Potato with Veggie Chili, Broccoli and Cheddar
- 1 medium potato
- 1 cup frozen broccoli florets
- 1 cup canned vegetarian chili or turkey chili with beans
- 1/4 cup shredded low-fat cheddar cheese
1. Wash potato, prick it 2 or 3 times with a knife, and microwave for 10 minutes, turning once. Heat broccoli and chili in a microwave or on stovetop. Top cooked potato with warm chili and broccoli. Sprinkle with cheese.
these recipes are pretty lazy, but with homemade tweaks, also pretty good.12/12/2012 08:46:08 PM Report Abuse
I think this is a good recipe. Microwave & potatos work well together. I would also make my own chili due to the sodium content and maybe add a tablespoon of fat free ranch to this. With those changes, I would give this a 4 stars.10/17/2011 06:42:14 AM Report Abuse
honestly, i would bake the potato in the oven and make my own vegetarian chili. hard to find canned here and when you do find it the sodium content is outrageous! make it in bulk and freeze it in individual containers!5/15/2010 05:12:41 PM Report Abuse

Human nature being what it is, trivial and surface manifestations of revolutionary exuberance will always have a fascination for the average reader.
—DOUGLAS GOLDRING,The Nineteen-Twenties (1945)
The 1920s were the great age of the press sensation. The defrocked vicar, the nightclub raid, the genteel murder, the man swallowed whole by the whale and regurgitated onto the sand bleached white by its gastric juices—all these were served up by mass-market newspapers as indiscriminately as a packet of hundreds and thousands. Middle-class
"Excellent . . . the brightest of the Bright Young People [make] their fictional counterparts in Waugh pale into insignificance . . . [Taylor] lays bare their cavortings with an archeological eye." —Philip Hoare, The Independent
"Taylor, for years a journalist, is fascinated by—and authoritative on—the lucrative relationship forged between the shrewdest of the Bright Young People and the glamour-hunting press . . . Shrewd and absorbing in his analysis of the way Waugh and Nancy Mitford . . . promoted the world they would soon skewer in fiction." —Miranda Seymour, The Sunday Times (London)
"Moving and always entertaining." —Jane Stevenson, The Daily Telegraph
"Fascinating . . . A complex study of family, fear and breakdown . . . Taylor's achievement is to remind us that there are few periods of recent history more culturally interesting than the years between the wars." —Frances Wilson, New Statesman
"A goldmine . . . If I had to choose one book as a summing up of the BYP, it would be Taylor's." —Bevis Hillier, The Spectator

Public Enemy #2: An All-New Boondocks Collectionby Aaron Mcgruder
Synopses & Reviews
Publisher Comments:
Heres the next big collection of Aaron McGruders The Boondocks, the most subversively funny, controversial, and politically engaged strip to be found in Americas comics pages. Featuring Huey Freeman, a radical preteen conspiracy theorist, and his little brother Riley, a desperately cute thug-in-training, The Boondocks skewers targets from George W. Bush and Ralph Nader to Queen Latifah and Bill Cosby. With more than 500 previously uncollected strips—including strips banned from newspapers around the country—Public Enemy #2 is a must-have collection of the sharpest satire being crafted today.
About the Author
Aaron McGruder is the creator of The Boondocks, which made its print debut in 1997 in The Diamondback, a student newspaper at the University of Maryland, and now appears daily in more than 300 newspapers around the country and online at www.boondocks.net. He is the author of the bestselling A Right to Be Hostile and the coauthor of Birth of a Nation. He lives in Los Angeles, California.

2012-03-01. M.I.A… Mea Culpa.
Above: Me, out of town, on and off assignment.
Well? I profusely apologize for my absence. I've been neglecting my blogging duties. Truth is, I've been busy busy. And after all was shot and the day was done, I was faced with an acute writer's block.
(What I was doing mostly was posting my little adventures on Instagram - I LOVE INSTAGRAM. If you end up missing me, even just a little bit, then what better way to keep up than to follow me there. My username is @joaocanziani . I promise not to disappoint… There's me, above, on and off assignment, and then below, some outtakes from various latest shoots, and then below that, some instagram pictures "off duty.")
Funnily enough, the year started a little slow that I got a little worried. But folks, the lesson here is that you cannot just sit on your ass and wait for things to happen. You have to make them happen (but you know that!).
So I got a call to shoot a fashion story in Palm Springs at the beginning of February. It wasn't a huge budget but it covered my assistant, some equipment, and my flight. I decided to do it, and take the opportunity to do some portfolio meetings in LA. Oh, and tell the whole world that I was going there, via email communication, and using the wonderful social media methods (they really work, do embrace them, just don't overdo it).
The meetings went great! I brought a couple of very fresh and very fragrant portfolios to ad agencies such as TBWA-Chiat Day, 72 and Sunny, and magazines like The Hollywood Reporter, among others. Then the calls started coming in. For the first time, it seemed, the news that I was in the West Coast was an alluring proposition for photo editors. First, it has a lot to do with building relationships, and even forming friendships if one is of similar sensibilities (which you may very likely be since we're all involved in the wonderful world of photography). Once they love you, and you love them back, they'll follow you wherever you go (it's a continual earning process).
Second (with apologies to LA photographers), I booked myself as a local. Meaning I take care of my travel and my accommodation while in LA. This may seem obvious to some, but it's important - at least to me - to go to great lengths to get the job. If I really want to shoot something, I will do whatever is necessary to shoot it. An editorial feature is an incredible opportunity for exposure, promotion, and putting something fresh in my book.
With one shoot in particular, I found myself weighing things in my head for a moment: I was very willing to fly myself somewhere (from LA) in order to do the shoot, even if the magazine was unwilling to pay for the flights, because the assignment was too good to pass up. Thankfully, I didn't have to do that at the end, but I learned that communicating this keenness was invaluable.
So what was a short work trip to LA turned into a longer trip with visits to San Diego and San Francisco (including more portfolio meetings there and a little day trip to wine country in Sonoma). Then I was back in New York for a day, leaving to Peru for another assignment the following day. By the time I was done, I was absolutely fried. But I loved it loved it all.
I'm back in New York now, available for more.
2012-01-09. In the spotlight!!
Let's start the new year right! My other blog, Subliminous.com, the one that has taken over my obsessive-compulsive photography life a bit, is now featured on Tumblr's Photography Spotlight.
Well, hell, cheers to that! And Happy New Year!!
I'm still floating in the clouds from the news I got yesterday: This blog is now listed in Tumblr's Spotlight for Photography. Not that it should matter, but a little bit of recognition feels good. So if you're already following me, I thank you from the bottom of my heart. And if you think your friends and your loved ones will enjoy this blog too, then go ahead and spread the word.
Thank you to my good friend, talented photographer, and NYC-partner-in-crime Nick Onken for the cool portrait of me shown on the Spotlight page. This was taken just this past New Years Eve at my place, surrounded by a few good friends. Thank you to the Tumblr editors as well, whoever you are. Ok, now go check out all the other awesome photographers listed on the Spotlight and follow them too!
2011-12-22. Have a happy Subliminous holiday.
If you got a little box from me like the ones above, then I think you're a very lucky guy (or gal) because it means I love you lots. (Please don't be hurt if you didn't… It was very very hard to put together a list of good friends, photographers, family and friends to send these to.)
I used the send the usual holiday cards in the past, but this year I felt like doing that was a little boring and too predictable. I not only wanted to promote my photography through my Subliminous blog, I also wanted to send something impactful that people would enjoy. So I came up with the crazy idea (it seemed crazy at the time), of sending a small chocolate with the word Subliminous embossed on top. My inspiration for these chocolates (and the name of the blog) was this Peruvian chocolate I used to love when I was a kid, called Sublime. (The name for Subliminous comes from Sublime, and Luminous… but I don't know if that gets lost in translation now.)
Then I came up with the idea of sending a sticker with the blog info. Again, a business card or a small postcard with a picture seemed the typical thing to do. Who sends colorful stickers these days, specially photographers?
My idea for the design for the stickers came from these Peruvian Chicha music posters I used to notice in the outskirts of Lima (like above). Growing up in Lima, I used to take them for granted, but then living so long abroad gave me a new-found appreciation for them. In fact, once I started researching this style, I became obsessed with it, and even started noticing them in New York.
So the research began. First, a chocolate maker that would be able to emboss the word Subliminous on the chocolate, in a similar fashion to the Peruvian chocolates. This seemed impossible. The chocolate makers I talked to either couldn't do it in time, couldn't emboss the words, or they would be prohibitively expensive. These chocolates were too "nice," like the fancy ones with filling people usually send to clients. What I wanted was something a bit more commercial, if you will, that looked a little more retro. Not so sophisticated please.
I was looking in all the wrong places.
If it wasn't for my amazing studio assistant Kathryn, I don't think I would have been able to pull this off. She found the perfect company that could do these, and they tasted pretty good too!
Well, the next step was the packaging. How were we supposed to mail these? Again, I wanted something colorful that people would be eager to open, similar to say, a box of postcards or greeting cards you find at gift shops. Doing something like that, beautifully designed and printed on really nice paper, was also way too expensive. So Kathryn looked up and down the internet for something appropriate. She ordered box samples from various companies, such as small wedding cake boxes (the kind you give to departing guests with a piece of the wedding cake). But these proved too flimsy to mail anything in them. And they came in very limiting (and cheesy) colors.
So we pored over the U-Line shipping catalogue to see if there was anything there we could use and customize. (If you don't know U-Line, then it is about time you should… they have everything you need in order to ship your artwork or whatever, and they're pretty nice and efficient too.)
After a little back and forth, and some brainstorming, we came up with the perfect solution: We decided to ship them in these small corrugated boxes measuring approximately 3 x 2 x 1 inches, and designing another sticker that would be die-cut in the shape of the box that we would then wrap the box with (above). We could design this sticker in the same Chicha style to the inside sticker.
I don't have any of these chocolates left, but I have plenty of these stickers, "From João with love…" If you would like one, you can email me and I'll mail you one.
Happy holidays from Perú lovely people.
2011-12-12. Common for Respect Magazine. And zombies.
I've been wanting to shoot more celebrities since I moved to New York. Seems counterintuitive, since they all appear to congregate in Los Angeles. But no matter, I see that New York-based photographers I admire shoot them often here too. It has been challenging to get, but it's possible.
So when Casey and Monique of Kids With Candy Productions (who apart from having a full plate producing, also moonlight as photo editors for Respect) approached me with the opportunity to shoot Common, I jumped on it. It didn't matter if I had to shoot him at midnight, or could only have him for five minutes. I would do it. I would adapt.
Careful what you wish for. All shoots come with their own particular set of challenges. But this one, ohhh.
We were told the shoot was going to take place at Warner Bros. in midtown. Call time was to be 4:30 pm on a Wednesday. After a lot of back and forth over a couple days, that changed to Thursday at 6:45 pm. Thankfully I was still available.
Since I wished to shoot him on the street as well, I wanted to head to the location a couple of hours earlier and scout around the area. And as it was going to be dark already, I decided to bring some lighting for that as well. (I was getting really excited… I wanted to try a colored gel or two on one of the strobes and attempt to get a sodium vapor look to one of the outdoor setups.)
Once we got there, and after more than half an hour of attempting to get all our equipment up the building, we were told by the receptionist upstairs that the shoot location had changed. We would have to meet Common and his team at Jay-Z's Roc The Mic Studios down on West 27th Street.
We headed back downstairs and hailed a cab. I really don't know how we did it, but my assistants Pete and Adam and I fit in the cab like sardines with all our equipment. Once we got to Roc The Mic, I got word that shooting him outside was no longer an option (no sodium vapor options this time). Fortunately there was a whole empty floor upstairs from the studio, white walls and clean. A blessing in disguise.
We got setup, went through scenarios, and waited until Common was ready. We waited….
Mr Common shows up finally with a small entourage of mostly women. Another man puts some music on from a small portable stereo. We get to work. Common was gracious and charming. But best of all, he was into the ideas I suggested… like, "let's jump!" (see below)
What's the moral of the story? At the end, what doesn't kill you makes you stronger, and all that. The shoot turned out amazing. I was so happy with it, that at the end of the shoot I got away with shooting Casey, Monique and my kind assistants Adam and Pete, acting out as… Zombies!
(Must have been because I was watching The Walking Dead at the time.)
2011-12-07. You go mom! A Helen Hamann exclusive.
If you're like me, you may be having a really hard time choosing gifts for your loved ones. Well, here's an idea. What about a beautiful hand-knitted alpaca sweater, made with lots of love in Peru, and designed by none other than… Yes, my mom.
Yet if your loved one prefers knitting those sweaters herself, here's another idea: A calendar for 2012 of her designs, the patterns of which are available by purchasing this calendar.
Or hell, just get the calendar because I think it's going to look great on your office wall. And because I'm really happy with how it turned out. I shot these pictures for my mom a few months back here in the studio, and got my very talented friend Oscar Ramos Orozco (of Behance fame) to design it.
Thank you so much Oscar, and thank you to the sultry Tereza Janáková for modeling these sweaters for us.
You can purchase the calendar here.
Or view more of my mom's sweaters on her website, helenhamann.com.

2011-12-02. Getting jiggy with it.
Now that the weekend is inevitably approaching, I leave you with these pictures of honorable members of the New York photo community "networking," as they do best. Pictures I took with my trusty, yet lately a little unreliable (the shutter is sticking… do I really have to take it to Nippon Camera for the 4th time?!) Yashica T4. (I insist on shooting with it because it's the most amazing feeling to get the pictures back after the anticipation of waiting for the film to be developed. (Pardontherunonsentence.))
So ok, these are from a couple of very official photo parties that I always love to attend, now that I live here: The PDN Photo Plus Expo Bash, and the American Photography and Illustration Party.
Enjoy. Have a great weekend. Until next time. Love you and all that.

2011-11-23. Ninety nine portraits.
Ex-cop: "Do you know what it means to be an anarchist?! It means I will brutally rape you and take all of your power and dominate you. It's survival of the fittest."
Anarchist girl: "Whatever, man."
— Overheard at Zuccotti Park, October 25, 2011.
This was just some of the colorful and varied dialogue we were witness to while shooting this project. Ninetynineportraits.com is now live.
I'm a contrarian at heart. Occupy Wall Street at Zuccotti Park was an event that overwhelmed my social media life. I didn't want to be yet another photographer in NYC documenting or tweeting about it. There was something about it that was calling me however. I needed to look for myself. I needed to be a part of it. Not to protest, but to stand there and sort of "shake hands" with everybody involved (the camera gives you unprecedented access if you really let it). To witness firsthand an important event I think we'll remember for a while.
It turned out to be one very rewarding experience, and very fruitful in my mind, despite the devil's advocates (i.e., one Bryan Formhals…) telling me otherwise at first. Because on those two days I met all kinds of passionate and/or crazy people. Including a young man apparently so high that he was operating on a completely different level (hope you don't get to run this country when you get a little older). The asshole that stood there and told prospective subjects not to pose for me because he claimed I would be profiting from all this. The lady who sold buttons right in the middle of the park, with the words written "WE ARE THE 99%" for five dollars. Five dollars! To visitors and tourists alike. The irony.
This is why I was fascinated with this. At first I was received with indifference. But then I felt I belonged there as much as the next person. For those two days, my seamless and my strobe lights became as much a part of Zuccotti Park as the tents and the banners. And just like they didn't seem to mind (or care) that the button lady was selling buttons there, most of the young protesters there met me with kindness and open-mindedness, eager to pose for my camera.
This wasn't just a protest. In my mind, this was also a reflection of who we are as a country. You may think your neighbor is out of his mind, but you let him be. And he probably thinks the same of you, but he lets you be too. (In most cases anyway.)
At any rate, Happy Thanksgiving, no?
2011-11-20. The 2011 NYC Marathon, two weeks ago today.
I ran my first marathon two weeks ago today, on Sunday, November 6. I decided to bring the Yashica T4 and a couple of rolls of film, and shoot the experience. Here are some pictures from that day, and a couple from the day after. I wish these pictures could capture the excruciating pain and excitement and ultimate euphoria. They'll just be quiet reminders instead.
A few people have said that running 26.2 miles is not a good thing for the human body. Quite a few tell me about issues with knees. Yesterday a friend was telling me about a friend who had to quit at mile 18 because he started feeling a weird pain in one of his legs. Doctors checked him the next few days but found nothing. So he got a CAT scan and they found a brain tumor, thankfully discovered in time.
Anyway, I didn't want to listen to those people. There's a lot we do that is unnatural to the human body. We smoke, we fly in space, we drink to oblivion. If you think about it, we're killing ourselves every day, with these pleasures and addictions that we can't seem to shake off. Well, every day that goes by gets us closer to death. A little excess sometimes is not a bad thing. Tempting death, even in minuscule amounts, is a reminder that we're very much alive.
Those people were right. But who cares?
Because me too, at around mile 18 (the famous "wall" comes at around mile 20), started feeling these cramps in my legs, and they intensified as I continued. They became so unbearable towards the end that I had to stop for a little bit. I drank some gatorade, ate a little banana. And started walking again. I seriously thought that I was going to have to walk the last three miles.
People on the sides are screaming my name, because it's written on my t-shirt. There's thousands of people watching this thing. With a little of that encouragement, I thought, What's a couple more miles? I started running again. They seemed the longest and most painful I have ever experienced. I mentioned to some friends afterwards that my legs felt as if they had turned to glass, and I could easily shatter them any minute. There was really no option but to ignore the pain and continue.
My mistake was probably starting too fast. My dad, who was tracking me online from Peru, wrote me an email right at the beginning, "João!! Slow down! You're going too fast!!" Dad, I wasn't checking my emails at the time… Well, I paid for it at the end. But that's ok. I did it just under four hours, and that to me was quite an achievement.
2011-11-18. In light of recent events.
I took the following pictures on October 21st and 25th at Zucotti Park in downtown NYC. Behind-the-scenes — sort to speak — taken with my Yashica T4 while I was shooting a personal project there, which I will unveil early next week.
Like virtually every photographer in the NYC area, I decided to visit the park and check it out. Unlike today, it was relatively calm then. The atmosphere was welcoming. The protests peaceful. The park had also become a media circus, and a tourist attraction. Businessmen stopped by on their lunch breaks. German and Japanese tourists took pictures as if this was one more stop in their Manhattan itinerary, right after walking across the Brooklyn Bridge.
So I got the crazy idea that I wanted to do something photographically about it. I wanted to take portraits of the people I encountered there, to perhaps shed a light to the whole phenomenon that Occupy Wall Street has become. In my mind, it didn't just have to be the protesters. This had become something more… I'm oftentimes more interested in how we perceive an event in reality than the event itself. And this perception nowadays includes and is saturated by the Media, twitter, Facebook, and every passerby with their iPhone camera. But this was crazy because I thought, "how am I going to come up with something original from something I feel everybody and their mother is covering ad nauseam?"
Only time will tell.
So wait till next week for this project. I'm really excited about it. In the meantime, enjoy these.
2011-11-10. American Photography 27!
If you're in NYC, tonight is the AI-AP party. What's that, you say? Another expensive photography (and illustration) competition, that's what. Yet the photography they pick year after year is always impressive, influential, and raw. I always look at the books they publish of the winning entries for inspiration. They throw a good party too.
Apologies in advance if you've already seen the image below to death. Well, happy to announce that it was "selected" to be included in this year's book. In addition, the image above (from my Ciudad Natal series, which I will unveil soon), was "chosen" to appear in the AI-AP website.
Now let's get those commissions rolling!! (Right.)
Today I'll be posting other winning entries that were selected and chosen for this year's American Photography on Subliminous.com. There's some amazing stuff in there. Take a look.

Dewey suffers another eight partner losses as NY team quits for Hunton
Readers' comments (17)
The ship is sinking and the rats are jumping.
Didn't the Howrey debacle play out a bit like this?
This looks like a snowball rolling down a hill very fast.
It's amazing how fast a big firm can implode these days.
A process which might have played out over a period of years in the past now takes just a few months (although the rot obviously set in long ago).
You can't make this up -- this is an actual quote from Dewey today (17 April):
"The number who have left to date, including firm initiated reductions, is consistent with the reduced headcount contemplated by our plan, which contemplates limited further headcount reduction over the next several months," the statement says.
I could have sworn that this quote was used by the management at Heller and Howrey as well.
Here are the infidels leaving, who will repeat the same elsewhere. Thus, there is no problem at all, it is a self clean process. Then the firm will do much better without them.
"Anonymous | 17-Apr-2012 6:07 pm
Here are the infidels leaving, who will repeat the same elsewhere. Thus, there is no problem at all, it is a self clean process. Then the firm will do much better without them."
Oh dear, the closest thing to support for Dewey looks like a deliberate parody...
It looks like the tipping point has been reached - the partners left behind who are too slow to get the hell out now will be left with a mountain of debt to pay off.
Desperate times call for desperate measures!!! How desperate must these Dewey guys be to jump to Hunton. From one sinking ship to another very leaky ship. I hope that the Dewey guys come wearing life preserves and carrying buckets as they will have to use them again pretty shortly!!
Rats leaving a sinking ship indeed! They will soon realise there is no cheese at Hunton and will be off to their next gig soon enough!
Hunton's profitability is so poor that these guys must be so desperate to take such a pay cut to join Huntons
I predict that Huntons is the new Dewey ...can't believe their international offices are sustainable
Its hard to see any way forward for Dewey ...its a real pity that quality lawyers have to find themselves moving to a very odd mid-tier firm
People are being horribly unfair on Huntons. Yes it has had a lot of problems in London where it is office is a basket case but its offices in the States are solid.
Unfair... its a fair characterisation of Huntons which is a firm that is going no where... and is just there to make up the numbers... its is the ultimate quality free zone
It would have been better if Hunton hired in London. They don't have enough lawyers to field a football team in their london office... obviously London isn't a priority...
Its quality not quantity that is important and though we are small we have that in spades
Keep telling yourself that... Huntons is an irrelevance and is a firm going no where .... Anybody smart could work that out

Fairport Harbor Lighthouse &Marine Museum
Welcome to our site. Finnish Heritage Museum is dedicated to preserve Finnish and Finnish/North American Heritage for future generations and to provide all visitors with an opportunity to learn about and better understand Finnish and Finnish/North American history and culture.
Historically, the Finns have found a spiritual belief and church attendance more than a requisite; they had woven it into their very life fabric. The physical church was most likely in the center of every Finnish community to serve as the hub of daily or weekly activity. At the very least, members would attend the Sunday service which was deemed mandatory, by custom and not necessarily by rules.
Life in Finland for many was a difficult life, with so much dependent upon items which were simply out of the control of man's efforts. Crops, medical issues, births, money, land and other things brought hardships, often drastically changing the lives of that particular family unit. Add to that, domination by other countries or principalships which added to that suffering.
Even with those handicaps, the strength of the Finnish resolve shines through. Rather than have those consequences overwhelm the Finns, they turned to their pastors and to the physical church to help them through whichever harm or possible ruin lay within their futures. The church building became so central that pictures, paintings, needlepoints, or church symbols or artifacts decorated their front or sitting rooms.
The Finnish Heritage Museum used these ideas to capture the real spirit and meaning of churches which were in their family' s history. Thus through audience participation, many churches were discussed, and many fascinating artifacts were shared........Click Here

Since traveling to Finland last year to visit the rural hometowns of his grandparents, Ron Toivonen has experienced many goose-bump coincidences. They've served to reconnect the 76-year-old Concord Township man with his Mentor past and a community-wide post-World War II effort to help an impoverished town in Finland.
Upon his return from that life-altering trip to the homeland of his ancestors, Toivonen got involved with the Finnish Heritage Museum in Fairport Harbor.
A deceased amateur historian and genealogist had left the museum dozens....Click here for the rest of the story.
In the picture above, Ron Toivonen points to his father in a 1949 picture discovered in a scrapbook by Kathie Pohl, city of Mentor communications director. She was given the scrapbook while researching for the book "Mentor: The First 200 Years," which includes a story about the project undertaken by Mentor residents to help the the people of Suolahti, Finland. This story is provided by Janet Podolak and the News Herald.
Kathie Pohl paid a visit to the Finnish Heritage Museum on July 14, and formally presented the Sointula File to Ron Toivonen. She explained why she was there and the circumstances behind the donation. Ron Toivonen accepted the information and vowed that he would complete the project.
Incidentally, Kathie Pohl retired from Mentor, Ohio where she successfully directed Mentor's marketing and community relations for twenty five years. She has accepted the position of Fairport Harbor's new economic development director. She obviously has some great contacts at FHM.

"I do wish the sample gave the option for the pink backside instead of only the yellow option. It was still very nice. Also, I really wish it gave the option for the shiny print."
"I love this invitation. My only recomemdation would be to get a colored envelope. Since the invitation is white and very simple in design, a soft colored envelope would make it stand out a little more."
"There were no surprises in ordering and receiving this invitation. The printed colors, the quality of the paper and printing, the customer service- everything was professionally done. I loved the card. I added a picture of myself and my daughter as an infant to the back side of it, The free designer service was helpful in doublechecking the quality and placement of the text and picture."
"Loved everything about this invitation from the colors to the font. Simple and adorable. Great quality and fast delivery."
"These are so adorable, the quality of the card is very nice, not thin and flimsy like I was expecting. Can't wait until I send them out! Shipping and the design review was fast. Very happy with the product :)"

"You know why I'm getting the free water? Because Chick-fil-A is a hateful corporation."
The video went viral as soon as it was posted to the web. A former Arizona CFO and one time lecturer at University of Arizona posted video of himself verbally attacking a Chick-fil-A employee because the head of her company spoke out against gay marriage.
That Tucson employee gained internet fame for how she handled the overzealous customer.
She spoke to Fox News about the ordeal.
Rachel said her training and upbringing got her through the minute and a half of the odd exchange with the customer -- and she was just as polite on fox news as she was when she worked the drive-thru.
She took 'service with a smile' to a whole new level.
"He was looking for me to react poorly. It's not my personality, I would never do anything hateful in return to someone."
The 26-year-old who only wants to go by her first name, Rachel, acquired internet fame for her politeness after customer Adam Smith posted a YouTube video of him belittling her in the drive thru during last week's Chick-fil-A appreciation day.
Smith: "You know why I'm getting the free water? Because Chick-fil-A is a hateful corporation."
Rachel: "I disagree -- we don't treat our customers any differently --"
Smith: "I know but the corporation gives money to hate groups. I'm glad I can take money away from Chick-fil-A and maybe less money to hate groups. I don't know how you live with yourself and work here."
Smith was fired from his job as CFO of a Tucson medical manufacturing company because of the video. He later issued a YouTube apology to Rachel.
"While I might not agree with everyone's views I always want to treat the other person with respect. I didn't do that with you," said Smith.
When asked to respond to his apology, the 26-year-old was still serving up kindness.
"I forgive you I really hope that America will forgive you and treat you with the respect I chose to treat you with that day."
Smith initially went back to Rachel's restaurant to apologize in person but she didn't want to talk with him at the time, saying she was still overwhelmed by the gravity of the ordeal.
Now she says she'd like to meet him face to face even though he already apologized.

Path Stories: Searching for Love
We launched Search over a year ago to help you tell great stories. It's for showing your friend those photos you'd taken at the beach or finding that awesome sushi place you'd gone to while on vacation.
Some of the most delightful experiences people have with Search aren't when they look for something specific, but rather when they search a few days or months or years back and resurface small, yet meaningful moments. "Oh wow, I forgot about that!" is often what we hear people say.
This Valentine's Day, we encourage you to be nostalgic. Search back through the past weeks, months, even years. You may rediscover some special moments you might've forgotten with friends and loved ones.
To get you started, here are a few searches to try: "my first moment", "six months ago", "Valentine's Day".
We leave you with this Search story from one of our Path users…
I started using Path when it first launched — that was 3 years and 2,335 moments ago. All together, those two thousand moments tell the story of my life in San Francisco, my journey becoming an entrepreneur, and most importantly, my relationship with my wife, Alex.
I had been using Path by myself, and with a few other friends. But when Path 2 launched, I forced Alex to get it. I thought it would be the perfect way to keep in touch with each other when we were apart. She joined and it took off; according to Path her first moment was on February 13th, 2011.
When Search launched, I noticed I could type in Alex's name and see all the moments I had tagged her in and all the ones she'd shared. Looking back, I realized that we had documented every single one of our milestones over the past 3 years. And even though we've been together for almost 8 years at this point, during the time we've been on Path we've grown from girlfriend and boyfriend, to getting engaged, to Mr and Mrs. Perry.
Some of the moments we've shared are obvious favorites - our travels to Boston to visit her grandma, our wedding photos, signing our marriage license… But I discovered that the ones I enjoyed reliving the most were all the small dates and every day moments that we had quickly forgotten. I found photos of that game at Fenway, that time at the coffee shop - all these little instances that added up to something very special.
And that's why I love Path. - Michael, California
Happy Valentine's Day from the Path Team!

Old Fire Dragaman
The Jack Tales
Told by R.M. Ward and his kindred in the
Beech Mountain section of Western North
Carolina & by other descendants of COUNCIL
HARMON (1803-1896) elsewhere in the Southern
Mountains; with three tales from Wise County,
Set down from these sources and edited by
Richard Chase; illustrated by Berkely
Williams, Jr.
Houghton Mifflin: Boston, 1971
The Story
The plot of this other Old Fire Dragaman is roughly the same as that of the Haley's
Jack and the Fire Dragon
retelling. See comparative note below.
Comparative Note:
Haley's version
, the Old Fire Dragaman remains a Giant with human features and Never turns into a Dragon. However, fire ball spitting, dwelling under ground, being gluttonous, kidnapping maidens: the character traits of these two monsters are almost identical. There is also no associating the fire balls to that of the comits at the end of this telling.

I had this guys install a new sprinkler system in my house. This guys were fast and efficient installing my new sprinkler system. When I got the bid from Carlos the owner, he said he only uses professional parts for all his repairs and new installations. He did what he said he would do and did a great job!! I would highly recommend this guys to do your sprinkler system because they are fast and efficient and their prices are very reasonable too!!! I'm very pleased with my new sprinkler system, Thanks Buena Vista Landscaping!!!

These guys came out to my home a few weeks ago and did an amazing job!!! Carlos did exactly what he said he would. He took time to answer all of my questions and taught me a few things to help me with my yard. He treated me like I was more than just a paycheck for him. I was extremely pleased with everything!!! Buena Vista Landscaping will always be my go to company for any landscaping needs. I HIGHLY recommend them!!!

Pupils struggling with English and maths when they start secondary school are to be given intensive tuition funded by a £50m "catch-up premium", the Deputy Prime Minister has announced.
Lib Dem leader Nick Clegg at the party's autumn conference. Image: Liberal Democrats
Addressing his party's annual conference, Nick Clegg said that 109,000 young people would receive additional help in literacy and numeracy this academic year through a catch-up premium of £500 for every 11-year-old pupil who is falling behind.
The funding, which is being made available because of an underspend in the Department for Education's (DfE) budget, will be allocated to schools in January and guaranteed every year for the rest of this Parliament.
Clegg, said secondary school is "a massive step up for pupils" when much bigger demands are placed on their abilities.
"Pupils who start secondary school behind their peers should be given every chance to catch up as quickly as possible," he said. "The funding I'm announcing today will allow schools to provide intensive tuition to help pupils to get up to speed and so get the best out of their secondary school education."
Chris Keates, general secretary of the teaching union NASUWT, said extra cash to support pupils' needs is "always to be welcomed", but called for "far more information on how this initiative is being funded".
"The DfE says the funding is from an 'underspend'," she said. "At a time of severe cuts to education spending how exactly has such a large underspend occurred and in which area of the budget?
"For the sake of pupils and schools let's hope that this is not just another repackaging and recycling exercise which in reality makes little or no difference to pupils."
Secondary schools will receive an additional £500 for every year 7 pupil who has not achieved at least Level 4 at Key Stage 2 in reading or maths. In 2012, 13 per cent of pupils leaving primary school failed to gain a Level 4 in reading and 16 per cent in maths.

- I choose the depo-shot cause I realize so much easier to take then having to take pills everyday. Plus after four kids and not wanting anymore. This was the best option for me until I can have my tubes tied.
- —Guest Amanda
Why i chose the shot
- I chose the depo shot because I am 17 and I'm not finished with school yet so I thought it would be good to not have an baby at an early age even though I live with my boy friend. I want to be able to take care of me and my child at the same time. This shot is good for those who have sex a lot. I didn't want to get pregnant till way after school.
- —Guest JaqQuan
Can't get pregnant
- I choose depo because i thought it would be a good alternative for me. But now, I feel this was as horrible choice. It has been taking me forever to get pregnant. I didn't realize that it can take up to (and even over a year) for your fetility to begin again after stopping depo provera.
- —Guest shadyeyah
- the first time ive got the depo, I had some side effects and then they went away. Other than some mild side effects, everything's been good :D but i will be switching to something else soon because of what it does to my bones, im 16 and ive been taking it for over a year.
- —Guest Suteishii
Love Depo!
- I have been on depo now for 5 weeks and have only experienced a few mild side effects - maybe because I started depo on the same day that I had my mirena IUD removed. I liked the idea of depo... no estrogen, no pills, no stress- just 4 shots a year. I feel more in control than I did with Mirena (I got nervous it wasn't in the right place, couldn't feel the strings, etc.). With depo, I know once I get that shot, I'm good to go for 12 weeks... no worries. Overall, I am having a pleasant experience with this form of birth control!
- —Guest missy
Perfect amount of time
- I got depo because I'm not reliable enough for the pill and the implant seemed too long to have for 3 years. An injection every 3 months seemed perfect to me.
- —Guest Mee
so disappointed
- I started depo about 2 1/2 yrs ago so i wouldnt get pregnant after my son was born. Have been off depo for over a yr and have decided to have another baby but am now having trouble getting pregnant, i havent had any problems before depo i have two kids i am positive its because of depo that im having problems now. Wish i would have never taken it. Beware all women who do want to have children in the future dont ever take the depo shot!
- —Guest mama bear
- I chose depo because it was hassle free, done every 3 months, 99.9% effective, no interference with life.
- —Guest MJ
No estrogen
- I went on the Depo shot because i estrogen caused me to have frequent headaches with auras. I have been on it more alittle over a year.
- —Guest amanda
- After having my first child 4 years ago i decided to get on depo because it seemed like the best birth control (no periods, no cramps, no pills and only 4 visits to the doctor in a year) and because my husband and i werent planning on getting pregnant any time soon.
- —Guest iyr
- I have been on Depo for 8 years now and Its's amazing I had no bleeding since the first shot I haven't had a period since the day I recived my first shot and I don't have any cramping or anything and I don't get sick and I haven't gained any wieght at all but I do exercise every day!
- —Guest Amber
- By my second shot of the Depo I had no more side effects. Depo does have different side effects for different people. . But so far I find it a lot easier to use than the pill.
- —Guest Jenny Smith
Why I chose the Depo shot - GREAT CHOICE
- I am 27 years old and I have been on the shot for 3 years. I chose it for numerous reasons. The first is the obvious... I didn't want to get pregnant. Second, I was on the pill for 6 years before that and I always had a hard time remembering to take it at the same time every day. Lastly, I heard that it lightened periods (which my pill did). I haven't gotten a period since my first shot. I absolutely love it!
- —Guest Stefanie
Why you choose the depo shot?
- My group home social worker and my doctor told me to get it.
- —Guest Dominique
Love It!!!!
- I been on depo shots for almost 7 years. I stopped it in 2008-2009 when I joined da military. Then I had a little girl and I got back on Depo... I've never had any complications - I love the depo shot....
- —Guest Porcha

You guys are fools. Most of these products are not milkshakes. Milkshakes are made with ice cream. YOur moronic food critic admits that Rita's does not sell ice cream but picks them as havingthe best of a product they don't sell. Most of the other choices do not have ice cream in them.

Then, we do have the Darrelle Revis contract. You would like to think that he will not cause a problem in 2013, coming off of injury. But, you have to wonder if he still might. He may be looking for an extension so he isn't playing on a walk year. Maybe he does hold out? How does the new GM deal with the Revis contract, when the time comes? Does he consider a trade, in order to start rebuilding this team? As we have said before, it has to be considered, and you all know that this will be a major issue, especially to Jets fans.
And we have a lot of unrestricted free agents to think about. Does he figure out a way to bring back LaRon Landry? What about fan favorite Mike DeVito? Do they let him walk off the Jets line? Braylon Edwards wants to be back, does the GM oblige? Brandon Moore and Matt Slauson are two guys, and major players on the offensive line. Can they afford to let Slauson go in favor of Ducasse? What about Moore? These are important calls to make.
What about Dustin Keller? We know how the quarterback feels about him, but the fact is he has been more than injury prone. Is it time to let DK walk? Don't forget about Shonn Greene. Whether we like him or not, he did come off his second straight thousand yard season. Do the Jets move ahead with him, or is it time to move in another direction? Not to be out done, Yeremiah Bell is an unrestricted free agent as well. Can they bring him back in addition to Landry? Will one come back for a hometown discount? These are crucial decisions that will have to be made quickly.
It's definitely taking some time to line up this new general manager. Let's hope they get the right guy, because it's not going to be easy.

MARCH 4, 2013 / 7:00-9:00pm
The Chapel, 6238 Alexander Dr., Clayton, MO 63105.
Auditions will consist of cold readings from both scripts. Please bring a resume and a headshot.
The Woman in Black directed by Rachel Tibbetts
A ghost story performed by two actors, this play-within-a-play is about a menacing specter, storytelling, and the nature of fear. A lawyer hires an actor to tutor him in recounting to family and friends a story that has long troubled him concerning events that transpired when he attended the funeral of an elderly recluse. There he caught sight of the Woman in Black, the mere mention of whom terrifies the locals, for she is a specter who haunts the neighborhood where her illegitimate child was accidentally killed. The lawyer has invited some friends to watch as he and the actor recreate the events.
Bachelorette directed by Rachel Tibbetts
Ten years out of high school, Regan, Gena and Katie convene in the luxurious bridal suite of their old friend, Becky, the night before her wedding in New York City. Fueled by jealousy and resentment, the girls embark on a night of debauchery that goes from playfully wasted to devastatingly destructive. Their old fears, unfulfilled desires and deep bonds with each other transform a prenuptial bender into a night they'll never forget. A wicked black comedy about female friendship and growing up in an age of excess.
If you would like to audition, please e-mail: firstname.lastname@example.com. Please indicate which production you will be auditioning for and what times you are available. All positions are paid. Casting is the decision of the producers.

|The Growing Politicization of Open Source
|2002-08-16 15:47:39
Mr. O'Reilly's anonymous correspondent writes: "... But what we're getting is attempts to *require* use of Open Source software - effectively criminalizing an official's decision to buy commercial software to meet their needs. First in Peru, and now here."
I apologize for not knowing in depth the DSSA proposal, but i can speak about the rationale behind the Peruvian project (and, BTW, the Argentinian and Colombian ones). According to all these projects, no official would be punished by licensing propietary software [1,2] as far as he/she can convincingly prove that no free/open-source solution exists for his/her needs. The projects just mandate the usage of open formats, and the usage of use of free/open-source software when and if it can satisfy a specific need (please see Article 5 of the Peruvian project, Article 4 of the Argentinian Project), and establishes the alternatives in case a free solution is not available: 1. development of a free solution, if there are no time/cost constraints; 2. usage of a non-free solution (within some established piorities).
Viewing this as a menace to freedom is propagation of FUD. It seems that MS's message has reached farther than expected.

"According to all these projects, no official would be punished by licensing propietary software [1,2] as far as he/she can convincingly prove that no free/open-source solution exists for his/her needs."
First, this assumes that open-source software and free software are the same thing. Shouldn't this be rewritten as "no official would be punished by licensing propietary software [1,2], as far as he/she can convincingly prove that no free solution (whether open- or closed-source) exists for his/her needs."?
Second, this puts the price of the software solution as the most important factor. What about the scenario where there is open-source software that is free and will do the job, but nobody can guarantee that it is secure enough and would not pose risk for the IT infrastructure of the government? Should this software be preferred to a closed-source software whose vendor is willing to guarantee the security of it's solution?
The open source does not intrinsically guarantee any of these principles:
* Free access to public information.
* Permanence of public data.
* Security of the State and citizens.
Furthermore, the open source software has nothing to do with these principles. Will any open source program actually guarantee to me that the public data will be permanent or secure if maintained by it to the degree that i could sue the software vendor (who would that be in the case of gcc btw)? In fact, these bills in it's current form put the second and the third principles at stake since they mandate that the government officials make their choice based on whether the software is open source and free and not whether it conforms to any levels of acceptance (as it should be).
2002-08-16 16:00:48 cinabrium [View]
I forgot the notes. My apologies :)
[1] Licensing, not purchasing. Unless you own the intellectual property of the software, you *NEVER* buy it. You just get a permission from the owner of the IP to *use* it within certain restrictions.
[2] Proprietary, not commercial. There is a lot of free software which is traded for profit (e.g. any "commercial" Linux distribution, as good as a lot of propietary software at no cost (think of distributed.net's clients).

Michael Stone Bumps His Head – Concussion? Really?
You know I read about the concerns of coaches and parents and the increasing frequency of concussions suffered during sports, especially football games. Their concerns are understandable, who else is going to take care of our kids if it's not their adult mentors?
Pro football players go through this all of the time, but radio air personalities?

Yesterday, one of my co-workers Ashley caught me a little off guard saying "Michael Stone, what's your New Year's resolution"?

A perfect night, despite it's imperfections. That's how I might describe last night's show. I was the opening act for Karla Bonoff at The Rialto Theater in Loveland, Colorado.
Broken strings, a warm audience and continuance of my musical resurrection, made my performance truly memorable. No matter how often I perform I get the jitters.

Type 2 diabetes is increasing in young people. In 1990, fewer than 4 percent of children were diagnosed with this disease.
