the safety of one's living room.

NEW YORK (AP) -- Stocks are closing sharply lower after investors delivered their verdict on disappointing job growth in March. It's only the second four-day losing streak of the year for the Dow Jones industrial average and the Standard & Poor's 500.
The Dow finished down 130 points at 12,929, its first close below 13,000 since March 12. The S&P is ending the day off 16 points at 1,382. The Nasdaq composite closed down 33 at 3,047.
The country added 120,000 jobs in March, about half the pace from December through February. Markets were closed Friday, so Monday was investors' first chance to respond.
Volume was light at 3.1 billion shares. Declining stocks outnumbered advancers by about 4-to-1 on the New York Stock Exchange.

DARBYOTHRULL - Tuesday, February 04, 2014 - linkI wonder how well this would work as a Steam streaming box. It can't run SteamOS due to a 64 bit requirement, but it can run Linux/Windows. Reply
Vepsa - Tuesday, February 04, 2014 - linkI'm more thinking the Gigabyte as a small storage server. Cut the end of the PCIe slot out & populate it with a SATA/SAS card (from the pics it looks like it will have no problem with at least an 8x card fitting in) and put a mini-PCIe SATA card in for more storage. Then add 8GB of RAM,some HDDS & boot FreeNAS off a thumb drive and it should do fairly well. Reply
The_Assimilator - Tuesday, February 04, 2014 - linkRather get a PCIe x1 extender and cut the end off that, that way you don't void the warranty on the board.
This CPU/board is looking very promising for a fileserver. I'd like to see some performance numbers though, especially against the current cream of the low-end crop, the G465. I have one of the latter and it's slow as molasses (probably mostly due to the single physical core) so anything that feels more responsive is better in my books. Reply
ddriver - Tuesday, February 04, 2014 - linkWith 2 S-ATA - very unlikely, plus there are atom boards dedicated to such workloads, like this one: http://www.asrock.com/server/overview.asp?Model=C2...
Octa core atom, 12 S-ATA, dual gigabit lan, 64 gigs of ram max and even a x8 PCI-E slot. This is a server board, those boards in the article are good for living room media boxes and nothing else. Reply
BMNify - Tuesday, February 04, 2014 - linkthats true ,i found them to be around £300 +VAT for the octacore but its a shame Intel do not include their generic AVX/2 blocks in all their cores today so there's no incentive to actually optimize all the apps you would run there for far better SIMD data throughput or id try them today, at least Linaro are optimizing all the apps one by one for NEON SIMD as standard, we shall see what happens this year with their 64bit cores Reply
ddriver - Tuesday, February 04, 2014 - linkI think atom still has SIMD, just not as wide and capable as those of the desktop and laptop cores, but that's the price you pay for better power efficiency. Something comparable to the previous (current market) generation of NEON.
And at any rate, at a data server, you'd rarely need to crunch that much data, especially considering hardware on-board encryption/decryption, hashing, packet offloading and such are usually present. Obviously this is a narrow market, much more narrow than 1 or 2 CPU servers and workstations, which come with all AVX bells and whistles and even possibly multiple phi. Reply
BMNify - Tuesday, February 04, 2014 - linki would hold much potential in the phi just yet even if you have a need for
32x 8 bit integer
16x 16 bit integer
8x 32 bit integer
4x 64 bit integer
plain 256 bit as per current AVX2 and its assumed they will double these for their 512bit AVX3.1
the generic current CoreLink CCN-508 NOC can deliver up to 1.6 terabits of sustained usable system bandwidth per second with a peak bandwidth of 2 terabits per second (256 GigaBytes/s) at processor speeds scaling all the way up to 32 processor cores total..... at least on paper
Intel's Knights Landing Xeon Phi due in 2015 with its antiquated QPI interconnect and its expected ultra short-reach (USR) interconnection only up to 500MB/s data throughput seems a little/lot short on real data throughput by then, Intel seem to need to go to Wide IO/HMC and a far better ultra short-reach interconnect to their GDDR5 high latency ultra short-reach (USR) ram ASAP it seems....
"Intel is not saying precisely what processor socket the future Knights Landing chip will slip into, but the most obvious one is the socket shared by the Xeon E5 of the time. All that Hazra would confirm was that the idea is to deploy 14-nanometer processes to cram more transistors onto the Knights Landing chip and to get around some of the bottlenecks with the PCI-Express 3.0 bus that current coprocessors of any kind are adversely affected by."
"He would not discuss if memory for the future Xeon Phi would link in over the QuickPath Interconnect or by some other means, but he did say that Intel would be stacking the memory onto the processor package and that Knights Landing would have "leadership compute and memory bandwidth".
so again that would probably be HMC style 2.5D Reply
DanNeely - Tuesday, February 04, 2014 - linkQPI is not an antiquated bus just because it was only used in a single generation of consumer parts prior to bringing the north bridge onto the CPU itself. It's still used on Xeon's released this year as the multi-socket interconnect bus. Reply
BMNify - Tuesday, February 04, 2014 - linkin your opinion, sure, however calling http://www.chiphell.com/data/attachment/forum/2012...
2 QPI interconects giving a max total throughput of just 51.2 GB/s, and Intel restructuring the platform in such a way that the on board network interface controllers will now be wired to the PCI-Express so called by PR "root complexes" of the processors, rather than the chipset so as to try and remove some of that traffic from interfering with the core antiquated interconnects. Reply
BMNify - Tuesday, February 04, 2014 - linkcalling 2 QPI interconects giving a max total throughput of just 51.2 GB/s not antiquated in 2014 for the best Intel have in generic x86 server land (never mind retail) seems odd when you consider that LSI Axxia® 4500 Family of ARM SOC NOC (network On Chip) gives you upto 256 GigaBytes/s Reply
fade2blac - Tuesday, February 04, 2014 - linkI'm currently using a Celeron 847 (Sandy Bridge) ITX board for an Open Media Vault server and these BayTrail boards look to offer a slight bump to efficiency and value proposition at the cost of a few features. This could pass as a basic file server, but as you note it would require some level of customization.
My wishlist features for a new low power/low cost server are ECC support, external 12~19V power input instead of the ATX 24&4 pin connectors, at least 4 SATA ports, and USB 3. File servers with any sort of RAID and many TB's of storage really should consider ECC. Also, for a system that draws maybe 15-20W total, the ATX power supply options in this power range are pretty much just PicoPSUs. Any typical SFF/FlexATX or standard power supplies will be incredibly inefficient at such a low load.
I would love to see an Avoton Atom (C2530 or C2550) or Bay Trail-I Atom (E3845) variant which would be a much better fit for a small server. Avoton would lose USB 3 and require some form of onboard graphics solution but adds more PCI-E lanes, more SATA ports (C2550 only), multiple integrated Intel NICs, and AES-NI support. I look forward to the seeing the results of Anandtech's Avoton testing (possibly an ASRock or Supermicro board with a C2750?), but the boards I have seen are in the ~$275-400 price range. Single-threaded performance is possibly a slight regression from low power Ivy Bridge/Haswell Celerons. A comparison of these Silvermont-based CPUs against one on more of the 847, 1037U, 1047UE (has ECC), 2955U, and/or 2980U Celerons would be very helpful in assessing IPC vs multi-threaded throughput. Reply
know of fence - Tuesday, February 04, 2014 - linkNow why would file servers need error correcting RAM? - Any copy errors are caught by the file transfer protocols. Are you worried about general server stability, or do you plan to use that 10 W CPU to transcode files.? Reply
BMNify - Tuesday, February 04, 2014 - link;) you have never tried SD encoding on an A9 dual cortex with the ARM port of FFMpeg i take it ! it works quite well with the right batch file lines to MP4 containers using the -maxrate 2100k -bufsize 2100k -refs 3 -preset faster directives. Reply
fade2blac - Tuesday, February 04, 2014 - linkMy current home server acts not only as a typical NAS (Samba, FTP, rsync, SSH), but also runs Plex Media Server, MythTV backend, VirtualBox, MySQL, and eventually zoneminder or similar. Server stability is generally adequate without ECC, but long-term, robust data integrity is more critical. Like everyone, I have files such as pictures, financial records, etc. which are irreplaceable. Yes, protocols can catch and usually resolve errors at the transport level, but that is only part of the data path.
On the storage end, another data risk is silent corruption (aka. bit rot) of data stored on disks.
I have elected to use SnapRAID to implement block-level checksums (mitigate bit rot) and shared parity (recover from drive failures) that operates on top of standard file systems. However, there is still a potential gap in the integrity of the data path. If something is buffered/cached/active in RAM there is still a very small, but real chance that a bit could flip and then get written to my storage pool. No manner of RAID, ZFS, etc. will catch this. The file will be permanently corrupted and must be restored from another backup copy if available. This is where ECC provides value. Reply
Gigaplex - Tuesday, February 04, 2014 - linkBecause the OS uses RAM as a filesystem cache and you don't want it to have bogus data. Especially when it comes to writing data back to the filesystem. One of my RAM sticks started failing on me and caused some minor data corruption a couple of months back. It's very weird running md5sum on the same file 3 times in a row and getting 3 separate results. Reply
fic2 - Tuesday, February 04, 2014 - link"external 12~19V power input instead of the ATX 24&4 pin connectors"
- I second this! An external PS would be much better for this power sipping setup. Reply
DanNeely - Tuesday, February 04, 2014 - linkThat'd be a nice to have; in the mean time you can accomplish the same thing with a pico-PSU and an external brick. Reply
ShieTar - Wednesday, February 05, 2014 - linkWhy cut? You can get up to 8 SATA II ports on a native PCIe x1 card. And its not like this CPU will be fast enough to worry about the controller speed.
Then again, whats the point of a low-power SFF board if you add a power-consuming additional controller put it in a case with half a dozen HDDs? For the same money, and in basically the same power and space envelopes, you can just get yourself a µATX board with 6 native SATA ports and a Haswell-Celeron with a lot more computing power for your more complex storage needs.

mczak - Tuesday, February 04, 2014 - linkIn fact all Bay Trail cpus are 64bit capable.
(Though the z atom platforms such as the transformer t100 came with 32bit uefi bios so far which made it more or less impossible to use in 64bit mode even with linux, but I'm pretty sure these here shouldn't have any such problems, they officially also support windows 64bit). Reply
plupien79 - Tuesday, February 04, 2014 - linkThat's a perfect machine for XBMC ala OpenELEC
if it came with dual Intel NICs it'd be an epic router board Reply
iamkyle - Tuesday, February 04, 2014 - linkI'd argue that you could put an Intel gigabit NIC in the free slot and use the mPCIe for wireless and you'd easily have a router that could top the best offerings from ASUS, Netgear, etc. Reply
Metaluna - Tuesday, February 04, 2014 - linkProblem is, some router distros like PFsense are pretty far behind in supporting the newer Intel NICs (and even worse for wireless NICs). So you might end up having to add a dual PCIe NIC card anyway, which then rules out a lot of really compact mini-ITX cases like the Mini-Box M350. Reply

Flunk - Tuesday, February 04, 2014 - linkThe motherboard manufacturer is doing nothing of the kind, this SOC only supports 2 SATA ports, 2 PCI-E and DDR3L. There isn't anything they can do about that. Remember, is a tiny little cut-rate chip. It's amazing that they can bundle a CPU and motherboard of any kind for ~$60, let alone one that is actually capable of running desktop applications and Windows. Reply
DanNeely - Tuesday, February 04, 2014 - linkIt's worth mentioning that the single USB3 port is also an SoC limit. Reply
stepz - Wednesday, February 05, 2014 - linkLooks like Intel is extremely worried about causing damage to their regular desktop market to release a product this crippled. This artificial market segmentation is what you get when you don't have competition. Lets hope one of the ARM vendors will force their hand to release more useful chips. Reply
xdrol - Tuesday, February 04, 2014 - linkThe SoC does support 64 bit (unlike the early Atoms), and Gigabyte only provides 64 bit Win8 drivers - I guess SteamOS should work. Reply
Penti - Wednesday, February 05, 2014 - linkBoth of the boards only supports 64-bit Windows 8, both has 64-bit UEFI. GNU/Linux shouldn't be much of an issue. That Bay-Trail-M doesn't have drivers is because Windows doesn't yet support connected standby on 64-bit versions. Reply
damianrobertjones - Friday, February 07, 2014 - linkWhy? Why not simply install Windows and get straight to the point! Reply
andrewaggb - Tuesday, February 04, 2014 - linkUnfortunately it needs either more sata ports or a raid card, or more network ports or a network card. There is an expansion slot, so it's not a deal breaker, but if it had dual nic's and more sata ports built in, it could be a real interesting file server or router for cheap. Reply
Kevin G - Tuesday, February 04, 2014 - linkI'd be nice if these boards had a full sized PCI-e 16x slot even if electrically they were only 1x. Far from ideal but it opens up so much expansion.
Similarly, I'd have liked to see full sized DIMM slots.
And the last thing on my wish list is mounting holes for socket 115x coolers. Not that I'd really want to overclock these Baytrail systems but rather they provide more variety.
Then again these boards are ~$60 with a processor so those compromises can be seens as tolerable given this price segment. Reply
Flunk - Tuesday, February 04, 2014 - linkYou can cut the plastic of the slot at the rear edge to accommodate larger cards if you like. Reply
HardwareDufus - Tuesday, February 04, 2014 - linkYou all are funny. It's a $60 board/cpu combo capable of running 64bit Windows.... but you all expect it to be tricked out and accomplish superhuman feats. It's a Budget SOC. If it doesn't suit your needs, it's because it's not marketed/created for you. So spend $100 on something else. Big deal. Reply

(ark.intel.com pricing) they are $10 and $22 more respectively than the J1800 but give 2x cores, 2x cache at the same TDP.
At such a meager price difference, Intel would be better off ditching dual core CPUs altogether. Not just for the price difference but also for programming, to encourage the transition to multi-threaded apps.
At the price for this though, it is pretty cool for what you get. It's actually faster than my 6 year old desktop that has a much higher TDP CPU. Reply

Build A Place for Young People in Ecuador to Grow in Faith and Maturity
Thursday, June 19, 2014
Project Code: 217-07-19
Father Walter J. Coronel leads an eventful life. His Parish of Our Lady of Guadalupe in Ahuano can only be reached by canoe, since the village lies in the heart of the rainforest and is cut off from the rest of the world by a river. There is no bridge, and while the nearest largish town of Tena is "only" 36 miles away, it still takes the people of Ahuano up to 8 hours to reach it, and sometimes even longer, depending on weather conditions. In this part of the Amazon, rainfall is constant, and sometimes rivers rise so rapidly that it is impossible to cross them. Ahuano has a population of 12,234 people, the majority of whom live in simple huts. "Approximately 65% of them belong to the indigenous Indian tribes," Father Walter explains. Most of them are members of the Amazon Quichua peoples. Many of the native children and even the school-age adolescents do not speak Spanish, but only their own Quechua language. Some 40% of these children do not attend school at all, since they are helping their parents in the fields. Many children in Ecuador grow up in very poor circumstances; this country of South America has been going through a profound financial and economic crisis, ever since the collapse of several of its banks in the late 1990s. For years now, because of the economic situation, hundreds of thousands of Ecuadoreans have been leaving their home country in search of work abroad. But it is the rural indigenous peoples who are most affected by dire poverty, and it is to them above all that the pastoral concern of the Catholic Church is directed.The parish in Napo is a very lively community, and a very young one. There are 845 children and young people here who regularly attend the religious instruction classes. Altogether, there are 123 lay catechists and two religious Sisters of the community of "Missionary families" providing this catechesis. The classes are aimed not just at religious instruction but to be a "school of life" in which these young people are encouraged to grow up in Christian values of faith, hope and charity, and with a sense of solidarity, community and respect for God's creation. "For these children and young people, the catechesis is not only an opportunity to learn more about Jesus, but also a chance to be given advice about health," says Father Walter.Since there is no other suitable place for teaching within this community, the catechists and the parents of the children have joined forces to build a bamboo structure. However, this is only a temporary solution that will not last long. Now Father Walter wants to provide the community with a permanent building made of reinforced concrete bricks and metal, and he has turned to ACN for help, "so that the children and young people of this isolated people can be given an education in faith and values." The plan is for five separate rooms with floor areas close to 690 square feet. "These rooms will help the children and young people to grow, spiritually and humanly speaking," Father Walter explains. The people themselves have no disposable income, yet they will help whenever they can. Even the children and young people have already promised their priest that they will be sure to always keep the rooms very clean. ACN would like to help with a contribution of $9,900, and Father Walter wrote to use in advance to thank us for anything we can give. "Thank you on behalf of all the faithful in our parish. We are praying and celebrating Holy Mass for the intentions of ACN's kind benefactors." Will you Father Walter build a place for young people in Ecuador to grow in faith and maturity? Aid to the Church in Need commits to invest your funds where they will have the greatest impact for the Church that we serve. Funds donated to Aid to the Church in Need's projects will be used towards the greatest need in our programs to help keep the Faith alive.

Recipe Find: Luby's Eggplant Corn Casserole
Published 12:00 am, Wednesday, May 12, 2010
John M. Askew asked for an old Luby's recipe, and happily I'm able to deliver.
Askew wrote, ?Some time ago I had a recipe from Luby's for their eggplant casserole and have lost it. I asked a friend of a friend who is a general manager of an individual Luby's, but she was unable to find the recipe and I have not seen it offered in many years.
?I remember you peeled the eggplant and added a can of creamed corn. It fixed a casserole literally to die for. It was so good, I would give anything to be able to obtain that recipe once again.
?Whatever you can do to find this wonderful recipe for me ? and I feel sure a great many other readers ? would be greatly appreciated.?

I'm sure this recipe will make Askew happy and, hopefully, other readers will enjoy it, too. We originally ran this recipe in our Chefs' Secrets column in early 1994. A reader with the initials B.L.L. requested the recipe as had several other Luby's patrons, according to columnist Pat Mozersky.
?In case you have the odd family member who thinks he or she doesn't like eggplant, this dish, which resembles a corn bread stuffing, may change their mind,? Mozersky wrote. She included Luby's Corn Bread recipe, ?to make it authentic'' and we're sharing that recipe as well.

My three decades of experience in finance have taught me that you can't underestimate the value of having an inside edge. When someone who has been on the inside knows how the system works and wants to use that knowledge to help the individual investor, I'm all for it. It's what I've dedicated my life's work to, and we have another powerful ally doing the same.
That's why I recently wrote the foreword to Hilary Kramer's book, The Little Book of Big Profits from Small Stocks. She's done tours of duty with Morgan Stanley (NYSE:MS) and Lehman Brothers during their heydays, and she knows how things work from the inside. And, while we approach stock-picking from different angles, we sometimes find ourselves on common ground.
So, after spending some time talking stocks at the Chicago Money Show, we decided to sound off on five stocks to see what we can agree on — and what we'll have to agree to disagree on.
As a special feature for my loyal What's Working on Wall Street Now readers, we're teaming up to share our views on each of the following stocks:
- Novo Nordisk (NYSE:NVO)
- Allot Communications Ltd. (NASDAQ:ALLT)
- Darling International Inc. (NYSE:DAR)
- Panera Bread Co. (NASDAQ:PNRA)
- Bank of America Corp. (NYSE:BAC)
Let's see where we agree and disagree on these five stocks.

Army Distinguished Service Medal (#4) citation
6 July 1972
The President of the United States of America, authorized by Act of Congress July 9, 1918, takes pleasure in presenting a Third Bronze Oak Leaf Cluster in lieu of a Fourth Award of the Army Distinguished Service Medal to General William C. Westmoreland (ASN: 0-20223), United States Army, for exceptionally meritorious and distinguished services to the Government of the United States, in a duty of great responsibility as Chief of Staff, United States Army, from July 1968 to July 1972. During a period marked by significant changes in national strategy and priorities, General Westmoreland's outstanding professional ability, personal integrity, and untiring leadership efforts were an inspiration to all the Army. Under his guidance, the Army began the complex transition from a force of one and a half million men, shouldering the major burden of our prolonged national commitment in Southeast Asia, to a smaller, highly professional force, qualitatively structured to support the national strategy requirement of the Seventies. General Westmoreland initiated programs to provide for the restructuring, realignment, and modernization of Army forces in order to improve force capabilities and best meet our global national commitments. He instituted measures to revitalize leadership and professionalism throughout the ranks, to include the design of a new Officer Personnel Management System, a Noncommissioned Officer Education System, and an Enlisted Qualitative Management Program. General Westmoreland was particularly concerned with the men and women of the Army and devoted himself unsparingly to improving service life and providing the soldier with an unprecedented sense of personal choice, dignity, and self discipline. He insisted on meaningful and challenging training for every person in the Army and the effective utilization of skills in tasks directly related to unit missions. He directed that the responsibilities for designing unit training programs be returned to the unit commanders and urged leaders at all levels to make use of mission-type orders and permit their subordinates maximum initiative in accomplishing assigned tasks. In adjusting the priorities for future military spending, General Westmoreland resolutely defended programs aimed at improving the working environment and living standard of American soldiers worldwide. His imaginative and unrelenting efforts to improve service attractiveness, job satisfaction, and public understanding have been instrumental in moving the Army toward the President's goal of an all-volunteer force. His exceptional leadership and selfless dedication to duty throughout this period are the hallmarks of his brilliant career. A grateful Nation recognizes that General Westmoreland's long and distinguished service, covering three wars and more than 36 years of devoted duty, has been in the finest traditions of the military profession. His loyal and illustrious service to the United States, in successive positions of the greatest responsibility, reflects the highest credit upon himself, the Army, and the Nation.
