The well-established Michael's has recently undergone a radical reinvention at the hands of Miles Thompson, the young chef who used to run Allumette in Echo Park and then left town for a couple of years. Thompson's cooking was always assertively modern, but in the time he was gone from L.A. it became more refined, more clever and more umami-driven. This is food that's cool to look at (in some cases for reasons that are almost subversive), but it isn't so cerebral that it becomes a killjoy. Pure pleasure appears to be the base ingredient in all of Thompson's cooking. Burrata comes lolling in its bowl with tangerine, marinated cauliflower and sour plum, a lovely contrast to the milky cheese. Thompson's arrival at Michael's offers hope that, rather than shut down our venerated institutions, we might honor them by moving steadily forward, keeping the components that are worthy of preservation (in this case, the iconic, irreplaceable glamour of the restaurant's leafy patio) and installing youth and vitality where it's needed. —Besha Rodell

No Budget, No Pay Act of 2013by Former Representative Dave Camp
Posted on 2013-01-23
CAMP. Mr. Speaker, pursuant to House Resolution 39, I call up the
bill (H.R. 325) to ensure the complete and timely payment of the
obligations of the United States Government until May 19, 2013, and for
other purposes, and ask for its immediate consideration.
The Clerk read the title of the bill.
The SPEAKER pro tempore. Pursuant to House Resolution 39, the amendment printed in House Report 113-2 is considered adopted, and the bill, as amended, is considered read.
The text of the bill, as amended, is as follows: H.R. 325 Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America in Congress assembled, SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE.
This Act may be cited as the ``No Budget, No Pay Act of 2013''.
(a) Suspension.--Section 3101(b) of title 31, United States Code, shall not apply for the period beginning on the date of the enactment of this Act and ending on May 18, 2013.
(b) Special Rule Relating to Obligations Issued During Suspension Period.--Effective May 19, 2013, the limitation in section 3101(b) of title 31, United States Code, as increased by section 3101A of such title, is increased to the extent that-- (1) the face amount of obligations issued under chapter 31 of such title and the face amount of obligations whose principal and interest are guaranteed by the United States Government (except guaranteed obligations held by the Secretary of the Treasury) outstanding on May 19, 2013, exceeds (2) the face amount of such obligations outstanding on the date of the enactment of this Act.
An obligation shall not be taken into account under paragraph (1) unless the issuance of such obligation was necessary to fund a commitment incurred by the Federal Government that required payment before May 19, 2013.
(a) Holding Salaries in Escrow.-- (1) In general.--If by April 15, 2013, a House of Congress has not agreed to a concurrent resolution on the budget for fiscal year 2014 pursuant to section 301 of the Congressional Budget Act of 1974, during the period described in paragraph (2) the payroll administrator of that House of Congress shall deposit in an escrow account all payments otherwise required to be made during such period for the compensation of Members of Congress who serve in that House of Congress, and shall release such payments to such Members only upon the expiration of such period.
(2) Period described.--With respect to a House of Congress, the period described in this paragraph is the period which begins on April 16, 2013, and ends on the earlier of-- (A) the day on which the House of Congress agrees to a concurrent resolution on the budget for fiscal year 2014 pursuant to section 301 of the Congressional Budget Act of 1974; or (B) the last day of the One Hundred Thirteenth Congress.
(3) Withholding and remittance of amounts from payments held in escrow.--The payroll administrator shall provide for the same withholding and remittance with respect to a payment deposited in an escrow account under paragraph (1) that would apply to the payment if the payment were not subject to paragraph (1).
(4) Release of amounts at end of the congress.--In order to ensure that this section is carried out in a manner that shall not vary the compensation of Senators or Representatives in violation of the twenty-seventh article of amendment to the Constitution of the United States, the payroll administrator of a House of Congress shall release for payments to Members of that House of Congress any amounts remaining in any escrow account under this section on the last day of the One Hundred Thirteenth Congress.
(5) Role of secretary of the treasury.--The Secretary of the Treasury shall provide the payroll administrators of the Houses of Congress with such assistance as may be necessary to enable the payroll administrators to carry out this section.
(b) Treatment of Delegates as Members.--In this section, the term ``Member'' includes a Delegate or Resident Commissioner to the Congress.
(c) Payroll Administrator Defined.--In this section, the ``payroll administrator'' of a House of Congress means-- (1) in the case of the House of Representatives, the Chief Administrative Officer of the House of Representatives, or an employee of the Office of the Chief Administrative Officer who is designated by the Chief Administrative Officer to carry out this section; and (2) in the case of the Senate, the Secretary of the Senate, or an employee of the Office of the Secretary of the Senate who is designated by the Secretary to carry out this section.
The SPEAKER pro tempore. Debate shall not exceed 1 hour with 40 minutes equally divided and controlled by the chair and ranking minority member of the Committee on Ways and Means and 20 minutes equally divided and controlled by the chair and ranking minority member of the Committee on House Administration.
The gentleman from Michigan (Mr. Camp) and the gentleman from Michigan (Mr. Levin) each will control 20 minutes. The gentlewoman from Michigan (Mrs. Miller) and the gentleman from Pennsylvania (Mr. Brady) each will control 10 minutes.
The Chair recognizes the gentleman from Michigan (Mr. Camp).
General Leave Mr. CAMP. Mr. Speaker, I ask unanimous consent that all Members have 5 legislative days in which to revise and extend their remarks and to include extraneous material on H.R. 325.
The SPEAKER pro tempore. Is there objection to the request of the gentleman from Michigan? There was no objection.
Mr. CAMP. Mr. Speaker, I yield myself such time as I may consume.
Mr. Speaker, I rise today in strong support of H.R. 325, the No Budget, No Pay Act of 2013. This legislation directs Members of the House and Senate to adopt a budget resolution by April 15, 2013. If either body does not adopt a budget resolution by April 15, 2013, Members of that body will have their pay withheld until they pass a budget. It's simple: no budget, no pay. The American people understand that they don't get paid if they don't do their job, and neither should Members of Congress.
In addition, to ensure the complete and timely payment of the obligations of the U.S. Government, this legislation allows Treasury to issue debt between the date of enactment and May 18, 2013. However, Treasury may only issue enough debt necessary to pay bills coming due before May 18. I want to be perfectly clear on this point: this bill does not allow Treasury to run up an unlimited amount of debt between now and May 18.
The debt authorized under this bill must be tied to bills coming due during that timeframe. Further, on May 19, a new debt limit is automatically established.
So that's what this bill does. The larger question is, why are we even talking about the debt and debt limit? Our Nation's debt is not just some abstract number. It has a direct impact [[Page H238]] on American families. During the President's fiscal commission, the Simpson-Bowles Commission, we heard nonpartisan testimony that when the debt is this large in comparison to the economy, it costs the country the equivalent of about 1 million jobs. Think about that. If Washington got its debt and spending under control, then 1 million more Americans would be working today.
And if that wasn't sobering enough, Fitch Ratings recently warned that the failure to come up with a plan for reducing our debt would likely still result in a downgrade of the U.S. credit rating. A lower credit rating is sure to mean higher interest rates. That means higher credit card payments, higher car payments, higher student loans, and certainly higher mortgage payments.
Despite these nonpartisan warnings, the Democrat-controlled Senate has not produced a budget in more than 1,300 days. That's 4 years without a budget. How can we begin to get our debt under control when Democrats won't even produce a budget? This bill is the first step in forcing Democrats to put forward a budget so we can start holding Washington accountable for its out-of-control spending.
Every day, American families have to make decisions about their household finances. They have to adjust their spending to cover a whole host of things: groceries, student loan payments, braces for children, and a replacement for that aging refrigerator. Of course, they can't buy everything they want. Every day, they have to make tough choices.
It's time for Congress--the House and the Senate--to make some tough choices. To be honest, Mr. Speaker, this isn't a tough choice where I come from. Where I grew up, if you didn't do your job, you didn't get paid. It's time for Congress to start living with the same facts of life everyone else in America has to live with. I support the No Budget, No Pay Act because it brings back a bit of accountability and common sense to Washington. I urge my colleagues to join me in passing this bill.
Mr. Speaker, I reserve the balance of my time.

So last night with my usual boredom I was trolling on the internet absent-minded not looking for anything specific ,opening and closing taps and clicking links till one particular page caught my eye. I think it was Ghana the article in relation to which really made me pay attention to it besides i love my homeland and like defending it. It was a site called a dating review and frankly the first two comments i read, i found it to be men who were searching for love and been scammed and were licking their wounds.
It was funny at how most of them had turned all their anger and frustrations on the entire female population of Ghana when the probability that they weren't even scammed by a girl is one hundred percent possible. One particular angry commenter was so pissed that he classified us as trolls and I found it quite hilarious. Each of them had their own unique stories which as absurd as it may sound was really true and i knew i couldn't defend my Ghana. i went on to reply them by telling them to wise up and not send financial aids to people they haven't met but instead invest it in buying my eBook from amazon but my comment was considered a spam as i posted a link to my book. As i laughed out hard about it i had a deep sense of thought over the issue and wanted to address it.
It is hard enough for people to put themselves out there trying to look for love and others taking advantage over it and trolling over their vulnerabilities. Growing up in Ghana I had seen all kinds ,manners and ways most of the Europeans are scammed by young jobless boys posing as ladies with pictures they had picked somewhere and luring this innocent and unsuspecting men fall in what i call internet love. That is when the stories begin,i need money to pay my tuition,i am broke,my laptop is malfunctioning, my phone isn't working correctly and i don't have enough money to fix it. These men who are in love send the money to them as an act of love but o this young boys its stupidity of the sender and the call him 'mugu' which in Nigerian terms means the fool,pretty pathetic right?
These scammers are a good judge of character and personality that they are able to fish pout the old lonely ,rich men who are either divorced or never married and interested in dating an African girl. They keep taking money from 'their clients' as some of them call them and enrich themselves here whilst Mr lover man in Europe is completely in love with a picture. I know most friends I grew up with who took it as a full-time job when it became popular back then and their age mates were making money Out of it.most of my classmates dropped out of schooling trolling through dating websites just to find an old white man to scam. It's no wonder most dating sites are blocked in Ghana.
I must say people enriched their life and lived lavish lifestyle and funny enough it was never a lady behind the desktop. About a few years ago when people started becoming aware that there are scammers from this part of the world,they would like to talk to the girl to really see its a lady they were chatting with to be in the know. I remember having those conversations for one of my classmates who always bought me my favorite African cuisine by the road side when I had no idea he was making money from it.i think he scammed my voice too..lol. Others asked for webcam chats and but yet this boys always found a way to remove any doubt from their client's mind.
It went on and on till finally the reports most of this dating sites were receiving from their scammed members were too much that they had to take Ghana off their site. Which is a disadvantage to my fellow Ghanaian girls who are genuine and have the desire to marry a Caucasian man.and I am truly sad my beloved country had been tarnished in that aspect to the extent that we are being called trolls by a man i wasn't even there when he was scammed.
Yet still scamming and cat fishing is going on in Ghana as this boys have found other ways of using technologies to change their locations and still get unsuspecting people to scam. I find this boys so disrespectful and lazy that even with all the money they had scammed ,they can't make a better life for them themselves and are always desperate when a supposed money is not through.
There are different types of scams going on not only in Ghana but around and the few i had witness make me in the know of a lot of this things from the forged papers claiming a land full of gold to the pictures showing an orphanage and organisation. it's all a whole topic of its own but i just want you all to be on the guard not to be scammed by this guys who scamming is their life,and to those men who due to bad reviews about Ghana as a scam zone you are not giving the young Ghanaian lady a chance,why don't you get to know her when at least she isn't asking for money or help?LOL…..
Like I had stated earlier,always get to know what is really is and who you are really talking to as scamming and cat fishing is real in Ghana ,sadly.

Beyond Words
By Marshall Chapman
Out on the Town
Recently Chris and I had two events to attend in one evening. So out on the town we went.
First stop: a birthday party on the outskirts of Germantown. e invitation read "Peter Nappi" (with an address), which had us thinking Peter Nappi was our host. We soon learned Peter Nappi is a studio/boutique where high quality leather boots and bags are handcrafted in the tradition of an Italian immigrant named Peter Nappi who came to America over a hundred years ago. We also learned the old brick building that houses this establishment had once been a meat-packing plant. The impressive structure sits atop a blu above the Cumberland River with the Nashville skyline looming so close it seems you could reach out and touch it. I'm thinking, "I've lived here forty years. How'd I miss this?"
The party was a birthday celebration for an entertainment lawyer friend. There was a stage set up (with good sound) for any musical guests, a number of whom (like me) were her clients, to perform, should they so desire. Chris and I immediately settled into two comfortable old leather chairs, where we listened to a female singers-songwriter, followed by an eclectic four-sister act. As another group of female musicians entered the building, Chris and I suddenly realized we'd best get moving if we wanted to make our next event. But then, as we said our goodbyes, the birthday girl herself—resplendent in a floor-length, slit-to-the-hip red gown—asked me to sing. "I will if you'll go onstage with me," I replied. So she did. I'd never sung to someone sitting right there beside me, beaming with happiness. It was sweet.
Next stop—a tribute blues jam for Clifford Curry at yet another place I'd never been—Carol Ann's Home Cooking Café on Murfreesboro Road. As Chris and I walked across the parking lot, I began singing along to the music blaring from within: When something is wrong with my bay-ay-bee/something is wrong with me! An elderly patron enjoying a smoke—a picture of sartorial splendor in three-piece pinstriped suit and bowler hat—smiled as we passed by.
So in we went. The man singing "When Something Is Wrong with My Baby" looked like Leon Russell on steroids. The band members turned out to be friends of perennial soul-band leader Jimmy Church. Buzz Cason, who produced some of Cliford Curry's early hits (like "She Shot a Hole in My Soul") presented Curry with an award, then belted out a fine rendition of Big Joe Turner's "Shake, Rattle, and Roll." I was sitting there quenching my thirst with a couple of Yuengling darks when Jimmy Church himself asked me up to sing. I'm thinking. Hell, if I can sing in a former meat-packing plant, why not here? So I got up. On a borrowed electric guitar, I played "I Love Everybody" (with Church accompanying me on bass). The band never missed a beat, and Clifford Curry never stopped smiling. These two scenes could not have been more diametrically opposed . . . yet feel so familiar.
Only in Nashville.

A bank holiday combined with a little bit of sun is guaranteed to draw large numbers of anglers out to the water's edge. And so, when I drove to the canal stretch I am currently fishing, it was no surprise to find that the car park was full. Although I managed to park my car on the road, due to it being quite narrow I had no intention of leaving it there overnight. But as I had arrived there quite late in the day, I knew that the pleasure anglers would be leaving soon.
I didn't have to wait too long before the first one set off for home, allowing me to pull into the space he vacated. As I was there for the night, as long as I could get fishing before dark that was all I desired. As my rods are in a holdall and already made up, complete with rig, it's nothing more than joining the two sections, putting on a boilie, and casting into the water.
I'm fishing off a pod for my canal carp campaign, and due to the restrictions of the towpath, having to push everything as close to the edge as possible. Bite alarms and swingers complete the set-up. It also means that stretching out on the bedchair, I can get some sleep in-between fish. But I don't have the luxury that is usual in these situations though.
Never being too far away from potential snags such as reeds, rushes etc, I keep my boots on and only wrap the bag around me to keep off the chill. It's important that should I doze off (I am usually a very light sleeper when fishing) I can be on the rods very quickly should a fish take the bait. As it is the canal, I am literally right next to the pod anyway, and as I lie on the chair, with just a gentle stretch I can reach out and touch the rods.
Prior to casting out, I baited up a couple of spots with seeds. I didn't put in too many, it was only an overnighter and I do want to get an idea of fish density before I start putting out too much bait. However, I wasn't that cautious as the previous sessions had told me that there are plenty of chub in the stretch, and they will invariably be attracted to any feed that goes into the water. But while I'm not too concerned about overfeeding, I would sooner stay this side of the caution line if possible at the moment.
Although I did manage to doze off a couple of times up to 1.00 a.m., the continual chub activity meant that I was always on the go, one way or another. I was either standing over the rods waiting for the bleeps to develop, or re-casting after yet another fish had taken the bait. But still no carp! By the early hours though even the chub had given up, and I managed to get a spell of the old shut-eye, finally waking as day broke. With a mist covering the water, even the canal can look attractive at first light!
To round the week off I was back on the canal on Friday evening. Various circumstances had conspired against me during the week, meaning that the other session I had planned did not materialise. And as I was travelling to Leeds to see Wolves play the next day, my intention was to fish till midnight. I also decided to pitch up at a new swim, some distance away from my previous sessions, which were all within the same area.
The peg looked very 'carpy' when I had seen it on a previous walk along the canal, and it was one of those spots that you simply know you have to fish a couple of times. Otherwise the fact that you hadn't tapped into the potential would always be on your mind! It is a section where the canal widens out quite a bit and looks like the sort of place where a carp or two should be in residence. Well, there is only way to find out, and so at 7.30 p.m. I cast out, put the rods on the pod and settled back for the evening.
I have made a new batch of boilies to fish with on these canal sessions. It means I now have two different flavours fishing alongside other – the new one and the fruit flavour I started off with. Forgive me for sounding a bit vague – I try to be generally open, but there are some things that have to come under the Angler's Official Secrets Act!
It was a nice evening, the most important feature being that it was dry. The one limitation with general canal fishing is that space is at a premium. Bivvies and shelters are a definite no-go, and in many swims even an umbrella is pushing it. I live in a street of terraced houses, and when they were built a hundred years ago, the motorist was not a factor, hence parking is always a problem. In the same way, when the canals were built, no one took into account the futuristic specimen angler!
As the session wore on there were several larger fish topping in the area, and I was hopeful. However, my boilies remained untouched. With my mind starting to wander more and more towards Elland Road and my visit with Wolves, I packed away a little before midnight and set off back home. As always I did a mental review of the session, and cutting a long story short, I decided that the swim is definitely worth another trip or two before I discard it. You know when you get that hunch that there is something in there somewhere…

Republicans VS. Libertarians
I don't think they have planned this out very well. I'm not a socialist I don't think we should just hand out all the wealth equally. But this country would be a giant shit hole if we let people die in the street. People and kids should be able to see doctors. Children shouldn't have to go hungry. Our country needs education. We have enough research to show that this things make a country not only a better place to live, but more stable and productive. Education lowers the chances for incarceration. Security makes people more likely to get an education. Opportunity creates not only healthy competition but less unemployment and a better society. We know it is cheaper to let sick people see a doctor then making them rush to the ER after it gets real bad. Plus people live healthier more productive lives. Greed is not good!
Not that I disagree with everything Ron Paul has done. I'm a huge fan of freedom of speech. Some times I think the government censors life too much. Also I think the government needs to stay the hell out of our business when it comes to vaccines. I think legislators should have term limits. I think we should reinstate where congress has to proclaim war. We also agree that they should take long enough to read the bill before voting on it. How is that not a law?
I think it is bullshit that he wants to give people money to send their kids to private school but don't want to fix public education. Also my uterus is none of his damn business. And how can any good society be against social security and people having health care? I take it back those fuckers are monsters. When they say live and let live it's just a nice way of saying screw you guys.
Republican politicians suck worse though. They preach about how Jesus is their co-pilot. How they will fight for the people. But by people they mean money and by Jesus they mean hookers. If someone is going to screw me I want them to look me into the eyes. Don't tell me you want smaller government and a free market then make laws on women's bodies and give billions of tax dollars to corporations making record profits. Then turn around and try to convince working people it's what is best for them. Some people aren't blinded by all your I'm a good Christian you can trust me talk and pay attention to what you are actually doing. Don't tell me you're a Christian but we need war and torture. Jesus thought we should help the poor. It was a big part of his life how did you miss this? Jesus never said anything about gay sex being bad! Sorry let me get back on topic
I know I don't always agree with the popular democrat views. Like I own a mini ruger 12 semi-automatic assault rifle among other guns. I thought Osama's pictures should be release in the name of government transparency. I agree that a lot of people on food stamps sell them and use them to buy drugs. I've seen it happen I know they aren't making it up. But drug testing everyone on food stamps would probably still be a bad idea. Plus I'm guessing the majority of people on food stamps aren't on drugs. But just because I don't agree 100% of the time I still don't see how some one could vote for those greedy lunatics.

You're pretty dead on there. Ron Paul is driven by ideology, not greed though.ReplyDelete
I just don't understand how Ron Paul gets grouped in with the GOP. He does believe in, not just smaller, but actually no government. The reason why he can't win the GOP nomination is because socially he's a Libertarian. Socially the GOP is terrified by him. He would decriminalize all victimless crimes ie: weed and all drugs, prostitution, etc. True, he is not greedy at all. He is very frugal. How could you be in Congress and be against government?? What an oxymoron.ReplyDelete
Actually they've made it harder to sell food stamps for anything. They've made it like a pre-paid debit card kind of thing. If you're only getting food stamps, you can only use it on food.ReplyDelete
They still sell them they just go to the store for someone else buy them 50$ worth of groceries on the card and then get paid 25. Or something along those lines.ReplyDelete

In this instance a shady moving company will recognize that you have a great deal on the line and that your move is time delicate for you and the various other parties included. Make certain your get in touch with is clear as well as complete. Respectable companies will place everything on documentation so that information are crystal clear.

The story of a woman who took no for an answer and went on to prove an old society and a male world wrong. Elena looks back at her life, her motifs, her passion.
Elena Lucrezia Cornaro Piscopia (5 June 1646 – 26 July 1684) was an Italian philosopher of noble descent, who was one of the first women to receive an academic degree from a university and in 1678 she became the first woman in the world to receive a Ph.D. degree.
Elena was considered to be an expert musician. In addition to mastering the sciblis of her time—which means she mastered almost the entire body of knowledge—Elena mastered the harpsichord, the clavichord, the harp, and the violin. Her skills were shown by the music that she composed in her lifetime.
She was a member of various academies and was esteemed throughout Europe for her attainments and virtues.

Eat Smart Recipe - White Bean Vegetable Soup
- 1 cup cooked navy beans
- 1 large onion, chopped
- 1 medium sized carrot, chopped
- 2 medium leaves of kale
- 1tsp fresh rosemary
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1 pinch sea salt
- 1 tsp shoyu
(Note: If you use dried navy beans, make sure to cook them with a small post stamp-sized piece of kombu – it will help with digestion. If you use canned beans it is best to buy those that have been cooked with kombu, like the Eden brand.)
- Pour olive oil in a dutch oven pot on medium heat. Saute the onions, mixing until the onion is translucent. Add a pinch of salt, mix, then turn down heat to low. Let the onions simmer on low for about 15 minutes.
- Add carrots, cooked navy beans, and add enough additional water to cover the beans.
- Turn the heat up to medium to bring water to a simmer. And then back down to low heat to cover and let it cook for another 10 minutes.
- Chop kale stems and leaves. Mix in rosemary, sea salt, and chopped kale to the pot.
- Cook until kale leaves soften and brighten in color.
- Add a splash of shoyu (approx. 1 tsp.) to taste.
- Serve and enjoy.

The BUD Slug catcher
Construction of the BUD slug catcher began in March 2004. It was commissioned and put into service in 2006 at a cost of US$46.1 million, inclusive of land pipeline.
The new BUD slug catcher is the centrepiece of all the facilities located at Beachfield, dwarfing its predecessor, the Abyssinia Accumulator station by a factor of five. This major centralized natural gas and condensate processing facility has a design capacity of 3 bcf, and was constructed to process supplies from NGC's 24-, 30- and 36-inch pipelines in one location, and handle 5,000 barrels of condensate.
Built above ground, unlike the older slug catcher which was built below ground, and by that time working below capacity, the BUD slug catcher is supported by microprocessor/PLC controls and control rooms, standby AC electrical power, condensate handling, measurement and pumping equipment.
56-inch-diameter Pipeline
Monitoring and maintenance operations are undertaken for the 56-inch-diameter Cross-Island pipeline facilities, which transport about 850 MMscf/d of gas from LNG shippers, such as bp, BG and NGC for the Atlantic LNG Train IV in Point Fortin. The pipeline has a design capacity of 2.4 BCF and an inlet pressure of 950 psi, but with compression, its capacity can increase to 3 BCF. Put into commercial service in December 2005, this project was completed at a cost of US$260 million.

Although, as I argued in my blog of 5 March (see below), the German army's offensives in the spring of 1918 were always likely to fail, they did enjoy some startling successes. The first few days of both Operation MICHAEL (which began on 21 March) and Operation GEORGETTE (9 April) strained the British army almost to breaking point. More British troops raised the white flag and went into captivity during the two weeks of MICHAEL than during the whole of the war on the Western Front up until then: 75,000, in all. This was less the result of a general loss of morale than a symptom of British defensive tactics being sometimes unable to withstand a German attack which was always extremely violent and sometimes deployed stormtroop tactics to great effect.
One reason commonly put forward, by historians such as Tim Travers and Martin Samuels, for the failure of the British defence was that the BEF was trying, but failing, to put into effect tactics of 'elastic defence-in-depth' which they had cribbed from the Germans. 'Elastic defence-in-depth' (EDID) is a system, echeloned back from a thinly held front line, whereby most of one's strength was held back, out of enemy artillery range, in a series of zones up to ten miles deep, which would operate rather like the crumple zones on a car. When attacked, forward garrisons were to give ground until the enemy, channelled into natural killing zones and disordered by his advance, could be counter-attacked and defeated by reserves manoeuvring up from deep. There is no question that GHQ ordered the BEF to organise their defences along such lines. Nor is there any doubt implementation was patchy and inconsistent, and that, when the Germans struck, many of the new defences were not complete, especially in the sector of the overstretched British Fifth Army.
To some extent, the British failed for a lack of resources: the manpower and material required to develop successive defensive positions in zones deep into the rear simply did not exist. To some extent, however, it is also represented as a conceptual shortcoming: the British, it is argued, never truly understood the idea of EDID, because (implicitly) they were either too dumb to grasp how it was supposed to work, or never possessed the tactical flexibility required to make it do so.
There is, however, a hidden assumption in here: that EDID was the best way of resisting offensives in modern warfare. With hindsight, we know that to be true. But in 1918 it was much less clear. Considerable doctrinal debate was continuing within the German officer corps, where three views of the best way to organise a defence contended. First, there were still a few traditionalists who believed that the morale advantages of holding firmly on to the front line ('crust defence') outweighed the rigidity of such a scheme and its vulnerability to enemy artillery fire. Secondly, there were the adherents of EDID, as outlined above. And there was a third group who, when they talked of 'defence-in-depth', had in mind not an elastic scheme of manoeuvre but a series of tough fixed defences echeloned deep. During the Third Battle of Ypres (July-November 1917), all three had been tried at one stage or another. None proved successful all the time. EDID had proved unable to prevent the 'bite-and-hold' tactics General Plumer used in late September 1917, but the crust defence employed at the Battle of Broodseinde (4 October) was no better at stopping the British. Although Ludendorff ordered an immediate return to EDID, in the mud of the Passchendaele Ridge defences, although deep, became increasingly static. In any case weather, terrain and logistics robbed the British offensive of much more force than any German tactical genius.
In other words, the evidence of the last full-scale battle before spring 1918 was that there was no single defensive panacea on the Western Front (any more than a 'silver bullet' existed for the offence). If the Germans, who after all had several years of defensive experience on the Western Front, couldn't make up their minds, why are we surprised that the British were caught in several minds? EDID was not some self-evident answer which the British were just too dumb to see.
Why, then, does the consensus think EDID was so obviously the solution? The answer begins, as it did in the case I discussed in my blog of 5 March, with the German official historians. To them, manoeuvrists to a man, EDID seemed the only possible way for an emasculated and outnumbered interwar Reichswehr to defend Germany against Poland or, heaven forbid, France.* Therefore, they played up EDID in their studies of the FWW, and so it entered the mainstream. The experience of the Wehrmacht during the Second World War, especially on the Eastern Front (and at least when Hitler wasn't, ironically, insisting on 'no retreat'), reinforced the apparent utility of EDID, and fed directly into US and NATO doctrine for the defence of Western Europe against the Warsaw Pact. So hindsight, and the agenda of the German official historians between the wars, have conspired to make the BEF look dumber than they probably would have done at the time.
* There is a final, intriguing possible hypothesis, which it would take much research to test, if it is possible at all to reconstruct what happened in sufficient detail. The final volume of Der Weltkrieg, Volume XIV, which deals with the events of 1918, was not finally compiled until probably about 1943 or even 1944, by which point Hitler had issued several 'no retreat' orders, in the face of opposition from his generals of the traditional Army. 'No retreat' has similarities with 'crust defence'. Might the emphasis on EDID in the later volumes of the official history represent coded criticism of Hitler from the official historians? After all the Reichsarchiv was closely aligned with the old-school army and, indeed, had intimate ties with the plotters of July 1944….

Review: AN EVENING WITH GEORGE GERSHWIN at MTH Theater
Critics' PicksReviews August 13, 2017 PerformInk Kansas City 0
Pictured: The People's Liberation Big Band of Greater Kansas City. Photo by Tim Scott.
By Abigail Trabue
George Gershwin was a genius. There's really no other way to put it, and yet, that is almost too simple a description for a man whose career — cut short by a brain tumor at 38 — defined a generation of composers, whose songs have been covered by some of the greatest vocalists of any generation, and, to this day, continues to inspire theatrical re-imaginings of his work, most recently the 2015 stage production of AN AMERICAN IN PARIS which recently had its spectacular Kansas City premiere.
So it's no surprise that MTH Theater, a company so committed to celebrating the American Songbook, would gravitate towards Gershwin's work creating an original production by MTH founder George Harter, highlighting Gershwin's short lived life and numerous accomplishments, many of which include his lyricist brother Ira, who's iconic lyrics continue to inspire a generation of actors and storytellers.
AN EVENING WITH GEORGE GERSHWIN, under the direction of Producing Artistic Director Sarah Crawford, is silky smooth, overflowing with Gershwin favorites, and featuring some of the most talented musicians you will see on one stage.
Hosted by Harter, who is so easygoing on stage and has such a charming way of making Gershwin come alive, the evening moves easily between musical numbers and Gershwin history lesson. Vocally, we couldn't have asked for anything more. Lauren Braton, Jacob Aaron Cullum, Molly Hammer, and Justin McCoy are four of the finest vocalists I've seen assembled on a Kansas City stage. They knock us out over and over, song after song, and with four-part harmonies that seem to come out of thin air, they leave you speechless.
Braton makes "Summertime" look easy, and there is nothing easy about "Summertime." If I could have reached out and high-fived her as she left the stage, I would have. She owned that song. McCoy, with his rich baritone, is so easy to watch on stage. His voice is like butter. Someone, please cast him as Javert in Les Miserables. Thank you. Cullum is a young Frank Sinatra on stage, charming and suave, with a hint of trouble. Hammer was born to sing Gershwin, bringing a warmth and sultriness to "Someone to Watch Over Me" that left us all in a trance, although, I must admit pulling the lyrics "as handsome" out of the song was jarring. There is this beautiful build and sadness in "Someone to Watch Over Me" and I couldn't understand the musical choice to stop the emotion spilling forth. It certainly didn't diminish Hammer's vocals, but the alteration was bold enough to change intention and I'm not sure it worked.
The evening undoubtedly belongs to The People's Liberation Big Band Of Greater Kanas City. Under the leadership of the insanely talented Brad Cox, These players are masters of their craft. They bring Gershwin to life in the most incredible way, especially during "Hebrew to Harlem Mashup" and "Rhapsody in Blue," both of which were arranged by Cox for this production.
AN EVENING WITH GEORGE GERSHWIN has all the rhythm, all the style, and all the talent, to remind us why Gershwin's music continues to survive and thrive almost a century later. I appreciate MTH Theater's commitment to keeping the American Songbook front and center, and reminding us why Gershwin truly is S'Wonderful.
AN EVENING WITH GEORGE GERSHWIN runs through August 27th. For more information visit mthkc.com.

Adding Insult to Injury
It isn't even Friday 13th. Today I realized that my eyelashes really are falling out. I thought I noticed thinning but convinced myself that I was spending way too much time in front of my magnifying mirror. Well, in fact, I really am losing them. The left eye has just 3 very fine clumps…maybe 7 eyelashes total. NO! My oncologist said I would lose them but I thought since I still had them at the end of chemo I was home free. The internet articles I just read said you lose them about two weeks after the end of the chemo. That's where I am right now. So, I wonder how much of a 'chin up and slay the dragon attitude' I will keep now? Eyebrows next?

Bitcoin (BTC) Profile/
Bitcoin was created in 2009 by a programmer, or a team of programmers, under the name Satoshi Nakamoto. It was built upon several technologies created in the 20th century, namely Elliptic-curve cryptography, Reusable Proof-of-Work and BitGold. It was the first digital token to effectively implement a distributed ledger that economically incentivizes participation. The value of Bitcoin is based on the principal of Digital Scarcity, as the underlying technology caps the maximum supply of tokens at 21M. Until that cap is reached, Bitcoin's supply is inflationary as the network's maintainers, also known as miners, are rewarded for validating and confirming transactions with newly minted bitcoins. One bitcoin can be divided into one million fractions, or Satoshis, and the effects of supply deflation can be eased by the token's high divisibility. Bitcoin is the largest digital token by market capitalization and its user base has grown significantly over the past two years. Although it was initially intended for peer-to-peer transactions, its purpose has changed. As Bitcoin's popularity increased, so too did transaction fees and confirmation times. For this reason, other digital tokens are preferred for P2P transactions and bitcoin now serves as a store of value or, as some refer to, digital gold. It also serves as a gateway to the digital token economy and the overwhelming majority of digital tokens can be exchanged for bitcoin. Many other popular digital currencies were forked from the Bitcoin protocol, including Dash, Bitcoin Classic, Bitcoin Dark, and, more recently, Bitcoin Cash.

Pets are such a source of happiness. Pet licks and minor scratches may not seem like much. However, what may appear harmless could actually put your's and your kid's life in danger. These animals contain a lot of germs, bacteria, viruses and parasites.
Rabies is a disease, that can be deadly. This is true for both pets and strays. Even bites from cats, can become infected by bacteria. Cat scratch disease is a bacterial infection caused by the scratch from a cat or if the bacteria laden saliva comes in contact with the whites of our eyes or even the mucous membranes of the nose or mouth. Sure the pets may be vaccinated, but its always better to be safe than sorry. Here we put together, some first aid in case of animal bites and licks.
|Types of exposure to animals
|Category I
|Touching, feeding animals, exposure to licks.
|Category II
Exposure due to:
minor scratches or abrasions without bleeding
licks on broken, damaged, punctured or wounded skin
|Category III
|Bites or scratches, contamination with saliva from licks, exposure to bat bites or scratches
Animals that could transmit rabies include dogs, monkeys, foxes, skunks, cattle, wolves, bats, cats, raccoons, foxes, domestic farm animals, squirrels and wild carnivores.
Primary first aid
- If the bite is not bleeding, clean the site with soap and water and run water on it for a couple of minutes. There is no need to go all fancy, simple soap and water will do.
- If there is considerable bleeding, apply enough pressure to the area with a clean bandage, kerchief or any clean cloth that you can lay your hands on. Do this until the bleeeding stops.
- Once you have controlled the bleeding, tap dry the wound and dab a bit of antiseptic or antibiotic cream and cover the site with a cloth or gauze.
- Once you've done the above steps, take the person to the ED or casualty department of a hospital. The child may need ARV (anti rabies) vaccine or maybe a dose of antibiotics to treat infections like cat scratch disease.
All about ARV vaccine
Post-exposure treatment, consists of treating the wound locally, followed by vaccination. This treatment should begin as early as possible especially in animal byte categories II and III. If the animal involved remains healthy throughout an observation period of 10 days after the bite, treatment may be discontinued.
In the case of category I, there is no treatment required. However, in the case of category II and III, immediate vaccination is of utmost importance. In category III, rabies immune globulin neeeds to applied at the site, in addition to performing all the primary first aid tips mentioned above.
In cases where an already ARV vaccinated person comes into possible contact with rabies virus, it is best to get two doses of the vaccine on days 0 and 3 to offer complete immunity
You can still get ARV vaccinated if you have a minor illness like a cold. However, if you suffer from serious diseases like HIV or if your immune system is compromised, then you need to get a professional opinion from a doctor before you get vaccinated.
Schedule of ARV vaccine
- One dose of the vaccine should be administered on days 0, 3, 7, 14 and 30.
- For small children, the vaccination is administered in the thighs.
- For older individuals, vaccination is administed in deltoid region of the upper arm near the shoulders.
Prevention tips
- Train children to stay away from stray animals.
- Do not tease or provoke any animals, even pets.
- Animals should never be disturbed or taunted, especially when they are eating or sleeping.
- Pets must be properly immunized.
First aid for snake bites
In case of snake bite. The following need to be taken into account:
- Have the person lie down with the wound below the heart level.
- Try to keep the person calm and to remain as still as possible. This helps to prevent the rapid spread of venom.
- Cover the wound loosely and remove all obstructions like jewellery, tight clothing etc.
- Remember the description of the snake. You may need to provide accurate description to the medical staff, to establish if the snake was venomous or not.
- Take the victim to the hospital at the earliest. If it was a venomous snake, then the person would need to be given anti-venom injections, otherwise a tetanus injection would do. But that is upto the decision of the doctor.

« A true leader has to have a genuine open-door policy so that his people are not afraid to approach him for any reason»
Are you distant or not easy to be around ? Are you not comfortable with first contacts ?Maybe your are shy or a person with few words. You do not reveal much or you don't build rapport. Are you a good listener ?
Is it hard to answer ? Being approachable means putting others at ease so that they can be at their best. It means initiating rapport, listening, sharing, understanding and comforting. Did you know that approachable leader get more information, know things earlier and can get others to do more things ? People just like to have them around.
If you judge to quick, start listening. Leaders listen without interrupting. They ask clarifying questions. The don't instantly judge. They want to understand. Judgment may come later.
Share more. Are you private ? Leaders share information and get more in return. Confide your thinking on a business issue and invite the response of others.
Ask questions. Be curious. There are not enough «what if» «what are you thinking» Keep probing until you understand what they are trying to tell you.
