A friend of mine forwarded me
It's a message from Jama3at ansar al eslam, or the group of the supporters of Islam-Bahrain Branch. They basically swear they're allegiance to Osama bin Laden, and warn of imminent attacks and bombs in Bahrain. They tell all Kufars, Americans, and their supporter to beware, and fall all believers to avoid the following places:
-The residency of the American ambassador
-The American Embassy
-All decadent shopping malls
-University of Bahrain
-Oil pipes in Bahrain
Now at first I was worried. I'm coming back to bahrain mid christmas until after the new year, and that seems the perfect time for a target. Furthermore, all of the above places I do pass by in one way or another. I like going to the desert, especially in winter, and so does the rest of Bahrain. Two of my good friends live in the same area as the American ambassador, and my aunt's house is less than half a mile from the American Embassy, in Abu Ghazal.
Also, what exactly qualifies as a "decadent" shopping mall? I'm sure my definition of decadent, although pretty conservative, does not exactly conform to their definition of decadent. Is decadent anywhere where women and men mix? That would include everywhere! So do Geant, al Makhazen Al Kubra, and Jawad qualify? So what are people to do? Starve??
Clubs and Discos? Well.. It's New Years, so.. no comment.
And why is it University of Bahrain? There are much more "decadent" universities in Bahrain. How about the Canadian University? And why would you exactly target a place of learning? Is it because of the resistance to separating males and females? There are also substantial fraction of the university that are hardcore fundamentalist. Hmmmmm......
Also, I can see how bombing the American embassy or the residency of the ambassador would hurt the Americans, but how would the rest primarily hurt the americans? We pump out insignificant amounts of oil onto the market, and clubs, discos, and shopping malls are attended by bored teens, many of them Bahraini.
Taking a closer look at the site, however, I became much more skeptical. My gut feeling, and I could be wrong (I hope not) is that this is a prank by some guy who has too much time on his hand. The website is just riddled with many spelling and grammatical mistakes. For example, in the header, they call him "shei7" osama bin laden" instead of "sheikh". Moumeneen is also spelled wrong: moumeneyeeen. Then again, these guys are not known to be the brightest guys at school, however, especially if the guy who wrote it is the same guy they're going to dispose off in the suicide attack (you wouldn't waste a good brain, no matter what your beliefs, would you?).
There was another part I wasn't very sure of. They call Osama bin Laden "Hujjat Al Eslam". Now correct me if I'm wrong, and I'm definitely not sure of this, but I thought that was an expression used mainly by shias, not sunnis. I don't know how much Bin Laden would've liked being called that.

Twitter is celebrating its eighth birthday. The 140 character network that started as simple 140-character bursts of plain text today has become a network of connection and revolution. Over the years we have seen how Twitter has evolved to become a medium of self-expression for the common man in very simple ways. Today from politicians to celebrities to brands, everyone appreciates the power of the medium and has adopted it.
With about a billion registered users, Twitter has thanked all of them on its birthday. To make the celebrations memorable Twitter has introduced #FirstTweet which allows you to go back in time and find your first tweet.
Not just that, the Twitter tool also allows you to look for anyone's first tweet. One needs to key in the Twitter handle and the first tweet would be displayed for you.
Good fun news from Twitter after the recent revelations that it might phase out the age old way of Twitter communication using @ symbol.

Union Bailout Update
As you should already know if you opened the earlier email from us, there is some big news on the Persuader Rule front. The DOL has grandfathered in all engagements - including multi-year or long-term - that exist prior to July 1, eliminating the need for reporting where such agreements exist. If you missed that email and want to get this covered, send an email to us and we'll get you taken care of.
The Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals upheld the Speciality Healthcare decision allowing micro units, in a challenge that has spanned 4 years. This is the fourth time an appeals court has enforced the rule. The Fifth Circuit also upheld the Ambush Election rule in a case originating in Texas and brought by a coalition of business groups.
In another appellate court action, the Seventh Circuit, in a decision contrary to two other circuit court rulings (from the Fifth and Eighth Circuit Courts), determined that class action waivers in mandatory arbitration clauses are unenforceable. Until such time as the matter winds its way to the Supreme Court, employers will have to make a decision about such clauses based on what Appellate Circuit they reside in.
The NLRB made it tougher for unionized employers to enroll in the government's E-Verify program by demanding that such a move must be bargained with the union.
The NLRB uncharacteristically chastised a union for threatening employees during a decertification drive. A CWA official told a worker collecting signatures that, referencing legal action, "we're going after y'all personally."
In a unique argument, Microsoft filed a friend-of-the-court brief claiming that the NLRB's revised joint employer standard could severely chill corporate social responsibility programs set up between franchisors and franchisees. The claim was not just hypothetical, but based on a recent unfair labor practice filing involving a sick leave policy requirement with a supplier.
It can be tough to keep up with all the ways the NLRB actions and rulings can impact non-union employers, so it might be helpful to review this article that lists a host of possible impacts, including:
- Social Media Policies
- Off-Duty Access Restrictions
- Class Action Waivers
- Restricting Discussion of Internal Investigations
- Solicitation and Distribution Policies
- Electronic Communications
- At-Will Policy Statements
- Rules Requiring "Courteous" or "Respectful" Behavior
- Outright Bans on Workplace Photography or Recording
- Overly Broad Restrictions on Media Disclosures
- Restrictions on Public Logo Displays
- Overly Broad Confidentiality Rules
- Mandatory Complaint Policies
Big Labors Version of the Facts
The AFL-CIO released another episode of its PayWatch report, purporting to highlight the discrepancy between the pay of the S&P 500's CEOs and the employees of those companies. According to the document, the "average S&P 500 CEO" earned $12.4 million in total compensation.
As is often the case with facts and figures wielded by Big Labor, the facts about the pay discrepancy between CEOs in the US and the "average nonsupervisory worker" is vastly different than made out to be.
The Big Labor propaganda paper claims a 335 to 1 ratio. However, the PayWatch document is only using the top-paid executives on the S&P 500 list, rather than the average pay of all chief executives in the U.S., which clocks in at $185,850. The "discrepancy" then with the average worker is back into the single digits (around 5 or 6 to 1).
The real facts are that over 150 union presidents earned more than the average CEO last year! And this doesn't include the lavish expense accounts not calculated into their benefit packages.
And all of this largess that union bosses enjoy is extracted from the pockets of hard-working union members who have no say in how those bosses spend that money. Unlike most American CEO's, union bosses have very little if any real accountability.
Auto Workers Lying Low
Two UAW leaders were shot outside their union hall. This, after being reelected to their positions in the bargaining unit of Local 551. Both were shot in the leg. The offender has been identified and arrested.
In much less exciting news, the lockout continues at Honeywell with no real end in sight.
After wrapping up negotiations with the Auto Workers at the end of last year, the Detroit Three are prepping for their show in Canada. Unifor, the Canadian union that "represents about 23,500 autoworkers at plants operated by the Detroit Three and another 16,000 employed by automotive suppliers," will begin negotiations with the Detroit Three soon. While faced with many of the same issues – most notably moving production to Mexico – Unifor is taking a slightly different tactic than UAW. They'll be negotiating with all three companies at once. Click here for more details.
SEIU Watch
As we relayed last month, SEIU and AFSCME are considering a merger. This goes back to Friedrichs v. California Teachers Association. Before Justice Scalia died, it looked probable that Rebecca Friedrichs was going to win her case against CTA. This would have set a precedent prohibiting public sector unions from collecting representation dues from nonmembers who worked alongside union members.
SEIU and AFSCME, who together represent 3 million public sector workers, knew this would present a problem for them and began the discussion of joining forces. Though the merger isn't as imminent as it might have been (with the Supreme Court ruling against Friedrichs), the discussion is still on the table. At SEIU's Convention last month, a resolution was presented calling for collaborative effort to continue exploring this option.
In other SEIU/public sector news, another round of layoffs has been issued to state employees in Connecticut as the state works to close a $922 million budget gap. So far the total number of layoffs is over 500 with Governor Malloy saying he expects more than 2,000 positions eliminated in total. This comes after Malloy requested that the state unions (SEIU) give concessions during negotiations back in March…which they didn't. Good call, SEIU.
In the home health world, SEIU is planning a work-around in response to the Supreme Court's 2014 ruling that forced unionization of home care workers was unconstitutional. According to Mark Mix, President of the National Right to Work Foundation, SEIU has two bills on the Illinois governor's desk that would require home health workers to undergo training – by SEIU. The union's very own captive audience meeting. This is the same union that allegedly has yet to repay $32 million in dues they received during their major dues scheme from 2008 to 2014. We say allegedly because it hasn't been confirmed…because a federal judge blocked the class action lawsuit against the union.
- SEIU members are suing their local. After being underpaid for several years of overtime work, instead of standing up for their members (some of whom are owed $10,000), SEIU made a deal with the county.
Former SEIU president and "senior advisor" to Mary Kay Henry, Dennis Hickey Rivera, has been accused of an "influence-buying scheme linking multiple deep-pocketed business executives to Puerto Rico's scandal-plagued governor." Rivera has since hired a P.R. Firm, whose relationship with SEIU has been pretty interesting in itself. Click here for details.
- Last month, we reported that arbitration against Dave Regan began. This month, we report that, due to Regan's sneaky self (click here for a refresher), the arbitrator ordered that SEIU-UHW withdraw its 2016 Executive Compensation Initiative (a measure they spent $5 million on just in the signature-gathering phase). This ruling will be presented to a superior court judge in the coming days for affirmation.
- Earlier this month, 479 school employees in San Diego, California have voted to decertify SEIU Local 221 in favor of their own, independent union.
- One SeaTac resident alleges that SEIU Local 775 illegally registered 1,600 people who voted in the election that passed a $15 minimum wage in the area.
Verizon Strike Ends
After six weeks of striking, nearly 40,000 Verizon employees returned to work earlier this month. Verizon and the unions involved in the strike, Communication Workers (CWA) and Electrical Workers (IBEW), reached a tentative deal that includes a 10.5% raise in worker wages over the next four years, 1,400 added call center jobs, and an increase in pensions. In exchange, the unions agreed Verizon could make changes to its healthcare plans to reduce costs.
Now that Verizon has its workforce back, it intends to focus primarily on boosting their wireless business to keep ground with competitors (details on that here).
Teamster Beat
The Teamsters and Longshoremen always seem to keep things interesting at the ports. Most recently, IBT is heading up a movement to "ban trucking companies from Port property when they illegally misclassify truck drivers" as independent contractors.
In Connecticut, 120 members of Teamsters Local 1035 have been locked out by their employer, Hartford Distributors, after failing to reach a contract during the last four months of negotiations.
Former Local 20 President, Bill Lichtenwald, is leaving his post after a 10-month investigation into accusations of "financial impropriety." Why a person who makes $200,000 a year would feel the need to commit any misconduct for financial gains is beyond us. Perhaps it has something to do with the failing Teamsters Central States Pension fund—which he also served as board member of.
An interim president will be assigned to complete Lichtenwald's post as Local 20 president through the end of this year. He is also expected to resign his other posts as Central States Pension Fund board member, vice president of Teamsters Joint Council 41 (which oversees 24 locals), and president of the Ohio Conference of the Teamsters.

Fight for $15
The Fight for $15 momentum continues as more municipalities consider enacting an increased minimum wage. Washington, D.C. probably comes as no surprise, and Cleveland is now considering the measure.
In New York, similar to the Obamacare health policy penalty, activists are even pushing for a law that would create a penalty for companies that do not pay a "living wage."
As is often the case with issues charged by emotion, facts don't appear relevant to proponents of the movement, or unfortunately even to those public officials making the decisions to implement such a policy. The majority of economists who have weighed in on the issue are concerned that repercussions of a higher minimum wage will be injurious to both large corporations and young workers.
Could Trump Trump Big Labor?
It will come as no surprise as Hillary Clinton begins lining up union endorsements. Those that have already jumped on the bandwagon include:
- The AFL-CIO
- The Bakery, Confectionery, Tobacco Workers, and Grain Millers union (BCTGM)
- The Auto Workers (UAW)
If there is any doubt that Clinton and Big Labor are hand-in-glove, the former national political director of SEIU (Brandon Davis) was appointed as the general election chief of staff at the DNC (Democratic National Committee) and reports to Clinton's campaign.
Meanwhile, Donald Trump is making many Big Labor officials very nervous. There is already a divide developing in some quarters of Democratic contingency as many, especially in the trade unions, have been frustrated by President Obama's rejection of the Keystone pipeline project. Several union presidents have written letters to the AFL-CIO decrying the political agenda of the labor federation. As Steve Malanga of the Manhattan Institute puts it, "The AFL-CIO and the public-sector unions are increasingly becoming an almost-monolithic pro-environmentalist movement within the Democratic Party."
Some Big Labor officials are worried that Trump could cause many former Democrat voters to defect, especially white working-class households.
It could be an interesting campaign season in more than the obvious ways!
Labor Around the World
Unfortunately for France, things didn't settle down much this month. Last week, the police reported at least 75,000 protesters in Paris. Some of which threw stones and makeshift firebombs at police, ultimately causing the police to fire teargas.
The timing couldn't have been worse as protests really picked up in the middle of the country preparing to host the UEFA Euro 2016 Futball tournament. As some workers rallied, cutting off fuel supplies, other workers were simply hoping they'd be able to get ahold of the fuel they needed to maintain and prepare the fields.
In other international news:
- Ekiti (in north Nigeria) workers are protesting their government after the State hasn't been able to pay their salaries in more than five months.
- A Netherlands union is being accused of knowingly hiding the fact that one of the factories their members worked in was exposing workers to asbestos.
- What started as a peaceful protest in Valparaiso, Chili turned violent when rioters started throwing gasoline bombs at buildings during President Michel Bachelet's state-of-the-nation report.
- A recent documentary, Cash for Kim, exposes the harrowing conditions North Korean workers are subjected to by their government.

Motherhood suited Ginny – this was true at least from where Harry stood, concealed in the shadowy doorway watching his wife move slowly about the kitchen. Her hair was pulled back into a careless ponytail, and a number of strands hung free, tumbling down her back. Ginny's face was clear and relaxed, her expression serene, and Harry could hardly imagine she'd ever looked more beautiful.
Certainly it was a far cry from the glamour of their early married life, just a few years earlier, when he, a budding Auror and reluctant poster-boy for the new Ministry and she, a Quidditch superstar and Witch Weekly pinup and were young newly-weds at the forefront of their generation, leading the magical world into a whole new era …
It was a funny thing, really, but Harry could safely say he much preferred obscurity – or at least, the shallow semblance of obscurity that was really the very best he could hope for, being Harry Potter.
Ginny was turning, halfway between the oven and bench top when she froze, wincing. Both hands flew to her stomach and her breathing became more exaggerated, deeply in, and out.
Abandoning all pretenses of not being there, Harry moved quickly to her side, one hand curling around her waist in support while the other moved automatically to her swollen belly. Feeling the baby kick again, Harry pressed his lips to her forehead, smiling in earnest. She relaxed against him with a soft sigh, not betraying even a flicker of surprise. Not for the first time, Harry thought fleetingly of signing her on to train his Aurors, before wistfully pushing that thought aside.
"How long did you know I was there?" he murmured, chuckling.
The baby had settled again, perhaps calmed by the gentle pressure of their wondering hands. Turning to face him, Ginny flashed a sheepish grin.
"How did you know? I was trying to pretend I didn't …"
Harry raised his eyebrows involuntarily, amused. She met his eyes, chuckling too.
"You rely on that Cloak of yours too much, you know," she added teasingly.
Harry hmmmed, and leant over to kiss her softly on the lips.
"I can't help it," he responded humbly, leaning around her to dip his finger into the invitingly full mixing bowl. Ginny was faster; she swatted his hand away playfully with the wooden spoon. Unperturbed, he grinned. "I find you irresistible."
She didn't appear to believe him - that much was obvious. Curiously, though, she didn't seem to mind.
"I do!" he protested as she turned for the baking tray. Quickly, he stole a finger into the bowl before she returned. "Tastes good already."
Ginny set the baking tray down with a soft clang, rolling her eyes. Harry watched her greedily, unable to resist the broad grin spreading across his face. She looked magnificent when she was cross, and there wasn't any danger, because he could see her eyes were dancing affectionately.
"Harry James Potter, get out of the kitchen this instant or so help me, Merlin, I-"
He left readily enough, although not without placing a final, gleeful kiss on her cheek. Ginny did her best to look unmoved.
Harry took the stairs two at a time, not fancying a trip to St Mungos again anytime soon. Instead, he decided that checking on the boys was probably a better use of his time. Pausing by the first door on his right, he peered inside.
Harry and Ginny had chosen the room across the hall from their bedroom for the nursery simply out of convenience. James had been shipped off further down the hallway two-and-a-half years ago, and Ginny had already claimed the nursery for her writing room once Albus was old enough to go the same way. For now, their youngest (although not for long, Harry amended with a smile) was sound asleep in his cot, clearly clueless to the fact he'd officially departed infancy – Harry checked his watch – thirty-two minutes ago.
Harry's eyes were drawn across the room now, taking in the cheerful yellow walls and the lovely arching bay window with white-painted sills. Ginny already had plans to install a window seat there, although this would have to be put on hold for another couple of years or so.
Personally, Harry couldn't see the hurry. After all, their boys seemed to be growing quickly enough as it was…
And speaking of his boys, James was being awfully quiet. Harry was learning to approach this sort of observation with the utmost concern. On more than one occasion already, he and Ginny had been given reason to question the infinite wisdom in bestowing the names of two particularly notorious mischief-makers upon their eldest son. Like his namesakes, a quiet James invariably meant trouble, and upon opening the next door along from the nursery, Harry found his expectations were not disappointed. He sighed, folding his arms.
"Gin? Come up here a moment, will you?"
Her fiery tumble of hair appeared at the foot of the stair.
"Come and see what your son has been up to."
"My son?" She laughed easily but ascended the stairs quickly, making her way towards him with glittering eyes. He felt his breath catch, just a little. She didn't notice.
"How about we call him your son?"
Their gazes locked for an instant. Without missing a beat, Harry turned to frown at the framed photograph hanging on the wall between them, quite prepared to lay blame where blame was due.
"Your grandson," he accused pointedly, but Lily and James simply laughed from the circle of each other's arms, oblivious.
Forgetting himself, Harry swallowed hard, barely registering the warmth of Ginny taking his hand. She squeezed it gently, prompting him back, and he shook his head unconsciously, frowning at the strange sensation burning his eyes.
"So." Ginny's voice was softer now, and full of affection. From the frame beside his parents, a photograph of her siblings circa Christmas 1995 caught his eye. "What has our little terror done now?"
Without the need for preamble, Harry swung the white wooden door open a little further. He heard Ginny's sharp intake of breath and suppressed a chuckle.
"Oh James," she sighed.
On one level, 'our little terror' hardly seemed an apt title. If anything, James Sirius Potter looked entirely angelic curled up in the middle of his bedroom floor, fast asleep. A lock of messy black hair flopped across his forehead – those Potter genes had proved more than a match for the Weasley-red – and his chubby hands were curled into little fists.
On another level, the phrase 'little terror' was entirely appropriate. Surrounding him in an almost perfect arc of destruction were the remnants of what had been several beautifully wrapped gifts. Empty boxes, several toys and books, ribbon and wrapping paper were strewn around him indiscriminately.
Harry suppressed the urge to summon his camera and instead followed Ginny into the room. While she scooped up their precious little rascal and set him on the bed, Harry knelt amongst the scattered presents and made an optimistic attempt to restore them to their former condition. As he'd expected, reparo had very little effect on poor little Albus' birthday presents.
Ginny smoothed James' quilt cover absently, an ironic smile turning the corners of her lips upwards.
"I don't suppose we thought to explain they weren't for him, did we?"
Recalling the general chaos of last Christmas, where James had been invited to open every single present simply for the joy of seeing him gleefully tearing at the wrapping, Harry sighed and shook his head. No, they hadn't thought of that one. He returned Ginny's smile dolefully. They were still learning the ropes with this whole parenting thing, that much was clear.
Ginny sighed again.
"Oh well," she murmured lightly. "It's not as though Al will remember, anyway, I suppose."
"No, probably not," he agreed softly.
Harry loved how easily she bestowed her forgiveness. The children had softened her stubborn streak, certainly. And with namesakes and grandparents and uncles and aunts (and parents) all taken into consideration, Harry really couldn't find it in himself to be too angry with James, either. It seemed that James' problem was genetic – trouble making, that was.
A random thought flitted across Harry's mind, although it was probably triggered by the concept of inheriting genetics, and that whole… general process. He grinned.
"You know, Gin – with the boys both fast asleep and all…"
She raised an eyebrow, doing her best to look coy while he gently pulled her to her feet. They knew each other so well now that it was near useless for her to pretend she hadn't understood him instantly, but he let her pretend anyway. Harry did his best to keep his voice neutral and innocent, drawing his wife from James' room and gently shutting the door.
"Wouldn't want to miss an opportunity, would we?"
Ginny snorted. "Who would have thought that of all things, opportunism would turn out to be the family failing?"
The photographs lining their hallway seemed to confirm his opinion on the matter. Harry pressed his lips to hers, smiling. After all, as family failings went they could probably have done far worse.

How to recover unallocated space?
I'm using windows 7 home basic 32 bit.
For some reasons I need to reinstall it a few weeks ago.
At the time of installation I deleted 'system reserved' & 'local disk C' partitions & install new version of windows.
After installation there is 3mb unallocated space.
How I recover that?
I used many partion managers. but this 3mb unallocated space not recovered yet.
If anyone knows solution to this problem, please help me?

These small unallocated spaces at the beginning and/or end of hard drives are created under various circumstances for "housekeeping" purposes by the OS.
You should leave them alone unless you know what you are doing.
Here is a typical explanation from Acronis:
Re: Small unallocated space automatically created
Hello all, Thank you for choosing Acronis Disk Director.
Please accept our apologies for the delay with the response.
churin, the exact size of the space created is not clear from message.
However, let us explain one thing, it is related to 7,8 MB's of unallocated space on each drive.
There are two situations in which partitioning software (i.e. Acronis Disk Director) can detect an area of unallocated space of up to 7.8 MB in size that was not created there manually:
1. Up to 7.8 MB (minimum of 1MB) of unallocated space resides in the end of the hard disk. This area is reserved by Windows (NT family) operating systems for the purpose of creation of Dynamic Disk structures. This unallocated space area is not shown by Windows Disk Management; however Acronis Disk Director is able to merge it with an adjacent partition. Therefore, after doing that there can be problems with creating Dynamic Disk structures.
2. Exactly 7.8 MB of unallocated space reside in the beginning of the hard disk. Normally this means that there are no Primary partitions on the hard drive and the hard drive contains an Extended partition only. In such cases Windows reserves the minimal amount needed for creating a partition (7.8 MB) in order to be able to handle the only Extended partition properly. It is not recommended to remove this area. Even though technically it is possible to merge it with the Extended partition, this may result in the data on it becoming inaccessible.
Detailed information about Acronis Disk Director product can be found in User's Guide.
Thank you.

Ok guys. I got that.
Yesterday, I went to one my friends home.
I saw there was 9mb unallocated space in his PC & it is new one.
So, now I just decide to ignore this thing.
Thanx for your replies.

This parkland was purchased in 1967 to be used for parks and other public purposes. In 1966, the Mt. McKinley Lions Club purchased play equipment for the park. The park was then named Frontierland Park.
The park was redesigned and rebuilt in 1979, and volunteers from the Lions Club helped to remove the old play equipment to make way for the new equipment.

Optimal femoral head contour segmentation in CT images using dynamic programming
We present a new contour segmentation method for femoral head detection in CT images. The principal idea underlying our approach is to represent the contour using active rays. Each ray has internal energy (continuity and smoothness constraints), as well as external energy (image-oriented edges and global a-priori knowledge). The causal nature of this representation allows a globally optimal, non-iterative solution to be found using dynamic programming. Moreover, even pathological bone structures can be automatically segmented. Several clinical situations on pelvis CT scan with hip degenerative change shows that this approach is more efficient than conventional methods. In this paper, we describe our method and discuss how it can be used to create graphical 3D models of the hip that are suitable for preoperative planning.
Keywords: [VRAI] ; Segmentation ; Dynamic Programming ; Active Rays

Michael Vick left the field in the first half of the Eagles game against the Giants on Sunday with an apparent hamstring injury.
Vick grabbed his hamstring after running with the ball but stayed on the field to complete the Eagles drive. He left the field and was replaced by Nick Foles for the remainder of the game.
Foles kept the lead handed off to him by Vick and added two fourth quarter TD's. The Eagles went on to win 36-21 at New York.
After the game, Philadelphia coach Chip Kelly stated the starting job would remain Vick's as long as he was healthy.

A favorable situation I would say.
I presume that is part of the agreement that Bush hammered out with Musharraf.
Both are gone. Pakistan makes me feel uneasy. I would feel much better if we did not have this current administration.
Aside from Pakistan, how many other situations could you say that about?
I'd make the over/under -- one hundred and fourteen.

Postmistress foils armed raiders with baseball bat
A COUPLE who run a village post office took on masked raiders wielding a 10-inch knife who tried to hold up their shop, a court heard.
Brave Dylan and Debbie Baines behind the counter at Llangernyw post office
Plucky Debbie Baines hit out with a baseball bat before her husband Dylan took over as the two men snatched cash from the till.
The thugs then fled with the help of a disabled getaway driver.
Charles Wall, 21, who had also burgled his parents and grandparents, was jailed for five years at Caernarfon Crown Court, North Wales. Accomplice Darren Teesdale, 28, got three years.
Getaway driver Clarke Shiels, 25, got a nine month suspended sentence and Teesdale's girlfriend Ceri Jones, 26, who was in the car, a suspended sentence of six months.
Accomplice: Teesdale (right) - Jailed: Charles Wall
After the trial, the couple, who own the post office in Llangernyw, near Abergele, both said they would do the same thing again. Mr Baines, 44 said: "I wouldn't let them get away next time."
His wife, 43, added: "I hit one of them with the bat then my husband took it from me. I just wish I'd hit him harder."
Police said the couple showed "great strength of character".

"The unanimous Declaration of the thirteen united States of America,
"When in the Course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another, and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature's God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation.
"We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.–That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, –That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness. Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shewn, that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security.–Such has been the patient sufferance of these Colonies; and such is now the necessity which constrains them to alter their former Systems of Government. The history of the present King of Great Britain is a history of repeated injuries and usurpations, all having in direct object the establishment of an absolute Tyranny over these States. To prove this, let Facts be submitted to a candid world…" [Emphasis added.]
That quoted text is the introductory portion of our United States Declaration of Independence. It was, at the time of it's writing, delivered in our U.S. Congress on behalf of our thirteen existing states on July 04, 1776.
The statements contained in that document refer to our thirteen states, our United States, our newly established national conditions as united expression. Of the states, for the states, from the states, about the states, about the United States and "all men" of the United States (all citizens of the United States of America in those thirteen states as the country was declared to exist at the time of this Declaration). I recognize that as this term was and is applied, that "all men" is used in a universal sense to define our nation's regard for humanity.
The Declaration introductory text is often, recently, misstated, misrepresented and almost always used to present non-citizen privilege to citizen "Rights" as the Declaration identifies them. "All men" in the context of the Declaration of Independence, delivered in our U.S. Congress by an American on behalf of his fellow Americans, speaking to and about "these thirteen states" that was the country at that time, about Americans, about "all men" who are Americans, are citizens of the United States in the case and situation of the Declaration purpose. The significant aspect to the Declaration of Independence was that it was written as an address to and about the British monarchy from the existing thirteen colonies and from subjects of the crown in declaration of change of context, both as individuals and as territory. However, by regarding humanity as creation and work of God, endowed by Him with worth inherent in our individual lives, the Declaration does not thereby excuse or even suggest be excused a supercedence of laws for any one person or all persons in any national context.
So, tonight I heard on FOX's O'Reilly, a fellow identified as "Mark Ensalaco, Ph.D., Political Science Professor, University of Dayton" say this:
— "the Constitution says all people who reside in this country are endowed with inalienable [sic] rights."
Spoken in rationalization of illegal aliens in the United States as possessing by being present in the country the same "'inalienable' [sic] rights" and thereby privileged as are citizens of the United States under "the Constitution."
Except that he did not refer to illegal aliens as "illegal aliens," but as "immigrants" and that they were "Mexicans" and that "militarizing the border" represents an act of "denial" of these "immigrant rights," among many other misstatements of personal opinion represented (that'd be the "political science" of Mark Ensalaco, Ph.D.) presented as, specifically, Constitutional law, Constitutional pronouncement, Constitutional principle.
I am no Ph.D. of "political science" nor no Constitutional attorney but I believe I can read the Declaration of Independence along with our United States Constitution and comprehend the context and the intent and meaning of most of it. I realize the contents are profound and arguable among even the best of the best of legal scholars in our country and elsewhere, but these statements contained in the Declaration of Independence, as I've quoted them above, are specific and straightforward. I recognize that the "all men" reference is ambiguous but I also believe that since the statement was delivered in our U.S. Congress by a representative of the United States of America, speaking on behalf of and about the United States of America, agreed to by fifty-six signatories of the statement — American citizens, all — that the meaning of "all men" was, in this context, about all Americans, as a defining statement of all Americans.
It is not religious doctrine that's declared in the Declaration — that the Declaration pronounces that 'all men" have become specialized, suspended above or beyond responsibility to laws and social requirements — and yet this is the misapplication and manipulated context for which the Declaration is being used by persons seeking to rationalize and continue to enable illegal immigration: that the Declaration endows "all men" with some super-spectacular prestigious ability that thereby sends them flying over and beyond the hurdles that laws and legal requirements present as obstacle to their wants and desires. There's nothing in intent and application in the Declaration of Independence that justifies or even was intended to justify that "all men" would be above legal requirements nor would be privileged to citizenship merely by repeating the text.
I do not read anywhere in that Declaration that to "reside here" was to be an American, contrary to what the Professor from the University of Dayton misquoted from the Declaration as principle upon which he regards anyone "here" — who "resides here" (in the United States), who is here in physical presence — is thereby and therefore a citizen of the country and/or an American in the context defined by the Declaration of Independence.
In fact, within the context of the Declaration of Independence, to assume that to "reside here" qualifies one as being those to whom the Declaration refers, is to defy the Declaration itself, given that the Declaration of Independence existed to identify the United States of America as independent of British monarchy rule and government. Persons not of the United States would not be in need nor would be necessarily seeking independence from the British monarchy since they would not necessarily nor inherently be subjects of the monarchy prior to the Declaration of Independence. In fact, most from elsewhere other than the British empire were subjects of Spain or France; they may have "reside(d) here" at that time but unless they were then subjects of the British monarchy and yet in residence in the United States, their presence would be nonsensical in that context of the Declaration.
I believe the entire point of the Declaration was to say, 'we have been subjects of the British monarchy and this place has been "these Colonies" as property of the British crown, but we now are no longer subjects of the Monarchy and declare our independent nation accordingly in this place we now define as the thirteen states, these thirteen United States of America.'
Within the ongoing problem of illegal aliens who are in the United States at this time and persist in arriving here by various illegal means, irregardless of various laws of the U.S. that forbid their behavior and those who involve with them in various degrees….these are illegal acts and those engaging in them are illegal aliens.
They may "want to work" and very well may "work" in the United States, but the argument that they are necessary and needed by the U.S. as available cheap labor is also a violation of principle to many Americans because who and what is "cheap labor" to some employers is quite expensive to support by American taxpayers. And, that "cheap labor" once "at work" will remain "cheap" only so long as those "cheap laborers" continue to participate in "cheap" wages and conditions, all again at the expense of American taxpayers and to the denigraton of many of our national resources and conditions by that "cheap" process — "cheap labor" as resource for some is expensive to support for everyone else and by that, the labor is not so "cheap" after all but is exploitive of everyone else.
So, the concept of "Guest Workers" is then introduced to explain away the illegalities involved by those who are in the country illegally. They become "workers" and "immigrants" and "migrants" and anyone who objects to their illegalities is deemed to be "anti immigrant," just as the Declaration of Independence — our country's regal document establishing our very terms as a nation — is reduced to misquotes and a manipulation of terms to suit and accommodate 'the market" that is irreverant to the heart and soul of what the United States is all about: a nation of laws. Mostly I think it 's manipulated to accommodate political interests but those are not, in my view at these times, the best interests of the country as to inspiration nor as to leadership for a better future and conditional improvements of our present.
No, these mashings of our very founding principles are the wiggle-room, mumbo-jumbo mushings of the English language that are corroding confidence in every single political figure and representative of illegal aliens — by whatever name — in the perceptions of most Americans.
And, as if that's not bad enough, here is the dreadful lowered standard of language (and perception as indicated in the statement and language themselves) that a member of our present-day United States Senate has to say about his peers: "…(Colorado Senator Ken Salazar), elaborating on what it would take to pass new immigration laws in both the Senate and the U.S. House, Salazar said he hoped that 'the president can himself weigh in and try to make sure that the House crazies don't derail a workable immigration reform package.'"
"Immigration reform" is not synonymous with "curtailing/preventing illegal immigration." The point from Salazar's perspective (as also from some others) is that illgal immigration be "reperceived" in a comfortable fashion contrary to our United States context of laws, and that legislation be manipulated to accommodate that reworking of legal context, and worse, to punish and ridicule those who refer to reality otherwise. No one is then "illegal" but is in fact "an immigrant" despite our immigration laws and despite the inabilit or refusal by many to observe them — most Americans want to know why our laws are ignored and even disdained and think that indicates a poor candidate for citizenship among those refusing to participate in a legal process.
And, most wonder if the sensibility and civic awareness of other countries are grander than our own such that ours must adopt theirs, why so many come to the U.S. at all — the bare truth here is that they aren't seeking citizenship and thus, they are not immigrating legally and are not behaving legally once they're here and many have no plans to do so. People such as Salazar (among others) want increased accommodaton for all of that and decreased respect for the laws of the United States and it sure seems to be racially motivated based upon people such as Salazar and the many statements he has made in that regard. Call it "open borders" but I call it anarchy and the undermining of our very founding principles themselves.
Our Declaration of Independence — that glorious and intelligent work by inspired, studious and creative individuals braving enough originality to create a new and unique form of government — is today reduced to missquotes and manipulations to enable illegal behaviors and to attempts to shame Americans who will not engage in those illegalities by support or direct contribution to what they find offensive.
The Declaration of Independence ALSO says, however, this:
"…But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security. — Such has been the patient sufferance of these Colonies; and such is now the necessity which constrains them to alter their former Systems of Government. The history of the present King of Great Britain is a history of repeated injuries and usurpations, all having in direct object the establishment of an absolute Tyranny over these States. To prove this, let Facts be submitted to a candid world…"
President Bush and Senator Salazar and various professors of poltical science, all included here with a noticable daliance and relationship with Mexico, should take note. Perhaps it is Mexico we Americans should change but first, we need to militarize our Southern border. And then we need to deport illegal aliens and prevent more from entering the United States.
And then President Bush or a later Administration can propose a "Guest Worker" program that solicits "workers" where they live and organizes a legal process by which "workers" — if that's, indeed, what they are — can apply, be approved by and then complete a "Guest Worker" stint in the United States and then return home. Because that's not going to happen without a certain degree of law enforcement and militarizing our Southern border, specifically, as made necessary by ongoing failure by "migrants" and "guests" who don't or won't ask permission to enter before they walk in the back door.

I'm fairly new to HubPages, and I'm trying to figure out how to get my hub scores higher. My first hub did fairly well, along with a couple of my slightly humerous hubs. But my informative ones aren't doing so great. Any suggestions?
The first and the most important one - forget about your hubscore. You are smart enough to get to 100 zone pretty soon without any special effort
I still can't seem to understand why the sillier hubs do better than my serious ones. Is no one interested in real information anymore? o_O Maybe it's because my most serious hub's about dog breeding... lol That could be, I suppose, but it is extremely informative, even though it all came from my head. Perhaps people prefer hubs with more links and references and blahdeblah than stuff I come up with. Anyone else understand that?
Kika: I just checked your hubs and wow, you are off to a great start. I like your writing style, the way you format your text, and use of pictures, so of course I became your fan.
The hubscores are not "grading" your ability to write, its a combination of many things; the traffic to your hub, how many thumbs up you have, your participation in the forums, reading hubs where you leave comments and so on... maybe you will get more input from the senior hubbers. As Misha says don't worry about the score, just keep writing!
Hello everyone. I just joined HUB a few days ago. I've posted 4 articles. What does the number in the lower right hand corner of my picture mean? Thanks.
Maddie, who is Hubpage's moderator, posted this FAQ; the answer on hub scores is in line 14:
I read your profile, and see you are a New Yorker, I lived there most of my life (I am now in Oregon) and also attended Hunter College in the 70's.
Actually your hubscore will stay low until you stop posting substandard duplicate content
Don't feel bad, I thought that number was like, some randomly-generated ID thing.
The number in the lower right corner of your profile picture is your personal score on Hubpages. It's like your rank. The higher the number, the higher your rank. Since you're new, your score's still low. Keep writing hubs and posting on the forum and it will go up.
Aw, Misha, that's not a nice thing to say. Did you even look at her hubs? They're short, yeah, but they're interesting. And it's not like none of us have ever had duplications with our hubs; people write about what they like/dislike/know, and a lot of people like/dislike/know stuff other people like/dislike/know too. Take a look at the Requests page and you'll find dozens of hubs for one question, and they'll all basically say the same thing (with a few exceptions).
I think she's got some real talent, and if she could put more of her know-how into one hub, she'd get better scores.
Yes, I did take a look at her hubs, and that's why I posted my opinion. Nice or not - it's how things are. Her hubscore will not grow anywhere close to yours unless she fixes the length of hubs and duplicate content. I bet yours was at least into 60s after five days.
lol My hubscore is seriously baffling. Let's not go into that.
I suppose you're right. It wouldn't hurt for her to write about something other than weight loss, though the one about "good girls" was kind of unique.
I just found a hub that had a score of 90, but the content was so confuddled I could barely read through it without wanting to yank it off the screen and fix the exuberant amount of English errors it has. How can a hub that is so poorly written get such a high hub score?
And another thing: it makes me sad that I don't have a lot of comments on my hubs. I like feedback! And I like talking to people! It's so not fair. :'(
Well, here is one of the copies of her "good girls" http://ezinearticles.com/?Nice-Girls-Fi … id=1341418
There are at least five more
And your comments will come with your growing fanbase, don't worry
But... But I like talkiiiiing! D: lol
Are they all hers? I know some people who post their articles on other websites.
That article's hers. It's her name, according to her profile, anyway. Like I said, some people post their articles on other websites, along with Hubpages, in hopes of getting more clicks and readers.
Well, it's not a question of plagiarism, it's a question of duplicate content. Out of all the pages available on the Internet with the same content search engines pick ONE to display. Hubpages want to be displayed, so they require unique content. It does not matter if content is yours or not - if it is found elsewhere on the Internet, it is duplicate, and it gets penalized.
Really? I didn't know that. I thought they targetted plagiarism more than duplication. That's enlightening!
Ooh! Hey! Have you read my latest hub <snipped link - please do not post unsolicited links to hubs in the forums>? I have to admit, it's pretty freakin' awesome. Then again, I wrote it... lol I can be so full of myself sometimes, but oh, do I love me. xD
Now you are walking a thin line. If I was not in such a relaxed mood, I would said you just spammed
lmao! Spam is for those who don't know how to promote correctly.
I don't like to spam, and I try very hard not to spam. But it was for you to view, since I wasn't sure if you'd seen it yet. And you know it was funny and worth reading. ;D lol
Did I mention I'm full of myself?
Yep, Joe, I'm checking on it every Saturday, while you are in the pub
You can check it out, too - http://hubpages.com/hub/Please_Rate_My_ … aked_Chest
In response to your original question, you can check out darkside's awesome hub on HubScore, in which he gathered together snippets of info from all over the site, including the many times Paul and Jason and I have answered questions about this in the forums. (This, among other links to answers of questions commonly asked in the forums, is available on the pink sticky thread at the top of this forum.)
Hope this helps!
Thank you Maddie! I saw a thing earlier tonight about how hubscores are generated. I'm glad someone's not thinking dirty tonight (Misha and Joe! ) and is in a helpful mood! Thank you again! ^_^
Oh! I didn't even notice. Sorry Maddie! I didn't think it'd be spam. lol I should've listened to you when you said it, Misha! My bad. ^_^;

2012 has been a year of blistering heat, wildfires, and drought throughout much of the United States. With the specter of climate change looming, experts believe such extreme weather events will only become more common. As temperatures increase and population grows, demands on the already strained power supply will lead to increased occurrences of brownouts and rolling blackouts.

Although the cover to Iron Maiden Live!! + One is unfamiliar and for all intents and purposes seems to resemble a bootleg, it was actually an official release for Japan, and given an extended release (with bonus tracks) in the Greek territory a few years later. This is a review for the Japanese edition, which is about as easy to track down these days as a virgin named Mary, so you may have to let your fingers do the walking to experience it. But, as this is not the de facto Paul Di'anno live recording, and the studio track is one you can hear elsewhere, it's hardly worth the trouble...
As the blatant title would infer, this features a few live tracks, and a single bonus studio track. "Sanctuary" is taken from the single of the same name (and a bonus track on the re-issue of the debut Iron Maiden), sort of a Maiden equivalent to a "Born to Be Wild", lacking some of the intricacies of their other, early material, but still featuring great bass and a nice melodic break later in the track. After a brief banter, they break into "Phantom of the Opera" from the debut, which sounds extremely good here, a burst of excessive force which could leave the majority of other NWOBHM upstarts in the dust. "Drifter" is likewise entertaining, quite a lot like "Sanctuary" in tone but with that killer opening guitar phrase. "Women in Uniform" is the studio track, a cover of the Skyhooks original, which has appeared in several places, including its own single, a fun melodic rocker with some goofy lyrics that feel perhaps a little too rock, especially with Di'anno's often overbearing edge.
And that's all there is to it. I would imagine a collector would be interested in owning both versions of this EP, but if you're actually hunting it down for content purposes, the Greek version might be the better value, as it includes live versions of "Prowler", "Running Free", "remember Tomorrow", "Innocent Exile", and "I've Got the Fire". Most of these are included with the extended fan version of the Maiden Japan EP, though, and if you're seeking the ultimate live session between Paul Di'anno and his alma matter, track that down instead. Live!! + One is not unpleasant, it's just irrelevant.
This EP was released in the same year as Maiden's debut, and so it contains two songs off that ('Sanctuary' and 'Phantom of the Opera'), the song 'Drifter' which would appear as a studio recording on 'Killers', and 'Women in Uniform' from the previously released single of the same name.
The performances on the live recordings are fairly good and sound a lot like in the studio. Paul Di'Anno's voice is in top form and he hits every note perfectly, while the two guitarists play every riff to perfection and improvise on the soloing. The drums are competent as is the bass. While they have too long a silence in the middle of Sanctuary and they extend the soft part in Drifter for far too long, they still play to perfection most of the time.
The extra studio track, Women in Uniform, is a fun rocker which is fairly typical of the NWOBHM movement. It has some great riffing combined with catchy choruses. It does get a bit repetitive but overall it's a good track.
As for the production, it brings the EP down a bit. While this is not as prominent on the studio recording, it affects the live recordings to some degree. The sound is muffled and doesn't really capture the live atmosphere that well. Crowd noise is kept to a minimum, which can either be a good or bad thing depending on preference. I myself don't mind it much, so that aspect is fine. The mix is similar to what was seen on Killers, with all instruments being heard clearly.
If you happen to stumble across this (which would be unlikely nowadays) I would definitely recommend purchasing it. It shows a young energetic band fresh off the release of their debut album tearing it up in a small club with an energetic crowd. A fun little EP from one of the masters of the NWOBHM movement.

Dulce De Leche Filling..what Does It Taste Like?
Decorating By sweetcravings Updated 23 May 2009 , 8:18pm by tonimarie
Another question...do you think if i added this to my buttercream and whipped them together it would hold up and not separate?
Another question...do you think if i added this to my buttercream and whipped them together it would hold up and not separate?
Yup. Sometimes I do this when I don't have enough dulce de leche to fill a cake. The proportions can change depending on how much DDL I have to begin with but generally I'd say I mix about 50% DDL to frosting. I use an all butter mousseline and it holds up well.
I make DDL using the "boiling the canned condensed milk" method. I like it thick and dark. At this stage it's usually too stiff to spread so i thin it out with either the mousseline, with whipped cream or with ganache. The ganache is by far the yummiest and most sinful. Yum yum
Well, I filled my most recent cake with this and it was an ABSOLUTE hit! EVeryone was gushing over how goooood it was. I personally prefer to eat it by the spoon ;0) The vanilla cake just soaked up all the yummy goodness and it made it incredibly moist. Love this dulce...definitely a keeper.
DDL and almost any BC miz incredibly well...I use my fav. BETTERCREME and oh boy! is that good! Never seperates and tastes wonderful. Pure DDL is a bit too thick for my liking so it is much better to lighten it up with some BC.
About six months ago I read about this technique in Gale Gand's cookbook. I made three cans (same pan) and let them simmer for 3 hours per her instructions. When I opened the can, the milk was slightly thicker than normal but a very very light tan color...not the caramel color I expected. Any thoughts about that? Also, after doing that, I canned what I didn't need. Any ideas how long it will last that way?
The longer you cook it, the darker and thicker it will get. The first time i made it, boiling it in a pot method i stood the cans upright and they were covered just slightly with water, light caramel color and that was three hours of cooking. The second time i layed the cans on their sides, and covered them very generously with water, as high as i could get the water without it spilling out of the pot. Occassionally rolling them around during the three hour cooking. That time the dulce was much darker and thicker.
If you have already opened the cans and you want it darker i would use some of the other methods used for cooking discussed in this thread..microwave, double boiler etc.. to get it where you need it. I would think this would be good for some time. This is what i found online...
Opened canned milk should be immediately transferred to a clean glass or plastic container, covered and stored in the refrigerator. It should be used within 3 weeks of opening. If you dont consume the opened milk during these weeks, it is possible to freeze it (the earlier the better). The storage time of frozen milk at 18 °C amounts approximately 3 months. For reusing defrost milk in the refrigerator over night. If it contains a lot of fat, it is important when defrosted to give it a good shake to remix the fatty and watery parts.
For further information you should contact the manufacturer.
Any idea how long it will keep in the can unopened once it is cooked?
thinking about trying the microwave method, thanks!
Unopened in the fridge you should be good for atleast 4-6 months.
CourtnChris, the microwave method WORKS!
I am on my way to the store right after work and going home to try the microwave and boiling method. Mmmm. I'm eating my rabbit (diet) food right now and my mouth and tummy are growling at me. (not to mention the drool going down my face....)
Hi Ladies!! I just saw this post! Guess where I got my nick??
Dulce de leche is close to caramel in tasting... It is a milk based spread and it is a MUST in every cake in ARGENTINA (my home country).
It comes in two formats: regular and REPOSTERO (for decorators) which is a firmer version that is thick and perfect for filling as a cake and piping. I wouldn't bother making it myself with the condensed milk or any other recipe. I suggest you go to a latin store that has argentinian products. Sometimes they carry the REPOSTERO type. It's about $5 a pound. If not, the regular one is ok.
To me, the one that taste the best are the ones manufactured in Argentina, but you will see others coming from Chile, Uruguay...
In cakes we use it with flaky fillo dough, meringues, mixed with whipped cream, mixed with cocoa, praline, nuts, almonds... you name it! It is very sweet.
It will be ok a couple of days out of the fridge in not so hot weather.
Please let me know if you have more questions, I was raised eating dulcedeleche!!!!
dulce....pls tell me more about using it with phyllo dough...this sounds like a great idea.
dulce....pls tell me more about using it with phyllo dough...this sounds like a great idea.
Ok... I'll try to make it short.
Rogel or "mil hojas" (thousand layers) is a traditional argentinian dessert. It has a flaky dough called hojaldre with many layers of dulce de leche... sweeeeeet It looks like this
http://www.flickr.com/photos/[email protected]/306935403
Some people prepare the rogel 1" thick and put it as a layer filler in a cake. You have to be careful not to put too much syrup on your cake or you'll loose the flakiness.
I said filo dough because it is a good substitute or also empanada dough rolled very thin. The dough is baked first and then layered with dulce de leche (once it is cold)
THe real hojaldre dough is a type of pastry dough that it is rolled many times and folded adding butter in each fold (hard work).
I hope I was clear. Please ask if I was not!
Dulce..thanks so much for the instructions and pic...it looks so good. I'm definitley going to try this the next time i have to make a special desert.
THAT cake looks scrumptious..thanks for posting! It looks like a cross between a bakhlava and cake....ummmmm. So dulche...have I understood this correct- you make the layers and then when it is about 1" thick you but it inbetween 2 layers of cake as a filling? (The photo looks like the entire thing is a pie and there is no cake to be seen, hence the confusion!) Thanks!
The photo is the rogel dessert in itself (by the way the white frosting that goes on top is meringue that is put some minutes in the oven to crust and cook).
Some people incorporate this dessert in between layers of cakes. So you can make it 1" to 2" thick and put it in between layers. Just be careful not to put too much syrup on your cake or will soak the flaky layers and they won't be flaky anymore.
I am going to try to find the recipe and translate it into English.
Ok, I found this blog that has pictures of how the rogel dessert is done. You can skip doing the dough by either using filo dough or "empanada" dough rolled thiner (you can buy this at a latin grocery store).
Ask me if you need more clarification
The white icing is italian swiss meringue
Thanks Dulche...looks easy enough, the layers look more like crisp breads than phyllo but I think the phyllo might end up tasting alot better especially in the middle of the cake. Can't wait to try~!
Yes, I like the layers thin and flaky, so filo is better... specially if you are going to put it in between a cake
I tried the microwave method, work very well. Tried it once regular and once with cocoa powder mixed in for a chocolate variation. The longer I cooked it the thicker it got...my question is does that happen when you boil the entire can??? My husband (my top taste tester!) thinks it would be better if it were thinnier so it would seep into the cake layers instead of sitting on top......just wondering what you all think
tonimarie,...the longer you cook it the thicker it does get with the boiling can method too..so, if you are looking for it to be thinner just cook it less. Of course, then it will be lighter in color. I made a cake with dulce filling, cooked for three hours the boiled method and layered it between my cake. The next day when we served it the dulce had completely soaked into the vanilla cake. I was surprized because it was thick when I first spreaded it on.
sweetcravings-thank you. We actually ate the cake the same day as I made it, next time we'll wait a day for the dulce to sink in

I love Zooey Deschanel. Love.
I also love 500 Days of Summer (and you should to – fantastic movie).
I mostly admire Zooey for two things: 1. Her hair. 2. Her style. So, for all reasons, I was excited when the girls over at Wedding Chicks shared that you, too, can have Zooey's dress from 500 Days of Summer. And, in any color you'd like. All thanks to the fabulous Etsy seller Shauna's World. It'd be a great shower dress, rehearsal dinner dress, or even wedding dress.

AND, if you're a big She & Him fan, and in St. Louis at the end of August, you can catch her performing at LouFest.

Domain administrators can automatically install GoToMeeting on multiple computers using the GoToMeeting MSI. This is a very convenient way for administrators of a network domain to deploy and install the GoToMeeting desktop app to thousands of users or computers throughout the network.
To deploy GoToMeeting to multiple computers, domain administrators can create a group policy object (GPO) and link it to the network using the domain controller (Windows Server).
Organizers may have multiple versions of GoToMeeting installed on their computer, but the active version is set by the LogMeIn server (and may vary by account). To run sessions using the version installed by the MSI, organizers' accounts must have the same version set on the server.
On a Mac? You can install via DMG.
Note: Installing via MSI is an advanced feature that requires administrator-level permissions on the target computer(s). Once GoToMeeting has been installed by a domain administrator, by default the automatic upgrades feature will be used to get updated versions as they are released and remove older ones (i.e., it is not necessary to install subsequent version updates via MSI). Each organizer can change this setting if desired, unless the domain controller applies a GPO preventing it from being modified. Using SCCM or another tool to install the MSI on the SYSTEM Level does not allow for the setting flags to be modified.
Downloading the desktop app is available on paid plans only. Learn more.
The detailed MSI Installation Guide will also be included in the .ZIP file.
Note: If you do not have sufficient permissions to install software onto your computer and instead need the assistance of an IT Administrator to do so, then your IT Admin should ensure that you are also running the latest version of the GoTo Opener. See What is the Multi-User Launcher/Opener MSI? to learn more.
|GoToMeeting desktop app
|Windows 7 or later
|Version v8.16.0, b7881 (latest build!)
|Install MSI
|Version v8.12.1, b7882 (minimum build)
|Install MSI
You can use the Install Manager & Client Setup Wizards to install GoToMeeting on a Xen environment. Detailed instructions will be included in the installation package.
Note: Audio and recording features are supported with GoToMeeting installed in XenDesktop environments, but they are not supported in XenApp environments.
No – in most cases, it is not at all necessary for you to install via MSI. The GoToMeeting desktop app does not require administrative rights in order to be installed, so you should be able to easily download and install it on your own computer.
We simply provide the MSI file as a convenient way for IT Admins to distribute GoToMeeting to the computers in a network domain. In addition, organizers who experience difficulties installing via the regular EXE file may have better success using the MSI.
No – it takes care of itself! Once you install the GoToMeeting desktop app on a computer, it will automatically update itself (without needing to re-install with MSI). By default, the desktop app is set to perform silent updates while the user is not in a session.
If you do not want proactive updates to be used or older versions to be removed, you can disable automatic updates. See Use Automatic Updates to learn more!

Arrival in Taos
Taos Travel Blog› entry 9 of 25 › view all entries
I set the GPS for Taos and it was sending me far south even though I could see on the map display what appeared to be a much more direct route via NM 567. I decided to follow that route and set off . Once I turned onto 567, the GPS dutifully picked up the scent and started giving directions for that route. Soon, I could see Taos in the distance up against the mountains. Unfortunately the one little detail I'd overlooked was the Rio Grande Gorge! The emphasis is on gorge. It's absolutely daunting and the attached picture doesn't come close to doing it justice! Suddenly, we reached the rim and the road turned to gravel as it started winding downward into the gorge. There was no guardrail and the road was narrow and rough.
Thinking we might like it better out of town, we passed through Taos and looked for some B&B's and hotels up towards the ski valley but saw nothing we liked so returned to Taos and the Fechin Inn. Having unloaded the luggage, we walked to Taos Plaza to have a look around. The area is really quaint but we were too tired and frustrated to enjoy it. Coming across the Kit Carson Museum, we stopped for a visit and were greeted by a 4th generation niece of Kit Carson. The museum is in what was once Carson's home; it is small but quite interesting. We asked about a restaurant and the young lady recommended Michael's Kitchen, across the street from our hotel. Michaels serves basic food but service was fast and friendly and the food was plentiful and very inexpensive.
Back in the room, we spent the rest of the evening trying to figure out what to do for the balance of the week. All in all, this was not a great day!

Meet Your New Governor - William L. Guy: A Profile
It was during World War II. William Guy had completed the Navy's midshipman school at Notre Dame University and, as an ensign, was assigned to the destroyer, the USS William D. Porter in January 1943. While in the Pacific, one day Guy looked up and saw a Japanese airplane zeroing in on his ship. It smashed into the destroyer, tossing Guy 20 feet in the air. He was shaken but not injured. His ship, however, sank.
This was a harrowing experience for the young North Dakotan who would become the state's 26th governor. The war had interrupted his studies at the University of Minnesota where he was pursing a master's degree in agricultural economics. Agriculture seemed to be in the Guy family blood. His father became Cass County's agricultural extension agent in 1922 when William was two years old. The Guys lived close to the Agricultural College, and his father became the school's foremost sports fan.
In 1926 the senior Guy took the position as manager of the Chaffee estate which consisted of 26 farms. Young William Guy grew up in and around the small town of Amenia. After graduating from high school in 1937, Guy headed off to the Agricultural College where he, of course, studied agriculture.
After the war he and his wife, Jean, settled down to farm near Amenia. Even though there were not many Democrats around Amenia, in 1958 he won election to the North Dakota House of Representatives where he served as assistant minority leader in a legislature where there were not many Democrats.
When in 1960 at age 40 he received the gubernatorial nomination on the newly merged Democratic-Nonpartisan League ticket, most people did not give him much of a chance against the well-organized and well-financed Republican party. But he won, demonstrating that North Dakota had become a two-party state.
