Talks to avoid the so-called fiscal cliff are expected to pick up this week as Congress returns to work.
But a promised second White House meeting on the crisis between President Barack Obama and top congressional leaders still has not been scheduled -- a possible sign that staff discussions over the Thanksgiving recess did not yield the progress leaders hoped.
"The talks in the last week haven't been tremendously productive," said a Senate Democratic leadership aide who described the main sticking point as the refusal of Republicans "to get specific about what they would accept in terms of revenues."
Obama met with congressional leaders on November 16. Afterward, the Republican and Democratic lawmakers voiced support for finding an agreement in a rare show of bipartisanship.
Staff talks were supposed to lead to a second White House meeting this week but only if they made enough progress on a draft proposal that would be reviewable by the chief negotiators.
The Democratic aide said negotiations are not at a point "where people are huddled in a conference room with spread sheets" but are instead at the early "dancing stage" of negotiations.
Most of the talks over the recess took place over the phone but a few occurred in one-on-one in-person meetings on Capitol Hill, according to multiple aides.
Despite the negative read-out from the Democratic aide, congressional Republican leadership aides declined to characterize the state of the talks which are being spearheaded by aides to Obama and House Speaker John Boehner, but also include other congressional leaders.
One GOP aide accused Democrats who are not central to the negotiations of leaking details of the talks in order to portray Republicans negatively. Another GOP aide noted that the talks are continuing, which itself can be read as progress.
The White House said on Monday the president reached out on Saturday to Boehner and Senate Democratic Leader Harry Reid to touch base about their efforts to avert the crisis.

*Update* ABC Channel 20 and NBC Channel 17 in Springfield covered Action Now members rallying outside of the Capitol Building on Wednesday, November 28th demanding a raise in the minimum wage!
Click here for ABC video & click here for NBC video
It's veto session in Springfield, which means it is a crucial time to pass the bill to raise the minimum wage, Senate Bill 1565. Please call and email your Illinois Senator and Representative and tell them to pass a minimum wage increase during veto session!
Click here to send a petition letter directly to your State Senator and Representative.
Click here to find your legislators and their phone numbers by entering your address.
We have been told by politicians and business lobbyists for years that it is not the right time to increase the minimum wage, but we know that the working poor can't wait any longer for a raise! The minimum wage is in Illinois is currently $8.25, which is not enough to live on. A hardworking American with a full-time job should not be in poverty!
It is unjust that CEOs of big businesses are making thousands of dollars an hour, but they refuse to pay their workers a decent wage. Right now, the minimum wage doesn't mean "the minimum amount needed to live." It means "the minimum amount that rich corporations can get away with paying."
Below are links to recent articles & studies about why the minimum wage should be increased (feel free to send these to your legislators as well):
Huffington Post, "Minimum Wage, the Poverty Trap, and America's Imperative" by Sanjay Sanghoee
A new report, "Pulling Apart: A State-by-State Analysis of Income Trends" by the Center on Budget and Policy Priorities, highlights growing income inequality in each state (Illinois is in the top ten) and recommends raising the minimum wage

Best Baby Bather!!!
By Mom of 3
from massachusetts
About Me Parent of Two or More Children
Comments about Leachco Safer Bather:
Do not purchase any other baby tub! The others are bulky and do not seem comfortable for baby or adult. This is perfect for newborns and is easy for adults to use to support and wash him/her. I have used as an insert for a baby tub too!It's great for travel and easily dries. I have used the same one for five years and three babies. I keep purchasing them to give as shower gifts. It is a new parent must-have!
Works well

About Me First Time Parent
I bought this based upon reviews from other customers and it was spot on as people described. Our daughter seems to be very comfortable on it and it fits perfectly in the tub we have for her. With the hanger included it dries easily - you do need to squeeze the water out, but after that, hang it in your shower and it drip dries perfectly and you can launder it as well since it is made of polyester. I would recommend this product.
Safe and Comfy
By First time mom
from Chicago, IL
Love this item! Hangs easily for drying purposes and keeps my son from slipping around the tub while playing.
Love it!
By Jayne the pain
from Huntsville, Ohio
My baby girl would cry and cry and often look afraid when I bathed her. I bought this hoping it would help. Now I can use both hands to wash her instead of holding her head out of the water with one. It is comfortable and lets her get just enough water to keep her warm and slash a little. She loves baths now! I use a bathroom hook to hang it up in the shower so it is out of the way for the rest of us, but doesn't get anything else wet as it dries. I haven't had trouble with mildew - I just ring it and hang it. I love it!
Transformed bath time!!
By NYC mum
from New York, NY
I used to have a hard plastic infant tub with a sling and spent most of bath time repositioning my daughter as she slipped down in the sling. At first, I was resistant to using the big tub and was searching for a better seat or sling. We used to have lots of tears during bath time...the first time I sat my daughter on the Safer Bather she gave me a huge smile and we have never looked back! We started using it around 4.5 months and are still using it at almost 7 months. I laid her flat on it until she was able to sit unassisted and now she sits up on it (prevents slipping on the tub surface). It is really comfortable for her and keeps her warm. I hold it sideways to let the water drain out quickly, then give it a few squeezes, then hang it up to finish drying. There is a very mild mildew smell but nothing compared to the way the previous sling mildewed. I am buying this for my friends who are expecting!
This is the only baby gift I give!!
By Nana

About Me Grandparent
Use when baby has a cold to elevate head so they can sleep...used to give our twin grandkids bottlesat same time...granddaughter used it to put her baby in after her bath to dry her off...daughter used it for herself in the bath to lean back against...
Helped baby love the bath
By Izzy
from new York
our son hated the bath in his pricey infant bath seat. Got this as a gift and was not impressed until we used it. The previously screaming baby laughed the first time we used it. Great for infants who really want to be wet rather than just get a sponge bath. Not the prettiest looking item but who cares when it worked like a charm.
By Laura
from stafford, va
Used this with both my children! It is wonderful! Loved giving my babies baths on this and knowing they weren't cold or lying on something made of hard plastic.
Calling all practical moms!!!
By Designer Mom
from Camarillo, CA
About Me Parent of Multiples (Twins etc)
This is the only way to go if you are at all tight on space. Where in the heck do you store a big bulky (and expensive) baby bath? This was so nice to have when my toddler was an infant, which is why I've purchased one for baby-on-the-way. You place it in the tub, fill tub a few inches with water and bath as usual. When your done you just rinse it and hang it (using the hanger it comes with) over the shower-head to dry. My only complaint is that the fabric is a little scratchy (hence the 4-stars instead of 5). I simply layed a fresh hand towel over it each time and it was great!

Looks cheap
By mommysusana
from boston,ma
It looks like a good idea and cute on the picture but when I received it,the product looks cheap and ugly.
Great product
By gunther
from barnegat, NJ
Great product for the bath. comfortable for baby, can use for a long time, cushion dries nicely
Makes bathtime enjoyable
By e_wheeler
from Seattle, WA
About Me First Time Parent, Parent of Multiples (Twins etc)
Great bather, makes bath time easier. Give a nice hands free bathing experience. Both boys love laying on the mat in the water and splash the water with their hands. The material helps keeps the boys warm while offering a soft cushion for support. If they wiggle too much, they can wiggle off the mat, and while sitting up to wash back/tushy, the mat can slip around. No problem drying out if directions are followed. We are able to use every night, and it's completely dry.
Perfect for the bath
By Carrie
from Seattle
This is the second go around with the Safer Bather. Our 2 year old used it successfully, so I bought another for our 3 month old (our first one got a lot of use, so we just tossed it). It is great for putting in the big bathtub. Great head support and comfortable for the baby. It comes with a small hanger that you use to dry it. A great product!

not what I expected!
By criver34
from New Jersey
It is just a cushion for the bath tub. I thought it was going to have some kind of stand or something. It is only practical for a very small infant who doesn't move.

Safer Bather
By Michele
from Boston, Massachusetts
I love this bather. It travels well and works great in small baths as well as standard size baths. We have used this product with our first two children and will be using it again with our third.

Lumia 620 shipping with updated firmware also has new Storage management options
It appears that a very few Lumia 620's have already come off of the line with the latest firmware on board. That's perhaps to be expected, but it also looks like it's this firmware that will bring advanced Storage management, including the ability to clear temporary cache files in "other" storage.
Currently, most Lumia 620's are on the 1250 firmware. A few days ago, 1304 began to populate Navifirm and sure enough within the last day or so, 1307 has appeared for one device/region. It is that 1307 firmware that brings this new ability (we know only because we're on 1304 ourselves). The OS though is the same Portico 10211 as found on current Windows Phones.
New Lumia 620 1307 firmware found on Navifirm
Last week, we mentioned how the new Lumia 920 firmware 1308 also brings new Storage options similar to the ones found on the Lumia 620. That tells us that this appears to be either an OS-level enabled feature that is activated via firmware or it is a Nokia specific feature that is installed during the firmware update. At this point, it's still too early to tell between those although it's starting to look like a Nokia-fix to the problem.
Currently, users on Windows Phone are facing an "other storage" problem whereby it fills up with some bad information or files that failed to uninstall. As a result, users can lose gigabytes of potential storage space to this filled area with no direct way to clean it. Microsoft has acknowledged the problem recently and mentioned fixes on the way, of which this seems to be at least one.
A look at the new Storage Check options found with the updated firmware
With this new Lumia 620 firmware enabling this feature we can only imagine that Nokia is preparing a new firmware update rollout for numerous devices across their portfolio. Judging by what is found on Navifirm though, we still have a few more weeks to go before that begins, as many devices have not had new firmware packages uploaded meaning they are still being tested. It's also unclear if a new OS update will come with this rollout i.e. GDR2.

Well in time. Will be getting it soon.
jaY1929 says:
Please hurry up and release the update for L920 ..
I was never been this excited for a firmware update .. lol
Etyrnus says:
You didn't have the focus flash proximity sensor lockup problem then. But equally exciting.
groovecain says:
So True ~~ Lol , hope they distribute it wordwide fast
electriclamb says:
This will be so awedome, one more reason I can stand behind my 920 with confidence when trying to coax my friends into switching from iPhones and gs3's
sri_tech says:
As a big fan of WP I will be very disappointed if the GDR2 does not bring missing features in addition to fix for this other storage issue.
On the user voice site the features like notification system, multiple volumes, universal search are requested long back. Some time lines for the top requests (most votes from users):
Multiple volumes: Sep 29, 2011
Enable all Bing features for non US-countries: Sep 28, 2011
Notifications: Aug 5, 2011
VPN: Mar 3, 2011
Closing apps from multitasking view: Sep 29, 2011
Week view in Calendar: Mar 3, 2011
It has been two years since the people requested for VPN support and week view in calendar. I think Microsoft really sucks. They are concentrating more time for some shit like kids corner that no one care than adding important features that are badly missing.
Basic features like notifications, multiple volumes, closing apps are requested 18 months back.
Why did they remove FM radio feature. It may not be required in US and UK but that's a must have feature in countries like India.
I don't know why it is taking so much time for Microsoft to add these features with so many employees and so much money.
If they are going to take another 6 months for major update then it will be very bad.
If not for Nokia and their continued efforts to give the best to the consumers WP would have been dead by now.
jlynnm350z says:
Get ready to be disappointed. . .
mrshamoozoo says:
+1000. its not that hard for microsoft to implement some of those things in the next update. at least custom sms. i have 3 roommates that have wp8 and we cant tell whos phone is ringing, all the 15 tones sound the same!
Ahmed Nematallah says:
you have 3 roommates with WP8? I have yet to see someone using a WP8
hwangeruk says:
That's because you have no friends.
Alexandre Donnert says:
I made mine. I were tweeting all your post to @joebelfiore. I don't know if it will work, if he will read. But, I think that if we all tweet some like that to him, maybe he can think like us.
helsten2 says:
How about fixing the bugs first? Like the random freeze and reboot issues?
Then you add new features/functionality, nice-to-haves ...
TechAbstract says:
You have a bad hardware. Go replace it.
Thiagarajan Iyer says:
The radio is coming to L920
Alexandre Donnert says:
Hey man, I were tweeted to joeBelfiore all your coment, and he have aswered me, Look at his aswers:
I have finished with this:
@joebelfiore Isn't it amazing that Nokia continues to sort out problems and push out updates. Yet MS have done nothing about it. Why??
And he have aswered me with this:
@AlexandreMDS Thanks for all the suggestions & comments. Keep in mind.. one update shipped for WP8 already...
@AlexandreMDS ... and we are working on more. We aren't pre-announcing these super early, as then folks get unhappy waiting.
@AlexandreMDS On Kids Corner vs. other... for WP8 launch we targeted a BROAD audience of "normal users" to help drive platform features..
@AlexandreMDS ...and this is working. Ads growing awareness, volumes growing, pulls apps to#WP8. And more to come. Thx for feedback!
hwangeruk says:
Typical "management" answer. This didn't come up in our focus group.
I do agree "gadget geeks" and people in this comment section aren't "normal", we aren't you know :)
But normal people don't want a decent calendar?
Normal people don't want a different volume on music playing to phone ringing?
GTFOOH, of course they do Joe, answers are weak. Excuses cost nothing. Coding the features is simple (or many of them are)
Just blinkin' get on with it MS.
Marcin J says:
davepermen says:
not all of those user requested things make sense. the others should get implemented. some will, that's documented.
nube_android says:
This is why I switched to Android
ammarmalik2011 says:
I was the next update to bring NEW features. This is the second update we'll be getting that's mostly aimed at fixing gaping holes in the OS.
tissotti says:
To be honest though, that's what iOS and Android were doing for the first 3 years against Symbian. Just around that time both of the platforms really started expanding.
Rishiraj Sisodi says:
We need this in 7.8 :( very badly
GudsFortapelse says:
I agree with you on most of your points. I too, am disappointed in Microsoft's timing for releasing what the public is asking for, but in my opinion, I can understand to a degree why they are focusing on other points. They still need to have some advantages that the other OS's don't have (like kids corner), those are the eye catchers...but yes, they really need to catch up with the rest of the pack. What pisses me off the most is the fact that they won't even acknowledge whether they're adding it at some point or not...why does it have to be a big friggin' secret!? If they're soo worried about not being able to stay within a credible time frame for releasing updates, then they should take a second look at who's running the show. iOS updates are religious annually, you could set your watch to them...and Android, if they hear that their users want something baked in, then they do what they can, as fast as they can to make that happen. Microsoft needs a kick in the ass, so they can wake up and realize they have officially created a fan base with Windows Phone, and they should act accordingly.
WinFan1 says:
i wholeheartedly agree with this comment. microsoft is moving at an icebergs pace. i dont need to know when the updates are coming just confirmation that they are coming. i dont need to know all the details but they could give some hints as to what to expect, also there shouldnt be any reason to keep updates that are going to add bug fixes, random reboots, and something simple like notifications sounds and seperate volumes secret as thats something that the competition has already implemented. By announcing those add-ons people will become less agitated at least knowing they are coming. All im saying is that they dont need to throw all the cards on the table to keep people happy.
hwangeruk says:
I agree, they should have transparency.
* We are working on X
* Release 2 will have feature Y
teufelbr says:
The question is: does it work?
Devashish Purandare says:
It does, reduced my Other storage from 2.00 Gb to 500Mb
zikifer says:
Absolutely need this on my 8X - got 4 GB of Other space used, which is 25% of my total space.
Brandon619 says:
Same need this for my 8x as well no way do I have that much apps and songs that I should be under 5gbs hah
Jaskys says:
Sorry but this is an exlusive Nokia update and HTC, samsung, huawei can just go and die slowly...
zikifer says:
First off, competition is good. We don't want a single manufacturer building Windows Phones - then we'd be like Apple where one company dictates the hardware. Second, we already know this feature is part of an OS-level update - they have said as much - so it is unlikely it will remain Nokia exclusive for long.
Etios says:
If its Nokia who have released the firmware then you should not complain and wait for the HTC firmware update, they may release it if they care.
procen says:
Did you try "shrink storage" ? this will clean your system from unwanted files, and it helps me get 2G.
David Bozic says:
I have a 920 and it says my firmware is 1230.
jsayz says:
Try having 18.48 GB taken from you.
DenniSundaY says:
I hope this is coming to htc 8x. 8x had as earliest the new portico update nut know Nokia is in advantage.
interopbyt says:
That's good! Although my other space is barely 2 GB =P
Devashish Purandare says:
This firmware came with my Lumia 620, bought yesterday in India.
It allows you to clear other storage,(for me ~500 Mb) and see memory used by each app, along with memory used by mails, contacts etc
some more screenshots are here http://sdrv.ms/YO0Azv
Tomasz S. says:
Now that looks awesome. Looks like Nokia is providing the missing WP features instead of lazy Microsoft.
I suspect this actually may be delivered as an app through the marketplace, like the other bonus/extra settings from Nokia. Would be nice, cause otherwise we'll be waiting at leat 3 months before we get the update for existing phones.
LumiaEOS says:
From where did you got?? my friend ordered this phone on Flipkart, its still in Preorder status!!!
sarim_xyz says:
Lumia 620 is available on Nokia India Online Store http://nokia.indiatimes.com/nokia/nokia-nokia-lumia/. Don't know about physical stores though.
Devashish Purandare says:
I got it from Nokia Priority store in Pune.
Etios says:
Thats very good, the application/firmware covers many things like, other,music,video, app install sizes etc etc, even office, email and contacts storage is shown.
Gomez9 says:
With Regards to the 620, my Cuz has this phone and his Skype is always continuously on, so I feel all phones need the firm update, not just drips here and there.
DreadVenom says:
Thanks for sharing that. It was exactly what i thought it would be. As to why MS didn't have this in the OS already is anyone's guess. I wonder if there will also be a task management system implemented too. Seeing how much ram and cpu an app is using would be great. They cud probably put this function as part of the notification system.
siddharaj says:
Hey devashish hw iz 620 ??
Devashish Purandare says:
The phone is great, esp the screen and Camera.
Anyway Dear WPCENTRAL, you've used my Images, Credit wont hurt...

Hi there,
I manually flash this firmware thru nokia care suite, but there were no option to clear the storage..
jlynnm350z says:
My "other" is growing out of control and starting to take over my phone. Its madness I say!
DenniSundaY says:
My other is 5,3gb and growing over time...
mr toes says:
My other is growing outside of my phone now, is starting to grow a brain and has told me about its plans for world domination
Sean Burns1 says:
Isn't it amazing that Nokia continues to sort out problems and push out updates. Yet MS have done nothing about it. Why?? I have a 620 on ThreeUK and had no real issues with it at all except the occasional screen freeze for a few seconds. Good one Nokia
ajithkingsley says:
It is amazing. and that is why I love Nokia!!
I get the feeling that MS can rather hand over the WP division to Nokia who IMO can do a wonderful job
Tahiti Bob says:
How about releasing Portico for UK unlocked phones Nokia? We're in March goddammit!
endacrowley says:
I got Portico on mine on 28.02.2013...
conair346 says:
I had portico on my 820. Traded it in with Carphone Warehouse due to previous issues. Now have 620 with portico. Both handsets network free.
Chiranjeeb Jena says:
Good to see my 1st tip posted :)
I m going to buy a 620 soon but i m little bit worried about the Multitouch issue...???
Devashish Purandare says:
Using 620 here, no multitouch issues, the screen is a 10 point multitouch display, and works well, I ran all sorts of multi touch tests from the store,no problem.
napu says:
Many have issues with multitouch on the Lumia 620. Just check the forum:
mrshamoozoo says:
@Daniel, have you heard anything about custom sms tones in an upcoming update???
JonnieLasVegas says:
This would be so nice!
Tomasz S. says:
Wow, that makes the 620 better for gaming than my 820, on which after doing "shrink storage" a dozen times I can't get my "other" below 3GB while having only 1GB of apps and games.
Chiranjeeb Jena says:
Thank you. :)
Shambels says:
Please allow apps to be on SD cards!!!
paulheu says:
Would require a core OS rewrite and will _never_ happen.. Not that it is readily available on other platforms either..
JonnieLasVegas says:
Yes! I love this option on my tab 2!
Xaphoon148 says:
Good News :)
paulheu says:
Easy workaround the storage 'issue' is to write a few large files (like videos) to the phone in sequence. This will reduce the space used for 'other' Then remove the files again and storage will stay smaller..
Gomez9 says:
With Regards to the 620, my Cuz has this phone and his Skype is always continuously on, so I feel all phones need the firm update, not just drips here and there.
Traderhorn says:
Hi just bought 620 today sim free /unlocked/ Black in UK , it has 1304, on it, old phone HTC Radar, 620 is much
paulheu says:
The firmware appears to be for India where the 620 is getting into stores just now. I would not be surprised if it also limits access to downloadable music to the India region requiring a local SIM and offering Nokia Music Unlimited Subscription only.
heijenoort says:
Cool! 8)
travisel says:
Does anyone know what name there giving for GDR2 update yet?
What is the official number of GDR2 update? 11308-11311
Ikhwan Hanip says:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mm-Df2a95v8 lumia 920 with storage check ready!
Iain_S says:
I actually installed the UK variant 1232.5957.1308.0004 on my Rogers L920, even though right now i dont get my LTE, the actual phone runs much better, seems like they have done some nice refinements in this release to the software, battery life seems improved once again, camera seems improved again and just the basic feel of the os as a whole seems more responsive.
ej1024 says:
I agree,msft has to fix software as needed keep patching the hell of wp8,if they can do that with w8 im sure they can with wp8,and what's the purpose of same kernel bullshit if it will still take them 3 months to fix it.. Fml
AlexRodriguezNY says:
You can use SHRINK STORAGE app from the marketplace to clear storage in your Window Phone
haggishunter81 says:
Can't download certain games and apps at the moment, other storage is killing the memory, they really need to get this stuff sorted, I've had a lot of problems and annoyances with my Lumia820 so far, my old hd7 was solid as a rock.
iggypop120 says:
Plz send the 620 to the USA
congthanhgiong says:
100% that's microsoft fix i believe 'because these things are OS system behavior. I dont think nokia can get access to these areas to fix it alone.
Memitim says:
This update apparently includes flip-to-silence as well :D
jonaths1204 says:
Is this firmware update available in HTC too?
gilesjuk says:
This is where Nokia let themselves down just like HTC. Too many handsets and not enough decent support. Why support 5 or more Windows handsets instead of two?
WinFan1 says:
to hit different price points for developing markets as well already established markets.
Raghu Gundlapalli says:
nice option, cant wait for this.
Sean Burns1 says:
I hope my Three branded 620 gets the update soon. Cheked this morning,nothing as yet
Sukesh Kumar says:
What a phone guys..!!! Awesome Windows Phone!! Loved it so much that I couln't stop myself from reviewing it!! Happy Owner of this phone!! Tell me if something is missing!!
And what an awesome site!!! Wpcentral always keep me updated!!!
Mic3Rocks says:
My firmware version shows the new update of 1307, but em not able to see the Storage Check option.
Should i reset my phone?
I hope this wont void my warranty...

There is something so special about a reunion with your group of girlfriends. This past weekend, Sari, one of my dearest friends from college, came to visit. Most of us girls live here in Chicago, so Sari coming in made us complete for a short while. If we were guys, we would probably say something like "we're getting the band back together!" but we're not, so instead we go to brunch and shop. It's a little scary to think about the fact that I met my college friends 10 years ago. So it makes sense that when we hang out these days, things are a little different. We are older, we have jobs, some of us have husbands and boyfriends, we have crazy busy schedules, and like to get up early on Saturday morning to go to yoga. But when someone comes to visit and the group is reunited, it somehow feels like we've been transported back 10 years. Even though we know a lot has changed, it suddenly feels, just for a little while, like the old days. In college, I had my girls—a constant support system, guaranteed plans for every night, a group of confidants. And while we are for the most part still a very tight group, nothing really compares to the type of friendship and bonding that comes with living with your best girlfriends 24/7 in a college atmosphere. See, that's the great thing about college—everyone is at the same place in life. There is very little to worry about except finishing your paper and what you're going to wear out to the bar that night. These days, we are all at different places in our lives—I have friends who are single, engaged, married, new mommies, students and professionals that run the spectrum from searching for the perfect job to being settled in a career. And that makes things a little harder on friendships. This is an anxious time for most of us—we are coming into ourselves as adults, dealing with real life issues and learning that though we walked together at graduation as a group, now our paths may take us in different directions. I'm very lucky in that most of my friends from both high school and college live here in Chicago, except for a few very close friends who have settled elsewhere. And it's weekends like these that remind me of just how amazing my friends are. I guess the point of all this is that this weekend was kind of a wakeup call for me. A reminder of what I had, still have, and what I need to make sure never to lose. Yes, I'm married now, and yes my friends and I all have very busy lives as young professionals, but we should work to keep our friendships strong. And when times get tough, we can always get the band back together, bond over egg white omelettes, go out and have a good time and still wake up in time for yoga.

Let's Make a Meal: Outdoor cooking a big part of camping trip
BY Luke Clayton, Special to Star Local News
Cooking outdoors using a cast iron skillet or Dutch oven adds much to the ambiance of a camping trip.
There is something very special about removing the lid from a Dutch kettle and smelling a freshly baked peach cobbler cooked beside a campfire. I love to transform the fruits of my hunting and fishing trips into tasty meals, at camp and back at home.
Scheduling time to cook into a busy hunting or fishing trip can be tough. After all, hunting or fishing is the primary reason for the outing, right? Yes, but you and your buddies/family still have to eat. Why settle for a peanut butter and jelly sandwich when a tasty meal everyone will remember can be easily prepared and, with a little forethought, allow you plenty of time to enjoy the primary reason you are outdoors: hunting and fishing.
I learned a long time ago not to wait until after the evening hunt to begin these more time-consuming meals. There's always the option of preparing the meals at home, packing them in the ice cooler and heating them up at camp, but that's just not camp cooking. I enjoy cooking at camp, over hardwoods coals, a camp stove or, if there is electricity handy, slow-smoking meats overnight on my Smokin' Tex electric smoker.
Here are some tried and tested recipes that are easy to prepare and well received at camp.
Camp fajitas
Through the years, I've made fajitas at camp for everything from elk steak to wild turkey breast.
Fajita meat is best if allowed to season a few hours or overnight.
I usually cut the fajita meat into strips at home and season liberally with Fiesta Fajita seasoning. Place the strips into a zip lock bag and place in the refrigerator. I usually slice a bell pepper, onion, a jalapeno or two and four or five garlic cloves at home and place in a separate bag. At camp, heat a cast iron skillet or wok, cut up five strips of bacon and fry until crisp, add the meat and cook until done, usually about 10 minutes. Add the veggies during the last couple minutes of cooking. Squeeze the juice from a couple lemons just before serving on warm tortillas.
Camp cabbage rolls
This easy-to-prepare dish takes about an hour from start to finish.
Begin with making small meatballs by mixing spicy pork sausage with raw Jasmine rice. Next, in a large pot or Dutch Kettle, pour in a big can of V8 spicy juice. Slice a large head of cabbage into small pieces and layer the cabbage with the meatballs. Add a little more Jasmine rice, season with salt and pepper, cover and cook about 45 minutes until the meatballs are done. Bring along an omelet cooker and make some cornbread over low heat on your cook stove or use a Dutch Kettle with coals to make the cornbread.
This dish is best served on a cool fall or winter outing.
Wild pork tenderloin
I harvest several wild hogs during the course of a year and usually have plenty of pork in the freezer; domestic pork may be substituted.
Begin by trimming the tenderloins well, then make a vertical slice down the center of each loin, about halfway through. Season with sea salt and fresh ground pepper. Place a couple slices of quality, thickly sliced smoked bacon in the slit of each tenderloin. Grill or smoke until well done, then pour a liberal amount of raspberry jelly or preserves over the loins. This sauce gives the meat an excellent sweet/spicy flavor and should be poured onto the loins during the last minute or so of cooking.
If you prefer, instead of cooking the loins whole, slice them into three-quarter inch loin chops and baste with roasted raspberry sauce. I've served this dish many times and it's always well received at camp and home.
Smoked pork or venison ham or shoulder
I use my Smokin' Tex electric smoker often and pack it along on camping trips where electricity is available.
I've found that whole hams from wild hogs or venison make a wonderful camp meal but require overnight cooking.
Begin by rubbing the large cuts of meat liberally with Head Country Championship seasoning. I then inject Head Country Barbecue sauce into the hams, place them on a couple layers of heavy duty aluminum foil and place in the Smokin' Tex with about 4 ounces of pecan or hickory wood. Allow the heavy smoke to permeate the meat for a couple hours, then add more barbecue sauce and cover with bay leaves, wrap tightly in the aluminum foil, set the thermometer at 200 degrees and allow to slow cook overnight. No need to check the hams until morning and cooking time can be anywhere from 12-18 hours.
The even temperature will make the barbecue fall-off-the-bone tender.

Does Evolutionary Psychology Explain Why We Believe in God? Part 1
When we look across times and cultures and find very similar beliefs concerning the nature of physical, biological, and psychological reality, those similarities cry out for some explanation. Since these different individuals have a very diverse range of experience, something other than common experience alone just might account for the similarities of belief. In some cases we can fairly conclude that there is a common nature – some fundamental similarity in how human cognition works – that underlies broadly shared beliefs.
Multiple Lines of Evidence for an Old Universe
Astronomers have many different methods for measuring the age of various objects in the universe, and they all support ages of billions of years, not thousands. Even if the assumptions of one or two methods were faulty, it is highly unlikely that all of the methods would be affected.
Searching for Motivated Belief: Introducing John Polkinghorne
Several times in my series of columns about "Science and the Bible," I briefly discussed a few ideas from John Polkinghorne, one of the leading Christian thinkers of our time. Although I presented him mainly as a representative of the "Theistic Evolution" (TE) view, much of his published work is about other topics, several of them largely or entirely unrelated to TE. It's time we got better acquainted with him.
Series: Shaping the Human Soul
In Washington DC, Church of the Advent teamed up with The Trinity Forum to offer a series of lectures exploring the synergy between modern science and Christian Faith. This presentation by psychiatrist Curt Thompson and philosopher James K.A. Smith addressed the process of Christian discipleship and spiritual formation through the lens of neuroscience.
Series: Recent Discoveries in Astronomy
In this excerpt from the book Delight in Creation: Scientists Share Their Work with the Church, astronomer Deborah Haarsma shares her excitement about recent findings about our universe from a Christian perspective.
Dispatches From the Physicalist Frontier, Part 1
I'm a physicalist when it comes to human persons. I believe, in other words, that we are wholly physical objects. I don't believe there are non-physical souls in the natural world. So I don't believe that we are or have such non-physical souls as parts. I believe we are through-and-through physical.
Rediscovering Human Beings, Part 1
That we are animals is something we hardly needed Darwin to tell us. It is obvious from the fact that, like other animals, we have stomachs and skin, eyeballs and ears, limbs and teeth, muscles, brains, and other organs. Yet it doesn't follow that we are mere animals.
Body and Soul, Mind and Brain: Pressing Questions
"Bit by experimental bit," writes philosopher P. Churchland, "neuroscience is morphing our conception of what we are." For many, this includes dispensing with the "soul" in favor of biologically anchored processes.
What is the Higgs Boson?
At a press conference on July 4, 2012, and with 99.99994% confidence (5 sigma), CERN announced the discovery of a particle consistent with that of a Higgs boson (a.k.a. "the God particle"). This is very exciting for elementary particle physicists. But what is the Higgs particle, and what is its meaning?
Naming 'the God Particle'
The discovery of the Higgs boson would certainly be a breakthrough for particle physics and cosmology, but would such a finding also radically redefine theology's understanding of God or challenge the existence of such a deity? Is there actually any theological or religious significance in Higgs physics at all?
Southern Baptist Voices: A Response to John Hammett, Part 1
The Scriptures teach that we human beings have been created in God's image. What does that mean? I am in substantial agreement with Dr. Hammett on this question.
The Transit of Venus
Today we have a chance to witness a special moment in history as Venus transits across the disk of the Sun for people across the world to see. Not only is this process of discovery exciting for natural science, but it has profound theological ramifications as well.
Fine-tuning and the "Fruitful Universe"
I ask the question, "Why is the universe so special?" Now scientists don't like things to be special; we like things to be general, and our natural anticipation would have been that the universe is just a common specimen of what a universe might be like.
Series: The Wonder of the Universe
BioLogos is pleased to share excerpts from Karl Giberson's book The Wonder of the Universe: Hints of God in a Fine-Tuned World. It presents a two-part argument: in the first section Giberson outlines the history of our understanding of the universe, emphasizing the reliability of our knowledge of its properties and its history. In particular he outlines the remarkable evidence of design. In part two of the book, however, he discusses the complexities of drawing inferences from the design of the universe, cautioning against arguments that fine-tuning of the universe proves the existence of God.
Scientists Tell Their Stories: Owen Gingerich
When it came time to go to graduate school, one of Owen Gingerich's science professors told him "If you feel a calling to go to astronomy, you should give it a try, because we shouldn't let atheists take over any particular field."
Series: Universe and Multiverse
Baylor University Physicist Gerald Cleaver describes the changing state of our understanding of the cosmos and suggests ways that Christians can make theological sense of a theoretical Multiverse.
Series: Science as an Instrument of Worship
In this brief series (taken from a 2009 paper), Jennifer Wiseman uses an excerpt from the famous hymn "How Great Thou Art," to explain why the study of God's creation can lead Christ's followers into meaningful worship and overcome the obstacles which impede true praise. Creation as encountered through our senses is pondered by our minds, which flows into wonder-filled songs from the soul. She further explains how knowledge of creation will help Christians to address the moral dilemmas of science, and she encourages all to see the process of scientific inquiry as a means to discover God's truth.
Series: He Who Has Ears
Scholar and musician Jeff Warren addresses the questions of how music is meaningful, and where that meaning resides, by looking at the popular ideas that musical meaning is entirely subjective to the listener and that the meaning of music can be universal. He also explores the recent trend of attempting to explain music via neuroscience. Finally, he looks into the reasons why music continues to play such a critical role in the worshiping life of the Church.
God's Use of Time
I find that when many Christians think about the way God created our universe, they often bring a static expectation similar to what we bring to an ordinary statue. It's as if we assume the physical realm were merely a rigid three-dimensional sculpture, immovable with time.
Thomas Aquinas: Saint of Evolutionary Psychologists?
Thomas Aquinas (1225-1274) was the foremost Christian scholar of the High Middle Ages and is today regarded as a "doctor" of the Catholic Church. No, Aquinas was not a materialist neuroscientist, but he understood the intimate interdependence of mind and body.

EU Profile of the Israeli trafficker
Oct 01 2010
Download right click "save as"
Numerous individuals are among those who profit from the various forms of prostitution, but over the last few years, traffickers in women are a growing segment of the profiteers from among the abusers. Because of the vast income generated by the sex industry, they are interested in ensuring that it continues to flourish despite the unremitting violations of the human rights of its victims. This study seeks to examine, for the first time, characteristics of traffickers in Israel; to focus on the people greasing the wheels of the sex industry to ensure that it continues unabated.
This paper aims to comprehensive and updated information about traffickers in Israel, while pointing to changes in their identity over the last two decades. This position paper seeks to assist in the formulation of necessary policy both to prevent this crime and to determine a level of punishment that is more stringent than the one common today.

Trader Joe's Cookie Butter Truffles
47 comments :
I will so be making these. I love their cookie butter, but have never actually purchased it. I was afraid I would eat it all myself. Now, I have an excuse. I'll make the truffles and give them away ;-) Thanks for the inspiration.
NiciThe kids love cookie butter, while I prefer the Biscoff spread. This sounds like a great treat!
ReplyDeleteYummy! I am a huge Trader Joe's fan, it is where I buy most of my baking ingredients. I hope they open one near you soon :)
ReplyDeleteI shop at TJ's every week, not to make you jealous, but I have never seen cookie butter. I just mentioned it to my husband, he knew exactly what it was. Hump...how could he not share the fun. Anyway, this looks good and like something I need to try. Thanks for the idea.
ReplyDeleteI, also, happen to LOVE Trader Joe's cookie butter AND cat cookies--and these truffles look amazeballs, Karyn! Thankfully my TJ's isn't as far away as yours--yikes!!--but it's not convenient and in a weird part of town, so sadly I don't go often :( now I have a good reason though!
ReplyDelete- ShannonNovember 8, 2012 at 10:31 PM
Oh lord have mercy! I so love Trader Joe's cookie butter, but would have never given those cat cookies a second look, (I hate cats, silly I know) so thank you, thank you, thank you for sharing this! I don't have a Trader Joe's near my house but there is one about 20 minutes from work, so a trip there is usually a planned event...and the next visit is being planned as I type!
ReplyDelete Had to chuckles as I was reading your post I was thinking that I will have to use biscoff cookies and spread and then find that you said the same thing... Love this recipe and will have to try it.. maybe for the cookie exchange I am doing. Thanks for sharing on Foodie Friends Friday and remember to come back and vote on Sunday
ReplyDeleteI have a small obsession with TJ's Cookie Butter. You should try some on apple slices!! I will have to make these soon!
ReplyDeleteI have a Trader Joe's a few miles away, and I have to force myself not to load up on the cookie butter because it is very dangerous to have around...especially as an empty-nester! It's just me and the hubs and no one to help eat the cookie butter. I didn't know that the cat cookies were the cookie version?!? I have had them quite awhile ago, but will have to pick up some more. So cute how you used them to decorate the truffles:) BTW, World Market is about 45 min. away and they have the Biscoff spread:)
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful pics of Trader Joe's Cookie Butter Truffles you have here.
Perhaps you're interested to submit your food photos on a food photography site that has tagline "Food Photography that will make you hungry" :) http://www.foodporn.net
It's free to submit, free to join, and a lot of members can enjoy your creation!I keep clicking on this picture when I see at at different bloggy parties, because I think you deserve to get "most clicked"

CrystelleI love those cat cookies! I can't believe she doesn't. I cannot buy them - or I will eat them all! LOVE these truffles, so totally pinning. LOVE LOVE LOVE. Um, do I love them? LOL

The 2011 Pam Ward Chronicles Week 5
Pam Ward's run in the chronicles that bear her name is temporarily halted this week as she's away on WNBA duty. That opens the door for Gary Danielson, Matt Millen, and Craig James to catch up in the standings. It should be an awesome day of college football, which follows the Australian Football Grand Final that I'm sure you were all up watching till the wee hours of the morning. Leave us with all the best and most awful quotes you hear throughout this football Saturday and we'll put it to a vote on Monday.
Week 5 Announcing Schedule Week 4 winners and updated standings _________________________________________________"Dave Wannstedt did a great job here at Pittsburgh" - Craig James (via many people). Wanny never reached a BCS bowl and was 42-31 as a coach.
"Bands playing, excitement in the air, that's what happens when conference play comes around." - Rece Davis (via Sctvman)
"I see it on film. Skip Holtz's team is playing better between the lines." - Craig James (via bjo109)... as opposed to playing better out of bounds?
Tino Sunseri has to play with a "fast clock in his head gear tonight." - Jesse Palmer (via sctvman)
"Darrell Scott has a lot to prove and you can hear that proving when his body hits others." - Craig James (via bjo109)
"USF have been lacked with a big physical runner." - Jesse Palmer, you have been lacked with 3rd grade English. (via bjo109)

Stranded Travelers Save Samaritan After Heart Attack
Two women were stranded Saturday night on a Wisconsin highway when a man stopped to change their flat tire. Driving off, the 61-year-old man said, "Someone up above put me in the right place at the right time." Moments later the man had a heart attack. The women spotted his car down the road and they pulled over to assist him.

My new staple
I love this top because of the fit. It's loose fitting but not too much to be baggy. I have recently come to the realization that I've gained weight and I do not feel self conscience in this top. I can wear it to work with a suit jacket or alone with crops on the weekend. Because I love the fit so much I bought the red and blush and will probably go back for the black.
May 22, 2013
Can't go wrong with this one...
Great layering top, true to size and lays nice under a suit coat. As others have mentioned, a staple item for a working woman!
May 3, 2013
A wardrobe staple for a working woman like me. Looks great under a jacket, cardigan or alone and you can wear it with a suit or your jeans. No problem with washing. Bought it in every color.
April 15, 2013
Love it!
Super confortable and chic, looks fab under a jacket or alone , great quality and it washes very nice!!!
April 10, 2013
Love these!
Love these tops! I currently have two, but if The Limited would come out with more, I would absolutely stock up! They tuck in very well to a skirt, and also fit well under a cardigan. Lightweight material but great quality, AND I never have to iron! They do run a little big so size down. For reference, I'm 5'6" 130 lbs 34C and the XS fits well with even a little extra room.
April 10, 2013
Short cap sleeves - great for layering
I have this top in a few different colors and love it! The fit is true to Limited sizing, the quality is great, and after several washes, the top still holds up and keeps its shape. I think this top pears great with skinny jeans!
April 4, 2013
I have two of these tops (peach and oatmeal). Nice light material with good fit.
March 15, 2013
Great for suits
I have this shirt in almost every color. I love wearing them under suits. Great, lightweight top. The only problem I've found is that when I get them in the mail they are folded and I have a hard time getting the wrinkles out. Oh well, I'll deal with that for such a good shirt.

Dr Mubashir Hasan, a peace activist and a former finance minister during Zulfiqar Ali Bhutto's government, called for broader ties between Pakistan and India given their history of confrontation.
The opening of unhindered trade will benefit both India and Pakistan, he said. However, according to Hasan, the absence of trade was not the main reason for the conflict between the two countries.
"When Pakistan came into being in 1947, there was no hindrance to trade. There was no hindrance to free flow of traffic, movement of peoples on both sides. There was no bar on newspapers at that time," he said.
"It was India, which decided to put restrictions on trade and movement of people. Pakistan Railways engines used to move by using coal from India. Lahore used to get electricity from India. We had Indian banks in Lahore. All that was gradually closed by India," he added.
"Distances between the ruling elites of India and Pakistan grew. They refused to resolve the Kashmir dispute and all that led to 1965 war. After which a heavy curtain dropped between India and Pakistan," he added.
Hasan, who is actively engaged in peace process under the banner of Pak-India Peoples Forum for Peace and Democracy (PIPFPD), wished the two governments good-luck as they try to improve relations, but said they need to transform their intentions into actions.
As far as trade is concerned, so far, only agreements have been signed and permission to buy or sell goods from India has yet not been granted, he said. Pakistan has only allowed 1100 rather unimportant items for import from India. It has promised to remove restrictions by December 31, 2012, he added.
"In order to judge the impact of the decision, we have to wait till the end of the year. Only then one would be able to assess the impact of this decision. I am not 100 percent sure that trade would be fully opened by the end of the year."
However, more than trade, it is necessary to build the confidence between two peoples, Hasan said.
"When they are allowed to meet, there would be real basis for better relations. At the moment, the ruling elites of both sides are scared of their peoples. If people are allowed to meet, they will be able to put pressure on the ruling elites that they should abandon their 64 years policy of confrontation," he added.
"Kashmir issue, which is the main hindrance in good relations, will be resolved. Kashmiris' free movement on both sides will be a great step towards better relations and improving trade for mutual economic benefits."

Bacon Cheeseburger Eggrolls....
24 comments:
Such an interesting post to read. Today while strolling at a mall I was fascinated with this cheese top burger
ReplyDeleteI love stuffing egg roll wrappers with anything! Do a Reuben wrap - sliced up corned beef, shredded swiss, and sauerkraut then dip in 1000 island. Or a Philly cheese steak wrap - sliced steak, sauteed onions & peppers, mozzarella cheese. There are more, but you get the idea!
ReplyDeleteCould these be made the night before or would they be gross and rubbery if re-heated the next day?? I was thinking of making them for a potluck at work. Maybe I could brown the hamburger tonight and get up early in the morning to fill/wrap/bake? (Will be using the oven, not deep frying).
ReplyDelete- Replies
It depends on how many you are feeding. I have a family of 4 kids so I tend to brown quite a bit of ground beef. I would say 2 lbs of ground beef would make about 6-10 eggrolls depending on how you fill them. This is one of those recipes where it just depends on how many you want to make. The eggroll wrappers come in a pack of quite alot of wrappers, I believe mine is 50. So if you use a little ground beef, you can always wrap the wrappers up in a ziploc bag to use for later.

The Pentagon will start sending furlough notices to employees starting Friday, a senior defense official said Tuesday.
It will force workers to stay at home on unpaid leave for 22 days, or one day each week, starting April 21 through Sept. 21. It means a 20% pay cut for five months for most of the 800,000 civilian employees working for Defense. Officials on Tuesday couldn't say exactly how many notices are going out.
It would be the first time that defense employees receive direct notices about their furloughs, which are being triggered by forced spending cuts that hit the federal government on March 1. Earlier this month, some unions representing defense workers received notices with furlough details.
It will upend the lives of many employees, who will have to give up flexible work schedules during the furlough period, besides taking a pay cut.
In a Senate hearing Tuesday, NATO's top military commander Navy Admiral James G. Stavridis, told lawmakers he's worried about retaining his civilian workforce.
"We have these marvelous civilians who do extraordinary work, stand with us every single day, and yet they're facing the possibility for furloughs and 20% pay cut," Stavridis said. "Even on the family side, the impact on our children facing school day cuts and furloughs of their teachers is significant and part of this whole challenge for us."
Defense is part of the nation's 2.1 million civilian federal workforce facing furloughs, thanks to $85 billion in spending reductions that went into effect. They're part of a larger effort to trim $1.2 trillion from federal deficits over 10 years.
At least two dozen federal agencies, including the the Department of Labor, Environmental Protection Agency, the Federal Aviation Administration and the Federal Bureau of Investigations, have already issued furlough notices.
Even the White House's budget office is not immune. Some 500 Office of Management and Budget employees have received furlough notices requiring up to 10 unpaid days off, between April 21 and Sept. 7, 2013, an OMB official confirmed.
The length of furloughs varies among agencies. Employees who work for the Federal Employee Workers Compensation Program will face no more than 3 days of furloughs.
