The Salvation Army's Project SHARE program has been selected by the Georgia Public Service Commission to receive $1 million to provide relief for needy natural gas customers across the state. This generous allocation is part of a total $5 million order of the PSC, with $4 million slated for distribution through Atlanta Gas Light Company as direct bill credits for qualified low-income senior citizens.
Details related to Project SHARE's distribution have not been announced, but the 25 year-old program's state-wide network of casework intake locations will serve clients by appointment once the funds become available. Restrictions and eligibility requirements will be published prior to an expected start date of no later than mid-February. Updates and changes will appear on this page.
Georgia Divisional Commander Jim Arrowood said, "The Salvation Army is grateful for this recognition of Project SHARE by the PSC, and thankful for the opportunity to serve more Georgians in crisis at this critical time."

The Intention for Touched by a Nurse© – the website
To support the healing work of all nurses; bringing supportive and inspirational resources to nurses; knowing their touch heals others.
This site is for and about nurses including those for whom we care. I contend nursing is a sacred calling. There is truly nothing like it. At the beginning of our lives, birth, nearly everyone is greeted by a nurse, often even before their own mother. This profession requires and combines all the most advanced knowledge of science and technology, simultaneously delivered with heartfelt artful touch and compassion.
By no means is this work easy. It is mentally, physically, emotionally and spiritually challenging. It is my hope this site can offer us some brief respites and replenishment. Hopefully nurses will find some nourishment on some levels so you can continue your sacred calling.
My hope in creating this venue is to support the healing work of nurses by supporting the nurses themselves. It is intended to offer options for brief visits and longer journeys of inspiration, thought, solace and encouragement. Like never before the world needs us.
You will find snippets of my commentary on our issues of today. Inspirations from stories from other nurses and my book "Touched by a Nurse©." There will be opportunities to share your stories with others; and periodically some humor to lighten our loads. I trust this will become a living iterative tool that nourishes as we reflect upon the power of our work.

Hoboken Breakfast Nuggets 3/31/2010
Happy last day of March, Hoboken! Here's a few tidbits to keep you up to date in the Mile Square!
Last Day for Barnes & Noble!
Even if you don't like books, you may want to get one last glimpse of what Barnes & Noble looks like before it transforms into whatever tenant comes next (at one point rumored to be a Staples, but uncertain at this time…)
Today, the big box book retailer bids farewell to Hoboken – citing "rent increases" as their reason for leaving. I somehow doubt that a bit, and assume that the rents were always relatively high, and they're just closing low-performing stores to help the company's bottom line. Believe what you will.
Hoboken Barnes & Noble – R.I.P. 2010
Don't forget your residential parking permits!
Considering the Holiday weekend coming up – the City will begin enforcing those pesky RFID parking stickers (you know, the ones that you can still get a boot on, despite having one in plain sight?) starting on Monday, April 5th.
You can head over to the basement of City Hall, and renew your permit until 9:30pm today and tomorrow.
No matter what the city feeds you, parking still stinks in Hoboken, with no feasible plan to once and for all reduce the stress in our over-populated town.
No City Council meeting tonight!
Just a simple reminder, that city council meetings typically take place on first and third Wednesdays of each month – and boy oh boy are we all lucky today.
Since this is the fifth Wednesday – we get to take an extra week off from the marathon meetings where much is said, but little is accomplished.
The next time we're so lucky will be the last week of June 2010.
Remaining months in 2010 with five Hump Days are: September and December.
Enjoy the (drier) day today!

Now's the time for Dallas residents to go and see the new Grevy's zebra foal in the Wilds of Africa exhibit at the Dallas Zoo. It's a big deal, zoo officials say, because Grevy's are a rare type of zebra, with about 2,500 left in Africa. To mark the occasion, the zoo's dropping admission to half-price all day on Saturday.
The new foal, Wester, was born back in July and took the name of former zookeeper Heidi Wester, who passed away last year. "Everyone agreed the foal should be named after her," said Todd Bowsher, the zoo's Director of Animal Operations.
Bowsher's been associated with the zoo for 20 years and said Wester's the first foal he recalls being born at the zoo -- a big relief to some, since Wester's mother is 20 years old and the zebras only live about 25-30 years in captivity. But once the zoo brought in stallion Cayenne from the Caldwell Zoo in Tyler, the pepper was spread, and babies obviously got made, bringing Dallas's Grevy's population up to a solid four. But a fifth could be on the way.
"We think Kirstin's pregnant too," Bowsher said referring to a second Grevy's mare at the zoo.
If you like this story, consider signing up for our email newsletters.
You have successfully signed up for your selected newsletter(s) - please keep an eye on your mailbox, we're movin' in!
You can only see the zebras from the monorail safari, but it's worth it for a rare sight like this one. Jump for another shot of young Wester.

Dear Parents and Friends,
I congratulate our students on the positive start they have made to Term 3. They look happy as they re-engage in a variety of learning activities, classes, sports and musical events and religious experiences. There is also great excitement around the use of the new learning spaces. I hope that you have had an opportunity to visit these new spaces during the past few weeks.
As Stage 1 of the Building Project reaches completion we commence Stage 2 of the Building Project.
- Currently the Development Application is being prepared by the architects and CEO school facilities officers to be lodged to North Sydney Council by the end of this week.
- The Steering Committee will meet on August 28 to review the plans.
- Presentation to St Mary's parents at a forum on Monday September 7 at 7pm.
The Steering Committee Members for the Building Project are as follows:
- School Leadership Team
- Project Manager: Paul Gibson
- SARM Architects
- Regional Education Consultant: Janice Haydon
- Anni Austin (Parent)
- Wendy Stamp (Parent)
- Damian Milani (Parent)
- Geoff Van Den Bos (Parent)
On Monday evening September 7 at 7pm there will be an opportunity for parents to engage in a Parent Forum where I will update you on various school matters and provide you with an opportunity to ask questions and provide feedback. One of the matters I will brief you on will be the second stage of the building program. I hope you will be as excited as I am about the plans for our growing school where as you know, we will be constructing a new building on the terrace site immediately to the east of the school on Ridge Street.
I understand some parents may be concerned about how we will accommodate all students during the second phase of the building program. Most students will remain in our existing buildings during the construction of the new building, but we will need to locate some classes elsewhere during that period. At present, the Catholic Education Office personnel are looking at the options for the construction program phasing and accommodation of the children. I will be consulting with the School Advisory Council and the stage 2 Building Steering Committee about these matters and will keep the parent community informed.
As part of the development of St Mary's School and the necessary forward thinking that such a project entails, I will be participating in an international school principals' conference in Finland next week. This will be an excellent opportunity to network with other colleagues from around the world and also showcase St Mary's School. School visits to Denmark to see some very contemporary school buildings will also be a feature of the conference. Finland is renowned for its contemporary education system and high academic standards so I am looking forward to experiencing their system in this setting. During my absence of three weeks, Julie Hunt, assistant principal, will assume the position of acting principal and will be available to meet parents if needed.
It is with much appreciation that I thank the many parents who participated in the survey for Julie Hunt's contract renewal recently. Julie was very successful in her appraisal and we congratulate her on such fine achievements. I'm certain that you will support her in the acting role during my absence.
Yours in peace
God Bless

Four Diamond establishments are noted for providing a high degree of hospitality, service and attention to detail
OTTAWA, ONTARIO--(Marketwired - Jan. 27, 2017) - Three luxurious hotels and two world-class restaurants in Ottawa have once again earned the coveted CAA/AAA Four Diamond designation for 2017 and remain part of a select group of establishments within North America to hold that status.
The Westin Ottawa, the Fairmont Château Laurier, Brookstreet Hotel, Beckta Dining & Wine and Restaurant E18hteen are a part of a list of just 1,615 hotels and 665 restaurants that have made the CAA/AAA Four Diamond list for 2017.
"We are pleased to recognize these establishments," says Christina Hlusko, President and CEO of CAA North & East Ontario. "To maintain the exceptional standards year after year that are required for this rating is an outstanding achievement. CAA/AAA Four Diamond establishments are attentive to guests' needs and consistently deliver memorable luxury experiences in Ottawa."
A Four Diamond hotel is refined and stylish, providing upscale physical attributes, extensive amenities and a high degree of hospitality, service and attention to detail. A Four Diamond restaurant provides distinctive fine dining fare, creatively prepared and skillfully served, often with a wine steward and in an upscale ambience.
"The whole team at Beckta is so honoured to receive the coveted CAA/AAA Four Diamond award for the 13th year, given the incredibly high standards of the anonymous reviewers and the excellent company of restaurants this distinction puts us in," says Stephen Beckta, owner of Beckta Dining & Wine. "We are very grateful that CAA/AAA Members will be encouraged to visit our dining rooms based upon their critics' professional and impartial recommendations."
For 80 years, CAA/AAA has used professional inspectors to conduct in-person property evaluations. To be CAA/AAA Approved, properties must pass an unannounced, on-site evaluation. Hotels must meet or exceed cleanliness, comfort and hospitality standards, and restaurants must meet requirements for cleanliness, food preparation and service. After an establishment is approved, the AAA inspector reviews an extensive list of attributes to determine the appropriate rating level, on a scale of One to Five Diamonds, based on the extensiveness of services, facilities and amenities.
CAA North & East Ontario provides roadside assistance to Members, along with an extensive array of travel and insurance services designed to suit the individual needs, wants and expectations of its Members.

You almost got it Mit...it's Jujyfruits. The lovely gummy candy that gets stuck between your teeth that you can't dislodge without a jackhammer and prohibits you from conversing with others like a normal human being. So, given that description, I'd say you were spot on referring to your client as "Jujube".

You aren't old it's just that chocolate was in. This is the one time of year I let my Sweetart obsession out of the locked, bolted, welded nearly shut box in which I keep it. Yesterday, the day when all the candy should go on sale, I went looking for the Holy Grail of sale candies: the bag of 100 four-to-a-pack envelopes of Sweetarts...and there were none. None. There wasn't even an empty box or shelf space where they should have been.
Good luck on NaBloPoMo! :)

Maple Leafs (12-14-7) at Islanders (19-11-5)
Before I begin, I would like to say to all the readers that I hoped you had a great Christmas and enjoyed the holidays with friends and family!
With that introduction out of the way, it is time to watch Leafs hockey again. The last time they played was against the Arizona Coyotes where they lost 3-2 in a sloppy performance overall. Tonight's "Hometown Hockey" has the Leafs playing in Brooklyn for the first time as they set to take on the tough New York Islanders to end the road trip that technically started before the holiday freeze.
The Islanders are no slouch of an opponent; they have been one of the better teams in the league of late and have the ever-so-dangerous duo of John Tavares and Kyle Okposo to pile on offense. They head into this game on a 6-3-1 stretch and are looking to gain ground on the surging Washington Capitals for first in the Metropolitan.
Because of this, the Leafs better be ready to come to the rink to play when the puck drops. Not simply because of what is at stake for the opposition, but to also not show any signs of wear and tear from a long rest. Despite missing some key members in their lineup (Okposo and Jaraslav Halak), the Islanders will still give the Leafs a hard time getting organized if they aren't prepared to play.
Speaking of organization, the defenses and goaltendings consistency continues to be an issue for the Leafs. After a dominating match against the L.A. Kings, where Bernier earned his first win in a shutout, the Leafs followed that up by allowing 7 goals in the next two games combined. As Bernier is expected to get the start, it is important that he continues to build his confidence and have another solid performance to make Babcock's goaltending more difficult (which is a good thing).
The offense is in danger of going though a dry spell once again, so it's going to take a strong defensive performance if the Leafs are going to sneak out a win. As I previously stated, consistency is an issue, but there have been moments where it worked effectively for the Leafs and the results were mostly positive as a result. The good one needs to be on display against a strong offensive team, the Islanders in this case, so it will be up to the likes of Matt Hunwick, Morgan Rielly, and Roman Polak to close the door and limit as many scoring chances as they can.
The Islanders also house a fairly strong team on the back end, so the Leafs will need to capitalize on all their chances in the offensive zone. This is because the Islanders expected goalie, backup Thomas Greiss, is having a solid season and has provided the Islanders with impressive goaltending depth. As a result, a timely goal from the likes of Nazem Kadri, Leo Komarov, James van Reimsdyk, and Joffrey Lupul will be necessary if the Leafs are going to win this one.
Basically, the Leafs need to play strong defensively all night to give the Islanders top players as little quality chances as they can, and the Leafs offense needs to come though at the right to get a win in Brooklyn.
James Reimer will be returning to the Leafs lineup, hopefully for good, as he'll be Bernier's backup for the game tonight. No word as of yet when Garret Sparks and Nick Spaling will be activated off injury reserved, though it appears that Sparks will be returning to the Marlies once he is good to go unless be another goalie injury. (I probably jinxed it, didn't I?)
Here's to hope that this game will be a positive distraction from William Nylander's head injury and Team Canada's slow start at the WJC yesterday. If nothing else, there is always a rematch match that will be coming two days laters.
And of course…Go Leafs Go!

Asymptotic problems for stochastic processes with reflection and related PDE's
Spiliopoulos, Konstantinos
Freidlin, Mark I
MetadataShow full item record
Asymptotic problems for stochastic processes with reflection and for related partial differential equations (PDE's) are considered in this thesis. The stochastic processes that we study, depend on a small parameter and are restricted to move in the interior of some domain, while having instantaneous reflection at the boundary of the domain. These stochastic processes are closely related to corresponding PDE problems that depend on a small parameter. We are interested in the behavior of these stochastic processes and of the solutions to the corresponding PDE problems as this small parameter goes to zero. In particular, we consider two problems that are related to stochastic processes with reflection at the boundary of some domain. Firstly, we study the Smoluchowski-Kramers approximation for the Langevin equation with reflection. According to the Smoluchowski-Kramers approximation, the solution of the equation μ\ddot{q}<super>μ</super>t=b(q<super>μ</super>t)-\dot{q}<super>μ</super>t+sigma(q<super>μ</super>t)\dot{W}t, q<super>μ</super>0=q, dot{q}<super>μ</super>0=p converges to the solution of the equation \dot{q}t=b(qt)+σ(qt)dot{W}t, q0=q as μ← 0. We consider here a similar result for the Langevin process with elastic reflection on the boundary of the half space, i.e. on partial <bold>R</bold>+<super>n</super>={(x<super>1</super>,...,x<super>n</super>) in <bold>R</bold><super>n</super>: x<super>1</super>= 0}. After proving that such a process exists and is well defined, we prove that the Langevin process with reflection at x<super>1</super>=0 converges in distribution to the diffusion process with reflection on the boundary of <bold>R</bold>+<super>n</super>. This convergence is the main justification for using a first order equation, instead of a second order one, to describe the motion of a small mass particle that is restricted to move in the interior of some domain and reflects elastically on its boundary. Secondly, we study the second initial boundary problem in a narrow domain of width ε<< 1, denoted by D<super>ε</super>, for linear second order differential equations with nonlinear boundary conditions. The underlying stochastic process is the Wiener process (X<super>ε</super>t,Y<super>ε</super>t)$ in the narrow domain D<super>ε</super> with instantaneous normal reflection at its boundary. Using probabilistic methods we show that the solution of such a problem converges to the solution of a standard reaction-diffusion equation in a domain of reduced dimension as &epsilon→0. This reduction allows to obtain some results concerning wave front propagation in narrow domains. In particular, we describe conditions leading to jumps of the wave front. This problem is important in applications (e.g., thin waveguides).

Big, fluffy, fleshy banana leaves gave way for Pato as he pierced through the garden with his bare feet. His shorts were not long enough to keep out the blackjacks from pocking his leg as he galloped up and down the dead broken branches on the earth. He clasped his hand like a ball because he had something in there. Something that Soni was chasing him for.
"You'll kill it stupid!!" Soni shouted from behind him. Soni was Pato's friend ever since their family moved here about a month ago. And ever since Soni found Pato digging up the soil in search of millipedes and worms, Soni had always been following him, because in the process, they found coins, and bottle tops, and strange pieces of broken things that they all piled up in their secret place. Soni, with her short dress, pushed the banana leaves away from her view as she tried to make sure that Soni was in her view. She knew where Pato was going.
Pato's house was made of stone-stone and had a mabati roof. The garden just behind it was theirs but Pato's mother didn't care too much on maintaining it since she had naughty children like Pato and his two little twin brother and sister on her back. Just behind the house, Pato and Soni had found a space, where they could 'hide' themselves from the world and show each other what they had discovered, where they could tell each other things that they had seen and where they could divulge in things they overheard. It was their space, to share.
Soni found Pato waiting for her at that place. He was holding his clasped hand to his eye, peeping through the space between his thumbs.
"Let me see!!" Soni urged him.
"Don't slap my hand again like you did the last time!"
I won't. I promise." Soni smiled at him
Pato lowered his hand and put it in between himself and Soni. Pato's small hand struggled not to tremble as he let go of one hand to reveal it.
"It's a ladybird." Its red and black body walked up and down Pato's palm from one corner to the other, making its way to the other side of Pato's hand, as he moved his hand upside down to keep it upright.
"Can I hold it?"
Soni held out her two open palms under Pato's hand, and Pato lowed his hand onto them. With the other hand, Pato pushed the ladybird off of his hand, but it spread its wings and spun into the air.
"It's going away silly!" Soni shouted.
"Let's follow it!!" Pato and Soni rushed after it… onto the road, jumping to grab it before it flew up and further up into the sky.
"Look now you made it go away again" Pato blurted out pissed off.
"It's not my fault that it got away…" Soni justified herself.
"Let's go play Allah…i… gate… a," Pato suggested.
"It's Alligator you dumb ass!" She chuckled, as she projected her superiority onto Pato, but Pato had already ran off to the river. He was always first to the river and thus got to play as the alligator, and Soni was the prey. They took their clothes off and jumped into the river splashing water all over the banks. They had all gone under water and now Pato would swim liking for Soni. If he caught her before she swam all the way downstream, he would win. Soni kept still. She didn't know where she was exactly because she didn't know how to open her eyes under water, unlike Pato who opened them like a real fish-fish. Even though his eyes would become red like blood-blood, he somehow bared the sting of water in his eyes. Pato saw her, like all other times before, he would sneak up on her, and grab her leg. Soni would kick and yelp and flap in the water like the hippos do when they know that they will be dinner for a crocodile. Soni kicked Pato and squirmed off of the water, panting like a fish out of water. Pato got his head outside the water, laughing and mocking Soni.
"I told you not to do that you cockroach!!" Soni always had stupid names for Pato when he did stupid things.
"If I'm a cockroach, then you are a cockroach! Because cockroaches only talk to cockroaches!"
"No I'm not!" Soni screamed. She turned away from Pato, as she put back her clothes and went some distance away from him, and lay flat on the ground. She closed her eyes.
Pato squeezed himself beside her.
"I'm sorry Soni…" Soni put her fingers in her ear. "I really am…" Pato continued.
"Blah blah blah…" Soni started singing.
Pato got up, leaned towards her mouth, and their lips touched.
"Argggg!! Don't do that again you …. Ugly frog!" Pato laughed, and they lay there together. The sun was still up, but not so hot that they couldn't bear.
They looked into the air for a while
"You know Pato, if you look hard enough you can see him."
"Look where, see who??"
"In the sun."
"Wewe ni fala," Pato laughed, "You can't see God!! He is colourless!"
"Yes you can, I saw him.
"You're going kuku."
"Believe me. You just have to look hard enough.
"Okay, let me try."
"I'll whisper in your ear." Pato got up and looked at Soni as she smiled at him. Pato trusted her
"Tell me when you see him…" Pato look onto the sun.
He had now done it for a minute. "My eyes are getting all watery Soni." Pato struggled to keep up
"Wait for the tears to go away… Wait for the tears to go away." Soni urged him. Until all you can see is white."
"Okay Soni," Pato rubbed his eyes on his shirt, zooming in with his eyes as he looked on, determined
"Do you see him?? Do you see him??"

We're either getting really clumsy or adventurous.
From the makers of the G-Shock line of watches and ruggedized G'zOne mobile phones comes a rough and tumble digital camera dubbed Exilim G EX-G1. By the looks of it, I doubt I'd ever put in my pocket for fear of severing a major artery in an area I hold near and dear to my heart.
If you're familiar with Casio's aforementioned products then it's safe to say that this camera is one tough cookie, which is probably why it's priced at $300. The 12.1-megapixel shooter is wafer thin at 0.78 inches and features a 3X zoom lens and 2.5-inch display. Encased in stainless steel, the EX-G1 is waterproof up to 10 feet, shock resistant, freezeproof, and dustproof.
That's all well and good, but it does it take decent photos?

As fears of an American recession ripple across the globe this week, analysts and energy experts are wondering whether the great oil boom of the last five years is finally coming to an end — or whether it is simply taking a break.
While an economic slowdown might lead to lower oil demand, as consumers scale back their gasoline consumption and businesses cut air travel, some economists say this might not necessarily produce lower energy prices. Global oil supplies are tight, geopolitical tensions remain high, and producers are counting on higher prices to offset rising costs.
After briefly touching $100 a barrel twice, oil prices have shed 13 percent since the beginning of the year. Crude oil futures on the New York Mercantile Exchange dropped $2.22 a barrel, or 2.5 percent, to close at $86.99 a barrel on Wednesday, their lowest level since October.
Even as economic growth slows in the United States, some experts fear the world might still find itself confronted with high energy costs, a situation that would be reminiscent of the mid-1970s or the early 1990s. Despite the clouds hanging over the economy, and recent stock market losses, several energy analysts say that oil prices will average $80 a barrel this year, $8 a barrel higher than last year's average — and nearly double the figure of 2004.
The prospect of a collapse in oil prices, like the one that drove oil to $10 a barrel after the Asian financial crisis in the late 1990s, remains fairly remote. In fact, energy traders are betting on historically high prices into 2010, paying around $83 a barrel for futures contacts that call for delivery of oil in two years.
"The rally of the past few years seems like it is coming to an end," said Antoine Halff, the head of commodities research at Newedge, a brokerage firm. "But does it mean we're reverting to the lows we had previously? There are other factors that are providing a floor to prices."
Efforts to expand oil production are constrained by shortages and rising costs for materials and labor, as well as widespread project delays. Geopolitical tensions in Iraq, Iran and Nigeria — and more restrictive policies in Russia and Venezuela toward foreign investment in oil fields — have hampered production growth from some of the world's most important suppliers.

I'll admit, it's not easy to wreck a cookie.
But where there's a will (and copious amounts of icing and edible images), THERE'S A WAY:
And since tomorrow is National Cookie Day, I figured I'd update you guys on my ever-growing collection of Ridiculously Decorated Gingerbread Men! (yaaay!)
...because even after 7+ years, these things never get old.
So many questions. So little clothing.
As always, my favorite designs tend to ignore the "man" part entirely:
Which can sometimes lead to awkward situations:
Don't worry, Mr. Elephant, I'm sure NO ONE is looking at your trunk.
Let's give this one the benefit of the doubt:
...and say it's a murder scene.
"Just a poodle claiming her latest victim, folks. Nothing to see here."
Speaking of which, I'm particularly fond of the heavy-falling-objects approach:
You scream, I scream, he definitely screamed.
And just when you think they've milked this whole gingerbread man shape for all its worth, along comes an udder triumph:
The gingerbread man has officially been cowed.
Thanks to Rebecca S., Jeannie W., Gary S., Mike H., Heidi R., Katie Q., Tom H., Letty B., & Rachel T. for the a-moo-sing finds.

As the days get longer and brighter, the idea of being cooped up in a gym can suddenly seem less appealing. The good news is, there's plenty you can do to keep your exercise routine going in the great outdoors!
Supported by our smart network of doctors, we've looked at the health benefits of taking your daily exercise out in the open.
It's more fun
When you're on the treadmill or exercise bike, there's not much to look at besides the wall in front of you. Once you get outside, you have the chance to choose your own scenery.
Why not have a run around that picturesque park near your home, or look for woodland trails and cycle paths in your local area? The list of options is a long as you want to make it.
Giving yourself some beautiful new surroundings will prevent your workout from becoming a chore and help you push yourself further than ever before. In the gym, you've nothing to distract you from how tired you're getting. Outside, you'll be so busy enjoying the fresh air - not to mention watching where you put your feet - you won't even notice.
You'll improve your mental health
As well as making your workout more enjoyable, just being outside is enough to trigger an improvement in your mental health. Studies have shown that looking at a beautiful view can boost your mood. Shutting yourself indoors definitely doesn't!
Bringing a little nature into your jog or cycle is a great way to get yourself in a positive frame of mind for the day ahead, or even relax at the end of a difficult day.
There are physical health benefits too
Spending an hour in the sun each day will ensure you get more than enough Vitamin D, which is important for strong bones, healthy muscles and a robust immune system.
Sunlight only provides this benefit when it makes direct contact with your skin. Even if you manage to get the treadmill by the window, none of the sun's benefits can pass through the glass.
You can also be a bit choosier about your running terrain. Treadmills provide quite a hard surface that puts a lot of impact on your joints with each step you take. Using them a lot can increase your risk of injury. Outdoors, you can seek out softer surfaces such as grass and earth that will be a little gentler on your knees and ankles.
Try it for yourself
Want to exercise outside, but not sure where to start? Watch our exclusive videos below for inspiration!

Ink eraser
This article needs additional citations for verification. (June 2014) (Learn how and when to remove this template message)
An ink eraser is an instrument used to remove ink from a writing surface, more difficult than removing pencil markings. Older types are a metal scraper, which scrapes the ink off the surface, and an eraser similar to a rubber pencil eraser, but with additional abrasives, such as sand, incorporated. Fibreglass erasers also work by abrasion. These erasers physically remove the ink from the paper. There is some unavoidable damage with most types of paper and ink, where the paper absorbs some ink, but not all.
The chemical ink eradicator contains a substance that reacts with some inks removing their pigmentation and hiding the writing.[1]
Metal ink erasers[edit]
Metal ink erasers were generally used before chemical ink erasers were introduced, and when permanent writing was done in ink. The erasers were essentially small knives.
Chemical ink erasers[edit]
The chemical ink eraser was invented by the German manufacturer Pelikan in the 1930s, and was introduced as a novelty in Germany in 1972 under the name Tintentiger (ink tiger).[1]
Chemical ink erasers break down royal blue ink by disrupting the geometry of the dye molecules in ink so that light is no longer filtered. The molecules are disrupted by sulfite or hydroxide ions binding to the central carbon atoms of the dye.[2] The ink is not destroyed by the erasing process, but is made invisible. It can be transformed back into a visible work with aldehydes.
The eradicator works only with royal blue ink. It discolors black ink to a rust brown and changes the hue of non-standard blues, limiting its usefulness.

The Forest Service is waiving fees at hundreds of recreation sites across the country on Saturday, Sept. 24 in recognition of Public Lands Day.
The Forest Service has more than 60 project sites for initiatives across the country participating in this hands-on, national volunteer effort to improve America's lands. Local Forest Service activities may range from building and maintaining trails, cleaning waterways, pulling invasive weeds to sprucing up campgrounds.
"Public Lands Day provides a great opportunity for people from all walks of life to get out and enjoy our beautiful forests and grasslands," said U.S. Forest Service Chief Tom Tidwell. "In many parts of the country, late September is the perfect time to view amazing fall colors as you get out and enjoy the woods."
This year's theme supports President Obama's Great Outdoors (AGO) initiative as well as First Lady Michelle Obama's Let's Move Outside program. AGO helps to raise awareness about the challenges natural resources face today and the benefits public lands offer Americans. Let's Move Outside promotes regular outdoor activity to help kids maintain a healthy weight, boost immunity and lower stress.
The annual National Public Lands Day coordinated by the National Environmental Education Foundation with the support of the Forest Service and other federal agencies, focuses on educating the public about the importance of natural resources and the need for shared stewardship on the land.

this & that
Hillary Clinton's trip to the eastern Congo is all over the news.
- My friend and fellow eastern Congo researcher, Barnard College assistant professor Severine Autesserre, gave an excellent interview to Martin Savidge on World Focus this evening; check out her wonderful explanation of what the U.S. should be doing to help end the crisis there.
- We here at TIA HQ are incredibly flattered to have been quoted in some pretty cool places this week. Definitely check out Georgianne Nienaber's excellent, heartbreaking reflection on the poor coverage of Africa that pervades Western news outlets for the Huffington Post, as well as World Focus' coverage of blog posts on the Congo rape crisis. (I have to admit that hearing Martin Savidge read something I wrote was pretty cool, even if it was about such a depressing issue.)
- Amanda and Kate of Wronging Rights point out some of the delicious/appalling ironies of the U.S. government's decision to send camcorders to the Congo, including but not limited to the lack of electricity and sending handheld electronic devices into a conflict blamed on the mineral trade.
- The U.S. Special Envoy to Sudan, Scott Gration, pens a "This I Believe" column on the country's situation. I wish we had more people like him involved in U.S. Africa policy.
- Thought on one of Ethiopia's supreme cultural values.
- Karl Rove let politics win out over the integrity of the judicial system? Shocking.
- College credit for commenting on blogs? Only at Southwestern Seminary.
- The neocons love Jon Stewart because he's a grown-up who lets them talk.

Cooling ponds at Sellafield nuclear plant. These are used as temporary storage for nuclear waste.
The burial of radioactive materials is one touted solution to radioactive waste disposal. WIPP in New Mexico, Yucca Mountain in Nevada, Gorleben in Germany, proposed sites in the UK, Russia, Australia and elsewhere are among the places where nuclear engineers claim to have 'solved' the nuclear waste problem. However, at present, there are no known disposal routes for long-lived radioactive materials. The burial of these materials must not be confused with their safe containment and isolation from the environment.
One of the most likely mechanisms of pollution in connection with waste disposal in rock is the contamination of groundwater. Underground waters may come into contact with radioactive elements that have leached out from the waste and contaminate the drinking water of both local and distant communities. This is already happening in France.
Then some favour storage the on-reactor-site fuel pools that often holdmost of the high-level waste that has been generated by the reactor. Fuel pools were not designed for more than temporary storage. There are many hazards associated with fuel pools, including the potential for loss of coolant that could result in spontaneous combustion of the fuel, or in some circumstances, nuclear meltdown of the pool.
Until something safer is developed the only acceptable way to store radioactive materials is in on-site, above-ground, dry storagesystems. These systems secure high-level waste from accidental or deliberate break-ins; keep the waste separate from people and the environment, preventing exposure and contamination; make it easy to monitor the waste over long periods; and make it easier and safer to access the waste if we invent better ways to manage it. This system is already used by some power stations, which keep their spent nuclear fuel rods in above-ground dry stores.
But of course, the only real solution is to stop creating the waste.

'Dynamics AX 2012' to be released in the third quarter of 2011
Microsoft has announced the formal product name of its next-generation Dynamics AX enterprise resource planning solution.
"Dynamics AX 2012" is the new name for the product, which just last week was known only by its "6" code name. The announcement came as part of the Microsoft Dynamics AX Technical Conference, which kicked off in full force yesterday. The event continues this week at Microsoft's campus at Redmond, Wash.
The name change has nothing to do with product availability. Microsoft still expects to release Dynamics AX 2012 in the third quarter of 2011.
For this release, Microsoft has been promoting better support for developers and partners through an improved integration with other Microsoft software, as well as a model-driven layered architecture that offers better controls and less coding.
Microsoft made those changes in Dynamics AX 2012 to address company needs, according to Guy Weismantel, a director of ERP marketing at Microsoft.
"Companies today do not have the time or interest to send dozens of employees to multi-week trainings; they do not have the resources in their IT departments to maintain a multitude of outdated, unsupported applications and continue to patch them together," Weismantel wrote in a Microsoft blog announcing the name change.
In addition to making things simpler for developers via modeling, Microsoft has a tighter integration between Dynamics AX 2012 and other Microsoft products, such as Microsoft Office 2010, SharePoint 2010, SQL Server 2008 R2 and Visual Studio 2010. This integration reduces the need to use middleware with Dynamics AX 2012, according to Kees Hertogh, a director at Microsoft Business Solutions, who provided an interview to Dynamics developer Brandon George in this blog post.
The integration is particularly notable with Office 2010, according to Hertogh. He said that Microsoft has been "blurring the lines" between the user interfaces of Microsoft Dynamics AX 2012 and Microsoft Office 2010. Hertogh also said in the interview that SSRS, or SQL Server Reporting Services, will work "more natively" with the new Dynamics AX release.
In other Dynamics news, Microsoft announced market expansion plans for Microsoft Dynamics AX for Retail R2. The news was delivered at last week's National Retail Federation conference. Dynamics AX for Retail R2 was released in August, but Microsoft now predicts product availability in more than 50 countries by Feb. 1 of this year.
Microsoft also launched Dynamics CRM 2011 Online this week.

Scientists were able to narrow in on the location in Maine where a meteorite fell on Tuesday morning.
Rob Matson and Marc Fries, aerospace scientists, were able to create a map to calculate where the meteorite fell in Maine.
According to the Maine Mineral and Gem Museum, the zone is an area three miles directly north of Rangelely and extends for about 10 miles.
The latest news from around the state
The smaller meteorites are found where the zone is the widest which is where the zone begins.
The museum is offering rewards for any parts of the meteorite that are collected and $20,000 for any specimens that are larger than one kilogram or 2.2 pounds.

The Rainbow Bridge
By the edge of a woods, at the foot of a hill,
Is a lush, green meadow where time stands still.
Where the friends of man and woman do run,
When their time on earth is over and done.
For here, between this world and the next,
Is a place where each beloved creature finds rest.
On this golden land, they wait and they play,
Till the Rainbow Bridge they cross over one day.
No more do they suffer, in pain or in sadness,
For here they are whole, their lives filled with gladness.
Their limbs are restored, their health renewed,
Their bodies have healed, with strength imbued.
They romp through the grass, without even a care,
Until one day they start, and sniff at the air.
All ears pricked forward, eyes dart front and back,
Then all of a sudden, one breaks from the pack.
For just at that instant, their eyes have met;
Together again, both person and pet.
So they run to each other, these friends from long past,
The time of their parting is over at last.
The sadness they felt while they were apart,
Has turned into joy once more in each heart.
They embrace with a love that will last forever,
And then, side-by-side, they cross over ... together.

"FM-200 these types of suppression systems fill the room with an inert gas that puts out the fire without damage to equipment or occupants."
from this site:
I'd say there would be no damage (other than fire related damage…)
As far as inadvertent activation, I'm not sure… When was the last time your fire alarm system was falsely triggered? That would be a factor of the triggering system and the environment that it is in.

Canada column for Sunday, June 24/12
(c) By Jim Fox
Might there some day be another Trudeau leading Canada?
With the Liberals looking for a new leader, polls indicate Canadians would be almost twice as likely to vote for the party with Justin Trudeau as the leader.
Now that interim leader Bob Rae surprisingly said he will not seek the job, pressure is mounting on the Montreal politician who is the eldest son of the late former prime minister Pierre Trudeau.
Trudeau, 40, would attract 33 percent of the vote according to a Canadian Press Harris-Decima poll – far more drawing power than other Liberals.
The poll showed that former astronaut and Montreal politician Marc Garneau was a distant second at 18 percent to Trudeau, the highest profile federal Liberal in Canada.
There are no official contenders so far as the Liberals seek to rebuild from a devastating federal election loss last year that put them third behind the governing Conservatives and the New Democrats.
Even with Trudeau, the poll found that 67 percent of respondents would be "unlikely" to vote Liberal, with the number rising to 82 percent to 89 percent with another leader.

Hello everyone it was a rainy chilly day in New Jersey today, so I decided to find that spot for my new plaque!!
I mentioned in a post last week about a new cloche and plaque I recently received as gifts. I showed the cloche in its new spot already and tonight I thought I would show the new placement of my plaque and another change to my office shelf. I decided to place my plaque on my shelf because it is a good way to change on and off between this and a picture I place there in the fall and winter. I changed out the plate also to another plate from my wine plate collection. This brightens up my shelf for the summer months. I believe these little subtle changes give vignettes a new appeal, no matter how subtle they are.

Safina's Song is the Silent Spring for our time. The book is a page turner. But unlike the phantasmagorical novels of Michael Crichton or Peter Benchley, where a little science is thrown in to give the plot an aura of verisimilitude, Safina's book is all true and wilder and more frightening. . . . I loved this book.

Song for the Blue Ocean is one of those revolutionary works that permanently alter our view of the subject.

Safina's…bright new voice joins that influential chorus, which includes Rachel Carson and Jacques Cousteau, of scientists turned eloquent ocean advocates.

I feel like it's a very "foodie" ingredient and I'm supposed to be obsessed with it and order it whenever it's on a menu.
But the truth of the matter is, I don't love it.
Most of the time, it tastes to me like I'm taking a big bite of the ocean, and if you've ever been crushed by a wave and taken in a mouthful of seawater, it's not always the most pleasant experience.
That said, there are some instances where I can enjoy and appreciate the unique flavor and "umami" it brings to a dish. For example, one of my last nights in Greece a couple years ago, we ate at a nice Italian restaurant in Mykonos for my friend Josh's birthday. They had an uni pasta dish so I decided to try it. And lo and behold... I liked it! That said, it was still very rich and I couldn't finish the whole serving (especially after wine and appetizers), but I liked it enough to try my own version here on the blog.
If you've never had uni before, you may be wondering what exactly it is. Uni is the Japanese word for Sea Urchin. It's the only edible part of the urchin, which is black and spiny, with this orange fleshy stuff inside of it. Often, people mistakenly refer to the uni as the roe or eggs... but it's technically the gonads... which produces the roe. Grossed out yet? Yeah, me too, don't worry. Making it even more unappetizing is the appearance and texture. They sort of look like little mini beef tongues. Mmmm.... fishy beef tongues. Sign me up!
But unlike a beef tongue, uni is actually very creamy and custardy (is that a word?) At sushi restaurants, it's often served raw, and I've also had it atop toast at a nice restaurant. But for this dish, I'm using the creamy consistency to my advantage to create a delicious pasta sauce that is slightly cooked when mixed into the hot pasta.
As for where to find it, your best bet is a high quality Japanese market. Lucky for me, one recently opened in the town where I live, so I was able to get some fresh uni there. It wasn't clearly marked how much this was weight-wise, but based on other recipes I've seen, I think it was about 3-4 ounces or 120 grams. It usually will come in a little wooden box. It should look somewhat firm, and not slimy or mushy at all (you should be able to make out the individual pieces.) This box ran me about $23.
As for the rest of the ingredients, this is just a basic carbonara recipe, with eggs, butter and pancetta (Italian bacon essentially). For the pasta, you can easily use a spaghetti or a linguine, but I opted for a bucatini, which is slightly thicker and hollow. It may also be marked as perciatelli (same thing) so if you want to try this type of pasta, be on the lookout for both.
I bought a 4 ounce package of already diced pancetta to help cut down on the prep time. Start sautéing it over medium heat until the fat renders and the meat is cooked on the borderline of becoming crispy. (Mmmmm... bacon.)
Meanwhile, you can start the uni sauce. If you'd like to garnish with a few pieces, I would reserve the best 4 or so pieces of uni, and then add the rest to a food processor or blender, along with 2 tablespoons of olive oil and a pinch of red pepper flakes. Process until you get a smooth, creamy sauce. (Only takes 20 seconds or so).
This seems like a good time to point out the amazing photography work of my awesome and talented boyfriend, Justin. Always makes a recipe post more enjoyable (and smoother) when I don't have to stop down to take my own photos. (Not to mention the beautiful artistic quality!)
Some of the recipes for uni pasta I found online recommended passing the uni through a fine mesh sieve. But to be honest, I found that step cumbersome, unnecessary, and slightly revolting. Soooo.... I'm gonna say that as long as you blend it up properly, you will get the consistency you need. To the uni concoction, I added 2 whole eggs plus an additional egg yolk (all at room temperature) to make this a true carbonara (egg in the sauce.) Set aside.
This is a cool shot of the pasta so you can see that it's actually hollow. The name bucatini comes from the Italian word "buco" which means "hole." Or the Neopolitan version perciatelli coming from "perciato" which means "pierced." Regardless, it's fun and you should check it out if you can find some. Boil until al dente in slightly salted water, and make sure to reserve about a half cup of the cooking liquid for the sauce.
Once you've reserved some of the cooking water, you can drain the cooked pasta in a colander. (Don't rinse!)
Return the hot noodles to the hot pan, and slowly incorporate the uni/egg mixture into the noodles, gently tossing the noodles as you pour. Add two tablespoons of room temperature butter a little at a time until the butter has melted. Next, add some of the pasta water in the same manner, until you have a nice "saucey" consistency (you may or may not need all of the pasta water.) Add the cooked pancetta, along with any of the rendered fat and toss well to combine.
From here, you can plate your pasta. This should make either 2 large dinner servings, or 4 smaller, appetizer servings.
Sprinkle with red pepper flakes, if desired, and garnish with a piece or two of raw uni (again, if desired.) Personally, the raw uni kind of grossed me out (especially after working with it), so I wouldn't want any of it on my plate... but I'm not gonna tell you how to live your uni pasta life.
Carbonara traditionally uses grated Parmesan in the sauce, but since I subbed the uni for the cheese, it didn't really need it. Also, there's some differing views on the use of cheese on seafood dishes, but I think in this instance it's ok, so feel free to top with a little Parmesan, or don't. Whatever your little heart desires.
I'll be completely honest with you, Justin and I didn't think we were going to like it... BUT... I am happy to report that it was DELICIOUS. The uni flavor was very subtle, you kind of got it on the back end of each bite. (Helps when bacon and butter are also involved.) But seriously, it was a delightfully rich and luxurious carbonara and I would absolutely recommend it, even if you haven't traditionally liked uni in the past. Thanks again to Justin for the awesome photos and for pushing me to try something out of my comfort zone. Bon Appétit!

Body in a variety of toxins reacts differently. Some identify and take action against them, so that they refer to the appropriate body detox , others cannot exclude, therefore "until further notice" stored in fat, kidneys, nervous system, joints... that does not accumulate in the blood, which could cause severe poisoning. Immune system not only serves to overcome the disease, but also deals with toxic substances.
If our body is overloaded with toxins, the immune system does not have the energy and resources to fighting the infection. Therefore, it often happens that a packet of paper handkerchiefs in my purse settle for several weeks. Increase of allergies caused by malfunction of the immune system.
Greater burden of toxins also occur when insufficient functioning of the detoxifying organs (liver, gastrointestinal tract, kidneys, intestines, skin, respiratory tract). The cause may be a chronic condition, but many times you can play in promoting excretion of toxins to help them. Josh Marvin Pearly Penile Papules
- If we every day to drink enough water, will be encouraged to functioning of the kidneys.
- Let us plenty of movement to spot - toxins are excreted through sweat and breath.
- Let's visit a sauna and plentiful spot.
- Eat healthy, organic food, without industrial additives (flavors, flavor enhancers, colorings, preservatives ...) and thus minimize body.
- We take care of digestion. At the closure of the poisons from the digested food should be eliminated, re-absorbed into the bloodstream and travel to the liver to be reprocessed and sent out of the body. Excessive amount of toxins in the blood causes you to feel weak, listless, sleepy...

On the redeye from San Francisco to Washington DC I sat through some awful Johnny Depp movie about J.M. Barrie, the guy who wrote "Peter Pan." I don't remember much, but I remember Depp saying Tinkerbell was really just a sparkle or a flash of light moving around - not some little waif in a Wilma Flintstone dress with wings. If you looked straight at her you couldn't see the little scamp - only by believing could you see Tink and then you could fly. Or something like that - it was late, the plane was crowded, I was groggy and cranky.
Trustable computing is sort of the Tinkerbell of the IT world. The Trusted Computing Group seems to believe, though they seemed much more enthusiastic when they were called the Trusted Computing Platform Alliance that many people loved to hate. Microsoft seems to believe in Trustworthy Computing, and had a strategy called Palladium, which morphed into Microsoft Next Generation Secure Computing Base, which Microsoft doesn't talk about much any more. Every time you try to look straight at this area, it seems to disappear. What's the dillyo?
I think the key to "trustworthy computing" is enabling a trusted execution environment. Today's PC hardware and operating system architecture dates back more than 20 years, when no one considered exposing PCs to open networks such as the Internet. This PC architecture can't assure that trusted software can run securely without untrusted software running at the same time. Without a trusted execution environment, digital content such as passwords and credit card numbers can never be safe on consumer or enterprise PCs.
A trusted execution environment is like the "VIP" room at a dance club. Only the elite are allowed to enter; everyone else has to dance in the public area. The club owner can decide to rent the VIP room to one party or allow several parties to share the space — but only he decides which parties are allowed in. These people can still destroy the place — nothing guarantees that they won't. However, because the club owner decides who to allow in, uninvited parties can't enter, eavesdrop on or disrupt the private parties.
Now, those club owners can get elitist and nasty, and look what happens - the Paris Hilton's of the world (and their nasty Tinkerbell dogs) come to power. Similarly, trusted execution environments could put a lot of control in the hands of the content owners - "you can only listen to my song (or run my software) using this program that only runs in the trusted execution environment, which happens to include software that will charge you every time you use it." Hey, what happened to fair use and my ability to make a few copies??
That's not necessarily a bad thing - the digital world has tipped the balance away from the content owners, maybe they need a break? As long as they don't break fair use... But it can't happen until we have fundamental changes in PC hardware and software - and that won't happen until at least the Longhorn timeframe (2007 or so), so for now you have to clap your hands and believe - trustable computing is out there if we only believe.

Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger admitted his side had deserved to lose after Blackburn's 2-0 victory threw the Premiership race wide open again.
The Gunners looked off-colour and tired as Blackburn surged into seventh place in the table with goals from Damien Duff and Tugay.
Wenger said: "We did not have the legs to win the game and were beaten too many times in 50-50s and lost balls we usually don't lose. At the end of the day we deserved to lose the game - we were not unlucky."
Blackburn boss Graeme Souness was jubilant with his side's display as they did the double over the champions
He said: "I will go home, see my three-year-old son and open a bottle of champagne - a good one.
"It was a good performance by us but it was a good time to play them, and we were determined to give them a good game."

Elements that Lead to Denver Roof Repair
May 24, 2017
Given that the home is on the front lines of protecting you and the quality of your belongings, there are many things that can lead to roof damage. There are also other elements too that can lead to issues. From weather damage and the negative impacts of improper care to when it is important to invest in roofing assistance, learn the ins and outs of Denver roof repair.
Damage from Weather
Weather is one of the top reasons a roof can become damaged. Hail and winds from severe storms are the leading elements that damage a roof. Once hail gets to be a quarter of an inch or larger, it can dent or break down elements of your roof. They can damage or blow away shingles. This damage can lead to leaks on the interior of your home that can cause water to build up. Down the road this can ruin the quality of the wood and even mold can grow. Inclement weather from the winter can also lead to damage as well. Once too much ice or snow builds up on a roof, it can weigh it down. When this occurs, especially with ice, the added weight can lead to extra stress that damages a roof. In fact, if the weight it so heavy, extreme cases can lead to a roof collapse. In the winter, you also need to be aware of ice dams, which are buildups of ice on the edges of a roof that leads to a water flow build-up.
Negatives of Improper Care
If you are a homeowner, it is crucial that you take care of your roof. Over time if you fail to give your roof proper maintenance, or neglect fixes, your roof will deteriorate over time. First, it is important to inspect your roof a couple times per year to make sure there are not any missing or damaged shingles. It is best to fix or replace them to avoid leaks inside your home that can cause damage or promote the growth of mold. Leaks around your flashing and shingles can create poor ventilation. This will ultimately increase your utility bills, bring in unwanted pests and can encourage mold growth.
When to Invest in Assistance
Counting on the help of a local roofer can help you all year long with your roofing issues. As you make your bi-annual rounds to ensure your roof and flashing is intact and your gutters are not damaged. If they are and you are unable to repair them, it is important that you work with a roofer. They can inspect your home and roof and work with you to aid you with dealing with your insurance company on claims. You can also count on a go-to roofer to handle the maintenance on your roof and gutters.
Whether your roof has weather damage or has been neglected, The Roof Dr. can help. As Denver's premier roofer, they will ensure your roof gets back into the shape it needs to be in protect you and everyone in your home. If you are ready to care for your roof, make sure you read our

Rendang (Minang language : randang) is one of the traditional Minangkabau dishes using meat and coconut milk as the primary ingredient, which include spices are rich. I like to save lots of much more time cooking dinner in the summer and infrequently will prepare my mixture rice serving forward of time and refrigerate it. I make a few servings and then take it out for this dish or another fast meal that I'll cook through the week.
Settle in entrance of the fire with one among Good Housekeeping's triple-examined consolation food recipes. Once each sets of rice are cooked, mix them together and add chopped dates. It's mainly a dry meat curry, and for this recipe I've used pork, buy you possibly can really use any form of minced meat that you like – beef, hen, and even lamb would taste food.
To be able to infuse lobsters with Chinese language and different Asian flavors, Ching prepares a posh sauce of chiles, lemongrass, ginger and shrimp paste mixed in peanut oil and coconut milk, then marinates the boiled lobsters in it for a number of hours before grilling.
You can also make anything from: Spicy Peanut Soup, Stewed Hen in Coconut Milk, fried plantain, Pescado Frito con Tajadas (Honduran Fish and Chips) all the way in which to Baked Bananas (Bananas Assadas), Tres Leches cake and coconut bread if you find the suitable recipes which are simple to comply with.
One of the vital well-liked Thai seafood dishes is pla kapong neung manao (ปลาà¸à¸°à¸žà¸‡à¸™à¸¶à¹ˆà¸‡à¸¡à¸°à¸™à¸²à¸§), a steamed barramundi, lined in a sour lime juice sauce and stuffed with garlic and chilies. This collection of recipes uses whole grains—from brown rice to entire-wheat pasta—in a scrumptious variety of methods.
