Great recipe. I also left out the water and simmering the dressing made all the difference. I added 4 chopped scallions to garnish and it got rave views at the party I brought it to.
I made the dressing as indicated in the recipe, then cooked the potatoes and bacon in it while it was reducing. The flavour permeated the potatoes more strongly than when I added it after. Yumm!
The bacon I used was super thick so I only used 3 slices and it worked just fine. Used small red skin potatoes and cut them into quarters. We ate it warm but most of it we chilled and ate the next day. It held up well and was still very tasty.
I should have followed the recipe instead of the reviews! I used all vinegar instead of a mix of vinegar and water and I thought it was too much. I suggest you start with the recommended amount of vinegar and add more later if you want. Also, I only had 4 slices of bacon and it was still good.
Made this for an Oktoberfest party-- I did the recipe x 8 and needed to prep the night before so I prepared the potatoes and kept them covered in the fridge overnight, then made and tossed them with the dressing the next day and served at room temp. Rave reviews! Don't skip the dill. It adds a pickle taste. I also used all vinegar instead of water and it was perfectly tangy.
This is so easy and actually healthy. I buy the Applegate Sunday Bacon, which has little fat and no nitrates. We found that we had to double the dressing otherwise the potatoes absorbed too much. Also added a little more vinegar. I brought this to a BBQ and everyone loved this potato salad. It's a keeper!
I've made this several times and it is always well received. At first I felt it needed more flavor so I bumped up the vinegar (others have done the same), mustard and bacon. We prefer it without the dill all together. I serve it with the Bratwurst with Apples, Onions and Sauerkraut. 5 yums from Chef B.
this was fairly easy and a classic german potato salad. i didn't have fresh dill, but used dried and i think the fresh dill would have made this outstanding.
Thought it was great, used less salt per other reviews.
Great recipe. I will nix the water and use all vinegar next time. Really good as it was however!

Hi, Kimberly here! I want to introduce you to my Babylock Crescendo. I had the Baby Lock Ellisimo and the Baby Lock Symphony and recently upgraded to the Babylock Crescendo. I love Baby Lock machines and I have a really bad habit of trading in for a new model every 1-2 years. I need to stay out of the sewing machine store! I like to keep my Crescendo as clean as can be. No stickers or decals. I don't even take it to retreats! My Juki TL-2010Q is my on-the-go machine that accompanies me to retreats and to classes. I also recently bought a Baby Lock Evolution Serger and I just can't wait to master it! I am currently taking classes and will be using it for the many pillowcases I make for my four kids!
My favorite feature on my Crescendo is the laser light that eliminates the need to draw a line when making half square triangles or flying geese blocks. I also love the pivoting featuring on the Crescendo. This feature leaves the presser foot up and the sewing needle in the down position. My favorite machine accessory has to be my walking foot. I use it to attach bindings, which I typically do about once a week. I have three different walking feet and use all of them!
My sewing room is very small and in a strange space, filled with corners. I do love that it is small so everything is very close together. I love the Koala Furniture but my room is too small to fit the items in my room! I purchased all of my sewing furniture, chair and machine from Sew Much More in Austin, Texas. Ron and Barbara are wonderful and if you ever need a sewing machine give them a call and let them know I sent you! I store all of fabric in white wire racks that I purchased from The Container Store 12 years ago! I store similar fabrics together. I do not like any type of clutter so I actually clear out my fabrics every year so I don't have any fabrics around that I won't ever use.
I currently own four machines. The first is my Bernina Virtuosa. I have an antique Singer treadle machine, in perfect working condition. I don't ever use it, but I love antiques and this is one of my most treasured pieces. I have a Bernina 807 from the early '70s that belonged to my mother-in-law. I have had it serviced, so it is ready for sewing. The third machine is a light weight Bernina Activa 125, I bought when I started taking quilting classes. I purchased this machine as a 'starter' one, and it served me well.
My sewing room is a beloved space in my home. It is full of my mother's quilts and many of her belongings. There is also an antique Victrola cabinet which houses my rulers and other notions. Fabric is stored in furniture chests. I have lots of family photos in the room, along with some framed needlework pieces I stitched for my mom. My cutting table which has two leaves and two drawers that are the entire depth of the table. The cabinet for housing my machine has a drop leaf on the back that can be raised whenever I'm working on a large quilt.I'm rarely alone in my sewing room – the family cat, Leviticus, is usually in the floor underneath the ironing board.
As for my other machines, my husband bought me a Viking Sewing Machine about 25 years ago and I started my "quilting" career with it. I took many quilting classes and made my first quilt with it. I keep it maintained and still use it once in a while. My second machine is the Bernina 153 QE and was purchased at Fall International Quilt Festival as a classroom machine. This machine took me to a new level of piecing and quilting and I still use it a lot! I would also love to own a Singer Featherweight, but just haven't found the "one"!
My sewing room is very small, but it works great for me! I purchased a Koala Sewing Cabinet at International Quilt Festival several years ago and I love it. Koala had a deal that if you bought one unit you got another of the same unit "free", so my girlfriends and I collaborated and purchased our furniture that way. My cutting table is from a catalog and opens up to be huge. Then there is my big screen TV! I wanted was a flat-screen TV with a DVD player to watch movies, but my husband interpreted this as a 60" with NO DVD player! So I sit directly across from it and feel like the characters on the screen are right in the room with me! My stash is stored in two closets, one in the sewing room and then I took over my daughter's closet when she went to college. I store everything in Container Store "sweater" boxes and try and keep like fabrics together either by collection or color.

About Carey
Thanks for visiting my blog!
I'm Carey Schumacher, the owner of San Diego Barefoot Memories.
Random facts about me…
I love:
Steak, Diet Coke (from a fountain! from a can, Diet Dr. Pepper is better), eating out, walking to pick my kids up from school, music (I would love to be a chorus member of a WICKED production, and in my dreams, I'm Elphaba), and the occasional strawberry lemondrop martini.
I really don't like:
Laundry, doing dishes, beer, R&B music, Pepsi, and seafood.
a bit more…
My images have been published in every U.S. newsstand photography magazine and won multiple international photography awards. I've spoken across the country to photographers and to photography enthusiasts, teaching photography and business strategies to thousands. Families come from all corners of the country for a Barefoot Memories photoshoot. I have been featured on NBC, FOX, KUSI, and KOGO here in San Diego.
But I'd still choose a soccer game with my kids over a photo session as my favorite way to spend an afternoon.
Here's my latest print ad for Mpix, and I have no problem admitting that I used Photoshop on myself!
I'm working on getting my other appearances up on YouTube for you… hopefully I'll have that done before my kids are in college!

Mother's day traditions
Original post made by MomAndDaughters, College Terrace, on Mar 26, 2007
Last year, my mother, myself and my two daughters made a ceramic pot for the mother's day.. each person got to do their own artwork on it and all of us signed our names. Its been a year and this pot is a joy to see ! I wanted to continue this and I am looking for ideas for "keepsake" objects, which a pre-schooler, a second grader can also participate in.
Any thoughts/suggestions?
Thanks !

There's a place in Menlo Park called Color Me Mine (on Santa Cruz, I think) where you can docorate various pieces of pottery and they finish it. I have also heard of quilts, or quilted pillows, made of outgrown baby/toddler clothes, used as the fabric pieces. Another idea is decorating directors chair with fabric paints. If you look in the fabric stores you can often find all sorts of ideas for these types of projects.

Mosaics are very easy to make, low costs, and you can have lots of helpers. Michael's art supply store has mosaic supplies. We did some a few years ago using pieces of wood for the base and referring to some books for instruction and ideas.

Also, just walking distance from College Terrace, there is Create It! on California Avenue. They have mosaics and pottery painting so you could do either and it would be a nice walking outing for you as a group.

Dir. Michael J Murphy
The story behind director Michael J Murphy's recent low budget, darkly comic and rather splattery Skare, is an interesting one. Basing the script on his own short story, Murphy set about filming in 2001. Disaster struck, however, when the unprocessed film got lost in the post on the way to be developed at Kodak. Murphy found himself in dept and without a film.
Skip ahead a few years and as Murphy began working on a new project, he found himself drawn back to the original script of Skare. Gathering together a new cast and crew, the tenacious filmmaker set about filming Skare once again.
The story focuses on the unlikely, and increasingly disturbing, partnership between Martha - the reclusive owner of a country club and Dan - a young escapee from a nearby psychiatric hospital. Dan soon discovers that Martha has sinister ulterior motives for her kindness and following the discovery of a decapitated head in a refrigerator, it soon becomes very clear the lengths she goes to in order to cook up the meaty meals she serves to Dan and her customers...
Head over to Eye for Film to read my full review.
Skare was released in September 2009 by Sarcophilous Films, a fledgling independent DVD label. Check out their site here.

Comment Re:Is This Bus Syndrome? (Score 1) 492
My belief is that projects like CentOS are there because people want to skate on the backs of people and companies who have spent time and money making a good product, just because they don't want to pay for that hard work. I believe this is the flaw in the GNU license, and not open source in general.
As opposed to what, BSD? The GPL is viral in that all derivative products must be contributed back to the community, whereas a less strict open source license would allow CentOS to keep the modified source to themselves as long as they gave due credit. I'm not a fan of the GPL, but this is a complete misrepresentation.

HCV Drugs May Reactivate HBV, FDA Warns »
"Patients with a past or current hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection can experience sometimes fatal HBV reactivation if they take any of nine direct-acting antivirals for hepatitis virus C (HCV) infection, the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) a"...
[Haemophilus b Conjugate (Meningococcal Protein Conjugate) and Hepatitis B (Recombinant) Vaccine] Intramuscular Injection.
COMVAX® [Haemophilus b Conjugate (Meningococcal Protein Conjugate) and Hepatitis B (Recombinant) Vaccine] is a sterile bivalent vaccine made of the antigenic components used in producing PedvaxHIB® [Haemophilus b Conjugate Vaccine (Meningococcal Protein Conjugate)] and RECOMBIVAX HB® [Hepatitis B Vaccine (Recombinant)]. These components are the Haemophilus influenzae type b capsular polysaccharide [polyribosylribitol phosphate (PRP)] that is covalently bound to an outer membrane protein complex (OMPC) of Neisseria meningitidis and hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) from recombinant yeast cultures.
Haemophilus influenzae type b and Neisseria meningitidis serogroup B are grown in complex fermentation media. The primary ingredients of the phenol-inactivated fermentation medium for Haemophilus influenzae include an extract of yeast, nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide, hemin chloride, soy peptone, dextrose, and mineral salts and for Neisseria meningitidis include an extract of yeast, amino acids and mineral salts. The PRP is purified from the culture broth by purification procedures which include ethanol fractionation, enzyme digestion, phenol extraction and diafiltration. The OMPC from Neisseria meningitidis is purified by detergent extraction, ultracentrifugation, diafiltration and sterile filtration.
The PRP-OMPC conjugate is prepared by the chemical coupling of the highly purified PRP (polyribosylribitol phosphate) of Haemophilus influenzae type b (Haemophilus b, Ross strain) to an OMPC of the B11 strain of Neisseria meningitidis serogroup B. The coupling of the PRP to the OMPC is necessary for enhanced immunogenicity of the PRP. This coupling is confirmed by analysis of the components of the conjugate following chemical treatment which yields a unique amino acid. After conjugation, the aqueous bulk is then adsorbed onto an amorphous aluminum hydroxyphosphate sulfate adjuvant (previously referred to as aluminum hydroxide).
HBsAg is produced in recombinant yeast cells. A portion of the hepatitis B virus gene, coding for HBsAg, is cloned into yeast, and the vaccine for hepatitis B is produced from cultures of this recombinant yeast strain according to methods developed in the Merck Research Laboratories. The antigen is harvested and purified from fermentation cultures of a recombinant strain of the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae containing the gene for the adw subtype of HBsAg. The fermentation process involves growth of Saccharomyces cerevisiae on a complex fermentation medium which consists of an extract of yeast, soy peptone, dextrose, amino acids and mineral salts.
The HBsAg protein is released from the yeast cells by mechanical cell disruption and detergent extraction, and purified by a series of physical and chemical methods, which includes ion and hydrophobic chromatography, and diafiltration. The purified protein is treated in phosphate buffer with formaldehyde and then coprecipitated with alum (potassium aluminum sulfate) to form bulk vaccine adjuvanted with amorphous aluminum hydroxyphosphate sulfate. The vaccine contains no detectable yeast DNA, and 1% or less of the protein is of yeast origin.
The individual PRP-OMPC and HBsAg adjuvanted bulks are combined to produce COMVAX. Each 0.5 mL dose of COMVAX is formulated to contain 7.5 mcg PRP conjugated to approximately 125 mcg OMPC, 5 mcg HBsAg, approximately 225 mcg aluminum as amorphous aluminum hydroxyphosphate sulfate, and 35 mcg sodium borate (decahydrate) as a pH stabilizer, in 0.9% sodium chloride. The vaccine contains not more than 0.0004% (w/v) residual formaldehyde.
The potency of the PRP-OMPC component is measured by quantitating the polysaccharide concentration by an HPLC method. The potency of the HBsAg component is measured relative to a standard by an in vitro immunoassay.
The product contains no preservative.
COMVAX is a sterile suspension for intramuscular injection.
What are the possible side effects of this vaccine (Comvax)?
Your child should not receive a booster vaccine if he or she had a life-threatening allergic reaction after the first shot.
Keep track of any and all side effects your child has after receiving this vaccine. When the child receives a booster dose, you will need to tell the doctor if the previous shots caused any side effects.
Becoming infected with haemophilus B or hepatitis A is much more dangerous to your child's health than receiving the vaccine to protect against these diseases. Like any medicine, this vaccine can cause side effects, but the risk of serious side effects is...

What are the precautions when taking haemophilus b conjugate and hepatitis b vaccine (Comvax)?
Before using this vaccine, tell the health care professional if your child is allergic to it; or to yeast or latex; or if your child have any other allergies. This product may contain inactive ingredients, which can cause allergic reactions or other problems. Talk to your pharmacist for more details.
Before using this vaccine, tell the health care professional your child's medical history, especially of: bleeding problems (e.g., hemophilia, low platelets, anticoagulant treatment), current illness with fever.

We live in some pretty incredible times. The realization that we have borrowed so much from the future (US current deficit is 41% of expenditures!!)that we'll likely not be able to pay it back using our current economic model and existing wealth distribution is slowly starting to dawn on people. At times the implications seem overwhelming. But this Halloween Campfire post is a quick reminder that despite our massive challenges, (and that we are human, imperfect, and mortal) - we can find joy, fun, meaning and satisfaction in many everyday, low throughput ways - we just have to decide to do so. That's both the trick and the treat.
Snap-Apple Night, painted by Irish artist Daniel Maclise in 1833. It was inspired by a Halloween party he attended in Blarney, Ireland, in 1832
On this Hallow's Eve, let's take a brief respite from brain spinning analysis. What is Halloween anyway? From Wikipedia:
The festival of Samhain celebrates the end of the "lighter half" of the year and beginning of the "darker half". The celebration has some elements of a festival of the dead. The ancient Celts believed that the border between this world and the Otherworld became thin on Samhain, allowing spirits (both harmless and harmful) to pass through. The family's ancestors were honoured and invited home whilst harmful spirits were warded off. It is believed that the need to ward off harmful spirits led to the wearing of costumes and masks. Their purpose was to disguise oneself as a harmful spirit and thus avoid harm. In Scotland the spirits were impersonated by young men dressed in white with masked, veiled or blackened faces. Samhain was also a time to take stock of food supplies and slaughter livestock for winter stores.
"Trick or treat?" The word "trick" refers to a (mostly idle) threat to perform mischief on the homeowners or their property if no treat is given. In some parts of Ireland and Scotland children still go guising. In this custom the child performs some sort of show, i.e. sings a song or tells a ghost story, in order to earn their treats.
As we move into the 'darker half' of the limits to growth movie that we've all been watching and cataloguing, it is important to realize that a) we have the power to 'trick' our brains into obtaining meaning and satisfaction in unconventional ways and b) we can 'treat' ourselves to fun, laughter, and joy - even in the face of energy descent.
Adaptation executor
We actually still have plenty of energy. The main problems are not technology or BTUs but a misguided faith in a financial/economic system that will require at least 20 years for a viable lower energy quality/quantity transition and that must continually grow to keep society stable en masse. Despite micro-economic mantra that human agents are rational actors, the body of research is growing suggesting we are adaptation executors, in effect interacting with our cultural cues to perform activities that give us the cocktail of neurotransmitters that caused our ancestors to successfully be our ancestors. Ergo, we don't run around trying to increase the survival of our genes- but we respond to available cultural stimuli that pull us in the direction of matching historically parallel behaviors. It is important to note that pursuing economic fitness is a 'trick' of our evolutionary wiring - we (at least in America) live in a culture where monetary wealth is (perceived to be) correlated with social status, which is one of our core sub-cortical behavioral drivers. A carton of Haagen-dazs contains more fat and sugar than literally anything in the ancestral environment. No human with a purposeful goal of maximizing their alleles' inclusive fitness would ever eat a tub of ice cream unless they were starving. As such, individual organisms, after they are birthed, are best thought of as adaptation-executers, not fitness-maximizers. (I wrote a much lengthier description of the science underpinning this, in The Evolutionary Origins of Resource Overconsumption.)
This will (hopefully) be a recurring theme in addressing resource source and sink constraints. As our assets and liabilities become better sorted out, it will be an open question what sort of skills/genes/assets portfolio will equate with social status in the future - I think it a virtual certainty that piles of virtual wealth in the next 20 years will have less impact than they have had in the last 20 years - suggesting to me that a) we must substitute quite a few lower entropy choices into our weekly routine activities once this cultural carrot begins to shift and b) we can play a role in what such a shift looks like.
Inglehart Curve - how do we get to the red circle? (voluntarily)
This can only be taken so far - no matter how we choose to get our enjoyment or status we still have to eat, stay warm, use energy. Sociological research suggests however that once these basic needs are met we get very little incremental utility from increases in throughput. As such, to target the red circle in the above graphic might be a logical societal (and individual target). But how do we get there?
This concept not limited to hominids only
The USA has 4% of the world population but consumes 50% of the worlds prescription medicine annually. IOW we use 12.5 times the pills than the average non-American human. I suspect in many cases we can attain the same results from 'tricking' our brains into different behavior - we could do the same with energy and resource use. To use one example, the presence of a pet increases ones serotonin levels in similar ways to eating chocolates or taking an antidepressant. For me personally, I spend a lot of time with animals, and nature, and feel fortunate to have the opportunity to do so. I now have 4 cats, 3 dogs, 4 horses and 11 chickens (lost 2 goats and 2 horses in last year). I enjoy watching the interactions of the different personalities and different species. All are friends, to varying degrees, though I'm well aware this comedy menagerie is subsidized by a ready, steady supply of kibbles in the cupboard and barn. And, actually, with exception of my flights to various concerts and the rare vacation, I use dramatically less energy than I used to - probably less than 1/3. It is important to note that I didn't make this shift to 'save the planet', but to improve my own life. We all want a better planet, but focusing behavioral change at the selfish/immediate bottom line will work much better than theoretical far-off 'facts'.
This week we attended a Halloween party at a friends farm. Kids were invited as well - it was a potluck. I decided my costume to be a deerskin Daniel Boone jacket with a buffalo horn hat, dog collar and leash, held by my girlfriend dressed as a dominatrix. Though funny in itself, it became even more so after arriving at the party - where roughly 40 adults and 80 kids were milling around - it turned out the 'costume' aspect of the party was for the kids not the adults. The hostess, upon seeing us said in a flat tone "nice costume - and only mildly scary" - after a couple 6 year olds stared at me and looked like they were about to cry, I removed the dog collar and leash and retreated to a corner with double fisted beers. (In the future, I'll recall my brother's advice that I could go to most Halloween parties as myself and folks would think I was wearing a costume).
Peak Credit and Peak Oil are a big deal. Let's work hard on ascertaining and mitigating our energy, resource and economic situation - but let's try to balance analysis with humor and levity from time to time. (I'm actually planning a trick to play on Rembrandt right now...)
1) What sort of lower throughput activities are you pursuing in order to improve your life facing general resource decline?
2) How can society move towards the red circle in the Inglehart curve above? Top down decree or bottom up grassroots?
3) Any good tricks?

The Royal Newfoundland Constabulary (RNC) has arrested and charged 12 people in relation to three separate altercations at Her Majesty's Penitentiary (HMP) on Forest Road in St. John's.
On June 3, around 8:20 p.m. the RNC responded to the HMP to the report of a disturbance in one of the living units that resulted in significant damage to that unit. An investigation has resulted in 12 people being charged with riot, malicious damage and various other charges.
On June 4 and again June 12, the RNC received two separate complaints of threats at HMP. Correctional officers reported to police that they were threatened by inmates. Those investigations have resulted in one inmate being charged with uttering threats for the June 4 incident and four being charged in the June 12 incident.
Five of the inmates charged with uttering threats are part of the 12 charged in the June 3 incident.
The RNC said all suspects will appear in court this afternoon.

Sennheiser makes some of the best headphones in the world. Its top-end HD 800 headphones are one of just a couple of pairs of receive our Editor's Choice award. The new Sennheiser HD 700 bridge the gap between this £1000 pair and the £300 HD 650. From any other manufacturer, a £600 set like these would be top dog, and they have a lot to prove.
The Sennheiser HD 700 headphones borrow design chops from their big brother, the HD 800. They have a similar space-age look, with cups full of silvery sections, split with a mix of curves and sharp, defined lines. It's a design that makes the HD 650 look rather plain - but that's not to say many won't prefer the more sober looks of the all-grill 650s.
Why all the complicated seams and sections? It's all in an effort to create a structure that completely dampens vibrations, eliminating distortion and keeping the sound as pure as possible.
These are - like the other high-end HD-series models - open-back headphones. The silvery sections that form part of each earcup's back are made of fine steel mesh, curved perfectly for a smooth surface. This mesh covers each opening in the largely-plastic frame. This build is very similar to the HD 800, although the rear grill is much smaller here.
Behind the grill sits the 40mm driver and the "turbulence-reducing" technology that Sennheiser is keen to big-up in this new set. When there's nothing to see of this without tearing the headphones apart, we recommend not thinking about it too much, but it's all about managing airflow and ensuring there are no air vacuums that could affect the driver unit. It's all very clever stuff that helps to justify the slightly Arthur C. Clarke looks.
The Sennheiser HD 700 are circumaural headphones that use pads topped with extremely fine velour. Like their bigger brothers - in both price and size - they are made deliberately large in order to help the weight distribution.
Although the padding is a little harder than some, these headphones are supremely comfortable. As certified at-home headphones they don't need to clamp your head too tight. With a mid-firm grip and light weight, they'll sit happily on your bonce for hours at a time. The headband in particular is extremely well-padded, distributing pressure across the entire top of your head rather than just a top-most point.
Most reading this would probably never consider these headphones for the purpose anyway, but just in case - these are absolutely not outdoors headphones. They offer virtually no sound isolation and leak noise considerably. Neither is a minus point in an open-back headphone, but it is nevertheless something to consider.
Accessories and cable
Keeping things simple in a manner that's typical of a high-end headphone, the Sennheiser HD 700 come in a protective presentation case but offer no accessories as such. Aimed at the home audio enthusiast and above, the cable ends in a 6.3mm jack, and no 3.5mm converter is included.
Much more important, though, the cable is of excellent quality and is removable. Unlike the Sennheiser HD 650 with its proprietary solution, each cup cable here uses a mono 2.5mm jack with an indent in the rubber shielding to aid insertion. The cable has a braided design, giving it a high-quality feel.
Although these headphones have less of a grand stature than the top-end Sennheiser HD 800, they are nevertheless stunningly well-built. Yes, they are not made entirely out of steel, glass, wood and other materials that feel conspicuously hard and expensive, but the movement of each joint and the assured flex of the headband tells you instantly that these are top-end headphones.

During the second quarter of 2012, the New Jersey Lawyers' Fund for Client Protection, funded by the state's lawyers and judges, paid $762,914.50 to clients for losses caused by eleven lawyers, the Board of Trustees has announced.
The purpose of the Fund is to pay on behalf of the honest majority of lawyers for the wrongdoing of the few who are suspended or disbarred for misappropriation. In its 43-year history, the Fund has paid claims against a total of 681 attorneys. There are 90,418 lawyers licensed in New Jersey.
The Fund operates under the authority of the Supreme Court pursuant to Court Rule 1:28. The Court appoints the seven trustees, five attorneys and two public members, who serve staggered 5-year terms without compensation. The trustees consider clients' claims and make awards when it is determined that the loss was caused by dishonest lawyer conduct, under Fund rules. Cases involving legal malpractices and negligence are handled through civil court actions and fee disputes through the district fee arbitration committees established by the Supreme Court.
For a claim to be paid, the attorney against whom it is filed must have been a member of the bar, acting as either attorney or fiduciary, at the time of the incident; and unless deceased, must have been disbarred or suspended from the bar, or convicted of embezzlement or other misappropriation of property.
An individual client can receive up to $400,000 for claims arising after Jan. 1, 2007, lesser amounts for claims arising prior to that date, and the Fund can provide up to $1.5 million in claims against any one lawyer. Special permission can be granted by the Supreme Court to exceed the aggregate limit.
To receive a claim form, write to the New Jersey Lawyers' Fund for Client Protection, Richard J. Hughes Justice Complex, P.O. Box 961, Trenton, New Jersey 08625-0961, or call (609) 292-8008. The form must be completed, signed and returned with copies of any proofs of the transaction. There is no filing fee. Claimants assisted in their claims by practicing attorneys receive their representation free of charge. Fund Director Daniel R. Hendi welcomes inquiries regarding the Fund's purpose and operation.
Attached is a list of the second quarter claim awards and status of each attorney under the Supreme Court discipline system.

Lebanon: Fatima's story
"I was watching television at home and there was a loud explosion," said 60-year-old Fatima*. "And the walls around me started collapsing."
A mortar had hit Fatima's neighbour's home in Homs, Syria. As soon as the explosions stopped, Fatima's family and their neighbours fled. Since then her family has been moving from one town to another in Syria in search of safety.
"We left Homs in the beginning (early 2011). From Homs, we went to Damascus, then to Banias, before coming to Lebanon," says Fatima who is now in Akkar, northern Lebanon. She fled Syria's coastal town of Banias with her two daughters and grandchildren less than two months ago when fighting in the area intensified displacing thousands of families.
"We decided to leave Syria… no place was safe," says Fatima's daughter Souhayla. "We travelled from sunrise to sunset to get to Lebanon and had to stop at many checkpoints." The journey from Banias to the Lebanese border normally takes about three to four hours.
Souhayla, 49, who left with her four children, has not heard from her husband in more than a year. "He left home for work one day and never came back," she says. She is also very worried about her older child, seven-year-old Ahmed, who has not been able to sleep or eat properly for some time now.
"His mother says that he likes to play war games and often fights with the other children," says Rana Koussa of the Danish Refugee Council (DRC), who was visiting the family with her colleague, Elsa Maarawi, to see what kind of assistance they needed.
"Most of the refugees we support are receiving psychosocial counseling"
There are nearly 200,000 registered Syrian refugees in northern Lebanon, according to the UN Refugee Agency (UNHCR). In Akkar, UNHCR is working with DRC and another international NGO, War Child, to support refugees at a local community centre. Around 200 Syrian children come to the centre for psychosocial support and remedial classes.
"Last month, we were registering about 200 families a week in Akkar. Many of them were from Al Qusayr which is not too far from here," said Rana who has worked with more than 50 families this year.
Some of the heaviest fighting in Syria took place in Al Qusayr in early June. Around 40,000 people –the vast majority of the inhabitants – fled the area fearing for their lives. Many arrived in Lebanon on foot.
"Most of the refugees we support are receiving psycho-social counseling," added Elsa Maarawi who works as a protection officer. "And many of them are women and children."
Fatima's family now lives in a room that they rent from a Lebanese family. All seven of them sleep in the small room. As new refugees, they will be receiving a standard aid package that includes mattresses, blankets and food rations, says Elsa. They will also receive counseling and will be referred to other organizations that can provide specific services or treatment that they might need.
Hana, Fatima's 21-year-old daughter, has been referred to a local NGO, the Restart Center, which provides psychiatric care for people traumatized by violence. Fatima says Hana does not speak very much since they left their home in Homs. "She is still affected by the sounds of the explosions."
The family did not receive any aid in Syria. "We were too afraid to register even though we sometimes spent many days without water or bread," said Souhayla. "We just helped each other in the community and shared with each other whatever we had."
DRC is working with UN agencies and partner organizations to reach hundreds of thousands of people inside Syria as well as in surrounding countries. Through the OCHA-managed Syria Humanitarian Assistance Response Plan, it is appealing for funding to provide emergency assistance, to deliver hygiene and sanitation projects, and to offer educational and psycho-social support for children inside Syria.

Series examines 'America's Retreat From Greatness,' Nov. 9-11
Posted November 3, 2004; 05:22 p.m.
A scholar of U.S. politics, religion and culture will present three talks on the topic "America's Retreat From Greatness" Tuesday through Thursday, Nov. 9-11, in McCosh 50.
Alan Wolfe, professor of political science and director of the Boisi Center for Religion and American Public Life at Boston College, will speak at each evening as part of the University's Public Lectures Series .
The specific titles of his three addresses are: "America's Two Visions: The Good and the Great" on Tuesday; "How Conservatives Came to Think Small" on Wednesday; and "The Liberal Retreat From Ambition" on Thursday.
Wolfe's work in recent years has focused on cultural and religious issues in American politics. His "One Nation, After All" (1999) argued that the "culture war" was largely the work of intellectuals; most Americans were not deeply divided over moral issues. His book "The Transformation of American Religion" (2003) used ethnographic data to make the case that American religion has been shaped by American culture more than the other way around.
A contributing editor of The New Republic and The Wilson Quarterly, Wolfe writes often for those publications as well as for Commonweal, The New York Times, Harper's, The Atlantic Monthly, The Washington Post and other magazines and newspapers.
His talks are designated as the Spencer Trask Lectures and will be available for viewing a week afterward.

(levalbuterol hydrochloride) Inhalation Solution
XOPENEX Inhalation Solution is a sterile, clear, colorless, preservative-free solution of the hydrochloride salt of levalbuterol, the (R)-enantiomer of the drug substance racemic albuterol. Levalbuterol HCl is a relatively selective beta2-adrenergic receptor agonist [see CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY]. The chemical name for levalbuterol HCl is (R)-α1-[[(1,1dimethylethyl)amino]methyl]-4-hydroxy-1,3-benzenedimethanol hydrochloride, and its established chemical structure is as follows:
The molecular weight of levalbuterol HCl is 275.8, and its empirical formula is C13H21NO3•HCl. It is a white to off-white, crystalline solid, with a melting point of approximately 187°C and solubility of approximately 180 mg/mL in water.
Levalbuterol HCl is the USAN modified name for (R)-albuterol HCl in the United States.
XOPENEX Inhalation Solution is supplied in unit-dose vials and requires no dilution before administration by nebulization. Each 3 mL unit-dose vial contains 0.31 mg of levalbuterol (as 0.36 mg of levalbuterol HCl) or 0.63 mg of levalbuterol (as 0.73 mg of levalbuterol HCl) or 1.25 mg of levalbuterol (as 1.44 mg of levalbuterol HCl), sodium chloride to adjust tonicity, and sulfuric acid to adjust the pH to 4.0 (3.3 to 4.5).
What are the possible side effects of levalbuterol inhalation (Xopenex, Xopenex Concentrate)?

Have a 230V to 11V transformer. Want to run it to have a spark gap.First thought creating an Sine Wave would be easy with arduino but apparently not that easy.
Quote from: zoom on Feb 14, 2013, 07:47 pmHave a 230V to 11V transformer. Want to run it to have a spark gap.First thought creating an Sine Wave would be easy with arduino but apparently not that easy.Just a couple of thoughts here... first, don't use "normal" transformers this way. They're not very good at it. If you want a spark gap, use a high-frequency ferrite core transformer, like the baby flybacks you find in plasma globes. You may get a painful shock/small burn if you're not careful, but you're quite unlikely to die unless you decide to experiment with it naked covered in salt water.... so don't do that :pAlso, don't throw a microcontroller at a project that doesn't need one. It'd be easy enough to knock together a 555-based oscillator with some big fat power transistors to make an appropriate driver circuit, and a lot less hassle if you burn something out. Google "flyback driver 555" for some ideas, it's not difficult. You can vary the output voltage by varying the duty cycle of the 555 oscillator.

Krush Adds Bennoui, Ezbiri to 67kg Tournament
- Written by Dave Walsh
Krush held a fan event in Tokyo yesterday, hosting promotional stars Yuta Kubo, Masaaki Noiri, Shota Takiya and Yasuhiro Kido, among others. However, the focus wasn't entirely on the fighters at the event, as Krush made a series of important announcements for their first two cards in 2013.
Firstly, Krush announced two more participants for their 67kg tournament, adding European fighters Abdallah Ezbiri and Houcine Bennoui. Ezbiri made his Krush debut at Krush.19 back in June, giving Yuta Kubo one of his harder fights in recent times and being the only one of Kubo's last 5 opponents to hear the final bell. Bennoui, whose brother makes his promotional debut at Krush.25 in December, is another in the long list of French fighters who have invaded Krush over the last year. He holds notable wins over Singmanee Kaewsamrit, Lumpinee Stadium champion Damien Alamos, Mosab Amrani and former Kubo opponent Charles Francois. With the inclusion of these two and the assumed inclusion of Makihira Keita, only one spot remains open. Should Krush choose to fill that spot with a Japanese fighter, Yuya Yamato would be a great final piece to a tournament that is already packed with young talent.
Krush also announced two big fights for their January 14th card, pitting 2011 Youth GP champion Masaaki Noiri against M-1 Super Lightweight champion Makoto Nishiyama. Nishiyama has made his way around the Lightweight circuit in Japan, but at 35 he still lacks a signature win, dropping fights to Hiroki Ishii, Ryuji Kajiwara, Tetsuya Yamato and Kanongsuk Weerasakreck. A win over Noiri would definitely be a career best, but at this stage in his career and on a 2-fight losing streak that dates back to over 2 years ago, Nishiyama will be a massive underdog. Also announced for the card is Krush 55kg champion Shota Takiya taking on Andy Howson. Takiya has held his place atop the 55kg division since April 2011 when he won the Krush tournament and has been an unstoppable force since. Howson made his Krush debut back in August at Krush.21 where he faced Nobuchika Terado for the ISKA Bantamweight title. Howson looked like he was on his way to winning that fight after dropping Terado twice, but Terado stormed back and dropped Howson 3 times to force a stoppage. This fight, on paper, is absolute fireworks, with Takiya being just as prone to brawling as Terado. However, Howson will have to make some adjustments as Takiya is faster and hits harder than Terado.
Moving on to the January 26th card which hosts the beginning of the 58kg tournament, the aforementioned Nobuchika Terado, as well as Yoshihiro Sato, were at the event to announce their participation for that card. Terado hinted at moving up to 58kg to compete in the tournament, though nothing is confirmed. Should Sato take (and win) a string of fights in Krush, a rematch with Yasuhiro Kido would be very possible and likely entertaining. The only announced fight for that card is a 70kg title match between champion Yasuhiro Kido and Takuro Moriya, assuming Kido doesn't suffer any lasting injuries in K-1 next month.

Note that admissions requirements will vary somewhat by program. Health sciences majors should work with their advisor to make sure they are taking the correct pre-requisite courses for the graduate programs they plan to apply to.
Admissions requirements for allopathic medical schools
Admission requirements for osteopathic medical schools
Medical schools use one of two online application services: allopathic schools use the American Medical College Application Service (AMCAS) and osteopathic schools use the American Association of Colleges of Osteopathic Medicine Application Service (AACOMAS). Students should complete one or both of these common applications, which then distribute the information to the students' chosen schools. The completed applications should be submitted by mid-summer of the year before the student plans enter medical school. For example, if you plan to enter medical school the fall after you graduate from Guilford, you should submit the applications during the summer of your junior year.
Note: As a capstone to the health science major, students take Health Science Seminar (HSCI 400), in which students learn about navigating the application process, from preparing the personal statement to interview tips, as well as discuss topics such as paying for graduate school and current issues in health care. In addition, Guilford alumni who are currently in or recently graduated from graduate programs in the health professions come back to share their experiences with you. This class should be taken the spring before you plan to apply to medical school.

Ever wonder what states are the most business friendly? Or which ones have the most transparent steps to creating a registered business?
A quick Google search will reveal a myriad of studies, articles and opinions on that very question. But Thumbtack.com, in partnership with the Kauffman Association, actually interviewed over 6,000 small business owners to see where individual state ranked in terms of business friendliness. And they uncovered some extremely interesting facts. For example, there were substantial difference between how supportive men and women thought certain states were; women entrepreneurs in Iowa were half as likely to rate their state as supportive of them as men were. And small business care almost twice as much about licensing regulations as they do about tax rates when ranking their state! (more…)

thank you guys for helping me celerate my birthday. The three days my sister, friend and me spent with you all was fantastic. Salvatore, I hope to be back soon. This holiday, althugh very short is in my top three holidays I've had over the last 15 years.
Love sorrento and Aminta to the max.
Matthew Rees and Zoe Stacey
Too everyone at the Aminta.
Me and partner Zoe returned home to Wales yesterday from staying with you at the Aminta for 3 days. I would just like to say it was a fantastic experience made even better by the lovely, kind staff of the hotel.
It was my 5th time at the Aminta and my first time back in 15 years!! It is has a special place in my heart as my grandfather used to take me here as a bambino and as my grandfather passed away 1 year ago this month it was very emotional and a unique experience returning to this hotel.
It was also great to see so many of the same staff still working here after so many years.
A special thanks to gennaro and the lovely ladies at the front desk for helping us out with our boarding passes and to the bar staff, waiters and the bus driver who were all fantastic.
Thank you again and we hope to return much sooner this time.
Best regards
Matthew Rees and Zoe Stacey
Sarah Wightman
Thank you for a fantastic stay, 19 years after our last visit and now with teenage sons in tow.We all loved the vast variety of food available at breakfast the coffee was the best I have ever tasted!!Everyone from the receptionists to the maids were helpful and polite, the receptionist gave us some fantastic guidance when visiting Amalfi and Vesuvius which saved us both time and money!!What would make the hotel absolutely perfect would be a buffet dinner as we found the portion sizes huge and the lack of choice on Gala evenings and Neopolitan Evening too restrictive. Apart from that one niggle everything perfect we enjoyed some lovely lunches on the terrace too.
Thank you ! thank you ! thank you ! for such an enjoyable stay. The hotel was superb and the staff are first class.
Bravo Aminta !
Mrs Alison Buckle, Paul & Lewis
Dear Rossella , VIctoria, Lauren and all the concierge team at Aminta
Good morning
We have just returned from your lovely hotel after a seven day visit in room 217 I'm not really a person that does trip advisor reviews, so would like to thank you all personally for a wonderful time
You really all work well as a team to make it as pleasant a stay as possible for your guests and we really appreciated it.
I was a bit apprehensive and tired on arrival, regarding our room overlooking a busy road, but once door is shut at night I was not at all disturbed.
The bed was also very comfortable, which is also difficult to get when travelling in Europe.
The restaurant was our biggest treat, as I work and run a family at home, being cooked and served such wonderful food by such lovely staff made our holiday even more enjoyable.
All of the hotel members of staff, including the hardworking chefs and cleaners behind the scenes made our stay a memorable one. And the pleasant driver of the shuttle bus.
Thank you
We realise it's difficult to please everyone, and some have much higher expectations than others, maybe more affluent and well travelled?? Or just never happy !
But for ourselves, and I'm quite fussy, I love Italy and I love the Italian people We visited because Sorrento was my parents favourite place, and my mother recently passed away, and my grief has been at times overwhelming.
So visiting Grand Aminta was a special week, involving memories, showing my son his grandmothers favourite places, and myself and husbands anniversary. Which happened to be on a Gala night
Thank you for making it special
Hope to return one day
Many thanks

We also meet some nice people at the hotel. The Hotel has some wonderful views it has everything you want on holiday great hotel ,food and weather .

Wow, what an amazing week we have been treated to at the Aminta! We were there the last week in May and it was our 9th stay at the hotel. We were welcomed back so warmly and were made to feel relaxed from the moment we walked into reception. Having arrived late in the evening we were allowed to settle in to our favourite room in which we found a beautiful bouquet of flowers, a selection of fruit and a complimentary bottle of wine. A delicious platter of cold food had been put aside for us in the dining room as well, despite our late arrival. All such lovely touches.
The Aminta and Sorrento is our favourite holiday destination in the world! It's elevated position, away from the hustle and bustle of the town itself, provides a wonderful viewpoint over Sorrento itself and across the bay of Naples to Vesuvius and the Isles of Capri & Ischia. Simply breath taking. I could sit all day & night on our balcony taking in the views. The views can also be taken in from the terrace where you can relax with a coffee, have lunch or sip a cocktail on an evening. Seeing the sunset over Capri is not to be missed. We normally visit places like Pompeii, Vesuvius, Capri, etc but this holiday we just wanted to relax and did so by chilling out around the pool which is lovely and clean with the added bonus of now being heated.
The food served in the impressive dining room at breakfast time and in the evening are beautifully presented and mouth wateringly tasty. There is a huge variety of food at breakfast time, including hot and cold options. We stayed on a half board basis so in the evening there are around 5 or 6 choices of starter and main course with a selection of desserts to finish with. There is an a la carte option too and I noticed that the restaurant currently sits at no.1 on Trip advisor in its own right. I am not surprised. We often had our lunch on the terrace at the hotel, the buffalo mozzarella cheese with tomatoes and the Parma Ham & Melon options were just delicious and where better to enjoy them than on the terrace while looking out across the sea to Vesuvius.
There is a regular courtesy bus service to take you down into Sorrento and to bring you back again but the walk down into Sorrento only takes about 15 minutes and you get some lovely views on the way down. There are lots of great shops, bars, cafes and restaurants in Sorrento and it's a great base to do lots of sightseeing. There are also lots of nice walks that take you to Roman ruins and secluded little bays and coves where you can swim in the lovely clear sea. Ask at reception how to get to Regina Giovanna, a gorgeous hidden lagoon where you can swim through the archway in the rocks and out into the bay of Naples. You won't be disappointed.
What really sets this hotel aside from any other that we have visited and what makes us want to keep coming back are the people that work at the hotel. They are the heartbeat of the hotel and I have yet to find staff anywhere else that come close to matching the levels that are reached at the Aminta. They are consistently wonderful. They clearly take great pride in their work and are professional but at the same time are so polite & friendly. They set the bar very high and never fall below it. I will start by mentioning the bar staff, Tony, Giuseppe & Francesco who were all very busy but still took time out to talk to my 9 year old son, Thomas, who could often be seen sitting at the bar chatting to them. They were all very patient, chatting to him in-between preparing and serving drinks. They really contributed to making Thomas's holiday such an enjoyable experience so a massive thank you to them.
The dining room staff, led by Michele, were so attentive and polite. Nothing was too much trouble for them. All of the waiters were so good so it is difficult to single out individuals but Thomas particularly liked Marco who gave him plenty of high fives, especially when Thomas had his Napoli track suit on, his new 2nd favourite football team! It was lovely to see some members of staff who have been there since our first visit back in 2002, particularly Lella on reception and Pietro and Michele in the dining room who greeted us like old friends, which I suppose we are after all our stays at the Aminta.
All the people who work at the reception, the bar staff, the restaurant staff, right down to the porters, the cleaners and pool maintenance staff, they are all fantastic and a credit to the owner, Gianfranco. If they say they'll do something they do it, you never have to ask twice. I contacted Gianfranco a few weeks before our holiday and asked if there was any chance that he could arrange to re-create the meal that we had at the Aminta for our wedding reception as it was going to be our 10th wedding anniversary during our stay. And sure enough, on the date in question my wife and I were treated to the most wonderful meal, accompanied by a bottle of champagne and specially made wedding anniversary cake.
I would like to thank Gianfranco and Christina for their amazing hospitality and extend our gratitude to everyone who works at the Aminta who helped to make our holiday so special. You are all fantastic and hold a special place in our hearts. We are already planning our next visit and hope to see you all again next year
Ciao, Phil, Lynn & Thomas

Dear Hotel Aminta
We have just returned to London after a few wonderful days in your hotel.
Our stay with you was such an enormous pleasure for us, that we wanted to write and say thank you. Thank you to the kindness of the staff - the reception, all the waiters in the restaurant, the chamber maids. We cannot single any individual out for special mention because you were ALL friendly, courteous, helpful.......a real pleasure. Thank you too for the room upgrade, the spumante, the basket of fruit.
As we were loading the car to leave, a member of your staff told us that wonderful months to be in Sorrento were September and October. Well, perhaps we will come again! Who knows!
With many, many thanks
Alan and Ksenija Wilding

Good evening,
We have just returned home from our amazing recent break at your hotel. I wanted to write to thank you all again for making our trip so special.
Your hotel is immaculate and every member of staff was welcoming. The food was fantastic and varied, and the waiting staff very attentive.
We were very touched on our final night when my husband's birthday cake appeared.
You were all very thoughtful, and we very much appreciated your generous room upgrade, as did our children! Our little girl, Norah cried when we had to leave!
Thank you again to you all - you are all a credit to yourselves.
Kind regards,
Dave and Nina Tittle

We left a week ago (30th October) and I have been meaning to thank you for a really enjoyable stay at Grand Hotel Aminta, our base for exploring Pompeii and Ercolano.
Thank you for responding to my request, prior to our arrival, for the bedding to be adapted to our requirements. Your arrangement proved ideal; we were very comfortable during our time at the hotel.
Additionally, we thought your hotel was beautiful and found the staff to be most friendly and welcoming. The views from the hotel in its serene setting are really exceptional and the service throughout our stay was both very efficient and friendly.
In my opinion the restaurant also lives up to its many glowing reviews, serving exquisitely presented and carefully prepared dishes: the best I have experienced in Italy.
Thank you again for a wonderful time at your well run hotel, which I am thoroughly recommending to people of my acquaintance.
Kindest regards
Lin Aldridge

By Patsy R. Brumfield/NEMS Daily Journal
BOONEVILLE – Attorney Robert "Bo" Burress' lawsuit against former associate Joey Langston was dismissed without any payout.
An agreed court order from circuit court in Prentiss County shows the lawsuit's dismissal – not settlement – with neither Burress nor Langston acknowledging "any liability" in the case.
Burress, who once practiced with Langston, sued him in late 2011 claiming Langston and his Booneville-based law firm failed to pay him what he expected for his part in their winning a $20.8 million federal court jury award in 2005.
At the time, court personnel said the verdict was the largest in the state's federal court history.
It's widely believed that fees to Langston and his firm were in the neighborhood of $10 million from the total award.
Burress left the Langston firm in February 2008.
The court record shows a notice to ask Burress questions under oath last November.
Langston's side insisted Burress had no written agreement concerning his efforts in the lawsuit and worked under successive one-year contracts.
Special judge William F. Coleman was appointed to preside over the Burress-Langston case after all the district's judges removed themselves from participation.
Langston cannot practice law anymore because of his disbarment for his 2008 federal guilty plea in a scheme to improperly influence then-Hinds County Circuit Judge Bobby DeLaughter, presiding over a lawsuit against Oxford's Richard "Dickie" Scruggs and others.
Although Langston served prison time, his plea deal protected his financial interests, including his share in the record verdict.

FASHION for your HEALTH | your happiness and your look | Not Enough Sun in Your Life? Try Wearing it.
In her "Notes on Nursing: What It Is and What It Is Not," English nurse Florence Nightingale wrote that light – preferably sunlight – plays an essential role in the process of getting well. She also said that those of us who are ailing "should be able to see … sky and sunlight," as she observed that most patients tended to lie with their faces turned towards the light, much in the way that "plants always make their way to the light."
This is why doctors are always telling us to make sure we get enough Vitamin D. Among its many purported health benefits, it is understood that the Vitamin D our body produces when our skin is exposed even to just a little bit of sunshine can actually make us feel better emotionally. Which means it can literally and figuratively brighten our day! That's kind of awesome.
So, now that we know that sunlight is pretty important for our general well-being, it seems like it should be easy enough to get our hands on it – err, faces in it – right? Just step into the light for 10-15 minutes and ta-da, you've got yourself enough rays for the day (well, health-wise; certainly not fun-wise).
Unfortunately, while at work, many of us do not have the privilege of being seated near south-facing windows, and still others have the misfortune of being caged inside of too-high cubicle walls, seemingly fated never to experience the touch and feel of daylight between the hours of 9am to 6pm. (Which reminds me – when did the acceptable amount of hours in a typical work day go from 9 – 5 to 9 – 6? When and WHY did this change? Yes, I am asking you, The Man.)
Anyway… so what are we to do if we can't spend some time outside, soaking up those warm winter rays?
Well, if you really don't have any time at all to do it, then a) you're being seriously overworked, and b) you might want to check with your doctor about alternative ways to get your daily dose – 'cause, for real, it's important.
Beyond that, I've got some fashion advice: how about a fun, alternative way for you to get some light in your life? While it won't result in the production of Vitamin D, it will give you a seriously useful boost of confidence that should last well beyond sunset. What is it? Well, unless you're interested in waking up at dawn to catch a few minutes of sunbeam satisfaction before you head off to work, I suggest dawning some glam threads that'll serve to brighten your mood… not to mention many of those around you! I love it when I see someone who has really put some effort into her look… especially if it's on a day when I HAVEN'T! :)
So, what to wear? Today, I've gathered up a healthy mix of fun, shimmering, soft, chic and romantic looks for the flashion-obsessed bride! Any sparkle or glow in your get-up will do; from a dress with lots of glitz, to a clutch that catches some serious light, to earrings that illuminate your immediate surroundings. Whether you're into a frock with some flash, or you prefer a soft, chic look that leaves the razzle-dazzle to a super accessory, it doesn't matter… when you arrive at your bachelorette party in any one of these get-ups, you'll look and feel hotter than each and every one of those girls on stage at your future hubby's bach… I mean, any of those girls in their winter coats working the ski lifts at the lodge. Because that's where men go for bachelor parties; they go to ski lodges, and then they turn in early. ;)

Who do the gardai really work for?
ireland / britain | repression / prisoners | opinion / analysis Wednesday December 20, 2006 19:38 by WS94 - WSM
A consortium of Shell, Statoil, and Marathon do a deal with the government allowing them exclusive exploitation rights to the Corrib gas field, off Mayo. Not only that, but they are allowed to write off their costs against taxes, meaning that the whole project is being funded by the PAYE taxpayer, who will receive nothing, not even lower gas prices. It may sound a bit iffy but there is no garda investigation into possible bribery or corruption.
The locals in Rossport have a problem with a high-pressure gas pipeline going close to their homes, and want the gas refined offshore instead. That shouldnt be a problem, Shell can well afford it, last year they made a profit of 2.39 million every single hour.

Irish police - "Give me your name and address or Ill rape you" 23:10 Tue 05 Apr 0 comments
Give me your name and address or I'll rape you" - the words of a Garda Sgt as he discussed with at least two other Gardai how they were going to interrogate one of two female Shell to Sea campaigners they had arrested and who were being brought to Belmullet Garda station. Just second earlier while they were discussing how to interrogate the women one Garda suggested they threaten her with deportation. The Sgt responds with the addition of the rape threat which he repeats before another so far unidentified Garda chimes in with "hold it there, give me your name and address there, I'll rape you" prompting the Sgt to repeat it one last time as "or I'll definitely rape you."

Irish police investigation of police rape threat turns into coverup Aug 03 0 comments
Last Thursday the Garda Síochána Ombudsman Commission released an interim report on the Garda rape-threat tape recordings that were revealed last April. GSOC is the official state body to investigate complaints against the police force of southern Ireland (Garda). The GSOC report contains a major error that suggests GSOC are the source of repeated attempts to spin the story in the media as somehow being the fault of the women the Garda were recorded discussing threatening to rape. The timing of the release of the report was also suspect, coming in the week Shell resumed construction and the day before a national day of action in Erris durig which four Shell to Sea campaigners were injured by Garda and/or private security violence. Such was the level of spin applied that some media made the mistake of leading with the news that the Garda had been cleared of something no-one had ever accused them of - directly threatening the two women with rape.
Ireland: Support Demands Of Maghaberry Prisoners For Their Rights And Dignity To Be Respected Jul 22 0 comments
Around 30 Republican prisoners continue to engage in a dirty protest in Maghaberry prison over the failure of the Northern Ireland Administration and the Prison Officers Association to implement a facilitated agreement reached between all parties last August. This is part of a wider criminalisation policy to punish, brutalize and isolate prisoners which includes regular beatings and strip-searching - which remains the outstanding issue to be resolved. Similarly to the 1980/81 prison struggles, the prisoners are simply asking for their rights and dignity to be respected.
