Bloomberg Law: Privacy & Data Security brings you single-source access to the expertise of Bloomberg Law's privacy and data security editorial team, contributing practitioners,...
Sept. 23 — The European Union's top court should find that the U.S.-EU Safe Harbor Program, which is relied on by more than 4,000 U.S. companies to transfer personal data from the EU, cannot adequately protect the personal data of EU citizens and is therefore invalid, European Court of Justice Advocate General Yves Bot recommended Sept. 23 in a non-binding advisory opinion.
In particular, EU citizens whose data is transferred to the U.S. may find that their privacy rights are violated because of "mass, indiscriminate surveillance" carried out by U.S. security agencies, and because they lack "effective judicial protection," the ECJ said in a summary of the advocate general's opinion.
However, privacy attorneys told Bloomberg BNA Sept. 23 that the advocate general's opinion misunderstood privacy enforcement in the U.S. and didn't take into account recent changes that reinforce data protection rights.
Brian Hengesbaugh, a partner with Baker & McKenzie LLP in Chicago, who was previously the U.S. Department of Commerce General Counsel's Office lead attorney on the U.S.-EU Safe Harbor Program, said that the advocate general's opinion was "based on old law" and didn't consider recent "revisions and tightening on U.S. policy on surveillance."
It was "so surprising" that a "high court draft opinion would misunderstand the legal context," Hengesbaugh said.
Cédric Burton, of counsel with Wilson Sonsini Goodrich & Rosati in Brussels, said the advocate general's opinion took "a rather strict stand" and didn't sufficiently appreciate differences between the EU and the U.S. in the way privacy is protected, including greater use of self-certification by companies in the U.S.
The advocate general's call to invalidate Safe Harbor is "highly problematic for global companies," Burton said.
Revelations in 2013 by Edward Snowden, a former employee of a U.S. contractor, about the scope of U.S. National Security Agency surveillance called into question for some in the EU the European Commission's 2000 ruling that the U.S.-EU Safe Harbor Program, which allows companies to transfer personal data outside the European Economic Area if they self-certify their compliance with privacy principles similar to those found in the EU Data Protection Directive (95/46/EC), provides adequate privacy protection for personal data.
In the present case, the Irish High Court in June 2014 asked the ECJ to weigh in on whether Ireland's Office of the Data Protection Commissioner is obligated to investigate allegations by Austrian law student Max Schrems that Facebook Inc.'s Irish operations unlawfully handed over personal data to U.S. government officials.
On the question posed by Ireland's High Court, the advocate general said that national data protection authorities could step in when the privacy rights of their citizens are at risk, even in cases in which EU-level adequacy findings are in place.
The advocate general said that the independence of DPAs would be compromised if they were "absolutely bound by decisions adopted by the commission," and DPAs could suspend any data transfer in order to safeguard rights "irrespective of the general assessment made by the commission."
In a Sept. 23 statement, Schrems said it was "great to see that the advocate general has used this case to deliver a broad statement on data transfers to third countries and mass surveillance."
The advocate general went beyond the question of the role of DPAs in investigating transfers made under Safe Harbor to question the basis of the arrangement.
In the light of Snowden's revelations, the European Commission, the EU's executive arm, initiated in November 2013 a renegotiation of the U.S.-EU Safe Harbor Program with U.S. authorities.
In June, the commission said that talks on Safe Harbor were being held up by a disagreement on the extent to which U.S. law enforcement and security agencies could access data transferred by companies on national security grounds.
The advocate general's opinion said that the commission had conceded that under Safe Harbor "there is no guarantee that the right of citizens of the Union to protection of their data will be ensured," but had decided that this didn't render Safe Harbor invalid. "I do not share that view," and the commission "ought to have suspended" Safe Harbor in order to protect EU citizens' privacy rights, the advocate general said.
The advocate general added that U.S. mass electronic surveillance of personal data violated the privacy principle of proportionality of the amount of data collected in relation to a legitimate need for the collection, and that there was no independent agency in the U.S. able to monitor breaches of privacy rights by national security agencies.
The opinion said that in assessing the adequacy of data protection in a third country, the commission should consider, as well as that country's legal framework, "the manner in which the protection of personal data is guaranteed in practice," and in case of shortcomings should suspend or adapt any adequacy decision "without delay."
The advocate general's opinion said that the U.S.-EU Safe Harbor Program is also flawed because there are no right for EU citizens "to obtain access to or rectification or erasure of data, or administrative or judicial redress with regard to collection and further processing of their personal data taking place under the United States surveillance programs."
Hengesbaugh said that this right was "anticipated to be added" under the EU-U.S. umbrella agreement on data transfers for law enforcement purposes. This agreement, which sets out a set of minimum rights, has been agreed in principle but awaits implementation of legislation in the U.S. to allow EU citizens to file Privacy Act lawsuits in the U.S. over allegations of government misuse of data.
In commercial contexts, Safe Harbor already "allows data subjects to petition to the Federal Trade Commission for redress," Hengesbaugh said. The FTC is charged with enforcing the U.S.-EU Safe Harbor Program in the U.S.
Burton said that U.S.-EU talks on reinforcing the Safe Harbor Program would "hopefully be enough" to convince the ECJ to reject the advocate general's opinion and issue a "more nuanced" judgment that would allow the program to continue.
A commission official told Bloomberg BNA Sept. 23 that conclusion of the U.S.-EU negotiations to upgrade Safe Harbor was "very close."
Jörg Hladjk, counsel with Hunton & Williams LLP in Brussels, told Bloomberg BNA that the advocate general's opinion might influence the ongoing U.S.-EU Safe Harbor Program negotiation.
The advocate general here focused on the commission's Safe Harbor decision, but the opinion raises the "interesting question of the implications for other data transfer mechanisms," such as binding corporate rules or EU standard contractual clauses, Hladjk said.
If the advocate general considers the data privacy regime in the U.S. inadequate, "that issue will be the same when you look at other data transfer mechanisms," he said.
In most cases ECJ judgments back up the advocate general's opinion, but "there have been cases in which the ECJ did not follow the opinion," Hladjk said.
In April 2014, the ECJ rejected an advocate general's recommended opinion and invalidated the EU Data Retention Directive (2006/24/EC).

- quaint (adjective)
- What does it mean?
- : unusual or different in quality or appearance; especially : pleasingly old-fashioned or unfamiliar
- How do you use it?
- "Ivar had never learned to speak English and his Norwegian was quaint and grave, like the speech of the more old-fashioned people." (Willa Cather, _O, Pioneers!_)
- Are you a word wiz?
At one time, "quaint" had a meaning that we no longer use. What do you think it was?Many years ago, people used "quaint" to mean "expert or skilled." We no longer use "quaint" that way, but that meaning is much closer to the word's origins than is today's common meaning. We trace "quaint" to Anglo-French, the French language used in Medieval England. The Anglo-French word "queinte" meant "clever, expert," and was derived from Latin "cognoscere," meaning "to know." Middle English speakers adopted the Anglo-French word and used it to mean about the same thing. From there it developed the meanings "marked by skillful design" and "marked by beauty or elegance." Eventually it developed the meaning that is most common today, "pleasingly old-fashioned or unfamiliar."

Some major distribution changes are on the horizon as Coronado Brewing plans for its inaugural brew – this Friday – in the company's shiny new 20,000 sq. ft. San Diego production facility.
Company President Rick Chapman confirmed with Brewbound plans to expand into Northern California and Nevada this year. Chapman tells us the Nevada rollout is scheduled to occur in September.
But that's not all. Coronado is also currently in talks with Brown Distributing to expand their current Florida distribution throughout the southern part of the state. Chapman also tells us that wholesaler interviews in Washington, Idaho and Alaska are already scheduled for August and the company plans to launch in those state before the early part of 2013.
Coronado will also be changing wholesalers in New Mexico, leaving National Distributing Company for Premier Distributing Co. And as if that wasn't enough of a shakeup, Chapman said he's also eyeing Colorado and will look to re-launch in Virginia, Georgia and Washington D.C. markets soon.
In May, we paid a visit to the new space to catch up with Chapman. The new location features a 30-barrel brewhouse with six 60-barrel fermentation tanks. Chapman said four 120-barrel fermentation tanks are already on order.
"We can add about 15 more, 120-barrel tanks which would get us to about 50,000 barrels of capacity in this facility," Chapman said.
The new facility will allow the brewery to crank out increased production of its core offerings — Coronado Golden, Orange Ave Wit, Mermaid's Red, Islander Pale Ale and Idiot IPA. It will also allow for an expanded barrel-aging program which Chapman expects to rollout in the spring of 2013.
The expansion project is costing just over $2 million and was financed primarily through reinvested profits and traditional bank loans.
Coronado currently sells 80 percent of its beer in Southern California and grew 60 percent in San Diego each of the last two years.
Watch the full video interview with Chapman above for more on the new brewery and the company's redesigned packaging.

What Makes a Good Sword?
Is it the steel, the geometry, the furniture or the feel? I think it's the sum of all parts that makes a sword inherently good. But let's not forget the balance which is the single most important variable in the construction of any weapon. It's similar to the sails on a sailboat, since it's the sails that determine how smoothly the boat can be handled. More >>

The language of actions
Buenas Noticias: Blog de Jose Antonio Pagola
January 17, 2016
John 2:1-11
The evangelist John doesn't say that Jesus worked "miracles" or "wonders." He calls them "signs" because they are acts that point to something deeper than what our eyes can see. Specifically, the signs that Jesus performs guide us towards him and reveal his saving power.
What happened in Cana in Galilee is the beginning of all the signs. The prototype of those that Jesus would carry out throughout his life. This "transformation of water into wine" suggests the key to understanding the kind of saving transformation that Jesus works and that, in his name, his followers are to offer.
Everything happens in the framework of a wedding, the human feast par excellence, the most expressive symbol of love, the best image in the biblical tradition to evoke the definitive communion of God with human beings. The salvation of Jesus Christ must be experienced and offered by his followers as a feast that gives fullness to human feasts when the latter are empty, "without wine" and without the ability to satisfy our desire for total happiness.
The account suggests something more. Water can only be savored like wine when, following the words of Jesus, it is "taken out" of the six large stone jars used by the Jews for their purifications. The religion of the law written on stone tablets has been exhausted; there is no water capable of purifying human beings. That religion must be liberated by the love and the life that Jesus communicates.
You can't evangelize just any way. Words aren't enough to communicate the transformative power of Jesus; actions are necessary. Evangelizing isn't just speaking, preaching, and teaching, much less judging, threatening, and condemning. It's necessary to update with creative fidelity the signs Jesus used to do to introduce the joy of God by making the hard life of those peasants happier.
Many contemporary people are indifferent to the word of the Church. Our celebrations bore them. They need more warm and friendly signs from the Church to find in Christians Jesus' capacity to alleviate suffering and the hardness of life.
Who would want to hear today what is no longer presented as joyful news, especially if this is done by invoking the gospel in an authoritarian and menacing tone? Jesus Christ is awaited by many as power and an incentive to exist, and a way to live more wisely and joyfully. If they only know a "watered down religion" and can't savor some of the festive joy that Jesus used to spread, many will continue to drift away.

Do you ever have an incredible experience and at the end of the day think to yourself, "Well I certainly wasn't expecting that to happen today!" Those were my exact thoughts a few Sundays ago. Friends, we had, quite possibly, the perfect day! It started out with going to church service and making new friends along the way. Quite literally. Turns out a lovely elderly couple attends the same church and gets on at the same bus stop as ours. Funny right? They informed us the service was going to be a little different because that particular Sunday was the start of the Legal year. Judges and mayors would be attending in full regalia (think wigs and stately apparel). It was such a stately sight and one we will never forget!
After the service we stayed to rub elbows with the big wigs (I TOTALLY get that idiom now!) and had deliciously fancy hors d'oeuvres and drinks. Then we headed to the Manchester Food and Drink Festival with our friends, Sam and Katie. We had pizza and Indian food and ate in the shadow of the Manchester City Council building. Once we were done there, we walked around the area. We ended our time together by going to Cloud 23 for some bread and water because everything else was too pricey. Haha! #thatbudgetlife The bar is on the 23rd floor of Beetham Tower (hence the name) and has glorious views of Manchester.

The IRS today released an advance version of Notice 2017-30 providing 180-day emergency relief for taxable fuel removals from Milwaukee terminals due to the shutdown of the West Shore Pipeline.
Notice 2017-30 [PDF 24 KB] states that, following the expiration of the 180-day emergency relief in the notice, subsequent temporary relief will provide a mechanism for certain claims relating to dyed diesel fuel.
The 180-day emergency relief—for the period beginning on May 3, 2017 and ending on October 30, 2017—provides that section 4081(a) tax will be imposed on the removal of taxable fuel from a terminal rack in Milwaukee into a tank truck or rail car, unless the fuel is entered into a Green Bay terminal within 24 hours and other specified conditions are met. The subsequent temporary relief, relating to dyed diesel, will generally applies the rules of section 4081(e) to certain claims for refund; additional guidance will be published by the IRS.
The IRS and Treasury Department recognize that the 180-day emergency relief is needed for position holders in Milwaukee to have time to adjust sales contracts and business practices and to explore the possibility of increasing bulk transfers via vessel.
Due to the unanticipated permanent shutdown of the West Shore Pipeline that transported refined petroleum products to the northeastern part of Wisconsin, the areas of Green Bay and northeast Wisconsin are expected to have material fuel shortages for a relatively long period of time. The governor of Wisconsin declared energy emergencies. Without access to a pipeline, position holders are currently removing taxable fuel from Milwaukee terminals and transporting it via tank trucks and/or rail cars to terminals in Green Bay for distribution now that the pipeline is permanently shut down.
Tax is imposed on removals of taxable fuel into tank trucks and rail cars under section 4081(a)(1). A second tax would be imposed on removals of the same fuel from terminals in Green Bay into tank trucks or rail cars. Generally, however, no excise tax is imposed on bulk transfers of taxable fuel by vessel.
Section 4081(e) allows position holders in the Green Bay terminals to claim a refund (but not a credit) of the second tax paid (without interest) upon the removal of taxable fuel from the Green Bay terminals. However, there is no mechanism under existing law that permits a refund of the section 4081(a)(1) tax imposed upon removal of taxable fuel from a Milwaukee terminal when that fuel is transported to and entered into a Green Bay terminal, and then removed from the Green Bay terminal as dyed fuel destined for a nontaxable use.

Court decision is not required for registration of a surrogate child born for a single woman. After a series of landmark decisions obliging Birth Registrar Offices to register children born to single women within the frames of a gestational surrogacy program ruled by Russian Courts (suitor's interests were represented by the «Rosjurconsulting»'s lawyers), Russian Birth Registrar Offices started registering unmarried women's children even before any judicial decrees might be taken.
Thus, on the 13th of January 2010 Velikiy Novgorod Birth Registrar Office Department registered a surrogate child born to a single resident of Novgorod Region on the date of appeal. Her interests were represented by the «Rosjurconsulting»'s lawyers who informed the Birth Registrar Office's officials of the law enforcement practice and respective judicial decisions.

I think you might be waiting a while. I have just managed to get the nurglings undercoated and washed this weekend with a packed week ahead.Delete
Looking forwar to seeing what you do with this figure. Like Demi noted I too have one sitting around waiting to be painted. I just need inspiration to paint mine up...ReplyDeleteReplies
The model deserves a quality paintjob. There are so many tiny details that are worth picking out properly. If I cannot get it finished before the end of September I will not be rushing it. I might move on to something more achievable! (:Delete
This sounds like an advert but really isn't - try biostrip. I recently bought a load of old Lotr and Blood Bowl minis that had had paint applied with a trowel and it lifted it right off. So much easier than dettol. http://critfailure.blogspot.co.uk/2015/05/stripperiffic.htmlReplyDeleteReplies

I have been certified through both ACBE and DONA.

By Cyndi Whitwell
Dawn was peeking between the blinds.
How long has it been since I have slept?
Hours, days? No time to think,
Mom is moaning again — give her support,
Encouraging voice in her ear.
The pattern of breathing slowing
as the contraction ebbs.
But the sounds have changed.
Mom is disturbed by the pressure.
Reassure her again — this is normal.
Positions are changed, ice is offered.
The power of pressure builds.
Sounds are different in the room,
More activity is felt
But we are locked in the rhythm of the dance,
Moving ever onward to the feelings.
Suddenly a baby's voice is heard
Above the tears of mom & dad.
Fear & pain have changed to joy outcries.
Another birth, another lost night's sleep,
Another memory to validate
My desire to be a doula.

When I was working on my master's thesis at Columbia University, I did extensive research on the dynamics of "empty-nest syndrome," amongst Indian parents whose children live abroad. Empty-nest syndrome is the name given to a psychological condition that can affect a woman around the time that one or more of her children leave home. [1] For women in their 50s and above in India, the syndrome affects a little more adversely because majority of women from my parents' generation were housewives. They were trained to take care of their homes and families. Most of them took a great deal of pride in what they cooked for their families or the crochet pieces they made for their furniture or the blooming roses in their garden.
But time flies. Children grow up and husbands get more involved with their career. With husbands still busy and kids away, the same women begin to feel redundant. The basic duties and acts that made them feel important their entire lives, in some ways, diminish with age. The children don't need their moms in the ways their mothers would like to be needed. All of a sudden, the women have too much time on their hands and an underutilized brain. And this is when things begin to go downhill. The expectations begin.
Every family is different, and I feel blessed for not facing certain pressures, but I have very dear friends who are constantly emotionally blackmailed about living away from India. Every phone call to India translates into, "You should move back now." Again, this pressure has nothing to do with parental health issues or any tragedies back home (THANK GOD!); it's about the women in the older generation feeling forlorn. But weren't you the ones who sent your children abroad? So why do you call your own children selfish? Why did you teach them to dream or aspire if you wanted to dictate their date of departure and return? Is the guilt of creating "nuclear families" catching up with you now that you are at the receiving end?
I am honestly baffled. In some ways, isn't all this solitude self-invited? Wasn't it my parents generation that adapted the concept of "nuclear families" and held it close to their heart like the sacred testament? Didn't their generation popularize "Hum Do Hamaare Do?" In their youth, they left their families behind in small towns and villages and moved to bigger cities and sometimes countries to find opportunities. Why? Because every generation wants to provide the generation after theirs with the best. They wanted to make a better life for themselves and desired to give the best to their children. And we all express our gratitude for it.
I cannot emphasize enough that I am not blaming anyone here. I am trying to understand the altered outlook of the people, who started the trend of moving away, in search of a break. Why is my age group expected to feel culpable for following in the footsteps of their elders? Aren't we doing what we saw growing up - working towards a good life, so we can provide for the family back home and for our children? The deed remains unchanged, so don't call us avaricious and yourself as the sacrificial goat. If anything, my generation keeps the parents more involved than they ever could with their own families.
At the time when our parents were starting their lives, technology wasn't on their side, so they weren't able to communicate with their families back home for weeks and sometimes months. Lot of people didn't even have telephones at homes while my generation, irrespective of their family's location, talks to them a few times a week. Technology allows being able to see each other too! And enables the ability of being involved in each other's day-to-day activities.
Today, the only difference is that geographic boundaries have dissipated so instead of moving from Bareilly to Mumbai, the move might be from New Delhi to California or London. It's the same action; just a different generation. Don't call it abandonment when we do it and sacrifice when you did it.
More until next time.

Have you heard about the new Apple weapons development contract?
10. spo (Posts: 19; Member since: 25 Apr 2009)
that was a prototype that Apple was working on based on its anti-theft technology it filed for a patent for. It thought someone was trying to steal it. It sent out a GPS signal of it's location then self-destructed to protect the owners data. It's quite brilliant. "Who cares about the seat in my car. I'm just glad I can rest easily knowing that my friends phone numbers, steamy text messages and my Facebook homepage haven't fallen into the wrong hands. It's just a seat; isn't that why we have car insurance anyway?" Go Apple!!

I read an article on MSNBC that said Apple was trying to hide the fact that not only iPhones, but the entire iPod lineup was having these problems, especially the new Shuffles. Although they weren't this severe.

I think it was the influx of text messages and phone calls from his girlfriend panicking because he wasn't answering his phone for 5 minutes. Just another reason not to forget your phone in the car.

"You are very kind indeed, Lord Arranmore," he said. "I can assure you that the money will be most carefully used, and amongst my party, at any rate, we do really appreciate the necessity for going to the root of the matter."
Arranmore's pen went scratching across the paper. He tore out a cheque, and placing it in an envelope, handed it to Brooks.
"I noticed," he remarked, thoughtfully, "that a good many people coming out of the factories hissed my carriage in Medchester last time I was there. I hope they will not consider my cheque as a sign of weakness. But after all," he added, with a smile, "what does it matter? Let us go in to luncheon, Brooks."
Brooks glanced down at his mud-splashed clothes and boots.
"I must really ask you to excuse me," he began, but Arranmore only rang the bell.
"My valet will smarten you up," he said. "Here, Fritz, take Mr. Brooks into my room and look after him, will you. I shall be in the hall when you come down."
As he passed from the dressing-room a few minutes later, Brooks paused for a moment to look up at the wonderful ceiling above the hall. Below, Lord Arranmore was idly knocking about the billiard balls, and all around him was the murmur of pleasant conversation. Brooks drew the envelope from his pocket and glanced at the cheque. He gave a little gasp of astonishment. It was for a thousand pounds.
At luncheon Brooks found himself between Sybil Caroom and Mr. Hennibul. She began to talk to him at once.
"I want to know all about your candidate, Mr. Brooks," she declared. "You can't imagine how pleased I am to have you here. I have had the feeling ever since I came of being shut up in a hostile camp. I am a Radical, you know, and these good people, even my mother, are rabid Conservatives."
Brooks smiled as he unfolded his serviette.
"Well, Henslow isn't exactly an ornamental candidate," he said, "but he is particularly sound and a man with any amount of common-sense. You should come and hear him speak."
"I'd love to," she answered, "but no one would bring me from here. They are all hopeless. Mr. Molyneux there is going to support Mr. Rochester. If I wasn't sure that he'd do more harm than good, I wouldn't let him go. But I don't suppose they'll let you speak, Sydney," she added. "They won't if they've ever heard you."
Molyneux smiled an imperturbable smile.
"Personally," he said, "I should prefer to lend my moral support only, but my fame as an orator is too well known. There is not the least chance that they will let me off."
Sybil looked at Brooks.
"Did you ever hear such conceit?" she remarked, in a pitying tone. "And I don't believe he's ever opened his mouth in the House, except to shout 'Hear, hear'! Besides, he's as nervous as a kitten. Tell me, are you going to return Mr. Henslow?"

Yum! I have never had an official stuffed bell pepper before, but the other day the peppers at the store looked so vibrant I decided to figure out how to stuff them all by myself. The result is this good-looking, easy, and healthy meal- and I have no clue if it is what other stuffed pepper recipes are like.
Red peppers are higher in lots of good stuff- including antioxidants, lycopene, and vitamins A and C than their green counterparts. What could be better than filling them up with some protein, rice, and your favorite salsa and calling it a meal?
This is a great mix n' match candidate. Don't have any scallions on hand? Try red onion. No Rice? Quinoa will do. Or experiement with different types of cheese and verious flavors and colors of salsa. Then go ahead and stuff your face.
"STUFF YOUR FACE" STUFFED RED PEPPERS – serves 4
Make Ahead and Make it Easy
Prepare the peppers up until they are stuffed and keep them covered in foil in the fridge for a few days. When you are ready to make them add the veggie broth mixture to the dish, put the foil back on, and bake as instructed.
- 4 big, round red bell peppers
- 1 cup dried TVP
- 2 cups boiling water
- 2 Tbs soy sauce or tamari
- 1 tsp olive oil
- 1 onion, chopped
- 2 garlic cloves, chopped
- 1 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp pepper
- 1/2 tsp garlic powder
- 1 cup cooked white or brown rice (1/2 cup cooked in 1 cup water)
- 1/2 cup your favorite salsa
- 1/2 cup grated cheese (I like sharp cheddar)
- 1/2 cup sour cream or plain yogurt
- 1/2 cup scallions, chopped
- 1 cup hot water or veggie broth
- 1 Tbs soy sauce or Tamari
How to make it
- First, soak the TVP in the boiling water with 2 Tbs soy sauce or tamari and let it sit.
- Cook the rice if you have not already.
- Cut the top off of each pepper and remove the innards. If the pepper "bowl" wont stand up on its own then use a knife to cut off just enough of the bottom to make a flat surface. Dont worry if there is a hole at the bottom.
- Add the tsp of oil to a skillet and over medium heat saute the garlic, onion, salt, pepper, and garlic powder until onions are soft.
- Using a sieve or a fine mesh colander drain the excess water from the TVP.
- In a large bowl mix together the TVP, onion mixture, rice, salsa, cheese, sour cream or yogurt, and scallions. If you're feelin' it throw some hot sauce into the mix.
- Stuff each pepper with 1/4 of the mixture and stand them all upright in a casserole dish.
- Pour the hot water and remaining soy sauce or tamari in the dish around the peppers.
- Cover the whole thing with foil and bake for 30 minutes.
- Uncover, and using a baster squirt some broth into each pepper.
- Bake, uncovered for another 15-20 minutes.
- Slice each pepper in half and serve open-faced.

It's also backward compatible with 802.11b/g networks (commonly found at Wi-Fi hotspots and in older home routers) as well as 802.11a networks (which has a higher throughput, but more limited range–great for closed office environments).

I used cvscompile which is equivalent to the above and I got the problem;
what happens is that an empty Makefile is created in plugins thus
getting make to bail out with a "no rule to make target all in
plugins". (BTW just adding "all:" in that Makefile solved the
problem, just thought you might like to be aware of the problem though
it's no big deal.)

SURPRISE, Ariz. (AP) The Kanas City Royals have optioned Brandon Finnegan, who became the first player to play in the College World Series and the World Series the same year, to Double-A Northwest Arkansas on Sunday.
The Royals' first-round pick out of TCU last year, will be used as a starter in the minors after pitching out of the Kansas City bullpen last September and in the postseason.
The left-hander yielded a two-run walkoff homer to Courtney Hawkins in a 6-4 loss Saturday to the White Sox. He had an 8.53 ERA in four spring training appearances.
Manager Ned Yost said Finnegan has the stuff to be'' a quality major league pitcher, but I won't pigeonhole him as a starter or reliever.''

LONDON (Reuters) - British footwear retailer Barratts Shoes and film and computer game rental chain Blockbuster both went into administration on Monday, a form of bankruptcy protection, blaming tough trading conditions and threatening over 3,000 jobs.
Many British retailers are still finding the going tough despite signs of economic recovery as inflation continues to outpace wage rises and competition from the Internet intensifies.
Duff & Phelps, the financial advisory and investment banking firm, said it had been appointed as administrator to Barratts, which operates from 75 stores and 23 concessions across the UK, employing 1,035 people.
It is the third time Barratts has gone into administration in four years.
"The company had recently received an offer from an investor to inject 5 million pounds ($8.0 million)... but that offer was withdrawn on the evening of November 8," Duff & Phelps said, adding it was reviewing Barratts' financial position whilst seeking a going concern sale of the business.
"At this stage redundancies and/or store closures cannot be ruled out," it said.
Barratts last went into administration in December 2011, when it traded from 191 stores and 371 concessions. A slimmed-down firm was acquired by its management in the following month.
Last month private equity firm Gordon Brothers Europe, which purchased Blockbuster for an undisclosed sum in March, said it was filing a notice of intention to appoint an administrator to the retailer, which trades from 264 stores and employs 2,000.
On Monday Moorfields Corporate Recovery, the restructuring and insolvency firm, was appointed administrator of TS Operations Limited, which trades as Blockbuster.
"We are pleased to say that there are parties who are interested in parts of the business. Our focus will be to secure a future for as much of the business as possible as well as trying to save jobs before Christmas," it said, adding the firm will continue to trade.

The Dragon Has Two Tongues 3/3 Gwyn Williams, Wynford Vaughan-Thomas
Why is this program not available on DVD. Why has the BBC not produced a good documentary on Welsh History since this came out? In 1985 I remember it well!
10 Comments »
I had forgotten about that programme. I liked the contrast between Wynford Vaughn-Thomas and.. and Glyn. Damn I've forgotten his name!
THanks for linking I will return the compliment
Comment by jams o donnell | March 5, 2009 |
Interesting contrasting views.
Comment by Stonemason. | March 5, 2009 |
Quite right, too. For my money the most important TV series ever made about Welsh history. A 13 part argument about the very historiography of Wales? Nobody would make it today.
Full programme details can be found on the BFI website here.
We should start a campaign to get it released on DVD.
Comment by Adam | March 5, 2009 |
Spot on Adam. WV-T and Gwyn A. Williams present us with two profoundly different views on the social development of contemporary Wales.
This forces the viewer to make critical choices about which view they choose to buy into. It's well overdue for a re-airing – I'm sure that there's
a contemporary audience for programmes of this quality.
Comment by Andrew | October 10, 2012 |
It was a HTV production which may explain its lack of availability on DVD or VHS, unlike Frank Delaney's program on the Celts which you can find anywhere (even in Dodge City).
I believe that Wales's lack of profile in the World is why this masterpiece is hard to get! I say it now and I have said it in the past Until Wales gets out and shout we will just be a funny little country like Albania or Krgistan. Some years ago I wrote to Mike German when he was DFM in Rhodri's first administration about how I thought the new British in Consulate General in Denver had no real material on Wales.
Yes Stonemason that was the great thing about it. Here you had two giants of Welsh culture spouting forth about their view of Welsh history.
Adam I agree lets start a campaign let it begin now.
Comment by Ely Voice | March 5, 2009 |
Brilliant -thanks for bringing it back

Horse hay nets can be handmade, using plastic or nylon twine from hay bales. Twine comes in handy for so many projects and uses.
My photos are not too good (photos updated 1/26/13), as the temperatures here are below zero, and my camera was not cooperating with those temperatures. If we get a break in weather, I will re-take these photos, so you can see the net better.
I found the instructions on how to make these, at EQUISEARCH on-line, but there are other patterns on other sites as well. I found this easy to make as well.

Picking up those brushes again.
I will use the blog to record my creations & the odd occasion I actually do some gaming.
I have always been inspired by the aesthetic side of gaming. Playing on well constructed terrain using excellently painted units is always a joy.

Well, considering the speed with which you're hammering out the Imperial units, the Sudan goals should be comfortably achieved. Unless, that is, you plan MASSIVE forces.ReplyDelete

Work in hand
No more than 3 things on the PAINTING table at once. Nothing new added until something is finished.
PREPARATION work is done when I don't fancy detail painting. Cleaning up, converting, undercoating etc.
PLANNING is expressions of interest or things that have inspired me to be created with no definite timescale as yet.

Trippin' Through the 70s – Chapter Fourteen
Posted by Ó Maolchathaigh on December 5, 2008
Sean could see the carnival lights miles away, as a bright glow. It was like coming up on a small town in the dark. Instead of crowds and barkers and food, however, it was a scene of furious activity. It was the last night of this fair, and the carnival needed to move on. They would be expected in the next town or city the next night. It was bright. The lights were shining in colors, red, yellow, green, white and blue, on every ride, and floodlights mounted on towers on top of trailers lit up the entire field.
The sign on the office trailer read: "Murphy Brothers Mile Long Pleasure Trail." Sean asked about work and they told him to help tear down the small wheel. Sean found the ride foreman and started climbing up and taking the long multicolored fluorescent bulbs out of their sockets, so they wouldn't break. Then each seat had to be removed and lifted onto the truck. After all the lights and seats were off, hydraulics lowered the ride slowly down into the trailer, while Sean and a few others lifted the braces out and away from the ride. After the ride was safely lowered into its trailer, they lifted each heavy brace and tucked it into the other trailer, the one that would carry the individual seats as well. When that was done, the foreman told Sean to ask the office what else he could do. When Sean told the man in the office window the wheel was finished, he looked surprised. "Look over there. See that big generator with the light tower on it? Ask for Duane. He's the electrician. He needs help." Sean trotted off and found Duane. Duane was a short, muscular young man, with short blond hair and a bushy mustache.
"Yeah, OK," he said. Here. Take this speed wrench, and start pulling the wires out of these junction boxes. Leave the ones on this side that go to the generator, but take the ones off the other side. Don't let the wrench touch two poles at the same time. Pull the wires out slow. You don't wanna touch the sides. Got it?" Sean said, "Sure," and went at it.
The wrench was wrapped heavily in black electrical tape. Each wire had a large one-holed lug crimped onto the end. The hole let the lug be dropped over one of the threaded poles in the junction box, and a large hex nut held it in place. Sean dutifully unscrewed the lug nuts, finding that the nut tended to stay in the wrench. When it dropped out sometimes, it fell into the box and Sean had to carefully fish it out without touching the live junction poles. He pulled the wires out carefully, but even though there was still power to each wire, the hole was insulated with a small plastic sleeve, so there wasn't too much danger. Unfortunately, the plastic sleeves had a habit of falling off through repeated handing, and Sean had to move real slow when there was nothing but bare metal to pull the wires through. He did real well for a while, moving from each battered orange junction box to the next as fast as he could. He felt rushed by all the frantic activity around him. Sean pulled a wire slowly through a bare hole, but he slipped and let it touch the side. The wire never made it out. With a nearly blinding flash of giant sparks, the wire welded itself to the hole, and simultaneously the lights went out as Big Bertha, the giant generator, popped its main breaker. Rides still being turned or lowered shut off. There was a sudden dark silence. Sean heard curses. Duane ran over. Sean said, "Touched the side. Sorry." Duane yanked the wire hard, away from the box and ran for the generator. He threw the breaker and that section of midway lit up again, noise blaring from rides and cheers from the workers stuck in the near dark. "Just be careful OK?" "Sure," Sean said, relieved. He thought he'd screwed up badly already. Just after the lights had come back on he'd heard someone yell, "Hey, we got a new electrician." He took each wire off slowly after that. He was no longer in a hurry. Later Duane had him pull the wires, bundles of three one inch copper wires, and a 3/8″ ground wire, into a trailer and coil each one, layering the coils in the truck. Sean could barely lift the hundred-foot-long bundles at first. Usually he pulled the wires over to the truck and threw one end in. From inside he could pull the wires into a neat coil. He spent the night doing that: disconnecting, pulling, coiling, back and forth all over the midway. At the end, the generators, for there were more than one, had to be turned off, and the trailers closed up in preparation for the long drive. Duane paid Sean for the work. Sean turned to go, happy to have picked up some money, but Duane stopped him. "Say, you want to work for us?" "But I shorted out the generator." "No biggie. You're alive, ain't ya?" "Well, yeah." "Well, you want a job or not?" "Yeah, sure."
Sean wasn't sure he really wanted to travel with a carnival. He still wanted to ride his bike to California. This would change everything. However, money was money, and Sean was looking forward to having money to buy food again. "What's it pay?" he asked. Duane told him it was $75 a week. Good enough. Of course, Duane didn't tell him that the carnival kept $15 every week until the season ended. Then he'd get all of that as a bonus. $60 still bought a lot of meals, even at carnival prices, so Sean was happy. If he saved some money, he could resume his trip. Next stop: Minot, North Dakota, home of the world's largest open-pit mine, and proud of it.
"Cocaaaaine. Cocaaaaine. Here boy. Cocaaaaine." After the carnival had reached Minot, and everything was set up again, Sean was relaxing, taking a much deserved rest after the hard electrical work, when he heard that young woman yelling. She was the Snake Girl. The caller, or mike man, played it up to the hilt, saying she'd grown up with snakes, that they were all poisonous and deadly, but only she could handle them. He was pretty funny to listen to. She sat in a trailer full of snakes, handling them, and letting them slide all over her body. Supposedly, they were all highly dangerous, venomous snakes, and people paid a couple dollars to line up and walk through the trailer gawking at her and the snakes, many hoping to see her get bitten. A pretty young woman. Sometimes, instead of being the Snake Girl in some towns, she was Devil Woman, telling her tale of drug abuse, needles and overdoses. It was a living. Right now it was too early for customers, the 'marks' who would flock in, gawking, eating, gambling, throwing balls and darts, riding rides, and generally parting with the most money the carnies could get without giving much in return. Snake Girl was just looking for her dog, a pure white samoyed-husky mix she named cocaine. Sean wasn't sure she was just looking for her dog, because she did know an awful lot about all kinds of drugs. The dog looked wolf-like and fierce, so few people bothered her if the dog was with her.
Sean stepped out of the cable trailer and saw her looking around under everything, still calling for Cocaine. "Interesting name for a dog," he ventured. She stopped. "Yeah, and he'd better turn up soon, or I'm gonna be pissed. You haven't see 'im have you?" "No. I haven't seen 'im at all. Do you need help looking?" "No, no, that's OK. I'll find 'im. Well, I've got to get going. He's got to be around here somewhere. I'll talk to ya later." She never did. She was always with one sharp-looking dude or another, usually tall and decked out in leather hats and vests, so he never got to get to know her like he hoped.
There were other women around, usually local girls would come around. Sean met a Minot girl a few days later. She was pretty cute, and also pretty young, but Sean was feeling lonely out there by himself, so he walked the carnival with her, and then they sat behind a trailer for awhile making out. Man that girl can kiss! Sean thought. After awhile they talked some more and Sean found out she lived nearby with her mom. She came by every day after that, and kissed some more and Sean was really getting excited, but she held him off easily. By the time the carnival was nearly ready to jump, she asked Sean to stay behind.
Sean might've done that, except that he hadn't cut his ties to Baltimore, not just yet. He still wrote to Judy. Judy White was a young hospital technician at the same time Sean was working in the physics lab. They'd stopped seeing each other after Sean told her he loved her. Actually, he didn't, and Judy was smart enough to know that. She told Sean they shouldn't see each other anymore. That was after Sue had told him the same thing. Sean, was, at that point simply interested in sex. He'd been teased to the point of exploding with the Frederick woman, and he was ready. He hadn't really known Judy very long. She was the daughter of a co-worker of Sean's father, who had given her number to him. Sean had been really freaked out when his father had suggested he call some strange woman like that. Maybe his father thought he hadn't had any dates? High school had been a barren time for Sean, but then there had been Kathy, and Sue, and Sharon. What Sean didn't know was that his old roommate had called his parents once, trying to embarrass Sean, and Sean's dad suspected Randy of having the interest in Sean that Randy did. Sean's dad was no dummy either. Sean, well, Sean was still trying to learn social skills, and there was a lot he didn't know about human behavior.
However, Sean had called Judy. He had no idea what a blind date would be like, but he thought it might make his father happy. Judy had turned out to a very good-looking woman, and Sean hadn't regretted it, but he had pushed his luck too soon. It wasn't long after that he lost he virginity with Geri, who wanted a nude model, but Geri was gone, living in a mental ward in Texas. Leah had been great for sex. She and Sean had fucked night and day. Sean sent her a few postcards on his way through Canada, but there had never been more than a sexual relationship, so there wasn't much to say, and she couldn't reply while he was traveling, so he had thought.
He had written a letter to Judy. Now, he could get mail back. Far enough away, she could write back without fear of encouraging the horny bastard. Sean would write often, since he was able to send Judy their schedule and mail could be delivered to the local post office at each town they stopped in. He would tell her about the sideshow fat man, who, behind the trailers, didn't look so fat – in fact, he simply had a ton of loose skin. He would tell her about Snake Girl, and the sleazy mike men who gave money away to entice people to buy junk at inflated prices. "I'm giving away five dollars here. Who wants five dollars?" And they'd give a few people five dollars. And people would stick around and the crowd would grow as more things were given away. And sometimes you could buy something they had with the money they'd given you, plus a few bucks more. It was fun to watch. He would write to her all the time, relishing the replies. It was a connection with home, and he enjoyed that.
Minot Girl wanted him to move in with her and her mom. She was pretty, and pretty young, but it was tempting to Sean. No one had ever seemed to want him before; it had always been the other way around. Working the mines in Minot was not what Sean had in mind, however. He had a lot to see yet, a lot to do. He told her he'd think about it and maybe he'd come back later. She didn't want that. She said he had to come with her now. Sean told her no. He looked for her on jump day, thinking she might try to come along, but he never saw her again.
At least I didn't get her pregnant, he thought as he rode in the cable truck with Duane. Duane didn't ask any questions. Nobody did. Carnies aren't like that. If you want to hide out, a carnival is your best bet. No one rats you out, no one has ever seen you or heard of you. Sean would meet some interesting characters, and the stories they told….

A big, plush, smoky blend of Garnacha (Grenache) and Monastrell. The nose is dominated by smoke, cocoa, incense, and exotic cardamom and clove, but there is a good deal of ripe plum, blueberry and blackberry fruit too, along with touches of cedar, vanilla, tobacco, and black earth. The palate is a pleasingly balanced mix of juicy plum and blackberry, cocoa, tobacco, some gamey/leather notes and more cardamom and clove. The wine is full-bodied, round and mouthfilling, and has medium acidity and tannins to keep things balanced. The finish of black fruit, cocoa, and exotic spice is fairly long

guilty caprese salad: united nations of flavor
I have a confession to make. I'm not sure it's the right one to do, this being an upscale [insert giggle] food blog with upscale food followers (right?) but nonetheless, if anything, I strive to be true to myself and my readers and so here it goes: I go to Costco to shop.
Sometimes. Rarely. But sometimes. On occasions maybe more than I should. But I go. Now, to my defense let me remind you all that I live in South Florida: Plantation to be exact, which is not necessarily your haven of food markets and such. Lightly put, this ain't Santa Monica or Paris, both hosting amazing food markets. When I went to the Symposium for Professional Food Writers at the Greenbrier last April, I met Amelia Saltsman, author of The Santa Monica Farmer's Market Cookbook and I was ready to hop in her suitcase and head home with her. Unfortunately, the closest thing to a food market for me would be Florida City (a 1 1/2 hour trek), and, most definitely on my way down to the Keys I'd make a wonderfully delicious stop there, but, on a day-to-day basis, driving such a distance for my produce wouldn't make much ecological sense anyway, considering I am hauling around in a minivan (at least it's not a huge truck or something). But with words such as organic, sustainable, and slow foods bubbling up to the awareness of the American eater, my Costco confession is not a good thing.
Some culinary folks would be okay with it, even helpful. Rachael Ray has tips on how to make shopping in warehouse stores less daunting. Other's, like Oprah, try and encourage us to shop at our local greenmarket. But seriously, there is something about the size of the place that mesmerizes me (there I going being politically incorrect again). Now, I didn't grow up in this country. As most of you know, I grew up in Venezuela, where, if you wanted bread, you went to the panaderia (bread shop), meat: carniceria (yep, butcher) and fruit, you'd head on to the fruteria (you got this one). Now all of these where situated in the cozy neighborhood of Chacao, a bustling maze of streets in Caracas filled with pedestrians, businesses and cars. It was a five minute walk from my house, and I would usually make the trip with my nanny, Yoli, and our steady rolling iron basket with dune buggy wheels imported from Spain. It was an afternoon of schmoozing with the neighbors, tasting samples of papaya, and picking up some unplanned sweet rolls merely because the had just left the oven and their aroma demanded purchasing.
So flash forward to Plantation, Florida and take pity on me please. It's a lovely place. Serene and green. But nobody walks here. Nobody. In fact, I do believe South Florida, specifically Ft. Lauderdale (which is ten minutes from me) ranked as one of the most dangerous cities for pedestrians. It's car zone here, whether you like it or not. First of all, it's just so damn hot most of the time (I mean, we are in mid October and its 96 degrees outside). People like to be sealed in their cars, a/c blasting, music blaring, shut out from the world, entering and exiting their hermetically sealed universe via garage. So, step out of your suburban home and it would be no surprise to find no one but maybe an occasional aggravated dog walker obligated to be outdoors.
That being said, you can imagine the food situation isn't optimal. Supermarkets abound, and I visit them regularly, so much so that everyone knows me there quite well. And then there is gleamingly large Costco. Now I am not a fan a warehouses in general, but when they are filled with food, I can't help myself. And even as I walk in and am greeted by mountains of empty boxes (which shoppers use to pile on their bought goods (hey, at least no plastic bags, that's good, right?)) I feel a pang of guilt reading what these empty boxes once stored: grapes from Brazil, avocados from Mexico, asparagus from Peru. Once viewed proudly as the United Nations of food, this stuff is deemed bad, bad, bad in the age of locavore, and I should know and do better as a food muse. I should. Except that some of the stuff is lovely. Big and plump and beautifully lovely and it's not just the lighting of the place, I promise, it's the actual stuff.
I am a good person, I am. And if I lived somewhere where I could get a plethora of local grown foods, I'd be the first in line (on my bicycle). But I am geographically challenged you see, and so I slip in here on occasion and go mad buying. Of course, why one person needs a box of 25 croissants is beyond me, but I grab it anyhow. This isn't easy for me you know, and I'm not just talking about pushing the jumbo sized shopping cart and maneuvering through the waves of regulars. The whole experience is filled with conflict as I recall my shopping days in Venezuela and compare them to what I've ended up doing now. It's a sense of failure of sorts, a resigned "this is what happens when you end up in the suburbs" pity bit, until I see the nice granny in the corner giving out samples of lobster spread and I jump with a big "ooh" and rush over to grab five crackers. She gives me a dirty look (proper etiquette assumes you are only supposed to take one) but I figure it's all about excessiveness here, so why the hell not.
I find myself honing in on the tomatoes. I've spotted them from a distance and they look lovely- round and plump and just perfect. It's still October, so, maybe I can convince myself it is a late, late summer crop and thus I can get away with eating them with a clear consience. I know this not to be true but I love tomatoes so. I check the label to see where they've come from: Canada. Close enough, right? We're like brothers, no? I make a mental note to move to California with Amelia and grab the package. As I maneuver around the cheeses I can't resist the gigantic tub of mozzarella, imported straight from Italy. Ah, Italian mozarrrella. Me piace! How can one say no? I've already got the perfect meal in mind: insalata caprese. I'll use my Portuguese olive oil, some of Mark Bitterman's fabulous Kauai Guava Smoked Salt from his lovely store, The Meadow and then I'll top it off with my own home grown basil, born in the USA. Yes, it would be a United Nation's meal at my house (with our own representative present), and somehow the guilt began to ease as I viewed it more of a celebration of flavors meeting from all corners of the world, ending up in my home for one big, happy and tasty ending.

I've had my new glasses for nearly two weeks. The Wife still hasn't noticed. Last night I visited with my dad for a bit. Within 5 minutes he said, "Are those new glasses? They look good." FIVE MINUTES.
I have to believe that my wife is messing with my head at this point. She couldn't possibly not know that they're new. Right?
