- Data Security and Privacy
Companies now recognize the immense opportunities—and responsibilities—of data in today's always-connected world. We partner with you in maintaining the trust of customers, investors and business partners.
Each year, there are more than 1.5 million cyber-attacks on U.S. businesses. Victims include some of the biggest names in American business, as well as smaller businesses in every industry. Perhaps more importantly, everyday access to data can result in losses even without an attack: devices can be lost or stolen, for example. Every data incident has the potential to become a legal matter and can result in financial losses, litigation and erosion of investor and customer confidence. We advise clients on compliance with government regulations, internal assessment and planning, and response to incidents and litigation.
Companies with access to valuable data are finding that compliance with federal and state privacy laws is becoming increasingly complex. The exposure can be significant for violations. We provide industry-specific guidance in health care, financial services, consumer marketing, telecommunications and other segments. We also counsel on use of online and "cloud-based" networking capabilities and the specific risks they can present.
Most companies benefit from a cross-functional team, including legal counsel, IT professionals and the C-suite executives, that addresses risk management and best practices in order to limit exposure. Our breadth of experience is the perfect complement to your internal cross-funded team. Likewise, we have assembled a multi-disciplinary team of attorneys who work with clients to manage risks in advance of any problems, and respond quickly if an incident occurs.

I've started getting more into the cookie side of things with my business. So... I am acquiring a lot of cookie cutters. How do you all organize them. I've gotten where I forget what I have and don't have... Help... I'm not a good organizer and would love some tips....
I just have the thrown in a bin with a list of the cutters by theme. Probaby not the most organized way to deal with them all because everytime I need to look for one, I have to take them all out of the bin, but I haven't come up with a better solution. And at least with the list, you have an idea of what's in there.
Hi there.
I think that organizing the cookie cutters by theme is a godd idea, I mean, by Holidays: all Easter together, all Christmas together(I have a lot of these and in different sizes, so here I'll do a subcategory )(laughs) Well I hope I gave you another idea. Good Luck!!!!
Can I high jac this thread and just ask you cookie gals if you know of ANY scooby doo face cookies? I pm'd the lady on here who made them and never heard back, any ideas??
As far as organization-I bought one of those flip top file folder storage box-which is clear and add the new cutters to a list then drop it in, AND let me say although I keep a list I have still ordered the same cutter twice! LOL!
I have a large 66 quart container. I place all cutters into gallon size storage baggies. The baggies are marked by holiday or occasion. If I need my easter cutters I just go to the container and pull out the bag that has Easter written on it. If I have more than 1 bag for the holiday or occasion I just put 1 of 2 or 2 of 2 on the bag also. I do the same for the smaller cutters I just use a different container so I know where my different sizes are.
All you need to do is organize them once. When you get a new cutter you just put it directly into the bag that fits the occasion.
Try Coppergifts.com I found a "monster" face which was perfect for Cookie and Elmo. They have really nice cutters!
Try Coppergifts.com I found a "monster" face which was perfect for Cookie and Elmo. They have really nice cutters!
Oh I love coppergifts.com! I tried looking for Scooby, now I am off to find this monster cutter NOW! THANKS A MILLION!
I also keep my cutters in gallon size bags that are labeled.
I also have an inventory list of the cutters to avoid buying duplicate cutters. Hubby can download the list to his phone, so when we are out shopping, he can look up what I have and don't have.
Technology......gotta love it (when it works!)
There was a thread going on this before "The Crash of '08"-lol
I have about 550 cutters and a bunch of templates...I am fortunate enough to have a house with ALOT of built in cabinets. I organized all of my cutters in ziplocs by occasion, and placed them in photo boxes (the kind at AC Moore that were 2 for $3, that have the label spot on the front) and on the inside cover of each box i have a list of what is in there. I also have a notebook in which i have traced all of my cutters so i know which purses, shoes, easter (or whatever) cutters I have. I also keep all of my invoices from when I order cutters , so I can remember where I got them..I know that seems like a lot of work, but it really helps in organizing them all.
As far as the Scooby Doo goes...I had a heck of a time finding one about a year ago..I ended up making a template! I hope you have better luck
WOW, great ideas chqtpi! And thanks for being such a downer on my Scooby!! LOL! ONLY TEASING! I saw the monster cutter that would make a perfect elmo! BUT the frankenstien is what I bought-flip him upside down and WHOLA-SCOOBY! You guys are great!
Ok, and my family calls me a neat freak!!! I love all the organizing ideas!! The Ziplocs in the bin is a really great idea. I don't think I could pull off all the different boxes (although that is a goal I'd love to attain).
I have lots of cutters that I keep in plastic shoe boxes from the Container Store.:
I can get three "layers" of cutters in each box. I wash and dry my cutters before going in. Since I've been using these I've no longer had problems with rusting. The cutters/ boxes are divided into categories such as:
Christmas (3 of these)
home (telephone, mixer, houses, etc.)
etc., etc., ...
I put a label on both sides and the top of each box. I stack these in a closet and can easily see the labels from any angle.
I keep a running list on my computer. Each category has sublists. Christmas
Copper - 5
tin - 3, 4, 5
candy cane
copper - 6 whimsy
tin - 3
coated - 3
I have a three-ring binder that I keep these printed lists in. I also trace my cutters and make photocopies. I call these my cookie coloring pages. When I want to try something different, I print off a sheet of them and draw out my designs. I know what I want to do and how many icing colors I'll need. This is great for kids, too.
I also have an idea binder. I keep photos of my cookies along with others I find on the web. Cut-outs from magazines, newspapers, etc. Anything I think might make a cute cookie. I always try to make things my own, but inspiration can come from anywhere. I hope this helps and isn't more information than you wanted.
Honeydukes ....You are really organized !!
Honeydukes ....You are really organized !!
It's the only part of my life that is!!! I can tell you where my heart with wings cutter is, but I can't find my favorite summer purse, mini tripod, ...
Honeydukes.. Im right there with ya ! I have 6/20qt tubs with all of my cutters in them and a list on each tub saying whats in it ! But your one up on me with th rest of it ! Then again , I also cant find my favorite pair of summer shorts etc ! I have been wanting to look for, just in case the weather gets nice ! I hope I still fit into them ! But back to the cutters ! I still have to hunt through each tub for a certain cutter , even if that tub is all xmas, or food shapes etc ! Grrrrrrrrr!
I have mine in plastic containers like many have said, but I HATE it! It annoys me to no end, digging through the whole containe to get one cutter out! I would love love love to have them hanging by pegs in the kitchen, but there is no wall space for that.
WOW!!! Thank you for all your help! I have some work ahead of me now!!
I have 100's of cutters now too......someone sugessted to do a spread sheet and big zip lock bags
I go to the dollar store and buy "plastic shoe boxes". I label each one with what type, like most of you do and I also number them, since I might have two of Christmas, but didn't need another shoe box until later. That way I can cross reference by box number or box name. Instead of tracing my cutters, I take a digital picture and print it out on my b/w printer. As for cookie cutters that come in big boxes (like the Williams-Sonoma star wars), I keep them in the box. I then put them in a BIG (4' X 2') rubbermaid tub, which I label on the outside. Also, I try to buy colored tubs (orange, red, green..et) to put each category of cutters in ( like orange for Halloween), since I don't have a lot of storage space, the tubs go out in the garage. Each tub is labeled with what number shoe box is in it. I also do this with most of my baking equipment also.
By the way, when I print my pictures out, I print to PDF first, because it can be opened on almost anything. I have a Sony tablet that I take with me every where and if I want to look at my list, all I have to do is open the PDF. I'm also thinking about making a database, so I can search for them easily.
By the way, I just found out that if you go to:
You get
Little Miss Muffin Pets Foil Bag
that comes with a little toy and a cookie cutter for .98 cents. You won't know which one you will get, but if you can manage ordering 20-30, you should get at least one set of each one and probably two sets. These also make nice party favors for little kids or girls.
Have a good day
Oh yeah, other than copper gifts, does any one know where I can buy a scalloped square cc? I refuse to pay $15 for one cc.
I use 12x12 scrapbooking storage containers like this:
They stack gorgeously, fit nicely in my cabinet or guest room closet shelves, and are pretty inexpensive. I have them sorted by theme as well. (Food, Christmas, Basic Shapes, Ocean, etc.) I put a label on the front, and whenever I buy a new cutter, I add it to the list on the front of the box so I can see at a glance exactly what is in there.
FYI, these boxes are also awesome for storing dough balls for a big pizza party (I built a wood-fired oven in the backyard).
AI use the 12x12 scrapbook paper storage cases as well, but I put a sheet of card stock in the middle so I have two sides and can just flip it over to see what is inside.
A cookie cutter in American English and biscuit cutter in Commonwealth English is a tool to cut out cookie/biscuit dough in a particular shape. They are often used for seasonal occasions when well-known decorative shapes are desired, or for large batches of cookies where simplicity and uniformity are required. Cookie cutters have also been used for, among other uses, cutting and shaping tea sandwiches.
AI happen to come across this forum and start reading some posts before I plan on searching for the post I am looking for. After reading the entire post, I really like the idea of tracing the cookie cutter and even photo copying it and storing it in a binder. I tend to print picture and print articles if I find them interesting. I also have them all I. Folder including other papers like, diff tips and do's and do nots that I've read, liked and copied in a word doc. and just printed it out to put with the rest of the photos of cake, cookies, fondant or gum paster figures or flowers, print outs that I created of techniques, step by step on how to create certain figures.... In my binder I plan on not only adding all my stuff and using dividers to put them all in different sections. Also with of course recipes and a notebook or pad to sketch down my own thoughts of sketches,
Just thought d share that is a great idea to keep and trace the cookie cutters. Some pics can even help with your cutter, I've used index card paper to trace with the X knife and even a razor blade...it was one of the best cookies and not the easiest! But one tip i just came across and planned to use for Christmas cookies is to use PHOTO paper . It is a lot harder and steady. We'll see. I think I've tried wax paper also!
Good luck!
I'm barely getting to this and i love everyones ideas since buying cookie cutters seems to be a hobby in itself! LOL
I started keeping a list of cutters too, as well as tips and americolor "colors" and no matter how updated i try to keep it, i end up with doubles or similar. Never a bad thing though, because the kiddos love to rush to "help" when I'm in the middle of an order. So I set them up with a lil patch of dough on another table and they get to make their own at the end of my batch (so they dont get included to mine).
PS...on the scalloped cutters, $15 is insane for a cutter no matter how beautiful...karenscookies.net ($2-$3?) sells them now and so does cheapcookiecutters.com ($5?) somewhere along the under $5 price.

On 13 July 2011, European Centre for Disease Prevention and Control (ECDC) published the first issue of the European monthly measles monitoring [1]. The objective of this monthly online publication is to provide European Union (EU) Member States and European Economic Area (EEA) countries and other stakeholders with timely updates on the measles situation in Europe.
In 2010, the countries in the World Health Organization European Region committed to eliminate measles and rubella transmission by 2015 [2]. However, there are clear indications that the intensified circulation of measles virus in western Europe over the last few years will continue in 2011. ECDC's epidemic intelligence activities revealed six deaths and more than 21,000 measles cases in 23 of the 27 EU and four European Free Trade Association countries during the first six months of 2011. A high proportion of the infected were unvaccinated and the highest incidence was observed among children under one year of age who are too young to be vaccinated. The majority of cases result from transmission within and between EU Member States.
In response to the ongoing measles epidemic in the EU, ECDC will step up surveillance and establish a confidential communication platform for timely exchange related to vaccine preventable diseases, including outbreak reporting information between the Members States. In addition to this, the European monthly measles monitoring provides feedback to countries and decision makers with information compiled from multiple sources such as national websites, the EUVAC.NET database, the Early Warning and Response System (EWRS), validated media reports, and personal communication from national authorities. The interval for this report has been upgraded from quarterly to monthly in order to increase timeliness of the information provided.

Atlanta's Theo Ratliff, left, tries to keep Orlando's Tracy McGrady from reaching the basket in the Hawks' 100-84 victory on Monday night.Gregory Smith/AP
ATLANTA - Jason Terry, playing perhaps his final game in Atlanta, scored 23 points as the Hawks extended their winning streak to a season-high four games by defeating the playoff-bound Orlando Magic 100-84 Monday night.
Ira Newble also scored 23 points, setting a career high for the second game in a row as the Hawks played their final home game. They'll miss the playoffs for the fourth straight year.
Tracy McGrady led the Magic with 22 points, even though he didn't play at all in the final period. The loss ensured that Orlando will be the seventh seed in the Eastern Conference playoffs.
Darrell Armstrong missed all eight of his shots, making him 1-of-16 over the last two games. Drew Gooden, coming back from a toe injury, was the only other Orlando player in double figures with 15 points.
Terry is in the final year of his contract. If this was his Atlanta farewell, he went out in style, shooting 9-of-11 from the field - including both 3-point attempts.
Terry also had seven assists and two steals.
Newble, getting more chances to score with Glenn Robinson out, was coming off a 21-point game at Washington in which he scored the winning basket.
This time, the defensive specialist did even better, setting his career mark on a couple of free throws with 1:51 remaining.
The Hawks pulled away in the final five minutes of the third quarter.
Dan Dickau hit three 3-pointers and scored 11 points in the final period.

Does anyone know the final scores/order for the celebs?
Sabrina 58
Apolo/Gilles/Melissa/Shawn 56.5
Emmitt 56
Kirstie 53
Kelly 51.5
I got this ranking off of dial idol by judges scores. If its wrong, don't shoot me, I'm simply the messenger :lol
ETA: They round up on dial idol, but I remembered there was a four way tie with 56.5. I guessed on Kirstie and Kelly.
I had never heard of the song Gangnam Style, so I Googled the video after the team dance. If you've never seen it- it will explain their whole 'concept'. Now that I understand...it was even more hysterical the second (and third) time! LOVED IT! Goofy and fun!!
I thought Melissa, Apolo, and Sabrina's dances were all missing something tonight, but I'm not sure what it was. Melissa's I guess I attribute to her injury and I think Apolo and Karina are missing some chemistry. Sabrina's I just thought was boring. I must take back last night's comment about Shawn doing a rumba because I thought it was beautiful. They had a lot of aerial shots of them dancing and of the back of Shawn's head, so I think I just mentally checked out that it was Shawn and not some blonde sexpot- maybe that's why. Either way I thought it was lovely.
Nice Burn, Tom!
Just watching it here.
I agreed with Len about Derek and Shawn. Nice lines, but no hip action. Carrie Ann was, as usual, off her rocker in her criticism about the "lift." And I thought the ending, with Derek sinking into the dry ice was hokey.
Thanks for the scoring info. Sabrina should not be on top, but I guess she's the only one from yesterday's team dance who didn't get a lower score tonight.
Derek is the bomb...Shawn did great. I love them together, their dance it was beautiful. True, no hip action but so much more! Shawn is fearless with her drops and that jump at the very edge of the platform was downright brave. I love watching them dance, Derek comes up with the best choreo always, he is truly amazing. Words can't describe. He makes Shawn look graceful and smooth and that turning layback was beautifully done. :biglove
I also thought that Apolo was great tonight, he can really dance. But I think he must have a girlfriend he is trying hard not to make jealous because he looks around a lot a the audience and seems to go out of his way not to hang on Karina which for a guy you would think would be hard to do. He either has his hands crossed behind his back or on his hips and stands away from her. It's kind of weird. I think he is great though it's just that someone has stolen his perky personality this time around.
Gangnam style is definitely not for me. I was so glad when that mess was over.
I had never heard of Gangnam style until last week. I'm not sure if I loved it, but it made me smile!

In One Chechen's Humiliation, Questions About Rule of Law
By C. J. CHIVERS
Published: August 30, 2006
The humiliation of Malika Soltayeva, a pregnant Chechen woman suspected of adultery, was ferocious and swift.
Ms. Soltayeva, 23, had been away from home for a month and was reported missing by her family. When she returned, her husband accused her of infidelity and banished her from their apartment. The local authorities found her at her aunt's residence. They said they had a few questions.
What followed was no investigation. In a law enforcement compound in this town in east-central Chechnya, the men who served as Argun's police sheared away her hair and her eyebrows and painted her scalp green, the color associated with Islam. A thumb-thick cross was smeared on her brow.
Ms. Soltayeva, a Muslim, had slept with a Christian Russian serviceman, they said. Her scarlet letter would be an emerald cross. She was forced to confess, ordered to strip, and beaten with wooden rods and hoses on her buttocks, arms, legs, hands, stomach and back.
''Turn and be condemned by Allah,'' one of her tormentors said, demanding that she position herself so he could strike her more squarely.
The torture of Ms. Soltayeva, recorded on a video obtained by The New York Times, and other recent brutish acts and instances of religious policing, raise questions about Chechnya's direction.
Since 2004, the war in Chechnya has tilted sharply in the Kremlin's favor, as open combat with separatists has declined in intensity and frequency. Moscow now administers the republic and fights the remaining insurgency largely through paramilitary forces led by Ramzan A. Kadyrov, the powerful young Chechen premier.
Mr. Kadyrov's public persona is flamboyantly pro-Russian. He praises President Vladimir V. Putin and has pledged to rebuild Chechnya and lead it back to the Kremlin's fold. ''I cannot tell you how great my love for Russia is,'' he said in an interview this year.
But beneath this publicly professed loyalty, some of Chechnya's indigenous security forces -- with their evident anti-Slavic racism, institutionalized brutality, culture of impunity and intolerant interpretation of a pre-medieval Islamic code -- have demonstrated the vicious behavior that Russia has said its latest invasion of Chechnya, in 1999, was supposed to stop.
Human rights groups and Chechen civilians say that these security forces' ambitions and loyalties are uncertain and that their actions are unchecked. The republic's course, they say, is dangerous for Russians and Chechens alike.
Few people have yet compared the current disorder with the end of the brief period of Chechen autonomy, in the late 1990's, when rebels and foreign Islamic mercenaries operated terrorist training camps in the forests, and when Islamic courts sentenced criminals to execution by firing squads, which were broadcast on Chechen television news. But Mr. Kadyrov's police and security forces, known as kadyrovsty, are staffed mostly with uneducated young men, some of whom have been fighting for years, including many former rebels who have changed sides.
Recent videos of their conduct, provided to The New York Times by outraged Chechens, show an unsettling pattern.
One shows a man and a woman in the town of Shali, each married to someone else, who were suspected of flirting in a car this summer. The police swarmed around the couple, jeering at them, and directed the man to kick the woman. The couple was then forced to dance a brief lezginka, a traditional and often sexually charged dance. The police kicked the woman, too, and pulled her scarf and hair.
Although the faces of several of the officers are clear, they have yet to come under investigation by higher authorities.
Another instance of unrestrained behavior occurred in late July in Kurchaloi, when one of Mr. Kadyrov's units killed a rebel, Akhmad Dushayev, and beheaded his body. The severed head was displayed on a pipe in the town's center, residents said in interviews.
Videos show that, later, the kadyrovsty, many in police uniforms, casually amused themselves with the head, joking as they displayed it in a garage. Another video shows the head adorned with a cap and with a cigarette in its mouth.
Residents said the police justified the beheading by saying that Mr. Dushayev had previously cut off the head of a pro-Kremlin Chechen fighter, and that the vengeance was fair play.
Ms. Soltayeva's own experience, much of which was captured on video, was an accumulation of terror, pain and loss.
She was seized March 19, and mocked throughout a torture session that lasted nearly two hours. ''Call for Sergei!'' one of the policemen said, using the name of her assumed lover as he beat her. ''Sergei! Help!''
Next they told her to dress, and drove her to her husband's courtyard and made her dance before her neighbors. ''Look how ugly you are,'' another policeman said.
When she staggered away, several of them kicked her with their heavy black boots. Two days later she miscarried, and has been largely out of public view since.
The episode, which took place five months ago, was not investigated, even though videos showing the torture were passed along on cellphones throughout Argun and other Chechen towns. The videos circulated widely enough that accurate details of her abuse were known by roughly half of the Chechens interviewed by The New York Times.
''It is just outrageous lawlessness,'' Ms. Soltayeva said in an interview in Grozny, Chechnya's capital.

"Thank you, Chairman Boucher. Good morning, Chicago. And good morning, to each of our witnesses.
"On that day, should Comcast and NBC-Universal secure their last approval from federal and state regulators to combine their highly attractive, and lucrative, distribution and video programming assets, a very powerful and influential media and information colossus will be born. If that day comes, this combined entity will have the immediate power to determine what our nation watches, what we read, from where we get our news and, even, on which electronic and communications devices those images and data will appear.
"The $28 billion joint venture between Comcast and NBC-Universal would give Comcast, already the country's largest cable and home broadband company, total say and control over the day-to-day operations of the NBC network; the Telemundo network; NBC's two dozen national cable network channels----including MSNBC, Bravo and CNBC----and partial interests in the Weather Channel, A&E's History and Biography channels; NBC Network News, "The Today Show," "NBC Sunday Night Football," "Meet the Press," and distribution rights to a library of more than 55,000 TV episodes, not to mention the Universal Pictures movie studio and distribution companies.
"Many of the purported benefits of this proposed combination have been framed in terms of when and where subscribers will realize benefits. Some of the more widely touted subscriber benefits, put forward by the two parties, are that Comcast cable TV subscribers will be able to see movies more quickly after the first showings in theaters, or that because of this transaction, TV shows will appear faster on subscribers' cell phones, video-on-demand web sites and other digital media platforms and devices.
"These "whens' and "wheres' are absolutely important. However, I am equally concerned about what cable television, broadcast TV, news, public affairs, religious and community programs, sporting events and movie content that will not be made available to subscribers of Comcast's competitors, or to the competitors of Comcast's new affiliates.
"And, will the same content that is offered to Comcast broadband subscribers, also be made available to all broadband users, regardless of whom they subscribe to for broadband service?
"Despite the critical importance of program access and the equitable carriage of network affiliates on Comcast's cable systems, the most important issue of access, as far as I am concerned, is minority ownership.
"I am cognizant of the commitments that Comcast made publicly, last month, towards increasing diversity of ownership and diversity in programming. Specifically, Comcast's commitments to distribute six cable network channels (over the next three years) and to see that half of those channels are minority-owned or run represents an important and positive, initial step forward towards increased minority ownership.
"But these commitments do not go far enough.
"Minority owners and investors must have better seats at the board room table, not just in the movie theaters wearing 3-D glasses or holding set-top box remote controls in their living rooms.
"If this merger is truly going to be in the public interest, Comcast and NBC-Universal will have to do more, for and with minorities than what they have offered to do to date. Simply put, the economic stakes are high and we, as legislators, would be negligent on behalf of all taxpayers and others whom we represent if we fail to shine a bright light of openness and full disclosure on how Comcast and NBC, on the one hand, secure regulatory support for their own corporate interests without ensuring that their interests are not the only ones served by this transaction.
"I look forward to hearing the testimony of the witnesses. I hope that our hearing will assist me, and others, in learning more about how minority owners of communications, media, and technology companies, minority holders of FCC licenses, minority investors, and non-minority investors willing to invest in minority-owned companies and start-ups can play a bigger role as owners in this mammoth transaction and in the economic opportunities that lie ahead.
"Indeed, more room must be made for these entrepreneurs, investors, and business professionals to provide Comcast's 24 million cable subscribers----about two million of whom are right here in the Chicago metropolitan area----and its 15 million high-speed Internet customers with high quality services, diverse perspectives and "know-how."
"Thank you, Mr. Chairman, for the time you've accorded to me today. With that, I yield back the balance of my time."

Even as all of India is still simmering in the aftermath of the Delhi gang rape, and an increasing number of cases related to harassment, molestation, rape and even death, keep getting more column space and air time, in our publications and social media platforms, and on television, respectively, a few realities faced by Indian women, in the larger picture are yet to find plausible solutions.
Take for example the case of women who've been victims of emotional neglect, matrimonial discord and unhappy family lives, as they yearn to break free and seek peace of mind in a safe, happy set-up outside this stifling environment. It's a scenario that pans across the rich, the middle class and the poor. So, while some of our American and Australian TV portray examples of women living contented lives in blissful surroundings, putting their skills to use, getting on with their routine lives sans the questions, in a positive mindset despite the eventuality of entering into autumn of their lives in solitude, the scene in India's big cities is far from rosy.
This journalist came across a case recently, in Mumbai, of an upper middle-class woman in her late 50s, highly educated, skilled in her profession, who was seeking for space outside an unhappy marriage. Her options, despite being ready to shell out good money for this life, were next to none. This, even in so-called cosmopolitan, free-minded, up-scale Mumbai. She didn't fall in the 'old age' category, nor was she sick and nor was she unskilled. Yet, she was, and continues to hit dead ends with finding a space that was safe, clean and that offered her peace of mind, within or even in the outskirts of the city.
One shuddered to hear her trails that lead to poorly managed homes run by good souls (bless them) on shoestring budgets. These were filled with old aged and ill folk abandoned by their families and loved ones; some living just a stone's throw away.
Most had negligible funding (thanks to low lifetime deposits) and naturally, very basic amenities – the frames you'd recall from grainy documentaries of residents living in homes in far-flung, dusty, tier III towns in the other India. Then, one heard of options like ashrams being explored. These, at times, tend to lean towards spiritual zeal and religious jingoism that can put off the most tolerant of beings. Her search continues. And, as options keep getting ticked off, leaving the familiar security of a known city, for a far-off, unknown abode in the Himalayas, or the like, looms large. And this is a story straight out of 'Modern' India.
One cannot but ask about the futility of all our state-of-the-art hospitals and world-class doctors where we advertise India as an ideal destination for medical tourism on the one hand, but are unable to heal the emotionally sick and downtrodden with proper, safe abodes.
What sort of civil, sensitive society do we live in when such deep, pressing issues at the very core of a woman's freedom to exist, continue to remain unsolved? It might appear like a tiny ripple in what seems like a vast ocean. But sadly, yet another remainder that the woman in India will continue to have to fight the odds and look harder, for what's rightfully hers.

I"m thinking of ordering a pistol from this web site. Has anyone used it and what do you think of the quality of work?
Fingers McGee
July 13, 2010, 10:57 PM
I've got two pistols there being worked over now. I'll let you know when they get back.
Have used his round balls and wads for a couple years. They're good.
July 14, 2010, 12:12 AM
I bought the engraved Pietta 1851 Navy from him last year. The finish he put on the pistol after defraying became splotched along the barrel following the first shooting/cleaning session. I used only hot water and mild soap to clean the barrel. I also noticed that the bluing had faded around the face of the cylinder. He never returned two email messages concerning this issue. Also, the right grip had some noticeable gaps in the fit per Pietta standards. It would have been nice if he had fitted this grip a little better for appearance, but he doesn't mention this kind of service on his gun sales so I just did it myself. Other than that, the pistol shoots well and all other work is nicely done.
July 14, 2010, 12:13 AM
I typed defarbing but the auto spelling correction made it defraying.
July 16, 2010, 02:37 PM
Yours is the first revolver of mine that I have heard about the finish coming off like that. As I told you earlier, I will be more than happy to re-do that finish on the revolver at no charge.
July 18, 2010, 02:56 PM
I appreciate the offer and we must have had a communications glitch. I sent photos to you but never saw a reply,so I will send you photos at the email address at BPStuff.

At this week's Games Market Europe in London (a trade show for members of the videogames industry) Codemasters were showing off an early build of their forthcoming TOCA Race Driver 3 for the PC, Xbox and PlayStation 2. We took a look at all three versions to see how they're shaping up.
TOCA 3 looks to be a bumper pack of racing goodness, with 116 championships, 35 racing classes, 70 fully licensed cars and 98 track variations. Codemasters did a great job with TOCA Racer Driver 2, and they seem to be going one step further with TOCA 3, giving racing fans everything they would ever want in a racing sim. If you want Touring Cars, GT Racing or Rallying, you've got it. Fancy a spin in a Subaru Impreza or a Pontiac Firebird on some of the world's most famous racing circuits with up to 21 cars racing simultaneously? You've got it.
The game is set to offer two main game modes: Pro Career and World Tour. Pro Career mode will give players an in-depth career in a certain racing discipline. Six racing styles will be on offer, with each taking the player through a career, moving from the slower vehicle classes, up to the more powerful vehicles that give the player a better chance of success.
The World Tour mode will give everyone a taste of all the game has to offer, throwing in many racing styles, and moving things forward with a dramatic storyline told through cutscenes. Codemasters claim that this will be a significant improvement over the story mode seen in TOCA Race Driver 2, which was met with some criticism due to its clichèd and rather stereotypical storyline and characters.
While we weren't able to see everything that Codemasters are cramming into the game, we did take a look at the Touring cars and the new and improved Rally racing. Touring car racing is just as good as it was in the previous game, delivering the bumper-to-bumper racing action that the sport is renowned for. However, the AI demonstrated some rather brutal driving skills, often tailgating a little too closely, clipping my backend as I turned into corners, causing plenty of unrecoverable skids that effectively ended my races. While it's nice to see some aggressive driving from the AI, hopefully Codemasters will tech them about racing etiquette before the game's 2006 release.
TOCA Race Driver 2 offered many different racing disciplines, and while most were great, Rally Driving didn't feel quite right. Thankfully, even in this early build (the game isn't due until Q1 2006) Rally driving is a far more enjoyable experience. Racing on a half tarmac, half dirt track in a Subaru Impreza proved to be a lot of fun, and left me wanting more. Frequent return visits to the Codemasters booth quenched my thirst, but we'll have to wait for a more complete build before we can really get into it.
All three versions of the game are looking great, but the PC and Xbox versions currently have a level of polish that is missing from the PlayStation 2 version. Lighting effects are solid on all versions, but there is a roughness to the PlayStation 2 game that is absent in the other two - as was the case with TOCA Race Driver 2. Even with many months of development time left on the project, the frame rate was solid, with the PlayStation 2 version suffering from some minor hitches when a lot of cars were on screen, but nothing that can't be sorted before its release. TOCA Race Driver 2 had an excellent damage modelling system and this remains solid in the latest game, with body parts (car, not human) flying across the track after heavy pile ups. With our short time with the game it was hard to see if this has seen any real changes since TOCA 2, but we'll bring you more details in future previews.
There's still a lot to be revealed about TOCA 3 though. The multiplayer modes and the number of online players supported in each version are still rather hush hush, but we assume that all the standard racing modes will be in there. TOCA Race Driver 2 supported 12 players online, so Codemasters may well be trying to beat that number this time around. We'll bring you more coverage of TOCA Race Driver 3 later in the year.

Coral Drift Rose Tree
- Description
- Shipping
- Reviews
Massive, Colorful Blooms
Mounds of vibrant color cover the unusual ball-shaped form of the Coral Drift Rose Tree. Masses of blossoms will bring a flush of color to upper levels of the garden for an entire growing season.
The Coral Drift Rose Tree can rise as high as 3 to 4 feet tall. It furnishes the upper story of the garden with gorgeous double roses borne on clusters of up to 15 flowers per stem. The color is a beautiful and bright hue of deep coral shaded with soft peach.
The deep-green foliage is a chic counterpoint to the flowers. The sphere of leaves rises from a single trunk, giving it a topiary feeling that is perfect for patio gardens as well as garden beds. Like all Drift Roses, the foliage of the Coral Drift Rose Tree is resistant to many of the diseases and pests that plague other varieties. It can even stand up to brief periods of dry soil.
Use this repeat bloomer to add color to your container garden. It would also make an interesting anchor for a perennial bed with low-growing plants at its feet. Put a pair at each side of your front entrance for a symmetrical, formal appeal.
You'll find plenty of uses for this versatile rose tree.

Most important subjects for GATE Mechanical Engineering
Normally in Mechanical engineering, we learn different subjects covering complete mechanical engineering and its basics. Undergraduate syllabus or curriculum normally contains subjects like
Machine Design subject mainly requires knowledge of Strength of Materials because while designing any machine component, we need to look for types of loading, calculation of equivalent forces and stresses. So, before studying Machine Design, we need to have sound knowledge of strength of materials. So, in curriculum of any mechanical engineering, Strength of Materials/Mechanics of Solids are covered (in first or second semester) before to that of Machine Design.
Theory of machines (Dynamics) requires knowledge of engineering mechanics to calculate forces on element while in motion and other related theories also.
Heat and Mass Transfer requires knowledge of fluid mechanics for convection mode of heat transfer between solid body and fluid which is in motion as well as for heat exchanger analysis. So, before you study Heat and Mass transfer, you need to first learn aboutFluid mechanics subject.
Refrigeration and Air conditioning requires use of thermodynamics cycles and heat and mass transfer knowledge for understanding the analysis of vapor compression and vapor absorption cycle which are base of any refrigeration and air conditioning. So, Refrigeration and Air conditioning subject is covered after Thermodynamics and Heat and mass transfer subjects.
Thus we can conclude that some of the subjects are unique that do not depend on other subject or its knowledge. These are
- Mechanics of Solids (Strength of Materials + Engineering Mechanics),
- Elements of Mechanical Engineering
- Engineering Graphics
- Engineering thermodynamics,
- Heat and Mass Transfer,
- Fluid Mechanics,
- Theory of Machines/Dynamics of Machines
- Machine Design
- Refrigeration and Air Conditioning
- Heat and Mass Transfer
- Manufacturing Engineering
- Power Plant Engineering
Above all subjects are helpful to get overall aspects of Mechanical Engineering but if you see once again on above subject lists, you will come to know that some subjects are totally dependent on others. These subjects are also very important for GATE examination point of view as well as it can be very helpful while doing final year project in mechanical engineering. The final year will include most of work that deals with basics learning.

Wenger: English exits a 'wake-up call'
Arsene Wenger has admitted the Premier League is no longer at the forefront of European football after Arsenal were the last English side to be bundled out of this season's Champions League.
• Palmer: Signs of revival
• Blog: Hope for next season
Arsenal completed their round of 16 tie with Bayern level 3-3 on aggregate but their 2-0 win in Germany was not enough to secure their passage into the quarter-finals as they joined Manchester United, Manchester City and Chelsea as Premier League casualties in Europe this season.
It will be the first time since the 1995-96 season that no English sides are represented beyond the round of 16 and Wenger believes it is no coincidence that the Premier League has been overpowered in the Champions League.
"It's a massive disappointment for English football," he said. "For a number of years we've not had that. I think it's a massive wake-up call for us. It means the rest of Europe has caught up on us. We have to take that into consideration when we think about the future of the Premier League."
Bayern boss Jupp Heynckes shared Wenger's view, insisting the Premier League has only been placed on a pedestal in England, not the rest of Europe.
"The gap between the Bundesliga and the (English) Premier League is not as big as it has been made out," he said. "The English teams had an unlucky draw, with Manchester United against Real Madrid and Arsenal with us. Arsenal will be back again."
Despite pre-match claims that Wenger had already conceded his side's chances of qualification, the Frenchman insists Arsenal were confident of progressing until the final whistle.
"Of course I'm very proud of the performance of the team," he said. "I think there was room to score (a third goal) and when you look at the game. Tonight you have many regrets about our first game.
"I believe that it was very feasible to knock Bayern out. We got the belief of that when we watched the (first) game again, we had a plan that we respected tonight, it went a bit fast on some occasions, but overall I felt that we had the quality to be there."
Gunners captain Thomas Vermaelen was rested for the match as Kieran Gibbs returned from injury and Lukasz Fabianski replaced Wojciech Szczesny in a number of changes for Arsenal.
Wenger remains uncertain whether Vermaelen will return to the starting line-up for Arsenal's match against Swansea on Saturday, insisting he has the luxury of rotating his defenders.
"I don't want to explain too much," he said. "It's possible yes, I don't know yet. We may rotate a bit at the back and in the midfield as well. We have players like Abou Diaby back so we can rotate a little bit."
Former England international Gary Neville has denied there is any serious concern for Premier League clubs, citing Chelsea's win last season and Liverpool's 2005 glory as prime examples.
"We are not in a strong moment. There is no point denying it," Neville said. "From 2005 to 2012 we had eight or nine finalists, which is a ridiculous success rate when you include semi-finals as well.
"But Barcelona and Real Madrid are stronger, the German teams are stronger, Juventus look like they are getting back to it. It works in cycles. You cannot always be at the top. Maybe we are having a period where we are in a little bit of a dip. But it may change around completely next year or the year after."

Crime Stoppers July 9: Suspects wanted for rash of vehicle break-ins in Pinson area
At least three people are wanted for a rash of car break-ins that occurred in the Pinson area last month. They're also facing an attempted murder charge.
June 2, authorities said the suspects stole a white Mitsubishi Montero from a residence on Prescott Lane.
The next day around 2:30 am, the stolen vehicle and a{}SUV are captured on camera at a location on Summer Crest Drive in Pinson.
"At that time, you see an unknown suspect walk up to a driveway and casually check vehicles," said Jefferson County Sgt. Brian Allison. "They basically go and check the locks to see what's open and commit burglaries of opportunity by going into these vehicles and taking what they can."
Sgt. Allison said the stolen vehicle was later spotted on Pine Crest Road, and a police chase began. The suspect jumped out of the vehicle, and it crashed into a fence. The suspect was able to escape from authorities.
Several weeks later, Sgt. Allison said the suspects stole a weapon from a vehicle: "A homeowner noticed somebody breaking into his vehicle in his driveway. He{}went outside and fired a shot at the suspects. Using a stolen handgun that they had stolen earlier in the evening, they returned fire. So not only do we have unlawful breaking and entering of a vehicle, but they're also wanted{}attempted murder. They're stepping up their game consistently."

According to early results of the 2014 Wine Busines Monthly Equipment Survey, 75.4 percent of wineries surveyed are planning on purchasing more tanks in 2014, likely a result of the large 2012 and 2013 harvests, which had a big impact on bulk wine prices and purchases. The full results of the survey will be chronicled in the March 2014 issue of Wine Business Monthly. To get your copy of the issue, subscribe here.
Have you taken the Equipment Survey yet? Your participation helps us, and all our readers, find a better pulse of what's going on in the industry. The survey won't take more than 10 minutes, and all answers are kept completely confidential. Click here to take survey!
From Wine Business Insider,
"Bulk Wine Update: Prices ease as the season progresses, tanks fill up"
After two years of extremely high bulk wine prices resulting from small harvests, prices are taking a dramatic drop. The large harvest of 2012, and the expected harvest of 2013, have created high inventory levels of bulk wine, and there just isn't enough tank space to hold it. Prices have fallen accordingly, especially for late season buyers, and many are looking to sell the wine for a smaller price just to get it off their hands. This was the general consensus on the "State of Supply & Processing" Panel at the Wine Industry Financial Symposium.
"It seems like when we need the fruit we're unable to get it. Growers and wineries are open to increasing yield supply with various different growing techniques and it is changing what is happening in vineyard, when it comes to water, fertilizer, pruning and spacing," said Hugh Reimers, executive vice president and chief operating officer for Jackson Family Wines.
"Most of the bulk storage facilities are full, wineries are full, very tight, and we're seeing people make interesting decisions. We've had people say 'I really want to buy bulk wine but I don't have a tank to put it in.' and that's a challenge because that's a buyer and we'd like to sell them something, especially in this market," said Proctor. "I think basically the thought we have as we look at this bulk market in the near-term is that the 2013 crop and ensuing bulk wine it's going to produce is going to have some destructing effects on the marketplace for bulk. The question is, is that going to have a long term effect on grapes? I think that's hard to understand and it may just be more of a near-term effect versus a long term effect."
It's the spot grape purchases that have slowed as a result of the shortage in available tank space as well, and it's in this market that you'll see most of the pricing go down, according to Steve Fredericks, president at Turrentine Wine Brokerage. Prices have eased from preseason levels, and in some cases dropped $4,000 per ton.

Here is the location of the filter.
The fuel filter is located on the underbody at the forward edge of the right-side of the fuel tank.
It is possible that the fuel filter may be restricted enough to cause a problem with starving the engine for fuel, however it is much more common that the fuel pump itself may be failing. The only true way to verify this, is to pull the filter and inspect it for flow, and run a fuel pressure test on the fuel pump.
INSTALLATION NOTE: Plastic retainers must be replaced when fuel lines are disassembled. Install new retainer into female cavity. Care must be taken to assure that the locking tab is centered in the window of the female cavity. Firmly press tile female connection onto the male end until a click is heard, then pull back to confirm engagement.
I hope this information helps
Take Care
The instructions I sent, simply explain the safety procedures to remove the system pressure prior to removing the filter to avoid a high pressure spray of fuel during replacement.
After the new filter is installed, simply turning on the key as explained, will re-pressurize the system as the fuel pump turns on.

Decoding Classical Music
For generations of
classical music lovers, a "K"-numbered work has come to mean Wolfgang Amadeus
Mozart, but where did that "K" come from? It stands for educator and scientist
Ludwig Kchel (1800-77), who took up residence in Salzburg, Austria
(where Mozart had been born a century before). Here he made mineralogy indexes,
categorized botanical specimens and discovered that Mozart's works were in a
state of chaos: The scores were undated and unnumbered, amounting to an
undifferentiated mass of symphonies, operas, concertos, sonatas and so forth.
How, Kchel wondered, could Mozart's works be properly studied by posterity in
this jumble?
They could not. Thus he
undertook a heroic task: putting this repository of musical masterpieces in
order, doing so by retracing Mozart's steps throughout Europe
and becoming an expert on Mozart's handwriting by following the paper trail of
correspondence he left behind. In 1862, Kchel produced a list of 626 works,
from a minuet Mozart composed when he was 5 years old (K. 1) to the great
Requiem mass he left unfinished when he died (K. 626). Kchel continued his
work for the remainder of his life, collaborating with Johannes Brahms and
others in eventually publishing a complete edition of Mozart's works.
Ironically, unlike Mozart's infamously bleak passing, Kchel's funeral was
attended by royalty, accompanied by the music of K. 626.
In particular the
earlier composers (17th-18th centuries) left many compositions to be
authenticated, numbered and dated. The task was surely cut out for scholars who
staked a claim to one or another composer whose works lay all over the European
Austrian musicologist
Otto Deutsch (1883-1967) worked on the sequence of Franz Schubert's
compositions (known by their "D" numbers), many of which were originally
published out of order or never published at all. Anthony van Hoboken
(1887-1983) was the Dutch musicologist who selected Joseph Haydn for his
province (thus the "Hob" numbers). Alessandro Longo (1864-1945) was the Italian
composer who created a near-comprehensive catalog of Domenico Scarlatti's vast
array of sonatas. But Massachusetts-born Ralph Kirkpatrick (1911-84) has given
us the now-standard, authoritative Scarlatti numbering system (seen as "K" or,
so as not to be confused with Kchel, "Kk").
Ludwig van Beethoven and
his successors normally published their works as they composed them (attaching
an "opus number" to each), and in so doing posed few problems for the
catalogers. Thus when Beethoven labeled his "Symphony No. 3 in E-Flat Major (Eroica),
Op. 55," we not only have the work's genre (a symphony), its place among such
works (third), its name ("Eroica" means "Heroic") and its home key (E-flat
major), but also its position in his total official output (his 55th).
Classical music is full of numbers and letters, which can be somewhat off-putting to the uninitiated. But the labors of Kchel, Kirkpatrick, Deutsch, Hoboken and others have actually made coming to grips with the classics far easier for everyone. They were quite often obsessed by the onerous tasks they took upon them, and for this we are eternally indebted to them.

Co-existence works
Jim Linford's Dec. 15 Marin Voice column, "Oysters and wilderness can co-exist at Pt. Reyes," is one of the most sensible commentaries I have read lately and particularly as it relates to the ongoing discussion/debate about oyster farming in Drakes Estero.
The "historic bargain" that Mr. Linford refers to does in fact seem to be a neglected component of this dialogue. It is a dishonor to the men and women who worked to preserve West Marin's agricultural base to trash the bargain now.
Co-existence is possible. It has been demonstrated that it works for decades.
Gary Marsh, San Anselmo
Local planning guidelines
I would like to provide public information from the current Larkspur general plan regarding policies related to potential future changes in land uses on existing developed properties and traffic impacts along East Sir Francis Drake Boulevard.
There have been confusing statements printed in recent editions of the Marin Independent Journal regarding our existing, legally defensible policy documents.
"Larkspur General Plan, Chapter 4, Circulation, "Goal 1: Regard quality of life in Larkspur as more important than mobility of traffic
"Goal 2: Provide safe and efficient local serving transportation facilities and services for the movement of people and goods.
"Goal 3: Ameliorate the impact of traffic on Larkspur's quality of life.
"Goal 4: Improved local or regional transit service should not negatively affect Larkspur.
"The circulation system in Larkspur needs to grow and change with the community. Transportation facilities and services need to respond to changes in the community so long as the circulation changes do not adversely affect the quality of life in the city.
"Therefore, it is important to emphasize that the city's priorities lean toward quality of life where implementation of transportation facilities and services is concerned. It also will be important to make the circulation system as useful and safe as possible, and to have a coordinated program of implementing improvements.
"Policy a: Develop a coordinated system of roads, bike paths, foot paths, public transit, and Transportation Demand Management programs.
"Policy b: Remove hazards from the traffic system.
"Policy c: Except for singly developed single family homes and vacant properties, proposed changes in existing use shall not add traffic to Sir Francis Drake Boulevard."
I hope this is helpful information.
Dan Hillmer, city councilman, larkspur
Mixed messages
Sunday's IJ article, "Park officials say 'no trails targeted for closure'" led me, and I'm sure others, to think good news upon first seeing it.
Funny, it made me think that there were no trails targeted for closure under the new management plan.
The full quote from parks chief Linda Dahl, "No trails are targeted for closure — none."
Upon reading the article however, the following is found: "The plan indicates that some trails will be closed ..." and "... posing restrictions that include shutting wayward trails ..."
Which one is it? This is both misleading and confusing.
Madeleine King, Fairfax
A wide-open process
My view of the process that formed the draft trails open space trails master plan is very different than that of the IJ's (editorial, Dec. 8).
The very public process that defined the development of the plan has been going on for three years. During that time, hikers, equestrians, mountain bikers and all trail users, like my husband and me, were invited to attend several public forums to learn what was going on and to offer our opinion as to what the plan should include.
There may be numerous complaints about the process and the outcome, but clearly Linda Dahl and the county Open Space District did their duty to the citizens of Marin by inviting those who value community responsibility.
Currently, for those who are uninformed, the district is offering walks through all 34 preserves, one at a time, to hear what neighbors and interested open space users want to see as the funds from Measure A become available to manage the open space for an ever-increasing population of users.
Marin's population has doubled since the '60s and anyone who thinks they can just wander off trail or allow their dogs to run loose is fooling themselves into thinking that they would be the only ones out there.
Can you imagine what our open spaces would look like if everyone felt that way?
If critics are misinformed, maybe they should check with a wider group of open space users to check out what they find hard to believe.
Instead of whining about their perceived injustice, maybe they should come to the table with the rest of us and help by working with the process.
I'm a third generation Marin native whose parents owned a local business for over 20 years. They taught me the value of civic involvement by attending meetings and joining government bodies to help make decisions necessary to help Marin grow in a way that would retain the value of this beautiful county we choose to call home.

Washington's failure
According to a report just released by Mother Jones magazine, in the year since Newtown:
174 children have been shot to death with firearms in the United States.
The average age of the victims was 6 years old.
127 of these children died in their own homes, most of the rest in the homes of friends, relatives or neighbors.
60 children died at the hands of their own parents.
72 of the children either pulled the trigger themselves or were shot by another kid; in most of those cases the gun was left unsecured by an adult.
Only four adults were held liable in those 72 deaths.
In the year since Newtown, Congress has not considered, let alone enacted any meaningful gun control legislation.
Carl Diehl, Fairfax
Building in our back yard
Thank you Al Dugan for your Friday Marin Voice that connects all the dots.
Understanding the "blueprint" of Plan Bay Area, shows that the plan by developers/"interested parties" and the Association of Bay Area Governments is nothing more than a profit-driven scheme to turn Marin into an overbuilt urban corridor.
The staggering growth estimates proposed by ABAG are far in excess of historical growth rates, and will place monumental strain on limited resources.
Mark Luce, president of the Association of Bay Area Governments (ABAG), is also a supervisor in Napa County. He had the following statement on his website.
"My first priority is avoiding the need to zone agricultural and watershed land for urban uses. My second priority is to minimize the amount of housing we are zoning for anywhere in Napa as that puts continued pressure on our infrastructure and our rural/urban boundaries."
Given the massive push by ABAG to urbanize and overbuild Marin this is most interesting.
It appears to be a clear case of "Not in my back yard" (NIMBY), but yours is OK.
Luce clearly understands how current overbuilding in Marin, (while completely out of touch with natural population growth and infrastructure), will likely alleviate pressure in his backyard.
Bob Ratto, Novato

Recently I've been thinking it would be fun to host a ladies brunch one Saturday or Sunday morning. Right now I'm only "thinking" about it, but this submission from Milou + Olin Photography may be just the push I need to make it become a reality. This is a styled shoot designed by Madeline Trait and offers some great display ideas as well as some links to some delectable recipes.
The focal point to this brunch display is the gorgeous DIY flower chandelier, made from paper flowers. Isn't it fantastic! Check out all the details and tips from Madeline below…
PIN this post
From Madeline: "It's a perfect time to throw a brunch to celebrate the Spring! By using simple recipes and a creative eye I devised a great way to host so that you can have time to enjoy your guests and not be stuck in the kitchen.
- To start off I rented all my serving ware from Chairs and Cups who specialize in handcrafted wares from American Makers. Then created some DIY decor that you can do ahead of time to really impress your guests.
- Create a focal point with a DIY paper flower chandelier.
- Custom napkins using Lumi's inkodye, a light sensitive dye. You can create initials or easy botanical prints with leaves and other cuttings.
- Create a stunning display with pancakes and fruit! I used a standard pancake recipe to create a towering stack then dusted it with powdered sugar and topped it off with a bit of fruit. It's an easy and effective way to dress up this simple dish. Further fancy it up with lavender infused agave nectar.
- Liven up fresh fruit by placing it on skewers. It's easy access for your guests and adds to your table display. Drizzle them with a balsamic reduction for some added flavor.
- Twisted and baked prosciutto on skewers is another simple addition to the table and this is a perfect complement to fresh fruit.
- Lastly balance it all out with a simple roast dressed up with a red wine reduction and garnished with mint.
- And don't forget cocktails or mock-tails depending on your crowd. We used a lemon and lavender spritzer garnished with raspberries and blueberries to add that final touch.
Now that you have everything you need call your favorite ladies and enjoy the spring weather together at brunch."

Kernel Memory related doubts!!!
Hi guys...
I have some basic questions related to kernel memory,
* What is the difference between Kernel High Memory and Kernel Low Memory?
*What is the difference between Kernel Logical Address and Kernel Virtual Address? Is it dat kernel logical address obtained from kmalloc() provides direct 1-1 mapping so one shud always prefer this option rather than vmalloc()call thier mapping is not always direct???
*Also, is there is anyway where we can specify some region of any IO memory mapped to kernel space as Cacheable and some as Non-Cacheable???
Are these homework questions?

SCOTT JAGOW: Republicans could lose one if not both houses of Congress in next week's midterm elections. At least that's what the polls are suggesting. People are pointing to a few big issues for the change of heart: Iraq, Katrina, gas prices, budget deficits. But Commentator David Frum says there's another, very important issue.
DAVID FRUM: Here's one very important reason for GOP failure that won't be mentioned if the Democrats take Congress: immigration.
Approximately eight million migrants have arrived in the United States since George Bush became President. About half of them illegally.
Americans have ambiguous feelings about this complicated issue, but the Republican rank and file are nearly unanimous: They want the borders controlled.
Republican leaders such as President Bush and Sen. McCain have defied the wishes of their supporters. They've proposed an amnesty in all but name, a substantial increase in permanent legal immigration and a guest worker program.
Anyone who has spent much time around Republican campaigns could feel party enthusiasm plunge as the President pushed his agenda through the summer and early fall.
In a poll conducted just a couple of weeks after the President presented his immigration plan, only 30% of Republicans described themselves as "enthusiastic" about voting in November, as opposed to almost 50% of Democrats.
In the same poll, 54% of Republicans rated their own party's performance as "poor" in standing up for its principles.
It may be true that some of the immigration debate is driven by xenophobia. But it's at least equally true that immigration is the populist face of the debate over inequality.
In the past six years, the top 1% of Americans have done better than the top 5% and the top one-tenth of one percent have done best of all.
Returns on capital are increasing in the United States — just the effect you would expect from a huge increase in the supply of unskilled labor.
Republican voters care intensely about equality and a fair shake in the labor market.
Indeed, the more socio-economically equal a city, county, or state is, the more likely it is to vote Republican. That includes places like the Norfolk-Virginia Beach metropolitan area or St. Charles County Missouri or the whole state of Nebraska.
These Republicans experience the failure to enforce the immigration laws as a monstrous breach of faith by their party leaders. If the polls are right, those party leaders will soon pay a heavy price.
JAGOW: David Frum is a former speechwriter for President Bush and a resident fellow at the American Enterprise Institute.
