China only disputes islands with Vietnam and Philippines in the South China Sea.
China doesn't argue with Taiwan on any islands in the South China Sea since both governments say that those islands belong to China (of course they argue on which China).
China and Indonesia dispute on the ownership of a gas field in the South China Sea but not any island.
Both China and Taiwan has island dispute with Japan in the East China Sea. But Japan also has island dispute with Russia and Korea.
Of course China says it is right in its claim on those islands. So do Vietnam, Philippines, Malaysia, Taiwan.....etc. I don't see any party is so stupid saying it is not right.
You wrote: "As for Koreans, they don't know much Chinese, outside of writing their name. I know because my roommate in college for a year was Korean. My boss after college was Korean American (lived in Korea until he was 14), he did not know Chinese. Only the educated older generation would know now (ie people in their 60-70s). Remember in 1945 only 20-30% of Koreans were literate. In the DPRK the use of Chinese characters, ironically is banned by the government."
Not quite correct.
Up till the end of WWII, Koreans still learnt Chinese characters in school though under the Japanese colonial educational system, Hangul.
In '70s and '80s, there were serious agrument on whether Hanja (Chinese characters) should still be preserved for teaching. The "nationalist" clique won the argument and for some years Korean students didn't need to learn Chinese characters at all.
But with the rise of PRC since '90s, Chinese is hot again. South Koreans become the largest group of Chinese language learners and the chaebols would test the new employees on recognition of Hanja for employment.
It is similar to Singapore that their students were not required to learn Chinese in '60s and '70s but now most study it.
You wrote: "The last Vietnamese soldiers pulled out of Cambodia in 1989. The invasion of Cambodia was a good thing done with ill-intent. Had the Vietnamese not invaded, millions more would have died."
But if North Vietnam had never involved Cambodia in its "liberation" war, the ruthless Khmer Rouge would have never gained power.
Throughout '60s and early '70s, Cambodia was in a state of fragile peace under the rule of Prince Silhanouk (whom China supported till the end) that tried to walk on a tight balancing rope between North Vietnam and U.S.
It is North Vietnam that built the Ho Chi Minh Trail within the territory of Cambodia that brought U.S. bombing on Cambodia and the coup which brought the corrupt Lon Nol to power and hence came the Khmer Rouge.
If North Vietnam had conducted its own "liberation War" just within Vietnam, Prince Silhanouk might most likely still remain in power in Cambodia in 1975 and afterward.
I am fully aware the 16 days battle between Vietnam and China in 1979.
Vietnam, equiped by soviet union, boasted as world 3rd strongest army in the world, killed civilian Chinese on Vietnam China border.
PLA, weakened after 10 years cultural revolution, fxxxed Vietman
very very hard in the 16 days battle.
meanwhile, Soviet union only backed Vietnam with WORDS. another betral from Soviet.
Lesson: Do not trust the Russians! haha
Border military conflicts between Vietnam and China continued to 1980s, Vietnam, drained by the military cost, failed its 2 five year plan. Vietnamese lived in extreme poverty. Best connected Vietnamese worked in Sibera for pennies.
you want to add more?
@ killer martini
"Mind you, if China adopted our western friends methods handling weak nations, there is no Vietnam now."
Hehe. That's a good one :-)
And you think the male Viets would be plucking flowers for their girlfriends and wives all the while huh! Yeah sure. You must have forgotten the brutal war in 79!
Forget about Myanmar. They ain't got much choice apart from whatever piecemeal assistance they can get from India so they will continue to be a client state. More or less. Unless Su Kyi wins by a landslide. Which looks slim!
Instead it's better to focus on the Viets who seem to be on "full blast" recently reg issues in the South China Sea. After all technically AFAIK many of them are Han as well! As per some reports they are starting some live drills in the SCS on Monday.
Anyways I wonder what much, if anything, they can do. Legally SALT treaty covers only upto 200 nautical miles snd beyong that the water belongs to whoever has the BIGGER gun. Or MORE butter. Or both in this case!
That part of the world had been Uncle's backyard for decades. The problem is Uncle mostly does "offshore balancing" very well. But this one would require "onshore" balancing! Not clear to me if Uncle has the will or chutzpah to do it. Hilary can shout as much as she wants from rooftops who gives a heck. Mao's adage "A loud fart is better than a long (and boring!) speech" or something to that effect comes to mind!
TE seems to bl clutching at straws here. Oh dear!
To Song:
Oh, why I have to admit that these islands belong to China? History and documents proved that China has never owned islands legally
Regarding to fishermen, you quoted articles of China and showed it that we are wrong. Oh, if you red articles of Vietnam, it will be absolutely vice versa. If Chinese fishing boat was really robbed by Vietnam vessel, I think that Chinese Government had slaps to Vietnam. And I'm not here to argue with you. A thief crying "Stop thief"!
Your country's leaders always deny all mistakes.They always tell the world that :China always exact, China disputes islands with Vietnam, Philippines, Indonesia, Taiwan, Japan… , China not wrong, China equals to number one. OMG, God makes the perfect country!!!
China cut cable of oil exploring vessel of Vietnam , killed fishermen at the end of May, 2011. And they denied it at Shangri-la ( Oh, we – China -didn't do, we didn't know). And China is still waiting for reaction from Vietnam. But Vienamese Gov didn't re-act them. If Vietnamese Gov re-acted, China will have reason to punish Vietnam. Leaders of your country waited & waited. And no result. So they gave another idea LOL, on 9th June, China told that Vietnamese vessel robbed Chinese fishing boat. LOL, from deny their action to the action of reverse accusation. Shame on Chinese leaders.
Hoping that China will have Nobel Peace Prize in 2011
Learn to behave yourself. Vietnam has never been China brother. China invaded Vietnam for 1000 years and that's more that enough!
And by the way, if you are saying that the U-shaped oceanic zone of 1.7 million kilometers belong to China just because the name is South China sea, then you are wrong and too simple.
If China wants others to respect it, it do need to change its idiot agressive foreign policy toward its neighbors!
==> ANH LE: it is a tragedy that after China-Vietnam split Vietnam has underwent a rewriting of history, belittling China support of Vietnam war with French and later Americans. you are a product of this intellectual prostituion. but who cares?
I have to emphsize, especially to Vietnamese, that China wants no respect from its neighbors. China dispatched her best general and military staff to fight French and Americans imperialists, only helped to creat imperialistic Vietnamese colaborated with Soveit imperialists.
Not every nation on this planet deserves repect in the first place.
in a age of cynicalism and ingratitude, China and Chinese should not care less about being respected.
Mind you, if China adopted our western friends methods handling weak nations, there is no Vietnam now.

@Devils Advocate_1
"Chinese emigrating, legally and illegally, to other countries are responding to economic opportunities there-- Just like Indian emigration does. If there is no opportunity there, they will pack up and go home. Did you read another article about the gambling city that the Chinese built in Laos? When the gamblers did not materialise, all the Chinese went home.
You have a point about China controlling the Chinese emigrants but with a porous land border it is hard to control. People do not have to go through check-points but go around them. Even high fences can stop the flow-- Check the US-Mexican border. Alternative you could mine the entire border. But then you would have more than wild elephant carcasses to deal with."
China can curb it if it wants to, but chooses not to. If they can stop people from going into China (ie from North Korea or Vietnam) why can't stop people from going into Burma. When ethnic Han Chinese (many of them non-citizens) were fleeing from Burma in 2009 into China, China gave them shelter. There are many Korean Chinese who fled into North Korea during the Cultural Revolution (for obvious reasons), and started to enter into China in the 1990s (for obvious reasons) but are sent back to North Korea if caught. Its a double standard.]
I don't think "double standard" is peculiar to China or the Chinese. If there are people from North Korea or Vietnam caught getting into China, then obviously their respective governments also did not or failed to stop them. By the way, you certainly know that "virginity test" devised by Britain in the 1980's was designed to catch illegal immigrants from South Asia.
Recently, Uncle claimed diplomatic immunity for its CIA agent who killed several people in Pakistan. Have these Han Chinese fleeing from Burma in 2009 murdered any Burmese?
China also houses many illegal immigrants as well. Not all the North Korean illegal are returned to North Korea. There are tens of thousands of illegal immigrants, who entered China as traders and then over stay their visas, from Africa and South Asia in Guangzhou alone. Some of them have married local women and got Chinese citizenship. Same thing happens to all countries which are vibrant enough to attract economic migrants.
["Oh! there is another alternative-- Just shoot the illegal immigrants dead, like the way India do with Bangladesh illegal!"
Well, you are the one that suggested it. Don't give the Burmese any ideas, because they might take your advice. North Koreans shot Chinese traders dead trying to cross off into North Korea.]
If the Burmese want to stop Chinese illegal immigration, they should do their part of the job by sending them back to China as well. I read about the shooting story. I hope the Chinese traders have learnt the lesson with North Korea and keep clear.

Speaking of loyalty to Canada:
All Canadian citizens (including the ethnic Chinese) are subjects of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II and their loyalty should be first and foremost to the British Crown and not to some regime in China or Taiwan. Here is what the citizenship oath says: "I swear that I will be faithful to Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth the Second, Queen of Canada, Her Heirs and Successors"
Incidentally, Aung San Suu Kyi has an honorary Canadian citizenship and her mother-in-law is actually from Quebec.]
So, why don't YOU, and Aung San Suu Kyi, put your loyalty into Canada instead of Myanmar?
Quote: "...East Asians outperform Southeast Asians (except Singaporeans) and Indians in most international tests in reading and mathematics. Most likely it is because the former have learnt Chinese characters in school."
It is because East Asians has more tiger-mother than Indian !!
@ Live-in-hole
Give me actual proof of CHinese bad education instead of just lies.
This is actual report of education in India.
India Education test lead to "class struggle "
India Graduates Millions, but Too Few Are Fit to Hire
@ SMRT: Thanks for the reminder!
@ tocharian
You have all reasons you want to be loyal to the Queen or God! Your business.
But you as a Canadian which proved Canadian intergration system failed. You
are just a Racist!!
Vietnamese protest against violation of sovereignty ahead of Vietnam's naval drill amid a spat over territory in the South China Sea.
Note on history - there is no "Viet Nam" until 1000 years ago, so "invasion for 1000 years" just make no sense. "occupation of the land" is a more suitable word.

[...]In 1978,which country invade Cambodia?Now,Vietnam has Captured half of the islands and want more![...]
I think you should learn more about the history of the South East Asian coutries before making any comment. You have never heard about how Khmer Rouge killed more than one million of their own people, and that is genocide!
And you said that China won't give up on its islands... well, why do you think that they are YOUR islands? Vietnam has enough historical evidence to show the world that those islands belong to Vietnam. Besides, everyone is well aware that China is taking an assertive foreign policy to its neighbors, becoming more agressive as well as greedy about fish stock and oil reserves in the South East Asia sea (not the South China sea as you have always wanted to say that).
If China want to be a truthworthy partner with other countries, it better stop bullying its neighbors, stop being an opportunist, and try to be honest about what it's been and is doing. By the way, you should know that at the beginning of June, some of Chinese warships invaded Vietnam sea territories and cut the surveillance cable of a Vietnamese oil exploration vessel, and as usual, China denied what it has done.

The title Death in the Ring should not be taken literally. Most boxers don't die during fights. They survive their careers of violence but are too often left brain damaged and vulnerable to many other maladies, medical and psychological. Nevertheless, I haven't written an indictment of boxing. It is, rather, a celebration of the brave and talented men who in epic confrontations stir the souls of millions and thus persuade them to ignore the tragedies and premature deaths that await those who fight in the ring.
In this collection of thirty-eight chiseled short stories, George Thomas Clark introduces readers to actors, alcoholics, addicts, writers famous and unknown, a general, a lovelorn farmer, a family besieged by cancer, extraterrestrials threatening the world, a couple time traveling back to a critical battle, a deranged husband chasing his wife, and many more memorable people and events.
Hitler Here is a well researched and lyrically written biographical novel offering first-person stories by the Fuehrer and a variety of other characters. This intimate approach invites the reader to peer into Hitler's mind, talk to Eva Braun, joust with Goering, Goebbels, and Himmler, debate with the generals, fight on land and at sea and in the air, and huddle in the death camps as, everywhere, civilization is consumed.
Joseph McCarthy says he's a tough and dedicated guy in the boxing ring and U.S. Senate. Richard Nixon denies he's an awkward, resentful, and paranoid president. Fidel Castro asserts he's an appealing and inevitable historical character while embracing megalomania. And all three frigid warriors tell their stories as they fight again.

Skipping Toll on the Golden Gate Bridge
Oh, what a foolish risk it was. It really should be illegal. I don't know why it isn't. All rational people understand it's dangerous to drive while listening to Jim Morrison sing "Light My Fire." Actually, I had been thoroughly reasonable all day, easing out of my motel in San Francisco and carefully driving through […]

Ray Manzarek Opens The Doors
Surveying the ballroom I'm pleased it's similar to intimate clubs where The Doors generally played best. About five hundred people are filling the room and sipping drinks if they drink at all. For years, before my reformation, I would've viewed such mature restraint as an affront and camped at the two rear-corner bars. Ray Manzarek […]

Fabulous Recovery of Jim Morrison – Part 7
Three days after telling me to get my ass out of his hospital room, Jim Morrison died in a Paris apartment. Don't cry for the Jim who departed. Yearn for a less-tortured man who would've wanted to live and become a pensioner last year at age sixty-five. I'm a decade older still, and we're both […]

Saving Jim Morrison – Part 6
In early July 1971, I was vacationing in Paris.

Hi: 13° Lo:1°
A PARTY of French students were given a behind the scenes look at democracy in Bromsgrove during their visit to the town.
The 30 got to meet Civic Head, Coun John Ruck, whilst on their fact-finding question-and-answer session at the Council House in Burcot Lane.
The exchange trip was organised by LEC - a Paris-based organisation which provides language courses for French students in other countries, including the UK, the USA and some in Europe.
Coun Ruck said: "It was very encouraging to see a group of civic-minded young people interested in studying another society.
"They saw that the way we do things here is rather different from the French system.
"They were surprised that my role as Civic Head was unpaid and that the position does not have the same power or responsibilities as a French Mayor."
He added he hoped they would take back what they had learned.
"After all, every democracy relies on each new generation understanding their role as citizens, so that they can participate – and bring forward new ideas for improvement."
Any young person's group or school which wants to set up an educational visit to Bromsgrove District Council House should email Sharon Chaplin at email@example.com or call her on 01527 881484.

"Now, looking back I think the invention of Benjamin Black was John Banville's ploy to find his way out of what was suspiciously like a rut. I took the pseudonym to indicate that the venture was not an elaborate, post-modernist, literary joke. It is straightforward. I simply discovered I had this facility for cheap fiction."Said with tongue, no doubt, very firmly wedged in cheek. The vid below is taken from the end of the excellent documentary screened on RTE recently, Being John Banville, which was directed by Charlie McCarthy for Ice Box Films, in which Benny may or may not have inadvertently hit the why-writers-write nail squarely on the head …
"Yes, in a curious way, it's something I can't explain, I feel more estranged from the work of John Banville than from the novels of Benjamin Black. I've a certain pride in the Benjamin Black books. Those by Banville I hate and loathe and they embarrass me. They stand there, like a set of awful, unforgiven sins."
So who sells better? "I couldn't tell you," he says. "I don't ask. It's like asking your bank manager about your bank balance. It's always a shock — or a disappointment." Then he relents: "Black, in paperback I'd reckon, outsells Banville. But then, THE SEA — because of the Booker win — sold superbly. My great ambition," he adds, "is for Black to win the Booker and later on to pick up the Nobel."
News, reviews and interviews from award-winning crime / mystery author Declan Burke
"Burke shows again that he's not just a comic genius, but also a fine dramatic writer and storyteller." – Booklist. "Prose both scabrous and poetic." – Publishers Weekly. "Proust meets Chandler over a pint of Guinness." – Spectator. "A sheer pleasure." – Tana French. "Among the most memorable books of the year, of any genre." – Sunday Times. "A hardboiled delight." – Guardian. "Imagine Donald Westlake and Richard Stark collaborating on a screwball noir." – Kirkus Reviews. "A cross between Raymond Chandler and Flann O'Brien." – John Banville. "The effortless cool of Elmore Leonard at his peak." – Ray Banks. "A fine writer at the top of his game." – Lee Child.

3. Class in (2) must be thread-safe.
In looking at the code generated by lex/yacc it would appear the
generated code is NOT thread safe (lots of globals, etc.). This means
an app would have to put a mutex around calls to the parser, which
could kill performance.
Does bison or any other parser generators generate thread-safe code?

Did she cheat or not, 28.93 seconds is quite impressive but she is very young too. Are people really going to end up going all the way to the Olympics just to cheat and not get caught?
Innocent until proven guilty. But since her split times were ordinary for that level of competition and just the final leg was absurdly fast, I'm sure they have samples from after the race to determine how this could happen. The politicial climate dictates to some of these countries that yes, if we can get away with it, we will cheat. Also, in the capitalist countries, the endorsements are worth mega bucks to these athletes. It is because of their outstanding character that so few do cheat.

Colliding with deer is costly
Some vehicles rack up high insurance losses for hitting deer or other animals. West Virginia leads states in animal-strike claims.
November 20, 2012
Deer crashes jump in November
Vehicle damage from hitting an animal is more than 3½ times as common in November as in August, when claims are lowest. The high-claim period coincides with deer mating season, when bucks are likely to be roaming.
November 18, 2009
November is peak month for deer strikes
Insurance claims for crashes involving animals are nearly 3 times as high in November as in other months.
December 27, 2008
'Stop ahead' markings reduce crashes
Pavement markings that tell drivers they are approaching a stop sign are an easy and inexpensive way to reduce intersection crashes, a government study has found.

text: NEW ORLEANS - The last time Bryant McKinnie left the Vikings practice field in Mankato, he literally had to waddle. Considerably overweight and out of shape at the end of a long NFL lockout in August of 2011, he barely had the breath to speak as reporters walked with him for what would be his final moments in a Vikings uniform. Within 24 hours, he was released because of his physical condition and, he claims, for rejecting the team's request for him to take a pay cut. "When I was leaving Mankato that day, I didn't know where I was going," McKinnie said. "I knew I was going to play again. But I didn't know where or what would happen."

At least 10,000 joined the protest, triggered by a police raid on a student dormitory last Friday which resulted in three reported deaths, 20 hospitalized students and about 1,000 arrests. At the same time, university deans and other academic staff announced a sit-in on the campus today as a gesture of "hatred towards the tragic and bloody incident" of Friday. The university's chancellor resigned in protest against the police actions.
The Iranian government said yesterday it has fired two senior police officers for ordering the crackdown against the students.
The demonstrations are seen as the biggest test of government authority since the 1979 revolution, which brought down the monarchy.

People often point to requirements documents and process manuals as ways to guide a new tester. Research into knowledge transfer, as described in The Social Life of Information, suggests that there is much more to the process of learning. Michael Bolton describes his own experiences on a new project, noting how the documentation helped ... and didn't.
In these times, many of us are being told to "do more with less." A more useful approach is "invest our organization's scarce resources where the return is the greatest." To do so, we must define the financial benefits sought when developing a system in addition to its requirements.
To implement a meaningful incentive system for your team, you need to select metrics that encourage the behaviors you need and the results you want. But first you have to decide what you need and want.
We've all heard Einstein's definition of insanity, and it definitely holds true in software development. We "are" going to make mistakes in product development, but root-cause analysis can help us understand those mistakes and be proactive in not repeating them.
Most professionals have a detailed career ladder upon which to climb and grow their careers. But in many test organizations that ladder has only one rung—and it leads to management. If management isn't your path of choice, these tips can help you market yourself and add value to your career while you build your own technical career ladder.
Ever wondered what productivity experiments on factory workers in the early twentieth century have in common with today's adoption of agile practices? Lee sheds some light on the "process of process" and the importance of retrospectives as catalysts for change.
Just because a metric is easy to capture doesn't mean it is useful. The metrics that are really needed are the ones that can help you make good decisions. Find out how to establish a project dashboard with meaningful metrics that will guide your project safely to its destination without getting bogged down in an endless pursuit of unnecessary information.
An old adage says that you cannot manage what you cannot measure, but Mike Cohn thinks differently. Here, he offers suggestions on when to use metrics and when you can manage without, as well as some guidelines to help you choose your metrics carefully.
Agile methods have made their way to the software mainstream in the last few years. As more organizations turn to agile development, its definition often gets obscured. Learn the facts behind five common agile myths, as Robert Holler attempts to dispel these misconceptions.
Typical metrics are used to predict an outcome by comparing plans to actual results. They are objective and don't influence what you are trying to measure. Biased metrics, on the other hand, are a valuable tool for deliberately altering behavior to improve the performance of a group. Find out how biased metrics can be used on your projects to pinpoint problems in specific areas and to influence people to fix them.

The building that housed the Bank of Montpelier, which Butch Cassidy robbed on Aug. 13, 1896, still stands in Montpelier (pop. 2,785). Although it's now home to a printing company, the building features a Western facade and includes a sign that reads

How does CMS (formerly HCFA) reimbursement relate to MQSA certification?
As long as a facility has a valid MQSA certificate and meets MQSA quality standards, CMS will reimburse it for Medicare-covered screening and diagnostic mammography examinations. CMS also accepts MQSA inspections in lieu of conducting its own inspections. CMS will not reimburse facilities that do not have an MQSA certificate. The amount and frequency of reimbursement will still be governed by CMS regulations and facilities will still need to use their CMS provider number. To receive reimbursement from CMS, the facility needs to also submit the FDA or Certifying State facility ID number as it appears on its certificate to CMS with its request for reimbursement.

Deriving Bisimulation Congruences using 2-Categories
Sassone, V. and Sobocinski, P. (2003) Deriving Bisimulation Congruences using 2-Categories. Nordic Journal of Computing, 10, 163-183.
Download (334Kb) |
We introduce G-relative-pushouts (GRPO) which are a 2-categorical generalisation of relative-pushouts (RPO). They are suitable for deriving labelled transition systems (LTS) for process calculi where terms are viewed modulo structural congruence. We develop their basic properties and show that bisimulation on the LTS derived via GRPOs is a congruence, provided that sufficiently many GRPOs exist. The theory is applied to a simple subset of CCS and the resulting LTS is compared to one derived using a procedure proposed by Sewell.

America's 10 Best In-N-Out Burger Outposts

Of all the burger chains in America, the one with arguably the biggest cult following may be In-N-Out Burger, with Shake Shack at a close second. There are 295 locations of the beloved chain nationwide, and while it may appear as if they're all created equal, some are superior to others. We've found the top 10 locations of In-N-Out, ones that every devoted fan should add to their must-visit list.
America's 10 Best In-N-Out Burger Outposts (Slideshow)
The first In-N-Out opened in 1948 in Baldwin Park, Calif., a small stand with just enough room to prepare the burgers. Founders Harry and Esther Snyder had a novel idea: allow customers to drive directly up to the restaurant, order through a two-way speaker box, and be handed their meal without even getting out of their car. The original stand was demolished years ago in order to construct a freeway, but a near-exact replica was unveiled last month, complete with antique kitchen equipment, and it's become a major tourist attraction.
In 1951, a second In-N-Out Burger opened, and by the time that Harry Snyder passed away in 1976, there were 18 locations. His sons Rich and Guy took over, each continuing to expand the chain while maintaining the strict quality and cleanliness levels that Harry implemented. Ninety-three locations were open by the time Guy passed away in 1993, and there were 140 when Rich passed away in 1999.
Today, the chain is run by Guy's daughter, 31 year-old Lynsi Torres (née Snyder), and while she keeps a low profile for America's youngest woman with a 10-digit net worth (about $500 million, according to Forbes) she's doing a great job of carrying on her grandfather's company. Her commitment to not change anything about the company has paid out in dividends, as the no-frills menu of burgers, fries, and shakes prepared with the freshest ingredients has bucked trends like breakfast, which just about every other chain is currently serving. All locations are also company-owned instead of franchised, and the need to be a truck's drive from distribution centers means that all locations need to be west of the Mississippi, for now.
While uniformity is one of In-N-Out's most prized assets, that doesn't mean that every location is exactly alike, and some are superior to others. There's the one that's entirely outdoors, for example, and the two that also include company stores. Others boast spectacular views, and others are noteworthy just because they're there, in a place where locals have been praying for one for years like Austin, Texas.
Read on to learn which In-N-Out Burger locations are the best.

Top-ranked recipe named "Texas-Style Chicken Fried Steak with Cream Gravy"
Try this Texas-Style Chicken Fried Steak with Cream Gravy recipe, or contribute your own. "Main Dish" and "Milk" are two tags used to describe Texas-Style Chicken Fried Steak with Cream Gravy.
"My husband LOVED IT!!! Had cheddar biscuits and sunny side up eggs with it, and he dumped the country gravy over everything & ate to his heart's content :) I KNOW he liked it when he packed up the leftovers right away for his lunch tomorrow! It's a winner & will be in the rotation from now on."
- NormaMegeeLightly beat egg and milk and set aside. Combine flour and spices, mix well, and turn out onto a flat-surfaced dish or tray. Dip each cutlet into the milk/egg mixture, then dredge each in the flour mixture, then dip back into the milk/egg mixture. Heat cooking oil in a large cast-iron or other heavy skillet over medium-high heat for a few minutes. Check it with a drop of the egg/milk mixture; if it pops and sizzles, its ready. With a long-handled fork, carefully place each cutlet into the hot oil. Protect yourself (and your kitchen) from the popping grease that results. Allow cutlets to fry for 3 or 4 minutes, then turn with your long-handled fork. Cook another 3 or 4 minutes, depending upon the size of the cutlets. Remove cutlets from oil and allow to drain on paper towels. Cream Gravy: After cutlets are removed from pan, pour off all but about 3 Tablespoons of the oil, keeping as many as possible of the browned bits in the pan. Heat the oil over medium heat until hot. Sprinkle 1/2 cup flour (use the left-over flour from the chicken fried steak recipe -- waste not ~- want not) in the hot oil. Stir with a wooden spoon, quickly, to brown the flour. Slowly add 3/4 cup milk and 3/4 cup water, mixed together, stirring constantly with the wooden spoon and mashing out any lumps. Lower heat, and gravy will begin to thicken. Continue cooking and stirring a few minutes until gravy reaches desired thickness. [Note to persons new to Cream Gravy: Gravy-making is an inexact science. Cream gravy is supposed to be thick, but if you think its too thick, add more liquid until you like it.] Check seasonings and add more salt and pepper according to your taste. Notes: It would be hard to get much more Texan than Chicken Fried Steak. Quality of the beef really counts in this dish. This recipe calls for cube steaks, but good round steak that you have asked the butcher to run through the tenderizer or that you have tenderized yourself with a mallet (no big deal and can be a real stress reliever) can be even better.

Well, it seems that election night did what our public education system (in some places) is not allowed to do, teach Republicans about evolution. Evolution occurs when internal genetic mutations combine with external environmental factors to result in changes in the overall structure. Let's examine how Republicans have learned this hard truth over the past few days.
External Factors
First, let's look at the external factors at work here. Of course, the biggest event here is the "stunning" defeat in Tuesday's election, which makes the voters the biggest external factor. When your goal is to win elections, and you lose that many of them, it can be a significant motivator to change your previous behavior. But, if we delve a little deeper, we can even point to more specific factors. We are all already aware of these: immigration policy, women's rights, voter suppression efforts, economic issues, etc. Reaction to Republican stances on these issues has been noticeable and organized. The key word here is organized. The voters who care most deeply about these issues came out en masse on Tuesday to vote against Republicans. The Republicans interacted with their environment, and their inability to cope has brought them to the verge of extinction.
Internal Mutations
The internal mutations here deal with Republican stances on some very important issues. As previously stated, the issues are immigration, women's rights, voter suppression, economic issues. The Republican stances have mutated further and further to the right, so much so that the environmental circumstances are slowly driving them to extinction. On immigration, Republicans have mutated from Saint Reagan's amnesty policy to self-deportation, giant fences along the entire border with Mexico, and armed vigilantes meting out their own brand of justice along the border. We need hardly probe into the Republican mutations on women's rights. Republicans have mutated from a policy of women simply performing "common women's roles" to women not even having control over their own bodies anymore. Republican mutations on voters went from covert gerrymandering of districts (which they still do) to overt statements about, and attempts at, discouraging people from voting. Economically speaking, Republicans have mutated from simply advocating for economic policies that favor the rich to holding the rest of us hostage to achieve that end. The internal mutations within the Republican Party are making it more difficult for them to survive in their current environment.
Changes in the Structure
As a result of the external factors and the internal mutations of the Republican Party, evolution has occurred and changes have been made in the structure of the party itself. Note these clear examples of Republican evolution:
• Immigration
o Before: After signing the Immigration Reform and Control Act, Saint Reagan said, "The legalization provisions in this act will go far to improve the lives of a class of individuals who now must hide in the shadows, without access to many of the benefits of a free and open society. Very soon many of these men and women will be able to step into the sunlight and, ultimately, if they choose, they may become Americans."
o After: Today, Speaker Boehner said, "I'm confident that the president, myself, others can find the common ground to take care of this issue once and for all."
• Women's rights
o Before: Todd Akin said, "I think there should be some punishment, but the punishment ought to be of the rapist, and not attacking the child." (Or insert your favorite "Rape Advisory Chart" comment here.)
o After: Peggy Noonan, on Fox News after the election, "You cannot dodge, I think, the reality that the Republican Party has a woman problem."
• Voter Suppression
o Before: Florida Governor Rick Scott restricted early voting days, shut down voter registration drives, and disenfranchised the felon vote, in addition to creating a four page long ballot that, in part, lead to long lines on Election Day.
o After: Newt Gingrich, after the election, "We were wrong."
• Economic Issues
o Before: Mitch McConnell on Aug. 3, 2011, discussing the debt ceiling: "it's a hostage that's worth ransoming"
o After: Speaker Boehner, in his statement after the election, "Because the American people expect us to find common ground, we are willing to accept some additional revenues, via tax reform."
Witness the Evolution!
Of course, at this point it is only words, without action to back it up. Stay tuned to see if the actions follow. You may be witnessing the extinction of the Republican Party.

Public to weigh in on proposed Nashua budget
A public hearing on the recommended budget will take place at 7 p.m. Monday at Nashua High School North, where residents may voice their opinions on the proposed combined annual municipal budget of $256.5 million.
The Budget Review Committee has been meeting frequently to study and analyze the 267-page proposal, which represents a 2.2 percent increase over the existing municipal budget of $251.1 million.
"I think the budget is an excellent budget. It is highly transparent," former alderman Fred Teeboom told the committee this week.
Although the establishment of the fund would reduce the general fund revenue by $2 million, Lozeau said it is an ideal way to address long-term road infrastructure needs.
"I think this is a really good solution," said the mayor. While some people have argued her proposal is a way to avoid the city's spending cap, Lozeau said that both revenue sources — the motor vehicle permit fees and the highway block grant — are user fees and are both allowed to be used toward special revenue funds. Edward Mooney, of 44 Amherst St., told the committee to think twice about establishing the special revenue fund being proposed by the mayor.
He urged the committee to return the block grant to the budget and instead create a line item for paving.

is a UK based not-for-profit organisation campaigning for environmentally and economically effective climate policies, with a focus on the EU Emissions Trading System (ETS).
Our campaigns are supported by in-house research that monitors the environmental robustness of the ETS, the distribution of allowances, and how key sectors, installations and companies in the scheme are affected. Through small changes in carbon markets, both in Europe and across the world,
billions of tonnes
of carbon dioxide can be prevented from entering the atmosphere; with our analysis and lobbying, we can make sure that's what happens.
Join us in calling for
tighter caps on emissions

Jackson PC1 Au Natural
We just unpacked this one and it's BADASS! Lead guitarist for one of the biggest-selling rock bands ever - the hugely influential, U.K. hit factory known as Def Leppard. Phil Collen has wrung so many classic riffs, solos, parts and progressions from Jackson guitars that it's impossible to imagine the '80s and '90s rock charts - or Jackson history - without him. Collen's PC1 was one of the original Jackson signature guitars; based on the Dinky model but featuring more exotic woods and the Jackson sustainer/driver system. Neck Type: Bolt-On Quartersawn Maple Body Wood: Mahogany with Quilted Maple Top Fingerboard Species: Flame Maple Number of Frets: 24 Bridge Pickup: DiMarzio Super 3 Humbucking Pickup Neck Pickup: Jackson Sustainer/Driver Controls: Master Volume, Master Tone, Intensity Control, Sustainer/Driver On/Off Switch, Fundamental/Harmonic/Blend Switch Special Electronics: 18-Volt Jackson Sustainer System, CTS Pots and Switchcraft Switches Deluxe Jackson Molded Case by SKB Hardware: Gold-Plated MSRP $3199.99, Advertised Price $2399.99 When you buy from me you'll pay no sales tax if you're outside of MA, get free shipping inside the USA, we include a free pro-setup to your exact specs, you can take your time paying with 6 months 0% interest financing, and I guarantee you won't find better pricing/service anywhere!
