Letter: Simply not so
David Bolduc, Naples
Simply not so
Recent fluoridation letters have made two interesting claims: fluoridation is simply adjusting natural fluoride, already present in the water, to a level of 0.7 parts per million (ppm), and there are more than 3,000 studies demonstrating fluoridation's safety and effectiveness.
Both claims are equally false.
First, the true form of fluoride added to the Naples and Collier County drinking water is sodium fluorosilicate, an extremely toxic mix of industrial waste recovered from the smokestacks of the phosphate and aluminum industries. This silicofluoride is never found in nature.
There are zero studies demonstrating the health and safety of ingesting sodium fluorosilicate. This was confirmed in a Nov. 16, 2000, letter from an administrator at the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to Prof. Roger Masters, Dartmouth College, stating: "To answer your first question on whether we have in our possession empirical scientific data on the effects of sodium silicofluoride (aka sodium fluorosilicate) on health and behavior, our answer is no."
Adding naturally occurring fluoride to drinking water backed by thousands of studies is a myth. Adding sodium fluorosilicate, labeled as poison with a skull and cross bones and a Department of Transportation Classification of 6, equivalent to cyanide, from industrial smokestacks with no studies, is a fact.
Based on the facts above, Dr. Robert Carton, a senior risk assessment scientist, who spent 20 years working for the EPA, stated: "Fluoridation is the greatest case of scientific fraud of this century, if not of all time."

A Nucleotide Switch as the Predominant Mechanism Preventing Re-initiation of DNA Replication in Escherichia coli
The process of chromosomal DNA replication in all living organisms is a highly regulated process, ensuring that a round of DNA replication occurs once, and only once, per associated cell cycle. In the gram-negative bacterium, Escherichia coli, initiation of DNA replication is triggered at a single DNA origin, oriC, by the initiator protein, DnaA. Three cellular mechanisms are thought to participate in a complementary manner to maintain tight control over this process. These include: the physical sequestration of oriC by SeqA protein, the titration of DnaA away from the origin by the datA chromosomal locus, and the accelerated hydrolysis of active ATP-DnaA, to inactive ADP-DnaA, termed RIDA (regulatory inactivation of DnaA). The recent discovery of the novel Hda protein as a necessary component of RIDA enabled the further investigation of this activity in vivo. Although Hda-deficient (Dhda) E. coli cells continue to grow and survive, flow cytometric analysis revealed that a lack of functional Hda results in asynchronous initiation events and over-initiation, indicating a loss of tight control over the initiation process. In addition, the extent of over-initiation in E. coli cells engineered to be deficient in one of the known DNA replication control mechanisms (Dhda, DseqA, DdatA) was investigated by quantitative genomic DNA microarray analysis. The results indicate that the DnaA nucleotide switch mechanism, which requires Hda, is the predominant mechanism preventing inappropriate re-initiation events at oriC. Further flow cytometric and light scattering analyses of SeqA-deficient (DseqA) E. coli cells indicate an increased cell size in conjunction with increased DNA content, supporting a model in which SeqA plays a more dominant role at the levels of chromosomal DNA organization and segregation in the cell.

Great produce on offer at Fair
Published 11/12/2012 | 12:47
HOME BAKING, homemade soup, chopping boards and personalised cupcakes all added to the mix at the New Oak Community Centre Christmas fair. As always the coffee dock and the home baking section were big hits on the day along with chairwoman of the centre, Sharon Parker Byrne's homemade soup.
Transition year student Sean Crowley from Oaklawns created some heavy duty wooden chopping boards which proved to be a big favourite among shoppers.
' We had his brother here a few years ago and he made really nice mirrors, they are really talented. Their father is a woodwork teacher,' said Sharon Parker Byrne.
The sale, which ran throughout Saturday, included also crochet and knitwear from Sadie's Home Creations, gifts and decorations and personalised cupcakes from Cupalicious.
'It was a great day,' she added. 'It was really well supported and the stall holders were all very happy with the turnout.'

A restroom facility at Big Rock campground in Huntington Canyon becomes an island in the stream as torrents pour down from the high country of the Wasatch Plateau.
As a sign of what's in store, motorcyclists on Skyline Drive cruise past ten-foot-tall snowbanks piled on the side of the road.
A solitary angler tries his luck at Mammoth Reservoir. There are still patches of ice on the pond and remains surrounded by unmelted snowpack.
Overall, the water content in the unmelted snow in Southeastern Utah was at 442 percent of normal, according to the National Resources Conservation Service.
While snowfall was less than 150 percent of normal, the long, cold and wet spring has slowed the pace of the melt. That has compressed runoff season into just one month instead of two.
As of Sunday night, the level of Scofield Reservoir was a few inches below the spillway but had not yet begun to spill.
Meanwhile, the U.S. Forest Service and Bureau of Land Management are advising river runners and campers that conditions in and near rivers continue to be hazardous in the back country.
The BLM reported the Green River is at flood stage, cresting at 16.5 feet while flooding is defined at 15 feet. The agency has closed the Swasey's campground north of Green River city and Sand Wash facilities are already under water.
The river is raging at 48,000 cubic feet per second, just shy of the 48,300 marked in 1983.
Kayaks and canoes are advised to stay off the river until runoff has run its course.

Provocateurs Call For Violence To Demonize Legitimate Protesters At DNC
Posted By admin On August 26, 2008 @ 6:49 pm In Featured Stories,Old Infowars Posts Style | Comments Disabled
Paul Joseph Watson
Prison Planet.com
Tuesday, August 26, 2008
The spectacle of two individuals caught on camera calling for violence and then affiliating themselves with peaceful demonstrators in Denver has raised questions about who is behind apparent "agent provocateurs," intent on demonizing legitimate protest groups at the Democratic National Convention.
Several news outlets reported that nationally syndicated radio talk show host Alex Jones had "threatened" neo-conservative pundit Michelle Malkin during a confrontation between the two yesterday.
The same websites then claimed that people affiliated with Jones had screamed "Kill Michelle Malkin" and advocated violence against the columnist.
"Jones and his lackeys chased Michelle around the protest threatening to kill her!" claims the Gateway Pundit blog.
Other news sources, including People's Press Collective and Political Byline, re-iterated the false charge and alleged that Jones had threatened Malkin.
In reality, the You Tube video of the incident shows two young men in court jester outfits approach Jones, claim they are fans of his and then put their arms around him for a photo opportunity. They then go off camera and advocate the murder of Malkin, continuing their threats despite the best efforts of Jones' colleague Luke Rudkowski to make them cease their outburst.
Tellingly, the man in green (and Jones' "lackey" according to the reports) also shouts, "Alex Jones is a capitalist stooge."
This incident was clearly a staged set-up to fool the watching media into thinking that people affiliated with Jones were calling for violence, thus demonizing Jones himself and the rest of the peaceful protesters who were confronting Malkin.
It was "frat-boy type" instigators, notes Aaron Dykes, editor of The Jones Report, "wearing court jester hats and making inflammatory statements." Dykes further states that, after chanting for Malkin's death, these instigators asked why Alex had called for violence against Malkin.
Alex Jones nor any of his colleagues have ever called for violence against Michelle Malkin or any other individual. Confrontational protest is one thing, but assault and death threats are something that Alex Jones has vehemently denounced throughout his years of activism.
For clues about who the mysterious "court jesters" really belong to, consider the fact that members of the Re-Create 68 protest group, a self-proclaimed left-wing anarchist organization, voiced their support for right-wing Malkin throughout the confrontation with Jones, with one member, Kenneth Sanchez, at one point yelling "Michelle Malkin is a true patriot!"
According to other protest groups, Re-Create 68 is a COINTELPRO-style project designed to discredit legitimate antiwar groups by instigating violence in Denver during the DNC. According to Alex Jones, members of Re-Create 68 have habitually attempted to taunt police and provoke riots during the first few days of the convention.
Discovering the true identity and affiliation of the two individuals seen in the video calling for violence is key to preventing the wholesale demonization of legitimate protest groups as well as stopping a potential police crackdown which may come as a result of these instigators provoking riots.

Learn about the basic principles that govern the physical world around us. Solid understanding of algebra and a basic understanding of trigonometry necessary.
One-dimensional motion
In this tutorial we begin to explore ideas of velocity and acceleration. We do exciting things like throw things off cliffs (far safer on paper than in real life) and see how high a ball will fly in the air.
Two-dimensional motion
You understand velocity and acceleration well in one-dimension. Now we can explore scenarios that are even more fun. With a little bit of trigonometry (you might want to review your basic trig, especially what sin and cos are), we can think about whether a baseball can clear the "green monster" at Fenway Park.
Forces and Newton's laws of motion
This tutorial is the meat of much of classical physics. We think about what a force is and how Newton changed the world's (and possibly your) view of how reality works.
Work and energy
Work and energy. Potential energy. Kinetic energy. Mechanical advantage. Springs and Hooke's law.
Impacts and linear momentum
Linear momentum. Conservation of momentum. Elastic collisions.
Moments, torque, and angular momentum
Thinking about making things rotate. Center of mass, torque, moments and angular velocity.
Classical gravity. How masses attract each other (according to Newton).
Oscillatory motion
Pendulums. Slinkies. You when you have to use the bathroom but it is occupied. These all go back and forth over and over and over again. This tutorial explores this type of motion.
Atmospheric pressure is like an invisible friend who is always squeezing you with a big hug. Learn more about pressure, buoyant force, and flowing fluid so you can appreciate the sometimes invisible, but crucial, effect they have on us and the world around us.
Electricity and magnetism
Electrical circuits are all around us. The computer you're using to read this is full of them! Let's start to study how electrical charges interact.
Mechanical waves and sound

When I use the official remote app for WD TV Live on my Ipad it is only shown in Iphone format. Furthermore; the app doesn't rotate and scale poorly (when you magnify the app).
So it could be nice with a proper app for remote :-)
Not only for the iPad, it would be nice if there was an Android 3 and/or Android 4 tablet app as well.
iPad version of the app would be great
Yeah, iPad Version will be great, but it will be nice if there is a search function or something to choose music from a NAS to hear music without switch on the TV.

It follows the resignation of Anthony Hobson, non-executive chairman of the company, of the company. Directors David Nish, Orna Ni-Chionna, Tony Illsley and Sandra Turner also stepped down.
Boparan has now become chairman with Baljinder Boparan, Kuldip Kular, Jon Silk and Graham Hunter all becoming new directors.
The board room shake-up brings to a conclusion the long-running saga over the future of Northern Foods. Boparan received approval from regulators for his takeover move to go ahead last week after he beat Irish business Greencore to clinch a deal with the business.
Boparan, a West Midlands-based entrepreneur, plans to delist Northern Foods, which has been a publicly listed business for 55 years. He already owns supermarket chicken supplier 2 Sisters and the Harry Ramsden's chain.

London-based architect Foster and Partners has warned staff of an undisclosed number of planned job cuts. With offices in Berlin and Istanbul closing, staff numbers will fall to the mid-2007 level of under 1,000, estimates Mouzhan Majidi, the firm's chief executive. Having 80% international work cushioned the firm from local downturns. "However, a number of our international clients have fallen victim to the economic climate, and...some projects have been delayed or cancelled," he adds. Europe's planned tallest building, the 600-m-tall Russia Tower in Moscow, is among Foster projects that will be halted.

Fantastic animator Sandro Cleuzo sent me an email this week to tell me about the blog he has started. Only six posts in and it's all great stuff. I can't wait for more. He's including some background of the images in each post, which will be of interest to those who like to learn about production work that never made it to the screen.
Sandro easily fits in my top ten of working traditional animators – if you think the drawings are beautiful, you should him move them on screen. I had the pleasure of watching him work on The Emperor's New Groove, Sweating Bullets/Home on the Range, and The Princess and the Frog. Check him out:
Wow! I checked out! These designs are BEAUTIFUL! I wished that Mata would've been in "Emperor's New Groove". She's hot. I wish that there were interviews with guys like Sandro who worked for Don Bluth. Ken Duncan talked a little about it. Keep up the good work, Sandro!
very original ,never saw this kind of design before.Great.
I bookmarked the blog. Love these drawings! The pirate one is really cool especially. Very appealing.
Looking forward to the next podcast btw!
"very original ,never saw this kind of design before.Great."
If you are who I am certain you are… methinks you are being sarcastic.
Thank you for sharing that link. Amazing work there, I love his designs and character work! Would be really great to listen to him talking about his work and thoughts.
Grande Sandro! nice work!
i love it………

Video: DNA samples given at ECC
BUFFALO, NY-An unusual drop-in collection process wrapped up Saturday at Erie Community College; offenders convicted of crimes turned up to provide a sample of their DNA.
Over 100 people came in voluntarily to have the samples taken by investigators and technicians from the Erie County District Attorney's office and the Sheriff's Department and those samples will be sent on to the state's DNA databank.
About 1,300 letters went out to uch offenders in Erie County to warn they must be in compliance with the law. This effort contacts individuals who may have fallen through the cracks of the legal system.
"They should have submitted their sample in the last year when we tightened up the reins a little bit," said John Cleary with the Erie County DA's office. "The New York State court officers are now, once you get convicted of a crime in the court, the court officers will take their DNA sample and submit it to the DNA databank. The law came into effect like January 2012 and no one was really enforcing it."
Those who do not comply may face a court order to do so. The county ran a similar program last year. The database is used to determine if past offenders can be linked to crimes.

Alabama QB AJ McCarron has heard it plenty during this pre-draft process: He's not as good as the Johnny Manziels, Blake Bortles and Teddy Bridgewaters of the world, despite none of them possessing anything close to the winning record that McCarron put up in winning 36 of his 40 college starts and two national championships, according to Yahoo Sports.
AJ McCarron has a message for critics
McCarron has been defensive about his achievements and has a strong belief that he's as good as any other quarterback in this year's class — and he spent a few minutes talking to Shutdown Corner about where he feels he could be taken and why some people just can't seem to get on his side.
McCarron, who is promoting AXE Hair, also talked to us about Nick Saban's famous on-camera rant, playing ping pong and dominoes in Uncle Rusty's garage on draft weekend, why McCarron skipped a meeting with the Tennessee Titans and the guff his new buddy Jadeveon Clowney takes, Yahoo Sports reports.

Tuesday, October 27, 2009
© Copyright 2015 Gwinnett Daily Post
ATLANTA -- The Georgia Charter Schools Commission has been honored with a national award for working to create environments that foster schools with high student achievement.
The commission, which approved Ivy Preparatory Academy in Norcross, is one of three winners of the National Association of Charter School Authorizers Fund for Authorizing Excellence Awards. The announcement was made last week at the NACSA conference in Salt Lake City.
The state organization received a $35,000 grant from NACSA -- through a fund supported by the Walton Family Foundation -- to develop and finalize its first comprehensive strategic plan.
"We are excited that NACSA has recognized that the Georgia Charter Schools Commission is at the forefront of quality charter school authorizing in the nation," said Georgia Department of Education Associate Superintendent Andrew Broy. "The Commission takes its obligation very seriously and will use these funds to ensure that authorization takes place with our ultimate goal in mind -- to create high quality public school options for Georgia's students."
Created by the Georgia General Assembly in 2008, the Commission contains seven members -- three appointed by the governor, two appointed by the lieutenant governor and two appointed by the speaker of the House -- with the power to authorize charter schools statewide.
Charter schools are public schools designed to operate independent of federal, state and local regulation in exchange for increased accountability in student achievement. They receive taxpayer money but operate independently and set their own goals for meeting federal No Child Left Behind standards. The schools usually are run by groups of parents, business leaders or community members.
Ivy Prep and the Charter Conservatory for Liberal Arts and Technology in Statesboro were the first charter schools to be approved by the Commission. The charter petitions for both schools were initially denied by their respective county school boards, but both schools received permission from the state Board of Education to open as state-chartered special schools. As such, however, the schools only received state tax dollars.
After being approved by the commission, both schools became eligible for more funding. The state withheld money from the school systems to match the funding the charter school students would have received if the schools had been approved locally.
Gwinnett County Public Schools, however, has challenged the constitutionality of the commission. The school system filed a lawsuit in September alleging that the state is illegally forcing Gwinnett to fund the Norcross charter school by withholding money.
Gwinnett was the first system to file suit, but four others, including Atlanta and DeKalb, have since sued the Commission.

THIS IS AN ACTUAL REPORT. It is not related in any way to the active shooter exercise that is taking place on campus today. More Information
Fort Hays State University > About FHSU > Academic Divisions > College of Health and Life Sciences > Department of Nursing > Prospective Grad Student
Dear Prospective Graduate Student:
Thank you for your interest in Fort Hays State University's graduate program in nursing. Our nationally accredited program by the Committee on Collegiate Nursing Education (CCNE) prepares post-BSN nurses in the advanced specialty roles of nurse administrator, nurse educator or family nurse practitioner (FNP). Master of Science in Nursing (MSN) and Post-Master's curriculum options are available in FNP, Nursing Administration and Nursing Education tracks.
The Nursing Administration (NA) track courses include administrative management in health organizations, nursing administration in complex organizations, and experience working with expert nurse administrators. The Nursing Education (NE) track courses include curriculum planning and evaluation, teaching strategies in nursing, and experience working with expert teachers in various nursing education programs. The Department of Nursing offers the MSN degree and Post-Master's credential in Nursing Administration and Nursing Education via the Internet with supplemental audio conferencing. This means that you can take these on-line courses from the comfort of your own home, plus have opportunities for live interaction among faculty and other students. The administration and education experiences needed for the NA and NE tracks can be taken near your place of residence to aid in the convenience of balancing your education with family and job responsibilities.
The Family Nurse Practitioner track includes advanced didactic and practicum courses. Advantages to the FNP program includes its focus on acute and chronic health problems, drug therapy, family functioning, women's health and child health, as well as adult and aging health problems. As part of the Kansas Collaborative Primary Health Care Program, selected didactic courses are shared with other state universities to enhance learning opportunities and prepare Family Nurse Practitioner students to be licensed as Advanced Practice RNs (APRN). Through this collaborative approach, students at FHSU learn from experts in clinical areas from different parts of Kansas. FNP courses are scheduled to minimize travel time to campus while maximizing close contact with faculty as you learn advanced clinical skills and knowledge. Students typically come to campus one day a week or less. The practicum part of the program provides 750 hours of preceptorship experience to enhance students learning with the advanced practitioner role. FNP students are prepared to provide primary healthcare to the rural and underserved or urban populations. Many of the clinical hours for the FNP preceptorship courses can be completed at approved Kansas clinical facilities closer to your home.
FHSU Department of Nursing requires two (2) applications as well as other requirements before you can be admitted to the Masters of Science in Nursing Program. See the following URL for information: http://www.fhsu.edu/gradschl/. One application is the Graduate School form - http://www.fhsu.edu/gradschl/ - which is submitted to the Graduate School, and the second is the Nursing Department application form which goes directly to the Nursing Department. Both of these applications should be submitted before February 1 for the summer and fall semester and September 1 for the spring semester.

David Beckham in suite and tie on the cover of WSJ Magazine October 2011.
Sugar Stories resememble a comic strip but the images are photographs rather than drawings. In the website's own words:
Sugar Stories is fictional work that gives us insight into the private lives, habits, drama, and pleasures of a group of young men from Paris. What makes them so special? They are gay; some of them accept their sexual orientation, and live their lifestyle openly, while others stay on the down low. But all their lives are affected, even occasionally disrupted, by being gay.
This photo-story isnt a piece of gay activism; but the characters are yearning for simple and uneventful lives while their sexual orientation, and its relevance in society, does factor prominently into their journey. Being gay isnt a choice, but whether or not making peace with this facet of life can be one. The family and loved ones of gay people find themselves having to decide to choose acceptance as well, which often is more difficult than it is for the people who they love. The stories that youll see regularly in this space sometimes will be inspired by real events, and sometimes will be works of pure fiction. But we hope to show how todays young gay people are dealing with this conflict.

Los Angeles, CA, 4/14/2011 - Next week's episode of 90210 (Monday 4/18) promises plenty of "revealing" heat when Teddy (Trevor Donovan) is reunited with an old crush, Tripp Wallison (Alan Ritchson, Smallville). Luckily for viewers, Mr. Ritchson is no stranger to the sexy game, given his career as a men's underwear model. Judging by these photos courtesy of International Jock we (and Teddy) have a lot to look forward to. Jocks, briefs, swim trunks, Alan Ritchson has sported them all. The question remains: which will he be wearing (or removing?) on next week's episode?

Commonwealth Games 2014: Tongan boxer hopes to defy odds
Boxing has always been at the heart of Tonga's culture.
When British explorer Captain Cook visited the islands in the summer of 1777, members of his crew watched as local men and women displayed their fighting skills. A few boastful Brits even challenged the Tongans, but were soon defeated.
"It is in our culture - the image of toughness and invincibility," says Sione Manu Finau, the secretary general of the Tonga Boxing Association.
"It is the way we see a man should be. It is already in every Tongan to be a boxer."
Tonga, a country of just over 100,000 people, has celebrated boxing success in recent years with Uaine Fa (+91kg category) and Lomalito Moala (60kg) both winning bronze medals at the Commonwealth Games in Delhi three years ago.
Before that, the history books recount the achievements of Kitione Lave, nicknamed 'The Tongan Torpedo' - and a popular figure in New Zealand, where he lived for much of his life - and Olympic silver and Commonwealth bronze medallist Paea Wolfgramm.
But the problem for Tonga is the boxing greats rarely stay long in their home country, with many moving across to New Zealand to develop.

Adventurer Mark Beaumont reports on the Queen's Baton Relay: Glasgow 2014 as it makes its way to all 70 nations and territories of the Commonwealth. With regular reports online, on radio and on television, the next documentary is on Saturday, 21 December at 14:30 GMT on BBC News Channel
One man aiming to be the next big thing in Tongan boxing is Finau's son Osika, a 21-year-old welterweight who is hoping to make the team for the Commonwealth Games in Glasgow next year.
Osika Finau started to box at school at the age of 12, but he stopped fighting when his coach moved away from the area. He started again when he attended a match with his father two years ago.
"There was a guy there who was the champion for seven years in the welterweight division," says Osika.
"His trainer recognised me. He told me I could fight with this guy, but I said no as I hadn't trained and I know how important it is to train before you go in the ring.
"He insisted on telling me to go in. In Tonga, if you back out of a challenge that means you are a coward.
"I said yes. I went in, wore the gloves, and the guy beat the hell out of me."
Far from walking away from the sport for a second time, Osika used the experience in a positive way.
He challenged the champion the following week, and was beaten up again. The same happened the next week.
But he would not give up. On the fourth attempt, his determination finally paid off and victory was his.
Osika took a break from training last week to take part in the Queen's Baton Relay , the main event in the run-up to the Commonwealth Games.
The baton, which carries a message from the Queen and is a symbol of the shared values of the Commonwealth, is travelling around its 70 nations and territories.
The problem for the young boxer is the lack of facilities in his home country.
His father Sione highlights the poor standard of equipment, pointing out that boxers share one punching bag and some skipping ropes. He adds that the country's only permanent boxing ring - in the capital Nuku'alofa - is in serious need of repairing, at an estimated cost of T$16,000 (£5,200).
With no specialist gyms or equipment, it is unlikely Osika will make it to the higher echelons of the sport if he stays in Tonga.
He would like to move, but money is a barrier. He came up against more experienced opposition in New Zealand in an exhibition tournament in July and lost to local fighter Bowyn Morgan.
It was another wake-up call, and he became even more determined. He is convinced he has what it takes to make the Tonga Commonwealth team.
The Tongan National Olympic Committee, the body responsible for the country's participation in the Commonwealth Games, said the boxing competitors for Glasgow will be chosen following a national championship in January in Auckland, New Zealand.
Osika looks to foreign shores to improve, but that is unlikely to happen any time soon. If he is to qualify for Glasgow, he will have to do it the hard way - without the benefits of training in the larger Oceanic nations.
He says: "To develop, I have to fight and spar with people who are better than me. In Tonga, you hardly get anyone to spar or fight with. When I went to New Zealand in July, I saw the things that Tongans don't have.
"We are very poor. We don't have the money for everything.
"It doesn't matter what you have. What matters to me is what I know I can do. They have two arms, two legs and one heart. I have the same.
"The only thing I want is to become the first Tongan to win a gold medal in the Olympics and the Commonwealth Games.
"My first step is to win the national championship. I am really desperate for that position. I will do what it takes."
Sione, meanwhile, hopes for a day that Tonga can retain its talent on its own shores.
He added: "Realistically, we can't do anything about it. They (foreign-based Tongan boxers) should be better with all the equipment and support they have, but we believe a local boxer can be as good or better.
"I believe we can train and develop a boxer from Tonga and go all the way."
For now, that is a dream. But it is a dream that could be fulfilled next summer if Osika Finau gets his way.

My review
Original recipe yields 1 servings
Based on a 2,000 calorie dietSee full nutrition
Ready In
I do this all the time too. It is also very easy to make ANYWHERE... one pkg mustard... on pkg mayo. Bingo! a great dip ready to go.
This is my favorite combo for dipping. The sweetness of the ketchup with the bite of the mustard really make the food POP with flavor.
Wasn't sure how I would like this but wanted to try it anyway. It was surprisingly good...didn't even need ketchup! Very good!
This is really good, but I also add a teaspoon of creamy horseradish and if you aren't doing low carb a little sugar. Gives it a little kick!
Add some Splenda or equal and it makes a nice honey mustard. Great for parm crusted fried chicken fingers.

I will only comment on the ones I am familiar with:If anyone is intested here are the 10 bourbons that are going to be featured in the "Top Shelf" article. Thanks to all for adding your input. I would like to say I was not the only person picking these, so if you don't like the list don't kill me for it!! Some were chosen almost just based on availability. I added a few notes to give some reasoning. Curious to hear any thoughts or opinions on the 10 chosen.
1) Baker's (small batch, readily available and young)
2) Blanton's Original (the ORIGNAL single barrel)
3) Booker's (small batch, but vastly different from Baker's)
4) Hirsch 16 (a piece of history)
5) Pappy 20 (one of the best and my favorite)
6) Elmer T Lee (unbeatable for the price)
7) Stagg (the hazmat label and its quality)
8) Wild Turkey Tribute (arguably best in the WT class)
9) Eagle Rare 17 (another great one)
10) Distillers Masterpiece Port finish (why this one? we needed a "WOW" type bourbon for the article in which readers would get a bit mystified by this selection, plus it has a very elegant and photogenic look)
1) Baker's - I didn't care much for this one. To me, it has a dry, astringent quality that I just don't enjoy.
2) Blanton's - I love it. Smooth, elegant, laid back. Every time I taste it, different flavors waft in and out.
3) Booker's - A very interesting drink, but too expensive for what you get.
5) Pappy 20 - Supremely elegant, deep flavors and aromas. Wonderful.
6) Elmer T. Lee - I don't care what it costs, this is easily in my top five bourbons. Rich aromas and flavors (tobacco, dark fruit, oranges, leather). And wonderfully sweet tasting . I currently look forward to each drink of it more than any other bourbon I know.

An absolutely perfect salad! As an arranged salad, it makes for a beautiful presentation - a lovely combination of colors and textures. The second time I made it, I cubed thick salmon fillets, and sautéed them in olive oil. This made the salad easier to serve. I've also tried grilling the potatoes and beans, which added another layer of flavor.flag if inappropriate
Made a wonderful lunch. I wasn't able to get to the store so I used dried tarragon. We caught the salmon ourselves just days ago and used our farm fresh eggs so the dressing wasn't as important. Delish!flag if inappropriate
In a word: YUM!flag if inappropriate
Probably one of the best main course salads i have ever made, and i used boring chicken instead of salmon because its what i had around bet its even better with salmon! and i love the dressing not too tart and fine with dried tarragon, tho i am sure fresh is even better.flag if inappropriate
I make this dish with New Zealand moimoi potatoes and a lemon mayonaise and it comes out awsome, try poaching the salmon in white wine and garlicflag if inappropriate
This is a good summer dinner, though I agree that the dressing needs work. Next time I will cut the Dijon mustard by 50%, as its flavor dominated the salad. I agree that fresh tarragon makes the dressing more interesting. I used leftover teriyaki salmon, which actually worked with the French flavors.flag if inappropriate
Although this salad was quite attractive, my Hubby & I did not care for it...We thought the vinaigrette was too tart, even after adding 1/2 teaspoon of honey...flag if inappropriate
This was pretty fabulous. I used leftover grilled salmon and used fresh tarragon in the dressing.flag if inappropriate
A delicious salad that was a great use for our leftover grilled Salmon. Makes me hungry just thinking about it.flag if inappropriate
Used leftover salmon from the grill -- perfect for the 'day 2' of a large piece of salmon. I added a little sugar to the dressing because it tasted too tart to me, but it could have just been that I had really large lemons! My non salad-eater husband LOVED this!flag if inappropriate

After a great deal of begging from Fleetwood Mac fans, "American Horror Story: Coven" co-creator Ryan Murphy successfully convinced Stevie Nicks to join the show.
Though the casting announcement came as something as a surprise, there's nothing better than photographic evidence.
Murphy showed off the first photo of Nicks on the set of "Coven" this week, wearing flowy black clothing and boots that manage to perfectly fit both the singer's trademark style and the show's dark aesthetic.
While the showrunner confirmed that Nicks will appear as herself in the show, the real question is what she will sing.
That's right, Murphy suggested that the legendary singer will duet with Lily Rabe's Misty Day, whose character has a full-on obsession with "The White Witch."
According to "Entertainment Weekly," Jessica Lange's character will bring "Stevie Nicks in as a gift to Misty to prove to her that if she exhibits more power she'll get that and more."
At the time, Murphy told "EW" that the writers will still figuring out which song the duo will sing together.
"American Horror Story" airs Wednesday nights at 10pm on FX. What do you think Stevie should sing on the show?

Comments Thread For: Opportunities Abound, But Guzman's Pond Still Shrinking
By Jake Donovan - Joan Guzman stares at the computer screen, which is open to a page showing the most recent 140 lb. ratings for the World Boxing Association (WBA). All the Dominican boxer is shake his head in disbelief.
The frustration isnt over the rankings (which often prompts industry-wide head-shaking), as Guzman is sitting pretty. He is currently the highest rated fighter eligible to take part in a potential vacant title fight, but not even the allure of facing an unbeaten 36-year old for a shiny alphabet trinket is tempting enough to his divisional peers.
First Marcos Maidana took off, Guzman states, noting the Argentines defection from the 140 lb. ranks to pursue a career at welterweight. Then Pablo Cano is offered the fight and he takes off.
Several high-profile opponents and several low-profile, though at least known in hardcore boxing cirtcles have passed on the opportunity to face Guzman, even with the dangling carrot of a future title shot hanging overhead.
Jessie Vargas took off. Amir Khans dad said No. Danny Garcias dad said, No. All I need is just one to say yes and Ill be happy, Guzman insists.
There is one fighter at the moment willing to give him the day. Its not the most ideal opponent, but nevertheless a potential opponent. [Click Here To Read More]

Guzman has no one to blame but himself. He was very unprofessional with his weight issues.
Now he has to pay the price and just take whatever is available.

Guzman never did. He was on the cusp of getting more known when he started f*cking up.

This writer compares Guzman to Rios and suggests that Guzman is somehow being treated more harshly, but their situations aren't exactly comparable if you ask me. Rios failed to make weight by half a pound and a couple of pounds against Murray and Abril, attempted to drain himself in order to make weight, and fought on despite being weakened. (BIG PROPS to Murray and Abril for going through with those fights against a heavier opponent rather than pulling out, which they had every right to do).
However, in the case of Guzman, he came in overweight against Campbell and PULLED OUT of that fight despite Campbell's willingness to face him (Campbell was broke and lost out on the paycheck). He came in NINE pounds over the limit against Funeka in their rematch and CHEATED in his fight against Davis (while still coming in overweight on top of it). Despite all that, he's back in line for a title shot just three fights after his suspension (while facing fringe opposition). The writer concludes by stating that the industry is very unforgiving, but it seems pretty damn forgiving if you ask me, ha ha. Excuse me for not shedding a tear over Guzman's lack of professionalism.
I'm with Guamar on this. If anything, I'm actually surprised Guzman was able to rebound his career this fast considering the 'fuck ups. Maybe I'm speaking too soon but I think he finally has his weight problems in check.

I have had the WD for about a year (and enjoy it alot). My father-in-law just bought one as well. He asked me for some of my movies...so I figured I would just copy them to an external hard drive (LaCie 500gb) and bring that over to copy onto his WD. Once connected my WD does sync with the LaCie...I am able to copy the movies onto the LaCie...however once I connect the LaCie to my PC they are no longer there.
Am I doing this wrong? Is there another way to do this?
The Hub Syncs *FROM* the USB *TO* the Internal, not the other way around.

This morning I saw this post from Marcus Ramberg about MojoX::Routes::AsGraph. I liked the idea. But as I Catalyst instead of Mojo, I thought I could give a try and do the same thing for Catalyst dispatcher, and I've coded CatalystX::Dispatcher::AsGraph. For the moment only private actions are graphed.
You use it like this:
perl bin/catalyst_graph_dispatcher.pl --appname Arkham --output routes.png
You can create a simple script to output as text if you prefer:
#!/usr/bin/perl -w
use strict;
use CatalystX::Dispatcher::AsGraph;
my $graph = CatalystX::Dispatcher::AsGraph->new_with_options();
print $graph->graph->as_txt;
The code is on my git server for the moment.
For thoses who are interested by visualization, I'll publish soon some (at least I think) really nice visualisations about CPAN, Perl, and his community, that we have created at $work.

Emotions drive China's shoppers
17 December 2013
SHANGHAI: Emotions are an important driver of brand loyalty for Chinese consumers, according to new research which argues that an understanding of their consumption patterns must move beyond geography, demographics and social groups.
GroupM China, WPP's media investment management arm, carried out a comprehensive study of consumer behaviour in Tier 1 to 4 cities, involving 19,400 respondents and 22 product categories, and found that
emotional factors came first as a reason to buy
for more than half of the categories considered.
"This research has forced us to re-evaluate our assumptions regarding consumer behaviour in different market tiers," said Mark Patterson, CEO, GroupM Asia Pacific and Chairman, China.
He noted that the key findings on emotions as a purchase influence varied across product categories, product usage, demographics, geography and tiers. "Marketers must develop a much more nuanced understanding of consumer attitudes and behaviours by market clusters and adapt their strategies accordingly to truly engage consumers effectively," he said.
Among the specific findings of the research were that emotions affected consumers differently depending on market maturity. Thus, respondents in Tier 1 and Tier 4 cities were most emotionally bonded with skincare brands, especially those with feel-good factors.
Consumers in Tier 2 and 3 cities, however, were more focused on less emotive issues such as brand reputation and safety, which could work to the advantage of international brands.
Respondents in the upper tiers were also generally found to be more emotional than their counterparts in the purchase of luxury products. Consumers in Tier 1 and 2 were most influenced by their emotional bonding with brands, with consumers in Tier 2 cities also buying brands that catered to their sense of self, status and wealth.
Consumers in Tier 3, however, were heavily skewed towards brands that could match their sense of identity, social and economic status in their luxury purchase. Tier 4 consumers, while concerned with the physical benefits of the purchase, also responded well emotionally towards lesser known luxury brands.
Women were most influenced by emotional factors when considering a car purchase. Six of the top ten influencers were emotional for them, compared to just one for men. "Attractive advertising" was the common factor.
Patterson observed that brands had up until now tended to focus on getting distribution but in future "the battle will be about which brands the consumers perceive to hold the most value".
In this context, he said "it is essential for brands to understand the importance of building the emotional connection with their consumers".
