Hot Pepper Noodles
Posted by Victoria at 7:00 AM
I love noodles in pretty much any shape or form. Whether they are Italian, Asian, or anything in between, they are at the forefront of my love and affection. Pad Thai is one of my favorites, and I was recently exploring other stir-fried rice noodle dishes that I can make to change things up a little in my kitchen.
This particular recipe derives from Penny's Noodle Shop in Chicago. This Thai eatery serves all the classics as well as these spicy hot pepper noodles. They make theirs with super wide rice noodles (think pad see ew), but I used the medium width I had on hand. Since my Pad Thai recipes uses 6 ounces of rice noodles, and this recipe uses 10 ounces, you can make both of these dishes using a 1 pound package of noodles (perfect math!).
That's exactly what I did, using what was leftover after making Pad Thai weeks earlier to make this bright-flavored Thai noodle dish. I particularly love the accent of fresh basil and juicy tomatoes that really counteract the spice from the sauce.
If you're looking for quick and satisfying Thai noodles, don't order take out. Look no further than this easy and colorful stir-fry, packed with protein from chicken breast and scrambled egg. You could also substitute an equivalent amount of thinly sliced beef for the chicken, or tofu if you'd like to keep if vegetarian (although beware that oyster sauce is not vegetarian if you go that route).
Hot Pepper Noodles
Serves 2 to 4
(Adapted from Penny's Noodle Shop in Chicago via Bon Appetit)
2 tablespoons oyster sauce
1 tablespoon Asian chili-garlic sauce
1 tablespoon reduced-sodium soy sauce
1/2 teaspoon sugar
10 ounces dried wide rice noodles (I used medium, because that's what I had)
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 garlic clove, finely chopped
1 8-ounce skinless, boneless chicken breast, cut into 3/4-inch pieces
1 red bell pepper, cut into 1-inch pieces
1 small onion, cut into 1-inch pieces
1/2 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
1 large egg, beaten to blend
1/2 cup fresh basil leaves, preferably Thai, roughly chopped
Stir oyster sauce, chili-garlic sauce, soy sauce, and sugar in a small bowl to combine; set sauce aside.
Cook noodles according to package directions. Drain, run under cold water to cool, snip a few times with kitchen shears, and set aside.
Heat oil in a large wok or skillet over medium-high heat; add garlic and cook, stirring often, until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add chicken and cook, tossing often, until cooked through, 3 to 4 minutes.
Add pepper, onion, tomatoes, and 2 tablespoons reserved sauce to pan and toss to combine. Cook for a few more minutes until the vegetables start to soften. Push the chicken and vegetables to the side of the wok and add the egg to the open space. When it begins to cook, gently scramble the egg until it's no longer runny, then stir it to combine with the chicken mixture.
Add noodles and remaining 2 tablespoons sauce and toss to combine. Add basil leaves and cook, tossing constantly, until noodles and vegetables are completely coated with sauce and heated through, about 2 minutes more. Serve immediately.

Wesley Chapel, Florida (high 82, low 59)
We got some bad news regarding some fellow rv friends.
After a long fight, Sherry passed away on Wednesday. Most of you know that she underwent a double lung transplant in August. Sadly, she never was able to leave the hospital after having multiple complications. Our thoughts and prayers go out to her family. Rest in peace Sherry.
Things like this remind you to not take anything for granted. Sherry was only 62 years old.
Yesterday, I rode along with Al to Indian Rocks Beach, where he had a pest control account to do. While he was spraying the house, I walked the beach and made a few friends.
It was warm and sunny and a great day to spend outdoors.
Unfortunately, we chose another option.
Since we were nearby, we decided to go to our first Trader Joe's. I think this is the first one in Florida and everyone told us we just had to go there.
Our first clue that this may have been a bad choice, was the parking lot was full and people were parking down the block.
The store was so crowded you couldn't even get to the shelves. Walking down the aisles, was next to impossible. People were getting on my nerves and I noticed more than one case of BO. I don't do crowds well, but since we were there, we wanted to at least see what they had.
Since we're vegans, we eat a lot of produce, and we weren't happy with the amount of fresh produce they had. They didn't even have fresh kale.
We walked around a few minutes, picked up a few things, then decided the check out lines were too long, so we left. There was even a line for the unisex restrooms (and I hate unisex restrooms.)
I thought Trader Joe's was different than it was. I thought they had more than wine and food products... like kitchen items. It seems more like a smaller version of Whole Foods, but since it was so crowded, we really didn't get to see what all they had to offer. So, we can now say we've been to Trader Joe's….. I'm sure we would have liked it much better if there hadn't been 8 million people there. I like Nutrition S'Mart better.
Should have stayed at the beach.
The sky was blue and there were some pretty cloud formations as we crossed over the Sunshine Skyway bridge.

Richard Alpert, also called Ricardus, is a long-time inhabitant of the Island and holds a form of leadership position with the Others, a group known to the DHARMA Initiative as the "Hostiles." According to Ben, Richard is a sort of "advisor." From his first chronological appearance in 1954 to current events on the Island, Richard perpetually appears to be in his late 30s or early 40s, whether on or off the Island. Only his hairstyle and manner of dress appear to change, and that change seems dependent on the circumstances surrounding him. He has credited Jacob, who like him appears ageless, for this unusual characteristic. In the outside world, he presented himself as a recruiter for Mittelos Bioscience, and helped bring Juliet to the Island in 2001.
Richard's first chronological appearance was at the Others' camp in 1954. It's unclear whether or not Richard was the leader of the Others during this period, because later it was revealed that two of his subordinates in 1954, Ellie and Charles Widmore, eventually became Leaders.
During this time period, the US government had sent military personnel to various Pacific islands to test hydrogen bombs. One such bomb, Jughead, was brought to the Island. Richard told the soldiers to leave the island. When they refused, the Others attacked and killed the troops. After the Others had buried the dead soldiers they took over their camp, weapons, clothes, tents, and other equipment. ("Jughead") Jughead was left on the island, undetonated.
At the camp, Richard was presented with Daniel, Miles and Charlotte, who had been captured by Ellie after flashing back to 1954. Accused of being with the military, Daniel decided that it was safer to follow the misconception and responded that they were in the military but were only scientists, which Ellie doubted. Richard questioned them and eventually believed that Daniel was a scientist. Daniel offered to disarm the bomb. Richard asked how he could trust that they weren't there on a suicide mission to detonate the bomb in retaliation for the killing of their soldiers. Daniel replied that he loved Charlotte and would not want any harm to come to her. Richard believed him and allowed Ellie to escort Daniel at gunpoint to the bomb. ("Jughead")
Before they left, a young Charles Widmore arrived at the camp, explaining that he was captured by people in the jungle. Widmore questioned Richard's leadership in trusting one of "them" (the military). Soon afterward, a bald man in his late-forties arrived at the camp, calling for Richard. Widmore ordered the man to stop at gun point. Richard approached and after introducing himself as John Locke, the man stated that he was sent by Jacob. Richard ordered Widmore to stand down.
In a tent Locke showed Richard the compass he had given him, and explained that he knew Richard in the future, where Locke is the leader of the Others. Richard expressed skepticism because of their strict selection process for a leader, which begins at a very young age. To prove his claims, Locke said that in two years he would be born in Tustin, California, and that Richard should go visit him. Locke then asked to know how to leave the Island, but Richard told him this was privileged information. Locke, who started to hear a time flash occurring, begged Richard to tell him, but before a hesitant Richard could answer the time jump occurred and Locke disappeared. ("Jughead")
In June of 1956, per adult Locke's suggestion, Richard Alpert visited the Tustin hospital where John Locke had been born prematurely a month earlier. Mrs. Locke was inquiring about putting the infant up for adoption when the nurse spotted Richard at the window. As he smiled at the confirmation that Locke had told him the truth, Mrs. Locke commented bemusedly that she did not know who he was. ("Cabin Fever")
Richard again entered Locke's life in 1961, when he visited the five-year-old while he was in foster care. Richard told Florence (John's foster mother) that he considered John special enough to join a school for "very special" children. ("Cabin Fever")
Richard noted a drawing on the wall of a black scribble, that is supposedly the smoke monster, attacking a person and he asked young John if he had drawn it, which he confirmed. He then tested Locke as part of the process of choosing the leader of the Others by presenting him with certain items: a baseball glove, a book of laws, a vial of sand, a compass, a comic book, and a knife. Locke was asked to identify which of these items were "already" his. Richard was pleased when Locke chose the compass and vial of sand, and smiled slightly as the child considered the book, but Locke ultimately chose the knife. At this, Richard turned cold and left, telling Florence that he was sorry to have wasted their time. ("Cabin Fever")
Years later, however, in 1972, Richard again contacted Locke through his high school science teacher, Gellert, offering Locke a chance to attend a summer science camp sponsored by Mittelos Laboratories. Locke refused to attend the camp since he is constantly bullied for geeky interest in science and wants to play sports. No further attempts to recruit him have been shown. ("Cabin Fever") In 1977 Richard would state to Jack that these three visits led him to find nothing "particularly special" about Locke. ("The Incident, Parts 1 & 2")
Richard was one of the "Hostiles" present on the island alongside the DHARMA Initiative. In 1973, a young Ben encountered him after taking off into the jungle, searching for an apparition of his dead mother. Richard, at this time sporting long hair, was dressed in primitive clothing but had a twentieth century holster on his right hip. Richard reassured Ben and asked why he was out in the jungle alone. When Ben explained what he'd seen, and that she had died off the Island, Richard was visibly interested in this development, but told him to return home. Ben, however, pleaded with Richard to let him return to the "Hostiles" with him. Considering this, the older man told him that this might be possible, but that Ben would need to be "very, very patient." ("The Man Behind the Curtain")
In 1974, Richard strode into the Barracks after dark, causing general panic. He placed a torch in the ground and waited, until Horace Goodspeed came to meet him. Richard accused DHARMA of breaking their truce by having killed two of his men. Sawyer told Horace that he will talk to Richard describing him as "your buddy out there with the eyeliner". Sawyer, having been stranded in that year after Locke turned the frozen wheel, emerged from a cabin and confronted Richard. Sawyer told Richard he was not a member of the DHARMA Initiative, as Richard originally assumed, citing his knowledge of the events in 1954 as proof. The two made a deal that the truce between DHARMA and the Others will remain unbroken (Sawyer having killed two of his men, an act that, due to him being a third party reacting in self-defense, does not constitute violation of the truce) if the Initiative surrendered the body of Paul, the man killed in the confrontation between the two groups, as payment for the two deaths. ("LaFleur")
In 1977, Sawyer and Kate, carrying the seriously wounded young Ben, attempted to find the Others so they could help Ben. After they were captured by the Others, Sawyer demanded that they be taken to Richard, because Ben's death would have repercussions on both the DHARMA Initiative and the Others. After telling them that Ben would remember none of this and would be "one of them" (an Other) for good after this, Richard carried Ben through the jungle and brought him into the Temple. ("Whatever Happened, Happened") After taking Ben back to the Others' camp, Richard was met by Charles Widmore, who berated him for bringing the boy back to camp. Richard informed Charles that it was Jacob's orders. ("Dead Is Dead")
Short time later, Daniel Faraday infiltrated the Others' camp, threatening them with a gun and demanding to meet Ellie. Richard tried to calm him down by telling that Ellie was not present there at the moment. Upon hearing that, Daniel demanded to know where Richard had buried Jughead. Pointing his gun at Richard, Daniel told that he would count to three. Before he could do so, he was shot from behind by Ellie. Richard asked why she did it, to which Ellie replied that Daniel was threatening Richard. He then watched as Daniel revealed that he was Ellie's son, before dying from his wound. ("The Variable")
Charles Widmore then appeared with Jack and Kate as prisoners. After Ellie read Daniel's journal and had a conversation with the two, she ordered to release them despite Widmore's protests. She then asked Richard to accompany them to the Jughead. Richard, Jack, Kate, Ellie and Erik soon reached a lake, which hid the passage to the bomb underneath the water. Kate tried to go away, making Erik aim his gun at her. However, Erik was shot down by Sayid, who suddenly appeared out of the jungle. With Kate left and Sayid joined, the rest soon reached The Tunnels, where the Jughead had been hidden. ("Follow the Leader")
While Sayid was working to remove the core of the Jughead to bring it to the Swan Station, Richard asked Jack if he knew John Locke. He told him that Locke had marched into their camp twenty-three years ago saying he was their leader, and that he had been off the island three times now to visit Locke, but had no reason to believe that John was special. Jack told him that he knew who Locke was, and told Richard not to give up on him.
The group then traveled further down the tunnels, where Richard used a hammer to break down a wall leading to a house in the Barracks. Ellie then decided that she should go into the house first, but Richard knocked her out with his gun, telling Jack and Sayid that Ellie ordered him to help them get the bomb, which he did, and that he was just protecting their leader. ("The Incident, Parts 1 & 2")
Richard was next seen in 1989 at the Others' camp where Ben and Charles shared a heated argument over Danielle Rousseau and her daughter Alex. ("Dead Is Dead")
On December 19, 1992, Richard led the Hostiles in the Purge when they slaughtered the DHARMA Initiative population with gas from their own station, the Tempest. After the gas had dissipated, he emerged from the Barracks with the other Hostiles to meet Ben, then in his thirties, who had just returned from personally killing his father in the same way. Richard offered to go out and bring Roger's body back, but Ben coldly told him to leave the corpse where it was. The other dead members of the DHARMA Initiative were taken to a mass grave in the jungle. ("The Man Behind the Curtain") At some point, Ben became the leader of the group, succeeding Charles Widmore, which would evolve to become what Rousseau and the survivors of Oceanic Flight 815 would call "the Others."
Sometime after the Purge, Richard was seen in the Barracks where the DHARMA Initiative used to reside. Richard approached Ben and informed him that the submarine was about to leave, telling Ben that he did not need to see its passenger off if he didn't want to. Ben felt he needed to, however, and went to the dock, where he saw a handcuffed Charles Widmore being exiled from the island. ("Dead Is Dead")
In 2001, Richard approached Juliet Burke in Miami. This meek fertility doctor was still under the watchful eye of her ex-husband, Edmund, as she conducted experiments in the hopes of impregnating her barren sister, Rachel. Ben sent Richard to recruit Juliet in the name of Mittelos Bioscience in his attempts to find the reason and cure for pregnant woman dying on the island. Alpert's assistant referred to him as "Dr. Alpert;" however. Juliet addressed him as "Mr. Alpert," suggesting that he might hold a Ph.D. but not be a doctor of medicine. Juliet declined after a cheerful slideshow about the Mittelos facility, supposedly located just outside Portland. She then joked bitterly that the only way she would be able to join Mittelos was if Edmund were hit by a bus.
Later, Juliet discovered that her experiments had been successful, but as she told Edmund about it, he stepped off the curb and was hit by a bus bearing an Apollo Bar advertisement. After Juliet identified Edmund's body, she was once again approached by Richard in the morgue, this time accompanied by Ethan. She was stunned as she remembered her dark joke to Richard, though he denied even remembering the comment. He once again offered Juliet a six-month job at Mittelos, carefully telling her that the facility wasn't "quite in Portland." ("Not in Portland")
Later, as Juliet and Rachel said goodbye to each other at Herarat (an anagram reference to Amelia Earhart) Aviation, Richard and Ethan came down to greet them, telling them that unfortunately, they had to say goodbye at the gate. After Juliet signed the appropriate paperwork, Richard added powder to a glass of orange juice for her. When she asked warily about it, he was very forthcoming about it being a strong sedative for the "intense" journey. After Juliet drank the contents of the glass, Alpert presumably traveled to the Island on the Galaga with Ethan and Juliet. ("One of Us")
On September 22nd, 2004, moments after Flight 815 crashed onto the Island, Ben took Juliet to the Flame Station, where Mikhail patched them through to a live broadcast of Richard filming in Miami. The broadcast showed Juliet's sister and nephew having a happy moment at a playground, with the date illustrated by Richard filming a Miami Journal newspaper header. Though Richard was not visible in the footage, Ben referred to him by name and urged him to return quickly, mentioning the possibility of new "visitors". ("One of Us")
Eighty days after the crash of Oceanic Flight 815, Ben instructed Richard to bring him "the man from Tallahassee." The next day, after Locke blew up the Galaga, Richard helped Ben bring him to a room where that man was revealed to be Locke's father, Anthony Cooper. ("The Man from Tallahassee")
The Others, including Richard, soon abandoned the barracks and began heading for the Temple. That night while they made camp at the ruins along the way, Ben insisted that Locke kill his own father, but Locke refused. The next morning after the resulting public humiliation, Richard approached Locke, who was sitting on the hillside watching the camp. He introduced himself to Locke, who presumably did not remember his childhood encounter with him, and promptly took the conversation to a more serious level. He said that Ben had known Locke wouldn't kill his father. In fact, Ben wanted him to fail in front of the group. Richard mentioned that they were all there for reasons more important than the fertility issues Ben had been focusing on. He then presented Locke with a file on Sawyer, suggesting that he should kill Cooper instead. Locke, confused, asked why Sawyer would want to kill Cooper; Richard simply told him to read the file. Richard later followed Ben and the Others as they left the ruins (and Locke) in order to make camp elsewhere. ("The Brig")
Two days later, at the temporary camp, as Ben reminisced over a wooden doll he had received from Annie as a child, Richard entered and asked what it was. Ben explained that it was a birthday present and asked cryptically, "You do remember birthdays, don't you, Richard?", to which he received no response. Richard asked Ben if he wanted the tape recorder returned to The Staff for Juliet, prompting alarm in Ben, as he thought Richard had already done so. (In reality, Locke had delivered it to Sawyer.) They were interrupted when Locke returned to camp with Cooper's body over his shoulders. Richard looked on as Ben reluctantly agreed to take Locke to Jacob, a startling turn of events. ("The Man Behind the Curtain")
When Ben returned alone, Richard asked what had happened, but Ben didn't reveal that he'd shot Locke, to whom Jacob had appealed for "help." Tense and irritable, Ben ignored Richard's protest against his plan to immediately raid the survivors' camp and take all the women. ("Greatest Hits")
Following the raid on the beach camp, Ben learned that the majority of the survivors had left the camp, leading him to take Alex and intercept them. Richard asked to join the father and daughter, but Ben refused, telling him to take charge and lead the Others to The Temple, as planned. He apparently then led the Others to this mysterious location. ("Through the Looking Glass")
Ben contacted someone via a signal mirror while on his way to the Orchid Station. Later that day, it was implied to be Richard who had been contacted, when he showed up to intercept Sayid and Kate while they were searching for Jack. He told them to put their guns down, and when they refused, the remaining Others emerged from the surrounding bushes, guns at the ready. After disarming the two, Richard led them into the jungle. ("There's No Place Like Home, Part 1")
He then made a deal with Sayid and Kate that if they helped the Others rescue Ben, they could leave the Island on the helicopter. After ambushing the mercenaries from the freighter, Richard saved Sayid from Keamy by shooting the latter in the back, though not fatally as is later revealed.
Ben showed up and thanked Richard, who replied somewhat curtly, "My pleasure." He then informed Ben of the deal with Sayid and Kate, and Ben expressed his approval. Prior to leaving the Island via the Orchid, Ben told Locke that Richard and his people were two miles east of the station. Ben also said that Richard would answer all of Locke's questions about the Island and follow all his commands. Locke proceeded to the camp to be warmly welcomed by Richard and the Others. The two were talking when the sky began to glow as Ben began the process of moving the Island. Locke disappeared at this point, while Richard and the Others remained in the same time. ("There's No Place Like Home, Parts 2 & 3")
In 2007, Richard Alpert was working on a ship in a bottle when he was interrupted by the arrival of Jacob's Nemesis, pretending to be John Locke. "John" greeted him, saying it had been a while; three years, according to Richard. "John" then told Richard that they "had an errand to run" and he would explain everything on the way. A few moments later, the two were approached by Sun, who showed Richard the photo of her friends from 1977, and asked Richard if he remembered seeing them in that year. Richard replied that he remembered very well, as he himself had watched them all die. ("Follow the Leader")
Later that night, "John", Richard and Ben made their way to the Beechcraft. Before reaching their destination, "Locke" told Richard he expects to see Jacob later on; while Richard seemed surprised and reluctant, he agreed to listen to "Locke", now the leader of The Others. Once there, "John" gave Richard a medical kit and told him that a wounded man would come out of the jungle. Richard was told to extract the bullet from the man's leg and tell him that he should bring back everyone who had left the Island and that in order to do that, the man would have to die. "John" also told Richard to give his compass to the man. The man emerged from the jungle, limping. To Richard's and Ben's surprise, it was the actual John before his death, who was time-traveling as a result of the Island's move. ("Follow the Leader")
Unknowingly following Jacob's Nemesis's orders, Richard approached the actual John. The time-traveling Locke said that he had been shot by Ethan, and Richard replied, "Well, what comes around goes around," referring to the survivors shooting Ethan. John questioned how Richard even knew he was shot in the first place, to which Richard responded that "Locke" told him so. Locke denied this, and Richard answered, "Well, you will." (At the time, Richard did not know the man he thought was John Locke was actually Jacob's Nemesis.) Richard put on a pair of glasses and removed the bullet, demonstrating skills appropriate to a field medic. He covered the wound, told Locke to keep it clean and said the island would do the rest. ("Because You Left")
Explaining that John was about to "move on," Richard quickly explained what Locke had to do. Richard told Locke that the next time they met, Richard would not recognize him and gave John a compass so John would be able to provide proof that they had met before. The last instruction Richard had for John was that in order to save the island Locke would have to bring the Oceanic Six (who had returned to civilization) back to the Island. As the Island started to "skip" again, John asked Richard how he could do that, and Richard replied, "You're gonna have to die, John." Seconds later, Locke vanished. ("Because You Left")
Richard made his way back to "John" and Ben, and seemed satisfied that the time-traveling John believed him. Richard was happy that Locke did not actually have to die (which he actually did) to which "Locke" revealed to him that he did. ("Follow the Leader")
Shortly after, Richard, Ben and "John" made their way back to camp. "Locke" introduced himself to his people, and informed them that Richard is going to take him, along with the rest of them, to see their unseen leader, Jacob. Quietly, Richard wondered if "Locke" will only cause trouble, to which Ben exclaimed that this is the reason he tried to kill him, a comment which elicited a somewhat surprised/ shocked response from Richard ("Follow the Leader")
Richard led "John" and the rest of The Others to the ruins of the statue, informing him that this is where Jacob lived. Along the way he told "Locke" the reason for him being the way he was(seemingly unaging), was because of Jacob and he suspected that Locke's 'apparent' resurrection may have something to do with Jacob as well. Once they arrived at the statue ruins, "Locke" wanted to take Ben with him to see Jacob but Richard objected, stating that the rules he follows says that only the Leader can meet Jacob and there can only be one leader on the island at a time. Despite hearing this and accusing Richard of making the rules up as he goes along , "Locke" insisted on Ben's inclusion and Richard eventually gave in to his demand. Richard pushed in a stone at the base of the Statue allowing access and departed after telling 'Locke' to say "hi" to Jacob.
Later, Ilana and her group arrived and asked for "Richardus". Richard came forward and corrected her by saying, "Actually, it's Richard." Ilana asked him the question, "What lies in the shadow of the statue?" To which Richard responded (in Latin), "He who shall protect/save us all", apparently the correct answer. Ilana then said that she had something to show him. She opened the crate she and her people had been carrying around to reveal the corpse of John Locke. Richard asked Ilana where she found him and she explained thus revealing to Richard and all the Others that the "John Locke" whom Richard had been following was apparently an impostor. ("The Incident, Parts 1 & 2")
After the revelation of Locke's body, Richard attempts to prevent Ilana and Bram entrance to the statue, claiming that asking "what lies in the shadow of the statue" does not make them in charge. Immediately after, Ben walks out of the statue, and asks Richard to go inside and talk to Locke. Richard, frustrated, drags Ben to the Ajira crate and tosses him on the ground, bringing Ben face-to-face with a truly dead Locke.
In the following morning, Richard sees the Temple's message flair, indicating Jacob's death. Just then, Jacob's nemesis descends from the statue; while the Others point their loaded guns at him. In a panic, Richard screams for them to not shoot. Jacob's nemesis approaches Richard, and comments it is good to see him "out of [his] chains." Richard seems to recognize who "Locke" truly is, yet the nemesis attacks him and brutally knocks him unconscious. Lifting Richard on his back, the nemesis declares to the rest of the Others he is very disappointed in all of them. ("LA X, Parts 1 & 2")

Sound Compressor Settings in Home Recording
When you use a sound compressor to keep transients at bay during recording, you only want to compress the highest transient levels — the ones that would overload your system or eat up your headroom — and you want to do this so that you don't hear the compressor kicking in.
Even though every instrument contains different levels of transient signals and each person who plays an instrument creates different amounts of extreme transients when he or she plays, keep the following points in mind as you choose your settings:
Keep the threshold high. With a high threshold setting, your compressor only kicks in as the signal gets close to distorting. For most instruments, use a setting of about –6dB. Some instruments with very high transients, such as percussion and drums, can handle a setting like –10dB.
Set your threshold so that when the extreme transient happens, it triggers the compressor only a couple of decibels, and the nontransient material (the main sound of the instrument) doesn't trigger the compressor.
Adjust the ratio to the material. For high-transient material (such as drums and percussion), choose a higher ratio, and for lower-transient material (like strummed or bowed string instruments), choose a lower ratio setting. Try to use a ratio that relates to the level of the transient over the nontransient signal.
Because percussion instruments have initial signal peaks (transients) that are much stronger than the body of the instrument's sound, you can compress this peak without affecting the main sound of the instrument. By matching the ratio to the degree of the transient this way, you can create a more even level without changing the sound characteristics of the instrument.
Use a short attack. Transients happen at the initial attack of the instrument. This means that if you want to compress the transient, the compressor must kick in right away when this signal happens. A setting of 1 millisecond or less is optimal.
Use a short release. Transients happen quickly, and they last a very short amount of time. When you try to control these signals during tracking, you only want to catch the transient itself — and no other part of the instrument's sound. Setting a short release time — start with about 10 milliseconds — ensures that your compressor doesn't linger on to affect the body of the instrument's recorded sound.
Don't mess with the gain. Because you're only catching the highest transient signals and you're only compressing them a tiny bit, you don't need to add or reduce any of the signal that's going through the compressor. Leave the gain control at 0dB.
When using a compressor during tracking, keep the following two points in mind:
You can always add compression to a recorded track, but you can never take it away. If you're not sure how much compression to apply to a particular situation, you're much better off erring on the side of too little because you can always run the sound through another compressor later.
If you can hear a change in the sound of your signal, you probably have the compressor set too high. The reason that you use a compressor on the front end is to eliminate extreme transients, which you can't hear when you play. If your compression setting changes the sound, you should slightly reduce the compression setting (unless you're going for that effect.

Cushing's Syndrome
What is Cushing's syndrome
Cushing's syndrome (also called Hyperadrenocorticism) is a disease of the endocrine system. It is caused by an abnormality of the pituitary gland, at the base of the brain, which makes the body produce excessive amounts of cortisol – the body's natural steroid hormone.
What are the signs of Cushing Syndrome?
- Increased thirst.
- Increased appetite.
- Increased urination.
- Pot bellied appearance.
- Loss of top-line muscle.
- A thick wavy hair coat in the summer – failure to shed the winter coat.
- Chronic laminitis.
- Lethargy.
How is the disease confirmed?
The test regime we now recommend is to measure endogenous ACTH, cortisol, insulin and glucose from venous blood samples at 0900 hours before the morning feed and in a quiet environment. This is a simple test to use, although the blood cells have to be separated from the plasma and the sample kept frozen prior to testing. This test does not run the risk of inducing or worsening laminitis following the administration of a corticosteroid. It will differentiate between pituitary dependent Cushing's cases and those animals with obesity related laminitis.
Is it treatable?
There are a number of treatments available for the treatment of Cushing's disease. The principle behind each treatment is very similar. Each treatment is life-long. Within the brain a substance called Dopamine prevents overproduction of hormones. Serotonin is another naturally occurring substance, which has the opposite effect. So, to treat your horse you can either use a drug which mimics dopamine (Bromocriptine or more commonly used, Pergolide) or a drug which blocks the effect of Serotonin (Cyproheptidine). Trilostane, a drug that blocks cortisol, is another alternative, which is about to be licensed in the UK.
How can you help?
The increase in cortisol is similar to the effects of stress; decreasing the stress experienced by your horse help minimise the effects of the disease. Reduce stress by:
- Sticking to a strict routine.
- Provide a safe comfortable, quiet haven for the horse.
- Avoiding turnout with aggressive horses.
- Keeping feed and water conveniently located.
- Clipping the horse in warm weather and using rugs when cold.
- Keep the horse well groomed to minimize skin disease.
- Inspect the hooves daily, keep in good shape, and monitor for signs of laminitis (see above).
- Minimize contact with new horses.
- Immunize as necessary.
- Worm regularly.
- Check dental health.
- Provide a high quality, easily digestible diet.
Prognosis and Long Term Outcome?
Treatment is lifelong, as is management. This condition cannot be cured but horses can continue in comfort for many years. Laminitis is the most serious complication.
DISCLAIMER: This advice is intended for use by registered clients of Priors Farm only. The advice offered is general advice only. Priors Farm clients who wish to discuss the individual circumstances of their horse should contact the office. To speak to a vet please phone between 8.30 – 10.00 am on weekday mornings.

#TransformTuesday: 7 March
Every week, Transform examines recent rebrands and updated visual identities. This week's picks are below. For more from #TransformTuesday, follow @Transformsays
Asian Institute of Management
Based in Makati, the Philippines, the Asian Institute of Management (AIM) will celebrate its 50th birthday in 2018. In anticipation of this milestone, and to reflect the innovative direction of the school's teaching, AIM has unveiled an update to its visual identity. A main focus of the rebrand is the concept of dynamism, with a colourful logo and flexible identity reflecting the changes occurring at the AIM, and the dynamic relationship between the Philippine government and burgeoning business sector. A press email from the AIM says, "The Nexus, which our new logo is called, embodies and embraces fluidity, given the nature of our times. Yet it remains rooted in the heritage and guiding principles of our founders. As the shape of the shield morphs into the Nexus, AIM continues to serve as a focal point where business, government, and society converge, connect, and synergise."
International discount supermarket, Aldi, has updated its logo and colour palette with a new gradient-based colour scheme. Aldi has experienced many iterations of its logo since first opening in 1948; the latest, while not straying far from its recognisable design, reflects the supermarket's place in contemporary society. According to a press release, Aldi enlisted the help of agency illion. Markensocietaet. Kirsten Geß, communication director at Aldi South, says, "For our customers, this will be visible, for example, in the ongoing further development of our range, the redesign of our stores, and the upcoming pop-up store 'Meine Weinkwelt.' The fresh visual design of the new logo fits perfectly into Aldi South's current modernisation process."
Cambridge Assessment
The assessment agency of the University of Cambridge, Cambridge Assessment is the parent brand of three examining bodies. Until now, each had vastly differing visual identities, despite being aligned with the same company. An update sees Cambridge Assessment take on an identity fitting to its brand architecture. Carried out by London-based business consultancy, BrandCap, the new identity's three brand values – collaborative, responsible and innovative – is reflected in the vivid colour palette of Cambridge Assessment's new website. Leo Shapiro, Cambridge Assessment's group director, says, "Listening to learners, parents, schools and partners, they all told us just how important our connection with the University of Cambridge is to them… we've also developed a brand that's unique to Cambridge Assessment and distinct – and getting that balance was a crucial part of the strategy".
Poland-based children's photography agency, HiHello, is run by Paulina Kania and Piotr Półtorak. The agency's new strategy, 'the best shot at bringing out the best in children' informs HiHello's latest communication campaign; it was developed into a brand strategy by Poznan-based agency, Minima Advertising People. "Our goal was to express and emphasise the most important aspect of Paulina and Piotr's everyday work, which is their ability to build wonderful relationships with the little models," says Anna Szymczak, managing partner at Minima Advertising People. Paulina Kania, founder of HiHello, says, "From the very start, the most important thing for us was turn all our ideas and previous work into an efficient tool we could use in our future projects."
Blossom Philadelphia
For over 70 years, United Cerebral Palsy of Philadelphia has been widely recognised as one of the most celebrated charitable organisations in the US. Yet a new direction, as well as an expansion in the charity's provision and capabilities, paved the way for a renewed visual and verbal identity. Carried out by brand agency DBD International and led by David Brier, the organisation is now known as Blossom Philadelphia – representing the growth of both the charity's mission and its members. Brier says, "This rebrand involved a new brand story, name development, new brand identity, new slogan and positioning and overall brand hierarchy. The new name grew organically from the core concept of helping each individual – helping them blossom – and the factor of helping them gain a firm foundation for their lives. The last detail was they are based in Philadelphia, the home of independence for America."
Despite Wales making up a quarter of the UK's countries, tourism to Ireland and Scotland is often chosen over Welsh tourist destinations. To remedy this, as well as unify 'brand Wales' touchpoints under one visual identity, Cardiff-based brand consultancy Smörgåsbord has created a new nation brand for Wales. To roll out across its tourism, food and drink, and business sectors, Smörgåsbord has created a graphic representation of the traditional Welsh dragon symbol. It is also intended that the Welsh government will use it alongside its own public services branding. Speaking to DesignWeek, co-founder of Smörgåsbord, Dylan Griffith, says, "Our studio mantra was to create something inherently Welsh with a global outlook. We wanted to design a brand that was of the country."

Muslim Legal Defense Fund of America (MLFA) Guantanamo North: Muslim Prisoners in America
By Geoffrey Cook, TMO
II. Ahmed Ghappour, Liberty and Security: Post-9/11 Initiatives
Silicon Valley—The second speaker at the Muslim Legal Fund of America (MLFA) fund-raising dinner here last spring which your scribe is examining in micro-detail (i.e., each individual presentation per article) is Ahmed Ghappour.
Ahmed is a clinical (law) instructor (J.D.) in the Law School at the University of Texas at Austin. According to that University's law web site, his research specializes in civil rights, criminal, International and National Security law. Curiously, before becoming a lawyer, Professor Ghappour was a diagnostics engineer dedicated to the study of distributed systems of high performance computing.
He, now, after completing his law doctorate, holds a position as a Clinical Instructor with the National Security Clinic at Austin's Law School.
Further, Dr. Ghappour, also, directs the National Security Defense Project (the NSDP), which the University describes as an access to justice initiative addressing Constitutional issues in national-security and cyber-security prosecutions — particularly those related to electronic surveillance and foreign intelligence gathering.
Ahmed's research is primarily concerned with the interplay between emerging technologies and national security—particularly as demonstrated by the modern surveillance State and the evolution of cyberspace as a theater of war.
For the past few years, Ahmed has worked on human rights issues relating to cyber-security and national security.
Ahmed Ghappour began his comments with "Since 9/11 law enforcement has been used as the primary tool to prevent terrorism.†This has impacted the American Islamic community unfairly. It has employed to rendition — too often sending American Islamic citizens to allied third States for the purpose of torture. (The legal memo that was used to "permit†the Bush Administration to do so was written by a Law Professor, John Yoo, presently back here at the Boalt Hall, the "Law†School at the University of California in my home city of Berkeley when he was a Deputy Attorney-General in the District of Columbia during the first decade of this millennium [CE]!) Prosecutors (who, also, went as far as to deny many American Muslims, which were under suspicion, of their Constitutional right for their day in court) often, as well, pushed for indictments based on confessions or other information gained under excruciating duress.
The Holy Land Foundation, the largest Islamic charity based in America, before the G.W.OT. (the Global War on Terrorism), is an infamous case in point. Three months after Al Qaeda's attack upon the U.S.' Northeast the Bush Administration labeled the HLF (the Holy Land Foundation) a terrorist organization, seizing its assets, and closed the charity accusing them of laundering money for Hamas even though the Holy Land Foundation states on its website that "Our mission is to find and implement practical solutions for human suffering through humanitarian programs…for the disadvantaged, disinherited, and displaced peoples suffering from man-made and natural disasters,†and had been operating to the highest standards of service for the last sixty-five years of the previous century.
Furthermore, the first trial ended in a mistrial. Curiously, their board of trustees was for the most part American citizens of Islamic belief involved in raising money and dispensing relief to Palestine. Fringe Jewish hate-mongers were involved in the trial, too, which supported the Israeli army's repression of the ancient Arab land of Palestine, and the accusations came at the height of the irrational jingoism against Muslims – especially Arabs and particularly opposed to Palestinians – that was in the air during the first year of this new century.
Further still, any consortium that is doing relief in Gaza has to deal with Hamas, and in a speech in California, of which your writer was present, (former U.S.) President James (Jimmy) Carter stated that the election in which Hamas came to power in Gaza City was the freest and fairest he had ever observed. Hamas as with their mentor the Muslim Brotherhood of Egypt take part in the democratic political process, and accept the results without question unlike the Nile nation's SCARF (Supreme Council of the Armed Forces). Hamas and the Brotherhood are democrats – not terrorists. The charge comes from Tel Aviv, and is accepted hook, line and sinker by Washington.
(Recently your composer received an e–mail from the Holy Land Foundation that they were back in business, but I could not find anything to that effect on the Internet.)
The Holy Land Foundation is an example of the counter-insurgent victimizing a respected association's ideology to the detriment of those repressed it serves, and whose Board have been imprisoned for over a decade for the selfless work they have committed themselves to do.
In these cases, defendants cannot access "classified†information. Those "expert†witnesses remain anonymous. This has led to (our) community's alienation from mainstream authority which is "…cutting down the whole forest fearful of a bad tree.â€
A positive Islamic(-American) community is moving into shape, though. Civil rights attorneys are making changes in the law. We must provide pro-bono defense lawyers from our own ranks because of the cultural chasm between mainstream Western and Islamic societies.
"Stings†are being set up against us where otherwise innocent and moral people are forced to commit a crime.
(Finally, there will be one more article in this serial-extended article – hopefully — next week depending on the flow of news.)

I am using MacBook pro. I have this weird chrome icon:
I dont know if its the official chrome icon, but it looks damaged or spoiled to me. If you are also using chrome on your macbook, does your icon looks like mine too?

I am using MacBook pro. I have this weird chrome icon:
I dont know if its the official chrome icon, but it looks damaged or spoiled to me. If you are also using chrome on your macbook, does your icon looks like mine too?
I would suggest reinstalling Google Chrome rather than going to the trouble of manually replacing the icon. Download it here.
Oh, and to restore all your bookmarks, history, etc., go to Prefs>Personal Stuff>Sync. Login with your Google Account and ta da! All your bookmarks and data are synced. Then, when you reinstall Chrome, login again, and all your data will be restored.
Definitely not normal. Given that it appears normally in your dock, it suggests that maybe one of the larger size icons (there are typically several different sized icon files in the .app bundle) is corrupt. You could either reinstall Chrome (which should keep your preferences intact, but it's best to back them up just in case), or you can redownload it, but not reinstall, and manually replace the icon files.
To manually replace the icon files, you'd want to open up the app bundle (right/command-click > Show Package Contents) for both your installed version and the one from the downloaded .dmg and copy the applicable .icns file from the downloaded version to your installed version. That file should be in the Resources folder of the package contents. Looking at my Chrome install suggests you probably want app.icns, but double check, QuickLook should show you what's what.
I would bet that the problem lies in Lion somewhere. Your Dock icon and the Chrome icon in your app folder look fine. It is only in Launchpad that you have the problem.
Try this: Delete the icon in Launchpad, because that is where the error is. That will probably delete Google Chrome.
Restart or logout then back in. If necessary, re-install Chrome. Now add it to Launchpad if it is not already there.
Please post the result of whatever you try and what succeeded.

Mount Sinai scientists have determined how a pathological brain protein called tau contributes to the progression of Alzheimer's disease.
Alzheimer's Reading Room
Researchers at Mount Sinai School of Medicine have gained insight into the mechanism by which a pathological brain protein called tau contributes to the progression of Alzheimer's disease (AD) and other neurodegenerative disorders.
This finding, published in the most recent issue of the Journal of Biological Chemistry, may provide the basis for future investigations on how to prevent tau from damaging brain circuits involved in cognitive function.

Researchers Gain Better Understanding of the Mechanism Behind Alzheimer's Disease Progression
|Giulio Maria Pasinetti
A research group led by Giulio Maria Pasinetti, MD, PhD, Saunders Family Chair in Neurology at Mount Sinai School of Medicine, explored whether misfolded tau released by neurons from the human brain – also known as paired helical filaments (PHFs) – could actually be taken up by surrounding cells and promote the spread of tau neuropathology. The evidence was gathered by treating human neuronal cell lines with human Alzheimer's disease-derived PHFs. The researchers found that not only did the cells in fact internalize the human PHFs, the abnormal tau then propagated its abnormal state to the native, normal tau protein in the cells.
"While these findings are potentially important for possibly opening new therapeutic avenues in Alzheimer's disease, they also shed light on a new therapeutic target for a wide variety of disorders sharing pathological features with Alzheimer's disease, for which there are currently no cures," said Dr. Pasinetti. "Such diseases include Progressive Supranuclear Palsy, frontotemporal dementia, and other devastating neurodegenerative disorders in which misfolded tau forms aggregates in the brain."Next the researchers treated the same cell lines with a grape-seed extract enriched in polyphenols, which are natural compounds found in grapes, fruits, and vegetables, based on 2011 research showing the efficacy of this extract in preventing the progression of AD in mice. Dr. Pasinetti's group found that a subfraction of this natural grape-seed extract enriched in polyphenols was able to prevent the cell-to-cell spread of tau pathology in the same human neuronal cell lines.
"Pathology in neurodegenerative disorders is thought to be initiated decades before disease onset," said Dr. Pasinetti. "While further research is needed in humans, we hypothesize that this grape-derived compound may be a promising therapy for not only treating but preventing neurodegenerative disorders involving tau neuropathology."Dr. Pasinetti and Jun Wang, PhD, Assistant Professor of Neurology at Mount Sinai, are named inventors of a pending application filed by Mount Sinai School of Medicine titled "Methods Preventing Neurodegenerative Disease" related to the use of grape-seed extracts for the treatment of neurodegenerative diseases and may benefit financially from this patent.

What's the best way to trade surging volatility in this unfriendly market?
Take a look at online brokers Charles Schwab, TD Ameritrade and Knight Capital , Pete Najarian said. These names are performing well but being sold anyway since anything retailed to financial services seems to be getting thrown out. As long as a market decline doesn't last more than a few months, Pete thinks these three names remain tradable.
Guy Adami doesn't think "fallen angel" Goldman Sachs should be sold off in the same way that traders are selling Merrill Lynch, Bear Stearns and Morgan Stanley . Don't expect those kinds of write-downs from Goldman, he said.

Klemens Schillinger has developed a series of five different phone-shaped fidget devices, which he says could help you stop you obsessing over swiping to unlock, scrolling or zooming on your handheld device.
Writing on his website, he shared: "Does the following statement sound familiar? You are sitting in the metro and are grabbing your smartphone at the first sign of boredom or because the person next to you just received a message.
"The shape of the Substitute Phone replicates an average smartphone, however, its functions are reduced to the movements we make hundreds of times on a daily basis. The stone beads which are incorporated in the body let you scroll, zoom and swipe. there are no digital functions.
"The object, which some of us describe as a prosthesis, is reduced to nothing but the motions. This calming limitation offers help for smartphone addicts to cope with withdrawal symptoms. The object as a therapeutic approach."
It comes after lampposts in Salzburg were fitted with airbags to stop "smartphone zombies" from bumping into them.
Officials in the Austrian city are worried that people could injure themselves by walking into the permanent fixtures after research carried out locally revealed one in five pedestrians are at risk of being distracted by their phone.
The Board for Traffic Safety (KFV) have advised the local council to do something to help the residents.
Martin Pfanner, KFV expert, said: "We are of the opinion that when people see this very public warning in the form of lamppost airbags of the dangers of not paying attention, they will change their behaviour."

Excavating the Bible: New Archaeological Evidence for the Historical Reliability of Scripture
by Yitzhak Meitlis
After many decades of academic secularism, we see that archaeologists and historians are regularly dismissive of Religion and often downright hostile. Few in academia have bothered to read the Bible and even fewer have devoted significant time to its study. Centuries of history are explained away as fabrication, the stories in Scripture merely fables.
Excavating the Bible stands in rebellion against the suppression of religion in Western society. Its author, Yitzhak Meitlis, defends the historical accuracy of Scripture and brings the evidence to the general public. The Hebrew language edition has already been widely-read and debated in Israel.
Meitlis, an award-winning Professor of Archaeology in Israel brings something rare to the back and forth inquiry about the truth of the Bible. It is a deep love of the land of Israel and intimate knowledge of the Bible itself. Dr. Meitlis has built his argument on academic scholarship, excavations of colleagues and his deep familiarity with the geography of Israel.
Biblical archaeology is an imprecise scientific discipline, as the author himself explains, "Tangible finds such as inscriptions, pottery, foundations of buildings, and evidence of destruction must be given life and meaning in order to fit into an historical context."
Were David and Solomon, in fact, powerful rulers of wide renown, for example, as indicated in the Bible or were they merely minor chieftains of insignificant stature as claimed by some modern-day historians?
These are not idle questions. In our own day, some in the Arab world are claiming, with the support of archaeological minimalists, that Ancient Israel is a myth, that no Temples ever existed in Jerusalem and that Israeli claims to Jerusalem are historically unfounded.
With great skill and meticulous methodology, Meitlis utilizes both the tools of modern archaeological research and his deep understanding of the ancient Near East. He leads the reader on a lively exploration of the ancient cities of the Judean Hills, and the birth of an Israelite nation and the people's challenge to remaining a people committed to God as described in the Prophets and later Writings. The journey culminates in Jerusalem, where the reader watches the rise and fall of one civilization after another; views the audacious exploits that delivered the city into the hands of David; pictures its glory at the height of its power; and watches in horror as it meets its fiery end.
This excursion through the terrain of the Bible that is found in Excavating the Bible is sure to astonish, even shock many of you, excite others and comfort those searching for validation of their beliefs. . It is a thought-provoking and captivating exploration of the Biblical era in all of its majesty.
Jews on Trial: Judges, Juries, Prosecutors and Defendants from the Era of Jesus to Our Own Time by Ori Z. Soltes ISBN 9780935437430 • $23.95
From the Gospel account of Jesus' trial and punishment to medieval Blood Libels, from the notorious Dreyfus Affair to the story of Leo Frank's trial and eventual lynching, and from the State of Israel's trial and execution of Nazi Adolph Eichmann to Jonathan Pollard's closed-door trial and ongoing incarceration, it seems that the Jew, one way or another, is always on trial in the courtroom of journalistic and historiographic examination, whether as the accused, the accuser, the jury or the judge.
Unique and provocative, this volume begins by asking when and how law became separate from religion in the Israelite-Judaean world before considering how we might evaluate and understand the Gospel's narrative of Jesus' trial and punishment in light of information found within Judaean, pagan Roman and early Jewish literature. Regardless of the details that favor or disfavor the Gospel account, many generations of Christians accept it as unequivocally true, which has shaped their relations with Jews over the past two millennia.
In Jews on Trial, Ori Soltes delivers a concise and extensive review of the history of Christian-Jewish relations that examines that relationship from a legal and quasi-legal perspective and adds significantly to the discourse. There is no other comprehensive text so broadly conceived, yet focused on such an important aspect of human history through a specific lens of religion, law and justice.
My Shoshana: A Father's Journey through Loss
by Rabbi Rafael Grossman
We all suffer the pain of loss when a loved one dies. We search for meaning in their lives and try to comprehend the unknowable. For each of us, understanding is a journey of inestimable length.
Rafael Grossman was a successful pulpit rabbi, president of his state's rabbinical council, and the dean of a Hebrew Day School when his teenage daughter Shoshana—vibrant and energetic, a delight to her parents and everyone around her—became ill and died at the age of seventeen.
After her death, Rabbi Grossman was sure that he would never quite have the same faith in God or regain his joy in living. But as the years went by, he appreciated how Jews throughout history had managed to sustain hope in the wake of personal and communal calamities, and he too regained hope.
My Shoshana is a heartfelt letter from father to daughter as an expression of his love, and his never-ending sorrow, but also as a story of renewal and the recognition that, with our memories, no one is truly lost to us.
The Ashen Rainbow
by Ori Z. Soltes
The Ashen Rainbow considers various aspects of the arts as they relate to the Holocaust. It is based, in part, on the author's experience in teaching the course The Theological Implications of the Holocaust for many years at Georgetown University–which has focused in part on writers who wrestle with questions of God and Man—-presence, absence, nature, existence as such—provoked by the extermination of so many innocents with so little opposition from the outside world.
The juxtaposition of the terms "arts" and "Holocaust" is intended to draw the reader's attention to a paradox: that the Nazis introduced a new level of intensity to the human capacity for destruction; and yet their acts have yielded an unprecedented volume of creative effort, a rainbow tinged with ashes in all directions—writing, music, theater, visual arts, film—during the decades the gates of Auschwitz were open to our own time.
The arts are an extraordinary fulcrum upon which history, theology, psychology and economics may be seen generally to balance. The Holocaust context offers a unique mirror in which to view the broader realm of human experience balancing on that fulcrum. These essays encompass the writing of Elie Wiesel, Primo Levi and Nelly Sachs; music created in Germany and in Teresienstadt Concentration Camp through much of the Holocaust period. The visual art created both in Teresienstadt and elsewhere in the Nazi Reich, by both children and adults—and the works of theater and film—including a full-length essay discussing Steven Spielberg's epic "Schindler's List."
These topics are framed by a prologue that considers the intertwine of politics and art in the matter of cultural plunder by the Nazis and an epilogue that offers a definitive summary of the work to recover such plunder that, after a hiatus of half a century, has emerged in the past decade—and with which effort the author has been intimately involved.
Connected by the rubrics "arts" and "Holocaust," the diverse essays that comprise The Ashen Rainbow were written at different times and places over a fifteen-year period. Each essay stands on its own and together they offer a comprehensive, multifaceted examination of an event that captures humanity in its brightest and darkest moments.

Jacob Stein's upbringing gave him profound reverence for Jewish tradition and instilled a desire to reach out to his fellow Jews. This led him to become active with Temple Israel, the Conservative synagogue he attended with his wife and children in Great Neck, New York. Stein rose quickly to become Temple President.
In 1969, as a maverick candidate for President of United Synagogue, Conservative Jewry's main body, Stein won a surprise victory. He immediately launched a series of reforms designed to reinvigorate its stagnant leadership.
Even though he was a newcomer to the Conference of Presidents of Major American Jewish Organizations, Stein was asked to serve as Acting Chairman. He assumed the role at a time when American-Israeli relations were tense. Stein participated in meetings with President Richard Nixon and Israeli Prime Minister Golda Meir to negotiate the terms of American aid to Israel in its conflicts with Arab states.
In subsequent years, Stein was twice elected in his own right as Chairman of the Presidents Conference. As Chairman, he suffered bitter criticism when he defended the Nixon Administration's decision to maintain relations with the Soviet government while attempting to free oppressed Soviet Jewry. Convinced that this balanced approach would garner results, Stein stood by it, weathering the storm of personal attacks.
Stein became ever more embroiled in the challenges and controversies of Jewish affairs when he joined the Reagan White House staff as an advisor. His calming influence made him successful in the delicate role of liaison to the Jewish public during battles over the sale of AWACS military aircrafts to Saudi Arabia, when the American government was accused of threatening Israeli interests.
Following six weeks in Geneva as a member of the United States delegation to the 1982 United Nations Human Rights Commission, Stein returned to America to continue his political involvement. In 1986 he visited Israel with Vice President George H.W. Bush as a member of the "Gang of Eight," a group of Jewish supporters who encouraged presidential candidate Bush to reach out to Jewish voters as well as the Christian right.
Over the next two years of campaigning, Stein and Bush kept up an exchange in which Stein offered the Vice President insight on gaining Jewish America's support. Their friendship continued throughout Bush's presidency, and even when they disagreed the two men retained a strong sense of mutual respect and camaraderie.
Despite his great success in business and his deep commitment to family, Jacob Stein has devoted untold time and energy to the American Jewish community. His memoirs reveal a life fully and richly lived in service to his people and his country.

Journey Through the Minefields:
From Vietnam to Washington, An Orthodox Surgeon's Odyssey
by Mendy Ganchrow, M.D.
More than an autobiography of a distinguished Jewish leader, this book mirrors American and Jewish history in the second half of the twentieth century.
Mendy Ganchrow, M.D. was raised in an Orthodox Jewish household, where he was instilled with values and beliefs that would never leave him. Throughout his early life, he also exhibited a love of service and a gift for leadership. The Vietnam War was, perhaps, the seminal moment in his life, as he brought both his surgical skills and his spiritual comfort to fellow servicemen.
While in the midst of a very successful career as a surgeon, it was suggested to Ganchrow that he join AIPAC, The American Israel Public Affairs Committee. His faith, combined with his fervor for the American way of life, pointed him to ever more involved levels of political activism, leading to the creation of a successful pro-Israel political action committee (HUVPAC) and eventually culminating in his election to the presidency of the Orthodox Union in 1994.
Ganchrow has met and conferred with many of the personalities who have fashioned our contemporary world—Prime Ministers and kings, American Presidents from Ronald Reagan to Bill Clinton, members of both the Israeli Knesset and the U.S. Congress, and numerous religious leaders.
Even during the most trying times of his presidency, he demonstrated the same outstanding commitment and leadership skills that spell loyalty to principle, leadership, and a living example of how one can be dedicated to the cause of American democracy, Jewish faith, the Torah way of life, and the welfare of all Jews.
Praise for Journey through the Minefields
Journey Through the Minefields: From Vietnam to Washington, An Orthodox Surgeon's Odyssey has garnered both critical and reader acclaim in its years of publication, having been featured in the Jerusalem Post, Lifestyle Magazine, Jewish Week, The Forward, The Jewish Press, and many other local and national newspapers. Journey Through the Minefields also received an excellent review as a feature in the Jewish Book Council's fall 2004 literary magazine, Jewish Book World. The Rockland Jewish Reporter called the book "at times poignant, at times brutally honest, but always full of information," and noted that "it is not only a glimpse into Ganchrow's personal and professional growth, but is also an insider's view into the political process, and in relation, the Jewish community and the leadership of its organizations."

While somewhere in America, Miley Cyrus was angering the FCC and the Parents' Television Council, an estimated 30,000 people turned out for the 8th annual AfroPunk Fest.
The two-day festival, organized by Jocelyn Cooper, is touted around the blogosphere and the streets as "the other Black experience". Festivalgoers who arrived to Brooklyn, New York City's Commodore Barry Park celebrated a wide range of audio sounds from punk (see: A Band Called Death) to Hip-Hop to indie rock to reggae, and more. Along with the obligatory food spots and djembe drummers, the very afrocentric occasion saw interested parties enjoying excellent performances from Saul Williams, Jean Grae, K-Os, Danny Brown and more.
Described as a "free space" for Africans, African-Americans and anyone else who wants to venture into that world, the event allows folks to be who they are, however they want to be without being profiled or defined by the outside culture. As Hip-Hop legends mingled with punk rock poets, the area was covered from pillar to post with fashionably bold prints, vibrant colors and eclectic accessories meant to gain one's attention.
With the 8th annual AfroPunk Fest now wrapped and in the books, we take a look at the 15 Wildest Looks From Brooklyn's AfroPunk Fest that would even make Solange a bit envious.
