Reviews for Meaty Pasta Casseroles
Average Rating
"Made this awhile ago and had the second one in the freezer. Several days ago we lost our Brother-in law to cancer. We pulled the second one out of the freezer and brought it to my Sister's home because we knew there would be a lot of people there. It was a big hit and feed a lot of people. Going to make it again just to have ready in freezer for next emergency."
"This recipe is fabulous!!! I have a family of 6 so a 9x13 is perfect for us!! And another one to freeze. We were so impressed!!! The only thing I added was a lot of fresh minced garlic (heaping soup spoon full). Added it with the other veggies."
"This is a keeper. easy to make and loved by everyone."
"This is everyone's absolute favorite thing I make. It's an impressive dish that everyone loves. It's also great because it makes two pans, so you can freeze the second one to eat at a later date."
"Loved this dish found it great to make and use at large family functions Simply Delicious 5+ stars from our family."
"This recipe is fabulous!! There are only two of us, so I put in 8x8 casseroles, cooked one and froze the remainder. We have leftovers for tomorrow! Cant wait to finish. It does make a lot. It did take me a little longer than 45 minutes to prepare, but was worth the time!!! Thank you so much and keep those recipes coming!!!"
"I have made this dish twice now for guest. It is a keeper and I look forward to making it again."
"Delicious! I made this with italian turkey sausage..."
"Amazing dish! I didn't need to change a thing - this has SO much flavor and was so easy to make! A BIG HIT with my family, I will definitely be making it again! Thanks!!"
"Thoroughly enjoyed this recipe! Just use your imagination for lighter substitutes if you want less fat/sodium, etc. However, I LOVE getting recipes just like this. I rarely follow the recipe word for word, but add and delete what I want and it is superb!!"
"I agree there are a lot of ways to "lighten" this up, chicken sausage for example. Recipes are created as a guide, use your imagination. I don't like pepperoni, so I eliminated that. I doubt the "recipe police" will be after me."
"Regi M, thank you for your excellent comments. Wonderful recipe! Thanks to Debra."
"Wonderful traditional casserole that has been added to my favourites! There was a review by claudeusgothicus on March 1, 2010 that expressed pretty much what I feel about negative reviews by people who don't like the fat, salt or other aspects of a recipe. We who like old fashioned recipes are not interested in comments by people who wouldn't even make this recipe or have the smarts to adjust it to their liking. These old recipes had to feed people who worked hard - a large number on farms - and needed all the calories they could get as they burned them off and didn't sit in front of a TV or computer. My farm relatives are/were not overweight and many live into their late 80's and 90's with relatively few health problems. I like seeing the original recipes and I like to play with variations on a theme - please keep the originals coming! I used two large onions in this and a tablespoon of garlic powder (I was out of fresh) for starts. I also like to see recipes for a large number of servings so I can freeze a portion or use the whole thing for potlucks, etc."
"Excellent! love the flavors! It's easy to adjust to your families likes or dislikes. It's nice that it makes two casseroles you can share one and have a meal for yourself to. Very worth the time and effort!"
"Make this up and then divide it into freezer containers. Want a quick bite, add a bit of water and into the Microwave. Puppy hunts!"
"Looks great, tastes great but the calories, fat and sodium content are not healthy. It may be home cooked but truly a recipe for obesity and eaten rarely."
"I think the recipe is good, rich andFilling. With any recipe, you can changeAnd Modify to suit your diet, salt intake etc.But shouldn't be knocked if not tried.Just sayin"
"I served this to a group of pastors. Not one noodle was left over. Thanks, Debra!"
"This recipe was fabulous! It is not like your "regular" run of the mill pasta dish. It has a unique flavor that is very filling. This is a new favorite at our house!"
"Family Favorite!!!!"
"I have made this several times for potlucks, friends who have had babies and for freezing. This is a HUGE recipe. 35 minutes of prep for lots and lots of yummy food. If you have a smaller family, quartering this casserole might be a good idea. Add a salad and bread and you have a feast. I highly recommend."
"Awesome dish! My kids request this one and even help me make it ."
"As soon as my husband saw this picture on the front of my TOH magazine, he insisted that I make it. I don't layer exactly like the recipe calls for, but close enough! It is delicious and I love that it makes 2 casseroles."
"This recipe sounds just right for my teen kids who are picky eaters. This recipe reminds me of one of our favorite pizzas 'the all meat special'. I am going to make this. I love old fashioned recipes. It always can be altered. The stores have everything low fat for substitues for this recipe for those who care to make the alterations. I would be very easy to do that. Thanks for this special recipe!! **smiles**"
"Very flavorful! I make lots of little casseroles to freeze, ready for our motorhome trips. "
"oops! I don't know what happened to the other star! I wanted to give this dish 4 stars and now it won't let me change it, sorry."
"Thank-you! We enjoyed this dish as is, plus it has given me some great ideas for a few variations. This dish is exactly what I was looking for, good old fashioned full flavored 'real' cooking! Not some skimpy imitation diet food that gets passed off as being 'good' just because it's supposed to be good for you! LOL "
"Delicious! I made this into 4 smaller casseroles and popped 3 in the freezer. I also used whole grain penne pasta."
"Very good but very high in saturated fat."
"Thank you very much for sharing this. My whole family loved it, even the picky eaters. Takes awhile to prepare but worth it. Will make a good pot luck item for holiday season."
"Prep. time almost 11/2hrs. to get everything done..But it was worth it very very good..."
"When i first saw this i thought it sounded like a good dish but,after looking at the nutritional facts I think wow! Not very healthy eating."
"Awesome dish! I've made it many times and like socking one in the freezer for later!Holly"
"This was very good, and relatively easy to put together."
"This is really a delicious dish. Thank you for sharing!SKB"
"Wow, this is so good. I cut the recipe in half and made only one casseroles. It will be on my next party menu. I added salt and pepper and garlic to the meat mixture."
"Hey Judy,I am Deb Butcher, the person who submitted the Meaty Past casserole. And you are correct it is an old fashion recipe I have had this recipe a long long time. However, I have had a chance to lose 75 lbs in the last two years and believe me - I love Italian cooking but, I have had to modify any recipe that I use to help make it diet friendly. There are alot of substitutes that can be used for this recipe. Ground turkey for one. And, the taste is not quite the same, but when you are on a diet there are alot of things that you think you would not care for , but , they actually can become your favorite new flavors and tastes. Different seasonings really make a difference also. Try using Smoked Paprika or Lemon Pepper Seasoning If you would like, I can send you a more diet concious version of this to you. I choose to send the original version because it tastes wonderful and it truly has an original italian flavor- which is what the Taste of Home Book normally uses for their dishes. If I would have been sending this in for the new magazine Taste of Home healthy Cooking - then I would have modified it and used ingredients that would have been suited for that particular magazine. Thank you for your imput, hope you can understand alittle better why I chose to send in this recipe."
"Since there's many delicious Low Fat Cheeses and other Low and No Fat products available today, Folks watching their Fat intake (such as myself) should simply substitute such products when making this Recipe or simply not make it at all. I appreciate having the Fat grams and other Nutritional info provided so I may *choose* if I want to make this dish or not.JMHO.Krissy~~~"
"I can't believe how old-fashioned this recipe is. Surely Taste of Home could have found a more updated dish for first prize."
"It really sounds delicious but I had the same thoughts when I read the recipe.BErb"
"Perhaps healthy Cooking could lighten this up?"

Looks like the newest burger for the "manly man" (as described in this commercial's title, "Beef 2012 Manly Man Campaign") at McDonald's in China features two beef patties, bacon, and...a hefty glob of mashed potatoes? The commercial starts by calling their beef patty "good," then the bacon "better," and finally, the mashed potato "best." Knowing how tasty McDonald's beef patties are, this may very well be the correct order of ingredient deliciousness.
Poking around the Internet hasn't shown the mashed potatoes-in-a-burger combo to be widespread, but here are some examples: this burger topped with mashed potatoes and bacon, this burger stuffed with mashed potatoes and (turkey) bacon, and Burger King's Loaded Steakhouse Burger topped with mashed potatoes, along with bacon.
What do you think of mashed potatoes on burgers?

Woody Allen held a press conference to announce that he will start filming in Barcelona this July.
Woody Allen's Spanish project is taking a step further with the announcement on additional cast and the filming date. In a press conference held on Monday (July 2, 2007), Allen also stated that he's looking forward to work in Barcelona with �great, great enthusiasm�.
Allen will start the movie that is tentatively titled "Midnight in Barcelona" on July 9. Those already on board as the main cast are Scarlett Johansson, Penelope Cruz, Javier Bardem and Rebecca Hall while the latest added actors are Patricia Clarkson, Kevin Dunn and Chris Messina. These people will be joined by a number secondary cast and some local actors.
Allen is also hoping that he can reprise the success of portraying Manhattan in his 1979 film. "I hope I can present Barcelona to the world as I see it, the same way I presented Manhattan to the world as I saw it with my eyes," said Allen. "I want to write a love letter to Barcelona and from Barcelona to the world."
A comedy primarily set in the Spain's second largest city, pic will have some of its scenes taken in the northern city of Oviedo. Allen was reportedly spotted to scout locations there early earlier last month following a secret premiere of his latest writing and directing effort "Cassandra's Dream" in nearby Aviles.

Bloemfontein - The Free State's new provincial executive will be announced on Thursday, spokesman Mondli Mvambi said on Tuesday.
"There is no need to rush while considering how and who would respond properly to the genuine concerns of people in the province," said Mvambi.
He was reacting to a Democratic Alliance allegation that premier Ace Magashule was resting on his laurels in announcing his executive committee.
"We are concerned this delay would further exacerbate serious problems within the provincial departments of health and education," DA caucus leader Roy Jankielsohn said in a statement.
Mvambi said the executive council would be announced in Welkom on Thursday.
The premier had been consulting on the most suitable candidates to lead departments since his inauguration.
Mvambi indicated Magashule was also consulting on how best to respond to concerns raised during the recent election campaign.
Jankielsohn said the new MECs had a lot of work to do and Magashule's delayed announcement was ironic.
"It is ironic premier Magashule at his election to the premiership last week stated that 'now was the time to work for the people of the Free State', and yet no work has begun."
Jankielsohn said various Free State medical facilities suffered food, medicine, and critical professional medical staff shortages.
"The provincial department of health is in serious financial difficulty."
The health department entered the current financial year with R700 million in accrued shortfalls and currently required "intensive care".
Jankielsohn said the Free State education department also entered the financial year with a R1.2 billion shortfall.
"It would not have enough money available to improve the province's education system and serious concerns exist about the department's ability to meet its financial obligations," he said.
Jankielsohn urged Magashule to stop resting in a province that had the highest unemployment rate in the country, poor road infrastructure and municipal service delivery, and a growing dependency on government grants.
Mvambi said the premier was well within the law with the announcement of the executive.

I don't think the fact that i can play a jembe(african drum), accustic guitar, violin or that i can sing half okay is going to come much into it.
What about if i told you that my sense of humour is not MIA like others you may come across? That i could make you laugh with the silly and weird things that come up in my mind?
Is my sarcasm an asset here or is that a con in your opinion?
What about if i said i was driven or ambitious or passionate or idealistic? Does that sound interesting to you?
Would it matter that i care alot about the state of the world and wanting to make a difference to it? Or that i care alot about people in general? What do you think of that?
What about if i told you i like to write and read and learn and let the inner nerd out quite often? Or do you not like nerds?
Hmmm do you like to debate things? Have intense discussions on topics with some substance? Deep conversations maybe?
All i can offer is myself to share. I'm always changing, a few pieces short of a complete puzzle. Unpredictable.
I'm nonconformist and proud of who i am :) I think there are enough masks that people wear that's why I don't wear make up (at all) so i just try to be myself. Though i am a little shy at first, but if you take the time to get to know me you'll find out how quickly that fades. If you take the time you'll discover if it was worth it.
Be yourself that's all you ever need to be. Don't take shit from anyone. Being an individual often attracts scorn. But the difference with me is, i don't need to "belong" to feel whole.
Also one reason i'm on here is to talk to people that i usually wouldn't. Variety is the spice of life. I really do beleive in that. Though ofcrouse, people that have simillar interests with me will not be turned away, obviously.
Still a work in proggress
Retaining useless facts
Having insomniac tendacies
Improving my vocab
Having intense empathy
Getting really into my music
Chair dancing
Having extraverted thoughts
Not caking my face in shit
Drifting off into my own world
Being there for someone that needs help
Playing chess
Not being able to catch a ball
Having a spark of spontaneity
Not caring what people think
Being weird
Being my goofy self very easily with new people
Making people laugh
Having interesting conversations
I'm also kinda tall-ish
Better off Ted
Arrested Development
House (used to be my favourite show, don't watch it anymore though)
Everybody Loves Raymond
The Simpsons
The Big Bang Theory
Hell's Kitchen
Kitchen Nightmares
Top Gear
The librarians
My Strange Addiction
Wife Swap
I'm open to any kind of cuisine style. But my favourites so far are thai, indian, chinese and mexican.
Other random foods are: turkish kebabs, raspberry sorbet, chocolate almonds, flavoured milk like strawberry and chocolate, caramel milkshakes, long macs, tuna cakes, fruit (in general), wedges with sweet chili and sour cream, milk, cheese, yoghurt, bubble tea, hot chocolate, chai latte, vegetarian food,
Sense of self
Paper & Pen
Also i have a fairly demented sense of humour. It comes in many shades. But i would say my sense of humour is fairly black/dark as well as all that other junk.
If you know what the Venus Project is.
If you like George Carlin or Christopher Hitchens.
P.S The biggest mistake you can make is judging a book by its cover. Don't miss out on something just based on your first assumption of it. Remember assumptions have no basis.

What is in this article?:
- What CFOs Don't Know: Top Cloud Myths
- Data Ownership
- Deployment Options—Peaceful Coexistence
As the need for businesses to be more agile increases, CFOs will increasingly look towards cloud-based financial management systems for the functionality they need.
Corporations have embraced cloud technology for everything from human resources to customer relationship management, yet the finance department isn't jumping on board. What's holding them back and how can they benefit from cloud-based financial systems?
Finance professionals aren't risk-takers. We were taught to be conservative, professionally skeptical and to be good custodians of company assets. We are always planning for a rainy day and conservative by nature. As the senior leader responsible for handling risk and compliance for an entire company, a CFO is often cautious when it comes to adopting new types of technology—especially for the core accounting operations.
Many CFOs believe that moving financial systems to the cloud means forgoing security, data ownership, and weakening internal controls and audit trails. These beliefs span the full spectrum. Some financial professionals solely believe in sticking with their on-premise software, some who believe in hybrid solutions, while others want a completely cloud-based environment. By myth-busting cloud concerns and clarifying the benefits of different IT environments, this article should provide the information finance executives need to understand the potential benefits of cloud-based software.
Security in the Cloud
Security concerns tend to be the greatest source of anxiety when it comes to adoption of cloud technology.Security is a valid concern, but moving to cloud-based financial solutions doesn't mean increasing risk. Most businesses already conduct sensitive transactions such as banking and highly sensitive payroll via the Internet—meaning they're using the cloud.
Cloud vendors are aware of the importance of robust security and many have invested heavily in this area in order to offer the highest level of data protection and security. A cloud datacenter will employ more advanced security measures, redundant power sources and multiple back-up systems that are often too expensive for single companies to deploy on their own.
Vendors often set up cloud data centers in a number of different locations to minimize the risk of disruption of service.If there is an outage in one location, the service can be automatically transferred to a backup data center, often with minimal interruption in service. Additionally, there are specific technology standards by which the leading cloud players secure their data centers.
For finance executives who may have concerns about internal controls and audits, there are standards to help ensure that a cloud provider has taken the proper steps to keep financial data secure and compliant. These standards—namely the Statement on Standards for Attestation Engagements No. 16 (SSAE 16) in the U.S., and its international cousin, the International Standard on Assurance Engagements No. 3402 (ISAE 3402)—provide guidance to accounting firms who audit a cloud service provider's operations. When performing an audit, accountants must also assess the effectiveness of a provider's internal controls and other measures to safeguard financial data from tampering.
Upon completing an internal controls audit, the cloud provider's auditor will issue a report attesting to the compliance with the above standards to its customers and other external stakeholders. For concerned CFOs, these security standards help provide extra assurance that financial data is safe or compliant in the cloud.

WHEN I look back on 2009 I remember a host of happy times.
Although I had to endure injuries at the start of the year, I enjoyed my season with Notts when I came back in the summer and took plenty of wickets.
They have since awarded me a benefit year, a fantastic honour, and I have done well enough to make it back into the England squad.
When I have pulled on the Three Lions, I have been pretty consistent and pleased with my form. I know I am bowling well.
And, of course, off the field, my wife has given birth to my first child Indiana, which has been a tremendous experience.
There is just one regret I have that I hope can change in 2010 – and that's still never having played in an Ashes Test match.
It was brilliant to see England beat the Aussies in the summer and be part of some of the squads.
But to not get on the field in what is considered the greatest series of them all was obviously a massive disappointment.
That is how it goes sometimes; you have to be ready to deal with what comes at you.
The good thing from my point of view is that I have a chance to put that right in the coming 12 months with a tour Down Under on the horizon.
There is a lot of good cricket to look forward to in the New Year and my hope is that I can be fit to play a little bit more.
I'm also looking to sort out my contract with Notts and finish the rest of my career at Trent Bridge.
They have a young team now with me as one of the older heads and it will be my job to pass on the experience I have to those coming through.
But I have said many times before how much I would love to play in the Ashes and that is a big incentive.
If I could achieve that, then it really would be the icing on the cake as far as my career is concerned after some of the other things I have already achieved.
I still have faith in my ability as a bowler and I know that I can put myself on the plane for Australia if I perform as I know as I can.
So there is certainly plenty for me to get my teeth into in the coming year.
WHAT an impact from the Notts lads in England's second Test victory against South Africa at Durban – Swanny (Graeme Swann) and Broady (Stuart Broad) were simply brilliant.
The result was one of England's best wins in my opinion, especially as it was away from home and after we had been under severe pressure and only just saved the first Test.
We were very much the underdogs but we really managed to turn it around so that the South Africans are now asking questions about their own team ahead of the start of the third Test in Cape Town tomorrow. (Sunday)
It was reminiscent of what happened in the summer against Australia when we held on for a draw at Cardiff and then beat them at Lord's.
The boys did mention that in the lead up to the game and sometimes it can help you.
I cannot say enough about my Trent Bridge team-mates, who were central to the Durban win. Swanny is making a big difference to the England team and he is definitely one of the best bowlers in the world at the moment, as reflected by his ICC ranking of number three.
He has taken 54 wickets in this calendar year, which I believe is the first time an English spinner has achieved such a distinction.
Those statistics do not lie and comes from the fact he is bowling with such confidence.
Just as important is his batting. He has always had the talent but now he seems to have found some consistency to go with it.
What Broady has in his locker that every good side needs is the ability to bowl match-winning spells.
Sometimes he can seem a little bit innocuous and have sessions where he doesn't get any wickets but then, all of a sudden. he bowls a devastating spell that changes the game.
Whether it is swinging the ball, moving it off the seam, reverse swinging it or bowling bouncers, Broady can do it all and when he gets it right there are few better.
In the end, it just shows if you can put good teams under pressure they can crack, no matter what their reputation.
That happened to South Africa in this Test match and it has happened to us in the past.
It was great to hear the Barmy Army singing songs from our dressing room and we had our own singalong before going back to the hotel for a few, quiet beers.
But there were not too many celebrations because we are only halfway through the series and there is a lot of hard work still to go.
WHEN I look back on 2009 I remember a host of happy times.

My experienve too is that bugs reported via the Racket users list are responded to more quickly. Nevertheless I think a bug report is the right medium. Let's not forget that the PLT team has much work at hand. My experience is that after some patience, bug reports are treated very sincerely. May be the PLT team is too kind accepting bugs reported on the users list where the reports should be posted on the bugs report site. By using this site you also inform the PLT team what version and platform you are using.

The 'High School Musical 3: Senior Year' has reportedly sent a mass e-mail, claiming her former friends Alexa and Kayslee are the ones responsible for the breach.
Vanessa Hudgens allegedly accuses her former friends of leaking her saucy photos. After a photo, which saw the actress kissing a girl pal, went viral, the "High School Musical 3: Senior Year" star talked to the Federal Bureau of Investigation to help her track down her e-mail hacker. However, it is reported that the brunette beauty believes her former friends Alexa Nikolas and Kayslee are the ones responsible for the breach.
Irritated Vanessa has allegedly sent a mass e-mail to everyone she knows, claiming her friends leaked the racy photos every time she promotes her new film to sabotage her career. The message read, "In 2006, Kayslee and Alexa were close friends of Vanessa, but they later drifted apart due to Vanessa's work commitments (The 'High School Musical' movies). Vanessa was especially fond of Alexa, even inviting her to star in her debut music video, to make up for the fact that she had been too busy to spend time with her."
"Later that year, Alexa suggested that Vanessa take some racy pictures to keep her boyfriend interested," the mail went on. "Vanessa agreed and privately took some naked photos of herself. Kayslee then took photos of Vanessa and Alexa kissing. Alexa and Kayslee took no nude photos of themselves".
"Vanessa took more nude photos that year and the next, but she was careful and deleted the pictures from her mobile phone. Vanessa uploaded her pictures to her email account and sent them to her boyfriend, like Alexa had suggested. On one of these occasions, she did this while she was at Alexa's house. Alexa downloaded the pictures onto her computer when Vanessa accidentally left her email account logged in."
"Since September 2007, Alexa and her friend Kayslee have been leaking Vanessa's pictures every time she has movie coming out. I believe this is because of them being jealous of her successful movie career."

Through a wide range of social media, Real Bratz will put the spotlight on young women who have made a Real Difference as so many from generations past have done to change their world through their determination and drive.
The mission of the campaign is captured within the Real Bratz video:

Scholarships help Waikato directors develop skills
Scholarships help Waikato directors develop governance skills
The Waikato branches of the Institute of Directors (IoD) and Chamber of Commerce have joined forces to give aspiring Waikato directors a chance to receive up to $3000 towards the cost of governance development training.
Applications for the first of two Governance Development Scholarships that will be offered this year are now open and close on 31 May.
Successful applicants will be announced at a special event being jointly held by the two organisations in June with special guest speaker from the British High Commission, Deputy High Commissioner Patrick Reilly.
The scholarships form part of the
'Governance the Next Generation' partnership, which was
launched in November 2012 by the Waikato branches of the two
Waikato Chamber of Commerce CEO Sandra Perry said the partnership was successfully addressing a shortage of qualified and experienced directors capable of representing the Waikato region at a national level.
Chair of the Waikato Institute of Directors Margaret Devlin said the professionalisation of the governance sector is very much a current topic with the IoD's Chartered Director programme currently being socialised with members.
"Many people learn about being a director through practical experience, but there is a demand for formal training that helps people better understand their role and responsibilities which is reflected in the number and calibre of applications we receive for this scholarship," said Devlin.
Applicants are expected to have a demonstrated commitment to governance and at least five years' experience at a senior manager or director level.
One of last year's winners Steve Howse has more than 10 years' experience in senior management and elected governance roles in organistions including LIC, Hill Laboratories and Synlait Farms Ltd. He was also recognised as the Young Executive of the Year in 2004, and Leader of the Year at the 2010 Waikato Business Excellence Awards.
Mr Howse used his scholarship to complete the
Institute's flagship Company Directors Course.
After attending the five-day block programme in Auckland, Howse said the training has given him a valuable qualification and solid theoretical foundation to reinforce his practical experience.
"One of the significant benefits for me is that the organisations that I represent, both now and in future, can have a lot of confidence in my skills as a director now that I have this qualification. The course itself was broad and covered a number of aspects from reinforcing my current knowledge to developing new skills, and providing new ways of thinking about things," said Howse.
He said anyone thinking about applying should ensure they talk to their referees as early as possible, and be very clear about why they want to apply and what they will do with the training once it is completed.
"The Institute want to understand your motivations for applying and what benefits you will get both personally and professionally from undertaking further professional development. You may also need to invest some of your own resources depending on the level of training you undertake," said Howse.
Applications for the
scholarships are now open and can be downloaded from the
Waikato IoD's website:
As well as training, the Institute also provides scholarship recipients with networking opportunities and discussion and exposure to insights from high profile, experienced directors.

A girl used to make the actress' school life a living hell and they met again when Michelle was already famous and confident enough to say that the bully sucks.
Actress Michelle Trachtenberg still has nightmares about her school years because bullies made her life a misery. The former "Buffy the Vampire Slayer" star became a target for classmates, who would push her down stairs, lie to get her into trouble and steal her clothes.
The pretty star recalls, "When I was in elementary school, this one girl threw me down a flight of stairs, fractured my ribs, punched and fractured my nose, and told the principal I used the word b**ch, and got me sent to detention. When I was in junior high school, there was a whole gang of girls who would push me into lockers and steal my clothes after gym, so I wouldn't have anything to wear."
She tells Complex magazine, "In high school, there was this girl who had a drugs problem and she tried to make my life a living hell... She dated a couple of my friends and when we were all out one night, she took someone's vodka bottle and chucked it at me."
But Trachtenberg did have the pleasure of meeting the girl who pushed her down the stairs recently - as she left a restaurant. She adds, "There was a wall of, like, 20 paparazzi... I have never before or since said something like this, because it's so disgusting, but I turned to her and was like, 'Oh, I'm sorry. I'm really famous. They need to take my picture. Sucks for you!'"

text: (Story updated to add that the pace of U.S. homebuilding in February disappointed many in the industry, falling 1.1% from January.)BOSTON ( TheStreet) -- The much-anticipated rebound in the new-home market may be here with this spring's selling season. And that has investors diving into these highly cyclical stocks after years of decline. Indicative of that, the S&P 1500 Homebuilder Index is up 35% this year, versus the S&P 500's 11.7% gain. And that jump has come just months after the close of a year in which only 304,000 new homes were sold, the lowest on record that go back to 1963, according to the Commerce Department. But today it was reported that the pace of U.S. home building fell in February, by 1.1% from January, well below expectations, which called for an increase of 1.3%, according to the Commerce Department. But there are signs of growth ahead, as permits for new construction reached their highest levels since 2008. The tenuousness of a potential rebound came through in a report Monday from the National Association of Home Builders as its measure of confidence of new-home builders remained unchanged in March from February despite a number of economic positives in the past few weeks. But the current level is the highest since June 2007 and over 50 builders reported "good" market conditions, which hasn't been the case since April 2006. Still, buyers are skittish as any form of bad economic news is likely to scare them off. And many markets remain clogged with unprocessed foreclosures, and the new borrowing standards are tough, especially for first-time buyers. Those issues are somewhat offset by low interest rates. S&P Capital IQ analysts said in a recent research note that "most publicly traded builders are in a stable, competitive position after reducing costs, retiring debt and increasing cash positions. However, we think the housing market will improve slowly in the next year as it will take time before buyers' confidence and the job market progress enough to support a more favorable view of home ownership." Here are 10 stocks expected to benefit from the homebuilding industry's rebound in inverse order of analysts' "buy" ratings:

"It was not on purpose. I was fighting for victory and just made a mistake" - Luis Salom.
- Home
- MotoGP
- Championships
- Forums
- CrashTV
- Live
By Lisa Lewis
RW Racing's Luis Salom has been handed a five place grid penalty for this weekend's Malaysian Moto3 Grand Prix, for his part in the manic last lap action at Motegi.
Winner of two grands prix this season, Salom was keen to add to his tally but a rash manoeuvre in trying to move from fourth to first also took out race leader Jonas Folger, the Aspar man visibly angry with the Spaniard when the two met in the gravel.
It was soon announced that the move would be investigated, although the incident was somewhat overshadowed by the events that unfolded over the rest of the lap, with Sandro Cortese's accident and outbusts grabbing the most attention.
Kalex-KTM rider Salom confirmed the penalty decision on his official website, where he also placed the following statement:
"It's a shame and I feel so bad for Jonas Folger, but it was not on purpose. I was fighting for victory and made a mistake. It was a racing incident. I'm back to third in the championship standings. That's the worst. "
Team manager Johan Stigefelt looked for positives among the bad news:
"This is a very bad result for the team, but we have to keep our heads high. Aside from the race we had a good weekend and we have to regain that spirit for Malaysia, the next race. Luckily Luis is not hurt, because we have three races in a row with little time to recover."
Salom is leaving RW Racing at the end of the season to join Red Bull KTM Ajo. RW Racing will be running Czech rider Jakub Kornfeil next year.

Shovels & Rope Announce Fall Tour
Americana duo Shovels & Rope are gearing up for their fall headlining tour. The husband and wife pair will kick off their international trek on Sept. 6 in Montreal, Canada, and wrap it up on Nov. 1 at the Voodoo Music Experience in New Orleans.
The couple, composed of Michael Trent and Cary Ann Hearst, released their critically acclaimed album 'O' Be Joyful' in 2012. Included on the album is a new version of one of the first songs they ever recorded, 'Gasoline,' which was on their eponymous, self-released debut album in 2008.
"When Shovels & Rope first recorded 'Gasoline,' we weren't even sure we were gonna be a touring band," they say. "Fast forward three years and 600 shows later, 'Gasoline' had taken on a new life, its arrangement and spirit changed and the new recording reflected that. It was an interesting way to reflect on how our band had developed into its own personality and sound, given the chance to work it out on the road."
Shovels & Rope will take time out of their fall tour to head to the Americana Music Awards on Sept. 18 in Nashville. They are nominated for four trophies, including Album of the Year.

Although not creating new law, the decision in the recent case of AstraZeneca UK Limited v International Business Machines Corporation 2 provides some salutary lessons for both suppliers and customers of the importance of planning for exit from the outset of any complex ICT outsourcing deal. The case concerned the scope of "Termination Assistance" that was to be provided by IBM following termination of its Master Services Agreement with AstraZeneca. The decision throws the spotlight on an aspect of IT outsourcing deals that all too frequently does not get the attention that it should.
Our practical tips for ensuring that the benefits of any exit regime are maximised include:
- Agree the principles and contractual framework for the exit plan pre-contract and ensure that clear and unambiguous drafting is used to reflect this in both the agreement and exit plan itself.
- Ensure that the exit plan and exit management process are developed early in the contract lifecycle and are regularly reviewed and updated during the term of the agreement. This will enable the parties to fine tune scope and address any new issues.
- Ensure that the exit regime addresses the provision by the supplier of exit assistance (effort over and above the day-to-day services), and how the price for such assistance will be determined. This should include co-operation with any replacement suppliers.
- Ensure that the exit regime addresses buy-back and valuation of assets used in the provision of the services; the transfer of any third party contracts that are critical to ongoing service provision, and appropriate post-term rights to use intellectual property and software.

Almost ten years after he began writing his bestseller The End of Faith, Sam Harris' new book Lying is now available as a $1.99 Kindle Single:
This is his 4th book and his first e-only book. (It's not available in hardcover/paperback.)
Almost ten years after he began writing his bestseller The End of Faith, Sam Harris' new book Lying is now available as a $1.99 Kindle Single:
This is his 4th book and his first e-only book. (It's not available in hardcover/paperback.)
E-Book Only? Booooo…..I'm starting to want to get a Kindle.
I'm not sure what the reading experience is like, but I think there's Kindle for computer.
There's also the "cloud reader" if you use Google Chrome or Safari:
I absolutely love my kindle. But yes there is a kindle version for pc (not sure about mac but probably), android, and iphones. They all have built in highlighting, bookmarking, and definitions.
Yes, I have the one for Mac and recently downloaded "Lying" to it. I also recommend calibre for changing Kindle's Mobi to epub or any other ebook system if you have a different reader.
buy it as a kindle d/l it to your computer, convert to script using 'calibre' ( a free d/load ) and read on your computer Calibre is here: http://calibre-ebook.com/download
I prefer paper.
So buy it as a Kindle single, convert it using Calibre and then print the darned thing
$3.41 to me here in the UK. What a rip.
British importing always does this. When I bought The Absolute Sandman (Which would be £99) from Amazon US I got it for less than £50 INCLUDING P&P
€2.99 = 4.07$ in Germany. Why is that?
Looks like his wife is listed as the editor on this one too. cool
E-book only is fine with me, but not everyone has a kindle, and Amazon doesn't allow converting to a format usable elsewhere. I guess this will be the 1st Sam Harris book I don't buy.
But you can get Kindle apps for iPhone, Android, HP Touchpad, even PC.
Sure, everything except an actual e-book reader.
If your e-book reader is based on android, then you can root it, and install android apps on it. I have a nook color with the kindle app.
So this is Kindle only? I'll be damned if I'm going to be locked in to a single device by an E-Book format.
It's not a book. It's a 26 page essay.
The big question is, how do you have a signing with an e-book?
Boo, I have a nook. Why discriminate among e-book readers?! D:
convert it using http://calibre-ebook.com/download it's free and oh do useful.
Love my Kindle! And if you have a smart phone or tablet, then you already have a Kindle. Also, and Amazon doesn't want to admit this I'm sure, but there's always somewhere on the Internet to get ebooks converted to different formats.
It would be nice to see someone who writes about ethics and morality publish an essay as donationware. If Radiohead can do it, surely Sam Harris can.
Amazon won't publish anything new unless they get money for it. $1.99 is as close to donationware as you can get with them.
So leave Amazon out of it. (And they do give away Android apps, although in that case the person who writes the app gets screwed since they now have to support and provide upgrades for something they didn't get any money for).

Well, this is one I guess I won't get to read. No Kindle. No tablet. No smartphone. Which means I either get it via PC and read the book on my monitor [no, thank you. Not enjoyable way to read a book.] or I don't get it at all. Looks like the latter.
Why Kindle only? Why not an *open* ebook format that all the other eReaders can use?
Because Amazon is the publisher. "Kindle singles" aren't self-pubbed, or through a general publisher– they're released by Amazon. Given the (presumed) short length, it would probably be difficult for Harris to find a more general publisher for it. I don't know of anyone besides Amazon (or self-publishers) producing works this short.
need audio book!
You know, some people, like my wife, have difficulty reading for long on a computer screen or e-reader screen thanks to things like astigmatism and migraines. I'm rather disappointed this is e-book only.
I love my Kindle. If your wife has tried a Kindle, of course, then ignore the following. But eInk is not like a computer screen. You can enlarge the font massively (something my middle-aged eyes find very useful), and it doesn't typically cause eyestrain as reading on a tablet or computer does. I've read a whole lot more since I bought my Kindle, simply because the font and the eInk make books more readable for me.
Since this is a "Kindle single," it's probably too short to issue as a print book, anyway. Those are typically 5-10,000 words, I think. Not worth printing!
i'm one of those old fashioned types like his wife. reading for too long on a computer hurts my back, eyes, and gives me headaches. i also can't take an e-device into the bathtub or toilet, where i do a lot of my reading. i like books. please, if you're a writer, make sure that i can read your stuff on paper. i promise, i'll recycle it if it's a one-off sort of narrative. but there really are times some of us want to cuddle up with a book, glass of wine and bowl of chocolates. computers and e-readers just don't work for that, for us.
I love to read as I pace in the pool. I just use a gallon-sized zip-loc to protect my kindle. It's cheap, and it works (fold it in the back and tape it down). I have no trouble seeing through the plastic (even without readers, which I normally need for print books). I was hesitant to get a Kindle, but now that I have one I enjoy the convenience it offers. Great for travel.
Why can't you take a Kindle to the bathroom? People do it all the time. And like Marguerite points out. The Kindle doesn't have a traditional computer screen. It is really a lot like paper.
She did look at an eInk screen in the store once, and decided it wouldn't be a problem. However, to get one would cost over a hundred dollars, which is completely not worth it. The price of ebooks is not sufficiently discounted to pay back on the price of a Kindle in any reasonable time (based on paperback costs, which is what we generally buy). I also have no intention of buying a Kindle since I cannot then lend out the books, or for that matter, give them away when I decide I no longer need/want them (almost never happens, but it has in the past).
Perhaps if I traveled a lot, I'd consider it, but I highly doubt it. I think I would rather just stuff 4 -5 books in a carry-on and have the pleasure of an actual, in my hands book. And since the last time I was on a plane was 2 years ago for my honeymoon, I don't think it's likely to come up.
This leaves us with the option, with this book, of using the pc reader, and finding out how many pages it takes before she's in pain, or of her not reading it at all, and just have me read it. I'm not sure that's worth the money.
I'm sure someone will release this as a pdf soon.
The Kindle could also be more accessible http://www.disabled-world.com/assistivedevices/computer/kindle.php
ALL of Cory Doctorow's works are accessible to EVERYone.
Just sayin'
I think it is interesting that most of the posts here comment on Sam's book being digital or on Amazon/Kindle and not on the book itself.
I thought it was a very good book on lying and the problems that lying creates. Among other things it robs family members the opportunity of being closer and truly knowing each other. If friends can't be honest with each other then perhaps the friendship isn't as solid as they believe.
The book is only about 26 pages and can be read in its entirety in about 30 minutes. Most of the chapters are only 2 – 3 pages in length so those who have problems reading ebooks can read a chapter or two at a time.
Sam Harris' Website offers it in pdf for $2.99. http://tinyurl.com/7ads68s

Once upon a time, there was a war between some nice people with a popular Web browser called Netscape Navigator and a behemoth company with an upstart browser called Internet Explorer. You can guess who won.
During 2009 you'll be getting a new Web browser, no matter what you're using today, even if it's just a security upgrade. The real upside is, while Microsoft may stay on topIE still controls 70 percent of the browser marketthe little guys aren't going away like Netscape. Not without a fight.

I'd imagine gerrymandering was a bigger factor in PA than in the nation overall, but Democrats should be aware that redistricting is not the only reason Republicans kept the House. Eric McGhee suggests the other factors were incumbency and an "inefficient" concentration of Democrats in urban areas. The culprit is single-member districts. It's a crazy long-term goal, but it's worth keeping in mind that electing members of Congress through party-list proportional representation would fix both of these problems by diminishing the importance of geography and increasing the importance of parties relative to candidate effects.
Results are in the graph below. Democrats do gain more seats under this simulation—seven more total—but fall far short of matching their predicted vote share. The point should be clear: even under the most generous assumptions, redistricting explains less than half the gap between vote share and seat share this election cycle.
And it's worth noting just how generous these assumptions are. This bare-bones model misses more individual outcomes than any handicapper or other forecasting model. It ignores one of the most important ways that a gerrymandering party tries to stick it to the other side (i.e., by moving incumbents to more difficult territory), as well as one of the most important ways that a gerrymander doesn't work (i.e., incumbents beat expectations based on district partisanship alone). It's not really a bad model. But it's not really a good one, either.
If redistricting doesn't explain the discrepancy, what does? We have argued that incumbency is a likely culprit, but as Dan Hopkins recently pointed out, Democrats also do worse because they are more concentrated in urban areas. They "waste" votes on huge margins there, when the party could put many of those votes to better use in marginal seats. (See this paper by Jowei Chen and Jonathan Rodden for more evidence on this point.)

Poor Julian Assange. He has celebrities lining up donations to get him out of a British jail, and now, the Atlantic reports, he'll be staying at a massive Kent Suffolk manor owned by, you guessed it, a prominent British journalist (well, his parents, really).
So once again we're obliged to ask: why are journalists jumping at the chance to defend a man whose stated objective is pure opacity in government?
And, more importantly, what kind of news do you have to report to live in a mansion like this?

Have Subaru Questions? Ask a Subaru Mechanic and Get Answers ASAP
I talked to the previous owner, no security system or remote starter were ever installed. He said he had not had this problem before. I am thinking it is the ignition switch. The only put new speakers in the front doors. I am also wondering if it is the key. The one I was using is a silver extra key.
I tried all three keys I have. Same result. do you think it could be the ignition switch on the steering collum?
Sorry for the delay getting back. I has been cool enough a low enough humidity to get out and check. Today I put the fuse back in and unplugged the ignition switch. It did not solve the problem. So if you have a next area I can look I would appreciate it.

Perth - A tropical cyclone heading south over the Indian Ocean caused the air search for a missing Malaysian jetliner to be suspended on Tuesday, as a US submarine drone neared completion of its undersea search without any sign of wreckage.
The daily air and sea sorties have continued for a week since Australian authorities said they would end that component of the search for Malaysia Airlines Flight MH370, which disappeared on March 8 with 239 people on board.
But on Tuesday, hours after authorities said up to 10 military aircraft and 10 ships would join the day's search, they said the air search had been suspended because of poor weather as a result of Tropical Cyclone Jack.
"It has been determined that the current weather conditions are resulting in heavy seas and poor visibility, and would make any air search activities ineffective and potentially hazardous," the Joint Agency Co-ordination Centre said in a statement.
The ships involved in the day's search about 1 600km north-west of the Australian city of Perth would continue with their planned activities, the centre added.
The setback occurred as the $4-million US Navy submarine Bluefin-21 was scheduled to complete its mission as soon as Wednesday with the search officials confirming the device is yet to find any sign of wreckage.
The authorities have turned up no conclusive evidence of the aircraft's ultimate location but believe sonar signals, or "pings", detected in the Indian Ocean search area several weeks ago may have emanated from the plane's "black box" recorder.
But after more than a week of daily sweeps of the largely unmapped stretch of ocean floor 4.5km deep and 2 000km north-west of the Australian city of Perth, the drone is yet to produce any sign of wreckage, officials said on Tuesday.
On April 18, the Perth-based Joint Agency Co-ordination Centre told Reuters that the Bluefin's search of the target area, a circle with a 10km radius, would likely end in as little as five days.
As the remote controlled submarine was expected to complete its ninth mission on Tuesday, four days after the co-ordination centre gave the five-day timeframe, the centre confirmed that it had covered about two thirds of its target search area and had found "no contacts of interest".
The dawning prospect of the Bluefin-21, initially seen as the search's most promising aid, completing its mission without a trace of the missing aircraft has authorities under pressure to determine which strategy to take next.
The daily search involving some two dozen nations is already shaping up to be the most expensive in aviation history. - Reuters

Wroclaw (Poland), July 25 (IANS) Indian girls put in their best performance so far to sweep aside Japan 3-0 and book a place in the quarter-final of the World Junior Women's Team Championship squash here.
Harshit Kaur Jawanda put India ahead by defeating Risa Sugimoto 11-6, 11-3, 5-11, 11-4 on Wednesday, and Lakshya Ragavendran sealed the tie when she beat Satomi Watanabe 11-5, 11-7, 10-12, 14-12, before Sachika Ingale eased past Momoka Nakahira 11-9, 11-8, 11-4, in the inconsequential third singles.
India take on Hong Kong in the quarter-final. Hong Kong, seeded fourth, have been impressive in the tournament so far with Asian junior champions Ho Ka Po (U-19)and Choi Uen Shan (U-17) yet to drop a game in these championships. Ho Tze Lok has been equally impressive.
Jawanda took control of the match early on, pinning Sugimoto to the back corners and pounced on Japanese girl's errors to win the first game 11-6.
Jawanda continued to dominate the front of the court and Sugimoto could not counter as the Indian youngster raced away with the second game.
Sugimoto pulled out all the stops in an amazing display of athleticism as she retrieved every ball and played absolutely wonderful drops to take the third game to 5. However, Jawanda re-asserted her dominance in the fourth winning to 4 and putting India 1-0 ahead in 22 minutes.
Ragavendran showed off her array of strokes in racing away to a two-game lead against Watanabe. The Japanese youngster could do precious little in the face of such aggressive stroke play.
But Watanabe hung on and waited for her chances to take the third game 12-10. Ragavendran had match ball at 10-9, but could not convert allowing Watanabe to reduce the deficit.
In an extremely tight fourth game, Ragavendran held her nerve to close out the match at 14-12 giving India an unassailable 2-0 lead and a place in the quarterfinal.
In the final rubber, Ingale was largely untroubled in what turned out to be a routine win against Nakahira in 20 minutes to complete the 3-0 win for India.
India beat Japan 3-0 (Harshit Kaur Jawanda bt Risa Sugimoto11-6 11-3 5-11 11-4; Lakshya Ragavendran bt Satomi Watanabe 11-5 11-7 10-12 14-12; Sachika Ingale bt Momoka Nakahira 11-9 11-8 11-4).

By demanding the ouster of the ministers facing charges in the Jagan assets case, TDP felt it could nail both Jagan and the Congress. But on the other hand, YSRCP legislators succeeded in using the same issue to project Jagan as innocent. They questioned how Jagan who played no part in the administration could be kept in a jail, while the ministers who issued GOs were left alone.
Responding to the demand of the TDP, the Chief Minister Kiran Kumar Reddy said the ministers were innocent. He argued that they had not violated any law. YSR Congress argued how then Jagan could have violated any law. If the ministers acted within the limits of law by issuing those controversial GOs, how could Jagan be blamed of violating any law, they questioned. This unexpected contention shocked the TDP leaders. Leaders started doubting if they were inadvertently supporting Jagan.
Minister Kanna Lakshmi Narayana has even questioned if the TDP colluded with the YSR Congress as both the parties were voicing the same demand. This threw TDP off balance. They had no answer for the minister's question.
Thinking deeply about the issue, TDP leaders are now reportedly thinking that stretching the tainted ministers issue too far, would only help Jagan. Instead of harping on the issue, the TDP leaders now reportedly decided to enlighten the people that it was due to their efforts that ministers Sabita Indra Reddy and Dharmana Prasada Rao were made to resign. They also wish to tell the people that the Chief Minister was trying to shield ministers who helped Jagan amass wealth and create an impression that it was the Congress and the YSR Congress that were in collusion.
