Peru - February 2010
A team of 4 people went to Trujillo which is on the coast is 30 metres above sea level. Trujillo has a population of almost 1,000,000 people and is the third biggest city of Peru.
The team :-
• Got to see first hand the work that missionaries Pam & Rich Harknett, are involved in as they equip the local christians in the Word of God for lives of service. The Harknett's are supported by us as a Church and it was a great joy to visit them on the mission field.
• Helped to run a 4 day residential "Kids Camp"
• Held various meetings with young people, women and Church services.
• Visited a women's prison and spoke to some of the prisoners
• Helped with some practical work – Painting and decorating of class rooms at the bible school.
A quote from one of the team members – "We've just returned to Trujillo after our camping expedition. In the end we didn't have to sleep in tents - we had a little house to stay in which was very basic (no loo seat and a cold shower which looked like you'd get out dirtier than when you got in it!) but at least we had somewhere to sit and chat in the evenings and when we had some free time".
Rwanda July 2009 A small team went out to Rwanda from 18th - 31st July 2009 to support the work that Peter and Jenny Andrews are involved in across the troubled country. This was an opportunity to explore areas that we as a Church could get involved in for the future.
The team :-
• Met the sponsored children in their families
• Gave out gifts from containers and luggage
• Visited the impressive Church skills centre for adults
• Took part in church services
• Visited the Rwandan Genocide Museu

His Excellency, Ambassador Stefan Frowein and the EU flag (presumable before 2009)
The European Union has a vast network of "embassies" - officially called Delegations - all over the world. This is how the EU External Action Service describes the network:
The EU maintains diplomatic relations with nearly all countries in the world. It has strategic partnerships with key international players, is deeply engaged with emerging powers around the globe, and has signed bilateral Association Agreements with a number of states in its vicinity. Abroad, the Union is represented by a network of 136 EU Delegations, which have a similar function to those of an embassy.
The EEAS will have a staff of about 5400 - probably many more at a later stage. The budget for this year is about 500 million euros, and it is expected to rise in the future. We are talking about a lot of money - paid for by the European tax payers.
Do we, the tax payers get full value for this rather lavish contribution?
One way to look at it, is to check how an - in this case randomly chosen - EU "embassy" manages to inform us about its work. For this purpose we chose to have a look at the Delegation of the European Union to Bangladesh - with a staff of 50 people, led by Ambassador Stefan Frowein - through its website.
Let´s start with the main page:
The main item seems to be a picture or video (?) under the headline "Climate change, a call to action". Unfortunately there is only an empty white space, so nobody will actually know what this is all about (which actually is a good thing, knowing the EU´s disastrous climate change policy).
Then there is a "What´s new" section which is supposed to offer the people of Bangladesh fresh news about the activities of the Delegation. These are the headlines:
No news after 2009 on the Delegation´s home page!
On the main page you can also find a link to Ambassador Frowein´s speeches.
The newest speech is from 2009:
8th October 2009: The Death Penalty, EU Roundtable, Dhaka
For somebody who visits the webpage of the EU Delegation to Bangladesh, it certainly looks like nothing has happened after 2009. That may be true - and even a good thing! Would it not therefore be time to shut down the 50 person embassy and allow His Excellency, Herrn Dr. Stefan Frowein to retire? That would save us, the European taxpayers, a lot of euros! If the EU Delegation to Bangladesh is at all representative of the other units in the EEAS network, there might be quite a number of other "embassies" to close, too. (This just as a free tip to the EU auditors.)
The website mentioned above is the one that Google gives as the first choice when searching for "EU Delegation Bangladesh". The Delegation appears to have a new, more updated website. But still, one wonders why the European Union is, in spite of its vast number of media and technical experts, not able to remove old outdated websites. (The Delegation even appears to have a new ambassador, Mr. William Hanna - and the staff is now almost 60!). Even with the updated website, one has to ask the question: Do we need an EU "embassy" with a staff of close to 60 diplomats and other employees in Bangladesh? The answer should be clear: NO!
The video missing on the old web page is available on the new page. And it is as awful as could be expected. The EU is doing its best to indoctrinate people in developing countries to falsely believe that floodings and other natural catastrophes are caused by human induced global warming:

Post subject: Holiday Spanking Surprise
What could be more festive than a red, cheery bottom? Not only does it glow so brightly, but it helps keep you warm on cold days like this.
Paul sounded quite smug as he made this comment, but why shouldnt he? He had his beloved Annie draped over his lap, her soft bottom bared and positioned for spanking. He grinned as he squeezed a slightly pink cheek and Annie let out a soft moan of pleasure in response.
Annie for her part was happy to be in that familiar position over Pauls lap. Hed been her boyfriend for several months and Annies spankings were a regular occurrence that they both enjoyed. Spankings for pleasure were her favorite kind and she was pretty sure thats what this spanking was so she relaxed and waited for Paul to continue.
Have you been naughty or nice this year, my sweet? Paul asked as his hand roamed over her bottom.
As nice as can be Annie cooed, sure she was about to be rewarded.
Mmm-hmmm, Paul responded. Are you sure?
For the first time since Paul had grabbed her as she was getting ready for work, she began to wonder if this was going to be as much fun as shed thought. It was early, shed just had her shower and barely had time to put on her panties before hed come into the bedroom, took her by the hand, and led her to his solid armless chair where many of her spankings took place.
To add to the mystery, he hadnt said a word while sitting down, guiding her over his lap, removing her silky panties, and proceeding to give her what she thought had been a few nice warm up spanks.
Well, Ive tried to be nice, Annie replied thoughtfully. Doesnt that count?
Paul chuckled as he got a better grip on her waist with his left hand and returned to spanking Annies bottom. The spanks he delivered were sharp and crisp, making Annie gasp and moan as she ground her hips against his thigh.
Ohhh...ahhhh! she moaned softly as Paul stepped up his pace, spanking her bottom harder and faster.
Then as her toes began drumming the floor and her wiggling increased he knew she was really starting to feel to the burn so he paused to rub her warm, yet only slightly red bottom. It took a lot of spanking to bring a blush to Annies cheeks but Paul was determined to see her bottom glow bright red this morning.
You may have tried to be nice, but I can still see how tight your shoulders are because of the tension youre feeling, Paul said rather sternly. I warned you not to let the stress of the holidays get to you. Remember how we talked about what you could do to avoid that problem?
Yes, and Ive done my best but there always seems to be something new cropping up, Annie replied in a pleading tone. I cant help getting stressed!
Want to tell me exactly what has cropped up to add to your holiday to-do list?
To start with, Ive racked my brain but I still cant come up with any ideas for presents for your parents, your sisters, or your brother! she answered stridently. And then theres that stupid office party this afternoon that Im dreading. I made a fool of myself last year after one too many spiked egg nogs.
I dont want to go but I have to, Annie added with a little pout.
Okay, Ill deal with these little issues one at a time, Paul told her soothingly.
Lifting his hand from her bottom, he reached over, opened the small drawer of the end table nearby, and removed a large, wood hairbrush from inside. He smiled as he tapped the smooth side of the brush against Annies bottom.
For starters, lets talk about my family, Paul said as he gave each of her cheeks a quick spank with the brush.
Ouch! Annie squeaked. What is that?
Thats the hairbrush, dear he replied calmly. Now dont worry about my sisters or brother. Theyre taken care of. Understand?
But, honey Annie started to argue until Paul began delivering a fast series of solid spanks across her bottom with the brush.
Owwww! Okay, okay, ahhhhh! Annie reconsidered her argument as she was reminded how much a hairbrush spanking could sting.
Paul gave her a few more spanks for emphasis then stopped and rubbed her bottom with the smooth side of the brush.
Good girl! Now lets talk about my parents. Paul went on casually, as if it were any other conversation and he wasnt in the middle of spanking his naked girlfriend. I think movie coupons from the mall theater would be a big hit with them. They love spending an afternoon at the movies.
I dont know Annie began, doubt obvious in her voice, before the loud crack of the brush landing on her bottom cut her answer short.
Ow! she yelled as the burning in her bottom became much more important than whatever point she was about to make.
Having stopped her objection, Paul lifted the brush again, landed two spanks on one cheek, and then two on the other. As was his preference, he made sure the two spanks landed on the same spot of the spanked cheek each time. Paul smiled as Annie gasped. She claimed to hate that treatment but since it always got her attention he used it as needed.
Want to keep arguing with me, dearest? he asked, grinning as he lifted the brush again.
No, no, honey, I promise I dont! Annie assured him, the words coming out in a rush. Ohhh! Whatever you say just please stop spanking me with that horrible brush!
Now why would I do that when were just getting to the good stuff? Paul laughed as he turned the brush over and raked the bristles lightly across her twitching bottom.
Ooooh! she gasped, hoping the good stuff was going to be good for her bottom.
Instead Paul went on to the subject she least wanted to discuss while in her position; last years office party.
Is there any chance youre going to repeat last years performance today at this party? he queried, still stroking her bottom with the brush bristles.
Of course, not! Annie exclaimed. Every time I think of last year I cant even think about it without being mortified!
You know, Im not sure youve ever given me the details about that party, Paul said wistfully. Youve said what you did was unspeakable but Id really like to know what it was that was so awful. It couldnt have been too bad; youre still employed there, after all.
It was awful! Beyond awful! I got drunk, flirted with everyone, and I do mean everyone! she paused before taking a deep breath. Then I well I sort of I uhhhh I cant tell you this!
Tell me! he demanded. If you know whats good for your bottom, that is.
With that he began spanking her again using his favorite technique. Two spanks in one spot here, two spanks in another spot there. One spank with that heavy brush was enough to make a poor bottom burn but two repeated like that in the same spot was almost unbearable. The burning sensation across her bottom was increasing with each spank and Annie began wiggling in a vain attempt to avoid the repetitive spanks.
You know you cant avoid this so stop that wiggling, Paul scolded as he got a firmer grip on her. You think what you did was so awful? Then maybe a good hairbrushing is just what you need. Not just for your past behavior but as a reminder to behave yourself today at this party!
Aaaaah! Annie cried out helplessly. No! Please! Owwww! Noooo!
Oh, yes! Paul assured her. Youre getting this spanking and its one youre obviously in need of.
Please! She squealed, frantically pushing at his legs with her hands in an attempt to escape. Stop!
No, he replied calmly.
Okay, okay, okay! she practically screamed. Ill tell you! Just stop! Stop!
No, too late, Paul told her as he continued spanking her. Ill stop when Im ready.
But honey! Annie pleaded. Owwww! Ill tell you!
You were going to tell me anyway so I might as well keep spanking, he informed her assuredly. And I suggest you get a better attitude right now unless you really have no intention of sitting until next year.
Okay! Okay! Im sorry! Im sorry! she gasped.
Really? I wonder what brought that about, he drawled as he slowed the spanking but didnt stop completely. Now spill. What did you do?
Youre oww going to ahhh think Im owwwww awful, Annie replied, trying to put off the inevitable.
No, I wont, Paul assured her, keeping up his slow spanking rhythm. I know you better than that and I love you.
Annie sighed loudly before going limp over his lap.
Well? he demanded as he stopped the spanking and listened intently.
I I sort of ummm went into the copy room She paused, then taking a deep breath she said in a rush, pulled up my skirt, copied my butt about twenty times, then handed out the copies after writing Heres to a Spanking New Year on them.
There was a moment of silence as this revelation sunk in.
You? That was YOU? he asked incredulously. Oh my sweet....
At that point he couldnt go on as he was choking with laughter.
It wasnt funny! Annie insisted, too focused on her own embarrassment to realize what hed just asked. I embarrassed myself in front of everyone. And it didnt end there. I heard copies got passed around the whole building so who knows who saw it!
Ohhh, wheeeew! he gasped breathlessly. My poor, dear Annie. Haaaaahaaaa
Its not funny! she insisted as Paul continued his hearty laughter.
She couldnt believe he was laughing. The most embarrassing moment of her life and he was laughing! If she could have flounced off she would have but he still had a good grip on her and that stupid hairbrush in his hand. She sighed dramatically and waited for him to stop laughing.
Im sorry, sweetie, he gasped finally. But I cant help it. Oh, man, was I right!
Right about what? she demanded, trying to twist around to see his face.
That the woman who did that was the woman for me! Paul replied, landing two good hard swats with the brush to Annies now bright red bottom.
Ow! Annie squeaked as she tried to make sense of this new development. You mean Oh no! You saw that? Seriously?
Come on now, up with you, and with that, Paul helped Annie stand up, and taking her by the hand he led her over to his dresser.
Intrigued Annie let him drag her along but she also took the opportunity to clutch and rub her well spanked bottom.
Stupid hairbrush, she mumbled, then was thankful Paul was too preoccupied to hear her.
Lets see, I think I put it here, he mumbled as he dropped her hand to rifle through the top drawer. Oh yes, here it is!
Annie was so occupied rubbing her bottom with both hands that it took a moment for her to realize what Paul had in his hands. As he unfolded the piece of paper he pulled out of the drawer it began to dawn on her what it was.
Are you kidding me? she demanded.
As Paul turned the paper so she could see it, she knew the only thing that could be brushing brighter than her bottom cheeks were the ones on her face.
Nooooo, she groaned, shaking her head as she recognized the photocopied image of her pantied bottom and her drunken scrawl across the page.
Heres to a Spanking New Year! Paul crowed, pulling Annie into his arms.
Annie was so shocked by his behavior that she didnt know what to say or do.
Thats my gal! he continued. I though it the moment I saw this but I never, ever imagined this was you!
Of course, once I met you I forgot all about my photocopy fantasy woman, he went on, not noticing Annies shocked silence. I didnt think I needed the fantasy once I had you. Why fantasize when you have the real deal under your hand?
Annie, are you okay? he asked finally noticing her look of shock and looking at her with some concern.
You dont mind? she asked slowly. You dont think Im terrible? Everyone has seen my butt! And the spanking thing, too!
My sweet, sensitive, Annie, Paul replied softly, Im glad its you. It had to be you, dont you see?
As Annie shook her head in confusion, Paul went on.
If you hadnt done that and driven me wild with that image I wouldnt have been inspired enough to get out of my cave and go to that crazy New Years Eve Party of Todds where I met your pal, Jenny, and if I hadnt met Jenny then she couldnt have introduced us. See? Your drunken prank led me to you!
As Paul pulled a shocked and amazed Annie into his arms again, he nuzzled her neck while he fondled her throbbing bottom.
Then he whispered into her ear, By the way, dear, your bottom is a very festive holiday red and warm enough to keep you toasty all day long. Just as promised.
Mmm-hmmm, Annie cooed as she realized her good fortune and relaxed into his arms. He didnt care! In fact, she thought smugly, she was his fantasy. Just then Paul reached down to grab a throbbing cheek in each hand for a hearty squeeze. Annie moaned and pushed her naked body firmly against his body.
Heres another promise for you, his voice husky with desire now, his hands roaming over her body. If you think this holiday spanking was good, just wait. Im going to give you that Spanking New Year youve been waiting all year for.
Just do me one favor, Paul requested as he pulled back a little so he could look into her eyes.
Yes, dear, whatever you want, Annie replied airily. The thought of that long awaited New Year spanking had taken over and she was feeling a little heady.
No egg nog and no trips to the copy room! Understood?
Are you sure? Annie asked with a twinkle in her eye. We have a color copier now and with my bright red bottom
Wow, Paul marveled pulling her toward the bed. You must really enjoy that hairbrush. Ready for another round already, my sweet?
Before she could react he gave her a hard swat with his hand and tumbled her into his bed.
Happy Holidays to all and may all your spanking dreams come true!
~~The End~~

Pastel Cats Tutorial
You want to begin by finding a nice flat workplace where you won't have distractions or interruptions while working. We don't want your pet walking over the work area or destroying what you are laying down.
Pastels Information
Pastels are a beautiful medium to use on your projects. I like to use hard and soft pastel sticks as well as pastel pencils for final details. You also have amazing choices when it comes to paper selection or materials you want to draw on. I like a paper or surface with a little grit or roughness for pastels. You don't want a smooth paper for this project.
If you are going to use chalky pastels like the ones I suggest, you will need to buy a workable fixatif and a permanent fixatif. Pastels, like chalk easily rub away and smudge. The workable fixatif will keep the pastels from rubbing off but still lets it be editable. The final fixatif sets your final piece and protects it from smudges. Both of these fixatifs have strong fumes so they should only be used outside or in well ventilated areas. I prefer to give it a quick spray outside in my backyard because the fumes are too strong for me. Just hold the paper 12 to 20 inches away and give a light spray and than let air dry. Do this in stages while you are working on the project.
Start by drawing in your borders. I like to have a 1 inch border around medium size images and a 2 inch border around large size images.
Next it is time to sketch in your image. Lightly use a pencil to sketch in the outline of your image.
Once sketching is complete, you can start filling in your base colors. Find the lightest color in the fur of the animal and cover major areas of the animal with this color. Blend in a few colors of your base until you find the best blend. This is also when I lay down my shadows and shading. All of the fill should be soft and blended, almost smudgy looking.
Once your base colors are down, bring your project outside and spray it with the workable fixatif. Let air dry for 10 minutes or until dry.
Now it is time to work on the eyes. I actually paint in the eye by breaking the pastel into a powder and mixing with water. You can than paint the mixture on with a brush. Practice on a scratch piece of paper first. If you are uncomfortable with this method, you can also draw in the eyes using pastel pencils. This way you will have more control of the pastel.
Once the eyes are done, begin layering small strokes to make the fur. Fur has many different colors in it. Especially cat fur, so make sure you use similar colors and begin to layer it down in small tiny strokes.
Once your portrait is complete, remember to spray it with the fixatif. Let it air dry.
Congrats, you have completed this tutorial.


text: Ive been using Tomato for about six months, currently 1.19. I've recently had more free time to experiment, so far I've got working; bandwidth stats saving to a remote machine via CIFS, a script blocking adservers. QoS is working although not as i expected. I have 4 rules TCP/UDP/ Dst Port: 53/ Highest/ DNS TCP/UDP/ Dst Port: ****/ Highest/ Online Game TCP/ Dst Port: 80,443,21,23/ High /Web FTP SSH TCP/UDP/Port: ****-****/Lowest/ Torrent Default class is lowest. Basically I want Torrents to use the full bandwidth unless traffic matching another rule is present in which case they should take priority. Under basic settings > Outbound Rate/ Limit, if I change lowest to up to 100% it will use the full outbound but browsing is slow so it doesn't seem to let other traffic take priority. Is it possible to have torrents use 100% of the outbound until there is other traffic? Either through QoS or the Script Generator (ive read this is just for LAN/WLAN traffic)

India's Prime Minister Narendra Modi has promised a "strong response" to a car bombing in Kashmir that killed at least 42 troops, with New Delhi calling for "the complete isolation of Pakistan" for harbouring the armed group behind the devastating attack. "We will give a befitting reply," Modi said in a speech on 15 February 2019, soon after he called his security advisers to consider a response to the worst attack on Indian security forces in decades. "Those who committed this heinous act will pay a heavy price. Those who supported it will definitely be punished," he was quoted as saying by the Indian Express newspaper. "If our neighbour thinks it can destabilise India, then it is making a big mistake."
The attack 14 February 2019 was claimed by the Pakistan-based Jaish-e-Mohammad (JeM) soon after a Kashmiri rebel rammed an explosive-laden car into a bus carrying personnel of the Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF). The bombing ratcheted up already hostile tensions between the two South Asian neighbours, which rule parts of Muslim-majority Kashmir while claiming the entire territory as theirs.
Over the decades, Pakistan's civlian leaders have sought a political resolution of the Kashmir problem, while Pakistan's military leaders have sought to resolve matters by the force of arms. By 2016 Pakistan's sivlian government had lost control of security policy, whch was firmly in the hands of the military. The militant uprising and subsequent Indian military crackdown since 1989 killed nearly 70,000 people. Many Kashmiri favor independence from both India and Pakistan.
The Coalition of Civil Society, a local human rights group, reported and drew attention to thousands of mass graves in remote parts of Kashmir and demanded that the government investigate them to make clear who the dead were and how they were killed. The organization also wrote scathing reports on cases of brutality involving some of the hundreds of thousands of Indian troops in the region and highlighted the widespread powers granted to troops posted in the area, which led to a culture of impunity and widespread rights abuses. The Public Safety Act, which applies only in Jammu and Kashmir, permits state authorities to detain persons without charge or judicial review for up to two years without visitation from family members. Police in Jammu and Kashmir allegedly routinely employed arbitrary detention and denied detainees access to lawyers and medical attention.
The troubled Himalayan region was hit by some of the most serious anti-India protests in recent years. On 08 July 2016 the popular 22-year-old Hizbul Mujahideen guerrilla leader, Burhan Muzaffar Wani, who had evaded capture for six years, died fighting Indian troops. The killing of the popular rebel leader triggered protests that left more than 80 people dead and thousands wounded, mostly by government forces firing bullets and shotgun pellets to quell the demonstrations.
Terrorist attacks on India were launched at Poonch and Uri on 11 and 18th of September respectively. Almost 20 Pakistani infiltration attempts had been foiled by the Indian army successfully during 2016. Jaish e- Mohammed masterminded the heavily armed group which attacked the Pathankot Indian Air Force Station on 02 January 2016, killing six Indian security personnel. Pakistani troops along Line of Control (LoC) resorted to unprovoked firing and mortar shelling at various places in Poonch district from time to time since 14 August 2016. Seven militants and a cop were killed in three separate encounters in north Kashmirs Kupwara district 11 September 2016 while two different gunfights also broke out in Poonch district of Jammu region. The Indian Army claimed to have foiled three infiltration bids. India's Uri Brigade was attacked by four Jaish-e-Mohammad fidayeen on September 18, leaving 19 soldiers dead and 24 injured. The Uri attack came as 10 Dogra Regiment was in the process of moving out with the 6th Battalion of the Bihar Regiment replacing it.
Indias army launched surgical strikes 29 September 2016 against suspected militants along the border with Pakistan, while Islamabad rejected the claim, calling it an incident of cross-border firing. The strikes came after an earlier militant attack on an Indian army base in Kashmir that killed 18 soldiers and which Prime Minister Narendra Modi said would not go unpunished. Indias Director General of Military Operations, Ranbir Singh, told a news conference that the strikes were carried out to thwart terrorist teams positioned on launch pads along the disputed Kashmir border. He said that significant casualties were caused to these terrorists and those who try to support them.
On September 27, 2016 India conveyed to current SAARC Chair Nepal that "increasing cross-border terrorist attacks in the region and growing interference in the internal affairs of Member States by one country have created an environment that is not conducive to the successful holding of the 19th SAARC Summit in Islamabad in November 2016." Bangladesh, Bhutan, Afghanistan and Sri Lanka pulled out of the SAARC summit. Afghanistan and Bangladesh also blame Pakistan for supporting terror groups. Host country Pakistan itself postponed the summit, in wake of heightened tensions with India.
Under the 1960 World Bank-mediated Indus Waters Treaty [IWT] between India and Pakistan, Pakistan received exclusive use of waters from the Indus and its westward flowing tributaries, the Jhelum and Chenab, while the Ravi, Beas, and Sutlej rivers were allocated for Indias use. "Blood and water can't flow at the same time," Prime Minister Narendra Modi said on 26 September 2016 during a meeting to review the Indus Water treaty. It was decided that India will "exploit to the maximum" the water of Pakistan-controlled rivers, including Jhelum, as per the water-sharing pact.

Real peace would mean an end to the armys elite status as saviors of the country and possible reductions in its substantial economic power. In twenty years of fighting, Kashmir lost seventy to eighty thousand people, and politically achieved nothing.
At least nine Pakistani and eight Indian civilians had been killed by cross-border shelling in Kashmir during the first week of October 2014, in the heaviest fighting between the two countries in a decade. There had been intermittent exchanges of fire across the LOC since 2008, but none as serious as these. Over 30,000 people on both sides fled their homes. Dismissing war as an option, Pakistan on 10 October 2014 called for immediate diffusion of tensions. "Both countries are aware of each other's capabilities and war was not an option, Pakistan clarified.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi said 10 October 2014 Pakistan has been taught a "befitting lesson" with the Army "shutting their mouth" after guns fell silent along the International border and Line of Control in Kashmir after nine days of heavy exchange of mortar shelling and gunfire. Defense Minister Arun Jaitley warned Pakistan that India will make the cost of its adventurism .unaffordable, while Home Minister Rajnath Singh said he wants Pakistan to understand the reality that times have changed in India.
The Kashmir conflict dates back to 1947 when India and Pakistan gained independence from British colonial rule. Both countries claim the Himalayan region in its entirety. The dispute is blamed for causing two of their three wars and in 1999 again brought the nuclear-armed rivals to the brink of war. Both sides declared a cease-fire on the line of control in 2003. The cease-fire largely held until early August 2013 when skirmishes broke out over the killing of five Indian soldiers in a remote district of Kashmir. Pakistan denied allegations its forces were responsible. Officials in both countries accused each other of cease-fire violations since then, raising tensions that some worry could derail efforts to resume stalled wide-ranging peace talks.
According to the Indian Government, the numbers of infiltration attempts had doubled in 2013 in comparison to the corresponding period (1 Jan- 5 Aug) of 2012. There had also been 57 Cease Fire Violations as of 05 august 2013, which was 80% more than the violations during the same corresponding period in 2012. The Indian Army successfully eliminated 19 hardcore terrorists in the months of July and August along the Line of Control and in the hinterland in J&K. The effective counter infiltration grid on the Line of Control ensured that 17 infiltration bids were foiled in 2013.
In August 2013 members of the Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT) militant outfit in Pakistan, the group blamed for the 2008 commando-style raid on Mumbai that killed 166 people, told Reuters they were preparing to take the fight to India once again, this time across the region.
A ceasefire has been in force with Pakistan since the midnight of 25th November, 2003 along the international border (IB), Line of Control (LoC) and Actual Ground Position Line (AGPL). According to the US National Counter Terrorism Center [NCTC], in 2004 there were a total of 284 attacks in Kashmir that met the statutory criteria for significant terrorist incidents. In early 2005 India and Pakistan launched a landmark bus service across the Line of Control in Jammu and Kashmir, allowing families divided by the Line to be reunited for the first time in nearly 60 years.
October of 2005 brought increased tension and disaster to Kashmir. On 8 October, 2005 a massive earthquake rocked the region causing enormous devastation including the deaths of tens of thousands of Kashmiri residents and the displacement of even greater numbers of the populace. The humanitarian crisis that ensued provided both Pakistan and India reasons to soften their policies slightly in the region in order to allow displaced people greater movement through the "line of control" and the movement of aid personnel and equipment to remote areas.
On 29 October, 2005 a coordinated bombing attack by suspected Pakistani based terrorist group fighting Indian rule of Kashmir threatened to derail peace efforts. It was believed the bombing was carried out by Lashkar-e-Toiba (LET) possibly in conjunction with the Students' Islamic Movement of India (SIMI). While LET was banned by the Pakistani government, India has consistently accused Pakistan of turning a blind eye to their activities. The three bombings were conducted within 30 minutes of each other in Delhi, resulting in the deaths of more than 60 people and the wounding of 200 others. The attacks were meant to threaten peace attempts between Pakistani President Musharraf and Indian Prime Minister Singh, however, the overwhelming destruction and need to bring aid to the earthquake stricken region overshadowed tensions caused by the bombing.
In June of 2006 President Musharraf of Pakistan announced a series of alternatives that could provide a solution to the Kashmir issue. His idea revolved loosely around the concept of a self-governance system for Kashmir with the inclusion of a period of joint management of the region by Pakistan, India and the Kashmiri's. This announcement by Musharraf was received by India with slight annoyance because it was purveyed through media covered interview sessions with the Pakistani president rather than closed door meetings with Indian officials.
On July 11th, 2006, a series of bombings aboard passenger trains during commuting hours in Mumbai, India, threatened to further destabilize peace efforts in Kashmir between Pakistan and India. The coordinated bombings which cost the lives of more than 200 Indian civilians and the wounding of another 700, again brought to he surface Pakistan's inability to control terrorist groups within its own territory. It was believed the attack was jointly conducted by LET and the SIMI.
On 5 December 2006, President Musharraf, in an interview with India's NDTV, said that Pakistan would withdraw troops and guarantee self-governance for Kashmiris if India accepted his peace proposals. The Indian Foreign Ministry responded by saying that it could agree as long as the borders were rendered "irrelevant." The response among was generally positive but cautious because India and Pakistan have been in negotiations on-and-off for years that have yet to come to a conclusion.
Since 2006, India and Pakistan have continued to take part in the Composite Dialogue process in an effort to maintain the peace process and strengthen bilateral relations. Following Pakistani elections in February 2008 the Indian Minister of External Affairs and the Indian Foreign Secretary met with their new counterparts to advance the Composite Dialogue talks, reaffirming a commitment to maintain the ceasefire along the Line-of-Control as well as increasing people-to-people connections through improving cross-border bus services. The July 2008 bombing of the Indian Embassy in Kabul and the Mumbai terrorist attacks in November 2008 increased tensions between India and Pakistan. Although Prime Minister Singh and Pakistan Prime Minister Yousuf Gilani agreed to resume talks following the 2010 SAARC summit, India continued to insist that Pakistan must do its part to dismantle terror networks operating from its territory and prosecute those who had a hand in planning the Mumbai attacks.
India reported that there were 93 ceasefire violations along the Line of Control Sector in J&K in 2012. This includes violations in the Uri, Poonch and Rajouri Sectors. One Indian soldier was killed and six were injured in cross LoC firing in the year 2012. In 2012, Indian sources continued to attribute violence and deaths in Jammu and Kashmir to transnational terrorist groups it alleges are backed by Pakistan. India and Pakistan attempted to decrease tensions in their bilateral relationship by increasing official dialogue between their two governments, lessening trade restrictions, and relaxing some visa requirements in 2012. Continued allegations of violations of the Line of Control between India and Pakistan (the border along Jammu and Kashmir), however, and Indian concerns about Pakistani-based terrorist groups remained impediments to normalizing relations.
The January 2013 clashes between the nuclear-armed neighbors were the worst outbreak of violence in Kashmir since a cease-fire took effect in 2003. India accused Pakistani troops of killing two Indian soldiers in a cross-border attack. Indian officials said the bodies of the two soldiers were subject to "barbaric and inhuman mutilation," and that one of them was beheaded. Pakistan claimed Indian troops crossed the border and raided a Pakistani military post, killing a Pakistani soldier. Pakistan's military said a Pakistani soldier was killed by "unprovoked firing" on a Pakistani military post in the Hotspring sector. A military spokesman said the attack was the 10th ceasefire violation by India so far this year.
Pakistan had worked to impart Gilgit-Baltistan (G-B) a semblance of self-governance and held elections there in 2015. Indian government, however, described the elections as an attempt to "camouflage its forcible and illegal occupation" of the regions which were an integral part of India. Prime Minister Narendra Modi by referring to Gilgit-Baltistan and Balochistan in his August 2016 Independence Day speech sought to rid India of its seeming diffidence in dealing with the Kashmir issue. His decision to raise the stakes on Kashmir by highlighting Pakistan's own failings in G-B and Balochistan was well received in India's strategic community. PM Modi's comments about goodwill for India in Balochistan and G-B, which were not backed by any substantive outreach to Kashmir, followed a slew of provocative remarks from Pakistan, not least the one by its high commissioner Abdul Basit dedicating Pakistan's Independence Day to freedom of Kashmiris. Of particular significance was Modi's reference to Balochistan as India is now effectively speaking Pakistan's language in suggesting at least moral and political support for Baloch separatistsm.

Many a relationship has been split in recent years. Many a friendship has been bridging the tubes. There's been many a divorce as well. Uranus in the 7th house is just not that conducive to commit kinds of relationships. It is good for serial love affairs, but not for marriage or relationships that are 'like' marriage. Uranus likes change and variety. He likes free. A durable kind of relationship seems 'boring' and hum drum.
Also, Uranus in the 7th house indicates a penchant for unconventional types of people. Plain vanilla types are not particularly interesting. The attraction consists of geniuses and rebels against societal norms – programmers, inventors, mathematicians, astrologers and astronomers. Media types are also stimulating. People you gravitate to are generally not serious people.
With Uranus in the 7th house, it is sometimes difficult to make sure that long-term shared plans. You don't know if you're needing to go to hang with that person a few months down the road. This is so for friendships too.
Mars, your love planet, behaves rather erratically this year, adding more instability to the love life. He thinks of his rare retrogrades from April 17 to June 29. This will be a time for taking stock of things and achieving some kind of clarity about where things stand in your relationship. From August 9 to October 30 (a long time) Mars will be 'out of bounds'. This wants're going way outside your social sphere in your search for love. Family members don't appear to have been approved.
You can mitigate problems in two ways. First, lead by partner or current love as much space as possible, so long as this isn't destructive. Second, help to change and experimentation (as much as feasible) within your relationship. Do unconventional things as a couple (the more unconventional the better). Just try to satisfy the partner's need for change within the relationship. You improve odds that way.
Marriage is not advisable this year – especially for those of attempting to arrive at your first marriage. Those of you seeking the second marriage have more stability, but it looks like a statue qua kind of year. The same is applicable to those of you working on their third marriages. Those of you seeking to their fourth marriage have romance, but again it's the stability of it that is questionable.
One thing is just for sure. Love will not be boring. There will be should be in no way be a dull moment. You can't take anything for granted. Love can come instantly and leave just as instantly. If you're contented with these frequent but brief lightning flashes across the sky, the love life will be happy.

Can you say "moral clarity?" The ABC News piece "'Know Thine Enemy,' Romney says of 'Jihadists'" is so awesome that I will quote it in full:
Gov. Mitt Romney, R-Mass., has sought to confront the religious element of terrorism.
"They are terrorists, yes, but more directly they are Jihadists," the White House hopeful told ABC News. "That has broad implications."
Romney's determination to avoid referring to America's enemies solely by the tactics that they use is earning praise from some foreign policy specialists.
"I think it could change the entire center of the conversation," said Mary Habeck, a professor of strategic studies at the Johns Hopkins University School of Advanced International Studies.
By identifying America's enemies as Jihadists, Habeck thinks the United States would be better positioned to wage an ideological campaign to "portray these people as the extremists that they really are" and to "drive a wedge between them and the vast majority of the Islamic world."
In her new book, "Knowing the Enemy: Jihadist Ideology and the War on Terror," Habeck argues that Jihadists are not merely angry about U.S. policies. In Habeck's view, Jihadists are at war with the United States because they view America as the biggest obstacle to the global rule of an Islamic superstate.
She told ABC News that if you refer to them as terrorists, "you have no idea what holds them together as a group or what gets them to join up as a group."
Romney's determination to go beyond the "terrorist" label has also met with approval by a Democratic member of the 9/11 Commission.
"The governor is on the right track," former Sen. Bob Kerrey, D-Neb., told ABC News. "I continue to believe very strongly that a war against a military tactic is not likely to be very satisfying in the end."
Kerrey is concerned, however, that the root word jihad has multiple implications.
"I would not use the word jihad because there is a peaceful jihad," said Kerrey.
The former Navy SEAL, who was awarded the Congressional Medal of Honor for his service in Vietnam, would prefer to see the United States declare war on al Qaeda.
Romney acknowledges that there has been a "big debate" in academic circles about the meaning of jihad, with some people believing that a spiritual jihad was never intended in the world of Islam to be militaristic.
He says, however, that "there is no question" about what jihad means to the Islamic militants fighting the United States. Nor does Romney think there is any question that Osama bin Laden would like the world to see him as a potential caliph.
"The old statement 'know thine enemy' is appropriate," Romney told ABC News.
Romney wants the public to know that Jihadists are not an "armed group of crazed maniacs in the hills of Afghanistan." Rather, Romney says the United States is facing a "far more sinister and broad-based extremist faction" with a "very 8th century view of the world."
Based on his reading of books such as "American Jihad: The Terrorists Living Among Us," by Steven Emerson, and "Future Jihad: Terrorist Strategies Against America" by Walid Phares, Romney believes the Jihadists want to "retake the ancient Muslim lands and unify umma, or the world of Islam, under a caliphate."
To support his views, Romney points to a memo that Ayman al-Zawahiri is believed to have written to Abu Musab al-Zarqawi on July 9, 2005, in which Al Qaeda's number two tells Al Qaeda's top agent in Iraq that their mission must not end with the expulsion of Americans from Iraq.
The letter, Arabic and English versions of which were posted in October to the Web site of the director of national intelligence, lays out a four-part plan that begins with expelling the Americans from Iraq but also includes establishing an Islamic authority over the Sunni areas of Iraq, extending the jihad wave to the secular countries neighboring Iraq, and clashing with Israel since Israel, in Zawahiri's view, "was established only to challenge any new Islamic entity."
Romney believes Jihadists are just a "very narrow and very extreme sector" of Islam. But given that there are more than one billion Muslims in the world, he warns that "a small percentage of a very large number is still a large number."
One outgrowth of Romney's focus on Jihadism is his support for increased surveillance in the United States.
In a speech to the conservative Heritage Foundation last year, Romney posed a series of rhetorical questions about domestic intelligence gathering.
"We have 120 colleges and universities in Massachusetts, roughly," he said. "How many individuals are coming to our state and going to those institutions who come from terror sponsored states? Do we know where they are? Are we tracking them? How about people who are in settings–mosques, for instance–that may be teaching doctrines of hate and terror? Are we monitoring that? Are we wiretapping? Are we following what's going on? Are we seeing who's coming in, who's coming out?"
The comments drew fire from Muslims and advocates of civil liberties in Massachusetts while being praised by some conservatives.
Romney told ABC News that it was not his intent to suggest wiretapping mosques, but he has not backed away from wanting to wiretap extremist individuals.
"I would wiretap individuals wherever they are who are preaching doctrines of hate," he said.
"It's important for as many of us as possible to understand the nature of those who are our enemies in this war," Romney told ABC News. "They are Jihadists–an extreme and tiny slice of the world of Islam. They will be defeated by military might and by the forces of modernity and moderation within the world of Islam."
Straight-UP, dude!
And here is the question evangelicals eyeing '08 have to answer: Are any of the Presbyterians and Episcopalians and Southern Baptists in the race speaking this clearly about all the "values issues," including the war, facing our nation?
You bet they're not.

On May 29, the 4th circuit agreed with the U.S. District Court that residency requirements for circulators are unconstitutional. The lawsuit concerned out-of-state circulators. The case is Libertarian Party of Virginia v Judd, 12-1996. Here is a copy of the 16-page decision. Virginia had vigorously argued that the plaintiff petitioner Darryl Bonner lacked standing, but the judges found that he did have standing. The state said since he injured his knee, he couldn't have petitioned anyway, but the judges said he could have petitioned while sitting down, and pointed out that Bonner was able to attend his own deposition, notwithstanding the knee problem.

My colors are Certainly celery, Bashful blue, Chocolate chip, and Whisper white.
DSP is Paper petal patch. I also used scallop border punch, circle punch, scallop oval punch, Modern label punch and Window punch. My image stamp is from the Country morning set. I used water color pencils and a blender pen to color my image.

Review: Batman V Superman: Dawn of Justice - Ultimate Edition
NOTE: While this is filed as a review it's focused more on the additions made with the Ultimate Edition and how they compare and contrast to the theatrical cut and how the film shapes up with said additions. It's a tad irregular (shit, I can't think of any other time we've done this), but given the popularity and controversy over this film, we felt it would be good to investigate this new cut with another pair of eyes (mine, in this instance). You can read Chris Bumbray's original theatrical review HERE and Eric Walkuski's review HERE. Obviously, this is a more SPOILER-filled review, given that the film has been out since March and is an extended cut.
REVIEW: I would never have guessed that BATMAN V SUPERMAN: DAWN OF JUSTICE would become such a controversial film. When it was originally announced at Comic Con the room was buzzing with excitement and the subsequent build of that excitement was palpable. However, there were always detractors from Zack Snyder's take on the DC Universe and upon the debut of BVS, a sudden divide was created over his ultimate vision. However, just after its release it was revealed that a longer, harder, and (hopefully) more immersive version would be coming for the home video release (as well as a blink-and-you-missed-it theatrical turn).
For me, the good outweighed the bad for the theatrical cut of BVS, but it still had some glaring issues, most notably the choppy and confusing editing. It was all over the map, with scenes cutting in strange places, losing all sense of narrative, and a general lack of cohesion throughout. This particular flow is sadly apparent with the Ultimate Edition, as the new version clarifies so much that you have to wonder just what the hell happened when they were making cuts up until initial release. I didn't mind the darker take on the DCEU, though. In fact, I quite liked that aspect, as it was a nice counterbalance to the often upbeat and colorful world that Marvel excels at. I also loved the fact that BVS hit the ground running, establishing a deep-rooted history with its characters (i.e. a world where superheroes have existed for some time). Beyond that, it spared us yet another Batman origin film, while still involving us in his plight, yet at a much older age (and in a pretty dark place) than we've seen before on film.
And now comes the Ultimate Cut, which includes a whopping 30 extra minutes of footage and sports an R-rating (which is completely unnecessary and hardly earned, minus a few bloody shots and one use of the word "fuck"). The question now on the tongues of fans (and non-fans, for that matter) is if this cut makes any difference in the overall film or if it's just excess filler from the cutting room floor. Well, it's surprisingly in favor of the former. Each new addition to this cut adds clarification to a number of scenes and subplots that, quite simply, didn't make sense in the theatrical cut. I found myself on numerous occasions going, "Ahhhh" with each new scene that served to clear up some of the more confusing parts of the theatrical cut.
The opening of the film, which finds Lois Lane (Amy Adams) in a terrorist compound in Africa, about to interview a suspected terrorist along with her "photographer" Jimmy Olsen (revealed here with that name). Things go awry, however, ending with Olsen dead and Lois held hostage. Here, however, there's more to the action, including the U.S. government's response, including a drone strike, which is promptly cut short by Superman. We also get more of the bad(der) guys (led by Callan Mulvey's Anatoli, in a much larger role with this cut), who kill off the men in the compound and burn their bodies (blaming Supes "heat vision" for their deaths), giving more insight into the overall set-up to frame Superman for their deaths, which was completely missing from the theatrical cut, causing much confusion as to why anyone would think that Superman killed those men to begin with.
The set-up of Superman for the deaths, which leads to Holly Hunter's Senator Finch seeking to hold him responsible, plays a much larger role in the Ultimate Cut. The most glaring omission comes from the woman who testifies in Congress that it was Superman who killed those men. After her tearful revelation of his "crimes" we later find out that she's a local woman that's part of the conspiracy to frame him. This is a major thing to leave out of the theatrical cut, as the question always loomed on the validity of the government's response to Superman supposedly killing those men and just how far and deep the set-up went, which we later find out is orchestrated by none other than Lex Luthor (Jesse Eisenberg). Anatoli later kills the woman, who, after a crisis of conscience, decides to tell Senator Finch that she made it up, which gives us a peek into just how far Lex will go to cover his tracks and get what he wants.
Speaking of Lex, there's some extended dialogue scenes here, which could be good or bad depending on how you liked Eisenberg's interpretation of the character. I found him more grating than I anticipated initially, but felt that he was fleshed out a bit more in the Ultimate Cut, as we find out more on his plot and motives to destroy Superman. However, if the character didn't work for you in the theatrical cut, I wouldn't expect a 180-degree turn on those feelings with this version.
For Batman/Bruce Wayne (Ben Affleck), we get a number of cool, small scenes, including a discussion about the Wayne family history with Alfred just prior to his mission to kill Superman and we also get a peek at him in action on security monitors when he steals the kryptonite from Lex's headquarters. A notable addition comes as well when Batman confronts Lex in prison at the end. Batman tells Lex that he's having him "moved" to Arkham Asylum after Lex cops to being "criminally insane." It's a cool reveal that ties us back into Batman's story, which is arguably the most interesting of the entire film.
Superman/Clark Kent (Henry Cavill) gets a hefty amount of beefing up here as well, with an inclusion of many sequences involving Kent investigating Batman. Kent seeks out the man that Batman branded at the beginning of the film, who is killed in prison for having the brand on him. He later runs into the man's widow and child, which furthers Kent's overall disdain for Batman and takes us much deeper into the story of the man he branded, for better or worse. There's also a scene where a neighbor talks ominously about Batman to Kent, again building up the drive to bring him to justice. On the homefront aspect, there's a moment where Kent calls his mom, Martha Kent (Diane Lane) for some counsel, which serves to give their relationship some familial depth.
For Superman, there's some added heft after the Capitol bombing, where we actually see him rescuing people from the building and bringing them to safety. It's baffling that they would leave that out, as one of the complaints about his character in the theatrical cut was that he didn't exude enough of the heroic traits we're used to. In this version we see him stick around to help, rather than just fly off like a guilty man in the theatrical version. It adds a lot of weight just to see him standing there and helping people after the explosion. That said, don't expect the "Aw, shucks" bright version of Superman that some desired. Despite the additions, this is still a conflicted Superman that's finding his place and purpose on Earth. This aspect was fine for me, although I'd certainly agree he could use some more punching up in the charisma department.
The Ultimate Edition also gives Lois a much larger role after the Africa incident as she dives deep into the investigation of it, eventually uncovering that Lex Luthor was behind the whole thing. Two new scenes stick out, including one with Jena Malone's Jenet Klyburn, a lab tech who analyzes the bullet that Lois recovered from the incident, telling her it's a metal that's not been seen before. She also tells Lois, after the Capitol bombing, that the wheelchair that housed the bomb was made of the same metal, but also lined with lead, which reveals to Lois that there's no way that Superman could've seen the explosion coming. The other notable scene is Lois investigating the apartment of Wallace Keefe (the main the wheelchair), finding that his home is stocked with food, indicating that he may not have been in on the plot, but rather a puppet in Lex's plan (i.e. he was not prepared to die...because he had oranges on top of the fridge).
As far as Wonder Woman goes, I couldn't spot anything new and, while I think Gal Gadot is great in the role, she's mostly relegated to a socialite who goes to parties and watches superhero reveals on her laptop (the lamest aspect of BVS, which should've been the coolest). We learn almost nothing about her reason for being there, other than to get an old photo back from Lex. Obviously, she's not hip to the digital age as, once a photo is out, it's out for good. Perhaps she should've tried a DMCA notice. Her whole reason for getting on the Turkish Airlines flight is obviously a tie-in for the airline and serves no relevant purpose that we'd know and the reveal of her name (Ms. Prince) when it's said by the flight attendant as she leaves is just silly. They can't even remember what drink I asked for during in-flight service.
The Steppenwolf (who has since been revealed as a villain in the upcoming JUSTICE LEAGUE) scene is worked into the finale, which is a suitable addition, as we never see Lex actually captured (let alone tried) in the theatrical cut. He just goes from his unleashing of Doomsday to getting his hair cut for prison. An odd jump, but now we have a smoother transition to that point.
So, is the Ultimate Edition better than the theatrical version? The short answer is yes. The longer answer is yes, but…do we really need three hours to get the best out of this film? I don't think so. Unlike Snyder's longer WATCHMEN cut, which serves very specific source material, BVS could easily lose just as many scenes as its gained, but more than that, a tighter narrative (i.e. much less convoluted) would have given it the strength to hold its own without more time added. However, for those that loved the film, I think the Ultimate Edition will be a welcome and appreciated addition and for those that didn't, I think this could assuage some of their disappointment with it. And for many, I'm sure this cut will make no difference at all of their opinion.
There's still much to love about BVS (pretty much anytime Batman is onscreen for one) and there's some rousing and cool action to be sure, so it's certainly not the lackluster affair many have made it out to be. Far from it. If anything, it's a promising and ambitious work that sometimes comes together and sometimes doesn't. The DCEU set-up and establishment of rooted history gets the comic geek in me excited for the future of this universe, but on the whole, I think BVS bit off way more than it could chew in attempting to really immerse itself fully in that world. A little restraint would've gone a long way. It's kind of like when someone has a great surprise party planned, but the excitement compels them to reveal it all to you beforehand, thereby killing the surprise. But, that doesn't mean you can't still have fun at the party.

Pineapple Meatballs Recipe
Yes, another recipe for meatballs! However, this time I'm posting something a little different – Pineapple meatballs. I have to admit when I first looked at the recipe I had no idea how this was going to taste, but to my surprise the flavors were all amazing. As you can see by looking at the ingredients, the sauce is very similar to sweet and sour sauce. I feel the Worcestershire sauce plays a huge role in the flavor of this recipe. This will take a little time to make, but if you want to speed things up you can brown the meatballs in the oven while you're making the sauce. I know brilliant right :)? This recipe for pineapple meatballs would be a great dish for a graduation party or for a dinner. I would suggest white rice as a side dish. Enjoy.
2 lbs ground beef (lean)
2 large eggs
½ cup dry breadcrumbs
1 teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon black pepper
1 ½ teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
¼ teaspoon garlic powder
1 cup brown sugar
3 tablespoons cornstarch
1 ¾ cups pineapple juice (reserved from pineapple tidbits)
¼ cup white vinegar
1 ½ tablespoon soy sauce
1 ½ teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1 (14 oz) can pineapple tidbits
Cooking Instructions:
Step 1: Pre-heat your oven to 350 degrees. Make the meatballs by combining all meatball ingredients in a large bowl. Mix well and shape into about 1" meatballs.
Step 2: Brown Meatballs in a non-stick frying pan and drain on paper towels (or if you want to save time brown in the oven on a cookie sheet while you're making the sauce).
Step 3: Make the sauce by combining cornstarch and brown sugar in a sauce pan. Then add 1 ¾ cup pineapple juice and blend until the mixture is smooth. Add vinegar, Worcestershire sauce, soy sauce and stir. Simmer uncovered on medium low until thickened (about 8 minutes).
Step 4: In a casserole dish pour sauce over meatballs and add pineapple tidbits. Lightly mix meatballs until they are coated with the sauce. Bake in the oven for 30-40 minutes or until fully cooked

I'm definitely trying this dish tonight. Thanks!
m making these for my sister-n-law babyshower for i made them for a dinner party and this is one of the foods she has to have this whole 9 months of being pregnant!!! thanks a ton!!!
I was wondering if I could use the sauce for Italian Meatballs. I already bought them, but this looks so good! It would be for a grad party this weekend.

I just made the sauce and put on store bought meatballs…."semi-homemade"! This sauce is awesome!! It has great flavor without being over powering. I will definitely make this again…but next time I will make the meatballs. 😉
Thank you Bobby for your incredible website and sharing all you wonderful recipes!!!

Looks great, can I make these the night before and just reheat in crock pot? I want to make these for Easter dinner and my oven will not be free. This will be for a large gathering?
I made these for a function at my church and tripled the recipe and I'm happy to say, they were a major hit! This recipe is brilliant and the flavours are nothing short of sensational! These were the first dish finished on the buffet table and everyone raved about them and begged me for the recipe. Your site is by far the best recipe site on the internet. Thanks for making me feel like a superstar by following your recipes 🙂
I made the vegetarian version and they are wonderful as well! In fact, the non-vegetarians who normally refuse to try anything without meat, ate the meatballs and didn't realize. They even went back for seconds! I think it's the sauce…amazing! I make them every year for Christmas and in fact, am making them right now. They're a hit every year!
Hi Bobby,
Can i cook the sauce with the meatballs in a large saucepan and not in the oven? my oven is kinda of broken and i really want to make this.

Herbivorous Butcher in Minneapolis, Minnesota
By now you may have heard that Northeast Minneapolis is home to the nation's first vegan butcher shop. The opening in January drew lines around the block and media attention around the world, including the BBC and Jimmy Fallon. Hold your cynicism: Brother-and-sister owners Kale and Aubry Walch have created something new and zeitgeist-y that's worth the chatter.
As an avowed burger eater, I was curious about this meat-free meat shop. Early samples weren't great, so I gave them a month, then popped into the cute shop on First Avenue. I picked up sriracha brats, smoky house BBQ ribs, Korean ribs, and a porterhouse steak. These items mostly comprise vital wheat gluten dough flavored with plants and spices, then shaped to look like actual meat. Nearly everything in the deli cases looked fine and quite close to form, but I couldn't bring myself to buy the maple bacon, which brought to mind a large pink bandage.
I cooked the ribs and brats first, throwing them in shallow pans of simmering water, as advised. The brats were my least favorite, in part because they didn't have the kick promised by the "sriracha" in the name. The BBQ ribs had a nice smokiness and their sauce was solid, as was the dark sesame glaze on the Korean ribs. With each of the above, I struggled with the texture, which was uniformly dense and cake-y. It wasn't terrible, but it wasn't something I wanted to keep eating.
And then there was the porterhouse, of which I was most skeptical due to the oddly lumpy shape (we eat with our eyes, too!). I seared it in a hot pan with olive oil, simmering thyme, and garlic, then seasoned it and flipped it a couple of times to ensure it warmed all the way through. Though a little too tomato-y sweet for me, I kept going back for more. It had a nice crusty exterior, and the texture was surprisingly close to a rarish cut of meat, with a softer density and an appealing ruby-red coloring. I liked it, though halfway through I cheated and added a knob of butter to the top, which made it way better (once an omnivore . . . ).
I get it: These products are meant for people who have given up meat entirely, but maybe have a meat memory they'd like to revisit once in a while. Herbivorous Butcher is great for that. Working in small batches with good flavors, the owners are charting a course for veganism that moves past preachy shaming toward mass-market viability. As far as certain health claims go, I can't quite make the stretch of substituting protein for mostly wheat gluten. And as far as meatless Mondays go, I'd rather just eat veggies. But then again, I'm not their target. If I want to make a meat memory, I'm reaching for the real deal. 507 1st Ave. NE, Mpls., 612-208-0992, theherbivorousbutcher.com

- I cannot get my relay output from my Sarix camera to work.
- The Sarix Professional camera I just bought does not have a relay output; how do I connect an output from this camera?
- How do I wire the output from a Professional series Sarix camera?
- What are the specifics about the relay output from the Sarix Professional series cameras?
Product Line
Pelco Cameras
Sarix Professional series cameras - IMP1110, IMP219, IMP319, IMP519, IXP11, IXP21, IXP31, IXP51, IXPS1
Customers purchased cameras and cannot get the relay output to work from the camera.
When it comes to the Sarix Professional line of cameras, their PhotoMos output is not a true "relay" in the sense of a relay contact. The PhotoMos forward biases a circuit that outputs a 5VDC reference level. There is a need to connect an interim relay (such as an NTE Electronics R70-5D1-12 or its like) between the OUT and COM (Common) from the Sarix Professional camera model and the panel or other such input device that is needing to be triggered.
If you connect a voltage to the OUT, it will eventually burn the PhotoMos output and/or the circuit behind it.

|The coastline of Taiwan consists of hundreds of miles of
sandy beaches as well as rocky cliffs.
|The massive central mountain range of Taiwan contains many peaks over 10,000 feet in elevation.
Taiwan is actually smaller and a bit further south than Florida. It's roughly 1/4 the size of peninsular Florida, which makes its massive mountain range even more impressive. Its northern tip is at about the same latitude as the Everglades, and its southern tip would be somewhere in Cuba. The Tropic of Cancer runs through the middle of the island. But you get the analogy: Florida with a touch of the Andes.
I was recently there, as often, for non-botanical purposes, but with camera ready, I recorded as much as I could of the plant life I saw. This first installment can be considered a special version of this website, which should be called "I brake for not-so-wildflowers," as I will focus on the cultivated plant life of Taiwan. Cultivated plants are often also quite brake-worthy.
|Visitors from all over Taiwan enjoy the many varieties of chrysanthemum displayed at the annual show in December.
The first weekend after our arrival in late November, my brother-in-law took us to the former residence of the late President, Chiang Kai-Shek, which is now the site of the annual Chrysanthemum Festival. Chrysanthemums originated in China, where there are many wild relatives. The Chinese began cultivating and breeding Chrysanthemums over 3500 years ago, and now there are thousands of hybrids and cultivated varieties. They are derived originally from Chrysanthemum indicum, but have involved hybridization with other species.
Some non-chrysanthemums, such as this Liatris, add
variety to the exhibition.
|Chrysanthemum trees are constructed for the annual show.
Numerous varieties of chrysanthemum are
displayed and labeled.
Traveling around Taiwan, one sees many other cultivated plants, including marvelous varieties of tropical fruit, orchids, flowering trees, and plants that make a Floridian feel at home, like hibiscus, orchid trees (Bauhinia spp.), bougainvillea, and at the time I was there, poinsettias blooming along the highways. Even some of the weeds are the same, like the annoying beggar tick, Bidens pilosa, whose prickly achenes will stick all over your clothes if you carelessly walk into a patch of them.
Betel nut palms (Areca catechu) are everywhere in the Taiwan
Radiating spokes of flashing
lights indicate the location of
a betel nut booth.
The other major attraction among the cultivated plants of Taiwan is the variety of fruit. We arrived during the sugar apple (Annona squamosa) harvest season, and had the pleasure of sampling two different varieties: the standard sugar apple and the pineapple sugar apple. The tough skin of the sugar apple separates around its scale-like units when ripe to reveal the sweet creamy fruit surrounding several to many hard black seeds. Dragon fruit and bananas were also fruiting, but they tend to be ripening all year long.

FARMINGTON – Every old building has a history, and the Mount Washington Tavern, located on the National Road at Fort Necessity National Battlefield, is no exception. Visit this tavern on a regular day, and the park rangers will gladly share the documented history of building and the National Road. Visit the night of Saturday, October 24, though, and the Friends of Fort Necessity will share the undocumented history.
