You start with a piece of cardstock measuring 8.5 x 10.5.
I used the Scor-Pal to make my score marks, but you can use whatever you method is. You will score on the long side at 5 and 5.5 inches.
Then score on the short side at 2 and 2 1/8 inches.On the inside of the portfolio, place some strong adhesive on the edges of each side as well as in the center panel as pictured. I used Terrific Tape that I purchased at the Scor-Pal website in 1/4" width. Do not peel the backing off yet.I used my ATG and ran adhesive along the front of the cardstock where I wanted to place my ribbon; then cut your ribbon in the length you wish and burnish on the adhesive.Then decorate the front as you wish. I did not put an image on the front of this one yet as it does not have a recipient. I will do that once I know who I am sending it to. In any case, I matted the dp on the front and used just dp for the back.
Once the portfolio is decorated to your liking, flip it over and remove the adhesive backing and secure.
You can place 4 note cards and 4 invitation style envies in either pocket. It is a bit snug, but it is kept in place.
Voila! You are done!! Rather simple, don't you think?! I can hardly wait to get several of these sets made up to have for those last minute gifts.
Cody received two awards at the school's ceremony yesterday. He, as well as us, were completely thrilled. He ended up reading 135 books and went on two trips rewarding those who reached their goals. I'll have to share a pic or two in the coming days.
We have a game tonight and I hope it isn't too hot. It has been almost unbearably humid the last few days.

I'd like to imagine JFK and Stalin care about the Oxford comma in this instance, even if we never do anymore. And, in an effort to make this a fashion/beauty based post, instead of just "a fun shout out to people who love grammar and think commas are sexy" – which stripper outfit is better, JFK's or Stalin's? The answer is Stalin's, obviously, although I think it's fair to say one would feel more comfortable wearing JFK's. So. There are going to be two polls on this now, one on whether you are for or against the Oxford comma one on whether Stalin or JFK has the better outfit. Here are the polls. More

I am working on a personal project in Python where I need some form of persistent data. The data would fit in 2-3 tables of 10-20 columns and 100-200 records each. I have a basic understanding of SQL, so a database seems to make some sense.
I am new to Python, so I am not familiar with the options for database interface from Python. I have also heard about pickling and am not sure if that would be a better solution for my project size. Can anyone recommend a good solution?

Pledge | Limit courts' jurisdiction, U.S. congressman urges
Here's a creative response to the widely ridiculed court ruling declaring the Pledge of Allegiance unconstitutional: U.S. Rep. Todd Akin (R-Mo.) introduced a bill last week to strip courts below the Supreme Court of their jurisdiction over the Pledge's recital.
Rep. Akin told WORLD he knows the approach is unorthodox, relying on Article III of the Constitution, which gives Congress the power to shape the lower federal courts: "Liberals would like to try and say the Pledge decision is about neutrality, but either our rights come from God, or our rights come from politicians-and can be played with."

DAVIDSON – Huntersville resident Gary Wheeler is known for making positive and inspirational films for families. When the opportunity arose to direct his latest film close to home, he was thrilled.
He selected Davidson for its great location and because it has the look and feel of a scenic town with a sense of community necessary for the story.
It gave him the opportunity to showcase the community in a positive light to a broad television audience.
The film "Teachers," scripted by Rhonda Baracka, centers on a group of high school students, parents and teachers who come together to inspire a divided community to rally and save a once-popular high school that is scheduled to close.
Wheeler selected Lake Norman Christian School, formerly the Davidson IB School and Davidson Elementary School, on South Street close to downtown Davidson, as the backdrop of the film.
"This film is a perfect combination of stars that have been in many popular shows and films," Wheeler said.
Loretta Devine will play a guidance counselor, Salli Richardson-Whitfield, the principal and Esai Morales, a parent. They will be filming with many extras from the area and an all-local crew.
"This is the first filming experience for many of the extras," Wheeler said. "What a wonderful way to learn about this industry in their own home region. It has been a rewarding experience for me working with all of them."
"Teachers" is in its second week of filming and has one more week left in Davidson. The film is being produced by Dave Eubanks and Keith Neal with Eric Tomosunas of Swirl Films.
It is scheduled to be shown as a celebration for the local talent at Our Town Cinemas this fall and will be broadcast on the UP network.
Wheeler is a multi-award winning international filmmaker who has produced a number of motion picture and television productions around the world.
He is the founder and president of the North Carolina-based Level Path Productions.
Wheeler's past films include the Emmy-nominated television feature "The Heart of Christmas," based on a song by Grammy Award-nominated artist Matthew West.

People with Celiac Disease are Three Times More Likely to Develop Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma (NHL)

In 1994 I was diagnosed with celiac disease, which led me to create Celiac.com in 1995. I created this site for a single purpose: To help as many people as possible with celiac disease get diagnosed so they can begin to live happy, healthy gluten-free lives. Celiac.com was the first site on the Internet dedicated solely to celiac disease. In 1998 I founded The Gluten-Free Mall, Your Special Diet Superstore!, and I am the co-author of the book Cereal Killers, and founder and publisher of Journal of Gluten Sensitivity.View all articles by Scott Adams
Celiac.com 04/12/2002 - According to a report published in the March 20th issue of the Journal of the American Medical Association, people with celiac disease are three times more likely to develop non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) than the normal population. Dr. Carlo Catassi and colleagues from the University of Maryland in Baltimore compared the prevalence of celiac disease in 653 NHL patients with more than 5,000 healthy control subjects to determine the NHL-celiac disease occurrence rate. The results indicate that 1% of NHL patients also have celiac disease, in comparison with 0.42% of the healthy controls. Adjustments were made for age and sex, and the final results indicate that the odds ratios for a patient with celiac disease of developing NHL are: 3.1 for all types of NHL, 16.9 for gut NHL, and 19.2 for T-cell NHL. The overall risk, however, for someone with celiac disease developing NHL is only 0.63%.
The researchers do not feel that their findings support mass screening for celiac disease, but they do feel that selected NHL patients should be screened for celiac disease. We would also like to add that these findings support the screening of people with celiac disease for NHL, which was not directly addressed by the report.
As always, Celiac.com welcomes your comments (see below).

Revolutionizing Feminism offers the first feminist analysis of the human rights crisis in the Philippines during the Arroyo presidency (20012010) and the declaration of the country as the 'second front' in the US-led 'war on terror'. During this period over 1,000 activists, including peasants, journalists and lawyers, were murdered.*BR**BR*Lacsamana situates Filipino women within the international division of labour, showing the connection between the 'super-exploitation' of their labour power at home and their migration abroad as domestic workers, nurses, nannies, entertainers, and 'mail-order brides'.*BR**BR*In contrast to the cultural turn in feminist theorising that has retreated from the concepts of class and class exploitation, Revolutionizing Feminism seeks to reorient feminist scholarship in order to better understand the material realties of those living in an increasingly unstable and impoverished global south.

UAE: Free Blogger Activist

Authorities in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) should immediately stop any current deportation proceedings against a UAE blogger and activist, and free him from immigration-related detention, Human Rights Watch said today. The current deportation proceedings appear aimed at sending him to the Comoros Islands, a country he has never been to, since he was pressured by UAE authorities into applying for citizenship there. No reason has been given to him for his detention and likely deportation, nor any attempt made to consider the effect on his family life.
Authorities detained Ahmed Abd al-Khaleq on May 22, 2012, after summoning him to the immigration department of the Interior Ministry in the Ajman emirate, local activists told Human Rights Watch. Abd al-Khaleq, 35, is well known for his activist and blogging campaigns for the rights of stateless residents known as Bidun ("without," referring to their statelessness).
"Instead of providing a remedy for the plight of Ahmed Abd al-Khaleq and thousands of other stateless residents, UAE authorities pressured him to acquire foreign naturalization in order to ship him away," said Sarah Leah Whitson, Middle East director at Human Rights Watch. "UAE authorities should immediately halt any deportation proceedings against him and release him unconditionally."
Abd al-Khaleq, himself a stateless Bidun-born and lifelong resident of the UAE, is one of a group of activists known as the "UAE 5" who had been jailed from April to November 2011 for peacefully advocating democratic reforms. His latest arrest came the day after he received notification that his application for Comoros citizenship had been approved. Local activists said he has no connection to the Comoros and has never visited the islands, but that he had applied for Comoros citizenship under pressure from UAE authorities, who told him that obtaining a nationality was a necessary step in regularizing his residency status in the UAE. Abd al-Khaleq supports his parents and seven sisters, all of whom were born in the UAE and have never left the country.
On May 24, the local activists said, Abd al-Khaleq phoned family members from al-Wathba prison in Abu Dhabi and informed them that Interior Ministry authorities were transferring him to al-Sadr prison, from which they would soon deport him to the Comoros Islands. UAE authorities have provided no information on his whereabouts or the reason for his arrest and possible deportation.
Abd al-Khaleq's blog, Emaraty Bedoon, hosts videos and statements highlighting the plight of stateless residents. Due to their stateless status, the Bidun, who according to Refugees International number between 10,000 and 100,000 in the UAE, face severe obstacles in many areas such as access to healthcare and education, and many live in poverty. Many of the Bidun population in the UAE trace their origins to nomadic tribes that previously moved freely around the gulf region or later immigrants living in the UAE who failed to register for nationality when the country was formed in 1971.
Immigration department officials had contacted Abd al-Khaleq and members of his family in early 2012 and pressured them to acquire Comoros nationality as a first step, they said, to stabilizing their residency situation in the UAE. Over the past two years, other Bidun have told Human Rights Watch of similar pressure from UAE authorities to apply for Comoros citizenship. The family received notice on May 21 that their application for Comoros citizenship had been approved, local activists said.
The Paris-based daily Le Monde and the Qatar-based Al Jazeera network reported in 2009 that the UAE government paid US$200 million to the government of the Comoros, at that time equal to 40 percent of the islands' GDP, to offer citizenship to stateless residents in the UAE. According to Al Jazeera, Comoros officials speculated that those who received it might "never step foot in the islands." UAE officials have not confirmed the existence of a bilateral arrangement.
UAE activists told Human Rights Watch that Interior Ministry officials have stepped up pressure on stateless residents in recent months to apply for Comoros citizenship, telling them that their window to apply would soon close, which would jeopardize their chances of establishing legal residency in the UAE. Human Rights Watch has seen a recent photo of a note on the front door of the Comoros embassy in Abu Dhabi stating that the embassy will stop receiving applications for citizenship on June 1.
The activists known as the "UAE 5" were detained in April 2011, after they allegedly posted statements on UAE Hewar, an internet forum that criticized UAE government policy and leaders.
UAE authorities charged them in early June under articles 176 and 8 of the UAE Penal Code, which criminalize "public insults" of the country's top officials. They were detained throughout a seven-month pretrial and trial process. The Federal Supreme Court convicted them on November 27 and sentenced them to between two and three years in prison. Shortly afterward, Shaikh Khalifa bin Zayed Al Nahyan, the UAE president, commuted the sentences of all five and they were released. Abd al-Khaleq is the only stateless member of the UAE 5.
Abd al-Khaleq's latest detention follows a series of arrests of dissidents in the UAE. Over the past nine weeks, authorities detained without charge 12 members of the Reform and Social Guidance Association (al-Islah), a non-violent political association advocating greater adherence to Islamic precepts. One of the lawyers for the detained men told Human Rights Watch that the authorities said they arrested six of the men for refusing to sign a pledge to seek another nationality after the government claimed to have revoked their citizenship.
Freedom of speech is guaranteed under article 30 of the UAE's constitution and under international human rights law. Article 19 of the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights (ICCPR) holds that "everyone shall have the right to freedom of expression ... to seek, receive and impart information and ideas of all kinds." While the UAE is not a party to the ICCPR, it constitutes an authoritative source and guideline reflecting international best practice. Accepted international standards only allow content-based restrictions in extremely narrow circumstances, such as cases of slander or libel against private individuals or speech that threatens imminent violence.
Article 32 of the Arab Charter on Human Rights, which the UAE has ratified, guarantees the right to freedom of opinion and expression, and to impart news to others by any means. The only restrictions allowed on the practice of this right are those imposed for "respect for the rights of others, their reputation, or the protection of national security, public order, public health, or public morals." Article 13(2) of the charter also requires that judicial hearings be "public other than [except] in exceptional cases where the interests of justice so require in a democratic society which respects freedom and human rights."
The United Nations Declaration on Human Rights Defenders provides that countries should "take all necessary measures to ensure the protection of everyone against any violence, threats, retaliation, adverse discrimination, pressure or any other arbitrary action" as a result of their participation in human rights activity.
International law protects the right of everyone to family life. Article 33 of the Arab Charter for Human Rights provides that "The State and society shall ensure the protection of the family, the strengthening of family ties, [and] the protection of its members…" The UN Human Rights Committee has set out in its General Comment 19 that, in addition to the obligation on states to protect the family, "the right to found a family implies ... the possibility to ... live together.... Similarly, the possibility to live together implies the adoption of appropriate measures ... to ensure the unity or reunification of families, particularly when their members are separated for political, economic or similar reasons." Therefore deporting someone away from their family, when this is to a country he or she has never visited, and where it would not be reasonable for his family to move to, would violate the right to a family life.
"UAE authorities are now using deportations and the revocation of citizenship status as a way to silence dissent in the UAE," Whitson said. "They should end this shameful practice and respect the rights of Emiratis to freedom of association and expression."

Nearly a century ago, Rabindranath Tagore wrote that in this task of breaking the barrier and facing the world Japan has come out the first in the East. She has infused hope in the heart of all Asia.
Once again, Japan is infusing hope in terms of economic growth in Asia. Through a dose of Abenomics, Japan has successfully shrugged off its sluggishness and is showing signs of recovery. Business sentiments have improved tremendously and the ripples of this recovery are being felt in the far corners of the globe.
India, on the other hand, is also witnessing a resurgence of sorts. The Indian economy today is widely seen to be turning the corner and growth is expected to be bottoming out. Both industrial growth and business confidence are on an upswing.
This is an ideal time for India and Japan to give a greater push to their economic engagement and chart out a course for future action and strive to build a strong strategic and global partnership.
India-Japan bilateral relations are based on long-term political, economic and strategic interests, aspirations and concerns and underpinned by a common commitment to democracy, open society, human rights, rule of law and free market economy. Japan and India are natural partners as the largest and most developed democracies of Asia, with a mutual stake in each others progress and prosperity.
Japan has always been perceived as a strong and steady partner in Indias progress. In the 1980s, it was the Maruti 800 that transformed Indias automobile industry. Two decades later, with Japans support, Delhi changed the way it commuted with the advent of the Delhi Metro.
Now, Japan and India have embarked on their most ambitious multidimensional project together with the construction of the Dedicated Rail Freight Corridor and the Delhi Mumbai Industrial Corridor, a $90-billion project for which Japan has already committed over $4 billion in credit.
As a result, Japan has now emerged as the fourth-largest investor in India with an investment of over $16 billion. Much of this investment is in the manufacturing sector. In CIIs interactions with Japanese companies, we have found that the interest in India has not waned. An increasing number of Japanese companies have shown interest in investing in India, particularly in the manufacturing sector.
Strategically, Japan occupies a prime position in Indias Look East policy. Both nations aim to build a strong strategic and global partnership that can be mutually beneficial and also

ST. LOUIS - This week's State Farm Missouri Valley Conference Cross Country Athletes of the Week are Ryan Witters of Evansville and Southern Illinois' Emily Toennies.
Competing in her first race of the 2010 season, Toennies was in mid-season form with a second-place finish at the EIU Panther Open with a time of 18:05.11 in the 6K race. The senior from New Baden, Ill., trailed only North Dakota's Lindsay Anderson - a former standout at Iowa - while defeating fellow teammate Megan Hoelscher, all-OVC honoree Olivia Klaus (EIU), and all-Great West second team member Katherine Enabnit (UND).

The MVC also saw a combined seven teams ranked in the regional polls on both the men's and women's sides. On the men's side, Southern Illinois, Illinois State, and Drake hold the 10th, 12th, and 13th spots, respectively, in the Midwest Region, while Indiana State sits in sixth in the Great Lakes.
Meanwhile, three women's squads - Wichita State, Illinois State, and Missouri State - each maintain a spot in the Midwest Region poll.

How do I know if my or my loved one's rights were violated during a crash?
Motorcyclists have the same rights as anyone else on the road. But when a careless driver breaks the law and runs a red light, fails to stop at a stop sign, or speeds, it ignores the rights of others and can lead to an accident. Because of the nature of the vehicle, motorcyclists face additional risks and often sustain serious injuriesor wrongful death. This usually means their injuries are more severe, and they often require highly specialized care such as surgery, rehabilitation, or reconstructive surgery. Our Sarasota motorcycle accident lawyers will listen to the details of your accident and let you know if your rights have been violated. Please contact us today to hear more about your rights.
If I am thinking of filing a lawsuit against a careless driver, what is the first step?
Your family is dealing with a serious injury, and there often is hardly enough time to focus on anything but taking care of them. In a single meeting with our experienced motorcycle accident team, we will do our best to answer all your questions. As more questions arise, we are only a phone call away. If you are ready to tell your story, pleaseschedule an accident consultation with the Luhrsen Law Group as soon as possible.
What should I do about insurance companies offering me money or trying to get information about the accident?
We recommend AGAINST talking with the insurance companies or signing any documents that they send you. You may be limiting your rights to compensation. In our experience, insurance companies seldom offer you a fitting settlement. Consider, for example, that assigning an appropriate dollar value to your accident is difficult early on because the full nature of your injuries and your recovery from them usually takes some time. The amount of recovery time varies from individual to individual; settling before you have fully recovered usually precludes further claims from being made. Also, keep in mind that the insurance adjuster's job is to save the company money which means that no matter how friendly or likeable the adjuster may seem, it is unlikely that your best interests are being met. Yourmotorcycle accident lawyer can handle all of the insurance communication and carefully evaluate any offers to ensure you do not settle for less than you deserve.
What are my options if I lost a loved one in a motorcycle accident?
During your no-cost consultation with our legal professionals, we will inform you of the options available to you after a motorcycle accident. You will have the opportunity to ask questions and discuss the pros and cons of each scenario. After hearing the details of your accident and fully understanding your family's needs, we will recommend the option we feel will help your family the most.
You do not have to face this traumatic event alone. Our motorcycle accident lawyers and support team are here for you, ready to help your family deal with the difficult consequences of an unexpected injury. We would like you to tell us what happened in a personal, no-cost consultation with our personal injury lawyers. Please contact us today to set up your visit. We can come to your home or hospital room and give you the answers you need.

Kerri's book Pick of the Week is 'Mad River' by John Sandford.
From NPR:
Several years ago, John Sandford switched gears and introduced a new character -- Virgil Flowers. Flowers is a rural Minnesota cop who works for Lucas Davenport, but in some ways picks up where Davenport leaves off.
Sandford says one of the reasons he created Flowers was because Davenport got married and had kids. "Most people like a little sex in their novels," he tells Weekend Edition host Linda Wertheimer. "And the problem with Davenport was that he could no longer chase women because that would make him a bad guy, and your hero can't be a bad guy in that way."

Dozens of students gather each week for these participatory Shabbat experiences. Students gather for Shabbat lunch as well at noon on Saturdays at the Interfaith Center. Periodically there have been services on Shabbat day and we are happy for students to continue to organize more of these.
How many students are active in Hillel?
UMBC Hillel professionals, student interns, and student leaders are in personal contact with about three hundred Jewish students on campus each year.
Is there a daily minyan (prayer group)?
Recently there has been an Orthodox-style minyan that has met for mincha (afternoon services) during standard time. We are happy to host these services based on need. For more information about mincha minyan, email email@example.com.
Where is Hillel located?
Everywhere! UMBC Hillel tries not to see itself as an entity with a concrete time and space. As the Foundation for Jewish Campus Life, Hillel is located all over the UMBC campus through one-on-one conversations, programs, and all sorts of meaningful Jewish experiences.
Okay, but where are your offices located?
Our offices are located at the Interfaith Center (IFC). The IFC is located between Susquehanna and Chesapeake residence halls and is a two-minute walk from The Commons, the library and the dining hall.
The Interfaith Center? But I see myself as more culturally Jewish than religiously Jewish? Is there a place for me at Hillel?
Yes, and you are not alone. Studies show that many college students think of their Judaism as a culture and not as a religion. Avram Infeld, the former director of International Hillel, loves to remind students that "Judaism is not a religion,"; it is a family, a community, and entire culture. It was only after Emancipation in Europe that some Jews started thinking of Judaism as a "religion." Rabbi Moredecai M. Kaplan called Judaism an "evolving religious civilization," meaning that Judaism consists of people with traditions, art, music, language, land, bound together by a shared history, a shared destiny and a common quest for meaning.
And if I do think of Judaism as a religion?
Yes, you are most welcome too!
Are there Judaic Studies classes at UMBC?
There sure are! You can even minor in Judaic Studies. Click here for details.

UK Family Law
Ask an UK Family Law Question, Get an Answer ASAP!
He has been providing child support. Mutually agreed at CSA rate. I suppose the root of my question relates to whether I can seek assistance with the level of debt I left the marriage with. I left the family home as I would not have been able to manage it financially on my own and I signed the house over to him. Possibly not the best thing to do but i wasn't thinking clearly at the time. I am currently working and providing a home for myself and my son but the debt i have which was incurred during the marriage is becoming unmanageable. Could I apply for him to take on some or all of the debt or is it too late?
Hi, the loan was taken out in my name to consolidate loans/credit cards three years before the marriage broke down. The only marital assets would be the house, two cars, pension and any savings he has (I have none at this time). Sorry it is a little vague. He kept much of his financial information to himself so I am not entirely sure what he has.
I am going to opt out of this for another expert to consider.Please do not reply or it comes back into my inbox. Another expert will pick itup at some stage. It is now open to all experts.

Korolev, Alexandre (2007) The Norton-Type Lipschitz-Indeterministic Systems and Elastic Phenomena: Indeterminism as an Artefact of Infinite Idealizations. In: [2008] Philosophy of Science Assoc. 21st Biennial Mtg (Pittsburgh, PA) > PSA 2008 Contributed Papers.

Download (341Kb)
The singularity arising from the violation of the Lipschitz condition in the simple Newtonian system proposed recently by Norton (2003) is so fragile as to be completely and irreparably destroyed by slightly relaxing certain (infinite) idealizations pertaining to elastic phenomena in this model. I demonstrate that this is also true for several other Lipschitz-indeterministic systems, which, unlike Norton's example, have no surface curvature singularities. As a result, indeterminism in these systems should rather be viewed as an artefact of certain infinite idealizations essential for these models, depriving them of much of their intended metaphysical import.

Steep water rates increases, 70-80 percent for plant upgrades?
"You'll have a very good quality water" is the answer.
This has been the same song Wheeling has been singing for many years every time it comes to increases.
At one time they told us we had good quality water in the Wil Turani years, then a year or so ago they told us how bad the water we were drinking was.
The average bill increases from $19.44 to $33.05 at a 70 percent rate and $34.99 at 80 percent.
The water rates increasing falls right in line with sewer increases.
How many upgrades are necessary to finally decide to build an entire new plant somewhere down the line. All good citizens of Wheeling will be effected.
When is enough really enough?

Leading retailers and major supermarkets demand the very highest standards from their food and drink suppliers. Now the awarding of the UK's first ISO 21469 certification to a lubricants producer means users of ROCOL's FOODLUBE® products can tick important boxes for their auditors on hygiene and food safety.
ISO 21469 is a globally-recognised certification that provides credible, independent assurance that ROCOL products are formulated, manufactured and supplied hygienically and safely. This is a vital step for manufacturers who need to conform with the audit requirements of major supermarkets, the European Food Safety Inspection Service and the British Retail Consortium. The certification also builds on the existing NSF H1 registration of ROCOL FOODLUBE products (safe for incidental contact with food).
NSF H1 specifies the hygiene requirements for formulation, use and handling of products which may incidentally come into contact with food products during manufacture. But ISO 21469 goes even further, and certification to this standard means that FOODLUBE products are manufactured to stringent recipe and hygiene standards, using food manufacturing practices, dedicated equipment and strict handling procedures. Each product is not only hygiene assured, but has also been independently verified by an NSF inspector and tested in their laboratories.
Brendan Kendrick, the UK Sales Director of ROCOL, describes the ISO 21469 certification as šthe perfect complement' to NSF H1.
"It demonstrates that all FOODLUBE products are formulated, manufactured and designed to be stored and used within an approved hygiene strategy, which has accounted for all chemical, physical and biological hazards. Securing ISO 21469 formalises our already excellent processes, and recognises the application and usage expertise we provide to our customers through services like our ROCOLcare® lubrication management programme."
As part of its ISO 21469 certification, ROCOL provides risk assessments in the use of lubricants, conducts factory audits, helps customers develop and police effective quality assurance procedures, and monitors product composition through ongoing sampling and retesting. Coinciding with the awarding of the company's ISO 21469 certificate, ROCOL has also added another product to its FOODLUBE range.
PUROL™ Grease 2 is a food processing release agent which is NSF-3H registered, meaning it is suitable for direct contact with food, and contains no animal-derived materials, nut oils or genetically modified ingredients. The new product - which is designed to reduce equipment downtime and increase relubrication intervals - has excellent temperature resistance (-10°C to +110°C) and can easily be applied precisely where required, using a grease gun or manual application.
The FOODLUBE® range has long been the lubrication solution of choice in the food industry. Now ROCOL's ISO 21469 certification, and the company's continuing development of new food-safe products such as PUROL™ Grease 2, means manufacturers can be confident that their audits will run just as smoothly as their equipment.

The Silent Season of a Hero: The Sports Writing of Gay Talese (2010)
by Gay Talese
No current Talk conversations about this book.
Although I check the sports pages of my local paper for baseball scores, I don't read much sports-writing that is not about baseball. The title piece is a profile of Joe DiMaggio fifteen years after his retirement, so technically it is about baseball, but most of these pieces, long or short, are about sports I have little or no interest in. They are fascinating reading, however, because Talese never wrote for sports aficionados. All of these pieces tell stories about people, people as obscure as a boxing timekeeper and as famous as DiMaggio, Joe Louis and Muhammad Ali. Each person is fascinating and each piece is compelling.
References to this work on external resources.
Wikipedia in English
Amazon.com Product Description (ISBN 0802777538, Paperback)
One of America's most acclaimed writers and journalists, Gay Talese has been fascinated by sports throughout his life. At age fifteen he became a sports reporter for his Ocean City High School newspaper; four years later, as sports editor of the University of Alabama's Crimson-White, he began to employ devices more common in fiction, such as establishing a "scene" with minute details—a technique that would later make him famous.
Later, as a sports reporter for the New York Times, Talese was drawn to individuals at poignant and vulnerable moments rather than to the spectacle of sports. Boxing held special appeal, and his Esquire pieces on Joe Louis and Floyd Patterson in decline won praise, as would his later essay "Ali in Havana," chronicling Muhammad Ali's visit to Fidel Castro. His profile of Joe DiMaggio, "The Silent Season of a Hero," perfectly captured the great player in his remote retirement, and displayed Talese's journalistic brilliance, for it grew out of his on-the-ground observation of the Yankee Clipper rather than from any interview. More recently, Talese traveled to China to track down and chronicle the female soccer player who missed a penalty kick that would have won China the World Cup.
Chronicling Talese's writing over more than six decades, from high school and college columns to his signature adult journalism— and including several never-before-published pieces (such as one on sports anthropology), a new introduction by the author, and notes on the background of each piece—The Silent Season of a Hero is a unique and indispensable collection for sports fans and those who enjoy the heights of journalism.

I'm A Celebrity: Daniel Baldwin Disses Janice Dickinson In Exit Interview
June 12, 2009 07:03 PM by Britteny Elrick
The most recent castoff on I'm A Celebrity…Get Me Out Of Here! opens up about the scariest part about living in the jungle: Janice Dickinson. Get the scoop from Daniel Baldwin on this and other hot topics including Speidi's torturous night. Keep reading for full details…
As reported by PEOPLE: "Janice Dickinson is undereducated and over-medicated," Baldwin told reports after leaving the jungle. "I struggle with people who have that sense of entitlement. Like Spencer and Heidi [Pratt], she [thinks] being annoying will keep her on the show. She urinated in the camp rather than walk an extra 25 steps, she stole food and lied about it… It's almost a sociopath's behavior."
"I know he'll miss me," said Danielin regards tohis brother Steven. "I don't know how well Alec [would do] patience-wise, but there's been talk for years of us all doing a movie. We're very funny.""The price would shoot up a bit for Alec," conceded Daniel. "When you talk about chemistry and humor, you'd be better off with Stephen and me."
Of course, Daniel had to comment on the most dramatic contestants on the show thus far. "As torturous as Heidi and Spencer tried to depict this, it was nowhere near as hard as I thought it would be. There was food, there were cots under cover, there were [toilets] and showers. I thought I'd have to suck the the spider venom out of my brother's arm. But they even have medics there for that," he said.

Reviews for Watermelon Slice Cookies
"love it so good"
"Fabulous! Will make again and double the recipe. Grandkids loved the."
"I thought these were great ~a wonderful summer sugar cookie! I could not find the food color gel but the liquid worked just fine."
"This cookie is well worth the time and effort. It is adorably perfect, and the taste is even better. This is our family's tradition every year for the first day of summer vacation!"
"Tried these for Vacation Bible School. I used margarine instead of butter and my dough was still soft after overnight refrigeration. Slicing was not easy. What have others used to slice the dough? Wondered if making a longer log would help with slicing although it would be a very small cookie when cut in half. Even tried a cheese slicer with wire to slice. Also, the taste is on the bland side--butter would probably help with the taste."

Hawker Fare Brings Pricey Southeast Asian Street Food to the Mission
There is not much I can actually claim to know anything about, but given my Southeast Asian heritage—and the fact that I spent the majority of my 20s traveling the backpacker circuit through that part of the world—I feel confident about my knowledge and familiarity with the cuisines of the region. So when Michelin-starred chef James Syhabout recently opened the second outpost of his Thai street-food eatery Hawker Fare in the Valencia Street corridor, we summoned a First World tuk-tuk (aka an Uber) to whisk us there, stat. No reason to keep nostalgia waiting.
Juhu Beach Club: A Taste of Mumbai Street Food Comes to SoMa
SF-based Top Chef alum Preeti Mistry recently stepped away from her most recent post as the chef of Charlie's Cafe, Google's biggest restaurant and took some time to get herself to Mumbai. Though her mother grew up there, Mistry hasn't been back for 20 years, and found herself in the Juhu Beach area soaking up the street food snacks, readying herself to bring the ideas home and tweak them to suit San Francisco.
Have We Reached Gridlock? Matt Cohen On Food Trucks in 2011
The street food scene has exploded in the last two years, with a new food truck being born every day. But just how far this trend can go? Is it sustainable? Are we witnessing gridlock? If there's one person who would have some thoughts on the matter, it's Matt Cohen, the 31-year old founder of the SF Cart Project and Off the Grid, the mobile street food market. We caught up with Cohen after listening to him speak on the future of food trucks at last week's Commonwealth Club event "SF Street Food Update."
Street Food Carts Get Park Assignments
The word is starting to trickle in that Parks & Rec have begun calling applicants who made a bid for an ongoing, permanent street food space in one of the 219 parks in San Francisco. Though nothing is final yet (applications still have to be approved by the commission and a public hearing will be held for each new addition), chances are good that come spring you'll be seeing Let's Be Frank carts near the Conservancy of Flowers in Golden Gate Park and at Justin Hermann Plaza.
Bringing War to Food Lovers. One Mini Cupcake at a Time
Tickets for this coming weekend's SF Food Wars sold out in one hour and 3 minute.
And that's not just because this month's food war is called the "The Mini Cupcake Clash" and the 170 ticket-holders are the designated eaters. Last month, tickets for Mac and Cheese competition sold out in 20 hours.
And that's not just because Mac and Cheese is the savory comfort food equivalent to the cup cake.
Food warfare is just plain fun -- whether it's a high school cafeteria food fight with edible projectiles or an Iron Chef culinary show-down.
Word On The Street: The Must-Do, Must-Eat At The SF Street Food Festival
For the last many, many months (you know, when I wasn't eating burgers), I've been working tirelessly with La Cocina to organize the city's first ever San Francisco Street Food Festival. Now, with the big day less than 48 hours away I'm thrilled to be able to tell you all that we're ready. Bring on the pupusas, the barbequed oysters, the agua fresca the...well, here are my top seven picks for things you really, really shouldn't miss when you come and join me and fellow food-lovers at the festival (THIS Saturday, August 22, from 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. on Folsom Street between 25th and 26th).
When Is a Food Cart a Food Carte?
A central tension is emerging as street food carts take to the city in droves. What, exactly, constitutes proper street food? Can you serve fancy food and pedigreed ingredients from a cart? Do people want frogs legs and bagna cauda from a mobile vendor? When is a cart actually a carte?
The No-Fail Guide to San Francisco Street Food
Now that street food mania has reached a fevered pitch, we thought it time to offer this comprehensive guide to the city's best street eats—a map shows you where to find it, our Twitter-feed guide gives your the tools to track the vendors, our Flickr group allows you to upload your own pictures of street food, taken anywhere in the world and our Resource Guide gives all the hard-core street food enthusiasts some more ways to geek out. Plus, a guide to the best bars in the closest proximity to the best mobile food vendors.
Bar and Street Food Pairings
Drink here: One of the city's best-loved wine bars, SOMA's Terroir specializes in unique and interesting organic vintages, served in a warm, rustic setting.
Eat this: For a perfect pairing with that glass of Côtes du Rhone, Chez Spencer's Spencer on the Go! truck offers French food—ranging from frogs legs to vol-au-vents—right across the street from Terroir. It's open Thursday-Saturday, 6 p.m. to close, and you can bring your food into Terroir (provided you're drinking wine).
Drink here: The hip hop-heavy nightclub 330 Ritch has a more sedate feel on Friday afternoons, when a live jazz combo plays and numerous $6 drink specials are on offer.
What Is Real Street Food Anyhow?
The Magic Curry Kart, the Sexy Soup Lady, Bike Basket Pies, the creme brulee guy, the French taco truck. Boccalone's Salumi Cycle is delivering sandwiches. The economy seems to be turning San Francisco into one big Twitter-fueled, "nonrestaurant" bake sale (with elements of Burning Man thrown in)—all under the guise of street food, "authentic" or not.

Snack Cake- Just What the Dr OrderedFriday, June 11th, 2010
Thank you to A Whisk and A Spoon for this great recipe!
Almond-Rhubarb Snack Cake- makes one 9-inch round cake
adapted from Baking for All Occasions by Flo Braker
Steph's Note: A half recipe bakes up nicely in a loaf pan. Just be sure to start checking it 10-15 minutes early, as it will take less time to bake.
For the Cake
1 ¾ cup (7 oz/200g) cake flour
½ t baking soda
¼ t salt
1/8 t baking powder
4 oz unsalted butter, room temperature
1 cup (7 oz/200g) granulated sugar
½ t pure almond extract
½ t pure vanilla extract
2 large eggs, lightly beaten
¾ cup (6 fl oz/180ml) well-shaken buttermilk
4 ½ oz narrow rhubarb stalks (about 3), trimmed and cut into 1/8-inch thick slices, to yield 1 cup packed
½ cup natural or blanched sliced almonds
For the Almond Topping
2 T unsalted butter, melted
1 T all-purpose flour
1 T heavy cream
½ cup (2 ¼ oz/65g) granulated sugar
½ cup (1 oz/30g) natural or blanched sliced almonds
-Before baking, centre a rack in the oven and preheat oven to 350°F. Butter a 9-inch round springform pan with 2 3/4- or 3-inch sides. Line the bottom with parchment paper.
-To make the cake: Have all ingredients at room temperature. Sift together flour, baking soda, salt and baking powder onto a sheet of waxed paper; set aside. In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat butter on medium speed until smooth and creamy, 30 to 45 seconds. Add sugar in steady stream, stopping the mixer occasionally to scrape down the sides of the bowl. Continue to beat on medium speed until mixture is very light in color and texture, about 3 minutes. Add the extracts during the final moments of mixing.
-With mixer on medium speed, add the eggs, about 3 T at a time, beating after each addition until incorporated. When mixture is fluffy, reduce speed to low and add flour mixture in three additions alternately with the buttermilk in two additions, beginning and ending with the flour mixture and mixing after each addition only until incorporated. Stop mixer and scrape down sides of the bowl after each addition. Fold in the rhubarb slices and almonds with a rubber spatula. Spoon the batter into the pan and spread evenly with the spatula.
-Bake the cake until a round wooden toothpick inserted in the centre comes out free of cake batter, 40-45 minutes.
-About 15 minutes before the cake is ready, begin making the Almond Topping: In a small saucepan, mix together the butter, flour, cream, and sugar and stir over low heat just until blended.
-About 10 minutes before the cake is ready, remove the cake from the oven, pour the topping mixture over it and sprinkle the almonds over the top. Return the cake to the oven and bake until the topping spreads over the cake and just begins to bubble, about 10 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack and let cool in the pan for about 20 minutes.
-Slowly release the springform clasp and carefully remove the pan sides. Let the cake cool on its base on the rack for 10 minutes longer. Then invert a wire rack on top of the cake, invert the cake onto it, and carefully lift off the base. Slowly peel off the parchment liner, turn it over so that the sticky side faces up, and reposition it on top of the cake. Invert another rack on top, invert the cake so it is right side up, and remove the original rack. Let cool completely.
-Serve at room temperature, cut into wedges with a sharp knife. Cover any leftover cake with aluminum foil and store at cool room temperature for up to 2 days.

Spring officially begins on Thursday and one city is thinking ahead to warmer temperatures.
Greenville Animal Control says Wal-Mart has donated 50 five-gallon water pails in anticipation of calls about heat-related issues involving animals in the summer.
The water pails will be given to people who are having financial difficulty. They're made of durable plastic with a strong reinforced ring around the top to prevent cracking in the heat.
"Our philosophy is just because someone is down on their luck and having financial difficulty, doesn't mean we cannot step in and give people a hand up," said Animal Control Director Tim Langley. "We know people love their animals! This is a way for people to continue to keep their beloved pet and be within the scope of the law."
Langley has also applied through Wal-Mart Charities for a $5,000.00 grant. This grant will be used to purchase dog houses and other animal products in an effort to help reduce animal cruelty.
For more information about how you can obtain a water pail for your dog, contact Langley at email@example.com.

On Easter Sunday at the Tribeca Film Festival in New York, Bellwether Pictures' Joss Whedon and Kai Cole made an unexpected announcement after premiering their latest production "In Your Eyes." Directed by Brin Hill and written by Whedon, this metaphysical romance is now available to download instantly for $5 via the film's website.
The release is being powered exclusively by Vimeo On Demand and has been translated into Spanish, German, Portuguese, French and Japanese for the worldwide release. "In Your Eyes" marks Bellwether's second micro-studio production following last year's contemporary spin on "Much Ado About Nothing," which was written and directed by Whedon.
Here's the synopsis of "In Your Eyes," starring indie starlet Zoe Kazan. Below, watch Whedon's announcement of this unusual distribution strategy, which Tribeca-goers caught after the film's premiere last night:
In the frozen East Coast winter, Rebecca (Kazan) is withering away in a life of cocktail parties and lonely nights as the sheltered, soft-spoken wife of a successful doctor. Across the country in sun-drenched, arid New Mexico, charismatic ex-con Dylan (Michael Stahl-David) is struggling to find his footing and a fresh start. When these polar opposites realize they share an inexplicable connection, a unique metaphysical romance begins.
Indiewire's Eric Kohn writes, "'In Your Eyes' successfully offers the lightweight alternative to Whedon's bigger projects: It's cheesy and slight, but persistently smart and entertaining within those narrow parameters."

* Eugene Isenberg agreed to waive his right to a $100 million termination payment that was triggered when oil driller Nabors Industries replaced him as chief executive.
* Five Wall Street banks have been invited by the New York Fed to bid for a multibillion-dollar bundle of risky mortgage bonds it owns as a result of its 2008 rescue of AIG.
* Investigators in a world-wide probe of how crucial interest rates are set are focusing on a small number of traders suspected of trying to influence other bank employees to manipulate the rates.
* Greece has agreed to lay off 15,000 public-sector workers by the end of 2012, as international pressure mounts on Athens to agree on austerity measures needed to secure major new debt agreements.
* A state-appointed financial custodian released a recovery plan for Harrisburg on Monday, moving Pennsylvania's capital closer to resolving its financial crisis.
* A bankruptcy trustee investigating MF Global said he faces huge challenges getting back an estimated $1.2 billion in customer funds drained from the securities firm before it collapsed.
* With Glencore International AG and Xstrata set to unveil their long-awaited tie-up, a big question is whether Xstrata shareholders will support the deal - not a given in light of U.K. investors' recent history of flexing their muscles.
* Wal-Mart Stores Inc tapped a new China chief as it looks to regain its footing after several missteps in one of its most important growth markets. The U.S. retail giant named Greg Foran president and chief executive of Wal-Mart China. He succeeds Ed Chan, who resigned in October for what the company has said were personal reasons.
European corporate defaults are widely expected to climb sharply this
year despite the recent improvement in credit market sentiment as bank
lending cuts and a deteriorating economic backdrop put many smaller or

BAE Systems, Europe's largest defence contractor, has signalled its
willingness to reduce the price of the Eurofighter Typhoon to win back a

European officials are insisting any new Greek bailout programme
specifically earmark funds to pay off remaining holders of Greek debt,
giving lenders the freedom to withhold aid to Athens without risking a

Britain's banks, insurers and brokers must change their attitude if the
UK's shift to a "twin peaks" model of two "proactive, judgment-led"
regulators is to take effect smoothly and efficiently, the chief
executive of the Financial Services Authority has warned.

* Greece said it would cut 15,000 state jobs this year as part of new austerity measures it intends to adopt to secure new debt agreements. Athens is racing to push through economic changes that will persuade its private sector creditors to grant easier debt repayment terms and prompt Europe to release 130 billion euros, or $171 billion, in the next round of bailout money it needs to avoid defaulting on bond payments due in March.
* The European Commission said it would continue charging airlines for their greenhouse gas emissions, despite an announcement from China that its carriers would be forbidden to pay without its permission. The EU program, which began on Jan. 1, requires airlines to account for all emissions on flights using European airports.

"Romney campaign takes aim at rival Santorum" ?
Yes, get the fake fight going so Ron Paul can keep building his base.
"Britain's banks, insurers and brokers must change their attitude if the UK's shift to a "twin peaks" model of two "proactive, judgment-led" regulators is to take effect smoothly and efficiently, the chief executive of the Financial Services Authority has warned"
I wonder where this is leading, Mr. King is bent on having "broad discretionary powers" of just regulating without regulations
Rules for money market that say you can only receive 95% of your money on demand and the rest by the end of the month. Wonderful.
"The generosity of giving you the choice of which way to die is really not much of a choice," said Mr. Donahue of Federated.
They're also proposing to allow the funds to float. So not only will you break the buck, you won't be able to liquidate your position immediately.
Rather own gold....
Great sacrifices for Greece? That is a way to put it.
What is expecting them is sisysphean work, the danaids barrel.
The Greeks are about to surrender their high level consumer status in the US citizen worldwide Ponzi, to be charged with the goal of paying back on their debt hold by insolvent agents.
Trading with insolvent entities does not enable to extinguish a debt, it only furthers debt as in return, the Greeks are going to receive a share of the insolvency of their trade partners.
Anytime the Greeks will trade with their insolvent european partners who hold their debt, the Greeks will only sink deeper into debt, as they will receive for the wealth they export, bits of insolvency.
Welcome to Tartarus, Greeks.
