Dried Sweetened Cranberries
1 Attachment(s)
I was looking at an old HC recipe the other day that called for dried sweetened cranberries so when I went to the store I picked up a package to read the label. I guess I was not real suprised but it was still a bit of sticker shock to find that they were almost 100 carbs per cup.
Anyway, last night while I was watching a movie I decided to try my hand at making some of these myself.
1 cup raw cranberries
1/4 cup sf Monin Blackberry syrup
1 T. DiabetiSweet
Cut cranberries into 1/4 to 1/8 depending on size.
In a small bowl, soak cranberries in syrup until the cranberries absorb most of the liquid.
Transfer soaked cranberries and spread out onto a non-stick foil lined cookie pan.
Sprinkle the top of the cranberries with the diabetisweet.
Bake in a preheated 250 degree oven for about 2 hours or until the cranberies are dry and chewy and tacky to the touch (the texture of moist rasins) but will not stick to the foil.
Let cool completely and store in a air tight jar in the fridge until readyto use.
These are 8 carbs for the 1 cup of of the cranberries plus the couple carbs for the diabetisweet but wow, what a carb bargain (saving approx 90 carbs) over the store bought ones.
They are quite easy to make and since they are bake at the low temperture do not need to be watched real closely.
Love this recipe.
Do you think the freeze dried ones could be reconstituted with syrup and sweetener, then baked, theoretically speaking?
This is my hard day of work. . .or I'd try it. I'll give it a try with freeze dried tomorrow when it isn't 78 degrees outside. LOL! only 68 degrees tomorrow.
Great idea, Kevin!
Do you think this would work with Raspberry DaVinci's and Splenda?
That's a good idea about cutting up the cranberries. It will cut the drying out time a lot. I don't know why I never thought of that! I was wondering if you would do the same thing to cherries. I would like to put cherries in some cashew butter fudge.
where do we find the Monin syrups? Online only?? Kevin--this recipe--like all of yours--is so inspiring!!
Netrition sells it. Just click the Monin <---- link.
With DaVinci syrup, polydextrose could be added for texture.
I read awhile back that dried cranberries don't plump back up as much as some fruits/berries do when they are soaked.
Oh my gosh, Kevin, you read my mind. Thanks so much for the recipe. I would really like to try this with erythritol. I will probably use the DaVincis Raspberry and PolyD. THANKS!!
I remember a thread a year ago from a former contributor, scott123. If I remember correctly, he used polyD+sweetner blend, soaked the cranberries and then dried them in a food dehydrator.
Polyd effect me too much, thats why I went this route.
Greath method, Kevin. I used to work with a dried fruit company and this is pretty much how they are done commercially with a syrup soaking.
Thank you, thank you, thank you! I have been looking everywhere for unsweetened dried cranberries with no luck and was going to break down and get a dehydrator, just for this! I can't wait to try this out! Thanks again Kevin for sharing all of your fantastic recipes and ideas!
Hmmmmm, just a thought, if you have marachino cherry flavored syrup. . .would these be like faux cherries?
Just a thought. . .of course, dried. . .but I'm got my thinking cap on. . .
Also, the leftover juice is SO delicious - I'm making it into a jelly or thickened topping for cheesecake or ice cream or something.

Here is the HC recipe I was looking at that lead me to making the sf dried sweetened cranberries.
Cranberry Pecan Squash Bars
1 cup cake and cookie flour mix (carbquik version)
1/4 cup granular erythritol
1/4 cup diabetisweet brown
1/2 tsp. splenda quick pack
8 oz. cooked squash or pumpkin
1/4 cup vegetable oil
2 eggs
1 tsp. baking powder
1 tsp ground cinnamon
1/2 tsp. baking soda
1/4 tsp. salt
1/2 cup sf dried cranberries
1/2 cup chopped pecans
Line a 9 x 9 baking dish with non-stick foil and set aside.
In a mixing bowl combine dry ingredients.
Then in electric mixer combine squash, oil, eggs, and dry ingredients until smooth batter is formed.
Fold in nuts and cranberries.
Transfer batter and spread evenly in foil lined baking dish.
Bake in a 350 degree preheated oven for 25 to 30 minutes until golden brown and slight impression remains when touched in the center.
Cool completely and then frost.
Cream Cheese Frosting
3 oz. cream cheese
1 1/2 T. softened butter
1/2 tsp. vanilla
1/4 cup powdered erythritol
Whisk all ingredient together until smooth and creamy
Yum......these are so good, moist and very rich!!:up:
9 servings @ 3 carbs each.
Oh my gosh, Kevin! Thank you SO MUCH for this. :up: How lucky we are to have you here! Your discoveries have sure made a BIG difference to all of us on this WOE.
I've had a recipe that I had wanted to make, but like you--when I read the label, it was such a shock to see the carb count on dried cranberries. I'll post it here, maybe someone else might like to try it. And Kevin, if you have any thoughts about it, please comment as to what changes you'd suggest...one that I'd questioned is the amount of butter...is that more than you'd use?
I don't know just where I found this--just that it's in my file...sorry if it's already been here at LCF..I have nothing noted other than where it really originated, as stated at the top, and the other notes aren't mine either.
COCONUT-CRANBERRY CHEWS Source: December/2001 Sunset Magazine
This was the grand prize winner in a cookie contest Sunset had and I can see why--It is yummy!
1 1/2 cup butter or margarine, at room temp(3/4 pound)
2 cups sugar
1 tablespoon grated orange peel
2 teaspoons vanilla
3 1/4 cups all purpose flour (figured I'd use Kevin's LC flour mix)
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 cups dried cranberries
1 1/2 cups sweetened flaked dried coconut
In a large bowl, with a mixer on medium speed, beat 1 1/2 cups butter, sugar, orange peel, and vanilla until smooth.
In a medium bowl, mix flour, baking powder, and salt. Add to butter mixture, stir to mix, then beat on low speed until dough comes together, about 5 minutes (see note on bottom) Mix in dried cranberries and coconut.
Shape dough into 1 inch balls and place about 2 inches apart on buttered baking sheets.
Bake at 350° until edges begin to brown for 8 to 11 minutes. (Shorter time will yield a chewier cookie, longer baking time will yield a crispier cookie. I prefer them crisp) If baking 2 sheets at once in one oven, switch their position half way thru baking. Let cookies cool on sheets for 5 minutes, then use a wide spatula to transfer to racks to cool completly.
Note: The mixture will look dry until it comes together as a dough. If it is too crumbly to form into balls, the dough needs to be mixed longer. It should be a smooth homogeneous mass.
Note: I have made these at 5000 feet and just above sea level and they come out great. However, they are not as good when I have made them at 8000 ft.
If anyone tries these before I get a chance, post what you think...ok?
Okay, the faux dried sour cherry experiment was a HUGE success!! They taste just like the real thing! I also made pie filling and it is fantastic. The Tart and Sour really made a big difference. I am going to make those coconut chews next. YUM!!
Gosh Heather...your cherry experiment sounds great, too! Hope I still have time to get hold of fresh cranberries before they disappear! Who carries this Tart & Sour by LorAnn...did you get it from them directly? I'm also interested in the pie filling you mentioned......could you share a little more about how you did that?
Thanks, Jen
Edited to add that I now see where you found LorAnn Tart & Sour.
OMG Kevin! I have looked at several recipes that I really wanted to try that used sweetened dried cranberries and, like you, saw how many carbs were in them and decided it wasn't worth it. Now there is hope. Thanks for being a pioneer again! Those bars look wonderful and if they taste as good as they look I'd say you have a winner! I'm having guests for dinner next week and think I'll try these for dessert with a scoop of lc vanilla ice cream! Have you had reports from non-lowcarbers on the taste?
faux dried cherries and cherry pie filling
[QUOTE=Jennywren;9631124]Gosh Heather...your cherry experiment sounds great, too! Hope I still have time to get hold of fresh cranberries before they disappear! Who carries this Tart & Sour by LorAnn...did you get it from them directly? I'm also interested in the pie filling you mentioned......could you share a little more about how you did that?
Thanks, Jen
Okay, here goes. I used 9 bags of cranberries (cut in half) so the quantities in the syrup probably look really high! I used:
1 whole bottle of Davincis - Cherry flavored
1/2 bottle LorAnn's cherry flavor
2 Tbsp Tart and Sour
3 c. granulated erythritol
1/4 tsp powdered Stevia + 2 packets each of other sweeteners - optional
3 c. water
3 heaping Tbsp. Not/Sugar
juice of one lemon
I cooked the syrup and added the berries to the hot liquid after I had cut them in half. I let them soak overnight. After I had removed all the soaked berries from the liquid and saw how much liquid I had leftover I decided to put one pans worth back in the pot and cook them into a pie filling. After they boiled for awhile (one hour on low) I let them cool then put them in the fridge. They were good but they are even better today after they have had a chance to soak in the cherry syrup! They taste quite a bit like maraschino cherries - I could probably add a littlle almond flavoring and they would be even closer but I really like the way they taste now. Also, I sprinkled powdered erythritol over the berries I dried right before I put them in the oven to dry.
Hope this makes sense. I'm afraid I'm rather a slap-and-dash cook.
Not to worry, Heather...it works for me. I went today and bought a buncha cranberries. Stores here turned out to be featuring specials on them this week! Want to do some like Kevin's.... and some into cherries!
Think if I can get a good result, I might try to freeze some (dried) for a little "stash". Do you think freezing might work? Kevin--Any thoughts? I imagine they'd keep for awhile just in the fridge, but I wanted to extend a supply out a little further than that, if possible. Course, I could try some and see for myself. ;)
Thanks alot for your help, Heather.
I would think if you vacumm seal them to keep the air and moisture out while freezing it will work fine.
I keep miine in the freezer. It works great. That's why I made so many at once. Good luck!

PHL to use info gathered by US surveillance plane in case vs China
- Details
- Category: Nation
31 Jul 2013
- Written by Recto Mercene
FOREIGN Secretary Albert del Rosario on Wednesday said information gathered by the US P-3C "Orion" could be used by the Philippines in its arbitration case against China.
"It's useful for us to be gathering this information which can be utilized for our arbitration case. I think to that extent, it might be useful," del Rosario said.
He said the information provided by the American plane is of significant importance to the Philippines "because of our interest of what's going on within our exclusive economic zone [EEZ] and our continental shelf.
"We want to know if there are any intrusions."
Currently, a five-member panel of the International Tribunal of the Law of the Sea (Itlos) based in the Netherlands is hearing the case filed by the Philippines against China for intruding into the country's EEZ and occupying islands that the country claims as part of its continental shelf.
This week the Department of Foreign Affairs confirmed that American P-3C Orion surveillance aircraft have been monitoring the South China Sea and the US is sharing the data that the aircraft gathered with Philippine military authorities.
A classified government document seen by Kyodo News on Friday confirmed that the US Navy surveillance planes conduct routine maritime patrols at the South China Sea, particularly in the contested Spratly Islands.
Del Rosario admitted that the surveillance plane had been patrolling the area even before he assumed office.
"I think this assistance had been there for a while since when I came to DFA. I have heard of P-3C Orion already being helpful in terms of bringing information of what's going on in the area."
He added that, "this is all part of the joint training exercises and the defense and security cooperation that we have with the US, which also includes providing facility for our treaty allies such as re-provisioning and refueling."
Del Rosario said that it is not only the information from the surveillance plane that the Philippines have shared with the Americans but other forms as well.
He did not go into specifics.
Asked if the agreement does not compromise the Philippine position, del Rosario said: "I don't think so, no, I don't know what's in store in terms of what else is coming from the US in terms of equipment, but we do have FMF [Foreign Military Financing] and I don't have a list of what that might be, you may want to ask that from [Defense] Secretary [Voltaire] Gazmin."
Del Rosario added that the Philippines has the initiative of reaching out to our international partners including the US, while Japan, through its official development assistance, has pledged to provide our Navy with 10 patrol boats.
The Philippines and China are locked in a dispute over some areas on the South China Sea, part of which the country renamed West Philippine Sea to delineate the limits of its EEZ and continental shelf.
China and Taiwan claim the entire South China Sea, while the Philippines, Vietnam, Brunei and Malaysia have overlapping claims over some areas, particularly in the Spratly Islands.
Del Rosario is scheduled to meet with Vietnamese Foreign Minister Phm Bình Minh on Thursday.
Although he said Vietnam has entered into an agreement with China, del Rosario said that the Philippines and Vietman will also discuss the extent of that agreement.
"I think Vietnam, like the Philippines, has challenges to address in terms of West Philippine Sea or South China Sea disputes."

Save on Taxes – How to Pay Less
Tax planning is an important means by which you can save on your taxes. Tax planning basically encompasses making the right use of all the deductions you are entitled to so that the taxable income is reduced. In this article we will highlight the various measures you can take in order to reduce your taxable income. Remember, it is not a wise decision to conceal any tax related information from the Internal Revenue Service but you can pay less by following ethical methods. Given below are the following measures for the same. Check them out.
- If you are able to reduce your taxable income, the amount you shell out as taxes is also reduced. How will you go about it? Save for the period after retirement. You can contribute 'pre tax funds' to 401(k) retirement account or in IRA.
- You can also buy so called tax deferred annuity. You begin to receive payments from the annuity but you will have to pay only for the amount you receive as tax.
- Get your itemized deductions calculated. You have 2 options. You can either itemize the deductions or avail standard deduction so that you can provide a filing status of the same.
- You can have a business of your own. In case you are planning to start a proprietorship business, you can give your organization a legal entity. By doing so, you can avail tax deductions and advantages.
- Converting traditional IRA into Roth IRA is another method of reducing your taxable income so that you have to shell out less for taxes. Once you do so, you will be converting the whole amount into Roth IRA but the amount you earn from the same will not attract any tax when you decide to withdraw the same at a later stage. This is ideal for the taxpayers that belong to the higher income strata. They can save on the tax by adopting this means.
- If your taxable income is lower than USD$95,000, you can avail the facility of 'Making Work Pay Credit'. If you are filing it singly you can avail as much as USD$400 and USD$800 if you are filing with your spouse.
- HSA or Health Savings Account – If you open a Health Savings Account, the proceeds of the same can be used to make payments for your medical expenses. And this amount is deducted from your taxable income. As such you pay less tax.

If the horns fit. . .
I've always heard there's no such thing as bad publicity…
the two are interchangeable
Elections have consequences. So do lies.
Not sure that Mr. Obama is a Christian, or for that matter, a Muslim either. There is no space in his universe for anything greater than he is.
What idiocy. Why is the HISTORY channel doing a special on the Bible and Satan ? Why even bother with imaginary characters and the writings of primitive minds ? How absurd. Only in America, a country still in the grasp of superstition and ancient fairy tales can such nonsense pass for "History". What's next ? Shows about Ghosts, the paranormal, and Big Foot and Yeti on the Discovery Channel ? Oh, never mind.
Methinks the Liberals doth protest too much.
Grow up.
I always imagined Satan would resemble Roma Downey. And he would damn sure be a Republican.
Does Obama look like Satan or does Satan look like Obama? I seen the picture this morning and thought to myself this evil character looks like Obama. I had no idea what the picture was in reference to.
Folks, let me be clear. This is the result of a crude and disgusting History Channel Series. Al Qaida is on the run and I am NOT SATAN!
Obamacare is not a tax.
A youtube video killed Chris Stevens.
The sequester will not happen.
I am not Satan.
Hey Jose,
Please allow me to introduce myself
I'm a man of wealth and taste
I've been around for a long, long year
Stole many a man's soul and faith
And I was 'round when Jesus Christ
Had his moment of doubt and pain
Made damn sure that Pilate
Washed his hands and sealed his fate
Pleased to meet you
Hope you guess my name …
looking like Satan has consequences.
If the shoe fits, wear it! I happen to think the casting would not be far off if it were played by Barry himself. He is usually, (but not always) on the negative impact side of the issues. The (not always) part of his actions is what makes me sure he's just an evil human. There's still HOPE… his famously overused, but not realized word.
So now it's Barack Hussein Lucifer Beazlebub Prince-o-Darness Obama?
Can't we just call him President Evil?
If satan had a son he'd look just like huuuuum! Can't get credit for this Rush said it first.
Yes, Satan is made to look like President. Obama and even if some people do not think so, why does Jesus look sooooo European and why does Satan look like a black man? The media has a lot of power to twist people's minds. And this is shameful!
The actor playing Satan was born with blonde hair, blue eyes, freckles… But he really got into his role, a real character actor… spend weeks, months, studying people when they lie, observing what it looks like to decieve and cover up, studying what happens to a face when it never sees, speaks or hears the truth.
And now he looks like this.
It's not like Obama and Satan are mutually exclusive.
Does it not say in the bible that Jesus' hair was like balls of cotton and skin the color of bronze? Why does Satan look like a black man off the block?
Jose, whether you believe in the Bible or not, it is unquestionably one of the most influential written works in history. It has influenced culture, literature, politics, art, music and many other aspects of civilization…and not just western. Even non believers shoud recognize the manner in which their own views regarding morality have shaped by biblical infuence in society. Additionally, the historical accuracy of events it records (both ordinary and miraculous) are cause for a never ending debate by historical scholars. Your personal ideology and the zeal with which you attack others who disagree, does not change the Bible's solid place in the history.
Who gives a flying rat's a$$? It's a tv show. Media will do anything to boost their ratings. Even if it means spreading rumors and lies *cough* fox news *cough*… Haven't we learned this already?
OK, but can he play the fiddle?
Everyone has a right to their opinions of what they believe and don't believe but the fact is the BIBLE is History and will continue to be. No need to speak negatively, if you don't believe then don't criticize why the History Channel is doing this series turn the channel and watch something else that is imaginary or better yet create your own channel and you can show the things you like. Nobody's forcing you to watch.
Some of these Obama haters I'm sure would look like the real Satan. And that includes the producers of this show called "The "Bible" and the execs of the history channel.
Verbal Kint said, "The smartest thing the devil ever did is convince people he doesn't exist."
this guy in no way resembles President Obama. Maybe in 40 years it might…..
The Moroccan actor who played satan has played satanic roles in the past, long before we knew (or thought we knew) who Obama was. He is not blue eyed or blonde and made up to be Black. Who did Samson look like? Come on grow up.
Doesn't the ending of these things, or at least movies, say something like: "Any resemblance to real persons, living or dead, is purely coincidental?" Still, there is an uncanny similarity. I doubt very much that the H-Channel is anti-Obama.
I didn't care for the series–too disjointed and I thought it was dull. Most of the actors looked like came from "Duck Dynasty," but with eyeliner. Wasn't realistic for me. I'm sure some out of work Middle eastern actors would have loved a part.
BTW Tilly,
Obama is only 1/4 black, he is also 1/4 Arab and 1/2 white. So you could say he's as much Arab as he is Black. SO many people forget that. He's actually more of a white president than he is a black president! And then it must just be a coincident that Obama looks like this guy who plays Satan. hmmmm maybe it's Divine Providence… God opposing Satan's lie to us that he doesn't exist… by showing us that he DOES in fact exist. Just hittin too close to home for the Obama lovers.
No way, Mohamen Mehdi Ouazanni is much better looking than BO!
I'll take their word the resemblance was unintentional. I just find it disappointing that they went with Euro-Jesus and Afro-Satan. Talk about unimaginative clichés.
I think they should have got Obama himself to play the Devil. He is an antichrist after all and maybe the antichrist.
Hey Roma just wanted to let you in on something Obama is not a fellow Christian he is a Muslim plain and simple.
The only difference I can detect is where the wart is.
Whoever posted that Satan resembles obama oughta shut the f up! Republican d—heads still can't keep their comments to themselves!
Well, it might be a darker Murdoch.
Seriously. They are kidding themselves if they didn't think there was a resemblance. You don't think anyone during production said, "You know…he looks an awful lot like our President. This might upset some people?" Of course they did. They knew exactly what they were doing and now we're talking about it. I agree though, Euro-Jesus / Afro/Ethnic Satan is cliche and just perpetuates the stereotype.
Will love to see their expression when they go to hell and realize the devil is white with blue eye and blond hair.
When would we realize that we all look like each other more so than we don't.
he looks like an old Obama with rinkless
sighn, caleb allen
I'm very disappointed in how a network called "History Channel" depicts Christ as white and Satan as black, are you kidding me. Jesus was a native Middle Eastern person — a Palestinian — who spoke Aramaic — a Semitic language that is ancestral to Arabic and Hebrew with brown skin.
LMAO! The tinfoil hat crowd never runs out of ludicrous claims. Hey, maybe Obama IS the devil, too bad the sane people will never know ha ha ha ha !!!!!
Yep, Barry looks like the devil in The Bible…type casting?
Hilarious how the right wingers are so damn jealous of Obama . When you see Jesus with blonde hair and blue eyes you can not help but laugh . The GOP,s lack of education and selective facts from worshiping sicko,s like Rush and a lot of Fox News commentators come out when you see and hear the comments .
It seams like one another trick to uplifting him by using metaphysical principles. Whoever makes association between devil and him and digests it emotionally would make him more powerful. And person who dare to eat that may have face to their own devils karma. Has anybody seen the devil yet? So better searching it between you!
A first grade teacher explains to her class that she is an American.
She asks her students to raise their hands if they where American too.
Not really knowing why but wanting to be like their teacher, their hands explode into the air like flashy fireworks.
There is, however, one exception. A girl named Kristen has not gone along with the crowd.
The teacher asks her why she has decided to be different.
"Because I am not an American."
"Then", asks the teacher, "What are you?"
"I'm a proud Canadian," boasts the little girl.
The teacher is a little perturbed now, her face slightly red. She asks Kristen why she is a Canadian.
"Well, my mom and dad are Canadians, so I'm a Canadian too"
The teacher is now angry. "That's no reason," she says loudly. "What if your mom was a moron, and your dad was a moron. What would you be then?"
A pause, and a smile. "Then," says Kristen, "I'd be an American."
Yup, looks like Obama to me.
I think it's hilarious that it looks like Obama. I couldn't think of a better character for him either
it doesnt matter what the characters look like. The fact still remains the Jesus is the same yesterday, today, and foerever more. God is the alpha and the omega. Gods word will not come back void. Don't lose focus. TRUST LEAN AND DEPEND ON GOD……
Since when does Satan look like a witch or a warlock. Truthfully speaking His appeal should be just as welcoming as Jesus if not more so.
Jesus was Jewish and probably looked more like Obama than the distinctively Caucasian featured people generally cast to portray Him.
Why would Satan want to look like Obama?
I love how the WSJ made the face Brown and skinnier. The face in the show was silver and chubbier. you make me sick! You just want to keep division for news sales. That is why I don't trust your reporting!
i dont like in the episode, how they show Mary giving birth and suffering pain…She was spared any pain by God but this shows her screaming. The miracle included Mary not having pain that Eve made mortal women suffer.
They can say what ever, as soon as I looked at this guy he favors Obama, just the complication alone any other time god is white and satan is white since when is he brown… B real, satan is a angel and he was very appealing to the eye… So make him appealing not just some off brand Obama look-a-like….
I think it looks more like Pelosi…
someone should inform the directors that Obama IS NOT a fellow christian.And I too think the devil and he look alike, perfect similarity in my opinion.
If the shoe fits!
Who cares what he looks like!! What a joke of reason for a headline! My gosh, the things that society chooses to focus on these days. See it for what this piece of news for what it really is, a distraction or attempt to discredit. But seriously, don't we have better things to worry about????
This is proof Satan will use any measure to achieve his goal, including this distraction to get us feeble minded humans off the real point that Jesus died so we can have eternal life.
Well we all know Jesus Christ the nazarene was not a white skin man but he had dark skin….hypocrites and liars…if it doesnt matter why is the devil looking black but the messiah white….but Jesus says satan is the father of lies and of course the bible series producers are satan's puppets cause they are not true followers of Jesus Christ
This movie really made me think about my life, to see all of the trials and tribulations that Jesus and his discipleswent through so we can have eternal life is remarkable….it makes me want to study the Bible more and get my life right before Our Savior comes back for us….

Mutual assistance and co-operation between the South African Revenue Service and foreign tax authorities
Monday, August 11, 2014 12:20:00
Recent international developments have made it increasingly difficult for taxpayers to hide their assets or to avoid tax and South Africa has joined the list of countries that fully comply with international standards on the transparency and exchange of taxpayers information. South Africa is a member of the OECDs Global Forum on Transparency and Exchange of Information for Tax Purposes (the Global Forum) (chaired by the chief officer of legal and policy at the South African Revenue Service (SARS), Kosie Louw). The Global Forum recently conducted a peer review of 50 jurisdictions, and South Africa is one of only 18 fully compliant countries.
Global Legal Insights - Corporate Tax
Thursday, July 24, 2014 13:11:40
The corporate tax work of the past year has been mixed. There have been a number of corporate restructuring transactions, refinancing of debt push down transactions and a number of transactions involving share repurchases by companies as a means of enabling shareholders to exit companies. We have also seen an increasing number of enquiries by the South African Revenue Service ("SARS") based on the General Anti-Avoidance Rules. As stated above, there have also been a number of transactions involving share repurchases by companies as a means of enabling shareholders to exit companies. The share repurchase became a favoured way of exiting a company, particularly for South African resident company shareholders, where the proceeds of the share repurchase were treated as a dividend for the purposes of the Income Tax Act ("ITA").
The Tax Disputes and Litigation Review
Tuesday, March 18, 2014 09:17:00
With effect from 1 October 2012 the administration provisions of the various tax acts were moved to a new act, called the Tax Administration Act, 2012. The Tax Administration Act basically sets out the South African Revenue Service (SARS) and the taxpayer's obligations and entitlements.
The drafting of the Tax Administration Act was announced by the Minister of Finance in the 2005 Budget Review, and eventually promulgated on 4 July 2012. In terms of the law that has created SARS, (i.e., the South African Revenue Service Act) SARS's objectives include the efficient and effective collection of taxes. Tax legislation, such as the Tax Administration Act, seeks to achieve this objective.
South Africas VAT changes: The impact on e-commerce
Wednesday, March 12, 2014 10:16:00
The buying and selling of services over the internet has become ubiquitous. This article provides an update on the efforts of the South African Revenue Service ('SARS') and National Treasury ('Treasury') to bring foreign e-commerce suppliers on to a level tax playing field, by requiring them to register under the Value- Added Tax Act 1991 ('the VAT Act').
In South Africa, it is usually the case that an entity selling goods or services will (i) be charged VAT (normally at a standard rate of 14%) on its inputs by its suppliers, (ii) charge VAT on its outputs to its customers, and (iii) will have to register with SARS in order to claim back the tax paid in step (i) and pay over the tax collected in step (ii).
Transfer pricing audits put the squeeze on in Africa
Wednesday, March 12, 2014 10:03:00
The African Tax Administration Forum has identified transfer pricing as a critical issue for African tax administrations and has undertaken several initiatives to improve co-operation between the administrations to police the issue. In SA, the South African Revenue Service (SARS) has also significantly increased its focus on transfer pricing and regularly undertakes transfer pricing audits with a very capable transfer pricing team.
SARS applies the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) Guidelines on Transfer Pricing to determine the appropriate transfer pricing policy for a multinational enterprise operating in SA.

Image Rights: Its Time for Clarity and Certainty
Monday, November 25, 2013 15:53:00
The tax treatment of image rights is contentious in many countries, South Africa included. Lionel Messi the hero of Spanish football, recently paid 5m to the tax authorities after he had been charged with tax evasion in respect of the sale of the commercial rights to use his image, autograph and name ( image rights). The charges arose from the income from the sale of Messis image rights to offshore companies. The perceived value of image rights was also rumoured to be an important aspect of the talks surrounding Gareth Bales record breaking transfer from Tottenham Hotspur FC to Real Madrid. In the UK it has been reported that several football clubs in the Premier League have settled disputes with HM Revenue and Customs (*HMRC) regarding the taxation of image rights.
The new double tax agreement between South Africa and Mauritius - What is the effect on business?
Monday, October 14, 2013 10:17:00
The news of the revised double tax agreement between South Africa and Mauritius (the new DTA) on Monday, 27 May, rang alarm bells for both Mauritian companies investing into South Africa as well as for South African companies expanding offshore via Mauritius. What are these changes and how will they impact on the use of Mauritian companies for investment by non-residents into South Africa, or for foreign investment by South Africans?
Euromoney Tax Handbook 2013
Thursday, September 26, 2013 09:52:00
How is South Africa responding to growing concerns about base erosion?
South Africa, influenced by international tax developments, has proposed new measures that seek to address perceived base erosion problems, whilst at the same time it tries to position itself as a 'Gateway to Africa'. From a tax policy perspective, base erosion becomes a concern for national tax authorities when gaps in the interaction of different tax systems, or the application of bilateral tax treaties, allow for income from cross-border activities to result in either non-taxation or unduly low taxation. The term 'base erosion' includes tax evasion, tax avoidance, tax underestimation and population flight.
Tax considerations for oil, gas and mining companies in Africa
Tuesday, July 16, 2013 14:26:55
Africa is rich in mineral resources, offering substantial opportunities in mining, oil and gas. Potential investors in these sectors have shown an interest in using South Africa as a gateway for investing into Africa, one of the reasons being South Africas good tax treaty network with other African countries, as well as major European and Asian countries.

Smarty Tuners programmers that provide serious power increases for 1998-2012 Dodge and Ram trucks with 5.9L and 6.7L Cummins engines. The programmers have features no other tuner does.
Tallmadge, OH (PRWEB) August 25, 2014
Smarty Tuners programmers that provide serious power increases for 1998-2012 Dodge and Ram trucks with 5.9L and 6.7L Cummins engines. The programmers have features no other tuner does:
Smarty Tuners programmers also feature a adjustable speed limiter (25-250 mph) for most applications. They can adjust the ABS system to accommodate taller tires up to 44 inches, and have a built-on USB port to download software updates from Smarty.
SO-3 Programmer for 1998.5-2002 Dodge Cummins 5.9L
This programmer offers 10 tuning levels from Fuel Saver mode to all-out power. The higher the tune number, the more aggressive the throttle response gets. In fact, Smarty strongly advises not using the top two tunes on slippery roads as throttle tip-in is almost instantaneous. The SO-3s programmable speed limiter works for 2001-02 models only.
SO-6 Programmer for 2003-07 Dodge Cummins 5.9L
This programmer offers 10 pre-programmed tuning levels that boost power from 30 all the way up to 210 horsepower at the rear wheels. The tuner also offers Power on Demand100 selectable power levels you can add on the fly. Just punch in the level you want from 00 to 99 and the SO-6 will download the tune in just one second.
The Smarty SO-6 programmer also offers a torque management function at all tuning levels. It allows improved throttle response but sets it at a safe limit to protect the transmission and driveline from damage due to driveline shock when you hit the throttle.
Summit Racing also offers a more affordable J-06 Junior version of the SO-6. It offers three pre-programmed power levels40, 70, and 100 horsepowerplus the Power on Demand function.
S-67 Programmer for 2007-12 Dodge/Ram Cummins 6.7L
The S-67 offers 10 pre-programmed power levels that add from 30 to 170 rear-wheel horsepower. It also has Smarty Tuners torque management function and the Power on Demand feature for 2007-09 trucks. There is a J-67 Junior version of the S-67. It offers three pre-programmed power levels40, 70, and 100 horsepowerplus the Power on Demand function.
SSR Programmer for 2003-07 Dodge Cummins 5.9L
This is the programmer to have for racing or pulling. The SSR provides a baseline that takes care of the speed, engine rpm, and boost limiters. From there, choose from 50 levels of fuel injector timing, injector duration, fuel rail pressure, and torque management to tailor a tune to meet specific needs. In fact, Smarty Tuners says the SSR offers 15 billion possible tuning combinations. With control like that, tuning with a chassis dyno is strongly recommended.
The SSR programmer also has Smarty Tuners Power on Demand function for on-the-fly power adjustments, plus a programmer rev limiter that can be set up to 6,000 rpm.

Look! Planting your pots!
Plant your pots! We saw several interesting ideas for garden inspiration throughout the showcase homes at the 1.7 Ocean event. This one was done by designer Andrew Virture of Andrew Virtue Designs. Andrew actually "potted" his pots into the ground which was quirky, fun and unexpected.
This could be a good solution if you are considering planting bamboo since it has a reputation for spreading like crazy. We also love that it gave a cleaner and more contained (pardon the pun) look as you entered the yard. Stay tuned for a second part to this post where we'll show the rest of Andrew's showcase bungalow.

I think this looks silly and rather ghetto.
I could see this if the holes were filled with glass bits or something pretty - and if the plants were, you know, healthy. Otherwise it does look a little strange.
i agree with you guys, i think it looks terrible. really unfinished...
I had a neighbor in the city I used to live in that grew tomatoes and vegetables in this manner. They were grown in large buckets, which were buried in the ground up to their rims. We had very bad soil there that wasn't safe to grow edibles in and I thought it was a clever solution. It gave him complete control over the health of the soil and the plant without having to build raised beds. With the plants laid out in neat rows, the buckets looked so much better "planted" than they ever would have above ground.
I think if the pots in the photos were buried just a little bit deeper and the soil packed more closely to the pots (imagine just the lip of the pot sticking out of the ground, encircling the plant) then they would look great as well.
Just wanted to point out that, aesthetics aside, planting in this way can help to overcome the perils of bad or inappropriate soil for what you're growing.
I recently bought a dwarf Meyer lemon tree and I just can't imagine it in the ground in it's pot like this.
Hi, I agree in the photos it does appear to look a bit ghetto but I have to say that the concept in person looks great.
Usually when you want to change the scale or elevation of planted pots, you see them on a plant stand, or shelf, or something like that. Seeing the pots somewhat buried in the ground takes you a bit by surprise. It is original and clever without it being too weird....I declare it a success!
I've seen this done in the planters at the Deptford Mall (NJ), and on the grounds of Rutgers University. Perhaps having to do with a quick change should something dies and need to be replaced or to change seasonally. I've also seen this at the Philadelphia Flower Show, which is one of the best in the country. That, of course, is all temporary landscaping and planting.
Hey there, hatas ! You're right, this looks AWFUL. The gaps around the pots were intended to be filled with pigmy date palms, and then underplanted with layers of Terrace Lime. Why on earth this unfinished detail of my work was photographed two days before the showcase opened, and then FEATURED, is beyond me. This look is not quirky, or fun, or unexpected - it's just incomplete. It's funny that people are weighing in on it, oblivious of the context. Props to VickyA, the only one smart enough to realize she was looking at something TEMPORARY and seasonal- the plants go back into my courtyard when the showcase closes. Vicky, if there's a way to get your address discreetly, I'll send you one of my famous scented Virtue candles, your prize for paying close attention/having a brain. For what it's worth, these plants ARE perfectly healthy, and were very specifically chosen because they don't look florist perfect. I wanted them to look real, like they'd been there awhile. Gardens full of hothouse-fresh foliage are a bad look. This is all a great example of how easily things can get out of control in the age of instant junk communication. MY ADVICE : stop sitting around at your computers blogging and go out and actually DO or CREATE something. Or better yet, PLANT SOMETHING - maybe some 'ipomoea batatas' under my ghetto pots !.....

Writing has taken a backseat to life lately. When you work in a profession dominated with writing and are researching for a dissertation, writing for pleasure isn't really pleasurable. But, I couldn't pass up the opportunity to share an experience that happened early in the month—the Kentucky State Special Olympics Games. The event was refreshing. Why? For a few hours, I was surrounded by nothing but kind, competitive spirit and happiness. It reminded me how much I enjoy being a part of this lifestyle, although it can be challenging at times.
As the mom of a special needs child who loves cultural anthropology and behavior analysis, I find myself perplexed by the competitive drive of some typical functioning children and their parents. I guess I take after my dear father who was more fun-loving than competitive. I hate participating in or watching competitions. I don't discount their value, and I don't buy into the logic that EVERYONE deserves a ribbon. Darwin knew what he was talking about when he explained "survival of the fittest," which applies even in competition. In life, there are winners and losers. The tender-hearted side of me (yes, I have a heart) always feels bad for the loser. Someone has to drop his or her head and run in from the field while the fireworks bang and confetti falls for someone else. Someone has to polish their resume while someone else unpacks boxes in his or her new office. It's simply life.
But, the nature of the competition is what troubles me most. Sure, we want our children to win, because we don't want them to be disappointed from losing. When I was a child, I remember hearing about a local mother (yes, the natural nurturer) being removed from her child's little league game for disruptive behavior. Disruptive behavior is so rampant at children's competitive events that communities have started hanging signs to remind parents it's only a game and to watch their language. I wonder if the next generation of parents at little league games will continue their parents' behavior or sit quietly remembering the embarrassment. As parents we want our children to experience accolades, pats on the back… happiness.
That's what makes the Special Olympics so special. Sure, there are winners. You know it, because they proudly wear those medals while standing on the podium for pictures and recognition. And, there are losers… but those are harder to recognize. As I sat in the stands waiting for the prince and his dad to take their marks for his Young Athlete's 15m dash, I watched the older athletes race on the track. The athlete leading the pack had a stride of pride. The entire crowd erupted in cheers as he passed the stands. What makes that so special? The crowd continued their eruption for every runner; every runner, even the one bringing up the rear, had a stride of pride and enormous smile. I was in awe. These people were cheering for people on the "other side" and encouraging them to cross the finish line.
That's what is missing from typical competitions. We square off at district tournaments and other games. My side sits here; you sit over there. I'll "boo" your team's every move, and you'll "boo" my team. If my team loses, I will talk about the terrible coaches on my team and how the referees were obviously your fans. If my team wins, I will talk about our awesome coaches and players, how fair the referees were, and the terrible behavior of the sore losers.
While I hate competition, I can get caught up in the moment from time to time. One night while watching a WKU basketball game on television, our opposing team scored with a terrific shot. Caden clapped, jumped up and down, held his arms up, and cheered loudly. A proud Hilltopper, I said, "Caden, that's the wrong team." He looked at me, jumped up and down, and cheered some more. He never leaves a WKU Volleyball game disappointed with the outcome. A winner was crowned, but the loser was still applauded.
We all need a little Special Olympics to remind us how we should behave—to remind us there should be just as much pride in finishing the race as standing on the podium. We hope one day our child will stand on the podium, but we know he really wouldn't enjoy standing still for a picture anyway. His moment was during the race—and that's why the games are the truly Special Olympics.

This sharp, spicy-sweet chutney is good with duck, lamb, and pork—rich meats complemented by the punch of a sour, fruity condiment. You can also serve atop vegetable curry or with cream cheese and crackers as an appetizer. If you prefer a milder chutney, remove the seeds from the jalapeño.

How to Improve the Way Medical Research Is Applied in Frontline Care
Many people assume that it is enough to present clinicians and managers with the results of medical research for them to adopt those techniques that work best. This is quite untrue. The scale and pace of medical advance poses a continual challenge, and there is often a gap between recommended care and actual care received.

15 reasons to jailbreak your iPhone
Summary: Jailbreaking is "legal, ethical, and just plain fun", and allows you to use your iPhone exactly how you want it to.
13 of 16Image
NoNewsIsGoodNews may not offer you anything new, but it goes to show exactly how jailbreaking your iPhone makes all the difference. This application completely removes Newsstand, which cannot be put into a folder or moved away from the home screen.
This tiny application doesn't display an icon, it just does what it says it will do: it hides Newsstand, so you can fill up that extra space on your first home screen with anything you like.
Price: free.
Compatible with: iOS 5+ (including 5.1.)
TruPrint takes the in-built printing capabilities of your iPhone and expands it to almost every printer available on your home or work network. iOS devices only support AirPrint printers, and there aren't many of them. But if you have a network printer, or a local printer of a popular and common brand, the chances are you will be able to use TruPrint.
For the price, it's entirely worth it. The printing functionality in the iPhone is good, but it could be far better. TruPrint is its jailbroken app cousin on steroids, and works flawlessly again and again.
Price: free.
Compatible with: iOS 5+ (including 5.1.)
Five Icon Dock does exactly what it says on the tin. There is only so much you can customise with the iPhone, unlike Android smartphones or even BlackBerrys. At least on BlackBerrys you can change the theme of the device, and determine how many icons are on your home screen. With this, it's a tiny tweak that allows you to plonk an extra, much needed icon to your iPhone dock screen.
Price: free.
Compatible with: iOS 5+ (including 5.1.)

Reader Comments (Page 1 of 1)
"detailed" certainly helps. However, every time one of the devs posts some snarky reply about how "it's not helpful" to a post that isn't the world's most articulate piece of writing, It comes across as though the devs are lazy or stupid.
This kid could be 15. He is a healer. What if he doesn't know enough about the game to lay out all those details? He seems to know something, but don't assume he knows enough.
It would've been soooo easy for Zarhym to turn that person's post into something constructive by responding with "What is your rotation?" or "Tell me more about how things are being pulled." All he had to do was spend a second thinking of how he could get the info he wanted out of the player. Tech support is great at taking a vague post like "my comp froze" and syphoning specific info out of the player until they know what exactly is wrong. Zarhym and GC could learn a ton about how to interact with players from the blues over at tech support, especially the Mac guys =) .
It's getting old reading the exact same blue-posts reworded 4000 different ways. Ok, we get it, some of these posts aren't good enough for you. Now either reply to the ones that are, ask questions in response to not-so-great posts and turn them into constructive threads, or stfu about it.

Posts tagged sushi
Posts tagged sushi
June 5, 2012 [Happy Graduation]
My cousin got her diploma from high school so between the mass and the actual diploma giving, we went to Sumo at Sunridge mall for lunch~
We got a rainbow roll, a spider roll and something else I can't recognize.
May 31, 2012 [Sanaka Grill]
Hawaii Legend
Kiwi, smoked salmon wrap with unagi, cucumber, finished with pineapple flake, sweet wasabi sauce & unagi sauce
My friends and I are a bunch of shopaholics so we wanted to go to the mall. However, we also wanted to get some drinks. Since we go to Market and Chinook very often, we decided to go to Sunridge and because we had to stop downtown anyway, we went to get bellinis at Milestone~
Oh boy did it rain a ton this day. The one block it took to walk from Milestones to the train station got us all drenched and stupid me wore canvas shoes instead of rainboots and my feet were wet until I got home -.-;;
It was pretty fun though hehehe
One of our friends brought a new friend along. I forgot where she came from but it was from faaaaaaar away although she spoke great english. We decided to eat at Sumo when we got to Sunridge because some of us were super hungry P:
Our new friend had never eaten raw fish or sushi before so I was excited to help introduce her to it. She said her culture never really eats anything raw so the idea of raw fish was scary but she was brave and had a bit. Fortunately, she ended up really liking it.
Above is just a picture of my sushi plate. Veggie combo because I didn't feel like eating fish that day.
Because we had to pass by downtown again to get home, we decided to stop by Bear & Kilt Freehouse for some drinks and nachos.
May 8, 2012 [Part 1/2: Sakana Grill]
A Small sushi combo with a cucumber roll and tuna roll.
Went to Wasabi with the parents~
I used to go here very often and even celebrated my birthday here twice with a couple of my bestest buddies.
Some miso soup and salad~
Sushi that came with my parents entrees.
My sushi combo. The nigiri looks a bit… off…
Look at how dinky the rice is.
I've read that the fish is supposed to cover the the rice really well because the way you eat is it that you hold the rice by the sides, turn it upside down to dip it in the soy sauce (fish is supposed to be held together with the rice via a little bit of wasabi) then eat in one bite. The fish did not stay on the rice when I flipped it over!! The sushi was really bland and messy..
My mom's chicken dish. She said the chicken was overcooked.
My dad's eel dish. He said there were lots of bones in it. Do eel even have bones?
EDIT: Googled it and yes. Yes they do. Just like fish. Is google in the dictionary?
Some tofu dish I got. It was supposed to be an appetizer but it came after we got our entrees haha. It was just medium tofu lightly deep fried with katsuobushi and seaweed on top.
My meal included tempura but for some reason, it came after I finished with my entree…
Overall, the place turned out being pretty crappy. It used to be good but then they apparently switched owners and now the food is worse. Too bad ):
602 16 Ave NW
March 24, 2012 [Kinjo]
Just went out for dinner with one of my aunts. This is the only picture I took for some reason lol.
So I invited one of my aunts and uncles to come with me to Beatniq again to watch the Charlie Parker Strings Project but we went to Kinjo for dinner first.
Las Vegas Roll
Unagi Sauce, jalapeno, strawberry, yellow daikon, wonton skin, cream cheese, spicy tuna, crab meat, avocado.
There's so much stuff in there haha. It was pretty good nonetheless.
February 29, 2012 [Globefish]
Went shopping at Chinook with a friend and my aunt from the Philippines and we ate at Globefish for dinner~
We had the rock'n shrimp which turned out not to be as awesome as the first time I had it and some sushi combo.
so @maariellenicole and I went shopping at Chinook mall and we got hungry so we ate at Globefish~~
I asked for hot water because I had a very bad cough D:
The only reason I took a picture was because the mug was really pretty.
Rock'n Shrimp
Lightly and crispy shrimp served with spicy mayo and green seaweed powder.
This was so delicious. It was a little sweet and the texture of the shrimp was and the batter was just right. I think it tastes really really good with the seaweed powder as opposed to without it.
Viva Las Vegas
Crabmeat, avocado and red tuna roll topped with smoked salmon. Flash fried in tempura batter dressed in our special BBQ sauce.
It was really nice and soft and the cram meat tastes really really good and you can distinctly taste the salmon at the end.
Chopped Scallop Roll
Scallop & tobiko with mayonnaise rolled with rice & seaweed
Ever since my cousin introduced me to scallop nigiri at Kinjo, I have been obsessed with scallops and mayo. Best texture ever hnng.
And because we're good eaters, we had to get dessert.
Chocolate Cake
Hot chocolate cake with melted fudge serves with vanilla ice cream
The cake was pretty good and the the melted fudge inside was a pleasant surprise.
BUT. canned whipped cream. Seriously. It seeped into the ice cream and made it icky ):
Just went out with a bunch of friends. 14 people (including myself). I remember this number because I went a bit early with a few other people to get a table ready and Stanley and Brandon said they head the chefs saying (in Chinese, mind you) that they were a bit shocked to hear they had a table of 14. So that was that.
There really was a lot of us and the food was sprawled out all over the table so I could only take a picture of what was in front of me.
Ahh we ate so much I was pretty full afterwards XD
… but of course, there is always room for dessert
Some green tea ice cream for Miki and me
Mango ice cream for Stanley and Brandon
I forgot who but someone asked Miki (a student on a study abroad program from Japan) asked if the sushi here was as good as the sushi there and the answer is exactly what you would expect. Sushi here is definitely incomparable mainly because of the freshness. What do you expect when you live in the middle of the country?

Believe it or not, we are now up to season 11 of 'American Idol," which debuts on January 18.
As a preview, Fox has given reporters access to screen 25 minutes of footage from auditions this past summer on the same day "The X Factor" concludes.
"Idol" acolytes (and there are many) who miss the show after weeks of "The X Factor" onslaught will enjoy the clips (though this set of clips probably won't be available to you all until the auditions begin.)
The producers went out of their way to create colorful background vistas for the judges, be it boats, airplanes or colorful trees. (The audition cities included Portland, St. Louis and Charleston, S.C.).
They included a segment out of San Diego, where auditions are held on the U.S.S. Midway, the first open-air auditions in the history of the show. This also mean far more noise problems than normal. The producers play it for laughs.
The backdrop where the "Idol" contestants audition no longer features past winners. Photos of the winners are now placed outside in the hallway. Instead, you get a generic dark cityscape with shadowy generic singers, kind of like the opening credits.
They add a video screen in at least one audition city that's set outside the audition room and allows families and friends to watch the audition live.
And Steven Tyler's little soul patch is as distracting as ever. Plus, it's just good to see Ryan Seacrest in his usual element and make you quickly forget Steve Jones.
One thing's for sure: this judges' panel has far better chemistry than the odd quartet on "The X Factor" and the trio is melding together even better in its second year out.
The handful of singers they featured for us were all at least pretty good. Watch for a Florida singer in St. Louis who croons "A Change is Gonna Come." "You know you're going to be a star," Lopez said. "Keep singing!"
There is a 17 year old who looks 12 who sings a bit like Michael Jackson and claims he beat Scotty McCreery in a talent contest in 2009. (There is video proof.)
One dude sings a joyous version of the "Family Matters" theme. A Korean-American is plain goofy (William Hung alert!) but surprises the judges when he actually sings well.
A blonde teen tries to channel Jennifer Nettles. And a woman who loves Tyler squeezes his tush – but does she make it to Hollywood?
Countdown: 27 days!
- Adam Lambert was arrested in Finland after fighting in public with his boyfriend. He was released and no further action will be taken.
Detective Superintendent Petri Juvonen said the fight spread from a popular gay bar early Thursday into the street where Lambert was suspected of hitting two people who tried to break it up.
Juvonen said that Lambert's boyfriend, "Finnish Big Brother" star Sauli Koskinen, also was held for questioning. He said no weapons were used, no one was seriously hurt and that it was not "a very serious incident."
Lambert later Tweeted: "Jetlag+Vodka=blackout. Us÷blackout=irrational confusion. jail+guilt+press=lesson learned."

And a woman who loves Tyler squeezes his tush – but does she make it to Hollywood?
Well, we know that she got at least one yes!

Someone beat Scotty in a talent contest? He's got my vote already!

"out of their way to create colorful background vistas"
From what I've seen of the Portland audition, they could have done better. Hopefully they will get plenty of "around town" shots.
Contrary to what I said at the end of last season, I'm starting to look forward to Idol. Thanks X-Factor.
Adam Lambert… "Don't Tell Mama"!

Make this go away!!! People still watch this junk?
December 22nd, 2011
2:45 pm
Well it's not on until January Allison, so no one can watch this junk yet. That is of course unless they have a time machine like me.
December 22nd, 2011
2:48 pm
Yes , Allison, apparently more people watch this junk than any other junk on tv.
December 22nd, 2011
2:52 pm
And yet, here you are Allison W – Since the heading was clearly Idol related, just why did you stop by this "junk" place?
December 22nd, 2011
3:00 pm
So, since Carrie had success with "Mama's Song" can we look forward to a "Don't Tell Mama's Song" from Mr. Lambert?
Allison Wonderland – that's catchy. Really. And yes people still watch "Idol" even though there have been many dire predictions that it has jumped the frickin' shark . That's why this particular blog has a page dedicated to it.
We all just need to get a life, huh?
December 22nd, 2011
3:04 pm
I just got back from 5 years in the future. I have bad news for you guys, in the future you think this stuff is junk too. Oh and congratulations on the Snake Chopping Theme Park Deirdre, I'll admit that I didn't think it would work. Oh and you have my vote Rodney!
December 22nd, 2011
3:05 pm
Question: are we supposed to be able to see the clips mentioned above? Or is Rodney telling us to watch for these singers when the shows actually air? 'Cause if it is the latter, this old fart will never remember it when the time comes!
Sad…youth and memory are so fleeting!
December 22nd, 2011
3:41 pm
Thanks for the clarification, Rodney. I am ready for "Idol" and "The Voice" as well.

I like X-Factor better
Found better talent
Judges are better, except Simon made himself look like a fake, never criticized those he mentored
Host on XF better then Seacrest, well spoken, does not bring attention to himself.
Like the live stuff, tweets message boards
only thing I didn't like is the stage production was always overdone, could not focus on contestants for all the action going on on stage
December 22nd, 2011
4:29 pm
what was Adam Lambert doing at a gay bar, busted, bet he's gay
December 22nd, 2011
4:45 pm
SimonSays has a time machine too I see, they are visiting from 2003 which was the time right before EVERYONE knew Adam Lambert was openly gay.
December 22nd, 2011
8:11 pm
LOL!!!..SimonSays….I was going along with you right up until you called the XF host "well spoken" LOL..great joke!!!!!
December 22nd, 2011
8:19 pm
Pet peeve: in the video clip about Adam Lambert (AccessAtlanta), the speaker says that the two (Lambert and his boyfriend) have made up, saying there was "no love lost between them." Well, that is not what that phrase means, whoever you are. Grrr.
So I'm going to be about half an hour behind, at least until I catch up through commercials.

One baby's sleeping
By mother's lullaby
His nose she's clearing
Then she'll wash the baby in a bay.
The baby has to wake up
And a helicopter's flying by
The mother's belly starts to move,
But she doesn't know why,
And milk is pouring from the top,
And another love she has to prove.
The second unburned child,
Is the proof that love exists
And the baby's very clean and wild,
Like a musician, he has fists.
Though the father us has left,
I don't give a thing about the rest,
And the baby will always be mine
For I'm the mother and I'm fine!

In order to profit, be a contrarian
Breaking away from the herd and buying unpopular stocks has its benefits.
All too often investors get caught up in the popularity game.
They want to own what is popular, and being discussed on the television and in the print media. They feel left out if friends and neighbors are chatting at backyard BBQs about the latest whiz-bang tech stocks that are going to make them a fortune. If everyone else owned Apple (AAPL), then by gosh they should as well.
If Uncle Frank thinks that Google (GOOG) is a great idea, then we need to get in on this deal right away. My nephew has a mutual fund that is skyrocketing, I need to call my broker right away.
Should you conform?
It may be comfortable to run with the herd and own what is hot and popular, but the evidence suggests you might be better off doing exactly the opposite of that. Investors would be better served, most of the time, seeking out the unloved, unwanted and boring stocks.
If you take a look at the best performing stocks in the S&P 500 over the past year you will find one or two of the hot and popular names. Netflix (NFLX) has been a growth darling for several years right now and is the top performing stock in the index over the last year. While that might seem to validate the idea of buying popular stocks, a look back in time shows a different picture.
In September of last year, that stock had fallen about 50% from the peak -- as they were unable to keep up with the torrid expectations of the growth crown, and there was fear of competition form Amazon (AMZN) and others. A lot of people had lost a lot of money in the stock and it was not very well loved at the time.
GameStop (GME) has also become an awfully popular stock, as investors bet on the company's future with new games and gaming consoles coming out later this year. Over the last year the shares have climbed more than 150%, as investors have gotten excited about its prospects -- especially as we go into the key holiday selling season.
This time last year
But a year ago, the stock languished near book value. It had been falling steadily as investors fretted about the company's ability to keep up with online competition.
Last year at this time, Micron Technology (MU) was priced as if no one would ever buy a semiconductor again. The stock was trading well below book value, and even below estimates of liquidation value. They had almost 50% of the market cap in cash on the balance sheets at one point during its steady decline. As fortunes reversed, and the shares regained their former luster and popularity, they have risen by more than 140% in the past year.
Rather than looking at what the talking heads on television find the most exciting, investors might want to go look for the stocks they have stopped talking about -- or that are being vilified by pundits, analysts and your neighbors.
The worst performing stock over the past year is retailers JC Penney (JCP). After being the target of activist William Ackman and his legions of admirers, the stock fell like a stone when new management could not deliver. Shares are down 45% in the past year. If you do not think the company is going to fade form the retail landscape, the stock is probably going to be higher in a year than it is now.
Inflation or collapse?
When all the talk was of potential inflation and global currency collapse a year or so ago, gold miners like Newmont Mining (NEM) were the toast of the town. However, as inflation has not reared its head and the world has stubbornly refused to end they have fallen out of favor. Newmont is one of the largest gold miners in the world and all produces a substantial amount of copper as well.
The stock is down over 30% in the past year and trades for less than half its valuation at the height of gold fever in 2011. At any sign of inflation of geopolitical unrest the gold miners could easily rally with Newmont leading the way.
Cliffs Natural Resources (CLF) mines and sells iron ore and metallurgical coal. The past few years, with a slow economy and high Chinese inventories of ore and coal, have been difficult for the company. The market has been soft and profits elusive. The stock is down more than 30% in the past year and trades at about 25% of its 2011 value. If China's economy and global steel demand increase over the next year, so will the price of this stock.
It is very easy to stay with the herd and buy what is popular and exciting right now.
Evidence suggests it might be more profitable to buy what is unloved at this moment in time.

In November the undefeated boxer "poked a security guard's cheekbone" in a dispute over illegally parked cars outside of his home. He was charged with battery when photographs og the officer's cheekbone showed "redness and discoloration."
Mayweather is also due back in court on Jan. 24 regarding charges he faces for an alleged domestic violence incident with his former girlfriend. While Mayweather tries to get his life in order, boxing fans' dream Pacquiao-Mayweather matchup is put on hold – again. He's got to keep his confrontational instincts confined to the ring.
