Camping – The Cure For Everything By Linda A. Perry Platinum Quality Author
- Back to Nature:Camping cannot make world peace and it cannot solve the mysteries of cancer. But what camping can do for you, probably no other activity can. It brings you back to nature, and lets you experience peace in your very present moment. That is camping
. If you choose a state park or state forest as your camping location, you will see nature like you have never seen it before. You might see raccoons, all sorts of birds and little animals, chipmunks, rabbits and more. If you are not careful you might have your first bear experience and hopefully, you will come out of it okay. But you will, without a doubt be as close to nature as you ever will be.
My Favorite–Eureka Tents:
First, I have to say, my happiest and best camping days have been while using a Eureka tent. They are just made with the camper in mind. Does your tent have a nice screen window with a plastic flap –for rain? If you choose your tent correctly, you will have an awesome camping experience. A large part of joy in camping is having fun setting up the tent. If you do not enjoy setting your tent up–you simply have the wrong kind of tent. You may have spent just a few dollars for your tent, you might have gotten a bargain but you will know your value as you take it out and set it up. I say this from experience, and from having put up all sorts of tents from solo tents, backpacking tents, individual tents, even family tents. Yes, I have put up a family-size tent, myself–with no assistance, and had fun doing it. And just one company makes this possible. Eureka! I absolutely love the Tetragon series of Eureka tents. You cannot go wrong with this tent. The Tetragon 9 is a beautiful tent that has side windows that are net. And the fly of the tent has plastic inserts that cover the side windows in case of rain. The beauty of a tent is being able to look outdoors from the inside and still be able to be dry in a downpour. Ahh, that special beauty of seeing the forest or the park through your tent windows as the rain is pouring down outside. That is Eureka! It is just a convenient, joyful, easy-to-assemble tent.
Weather Decides Which Tent You Need:
When trying to decide which tent to purchase, the camper needs to first know where he will camp out, the time he will camp out, and the weather circumstances, and a few other things. For beginners, if you do not want to spend a few extra dollars buying a Eureka tent, you can opt for the cheaper versions of small tents just to see how you like camping. Try any tent. But I guarantee you, if you want an awesome experience, even as a beginner, you might do better with a Eureka. Here is an idea, instead of spending big bucks on an expensive tent of some other name, check out eBay or some other used-items stores and purchase your tent used instead of new. This way you can afford Eureka for your first tent and then you can upgrade later if you really insist on having a brand new tent.
Beginners' Tents:
During my experimentation with many different kinds of tents, I've found that the best beginners' tent is a very inexpensive one that is usually available, in season, at Target stores.The tent is called the Expedition Trail Authority tent. If you purchase this tent 'off- season" you can pick it up for under nineteen dollars.The tent area on the floor is seven feet by seven feet, so that's plenty space for one or two people.This tent is easily set up. You don't need two people to set it up because the tent center height is at a reasonable height. All you do is assemble the shock-corded poles and install them. Stake your tent down. Add the tent fly, and you are ready to go.
When using this tent, I use an inexpensive waterproof tarp under the tent, and another inexpensive waterproof tarp over the tent. Now , I'm set for all kinds of weather camping.
Leave Large Family Tents Home:
I've found that if you want to have a pleasant, non-working camping experience, you'll need to leave the large tents and the family tents back at the house or in the garage. Those larger tents, though they afford more room and more center height, are not fun to put together. And, on a windy day, they are almost impossible for one person to put them together. So, the smaller you go, the better you'll feel and the best and most carefree camping experience you'll have. Use two or three smaller tents for the family and you will all have more fun and much nicer trip.
RAIN? Keep Your Camping Reservation:
Here is another camping tip. Never cancel a camping trip just because you hear that it will rain. The weather will probably be fine for at least some of your trip days. So keep your planned trip. Camp in all kinds of weather if you are physically able to do so. You will love the experience. The rain will always stop, and even if it does not, you will learn what camping is really all about. Camping is about bringing yourself out into nature and living there for a short while. You live there with what nature provides, and you take it all, sunshine, rain, storms and whatever other kind of weather happens. You go camping!
The great thing about camping is that this is probably the one place that you can safely "do nothing" , and really enjoy doing that. Just sit outside the tent and take in all the birds, trees and nature all around you. Check out Hither Hills State Park if you like camping at the ocean. This is the most awesome place for going to sleep and waking up with the tide rushing. And this comes from one who does not know how to swim. I loved staying there for the night.
Just a note, if you do camp at Hither Hills, bring ziplocs with you. Put all your money or fragile items, like Ipods etc, inside plastic bags and then put the plastic bags inside a beach bucket. This way everything will be dry in the morning. Just one last note, you need to register at least nine months in advance if you want to camp out at Hither Hills during a weekend or holiday time.
What is your own camping experience? Leave a note

Do Angela's Programs Work For New Writers?
Angela's programs, whether ebooks or classes, focus on writing to SELL, rather than writing as a hobby. (Writing makes a wonderful hobby, of course, but that's not what we're about.)
Here's a snippet from an email message I wrote as a response to a new writer. Robert has always wanted to write, and thinks now may be the time. He was asking about Angela's Building Platform program, as it happens.
This is how I responded:
It's a real challenge to give you advice. Angela's programs might be a little much for you at this stage, since you're not writing at all.Why not write for 20 minutes a day for three or four months? Then you'd have more of an idea of whether it's something you want to pursue.
Certainly some of Angela's programs are fine for beginning writers, but from your message, it doesn't seem as if you've made up your mind. Forgive me if I'm being presumptuous. It's just that if you force yourself to write, you may become blocked. You could set your writing back years, if that happens.
That's the challenge for totally new writers writing to sell. If they try to force themselves to write commercially when they're not in the habit of writing, they can block. The stress is too much. It's best to sneak up on writing, rather than going for the gusto, when you're a complete newbie to writing for money.
That said, the Write More class, and the Memories workshop, are perfect for baby writers.
If you're new to writing, please don't think we're trying to put you off. We're just determined that our programs will work for you... And that you'll have FUN. Many students tell us that our writing programs are the best investment they've every made.
We always want that to be true.
Happy writing... :-)
(Angela's personal assistant.)
Angela Booth's New Writing Program Reveals the Secrets of Prolific Writing
A professional writer's income is dependent on his productivity. Angela Booth's new program, "How to Become a Prolific Writer and Conquer Every Writing Challenge" shows writers how to become prolific.
Angela Booth has developed her new program for writers, "How to Become a Prolific Writer and Conquer Every Writing Challenge" in response to her students' challenges.
Angela believes that although there are unlimited opportunities for writers now, most writers hold themselves back. They're nowhere near as prolific as they could be; this prevents them from making the income they could be making.
She says: "Over the past 30 years, I've had periods during which I was intensively prolific. Those periods changed my life. Although I've shared my strategies with my personal coaching students, this is the first time I've made them widely available."
The new program shows writers how to:
* Overcome daily distractions, to focus on their writing;
* Use a simple four-step process to becoming prolific;
* Get inspired.
Angela says that prolific writers know how to create a mindset -- relaxed and open -- which makes it easy to become prolific. The motivational MP3 program, "Affirm! Take Charge Of Your Writing And Your Life", is included with "How to Become a Prolific Writer", and helps writers to develop this mindset.
Angela's personal coaching students tested "How to Become a Prolific Writer" for over six months. They told Angela that the biggest benefit was that they became much more confident.
One student, Thomas, revels in his new confidence, and said: "After working with the program, I approached a big company and introduced myself as a freelance writer. I couldn't believe my luck when they hired me to develop a weekly newsletter, on a 12-month contract. That high five-figure contract is worth more than my entire income as a freelancer in 2011."
Another student, Cherie, took on three new book ghostwriting projects as a result of working with the program. She said: "I've never been as productive, or happy. I'm much more relaxed about my writing. It shows."
In conjunction with the new program, Angela has developed a new coaching program, "Prolific Writer Personal Coaching." It's for students who are ready for intensive personal coaching to take their writing to the next level.
Angela Booth is a top copywriter, and writing teacher. She offers many guides, courses and classes to help writers to enhance their skills at Writing Genii. She also provides inspiration and motivation for writers on her writing blogs. Angela has been writing successfully since the late 1970s, and was online in the 1980s, long before the birth of the Web. Her business books have been widely published.
Angela Booth's Ultimate Writing Toolbox to Build Writers' Income
Every year, copywriter, author and writing teacher Angela Booth compiles several of her bestselling writing guides into a "vanishing guides" toolbox for writers. This year's package shows writers how to build their platform, and much more.
The package is ideal for writers who want to boost their careers. There's so much writing work available that writers have more opportunities than they've ever had. Angela says that professional writers are booked solid, with waiting lists of clients who are eager to work with them.
She says: "I initially compiled this toolbox of bestselling writing guides for several of my students who were stuck in a rut. My assistant suggested we make the package available for others, and turn it into this year's Vanishing Guides. The package is available until July 30."
Five of Angela's bestselling guides are included in the toolbox:
* Words into Cash: Write and Sell Your Ebook in Just 8 Hours
Angela's systemized process for writing and selling ebooks, from go to whoa. This process makes both writing and selling ebooks easy. Many writers have used Angela's process to launch careers as self-published authors.
* Instant Income For Writers: Ace the Outsourcing Sites
Knowledgeable writers use the outsourcing marketplaces to fill their writing schedules, and to make the writing incomes they want. Oddly enough however, many writers are scared away from the outsourcing sites. There's a huge level of prejudice against them, which is silly. These sites provide writers with a platform to make the income they want.
* Freelance Writing: Make Great Money Writing Articles For Magazines (In Your Spare Time)
Magazine writing is both easy and highly profitable. Once writers are familiar with the techniques in this guide, writers can write for for magazines which pay from $1 to $4 PER WORD.
* Your Write to Sell System: Build a Powerful Platform For a Six-Figure Income
This guide shows writers how to build a platform. They can leverage this platform in many different ways, as they become known.
* Twitter for Writers: Achieve Writing Success 25 Words at a Time
Twitter is a wonderful platform-build tool. This guide shows writers how to use Twitter to get writer jobs, research projects, and much more.
The Vanishing Guides 2012 toolbox is available until July 30, when it will vanish for good.

Angela Booth Launches New Creativity Training Program for Writers
Copywriter and writing teacher Angela Booth has launched a new creativity training program for writers: "Turn Your Creativity Into Cash: Writers' Creativity Secrets."
Angela Booth has just released "Turn Your Creativity Into Cash: Writers' Creativity Secrets". The program is designed for writers, because their income depends on their creativity. Angela coaches writers. The program developed out of the work she does with them, to help them to become more confident and more prolific. She's packed all the guidance she gives to her personal coaching students into this new program.
Angela created her new program for two kinds of writers: those who are stuck in a low-paid writing ghetto, and writers who lack confidence.
"Turn Your Creativity Into Cash: Writers' Creativity Secrets" helps new writers, who are writing a lot, but can only get low-paid jobs. They're stuck. They want better-paying work, but aren't sure how go about getting it. These writers can use the program's tools to create strategies which help them to get better-paid gigs.
Many writers lack confidence. This means that not only do they miss great opportunities, but also that they fail to make the most of the opportunities they're given. Their efforts to promote themselves are tentative at best. At worst, they fail to promote their services at all.
Angela says: "There are endless opportunities for writers today. Professionals are fully booked for months ahead. Writers need two things today: they need to be creative, and prolific, both in writing, and in promoting their work. For a creative writer, becoming prolific is effortless. It just happens."
The motivational program: "Affirm! Take Charge Of Your Writing And Your Life" has been included as part of the creativity package. This program includes MP3 audios. The audios help to eliminate negative beliefs, and to build confidence and imagination.
Angela uses the MP3s herself, and says: "Many of us carry negative beliefs. They're deeply embedded in our unconscious mind, so we're unaware of them. We only recognize them because they limit our writing. The MP3s help writers to clear negativities which constrain their creativity."

Angela has selected three popular products for the bundle:
* Write to Flip: How to Make $1000 a Week Writing and Flipping Websites (without working up a sweat)

* Instant Income For Writers: Ace the Outsourcing Sites
This guide is perfect for new writers, who want to make money, while developing their skills. It corrects common misperceptions, and teaches writers to create secure incomes on outsourcing sites.
* Make Money Online: Create a Profitable Article Writing Business in 7 Days
This guide teaches writers to create their own article writing businesses. There's a huge demand for content online. Writers begin with the basics, and then extend their businesses, using Angela's instructions on scaling to meet demand.
Angela included the website flipping guide because she had many requests. She said: "Writers are looking for ways to express their creativity, while also making money. Using tools like WordPress, writers can create a site in minutes, fill it with content and then sell it."
The "Merry Christmas Treasure Bundle" will be available until December 26.

NY Good Questions: How Should I Paint My Bedroom?
Dear AT,
I just had my bedroom completely redone and installed built-in shelves as well as a radiator cover/bench.
I'd like to paint the walls in off-white and shelves/baseboard/bench in white; however, find it hard to decide where to draw the line.
Should I just paint the front and inside of the shelves in white?...
Email questions and pics with QUESTIONS in subject line to:
Link To All Good Questions
Or should I paint the whole window and closet area in white and just the side walls in off-white?
Would it be weird to have two white walls and two off-white walls?
Or should I just leave everything in white?
I'm getting a new door which will probably be white and the closet doors will be frosted glass with silver frame.
The floor is natural maple. Most of my furniture is metal/white.
I'm thinking of adding colors through blinds, pillows, and bedding.
Thanks! Pat

hmm, i guess i'd take the off-white color and continue it on the header to connect the other walls if you want to keep it otherwise go all-white. White would look good w/natural floors.
I'd use the off white under and around the window because that's the wall of the room, and then white on any part that's the built in, including the header.
off-white and white? ick.
White and off-white? Are you sure you want to be that daring? ;)
Actually, would you mind saying who you used to make the radiator covers (and how expensive it was)? Thanks! I've been thinking about using Gothic cabinet craft, but haven't been so happy with the samples they showed me.
Honestly, I can't imagine white and off-white working together. I was going to say that I'd leave all the shelving and the bench white while painting the rest of the room off-white (closet included), but I think that might make it look like you attempted to match the shelving & bench to the walls and failed.
For the walls, how about a soft gray instead of off-white? That would probably look nice with your white and metal furniture and your frosted glass closet doors. I think it would look nice with a natural wood floor too.
white and off-white... why white and off-white? are you trying to keep a designer white feel, but "warm" the room up at the same time? if that's a reason for your (as michael w. said) daring idea, you will probably get the same feel from the shadows and natural lighting -- your new built-ins will create gentle variations.
The room doesn't get much light so I'd like a light color but still something that contrasts to the white built-ins. I've been looking at the Benjamin Moore off-white collection and there are many options that seem like they would offer enough contrast. I'm more and more tempted to go with all white though or just a contrast wall behind the bed since I'm still not sure a different color for built-ins and walls would work.
Thanks for the comments!
The radiator cover was made by a carpenter who works for my building. I don't think he does any work outside our building. I don't know what the price for it is since I'm paying a lump sum for all the work done.
My contractor has just built some very nice radiator covers - not sure of price as we did a lot of work, and it was bundled, but in general has has been quite reasonable, and very high quality. His contact info is 'Creative Concepts First' - Nestor Kalogrias - 646..241.6095
I would paint all the millwork and the bottoms of any gyp bd soffits white, and then I'd paint the rest of the wall surfaces off white. If you are using Benjamin Moore paints, Super White would be a great white against their softer light grey China White. The Super White will pop against the China White.

Ezra Jack Keats At The Contemporary Jewish Museum
Whether your day-after-Thanksgiving is snowy, rainy, or blazing-bright, it seems like the perfect day to gaze at the calm, rich, and full-of-personality illustrations of the great Ezra Jack Keats. And if you can make it to the exhibit at San Francisco's Contemporary Jewish Museum to gaze in person, so much the better..
Keats, the son of Eastern European Jewish immigrants, grew up in Brooklyn and taught himself to paint- going on to illustrate 80 children's books. The Snowy Day is beloved for Peter's pointy hat, the single set of footprints in the snow, the sense of potential, and for being the "first modern full-color picture book to feature an African-American protagonist", as the Contemporary Jewish Museum points out. I love this quote from Keats: "If we all could really see ('see' as perceive, understand, discover) each other exactly as the other is, this would be a different world.", and this one from author Sherman Alexie: "It was the first time I looked at a book and saw a brown, black, beige character--a character who resembled me physically and spiritually, in all his gorgeous loneliness and splendid isolation." The phrase "gorgeous loneliness" is so perfect for describing the wonder of city life that Keats was able to capture: often run-down, often lonely, but always interesting. Here are a few of my favorite images...
- The endless drifts of snow! Windblown against fences, in the briefest window before the snow is rendered grey and gross by traffic.
- Can't you just feel what Peter is feeling? The cold seeping through the window panes, the still-warm blankets, the wish that today will be different, and special.
- Check out the dress on that cutie! Will Missoni make a version?
- Giant yellow floral wallpaper: discuss.
- This is definitely my favorite version of a stained-glass lampshade that I've ever seen. And the chair-dress floral combination? Nice.
The Snowy Day and the Art of Ezra Jack Keats is on view at the Contemporary Jewish Museum in San Francisco
until February 24, 2012 oops! I was too excited! It will be at CJM November 15, 2012 - February 24, 2013. Do you have a favorite Keats illustration?

I love Ezra Jack Keats - wish I could see the exhibit!
I remember loving his illustrations as a child and they are still just as engaging to me now as an adult. His use of color and pattern layering is inspiring.
The Ezra Jack Keats Foundation offers $500 minigrants to public school libraries that encourage creativity in children. Tell your local school librarian to visit http://www.nea.org/grants/39284.htm for more information. The next deadline to submit grant applications is March 15, 2012.
Brings back memories.
Oh, I wish I'd known! I am staying down the block from this museum. I'm booked tomorrow and going back East on Sunday.
This exhibition is actually on view at The Jewish Museum in New York right now, not the Contemporary Jewish Museum: http://www.thejewishmuseum.org/exhibitions/the-snowy-day-and-keats-exhibition
It will be traveling to San Fran next next year.
The Snowy Day was my favorite childhood book EVER. Thanks for posting this.
I collect his books. I love his illustrations.
I collect his books. I love his illustrations.
My favorite childhood book EVER, also. Also fell in love in the narration on the slide show for it. Was a grownup by then but studying children's literature.

A jumpy, skittish line may indicate an overwhelmed ignition system or fuel enrichment problems. As the stakes rise, it would be wise to use a dyno with air/fuel ratio readout capabilities. Competent tuners know what ratios are safe for the type of engine and level of modification of the engine. For anything short of forced induction, it's unlikely you'll see a jumpy power curve.
The key here is to have realistic expectations, know your engine's sweet spot and remember to look at the big picture, not just peak output.

Not Just Skin Food: Eat your way to Healthy Teeth and Gums
If you haven't busted out your Dirty Mouth Toothpowder yet this morning, you'll definitely want to after reading this!
The American Dental Association lists their Top 9 Foods that Damage Your Teeth that berates chewing on ice, eating excessive citrus, dried fruits or sticky foods (like trail mixes) that can stick to your teeth.
And that doesn't include beverages. Coffee can both dry out your mouth and stain your teeth. Alcohol can cause dehydration and dry mouth, as well as a reduction in saliva over time.
Now… we all know that scare tactics can only go so far. So what healthy habits can improve your teeth?
Re-Mineralize. Acids in the foods we eat can remove the minerals in our enamel and lead to tooth decay. Remineralizing is when minerals are deposited back into tooth enamel. So, remineralizing's the goal!
Get some calcium and phosphorous. Perfectly Paleo foods like chicken, leafy greens, and nuts can boost your calcium intake and protect teeth, as well as phosphorous-rich eggs and fish. Raw, grass-fed dairy (milk and cheese if they are in your diet) can neutralize acids in your mouth – an additional bonus. Make eating whole, unrefined foods a habit for your health and your teeth. Crisp apples and pears can sometime "scrape" disrupt plaque on your teeth. These types of fruit also have high levels of water, not just sugar.
Add Vitamin A. Fermented Cod Liver Oil is another at-home remedy for tooth decay. The Paleo Mama shares some great research on her post on cavities and tooth decay that suggests diets lacking in fat-soluble vitamins are the culprit of decay. She offers recommendations like eating high vitamin butter oil daily, using ghee and grass-fed butter in cooking, eating liver regularly, among others.
Mix with Water. If you can't get to some Dirty Mouth Toothpowder soon after coffee, alcohol or the dried figs you just ate, rinse with water. Try to avoid sipping coffee or snacking all day, as you'll just be continuously exposing your teeth to risky sugars and stains.
Banish Bacteria. Not many of us think about the level of acid in our mouths each day, but bacteria in our mouth and saliva cause tooth decay. Primal Life Organics toothpowder is naturally minty and made from a blend of clay that is rich in minerals to neutralize acids and remineralize your teeth – like silica, iron, magnesium, calcium, phosphorous and more. Learn more about pH and the active ingredients in Dirty Mouth Toothpowder.

Acne- More Adults Silently Suffer Than You Think!
I know many suffer from acne- I did until I fixed my diet (Paleo), supplementation AND my skincare. Paleo skincare has definitely helped resolve my breakout issues. For more information from Whole9 about acne, causes and treatments, see this great article and video.
The Skintervention Guide by Liz Wolfe, Nutritional Therapy Practitioner, is another great resource that will guide you through the process of healing your gut via foods, supplements and numerous dietary and skincare techniques. Leaky gut, inflammatory foods, hormonal imbalances, food sensitivities and nutritional deficiencies, as well as the toxic ingredients in commercial skincare, can be causes of acne.
Did You Know: Benzoyl Peroxide, widely used in acne products is a toxic ingredient?? The MSDS states benzoyl peroxide is a possible tumor promoter and may act as a mutagen and produce DNA damage (those pregnant should definitely AVOID benzoyl peroxide). It is toxic by inhalation and an irritant to the eyes, skin and respiratory tract. Benzoyl peroxide is also tested on animals!
The Skintervention Guide directly links you to the supplements and products she recommends. You can find The Skintervention Guide here: http://bit.ly/WCXWdJ
For the Primal Life Organics topical treatment to help heal acne-prone skin with REAL food sources, see our Banished and Beyond line- made with primal dirts (clays) which help to detoxify the facial tissues by pulling the toxins from the skin, and real food sources, such as:
Garlic*, Turmeric*, Rosemary*, Ginger Root*, Cumin Seed*, Rosehip seed*, Carrot Seed*, Himalayan Sea Salt*, Dulse Seaweed*, Birch Bark*, Burdock, Calendula*, Chaste Tree*, Coriander*, Lavender*, Neem*, Soapwort*, Rose*, Tea Tree*, Thyme*, Walnut*, Green Tea*, Rosemary Leaf*, Apple Cider Vinegar*, Witch Hazel* (Alcohol Free), Tamanu*, Hazelnut, Argan*, Pumpkin*, Hemp Seed*, Hyssop*, Bergamot*, Neroli*, Clary Sage*, Orange*, Rosewood*, Rosemary*, Emu, Baobab*, Sea Buckthorn*, Frankincense*, Myrrh*, Geranium*, Chamomile*, Cypress*, Red Thyme*, Helichrysum* *Certified Organic
The premium blend of Primal ingredients in Banished™ and Beyond™ will help:
- Moisturize, balance and restore normal sebum production
- Decrease bacteria that can cause acne
- Provide proper nourishment to your skin via nutrient dense, real food sources, such as essential fatty acids (EFAs), vitamins, anti-oxidants and proteins
- Diminish acne and acne scars
- Enhance cellular repair Increase blood flow and circulation to aid in healing
- Reduce fine lines and wrinkles
Benzoyl Peroxide has been linked to cancer for a number of years and many research journal entries state "benzoyl peroxide is a free radical-generating skin tumor promoting agent." Performing a word search of the words "benzoyl peroxide cancer" in PubMed in the National Library of Medicine produces 102 articles from medical publications dealing with research aspects of BP and cancer. About two-thirds of the research supports linkage between BP and skin cancer.
"In 1995 the FDA changed benzoyl peroxide from a Category I (safe) to a Category III (safety is uncertain) ingredient and stated this action (56 FR 37622) was based on new information that raised a safety concern regarding benzoyl peroxide as a tumor promoter in mice…" Additionally the FDA charged manufacturers with the responsibility of providing this information to consumers so they could make educated decisions. Many manufacturers and product marketers have not provided this information so consumers can be advised of the potential dangers.

Primal Life Organics Welcomes Carrie Perkins Aboard!
I am excited to announce and welcome Carrie Perkins to Primal Life Organics! Business has been increasing daily (thank you!) and I am in desperate need of an assistant to help me with office affairs. Carrie is the perfect candidate. I have known Carrie for almost one year… we see each other almost daily and have become great friends. My husband and I hired her last August to be our nanny for our three young, active, energetic children and she has become a huge part of our family. On Saturday mornings, Mia (almost four) usually will ask "Where's Carrie today?" I have to remind her that Carrie deserves a day off!
Carrie will be assisting me with inventory, order details and shipping during her nanny "downtime" with daily naps. I was very happy when Carrie enthusiastically agreed to join Primal Life Organics! She has witnessed first hand the process of Primal Life Organics going from a vision to reality. She helped me design our logo and website and has been a great "second opinion" when I need it. Welcome Aboard Carrie!
Here is a little insight form Carrie:
After graduating from the University of Akron last May, I began working for Trina, got married and moved into a little house in a new city. Now after several big life changes, I am very happily employed for Trina, the founder and creator of Primal Life Organics. With so much on her plate, I help Trina out with her 3 beautiful children as their nanny. I was thrilled when she asked me to help out with her business as well.
As a former pole-vaulter for Akron's track team I graduated with my BS in Exercise Science, and I am always interested in new and different approaches to healthy living. I believe that the paleo lifestyle is much closer to how we were created to live and thrive than the more common practice of eating the foods and using the products that are the cheapest and most convenient to get. I believe in Trina's vision for Primal Life, and I can vouch for the fact that her products are a great value.

Q: Which team is most likely to be a top 25 dark horse near the end of the 2011 season?
A: Tulsa.
Tulsa is going to be a hot pick to do a lot of damage this year. The reason being 19 starters come back, 10 on one of the nation's most potent offenses. However, there are a few set backs and reasons to be worried. First off, there's the schedule. The odds of Tulsa competing for a spot in the BCS are extremely slim considering they face Oklahoma and Boise State in the non-conference schedule on the road with a pretty solid Oklahoma State team tossed in for good measure. However, in C-USA, this is a team that will likely have a margin of victory hovering around 20+ points per game. Houston and SMU have to come to Skelly Stadium and for the rest of their slate, C-USA has notoriously put up some of the leakier defenses in the nation. Secondly, Todd Graham has abandoned ship and taken over the Pitt Panthers, so there will a bit of a transition with Bill Blankenship getting his first college head coaching job after building a powerhouse high school program at Union High, although Blakenship has been on this staff for the last three seasons. Just ask Todd Dodge how easy going from high school to college is.
But Tulsa put on an offensive fireworks show in their last game against Hawaii in the Hawaii Bowl thanks to an uncharacteristic game from Moniz and the Warriors' run n' shoot, but it is momentum nonetheless. As mentioned, there is experience aplenty on the nation's 5th ranked total offense and 6th ranked scoring offense. Damaris Johnson is back as well and ready to return kicks and punts as well as being a stud as far as all-purpose yardage goes. While Houston and SMU will be very, very dangerous threats to win this division and/or finish in the top 25, I think Tulsa will roll through October and November with an undefeated conference record; that'll be impressive enough for them to enter the top 25 heading into bowl season.

Today's mini-interview is with Thomas Hughes, a mixed-martial arts amateur competitor from Salt Lake City. A native of Ogden, Hughes, an 155-pounder, scored a decision win over Carson Gregory last month at Lindquist Field (see Hughes (on top) in the SE photo at left.
Here's the interview:
Provide age, weight, height and MMA fight style.
Hughes: "I'm 23, I fight at 155lbs, I'm 5 feet, 10 inches and my style is Muay Thai, Brazilian Jiu Jitsu."
What sparked your interest in mixed martial arts?
Hughes: "I grew up fighting throughout school and decided to put it to work!"
Who are some MMA fighters who inspire you and why?
Hughes: "Jose Aldo is my number one, then Duane the Bang Ludwig is for sure number two. They inspire me a ton!"
What are your goals in your MMA career?
Hughes: "To push myself to my limit and see what I can do!"
What's the most important training component in MMA?
Hughes: "To actually train and condition as much as possible."
Thanks Thomas, and we wish you good luck in the future. … Tonight there's a SteelFist card at the Rail Event Center in Salt Lake City. The main even is a big deal, matching top 170-pound pro prospects Mike Arrant and Carl Dieckmann. It's a five round fight for a Utah title, but more importantly it's a bridge fight for both; the winner will likely move closer to higher pro levels of MMA. Also on the card is once-beaten 135-pounder Daniel Stratton who fights Gabriel Pelayo. Card is here. … On August 9, SteelFist and Jeremy Horn have competing cards in Salt Lake City and Ogden. On the SteelFist card at the Rail Event Center, Jon Neal, 5-0, of Ogden, fights Scottie Casey, 14-2, in a five-rounder for the Utah lightweight title. A good co-main of 180 pounders matches Jared Hatch versus Utah vet Mike Crisman. Card is here. In Ogden at the Weber Fairgrounds that night, Top of Utah fighters Patrick Reeves and Justin Roberts compete in separate bouts on a Jeremy Horn card. There is also a Jeremy Horn show later this month, June 19, at the Complex. Paris Swain meets Craig Ross in the main bout. Others fighting on the card include Salvador Sanchez and Aaron Sutton. A list of Utah fight events is here.
Boxing: There was a good card at the Davis Conference Center last Saturday. Winners included Billy Zumbrun, Eddie Cordova, and Jesse West, who made his pro debut. My SE recap is here. CCC Promotions hopes to have another local card in August. … Two local pro boxers, Cordova of Clearfield, and Logan's Christian Nava, are heading to Fantasy Springs Casino in Indio, Calif., to fight on a professional card. Welterweight Cordova fights undefeated Errol Spence, 6-0, and middleweight Nava fights Angel Osuna, 10-3-1. The main event, between light welterweights Frankie Gomez and Demarcus Corley, will be nationally televised. … Several young amateur boxers in the Ogden area are heading to the National Jr. Golden Gloves next week in Mesquite, Nev. They are Mack Storey, Santana Decarlo, Zander Caffall, Kolbie Tiffany Tiffany and Preston Tiffany.

- Lousy serviceEdwarcDined on 9/27/2014The food was great I must admit! They were able to adjust our reservation without too much consternation. However, the soup I ordered as a starter came after the entree arrived. The server never delivered the green tea that I ordered. He seemed to be preoccupied because it was a busy night!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

- FyiOpenTable Diner Since 2012Dined on 9/26/2014Swrvice was slow and the person who provided our food was placing it on the table not asking who's dish it was, then he made a comment can't all of you just share. We do share but would rather have our dish next to us then across the table. We found it very rude.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great Gluten free/vegetarian lunchPseudoFoodieDined on 9/26/2014Menu for gluten free, vegetarian dishes was quite extensive for lunch. I ordered the vegetables with konnyaku noodles which was really good. The restaurant was quite busy for lunch yet it was not too loud to carry on a conversation. I would definitely come back to dineSpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

- Amazing foodLuvfoodDined on 9/17/2014We heard this was listed as one of the best Chinese food places in the country so we had to try it. The cashew chicken and lettuce wraps were amazing!!! Loved the BBQ pork in our mixed noodle dish and plan to order as an app next visit.

- This was not our first timetomwVIPDined on 9/4/2014but the food was so bland it will be our last. Disregard the chili rating on the menu, there was no spice heat and both entrées were barely warm.
- Possibly The Best Chinese FoodMichaelFDined on 8/31/2014The Rendezvous is probably the best Chinese food in San Diego County. The flavors in each dish, at times both bold or subtle, were a delight to taste.Special Features:
- Outstanding food and serviceEnjoytheFinerThingsinLifeDined on 8/30/2014When we first arrived, we were not too happy about the table being right next to the kitchen; however the staff was very nice, gave us a few drinks on the house and made us feel welcome. They were very attentive both as to the food and ambiance and overall made the night for us very entertaining which is difficult to do with my party coming off a long and tiring day. The food was absolutely delicious, especially the Kung Pao Filet & BBQ pork fried rice. The nice thing I guess about sitting next to the kitchen was we got to see all the different dishes coming out and I must say you really couldn't go wrong everything smelled and looked delicious. Overall I would say this is a new gem in Del Mar and the prices are reasonable for the qualitySpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Small portionsDinerdiverDined on 8/30/2014All four of us thought the portions were way too small. I weigh 103 pounds and really don't eat much, and I even thought the portions were too small. We ordered the shrimp and lobster sauce and the Dim Sum and our friends ordered a noodle dish and shrimp and lobster.
- Fabulous and attentiveMammaTDined on 8/26/2014Having been gluten free since before it was cool it's always wonderful to find a restaurant with a full GF menu, which they have. I bring friends there for lunch whenever I can – it's a great place for sharing food and everything is always fresh and scrumptious.Special Features:
- Going down hillyabbadoobieDined on 8/22/2014Really used to love this place. However, recently the quality has been down. Food is inconsistent. Recent follies, walnut shrimp that was not adequately fried. Inner shell batter was still wet and mealy. Peppery calamari coating batter too thick and not consistently peppered. Tofu/Vegetable dish had broccoli that was burned on the florets to where it was bitter. This place is really pricey and can't afford missteps like this.Special Features:
- Del Mar Rendezvoux2foodloversDined on 8/21/2014Once again, we had a great meal with excellent service. It's become one of our favorite spots. The wine list is terrific and very good prices.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

- greatest restaurantmomoDined on 8/13/2014Amazing evening.... "5" star food and "5" star staffSpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Really good Dim Sum2foodloversDined on 8/7/2014We really enjoy the expanded Dim Sum menu. It's so good that we haven't tried the main dishes in a while. I wish that the kitchen didn't close so early at lunch time. It would be better if the kitchen was open until at least 3. The wine list is outstanding.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Another Excellent MealCrochetsmithDined on 8/3/2014We have eaten at Del Mar Rendezvous several times now and have never been disappointed. They have the most flavorful Wor Wanton Soup I've ever had and the Honey-Glazed Spareribs are fantastic. This time I decided to try something spicy so I ordered the Seafood XO. It was wonderful! My SIL ordered the Lemon Chicken and said that it was very tasty as well. There was also enough food that we both took home some. For another night's meal. I'm starting to salivate just thinking about it...Special Features:
- CindyVIPDined on 8/2/2014First time dining here. There were some hits and misses with our order. The server recommended the lettuce wraps which were terrible, but they did take it off of our bill. Nice wine list and priced well. WIll definately try this place again.
- Small dark seating area - good foodMom2fourDined on 8/1/2014I thought this was one of the plaza's upper level restaurants with nice views when I booked it so I was surprised to find it on the street level and be seated at a tight, dark corner booth along the back wall. Food was ok. I ordered off the gluten free menu and my shrimp fried rice was white rice with some egg and 12 shrimp. Pretty bland. My friends thought their dishes were very good. We had lettuce wraps to start which were good once we found the waiter and reminded him to bring the sauce that went with it. Overall it was just ok. I probably won't be back.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- GFJanoDined on 8/1/2014We really appreciate the gluten-free menu as well as the staff's awareness of the needs of their gluten-free diners. Great service! Thank you.Special Features:
- Better than BeijinggoodfoodwonoiseVIPDined on 7/30/2014Peking Duck at Del Mar Rendezvous surpasses that served in Beijing at restaurant visited by Nixon.Special Features:
- Shanghai Dumplings2foodloversDined on 7/30/2014Love the expanded dim sum offerings and that you offer dim sum for dinner. We'll be back soon.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Best Chinese Food Ever!!alchelesnikDined on 7/25/2014I'm not really a Chinese Food fan, but I think I've been converted!! Outstanding food and service. We thought perhaps with the locale, we might get good food but in tiny portions like most "fancy" restaurants. We were pleasantly surprised with perfect sized portions of amazing food. The beef was so tender, it melted in our mouths. We can't wait to go back and next time, we'll bring our 7 year because he'll love it too!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Above average dining experienceOpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 7/25/2014Visited this restaurant for the first time recently with out of town guests. I was compelled by high reviews. Our table was ready at 6pm the and server came promptly to offer drinks. (which we did not order) An eggroll appetizer was offered at no charge and was very good. We asked our server for some specifics about several dishes, and ordered. Our orders took some time to come out. I believe my water glass was filled 5 times before we saw any food. Food was above average, comparable to our local Chin's, but more expensive. What annoyed me was the constant interruption from staff/management! Someone would come by and interject in our private conversation or fill a water glass every 5 minutes, the whole night long.Special Features:
- JBirdDined on 7/23/2014Best Hot and Sour Soup I have ever eaten! Great service and very friendly staff. Always enjoy the Walnut Shrimp and the duck wraps.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- overrated & overpricedgourmanDined on 7/22/2014This place being best Chinese restaurant in Del Mar five years running means real Chinese food fans should travel to another North County town if they want good Chinese fare. The hot and sour soup was neither- it's just egg drop soup with soy sauce added for color with one piece of tofu and one paper-thin mushroom. The entrees were just okay, but the prices were outrageously high. We spend a week at a nearby spa every summer and will never go to Del Mar Rendezvous again.
- SamalsarVIPDined on 7/17/2014Recommended by friends so we took our Vegan guests. Nice staff, quick service, good vegan choices.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Always a Great MealCrochetsmithDined on 7/13/2014Now that the County Fair is over we returned to Del Mar Rendezvous recently. We had been avoiding the traffic, but we missed the great food. It was such a pleasure to taste those honey glazed spareribs again! They are so tender and the meat just falls off the bones. We also had one of my favorite dishes, the Five Spice Braised Beef. Here too the meat is wonderfully tender and the baby bok choy is a perfect accompaniment. The servings are large enough that I was able to bring almost half of this dish along with some of the wor wanton soup home for a second excellent meal this week. The service here is always excellent as well. I highly recommend this restaurant.Special Features:
- Good FoodNuncProTuncDined on 7/12/2014Great food and wonderful vegetarian menu that has a lot of vegan options as well. The service was great and the food was flavorful. I found there too be too much sweet flavors at times but you could ask for spicier.Special Features:
- Favorite in Del MarFreddo42Dined on 7/5/2014Another wonderful evening meal at Rendezvous. Our party started in Coronado and found ourselves running late for a 7:00 pm reservation. A call ahead meant no- problems and we were met with a warm and gracious welcome! The service has been getting better and better and it's clear that this is from a dedicated management that has a great focus on the details that make dining gracious and comfortable. The food is consistently well prepared and for our taste, some of the best Chinese cusine in San Diego. That's what makes this a local favorite for us and so many others.Special Features:
- Two thumbs up!PaulysPicks4388Dined on 6/28/2014Yummy food at reasonable prices; great and friendly service. A local gem. Highly recommendedSpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Always Wonderful!GailCVIPDined on 6/28/2014Del Mar Rendezvous is always a perfect choice for lunch. This time we were in need of vegetarian options and we found lots of delicious choices! My friend and I enjoyed the ample portions and even took home some leftovers. I now will be recommending Del Mar Rendezvous to my veggie friends!Special Features:
- KiranDined on 6/22/2014Some of the food items were nice. They messed up the order for us, we asked for veggie Singapore Konnyaku which is supposed to be spicy, but what we got was no where close to be even mildly spicy. Another friend ordered with egg same dish, which was totally different. The waiter also forgot to put our fried rice order. It felt we were a burden for the waiter that day, he didn't even smile. Other people who came to put the food on table were more friendly.Special Features:
- Unique Asian CuisineRBG831Dined on 6/21/2014The menu is very eclectic with a remarkably interesting take on standard Chinese themes, as well as many Japanese favorites. Excellent quality preparation and one of the finest, least expensive wine lists in San Diego County.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

Post 12 Frankfort Pursuit Leads to the Arrest of a Wanted Person
Date of News Release: 03/11/2011
(Frankfort, Ky.) -- On Friday morning, March 11, 2011 at 1:42 AM Tpr. Brian Smith observed and attempted to stop a vehicle traveling at 93 MPH eastbound. The vehicle exited I-64 at the 65 mile marker and returned to I-64 westbound in Woodford County. The driver of the vehicle refused to stop. The eluding vehicle continued west on I-64 into Franklin County. The Franklin County Sheriff's Deputies successfully deployed spike strips deflating one of the eluding vehicle front tires. The driver of the eluding vehicle continued fleeing west on I-64. Three miles later the driver stops his vehicle and runs into a wooded area on the westbound side on I-64. A perimeter was established after losing sight of the suspect.
The Frankfort Police Department canine unit was able to establish a track and the suspect was located hiding in a tree. The investigation revealed that the driver Arron Moore was under the influence and that he had stolen the vehicle earlier that day out of Louisville, KY.
Arron Moore, age 27, of Louisville, KY, is charged with two counts of Fleeing and Evading 1st, DUI 1st, Possession of Marijuana, Speeding, Reckless Driving and several other traffic charges.
He also wanted on four felony warrants out of Louisville for Robbery 1st, Unlawful Imprisonment and two counts of Trafficking in a Controlled Substance (cocaine). He has been lodged in the Franklin County Detention Center. The investigation is continuing by the Kentucky State Police Frankfort Post.

ISBN pb: 1 85343 504 X
LIST PRICE pb: £16.95 ($25.00)
PUB DATE: September 2000
|DESCRIPTION: SLAPPS (Strategic
Lawsuits Against Public Participation), well known in the United States
of America, are on the increase in the United Kingdom. SLAPPS are court
actions taken by powerful or wealthy individuals or organizations against
ordinary people who seek to express their views and to take part in the
decision-making processes which affect their lives. Their effect is meant
to "chill" through legal intimidation - to stop the critics and end the
debates. A steady growth of SLAPPs has occurred where government and business
sees their interests being threatened by those who dare to rock the boat.
The court case becomes a weapon in a larger political war, tying people
up in court rooms, sapping their energy and money, carrying the fear of
severe legal sanction. In this way the law is used not to protect a valid
legal claim but rather to frighten and silence those who are bold enough
to criticise, question and speak out.
Looking at various high-profile cases the author considers both the theory and practice of attacks upon free speech in a modern democracy. In the new era of human rights in the United Kingdom the author poses important questions about what the use of such legal actions tells us about the health of our democracy at the turn of the millennium

Love 'em!
Love these earrings. Not too big, not too small, and they're light so they don't make my earlobe droop.
Nice style, careless construction
I wanted to love these, but the construction is subpar. In my pair, each hangs at a different angle, so they look uneven when worn. BN quality is usually better.
Beautiful and well made
These are beautiful and well made. Bought them as a gift for my wife and she wears them almost every day. It's hard to tell from the photo but the mesh is essentially a flat surface that has been curved to create a pleasing shape.
She won't stop wearing them
Even better than in the picture. They were for a present and there aren't nicer options anywhere near the value.
Very pretty. I have had it on twice and both times have been repeatedly asked where I purchased those from!
Smaller than I'd thought but pretty and lovely
A little smaller than what I've thought. Never bought jewelry online. They could be a little bit bigger but other than that, the earrings are pretty.
I love these earrings
I received many compliments when I wore these earrings. The are very unique, and I love them.

Sometimes I try and fight them back, other times I'm
desperate just for one.
At times my tears dry up like water in the desert , I have
to go inward searching for them.
So many times they come unexpectedly like a suppose to
be a wonderful marriage, ending.
Then you are forced to see the child within of the past.
She stands small naked in front of you with eyes filled tears.
Her past, my past right there facing me all the truths finally
hitting me like bullets from guns.
Unfortunately our past, my past surface at times when we lease
want it or expect it.
No sense in getting angry, mad or become depressed it comes
like the rains that flood the earth.
Be thankful for the tears they are a cleansing for ones soul and mind.
They are are like a new morning with dew on the ground refreshing.
They wash away the filth, the ugly, the guilt, the blame of a broken life.
Today is a bright day sun shinning, warm breeze I embrace it with all
I am, throwing my arms upward, I am singing praises.
Surrounding myself with people who love me, even when I mess up.
Laughter is in my days now, I rebuke those of my past that made such
horrible choices to abuse the child, shame on them.
No laughter, no sunshine should surround them, they should be made
to live in darkness, locked up with no entry, forgotten by all.
They tried to destroy the child but today she reclaims her soul and mind.

Today, Public Policy Polling released a poll showing Mary Burke behind Scott Walker by only a three point margin--48% to 45%--and former U.S. Senator Russ Feingold beating current U.S. Senator Ron Johnson by a much larger 47% to 41% margin, in a potential rematch.
Other results of interest:
PPP has had a pretty good, though not perfect, record recently in Wisconsin. In 2012, they said both Baldwin and Obama would win by three points (Obama ended up winning by seven and Baldwin six) and in the recall election they said Walker would win by three and he ended up winning by seven.
Sen. Ron Johnson (R-WI) Wednesday voted against closing debate on the bipartisan deal to end the federal government shutdown and avoid a federal debt default. The vote in favor was 83-16. In the following vote to approve the measure itself -- 81-18 -- Johnson again voted no.
Remember well, Wisconsin citizens: Your freshman U.S. senator was among a handful of Republicans who actively sought to let the US government shutdown continue and to force this, the wealthiest nation on the planet, to stiff its creditors and greatly harm its credit rating. Congress previously incurred those debts in budget spending approvals, more than a few of which Johnson supported. But when it came time to actually cut checks to pay the government's bills, Johnson instead acted like a deadbeat.
"Oh, my name is Ron Johnson and I come from Wisconsin..."
Today while puttering around the house I overheard a blurb on Milwaukee Public Radio's WUWM-FM from Milwaukee Magazine. Be sure, we were told, to check out the magazine's new story on Sen. Ron Johnson and his -- I swear to god -- "meteoric" rise to prominence in the US Senate.
Well, the lady of the house is always telling me my hearing isn't so good these days, so I traipsed over to the magazine's web site to see if I'd gotten that right. The good news is that the actual article doesn't use the word "meteoric," but it still fawns over Johnson, in the way other publications (maybe we should call them Republications) previously fawned over other GOP ultraconservatives who supposedly got religion and converted themselves into reasonable, compromising people.
1929 map had area of Stephen Lathrop's development drawn as a lake.Meet real estate developer not-so-extraordinaire, Stephen Lathrop.
In 1990, Lathrop bought a tract of swamp land, in a floodplain, on the cheap, with visions of turning it into a real estate development. The area he bought was called the Dobrey Slough and, as the name of this parcel implies, it was a low lying marshy land on the outskirts of one of the Mississippi River's favorite flooding areas: Granite City, Illinois. Did I mention it was in a floodplain?
Bangladesh, The Ultimate "Right-to-Work" State
Scott Walker, the Club for Growth, The McIver Institute, ALEC, the Heritage Foundation and other 'Free Market' think tanks continue to make villains out of unions and pressure states to become "right-to -work" states. Walker did promise Diane Hendricks (one of his Plutocrat co-owners) that he would "divide and conquer" the Wisconsin's middle class in his determination to make Wisconsin a "right-to-work" state. He has done this successfully, with the help of right-wing radio, and now Wisconsinites are pitted against each other, private employees are pitted against public employees and rural against urban dwellers. But, no reduction in wages and workers rights will satisfy the plutocrats who own Walker. As long as there is a 14 year girl in Bangladesh who they can force to work for $38 a week, these billionaires will not be happy with American workers making anything more than minimum wage. In fact, Ron Johnson, our Senior Senator recently told a constituent that he supports the lowering of the minimum wage as a stimulant to job creation. Just as there is no end to their greed and no amount of money or profit that will satisfy the free market folks, there is no limit to the sacrifice that they will expect from labor and workers to increase their profits.
Most Americans view the Social Security as exactly what it is: A system that they pay-into while they are working and that they get back out when they retire. U.S. Senator Ron Johnson has a different view, saying in a February 22 speech, that Social Security is "candy" that the "Left is giving away":
Once again Our Dumb Senator attempts to bully down someone who disagrees with him. This is in and of itself no big surprise, except that in this case he's arguing economics with Paul Krugman. Remind me again - which of them has the Nobel in Economics?
On February 22, U.S. Senator Ron Johnson spoke at an event called, "David Horowitz's West Coast Retreat." During his speech, Johnson said that the reason people vote Democratic is because liberals "control our schools" and have intentionally "dumbed down our population" as part of a strategy to control the populace:
Wisconsin's uber-conservative junior US senator surprisingly hit one out of the park today on behalf of progressives and activists. In an opinion column in the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel, Ron Johnson wrote:
The United States has a long history of corruption, mismanagement and appeasement of regimes that are determined to develop weapons of mass destruction, limit freedom and commit genocide. These are indisputable facts.
The United States has a long history of corruption, mismanagement and appeasement of regimes that are determined to develop weapons of mass destruction, limit freedom and commit genocide. These are indisputable facts.
Wow! I didn't know the guy had it in him. But, obviously, past and continuing US abuse of international war conventions, its use during the last Bush administration of torture like water-boarding, its tremendously huge and destabilizing nuclear arsenal and continuing moves to curb the freedom of Americans to vote, to assemble, to speak freely and more. These are indisputable facts, all right!
Aurora, Colorado is only the latest sensation. Every so often, at least once a year, some locale in the United States of America -- a small town, a big city, or even a military base -- will experience the horror and helplessness of a beserker who arms himself to the teeth with semi-automatic weapons and shoots into crowds, wounding many and killing more than a few.
Wisconsin progressives have watched with disgust as Republicans and their minions have turned last year's million-plus signatures on various recall petitions into a set of McCarthyesque black lists. Or maybe it's more like a set of Nixonian "enemies lists." In either case, any Wisconsin resident who signed a petition to recall any Republican from Scott Walker on down last year has since been put at risk of being singled out -- and called out -- by these scurrilous political opportunists.
"I noticed that right away from the first day I met him. Here's a business guy." -- Ron Johnson on Mitt Romney.

Two Wisconsin Republicans, Rep. Sean Duffy and Sen. Ron Johnson, are among the plainest=speakers in Congress, The Oshkosh Northwestern reports.
Whether that's a good thing or a bad thing may be debatable. But we suspect in Johnson's case it is not a deliberate dumbing down so people can understand him. It fits perfectly with his simple view of the world. Here's more:
Staffer may be toastResponding to reports at Politico.com and elsewhere suggesting he is on the outs with his staff for being testy and mouthy, Sen. Ron Johnson (and he comes from Wisconsin) angrily denied everything. Here's the money quote:
"The only true part of the story is they called me impatient," Johnson said. "I'm impatient because we're bankrupting this nation and the political class in Washington is not owning up to that fact."
"The only true part of the story is they called me impatient," Johnson said. "I'm impatient because we're bankrupting this nation and the political class in Washington is not owning up to that fact."
In a heated exchange during yesterday's budget committee hearing, an exasperated Defense Sec. Leon Panetta said Ron Johnson's comments were "untrue" and that he was being "unfair" when Johnson said that the proposed cuts in Defense spending, "changes focus from, really, defending the nation to, really, protecting entitlements."
Of course, what Johnson leaves out of his charge is that defense cuts were agreed to by a majority of Republicans in the house and Senate approved the debt-reduction deal last year.
Johnson also leaves out that lowering the debt was a central part of his campaign when he ran against Russ Feingold.

Company DetailsUpdate
Aka Aki is a Germany-based mobile social networking site that wants to let users discover and connect with members as they go about their days. They have two different versions of the site, a mobile version and a web version. The web version has all the standard features like profiles, friends and messaging, but, the mobile version is much different with its Bluetooth-sensing capabilities.
The mobile version uses a combination of Bluetooth, GPS and WiFi spots to find similar users within your area and alerts you via your mobile device. You can then use you device to view their profiles and connect with them. For instance, you could be at a grocery store, restaurant or party and find people to connect with. This could be good for finding strangers with common interests but it would probably be better for running into friends you didn't know were going to be in the area.
If your mobile Bluetooth connection is activated, with no particular application running, you can be detected by other members while you're on the move, and check afterwards who you've met. You can also know which members came at a given location (bar, etc.) in the past.
The mobile version's Bluetooth-sensing capabilities does put it at risk to open connection attacks and unwanted solicitations.
Other mobile social networks include MocoSpace, Loopt, Zyb and Facebook.

To those who really know how to measure such an accomplishment the answer is easy - Johnny Campbell.
The Baja 1,000 is the oldest, longest and toughest Off-Road race in the world. Less tame than the Wild West, racers in the Baja must overcome mountains, deserts, forests, rivers, wild animals, banditos and fierce competition at speeds of more than 100 miles per hour for 1,000 miles just to finish. To be victorious is superhuman and to win again and again is almost impossible. Many consider the Baja 1,000 the greatest test of man and machine in the world. And Johnny Campbell is the undisputed "King of Baja"; residents of the famous peninsula call him "El Campion." Johnny Campbell has won the Baja 1,000 a record 11 times!
But this is more than the story of a great racer, this is a story of a boy who overcame personal tragedy, who followed a calling and navigated his way to become a great champion who literally took, the road less travelled. Join us as we follow Johnny's incredible life and career through the eyes of family, friends, and competitors. This is an intimate look inside the continuous test of will, mind, body and faith that it takes to be a True Champion.

Porcelain Ludwig Oktoberfest Puzzle Stein
You Might Also Like
- Product Description
The body design features the most famous King of Bavaria surrounded by Bavarian blue images of the various castles that were credited to him. This design is applied to the traditional "puzzle" porcelain body in which numerous holes pass through the top half of the stein body and the along the lip rim and handle. There is only one special way in which to drink from this stein without spilling. First, hold the tankard with the left hand, then plug the hole that is underneath the handle with one finger. There is another hole inside the mug at the very base of the handle. The handle is actually hollow and functions as a straw. The liquid passes through the handle and to the first hole on the lip rim. Therefore, to perform the joke, the drinker needs to actually draw the drink through the hole rather than trying to pour the liquid all the way up to the mouth of the stein. An attractive finishing touch is a porcelain lithophane (see-through) bottom picture.

Good. I used nonfat yogurt without any problems.
Chickpea Curry with Yogurt
GayleR Posted: 02/14/11
JasonM Posted: 05/15/09
This was just exploding with lots of exotic flavors. It was 100% worth the extra effort to seek out the whole spices called for. I used fat free greek-style yogurt instead of whole milk yogurt (by accident, actually), but the texture of the greek yogurt made up for whatever might've been lost by the lower fat content. It was very flavorful and creamy. We will definitely make this again.
annbrag Posted: 09/13/11
My family really enjoyed this. Even the kids. It was delicious. We omitted the pepper and it was perfect.
KCSeattle Posted: 09/09/11
This dish is delicious!!! Easy to make and made the whole house smell amazing.
Theresa00 Posted: 08/15/12
I have made this dish a number of times now and am thrilled with its fool-proof results that just burst with flavor every time. Also it is the first curry I have ever made that did not call for "curry powder" which can really vary in taste depending on what blend you get. It is now my go-to recipe for any event when I expect vegetarians in the house....but omnivores like it too!
lovemysouschef Posted: 06/12/12
I was so disappointed in this dish after reading all these wonderful reviews! It held such promise with so many wonderful spices, and it smelled great as it cooked and had a great texture. However, the flavor was seriously lacking. I tried adding salt, pepper, more garam masala, more tomatoes, etc., all to no avail. Again, it had great texture but very little flavor, especially considering all the tasty ingredients. I won't be making it again.
Heidelind1 Posted: 04/09/14
I made this twice. The first time I followed the recipe exactly and was not impressed. I made it again last night and this time added more salt and pepper (so simple) and that made all the difference for me. My husband repeatedly mentioned how much he liked it. And yes, even my four year old ate it, although it took some effort to get him to try it.
