One of the most controversial figures in 19th-century American history, Thaddeus Stevens is best remembered for his role as congressional leader of the radical Republicans and as a chief architect of Reconstruction. Long painted by historians as a vindictive "dictator of Congress", out to punish the South at the behest of big business and his own ego, Stevens receives a more balanced treatment in Hans L. Trefousse's biography, which portrays him as an impassioned orator and a leader in the struggle against slavery.
Trefousse traces Stevens' career through its major phases, from his days in the Pennsylvania state legislature, when he antagonized Freemasons, slaveholders, and Jacksonian Democrats, to his political involvement during Reconstruction, when he helped author the 14th Amendment and spurred on the passage of the Reconstruction Acts and the impeachment of Andrew Johnson. Throughout, Trefousse explores the motivations for Stevens' lifelong commitment to racial equality, thus furnishing a fuller portrait of the man whose fervent opposition to slavery helped move his more moderate congressional colleagues toward the implementation of egalitarian policies.
"Thaddeus Stevens has long deserved a discerning, fair-minded, knowledgeable, meticulous biographer; he has finally found him." (James M. McPherson, Pulitzer Prize–winning author of Battle Cry of Freedom)
"This book is well researched and engagingly written and is likely to become the standard biography." (Choice)
"An especially valuable addition to Civil War literature. This is now the definitive work on Stevens." (Library Journal)

Not For Adults
Not much he could do. The book was written at most at high school level.
This book is not for adults. It appears to be written for someone with little to no historical knowlege. It should have been listed, at most, as a "young adult" book.

Despite the gains made in the fight against HIV/AIDS, 5 700 people are still being infected daily, and millions still need treatment, writes Azad Essa.
Last week UNAIDS released its annual report detailing the gains made in addressing the pandemic. And there is a lot to appreciate.
More people are on treatment than ever before. That is some 18 million people on life-saving treatment. As a result, millions of people with HIV are now living longer lives. Overall, new infections are on the wane. And when it comes to accountability and shared responsibility, low and medium income countries are investing more than ever before into solutions.
But not so fast. Despite the gains, around one million people still died from AIDS-related diseases last year. Another 18 million still need treatment. More importantly, an estimated 5700 people were newly infected with the virus every day throughout 2015.
For all its efforts to showcase the work been done to tackle HIV, the UNAIDS report, released on the eve of International AIDS day on December 1, carried a serious message: girls and young women were still being disproportionately impacted by the virus and serious action needed to be taken.
Data showed that at the end of every week in 2015, some 7500 women and girls between ages 15-24 were newly infected by HIV. The bulk of these took place in our backyard: southern Africa. Overall, the number of new HIV infections among women across the globe of the same age bracket had reduced by just six percent since 2010.
The numbers are hard to understand, difficult to relate to. But we all know what they mean.
"Women's and girls' heightened vulnerability to HIV goes far beyond physiology: it is intricately linked to entrenched gender inequalities, harmful gender norms, and structures of patriarchy that limit women and girls from reaching their full potential and leave them vulnerable to HIV," the report noted.
Indeed, there may be more scientific know-how to fight HIV today than ever before, but this purported advantage still struggles to make an impact in a world still overwhelmingly misogynistic.
"No one should misunderstand the truth, that gender equality and the struggle for equality remains the most important issue on the planet," Stephen Lewis, former UN special envoy for HIV/AIDS to Africa, said in a statement over the weekend. And he is right.
The continued impact on young girls and women should come as no surprise. It is merely an extension of how men exert power women on a daily basis.
In one study cited in the report, just 50% of South African women surveyed between the ages 15-24 reported using a condom the last time they had sexual intercourse with a non-cohabitating partner. Another study conducted in KwaZulu-Natal found that only 26% of men surveyed were aware of their HIV status, only 5% were on treatment, and their viral loads were extremely high. In other words, unprotected sex would almost certainly result in HIV infection. Another set of data cited by the report, found that even when treatment was readily available, men were still less likely to take it, compared to women.
All these years later, the core issue remains eerily familiar.
It is men, often older men who play "sugardaddies" and "blessers" in desperate economic contexts that remain the biggest stumbling blocks to ending AIDS. It is the same lot who refuse to use condoms, avoid being tested while continuing to engage in risky behaviour; a mix of toxic masculinity, medical illiteracy and lunacy.
The story of HIV is peppered with anecdotal evidence of how patriarchy has long been a central pillar in the spread of the virus. For instance, in 2004, the Tanzanian Media Women's Association (TAMWA), said that until or unless authorities or communities address the stigmatisation of women with HIV, all efforts would be in vain.
"Men don't want to be associated with HIV so they blame women, despite the fact that many of the infections are brought into marriages by philandering men," the association said.
Likewise, at the opening ceremony of the AIDS conference in Durban earlier this year, actor Charlize Theron brought doctors, activists to their feet, when she argued that AIDS continued to kill because "we value some lives more than others".
"It's the culture that condones rape and shames victims into silence. It's the cycle of poverty and violence that traps girls into teen marriages and forces them to sell their bodies to provide for their families," Theron said.
Slowing or preventing new infections means reimagining empowerment. Girls have to stay in schools, so they might have the tools to make the best choices for themselves. Boys need to be introduced to behaving responsibly, not as media throwaways but through compulsory school subjects. It also means making sure that violence against women is not tolerated, that precedents are set, and justice is not uneven. It also requires us to report abuse and demand convictions when it comes to sexual assault and rape.
It is all linked, related in one form or another. And it always has been.

We all have those days when all our demons come out at once and want to unleash hell on our defenses. Some of us have week and months of those days. It isn't just about food. It is about everything in life. There are voices that tell you that you will never succeed. They tell you what you failed at in the past. They tell you that you're not worthy of anything more than what you are. I am here to tell you that the voices that tell you that you are "less than" are not the voices that want anything for you but misery. They want you to be miserable because they are miserable. They don't want you to ever reach your highest potential...because they never reached theirs.
Kiss me for saying this. Nobody ever got to a happy ending without going through hell first. If they did, there isn't much of a story to be told. Speaking from ongoing personal experience, listen to the people who believe in you. Listen to the people who see you as a fighter. You'll have bad days. We all have them. Allow yourself to feel pain, but don't let it take over your life. How? How do you not let it take over? When you're in pain how can you see out of it?
The only answer I've ever found worth sharing, is God. First rule of over-eaters anonymous: Thou shalt not fool thyself. Food addiction is real. It is as real as alcohol addiction or drug addiction...but I don't need anything special to pick up a twinkie at the corner market (or 10...). Why is it okay to rely on God for help with a new job or to get us through a death in the family and not rely on Him for something deep and personal like addiction? Part of me says, "I can handle this. I don't need to bother Him about this trivial stuff." The thing is...if it is a struggle, then it isn't trivial. It matters. You matter. You and I both need to reach down into our guts and realize that though this addiction is big...God is bigger. I never have felt guilty turning to God for support or comfort. Is the battle going to be easy? Nope. Is it going to be worth it? Daggumit...Yes! Keep moving. Onward and upward darlings!
Always My Very Best,

EMERGENCY SUPPLEMENTAL APPROPRIATIONS ACT FOR DEFENSE, THE GLOBAL WAR ON TERROR, AND HURRICANE RECOVERY, 2006 -- (House of Representatives - March 15, 2006)
Mr. GARRETT of New Jersey. Mr. Chairman, we are on the floor tonight to discuss a supplemental emergency appropriation, supplemental meaning that we are adding to something to complete it or to bring it to fruition. An emergency, just ran out and grabbed the dictionary, meaning an unexpected serious occurrence or situation urgently requiring prompt action.
Well, unfortunately, the language in the bill in this area of additional foreign aid is not an unexpected situation or emergent. That is just not my opinion. That is actually the opinion of the committee itself.
The language that we seek to strike is approximately $15 million in additional foreign aid, $5 million to expand public diplomacy information programs relating to Iran, and $10 million in democracy funds for the promotion of democracy, governance, human rights, independent media, and the rule of law in Iran.
Iran is certainly not an ally of this Nation that we are here tonight to seek assistance of $15 million. Again, not my opinion, that it is not an ally of this country. This administration itself called Iran part of the Axis of Evil. Iran, who wants to wipe Israel off the map of the world; Iran, who wants to assist Hamas in any way they possibly can; Iran, who neglects and fails to listen to the world's heed and continues to expand its nuclear program. And yet tonight we have a supplemental program of approximately $15 million to assist that nation.
Again, I say that this is not my opinion, that this is not an emergency situation. The committee in its report says that it is disappointed in the Department of State's failure to provide adequate and timely justification of the emergency nature of these funds.
If the State Department then cannot supply us and cannot supply the committee with the very information that it needs to say that this truly is an emergency situation, why then is this House considering providing an additional $15 million to support Iran?
The rest of the supplemental obviously has worthwhile programs in it. We are trying to assist our men and women overseas who find themselves in harm's way as we speak here tonight with military assistance. We are trying to assist those people down in the gulf coast to rebuild their lives with Katrina aid.
But, at the same time, we have articles such as this added to this Christmas tree list, if you will, of programs to the supplemental bill that do not meet the criteria of an emergency situation.
So, Mr. Chairman, I would say that we should strike the language in the bill that would delete $5 million for public diplomacy and $10 million for economic support fund for Iran.
Mr. GARRETT of New Jersey. Mr. Chairman, I have come to the floor tonight to address the issue of an emergency supplemental in which we are spending upwards of $15 million more in essence on what I call foreign aid. I am here tonight on this particular amendment to strike approximately $5 million of that foreign aid.
As I stated before and as people look to this program and what we do here tonight, one must wonder what makes this situation an emergency. Well, the committee itself raised that same question when they said, ``The committee is disappointed in the Department of State's failure to provide adequate and timely justification for the emergency nature of these funds.''
What are these funds going to? These funds are going to the country of Iran. An ally of ours? Not by any stretch of the imagination. In fact, Iran has been called by this administration part of the Axis of Evil. Iran is a country that wishes to wipe Israel off the face of the map. In fact, the President of Iran has even said that they wish to wipe the United States off the face of the map.
So one wonders who at the State Department was looking at this situation in the past and did not know that there was a need for funds in this particular area, either in the past budget which we have already gone through or in the budget process that we are going through as we speak now. Apparently no one knew at the State Department that Iran is a problem country that we have to deal with and needed additional funding for, and so they come to us at the last minute with a supplemental emergency appropriation.
With all of the problems that we have today in this country, now is not the time to be adding more to our Nation's debt for foreign aid. Other portions of this bill certainly have merit to them. Portions, for example, for aid to our soldiers. Our men and women who find themselves in harm's way as we speak here tonight need the additional dollars and cents to get the job down there.
We have heard also the issues with regard to the folks down in the gulf coast, and there is additional funding for that program as well, to assist those people in New Orleans and elsewhere as far as their needed relief.
But do we need to spend additional emergency funds tonight for foreign aid in essence for diplomatic and consulate programs for Iran, not by any stretch of the imagination an ally of this country?
Mr. Chairman, I would suggest we should not. This is not a program that we will be putting on the burdens of today's taxpayers. No, we will be putting this burden on our children and our children's children. Why is that? It is because we are already in deficit spending in this Nation, and the emergency supplemental we are debating tonight will simply add to that debt and add to that burden.
I encourage my colleagues to support this amendment, to strike this additional foreign aid which is not an emergency by any stretch of the imagination.

Last month, 100,000 people signed the petition to fully legalise Cannabis in the UK. Under current rules, if a petition reaches 10,000 signatures, there will be a "response" from government. If a petition reaches 100,000 signatures, the petition will be "considered for debate in Parliament". Although we don't yet have the debate in parliament, the government has issued a response to the petition, which can be seen in full here. The response is disappointing to say the least, yet a little too predictable. It seems that the UK government still has an outdated view on the drug, and continues to ignore the evidence.
"Substantial scientific evidence shows cannabis is a harmful drug that can damage human health. There are no plans to legalise cannabis as it would not address the harm to individuals and communities."
Although it is true that cannabis is not harmless and does cause some damage to human health, evidence is clear that it is much less harmful than alcohol and tobacco, two drugs which are legal. If it is government policy to regulate based on harm to human health, surely substances like alcohol, tobacco and even sugar would be Class A drugs, as they cause much more harm to individuals and communities. The graph below ranks drugs based on harmfulness to individuals and others:
Interestingly, although heroin and crack cocaine are the most harmful to individuals; alcohol is the worst as it causes by far the most harm to others.
"Legalisation of cannabis would not eliminate the crime committed by the illicit trade, nor would it address the harms associated with drug dependence and the misery that this can cause to families."
This is just completely wrong, and ignores historical evidence of prohibition of alcohol in the 1920s. After alcohol prohibition was repealed, crime rate – including organised crime, violent crime and corruption – dramatically reduced. In addition, we can point to more recent data in Colorado state after one year of retail sales and two years of decriminalisation. Marijuana possession arrests have dropped by 84% since 2010. Violent crime in Denver went down by 2.2% in the first 11 months; burglaries decreased by 9.5% and overall property crime fell by 8.9%. The statement also ignores the significant role that the war on drugs plays in creating the harms associated with drug dependency and the misery it causes to families. With the current laws, a young person that is likely unemployed or living in poverty, that is caught buying or selling cannabis, could either face lengthy jail time or a criminal record that makes it very difficult for them to get a good job and help that they need to make their way in life. And so, many of the harms that the statement refers to are a consequence of the drug laws, not of the drug itself.
"Despite the potential opportunity offered by legalisation to raise revenue through taxation, there would be costs in relation to administrative, compliance and law enforcement activities, as well as the wider costs of drug prevention and health services."
At least the government now admits that there is potential economic benefits to legalisation. However, it is confusing for them to point out that there are administrative, compliance and law enforcement costs. Nobody is denying that. However, those costs are much higher when cannabis is illegal than when it is legal. Much more time and money would need to be spent on enforcing the drugs laws, in an attempt to suppress the drug trade when the drugs are illegal. Furthermore, Colorado, which is the fastest growing economy in the US, has created hundreds of jobs since legalisation, and the drug dispensaries contribute 10 times the tax revenue of a typical restaurant or retail shop. This tax revenue has been used for youth prevention services, education, mental health and community based developmental programs, all of which are much more effective in dealing with the drug dependency problem.
To conclude, not only is the government statement hollow, and lacking in evidence to support its claims, it also completely ignores relevant positive data from places like Portugal and Colorado, which have seen decreases in crime rate and drug use. Cannabis is, also, not as harmful as this statement makes out, and it is much less harmful than tobacco and alcohol. The public petition was a step in the right direction, it put pressure on the government to respond. Now, after this government response, there ought to be even more public pressure on the government, and the parliament debate needs to happen.

My column Friday noted the anniversary of "The Perfect Storm" in 1991. The effects of Hurricane Grace and an offshore low pressure system caused extensive damage and became known as the Halloween Storm. Hurricane-force winds nailed New England with the highest tides since the Great Atlantic Hurricane of '44. Today another nor'easter will hit this area. A nor'easter is a cyclonic storm on the east coast of North America where coastal winds originate from the northeast and the most violent of these storms occur between September and April. Complicating this storm are leaves. Trees holding fall foliage will be coated with thick, wet snow causing limbs to snap and power outages. Early estimates are 10 to 15 inches of snow in Harrisburg, Penn., and a foot in Philadelphia. Fastcast: Fall-like.
Sunny, with a high near 71 degrees. Easterly wind around 5 mph. Tonight, clear, with a low about 42 degrees. Calm wind.

There is currently no preview for this fixture.
Paddy Jackson's kicking proved the difference as Ulster maintained their perfect RaboDirect PRO12 record with a 19-12 victory in their crunch clash with the Scarlets.
The 20-year-old contributed 14 points for Ulster with four penalties and a conversion in difficult conditions at Parc y Scarlets to go nine points clear at the top.
Jackson and Aled Thomas scored early penalties before Irish international Andrew Trimble intercepted Gareth Owen's sloppy pass to register the only try of the night, with Jackson adding the conversion.
Either side of the break Jackson kicked two more penalties but Thomas responded with two of his own to make it 16-9.
Jackson restored Ulster's ten-point lead before half-time replacement Dan Tuohy was sin-binned, but Thomas missed his kick.
The Scarlets failed to capitalise on their man-advantage but Thomas managed to secure a last-gasp losing bonus point.
Ulster were boosted by the return of Johann Muller while Craig Gilroy started fresh from his star performance for Ireland against Argentina.
Thomas missed an ambitious early penalty attempt from 40 yards out before Jackson put one narrowly wide.
But presented with another opportunity after ten minutes Jackson did not make the same mistake and kicked Ulster into the lead from straight in front of the posts.
Thomas made amends for his miss too on 18 minutes with a wonderfully executed kick from the touchline to level things up.
Just before the half-hour mark Ulster stretched their lead when Trimble intercepted Owen's wayward pass to accelerate away from the Scarlets defence and run in under the posts.
Jackson added the extras and kicked another three points after the Scarlets conceded a penalty from their own scrum.
With only two minutes of the second half gone Ulster continued where they left off with Jackson striking another penalty to stretch Ulster's lead to 16-3.
Thomas then shanked another penalty attempt horribly right of the posts but after Darren Cave was penalised for not rolling away he made no mistake, and added his third penalty on 52 minutes from a difficult angle as the Scarlets upped their intensity.
Four minutes later Jackson gave Ulster some breathing space with another penalty before the Scarlets threatened following a good break from Kieran Murphy only for a forward pass to bring an end to the move.
As the Scarlets pressed Tuohy put Ulster further on the back foot when he was sin-binned for not rolling away just past the hour but Thomas blew the chance to reduce the arrears.
Despite their numerical advantage the hosts failed to capitalise, though Thomas ensured the Scarlets did not go empty-handed when he notched a penalty with the last kick of the match to secure the losing bonus point.

The Chancel Choir practices and sings weekly during the choral season, for the Glory of God, striving for variety, excellence and positive musical Christian fellowship. The choir sings a range of appropriate musical anthems, choral introits, benedictions and hymns, accompanied by our delightful and fully-restored 1925 four-manual Skinner pipe organ. We are also proud of the recently acquired (September, 2015) brand new Yamaha acoustic C7X grand piano. Organ, choral, and instrumental concerts are sometimes held in the sanctuary. We have an active handbell choir that practices and plays regularly. This choir uses our three-octave chromatic set of Schulmerich handbells.
Early December brings the annual Sing-Along-Messiah concert, first taking place in 2000. This is a gift to the community, as well as a means to raise funds for Housing Forward (formerly, West Suburban PADS), which serves the homeless in our community. Please see http://www.housingforward.org/.
Those interested in knowing more about joining the music ministry or the Skinner pipe organ should contact the director of music ministries through firstname.lastname@example.com.

On Oct 18, the government of India took a bold step to deregulate diesel prices in India. What this means in simple terms is that diesel would now be priced at market price, instead of the government subsidizing the same as earlier.
What does diesel subsidy actually mean?
Diesel prices in India has never been at market prices. The government had fixed a certain price of diesel and had to pay extra cost for diesel.
As per some tentative estimates and news reports, the government of India's revenue loss on selling diesel, LPG and kerosene at lower than imported or market price cost it in this fiscal is likely to hit a sum of Rs 86,080 crore. This is still way below than the the previous fiscal's amount of a whopping Rs 1,39,869 crores.
What does diesel deregulation now mean?
Diesel deregulation would now mean the government's subsidy burden would be reduced, thus freeing-up large amounts of money for development and things like education and healthcare.
Diesel prices would now be revised every six months and lower prices would help poor farmers and also reduce the cost of transportation and inflation in the economy.
Fuel price deregulation has been in the agenda of every government, but, very few have had the audacity to link the it to market prices.
The NDA Government freed petrol and diesel prices, but according to reports the UPA government reversed it in 2004. In 2010, petrol prices were completely freed an aligned to market rates.
Reduction in international prices of crude a blessing
The NDA Government under Narendra Modi has managed to take the bold decision, as it comes in the wake of a sharp drop in international prices of crude.
After a Cabinet meeting last week, Finance Minister Arun Jaitley announced that diesel price stood deregulated to allow it to move as per market conditions, just like petrol. There will be an immediate respite of about Rs 3.50 per litre on pump price given the considerable reduction in international crude oil prices. This is certainly good news since lower diesel prices would help lower transportation costs, which in turn would help the common man.

Mannheim equipment sale and Tblade jerseys?
I know it is sacreligious for a Lions fan to want such a thing,but for a men's league team I play on our colors match Mannheim's and would love a pair of game used Warrior mitts to use in that league. Does Mannheim auction of equipment at the end of the season? Do they do it through their site or ebay? Any help their is GREATLY appreciated...also on the other mens league I play on Tblade sponsored us about 7 years back and supplied us with white jerseys. These jerseys are now becoming a bit worn and I have been trying to hunt down the black version of the jersey as shown here in this ebay auction
They only have about ten and we would need a minimum of 15 jerseys and would be nice to hunt down a goalie cut. Does anyone know if there hockey shop has any of these jerseys? I sent out some feelers to some ebay sellers in Germany,but no luck as of yet. Any help here would be appreciated as well.

Jones, Elizabeth
About Me
I am a first-year Ph.D. student in the Department of Science and Technology Studies at University College London. I have a B.A. in History and a B.A. in Philosophy from North Carolina State University. I have a M.A. in History and Philosophy of Science from Florida State University and a Certificate in Museum Studies. I am trained in Paleontology through education and experience and worked as the Paleontology Technician for the North Carolina Museum of Natural Sciences.
Doctoral Research
My doctoral research concerns the history of paleontology and more specifically the development of ancient DNA research. Ancient DNA research, the search and recovery of genetic material from fossil plants and animals, is an outgrowth of years of scientific and technological achievements and an even longer history of conceptual evolvements. The prospect that DNA could be preserved in some of our most ancient creatures was a cause of excitement for the public, yet a source of controversy among scientists.
My M.A. Thesis – "The Search for Ancient DNA, the Meaning of Fossils, and Paleontology in the Modern Evolutionary Synthesis" – documented the early history of ancient DNA research from 1984 to 1999 with specific regard to the implications of this new approach to fossil studies for the field of paleontology. My doctoral research will expand on this work and will explore the public perception of ancient DNA research in compare and contrast to the reality of the science itself.
Currently, my review of this history is portrayed almost entirely through the science itself as evidenced through scholarly scientific articles. I plan to examine media sources such as newspaper reports, journal articles, popular programs, as well as books and movies like Jurassic Park that have influenced the public image of ancient DNA study. I also plan to include personal interviews with scientific researchers and media reporters.
Overall, I hope this project will be an example of the relationship – and sometimes disconnect – between scholarly research on science and media portrayals of science. As a historian, it is my objective to present a careful synthesis of ancient DNA research and a thoughtful analysis of its consequences for scientific development and public engagement. I hope this will be a story for all involved in the endeavor – or excitement – to recreate the past.

Colin Smith
I am a mature man who qualified in Carpentry and Joinery with a career spanning over 30 years I then spent 2 years teaching the trade at 2 different colleges and gained a couple of NVQ Qualifications in teaching the subject, I then took a course in TEFL and have been looking to get back into education in some capacity. My strongest subjects at school many years ago were English, Spelling and Maths of which I gained CSE qualifications, I believe I have a good command of the English language and am a good communicator. I enjoy reading books and am interested in Poetry as my Father was a poet and self appointed Dr of letters, so I believe my pedigree is quite comprehensive even though I need more experience actually teaching, my enthusiasm and eagerness to impart my knowledge and experience will more than compensate. I would be prepared to be a TA or classroom technician just to ease myself back into the education system. Many Thanks. Regards Colin F Smith.

However, I have discovered, nearly 10 years ago that to make a "pure" carbonara you don't use cream but eggs (though of course some debate may still remain! )...so back when it was just hubby and me and no tots yet, we have enjoyed many plates of what they call the purist's carbonara. Now, if I wish to make a pasta sauce with cream instead then I make the Alfredo sauce. However, when we fancy Carbonara this is what I make and I have never made it any other way. It is truly sumptuous!
It took me so long to post this recipe because we often end up eating it before I get the chance to take some photos and the old photos I have of this dish were way too dark and ugly so I couldn't really use them for blogging purposes. I made Spaghetti alla Carbonara again a few days ago and resolved to take some good photos this time. I am glad they came out decent enough. There is no smothering of cream on it but trust me each and every Spaghetti strand is covered with a delicious parmesan and egg sauce (and yes, there's bacon all over it, too.). Please enjoy this really yummy Spaghetti alla Carbonara - you simply can't make it any other way! If you wish to make it really authentic, use Pancetta or Guanciale (Italian Bacon) but if you don't have access to it you can sub with regular streaky bacon which I often use to make this. :-)
If you like what you see and would like to receive new recipe updates we'd love you to subscribe to our posts and join our site. Also do like us in Facebook so you can get the latest updates and so much more. Thanks for visiting and happy browsing!
12 oz (3/4 lb) Spaghetti
2 Tablespoons Olive oil
4-5 (or about 4 oz) strips of Pancetta or Guanciale (Italian Bacon) or regular streaky Bacon, sliced into small strips/pieces
4 Garlic cloves, crushed
3 Eggs (room temp of if cold, place eggs in hot water until they warm up
1/2 cup grated Parmesan Cheese
Salt and pepper, to taste
Fresh parsley, chopped for garnish
Pancetta (Italian Bacon)
The key here is to get everything ready for mixing. Once the bacon and pasta are both cooked and ready - it's really just a matter of mixing everything together so it doesn't take too long to make it. The eggs would be cooked by the hot pasta and bacon drippings. The warmed-up bowl will help ensure that as well plus with that you can enjoy the pasta warm throughout dinner time.
In the meantime, get a large oven proof bowl and warm it up in a 250F oven. Once all the ingredients are ready, get the hot bowl out of the oven using hand mittens. Break the eggs into the bowl and blend it with the parmesan cheese and season with salt and pepper, to taste.
Drain the hot pasta and quickly mix it with the egg/cheese mixture. Get the bacon and its drippings and pour it over. I simply eyeball this. The amount of bacon drippings to use is up to you. Perhaps 3-4 tablespoons to begin with if you want a dryer pasta and simply add more to your liking. Mix well and adjust the seasonings, if needed. The eggs would be cooked by the heat from the pasta and bacon drippings (so it's necessary to ensure that both are still hot when stirred in). Serve immediately with extra parmesan cheese to pass around! Garnish with a little chopped fresh parsley. Comfort food deliciousness!

Land research can tell us so much about how our ancestors lived and worked. It can help us find out the truth about stories we've heard, and can give us a much richer picture of our ancestors' social and economic position. If they owned a house, business premises or rural property there are records to be found, many of which contain a wealth of information.

A leaked AT&T pricing sheet for the southwestern region gives us a good idea of what the carrier plans on charging for the BlackBerry Curve 8900. With a $100 mail-in-rebate, it looks like the 2G device will be going for $199.99. T-Mobile's version of the phone rings up the register at $149.99 after a mail-in-rebate of $100. While no exact date of launch could be found on the sheet, our last report on the subject had a launch date of May 25th. The Curve handset family was the top selling smartphone in the U.S. during the first quarter according to figures released by NPD.

Top prospect Dynamite Charge sustains fatal injuries in workout
DEL MAR, Calif. -- The highly regarded 2-year-old filly Dynamite Charge had to be euthanized Sunday morning after she sustained a catastrophic injury at the conclusion of a workout at Del Mar.
Dynamite Charge had just completed her workout when she was pulled up shortly after the wire, favoring her left hind leg. Trainer Doug O'Neill said she had fractures of the sesamoids and condyle in that joint and that the severity of the injury necessitated her being euthanized.
O'Neill was watching the work with John Moynihan, racing manager for Dynamite Charge's owner, the Stonestreet Farm of Barbara Banke, when the incident occurred. They rushed from the box seats as soon as she was pulled up.
Dynamite Charge, a daughter of Super Saver, won her lone start on July 4 at Santa Anita. Her work on Sunday was her first since that race. She was being pointed to next month's Sorrento Stakes as well as the Del Mar Debutante, both at Del Mar.

Northern and Central California continue to dominate the National Insurance Crime Bureau's latest auto-theft Hot Spots report.
The NICB measured vehicle theft rates per capita for 380 metropolitan areas based on reported 2014 vehicle thefts. While California cities landed in seven of the 10 worst spots, vehicle thefts were actually flat to declining in all of them.
On the other hand, the booming Seattle-Tacoma area zoomed into the top 10 with a 12 percent increase in reported thefts. In the city of Seattle alone, thefts topped 5,400 in 2014, up from about 3,500 in 2012, according to police department records. The city says it's successfully cutting that number by using automated license-plate readers and targeting neighborhoods with the worst records.
A little more than half of stolen vehicles are eventually recovered, according to federal data. (See "What to do if your car is stolen.")
Here are the worst-hit cities for car theft, according to the NICB, compared with their 2013 rankings and total thefts:
2014 car theft hot spots
- San Francisco-Oakland-Hayward, Calif. (29,093) 4 (29,326)
- Bakersfield, Calif. (5,211) 1 (6,267)
- Stockton-Lodi, Calif. (4,245) 5 (4,245)
- Odessa, Texas (886) 12 (764)
- Modesto, Calif. (3,047) 3 (3,565)
- Spokane-Spokane Valley, Wash. (3,032) 7 (3,205)
- Vallejo-Fairfield, Calif. (2,414) 8 (2,540)
- Seattle-Tacoma-Bellevue, Wash. (20,268) 13 (18,128)
- Fresno, Calif. (5,260) 2 (6,750)
- San Jose-Sunnyvale-Santa Clara, Calif. (10,531) 9 (10,925)
For the complete list, see "380 cities ranked for car thefts."Car owners are not insured against theft unless they have bought comprehensive coverage as part of their auto insurance policy. It is typically among the least expensive coverages for most drivers. The most stolen cars tend to be older models taken for their parts value. About 60 percent of drivers buy comprehensive, but the ones least likely to buy it are most likely to need it. According to Insurance.com data, by the time most vehicles are 15 years old, only a third of owners buy comprehensive, and that falls to 20 percent by 20 years old.

Jagdish and Kamla Mittal are well known in a city made famous by the legendary passions of the Nizams of Hyderabad.
The Mittals, who met when they were both students at Santiniketan, moved to Hyderabad after Independence, where they began their quest for the rare treasures of Indian art. Now in their 80s, they have entertained many famous scholars of Indian art from around the world. They have also loaned artefacts from their collection to be featured in books and exhibitions—and have now decided to share them with a larger audience.
The book, Sublime Delight Through Works of Art, is "the largest single gift to the nation," says Jagdish Mittal. He refers to the decision they made to pledge their collection to an irrevocable public trust named Jagdish and Kamla Mittal Museum of Indian Art for the setting up of a museum in Hyderabad.
The trust was created about 30 years ago. There is still no museum in sight. The latest publication, such as the smaller monographs prepared by the Mittals, is meant to whet the appetite of those who have not had the opportunity to visit their home in Hyderabad with a request to see some part of the collection.
For a cause: Jagdish and Kamla Mittal
According to them, it consists of miniature paintings, drawings, textiles, metal ware, terracottas, wood-carvings, glass, ivory and jade objects as well as utensils with metal inlay from the Mughal period. It ranges in vintage from the first century BC to 1900 AD and is a valuable record of the traditional arts and crafts of the subcontinent.
One of the samples in terracotta is of a seventh century female head from Akhnoor, the mouth and chin of the lady moulded with a slight smile that is reminiscent of a Botticelli Venus as well as a Buddhist Tara.
There is something of interest in almost every category. Many of the items have appeared in the monographs of scholars around the world as well as in 'Festivals of India' abroad.
The Mittals were at Santiniketan at a time when the great teachers of the era, the late Nandalal Bose, Benodebehari Mukherjee and Ram Kinker Baij, were in residence. The artists of that period were intent on discovering the roots of Indian art. Jagdish Mittal too began to make his own journey into this world.
After he completed his studies, Mittal was posted to Chamba in Himachal Pradesh to teach painting and drawing. This is a region rich in works of art in the miniature style.
Some of the artefacts in the collection
The late N.C. Mehta, at that time the chief commissioner, was already well known as a collector (his collection may be seen in Ahmedabad) and provided scholarly guidance to the Mittals, who believed that "all great works, whether created by an urban professional artist, craftsman, a tribal or village artist or artisan, can lead to aesthetic exhilaration" (as noted by Naozar Chenoy in the introduction to the book).
The couple also did not have the resources enjoyed by most collectors of that time, such as the British civil servants and their Indian counterparts, who had access to what was in the field, and what was imitated by Maharajas and the rich land-owners who became the elite in the days of the Raj.
The Mittals were perhaps fortunate to be in a place such as Hyderabad. Not only did they have the remains of the Nizam's fabled past to pick through, the region was rich in antiquities from Jain, Buddhist and Hindu sources and also had a thriving rural community base.
The Deccani style of paintings, the printed and embroidered Telia Rumales and the cotton Ikats have all found a place in their collection. In some instances, as in the completely unknown Tirupati style of painting, the Mittals have saved dying traditions from neglect.
While they are invariably gracious in sharing some of their collection, the visitor most often has to establish his or her credentials. It's a bit like having a password to Ali Baba's cave. If you are a dilettante, you get to see only some of the more obviously attractive pieces of work. As the visit progresses and the couple get a sense that you are to be trusted with the treasures that they have so painstakingly garnered and, in many cases, restored after hours of delicate surgery, they bring out the real splendours that lurk within their vault.
Sublime Delight Through Works of Art—edited by Jagdish Mittal; 256 pages, with 200 illustrations; published by Jagdish and Kamla Mittal Museum of Indian Art, 2007.
It makes one wonder about the future of the collection. There are many other examples of the singular obsession that leads to one person, or a family, trying to save the objects around us in the form of a museum.
One thinks of the Gurusaday Museum started by Shri Gurusaday Dutta in Bengal with objects that he collected between 1925 and 1941 on the outskirts of Kolkata, or the Raja Dinkar Kelkar Museum in Pune that was set up by Dr D.G. Kelkar (1896-1990), or even the famous Salar Jung collection at Hyderabad, the main part of which was put together by Salar Jung III, Nawab Mir Yusuf Ali Khan in l951.
Similar is the case of the Calico Museum in Ahmedabad, the Crafts Museum in New Delhi, when it was under the care of Dr Jyotindra Jain, or, in the not so distant past, the Bhopal Museum for folk and tribal arts under the late J. Swaminathan. Once the initial curator has faded from the scene, the place quite often reverts to a state of dismal neglect.
It's clear that what happens in most of these cases, the persons who are in charge of them are completely indifferent to their care and maintenance. Unless there are competent curators, scholars and art enthusiasts who can handle the objects from our recent past with delicacy and passion, these remain dust-covered moth-eaten samples, as dead as the displays exhibited in the majority of our government museums.
In contrast, in places such as Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand and Indonesia, for instance, the preservation and inter-active display of cultural heritage is a priority. Each of the different communities is given due importance. They are visited by tourists of course, but more importantly are the regular visitors, students, families who go to a museum as a Sunday outing, as well as serious scholars.
Until an enlightened state policy is implemented, or the private sector is willing to fund these specialist museums, the 'sublime delight' that the Mittals hope to share will only be equalled by the sublime neglect that is their current fate.
