Living With Diabetes Sucks. I Know. I've Suffered From Diabetes For 20 Years. Unable To Eat Another Boring Meal, I Decided To Learn Everything There Is To Know About Food And Diabetes...
Finally, I'm Releasing My Findings In A Cookbook That Will Change Your Life Forever. If You're Tired Of Bland, I'm Here To Tell You There Is An Alternative...
September 01, 2020
Dear Friend,
Living with diabetes is NOT easy... cooking with diabetes can be even harder! But things are about to get much better for you...
Whether you're dealing with Type 1, Type 2, or Gestational Diabetes Mellitus (GDM), the disease affects every part of your life... not the least of which is the food you eat every day.
- Your doctors tell you that you'll never be able to eat a "normal" diet again...
- Friends and family don't know how to cook so-called "diabetic food," so if you're invited to their gatherings at all, you end up with meals that taste more like cardboard than something edible...
- And, even if you or your loved one has been living with diabetes for a long time, you still have questions, doubts and fears about what you can and cannot eat...
The result is that you feel trapped and helpless.
Food turns into your enemy.
And, something as fundamental as eating a great breakfast, lunch or dinner becomes a nearly impossible minefield to navigate.
- Your diet turns into the most basic, boring and bland collection of foods possible.
And, that's because unfamiliar foods and new recipes don't feel exciting, they're life threatening.
- You don't think in terms of how good something tastes, but rather how many carbohydrates, starches, sugars and fats it contains.
Food is no longer something enjoyed; it simply becomes a medical necessity just as much of a scientific fact as that insulin shot...
- And, you've long since given up on the idea of ever returning to the foods and recipes that you so desperately crave.
Even though those delectable snacks, desserts, treats and beverages that constantly seem to always be right there taunting you!
But, I don't need to tell you any of this... you know it all too well.
Whether recently diagnosed, or you or a loved one has been living with diabetes for years, every food choice you make must take the disease into very real consideration.
And that's a bummer because you know better than anyone else that...
Most Diabetic Recipes Are About As Tasty
As The Paper They're Printed On...
As a diabetic myself, I searched for years to find a quality cookbook that would not only help me create quick, easy and satisfying meals, but ones that tasted great AND were safe for me... I had NO luck.
For years, I scoured the web, bookstores, and libraries to find any cooking resources that would make my life easier and the food I ate more enjoyable... again I had very little luck.
And, for years, I knocked on the doors of established dieticians, chefs, and restaurants to see if they had any special recipes that would help me take the boring out of every meal... I was met with more closed doors than I care to remember.
I was shocked at how few cookbooks, recipes or even interesting food ideas are out there for diabetics:
- It seemed that the doctors are more interested in telling you what you can NOT eat, than shedding light on what you can.
- It seemed that cookbook publishers must think there's not a big enough demand, so they don't bother creating quality resources.
- And almost everybody else involved in the food industry seemed okay with just repackaging the same ol' boring recipes that have been around for decades.
To say I was disheartened by what I found (or didn't find) is a total understatement.
It seemed to me that...
Eating Should NOT Have To Be So Hard For Diabetics... But, Sadly, It Is!
When you break it down, the problem you're facing shouldn't be that difficult to solve:
You or your loved one has diabetes.
You want to be able to eat as good as - or better - than you ever have before... or at least find recipes that don't taste awful.
And, you want to be shown exactly how to create simple, fast and mouth-watering dishes without having to convert "traditional" recipes into diabetic-safe ones.
That's not too much to ask, is it?
But, you have no idea how to get started. And, that's a problem.
Or, if you do have an idea how to begin, you're overwhelmed by everything it'll take to do the conversions, substitutions, and exchanges to make your recipes safe. That's a problem, too.
It feels like a ton of work, doesn't it? Particularly if you can't afford to spend all day in the kitchen every day... and who has that kind of free time?!
First of all, go easy on yourself.
If you're feeling any of these things, you're definitely not alone... just like you, diabetics everywhere are faced with this same sort of challenges at every meal.
Especially if you're newly diagnosed, it's not like you ever had to think about these types of things before, so it's hard to even know where you're supposed to start, right?
But, the good news is...
You don't have to settle for cardboard food.
You don't have to struggle to make something that tastes great AND is good for you.
That's because you can finally...
Treat Yourself To The Taste You Deserve.
When I saw how little was out there for diabetics, I decided to make a difference.
I decided to create the world's best diabetic cookbook. Go big or go home, right?!
I decided to develop a cooking resource filled with so many amazing recipes that it would blow your mind and delight your tummy... so you could eat better than almost everybody else in the world, every day!
As a result, over the past three years, I've worked with a team of incredible dieticians, chefs and food lovers to create a compendium of the most delicious diabetic-friendly recipes ever gathered in one place!
- I want you to experience what eating truly great food every day can feel like.
- I don't want you to have to struggle with the same obstacles as you do now...
- And I don't want you to waste your time searching for hit-or-miss recipes all over the web.
So, with much trial and error, I created a best-in-class cookbook that is filled with easy-to-make mouth-watering recipes that will show you everything you need to know to quickly begin cooking like a gourmet pro - all while being totally diabetic-friendly!
Now, YOU can discover how easy it can be to start enjoying your meals again... without the stress, without the worry, and without the fear.
That's why I'm excited to introduce you to...

You Don't Want To Make The Same Mistakes That So Many Other Diabetics Do...
It's a sad fact of our times that there is a TON of misinformation out there about diabetes and healthy eating.
Nowadays it seems that everyone - from doctors to chefs and everybody in between - is confused about what you can and cannot eat.
The status quo solution has been for the "experts" to focus on all the foods you CANNOT eat and to offer you a very, very small list of foods that you can eat.
This kind of fear-based approach is exactly why there are so few innovative and great-tasting recipes out there - nobody wants to take the time and effort to make a really valuable resource for you.
And, that's why you're here today searching for a cookbook that can really make a difference in your life.
But, now you have an important choice to make:
You can either keep living like so many other diabetics with a poor selection of food choices; you know, the boring meals you've been eating ever since you were diagnosed... and the limited number of ingredients you were led to believe were the only ones you could choose from,
- You can take advantage of a groundbreaking new cookbook that will totally change the very way you think about food forever; with great tasting recipes, snack ideas and helpful hints that will open up a totally new way of eating and enjoying food that you thought was lost forever...
The choice really is yours, but please believe me when I say...
This Is Your One Chance To Do Something Really Very Special For Yourself...
Hey, let's be honest here...
Living with diabetes isn't ideal... but you're making the best of it and will come out a winner no matter what, right?!
By taking advantage of the opportunity to make one part of your illness easier - your diet - you are telling yourself and the world that you're worth it.
You finally have a real chance to do something really, really special for yourself... and it begins and ends with FOOD!
This is your chance to change the way you think about food (and eat) forever.
- To stop settling for food that tastes like cardboard...
- To stop thinking about food as just carbs or starches or sugars...
- To truly begin eating gourmet food that is super simple to make...
You don't have to believe what others tell you. You can eat well. You don't have to limit yourself.

Volusia Speedway Park
DirtonDirt.com plans live Volusia broadcast in '13
BLOOMINGTON, Ill. (Dec. 6) — The online broadcast of the Late Model portion of the UNOH DIRTcar Nationals Presented by Summit Racing Equipment is set to reach its largest audience ever in 2013 thanks to a partnership between DirtonDirt.com and DIRTVision.com. The two online broadcast providers have partnered to produce a pay-per-view broadcast of the six-night miniseries scheduled for Feb. 18-23 at Volusia Speedway Park in Barberville, Fla., with both websites broadcasting the event live to worldwide audiences.
Six nights of live racing action from Volusia's half-mile oval kicks off Monday, Feb. 18 with the opening night of the Super Late Model portion of the DIRTcar Nationals' two-week schedule. Six cameras will bring viewers unmatched coverage of all of the week's racing, which includes three UMP DIRTcar-sanctioned events Feb. 18-20 followed by three events for the World of Outlaws Late Model Series Feb. 21-23. The broadcast will also include every lap of the week's support division action, which features UMP Modifieds Feb. 18-19 and the Big-Block Modifieds of the Super DIRTcar Series Feb. 20-23.
"DIRTVision.com and DirtonDirt.com have very loyal fan followings, and we are looking forward to bringing both of these fan bases together for a week of the best Late Model racing all year," said Brian Dunlap, director of DIRTVision's parent company World Racing Group. "DIRTVision.com and DirtonDirt.com have worked closely on smaller projects in the past, but it's really exciting to have the opportunity to work together on something this big. We are really looking forward to bringing the best live coverage of dirt racing into homes around the world through DIRTVision.com and DirtonDirt.com."
DirtonDirt.com founder and CEO Michael Rigsby brings with him not only a wealth of knowledge in the video and broadcast industry, but also a professional video production crew that has delivered successful broadcasts of the World of Outlaws-sanctioned USA Nationals at Cedar Lake Speedway and the Wild West Shootout miniseries at Tucson International Raceway. The additional resources provided by DirtonDirt.com will increase that quality of the broadcast for viewers tuning in via either website.
World of Outlaws announcer Rick Eshelman will be joined by veteran announcer Ben Shelton to call all of the action from Volusia with each night's broadcast also featuring pre- and post-race shows, driver interviews throughout the night and instant replays of all of the event's thrills and spills.

Paris transplant: White Orchid blooms on Main
Why write fiction? Consider the following true story.
American man meets Vietnamese woman at her popular Parisian restaurant. A year later, they meet again in Paris, start dating (he waits in the double-parked car while she gathers provisions between lunch and dinner shifts). Vietnamese woman leaves Paris with her siblings to move to Charlottesville, where the American man lives and works at a major university. Together, they open a Vietnamese restaurant on West Main Street in the former home of Station. Charlottesville diners live happily ever after. Or something like that.
Yes, the tale of White Orchid, which opened on Saturday, September 3, is romantic. The male protagonist is Leonard Mirman, professor of economics at UVA and now also a restaurant owner. Mirman took over the lease of 420 West Main (owned by Gabe Silverman and Allan Cadgene) about three months ago, having purchased the business from long-time owner Barbara Shifflett.
Mirman and his partner Duyen Nguyen a native of Vietnam who fled to Paris with her family 25 years ago ran the restaurant as Station for a while. But it quickly became clear that going with a 100 percent Vietnamese menu was their recipe for success.
Nguyen, who holds two Le Cordon Bleu degrees (cuisine and patisserie), owned and operated Pivoine ("poppy"), a successful Vietnamese restaurant near Paris' Place d'Italie, for five years. It took Mirman three nights just to get a table! His chances are better now that he's the owner of Nguyen's new venture, White Orchid.
Creating the restaurant involved a few changes to the former gas station's modern-industrial décor– pots of orchids scattered here and there, a few well-placed pieces of Chinese furniture, framed color photographs of Vietnam- and a complete transformation of the menu. Nguyen, who runs the show with her sister and brother, is also assisted by chef Nhim Tran, whom she found by placing an ad in a Vietnamese newspaper in D.C.
As you might imagine, very little English is spoken in White Orchid's kitchen- which makes it challenging for the restaurant's American servers ("Parlez-vous francais?" I overheard one asking the chef), but bodes well for diners.
Known for its freshness (lettuce, lime wedges, and cilantro garnish most plates) and simple complexity, Vietnamese cuisine creates a craving that's difficult to satisfy with Thai or Chinese. Charlottesville has other jolts of Vietnamese cuisine (C-ville Coffee's noodle bowls and Saigon Café come immediately to mind).
I've only just begun to sample White Orchid's comprehensive menu skewers of grilled lemongrass beef, shrimp mousse on sugar cane, a mango salad topped with fresh shrimp and bean sprouts, a potful of grilled Hanoi-style pork and another of lemongrass chicken (both soaked in slurpable sauces), fried snapper with ginger sauce which is why I'm glad that, starting this week, they'll be serving lunch as well as dinner. White Orchid's planned opening hours are 11:30-2pm and 5:30-10pm, Tuesday-Sunday.
Aroma's on the horizon
Many of you have already discovered the wonders of Aroma's Café, Hassan Kaisoum's Mediterranean lunch hotspot tucked away in a cafeteria in the Fontaine Research Park.
Though it's well worth the hunt, you might be glad to know that as Dish previously promised a more centrally located Aroma's #2 is now looming on the imminent horizon. Kaisoum tells Dish he's planning to open Aroma's Café and Bistro in the Millmont Plaza (behind Harris-Teeter) by mid-November.
"I wanted a location that would be more central to everybody and be nice and convenient for students and families," he says. Though details will be coming soon, we can expect a menu similar to that of the original Aroma's with its many Moroccan elements, but in addition to lunch, the Millmont location will also serve breakfast starting at 7am (espresso drinks, pastries) and dinner ( a more elaborate menu, beer and wine).
White Orchid's creators Duyen Nguyen and Leonard Mirman

Breathtaking luminosity: The backside of Kravis Center, and in foreground, the all-glass Kravis Living Room.
Claremont McKenna College has been awarded LEED® Gold certification by the U.S. Green Building Council for its award-winning Kravis Center, a five-level academic and administrative facility that serves as the western gateway to campus. LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) is the nation's preeminent program for the design, construction, and operation of high-performance green buildings. The 162,000 square-foot Kravis Center, which was dedicated in October 2011, provides space for five of the College's research institutes, offices for faculty, admissions, and financial aid, classrooms, seminar rooms, an underground parking structure with 60 spaces (including for low emitting and fuel efficient vehicles), outdoor courtyards, and "green roof" spaces that give professors and students flexibility to host classes and meetings outside.
The Kravis Center achieved LEED certification for energy use, lighting, water, and material use as well as incorporating a variety of other sustainable strategies. By using less energy and water, LEED certified buildings save money, reduce greenhouse gas emissions, and contribute to a healthier environment for students/residents, staff, and the larger community.
As part of Master Planning efforts undertaken by the College several years ago, "The Kravis Center exemplifies the College's physical evolution, and commitment to sustainability, as well to developing world-class facilities for students and staff," said CMC President Pamela B. Gann. "So it is with great pleasure that we now also have our first, LEED-Gold designation."
The Kravis Center was designed by renowned Rafael Viňoly
Architects with LEED-Gold attributes in mind. The actual certification process, through an independent, two-year review, uses a categorized score card in which credits are given for meeting very particular, defined "green" criteria. Kravis Center's total score was 47, "well above the minimum 39 points it needed to qualify for Gold certification," said Coomy Kadribegovic, who represented independent firm Davis Langdon in CMC's certification process.
Of its many notable sustainable features, top of mind is the Center's energy efficiency, she says, which uses radiant panel chill beams for heating and cooling.
"The Kravis Center also utilizes a tremendous amount of natural lighting," she said. "By using low-emissivity glazing on the floor-to-ceiling windows, you really maximize the Southern California climate while minimizing electricity use."
LEED certification of Gold was based on these as well as a number of other green design and construction features that positively impact the project itself and the broader community. Some of these features include:
• Open spaces (The building provides exemplary open-space)
• The campus supports local plants, wildlife, and reduces storm-water runoff and "heat island" effect (the term given to built-up areas that are hotter than nearby rural areas)
• Water management: The building and site reduces storm-water runoff by 25 percent. Rain water is recycled through pavers that capture the water directly into the building's drainage system
• Light pollution reduction: Fixtures minimize light pollution at nighttime
• Interior lighting automatically turns itself off at night during unoccupied hours to save energy and reduce light pollution
• High-efficiency plumbing (dual flush toilets and low-flow fixtures) reduces water usage
• The building's cutting-edge, chilled beam cooling system, radiant ceiling panels, and small-duct ventilation system minimizes the HVAC equipment and air distribution
• Construction waste management: 75 percent of total waste (235.5 tons to date) was diverted from landfill as a result of recycling efforts during construction
• Indoor environmental quality: 90 percent of individual workstations have access to task lighting to reduce overhead lighting power
• 90 percent of spaces have daylight and views
Claremont McKenna College was previously awarded LEED Silver certification for Claremont Hall, the College's newest residence hall. The building was renamed Crown Hall last spring, in recognition of alumnus-Trustee Steve Crown '74, wife, Nancy, and the Crown family.
The Kravis Center, named in honor of Trustee Henry Kravis '67 and Marie-Josée Kravis, is the winner of two design awards. (Watch its amazing construction and hear from the architect and others in this time-lapse introductory video.
In 2011, the Kravis Center won McGraw-Hill's ENR magazine award for Best Higher Education/Research Project in the United States. Last year, the Los Angeles Business Council honored the building with an Education Award in the Private Education category, during the Los Angeles Architectural Awards ceremony. The event recognizes "cutting edge design in the Los Angeles region." (View winning projects.)
"The real beginning of a building is not today," Kravis Center principal/lead designer Rafael Viňoly said at the groundbreaking. "It's the way in which the building is occupied, made part of the culture of the institution, and the way in which it grows with it." Added Gann: "It's going to create a defining architectural identity for generations to come, of teacher and scholars and students, and for our returning alumni."
About the U.S. Green Building Council
The Washington, D.C.,-based USCGB is committed to a prosperous and sustainable future for our nation through cost-efficient and energy-saving green buildings. With a community comprising 80 local affiliates, more than 18,000 member companies and organizations, and more than 167,000 LEED Professional Credential holders, USGBC is the driving force of an industry that is projected to contribute $554 billion to the U.S. gross domestic product from 2009-2013. USGBC leads an unlikely
diverse constituency of builders and environmentalists, corporations and nonprofit organizations, elected officials and concerned citizens, and teachers and students.
Buildings in the United States are responsible for 39% of CO2 emissions, 40% of energy consumption, 13% water consumption and 15% of GDP per year, making green building a source of significant economic and environmental opportunity. Greater building efficiency can meet 85% of future U.S. demand for energy, and a national commitment to green building has the potential to generate 2.5 million American jobs.
The U.S. Green Building Council's LEED green building certification system is the foremost program for the design, construction and operation of green buildings. Over 100,000 projects are currently participating in the LEED rating systems, comprising over 8 billion square feet of construction space in all 50 states and 114 countries.
By using less energy, LEED-certified buildings save money for families, businesses and taxpayers; reduce greenhouse gas emissions; and contribute to a healthier environment for residents, workers and the larger community.
USGBC was co-founded by current President and CEO Rick Fedrizzi, who spent 25 years as a Fortune 500 executive. Under his 15-year leadership, the organization has become the preeminent green building, membership, policy, standards, influential, education and research organization in the nation.

The nation's top extortion artist, Eric Holder, is at it again (or still). This time, rather than running guns to Mexican drug cartels or investigating reporters who publish inconvenient facts about the administration's scandals, Holder is taking aim at America's small businesses. While Holder and Co have been busy collecting billion dollar fines from big banks, they've taken a more direct approach to snub out businesses that don't necessarily conform with the Holder/Obama view of America.
Operation Choke Point, as it has been known, was a DOJ initiative that was intentionally designed to pressure banks and lenders into avoiding certain industry-specific businesses. Ostensibly, Operation Choke Point was designed to fight money laundering and fraud. The secretive initiative was launched with little fanfare in 2013. According to the Justice Department, it was aimed at "choking out" companies the Administration considered high-risk, despite the fact that they were legal businesses that had shown no signs of fraud.
In other words, the program was aimed at punishing businesses for merely existing. One of the primary victims of Operation Chokepoint has been gun manufacturers, and legal firearm dealers. (What a shock… I'm sure that's completely coincidental.)
So, while Eric Holder was busy shaking down banks for billions of dollars on trumped up charges, his department was also intentionally harassing legal businesses such as gun dealers, payday lenders, and anyone else that earned the scorn of the Obama Administration.
The DOJ has acknowledged that their tactics have resulted in many businesses being unduly punished, but brushed off any concerns by saying that legitimate businesses will merely have to make additional efforts to "prove to banks they are not engaged in fraud." Because, yeah… That's clearly how our system is supposed to work, right? I mean, sure, we could try to use the DOJ to target people that have actually broken laws, but that would require a little less Chicago-style corruption.
Lucky for us, a handful of Republicans in California (yeah… there are still some Republicans left in that state) elected Darrel Issa to the US House of Representatives. Issa, who chairs the Oversight committee, has chosen to take Holder to task for his latest affront to American style government, by claiming that the DOJ's actions are flagrantly illegal.
And, of course, Issa's right… But it's actually worse than that. Holder's actions are also un-American. More than being corrupt, political, or criminal, Eric Holder's repeated use of thuggary and intimidation are fundamentally antithetical to the American form of government. But, he's not alone in his un-American wielding of federal power. There is a growing sense among the ruling elite, that government is a tool to keep the citizens in line. The IRS is more than a revenue collection agency, it is (apparently) a tool to silence and harass political opponents. The DOJ isn't merely a law enforcement agency, but an agency with the power to manipulate and intimidate the public into compliance with certain world views.
When (a) government is gleefully wielding its power to harass, bully or intimidate the populace into submission, things have gone off the track somewhere. I guess this is the "Hope and Change" that America voted for in 2008: A world where the government runs extortion schemes and protection rackets while bullying industries they don't like. Who knew that liberal utopia looked so much like Chicago?

Where She's From: Aspiring model La Toya Monagas, 21-year-old Libra, was born premature, weighing only 3lbs and 2 oz in Elizabeth, New Jersey. "My mother gave me the nickname I go by today—Lil Toy,� she tells The Black Star News. "My family moved to Florida and I was raised in Carol City for 15 years. My mom always told me, 'If you want to soar like an eagle, don't flock with turkeys.' My dad taught me that to get respect you need to give respect. And as Tyra Banks says 'You do not have to pay if someone wants your looks.'�
La Toya attended Hialeah High School and graduated in 2004. "I first started at Henry H. Filer Middle School by taking modeling classes at John Casablancas and then going on go-sees,� she adds. "Then when I saw they wanted more and more money, I didn't have it so I started venturing out on my own because money was and still is a serious issue and I was always finding the wrong people to work with.�
Where She's At: "My career is now coming along slowly but surely now that I know how to avoid shady characters that just wanted money. As my mom tells me, 'good things come to people who wait.' I don't want to get caught up with someone who thinks they are doing me a favor. Eventually, I see myself on TV doing it big like Halle Berry and in magazines working with all the top notch fashion designers.�
Where She's Heading: La Toya warns all aspiring models to beware of sheisters in the industry. "I always had this problem where I wanted to be a model so bad—I would believe scouts, scams, or even people that walked up to me,� she recalls. "They would ask me for $100 here, $200 there, then $400 here, and I would save up my money and pay them so we could get down to business. A week later, either they wanted more money or they got the heck out of Dodge with my money and pictures. Beware. I saw this point in my life where I was going to give up but I had my mom and dad and family keeping me on my toes—telling me don't let what happened put you down.�
"Beauty can only take you so far—when combined with brainpower, you become indestructible,� she says. "When it comes to dressing, I'm more of an open-minded person. I can shop just about anywhere—brand name items don't mean much to me. As long as I like the fit, smell and feel of something, then we're good.�
La Toya's Words Of Wisdom: "Never let anyone or anything keep you from your dreams. Dreams are what keep us moving and motivated.�
La Toya's Secrets Of Success: "When one door closes, another wick open. Keep striving and working hard. Let them doors close on you—let that make you stronger to proceed to the next door.�
La Toya's Favorite Three Movies: "Nightmare On Elm Street; Hannibal; and The Lion King.�
La Toya's Favorite Three Books: "The Perfect Mother, by John Salem; Breeder, by Douglass Clegg; and, all the books by Stephen King.�
Leaders That Have Most Inspired La Toya: "Rosa Parks—she stood up for all women's rights. That's why we have a voice now; Dr. Martin Luther King—he had a dream; and Tyra Banks—She's my main inspiration. She's showed women everywhere to be happy with themselves. Nobody's perfect.�
The First Three Things La Toya Would Do As President: "Bring the soldiers home—I'm tired of hearing we're losing them and sending more. Put more money into teachers' and children's education. Put money into recreation centers to get kids off the streets and to do something productive in their lives.�
La Toy's Favorite Cars: "Kia Sorento—cute and small; Mitsubishi Endeavor; nice and big and can fit a whole lot of people and I can use the truck as my closet; and, Lincoln Navigator, for show. I would like to ride high.�

Officials from the U.S. Department of Agriculture's (USDA) Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (APHIS) have taken the first step in bringing enforcement action against former elephant exhibitor Wilbur Davenport by serving him with a formal legal complaint.
The complaint, served Oct. 21, alleges that Davenport, through his Maximus "Tons of Fun" LLC in Leggett, Texas, committed several violations of the Animal Welfare Act. Alleged violations include: repeated instances in which Davenport failed to handle the elephants as carefully as possible; failure to ensure the safety of the elephants and the public; failure to provide the elephants minimally adequate veterinary care and failure to adequately feed the elephants.
The formal USDA complaint does not mean Davenport is guilty of these allegations. It does, however, require him to formally respond to the allegations.
Davenport had been exhibiting three elephants--Jewel, Tina and Queenie--for years. Our animal care inspectors and investigators were monitoring the elephants' conditions during that time. On Aug. 20, Davenport surrendered his USDA exhibitor license and APHIS took custody of Tina and Jewel, who had been losing substantial amounts of weight. Tina and Jewel were taken to the San Diego Zoo, where they are now living in the company of other elephants. Queenie remains the legal property of Davenport.
Davenport has 20 days to file an answer to the complaint. Once he files an answer, he can either negotiate a settlement with USDA or request a hearing before a USDA administrative law judge. Possible outcomes at such a hearing include civil penalties and license revocation. If USDA issues a revocation, Davenport would not be allowed to apply for a new license in the future.
APHIS takes the protection of animals very seriously. One of our core missions is to enforce the Animal Welfare Act, which is the federal law that ensures that proper standards of care are met for the humane treatment of animals exhibited to the public. Our veterinarians, animal care inspectors and investigators are deeply committed to making sure that exhibited animals receive appropriate care and exhibitors comply with the Act.
A copy of the complaint is available on the USDA ALJ Web site. Go to http://www.usda.gov/da/oaljdecisions/ and select the Current ALJ Decisions pull-down menu. Then select the appropriate enforcement action. If you are unsure of the specific type of enforcement action that is involved, the Web site also includes an Agriculture Decisions Search Engine to aid you in this regard.

Walker spied for Soviets
RALEIGH, N.C. — A former American sailor convicted during the Cold War of leading a family spy ring for the Soviet Union has died in a prison hospital in North Carolina, officials said Friday.
Retired Navy Warrant Officer John Walker Jr. died Thursday at the Federal Medical Center in Butner, Federal Bureau of Prisons spokesman Chris Burke said. The cause of death was not immediately released. He was 77.
Walker was sentenced to life in prison after pleading guilty in 1985 to passing secrets to the Soviets while he was a shipboard communications officer.
The security breach was then considered among the largest and most devastating leaks of military secrets in the nation's history.
A cryptologist, Walker used his high-level security clearance to provide Navy codes, ship locations, and other sensitive data in exchange for cash. After his 1976 retirement, Walker recruited his son, his brother and a friend to keep providing the Soviets fresh information. All were convicted.
Walker's spying career began in 1967, when he was based at the massive U.S. Naval Station in Norfolk, Virginia. Walker went to the Soviet Embassy in Washington and volunteered to hand over secret coded material on a regular basis, according to court documents.
Over the next 17 years, the Soviets used the information provided by Walker and his accomplices to decode millions of secret U.S. Navy messages and to learn about the tactics the Americans deployed against them.
After his arrest, prosecutors said Walker's betrayal of his country appeared motivated by greed rather than ideology.
In 1985, Walker agreed to plead guilty as part of a deal with prosecutors to obtain a lighter sentence for his son.
Former Navy Seaman Michael Walker served 15 years in prison and was released in 2000.
The brother, retired Navy Lt. Cmdr. Arthur Walker, died at the Butner hospital in July.
The fourth member of the spy ring, former Navy Chief Petty Officer Jerry Whitworth, was convicted in 1986 and later sentenced to 365 years in prison. A database of federal inmates shows that Whitworth, now 75, is incarcerated at the Federal Penitentiary in Atwater, California.

A Finder window is a basic, fundamental element of your Mac. When you open any folder or disk, including your hard disk, the Mac displays the contents of the folder in a Finder window. This chapter walks you through a number of short exercises so you'll feel comfortable using these windows.
I assume you did the exercises in Chapter 2 so that you know how to click, press, press-and-drag, and maybe even Option-drag!
The basic window
Below you see a Finder window, sometimes called a Desktop window, the kind you'll see when you open a folder or disk on the Desktop.
Later you'll work with a document window, the kind you'll see when you are using an application in which you create your work. The two types of windows are similar, but Finder windows have a few specific features.
You can tell this is a Finder window because when you click on it, the menu bar across the top of the monitor, just to the right of the apple, shows the word "Finder." The Finder is the software that runs the Desktop, so all of the windows on the Desktop are considered Finder windows. Don't let that confuse you—just think of the Desktop and the Finder as the same thing, for all practical purposes.
The items inside a Finder window might be shown as icons, as a list, or in columns, as explained on the following pages.

The Slovakian-born Switzerland-based industrial designer Tomas Kral has collaborated with the recently-founded Spanish label PCM on a glassware collection, parts of which are based on original molds from the late 19th century. The beautifully crafted series comprises three vases and a set of drinking glasses and carafes, all of which have been decorated with various cut-patterns. More interestingly, the 'Reused History' collection was produced by the Royal Glass Factory of La Granja de San Ildefonso in Segovia, Spain, which is one of the last three remaining European glassworks that still blows the glass following the 18th century techniques. Now, thanks to the designer, we can share this series of insightful photographs documenting the manufacturing process of the collection.
And you'd like to view more of Kral's designs and happen to be in Austria, as part of the ongoing Vienna Design Week, Tomas has collaborated with the Viennese hatmakers Mühlbauer and the resulting 'Light Objects with Hat' exhibition opens today (30 September).
