Tarragon Cheese Loaf
The distinctive taste of tarragon seasons this savory layered bread from Sheryl Hurd-House of Fenton, Michigan. "I like to use a round loaf of sourdough," she notes. Warm wedges are especially good with spaghetti or lasagna.
- 1 unsliced round bread (1 pound)
- 1/4 cup butter, softened
- 2 tablespoons minced fresh tarragon
- 1 cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese
- 2 cups shredded Parmesan cheese
- 1. Slice bread horizontally into thirds; remove top section and set aside. Spread butter over the bottom and middle sections; sprinkle with tarragon and cheeses.
- 2. Reassemble loaf; tightly wrap in foil. Bake at 350° for 25 minutes or until cheese begins to melt. Let stand for 5 minutes. Cut into wedges.

I tried this recipe since I had some extra tarragon I need to use up and it did not disappoint. While I was assembling, I was worried that it was cheese overload but once it baked, the melted cheese/bread ration was just right.

I am kicking myself for not trying this years ago! It is tasty and so good with pasta. I used sourdough upon the recommendation.

IBM shoots higher and lower with x86 Flex Systems
Plus: Expansion node for GPUs, flash, and other goodies
Adding in GPUs, flash drives, what else?
This expansion node is only supported on the new Flex x220 node using the Xeon E5-2400 processor and the existing Flex x240 node using the Xeon E5-2600 processor. The expansion connector on the x220 and x240 nodes hangs off of the second processor socket in these machines, so you have to have both Xeon E5 CPUs installed in the node to use the PCI expansion chassis.
An interposer cable runs from the server node to the expansion node, which then links into a PCI-Express 2.0 switch on the board. This switch has two x16 links to two mezzanine I/O ports for extra I/O into the backplane of the Flex System chassis; it also has two x16 links and two x8 links to peripheral slots.
Note: These do not run at PCI-Express 3.0 speeds, which basically double the bandwidth over PCI-Express 2.0 slots, and the mezz cards in the expansion node will also run at PCI-Express 2.0 speeds. You can plug in PCI-Express 3.0 cards and run them in 2.0 mode, however, which will impede performance in many cases.
In any event, you have two full-height, full-width PCI-Express x16 slots on the left and two low-profile x8 slots on the right. There's enough power in the card to support four low-profile, two full-height, or one double-wide PCI-Express peripherals in each expansion node.
Physically, you should be able to get two x16 peripherals and four x8 low-profile peripherals in the node. There's only room, power, and cooling for one Nvidia Tesla M2090, which is not a lot, but you can use the other two low-profile slots on the other side with one M2090 in there.
Four Xeon E5s in a double-wide pod
The Flex System x440 is the x86 companion to the Power7-based p460 node, and it uses the Intel C600 chipset and the two QuickPath Interconnect ports per socket to glue four of them together into a shared memory box that can handle much larger workloads than the two-socket variants can.
The Flex x440 double-wide, quad-socket server node
IBM is supporting the versions of the Xeon E5-4600 processors with four, six, or eight cores in the box, and it looks like IBM is supporting all eight possible options processor-wise, which is something that it probably would not be able to do in a BladeCenter machine because of the skinniness of the blades. (Oddly enough, you could get the same seven four-way servers into the same 10U space.)
The Flex System x440 machine has a dozen memory slots per socket like other E5-4600 machines to deliver up to 1.5TB of memory capacity using 32GB load-reduced DIMM (LRDIMM) DDR3 memory sticks. The machine needs a lot of space for the processors and memory, and therefore it only has room for two 2.5-inch disk drives instead of the four you might expect.
IBM no doubt expects customers to use Storwize V7000 disk arrays for application and systems software storage and only use local disks for the server node operating system (if that). In many cases, customers will just put flash storage in these bays to boost I/O performance and leave everything on external disks.
Internals of the Flex x440 server node
The machine has two Emulex BE3 LOM interfaces, each with two 10 Gigabit Ethernet ports, on the motherboard, and if you don't want to use the integrated 10GE ports you can buy a variant of the machine without them (presumably at a lower cost).
The server node has four mezzanine cards that link the server to the midplane of the chassis and then out to the integrated switches. Each mezz card has one x16 and one x8 connection running at PCI-Express 3.0 speeds. The same flash kit that is available for the x220 node is also available on the x440 node, but it will not be available until October 18. The x440 itself ships on August 24.
The two Flex System nodes can run Microsoft Windows Server 2008, Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5 and 6, and SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 10 and 11. VMware's ESXi 4.1 Update 2 and ESXi 5.0 Update 1 hypervisors are also supported on the nodes. Pricing information was not available at press time for the new iron. ®

Morocco: Morocco withdraws reservations to CEDAW
The long-awaited move drew praise from civil society; the women's movement had made repeated calls for officials to take the necessary steps to apply the convention in Morocco.
Professor and researcher Malika Benradi noted that Morocco ratified the convention in 1993 with reservations, refusing to enforce any clauses opposing national or Islamic law. For example, Benradi explained that Article 9 deals with the right of a mother to transmit her citizenship to her children; a form of discrimination that Morocco abandoned in 2007.
Article 16 states that both spouses are equal at the moment of, during, and after the dissolution of a marital union. For example, under Moroccan law, there is no true equality between the spouses in terms of providing for one's household, which is solely the husband's duty. Benradi noted that "the retraction of reservations allows for progress, but it is already being debated, particularly with regards to religious issues such as inheritance."
Minister of Social Development, Family and Solidarity Nouzha Skalli expressed her satisfaction with the King's message. In her view, the move confirms Morocco's desire to be forward-looking in terms of women's rights. She added that "the withdrawal of the country's reservations coincided with a number of other plans launched by Morocco," and "the country is well on the way to becoming an upholder of human rights."
The Moroccan Human Rights Organisation likewise welcomed the move. "Arrangements need to be put in place to enforce this international convention," said the president of the organisation, Amina Bouayache. She added that "Morocco now finds itself in a new set of circumstances. Other initiatives must also be taken, in particular reforms to the constitution and domestic law regarding civil rights and other forms of equality."
Khadija Riyadi, president of the Moroccan Human Rights Association, commented, "The Family Code needs to be amended, especially with regards to those articles that discriminate against women." She added that examples of discrimination pertain to "marriage with foreign nationals, the fact that legal guardianship is always granted to a child's father, inheritance, and polygamy."
The president of the Union for Women's Action, Nezha Alaoui, noted that in withdrawing its reservations, Morocco "has removed all barriers to the establishment of full equality between men and women in the areas of economic, social and political law."
The president of the Democratic Women's Rights League, Fouzia Assouli, said that "the move was a minor revolution in terms of establishing the principle of equality between men and women – a principle for which the women's movement has fought for many years."
However, not everyone was pleased with the king's announcement. Mustapha Ramid, head of the Justice and Development Party's group in parliament stated that issues pertaining to Islamic law cannot be replaced. "We cannot lift all reservations to the point of achieving total equality, because this point is governed by sharia."

The withdrawal of the reservations to CEDAW by Morocco
The royal letter to the Moroccan Consultative Council of human rights (CCDH) on December 10th, 2008 on the occasion of the 60th anniversary of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, announced the withdrawal of the reservations expressed to CEDAW at its ratification by Morocco in 1993.
On this occasion, the ADFM welcomes the Royal statement that carries a political and universal message worthy of the commemorated event and would like to call to mind the practice of Morocco in relation to CEDAW on the eve of the 30th anniversary of its enactment:
- Morocco has waited 14 years before ratifying the Convention in 1993, on the fringes of the Vienna international conference.
- In addition to the delay in ratification, the extent and nature of reservations on the most important articles of CEDAW (Articles 2-9-15-16) emptied the ratification of its purpose and its essence.
- Morocco had then waited nearly 8 years before publishing the text of the Convention in the Official Bulletin (2001) which is an essential condition for its entry into force and its admissibility in the national legal standard.
- Then waited another 4 years before starting thinking about the lifting of reservations (2005), on the eve of the preparations for its candidacy to the Human Rights Council in Geneva.
- Thereafter, Morocco has declared its intention to lift some partial reservations and replace others by some explanatory statements and also to join the Additional Protocol of CEDAW.
- Finally, during the current year, Morocco has reaffirmed its intention to lift its reservations to the CEDAW and to join the additional protocol, in two UN international review sessions: the Moroccan report on the implementation of the Convention to the CEDAW Committee (January 2008) and during the process of the universal periodic review (UPR, April 2008).
However, to date, the Secretary General of the United Nations has not yet received any official document to that effect.
In the days ahead, the government will certainly look into the consideration of modalities for the lifting of reservations after the long journey that the women's movement has supported for nearly two decades (conferences, inquiries, open letters, sit - in, setting up the "Equality without reservation" campaign and so on….)
We hope that the Royal letter will urge the Government to put a happy ending to its tumultuous and ambiguous relationship with the reservations and to inform the United Nations SG of the decision of Morocco to withdraw all reservations on CEDAW - without exception – and to ratify its Additional Protocol.

iPhone Application: Founding Fathers Quotes
OK, so this has nothing to do with Japanese, but here is our newest iPhone app! Just released today (July 30th, 2009)

Learn Thoughtful & Witty Quotes from the Founding Fathers
If you are a user and have any problems or questions about the application, please email us or call our Toll Free number at 1-866-837-3607.
-=iPhone or iPod Touch=-
The Founding Fathers of the United States are remembered for many things, not the least of these are their writings and speeches. Many quotes seen commonly are left nameless or are even misattributed. We have painstakingly researched not only the author of each quote but the date and related background information. Currently, the app has over 300 quotes; we have an update almost ready adding another 50 and making minor corrections.
For more interesting Founding Fathers Quotations, please see Mark's Quotes.
Read and study quotes by:
- Benjamin Franklin
- George Washington
- John Adams (and the Founding Mother Abigail!)
- Thomas Jefferson
- Alexander Hamilton
- James Madison
- John Jay
- Patrick Henry
- Thomas Paine
- Samuel Adams
- And many more!
Why is this app different from other quote apps?
Most quote apps out there are simply flashcard apps with little or no information or interactivity. This is fine for reading, but for those with a genuine interest in the founding era of the Republic, our app contains context and date information. One of the reasons we created this app was because so many wonderful quotes found on the internet and other apps are misattributed or–perhaps worse–left unnamed or undated.
We have researched each of the quotes found in the app and have done our best to make sure the quote and the information is accurate. (of course PLEASE let us know if you spot any errors!)
Also ours isn't simply a list of quotes in a flashcard format. We have included bios of the major players, a search function to quickly find any keyword, an interactive quiz, a way to email a quote to a friend, and a favorites feature.
We sincerely want to make this a useful app for lovers of American history–if you have ANY suggestions or corrections, please email us or give us a call.
* Over 300 quotes (more to be added in updates of course!)
* Biographies given for most of the authors (linked from each quote by that person)

* Email quotes to friends easily

* Beautiful graphics and artwork

Colours, Community and Chemistry and a website in need of updating.
For the exhibition which drew on the book's themes, I made sound recordings of craftivists, feminists, academics and working class Northerners, we all took photos (including of the exhibition's Comments book) and started a simple blog or wrote for each others' blogs.
My new skills, or sped-up skills, came in handy when relaunching a website that included multimedia about the exhibition rather than having too tight a focus on the book. I found Wordpress much easier than organising a website from scratch, and free applications like Audacity were easy to pick up for editing people's voices.
sound files on the web pages about the exhibition, offering different ways in to the original story, as well as different stories.
2015 was different again: This year I launched a presence on LinkedIn and Twitter (@papercroissant). What were the results? Well, it depends on your measures. I quickly connected with people on LinkedIn by roving around, and the numbers would be bigger if I checked in more often and clicked without thinking.
Five months ago I sneaked into (or is that onto?) the Twittersphere by choosing a couple of images for my profile page: the background of a startling blue beetle on a raspberry leaf that startled me one morning, and a portrait by English painter Geoffrey, made in Venice.
My first tweet took just under an hour to construct, the second just under under an hour, etc. I'm still not speedy because I try and find a new angle and related image. When people in the same space (physical or virtual) are commenting on the same event, I've found the connections more satisfying than I imagined. And it's a good place to celebrate other authors' achievements.
With so much technological choice it's nice to join with people you're acquainted with from the physical world, as I found from my research seven years ago. But that isn't always necessary, and diving in a bit deeper has brought new discoveries that are not just about modes of communication; they're helping me to reflect on creativity itself.

Named as Greg Wass' replacement, Murray meets weekly with Chicago CIO Brett Goldstein, and the two agencies have pledged to keep each other in mind for all technology investments going forward.
Since September, Cook County, Ill.'s new CIO, Lydia Murray, has taken the tech reins in the county, after former CIO Greg Wass left for a position as a senior adviser at the state governor's office.
Under the direction of Cook County Board President Toni Preckwinkle, Murray has been in charge of financial reporting, revenue, email systems and the county's website, and has spent much of her time since being appointed working on several large projects and collaborative efforts with Chicago.
"Historically," Murray said, "the city of Chicago and Cook County have not collaborated on much of anything. And it's ironic that both city hall and the county administrative offices actually share a building." Murray said that relationship has changed in recent years, particularly since Mayor Rahm Emanuel took office last year.
Murray said her own past experience also helped foster an atmosphere of collaboration. Murray worked for the city of Chicago as deputy chief of staff and chaired the Information Technology Governing Board, which oversaw the approval of about $30 million in annual capital requests. She also served as chief of staff at the Chicago Transit Authority where she oversaw a nearly $2 billion budget. Murray also served the Civic Consulting Alliance (CCA) as project manager of city-county collaboration efforts that saved $34 million annually.
Before Dec. 25, Murray said, the county plans to connect Cook County Hospital with a high-speed fiber connection thanks to a joint project with the city and the Chicago Transit Authority. In 2013, the county's main court and jail facilities will also receive fiber connections.
Murray said she meets weekly with Chicago CIO Brett Goldstein, and the two agencies have pledged to keep each other in mind for all technology investments. The county and city have a shared strategy of using the best qualities of each government to identify how the two can work together to save money, she said.
Increased collaboration in Cook County comes at a time when the role of the CIO is changing everywhere. Echoing comments recently made by Palo Alto, Calif., CIO Jonathan Reichental, Murray pointed out that the CIO's new role is to enable smart technology investments. "I have definitely seen over the past decade ... where CIOs have moved more to getting vendors to provide things that are commodities," she said.
The county now has several joint-procurements with the city in various stages of development, she said. Cook County, which has never had GPS tracking before, will piggyback on an upgrade now being undertaken by Chicago and receive a discount based on economy of scale. In other cases, Murray said, the county will be the project hub, such as in the case of future GIS upgrades. Part of the CIO's future role will be to identify what a county or what a city is good at and make upgrades playing to those strengths, she said.
*This story was updated on 12/19 to include Toni Preckwinkle's name.

Michael Kirban: BevNET's Person of the Year
Mike Kirban, BevNET's 2011 Person of the Year came from a category that has swept most of the top awards in recent years, Coconut Water, and from a company whose rapid growth has made it the largest of the three main companies that pioneered that product.
In 2011 Kirban thought big, ramped up the company's marketing approach to a national program while transitioning distribution in several major markets from independents to the Dr Pepper Snapple system. He also managed to play it fairly safe: while the company obviously spent money on marketing initiatives and distribution buyouts, it did so with an eye toward keeping the brand moving steadily toward becoming a national brand.
With a low key, no-drama approach, Kirban has changed the type of business he has run from one that chases accounts up and down the street to one that chases high-profile new hires and national billboard contracts. That development of a long range outlook was on display during BevNET Live, where Kirban followed the acceptance of his award with an interview with BevNET founder John Craven, which is posted below.
"2011 was total insanity," Kirban said. "It was a great year. We saw over 100 percent growth and for the seventh consecutive year – it was amazing, coming from a pretty substantial base which was in 2010."
Certainly, 2011 was not all roses for Vita Coco – the company's pickup of Yankee slugger Alex Rodriguez as a Manhattan-based spokesman brought with it a slight PR blowback, as A-Rod had previously invested in rival Zico. Rather than get upset, however, Kirban simply moved forward with the understanding that the slugger is much more of a known quantity than any insider-y intrigue. Indeed, what is more impressive is the way Kirban turned supply problems that beset the company in 2010 into a steady supply of product in 2011, turning what could have been a major disruption into a hiccup.
"We had some pretty big highs and some interesting lows throughout the year," Kirban said. "We started the year with some inventory issues early on left over from 2010, and as supply started to really ramp up we focused on our core markets and launched an ad campaign. We decided to go big. We decided to go big in our core markets to really separate from what was becoming a crowded category."
Watch the full interview in the following video to hear Kirban discuss more on Vita Coco's big year, and get his take on the category with regard to supply chain issues, standardized labeling for coconut water brands, and what he called the "future bastardization of pure coconut water."

In the course of the Warren Commission's investigation into JFK's assassination, they took testimony from everyone - even Lady Bird Johnson. I find this a fascinating "other" look at the JFK assassination.
Mrs. Johnson recorded that at first she thought the sounds she heard were firecrackers, not shots: "There had been such a gala air that I thought it must be firecrackers or some sort of celebration." The reaction of the Secret Service alerted her to the fact that something was really wrong. She went on to say: "I cast one last look over my shoulder and saw [in the president's car] a bundle of pink, just like a drift of blossoms, lying on the back seat. I think it was Mrs. Kennedy lying over the president's body ... ."

Maimeri Artisti Oil Color - Raw Bergamo, 60 ml tube
Save For Later
- My Wishlist(s)
- My Blick U List(s)
Product Details
- Color:
- Raw Bergamo
- Mfg #:
- Format:
- Tube
- Size:
- 60 ml
Pigment Information
This color contains the following pigments:
PY43-Brown Ochre
PBr7-Burnt Sienna
PBk9-Ivory Black
Pigment Name
PY43-Brown Ochre
Pigment Type
Chemical Name
iron(III)-oxide, partly hydrated
Chemical Formula
Fe2O3(• H2O)
Brown Ochre provides artists with earthtones from cream to brown and is a dull, dark variety of Yellow Ochre. Its transparency varies widely from opaque shades to more transparent ones, which are valued for their use as glazes. It has good hiding power, produces a quick drying paint, and can be safely mixed with other pigments. The highest quality Brown Ochre comes from Cyprus, where it is yellow in its raw form and is roasted to get the deeper brown-red varieties that result when water is removed. (See Yellow Ochre, PY42/43.)
Brown Ochre has excellent permanence.
Brown Ochre is non-toxic.
Ochre comes from the Greek word ochros, meaning pale yellow. It has been used since prehistoric times, and evidence of its use has been found in some of the earliest known cave paintings in Lascaux, France. It has also been called Goethite, after the German philosopher and mineralogist Johann Wolfgang von Goethe (1749-1832).
Pigment Name
PBr7-Burnt Sienna
Pigment Type
Chemical Name
iron oxides
Chemical Formula
Burnt Sienna is a warm, mid-brown color formed by burning the yellow-brown limonite clay called Raw Sienna. It ranges from semi-opaque to semi-transparent due to the combination of its opaque, red-brown mass tone and its transparent, orangey undertone. It is an excellent mixing complement for blues and greens and creates salmon or peach colored tints when mixed with white. It can be useful for subduing bright colors and does not get chalky in dark mixtures.
Burnt Sienna has good permanence and is considered one of the most versatile of the permanent pigments.
Burnt Sienna has no significant hazards.
Burnt Sienna has been used as a pigment since prehistoric times, but its current name came about during the Renaissance. It comes from the city of Siena, in Italy, and is short for terra di Siena, meaning earth of Siena. Sienna was famous for the mining and production of earth pigments from the Renaissance until World War II. Due to the depletion of clay deposits in Tuscany, Italian siennas now come from other areas, including Sicily and Sardinia.
Pigment Name
PBk9-Ivory Black
Pigment Type
charred animal bone
Chemical Name
carbon + calcium phosphate
Chemical Formula
C + Ca3(PO4)2 or C × CaPO4
Ivory Black is a cool, semi-transparent blue-black with a slight brownish undertone and average tinting strength. It mixes well with any color, and creates a range of dull greens when mixed with yellow. It has good properties for use in oil, can be slow to dry in oil form, and should never be used in underpainting or frescoing. Ivory Black is denser than Lamp Black.
Ivory Black is very lightfast and has good permanence, though it is considered the least permanent of the major black pigments.
Ivory Black has no significant hazards.
Ivory Black is a carbon based black first named as Elephantium, and described in the 4th century BCE as produced by heating ivory scraps in clay pots to reduce the ivory or bone to charcoal. The deviation in names is because the more expensive varieties of this pigment were made by burning ivory, and the less expensive ones by burning animal bone. In the 19th century, the name Ivory Black was finally permitted to be applied to Carbon Black pigments made from bone. True Ivory Black is rare in modern times due to the protection of ivory, and the synthetic variety produced today was discovered in 1929. Bone Black is produced as an industrial pigment.

text: Online casino industry could look an easy industry to live with from outside, but it requires to have great amount of skills to win something out of here. There are countless players who sign up every day with one of their favorite online casinos with just one hope that they would win a life changing amount someday, but luck is not so dear to every casino player; hence only limited number of casino players could make their fortunes playing a casino game, otherwise most of the players ended their casino journey all of a sudden, coz either they sustained an intolerable loss or they became out of margin. There is another side of the story which says it is not about casinos but it is all about players who deliberately do mistakes on their own and later blame casinos for their losses. Perhaps, there are countless online journals that guide casino players about various tips and tricks to be followed whenever putting real money onto a casino game, yet some players play recklessly and denunciate playing conditions available to them.

Jennifer Garner isn't happy about her cover spot on this week's People magazine.
This week's issue features a smiling Garner with the words "Life After Heartbreak" for an article detailing her split from husband Ben Affleck.
U.S. & World
Stories that affect your life across the U.S. and around the world.
The 45-year-old actress writes on Facebook that she didn't pose for the cover or "participate in or authorize" the article. While she says the cover shot isn't "a tragedy," she says it does affect her and her family, so she "wanted to set the record straight."
Garner is also shooting down tabloid reports that she's pregnant with twins, writing, "I have three wonderful kids and my family is complete."
A People spokesperson says in a statement that its story on Garner "is fair and truthful," adding that "it does not include rumors and does not say she's pregnant."

2 A pair of burly Chicago giants, the Chicago Mercantile Exchange and the Chicago Board of Trade (pictured above), got together in an $11.8 billion deal to create the world's largest futures trading firm. The pact brought together old-time pit traders, hustling and muscling their way to profits, in a cutthroat new world where electrons and algorithms are more important than hoarse voices or flashy trading jackets. The agreement to create the CME Group shunted aside a rival bid by the upstart Intercontinental Exchange.
3 A boom in ethanol production sent corn prices to the heights, giving a boost to such Illinois behemoths as Archer Daniels Midland Co. and Deere & Co. Farmers, too, enjoyed a bounty. But skeptics said any huge increase in ethanol production will send food prices to levels unacceptable to consumers.
4 Chicago's bid to host the 2016 Olympics took a big step forward as the City of Broad Shoulders won rights to become the U.S. bidder. The International Olympic Committee will name the winner in 2009. Headlines around the world proclaimed Chicago one of the early front-runners in a competition with Rio de Janeiro; Tokyo; Madrid; Prague, Czech Republic; Doha, Qatar; and Baku, Azerbaijan.
5 Media tycoon Conrad Black was sentenced to 6 1/2 years in federal prison, a punishment that falls heavily on the newspaper company he once headed, now known as Sun-Times Media Group. The scandal-scarred enterprise is seeking to overcome his crippling legacy at a time when media companies are struggling.
6 Troubled cell phone-maker Motorola Inc. bade farewell to Chief Executive Edward Zander as he handed off responsibility for fixing the struggling Schaumburg-based giant to his second-in-command, Greg Brown. Zander's retirement at age 60 came at the end of one of the most tumultuous periods in the firm's history. After it rode its revolutionary Razr's success to great heights, global competitors moved in. The result: a collapsing stock price and market share as Motorola keeps searching for new handset winners.
7 Despite some delays, Boeing Co. moved ahead toward the launch of its new 787 Dreamliner, a fuel-sipping aircraft based on new technology that has attracted 790 orders. Chicago-based Boeing said the revolutionary plane's electrical and computer systems are expected to be operational by the end of January, and the plane is expected to take to the skies by the end of March. The snags that have hit the Dreamliner, which is being produced with numerous global partners, are far fewer than those that have afflicted European rival Airbus SAS.
8 In what was described as history's largest buyout of a real estate company, Equity Office Properties Trust was sold for $39 billion to Blackstone Group. Equity Office, controlled by Sam Zell, was the nation's largest office landlord, with 100 million square feet of space. Blackstone moved rapidly to sell off assets. For Zell, 66, it was a company he spent 30 years building.
9 The changing landscape of Loop retailing saw an end to one of State Street's most glittering names, Carson Pirie Scott & Co. As it was shuttered, a huge new development took shape on a tract known as Block 37, across from Macy's, which still is battling to overcome the vanquished name of Marshall Field & Co. The Carsons store at State and Madison Streets, once hailed as the world's busiest corner, is being remade into smaller retail outlets and offices. The city is to provide nearly $10 million to preserve the Louis Sullivan-designed ironwork on the facade of the landmark at 1 S. State St.
10 It was a very good year for McDonald's Corp., which continued to pour on the sales growth and moved to begin pouring a wider variety of beverages. The Oak Brook-based hamburger behemoth has reported 55 consecutive months of worldwide revenue growth through November. Now it is making a direct assault on entrenched rival Starbucks by planning to move full-scale into the specialty coffee market in the U.S.

The GT Speedreader is a ground breaking new version of the classic Ted Lesley concept...specifically designed by a working pro for how performers and spectators REALLY look at cards. The SpeedReader system HIDES THE MARKS when you spread the deck and makes your readings truly FAST AND EFFICIENT.
The Big GT SpeedReader DIFFERENCE
Standard Marked Decks are marked in the upper LEFT corner (and lower right). The GT SpeedReader is marked in the exact OPPOSITE POSITION...at the upper RIGHT corner (and lower left). So as you the deck the exposed upper left section on the cards have no mark (where a sharp spectator might see it)...while the performer can easily read the mark at the lower left corner of the cards...where it's away from the spectator's view.

Nags Head Cedar Shakes, Slate Roofing And Imitation slate
Aquashield Roofing Custom Tile Roofing Nags Head, NC
Synthetic Slate Roofing Repairs And New Cedar Shake Shingles Roof Replacement
Cedar shake roofing shingles have been around for over one hundred years pretty much just like slate roofing. Wooden cedar shakes add a very nice natural look to a home in Nags Head, NC.
Installing cedar shake tile or also wooden shakes is a very slow process! Also something else a bit funny, they are not waterproof! The underlayment keeps the roof from leaking and the cedar shake shingles reflect the sun and protect the underlayment. They work for each other. Wood Cedar Shingles absorb water and swell up that's why they must be spaced properly went installed.
Cedar shake roofing shingles in Nags Head, NC, must be installed on plywood because of the codes. The city will not let you build with slat boards on the roof deck. Installing cedar shake roofing tiles on slats allow the shingles to breath! Installing them on Plywood makes not be able to breathe properly and causes mold growth. In the Nags Head, NC area cedar shake roofing shingles will last eighteen to twenty years at the max no matter what ventilation system you install.
For the cost of Cedar shakes combined with the fact that Cedar shake roofing shingles are difficult to repair, I think I would go with a much better quality roofing material.

During the late 19th and early 20th Century, the production of wooden roofing shingles (Cedar Shakes) was an extremely dangerous process in which a worker to hand-fed pieces of raw wood onto an automated saw. This was a very dangerous profession that paid the bills. This man was considered a brave soul, a daredevil; maybe they even called him crazy! They called him a shingle weaver!
This is a man' job that was right up there with roofing danger wise. I saw pics of the machine, it was pretty dangerous looking.
There was even an International Shingle Weavers of America.
There was even a shingle weaver strike/war that turned into a famous gun battle named:
The Everett massacre
Who knew? True Roofing Fact!
Real Vermont Slate Roofing tiles in Nags Head, NC
Real slate is mainly ordered from a rock quarry somewhere by a roofing supply wholesaler. Slate is another very old roofing system that has been installed on roofer for well over a hundred years. Slate roofing tiles were flawless in their nature and they would last forever if they had the type of fasteners that we have in this day and age. After about 80-100 years the fasteners rust and corrode due to age. All they had was just common steel nails to fasten the slate roofing tiles down with. After a slate roof turns one hundred, slate tiles are dropping and falling left and right.
Nowadays there are Slate Hook nails made from stainless steel. The nails will last forever with hooks securely holding the slate shingles in place. There are many slate roofs in Nags Head, North Carolina. If you need a slate roofing repair or if you want to remove your slate roof and replace it with a more modern roofing material then give us a shout at Aquashield Roofing.

For his work in The Fifth Witness, New York Times bestselling author Michael Connelly will receive the 2012 Harper Lee Prize for Legal Fiction. The Prize, co-sponsored by The University of Alabama School of Law and the ABA Journal, celebrates the role of lawyers in society and the ideals represented by Atticus Finch.
The Fifth Witness was chosen by a distinguished selection committee, including New York Times bestselling novelist Linda Fairstein, former U.S. Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice, New York Times bestselling novelist Lisa Scottoline, NPR Legal Affairs Correspondent Nina Totenberg and FOX News Political Analyst Juan Williams.
"When I was 13 and spending hot summer days in the air conditioning afforded by the Fort Lauderdale public library, a librarian made me read To Kill a Mockingbird," says Connelly. "I discovered a story about a lawyer who was forthright and willing to do the right thing, even at great risk and cost to himself and those he loved. That is the definition of hero I have endeavored to capture in my own work. This honor tells me I'm on the right track."
Connelly will receive the award during a special ceremony September 20, at 2 p.m., at the National Press Club in Washington, D.C. Following the award presentation, Ron Charles, fiction editor of The Washington Post, will lead a discussion of The Fifth Witness, in relationship to Lee's To Kill a Mockingbird, including guest panelists Linda Fairstein, Lisa Scottoline, Nina Totenberg and Juan Williams.

In 2002, Clint Eastwood directed and starred in the movie adaptation of Connelly's 1998 novel, Blood Work. In March 2011, the movie adaptation of his #1 bestselling novel, The Lincoln Lawyer, hit theaters worldwide, starring Matthew McConaughey as Mickey Haller.

SAN FRANCISCO (Reuters) - The Android smartphone operating system is a very important asset for Google Inc, but it is not critical, the company's chief executive officer said in courtroom testimony.
Google CEO Larry Page took the stand for a second day on Wednesday in a high-stakes legal dispute with Oracle Corp over smartphone technology.
Oracle sued Google in August 2010, saying Google's Android mobile operating system infringes on its intellectual property rights to the Java programming language. Google says it does not violate Oracle's patents and that Oracle cannot copyright certain parts of Java, an "open-source," or publicly available, software language.
Under questioning from Oracle's lawyer, Page said Android was very important, but disputed the notion that it was critical. He then said that he would not be surprised if Google's board was told that Android is critical to the company.
The Google co-founder, dressed in a gray suit and wearing a tie, said that the Internet search giant moved to create its own smartphone software seven years ago because the technology at the time made it difficult for consumers to use its online services on mobile phones.
"We'd been really frustrated in getting our technology out to people," Page said.
He said that Google would have preferred to have entered into a business partnership with Sun Microsystems, which developed Java and which Oracle acquired in 2010.
Such a partnership would have saved Google time in its efforts to bring its software to market, Page said, but the companies could not come to terms on an agreement. Instead, Google opted to use what he referred to as the "free part" of Java.
Asked if he could cite an example of a company besides Google that uses Java's application programming interface technologies but had not taken a license from Sun or Oracle, Page said he "was not an expert" on the matter.
The trial before U.S. District Judge William Alsup is expected to last at least eight weeks, and will include appearances by high-profile tech executives. Oracle Chief Executive Larry Ellison took the witness stand on Tuesday.
Ellison, 67, is a Silicon Valley veteran, while Page, 39, cuts a younger and more unpolished figure.
Early in the case, estimates of potential damages against Google ran as high as $6.1 billion. But the company has narrowed Oracle's claims to only two patents from seven originally, reducing the possible award. Oracle is seeking roughly $1 billion in copyright damages.
Google's Android software, which the company lets handset makers use for free, has become the world's No. 1 smartphone operating system, ahead of the iOS software used on Apple Inc's popular iPhone. Google makes money when consumers access its ad-supported online services, such as Web search and email, on Android phones.
Page also said he was not aware of Google's policies on the copying of the intellectual property of other companies. However, he said Google did nothing wrong.
"We were very careful about what information we used and what we did not use," Page said.
In his testimony on Tuesday, Oracle CEO Ellison said his company had explored building its own smartphone before deciding against the idea.
Shares of Google were down 0.3 percent at $607.87 in afternoon trading, while Oracle fell 0.4 percent to $29.16.
The case in U.S. District Court, Northern District of California, is Oracle America, Inc v. Google Inc, 10-3561.

Phones are wireless. Laptop computers are wireless. Why can't an entire neighborhood be wireless? No power lines, no telephone lines, no sewer lines?
While not everyone wants to embrace the challenges that come with living independent of any utility connections, a number of communities across the globe are experimenting with living off the grid as part of being a sustainable, self-sufficient village.
An article in USA Today stated that according to Richard Perez, publisher of Home Power magazine, about 180,000 American households were living off the grid.
British journalist and documentary filmmaker Nick Rosen interviewed some of them for his book, "Off the Grid: Inside the Movement for More Space, Less Government, and True Independence in Modern America." People living off-grid range from environmentalists looking to lessen their impact on the planet to survivalists striving for self-sufficiency is advance of the collapse of civilization.
Some off-the-grid communities are little more than subdivisions beyond the reach of any power company, where homeowners fend for themselves. Some off-the-grid communities take the intentional community approach, a gathering of like-minded residents living in a cooperative manner (and if you think that sounds like a commune, well, you'd be right).
Here's a look at some of them:
Three Rivers Recreation Area
More than 500 homes are scattered across 4,000 acres about an hour drive from Bend, Ore. None of them is connected to the power grid. The homes in this subdivision — a mix of multimillion dollar homes and shacks — use solar panels, wind turbines and back-up generators to provide electricity. Some have wells, others have water hauled in by a service. The development of mostly vacation homes — there are fewer than 100 permanent residents — started in the 1960s.
Greater World Community
This 634-acres development near Taos, N.M., claims to be the world's first Earthship subdivision — an Earthship being a passive solar house made of natural materials such as adobe and recycled tires, cans and other materials. The homes here are on large lots of two acres or more. A two-bedroom, one-bath Earthship with solar hot water system and six solar photovoltaic panels is on the market for $295,000. Residents of the Greater World have access to 347 acres of community land, open green space with hiking, biking and parks.
Breitenbush is an intentional community set on 154 acres near Detroit, Oregon, that operates the Breitenbush Hot Springs Retreat and Conference Center. About 60 people live here permanently. An onsite hydropower plant supplies electricity for the complex of 100 buildings. Geothermal wells provide heat.
The 35 buildings in this community of about 60 people living and working in Black Mountain, N.C., are powered by solar panels and hydropower generated by a micro-hydro system in Rosy Branch Creek. Residents catch water off of roofs for use in irrigation. The community is 320 acres of homes and farms with plans to become a village of at least 150 people on 56 home sites.
Emerald Earth
This intentional community on 189 acres Mendocino County near Boonville, Calif., was founded in 1989. The dozen or so people living here share a common house with a main kitchen, eating and meeting areas and shower. There is also a bathhouse/greenhouse with a sauna, showers and garden greenhouse. There are four small cabins heated by passive solar and wood stoves. Solar panels and a gas generator provide electricity. Use of composting outhouses means there is no need for a septic system.

Release Date: 01/14/2014
Contact Information: Nahal Mogharabi, email@example.com, 213-244-1815
LOS ANGELES--The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency announced that Air Louvers will pay $43,000 for violations of the Clean Water Act. The Commerce, Calif. manufacturing company was found to be improperly discharging wastewater from its metals finishing operations into the Los Angeles County Sanitation District (LACSD) sewer system. As part of this settlement, Air Louvers will spend an additional $23,350 on equipment upgrades at its facility.
"Toxic wastewater flowing into the Los Angeles sewer system can reach the Pacific Ocean," said Jared Blumenfeld, EPA's Regional Administrator for the Pacific Southwest. "To protect the environment, the federal Clean Water Act requires companies to treat their wastewater before they discharge it."
Air Louvers owns and operates a facility that manufactures louvers, access panels, metal cabinets and door frames. As part of its production processes, the facility generates and discharges wastewater to the LACSD sewer system.
EPA's investigations began in August 2010 and discovered that the facility had discharged wastewater above federal limits for copper and zinc from May 2006 to January 2011—a violation of its federal pretreatment discharge requirements. EPA's standards are designed to protect municipal sewer systems and wastewater treatment plants from adverse effects of toxic discharges, including the potential pass through of toxics to the Pacific Ocean.
In addition to the $43,000 penalty, as part of this settlement, Air Louvers will spend an additional $25,350 to install additional equipment including water recycling and evaporation equipment that will eliminate all wastewater discharges from its manufacturing plant.
The proposed consent agreement is subject to a 30-day comment period and final agency approval. The 30-day public comment period ends on February 12, 2014.

Back in 2007, we posted what we thought to be a request to order an armored Maybach 62 for the President of Azerbaijan. Turns out our cotomer sevis really is that bad. Mr Mamedov sent us what we assume to be an angry letter letting us know that we are silly for transferring such information to the internet, and that something is repeatedly strange. He made sure to let us know that the car was for him and we shouldn't rely on the notoriously incorrect Google for our sleuthing. On behalf of our cotomer sevis department, we apologize and hope that in the future, we can help to not arrange for the purchase of armored Maybah 62's more accurately in the future. Strongly, and repeatedly worded email after the jump.
Dear Sirs! Before that something to write, it is necessary to think well. Who told you, or wrote, that the President of Azerbaijan seeking for the armored Maybach???? Why for such silly information transferring on the Internet. I am, Rustam Mammadov businessman seeking that car, not are you found and seeking on Google quick search. It is not your deal, what you think, we can take permission from you after ordering car????? The silly information should not be transferred or you have nothing to be engaged. Are you stupied, Order strange or not strange!!!! If ordering Maybach, then in your mind it is strange and from strange peoples, all world buying that car, what is strange ????? I think you are very strange person and thinking very strange!!!! Not to be engaged nonsense, it is not necessary Regards

McAfee trademarks and brands are valuable corporate assets and are an important part of its intellectual property portfolio. McAfee trademarks and logos are to be used properly and only within the terms of a valid written license with McAfee.
Trademark Symbols and Acknowledgments
Third-Party Use of McAfee Code Names
Contact Information
McAfee Trademarks and Approved Nouns
Usage guidelines for customers, licensees, and other third parties
McAfee's philosophy on trademarks and brands
McAfee's trademarks and brands are McAfee intellectual property and are important and valuable assets of the corporation. Trademarks must be used properly. Follow these Guidelines for using McAfee's trademarks and brands properly in all communications, documents, and electronic messages.
Who do these guidelines apply to?
These Guidelines apply to McAfee employees, customers, licensees, consultants, outside vendors, and other third parties.
If you are a LICENSEE of a McAfee trademark or logo under a marketing program agreement or other business alliance agreement, the license agreement may have special permissions or usage guidelines in addition to or that supersede the guidelines set forth below.
If you are a supplier of products or services to McAfee, you may only display or use the McAfee trademarks in accordance with your agreement with McAfee. You may not use a McAfee trademark in a manner that implies endorsement or approval of your products or services by McAfee without specific written permission from McAfee.
Any and all other displays of a McAfee trademark or logo must follow the guidelines below.
Using McAfee's trademarks and logos
You are permitted to refer to McAfee products and services by their associated trademark or service name, as long as such references:
- are truthful, fair, and not misleading;
- do NOT misrepresent, mislead, suggest, or otherwise confuse users into believing McAfee is the source of goods or services not actually made or provided by McAfee or its subsidiaries; and
- comply with these policy Guidelines, which McAfee may modify from time to time at its sole discretion.
Your use or display of a McAfee trademark must always: (a) use the McAfee trademark as an adjective, including an appropriate noun after the trademark; and (b) include appropriate acknowledgement of the McAfee ownership of the trademark.
You may NOT, and are specifically prohibited from:
- Including a McAfee trademark or logo into the name(s) of your products, services, domain names, trademarks, logos, or company.
- Adopting trademarks or logos for your products, services, domain names, trademarks, logos, or company names that are confusingly similar to a McAfee trademark or logo.
- Making any use of any McAfee name, mark, or logo in connection with your goods or services that improperly suggests that McAfee is the source of or otherwise approves of or is connected with your goods or services, when no such express source, approval, or connection exists.
- Making unlicensed use of any McAfee logo (contact your McAfee marketing or sales representative for business programs that may include licensed use of certain McAfee trademarks).
Trademark golden rules
- ALWAYS use a trademark as an adjective, accompanied by an APPROPRIATE noun. Do not use a trademark as a noun. Do not pluralize a trademark or make it possessive (which would be using it as a noun). Do not join a trademark to other words, symbols, or numbers, either as one word or with a hyphen. And do not abbreviate a trademark.
- ALWAYS use the proper spelling and the proper trademark symbol. For the trademark symbol, the superscript or subscript mode is preferred, but if it is not available, use parentheses: (TM), (SM.) or (R).
- ALWAYS use trademarks and brand names in the ways they were intended to be used. Do not use them for goods or services for which they were not originally intended. Do not alter them in any way. Do not make puns out of them or portray them in a negative light.
Proper trademark usage rules include:
- As with all other trademarks, the trademark should be used as an adjective and not as a noun. This means that an appropriate and approved noun must accompany the trademark.
- Use the appropriate trademark symbols with each trademark.
- Use the trademark symbol in the first appearance in the body of text, and in the most prominent instance (e.g., a paragraph headline) when permitted by space and an applicable style guide.
- Never hyphenate or abbreviate the trademark.
- Never incorporate the trademark or any part of the trademark into a third party's company name, product brand name, or model number.
McAfee product names not listed on the Names List
Many McAfee product names are not specifically listed on the Names List (McAfee® AntiVirus Plus, McAfee® Internet Security, McAfee® Network Threat Response). For these names:
- They must always be preceded by "McAfee" (e.g., never just "AntiVirus Plus")
- They must always be spelled out at every instance (i.e. do not abbreviate)
- They do not have a specific noun.
Usage Examples
Use McAfee Total Protection™ software to protect against viruses and spyware.
Use McAfee to protect against viruses and spyware.
I scanned my computer using McAfee® AntiVirus Plus software.
I scanned my computer using McAfee.
McAfee® ePolicy Orchestrator® platform is uniquely the best solution available.
McAfee™ ePolicy is the best solution available.
McAfee® Total Protection software for Enterprise is an integrated security solution.

Trademark Symbols and Acknowledgements

Following are guidelines for the use of trademark symbols for McAfee's trademarks:
- Properly designate (with ®, ™ or SM) in the appropriate location of the name as shown on the Names List.
- For graphic images appearing in charts, graphs, graphics, word processing, etc., trademarks should also be designated with the proper symbol.
Trademark Acknowledgements
Following are guidelines for the use of trademark acknowledgments for McAfee's trademarks:
- Properly footnote and acknowledge trademark ownership, preferably identifying McAfee marks as being owned by McAfee LLC. For example: McAfee, the McAfee logo, and SiteAdvisor are trademarks or registered trademarks of McAfee LLC in the United States and other countries.
- The list of McAfee trademarks to provide acknowledgement for are on the McAfee Trademarks and Approved Nouns list.
- Note that some McAfee trademarks licensed by McAfee to you may have specific contractual acknowledgment requirements or other restrictions. Refer to your contract or license for specific requirements.
Third-Party Use of McAfee Code Names
McAfee Code Names
McAfee uses internal code names to identify projects related to specific products or services that are in development and may or may not be publicly released. These code names are only for tracking purposes to aid in identifying a specific project, and are not indicative of that project's feature set, release time table, eventual brand name, or a promise or warranty that the project will be publicly released at all. If and when a code-named project is publicly released, it will receive and be promoted under a commercial brand name and all references to that product or service by the McAfee code name should cease entirely. Use of the correct commercial product names in advertising and marketing materials is essential to accurate and effective marketing communications, and to avoid potential legal claims based on the use of a McAfee code name.
Third-Party Use of McAfee Code Names
Customers, licensees, and other third parties are not authorized by McAfee to use McAfee code names in advertising, promotion, or marketing of any product or service. The use of any McAfee code name in advertising will automatically disqualify the advertisement from qualification for reimbursement under any McAfee cooperative marketing program, and could result in termination from McAfee marketing programs.
Third-Party Reference to McAfee Code Names (at user's sole risk)
Notwithstanding the above, McAfee will not object to a limited pre-release use of McAfee code names by customers and licensees in reference to upcoming McAfee products. Any such use is at the sole risk of the user.
No Liability, Warranty, or Indemnification for use of McAfee Code Names
McAfee does not represent or warrant that any McAfee code name is non-infringing or available for use in commerce, and expressly disclaims any such representations or warranties. Use by customers, licensees, or other third parties of McAfee code names may provoke legal challenges from others claiming rights in such names, and may result in legal liability. McAfee accepts no responsibility or liability arising from or related to such third-party use (in any way) of McAfee code names. McAfee will not, under any circumstances, indemnify, defend, or hold harmless any customer, licensee, or other third party for the use of a McAfee code name. Third-party use of McAfee code names is at the user's sole risk.

Religious communities are never the same once they reach America. In my view, they often become even more remarkable.
As a third-generation American Jew, it is at times even challenging for me to think of Judaism apart from the American experience. In spite of hardships early on for our community, the search for common threads between the disparate Jewish groups that came in droves to America two (and more) generations ago forced us to reexamine and hone our religious beliefs. What actually bound us together?
Answering that question compelled leaders of the American Jewish movements to articulate key Jewish values for the contemporary world -- notably equality, education and the support of Jewish communities worldwide. Yet most compelling for many American Jews was, and remains, the active engagement of social justice issues.
We emerged from disempowered (and worse) circumstances in Europe as a community that lived out its faith through action in America. From the labor movement to the feminist movement to the civil rights movement to the environmental movement, American Jews found themselves disproportionately represented and often in leadership roles. Jewish belief (whether theological, ethical, or both) guided action, and action inspired belief.
As has become quite evident in the past several years, another set of religious groups, bolstered by recent waves of immigrants to America, is also looking to social justice as a possible unifying trope. Launched by Anju Bhargava, Hindu-American visionary and founder of Hindu American Seva Charities, this effort seeks to increase long-term collaboration between Buddhist, Hindu, Jain and Sikh communities through religiously inspired volunteerism, charity and social services.
Together, these groups -- several of which are comprised primarily of immigrants from South and East Asia -- represent what may be described as Dharmic religious communities and a new coalition in the American religious landscape. They are seeking a unique American identity and niche for their adherents. Like other religious communities that have flourished during and after waves of immigration, they appear poised to make essential contributions to American society.
I was blessed to see the formal launch of their historic collaboration this week at a conference hosted by the White House. Entitled "Community Building in the 21st Century with Strengthened Dharmic Faith-Based Institutions," it sought to build strategic collaboration between each religious community and create a common language with which to do so.
As one of a dozen non-Dharmic participants fortunate enough to take part, I was profoundly moved by what I saw. The search for commonality among Dharmic religious practitioners was well underway, and I was witnessing these communities work to determine the values they would express through their institutions in America. It felt like a sacred moment and one of conscious transition for the religious communities involved.
I could not but see resonance between the formation of such partnerships between Sikhs, Buddhists, Hindus and Jains and those that had emerged within the then-disparate Jewish communities during the period of great Jewish immigration to America.
What were to be the shared goals of these communities? What was unique about each one? Could they all even come together under the banner of a religious coalition, or did some of the groups see themselves on a different spectrum altogether? Was it possible for immigrants from South and East Asia to seek common cause in spite of coming from distinct countries?
Most impressive to me was the emphasis on planning for the future. The Hindu, Sikh, Buddhist and Jain leaders present at the White House did not simply want to find common cause in the present but determine systematic ways of articulating their religious values through action in the future. While theological and philosophical differences were identified and made explicit (for example, through the presence of four different mantras and/or prayers with which to open the gathering), the shared focus of social and human issues was unmistakable. The Dharmic religious communities seem poised to singularly effect change in the American religious context and to do so in tandem.
It was an honor to see Hindus, Sikhs, Buddhists, and Jains not only engaging in but building upon their religious precedents for a vital and important role in America's future. Their efforts, particularly to provide much-needed social services to the aged, the unwell, and the needy, are likely to become a model from which all American religious communities can learn.
There is also growing focus among American Dharmic communities about international human rights concerns. This comes in response to growing evidence of possible kidnappings, forced marriages, and high conversion rates among Hindus and Sikhs (and Christians) in Pakistan, as well as Buddhists in Southeast Asia.
If the evidence is corroborated, what is the role of American Dharmic communities in addressing these concerns overseas? Is there some kind of protection they can provide from America for practitioners abroad who might feel at risk?
If so, this suggests a new role for American Dharmic communities not only domestically but also as leaders within their respective traditions internationally.
