Triple Cherry Trifle
Red and green may be synonymous with Christmas, but when you use cherry red and apple green—accented by a white as bright as Tom Sawyer's legendary picket fence—the result is the epitome of summer joie de vivre. "When paired with vivid color, bright white becomes the ultimate summery accent," explains Traditional Home's senior style editor Krissa Rossbund of the scheme she created for this alfresco dinner for weekend houseguests at the Malibu home of designer Erika Brunson.
A pro at mixing flea-market finds with fine tableware, Krissa created a tablescape that is casually luxurious, using crystal glasses and sterling flatware with mother-of-pearl handles. Yet it's also reminiscent of lazy, hazy summer days spent picnicking (napkins in an oversized check), antiquing (the hobnail milk glass your grandmother collected), gardening (fragrant mini-pots of herbs at each guest's plate) and boating (rope trim on the cushions that make patio chairs comfortable enough to linger in until the fireflies come out).
Jewel-toned fruit set out as a warm-weather appetizer confirms that life is a bowl of cherries while rattan lanterns flicker, introducing a rougher texture to the polished tabletop. The menu is as light and refreshing as a summer shower, featuring chilled tomato-basil soup, grilled salmon, and a cherry trifle.
With good food and lively company in a smashing seasonal setting, such an evening proves—as a poet once said—that spring being a tough act to follow, God created June.

Produced by Krissa Rossbund
A light and breezy printed linen tablecloth in "Tilia Apple" softly enhances the table set for guests on a covered patio at the home of designer Erika Brunson. Napkins are made of "Melbury Ginko" and "Elmore Rocoto" cotton, underscoring the gingham check elements that distinguish the table setting. All fabrics are by Romo through Thomas Lavin (310/278-2456).
Old Meets New
Red "Color Concept" glass buffet plates and "Anmut My Colour" bone china dinner plates, both from Villeroy & Boch, take a vintage spin when paired with "Lace Edge" milk glass salad plates and mother-of-pearl flatware from Replacements.
Got Milk Glass?
Reminiscent of summer days gone by, vintage milk glass from Replacements, including Westmoreland "Grape Panel" iced tea glasses and Fenton hobnail tumblers, brightens the clear "Miss Desiree" crystal champagne flutes from Villeroy & Boch.
Tulip Treasures
Back-friendly pillows in Romo's "Tulipa Coral" cotton fabric amp up the color factor on existing bright apple-green cushions with rope trim. The cushions soften the white metal furniture from Erika Brunson Couture Living that is accented with gold-finish
Check and Check Again
Gingham checks are back. Here they suggest the homespun look of a picnic on pretty, fanciful placecards. It's just one of those personalized touches that help make an occasion more memorable.
Berry Delicious
Welcome guests with summer's bounty by offering jars of fresh preserves as a gift to take home with them. Create custom labels for each jar, then tie with a coordinating ribbon for a signature look.
Menu & Shopping List
Outdoor dining menus suggest freshness and immediacy in our cooking—simple methods such as grilling, an exotically flavored iced tea to cool us down, and the sweet-tart lusciousness of just-picked cherries.
Extended summer sunlight creates early evening ambience while these "Careen" rattan-and-bamboo lanterns from Crate & Barrel provide an after-hours glow as the night deepens.

• 2 cinnamon sticks
• Ice cubes
• 1 orange, cut into 8 wedges

Whisk 30 seconds; squeeze juice from orange and lemon wedges into mixture and mix again. Strain into ice-filled glasses; add 1 orange wedge and 1 lemon wedge to each glass.

Chipotle Cheese Puffs
• 1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
• 1/2 cup shredded Parmesan cheese
• 3/4 teaspoon chipotle chili powder
• 1 sheet frozen puff pastry, thawed (from a 17.5-ounce package)
• 1 egg, lightly beaten with 1 tablespoon water
Preheat oven to 400°F. Coat large baking sheet with nonstick cooking spray. In small bowl, mix together cheeses and chili powder. Set aside.
Place pastry sheet on lightly floured work surface. Roll out to 12x10-inch rectangle. Lightly brush with some of the egg wash. Starting at short end, sprinkle 3/4 cup of cheese mixture over half of pastry. Fold other half over cheese like a book. Gently press down over cheese. Place pastry on small baking sheet; refrigerate 15 minutes.
Place pastry on cutting board; trim sides evenly. Cut into approximately 50 (1-inch) squares. Lightly brush tops with remaining egg wash; sprinkle on remaining cheese. Gently press cheese down so it adheres to pastry. Bake 13 to 15 minutes, until golden. Serve immediately. Makes about 50 appetizers.
Chilled Tomato, Basil, and Bread Soup
Bread helps thicken this lovely summer soup. Blanching the basil before pureeing helps preserve its color.
• 1/2 pound day-old French bread, crust removed, crumb cut into 1/4-inch cubes (3 cups)
• Kosher salt
• 1 cup lightly packed fresh basil leaves, plus additional for garnish
• 2 pounds ripe tomatoes, cored and chopped (5 cups)
• 1 large garlic clove, roughly chopped
• 2 teaspoons sherry vinegar

Position rack in center of oven. Preheat oven to 350°F. Spread bread cubes on rimmed baking sheet; toast in oven until lightly golden and crisp, about 15 minutes.
Bring medium pot of well-salted water to boil over high heat. Add basil; cook until wilted, about 30 seconds. Drain; run under cold water. Pat leaves dry with paper towels. Roughly chop leaves.
In blender, puree basil, tomatoes, garlic, and 2 cups ice-cold water for about 45 seconds. Strain through fine sieve to remove solids; return puree to blender.
Add bread, vinegar, and 2 teaspoons salt; blend until pureed, about 2 minutes. Soup should be very smooth; if not, continue blending. Add olive oil; process a few more seconds to combine. Divide among 6 bowls; garnish with basil sprigs or refrigerate until ready to use.
Make Ahead Tip: Soup can be refrigerated for up to 3 days.
Grilled Hazelnut Salmon with Watercress, Snow Pea, and Beet Salad
• 8 ounces golden or red baby beets, trimmed, scrubbed or peeled and quartered
• 6 ounces snow peas, trimmed (about 1-1/2 cups)

• 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
• 1/3 cup white balsamic vinegar
• 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
• 1/4 cup hazelnut oil
• 2-1/2 cups watercress
• 3 tablespoons finely chopped chives
Cook beets in boiling lightly salted water 15 to 20 minutes or until tender; drain. Set aside. Meanwhile, place steamer basket in large saucepan; bring 1-inch water to boil. Add pea pods. Cover; steam 2 to 3 minutes or until just tender. Rinse with cold water; drain. Set aside.
Brush one side of salmon with 1 tablespoon hazelnut oil. In 9-inch pie plate combine ground hazelnuts, flour, and 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt. Dip brushed side of salmon in nut mixture to coat.
For charcoal grill, arrange heated coals around drip pan; test for medium heat above drip pan. Place fish, coated side up, on greased grill rack over drip pan. Cover; grill 14 to 18 minutes or until fish flakes easily when tested with fork. (For gas grill, preheat grill.
Reduce heat to medium and adjust for indirect cooking. Place salmon on grill rack not directly over heat. Cover; grill as above.) (Or place fish, coated side up, in shallow baking pan. Bake, uncovered, in 450°F oven 8 to 12 minutes or until fish flakes.)
Meanwhile, in small bowl combine white balsamic vinegar and ½ teaspoon kosher salt; whisk in 1/4 cup hazelnut oil. Remove 1/4 cup dressing; set aside. In large bowl toss watercress, chives, pea pods and beets with remaining dressing. Divide among 4 serving plates. Add salmon fillet, coated side up, to each plate. Drizzle salmon with reserved dressing. Makes 4 servings.
*To grind hazelnuts, place hazelnuts in grinder and pulse until finely ground. To skin whole hazelnuts, lightly toast hazelnuts until fragrant; wrap hazelnuts in clean dishtowel and roll with palm of hand until skins are removed.
Triple Cherry Trifle
Red and yellow sweet cherries star in this dessert favorite, layered with custard, almonds, and pound cake and topped with billowy whipped cream.
• 3 beaten eggs
• 2 cups milk, half-and-half, or light cream
• 1/4 cup sugar
• 1 teaspoon vanilla
• 1 (10.75-ounce) frozen pound cake, thawed

• 2 cups halved and pitted fresh dark and/or light sweet cherries
• 2 tablespoons toasted sliced almonds
• 1/2 cup whipping cream
• 1 tablespoon sugar
• 1/2 teaspoon vanilla
• Fresh mint (optional)

Stir in 1 teaspoon vanilla. Quickly cool by placing saucepan in sink or bowl of ice water for 1 to 2 minutes, stirring constantly. Cover surface with clear plastic wrap; chill in refrigerator 2 hours.
Cut cake into 1/2-inch cubes (you should have about 5 cups).
In 8 dessert dishes or 1-1/2-quart bowl layer half the preserves, cake, and liqueur or juice. Dot with remaining preserves. Top with half the cherries, almonds, and custard. Repeat layers without preserves. Cover; chill in refrigerator 3 to 24 hours. Chill medium mixing bowl and beaters of electric mixer.
Before serving, in chilled bowl combine whipping cream, 1 tablespoon sugar, and 1/2 teaspoon vanilla; beat with electric mixer on medium speed until soft peaks form. Top trifle with whipped cream. If desired, garnish with mint. Makes 8 servings.
Make Ahead Tip:
Prepare and layer trifle as above. Cover; chill in refrigerator up to 24 hours. Just before serving, prepare whipped cream and spread atop trifle.

A film by Emma Dante
Italy, Switzerland
- Comedy Drama
It's a Sunday afternoon. The sirocco wind blows pitilessly upon Palermo when Rosa and Clara, two women arriving to celebrate a friend's wedding, get lost among the city streets and end up in a sort of cul-de-sac: Via Castellana Bandiera. At the same moment, another car driven by Samira, in which the Calafiore family is amassed, arrives in the opposite direction and enters the same street. Neither Rosa at the wheel of her Multipla, nor Samira, an ancient and stubborn woman at the wheel of her Punto, intend to give way to each other. While the Calafiore family withdraw into the illegal building where they live and organise a gamble, with the complicity of the neighbours, on which one of the two women shall hold her position longest, Clara decides to leave the Multipla to continue her discovery of Palermo on the scooter of Nicolà², the youngest in the Calafiore family, who escorts her willingly.Evening falls, then night penetrates within the street and the neighbourhood houses, but the two women, resisting hunger, sleep and thirst, seem to be obeying a stubbornness holding no more rationality and persist in not yielding way to the other...

Statements on Auditing Procedure
October 1939
No. 1
Issued by the
Extensions of Auditing Procedure
Committee on Auditing Procedure, American Institute of Accountants, 13 East 41st Street, New York, N. Y.
Copyright 1941 by American Institute of Accountants
To THE MEMBERS OF THE
Under date of May 9, 1939, the council of the American Institute of Accountants adopted a report submitted by the special com-mittee on auditing procedure entitled "Extensions of Auditing Pro-cedure," and at the same time it was anticipated that the committee would make a supplemental report at the September meeting. The report of May 9th emphasized that it was the ultimate responsibility of the independent certified public accountant to adopt such pro-cedures as in his professional judgment he deemed appropriate, but recommended that certain additional procedures regarding inven-tories and accounts receivable should be considered as generally ac-cepted practice. It further recommended that, where these additional procedures regarding inventories and accounts receivable had not been undertaken, that fact should be disclosed in the auditors' report or opinion.
The action of the council received widespread support of state or-ganizations of certified public accountants, and the recommendations evoked the hearty approval of investors, credit grantors, the press, and the public.
During the four months which elapsed between the issuance of the report and the September meeting, the committee had considerable discussion and correspondence with informed people, both within and without the profession, and held a number of meetings. While the recommended additional procedures had the united support of independent accountants, it was evident that there was some miscon-ception as to the meaning intended to be conveyed by the term "physi-cal tests" as applied to inventory quantities, that considerable mis-understanding had arisen as to the responsibility which the auditor might be assuming, and that the recommended reference in the auditors' report of opinion to the omission of such procedures had been misconstrued.

After missing the playoffs for the first time in four seasons, the Texas Rangers are lowering the price of advance individual tickets on more than 90 percent of the seats at Rangers Ballpark.
The team also said Thursday that all seating sections will be subject to dynamic pricing this season. That policy applied last year to only two sections, about 20 percent of the seats. Adult ticket prices could be adjusted higher or lower for certain games based on market demand and factors such pitching matchups, day of the week and weather.
The team also said 28 of its 81 home games are designated as more expensive premier games. That is down from 36 last year.
Texas opens at home March 31 against Philadelphia.

The northwest weather can be grim at times from, optimistically, November through February. An escape to a warmer climate can be a delight during this period. Among the many convenient destinations easily reached from the Northwest are Southern California (Palm Springs, San Diego, etc.), Arizona, and Hawaii.
Traveling to these locations in the winter can be a real delight. The contrast in climate definitely heightens one's appreciation. Going from 40 degree rain and wind to this type of scene (of Marriott Ko Olina Beach Resort on Oahu) is a shock:
A beach on the leeward side of Oahu:
On the trail to Manoa Falls outside of Honolulu:

An annual wintertime visit to a warm, sunny destination would be a very nice, therapeutic habit for any Northwest resident.

Tendulkar = the most overated player EVER!!
Beckham = the most overated footballer EVER!!
Vassell = the biggest disgrace since rikki clarke!!
Sreesanth said, "Next ball he was beaten and I said, 'is this the King Charles Lara? Who is this impostor, moving around nervously? I should have kept my mouth shut for the next ball - mind you, it was a length ball - Lara just pulled it over the church beyond the boundary! He is a true legend."
Given that Bell has only faild to pass 30 twice in 9 innings opening the batting in ODIs, I'm fairly certain he will be opening the batting. He's practically the number one opener IMO.
Innings in ODIs, opening:
75, 5, 53, 30, 46, 32, 4, 43, 50

Caliber, gauge, and the Data Stamp
Only one size of ammunition properly fits any firearm. Putting any other size cartridge into a firearm is extremely dangerous. The best way to make sure you are putting the correct ammunition into your firearm is to match the data stamp on the barrel of your firearm to the similar data stamp on the case of the rifle cartridge or shotshell. Be particularly careful with hand-loaded ammunition as it could be mis-marked.
Caliber and gauge
Ammunition comes in different lengths, shapes, and diameters depending on the type of bullet or case used. You must choose a caliber or gauge that is suited to your firearm as well as the game you wish to hunt.
The data stamp
First, you must know the caliber or gauge of the firearm for which you are buying ammunition. To find that out, locate the data stamp on the barrel of your firearm. Does the data stamp on the ammunition match the data stamp on the barrel? If you are not sure always get help from a knowledgeable person. It is easy to be confused by all the different ammunition. Ask someone who is experienced and is familiar with your firearm to help you select the correct ammunition.

Damage Control
ChoicePoint's Rich Baich faced the perfect storm: a huge security breach, intense media attention and a shareholder revolt. What he needed was an incident response plan to get him out of the hot seat.
ChoicePoint's Rich Baich faced the perfect storm: a huge security breach, intense media attention and a shareholder revolt. What he needed was a response plan to get him out of the HOT SEAT.
|Legislation: Disclosure Loopholes
Despite its best efforts and spin control, ChoicePoint has joined the American lexicon as the next symbol of shoddy data protection. The Georgia-based data collector didn't suffer a traditional network hack. No firewall was bypassed. No AV subverted. No IDS tricked. Rather, a fraudulent scheme duped the processes that guarded the sensitive information of 145,000 people. It's an instance where a company's most precious asset was compromised because security and business managers failed to properly assess the risk of a business process. It's also an example of how a company's public disclosure of a security breach can quickly spin out of control once the mainstream media begins ripping into the story.
"I'm in awe of how this has gone to the dinner table," says ChoicePoint CISO Rich Baich. "It's not possible to assess the damage to our reputation." Baich bristles at headlines proclaiming the fraud perpetrated against ChoicePoint as the work of "hackers." With identity theft a sexy topic, the news media will latch on to a story like ChoicePoint's, which is fluid with details following an arrest and prosecution in the case in February, as well as the compulsory disclosure of the breach under California's Security Breach Information Act (SB 1386). Managing the message sent to shareholders and customers via the press has been paramount.
"The mislabeling of this event as a hack is killing ChoicePoint," says Baich. "It's such a negative impression that suggests we failed to provide adequate protection. Fraud happens every day. Hacks don't."
Regardless of the incident's true classification, or what the media calls it, ChoicePoint has quickly become a case study in the importance of an incident response plan that takes into account working with law enforcement, publicly disclosing breach information and dealing with overwhelming press coverage.
A Rich Target
More than 50 acquisitions since 1997 made ChoicePoint one of the richest depositories of American personal data. Social Security numbers, addresses, medical records, criminal rap sheets--you name it, chances are ChoicePoint had it stored in its databases. Firms like ChoicePoint, Lexis-Nexis and others sell this data to clients doing background checks on job and loan applicants and conducting criminal investigations.
CISOs like ChoicePoint's Baich understand how hackers, organized crime groups and scam artists covet that data. They also understand that no security control or business process is perfect, and that there may be days like the one last October when ChoicePoint's fraud detection systems found an anomaly in its public records group. Someone had figured out a way to beat the company's credential verification process and was setting up phony accounts to pilfer thousands of records.
This is the moment when the bottom drops out of a CISO's stomach--and it's worse for those who don't have a thorough and tested incident response plan in place.
"CISOs have to have a plan and make sure all aspects work," says Patrick Gray, director of X-Force operations for Internet Security Systems (ISS). "[During a crisis] isn't the time to create one. When an incident breaks, it's already too late."
|Opinion: Security Isn't Just Technical
Follow the Plan
An incident response plan dictates who should handle incidents, and how to isolate and investigate breaches, restore systems to operation and harden the infrastructure against similar attacks. What's often missed or underestimated is how to control the flow of information outside the organization once a breach becomes public.
"If you look at the major disasters involving customer information, the biggest thing that slips through has been the miscalculation of the future impact," says Rebecca Whitener, an EDS fellow and its director of security and privacy. "Not fully understanding the kind of uproar that can occur when individuals are at risk, or when they feel their privacy or other valued rights have been threatened, really turns the tables."
Enterprises shouldn't downplay or mislead the severity of a breach, but instead be as straightforward as investigators will allow. In ChoicePoint's case, though the breach was discovered six months ago, investigators wouldn't allow public disclosure until after an arrest and conviction were made. ChoicePoint had a plan for dealing with the actual incident and followed it to the letter.
Its first move was to call the Los Angeles county sheriff's office and notify them of the breach. A sting eventually netted a 41-year-old Nigerian citizen, Olatunji Oluwatosin, living in Hollywood, who pleaded no contest to felony identity theft charges and was sentenced to 16 months in jail. Investigators say he's part of a ring that set up fraudulent accounts posing as check-cashing institutions and debt collectors to gain access to ChoicePoint's 19 billion records. The identities of approximately 750 individuals have been identities compromised.
ChoicePoint may have helped catch one of the bad guys involved, but its real challenge going forward is repairing its battered reputation.
SB 1386 forced ChoicePoint to publicly disclose the breach. The regulation, which several states and the federal government are considering emulating, requires companies doing business in California to disclose security breaches in which individuals' personal information may have been compromised (see "Disclosure Loopholes"). By following the law and admitting someone had compromised its data, ChoicePoint became the poster child for bad data gatekeepers.
"People are starving for this type of story because it's never disclosed," says Kevin Mandia of computer forensics firm Red Cliff Consulting. "Firms that have mature information security programs are ready for the media circus, no question. If you have a mature program, and if any threat becomes a reality, the plan kicks in. There's no question the CSO, general counsel--all are absolutely prepared for this."
Enterprises generally must be compelled by regulations or other outside pressure to publicly disclose a security breach. None want to become the next ChoicePoint. None want to see the value of their company's stock plummet almost $8 a share in three weeks as Choice-Point's did.
Most would rather concentrate on how to properly respond to an incident, rather than explain away news stories that confuse network hacks with fraud and scams.
"You should probably rely on individuals who have the information available and can translate what's going on in an organization to the media," says EDS's Whitener. "One of the biggest issues companies face is inaccuracy.
If communication is channeled through the appropriate person in an organization, inaccuracies are lessened."
Dry Runs Make Perfect
Delayed communication also delays remediation of a problem. So does an incident response plan that isn't put through its paces at least quarterly by teams that are assembled in advance and kept current.
Security managers can also take this opportunity to evaluate the data their company must protect. While a CSO must assess the data risks associated with information systems, vulnerabilities are often traced to people and processes.
Relying solely on technology to mitigate risk is foolhardy (see "Security Isn't Just Technical").
All of this is part of a comprehensive risk assessment, a crucial precursor to an incident response plan.
"If you're saying you have no time to run a drill like this," says ISS's Gray, "ask yourself if you're too busy to go out of business."

Given our current political climate, VOTE is more important than ever. Kudos to Prof. Cramer for encouraging civilized debate about important policy issues. If we all stopped to think about the underlying assumptions of people who disagreed with us, maybe we could understand the positions of those who have different perspectives from us. That's what democracy demands -- especially today.
--Prof E Cohn, American University
Amy- we are honored to have you teach our students at PCC. Thank you for developing and teaching Vote to our community.
@Serena Simi: "his supporters may be good people but I don't know any good people who support Trump". This statement makes no sense. But I forgive you because I do realize that Liberalism is a mental disorder. I believe you'd show up at a Trump rally again and scream because that's what the Left is good at: causing chaos and making noise!
@Suzanne Longo: Thank you! He WAS a Trump supporter and an airman at DM. However, according to the Left, you can't be Black and be a Trump supporter at the same time. In fact, according to the Left, Black people are not supposed to be able to walk and chew gum at the same time without their help. They are the real racists!
@T.K. Morgan: What makes YOU think he CAN'T effect that kind of change? I'm from NY and I've seen what Donald Trump can accomplish. Donald Trump doesn't need to be president to have power. He's a billionaire for Christssakes! He could just as soon do nothing and sit back and continue to "benefit from the status quo". He's running for president for one reason--he loves his country and so do I. He's angry and disgusted at the direction this country is going in and so am I. I've learned throughout the years that people who are lying to you and don't give a damn tend to tell you what you WANT to hear. People who are telling the truth and care will tell you what you NEED to hear. I've read a couple of his books and his position papers and Trump is saying things that should have been said a long time ago and talking about doing things that should have been done a long time ago! Americans have been getting the short end of the stick from BOTH sides of the aisle for too long. After 8 years of a George Soros-backed Marxist who hates this country, its time for a change we call REALLY believe in. Political correctness is killing us and it has nothing to do with respect. It has to do with stripping us of our freedoms and our pride. The far left has divided us up into groups and pitted us against each other in order to destroy us from within. To hell with "diversity"--American unity is better. To hell with "tolerance"--mutual respect works better! It's time to take the hyphen out of "American" because its caused us nothing but problems. The Left has called Donald Trump (any anyone else who disagrees with them) all kinds of names but that's just what the Left does. The only thing necessary to be called a racist, sexist, xenophobe, etc., etc., etc., is to disagree with the accepted mindset of the "Progressive Empire". I tune that stuff out.
@Impulsenine: Inflicting themselves on the public at large, forcing their ideas down everyone else's throat, using guerrilla war tactics to shut down political rallies and anyone else who crosses them, name-calling, slandering, destroying the lives of anyone who disagree with them, keeping this country in a state of perpetual racial chaos--no, I'm glad I don't do that either. I leave that up to the "party of tolerance".
Does anybody know who the KKK lady was? It looks like this may also be a new angle. They claim to be supporting Hillary. Is that why they were there?
I, at the Trump rally merely to observe, walked through security with Mr. Sanders. He was nothing but polite going into the arena and was not to my knowledge accompanied by the KKK woman. From across the arena I also witnessed the assault upon Mr. sanders. Let's not keep blaming the victim for the horrible behavior exhibited by the perpetrator.
I was there, too. And, while it may have been a private event, Tucson taxpayers are shouldering the burden of the extra security required to host a monster at the TCC. Since ACTUALLY I am paying for the security at a "private event" you can shove it. I'd show up again. I'd get pulled off the floor again, and I will continue to scream the message that Trump is a dirty, disgusting, misogynist, racist, narcissistic, party flipper whose values are wholly "whatever it takes" to win the White House. His supporters may be good people, but I don't know any good people who support Trump. Kind of strange, right?
I'm just glad that people like LiberalFree2016 spend so much time on comment threads rather than inflicing themselves on the public at large. And please, please, spend as much time and effeort as you can responding to my comment.
He was sticking it in faces of many for at least an hour before this happened.
He kept poking, and he got poked. He deserved it. Crash a party, you may get crashed.
What on Earth leads you to believe Trump would be able to effect that kind of change? What makes you think that one of the very people who benefits from the status quo would be inclined to fight to change it?
Beyond that, the man is a vocally racist, sexist, classist, xenophobic narcissist who encourages his supporters to physically assault those who speak out against him.
He is a facist who would be incredibly dangerous if he had the power of the presidency, not to mention that he is a downright embarrassment to the US in the eyes of the world.
What makes them think he was struck by a Trump supporter? I heard from somebody that it was a black lives matter person that came to the event just to see and hear what was going on.
Can you imagine somebody doing that?
@LiberalFree2016: nope.
What I'd like to know is, exactly which of Donald Trump's policies do the Left have a problem with? Is it his streamlining of the tax brackets from seven to four? Or is it his tax policy that says if you're and individual making $25,000 or less or married making $50,000 you will pay no taxes? Is it his immigration policy? Let me ask a you lefties something. What would you do if you came home from work and found people you didn't know sitting in your living room demanding to stay? Would you go out and leave your door wide open? Then why should our country do it? NO other country puts up with that so why should America? Why should certain cities in this country be allowed to blatantly ignore immigration law? This is a serious national security issue that the Left refuses to address. In addition to the murder of Kate Steinle, Hispanic gangs made up of many who are in this country illegally have been killing random Black people in California for over a decade! Many areas that were predominantly Black in LA are now predominantly Hispanic and illegal! So, yea, as a proud Black American i want that wall! Does the Left have a problem with Donald Trump's plan to bring jobs back into this country? The loss of manufacturing jobs (as well as illegal immigration) has devastated the Black community and many other parts of this country so why would the Left be opposed to Donald Trump's plan to repatriate all that corporate cash that's overseas at a low 10% tax rate or his policy which lowers the corporate tax rate to make corporate inversions unnecessary and keep jobs here at home? Why are we protecting other countries and not getting anything out of it and losing our jobs due to so-called "free trade" policies? Donald Trump is talking sense and it seems that the Left can't stand it and the only weapon they have is to play the race card like they always do when they have no other argument. Well, I've erased the "R" word from my vocabulary because it had become meaningless. I'm an American, Black, a woman and I'm proud to be supporting Donald J. Trump for President of the United States!
This man has hate issues. He wants to hate everybody whose opinion is not the same as his. I don't want that kind of America.
This man is full of shit! I was at that rally and there were TWO people, Sanders AND a woman--BOTH in KKK masks! These people are NOT protesters! They're agitators and their goal is to go to Trump rallies, cause chaos and shout down Donald Trump! These Left-wing agitators are responsible for ALL the drama at Trump rallies. Also, since Trump is financing his own campaign, a Trump rally is basically a private event so Trump can have these agitators removed. Protesters have the right to peacefully protest outside but they DON'T have the right to disrupt the rally or try to shut it down! Also, the media has conveniently tried to downplay the fact that the Trump supporter involved in the fight was Black! I, too, am Black and a Trump supporter because his policies will truly benefit ALL Americans! I tune out the noise and I don't let the Left do my thinking for me! TRUMP, TRUMP, TRUMP IN 2016!

CALGARY, Alberta (AP) After challenging his team to be better, Mike Smith went out and led by example.
Smith made 28 saves for his fourth shutout this season, Johnny Gaudreau scored in the second period and the Calgary Flames edged the Edmonton Oilers 1-0 on Tuesday night to end a seven-game losing streak against their provincial rival.
''Smitty is a real fiery, competitive guy and we wanted a different mindset coming in,'' Calgary coach Glen Gulutzan said. ''If you're a guy like him and you're competitive, you're going to say things and you want things, and it's going to be good for our group that he's backing them up.''
Calgary (35-26-10) is two points behind Dallas and Colorado, who occupy the two wild-card spots in the Western Conference. The Flames are also two points back of Los Angeles for third place in the Pacific Division.
After practice on Monday with the team reeling from Sunday's 5-2 setback to the New York Islanders, Smith was vocal about how everyone needed to step it up.
''It starts with your play on the ice. It's hard to talk in the room and to (the media) when you don't go out there and do your job,'' Smith said. ''It starts with yourself, taking care of what you can control.''
Calgary's commitment to preserving a one-goal lead was especially evident in the final minute. With the Oilers on a power play and goaltender Cam Talbot pulled to make it a 6-on-4, Troy Brouwer, Matt Stajan and Michael Frolik all blocked shots.
''To see guys lying down, blocking shots, guys getting over the red or the blue and dumping pucks in. We had a one-goal lead and we were riding our goalie and we felt that we didn't need to win the game 5-0,'' Flames defenseman Travis Hamonic said. ''We know that come playoff games, this is how you win games. Close scores like this.''
It was a superb bounce-back performance for Smith in his second game after missing a month with a lower-body injury. He was beaten four times on 26 shots Sunday against the Islanders.
''He's a very vocal guy on our team and he's one of our leaders and sometimes when you put yourself out there and say those things, you know you're going to follow it up with a good game yourself and everyone's going to follow suit,'' Hamonic said.
Talbot made 31 saves as Edmonton (30-35-4) had its three-game winning streak snapped.
''After last game they weren't too happy with their performance, so we knew we were going to get their best tonight,'' Talbot said. ''We knew we were going to get a desperate team that needs every point possible.''
The most dangerous Oilers player all night was Connor McDavid, who entered on a seven-game point streak (six goals, seven assists) and with 18 goals in his last 19 games. But despite a team-high five shots and several other setups, McDavid could not solve Smith.
Early in the third, Smith acrobatically kicked out his pad to rob Ryan Nugent-Hopkins on a one-timer after he was set up perfectly by McDavid. On that same shift, McDavid swooped in alone on Smith, only to be denied by the 35-year-old goalie.
Smith also made a highlight-reel stop late in the second to preserve the one-goal margin, getting his arm on a shot from Ryan Strome after a bad bounce resulted in the Edmonton center having the puck alone in front.
''We'd like to score some goals, but we created chances. Even at the end with the goaltender pulled, we had some good looks at the net,'' Oilers coach Todd McLellan said. ''Not overly disappointed in the effort. I'm disappointed in the outcome.''
Calgary scored at 5:18 of the second when Sean Monahan's pass found Gaudreau alone in front and he zipped a backhand over Talbot's shoulder.
Gaudreau's 22nd goal of the season extended his point streak to five games (two goals, five assists).
NOTES: Calgary made two lineup changes at forward, with Drew Shore and Chris Stewart inserted for Matthew Tkachuk (upper body) and Mark Jankowski (coach's decision). ... Kris Versteeg (hip) missed his 49th game for the Flames but is nearing a return and could play as soon as Friday. ... Ex-Flame Mike Cammalleri, who played in career game No. 900, has gone 30 games without a goal.
Oilers: Host the San Jose Sharks on Wednesday night.
Flames: Host the Sharks on Friday night.

The foreign ministers of several EU countries gave Ukraine a discouraging report yesterday (25 April) on its efforts to deepen ties with the bloc and suggested the jailing of opposition leader Yulia Tymoshenko remained a serious obstacle.
The ministers said agreements on free trade and political association with the European Union were being stymied in particular by cases of "selective justice", a term used by the West to describe the prosecution of rival politicians, including former prime minister Tymoshenko, under President Viktor Yanukovich.
Ukraine hopes to sign the deals at a summit in Vilnius in November. But Brussels has made it conditional on Kyiv passing a number of legal reforms and addressing Western criticism of its justice and electoral systems.
"The stakes are very high and time is very short," Polish Foreign Minister Rados?aw Sikorski told reporters in Kyiv on Thursday after meeting Yanukovich together with his colleagues from Lithuania, Denmark and the Netherlands.
"If the decision was to be taken now, I'm afraid, the answer on the signing would be 'no'," he said.
Yanukovich this month pardoned two former members of Tymoshenko's government who had been jailed on abuse-of-office charges, a move welcomed by Brussels.
But diplomats and analysts say he might be reluctant to do the same with regards to Tymoshenko, his fiercest political foe who led the 2004 Orange Revolution protests, derailing his first bid for presidency.
Tymoshenko was sentenced to seven years in prison in October 2011 on charges related to a 2009 gas deal with Russia which Yanukovich says has saddled Ukraine with an exorbitant energy prices.
Since last May, Tymoshenko, who has served twice as prime minister before narrowly losing the 2010 presidential run-off to Yanukovich, has been receiving treatment for back trouble in a state-run hospital in the city of Kharkiv.
Yanukovich himself says he cannot order her release because Tymoshenko is also due to be tried on tax evasion and embezzlement charges and is being investigated in a murder case. She has denied all charges against her.
The EU shelved the deals with Ukraine over Tymoshenko in 2011, when they were initially due to be signed.
"You (Ukraine) have to dismiss all doubts about selective justice," Lithuanian Foreign Minister Linas Linkevi?ius told reporters when asked about Tymoshenko. Lithuania will take over the rotating EU presidency on 1 July and host the Eastern Partnership summit in Vilnius on 28-29 November.
The EU says a deal needs to be sealed this year before the bloc turns its focus to European Parliament elections in 2014 and Ukraine itself holds a presidential election in 2015.
Poland's Sikorski urged Ukraine to act quickly.
"Ukraine has three critical months to do what is necessary… if we fail, we can spend decades, maybe generations arguing what went wrong," he said.

FC Porto snap up striker Aboubakar
FC Porto have signed Lorient's Cameroon international striker Vincent Aboubakar.
Aboubakar, 22, netted 16 league goals for a Lorient side that finished eighth in Ligue 1 last season and has been subject to plenty of speculation this summer over his future.
Indeed, Hull boss Steve Bruce said only two days ago: "He is someone we are aware of and he is a very good player, but whether something materialises I am not sure."
The Cameroon stars has instead decided to continue his career in Portugal, and reports suggest that the club have paid three millions euros to secure a 30 percent share of his rights.

Skiptrace finds Jackie Chan trying that odd Chinese-American combination yet again, but unfortunately he fails miserably this time. Johnny Knoxville fails to fire up that natural flair of comedy that Owen Wilson had so effortlessly aced in the Shanghai franchise. Unfortunately the movie falls like dominoes owing to a bland plot and an unvarying disconnect that rips apart whatever Skiptrace was trying to walk upon.
The direction of Skiptrace is absolutely pathetic. Renny Harlin isn't really sure what he wishes to show. You can see that confusion in his frames. Or maybe that element of clarity is missing from his head that clouds his judgment. Editing will compel you to shake your head. It is that bad.
Humour is quite confined, always acting contrary to our expectations. With Johnny Knoxville in the vanguard to stay as the primary entertainer of Skiptrace, expectations naturally shot up high. But Johnny made it all mediocre. You keep waiting for something funny, but then the wait becomes punishing.
The plot is forced upon to entertain a deliberate road trip. You feel the emptiness of it all when you see nothing substantial emanate from any corner. We are always heading towards something, so that's kind of good.
Chan and Knoxville create an okay chemistry though it is hard to compare their pairing up with the likes of what you have seen over the years.
Gone are those days when Jackie used to be young, and his fight scenes used to be the ogling kind. It always sends me back in time, when I try to remember all of his arresting fight sequences from the likes of Project A series, Who Am I, City Hunter, Armour of God and Police Story franchise. He still manages to entertain us nevertheless, but the quantum of combat bits in his movies has seen a gradual decline over the years. Maybe old age is doing that to him. It is in a way sad, because even when his movies didn't bank on a good storyline, he used to still uplift them with his jaw-dropping brawls. We miss that profusely.
Now that I think of it every Jackie Chan movie is ending up like that. Maybe for a change he should use a stunt double so that he doesn't hurt himself delivering those parkour like stunts, as is quite evident from his end credit scenes.
Skiptrace makes for a passable watch, preferable when you are fine with your brain taking a holiday for a change. You cannot help but think, it is time Jackie Chan amp up his entertaining quotient, by partnering up with either Owen Wilson or Tucker again. At least that magic was working for him.

A manager for Charlie Sheen said that the actor had actually entered rehab yesterday.
"[He] is currently in rehab," Mark Burg told People magazine. "He was bombarded by every rehab in the country looking for his wallet and publicity, and he has been deciding where to go. With the help of friends and family, he finally agreed to go and went into rehab on Saturday."
Burg, who is also an executive producer on Sheen's TV series "Two and a Half Men," told the magazine that his client has much to work on as far as his treatment goes. "Charlie hopes to be back at work in the near future but there is no time frame. Regaining his sobriety is what is most important."

it was previously reported that Sheen was in treatment on Friday, said the actor's rep Stan Rosenfield.
Last Thursday, the actor went to the hospital following what his publicist said were "severe abdominal pains."
According to People, the location of the rehab facility is unknown. Burg denied that Sheen thought about going to Malibu treatment center Promises, saying that "Charlie never drove to Malibu and Promises was not an option."
As a result of Sheen's current situation, production on Two and Half Men is now on hiatus.

Bigham Would Use "The Crowd" to Help People With Disabilities
Computer Science Professor Jeffrey Bigham has won a National Science Foundation (NSF) CAREER Award for his proposal, "Closed-Loop Crowd Support of People with Disabilities."
Bigham describes his work at the University of Rochester as being "at the intersection of human-computer interaction, human computation, and artificial intelligence," with a focus on developing innovative technologies that serve people with disabilities. His NSF proposal would enable a dynamic group of people on the web ("the crowd") to work collectively to help those who are visually impaired or have other disabilities.
For example, a person who is blind or deaf may be in need of directions, but other people are not always available to lend a hand. The challenge for Bigham is how to develop an interactive system that provides high-quality feedback in real-time while compensating for unreliable individuals and constant turnover in the crowd.
Last year, Bigham released his VizWiz application, which allows people who are blind to take pictures with their iPhones and ask questions, then quickly (in under a minute) receive responses from the crowd. In that way, the blind person in need of directions can be told where he or she is located and how to get to a destination.
"While VizWiz works quickly," said Bigham, "it doesn't provide the real-time feedback loop necessary for many real-world tasks."
The NSF has awarded Bigham $500,000 under the Faculty Early Career Development (CAREER) Program to carry out the research for his proposal over the next five years.
The CAREER awards are given "in support of junior faculty who exemplify the role of teacher-scholars through outstanding research, excellent education and the integration of education and research within the context of the mission of their organizations," according to the NSF program guidelines.
"The NSF award is designed to help launch the careers of young researchers," said Henry Kautz, Computer Science Chair at the University. "It's confirmation that Bigham is an up-and-coming leader in the field of human-computer interaction and web cloud computing."
Bigham did undergraduate work at Princeton University and earned both his master's degree and Ph.D. from the University of Washington. He came to the University of Rochester as an assistant professor in July 2009.
The University of Rochester (www.rochester.edu) is one of the nation's leading private universities. Located in Rochester, N.Y., the University gives students exceptional opportunities for interdisciplinary study and close collaboration with faculty through its unique cluster-based curriculum. Its College of Arts, Sciences, and Engineering is complemented by the Eastman School of Music, Simon School of Business, Warner School of Education, Laboratory for Laser Energetics, Schools of Medicine and Nursing, and the Memorial Art Gallery.

A pair of silver Nissan GT-Rs left the line, but only one made it to the end of the track. The other lost control and nearly spun into the right wall, before spinning back the other way and nearly colliding with the left wall. Godzilla was inches away from getting smashed.
This near-near-near-collision happened at the TX2K12 event at Lonestar Motorsports Park. The same event that spawned this bit of Mustang idiocy.
What started out as an all Supra event has turned into a basic car meet for the modified scene and an open drag race for people to test out their skill or, in the case of the GT-R, their luck.

Smart Phones (Finally) Get Smart Keyboards
Typing for long periods on a glass keyboard can be a problem but two new apps - SwiftKey 3 and SnapKeys - and the new Blackberry 10 are changing how it's done. WSJ's Katherine Boehret likes the approaches but says they will take some getting used to.

I ... she deeper at Apple Wall Street Journal ... if you're one of the many people here hate striking on on screen keyboard that is using glass screen and tapping away ... you are not alone ... this is a very common problem and one of the most frustrating things for people who use the guns in answering phones ... with these types of keyboards so this link ... to collect data couple apps that make this process a little easier ... I tested out Swiss ski freeing it which is a three dollars and ninety nine cent app from the Android Google Play store ... and I also took a look at something cold snap he is after I ... strips Keith rain is a really smart keyboard a basically has studied all sorts of language across the internet ... great all sorts of Internet behavior and different wording and steady but people say and what words come before other words ... he uses that knowledge in the ... so that you can tied to enable predict but you're going to say after every single word ... seeking just keep on typing and select predicted words that pop up ... after you've typed just one ladder and the process that is extremely fast you can just Viv along through e-mails ... and I really enjoyed it also has a smarts feature that knows where the space but go ... hand in support of fifty four different languages with alterations the plane which is like British English or ... Australian English so ... they will very quickly switched it screened at those different languages so if you have different ILX ... you can switch between those as well ... so I really enjoyed using the keyboard it with the season can happen and it's very into it ... I tested out snack he is XII and this is a new keyboard at very different kinds that to kind of throws the whole idea of Koriki word out the window ... and in place that that layout gives you four different squares ... in just twelve letters on the square and found quite bizarre and it is and he really just have to tap on these squares ... to create your birds ... to feed on the one of the letters you want on a square feet at the center of the screen where there are no letters and hope that if the engine that's using the app gets the word right that you're trying to spell ... in many cases this type of real learning curve I had to try a lot of different words before in got it right ... in and I and I was thirty desperately hoping for the Acree keyboard layout after I use it for awhile that ... if you really wanna try learning something very different snap peas that I might be the way to go ... is attractive and that it doesn't take up a lot of screen space on the bottom of your screen only half the Foursquare's ... another nice feature is that's it basically allows you to use your time which could be thicker fingers then you never really Nestle are trying to tap so that's also a bonus ...

First published: 16th February 2001
As we promised in Apache Week issue 210,
here is our review of "mod_perl Pocket
Reference" by Andrew Ford, who also maintains the mod_perl quick reference card.
In the tradition of the pocket reference series, this book measures 4.25
by 7 inches and consists of one main body that is divided into
sections. In the introduction, which is the first of sixteen
subtopics, it clearly states its objectives or rather what it is not
meant to be. The book aspires to cover all of mod_perl 1.24's classes,
methods and configuration directives but cautions that it is not a
self-contained user guide. Its readers are assumed to be acquainted with
mod_perl, web server technology and object-oriented Perl programming.
With the impressive names of Perl gurus in its "acknowledgements" section,
one would not expect this book to go wrong anyway. Within its 83 pages,
it manages to squeeze in a brief explanation of the formatting conventions
The first few sections of this book run through the basic functionality
of mod_perl, the HTTP protocol, the list of phases in which Apache
processes its requests, and provides the reader with references for further
information. Next is a brief tutorial on getting mod_perl to work
with Apache - but as this is not a full-blown user guide, one is expected to
have installed mod_perl before.
Moving on to migrating CGI scripts to mod_perl, it highlights the
differences between using Apache::Registry and
Apache::PerlRun which are two standard Apache/Perl modules
that run unaltered CGI scripts. It also suggests a nice five step
migration strategy.
Section 7 explores embedding Perl scripting within HTML pages using the
standard mod_include and the Apache::SSI
Apache/Perl module. Template systems based on or compatible with mod_perl
are not covered but are listed in the later portion of this book.
The next section provides an overview of developing Apache modules in
Perl, touching briefly on handlers for various request-processing phases
and debugging. This is then followed by a list of the mod_perl API with a
short description of each function. It clarifies that each
installation of mod_perl may not support every feature described in the list.
It would be useful if the book provided a pointer on enabling
each feature, as there is little use in knowing about a particular feature
but not knowing how to enable support for it. As it stands, this list
can be considered the core of the book as it takes up nearly one third of
the pages.
After that, the Apache configuration directives implemented by mod_perl
are presented followed by a list of Apache/Perl modules grouped by
functionality. Both are accompanied by a more detailed description of their
function than the online Apache/Perl module list and the mod_perl.html
page. It also indicates which modules are included in the mod_perl
distribution and distinguishes between core and non-core modules.
The last three sections include a list of CGI environment variables, HTTP
status codes, and HTTP header fields, which may be required during
mod_perl programming. Lastly, the book concludes with an index of modules
and methods provided by mod_perl.
Currently some people use mod_perl simply to run existing Perl CGI
scripts, but as can be seen from this extremely concise book, mod_perl
offers much more than that. The book provides a good overall coverage of
this versatile module, keeping all the necessary facts simple, short and
precise without glossing over anything important.
I would highly recommend this book to mod_perl lovers as they may discover
something that they may have missed while using the module. As for the
experts, this book may be quite handy as a quick revision guide. It is
also an excellent source of information for users who have been using
mod_perl for only a short while. It will definitely save them the trouble
of reading through a thick manual to flesh out mod_perl's potential. But
then of course one must have a complete mod_perl "bible" nearby to refer
to, for detailed installation, configuration and programming instructions.
Users who have never encountered Apache, Perl and mod_perl before are well
advised to read the online mod_perl documentation and have some hands-on
experience before giving this reference book a go. Otherwise they may
find themselves wandering off and giving mod_perl a miss, as this is not a
beginner's guide.

Climate change may trigger pest attacks on cassava
[MANILA] The multi-billion dollar cassava industry of South–East Asia may already be suffering from multiple pest and disease outbreaks triggered by climate change, cassava researchers have told a conference in Bangkok.
Although the crop can thrive in hotter and dryer conditions in the region, an increase in pests and diseases could easily wipe out recent productivity gains, researchers said at the Climate Smart Agriculture in Asia: Research and Development Priorities Conference this month (11–12 April).
Scientists from the International Centre for Tropical Agriculture (CIAT) and the Climate Change, Agriculture and Food Security (CCAFS) programme noted that the pest situation in the region is already serious, and could get much worse as temperatures rise.
"Many of the current pest-disease problems could already be due to climate change," said CCAFS programme director Bruce Campbell. He added that the growing pest problem coincides with the warming conditions and changing rainfall pattern in the region.
Cassava is a major staple food in many developing countries. In South–East Asia, about five million small-scale farmers depend on the crop. Although it is not a major consumer of cassava, Thailand is the world's biggest exporter of the crop, accounting for 60 per cent, followed by Vietnam with over 12 per cent, according to data from CIAT and the FAO.
In recent years, cassava farms in the region have seen outbreaks of green mite and mealy bugs which are believed to have originated from South America. They are more dangerous than endemic species as they lack natural enemies, said CIAT's agricultural geographer Glenn Graham Hyman.
Hyman called on government and industry to support pest monitoring systems.
Hanoi-based Rod Lefroy, CIAT coordinator for Asia, told SciDev.Net that while complete elimination of pests is very difficult, infestation can be reduced through removal and destruction of disease-infested plants, cultivation of varieties tolerant or resistant to certain pests or diseases, use of clean planting materials, and a reduction of transfer of planting materials from infested areas.
Lefroy said scientists should understand pests and diseases so they can assist in monitoring them, and in identifying traits of tolerance or resistance.
Governments could develop advisory services for farmers, Campbell said.
In India, for example, three million farmers get weather alerts that could be used to predict pests and disease outbreaks and advise farmers on what can be done to counter the outbreaks, said Campbell.
