Derricktung's Chinese Sausage Extravaganza
Here's another pie that we've been working on where we used suggestions from Za Pi fans to figure out what may work. We have a few more tests to go with this one, but we've definitely found one combination we really like with the Chinese sausage. Chinese sausage is typically a cured but very sweet sausage. It can be fried or steamed for great flavor and tastes great by itself, but when I first tested with just tomato sauce, I found it to be simply too sweet and one note in flavor. Here's what we tried, from top left clockwise around:
Chinese Sausage test: - Sausage on all
Tomato sauce and fresh mozz (mozz brings nothing, overpowered by sausage)
Olive oil, red onion (too much onion, and still too sweet… needs salt? Pepper?)
Olive oil, celery (nice crunch, no flavor)
Tomato sauce, red pepper flakes, green onion, Grana pandano (clear winner.. the slight spice of the pepper falkes along with the parmesan's saltiness balanced the sweet sausage very well.)
Anyone have any other suggestions or ideas on what Chinese sausage may pair well with? Someone suggested fish sauce, and after one whiff of opening the bottle, I had no clue how to integrate that into a pie... the other suggest, Chinese mustard greens, will definitely be tested soon..." —Derricktung

To open the bottom of the first inning on Saturday, West Marin's Liam Jay hit a shot through the defense to earn a leadoff single. That was just the beginning of a huge day at the plate for West Marin.
Using 13 hits and five walks to galvanize its offense along with a stifling defense, West Marin erased an early two-run deficit to rally for a 5-2 win over Twin Cities in a California District 3 Little League juniors division quarterfinal playoff game at Vallecito Park.
"I am very proud of the boys," West Marin manager Tim Pult said. "They played solid defense and solid defense will always get you the win."
West Marin faces Mill Valley in the semifinals on Sunday at 3 p.m. at Vallecito Park.
Twin Cities jumped out to a 2-0 lead in the top of the first inning behind an RBI single by Charlie Quanstrom and an RBI double by Michael Benz. West Marin responded with three runs in the bottom of the first, with two coming on a single by Matt Brockley (3 for 4).
West Marin then contained Twin Cities' offense thanks to some superb pitching. Jay pitched two innings, allowing only three hits, with two strikeouts. Chad Vasquez took over in third and dominated for four innings. He allowed just one hit — he picked that runner off first base — and struck out four. He also accounted for three defensive outs, including a diving catch and a subsequent throw to first.
"I feel like I took it one pitch at a time," Vasquez said. "I didn't let any (mistakes) get to me I just kept on going."
West Marin added to its lead in the fifth with an RBI single from Jay (3 for 3) and the team tacked on another run in the sixth when Keegan Pedersen (3 for 3) blasted a home run to left field.
"I felt very good (about my hitting)," Pedersen said. "It's a team sport and I thought we all hit the ball pretty hard."
Twin Cities put runners on first and second with no outs in the top of the seventh inning, but Nick Roth closed out the game for West Marin by striking out a batter and then inducing a game-ending double play.
"We had six errors and four of their five runs were unearned," Twin Cities manager Glen Roiz said. "(If) we don't make those errors we win 2-1. We did not play well at all as far as in the field."
Sam Roiz pitched 4 1/3 innings for Twin Cities, striking out four with no earned runs allowed. Andreas Marroquin and Andreas Gleckman combined to throw the remaining 1 2/3 innings, giving up two runs.
"We pitched OK (but) the pitchers didn't get any help," Glen Roiz said. "One earned run is all they had but (unearned runs) were our M.O. for the whole tournament."
West Marin's players felt very good about how they played collectively throughout the game.
"We played together as a team and we all played well," Vasquez said.

Brute Force
Review by Xander to Faith
"Hype can make developers rush games..."
This game really tries to be the next Halo, but like most Microsoft first-party games, it fails to be any fun. The only games I can think of that were any good made by Microsoft were Halo, Mech Assault, and Unreal Championship. That list is pretty small for a company that is been in the game business for 2 1/2 years. This game also like most Microsoft games was way too overhyped. People were calling this game the next Halo and saying that it was the next big X-Box hit. I pray to the high heavens that people don't listen to the publicity. The game isn't the worst X-Box game (just play Kabuki Warriors and you will see why), but it isn't the best either, it is merely average.
Graphics: 7
Mmmm... well, it isn't so bad to look at. The graphics are actually pretty decent. Everything has a Halo like feel to it, but everything doesn't look as smooth as Halo does. Each of the characters are actually well made and look like some work was put into them. The enemy units also look fairly well and there are more than a dozen different enemies, unlike Halo. The only problems with the graphics is everything has a rough feel to it, much like a Playstation 2 game. Another problem that is very noticeable
in Multiplayer is slow down. There should never be slowdown in an X-Box game, especially as bad as this game does.
Sound: 8
Everything actually sounds pretty good. The voice acting is decent, the gunshots have a difference between guns, and the background music gets you pumped much like Halo's music does. There really isn't many problems, but the sound has a chance to be better in the next game.
Control: 2
Ouch, everything seems to go fairly well with the game until you control it. Many people say it is Halo in a third person view. I say it is Halo in third person view after being assaulted with a base ball bat. Everything is so hard to control in this game. Trying to move and fire at enemy is a fairly hard task, causing your fingers to hurt. In fact moving your character is much more of a chore than it should be. I would press forward on the controller, and my character would jerk around like they were unsure what they should do. In the heat of battle, it can cause you to sign your own death warrant. Another problem is how your squad works. The controls for your squad are much like Ghost Recon, accept for the fact that your team doesn't help you in this game like your team does in Ghost Recon. I would lead my troops down a gulch only to be ambushed. I would automatically start attacking, but it would be upwards of 30 seconds before my team would move, more or less open fire. Some levels can take forever just for that reason. If Microsoft wants the second game to be any better, they need to work their butts off on the controls.
Story: 6
This game just seems to borrow everything from Halo. The story is basically like Halo, revolving around a resistance group in the future fending off an alien menace. The story doesn't have many surprieses, but it supplies just enough story to keep you going. If you were in the least bit intrigued by Halo's story, then you will like the story in this game.
Life Span: 8
This game will take a while due to the fact that the controls suck and your team is as smart as a bag of bricks. I stopped counting the number of times I died due to my teammates long after the 20s. Everything is made twice as hard due to your teammates. The game isn't really fun to play, and the ending doesn't really pay off.
I suggest that instead of buying this game you buy Halo or if you have Halo, you play Legendary mode in single player to keep you busy until Halo 2. Hopefully the inevitable seaquel is much better than this game. Brute Force had high standards and it folded under the pressure.

This is a guest blog post written and contributed by Bill Hodak, director of product marketing at New Relic, an application performance management vendor and Rackspace partner.
Rackspace lives by the motto "Fanatical Support" and New Relic couldn't agree more. We both believe that making the customer succeed is our success. This philosophy is of the utmost importance in maintaining applications in the cloud. And it is also integral to our mutual customers' businesses. In this post, we look at a company that leverages both New Relic and Rackspace solutions.
Customer service can make or break a brand. Just ask Zendesk. The popular cloud-based help desk system helps more than15,000 companies deliver exceptional service. Its customers – including Zappos, Groupon, Dropbox and Open Table – love the company's product. Many send videos and thank you messages about how Zendesk has made their lives easier by providing fast and easy access to the information they need to support their customers.
At peak load times, Zendesk processes more than 60,000 requests per minute (RPM) and 500,000 queries per minute. It must be available from anywhere, on any device, at any time. The smallest glitch in performance or reliability can negatively affect the more than 65 million users interacting with the system. Preventing such issues is the company's first concern.
To ensure an optimal user experience, Zendesk needed both a performance monitoring tool and a hosting platform that could meet its needs as a growing company. First, New Relic gave Zendesk's engineering team an easy-to-use intuitive tool to help it pinpoint and resolve performance issues quickly. Then, as it outgrew its original hosting environment, Zendesk turned to Rackspace to build a scalable, secure modern architecture.
Zendesk says it sees New Relic and Rackspace as the best-of-breed providers in their respective spaces. And each shares Zendesk's commitment to deliver outstanding products and outstanding support. Together, New Relic and Rackspace complement each other and help the company achieve the level of availability and performance its customers rely on.
"Rackspace has a great reputation," says Zack Urlocker, Zendesk's COO. "They are known for their high availability, performance and security. When we tell people that we are running on Rackspace, we consistently get a great response. Our customers know they are in good hands."
"The New Relic dashboard is excellent at showing us if we have a performance problem and where it is," adds Tim Sturge, director of operations at Zendesk. "Being able to take that information and drill down to the source is terrific."
Zendesk knows New Relic and Rackspace are a winning combination. The Rackspace hosting environment and the New Relic application performance management tool create a foundation for Zendesk's continued success. This frees the company to work on application features, and make and deliver the best cloud-based solution on the market.
New Relic has partnered with Rackspace to offer New Relic Standard for free (a $50 value) to all Rackspace customers interested in managing and monitoring their web applications. If you want to be like Zendesk and find out how you can use New Relic on Rackspace to monitor and boost the performance of your entire web app environment, go to http://www.newrelic.com/rackspace to get started.


text: I stumbled across these Celestion clones recently as I'm putting together a cab for a couple of recording projects. I wanted a 4x12 with 2 x veteran 30s in an 'X' with 2 x G12h30s to fill out the bass. I seriously thought I was going to have to actually save for a while to fill the cab with the speakers I wanted but then I ran across the WGS website. The Veteran 30's fit the bill but they had no gh30 replacements...until I found their new speaker that is coming out in 3 weeks, the reaper. A drop in replacement for gh30. The price is right, assembled in America, and (after a little research) found a few positive mentions round the web so I called up David at WGS. Very cool guy and hooked me up with a couple of the first of the new reaper speakers. They, and 2 veterans, are on the way. I'm always psyked to put buzz to the test, but has anyone around here have any feedback about these speakers?

After sloppy spell, March ushers in warmer-than-normal temperatures
Kiss that sloppy winter goodbye with a lamb-like beginning to March. Today's quiet weather kicks off slightly warmer than normal conditions set to last through the weekend, the National Weather Service said.
This morning, the weather service released its meteorological winter in review, showing the state's weather data logged this winter, which officially ended Thursday. The numbers confirm what many can easily suspect: The state saw more snow, more rain, and more warmth than most other winters.
"We're in the top 25 percent of winners in terms of all categories, warmest, wettest, and snowiest winters of the over 100 year record,'' said meteorologist Ben Sipprell.
This winter seemed especially harsh in light of last year's more benign winter, which followed a particularly snowy season. That year-to-year inconsistency, potentially affected by human activity, makes it even harder for meteorologists to predict coming winters, he said.
"That's probably why I can't tell you what the next winter is going to be like,'' Sipprell said, "because there hasn't been any consistency between the winter data from year to year.''
Today's skies will be mostly cloudy with a slight chance of showers throughout the day. Highs could reach 44 in Boston with a slight breeze from the north. Overnight lows will hit freezing in Boston, the weather service said.
"Whatever snow is out there is gradually disappearing,'' said meteorologist Charlie Foley.
The weekend will be much of the same, with a mix of sun and clouds and daytime highs in the mid-40s, just above normal, Foley said. Today's slight chance of showers will last through Sunday night, and overnight lows in Boston will just hit freezing Saturday and Sunday night.

This review is from TEXTURED OVAL LABEL, 21 UP, 10 SHEETS 8216:
I was excited to see labels that will actually fit the Ball Quilted Crystal mason jars. These are matte texture labels - and they print very faintly on an inkjet printer - although they do line up correctly. Although they indicate Laser/Inkjet - they are really only for an inkjet. If you print on them with a laser printer - they look good for a few seconds - but toner falls off the label while attempting to apply the label to a surface - and then they look cheap - actually unacceptable looking. I have some very extensive jar label designs and I really need these to be gloss.

The Greening of Business
Vast valuable resources make up our global commons. Human interaction with these areas is contributing to climate change, water and air pollution, and other forms of environmental degradation. Increasingly, both small and large businesses and industries are realizing the importance of operating in a more sustainable manner so as to avoid potential environmental ruin.
The evolution of these new management efforts, often referred to as the ?greening of business,? range from responding to government-sponsored environmental standards to voluntary efforts toward lowering a business' environmental impact to setting up networks for sharing knowledge and best practices. These efforts, however, vary in both effectiveness and sincerity?as environmental stewardship has become more popular and widespread, some merely engage in the practice of ?green washing,? or marketing oneself as being environmentally responsible so as to yield a business and/or profit advantage. Many businesses, most importantly, are realizing that environmental stewardship can translate directly into increased efficiency, lower costs, and higher profits.
Early efforts focused primarily on energy efficiency. In 1992, the Environmental Protection Agency and the Department of Energy teamed up to establish the Energy Star Program. Energy Star for businesses is designed to provide an energy management strategy that helps in measuring current energy performance, setting goals, tracking savings, and rewarding improvements. Such an approach is useful in that simply informing businesses of how well they are performing is often enough to further motivate significant additional steps toward greener business practices. The Energy Star logo has since become widely recognized as a staple of modern electronics in both homes and businesses.
In addition to government-sponsored programs, stakeholders from industry and the non-profit sector are creating a number of certification programs designed to establish sustainable codes of conduct. Due to concerns about rapid deforestation, particularly in the Amazon rainforest, the forestry industry provides a good example of an industry working to develop and promote codes of conduct through various timber certification programs. Once certified, timber producers can label their products as such, thereby allowing customers to purchase sustainable timber with a higher level of confidence. In turn, timber and other certification programs may allow for the greening of other business aspects, in particular the construction of LEED-certified or other green buildings.
The International Organization for Standardization (ISO) is a standard-setting body that advances world-wide industrial and commercial standards, including environmental management guidelines through ISO 14000. These guidelines exist to help companies and organizations minimize their negative impact on the environment through comprehensive process solutions rather than focusing on the product itself. This ensures that the widest array of protective measures is implemented and allows companies to communicate their environmental responsibility to consumers with a high level of verifiability. Companies and organizations are not mandated by any government body to participate in ISO 14000 standardization. Rather, participation is motivated by increased efficiency and improved public relations, which in turn can lead to increased profitability.
Many companies, however, are developing their own guidelines and strategies for creating sustainable business. For example, Wal-Mart has committed to selling only concentrated liquid laundry detergent to conserve water, plastic, and cardboard, and Dell Computers has committed to aim for carbon neutrality. Yet, there is often skepticism, as some wonder if many of the actions are just a wide re-branding of longstanding interests and activities. After all, companies have always sought ways to increase sales and profits through enhanced efficiencies in manufacturing and distribution processes. With increasing interest in climate change and environmental protection, many companies may simply be describing their normal activities in a new light.
Other large companies are spearheading environmental stewardship efforts as government institutions have foundered in terms of environmental regulations. Google recently launched an initiative to develop electricity from renewable sources cheaper than electricity produced from coal. Despite the fact that this initiative is fairly removed from Google's main business strategy, it is an example of how companies are committing to protecting the environment. Not long ago, Google installed the largest corporate solar array at its main campus in Mountain View, California and committed to carbon neutrality for 2007 and beyond.
Simply offsetting carbon emissions does not constitute sustainable management, however. Carbon neutrality efforts are usually a combination of reducing and offsetting emissions, therefore opponents argue that the practice allows companies and individuals to continue their bad habits without guilt. However, a transition to increasing sustainability is not immediate, and companies must often take smaller steps toward becoming green businesses. Carbon offsets often provide a good way for businesses to work toward sustainability in an incremental manner so long as it is followed by an ongoing effort to decrease their overall environmental footprint.
On the other side of the spectrum, small- to medium-sized businesses are sprouting networks to link themselves and other businesses with values-driven consumers to further promote and sustain green business. One of the oldest and largest green business networks is maintained by Co-op America, an organization that defines green business as business conducted as a tool for social change, as values-driven and not solely profit-driven, and as socially and environmentally responsible in the way they source, manufacture, and market their products. The over-arching goal of Co-op America's Green Business Network is to provide the tools and information needed for small- to medium-sized businesses to succeed in today's intensively competitive marketplace. Members include well-known companies as Burt's Bees, Clif Bar, and Patagonia.
Because the private sector has such a massive impact on the natural environment, it is becoming imperative that any comprehensive effort to protect the environment include a strategy to encourage the greening of business. Investments in efficiency are often the easiest way to make a business greener as they simultaneously reduce greenhouse gas emissions while increasing productivity and profitability?allowing us to do more with less. With an ever-increasing popularity of environmental stewardship, green hype, and an awareness of global climate change, the movement towards the greening of business will continue to be in the forefront of both the news and industry action for the foreseeable future.

Hi Mr. Ed,
My best recommedation for a Zerona doctor in Montreal is to AVOID any doctor offering the treatment and save your money, time, and hope. The 635nm laser is unabel to penetrate through the skin to cause the effects that are claimed. If you have small specific areas of fat, Zeltiq is an effective fat lessening technology. Good luck and be well.

On November 8, 2007, the Food and Drug Administration issued a public health advisory titled: Erythropoiesis- [eh RITH ro POH eh sis] Stimulating Agents (E-S-As); known as Epoetin alfa [eh POH eh tin AL fa] (marketed as Procrit or Epogen) and Darbepoetin alfa [dar beh POH eh tin AL fa] (marketed as Aranesp).
I am Mandy Eisemann from F-D-A's Center for Drug Evaluation and Research.
We have approved revised labeling for the E-S-As that clarifies how to safely and effectively use these products and to strengthen the information about risks from using E-S-As. These changes reflect the advice we heard from two advisory committee meetings held this year. Here is a summary of the information and guidance for doctors and patients that is in the revised labeling.
Patients with cancer who are currently using or considering the use of an E-S-A should know the following:
- First, E-S-As may shorten your survival time or may cause your tumors to grow faster.
- Second, E-S-As should only be used to treat anemia caused by chemotherapy and not other anemia from other causes in patients with cancer.
- Third, E-S-As should not be used to treat the symptoms of anemia, such as fatigue or improve the quality of life in patients with cancer. The goal of treatment with E-S-As is to avoid blood transfusions.
- Finally, treatment with an E-S-A should be stopped after you complete your course of chemotherapy.
Patients with chronic kidney failure--including both patients on dialysis and those not on dialysis--who are currently using an E-S-A should know the following:
- First, your hemoglobin level should be checked regularly to make sure it stays between 10 and 12 grams per deciliter.
- Second, E-S-As can increase your chance of heart attack, stroke, blood clots, heart failure, and death when they are given to maintain higher hemoglobin levels.
- Finally, if you are not responding to treatment with an E-S-A, meaning your hemoglobin levels are not increasing, ask your doctor if you need to be checked for other causes of anemia.
If you are a patient taking Zidovudine [zye DOH vue deen] for HIV and are being treated with an E-S-A for your anemia, you should be aware that there is no evidence that E-S-As lessen the symptoms of anemia, such as fatigue.
All patients should talk with their health care provider about any concerns or questions they may have concerning the use of E-S-As.
Healthcare professionals should read the full prescribing information and the revised Information for Healthcare Professionals.
FDA and Amgen, the manufacturer of these products, and Ortho Biotech Products, L.P, a Johnson and Johnson Pharmaceuticals Research and Development subsidiary, the distributor of Procrit, have changed the labeling for Aranesp, Epogen, and Procrit to reflect the updated safety information and to provide additional instructions to both doctors and patients for their use. A Medication Guide is also being developed to better communicate the risks and benefits of E-S-As to patients.
FDA-approved uses of E-S-As are for the treatment of anemia: in patients with chronic kidney failure, in patients with cancer whose anemia is caused by chemotherapy, in patients with HIV whose anemia is caused by A-Z-T (zidovudine [zye DOH vue deen]), and to reduce the number of transfusions during and after major surgery, except heart surgery.
We are asking health care professionals and patients to report serious side effects after using E-S-As to us through the MedWatch program by phone at 1-800-F-D-A-ten-88 or by the Internet at F-D-A dot G-O-V slash M-E-D-W-A-T-C-H.

The company, which was founded in 1986, is considered to be the world's leading expert in wooden carousel design and manufacturing. They employ skilled artists and wood carvers that have a strong commitment to quality and originality.
Their creativity goes beyond horses and zoo animals to frogs, kangaroos, grasshoppers, snakes and many other creatures. The murals are customized for each carousel and are hand painted.
The meeting will begin at 1 p.m. in the Church In Aurora's fellowship hall. Guests are welcome and refreshments will be served.
The April meeting will be a day trip to the Western Reserve Historical Society and Cleveland Museum of Art. It is for members only who have reservations. There will not be a meeting at the Church in Aurora in April.

This winter has been a crockpot kind of winter! The Aurora Cooks! met Feb. 25, to share a bowl full of comfort food and commiserate about the weather. Members discussed slow cooker recipes while they sampled the handywork of their fellow chefs.
All the dishes were cooked in crockpots.
Karen Piwonka prepared easy chicken tamale pie. She added double the spice but deleted the cilantro. The top layer consisted of spicy cornbread. The dish was delish.
Dee Steitz cooked ground beef vegetable casserole. She omitted the ground beef and added ground turkey and rice — better for the waistline. The recipe called for tomato juice and she improvised with V-8 juice. The ladies thought it added more zest.
Ellen Payne made chicken tortilla soup. She added chili powder instead, which contained of most of the spices the recipe called for. It was healthy and tasty.
On March 18 from 5:30 to 6:30 p.m., the Aurora Cooks! group will dish about journey stories passed down though their families and share a completed recipe. It is in conjunction with the Aurora Historical Society's and Smithsonian's "Journey Stories" exhibition that the society will have open for viewing.
If you would like to be part of the Aurora Cooks! call Aurora Memorial Library at 330-562-6502.

If you dislike Martha Stewart, don't bother looking for new dirt in "The World According to Martha," edited by Bill Alder Jr. (McGraw-Hill, 2005). The book is a collection of sound bites that Martha said in public, on purpose. There is nothing new here to use against her.
On the other hand, if you find Martha at least occasionally inspirational, you may find new inspiration here. The book is divided into topics: on herself, on fans, on her critics, on customers, on being a perfectionist, on entertaining, on decorating, on holidays, on fashion, on food, on style, on weddings, on her business philosophy (possibly the most inspirational chapter), on branding, on the Internet, on Kmart, on her magazine, on fame, on home, on marriage, on pets (she adores her many pets), on family, on household chores, on some pet peeves, on the stock market, on the ImClone debacle, on serving time, on her deal with Sirius, on television and her TV show, and on other people. The last chapter offers "what other people say about Martha."
Except for the introduction, the book consists of short-to-medium quotes. It's the sort of book you put on the little shelf in the bathroom, or by the phone for when you are on hold - interesting enough to read in bits (if Martha does not annoy you) but nothing to engross you for a long period of time. Bill Alder, who is a New York literary agent in addition to being the editor of this book, has edited numerous quotation books, including "The Kennedy Wit" and "The Uncommon Wisdom of Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis."
A few samples
"A lot of people don't see my sense of humor. Generally, I'm pretty straightforward on the television show because it's my teaching approach. But I have a very good sense of humor, (although) sometimes it's maybe too sophisticated for people. But I like poking fun at myself"(2002).
On customers: "What do they need and want? Those are our mantras" (2002). And, "I listen and I listen. … To me, the most important persons to listen to are my readers, my viewers, my listeners and my Internet users. I read every letter. I think about what they say, and I try to respond to them in a favorable way" (1999).
On entertaining, "When it comes to entertaining, the best room isn't in the house. It's outside" (1988).
On food: "…I had no problem cooking for large numbers because I came from a big family and was good at math. I just took my favorite recipes and multiplied them" (1989).
On style: "I see no division between the type of merchandise at a mass-market store and a department store. My table settings mix inexpensive things with my own family heirlooms and collectibles and things I get from the gardens and from nature" (1988). And: "With good posture, you will always look terrific. I take Polaroid pictures of them (friends) in their usual stance. When they see the photos, they straighten up" (1996).
On business: "What's the next thing? I really think it might be organizing the homemaker. I think every one of us needs to be better organized. We want to have more time" (2001).
More on business, my personal favorite quote: "Always evolve, don't try to drastically change your business" (2002).
"The World According to Martha" is available at Main Street Cafe & Books, 134 Main St.

If you read fresh Android news, you have probably heard of the new icons called Moonshine. Though it's just a rumor, it's very probable that these icons are going to be used in next version of Android and/or in web sites such as Gmail, Google Drive and others. Android Police server has provided us the screenshots with these icons and as you might expect, these icons have been ported (according to this screenshot) and they're now available for download!
If you haven't heard about these icons yet, you should definitely check them out:
As you can see on the screenshots above, the icons are nicely redefined and have a nice look. If you look closer, you can see the shadow of the icons (that's probably why it's called Moonshine) and I wouldn't mind them if they appear in the new Android version.
According to these screenshots, a smart Android user Pablo Poll has make a port with these icons coming in the apk file and it's working on any launcher that supports this feature (to change the icons).
I find them very cool and nice and if you want, you can download by clicking the link below:

There is abundant evidence that the risk of atherosclerotic vascular disease is directly related to plasma cholesterol levels. Accordingly, all of the national and transnational screening and therapeutic guidelines are based on total or LDL cholesterol. This presumes that cholesterol is the most important lipoprotein-related proatherogenic risk variable. On the contrary, risk appears to be more directly related to the number of circulating atherogenic particles that contact and enter the arterial wall than to the measured concentration of cholesterol in these lipoprotein fractions. Each of the atherogenic lipoprotein particles contains a single molecule of apolipoprotein (apo) B and therefore the concentration of apo B provides a direct measure of the number of circulating atherogenic lipoproteins. Evidence from fundamental, epidemiological and clinical trial studies indicates that apo B is superior to any of the cholesterol indices to recognize those at increased risk of vascular disease and to judge the adequacy of lipid-lowering therapy. On the basis of this evidence, we believe that apo B should be included in all guidelines as an indicator of cardiovascular risk. In addition, the present target adopted by the Canadian guideline groups of an apo B <90 mg dL(-1) in high-risk patients should be reassessed in the light of the new clinical trial results and a new ultra-low target of <80 mg dL(-1) be considered. The evidence also indicates that the apo B/apo A-I ratio is superior to any of the conventional cholesterol ratios in patients without symptomatic vascular disease or diabetes to evaluate the lipoprotein-related risk of vascular disease.

Boulder Family Photographer | South Mesa Trail Family Photos in Colorado
One of the sweetest couples that I've ever had the pleasure to photograph recently got back in touch with me to let me know that they were having a baby. I photographed their wedding in Boulder back in 2012 up at Sunrise Amphitheater and Flagstaff House. It's incredible how much their lives have changed in such a short amount of time. Alycia had a stint working in Southern California but is now back in Boulder and John is a referee for the NHL and travels a lot during hockey season. And the best change is their new family member they named Kaitlyn. She's a year old now and they wanted to get some updated family photos with their new daughter together. She's just the cutest little girl and her tiny little hands holding onto the apples we found at the South Mesa Trail could not be cuter! Check out their sneak peek below!

Sunrise Amphitheater Wedding Boulder | Wedding Reception at D-Barn in Longmont
Ihave been looking forward to photographing Danielle & Jarred's Sunrise Amphitheater wedding in Boulder for over a year now. When we first met they told me that they were planning for their wedding to be a little bit off the beaten path. They planned to run the whole ceremony themselves at the beautiful Sunrise Amphitheater which looks out over the entire city of Boulder and beyond. They incorporated their closest friends and family by having them do short readings about what creates a good marriage and all built a cairn together. Building a cairn was a great way for these two outdoor enthusiasts to acknowledge their love of hiking and the great outdoors into their wedding ceremony. I also really love that they were able to have their adorable Cavalier King Charles Spaniel decked out in his own doggie tux hang out with them throughout the day:) Before the ceremony began, we drove up Flagstaff Mountain just a little farther to get some photos at the beautiful Lost Gulch Overlook. Danielle and Jarred chose to do a first look and this was a really pretty location for that. After the ceremony we drove to Longmont where the historic D-Barn is located on Main Street. They did a really great job with the DIY decor of their wedding and with the help of their day of wedding coordinator, Amelia Metzger from Alegre Kreations the inside of the barn looked beautiful. I particularly liked their pretty tied ribbon photobooth backdrop. And the pretty cloth napkins all hand-tied for the BBQ dinner was a nice touch too. Overall, it was a lovely day for a sweet and simple wedding celebration for two laid-back people in love.

Flagstaff Sunrise Amphitheatre Wedding Boulder Colorado
Alycia & John have the sweetest story of how they came to be a couple. I may have some of the details off, but this is the gist of it. (Alycia & John, please feel free to correct me if I'm wrong:) When they were kids they knew each other because both of their families had property in Lake George, Colorado. So they grew up seeing each other there. When they were teenagers, there was a forest fire that threatened Lake George and both of them came back to help their families evacuate and they noticed each other and started dating. For reasons that I am not aware, after high school they moved on and didn't see each other for awhile. But then Alycia moved back to the area and when John found out he asked her to go see a Broncos game with him. Alycia assumed it would be a nice platonic activity to do together, but discovered that the spark was still there and they've been together ever since. I swear it could be the makings of a Reese Witherspoon rom-com!
They held their intimate wedding ceremony at the Flagstaff Sunrise Amphitheatre in Boulder and finished off the day at the Flagstaff House restaurant where they soaked in the love of their friends and relatives with a stunning view of the Boulder Valley in front of them. What a perfect day!
Alycia & John,
I hope you had some wonderful adventures out in Hawaii! Talk about a romantic place to spend time together. Can't wait to see you again this weekend at the BBQ!
These Lulu Townsend shoes are so pretty!
Isn't that inscription just perfect for them?
In light of Alycia & John's "first" date this is a very fitting garter:)
First kiss on their wedding day:)

Alycia & John used the same cake knife that her parents used in 1980. They added their details on the back.
Technology can be so great. John's brother was across the world in Okinawa Japan serving as a Marine and couldn't physically be there. But this was a great way for him to still be there!
Fave for sure!

NEW YORK (TheStreet) -- Siemens (SI) and General Electric (GE) have been virtual doppelgangers for half a decade now, with big operations in energy and health care, and with stocks on similar trajectories.
The chart below shows the companies' similar performance over the past five years.
And so the new Siemens CEO Joe Kaeser, who took office last year after a revolt over those results, was at the company's "Siemenstadt" in Berlin yesterday, a former headquarters, to unveil an overhaul he says will emphasize profits over growth, and put the GE-like performance in his rear-view mirror.
The results so far are disappointing.
For its second quarter, Siemens reported 17.45 billion euros in revenue, down 2% from a year earlier, but 1.153 billion euros in net income, or 1.33 euros per share -- up 12%. Wednesday, Siemens opened at $133.60, up more than 2% over Tuesday's close.
Kaeser has promised a 15% profit improvement, but given the Ukranian crisis overhanging European businesses, he is now offering just operating profit targets for individual divisions rather than the whole company, calling the current environment "challenging."
But before Kaeser can move further in Siemens' transformation, he has to deal with a GE takeover bid.
No, GE isn't buying Siemens, although technically it could, being more than two times larger by market cap. Instead, GE wants to buy the electrical systems business of Alstom, based in France, for 12.4 billion euros. That's about $17 billion at current exchange rates.
The French government wants Siemens to make a counter-offer to keep the company in European hands. The saga put Kaeser's big news, the 960 million Euro ($1.33 billion) purchase of Rolls Royce's turbine business, in the shade.
And Kaeser's plan, called Vision 2020, is not to go big but to go small.

Old Bay beer from Flying Dog Brewery based in Frederick
FREDERICK, Md. (AP) - Frederick-based Flying Dog Brewery is releasing a special-edition beer honoring the 75th anniversary of McCormick's Old Bay seasoning and the Maryland crab it often pairs with.
Flying Dog Brewery says on its website that it worked with spice experts for six months to develop the recipe for "Dead Rise Old Bay Summer Ale." The brewery says the beer has a hint of citrus and a tart finish. The label on the beer is a picture of a Maryland blue crab, and proceeds from sales of the beer will benefit a program that promotes sustainably harvested crab in the state.
The beer is expected to be on shelves Memorial Day through Labor Day in Maryland, the District of Columbia, Virginia, West Virginia, Pennsylvania, Delaware, New Jersey, New York, and North Carolina.

The National Weather Service has issued a coastal hazard statement for Northern California beaches on Thanksgiving Day.
Visitors to the Golden Gate National Recreation Area beaches in Marin, including Rodeo and Stinson beaches, are urged to use caution, said Alex Picavet, Golden Gate National Recreation spokeswoman.
Waves as high as 10 feet are possible; "sneaker waves" and strong rip tides could emerge as well, officials said.
A man died after being swept out to sea by a treacherous wave while walking with his wife and their dog at North Beach in Point Reyes National Seashore on New Year's Day this year.
"People need to be aware, they can really be caught off guard," Picavet said. "If your dog gets in the water they usually make it back. We advise not to go after them."

text: I've rewritten sparse/sparsetools to speed up some of the slower bits in current code. The previous implementation of CSR/CSC matrix addition, multiplication, and conversions were all very slow, often orders of magnitude slower than MATLAB or PySparse. In the new implementation: - CSR<->CSC conversion is cheap (linear time) - sparse addition is fast (linear time) - sparse multiplication is fast (noticeably faster than MATLAB in my testing) - CSR column indices do not need to be sorted (same for CSC row indices) - the results of all the above operations contain no explicit zeros - COO->CSR and COO->CSC is linear time and sums duplicate entries This last point is useful for constructing stiffness/mass matrices. Matrix multiplication is essentially optimal (modulo Strassen-like algorithms) and is based on the SMMP algorithm I mentioned a while ago. I implemented the functions in C++ with SWIG bindings. The C++ consists of a single header file with templated functions for each operation. SWIG makes it easy to instantiate templates for each data type (float,double,long double,npy_cfloat,npy_cdouble,npy_clongdouble). For the complex types I had some trouble at first, as they do no support arithmetic operations out of the box, that is, A+B works when A and B are floats or doubles, but not npy_cfloats or npy_cdoubles. To remedy this I wrote C++ operators for the complex types (in another header file) to implement the necessary operations. I used the SWIG example in the NumPy codebase (with some alterations), so strided arrays should be handled correctly. Also, when two different types are used together (e.g. a CSR matrix of type float64 is added to a CSR matrix of type float32) SWIG overloading takes care of the conversion. It will determine that float32->float64 is a safe cast and use the float64 version of the function. Some care is needed to ensure that the most economical function is chosen, but I think this can be accomplished just by ordering the functions appropriately (e.g float32 before float64). Currently the indices are assumed to be C ints. If we wanted both 32bit and 64bit ints it would be possible to template the index type as well. One challenge in writing sparse matrix routines is that the size of the output is not known in advance. For example, multiplying two sparse matrices together leads to an unpredicitable number of nonzeros in the result. To get around this I used STL vectors as SWIG ARGOUTs. This produces a nice pythonic interface for most of the functions. For functions operating on dense 2D arrays I chose to use an INPLACE array, since the size is known in advance. The code is available here: http://graphics.cs.uiuc.edu/~wnbell/sparse/sparse.tgz The sparse directory in the archive is indented to replace the sparse directory in scipy/Lib/ I've successfully installed the above code with the standard scipy setup.py and all the unittests pass. A simple benchmark for sparse matrix multiplication SciPy and MATLAB is available here: http://graphics.cs.uiuc.edu/~wnbell/sparse/sparse_times.m http://graphics.cs.uiuc.edu/~wnbell/sparse/sparse_times.py On my laptop SciPy takes about 0.33 seconds to MATLAB's 0.55, so 40% faster. The code was all written my myself, aside from the bits pilfered from the NumPy SWIG examples and SciPy UMFPACK SWIG wrapper, so there shouldn't be any license issues. I welcome any comments, questions, and criticism you have. If you know a better or more robust way to interface the C++ with Scipy please speak up!. Also, who should I contact regarding SVN commit privileges? -- Nathan Bell wnbell at gmail.com

The transition from high school to collegiate soccer is never easy. But as youth development in the United States continues to progress, the number of players who are ready to step in during their first year is increasing exponentially.
Here's a look at eight freshmen who have shined in 2010:
[inline_node:322395]Soony Saad, Michigan, FW
The 2010 High School Player of the Year knows how to find the back of the net. He scored 172 goals during his high school career in Dearborn, Mich., including 76 his senior year. Through Nov. 2, he has scored 14 goals in 16 games as a Michigan Wolverine, best of the freshmen class. While he has netted a number of impressive goals all season, perhaps none is better than a wind-aided 67-yard strike against Bowling Green on Oct. 27.
"He is able to go off both feet, right and left, is good in the air, and has an awareness to his game that not a lot of players have," Michigan head coach Steve Burns said. "He knows how to use players as decoys, knows how to move off the ball and pull defenders off the ball.
"The guy who can score in close range, but he's [also] has a great strike from far range."
Darren Mattocks, Akron, FW
Akron produced some serious attacking talent in the last few years – current MLS players Steve Zakuani and Teal Bunbury emerged from here – and the Jamaican striker has shown he has shown he can follow in the footsteps of Zips before him, netting 11 goals in 16 games.
"He's what a striker should be – extremely dangerous, has pace, always looking to stretch the game and get behind, and he's a goal scorer," Zips coach Caleb Porter said. "We play a very attractive style, we're on the ball a lot, we have long periods of possession, but in order for that to correlate to wins, you've got to have someone that will bring penetration, and that's what he brings to our team."
Kelyn Rowe, UCLA, MF
On one of the youngest teams in the nation, 18-year-old Rowe is the unquestioned leader of the Bruins' offense. A native of Federal Way, Wash., Rowe has started all 16 games for his side so far, driving the attack with six goals (three game-winners) and six assists.
[inline_node:322393]Perry Kitchen, Akron, MF
Tough, gritty and determined, Kitchen captained the US U-17 side in the 2009 World Cup in Nigeria before joining Akron this fall. His value to the Zips is immense, protecting the back line in order to allow Akron to play attack aggressively. Kitchen's presence has also softened the blow of losing both Blair Gavin and Ben Zemanski to MLS last year.
"He's a leader, a winner, a warrior, plays very simple within himself, and does all the little things right," Porter said. "He's a ball winner, good in the air, tenacious, and that allows us to play as adventurously as we do in the attack, as he will sit back and hold things better. [He] probably does the defensive work for two or three guys.
Tyler Polak, Creighton, DF
The US youth national team defender has quickly established himself as one of the best left backs in the country. Polak has emerged as a shut-down back, locking down the opposition's flank, but he has yet to show a penchant for bombing forward and contribute to the attack.
[inline_node:322394]Patrick Mullins, Maryland, MF
The only reason Patrick Mullins hasn't made a bigger name for himself this year is Maryland's impressive depth (nine starters returned from 2009). But the Louisiana native has made the most of his minutes, scoring four goals and adding four assists in 13 appearances (all but one off the bench) in the first year of what is shaping up to be an extremely promising career.
"He's been great," said Maryland coach Sasho Cirovski. "He's got a magic left foot, the ability to serve in a cultured ball or to have a powerful shot, and he's also scored three goals with his head for us, which was a pleasant surprise."
Juan Castillo, Southern Methodist University, FW
The Texas native's nine goals – tops for SMU – have helped the team put together an impressive 2010 season. After notching seven goals in the first eight games, Castillo has hit a bit of a draught, and will need to be in firing form come tournament time if the Mustangs hope to hit the later rounds.
David Opoku, UC Santa Barbara, FW
The Ghanaian is electric, particularly in the attack. Playing with a flair and athleticism that is rarely seen at this stage of a college career, Opoku has tallied five goals, playing a huge role in the Gauchos' seven-game winning streak earlier this year. If he continues to come along, UCSB might have a chance to play for the College Cup in front of a home crowd.

text: So I was crocheting Christmas ornaments for my family and it occurred to me that I could probably construct a basket out of yarn, and managed to make a mini Discatcher to hang on a tree. The chains are all connected to a loop around the pole just like a real basket, and the little yarn putters are pretty difficult to sink. This one was pretty fun to do.

OLTL introduces a new face — and brings back two familiar ones — this week
Read with caution -- contains scoopage!
Matt Ashford, recently slain Serial Stalker victim Jack Deveraux on NBC's Days of our Lives, and who first starred on OLTL as Drew Ralston in the eighties, is now Dr. Stephen Haver, a psychology professor at Llanview University. What does he teach? A rather provocative subject matter!
"All the students want take to take human sexuality with him," Ashford chuckles.
Here's the set up for the character. Haver, who's been knocking around Llanview "for a couple of years," comes to the aid of Jessica, who's approached him for advice. "She wants to talk to me about a professor who wants to trade sex with this one student for grades," explains Ashford. "I say we have to turn him in right away."
Dr. Haver's expertise also ties him to the Music Box Killer search. "He's written books on criminally abhorrent behavior, so he's drawn into the case by the FBI," Ashford says. "And he knows John McBain."
By week's end, Dr. Haver is making his voice heard on campus. "I'm going on the radio, stating that sexual harassment is no joke," he declares. "I have a feeling Stephen has a weakness for publicity." Could he just be a red herring?
Plus, crazy Dr. Troy is out of the big house and back in Llanview when Ty Treadway reprises his role on Dec. 10. And Daytime vet Heather Tom (ex Victoria, Y&R) makes her OLTL debut on Dec. 11 as Kelly Cramer. "It's been great," Tom gushes about her switch to the New York-based soap. "I'm getting an opportunity to do some really great work."

The sports schedule in the Pikes Peak region has been wiped out Tuesday by wind, snow and cold temperatures.
Tuesday night's game between the Colorado Springs Sky Sox and Tucson Padres has been postponed. The game will be made up as part of a doubleheader starting at 11:05 a.m. Thursday. Both games will be scheduled for seven innings.
The game scheduled for Wednesday at 11:05 a.m. between the Sky Sox and Tucson has been postponed because of forecasted cold weather and unplayable conditions. The present conditions in Colorado Springs with snow, high winds and freezing temperatures that postponed Tuesday's game also factored into the postponement.

Fans with tickets to the games can exchange them for any other Sky Sox 2013 regular season home game excluding July 4. Tickets must be exchanged in person at the Sky Sox box office.

Inglorious Basterds
Quentin Tarantino
Brad Pitt, Mélanie Laurent, Christoph Waltz, Daniel Brühl, B. J. Novak, Til Schweiger, Diane Kruger
(The Weinstein Company)
US theatrical: 21 Aug 2009 (General release)
Inglorious Basterds
Quentin Tarantino is like an obsessive-compulsive kid with ADD. One moment, he's bemoaning the many projects he can't get off the ground, the next he's knee deep in the production of another one of his homage heavy masterworks. For the longest time he's been bellyaching about being unable to make his dream epic—a balls out, violence heavy World War II example of 'Grunt' Guignol. Now, Inglorious Basterds is about to compete at the Cannes Film Festival. This tale of a group of Jewish American soldiers in France, hand picked to spread terror amongst the occupying forces of Nazi Germany, has everything Tarantino could want—history, bombast, machismo, potential cinematic references, a killer cast, and more excuses for blood and bedlam than Kill Bill and Reservoir Dogs combined. While some were disappointed with his last effort - the Grindhouse bound Death Proof—here's betting he's back in the geek's good graces with this gore-laced love letter to the brutality of war.
H2: Halloween 2
Rob Zombie
Malcolm McDowell, Matt Bush, Scout Taylor-Compton, Brad Dourif, Tyler Mane, Danielle Harris, Sheri Moon Zombie
(The Weinstein Company)
US theatrical: 28 Aug 2009 (General release)
H2: Halloween 2
Nothing is more satisfying that being one of the few voices of reason during an otherwise marginalized film's first few weeks of release. While this critic championed Rob Zombie's first foray into John Carpenter's classic slasher mythos back in 2007, he was one of a rare few. Many decided to defend the original post-modern master of suspense, letting fandom fuel what were typically one-note judgments. Now, in the light of a DVD release day, there are more appreciators of Zombie's reinvention of the Michael Myers legend than legitimate haters. Now, after initially vowing not to return to the franchise, Zombie is back, preparing to take the masked spree killer into territory both fresh and familiar with this hospital based showdown. The trailer looks especially brutal, and as the mind behind The Devil's Rejects, this is one director who understands the nasty. Here's hoping that, with the bellyaching over "trodding on tradition" done with, audiences give this film an unbiased look.
The Boat That Rocked
Richard Curtis
Philip Seymour Hoffman, Tom Sturridge, Bill Nighy, Rhys Ifans, Nick Frost
US theatrical: 28 Aug 2009 (General release)
The Boat That Rocked
1960s pirate radio circa Swinging London. A cast that includes Rhys Ifans, Philip Seymour Hoffman, Nick Frost, and Bill Nighy. The writer behind such feel good hits as Four Weddings and a Funeral, Notting Hill, and Love Actually (which he also directed). So far reviews have been good to mixed, with the large company being pointed out for much of the praise/problems. As long as the music stays true to the context, this could be a genuine jukebox gem. Still, there's more than enough room for error here, especially among die-hards in 'tune' with the era.

These golden potato pancakes are traditionally served during Chanukah, but we enjoy them year-round as an accompaniment to Sunday brunch, or side-dish with brisket.
- Yield
- 25-30
- 6 large Idaho or russet potatoes peeled
- 1 medium-large onion
- 2 extra large eggs lightly beaten
- 2 tbsp. flour
- 1-1/2 tsp. salt
- 1/4 tsp. pepper
- vegetable oil to cover the bottom of a 12" or larger skillet about 1/4" (I like to use my Cuisinart electric skillet for these)
- Grate the potatoes and the onion by hand using a flat wire grater, or use my quick method: Use your food processor coarse grater for the potatoes and onion; then, using the cutting blade, pulse on and off about 5-6 times until still coarse. Don't let it puree or the latkes won't have the right texture. Drain off any excess liquid. Add remaining ingredients and stir well to combine. Heat the oil on medium high. If you're using an electric skillet, set temperature to 300. Using a large soup spoon, gently place spoonfuls of the potato batter into the hot oil and pat down gently with the back of the spoon. The latkes should be flattened ovals about the thickness of a chocolate chip cookie. When the edges are browned, flip over gently, using the tines of a fork, and fry the latkes until they're a deep brown and crispy on both sides. Place on paper towels to drain quickly, then keep warm on a rack in a warm oven while you make the rest. (The rack will keep them from turning soggy). This recipe yields about 25-30 potato latkes. Great with sour cream or applesauce. If necessary, can be made ahead earlier in the day, covered loosely with foil on a rack, and then reheated in the oven to retain crispy exterior. They do not refrigerate well for reheating later.

Sound — 9
This is the new Bob Dylan CD that came out November 15th, one of the many best of's or greatest hits out there. This CD basically spans his whole career from the '62 classic Blowing In The Wind to 2001's Summer Days. If you are not familiar with Bob Dylan's sound he sweep picks a lot of his songs, a lot of harmonica's ussually that normal '60s sound you hear. I was never into Bob Dylan a year ago but since watched a TV documentary on him called "No Direction Home" and after seeing his contributions to the usic industry I have a new found respect for him. Where most guitar player I have seen play ussually play Slayer, Metallica (overrated), Megadeth and Green Day I am sure after you hear this CD it will open up new horizons on what kind of songs you want to know how to play.
Lyrics — 10
Lyrics? Bob Dylan is one of the greatest song writers of all time (Mr. Tambourine Man, All Along The Watchtower, Knockin' On Heaven's Door) just to name a few. Very hearfelt lyrics, Bob is one of those people who says whats on his mind. He's political, funny (Rainy Day Woman #12 & 35) and just overall one of the greatests, although he does not have the greatest voice you'll ever hear. Bob said one time " All you need is two chords and the truth."
Overall Impression — 9
I like this CD, although I think it is missing out on a couple songs (it ain't me, positively fourth street, and Masters Of War). Personally my fav's on this CD are Knockin On Heaven's door and Like A Rolling Stone which is arguably the best rock and roll song of all time (not just my opinion). Overall I think this was a good buy if you are into the new or the old Bob Dylan because like I say it spans his whole career. I prefer the older Bob Dylan, any ways enjoy. Also check out Greatest Hits Vol. 1 and Highway '61 Revisited.

Bingo! Tom, what you said about PGUSER triggered something I was wondering about: if running as a virtual web server was different (and how) from running at the command line. Here's the fix I used: I used some C code from the examples directory to make the same connection through the web server. I still wasn't getting connected, but at least the error message in the server's log was informative: it said it failed during a call to getprotobyname(). I had no clue what it was, but looked it up. It says that it reads /etc/protocols. I somehow "knew" that /etc/protocols didn't exist while running through the web server; our hosting company had mentioned before that the file permissions, etc. are different - more protected - from httpd. So, the easy fix was to copy /etc/protocols to ~/etc/protocols (a directory "readable" from our virtual server's httpd process. It worked like a charm. :) I have no clue if it's a "legitimate" fix, or if any harm can be done, but for now it's staying. :) Thanks go out to Tom Lane and everybody that offered help!

Viewpoint: Rebuttals to two readers' responses
This is to provide a response to those who criticized my statements concerning the problem of illegal immigration, and the millions of jobs illegal immigrants have taken from American citizens ("One-armed economic advice to fix the economic downturn: A viewpoint," Bulletin, Jan. 28.)
Carol Turnbull suggests my allegation has been proven to be untrue. Mrs. Turnbull can join the proverbial ostrich with her head in the sand, because she is simply deluded if she thinks there aren't millions of illegal immigrants working in America (despite the recent exodus coinciding with the current state of the economy).
Just about every estimate out there suggests that there are between 8 to 20 million illegal immigrants in the United States.
Does Mrs. Turnbull think that none of them have jobs? Isn't that the main reason they come here?
Another critic, John W. Shirts, at least doesn't deny the obvious existence of these illegal workers.
In fact he names various industries they are employed in such as nurseries, construction jobs like siding and roofing, housekeeping jobs at hotels and motels, food service workers, and jobs in assisted living and nursing home settings.
Shirts is absolutely right about these and many more job fields held by illegals which add up to millions of jobs across the United States.
In my own field of housing construction, I have witnessed firsthand all the Spanish-speaking crews that are working across the Twin Cities.
Companies hire the illlegals for a fraction of the prevailing wages in the industry, then underbid companies who try to play by the rules.
The result is honest Americans lose their jobs while unscrupulous and unpatriotic companies exploit vulnerable illegals and make big money.
Mr. Shirts claims that the illegals are not taking American jobs, because Americans don't want and won't do the work the illegals are doing. Well Mr. Shirts, may I ask who did these jobs before all these millions of illegals flooded into our nation?
Another question. For the sake of argument, if all the illegals had never been allowed to come to America, would all these millions of jobs have just gone undone? Of course not.
The employers would simply have had to pay a more attractive wage to draw workers (rather than exploiting the illegals).
I don't know how Mrs. Turnbull or Mr. Shirts can justify the current situation in which these millions of illegal workers are exploited to provide cheap labor for business.
What rights and benefits do these illegals have? Will they have social security or any other retirement benefits? Do they get paid extra for overtime? Are they guaranteed the minimum wage? How many women suffer from sexual exploitation and harassment in the workplace, but are terrified to report it?
Put me in the camp that is in favor of law and order, and in favor of jobs for American citizens, and for all the rights and privileges of citizenship for legal immigrants.
