Tomato and Watermelon Salad

- The Cooking Loft
When it comes time for summer, I can't resist making a salad bursting with ingredients from the local markets. For best results, make the[ salad without ever refrigerating the tomatoes but with the watermelon cold from the refrigerator. The contrast of temperatures will give the salad an extra fresh taste.]
- 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
- 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
- 1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil
- 2 beefsteak (or other large variety) tomatoes, stemmed, washed and dried
- 1 pint cherry tomatoes, stemmed, washed and dried
- 1 tablespoon chopped tarragon leaves
- 4 strawberries, hulled, washed and cut into very small pieces
- Maldon sea salt
- Freshly ground black pepper
- 1 to 2 teaspoons superfine (or granulated) sugar
- 6 ounces cold watermelon, rind removed, seeded and cut into bite-size cubes
In a bowl, whisk together the balsamic, lemon juice, and olive oil. Taste for seasoning. Set aside.
Place the tomatoes on a flat surface. Cut the smaller ones in half and the larger ones into slices. Arrange all of them in a single layer, flesh side up. Season them with salt, black pepper and sugar. Drizzle the tomatoes with the dressing. Toss them with the tarragon and strawberries.
Arrange the tomatoes down the length of 6 rectangular plates. Drizzle with the remaining dressing and top with the watermelon. Serve immediately.

DEC stresses access to former Finch lands
The state Department of Environmental Conservation has assembled its draft classification proposals for much of the 69,000 acres of former Finch, Pruyn and Co. timberlands the state plans to acquire and add to the Adirondack Forest Preserve over the next four years.
Among its recommendations is a plan to turn most of the Essex Chain of Lakes tract in Minerva and Newcomb, which the state acquired in December, into a canoe recreation area.
DEC would also open up part of the Essex Chain tract and other portions of the Finch lands to motor vehicles and floatplanes, a move that's drawing praise from local government leaders but criticism from environmentalists.
"If there's to be any benefit to the nearby communities, it needs to be accessible to a wide range of users," said Fred Monroe, executive director of the Adirondack Park Local Government Review Board.
"In general, we're troubled by the amount of commercial access the governor seems to be trying to accommodate," said Adirondack Council spokesman John Sheehan.
The classification proposals for the Finch acquisition are outlined in a confidential internal memo sent by DEC Commissioner Joe Martens to state Adirondack Park Agency Chairwoman Lani Ulrich on Dec. 31. The Enterprise obtained a copy of the memo from Adirondack Explorer Editor Phil Brown, who first wrote about the proposals last week in a post on the Adirondack Almanack website.
Martens, in a cover letter to Ulrich, said public access to the Finch lands, which have been off limits to the public for 150 years, is a priority for DEC. The commissioner said the proposal represents a "balanced approach" that provides a range of recreational uses to the public.
Essex Chain
The Essex Chain Canoe Recreation Area would include roughly 13,000 acres of the 18,000-acre Essex Chain tract and portions of the adjacent Blue Mountain Wild Forest to the west. It would be designated as wild forest and would include opportunities for paddling, fishing, hunting, trapping, hiking, mountain biking, cross-country skiing and snowshoeing.
DEC's recreation plan would let cars and trucks drive to Deer Pond, where a canoe launch, parking area and primitive tent sites accessible to people with disabilities would be built. Another disabled-access launch site would be developed between Fourth and Fifth lakes, and a public portage would extend from Deer Pond to Third Lake, the largest water body in the Essex Chain. Vehicle access from the east would also be allowed.
Floatplane access would continue on First and Pine lakes, as well as to Third Lake in the early spring and late fall under a permit system. DEC has also proposed allowing some roadside camping in the tract during the fall hunting season.
A section of the Essex Chain tract, primarily along a 10-mile stretch of the Hudson River on the parcel's eastern side, would become part of a new wilderness area. The Hudson River Gorge Wilderness would also encompass what is now the Hudson River Gorge Primitive Area, OK Slip Falls, which is one of the state's highest waterfalls, the Blue Ledges and sections of the Indian River parcel, which will provide a key takeout point for paddlers at the confluence of the Indian and Hudson rivers.
"This will be an incredible draw for visitors seeking this unique and limited wild rivers experience, bringing people to the communities of Indian Lake, Blue Mountain Lake, Long Lake, Newcomb and Minerva to seek accommodations and supplies," the DEC memo states.
Boreas Ponds
The 22,000-acre Boreas Ponds tract would be divided into two parcels: Boreas Ponds North and Boreas Ponds South, one classified as wilderness and the other as wild forest, which has fewer restrictions.
The southern parcel would be added to the Vanderwhacker Wild Forest. Its recreational amenities would include a parking area and trailhead access to Boreas Mountain, access to Ragged Mountain Club Road for hunting, and seasonal access to 5 miles of Gulf Brook Road, which would provide access to the Boreas River and Boreas Ponds for paddling, fishing and camping. DEC also would allow seasonal hunting and trapping, and roadside camping, along potions of Gulf Brook Road. Boreas Ponds South would also include a snowmobile connector trail that would link Minerva and Newcomb to North Hudson and Schroon Lake.
Boreas Ponds North would be added to the High Peaks Wilderness Area, becoming what DEC calls "the southern gateway to the High Peaks region." It would provide opportunities for remote, backcountry hiking and camping with access to the Colvin Range, the Dix Range, Mount Marcy and the Great Range. DEC is proposing an intricate trail system using an existing network of logging roads on the property. There would also be opportunities in and around Boreas Ponds for paddling, all-season camping at designated primitive tent sites, fishing, cross-country skiing, snowshoeing and ice fishing.
McIntyre tract
The 12,000-acre McIntyre Works tract near Newcomb would be divided into three parcels. A southern tract would be added to the Vanderwhacker Wild Forest. DEC would provide motor vehicle access to the Hudson and Opalescent rivers for paddling and fishing. Parking areas for launching of canoes and kayaks would be created so the public could access Sanford Lake and the Hudson and Opalescent. Primitive tent sites would be designated along some of the old roads and trails in the area.
Lands in the McIntyre Works tract to the east and west would become part of the High Peaks Wilderness. DEC plans to re-establish a trail along Santanoni Brook to give the public new access to Santanoni and Panther mountains, create hiking access from Newcomb Lake to Lake Andrew for camping and fishing, restore historic access to Mount Allen in the High Peaks Wilderness and allow camping at primitive tent sites throughout the area year-round.
Several other smaller parcels in the southern Adirondacks are also referenced in the classification proposal.
Monroe said DEC's proposals were discussed at a review board meeting Wednesday in Keene Valley.
"I was pleased to see there is a considerable amount of access because that's critically important to tie in this property to the community," Monroe said.
Monroe has closely followed the planning process for the Essex Chain parcel, as he's a member of the Polaris Club, one of two hunting clubs whose decades-long exclusive leases to the property will run out later this year. He praised DEC's plan to maintain some road access to the Essex Chain, to put in takeouts for canoers and kayakers and to create access for people with disabilities. He also liked the idea of providing floatplane access to Third Lake in the early spring and late fall, as the timing would prevent conflicts with paddlers who are more likely to access the Essex Chain in the summer and early fall.
At Boreas Ponds, Monroe said sportsmen's groups he's talked to think DEC should have allowed road access to continue into the parcel beyond just the first 5 miles of Gulf Brook Road, "but you have to weigh that against the possibility that the easier you make it to access, the more likely it is to get trashed with invasives."
Sheehan, whose group wants the Essex Chain tract to be wilderness, said bringing large numbers of people to the interior of the property will degrade its "sensitive resources." Providing recreational access to such areas is supposed to be a secondary concern to protecting its resources, Sheehan said, citing the Adirondack Park State Land Master Plan.
"We enjoy outdoor recreation as much as anybody, but we want to make sure that motorized access occurs in appropriate areas, not the Park's most sensitive landscapes," he said. "This is the most sensitive parcel of land the state has purchased for the Forest Preserve in about 100 years."
Sheehan said he's concerned about potential impacts to the Essex Chain's fisheries by overuse, and the potential introduction of invasive species.
At Boreas Ponds, Sheehan said the wilderness border should be farther south and that the snowmobile connector should follow a power line. He also said providing direct public access to the Boreas River could lead it to be quickly overwhelmed by people and invasive species.
"DEC should be providing natural-resource-sciences-based explanations for why they're doing what they're doing," Sheehan said, "but in nearly every case we have instead a commercial or recreational answer to the question, and that is troubling overall."
Next step
APA spokesman Keith McKeever said the draft classification recommendations for the Essex Chain and Indian River tracts will be presented to the APA board in early spring. A series of public hearings will be held before the board makes a reccomendation to the governor.

Comprehensive DescriptionRead full entry
Scaridae: The ParrotfishesParrotfishes are abundant on coral reefs, where they often are the largest component of the fish biomass. They are generally small to medium-sized herbivorous fishes. Depth distribution is primarily 1-30m, with some species occurring down to 80m. Adult scarids are grazing animals, feeding on the close-cropped algal and bacterial mat covering dead corals and rocks, seagrasses, and by crushing bits of coral that may contain invertebrate prey. Juveniles feed on small invertebrates. Parrotfishes feed continuously during the day, often in mixed schools, biting at rocks and corals. They usually scrape some of the coral or ingest sand while feeding and grind this in their pharyngeal mill with the plant food. In pulverizing the coral rock fragments and sand they create substantial quantities of sediment. In many areas they are probably the principal producers of sand. Two types of spawning behaviour have been observed for some scarids. Spawning may take place in an aggregation of initial-phase fish; individual groups of fish dart upward from the aggregation, releasing eggs and sperm at the peak of these upward dashes. The second pattern of reproduction consists of pair-spawning; a terminal male defends a territory from other males, courts females within his territory, and spawns individually with them. At night, some species of Scarus are capable of secreting an enveloping cocoon of mucus in which the fish sleeps until daylight.

Kessy, Ross to Play China for Gold in Phuket

E-Mail: email@example.com
COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. (Nov. 5, 2011) – The second-seeded U.S. women's beach volleyball team of Jen Kessy and April Ross will play China's top-ranked Chen Xue and Xi Zhang for the gold medal on Sunday at the Phuket Thailand Open, the final event of the 2011 FIVB Swatch World Tour.
Kessy (San Juan Capistrano, Calif.) and Ross (Costa Mesa, Calif.) defeated Italy's fifth-seeded Marta Menegatti and Greta Cicolari, 21-18, 21-19 in 44 minutes in Saturday's semifinal.
After finessing their way through a tight first set, Kessy and Ross came back from a 12-16 deficit in the second set to defeat the Italy's tenacious Cicolari and Menegatti.
"The Italians played well, we just came up with key plays at the right time that sends us to the gold medal match again here in Phuket," Kessy said in an FIVB press release. "They played better in the second set and after we got done by four points late in the set, we didn't panic and both of us were able to make the kind of plays we are capable of, especially with our transition setting. We knew it would be a battle and it was and they are a team getting better and better but we used our strengths today to defeat them."
In the first semifinal, China's Xue and Zhang overcame a knee injury to Zhang early in the second set to win fifth straight match in two sets in Phuket, defeating Australia's 19th-seeded Louise Bawden and Becchara Palmer, 21-18, 21-13 in 43 minutes.
After controlling the first set, the score was tied 1-1 in the second set when Zhang went down hard on the Karon Beach sand, injuring her left knee. After on-site medical personnel treated her, LZhang, playing in obvious pain with a taped left knee, pulled away to earn their 20th FIVB Swatch World Tour gold medal match appearance.
The 11th-seeded U.S. team of Lauren Fendrick (Carlsbad, Calif.) and Brooke Hanson (Woodland Hills, Calif.) finished the tournament tied for fifth on Saturday after falling to Bawden and Palmer in consolation, 23-21, 18-21, 15-12 in 1 hour and 5 minutes.
Fendrick and Hanson opened play on Saturday with a 21-19, 21-15 victory in 37 minutes over Canada's 17th-seeded Heather Bansley and Elizabeth Maloney. Fendrick and Hanson will share a prize of $9,100 for their efforts.
Kessy and Ross now have a 7-1 series edge in matches against Cicolari and Menegatti, avenging their first loss to the Italians suffered in Klagenfurt, Austria in August.
Kessy and Ross have reached their 30th final four in 61 FIVB Swatch World Tour events as a team and Sunday will be their 19th appearance in a gold medal match where they have a 9-9 career record.
Kessy and Ross have won 26 medals in the five seasons they have played together. In the gold medal matchup, which will be a battle of two former Phuket champions, Xue and Zhang hold a 6-2 series edge over the Americans, although Kessy and Ross won their last meeting in two sets in June at the Beijing Grand Slam.
The winning pair will share a $30,000 first prize while the silver-medal team will split $21,000.

IAJE Evening 1 - New York Voices and Pac-Man

Posted by Joshua Jackson.Add new comment | Filed under: brazilian dreams, chicago winter, claudio roditi, craftsman, crowd, gala concert, greatest fan, harmony sound, iaje, IAJE 2008, institutions, jazz, john coltrane, Live Music, new york voices, pac man, paquito d rivera, rendition, snow samba, trumpeter, vocal harmony
I'm not the greatest fan of New York Voices, because I can't get beyond that vocal harmony sound. The rest of the planet loves it. I don't. But I absolutely respect what they do. Because they do it so well. You can always find New York Voices performing at one of the country's venerable jazz institutions, Pittsburgh's Manchester Craftsman's Guild. Their latest CD, A Day Like This, is Grammy-nominated. And they are a crowd favorite at IAJE. They're also first-rate educators, and members of IAJE.
Shows you how much I know...
New York Voices played to a packed house for the IAJE Gala concert. Among the highlights was a vocalese rendition of John Coltrane's "A Moment's Notice." They call it "Noticing The Moment." Listen for yourself:
New York Voices - Noticing The Moment (A Moment's Notice)
In the middle of the set, they invited one of the IAJE Gala honorees, Paquito D'Rivera, for a couple of songs from a previous album, Brazilian Dreams. After Pac-man told a story about how he and trumpeter Claudio Roditi wrote "Snow Samba" during a Chicago winter, they launched into it.

If you want more of that, the New York Voices and Paquito D'Rivera are playing the Blue Note in New York on Monday night. - Josh

Comment 1
A few weeks ago I posted about a new documentary coming out called the Influencers. Well, the producers have decided to release the film online, which means, lucky you can just click play above for some instant gratification. And I have to warn you. It's good.. inspiring and yes a must see if you my friend are thinking of driving your stake in the ground and transforming yourself into a "G" Influencer! After watching the film, checkout their awesome site: influencersfilm.com
Here is part of my previous post just to bring you up to speed: This trailer for the documentary Influencers caught my eye this morning and sent my brain racing. Why you ask? Well, to be frank, I am in the middle of re-thinking G Living in the Post Green Special Status World. Yes, green as a special issue is dead in my opinion. I still believe the world will keep moving towards a "G" lifestyle, but the original movements concept of just adding the word Green, or Organic to your products name or onto your website some how made it exciting… is oh so dead my friends. Dead Dead Dead! Don't be grim, that is a good thing. It had to happen. You are ask why again aren't you? Because it's been over used, over hyped and under delivered. Yelling global warming from the roof tops and then not demanding real change is an issue.

To the editor:
Why have the leaders of the political left adopted the cause of homosexuals as their own?
What they want, above all, is to expand the power and influence of the intellectual elite over the average American. They know that they cannot do this unless they attack and break down the moral authority and influence of the traditional family and the church. By supporting homosexual "marriage," they attack both family and church.
What will happen when gay marriage is adopted? Will the attack on family and church end there? By no means! The next steps will be forced indoctrination of children against the wishes of their parents and limitations on the freedom of churches and individuals to speak and live according to the dictates of their consciences.
This is only the beginning.

Today, President Obama announced United We Serve – a call to action for all Americans to volunteer this summer.
This summer, President Obama is calling on all of us – young and old, from every background, all across this country – to participate in our nation's recovery and renewal by serving in our communities. From June 22 to September 11, United We Serve will begin to engage Americans from coast to coast in addressing community needs in education, health, energy and the environment, and community renewal. Serve.gov is your online resource for not only finding volunteer opportunities in your community, but also creating your own.
On the White House Blog, Cammie Croft provides more information:
"Since his Inauguration, the President has called on all Americans to serve our communities and be a part of building a better future for our country. And given this unique moment in our history with the unprecedented challenges we are facing, there isn't a more important time than now for us to get involved.
That is why today the President is announcing United We Serve – a call to action for all Americans to volunteer this summer and be part of building a new foundation for America, one community at a time.
We know that ordinary people can accomplish extraordinary things when empowered with the proper tools. The Corporation for National Service, the federal agency dedicated to fostering service in communities across the country, is providing those tools on their website, Serve.gov. They make it easy to not only find volunteer opportunities in our neighborhoods, but also to create and promote our own projects. It's time to roll-up our sleeves and get to work."
View the President's announcement and get started at Serve.gov.
Syrian Nationalist Party writes:
Considering the profiling, email and telephone interception, few other hallmarks of recently enacted examples of citizen benefits. Not sure why any Middle Easterner, Indian, Pakistani etc. would want to be part of this Government is broke so help yourselves drive. It is labeled SERVE instead of WORK FOR FREE. For many in America it is more like, work a third job for free.
Joe in Tennessee writes:
Not to be reticent; but, GW asked the same of everyone from the beginning of his administration. He all but begged for any and all societies, groups, individuals and religious affiliations to do more. While he felt a lot of the weight put on the government could be and should be handled better on local private levels, it is the same message.
I think what has happened, which can be viewed as the gentleman from Syria's remark: What the government of America gives IS FROM THE PEOPLE of the United States of America and not separate from the people and is addressing the internal problems addressing us now. Many do agree that you must feed your family first; we still have an abundance which feeds close to two thirds of the world and has for some decades now. Other Governments have backed down, such as Italy and Germany lately on what they provide using his theology...But that is the difference of the United States and other countries regarding democracy...we are not provisional externally or internally.
Today, we are addressing health care for all Americans. While it may be over a decade after the problem was shown by Mrs. Clinton, it has now raised its head and we will overcome the problem.
The reality of a new economic from of fiscal responsibility is being developed and with a view not only to Americas interest, but worldwide. The United States is addressing the short comings of the use of money as the tool for which it was meant to be used in a democracy. The only opponent to our governmental realities is greed and not fiscal responsibility for which money is the social developmental tool to sturcture society. From individual growth to corporate development without monopolistic control or adverse effects on the Treasury of the United States, we are addressing these problems and will solve them.
A lot has come upon the people of the United States of America at one time and we have always been there for everyone else, now the President is simply asking that we be there for each other as well...why make something so simple sound so poor?
Perhaps we should have never taken God out of things to the extent we have, after all, that is what is on the back of the dollar bill: In God we Trust, now look at us.
Tyler in Washington writes:
Best wishes and prayers for a swift recovery from her elbow injury for Secretary Clinton.

#MyJihad is CAIR's jihad. via Bond Denied for Ala. Native Plotting Violent Jihad.
MOBILE, Ala. (AP) — A federal judge has denied bond for a Mobile, Ala., native charged with plotting to join violent international jihad.
The judge agreed with FBI investigators who said Randy Lamar "Rasheed" Wilson, 25, was a danger to the community and should remain in jail.
Wilson was arrested boarding an international flight from Atlanta to Morocco earlier this month. Investigators say he planned to enter another African country and wage a violent jihad in support of his Muslim beliefs.
Wilson's attorney argued unsuccessfully that Wilson did not have a concrete plan and that his intent was not violent.

I just got an answer from Eddy concerning the sale of the Eldor, he is just waiting the good offer:
"Hi Johnny,
I'm sorry it's taken so long to get back to you. I've been super busy and still not getting enough done.
The only 2 things I can say about the figure's price or value is difficult to establish:
1) I spoke to the Marketing Manager, Scott Neitich in charge of Mattel's current HeMan line and he told me that Mattel does not own one single copy or test shot of Eldor at all.
2) According to Martin Arriola Who was lead designer at Mattel for HeMan in the 1980's,One Eldor Test Shot was sold this year for more than a brand new car.
A serious offer needs to be made to me so I can really reply to the question.
I'm sorry if it's not enough of an answer.
'Take Care,
By the way, an other Eldor Test Shot has been sold this year, wow!
Any idea of what the first one sold for?

Nope, but I am thinking around $15.000/20.000
Eldor is pretty rad. Lucky dude to get to hold that piece of history!

The trustees are required to maintain adequate accounting records and are responsible for the content and integrity of the annual financial statements and related financial information included in this report. It is their responsiblity to ensure that the annual financial statements fairly present the state of affairs of the fund as at the end of the financial year and the results of its operations and cash flows for the period then ended, in conformity with the accounting policies of the fund. The external auditor is engaged to express an independent opinion on the annual financial statements.
The annual financial statements are prepared in accordance with the accounting policies of the fund and are based upon appropriate accounting policies consistently applied and supported by reasonable and prudent judgements and estimates.
The trustees acknowledge that they are ultimately responsible for the system of internal financial control established by the fund and place considerable importance on maintaining a strong control environment. To enable the trustees to meet these responsibilities, the trustees set standards for internal control aimed at reducing the risk of error or loss in a cost-effective manner. The standards include the proper delegation of responsibilities within a clearly defined framework, effective accounting procedures, and adequate segregation of duties to ensure an acceptable level of risk. These controls are monitored throughout the fund and all employees are required to maintain the highest ethical standards in ensuring the fund's business is conducted in a manner that in all reasonable circumstances is above reproach. The focus of risk management in the fund is on identifying, assessing, managing, and monitoring all known forms of risk across the fund. While operating risk cannot be fully eliminated, the fund endeavours to minimize it by ensuring that appropriate infrastructure, controls, systems, and ethical behaviour are applied and managed within predetermined procedures and constraints.
The trustees are of the opinion that the system of internal control provides reasonable assurance that the financial records may be relied on for the preparation of the annual financial statements. However, any system of internal financial control can provide only reasonable, and not absolute, assurance against material misstatement or loss.
The external auditor is responsible for independently reviewing and reporting on the Institute's annual financial statements. The annual financial statements have been examined by the Institute's external auditor and his report is presented on page 840.
The annual financial statements set out on pages 841-844, which have been prepared on the going concern basis, were approved by the trustees on 16 August 2012 and were signed on their behalf by:

Audit Report
To the members of The SAIMM Scholarship Fund
I have audited the annual financial statements of The SAIMM Scholarship Fund which comprise the statement of financial position as at 30 June 2012, the statement of comprehensive income, statement of changes in reserves and statement of cash flows for the year then ended, and a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory notes, and the trustees' report, as set out on pages 841 to 844.
Trustees' responsibility for the annual financial statements
The fund's trustees are responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these annual financial statements in accordance with the accounting policies of the fund, and for such internal control as the trustees determine is necessary to enable the preparation of annual financial statements that are free from material misstatements, whether due to fraud or error.
Auditor's responsibility
My responsibility is to express an opinion on these annual financial statements based on my audit. I conducted my audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing. Those standards require that I comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance whether the annual financial statements are free of material misstatement.
An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the annual financial statements. The procedures selected depend upon the auditor's judgement, including the assessment of the risk of material misstatement of the annual financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the fund's preparation and fair presentation of the annual financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the fund's internal control. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the annual financial statements.
I believe that the audit evidence I have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for my audit opinion.
In my opinion, the annual financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the fund as at 30 June 2012 and its financial performance and its cash flows for the year then ended in accordance with the accounting policies of the fund.
Supplementary information
Without qualifying my opinion, I draw attention to the fact that supplementary information set out on page 844 does not form part of the financial statements and is presented as additional information. I have not audited this information and accordingly do not express an opinion on it.

Food ban to hit Europe harder
U.S. agriculture sales to Russia were $1.3 billion in 2013
MOSCOW — Russia banned most food imports from the West on Thursday in retaliation for sanctions over Ukraine, an unexpectedly sweeping move that will cost farmers in North America, Europe and Australia billions of dollars. It will also likely lead to empty shelves in Russian cities.
The announcement shows that while President Vladimir Putin doesn't appear ready to heed Russian nationalists' calls to send troops into Ukraine, he is prepared to inflict significant damage in an economic war with the West.
The ban, announced by Russian Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev at a televised Cabinet meeting, covers all imports of meat, fish, fruit, vegetables, milk and milk products from the U.S., the European Union, Australia, Canada and Norway. It will last for one year.
"Until the last moment, we hoped that our foreign colleagues would understand that sanctions lead to a deadlock and no one needs them," Medvedev said. "But they didn't, and the situation now requires us to take retaliatory measures."
That retaliation could hurt Russia as much as the West. Russia depends heavily on imported foodstuffs, most of it from Europe. In 2013, the EU exported $15.8 billion in agricultural goods to Russia, while the U.S. sent $1.3 billion in food and agricultural goods.
Albert Jan Maat, chairman of the Dutch Federation of Agriculture and Horticulture, warned that the Russian ban will cause prices to drop across Europe because of oversupply, and called on the Dutch government and the EU to help farmers. Exports to Russia account for about a tenth of EU agricultural exports.
"We're thinking of either removing products from the market or temporarily storing them," he said.
EU Commission spokesman Frederic Vincent voiced regret about the ban. He said the Commission still has to assess the potential impact, and reserves "the right to take action as appropriate."
Medvedev argued that the ban would give Russian farmers, who have struggled to compete with Western products, a good chance to increase their market share. But experts said local producers will find it hard to fill the gap left by the ban, as the nation's agricultural sector suffers from inefficiency and a shortage of funds.
Agriculture Minister Nikolai Fyodorov said the sector would need additional subsidies equivalent to $3.8 billion in the next few years to pump up production. The government may find it hard to increase funding as it tries to shore up the currency and support banks and companies affected by Western sanctions, which included an EU ban on long-term borrowing for key Russian state banks.
While the Russian government claimed it will move quickly to replace Western imports with food from Latin America, Turkey and ex-Soviet neighbors, analysts predicted shortages and price hikes. The damage to consumers will be particularly great in big cities like Moscow, where imported food fills an estimated 60 percent to 70 percent of the market.

Ghee Clarified Butter
Posted by KiMaLi on Apr 26, 2013
Ghee is typically used in India. I started using Ghee a couple of years ago to help prevent tooth decay. 1/4 teaspoon of Ghee with 1/4 teaspoon of high quality Cod Liver Oil three times per day will help alleviate tooth decay. I avoided a root canal as a result of following this recipe. Plus my sensitive teeth issues have pretty much been eliminated altogether. I do find Ghee to be kind of greasy and it sort of has a funny taste to it, so to alleviate these issues I just put it in a smoothie. Then you don't really taste either of them. It has had amazing results for me. I have found that IHerb has a very reasonable price on Ghee 4 - 5 dollars cheaper than what I was paying for it locally. So now I'm purchasing it through IHerb. I'm sure Ghee has many other useful purposes as well. If you found this review to be helpful please click the yes button. Remeber to check out the daily and weekly specials for more terrific savings. Have a good day.
Extremely high quality ghee but...
Posted by Reviewer1273925 on Jul 26, 2011
This is a truly great quality ghee product, very very hard to surpass this kind of quality. Basically no water in it, a great yellow golden color and the flavor is great, thanks to organic grass fed cows. Very happy that iherb is now carrying this product, wanted to try this brand of ghee for years, just ordered my 2nd bottle. Review update: I have reduced my rating for this product, since I found that it does not store well at room temperature after opening. I dont understand this, the cooking test revealed no water, the only explanation would be there is some slight mild solids residue from incomplete processing, so my my recommendation is to store it in the fridge after opening. Will contact the manufacturer for an explanation.
Very good quality, yummy and healthy!

Great product, very happy you have it. I made my own ghee before, a lot of work and twice as expencive. Will buy this product from now on.
I'll give it 5 stars although I don't like the taste
Posted by marley on Feb 20, 2011
I read that this is also great as a moisturizer and for acne,stomach aches,burns etc..
I didn't like it. But I can see why others do.
Posted by Reviewer1072897 on Jan 03, 2013
This butter is definitely a matter of taste. While I can see why somebody will love it, I myself just can't... I've tried, but to me it strongly resembles some kind of brown cheese which I just can't stand. :/ On a positive note, I do use it alot in cooking. It works great there and I doesn't particulary notice the taste. It's just butterish. Also; it is organic! I'm really really happy that the variety of organic products is widening and is available for international customers. Especially one like this. :D
About the shipping weight
Posted by Reviewer3063157 on Nov 03, 2013
This review is merely about iherb n not the product. The shipping weight for the same product in amazon is 1.8llbs but iherb says it's 2.6 Actually it's not only this product, lots of other products are the same. I sent email asking them why, of course they didn't reply!
Posted by Reviewer1639408 on Jul 08, 2012
But not as good as Pure Indian Foods brand which is more yellow and flavourful. However, I can't afford the $30 shipping with them. Very glad iherb carries a comparable product for a great shipping rate that usually comes like a bullet across the Canadian border the very next day. Thanks also for the free sampes of Cococeps.

Here's how RW members rated this race (23 votes).
In short: Challenging cross country race, bit muddy, steep woodland parts, a good test. Marshalls were lovely and encouraging.Date of review: November 19, 2012
In short: Fun for all the famillyIn full: Nice testing terrain, the sports village was inspiring (and inspired my kids too which was good), the 5k and kids race option are very much appreciated.Signage on arrival by car could be better, but thats a really minor niggle. Lovely day.Date of review: February 26, 2012
In short: GloriousIn full: I know its unseasonally mild but what a great little race. Mud (tho not as much as you might expect in Feb), climbs, roots, rocks and a surprising amount of (family). great location and know real problems. One to mark on your calenders guysDate of review: February 26, 2012
In short: Muddy and challengingIn full: Bit mystified by the comment complaining about mud as the organisers positively crow about it.A fun route that was a little crowded at the start and tricky to overtake in parts of the woods. Definitely not a PB race.Date of review: January 29, 2012
In short: Disgraceful!In full: In my opinion this "race" should have been cancelled due to the extreme, muddy and at times very dangerous conditions. This race was completely mis-represented on the organisers website and I strongly advise that you don't compete in this if this is your first 10km race ever or if you are using this race as part of your half/marathan training plan. The mars bar received at the end didn't make up for this poor, poor race. Finally, signs should have been put up on the campus to help direct people to the correct area.Date of review: January 29, 2012
In short: im trying to work out if this is the best race ive ever done or the worseIn full: im trying to work out if this is the best race ive ever done or the worse the route was over very boggy ground , razor sharp rocks and brambles across the path(sacerteurs the night before would of been good marshalls) the fences styles and single paths meant you could only go as fast as the man infront, but it worked- we knew it was winter , the conditions would be cold and damp people were very upbeat about the course the goody bag was ok a shopping bag and choccie bar see you next yearDate of review: January 29, 2012

Lavalier System
Omnidirectional condenser. Nady DKW-2 is the perfect entry level professional wireless. Delivering clear, transparent, high-fidelity audio, the DKW Series systems can be used for a broad range of singing and speaking applications. Although offered at a breakthrough new low price for a professional wireless, the DKW Series is loaded with features.Frequency Selection and Multiple System Use
A word of caution! Quite often, wireless Mic Systems (and wireless guitar/bass systems) operate on the same frequencies as TV channels. In general, VHF systems work on TV channels 2 - 13, and UHF systems on TV channels 14 - 69. So, when ordering a wireless mic, make sure you check the channel against your location to ensure your wireless mic systems avoid interference with local TV channels.
Wireless Mic Systems send out a radio signal which is picked up by the receiver. Each wireless system transmits this radio signal on a unique frequency or channel, and this is an important issue to consider when purchasing wireless systems. Using multiple wireless systems together requires that careful attention be paid to frequency or channel selection. Multiple people in the same band/group cannot use the same frequency/channel. As the number of wireless systems used in your performance increases, the transmitted signals interact with each other to create "intermodulation distortion" or intermod for short. If careful attention is not paid to channel selection, this intermod becomes a sort of interference which may cause wireless mic systems that work fine individually, to not work when used all at once. The key is to keep careful track of your operating frequencies to ensure they are all compatible.

Comments about Nady Dkw-1 Lavalier Wireless System:
Bought 3 of these to mic up a bride, groom and JP at a wedding. Had no other pending need for Lavalier mic's so, I went cheap. They worked. They're not pretty and they seem like they'd break pretty easily, but, if you are only going to use them rarely, probably a safe bet to get you thorough a handful of gigs.

I bougth a Shure wireless w/lapel for $300 and it isn't as good as this one. Worth every penny.
Comments about Nady Dkw-1 Lavalier Wireless System:
Still working after 3 years. I usually use at about 50 feet away and not many problems cutting out.
I've had mine for 3 years and it still works great. I recently bought a Shure wireless with lapel and the sound doesn't pick up as good as this one does. Mic is sensitive but doesn't feedback. So this is my first one I use and have the Shure as the backup.
Comments about Nady Dkw-1 Lavalier Wireless System:
Didn't work right out of the box. Flimsy plastic case - generally shoddy work - couldn't turn the gain screw - just feels cheap. Microphone has clip attached permanently (molded plastic) on wrong side for men's shirts - should have been reversible. Would never buy again.
Comments about Nady Dkw-1 Lavalier Wireless System:
I've done pro sound for 15 years and when I did a job for a church group who bought these mics because of the low price, they got exactly what they paid for. The mics all made a buzzing and popping noise. They would cut in and out. And now matter how much adjusting I did on the squelch and gain, nothing helped. Their show sucked because of these mics. Save your money and buy at least an Audio-Technica ATW251 or better.

ACLU files civil suit against Gaylord Police, others
GAYLORD – The American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) of Minnesota announced Tuesday it filed a 12-count lawsuit in Federal District Court against Gaylord Police, the Sibley County Sheriff's Office, and Arlington Police for constitutional rights violations of a Gaylord woman.
The civil suit claims Jesus Mendoza Sierra's fourth, fifth and 14th amendment rights were violated when officers and deputies arrested, detained and interrogated her on March 9, 2012, after the driver of the car she was in, was arrested.
According to an ACLU news release, law enforcement officials assumed that because Mendoza Sierra was Hispanic and that she was illegally in the United States. Despite being told she had valid Minnesota identification and no warrants, officers brought her to the police department, detained and interrogated her, then went to her residence and looked at her immigration documents, before police drove her to work, according to the news release.
The complaint claims unjustified search and seizure and that the defendants lacked probable cause, targeting Mendoza Sierra due to her color, ethnicity and national origin.
Mendoza Sierra is a lawful, permanent U.S. resident who immigrated to Minnesota in May 2009. She lives in Gaylord and works at the Michael Foods, Inc. egg processing plant, according to court documents.
She was a passenger in a car driven by her daughter, Luz Maria Cisneros Mendoza, who was suspected by police of using a false name, Ruth Rendon, to open a bank account at First National Bank, Gaylord, according to the complaint.
An individual named Ruth Rendon, living in Texas, contacted Gaylord Police after she learned a bank account had been opened with that name. Gaylord Police notified the bank and instructed employees to call police if "Ruth Rendon" came to the bank, according to court documents.
At about 1:30 p.m. on March 9, 2012, Luz Maria drove Mendoza Sierra to the bank where Mendoza Sierra tried to deposit her paycheck at the drive through teller. Recognizing Ruth Rendon, the teller called Gaylord Police via a 911 call. Gaylord Police and Sibley County Sheriff's Office deputies went to the bank, according to the complaint.
After a Gaylord Police officer asked Luz Maria to follow him in her car to the station, a Sibley County Deputy motioned for Mendoza Sierra to follow him to his car. She objected, saying she had to go to work, in English and Spanish, according to the complaint.
During this time, a bank worker came out and returned the pay check the ID card issued to Mendoza Sierra. A deputy took the card, and dispatch confirmed that it was valid and there were no warrants for Mendoza Sierra.
Mendoza Sierra was taken to the police station, was told to sit down and was not explained her rights, When her identity was questioned, she replied and was accused of lying several times, by a Gaylord Police officer who pounded his fist on a table, according to the complaint.
By not accessing the Minnesota Identification Database to verify Mendoza Sierra's identity, law enforcement officers listed as defendants failed to conduct a proper investigation and were more concerned with her national origin and immigration status than any law violation, the complaint alleges.
Officers escorted Mendoza Sierra to her home and followed her inside without her permission, consent or a warrant. They confirmed her identification while in her home and then and drove her to work at Michael Foods, according to the complaint.
Due to the officer's actions, Mendoza Sierra seeks damages in excess of $75,000 for each of the 12-counts, plus costs and attorneys' fees and demands a jury trial and leave to amend the complaint to include a claim of punitive damages, according to court documents.
"In over 20 years of handling 1,983 civil rights cases, this is the most blatant disregard of an individual based on ethnicity and national origin by police that I have seen," said cooperating attorney Albert Goins, of Goins Law Offices, Ltd., Minneapolis.
Other attorneys working on the case are Ian Bratlie, staff attorney for the Greater Minnesota Racial Justice Project of the ACLU-MN, Mankato and ACLU-MN Legal Director Teresa Nelson.
Nelson said the defendants have 20 days to file an answer to the complaint.
"Most people were served last Friday (Feb. 15). Nothing is scheduled in court yet," Nelson added.
Gaylord County Attorney David Schauer said his office tendered the lawsuit to the Minnesota Counties Intergovernmental Trust (MCIT) but would not comment further.

Cramer's 'Mad Money' Recap: Shift Your Perspective
NEW YORK ( TheStreet) -- We are not the world, so stop investing like it, Jim Cramer commanded his "Mad Money" TV show viewers Wednesday.
Cramer said Europe's woes are likely to cause a weak open for our stock markets Thursday, but investors need to be smart and use that weakness to buy, buy, buy.
There's been a shift in our markets, said Cramer, and smart investors are no longer using weakness in Europe as a reason to sell, they're using it as a reason to buy. That makes sense because problems with banks in Cyprus or elections in Italy have absolutely nothing to so with sales at retailers such as Ross Stores
Cramer said if the markets open higher tomorrow, he'd be a seller and buy back in at lower levels. If the markets open flat, he'd look for specific opportunities and buy cautiously. But if the markets open lower, which they likely will, Cramer said there are a few stocks he'd be very interested in.
First off, Cramer said he'd be a buyer of the Pinnacle Foods' IPO because a lower open would likely give that food stock a 4% yield. Cramer said he'd also be a buyer of Costco and General Mills
So if things get ugly tomorrow, Cramer concluded, it's time to get buying.
Another Breakthrough
For today's "Breakthrough Medical Stock," Cramer highlighted Biogen Idec
Shares of Biogen are already up 56% since Cramer first got behind the stock just over a year ago, but the stock still trades at a mere 19 times earnings despite its 18.3% growth rate. That pegs Biogen at the same multiple as Bristol-Myers Squibb
Biogen's main focus has been on treating multiple sclerosis, a chronic condition that affects some 350,000 patients in the U.S. and millions around the globe. While Biogen has already been successful with its drug Avonex, Cramer said the company is also at the forefront of next-generation therapies including a longer-lasting version of Avonex as well as Tecfidera, which could be game changer, and Tysabri, Biogen's new MS drug that already has garnered 10% market share.

Bellaire school levy options outlined
BELLAIRE A special meeting was held here Monday evening by the Bellaire Local School District Board of Education with Superintendent Tony Scott giving an update on levy option and technology upgrades.
The board entered into executive session short after the start of the meeting to discuss personnel and negotiations which lasted for about 30 minutes.
Back in regular session, Scott discussed three levy options for the board to consider for the November General Election Ballot 7.9-mill, 6.9-mill and 5.9-mill levies.
A 7.9-mill levy would generate about $916,000 a year for the district. A 6.9-mill will generate about $800,000 a year and a 5.9-mill levy will generate $685,000, Scott said.
"One of the biggest issues we are going to be dealing with (with the state budget bill) is the 12-and-a-half percent reduction shows zero," Scott said. "What that means is the state gave the taxpayers a discount. The discount is gone. So if you compare the last one (levy attempt) we did, the 8.25 (emergency levy) to 7.9, you'll see that even through the millage is less, the monthly amount is more."
In December 2009, the school district was declared to be in "fiscal emergency" by the state auditor for failing to overcome a budget deficit in the district's five-year forecast. Since then, the district has had emergency levies and income taxes placed on the ballots to fix the financial woes, but all have been rejected by school district voters.
The most recent vote on an 8.25 mill emergency levy was shot down by voters in May, 1,039 to 842.
The district has cut staff and expenses as part of its efforts to lower the deficit and has had to take a no interest loan from the state.
The district has been about erase some of the debt, but without the new funds, Scott told the board the district is forecasting another budget deficit start in 2016 of about $883,000.
"In 2016, there is no more to cut," he said. "What we've been about to do is get our debt paid off we are not going to be able to see it through. And we still need to deal with our buses, technology, school safety and reinstate our music and (physical education) in kindergarten through eighth grade at the very least."
The board also heard about plans to upgrade the computer network for the schools. Scott said there have been issues with internet connections running slow. According to Scott, the district has a 10 megabit fiber optic line for it main connection from the high school. The elementary and middle school connect to that line via a transmission line or T1 line. The proposal is to upgrade the the fiber line that connect with OMERESA in Steubenville to 100 megabits and add a T1 line to both the middle and elementary schools.
Through a program called E-RATE, Scott said the district can get a discount on its Internet rate. The cost of the upgrade is about $16,000.
Scott said the upgrade should show a significant speed increase with network, which will be necessary for online state testing.

Topic: creating forums.
im not sure whether i am doing the right way but....
Category > Forums > Topics > Posts
This sort of relationship. As well as having the admin and the main view together, instead of separating them with app/admin. so upon login, if admin?, it will show the necessary admin tools.
then in the admin's menu, im thinking, a view just like a normal forum top down menu, except with edit/delete/new/ functions beside each category, forums, topics and such.....
intstead of having to login and go to a completely different administration page. I think having the admin functions on same page is more intuitive, and easier to maintain.
what do you think is the best method for a forum ?

Family loses Lake Street home to fire
Vote for your favorites
If you haven't filled out a ballot for Best of the Mountains Readers' Choice Awards, then hurry and vote for your favorite businesses by the deadline of Tuesday, April 1.
For those who don't know, this is a contest in which the people who read the Adirondack Daily Enterprise and the Lake Placid News decide which businesses they like best in a variety of categories in our local region. It is very important to the businesses because the winners get decals to put in their windows and certificates to hang inside their shops or offices, showing that the Tri-Lakes community at large thought they were the best in their field that year – the best testimonial there is.
There are 90 categories to choose from, alphabetically starting with best accountant and ending with best window display. We only ask that each person votes in 20 percent of the categories, which should be easy.
We also ask that you only submit one entry form that you personally fill out. Whatever you do, don't give your grandmother a stack of newspaper ballots to fill out with all of your friends' and relatives' names. That would be considered stuffing the ballot.
The third requirement is this: Each business you enter has to be currently operating and submitted under its current name. Some ballots have the names of businesses that changed names 20 years ago. We're not going to make guesses or assumptions about what you meant.
The best part of Best of the Mountains for us is when we go into a workplace to announce it has won and to take a staff photo. Their faces brighten up with pride as if we just announced they won the Academy Awards. There is no doubt that it is as big as that in the local perspective, judging by the piles of ballots our accounting department has to count and the numerous questions people ask us prior to the announcement.
The Best of the Mountains Readers' Choice Award winners – first, second and third places – will be announced on Friday, June 20 in a special tabloid section inside both the Enterprise and Lake Placid News.
So fill out the ballot printed in the newspaper, and if you work at a local business, don't be too surprised if one of our representatives comes up to you and says, "Smile, you've won Best of the Mountains!"
