chik'n and mushroom wontons
i was poking around at the grocery store and got to looking at the egg roll wraps. unfortunately they contain egg, but right next to them were wonton wrappers which didn't.
this got me thinking of all the tiny possibilities i could create with these: garden rolls, pot stickers, or even just cutting the wrappers into strips and frying them into crisps for a salad or stir fry. but i decided to start off simply with some fake chicken and mushroom filled wontons.
declared tasty even by picky eaters.
1/2 c finely chopped fake meat (i like morning star's meal starters chik'n strips)
1/2 c finely chopped mushrooms
3 cloves minced garlic
1/3 c apple cider vinegar
1 tbsp nutritional yeast
~2 c peanut oil
in a small frying pan bring the vinegar to a simmer on medium heat and mix in the nutritional yeast, fake meat, mushrooms and garlic to cook for about 5 minutes, or just until the mushrooms and fake meat begin to soften. set aside and let cool for at least 10 minutes.
when cool, spoon 1 tbsp of the filling into the center of the wonton wrapper.
pinch together the opposing sides of the wrapper so the edges are flat and corners square. seal with the smallest dab of water on your fingertips.
do the same thing to the other sides so the corners of the wrapper are pointing out.
then push those the pointed corners in the same direction so it looks like a pinwheel. pinch the whole thing to a point in the middle to keep it all together.
now all that's left is to drop these little treats in some peanut oil in a sauce pan over medium heat. about 2 cups worked for me, just high enough to cover the wontons so i don't have to flip them while they're cooking. after 2-3 minutes as they started to brown i tong them onto a plate covered with a paper towel to soak up excess oil.
i served them on a bed of shredded lettuce with a sweet chili dipping sauce. they would also be good with soy sauce, sweet and sour sauce, or just by themselves.
yields 10 wontons

Set to launch at the start of the New Year,
is a new online music store offering digital downloads with a specifically designed website to cater for DJs and dance music in general. It has been 14 months in the making and has involved many people from all different backgrounds with Bad Boy Bill saying
"Beatport represents the first major website to combine the minds of DJs, marketers, promoters and retailers to sell digital downloads the same way you would if you went to the record store. DJs show differently than consumers and we've accounted for both on our site."
Beatport will contain an extensive catalog of music across all genres with features that enhance the online shopping experience including genre exclusive forums, custom play lists based on length of set, genre and pace and top 10 charts from top DJs, clubs and labels.
President of Beatport, Jonas Tempel, comments on why Beatport is so important.
The future of promoting and distributing dance music is being revolutionised by Beatport. Sending out vinyl is a costly and timely thing of the past. Beatport's PromoOne
feature allows a label or DJ to promote new music instantaneously. A track can be released and debuted at the clubs in the time it typically takes to drive to the record store."
It seems the digital music boom is taking on a new voice. If you have an opinion on this matter, place a comment below.

Gravesend road has 20ft hole days before Olympic Torch relay
9:21am Tuesday 17th July 2012 in Traffic & Travel By Jim Palmer
The hole was 20 feet deep - a drop equivalent to the height of a giraffe (giraffe pic: Anna Langova)
CHAOS engulfed Gravesend town centre after a potentially lethal 20-foot hole opened up in the road, just days before the Olympic Torch is due to arrive.
A chasm near the train station in Clive Road was the width of a dustbin lid and a staggering 20 feet deep - a drop equivalent to a two-storey house, or a giraffe.
The collapse is thought to have been caused by a well underneath the road.
Founder of North Kent Disabled Foundation, Danny O'Brien, said he was very worried that someone could have been hurt.
The 65-year-old, who is wheelchair-bound, said: "It could kill you, especially if you are disabled, if it is that deep. There is no doubt about it.
"Blind people especially. You get someone who walks with a stick and they know their way around and they cross where they normally cross and there's a hole.
"You could have a very serious accident and do yourself a serious injury - you could even get killed."
Gravesham Council leader, Councillor John Burden said he had his "fingers crossed" that a similar problem didn't strike the torch relay which will pass just yards away on Friday.
Cllr Burden said the hole was a "genuine concern" and indicative of wider issues of the borough's roads, which are looked after by Kent County Council.
He said: "There is always potential for a hole like this to be dangerous.
"The question is, was the road always being maintained properly in the first place?"
The road - a major route through the middle of town - was closed for two hours from around 2pm on Thursday (July 12), bringing traffic to a standstill, after the hole expanded from the size of a normal pothole.
Cllr Burden praised the work of KCC's highway services for plugging it quickly, but said more needed to be done to keep the roads in good condition.
He said: "It is a genuine concern. We need to see Kent's highway services to do more to protect the roads in the borough, because it is not effective.
"You could drive round many of our roads and see they are not properly maintained. Some of the problems are coming home to roost."
The Olympic Torch is due to pass through Gravesend from 9.51am on Friday (July 20) and will travel along New Road and Darnley Road, which are just yards from where the fissure emerged in Clive Road.
Its route has already changed because the heavy convoy - which includes buses and advertising lorries - was judged to be too much for weak railway bridges along Wellington Street and the possible alternative in Peacock Street, less than half a mile from Thursday's collapse.
Kent County Councillor for Northfleet and Gravesend West, Leslie Christie said: "Obviously I was concerned when it happened. The area gets a lot of these holes.
"It is a worrying thing, how many more are there?"
KCC highways and transportation district manager for Gravesham, Alan Casson, said: "We were alerted to a pothole in Clive Road at around 12pm on Thursday.
"Highways officers visited the site and discovered that the pothole had been caused by an old, uncharted well.
"The road was closed by Kent Police, and by 4pm that day it was repaired and the road re-opened.
"This is a busy road in the heart of Gravesend. We will be closely monitoring the current fix to see whether further work is required, and if so, making sure disruption is kept to an absolute minimum."

COOL GEAR ALERT: Ibanez RG2XXV
Alright, I'm an Ibanez geek. Sure, I own and love other guitars, but Ibanii still outnumber all of them. My RG550s are great workhorses, my RG seven-strings are brilliant instruments, and my Talman TC825 is killer. So forgive me if I gaze longingly at this beauty: the new RG2XXV, part of Ibanez's 25th Anniversary celebrations for the RG as we know and love it today (there were RG models prior to this but they looked very different: the line was redeveloped alongside the development of the Jem and announced in 1987).
The RG2XXV is less expensive than the RG1XXV announced earlier in the year. It features Ibanez INF pickups, an Edge Zero II bridge, basswood body, three-piece maple neck, rosewood fretboard with jumbo frets, coloured dot inlays, a Wizard III neck shape and DR coated strings. It's available in Fluorescent Pink and Fluorescent yellow.
More info here.
Good Day, Suhr.
Suhr guitars are pretty freaking nice. Duh. But they've always been a little too classy for most of the 80′s crowd (Reb Beach excepted). But now… now…
Need more? KABOOM!
COOL GEAR ALERT: DiMarzio neon straps and cables
Are you a neon freak like me? I think it all goes back to when I bought a copy of a magazine called Countdown back in grade school, and they had a freebie pair of neon shoelaces attached to the cover. I loved those damn shoelaces.
Check out these cool neon accessories from DiMarzio. The nylon straps have leather ends and are available in neon pink, neon green, neon orange andneon yellow (you can get the same colours in DiMarzio's 2-inch neon ClipLock series). The length adjusts from 32 to 56-1/2 inches (81 – 144 cm). Don't they look cool with my Ibanez RG550MXXRFR?
DiMarzio's nylon-braided guitar and instrument cable is also available in the same neon colours, as well as gold, chrome, vintage tweed, black/gray, purple, marine green, electric blue, red and black.
You can also get almost any DiMarzio pickup in a variety of neon colours (you can even specify different colours for each bobbin of the pickup). Although I'd probably keep my RG550 all-original for sentimental reasons, look at the photos again and picture this: a Breed set, in yellow/orange/yellow/orange/yellow (with orange tone knob and yellow volume knob). 80s overload!
Check out DiMarzio's straps here and their cables here.

@ Post by prijatelj.v: The crashes / issues you describe are the result of interferences/crack ups in the graph creation process. Before installing Lav, make sure Haali is deinstalled properly, also deactivate the internal filters of your softwareplayer for the formats you want to split/decode with LAV. In the LAV options theres an "Input formats" tab, you can select Raw LPCM-audio as well. To avoid a messed up graph building, set everything to LAV, do not use any further postprocessing filters. You can provide yourself much better/faster performance than with tha Haali setup (its 6 years old, no bugfixes/updates), LAV is constantly improved by its developer Nevcairiel (THX btw :). For guides /troubleshooting I strongly recommend checking out the Doom9 Forum, the Lav- and other software developers post there and are very kind providing profound help and tipps :)
some things work great but... LAV audio decoder crash...see here : http://www.zaslike.com/files/o7c7drzvll137u11l7un.jpg GSpot crash in rendering..see here : http://www.zaslike.com/files/tc3ps4y2j3i4te38v0pu.jpg can not be decoded (or do not see the function) for RAW video and uncompressed RAW audio,I consider very important for the (Subtitle Workshop 2.51) I'm going back to the proven combination : ffdshow + Haali Media Splitter
Actually its faster than Haali for quite a while already. At least from what i recognized when i compared, few versions ago. Besides its better performance it delivers much more stream infos.
This is a major release in my opinion. Although the changelog contains few update information, it actually has numerous small updates included within since the last stable version. This version seems faster than the previous ones. LAV getting better with time. We may have to ditch Haali Media Splitter in coming days. LAV splitter is going to take over ;) Thanks devs for this package!
Please ignore my previous comment, that problem happened because I usually overwrite the old versions of the DirectShow filters, instead of registering the new ones.
On Windows XP, Media Player Classic Homecinema may be unable to use LAV Filters for playing DVDs. Here is the workaround that I've found: open MPC-HC (or MPC-BE), goto "Options", "External Filters", and then add "LAV Video Decoder", add Media Type "MEDIATYPE_DVD_ENCRYPTED_PACK", add Sub Type "MEDIASUBTYPE_MPEG2_VIDEO".
LAV Audio goes out of sync when connected to other ASF splitters, such as the GDCL WMV/WMA Parser. Besides, the MPEG-4 ALS decoder again has the problem that was fixed in revision 0.50.5-xxxxxx (it consumes 100% of the CPU-time on a Pentium-4, and freezes MPC-HC if the internal Audio Switcher is enabled).
Works great with very smooth video on my old pentium pro PC with Nvidia card. I have had problems with the LAV Audio decoder on 6 channel AC-3 audio. Audio volume changes seem exaggerated when audio goes from soft to load. This problem is rare and is not noticeable on most audio tracks so it's not a big problem but I have found that Divx decoder does not have the same problem.
Only if it would have supported Intel Quick Sync for Video Decoding
the best splitter for mpc-hc and htpc's !

Aalborg: Zaza; Bogelund (Nielsen 74'), Jakobsen,
Olfers, Pedersen; Enevoldsen, Augustinussen, Johansson, Due; Curth (Saganowski
Villarreal: Diego
López; Javi Venta, Gonzalo, Godín, Capdevila; Cazorla, Marcos
Senna, Edmilson (Bruno 64'), Pires (Mati Fernández 64'); Llorente
(Guille Franco 46'), Rossi. 4-4-2.
0-1. 41. Rossi. Picked up Pires pass and cut in past
defender to shoot past Zaza.
1-1. 54. Curth. Latched on to Caca back-heel
pass and fired shot past Diego.
1-2. 75. Franco. Controlled Cani lofted
pass on chest and poked shot past Zaza.
2-2. 81. Due. Struck free kick over
wall and in to near top corner from right of area.
Villarreal just need one point from the next two matches to ensure a place in the knockout stage after drawing 2-2 at Aalborg. Since they last played a fortnight ago, local coach Bruce Rioch had been fired and Allan Kuhn had taken over. And his side started well, with Diego López in action early on to keep out Curth and Due. Marcos Senna and Llorente tested Zaza at the other end however, and with four minutes to go to the break Rossi gave Pellegrini's side the lead twice, picking up a pass from Pires and cutting in past two defenders before firing an angled shot past the keeper.
The locals equalised though a few minutes after the interval, Curth lashing a shot past Diego López after Caca had set him up with a clever back-heel. The visiting keeper had to be at his best to save from Bogelund a few minutes later, but with a quarter of an hour to go substitute Guille Franco put Villarreal back in front, controlling Cani's lofted pass on his chest before poking a shot past Zaza. But Aalborg didn't give up, and once again they came back to equalise, Due finding the near top corner of the net with a well struck free kick with ten minutes to go.
The draw between Celtic and Manchester United in the other group game meant that Villarreal stay level with the English side at the top of the group, and a point each when they play each other in the Madrigal stadium in three weeks' time would be enough for both to qualify.

Those look good man, maybe the Coop needs one…
Howdy! I am interested to know how much one of the V-Boards might cost? And how much it might run for shipment to california? Thanks for your time and your great blog postings! Cheers!
Ah, obviously I should have followed instructions and read further along. I found the information I needed, thanks.
What are the overall dimensions of the board? Wondering if it will fit over my closet door.
Thanks Chris, glad you got the info you needed, and Jer, just let me know, I think ALL Climbing Coops need one:)
Maybe I will start as well, looks nice.
I just e-mailed you about ordering one … I hope you still have a V-board left! It looks amazing and will be a gift for someone VERY special!

When your senses are first bombarded with light, sound and colour as you exit a yellow cab into the bustling heartland of Times Square, New York's magic spell already has you in its thrall. Chow down on a hot dog from a street vendor in the middle of Central Park, cheer on the Yankees on homeground, or catch a show on Broadway to get the all American experience in the city that never sleeps.
Take Me Out to the Ballgame
"Batter, batter, batter, swwwwinnng, batter!" It wouldn't be a trip to the US without catching a game of baseball. The season runs from April until September. With a catchcry of 'Heroes Remembered. Legends Born', The New York Yankees have certainly turned out their fair share of sporting heroes since their inception in 1913. The Yankees hail from The Bronx and are a team surrounded by mythical curses, controversy and the rise of legends including Babe Ruth and Joe DiMaggio. The original Yankee Stadium was built in 1923 at the height of Babe Ruth's fame, but was retired in 2008 with the new stadium built just across the park featuring many of the significant monuments of the historic ballpark. These days, the heroes of the field are Alex Rodriguez and top home-run hitter Curtis Granderson. Grab a hot dog, a beer and settle in to watch history in the making. Just be sure to practise your hollers before you go.
Central Park
The hustle and noise of the Big Apple seems to fall away completely when you enter the heartland of Central Park. It's 51 blocks of woods, grass and parkland that makes you feel like you're in upstate New York, rather than the beating heart of its centre. Famous landmarks litter the landscape. The Alice in Wonderland statue near East 75th/76th Streets captures Lewis Carroll's trippy mushroom meeting of Alice, the Mad Hatter, the Cheshire Cat and the White Rabbit in a lifelike bronze replica. Strawberry Fields near West 71st/72nd streets is a monument to the fallen John Lennon, etched with the mosaic remembrance 'Imagine'. The Central Park Zoo is similarly a hidden gem in the middle of Manhattan. There are many ways to amble around Central Park: hire a bike, take a stroll or catch a horse and cab ride. Don't forget to grab a pretzel from a street vendor on your way in, so you can tease the squirrels and experience an all American moment.
Catch a Show on Broadway
A New York holiday is not complete without taking in a show at one of Broadway's 40 professional theatres. Broadway attracts more than 12 million visitors a year, turning over more than $1 billion in revenue. Broadway was born in the late 1800s, when musicals began to infiltrate the theatres. It wasn't until the early 1900s that the boutique theatres began to creep upon Times Square, consolidating around it in the 1920s and 1930s. Since that time countless long-run performances have trod the boards, with the longest running show being Phantom of The Opera with more than 10,000 shows from 1988 to today. Catch Chicago, Cats, Mamma Mia and Wicked starring A List celebrities and the crème de la crème of the world musical theatre stars. Because you haven't seen it, until you've seen it on Broadway!

Encouraging Baby's Best Sleep
Snooze Button
You've probably heard people say that pretty much all newborns do is eat and sleep. While this statement is true, it's also wickedly deceptive. Newborns may sleep 16 to 18 hours a day, but not in large, several-hour blocks. Some babies awaken every 20 minutes, others every three hours. In other words, you can pretty much count on being awake with your baby while the rest of the world blissfully dozes on.
Because it takes time for a baby's brain to establish its circadian rhythm -- an inborn biological clock that creates sleeping and waking patterns -- she can't distinguish day from night and won't be able to sleep in larger blocks of time until 6 weeks or so.
And let's not forget the feeding factor. Newborns are hungry little creatures with tiny stomachs. Breastfed babies need to eat every two-and-a-half hours (breast milk digests very quickly); bottlefeeders about every four hours. Your best bet? Sleep when baby sleeps. If you breastfeed, pump milk so Dad can give baby her 3 a.m. feeding.

Google Fined $25,000 For Stealing People's Private Information
Google intentionally hindered a federal regulator's probe into its Street View cars' accidental grabs of personal information off of Wi-Fi routers, according to the investigating agency.
Google's penalty: A measly $25,000 fine.
The Federal Communications Commission said in a report filed late Friday that Google repeatedly gave the agency the cold shoulder when it was trying to determine whether Google had engaged in any wrongdoing.
Google admitted in late 2010 that it had inadvertently collected unsuspecting people's information.
Prying out more detail proved exceedingly difficult for the FCC.
Google "deliberately impeded and delayed" the investigation by failing to respond to information requests, the agency said.
It added: "Google apparently willfully and repeatedly violated Commission orders to produce certain information and documents that the Commission required for its investigation."

Pilates or Physical Mind method, is a series of non-impact exercises designed by Joseph Pilates to develop strength, flexibility, balance, and inner awareness.
Joseph Pilates (pronounced pie-LAH-tes), the founder of the Pilates method (also simply referred to as "the method") was born in Germany in 1880. As a frail child with rickets, asthma, and rheumatic fever, he was determined to become stronger. He dedicated himself to building both his body and his mind through practices which included yoga, zen, and ancient Roman and Greek exercises. His conditioning regime worked and he became an accomplished gymnast, skier, boxer, and diver.
While interned in England during World War I for being a German citizen, Pilates became a nurse. During this time, he designed a unique system of hooking springs and straps to a hospital bed in order to help his disabled and immobilized patients regain strength and movement. It was through these experiments that he recognized the importance of training the core abdominal and back muscles to stabilize the torso and allow the entire body to move freely. This experimentation provided the foundation for his style of conditioning and the specialized exercise equipment associated with the Pilates method.
Pilates emigrated to the United States in 1926 after the German government invited him to use his conditioning methods to train the army. That same year he opened the first Pilates studio in New York City. Over the years, dancers, actors, and athletes flocked to his studio to heal, condition, and align their bodies.
Joseph Pilates died at age 87 in a fire at his studio. Although his strength enabled him to escape the flames by hanging from the rafters for over an hour, he died from smoke inhalation. He believed that ideal fitness is "the attainment and maintenance of a uniformly developed body with a sound mind fully capable of naturally, easily, and satisfactorily preforming our many and varied daily tasks with spontaneous zest and pleasure."
Pilates is a form of strength and flexibility training that can be done by someone at any level of fitness. The exercises can also be adapted for people who have limited movement or who use wheel chairs. It is an engaging exercise program that people want to do. Pilates promotes a feeling of physical and mental well-being and also develops inner physical awareness. Since this method strengthens and lengthens the muscles without creating bulk, it is particularly beneficial for dancers and actors. Pilates is also helpful in preventing and rehabilitating from injuries, improving posture, and increasing flexibility, circulation, and balance. Pregnant women who do these exercises can develop body alignment, improve concentration, and develop body shape and tone after pregnancy. According to Joseph Pilates, "You will feel better in 10 sessions, look better in 20 sessions and have a completely new body in 30 sessions."
Although Pilates is often associated with dancers, athletes, and younger people in general who are interested in improving their physical strength and flexibility, a simplified version of some Pilates exercises is also being used as of 2003 to lower the risk of hospital-related deconditioning in older adults. A Canadian study of hospitalized patients over the age of 70 found that those who were given a set of Pilates exercises that could be performed in bed recovered more rapidly than a control group given a set of passive range-of-motion exercises.
During the initial meeting, an instructor will analyze the client's posture and movement and design a specific training program. Once the program has been created, the sessions usually follow a basic pattern. A session generally begins with mat work and passive and active stretching. In passive stretching, the instructor moves and presses the client's body to stretch and elongate the muscles. During the active stretching period, the client preforms the stretches while the instructor watches their form and breathing. These exercises warm up the muscles in preparation for the machine work. The machines help the client to maintain the correct positioning required for each exercise.
There are over 500 exercises that were developed by Joseph Pilates. "Classical" exercises, according to the Pilates Studio in New York involve several principles. These include concentration, centering, flowing movement, and breath. Some instructors teach only the classical exercises originally taught by Joseph Pilates. Others design new exercises that are variations upon these classical forms in order to make the exercises more accessible for a specific person.
There are two primary exercise machines used for Pilates, the Universal Reformer and the Cadillac, and several smaller pieces of equipment. The Reformer resembles a single bed frame and is equipped with a carriage
that slides back and forth and adjustable springs that are used to regulate tension and resistance. Cables, bars, straps, and pulleys allow the exercises to be done from a variety of positions. Instructors usually work with their clients on the machines for 20-45 minutes. During this time, they are observing and giving feedback about alignment, breathing, and precision of movement. The exercises are done slowly and carefully so that the movements are smooth and flowing. This requires focused concentration and muscle control. The session ends with light stretching and a cool-down period.
Once the basics are learned from an instructor, from either one-on-one lessons or in a class, it is possible to train at home using videos. Exercise equipment for use at home is also available and many exercises can be performed on a mat.
A private session costs between $45–$75, depending on the part of the country one is in. This method is not specifically covered by insurance although it may be covered when the instructor is a licensed physical therapist.
The Pilates method is not a substitute for good physical therapy, although it has been increasingly used and recommended by physical therapists since the mid-1980s. People with chronic injuries are advised to see a physician.
As of early 2004, several physical therapists and gerontologists have done research studies on the Pilates method, although much more work needs to be done in this area. The appeal of the Pilates method to a wide population, coupled with a new interest in it on the part of rehabilitation therapists, suggests that further studies may soon be underway. Dancers and actors originally embraced the Pilates method as a form of strength training that did not create muscle bulk. Professional and amateur athletes also use these exercises to prevent reinjury. Sedentary people find Pilates to be a gentle, non-impact approach to conditioning. Pilates equipment and classes can be found in hospitals, health clubs, spas, and gyms.
There are two main centers for training and certification. The Pilates Studio in New York City certifies teachers in the "classical" exercises of "The Pilates Method." The teacher training program of The Pilates Studio involves seminar training and 600 apprenticeship hours. Perspective teachers need a strong background in Pilates. There is an extensive application and examination process. Classes are available throughout the United States and in 20 international locations.
The PhysicalMind Institute in Santa Fe, New Mexico, offers a 275-hour basic certification program in "The Method." Prerequisites include a 15-hour course, knowledge of functional anatomy, and 10 hours of private sessions. After completing an apprenticeship, students must pass a written and practical final exam. Advanced training is also offered. Students at this center receive training in the original exercises of Joseph Pilates, as well as the concepts of body mechanics. Understanding the concepts behind the exercises enables teachers to create appropriate variations for their clients. Classes are available throughout the United States and Canada.

Big Fat Friday Free For All
Diet start (June 1): 189
Last Friday: 173.2
Today: 171.0
Goal: Sub 160
Here we are again ladies and gentlemen, the weekly return of BFFFFA! What's on your mind? How excited are you for the start of college football? Looking forward to your kid's date with the President? Let it rip!
10 comments:
On Obama's Skoolyard Bloviations:
"The Department of Education should not be producing paid political advertising
for the president," said Rep. Richard Gephardt.
Patricia Schroeder said the
speech showed "the arrogance of power," and that the White House should not be "using precious dollars for campaigns" when "we are struggling for every silly
dime we can get" for education.
So remarked some of our representatives back when George H.W. Bush first addressed students back in 1991.
This morning's USA Today reports that lesson plans sent to schools originally suggested that students write letters to themselves "about what they can do to help the president".
The wording has since been changed to suggest that the students' letters focuson ways to achieve their educational goals; no doubt changed because concerned parents spoke up. - September 04, 2009

I'm putting out a hit on Dana Bible, NC State's offensive coordinator. We have an outstanding scrambling QB who can actually throw the ball and how does Bible use him? To quote this idiot, Wilson plays too fast, we need to make him play at NC State speed not Russell Wilson speed. So, he turns the guy into a pocket passer. Last year this guy ran rampant over Miami, some pretty quick guys. Last night he had negative rushing yardage. Our defense played well enough to win but our offense couldn't score in a brothel in a suit made of 100 dollar bills.
This guy is a friggin' maroon! - September 04, 2009

Does Van Jones, 9/11 truther and name-caller of Republicans, resign today, sometime during the weekend, or never?

Van Jones, wasn't he in all those "Love Bug" movies in the early '70s. Or is he the radical race-baiting Marxist from Oakland that keeps using the word asshole and Whitey when describing his love for the environment? I always get those guys confused.

It all comes down to the cult of personality. Our Most Beloved President Obama can do no wrong. He sends chills up the legs of his listeners.
Van Jones is just another (charismatic) radical with whom he associates. I wonder how many more of these crazies are going to come out of the wood work.
A science czar who doesn't believe babies are humans until they contribute to society (around age 6).
A green jobs special advisor who is really a Red.
A fiery black liberation reverend.
A Supreme Court Justice who seemed racist.
And an all around crazy dude to "regulate" without accountability to congress. - September 04, 2009

Van Jones is toast. If this is true (and you know it is because it's on the interwebs) he was on the Truther organizing committee. http://www.rense.com/general18/march.htm

One of the arguments against cap and trade is that the carbon tax will put our economy on an uneven playing field with India and China who are unlikely to subscribe to such emissions controls. If we forget about the controversial aim of reversing climate change for now and assume that to do so would stem the outflow of wealth to petrodictatorships, how is insisting on said tax different than the higher costs created for American owned companies by insisting they adhere to a higher human/workers' rights principles than other nations?

Van Jones will remain because just as it was prior to his election, the mindless electorate will not hold Obama accountable for his foibles.

- Patient Information:
Details with Side Effects
Patients should be told that the antianginal efficacy of Ismo (isosorbide mononitrate) tablets can be maintained by carefully following the prescribed schedule of dosing (two doses taken 7 hours apart). For most patients, this can be accomplished by taking the first dose on awakening and the second dose 7 hours later. As with other nitrates, daily headaches sometimes accompany treatment with isosorbide mononitrate. In patients who get these headaches, the headaches are a marker of the activity of the drug. Patients should resist the temptation to avoid headaches by altering the schedule of their treatment with isosorbide mononitrate, since loss of headache may be associated with simultaneous loss of antianginal efficacy. Aspirin and/or acetaminophen, on the other hand, often successfully relieve isosorbide mononitrate-induced headaches with no deleterious effect on isosorbide mononitrate's antianginal efficacy. Treatment with isosorbide mononitrate may be associated with lightheadedness on standing, especially just after rising from a recumbent or seated position. This effect may be more frequent in patients who have also consumed alcohol.

text: The NBA is filled with physical freaks of nature. It's the nature of the beast. It's part of the reason that we tune into the games. Kevin Durant is one such freak of nature. Coming into the league Durant was around 6'10" 215 pounds and had a wingspan that approached 7'5". But, Durant also wasn't able to put up a single rep on the 185 bench press portion of the NBA Pre-Draft Camp. His frailty led then coach PJ Carlesimo to play Durant at shooting guard most of the time for his rookie season. This decision is often mocked in retrospect because Durant's numbers look so askew to the rest of his career. But, who is to say that Durant would have thrived more in a small forward role as a rookie? What's clear is that those close to Durant and invested in his development were worried about his strength level and ability to take a pounding at the NBA level. Due to his slenderness it has been perceived by some that Durant is incapable of playing to the level some of the other star small forwards in the league like LeBron James and Carmelo Anthony because he isn't able to play as both a small and power forward. This notion is ill-conceived as Durant has evolved into a terrific hybrid forward. According to 82games.com Durant is actually quite more efficient at the four spot as you can see here: And, of the ten lineups he's featured the most, the ones with the three highest Win% of all feature him as the power forward of the lineup. Now, there is some leeway for this as him featuring at the four spot often is something that creates matchup issues for opposing team and thusly him playing in that role in smaller increments is likely to yield higher results since it is designed to be a more efficient set-up. But, still Durant has to have the skills to thrive in said situations and he's worked hard to get where he's at. Durant's upped his weight to a reported 235 pounds, though he still looks like a string bean. This added strength allows for him to hold his own while holding off and backing down defenders. The type of impact this has had on Durant's game can be seen in his post-up numbers. According to synergy sports Durant posted a PPP (points per play) of 0.83 in post up scoring situations in the 2010-11 season, good enough to rank 101st in the NBA and accounted for 6.5% of his taken scoring chances. The following season Durant upped that percentage to 10.5% and managed to up his PPP to 0.89, good enough for 50th in the NBA among those who attempted enough of that play type. This season, however, Durant has made the post up an even bigger part of his game with this play type accounting for 12.4% of his attempted scoring chances. In addition to utilizing this part of his game even more, he has become even better at it. Durant puts up a PPP of 1.12, which is currently tops in all of the NBA. Durant goes about this in a manner of different ways. Durant will take advantage of mismatches due to switching like he does here against Dallas, where he simply backs to a position where he is comfortable and shoots over his defender. But even if the Thunder are unable to force a switch, Durant can still make the most of his situation. Using quick footwork, Durant quickly sizes up the defender and is capable of blowing by someone and fight through the contact of someone whose height and length match-up similarly to Durant, as opposed to trying to back that person down and put up a highly-contested shot. He also is capable of recognizing that there's no need to try to force a switch and immediately establishes position like he does here versus the Lakers, and then forces his way deep into the paint where again he is able to shoot over the smaller defender. In addition to the drive-by, he's capable of freezing defenders and nailing the jump shot. Durant also nets a shooting foul 9.9% of the time he attempts one of these types of plays. He does a terrific job of recognizing that a double team is coming and puts them in a precocious situation by attacking through them on his way up towards the rim. There isn't a lot a help-defender can do to stop their momentum, especially if they already have their hands out trying to get some form of deflection on the ball. Oklahoma City also has sets where they attempt to get Durant deep position and boy is it scary. This is often how he forces fouls, or if he remains isolated he can use his nifty footwork to shake free of a defender and do this: But, Durant can't always establish a deep post position. But, he's worked on the ability to post for essentially the perimeter. This can be a negative, because it can be the cause of Durant not being open for an entry enough and putting Westbrook into the hard decision of forcing a pass or forcing a shot. But, Durant is improving on allowing defenders to attain a front, but sealing off the defender allowing for a lob pass and an easy path to the rim. And, the distance from the rim that he is capable of posting allows for a lot of room to work with for the passer. This isn't ideal for most defenses, so they continue to allow him to make a catch deep on the perimeter, but Durant uses his ability to shoot over smaller defenders or blow by slower ones turning the post ups into essentially isolation situations. And if that's not enough, Durant is working on the ability to shoot over even the most suitable of defenders. Durant is incorporating the Dirk-esque fade-away that is pretty much unguardable when executed by a player of his size and length. He's still not as proficient with it, because it takes him away from the basket to create separation from the defender. But, the threat of this move also creates the chance for a step-through as defenders try to contest it. He is able to score in the post in all of these manners and his game is even more expanding. The "Dream Shake" has been seen from time to time in my video research and he is capable of knocking down a myriad of floaters, finger-rolls and hook shots. Simply put, Durant is a versatile wave of destruction in post up situations that has overcame his perceived weakness and has worked hard enough is so skilled that he is capable of countering what defenses throw at him and still manage to put points on the board at a ridiculous rate. And to those who will try to argue that simply posting up is only one facet of the offensive spectrum, Durant also posts a PPP of 1.3 as roll man in pick-and-roll situations, which qualifies him as the 4th best in the NBA. So, while Kevin Durant may be perceived as a scrawny small forward without a power aspect to his game, it's simply not true. Durant has adapted his game to be just as if not more successful at portions of his game typically associated with these "power" players.

Surprising Essential Crafting Supply
When people ask me what is the one piece of crafting equipment I couldn't do without, I tell them their are 2 things. The first is a very sharp... razor sharp... pair of scissors. That's pretty straight forward. The second item is a little more unconventional :)
Everyone can understand the importance of a good pair of scissors, but it might surprise you to hear what I consider to be the other essential thing in crafting supplies. Several years ago I went to this quaint yarn shop in the garage of an elderly woman. She was definitely "off grid". I heard about her from my sister-in-law. Louise had a small house, on a small dirt road, with a small sign hand painted sign in her yard announcing the shop. To enter the shop you sauntered up the front walk, knocked on the door (the sign on her door asks you NOT to ring her doorbell 'cuz it makes the cats go crazy'), and waited for Louise to answer. When she did open the door the first time I went there, she was wearing a striking muumuu and oversized men's slippers. (True story.) She told me to meet her at the side door.
When she opened the shop's door (the service door to her garage) I felt like Dorothy entering Oz! From floor to ceiling in shelves on the walls and on (and under) an assortment of mismatched tables, was an array of beautiful yarns that rivaled the nicest yarn shops I have ever been in. When I asked her where she got her yarn, her answer was "here and there". As I rooted through the yarns, I marveled at the assortment of beautiful wool yarns. "Unfortunately, I can't knit with wools. I'm allergic and it destroys my hands."
"Oh, child, do I have something for you". And with a twinkle in her eyes (really... there was actual twinklage!), she introduced me to a product that changed my life... Gloves In A Bottle.
She explained that by rubbing this into your skin, you created a barrier between your skin and the wool, so it wouldn't bother my skin. When I seemed a bit skeptic, she STRONGLY encouraged me, so I bought a bottle, along with some wool yarn. I tried it, fell in love, and not only use it when working with wool (yarn and felt) but always. It's actually gotten rid of the eczema on my hands!
So here's the skinny on Gloves in a Bottle. Not only was I able to knit with wool (I rubbed it into my hands and my wrists), I found I was using it before I cleaned bathrooms, when I went into the garden, or for any wet or irritating tasks. Finally, I started using it as I would handcream. After a lifetime of dried and cracked hands, my hands are now soft and crack free. I do not use hand lotion anymore, which often burned my sensitive skin. Rather, I use a SMALL dab of Gloves In A Bottle a couple times a day... more if I'm doing particularly skin challenging tasks. It works like MAGIC for me. How does it work? (From the back of the bottle...)
"Conventional lotions only attempt to replace natural moisture with artificial moisture. The problem is they come woof when you was or touch something. In order for moisture to really do any good it needs to get below the second major layer of skin; only your natural moisture is going to reach that level. Unlike conventional lotions, Gloves In A Bottle will not wash off and helps keep out the moisture-robbing irritants while helping to retain natural moisture, resulting in smoother skin that is not dry. It comes off naturally with exfoliated skin cells."
When we were opening the shop, I told Michelle we HAD to carry Gloves In A Bottle. For one thing... I wanted it :) but I also wanted to give our readers a chance to try it for themselves. So, there you have it. I keep a couple 8 oz. bottles in my house and a 2 oz. bottle in my bag. Of course, I can't guarantee it will work for everyone, but it changed my life! We now carry Gloves In A Bottle in our shop. If you'd like to try it, make sure to visit Wee Folk Art Market Place during our two week opening August 6 through August 20. It's a staple in my crafting supplies :)
August 6 through August 20
2 oz - $5.95
How does it work against frequent hand washing?
I'm just wondering how often you need to reapply when you're washing your hands constantly. This is my biggest problem with normal lotions - you need to reapply all the time!!
I just ran across this the
I just ran across this the other day in a quilting shop. I have crazy severe eczema on one hand that cracks and bleeds on a daily basis. So, i was skeptical that it would help me at all and the sales lady sent me home with a sample. I love how it feels and that it absorbs fast. I hate having to wait for the grease to wear off before I can touch my fabrics with any other lotion. Already I can see it's going to at least be a big help. I'm really glad to have read your post. I'll be buying the big bottle then!

Lifestyle and home remedies
By Mayo Clinic staffDepending on your treatment plan for antiphospholipid syndrome, there are additional steps you can take to protect your health.
If you take anticoagulants
If your antiphospholipid syndrome requires that you take anticoagulant medication, take extra precautions to keep from injuring yourself and to avoid bleeding. Follow these suggestions:
- Avoid playing contact sports or engaging in other activities that could be dangerous or could cause you to fall.
- Use a softer toothbrush and waxed floss.
- Shave with an electric razor.
- Take extra care when using knives, scissors and other sharp tools.
Certain foods and medications may affect how well your anticoagulants work. Ask your doctor for guidance about:
Safe dietary choices. Vitamin K can lessen the effectiveness of warfarin. It's important to be consistent in how much vitamin K you get daily. The average daily allowance of vitamin K for adult men is 120 micrograms (mcg). For adult women, it's 90 mcg. While eating small amounts of foods that are rich in vitamin K shouldn't cause a problem, avoid eating large amounts of kale, spinach, Brussels sprouts, parsley, collard greens, mustard greens and chard.
On the other hand, cranberry juice and alcohol may dangerously increase warfarin's blood-thinning effect. Ask your doctor for advice about limiting or avoiding your intake of these drinks.
- Safe medications and dietary supplements. Certain medicines, vitamins and herbal products may interact dangerously with warfarin. Those most likely to cause problems include over-the-counter pain relievers, cold medicines, stomach remedies or multivitamins, as well as garlic, ginkgo and green tea products.
If you don't take anticoagulants
If you have antiphospholipid antibodies but do not take anticoagulant medication, take these precautions:
- Tell any doctors performing your medical care that you have antiphospholipid antibodies.
- Ask your health care providers to take measures to help prevent deep vein thrombosis if you are immobilized due to surgery or other medical reasons.
- Don't smoke.
- Take steps, such as reducing your cholesterol, to help prevent heart attack and stroke.

Christmas Trees
The Oneida-Herkimer Solid Waste Authority accepts Christmas trees generated during the holiday season at the Compost Site on Leland Avenue in Utica from January 3rd to January 31st. The Christmas trees are chipped and composted by the Authority for use by area gardeners in the Spring.
Contact your local municipality to see what the collection schedule and type of collection is for Christmas Trees (i.e. curbside or drop-off). Residents can also deliver trees during normal business hours Monday ? Friday 8:00 am to 4:00 pm and Saturday from 7:00 am until 2:00 pm to the Authority?s Leland Avenue Convenience Station in Utica until January 31st.
To reduce waste, use only reusable decorations on your holiday tree and avoid items such as tinsel, which is hard to remove and reuse again. Tinsel causes a problem when we recycle the Christmas trees into compost and mulch. Christmas wreaths should be disposed of with your regular garbage. Real and artificial wreaths are held together with wire and plastic, so they cannot be safely composted.
Remember to remove stands, garland, tinsel, lights and ornaments before the tree is set out for recycling. Also, discard your plastic tree bag in the trash after the tree is placed at the curb.

Carter named Big Sky Conference POTW
Feb. 5, 2013 University of Montana women's tennis sophomore Sasha Carter was selected as the Big Sky Player of the Week for her performance in Montana's road trip to Grand Forks on Feb. 1-2. Carter, who hails from Bainbridge Island, Wash., went 2-0 in her singles matches and then paired up with teammate junior Maddy Murray to pick up two wins for Montana in doubles matches. "Sasha has done a great job over the last year of continuing to raise the bar and improve upon her game," says head coach Steve Ascher. "This is great recognition for her hard work and a reward for the team as everyone competed well this weekend." On Friday, Carter defeated her opponent from Big Sky Conference newcomer North Dakota at the No. 2 singles spot. The sophomore downed Callie Ronkowski in two sets 6-1, 6-1. Then her and Murray helped clinch the doubles point for UM by securing an 8-2 win at the No. 3 doubles spots. Against South Dakota State on Saturday, Carter played the No. 1 spot in singles and beat Ffion Davies 6-3, 6-1. Then she went on to claim a 8-1 win with Murray at the No. 2 doubles spot. "I think this weekend went well for the entire team, not just me," says Carter. "I felt like my matches went well. We have all been working so hard and now it's paying off. This weekend was definitely fun." This is Carter's first time being honored as Player of the Week. Others that were nominated: Marian Tangarife - Idaho State

There are roughly 3.5 trillion photos in existence in the world. Facebook boasted a repository of more than 140 billion photos at the start of 2012. This includes digital photos, which make up the majority obviously, and those uploaded with digital scanning. People currently take about 380 billion photos a year, slightly less than 50% of them captured with camera phones. Facebook anticipates that it will have had 70 billion new photos uploaded over the course of 2012, or roughly 18% of all photos captured in the same year.
This is by far the largest collection of photos on the planet and is estimated to contain fully 4% of all photos ever taken. And it means a number of things for how photography and technology will develop in the near future. And as having gone public puts increasing pressure on the social network to invent new monetary streams, it's a fair bet they will look to get value from this huge and expensive archive.
With nearly 500 billion photos, Facebook will have enough information to help scientists develop incredibly accurate facial recognition software. They're already working on decreasing the amount of false positives with their automatic tagging tools, and users are inadvertently helping them refine algorithms. We can all imagine what could happen if a publically accessible repository of photos became available or if Facebook were able to sell this tool to marketing firms and other companies, creating a world where cameras mounted throughout public spaces could recognize us instantly.
Beyond obvious uses of digital photos, the way it collects these photos and data about them will offer Facebook a lot more information. As opposed to using digital scanning to share an old photo, digital shots that we often capture using smart phones and upload through a mobile connection we often tell Facebook exactly where we are using GPS and geotagging. It leads to relatively mundane things like the potential for Facebook to construct places or even your experience based on photos you upload, as well as to glean information about users that would be incredibly valuable to marketers based on where you go and what you like to do.
Furthermore, a few professionals at the company consider Facebook "the world's most powerful instrument for studying human society." This mainly refers to the aggregate of the information it collects, not just photos. But the constant upload of new photos becomes even more powerful in light of all this information. Algorithms that analyze basic info in the photos along with the information people associate with them and the photographer or uploader could learn a great deal about trends in our tastes and activities, be it for commercial or scholastic purposes. For example, if software were developed to compare the physical characteristics of a person in a photo such as pallor and posture, against other, older photos of the same person, it could identify emerging illness. Combined with information about the person's location and activity, this could hypothetically be used to pinpoint the "patient zero" in disease outbreaks.
Obviously, the power of the Facebook photo collection will increase as people upload more photos, more frequently, and closer to the time the photograph is captured. Similarly, the tools to analyze them, all this "big data" as it is called, are just slowly being imagined, let alone designed and tested. But the message is clear. For better or worse, Facebook is learning ever more about its users, through digital scanning of old photos, digital photo uploads, and the information we share, and it's only a matter of time before it can crystallize the photos you upload into clear information about you and your surroundings.

Agroforestry In-service Training: A Training Aid for Asia & the Pacific Islands (Peace Corps, 1984) |
Appendices |
Appendix E: Nitrogen-fixing tree resources: potentials and limitations |
With perhaps a thousand potentially significant N2-fixing trees to study in the tropics, where should research emphasis be placed? It seems wise to focus on species providing both forage and fuelwood to the small farmer. Few nonlegumes bear consideration, and species achieving less than 2 m annual growth should be excluded. Thorniness must be considered undesirable, despite the protection it gives against animal depradation. The following dual-purpose species appear to deserve extensive collection, genetic evaluation, and site adaptability studies:
Acacia spp.
(see Table 2)
Gliricidia sepium
Prosopis spp. (Table 2)

"It is a physician's ethical responsibility to take cognizance of a colleague's inability to practice medicine by reason of physical or mental illness, including alcoholism or drug dependence…Accountability to the public through assurance of competent care to patients by physicians and other health professionals is a paramount responsibility of organized medicine." -AMERICAN MEDICAL ASSOCIATION, 1973
In 1978, MedChi, the Maryland State Medical Society established a committee of physicians who volunteered their time and services to assist colleagues in need. Funding was later obtained through physician license fees which allowed the hiring of staff and a formal program structure to be put in place for assisting physicians. The Physician Health Committee continues to meet to provide clinical consultation for cases, discuss trends, outcomes and issues concerning physician impairment, identify issues of concern, and make recommendations to MedChi regarding advocacy. The Maryland Physician Health Program is administered by the Center for a Healthy Maryland, a 501c3 charitable organization and affiliate of MedChi.
The Maryland Physician Health Program is not affiliated with the Maryland Board of Physicians. The Program meets HIPAA compliance standards. Federal and state laws ensure the confidentiality of practitioners referred to the Program. Program records are non-discoverable and confidential to the extent covered by law. Exceptions to confidentiality include evidence of imminent harm to self or others through good-faith assessment by program staff, medical emergencies, court-ordered disclosures, and the State of Maryland mandated reporting requirements regarding child abuse and neglect.
The types of concerns encountered by the MPHP include:
Physicians and other practitioners licensed by the Maryland Board of Physicians experiencing problems can voluntarily contact the program by calling 410-962-5580 or 800-992-7010. Concerned colleagues or family members may also contact the program at the number above; the confidentiality of the referring individual will be honored upon request. Other referral sources include co-workers, hospital administrators, credentialing committees, therapists and other treatment providers.
The services of the Maryland Physician Health Program are available to practitioners licensed by the Maryland Board of Physicians, regardless of their affiliation with the Maryland State Medical Society.
Initial Consultation, Assessment and Referral
When a referral is made to the MPHP, the participant is invited for an initial consultation with program staff, including the Clinical Manager. This meeting provides an opportunity for open and honest communication regarding the presenting problem in order to review the situation and begin the evaluation process. If appropriate, the participant will be referred for an independent evaluation. If the evaluator identifies a need for treatment, the participant will be referred for treatment and enrolled in the program.
A participant with a verified problem typically enters into a five-year contract with the MPHP that allows for active monitoring of the participant's progress. The contract encompasses the participant's treatment plan, incorporating recommendations made by the evaluator. The case manager will monitor the participants' progress with treatment, vocational status, and if appropriate, the participant will undergo random toxicology screening.
Support and Advocacy
The scope of client advocacy involves providing reports to involved parties on behalf of the participant regarding their status with the program and their compliance, and progress with their treatment plan. Advocacy reports are sent with the permission and at the request of a participant to organizations such as the Maryland Board of Physicians, malpractice carriers, specialty boards, hospital or credentialing committees, and various legal entities.
When a participant successfully completes the requirements established in the contract and is in stabilized recovery, the MPHP Medical Director will review the case and the work of the MPHP is concluded. Participants may choose to sign additional contracts for as long as support and monitoring are desired or needed.
The MPHP can help hospitals meet Joint Commission requirements by providing information on physician impairment at Medical Staff meetings or Grand Rounds. A fifteen minute overview of MPHP services and a one hour CME lecture on physician impairment may be scheduled by contacting the MPHP Operations Manager, Michael Llufrio, firstname.lastname@example.com or by calling 410-962-5580 extension 5412.
The MPHP is financed through hospital and participant fees and donations. MPHP staff conducts an initial meeting with new participants. There is a $500 administrative fee for opening a case. Participants may be requested to undergo independent evaluations and/or treatment. In such cases, the participant may choose to access personal insurance plans, or pay out of pocket for any recommended evaluations, therapies or treatments, as well as toxicology screening (where allowed by the insurance plan). There is a monthly fee of $90 for case management services which commence upon a participant's signing an advocacy contract. At that time monitoring begins and advocacy when warranted is available.
