Another possibility is to pre-moisten everything after measuring it out dry, creating a paste, weigh it all again, and divide the portions accordingly for individual batch sizes. Once you add water the density increases, making it possible to more precisely measure out the amount you want for a batch. Then just freeze the paste portions in your freezer until you need them. The beauty behind this method is that not only are you not concerned about cell damage, you would prefer it so that the essential chemicals within the cells are more accessible. When you're ready, microwave an individual batch portion and add it to your sauce.
November, I just wanted to post a quick thank you for the sharing the November Red Sauce #2 pizza sauce formulation. I followed the original recipe exactly and the result was very good. It was a bit too sweet after the first day out of the refrig, but it did mellow a bit after several more days.
RichC,Thank you. How much the amount of sugar will affect sweetness depends on how sweet and acidic the tomato is already. I have another sauce recipe (not posted) that I have used almost as much as #2 that uses 8g of salt and 9g of sugar for the same amount of tomato puree. You might want to consider those quantities next time.- red.november
freddy,I'm not sure where you went wrong, but here are the values I came up with:14 grams sucrose = 0.494 oz; that is approx. 3.5 t7 grams salt = 0.247 oz; that is approx. 1.25 t. (this is for ordinary table salt)3.5 grams garlic powder = 0.124 oz; that is approx 1 1/3 t.3.5 grams onion powder = 0.123 oz; that is approx. 1 1/2 t.Peter
freddy,On a vu basis, I get 2 1/2 teaspoons for the "herbs & spices". Ideally, the weight of the herbs & spices should be 3.5 grams. Dried herbs and spices can vary quite considerably, so that may not be the case. I would do the best you can. You shoudn't be so far off as to make the recipe unworkable.Peter
To me, cooked sauces end up tasting like pasta sauces. When you saute onions and garlic in some olive oil and then add tomatoes, you can add any amount of spices, but it will always taste like pasta sauce to me at this point. To each his/her own, though!
I decided to finally release my #2 pizza sauce into the wild, and figured I would put it here since the instructions for handling the herbs and spices in the microwave are already in this thread. First the ingredients, then a few notes, then a few instructions, and finally a few more notes.Red November Sauce (#2) 28 oz 11.3 NTSS (1.053 g/cc) tomato puree 14 g sucrose 7 g salt3.5 g herbs & spices (see below)3.5 g garlic powder3.5 g onion powderherbs & spices (dried & crushed) earthy component 4 vu oregano 2 vu marjoram 1 vu parsley sweet component 4 vu basil 2 vu tarragon 1 vu fennel seed savory component 2 vu rosemary 2 vu thyme spicy component 1 vu paprika 1 vu black pepperNotes: "vu" stands for volume unit since the measurements are expressed in ratios. If measured accurately and the herbs are crushed sufficiently, the total mass should be 3.5g when 1 vu = 1/8 tsp.Instructions: Add the sucrose (table sugar) and salt to the sauce first and whisk. In a separate sealable container measure and mix all the herbs and spices as well as the garlic and onion powders. I recommend choosing a volume unit that allows you to match your quantity of puree exactly. Trying to divide the herbs and spices after mixing will lead to uneven distribution. Seal the container and shake well. Pour the mixture into a microwaveable container such as a small Pyrex measuring cup. Add just enough filtered water to the mixture so that it is completely moist, but not suspended in water. Follow the microwave instructions in my two previous posts. Add the herbs and spices to the puree. Whisk and place in refrigerator to chill for at least 6 hours before using.Notes: As you might be able to tell, the herbs and spices are deliberately matched according to a specific flavor profile. There's a lot I could say about the reasoning behind the seasoning, as it took a long time to investigate each herb and spice in order to give it a profile component value, but it all still comes down to how each person thinks it tastes. The more experienced on this site should already know this, but be sure the puree has no added substances (e.g. salt, citric acid, seasonings) if you buy it canned. I hope I covered everything.- red.november
Do i even dare to try this with crushed and drained tomatoes ?
2) Oil of any kind in the sauce helps to entrap the flavors released during baking of the pizza, potentially resulting in a better flavor profile. Tom Lehmann/The Dough Doctor
Pizzamaking.com is like a gold mine. I've been reading this forum for many years but somehow I'd never read this thread before, and I'd never seen November's post releasing his Red November Pizza Sauce (#2) "into the wild", which he did way back in October of 2006! The thread had been dormant for about three years when Morgan posted a question, thus leading me to read the whole thread. And what a great thread it is! I learned about Microwave-Assisted Extraction (MAE), an industrial engineering technique for releasing flavors from herbs and spices, I became introduced to November, a truly brilliant fellow, who had many interesting things to say way back in 2006 (and probably still does, though not much here on pizzamaking.com), and there was even a bit of drama, when a not-so-friendly spat developed between November and SD Girl involving the issue of how long to keep spices in the pantry. Quite a ride. So thank you Morgan for posting on this thread. I think I will give November's Red November Pizza Sauce (#2) a whirl. I wonder what Red November Pizza Sauce (#1) is like? All hail this great forum! TinRoof
Norma;After 45+ years of eating, sleeping, breathing, researching, and consulting on pizza, a little has to eventually rub off.My job has always been fairly easy since I've got all the tools and toys one could wish for at my disposal for making, developing, and researching pizza. You and all of the other folks here are the truly innovative and creative individuals as you are all researching the different aspects of pizza, developing different styles of pizza, reverse engineering pizzas, and just plain making great pizzas all without the big and expensive toys that we work with. Now, that's a challenge. It is also interesting to note that there is a strong interest displayed here to make what we like to call "artisan" pizzas, be it in a home oven, or a wood fired oven out in the back yard. For what it's worth, this closely mimics some of the direction that pizza industry is now going in as we are beginning to see more artisan type pizza offerings in the frozen food cases, and pizzerias, in general, are asking more questions about how to make them. So the knowledge that I'm gaining here helps to shorten my learning curve too.Tom Lehmann/The Dough Doctor
This! Have to take this sauce for a spin and see how it goes. I'm not too picky about the sauce, just basic organic Italian crushed tomatoes with salt, sugar, herbs and black pepper. Sometimes i add olive oil, balsamic vinegar and lemon juice. I am skeptic about this sauce, but I'm going to test it anyway, it is different than i ever tried for sure so there must be totally different taste to it. I think i use more spices normally, but who knows maybe this is the best sauce there is.
Less!....is often times more than enough.
November's intelligence is way above mine.Norma

Tromsø/Nairobi, 3 June 2007 - Polar tourism has grown dramatically in the last ten years raising concerns about the possible negative impact on the environment and local communities, a new report says.
In the Arctic, tourist numbers have grown from about 1 million in the early 1990s to more that 1.5 million today. In Antarctica, the number of ship-borne tourists increased by 430% in last 14 years and land-based tourists by 757% in last 10 years.
At the same time, appropriate management practices and infrastructure in the Arctic and Antarctica have not in general matched the challenge of rising flows of visitors.
The adoption and application of relevant sustainable tourism policies and programmes is urgently needed, says the report.
These are some of the key messages in Tourism in the Polar Regions - The Sustainability Challenge, a new report from the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP), launched in advance of World Environment Day.
Regions, once the preserve of local and indigenous communities and scientists, are now very much on the fashionable tourist map and cruise line schedules, says Achim Steiner, UN Under-Secretary General and UNEP Executive Director.
The fragility of some of these unique and biologically rich ecosystems may be impacted by the number of visitors and the activities undertaken. Yet, tourism is an activity that if sustainably managed and with profits and revenues fairly shared can contribute to the conservation of the polar environment as well as the well-being and livelihoods of local communities in the Arctic, he said.
According to the new report, produced jointly with the International Ecotourism Society, there are serious concerns that the rapidly growing tourist industry is promoting environmental degradation in the Polar Regions (especially in the Arctic) by putting extra pressures on land, wildlife, water and other basic necessities.
With visitors to the Arctic now greatly exceeding their host populations in many popular destinations, there are also fears that unique cultural practices will be lost, and negative impacts on local peoples will grow.
According to Stefanos Fotiou, the report's coordinator and head of the UNEP tourism unit: There is a potential, like what happens in the Galapagos islands, to use tourism revenues for nature conservation projects in the Polar Regions.
When it comes to advancing polar tourism policies and programmes, Foriou says that the important thing, however, is to adopt the right approaches to the very different situations prevailing in the Arctic and Antarctica.
What is now needed to advance sustainable polar tourism policies and programs is to assemble existing information and create more practical tools; provide open access to that information and implement pilot projects that will contribute to the mainstreaming of a more sustainable tourism in the Arctic, Fotiou says. In the Antarctic efforts should be continued to ensure that commercial activities will not impact on the successes of the Antarctic Treaty system, in particular in securing Antarctica as a natural reserve, devoted to peace and science".
News from the report came as Helen Bjørnøy, the Norwegian environment minister, announced a ban on ships using heavy fuel oils visiting the protected areas on the east coast of Svalbard in the Arctic circle.
Tourism has become a big industry. Tourism brings jobs and opportunities to people all over the world?including Norway, including the Polar regions. But tourism?especially the large-scale global tourism?is also producing a growing pressures on resources, nature areas and ecosystems, she added.
Ms Bjørnøy further announced that Norway intends to nominate Svalbard for inclusion on the UN Educational Scientific and Cultural Organisation's (UNESCO) World Heritage List.
For Norway, it is a declared goal to make Svalbard one of the best managed wilderness areas in the world. All the environmental regulations for Svalbard have been gathered into one Act. All new activities?including within tourism?are therefore assessed on the basis of their overall pressure on the natural environment and cultural heritage. I have therefore taken an initiative to put this area on our 'tentative list' to UNESCO, she said.

The new UNEP/IES report outlines the key features of the Polar Region environment and describes tourism's multiple roles and impacts in both the Arctic and Antarctica. It describes the significance of polar tourism, explains the trends and impacts, proposes an agenda for sustainable tourism development, and outlines principles, guidelines and selected good practices to conserve these unique wilderness areas through the regulation and management of tourism.
World Environment Day, commemorated each year on 5 June, is one of the principal vehicles through which the United Nations stimulates worldwide awareness of the environment and enhances political attention and action. The World Environment Day slogan selected for 2007 is Melting Ice - a Hot Topic? In support of International Polar Year, the WED theme selected for 2007 focuses on the effects that climate change is having on polar ecosystems and communities, and the ensuing consequences around the world.

USA-Mexico Ticket Policies Announced
The Columbus Dispatch - July 05, 2013 12:25 PM
Tickets to see the United States host Mexico in a World Cup qualifier at Crew Stadium will go on sale to the general public via random draw July 19.
Fans wishing to purchase tickets will have from July 19-22 to apply for tickets and will do so through the Crew's ticket system. Individual buyers can request as many as four tickets for the match, which will take place Sept. 10.
"U.S. Soccer is taking this unique approach due to the expected high ticket demand," U.S. Soccer President Sunil Gulati said in a statement. "We've seen in the past few cycles that the USA-Mexico match in the Final Round of World Cup Qualifying is by far the most desired ticket, and we wanted to provide as many fans as possible a fair opportunity to secure tickets at face value."
In addition, more seats might be added to Crew Stadium for the match. Fans who are not selected for tickets will remain in the system should additional seating be announced. There is no charge for entering to win tickets.
In a frequently asked questions section of the release, U.S. Soccer said it hopes the random selection method will help the average fan find tickets to the match.
"By using a random selection draw, all fans have a fair and equal opportunity to purchase tickets at face value," it says. "Those applying for tickets can place their request at a time and date within the request period that is convenient to them, eliminating the race to be first in line to purchase tickets. The procedure also allows Ticketmaster time to carefully review all ticket orders to ensure possible purchasers are complying with the ticket policy established for this match. By enforcing the ticket policy, fans who intend to use their tickets personally will have a greater chance to purchase them."
Here is a link to the full release.

Jaime Hernandez: The last time the Mint had produced any proof cents was in 1916 when it struck the 1916 Matte Proof Lincoln cents. In 1936, the Mint struck Proof Sets for that year and produced the Lincoln Cent in two different finishes. The first Proof cents were struck in a Satin Finish, while the second finsih was struck in a Brilliant format.
The 1936 Proof Cent with a Satin Finish tends to lack strong Brilliant surfaces compared to the Brilliant Finish which has mirror like surfaces. The 1936 Satin Finish Proof cent is the scarcer of the two coins and there are probably no more than 600 coins that survive with the Satin Finish.

Crepes Buffet
Recipe courtesy of Rachael Ray
- 30 Minute Meals
In this menu, the crepe batter should be made first, as it should rest 20 to 30 minutes before using it. The fillings for the savory crepes[ and dessert crepes can be assembled within 30 minutes but the crepes themselves should be made to order in front of your guests — let them try making one themselves! Cooking the crepes to order provides entertainment for your gathering and includes your friends in the fun of preparation.]
- Basic Crepes:
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 6 eggs, beaten
- 1 1/2 cups milk
- 1/4 cup brandy, optional, use additional milk if you omit it
- 4 tablespoons melted butter
- White Sauce:
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 1 1/2 cups whole milk
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper
- Freshly grated nutmeg, to your taste
- 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper, 2 pinches
- 1/4 to 1/3 cup heavy cream, eyeball it
- Fillings:
- 2 cups shredded sharp cheddar, 8-ounce brick
- 1/2 cup grated Parmigiano-Reggiano
- 3 cups broccoli florets, available pre-washed in produce section
- 2 boxes chopped frozen spinach, defrosted and drained
- 1 pound thick sliced baked ham from deli counter, chopped
- 12 ounces cooked lump crabmeat, available fresh in plastic tubs at fish counter
- 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil, 1 turn of the pan
- 1/2 pound bacon, chopped
- 1 shallot, chopped
- 1 pound mushrooms, cleaned and sliced
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper
- Dessert filling:
- 2 (16 ounce) cans pitted black cherries
- 1 orange, zested
- 1 stick cinnamon
- 1 rounded tablespoon cornstarch
- 3 tablespoons warm water
- 2 jiggers Kirsch or Amaretto liquer
- 1/3 cup confectioners' sugar, plus additional for dusting
- 3 tablespoons butter, melted
For the crepe batter, combine flour and salt in a bowl and make a well in the center. Add eggs milk and brandy to the well and whisk to combine. Stir in melted butter. Cover batter and set aside for 25 minutes.
For the white sauce, cook butter and flour 2 minutes over moderate heat in a preheated medium saucepan. Whisk in milk and season sauce with salt, pepper, nutmeg and cayenne. Simmer over low heat 15 minutes, stirring occasionally. Stir in cream and heat sauce through, another 5 minutes over low heat. Turn burner to warm and stir sauce occasionally to avoid a skin forming. Whisk in a little milk if sauce thickens too much to ladle.
To assemble fillings, place cheeses in small bowls with serving spoons. Cook broccoli florets in simmering water or in 1 cup of water in the microwave for 3 minutes on high. Drain and place steamed broccoli in a bowl. Defrost spinach in the microwave oven and drain well. Transfer drained spinach to a kitchen towel and wring to remove any residual liquid. Fluff spinach with finger tips and set into a small serving dish. Place chopped ham into a bowl with serving fork. Drain and separate lump crab meat and place in a serving dish with a seafood fork.
For the bacon and mushroom filling, heat a small skillet over medium high heat. Add oil and bacon and saute 3 minutes. Add chopped shallots and sliced mushrooms. Season the filling with salt and pepper and cook 5 minutes until mushrooms are just tender. Transfer filling to a serving bowl.
To make the dessert filling, drain cherries over a saucepan to catch the juice. Heat the juice, orange zest and cinnamon to a bubble over moderate heat. Combine cornstarch with water and stir to the hot juice. Remove the cinnamon stick. Allow sauce to thicken then stir in cherries and Kirsch or Amaretto and keep sauce warm over very low heat. When your are ready to serve dessert, place filling in crepes, wrap and brush with melted butter. Top crepes with powdered sugar and serve.
When guests arrive, allow them to help make their own crepes to order. Crepes should be made in a nonstick skillet over medium heat. Cover the bottom of the pan with just enough batter to coat. Turn the crepes with a toothpick or a very thin spatula.
Possible combinations for fillings: cheese or cheeses melted into white sauce with broccoli and/or spinach, warm white sauce with crab, ham with cheese or ham with cheesy white sauce, cheese with bacon mushroom filling, etc. The fillings are only limited by one's taste buds.

Hope this doesn't expand the matrix.
59 numbers is tough enough, beyond that just send the $2 in to PB and skip the formality of playing.
The head of the Texas lottery announced in October that California would be joining PB in January. He said the matrix would not change.
Congratulations Cali........
I Love Pink & Green 1908
They're not worthy.
Oh Ridge, that's not very nice of you. We Californians have feelings you know. (It's true, I swear!)
Still glad to see you're back.
It was always in the stars for me to be a lottery winner.
Statistically things should not change. More people won't make it harder for you to win, the numbers are the numbers that are drawn. There may be more people to share the jackpot with you if you were lucky enough to get the right numbers, but nothing past that would change.
However, with a state that large with a population that large, the initial jackpot should be increased and the subsequent increases on each rollover increased at a larger rate also.
There is going to come a point where the MegaMillions is going to need to seriously compete with the Powerball. The price of the ticket is half of the PB, yet the initial jackpot is less than a third. It needs to be bumped up to at least $20 million.
I wonder if Todd has access to this, but it would be interesting to see what the sales of the MM vs the PB are state by state and how the sales were affected by increasing the price of the tickets from $1 to $2. I personally adjusted my strategy of buying multiple tickets when there was a big jackpot to instead of buying them all on my own like I did when it was $1 to going 50/50 with my brother usually.
Coke needs Pepsi and Pepsi needs coke. Lets just get this thing all ramped up and make Powerball and Mega millions national.
Thank you janem, but I have this haunting fear that Charlie Sheen might win it.
And that would destroy me.
I don't think I could go on.
I understand because that is a fear that haunts us all.
It would destroy every lotto player from east to west.
Still, we would have to find a way to go on.
And go on to play another day......
Congratations to California!
I feel as though they may combine the PB and Megamillion games into "The Super Power Mega National Game" once CA joins...it will have...
starting jackpots of $100 MILLION!!
I do wish Oklahoma had a there own state lotto game the odds would be better.
Ohio had a 100 numbers matrix for their Lot'O Play game(0-99) for a while when they switched from the Super Lotto game(6/49+1) but changed again to Classic Lotto(6/49) when people lost interest in playing. If PB was going to change anything it would probably be the numbers of bonus numbers.
* you don't need to buy more tickets, just buy a winning ticket *
Bigger Jackpots for sure
Be Happy.
lol I'd rather have Charlie win it vs Rosie O'donnell and the slew of Obama worshippers. At least with Charlie, you never know what side of the fence he will be on from day to day.
J'aime La France.
I just don't think I could bear it with him on tv and everywhere else doing that "Winning!" thing again.

Work is already underway on the biggest atrium overhaul in history.
The famous glass doors on the Lambeau Field Atrium are closing on Monday to make way for the major facelift.
"Visitors who come in should use the Oneida Nation gate" explains Aaron Popkey, the Packers' Director of Public Affairs. "The atrium is open, the Pro Shop is open, Curly's Pub is open and the stadium tours are still ongoing" he says.
The area known as Harlan Plaza will be excavated, to make it an entire floor lower.
The Pro Shop will move down to the space previously occupied by the Hall of Fame. The store will double in size.
"I think it is great" says lifelong fan Albert Kuether. "It is going to bring in more fans, going to be a fun thing to experience during the season and off season".
"I think they keep their fans in mind they make the facilities nice for them" says another fan, Curtis Cochran.
To make way for excavators, bronze statues of Curly Lambeau and Vince Lombardi are taking a brief vacation from their guard out front of the atrium.
"The statues will be back" Popkey says.
Video (available here) from Packers.com shows the process of moving the 20 foot tall, 2,000 pound monuments.
According to Popkey "Once the new plaza is done in July they will be moved back to a prominent place where people can visit and take pictures and those types of things".
The new entrances are on track to open by training camp.
"I think it is s great, the packers have something going for them. They are constantly growing" says Packers fan Holly King.
"We just have a moment here where it is pardon our dust, pardon our inconvenience but really we are going to make it as open and accessible as possible" Popkey says.
The $140 million project is being paid for entirely by the Packers through their own funds and the NFLs G4 loan program.

Implications for practice and research
Policy makers and nurse leaders making staffing decisions must take into account the evidence linking nurse staffing, skill mix and patient outcomes.
Researchers must continue to investigate staffing models to determine the most cost-effective model that supports quality care and take full advantage of the registered nurse workforce, especially given predicted shortages.
This study explored the impact of skill mix model changes on patient outcomes in a critical care environment, specifically, a respiratory care centre based in a southern Taiwan medical centre. It identified that the cost of ventilator-dependent patients in Taiwan in 1999 was 3.5 billion New Taiwan dollars, equivalent to US$ 121 million. In this context, controlling the costs of healthcare while …

Renesas Electronics Corp., a leading provider of semiconductor solutions, today announced the company's first blue-violet semiconductor laser diode with a wavelength of 405 nm and a new structure incorporating an optical waveguide into the semiconductor device, which enables high power output and excellent suitability for mass production, which results in higher yield.
The new blue-violet semiconductor laser diode (NV4A61MF) is intended for Blu-ray disc recording and playback, and features a new inner-stripe structure in which the optical waveguide that substantially influences the quality of the laser diode is incorporated into the semiconductor. In this new structure, the optical waveguide is fabricated on a gallium nitride (GaN) substrate with approximately ten times improved accuracy and 20% increased heat dissipation compared to the conventional devices, in which the optical waveguide is formed on the surface of the laser chip. With this innovative structure, the new device provides the following features:
- It offers high optical power output of 350 milliwatts (mW) suitable for 8x Blu-ray disc recording even at temperatures of up to 85°C.
- The current and optical output characteristics provide excellent linearity from the low-output range through the high-temperature, high-output range.
- It reduces laser noise (output fluctuation) that occurs during playback to less than one third of the company's existing devices, realizing 5 decibel per hertz (dB/Hz) improvement.
The Blu-ray disc drive market has been expanding rapidly as Blu-ray recorders achieved widespread adoption and increasing numbers of Blu-ray disc drives being incorporated in flat-screen TVs and PCs. The market is expected to grow continuously, with sales of 100 million units in fiscal 2011, growing by 150% from the previous year. Of these, the number of recorders, which require high output lasers, is expected to amount to 30 million units.
Majority of the existing blue-violet semiconductor laser diodes adopts a ridge-waveguide structure in which dry etching process is used on the semiconductor surface to fabricate an optical waveguide, a path that guides laser light, and current confinement to the light emitting layer, in a ridge formation. In a laser device, the thickness of the cladding layer formed immediately above the light-emission layer directly determines the device performance. However, the conventional dry etching process makes it difficult to control the cladding layer thickness due to lack of suitable material for etching stopper, which sometimes resulted in inconsistent laser performance.
Renesas Electronics's new NV4A61F laser diode adopts the company's newly developed inner-stripe structure, which reduces performance inconsistency while providing robust high-power output and low noise. The epitaxial growth technology that is capable of controlling the layer thickness at 1-nm level, same as that of an atomic layer, improves accuracy of the fabrication of the cladding layer by ten times compared to the conventional dry etching process. In addition, to efficiently concentrate current in the light emitting layer, the new laser adopts aluminum nitride (AlN) as the material to form the current blocking layer directly above the cladding layer. With its excellent thermal conductance and transparency necessary for the laser light to pass through, this new material improves heat dissipation from the light emitting layer by approximately 20% compared to the conventional ridge waveguide laser and realizes advanced device performance including excellent linearity in current and optical power output up to the high-temperature, high-output range.
Renesas Electronics aims to expand its lineup of blue-violet laser diode, expect to release the next 420mW laser for dual-layer, 12x Blu-ray recording by December, 2010, to support the realization of a next-generation of high-speed Blu-ray recorders.
The new NV4A61MF blue-violet laser diode is currently available for samples. Mass production is estimated to begin in August, 2010 and is expected to reach one million units per month by second half of calendar year 2011.

I've been looking for a discussion concerning the advantages of making your own dough vs purchasing pre made dough balls. From what I can see there is convenience and consistency of the purchased product. Seeing the many discussion about receipts and ingredients points to the opportunity to make a very unique product. So what to do? At what point does it make sense to jump into dough making or keep purchasing pre made. Mike

Continued 'care' means keeping Home
"You don't understand," County Executive Greg Edwards said at the finance meeting in Mayville. "Now, if you pay down a mortgage for a year you will have less value on that home?"
What's up with that? I know a car depreciates, but real estate always goes up or maintains its value. Now, the legislators finally voted last month to no sale to Avi Rothner, yet Mr. Edwards and Mr. Barmore the fireman have found a way to manipulate the law to make a simple majority sell to the Rothner family the County Home.
Mr. Edwards threatened to raise taxes (can you say 2 percent tax cap? A simple majority would be able to do that if the "new law" passes). That is such a bad idea, to make a simple majority dictatorship. Mr. Edwards has too many friends in the legislators to hope for honest decisions.
You now have to ask them, did they really do the research or did they just have a plan in the first place and they are just going through with it with the community's input or not? Their research was on how to get the home sold, not how to make it work for the community.
Chautauqua County had a $10 million "windfall" in the fall of 2012, Legislator George Borrello admitted "We the legislators were like kids in a candy store trying to spend that money." What? When you are $13 million in debt how responsible is it to throw $10 million to the wind?
Cattaraugus County has two county nursing homes and one airport with a population of 85,000. Their nursing homes are not for sale. Our county has a population of 135,000. Have we picked up the phone to get input on budget balancing from next door? No, it's easier to be sneaky and to throw "loopholes" into the law.
The Rothner home would not be in their back yard so why not sell to a man who, out of thousands of homes, runs and owns one of the 10 worst nursing homes in the country?
Lawmakers, please can you get on with business, try other more county-friendly ways to balance the budget?
That was why your legislators got the job, not to pass everything Mr. Edwards wants. We have to care for all ages in this county. It's the law, you lawmakers must uphold that need.

America is now an ex-superpower. First, it ceased to be the biggest economy in the world. It is now only the second-biggest economy. China has long overtaken it and the tables have been turned. Communist China has not only become an economic tiger; it has also become the biggest creditor of capitalist America.
And the decline of superpower America goes beyond economics. With China's recent foray into bullyism (yes, I invented that word) in the West Philippines Sea, it has allowed China to challenge its pre-eminence in the Pacific front. This used to be its bastion since World War II. This was why despite granting the Philippines nominal independence, it insisted on utilizing the country as an unsinkable military carrier with take-off points at Clark and Subic. These were bases that used to be its biggest military installations outside the mainland US.
Today, it is longer the US Navy that is feared in this part of the world. It is now the Chinese Navy that lords it over in these waters. First it took possession of Mischief Reef in the disputed Kalayaan groups of islands from Filipino soldiers then assigned in the island. Today, it has effectively driven away all Filipino presence in Panatag Shoal, an area that is literally the backwaters of the province of Zambales. And if the respected journalist Chito Santamaria is correct, China is not just interested in the fishing waters around Panatag. The real battleground, according to Chito, is Recto Bank where Manny Pangilinan is about to drill for oil.
Amidst this newfound Chinese expansionism, where is America? Well, at the first sign of a conflict, Hilary Clinton declared that it would take a neutral stance and urged a peaceful settlement of the dispute. Later, when the standoff persisted, she declared during a US Senate concurrence hearing on the UN Convention on the Law of the Sea that China's claims to the vast waters of the West Philippine Sea exceeded what is allowed under international law. And recently, when President Noynoy Aquino went to the US begging anew for help, no less than President Barack Obama was clearly non-committal. This is apparent in a White House release after the meeting between Obama and PNoy stating, among others, that the two leaders merely agreed on "firm support for a collaborative diplomatic process among claimants to resolve territorial disputes in a manner consistent with international law and without coercion or the use of force."
Make no mistake about it. Uncle Joe can't be counted upon to deal with China- the bully.
Central to American foreign policy is that as the lone superpower of the world, it can be counted upon to maintain peace and order in this planet. At the very least, if its economic woes have become so bad that it can no longer play the role of superman, it should have sufficient resources to stand by its long-standing ally when needed. But no, nowadays, the American position is for its allies to swim or sink. Full stop.
This is not to say that the American position is wrong. I for one have never believed that mother America will ever come to our rescue solely to defend our interests. This is why I have been a long supporter of the likes of Claro M. Recto and Jovito R. Salonga, who believed no one can be counted to uphold Philippine interest but us -Filipinos.
Still, this lackadaisical manner by which America seems to regard the recent threat of Chinese expansionism is a major change in its foreign policy.
Make no mistake about it. While America couldn't care less about the West Philippine Sea, it will come back to Subic and Clark not to defend us; but to uphold its own national interest. This is why it is in the process of sending 60 percent of its navy forces to Asia. Malacañang, I'm sure would want to take credit for this. But nope, this has been in the offing even before our recent controversy with China. At most, perhaps, the actual deployment of these forces to Asia was hastened by the dispute. They will come though not because Scarborough and the Spratly islands are ours. They will come because China's claims to these territories may precisely hinder deployment of their ships into these waters.
We, unfortunately, are irrelevant to their policy.

Here's how RW members rated this race in the past (593 votes).
In short: Absolutely Brilliant!In full: First time of doing the slog and what fun I had! Mud galore, I slipping and sliding everywhere, the sheep deep was hilarious, marshalls shouting"get in there" to the shreeks of delight from spectators, two cracking slippy hills and a stream (or bath as another marshall put it) to wade through, running through fields right next to cows and all the delights they had deposited, is not something you would normally experience! The organisation was exceptional, facilites were spot on and well the course itself just fantastic!And to top it all you get a great t-shirt and goody bag! If you do any race make it this one, 9.1 miles of absolute delight, I ran,well plodded all the way around with a huge grin on my face! Well done to everyone who organised it, you should be so proud, a truly fantastic race. Date of review: November 18, 2012
In short: Mud Fest!In full: If you like you runs with lots mud, muddy water and the odd hill this is the race for you. Well organised cant fault it!!Date of review: November 15, 2012
In short: One of my all time favourite races!In full: Missed out last year, managed to bag a transfer this year, and WOW was it worth it.This is one of those races that plasters an enormous grin on the chops the whole way round! Misleading start on the road, after half a mile I wondered what all the fuss about the mud was. Hahaha it had yet to appear!! A lot of stinky mud, a lot of smelly water, a dunking in the sheep dip, a soaking in the pig trough and 2 tumbles meant I was covered from head to toe in brown stuff by the end! I didn't find the race too hilly, but very slippy mud in places and quagmires in others made for slow going.Truly great camaraderie from every other runner, clockwork organisation from start to finish. Great value for the entry fee, decent changing facilities at the end. And I got a spot prize for 'looking like I had tried hard', Brilliant!!!Will make sure I get my entry in early next year, as this is a truly fantastic race.Date of review: November 14, 2012
In full: So much fun and I only do it for the beer afterwards.Date of review: November 14, 2012
In short: Muddy Fantastic!Date of review: November 14, 2012
In short: Best fun you can have with your clothes on - get filthy without getting told off by your mum! Wonderful, wonderful race. In full: This is my all-time favourite race. It's tough, not just because there are some hilly bits but because if you're towards the back of the field, as I am, you are slipping and sliding in the mud that's been churned up by over 1000 pairs of feet before you! But it's just brilliant. Organisation is incredibly smooth, the marshals are encouraging and friendly (although none of them wanted a hug from me - I wonder why?) and the camaraderie amongst the runners is heart-warming, as people stop to haul someone back to their feet and encourage others to splash right in the middle of the deepest muddy bits. The bugler playing the Last Post, the two minute silence and the respect given to Remembrance Day all add to the specialness that is this race. Keep on doing what you're doing, organisers - this is the best race going!Thank you.Date of review: November 14, 2012
In short: Superb organisation, wonderful Marshalls, great atmosphere, lots of mud and great value.In full: A faultless race and one to put in your diary if you haven't done it. It is deserving of all the praise given it over the years and should continue to be a very successful event in the future. I first ran it when it was known as the 'Beagle Bash' and approx. 10 miles. I've run it several times since and it never fails in any aspect to please. This is an event that many other race organisers would do well to use as a 'role model' for organisation.The course always changes, but always has the first 1 mile on the road and the last mile on roads and paths. In between: mostly off-road, flat and very muddy and wet in places. Quite energy-sapping, but like others have said, it brings a smile to your face and makes you glow all over.The facilities at the School are superb. Changing rooms, showers and plenty of bogs. Nice touch to have water hoses at the end to rinse off the mud and a recycling area for trainers, etc.Nice range of prizes and good non-technical long-sleeved t-shirt and 'goody' bag. More than just a bag of leaflets, as in some bags at other events. Just a couple of small suggestions: perhaps trophies or something similar instead of vouchers(very limited use) for winners prizes and more of a range of refreshments in the sports hall for post-run recovery. Only minor things, not a complaint or a moan.Many thanks to all those involved in the organisation, the Marshalls and other helpers for putting on another great race. Long may it continue.Date of review: November 13, 2012
In short: A great experience!In full: Loved it! Great cameraderie as you plough through the mud and water. Marshalls were superb, and local folk turn out en route to cheer you on. If only all events were like this.Date of review: November 13, 2012
In short: mud, fun and all in a good causeIn full: my 7th or 8th slog I think. Will be back next year!Date of review: November 13, 2012
In short: Mud Glorious MudIn full: Another fantastic race, glorious weather, glorious location and most importantly glorious MUD! See you all next year. Date of review: November 13, 2012

In short: Great race. Great weather. Great cake!In full: Excellent race. The weather was just right and the hilly first section was nowhere near as bad as I'd thought it would be (maybe having done the Seven Sisters both ways last Sunday coloured my impression!). Organisation was good and the Marshalls friendly and encouraging.

In short: A classic raceIn full: Once again, Terry and the Red Watch Crew have pulled it off with style. Chip timing for the firt time was impressive. Excellent atmosphere at the start with a repectfully observed minute's silence. The course is terrific as ever, but can catch out the unwary - the first 4km are up. This is a race where you must pace yourself carefully! However, once over the top mark at about 4.5km, you can let the legs go, and race down to the bottom of the hill (terrific views over the North Downs, and over the runners in front of you), for the last two or three km to the end. I had a great battle with three other runners, and came in a few seconds over 40 minutes...this course does have PB potential. I love this race - you see so many familiar local faces, and it's a bit of a festival. Brilliant local race. Thanks, and keep up the good work you lads!Date of review: November 9, 2008

Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton today urged international negotiators in Copenhagen to reach a broad operational agreement to combat climate change. In an op-ed published by the International Herald Tribune, the Secretary laid out a way forward that will promote sustainable development by moving the world toward a low-carbon economy.
"A successful agreement depends upon a number of core elements, but two are shaping up to be essential: first, that all major economies set forth strong national actions and resolve to implement them; and second, that they agree to a system that enables full transparency and creates confidence that national actions are in fact being implemented," the Secretary wrote.
The full text of the Secretary's op-ed follows:
The U.S. Is on Board By HILLARY RODHAM CLINTON
Our world is on an unsustainable path that threatens not only our environment, but our economies and our security. It is time to launch a broad operational accord on climate change that will set us on a new course.
A successful agreement depends upon a number of core elements, but two are shaping up to be essential: first, that all major economies set forth strong national actions and resolve to implement them; and second, that they agree to a system that enables full transparency and creates confidence that national actions are in fact being implemented.
Transparency, in particular, is what will ensure that this agreement becomes operational, not just aspirational. We all need to take our share of responsibility, stand behind our commitments, and mean what we say in order for an international agreement to be credible.
Representatives from more than 190 countries have gathered in Copenhagen in the hopes of meeting this urgent challenge to our planet. If we are serious about that goal, we will all embrace these principles.
It is no secret that the United States turned a blind eye to climate change for too long. But now, under President Obama's leadership, we are taking responsibility and taking action.
Already, the Obama administration has done more at home to promote clean energy and address climate change than ever before in our history. We are investing more than $80 billion in clean energy and working with Congress to advance comprehensive climate and energy legislation. And we have announced our intention to cut our emissions in the range of 17 percent below 2005 levels by 2020 and ultimately in line with final climate and energy legislation.
In light of the president's goals, the expected pathway in pending legislation would extend those cuts to 30 percent by 2025, 42 percent by 2030, and more than 80 percent by 2050. These are the kind of strong national actions that a successful agreement requires.
The United States has also pursued an unprecedented effort to engage partners around the world in the fight against climate change, and we have produced real results. President Obama launched the Major Economies Forum on Energy and Climate which brought together key developed and developing countries to work through issues essential to an accord. He also spearheaded an agreement, first among the G-20 and then among the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation nations, to phase out fossil fuel subsidies. This effort alone could reduce global greenhouse gas emissions by 10 percent or more by 2050.
So there should be no doubt about our commitment. We have come to Copenhagen ready to take the steps necessary to achieve a comprehensive and operational new agreement that will provide a foundation for long-term, sustainable economic growth.
This needs to be a common effort. All major economies, developed and developing, need to take robust and transparent action to reduce their carbon emissions. Of course, the actions required of the developed and major developing countries will not be identical, but we must all do our part.
The simple fact is that nearly all of the growth in emissions in the next 20 years will come from the developing world. Without their participation and commitment, a solution is impossible. Some are concerned that a strong agreement on climate change will undermine the efforts of developing nations to build their economies, but the opposite is true. This is an opportunity to drive investment and job creation around the world, while bringing energy services to hundreds of millions of the world's poor.
That is why United States is supporting an accord that both complements and promotes sustainable development by moving the world toward a low-carbon economy. The accord we seek will provide generous financial and technological support for developing countries, particularly the poorest and most vulnerable, to help them reduce emissions and adapt to climate change. And we are prepared to join an effort to mobilize fast-start funding that will ramp up to $10 billion in 2012 to support the adaptation and mitigation efforts of countries in need.
We can all see the way forward that has emerged from months of negotiations: decisive national action, an operational accord that internationalizes those commitments, assistance for nations that are the most vulnerable and least prepared to meet the effects of climate change, and standards of transparency that provide credibility to the entire process.
The United States is ready to embrace this path, and we hope that the rest of the world will rally around it this week.

I had an idea that would save energy costs upwards of a billion dollars a year in fuel costs. Once again it falls on deaf ears. I communicated with the Alternative Energy Department and ofcourse did not get the results needed. Popularity and Lawyers along with people who continue to cause stunts in the newspapers, i'm not like that at all, If I have an idea, I share it with people, especially at the energy department but with no real response on how kenetic energy will be used in a formula that would save upwards in the billions on fuel cost in our country. I guess nobody is really interested.

Global "climate change" was a hoax from the beginning.
What is real, however, is that our planet needs cleaning up.
Governments, mainly ours, have dumped radioactive waste, hazardous waste, and other lethal materials into our oceans.
Our government has polluted foreign lands with Agent Orange, Depleted Uranium, and other damaging materials, despite Pentagon promises to stop using DU shells.
Our government contaminated our own country with 40 years of open-air atomic bomb test fallout, 60 years of Leaded-gasoline fallout, and new contamination from extensive aerial spraying of so-called chemtrails. Americans are now dieing from an epidemic of cancer.
Our air, land, and water, need cleaning up. CO2 is not a problem, our bloated government is a problem, and one of the worst polluters on the planet.
We haven't built decent sewer systems for many our smaller towns or clean water for our cities, and you think we can change the climate? Now that is really "out of touch" with reality.
There is a 100% chance that Al Gore is wrong according to independent climatologists. But it is no lie to say that the earth needs cleaner technologies, better industrial processes, and less government pollution, to stop contaminating the environment.
The barren, dead land around Chernobyl tell us everything we need to know about careless polluting. It is nice that we can clean up land mines. Now it is time to clean up the radioactive mess at Hanford, Washington, Mercury, Nevada, and all the other places we disregarded during the race to develop a nuclear arsenal.
You can't do anything about the climate, but you can clean up your own country without destroying the national economy in the process as you are doing now.

December's Featured New Audiobooks
Click here for a complete list of our newest audiobooks!
Countdown : our last, best hope for a future on Earth? / Alan Weisman (BOOKS ON CD/304.2 W) -- In his bestselling book The World Without Us, Alan Weisman considered how the Earth could heal and even refill empty niches if relieved of humanity's constant pressures. Behind that groundbreaking thought experiment was his hope that we would be inspired to find a way to add humans back to this vision of a restored, healthy planet-only in harmony, not mortal combat, with the rest of nature. But with a million more of us every 4 days on a planet that's not getting any bigger, and with our exhaust overheating the atmosphere and altering the chemistry of the oceans, prospects for a sustainable human future seem ever more in doubt. For this long awaited follow-up book, Weisman traveled to more than 20 countries to ask what experts agreed were probably the most important questions on Earth--and also the hardest: How many humans can the planet hold without capsizing? How robust must the Earth's ecosystem be to assure our continued existence? Can we know which other species are essential to our survival? And, how might we actually arrive at a stable, optimum population, and design an economy to allow genuine prosperity without endless growth?
The circle / Dave Eggers (BOOKS ON CD) -- When Mae Holland is hired to work for the Circle, the world's most powerful internet company, she feels she's been given the opportunity of a lifetime. The Circle, run out of a sprawling California campus, links users' personal emails, social media, banking, and purchasing with their universal operating system, resulting in one online identity and a new age of civility and transparency. As Mae tours the open-plan office spaces, the towering glass dining facilities, the cozy dorms for those who spend nights at work, she is thrilled with the company's modernity and activity. There are parties that last through the night, there are famous musicians playing on the lawn, there are athletic activities and clubs and brunches, and even an aquarium of rare fish retrieved from the Marianas Trench by the CEO. Mae can't believe her luck, her great fortune to work for the most influential company in the world--even as life beyond the campus grows distant, even as a strange encounter with a colleague leaves her shaken, even as her role at the Circle becomes increasingly public. What begins as the captivating story of one woman's ambition and idealism soon becomes a heart-racing novel of suspense, raising questions about memory, history, privacy, democracy, and the limits of human knowledge.
The Supreme Macaroni Company / Adriana Trigiani (BOOKS ON CD) -- Valentine Roncalli is finally getting her fairytale ending on the roof of the Angelini Shoe Company. Gianluca Vechiarelli is the man of her dreams. But is life ever easy? Once the whirlwind of the wedding dies down, Valentine quickly realizes that juggling her beloved shoe company with marriage and an upcoming family will be the most difficult balancing act she's had to learn. Combined with the fact that Gianluca seems to be hiding more than one secret back in Italy.
The twelfth enchantment / David Liss (BOOKS ON CD/MP3) -- Lucy Derrick is a young woman of good breeding and poor finances. After the death of her beloved father, she becomes the unwanted boarder of her tyrannical uncle, fending off marriage to a local mill owner. But just as she is resigned to a life of misery, a handsome stranger—the poet and notorious rake Lord Byron—arrives at her house, stricken by what seems to be a curse, and with a cryptic message for Lucy. With England on the cusp of revolution, Lucy inexplicably finds herself awakened to a world where magic and mortals collide, and the forces of ancient nature and modern progress are at war for the soul of England . . . and the world. The key to victory may be connected to a cryptic volume whose powers of enchantment are unbounded. Now, challenged by ruthless enemies with ancient powers at their command, Lucy must harness newfound mystical skills to preserve humanity's future. And enthralled by two exceptional men with designs on her heart, she must master her own desires to claim the destiny she deserves.
Autumn bones / Jacqueline Carey (BOOKS ON CD) -- Fathered by an incubus, raised by a mortal mother, and liaison to the Pemkowet Police Department, Daisy Johanssen pulled the community together after a summer tragedy befell the resort town she calls home. Things are back to normal—as normal as it gets for a town famous for its supernatural tourism, and presided over by the reclusive Norse goddess Hel. Not only has Daisy now gained respect as Hel's enforcer, she's dating Sinclair Palmer, a nice, seemingly normal human guy. Not too shabby for the daughter of a demon. Unfortunately, Sinclair has a secret. And it's a big one. He's descended from Obeah sorcerers and they want him back. If he doesn't return to Jamaica to take up his rightful role in the family, they'll unleash spirit magic that could have dire consequences for the town. It's Daisy's job to stop it, and she's going to need a lot of help. But time is running out, the dead are growing restless, and one mistake could cost Daisy everything…
Heretics and heroes : how Renaissance artists and Reformation priests created our world / Thomas Cahill (BOOKS ON CD/940.2 C) -- In Volume VI of his acclaimed Hinges of History series, Thomas Cahill guides us through the thrilling period of the Renaissance and the Reformation (the late fourteenth to the early seventeenth century), so full of innovation and cultural change that the Western world would not experience its like again until the twentieth century. Beginning with the continent-wide disaster of the Black Death, Cahill traces the many developments in European thought and experience that served both the new humanism of the Renaissance and the seemingly abrupt religious alterations of the increasingly radical Reformation. This is an age of the most sublime artistic and scientific adventure, but also of newly powerful princes and armies and of newly found courage, as many thousands refuse to bow their heads to the religious pieties of the past. It is an era of just-discovered continents and previously unknown peoples. More than anything, it is a time of individuality in which a whole culture must achieve a new balance if the West is to continue.
White fire / Douglas Preston and Lincoln Child (BOOKS ON CD) -- In 1876, in a mining camp called Roaring Fork in the Colorado Rockies, several miners were killed from grizzly bear attacks. Corrie Swanson has arranged to examine the remains of the dead miners. She makes a shocking discovery. Town leaders, try to stop her from exposing their community's dark and bloody past, arrest and jail her. Special Agent Pendergast of the FBI arrives and with the town under siege, and Corrie's life in desperate danger, Pendergast must solve the riddles of the past.
