Community Partner Grants
Building Community through Grants
The Community Partners Program is a beneficiary program open to non-profit organizations in the Bay Area. San Francisco Pride has been able to grant nearly $2 million dollars since 1997 to our beneficiaries thanks to beverage purchases and donations made at our event gates. Community organizations provide Pride with volunteers the weekend of the event, and, in return, Pride awards the organizations with a grant based on agreements appropriate for the areas in which volunteers are provided, be it donations or beverage booths.
San Francisco Pride's Community Partners Program is one of the many ways in which Pride is working to strengthen our communities. By partnering with community organizations, San Francisco Pride is building a strong future for the event while simultaneously investing in our community.
Donate at the Gate
Donate the minimum request of $5 at the entrance gates of the SF Pride Celebration to earn yourself a dollar discount off beverage purchases for that day of the event. Not only is your donation going to help the more than 35 local non-profit organizations staffing the gates, but a portion of your beverage purchase also helps support another 30-plus non-profits working the beverage booths.
Take a Stand for Pride:
Donate $5 at the Gates
Gate donations support more than 40+ local nonprofits
Your support is vital not only in helping to keep San Francisco Pride free and open to people of all economic backgrounds, but your donation also helps strengthen community organizations working on issues related to the LGBT community, breast cancer, and HIV/AIDS.
Background Information
Broadly speaking, the opportunities for partnering with Pride fall into three categories: Beverage Partners, Donations Partners, and Accessibility Partners. Organizations who work with the Beverage Program will provide volunteers to operate beverage booths (beer, liquor, wine, water, and soda) at the event. Those working with the Donations Program will provide volunteers to collect donations at the front gates as people enter the celebration site and along the parade route. Finally, Accessibility Partners work with Pride to ensure the proper management of Deaf & Hard-of-Hearing spaces, our wheelchair-accessible Grandstands as well as other areas of the event with added accessibility features. Positions in the accessibility side of the Community Partners Program are limited.

Hey Beachhead, thanks for the clan op, BUT...
Like (4)
While I do appreciate the addition of a clan op on 3/27 (which also happened to be my birthday), I have to wonder...
If you can post a clan op with just over 24 hours notice, and it goes off without a hitch and verification takes less than an hour...
Or at least multiple times a week. There are no prizes to worry about. Your verification process works. Post more clan ops. Stop wasting your time with the Lone Wolf ops and Events. No one cares about those. We want clan ops and CLAN CHALLENGES (As we were promised... and I'm sticking up here for the smart ones who didn't pay $50 for ELITE). You cannot tell me that posting and having a clan op caused that great a strain on the system compared to a Lone Wolf event that isn't WHAT PEOPLE PAID FOR. Clan ops are where you got us slapping down $50. We want them. And we want a lot of them. There should not be twenty times as many Lone Wolf ops as clan ops.
I don't care if you have a warehouse full of CoD swag that you can't sell and have to give away. (I mean, seriously, your prizes for the most part suck. Why bother with all that? We don't care about the prizes!) I understand if you have a freaking Jeep or a trip to Hawaii or some such. Those are cool prizes and worth the effort. But stop trying to pawn a damn keychain or flash drive on us as a "prize." You're wasting precious time you could be spending working on clan ops (and CHALLENGES). I know that you have a tough job, and we don't make it easier with our complaints. But just realize that we've already PAID you for this service, so it is our God-given right to complain about something we paid for if it isn't up to snuff. And it isn't. Your PR department might as well be made of blind, deaf mutes for all the solid information we get from you. This is NOT customer service in any way. Listen to us, and maybe the complaints and all will stop. (Maybe not... I'm Irish descent and I complain about everything.)
But do us, as a gaming community, and yourselves as developers a favor. Post clan ops regularly (meaning more than once a week), and vary the times (for our European and Asian gaming brethren) and OPEN CLAN CHALLENGES for God's sake. (I'm not going to mention the whole "league" thing you dodos advertised... WTF was your PR department thinking. Talk about checks your butts can't cash... Sheesh.) We deserve to get 100% of what you advertised to get our money. We're tired of the excuses. We're sick of the lack of solid information from you. We're ready for the next game (that isn't CoD). Why? Because you've not delivered on your promises. But I believe you can fix it. You just need to get on the damn ball. NOW.
Well said.... 100% agree!
Agree with most but,,I think you answered your own Question.This one seemed to go off without a hitch..So lets hope they got it right now and we will get more and more often.
It's been a real pain in the @ss being in the beta twice but if and when they get it right,it just may be worth it.
There are some of us that enjoy the lonewolf ops too, just wish we could have a Hardcore or 2.
Wanna know why it went so well? Over 20,000 clans signed up for the first weekend of clan operations. The op last night had a little over 8,000.
Thats because only America could participate in it; EU had one earlier today, which barely anyone even noticed was added, since it went up just before it began.
There is the reason there were less people enlisted; because they appear to be separating regions to make it easier for them to check, and to make it quicker to get rewards out.
It's easier for them to test the new verification system with less players
I think it was a test type thing and they will roll it out full time if it all goes through okk
100% agree
I agree completely , they also need to start including HARDCORE op's in there as well. There has been MAYBE 7 HC op's since the launch but well over 50 Core op's. It sucks that if you want to participate in anything on elite you HAVE to play Core game modes.
this messg was brought to you by the letter's B L S
thank you
prez of Black Label
Elite is a fail. nuff said. Stat tracking was better in Blops imo.

Cellar/Tasting Notes RP: "Inky/black-colored with a classic Pauillac perfume of licorice, black currant liqueur, graphite, cedar, and spice box, it is full-bodied, with magnificent concentration, formidable tannins, and an Arnold Schwartzenegger-like structure (when he was 25 years younger).

Cellar/Tasting Notes "Another celestial effort from Paul Pontallier and Corinne Mentzelopoulus, the 2005 Margaux, a blend of 85% Cabernet Sauvignon and 15% Merlot, boasts a dense opaque blue/purple color as well as an extraordinary bouquet of spring flowers, blueberries, black raspberries, creme de cassis, licorice,..
Cellar/Tasting Notes "Unquestionably the greatest Beausejour-Duffau since the 1990, this property has made a strong comeback under the brilliant management of Nicolas Thienpont and Stephane Derenoncourt. One of St.-Emilion's greatest terroirs, it has underperformed in most vintages, although it generally produces very..
Cellar/Tasting Notes "St.-Emilion's smallest vineyard produces so little wine (600 or so cases) that it is virtually impossible to find. This beautiful site (somewhat ghoulishly situated adjacent to St-Emilion's cemetery) produces what I have often called the 'Lafleur of St.-Emilion.' Classic notes of crushed rocks,..
Cellar/Tasting Notes The 2007 La Mission Haut Brion, a candidate for wine of the vintage, exhibits a dense ruby/purple hue along with notes of melted licorice, blueberries, cassis, burning embers, and charcoal, sweet tannin, medium to full body, a fleshy mouthfeel, and an endearing succulence as well as lushness...
Cellar/Tasting Notes "This estateâs finest effort - ever, the 2005 Malescot St.-Exupery should be sought out by readers looking for intensity combined with superb richness, fascinating elegance, and a surreal concoction of blue and red fruits, a silky texture, and a delicate yet powerful wine that builds..
Cellar/Tasting Notes One of the all-time great Palmers... An opaque blue/black color suggests a wine with thrilling levels of concentration and intensity, and That's exactly what a taster gets.
Cellar/Tasting Notes "One of the greatest young wines I have ever tasted, the monumental 2009 Cos dEstournel has lived up to its pre-bottling potential. A remarkable effort from winemaking guru Jean-Guillaume Prats and owner Michel Reybier, this blend of 65% Cabernet Sauvignon and the rest Merlot (33%) and a touch of..
Cellar/Tasting Notes "This is a fabulous wine, with that tell-tale, dense, inky blue color that Angelus always seems to achieve. It displays an extraordinary nose of acacia flowers (or is it violets?) intermixed with blueberry liqueur, black raspberries, cassis, licorice, incense, and graphite. Full-bodied, viscous,..
Cellar/Tasting Notes "A massive wine that is clearly of first-growth quality in this vintage, ... A broodingly dense, thick, unctuously textured, inky/plum/garnet/purple color offers up scents of beef blood, steak tartare, cassis, herbs, tobacco, and underbrush.

Camden boys basketball improves playoff hopes with win over Vernon-Verona-Sherrill
VERONA — Entering Friday's game against Vernon-Verona-Sherrill with a 5-8 mark, Camden's boys basketball team was hoping for a win to better its chance of making the playoffs this year.
Mission accomplished.
Ryan McCarthy's play in the third period helped coach Eric Bird's Blue Devils pull away and strong defense in the fourth helped Camden to a 49-35 win.
McCarthy hit a three to open Camden's scoring in the third then added two foul shots. He repeated the sequence at the end of the quarter and Camden led 34-24 with eight minutes to go in the low-scoring affair. Great defense by the visitors kept VVS from getting any closer than eight points the rest of the game.
Camden was so stingy in the second half - and VVS so cold shooting from the field - that the hosts managed only two field goals until Nick Metzger hit a three with 59 seconds to go. Dalton Cousin had the other field goals for VVS to that point in the second half, and four foul shots, but not much else went right for coach Bob Esposito's team.
It did at the start as Bud Bowers hit a three and Casey Jones made a shot for a 5-2 lead. Camden took over from there until a late run in the second quarter got VVS even at 19-19. Austin Mitchell, Bowers and Cousin had the baskets for VVS (1-13) in the run but Marc Snow and McCarthy scored before the half ended.
McCarthy finished with 26 points and Jimmy Henry added 11 to lead the winners while Cousin had 15 for VVS.
Camden 11 12 11 15 - 49
Camden (6-8): Jimmy Henry 11, Ryan McCarthy 26, Marc Snow 9, Evan Kessler 1, Ryan Jones 2. Continued...
VVS (1-13): Colby Mason 2, Nick Metzger 6, Dalton Cousin 15, Matt McCoy 2, Bud Bowers 6, Casey Jones 2, Austin Mitchell 2.

Led Zeppelin, Iron Maiden and Queen band members perform at charity rock show
Alice Cooper and Deep Purple's Ian Paice also take to the stage at the annual Sunflower Jam bash
Led Zeppelin bassist John Paul Jones, Iron Maiden frontman Bruce Dickinson and Queen guitarist Brian May all performed at a charity rock concert in London September 16.
Deep Purple drummer Ian Paice also played at the Sunflower Jam 2012, whose proceeds went to the cancer charity of the same name founded by his wife Jacky. The event, held at the Royal Albert Hall, also featured musical contributions from Alice Cooper, Whitesnake guitarist Micky Moody and Level 42 singer Mark King.
After several acoustic numbers from May and West End star Kerry Ellis, and a cover of Guns N' Roses' 'November Rain' by folk singer Sandi Thom, Dickinson took to the stage to sing Thin Lizzy's 'Emerald' and The Who's 'Behind Blue Eyes'. You can watch the latter performance at the bottom of the page.
Later, Jones, May and Paice all teamed up for a rendition of Deep Purple's 'Black Night', while May also played guitar during Cooper's performance of 'School's Out'. The entire line-up came together at the end for an ensemble romp through Deep Purple's 'Smoke On The Water'.

- I adore my standup desk from Relax the Back! Review by David
Quality Value I recently purchased the electric standup desk and can't begin to tell you how happy I am with it. It is the best purchase I've made in a decade! Definitely would recommend to anyone who sits at a desk.
(Posted on 1/13/13)
- Best thing that has ever been given to me Review by I Love well built expensive stuff
Value Quality Being able to sit when I want to sit and stand and work when my fanny has had enough is pure bliss. This desk has had a huge impact on the quality of my work life. The price is enough to choke a horse so it is a darn good thing I am not much into shoes or clothes because expensive furniture that functions well, is well built and beautiful to look at seems to be my main attraction. I highly recommend this product.

- Beautiful Review by Ron
Value Quality I ordered one of these sit to stand tables and it's by far the best gift I have ever given myself. I love everything about it, the fact that I can stand and work and lower it when needed is great.
The table top is made of the most beautiful cherry wood and matches my decor perfectly.(Posted on 5/22/12)
- Beautiful table Review by Ruth
Value Quality My new height adjustable table is beautiful and the attention to detail is amazing. I can only recommend it.

Value Quality Having had back pain for years I finally decided to purchase a desk that's height adjustable. It a fantastic product, I just love it.
(Posted on 4/7/12)
- Nice but not for the $ Review by Old_guy
Quality Value I love it but for what you get and still needing accessories it's WAY over priced.
(Posted on 2/16/12)
- I love this desk! Review by Dave
Value Quality I've had this desk for a couple of weeks now, and I really love it. I cannot believe how much I like to work standing up. As an attorney for the last 18 years, I've spent the majority of my time seated at a desk hunched over a keyboard or file. However, nagging low back pain following an accident caused me to search for another alternative. I was fortunate enough to "stumble" onto this desk on a visit to the Tampa Relax The Back store. I never even knew these things existed, and I never even considered this for my back issue. Now that I have it, I can't believe I ever spent my days sitting down all the time.
The desk is a little bit on the expensive side, and there are a few modifications I would've made if I were designing the desk myself. But, overall, I feel like my low back pain is really helped by being able to stand and work. I would highly recommend this desk to anyone who has back issues which are aggravated by setting or hunching over their work.(Posted on 11/5/10)

by Bill Handrin"Before you try anything else in the way of attempting to improve your results from exercise, try doing 'less' exercise; not more, less. If and when that simple point worms itself into your brain, then I have probably taught you the most important thing that you will ever learn about exercise.".......Arthur JonesLast month's seminar notes by Mr. Zak Zaklad reminded me of something I learned a few years back; movement, not exercise is the key to feeling well. I can honestly say I have never once felt better after a workout. Relieved I have finished perhaps. Pleased I did not back away from the hard work. But better? Never. Slamming a few hundred full power kicks into a heavy bag will make me feel well? Placing a crushing weight across my shoulders and squatting rock bottom will energize me? I used to jog three miles every morning and if you have ever experienced an Illinois winter you will appreciate the dedication it took. And despite visions of Rocky Balboa as I plodded along, the "benefits" of running never quite happened. Hard exercise wasn't what the doctor ordered.
by Rich Stamper
Chapter 12 - In The Beginning - Movement Movement is pretty basic to martial arts practice and often taken for granted. By movement I mean stepping from stance to stance, but I will also discuss movement within a stance. We tend to emphasize the completed stance – the posture, balance, weight distribution, being locked in, being rooted and so on. We tend to neglect the transitions from stance to stance or within a stance, and tend to view these as simply the movement required to get from one good stance to the next. When doing this we severely limit our effectiveness for practical, actual application. Most instructors teach a smooth, quick transition from stance to stance. This is good and appropriate. But then many of the instructors insist upon a fully established stance prior to executing a hit, kick or block. This becomes a sequential action and the momentum of the stance movement does not carry into the technique. This reduces the effectiveness because it uses strength only, not a combination of strength and momentum.
by Bill Handren "I asked my wife why was she crying?" She said, "I burned dinner."I said, "no problem, just open another."............George Knudsen, PipelinerWe have become a fatter nation over the last fifty years. A big reason is convenience. It is easier to pour from a box of cereal than cook a few eggs. You just open a bag of snacks, you do not prepare them. The microwave is the most used appliance in our kitchen. It heats something fast and conveniently. It is a wonder I don't glow in the dark from the microwave emissions which are constantly bombarding my kitchen. Most microwave-ready and pre-packaged foods are filled with sugar and starches. Bodybuilders have known for a hundred years that sweets and starches build bodyfat.
"You can have a life plan or a fight plan, but when the action starts, you're down to your reflexes -- your training.
If you've cheated on your training in the dark of the morning, you'll be found out under the bright lights." -- Joe Frazier, Heavyweight Boxing Champion

- Mold Basics:
- The key to mold control is moisture control.
- If mold is a problem in your home, you should clean up the mold promptly and fix the water problem.
- It is important to dry water-damaged areas and items within 24-48 hours to prevent mold growth.
Mold is part of the natural environment that we live and work in on an everyday basis. Outside, mold plays a very important role in the break down of dead organic matter. This should of course be avoided indoors. Molds reproduce by means of tiny spores; the spores are invisible to the naked eye and float through outdoor and indoor air. Mold may begin growing indoors when mold spores land on surfaces that get wet. With all the many types of mold out there, none of those will grow without exposure to water.
Can mold cause health problems?
Molds are usually not a problem indoors, unless mold spores land on a wet or damp spot and begin growing. Mold will cause health problems if it goes untreated and isn't taken care of soon enough. It can cause: Allergens ( which are produced when there is an allergic reaction to something.) Irritants and potentially toxic substances ( mycotoxins).
Inhaling and/or touching mold can cause allergic reactions in sensitive individuals. Allergic responses can be but are not limited to: hay fever-type symptoms, sneezing, runny nose, red eyes, and skin rash. Allergic reactions can be delayed or immediate. Molds can cause asthma attacks, irritating the eyes, skin, nose, throat, and lungs. The lungs are affected by breathing in the mold and the mold traveling through spores. Pregnant women need to take caution around such areas as the unborn child can also be affected by the amount of oxygen it receives. You need to consult with your doctor for specifics as to what it is right for you.
How do I get rid of the mold?
It is impossible to get rid of all mold and mold spores indoors; some mold spores will be found floating through the air and in house dust. The mold spores will not grow if moisture is not present. Indoor mold growth can and should be prevented or controlled by controlling moisture indoors. If there is mold growth in your home, you must clean up the mold and fix the water problem. If you clean up the mold, but don't fix the water problem, then, most likely, the mold problem will come back.
Mold can gradually destroy the things they grow on. You can prevent damage to your home and furnishings, save money, and avoid potential health problems by controlling moisture and eliminating mold growth.
If you already have a mold problem act quickly. Mold damages what it grows on and the longer it grows, the more damage it can cause.
Can mold hide?
You may suspect that mold is present if the building smells old or moldy, but you cannot see the source. Or if you know that there has been water damage and residents are reporting health problems. Mold be hidden in places like:
- Backside of drywall
- wallpaper or paneling
- the top side of ceiling tiles
- the underside of carpets and pads, etc.
Other possible locations of hidden mold include areas inside walls around pipes ( with leaking or condensing pipes) the surface of the walls behind furniture ( where condensation forms) inside ductwork, and in roof materials above ceiling tiles( due to roof leaks or insufficient insulation.)
Investigating hidden mold problems may be difficult and will require caution when the investigation involves disturbing potential sites of mold growth. For example, removal of wallpaper can lead to a massive release of spores if there is mold growing on the underside of the paper. If you believe that you may have a hidden mold problem, consider hiring an experienced professional.
Biocides are substances that can destroy living organisms. The use of a chemical or biocide that kills organisms such as mold ( chlorine bleach, for example) is not recommended as a routine practice during mold cleanup. There may be instances, however, when professional judgment may indicate its use ( for example, when immune-compromise individuals are present) In most cases, it is not possible or desirable to sterilize an area, a background level of mold spores will remain- these spores will not grow if the moisture problem has been resolved. If you choose to use disinfectants or biocides, always ventilate the area and exhaust the air to the outdoors. Never mix chlorine bleach solution with other cleaning solutions or detergents that contain ammonia because toxic fumes could be produced.
PLEASE NOTE: Dead mold may still cause allergic reactions in some people, so it is not enough to simply kill the mold, it must also be removed.
Who should do the cleanup?
Who should do the cleanup depends on a number of factors. One consideration is the size of the mold problem. If the moldy area is less then 10 feet most likely you can handle the problem yourself. However:
- If there has been a lot of water damage and/or mold growth covers more than 10 square feet, consult the U.S Environmental Protection Agency ( EPA) guide: Mold recommendation in schools and Commercial Buildings. Although focused on schools and commercial buildings, this document is applicable to other building types. It is available free by calling the EPA Indoor Air Quality Information Clearinghouse at (800)438-4318 or on the net at www.epa.gov/mold
-If you choose to hire a contractor ( or other professional service provider) to do clean up, make sure the contractor has experience cleaning up mold. Check references and ask the contractor to follow local guides and recommendations for removing mold.
- If you suspect that the heating/ventilation/air conditioning ( HVAC) system may be contaminated with mold ( it is part of an identified moisture problem, for instance, or there is mold near the intake to the system), consult a professional before taking any actions. DO NOT run your HVAC system if you know or suspect that is contaminated with mold- it could spread mold throughout the whole building or house.
- If the water and/ or mold damage was caused by sewage or other contaminated water, then call in a professional who has experience cleaning or fixing buildings damaged by contaminated water.
- If you have any health concerns, think you might be pregnant or are and have been in contact with mold you should seek a health professional immediately.
- If you have any doubt, call a professional before attempting clean up your self. If you have any health concerns with clean up, consult with a professional.
Bathroom Tips!
Places that are often or always damp can be hard to maintain completely free of mold. If there is some mold in the shower or elsewhere in the bathroom that seems to reappear, increasing the ventilation ( running a fan or opening a window) and cleaning more frequently will usually prevent mold from recurring, or at least keep the mold to a minimum.
( these tips shared in this section are at home tips. Professional cleaners may use techniques not covered. Mold can also leave cosmetic damage and staining so it may not be possible to clean an item and restore it to its original appearance. )
- Fix plumbing and leaks and other water issues as soon as possible. Dry all items completely.
- Scrub mold off of hard surfaces with detergent and water, and dry off completely.
- Absorbent or porous materials, such as ceiling tiles and carpet, may have to be thrown away if they become moldy. Mold can grow on or fill in the empty spaces and crevices of porous materials, so mold can be difficult or impossible to remove completely.
- Avoiding exposing yourself or others to mold.
- Do not paint or caulk moldy surfaces. Clean up the mold and dry the surfaces before painting. Paint applied over moldy surfaces is likely to peel.
-If you are unsure of how to clean an item, or if the item is expensive or of sentimental value, you may wish to consult a specialist. Furniture repair, restoration, painting, art restoration and conservation, carpet and rug cleaning, water damage, and fire or water restoration are commonly listed in phone books or ask for a local neighborhood referral. Be sure to ask and check references. Look for specialist who are affiliated with the subject at hand.
Moisture prevention and controlling the mold.
When water leaks or spills occur indoors- ACT QUICKLY!! If wet or damp materials or areas are dried 24-48 hours after a leak or spill happens, in most cases mold will not grow.
- Clean and repair roof gutters regularly.
- Make sure the ground slopes away from the building foundation, so that water does not enter or collect around the foundation.
- Keep air conditioning drip pans clean and the drain lines unobstructed and flowing properly.
- Keep indoor humidity low. If possible, keep indoor humidity below 60% ( ideally between 30 and 50 percent) relative humidity. Relative humidity can be measured with a moisture or humidity meter, a small, inexpensive ( $10-$50) instrument available at many hardware stores.
- Reducing humidity: Vent appliances that produce moisture, such as clothes dryers, stoves, and kerosene heaters to the outside where possible. ( Combustion appliances such as stoves and kerosene heaters produce water vapor and will increase the humidity unless vented to the outside.) Use air conditioners and/or De-humidifiers when needed. Run the bathroom fan or open the window when showering. Use the exhaust fans or open windows whenever cooking, running the dishwasher or dishwasher, etc.
- Actions that will help prevent condensation:Reduce the humidity ( see the preceding page). Increase ventilation or air movement by opening doors and/or windows, when practical. Use fans as needed. Cover cold surfaces, such as cold water pipes, with insulation. Increase air temperature.

Foolproof Ice Cream
Author Notes: After making a number of ice cream recipes that did not turn out well, I dug into the "science" of making ice cream at home. Eventually I happened upon a PDF of the introduction to "How to Make Ice Cream," an out-of-print book published by The Cook's Illustrated Library, and put together this recipe from what it taught me. The recipe below is for vanilla, but you can adapt it to make lots of different flavors. - Tammy - Tammy
Food52 Review: When we first read Tammy's recipe, we were slightly intimidated by the use of temperatures, as we tend to rely on sight and feel when it comes to making ice cream. When the method worked perfectly, we realized that these details are really helpful for people who don't have much experience with custards. Tammy's recipe makes a perfect, fragrant and not-too-sweet vanilla ice cream, and she gives you the option to add your own flavors in the last step. After tasting the vanilla, we decided to play around, by folding in 1/ 3 teaspoon strong peppermint extract (we used Boyajian), 10 finely chopped spearmint leaves and 6 ounces finely chopped dark chocolate. It was some of the best mint chocolate chip ice cream we've ever had. - A&M
Serves about 1 1/4 quarts
- 4 egg yolks
- 1.5 cups heavy cream
- 1.5 cups whole milk
- 3/4 cups sugar
- 1 vanilla bean
- Heat milk and cream in a small saucepan with some sugar to 175 degrees. (Use a candy thermometer!)
- Meanwhile, beat the yolks with the remaining sugar at least 2 min. with an electric mixer or 4 min. with a whisk until pale yellow.
- Slowly pour a small amount of the heated milk-cream-sugar mixture into the egg yolks, whisking constantly as you pour.
- Whisk the thinned egg yolks back into the saucepan containing the remaining milk-cream-sugar.
- Scrape the insides of the vanilla bean into the saucepan.
- Heat to 180 degrees.
- Pour the cooked custard through a fine mesh strainer into a container.

Great basic ice cream recipe. Another one I've tried uses 2 cups cream and 1 cup whole milk. I made it yesterday afternoon. It was great to use a little less cream in this one. I added chocolate nibs to some of the ice cream and used the bulk of the recipe for serving with a raspberry pie. Although the ice cream was delicious last night, it was much better in the morning (yes, for breakfast) than last night, as the flavors had more time to intensify and the texture was firmer.

I made this ice cream last week, it was delicious. Definitely creamy. I served it with a cherry rhubarb sauce that was just slightly sweetened. Absolutely a keeper. Thank you!

I've never made ice cream before so I definitely appreciate the temperatures included in the instructions... plus, now I want to go out and buy gelato dishes and spoons! Great recipe.

I LOVE making ice cream and this recipe is spot-on. It would be great on it's own, or as a base for other flavors. My current favorites are peach ice-cream and peppermint bark (2 v. different flavors!)

Peppermint bark! So much better than mint choc. chip everyone's used to!
How do you make your peach? I find whenever I add fruit to this base, the end result is disappointingly icy.

If you're serving stuffing, you may be tempted to fall back on supermarket stuffing. Must you really sacrifice quality for convenience?
Supermarket stuffing offers unbelievable ease, especially if you have to make a large quantity, but it isn't nearly as good as homemade.
We wanted to make ample stuffing to serve 16 (or more).
Our first decision was to select the right bread. We liked cornbread because it's very sturdy, but not tough or sweet.
We also liked the density and slight sweetness of high-quality white sandwich bread. Regardless of the bread, drying
the bread before making stuffing was crucial for texture and flavor. Cornbread stuffing especially can get mushy and
lose its structure if the bread isn't sufficiently dried. We found that the two breads did differ in required amounts. The
amount of cornbread seemed skimpy compared to regular bread, but cornbread didn't shrink as much as regular
bread when it dried, and it blew up to nearly twice its size as it soaked up the liquid before cooking. Cooking the
stuffing alongside—not in—the bird made the stuffing easy. In fact, we could assemble the stuffing 24 hours ahead
of time, refrigerate it, and just let it stand for 30 minutes before baking.

PPVPWWH Do casino managers have license to abuse? MN Supreme Court to rule on jurisdiction in Prescott/Little Six case By Gary Blair On Feb. 5, the Minnesota Supreme Court heard arguments in a case which could affect the way Indian Tribes operate casinos in Minnesota. At issue is the sovereign immunity defense that allows tribes special protection from lawsuits. The hearing was held at the University of Minnesota Law School and was attended by more one hundred and fifty students. The case challenges the reservation's right to extend immunity to casinos through the use of independent corporations set up to do business as a foreign company under Minnesota state law. The lawsuit involves a former Mystic Lake Casino guard, Jill Gavle, who sued Little Six, Inc. and Leonard Prescott, the gaming corporation's former boss. The lawsuit accuses Prescott of sexual harassment, gender discrimination, pregnancy discrimination, defamation and battery. Gavle was 25 years old at the time of alleged incidents. Prescott was reported to be in his late forties. In response to the suit, the Shakopee Mdewakanton Sioux Community invoked the sovereign immunity defense, claiming Little Six, Inc., the operator ofthe casino, has the same protection from lawsuits as the tribe. Craig Greenberg, attorney for Gavlel, told the high court, "By filing an application with the Secretary of State as a foreign corporation doing business in Minnesota, they irrevocably consented to service of process (to be sued) and agreed to be bound by Minnesota law." He also told the court that most of the mistreatment his client received occurred off the reservation where the tribe doesn't have immunity. "The corporation has its offices off the reservation and my client was hired off the reservation," he said. "The corporation that operates the casino is separate from the reservation and it doesn't have the same immunity. It's the same as any Abuse cont'd on 3 Finngate postponed due to medical reasons of one of the indictees, new date scheduled for March 4,1996. MN Suprm.

In what could establish a state precedent on the issue, the court will rule within 90 days of the Jan. 16 oral arguments whether to overturn a district court conviction of an Anishinabe woman for trespassing on her own reservation. Michelle LaRose appealed her Aug. 14 conviction in Cass County on charges of illegally occupying an abandoned tribal home on the Leech Lake Reservation. LaRose argued in the appeal, filed by attorney Jay Sommer, that the state has no jurisdiction to regulate the use of trust property, much less to prosecute LaRose criminally for exercising her communal property rights as a Leech Lake member. "What distinguishes the LaRose case from other cases involving state criminal jurisdiction over Indians on their Reservations is the property rights issue. The property issue goes to the core of Indian life and history," the appeal states. "Cass County is, by proxy, attempting to regulate Indian housing in Indian country." The state simply—and simplistically—argues that trespassing is a criminal offense, and thus subject to state Public Law 280 jurisdiction.

Copyright, Native American Press, 1996 Suit brings tribal immunity before high court Sexual harassment case challenges sovereignty of Dakota casino After Jill Gavle, 27, sued Little Six Minnesota: Do relatively untested By Pat Doyle Star Tribune Staff Writer In a rare inquiry with broad ramifications for tribal casinos and the public, the Minnesota Supreme Court heard a sexual harassment case Monday that tests the power of tribes to declare themselves immune from lawsuits. The case involves a former guard at Mystic Lake Casino in Prior Lake who said her ex-boss, Leonard Prescott, coerced her to have sex,t»eat her and fired her when she told hirk she was pregnant with his baby. Inc., which operates Mystic Lake, she ran into a legal roadblock. The state Court of Appeals ruled that Little Six is immune from suit because its owner, the Shakopee Mdewakanton Dakota Community, is a sovereign government. Now the Supreme Court will consider whether Little Six shares the immunity enjoyed by the tribal government or whether it waived immunity when it applied in 1991 to do business as a foreign corporation in Minnesota.

Bui when he told Associate Justice Jeanne Suit cont'd on 4 IEN charges NSP with using nuke plan to divide tribal-environmental alliance The only commercial walleye fishery in the United States and the largest tribal fishery on the continent Some tribal members fear fishing industry could collapse The director of a Native- environmental organization condemned plans by a Minnesota- based utility to compensate a Dakota tribe for agreeing to changes in a state law which allowed temporary storage of high-level nuclear waste on land adjacent to the Prairie Island reservation. If approved by the state legislature, the amendments would provide the tribe funding from NSP to relocate reservation residents, in return for allowing continued and expanded nuclear storage at the site. "The proposal made by Northern States Power utility company in relation to the Mdewakanton Dakota community of Prairie Island is an unethical, immoral and blatant act of environmental racism," says Tom Goldtooth, national coordinator of the Indigenous Environmental Network. Goldtooth said, however, that NSP's "racist policy" of siting facilities in communities of color is consistent with its action in the predominately African American city of Homer Louisiana, where the company is pushing a uranium enrichment processing plant to be built, despite community opposition. For more than 22 years, the Prairie Island community has been exposed to radioactivity from the two nuclear reactors near the reservation, according to tribal member Joseph Campbell. "Ithas impacted the animal life, the fish, and the birds. It is only logical to understand that the air, the water and the people must also be contaminated," said Campbell.

(AP) _ Some members of the Red Lake band of Chippewa Indians fear that their reservation's fishing industry could collapse because of overfishing, wrecking their main industry. The tribe is considering limiting commercial fishing to 300 full-time people, and taking the privilege away from the approximately 500 people who net fish from the lakes only part time. Lawrence Bedeau, a tribal council member, said the fishery will be ruined if too many people continue to put out too many nets. He said that even with strict controls, the walleye population will still need 10 to 20 years to recover. "A lot of people will disagree with me on that," Bedeau said. "But we have the scientific data that shows that. It'll collapse."

(AP)_ A legal dispute over the ability of Indian tribes to buy land and exempt it from state and local taxes is likely headed to theU.S. Supreme Court, South Dakota Attorney General Mark Barnett said Tuesday. In November, a three-judge panel of the 8th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals stuck down a 60-year-old law that has allowed the U.S. Department of Interior to acquire land and place it in trust for tribes or individual Indians. The full appeals court in St. Louis decided last week not to rehear the case. Barnett said he received notice ofthe ruling Tuesday. The attorney general said he believes federal and tribal officials will appeal to the Supreme Court. He said there is a good chance the Supreme Court will agree to hear the case because the issue has far-reaching effects in many states. "It has nationwide impact," Barnett said. Barnett said the issue is important to states and local governments because land placed in trust for tribes is no longer on the property tax rolls. The state and local governments also lose jurisdiction to enforce laws on trust property, he said. The decision by the appeals court also could hamper Indian tribes' efforts to locate casinos on land they purchase outside reservation boundaries. The November decision by the three- judge panel said the federal law that allows the Interior Department to place land in trust for Indians is Land cont'd on 3 BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) _ Gov. Ed Schafer and Jesse Taken Alive, chairman ofthe Standing Rock Sioux tribe, signed an agreement Wednesday that lays out a framework for cooperation between the state and tribe. The two-page document, signed during a ceremony at tribal headquarters inFort Yates, explicitly recognizes the sovereignty ofthe state and the Standing Rock nation. It is meant to push for "more efficient, improved and beneficial services to Indian and non-Indian people of our state," according to its text. "Too much time and effort has been wasted or misdirected by working in isolation or in fragmented approaches, and in some cases (in) the opposite direction," Schafer said during the ceremony. Taken Alive said the agreement could help resolve jurisdictional disputes between the state and the Standing Rock tribe on everything from highways to fishing and boating. Relationships between the Standing Rock Sioux and state government will be reviewed periodically by the state Indian Affairs Commission, Schafer said. The panel includes tribal chairmen. Negotiations for a similar accord are underway with the Three Affiliated Tribes, Schafer said. State lawmakers said Wednesday the Standing Rock agreement was general enough that any review by the Legislature is probably unnecessary. "Who would object? It sounds good," said Rep. William Kretschmar, R-Venturia, chairman of the House Judiciary Committee. "The devil will be in the details, not in this broad outline." Sen. Wayne Stenehjem, R-Grand Forks, chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee, had a similar reaction. "Anything that we can do to bring state governments and tribal governments closer together is useful," he said. "The governor has done a good job with the tribal governments, in trying to bring them together." Stenehjem clashed with Schafer and tribal chairmen during the 1995 Legislature in a dispute over whether the state's gambling compacts with its five tribes could seal casino records from public inspection. White House opposed gambling plan, court told State threatens to close Indian casinos By William F Rawson PHOENIX (AP) _ State regulators threatened Monday to close two Indian gambling operations unless the tribes come up with about $117,000 the state claims it is owed for regulation costs. Meanwhile, three tribes _ including the two that run the threatened casinos asked for binding arbitration to resolve the dispute, blaming it on the state's failure to live up to the terms of negotiated Indian gambling compacts. Gary Husk, director of the state Department of Gaming, wrote letters Monday to the Tohono O'odham and San Carlos Apache tribes demanding immediate payment ofthe $ 117,000. Husk said the amount reflects the unpaid portion ofthe annual $500 per slot machine assessment the tribes agreed to pay the state. He said compacts negotiated between the state and each of the tribes called for the payment of the $500 per machine assessment for the first two years of the compacts. The money goes toward department expenses. The compacts specify that after the first two years, the amount of the assessment is to be negotiated. The Tohono o'odham and San Carlos tribes acknowledged that they independently cut their payments to reflect the department's actual costs over the past two years. Husk called the action "a major breach" of the compacts, which he said require the payments to be based both on the department's actual costs as well as projected costs. The department believes costs will require payments of at least $500 per machine in future years. "That is a reflection of the growth ofthe industry," he said. "While two State cont'd on 4 MADISON, Wis. (AP) _ Improper pressure on the Interior Department influenced the government's rejection of plans by Chippewa Indians to operate a western Wisconsin casino, lawyers told a federal judge. "It was the most egregious demonstration of improper political pressure you'll ever find," attorney Robert Friebert said Friday in asking U. S. District Judge Barbara B. Crabb to enforce a request to question federal officials. Friebert represents Chippewa from northern Wisconsin's Red Cliff, Mole Lake and Lac Courte Oreilles reservations. They and the St. Croix Meadows pari-mutuel track in Hudson have talked about opening a casino annex The proposal would need the sanction ofthe department's Bureau of Indian Affairs and state officials, includ ing Gov. Tommy G. Thompson who has said he opposes the idea. The application received support from the BIA office inMinneapolis, but when it got to the nation's capital, Democrats in and out of the Clinton administration persuaded the Interior Department to reject it, lawyers said. Crabb took the lawyers' request under advisement They also want the department's rejection overturned. David Jones, assistant U.S. attorney, said the rejection was denied because of state opposition and without political influence. The Indians' lawyers have not demonstrated anyone tampered with the process, Jones said. Friebert said the influence began in 1994 during a Minneapolis meeting between President Clinton and Minnesota Indians, followed by letters from a Minnesota tribal lobbyist to White House deputy counsel Harold Ickes. Ickes telephoned the Interior Department, he said. A memorandum last June 26 from the department to Ickes said the application would be denied, Crabb was told A lawyer for the Chippewa spoke July 14 with Interior Secretary Brace Babbitt about the pressure, and Babbitt said Ickes told him a decision had to be issued that day, Friebert said. Ada Deer, assistant U.S. secretary of Indian affairs and former leader of Wisconsin's Menominee Indian Reservation, had authority to sign the decision, he said. However, she wrongly removed herself on grounds she once contributed $250 to an election campaign for Gaiashkibos, chairman of the Lac Courte Oreilles, he said.

Merger gains advocate in former congressman
AT&T gained an advocate for its proposed merger with T-Mobile this week when former Rep. Rick Boucher (D-Va.) joined the Internet Innovation Alliance, an AT&T-backed advocacy group that is working to promote the combination.
Boucher, the former leader of the House telecom subcommittee and a seasoned expert in telecom policy, adds a substantive voice to AT&T's already deep bench of policy talent selling the deal in Washington.
Boucher's argument for the merger centers on the overwhelming benefits of mobile broadband, which has the potential to bring benefits ranging from job growth to revolutionary upgrades to the healthcare and education systems.
"This merger is in the public interest because it will achieve that very high level of broadband penetration," Boucher said in an interview with The Hill on Thursday.
AT&T has pledged to expand mobile broadband to 97 percent of the population if the merger is approved. That tips the scales in favor of the deal, in Boucher's view.
"The primary issue is access to broadband. I think the secondary issue is the effect on competition," he said. "The effect on competition is minimal enough that we should not sacrifice the chance to bring broadband to virtually everyone who wants it."
Boucher would not predict whether the deal would decrease competition "since new carriers are cropping up all the time." He noted that most major cities have five or more wireless carriers.
A former rural lawmaker, Boucher emphasized the benefits for the countryside if AT&T were to expand broadband to hard-to-reach areas, as its pledge says it will.
"Broadband is the bridge that links our rural communities to the economic mainstream," Boucher said.
He also cited benefits for the tech industry, and said companies like Amazon and eBay will be beneficiaries since customers with fast connections will be better equipped to use their services.
Boucher cited challenges that face public policy solutions to achieving universal broadband.
On the question of reforming the Universal Service program, he reiterated his view that legislation is needed to overhaul the $8 billion fund, which subsidizes telecom costs. He and Rep. Lee Terry (R-Neb.) had introduced a reform bill in the last Congress.
"To really have a comprehensive reform, Congress needs to act," he said, pointing to the revenue side of the equation, in which firms pay into the fund, as a component where the FCC does not have sufficient legal authority to make all the necessary changes.
A congressional effort could face major obstacles. "There may be a challenge in terms of the political will to pass the reform," Boucher said.
Boucher also pointed to budgetary efforts to zero out Rural Utilities Service funding for broadband loans as a sign of the challenges government faces in bridging the broadband gap.
Consumer advocates and midsize cellphone companies strongly oppose the merger, arguing that a decrease in competition will hurt innovation across the tech and wireless industries and that prices will rise as a result of consolidation.
The merger faces its second test on Capitol Hill on Thursday in a hearing before a House Judiciary subcommittee. The CEOs of AT&T and Deutsche Telekom will testify.

#17935 closed defect (bug) (wontfix)
Quick edit in admin bypasses custom_column filters in wp-admin/edit.php
Reported by: | postpostmodern | Owned by: | wonderboymusic |
Priority: | normal | Milestone: | |
Component: | Query | Version: | 3.2 |
Severity: | normal | Keywords: | has-patch |
Cc: |
Calling get_post( integer ) bypasses all normal query filters, like posts_fields and posts_join. I ran into this problem when using Quick Edit on wp-admin/edit.php in conjunction with query filters in a plugin.
Example plugin:
/* Plugin Name: get_posts bug report */ add_filter( 'posts_fields', 'get_post_bug_posts_fields' ); add_filter( 'posts_request', 'get_post_bug_posts_request' ); add_filter( 'manage_posts_columns', 'get_post_bug_manage_posts_columns' ); add_filter( 'manage_posts_custom_column', 'get_post_bug_manage_posts_custom_column', 10, 2 ); function get_post_bug_posts_fields( $sql ){ $sql .= ", 'ffffoooooooo' AS `foo`, 'baaaaaarrrr' AS `bar`"; return $sql; } function get_post_bug_posts_request( $sql ){ //var_dump( $sql ); return $sql; } function get_post_bug_manage_posts_columns( $headings ){ $a = array_slice( $headings, 0, 3 ); $b = array_slice( $headings, 4 ); $headings = array_merge( $a, array('foo'=>'Foo'), array('bar'=>'Bar'), $b ); return $headings; } function get_post_bug_manage_posts_custom_column( $column_name, $post_id ){ global $post; switch( $column_name ){ case 'foo': echo $post->foo; break; case 'bar': echo $post->bar; break; } }
On page load, the edit list table will load correctly with two custom columns, however saving the post from the Quick Edit interface will result in the two columns having no data.
Proposed fix:
wp-includes/post.php line 391
$_post = $wpdb->get_row($wpdb->prepare("SELECT * FROM $wpdb->posts WHERE ID = %d LIMIT 1", $post_id));
$_posts = query_posts( array('p' => $post_id, 'post_type' => 'any', 'post_status' => 'any', 'posts_per_page' => 1) ); $_post = count( $_posts ) ? $_posts[0] : $wpdb->get_row( $wpdb->prepare("SELECT * FROM $wpdb->posts WHERE ID = %d LIMIT 1", $post_id) );

get_posts() uses WP_Query, which calls all the filters you mentioned.
get_post() fetches a single post directly, so it doesn't make any sense for it to have those filters.
You will have to find another way to achieve what you want.
comment:2 scribu — 2 years ago
Furthermore, adding those filters, without going through WP_Query would break a lot of plugins that expect WP_Query.
If it did go through WP_Query, it would have a significant overhead, which isn't warranted and would still probably break several plugins.
comment:3 postpostmodern — 2 years ago
That's understandable that using WP_Query inside of get_post() can not be used because of ramifications with plugins and overhead.
However, I think that this bug in relation to the Quick Edit interface is still valid, here is my reasoning:
Wordpress provides APIs to select extra data along with my post, as well as APIs to display this in the edit table and sort the columns which this data belongs to. This data is automatically passed to the WP_Posts_List_Table class in wp-admin/edit.php via prepare_items(), which is using the WP_Query by way of wp_edit_posts_query().
The 'inline-save' case of wp-admin/admin-ajax.php is bypassing this logic by using get_post instead, and in doing so, loses functionality.
As it exists right now, it seems you are asking developers to make another database call inside of the manage_posts_custom_column filter to get the data they need. This is less than optimal, since adding extra database calls for each post will add to the overhead, not to mention losing the ability to sort the table on this custom column.
Modifying the 'inline-save' case in wp-admin/admin-ajax.php, line 1227 to the following would allow this extra flexibility with the custom tables, as well as not impacting functionality outside of Quick Edit:
$wp_list_table->display_rows( array( get_post( $_POST['post_ID'] ) ) );
$posts = get_posts( array('p'=>$post_ID, 'post_type'=>'any', 'post_status'=>'any', 'suppress_filters'=>FALSE, 'posts_per_page'=>1) ); $post = count( $posts ) ? $posts[0] : get_post( $post_ID ); $wp_list_table->display_rows( array($post) );

Ok, I agree that this can be a problem. The proposed solution threw me off.
As it exists right now, it seems you are asking developers to make another database call inside of the manage_posts_custom_column filter to get the data they need.
What kind of data are you refering to?
$posts = get_posts( array('p'=>$post_ID, 'post_type'=>'any', 'post_status'=>'any', 'suppress_filters'=>FALSE, 'posts_per_page'=>1) ); $post = count( $posts ) ? $posts[0] : get_post( $post_ID ); $wp_list_table->display_rows( array($post) );
Why would you need to call both get_posts() and get_post()? The post either is there or it isn't.
comment:5 postpostmodern — 2 years ago
Hi, thanks for taking another look at this. Im glad you took this ticket - having written http://scribu.net/wordpress/custom-sortable-columns.html, may I use that code for reference?
In your example, price_column_display() makes a call to get_post_meta() on every row.
However, if you had expected that every post on your site would have a price, and it you would always want to display it, you might to have wanted to always join the postmeta table and select this data along with the post.
function price_posts_fields( $sql ){ global $wpdb; $sql .= ", {$wpdb->postmeta}.meta_value AS `price`"; return $sql; } add_filter( 'posts_fields', 'price_posts_fields' ); function price_posts_join( $sql ){ global $wpdb; $sql .= " LEFT JOIN {$wpdb->postmeta} ON {$wpdb->posts}.ID = {$wpdb->postmeta}.post_id AND {$wpdb->postmeta}.meta_key = 'price' "; return $sql; } add_filter( 'posts_join', 'price_posts_join' );
Then, price_column_display() becomes
function price_column_display( $column_name, $post_id ) { global $post; echo trim($post->price) ? $post->price : __( 'undefined', 'my-plugin' ); }
This has the benefit of having price as part of $post site wide. In my development, I am using comparable functions to join geolocation data to each post, so $post->latitude and $post->longitude is globally available, including for display in the Edit table.
As far as calling both get_posts() and get_post(), there seems to be a problem when using the Quick Edit on a draft, as far as I can tell, around line 2643 in wp-includes/query.php, $post_status_obj->protected is TRUE on drafts, and ends up returning an empty array. Perhaps there is another query variable I should be using?

WONTFIX, because this assumption is not true:
Wordpress provides APIs to select extra data along with my post
It provides APIs to select extra data when querying multiple posts. But code should consider that sometimes posts are selected individually from the cache, and provide an appropriate "else" case that fetches any missing data.
