Product Description
Pierce Brosnan stars in a new movie version of the classic adventure tale Robinson Crusoe. After killing a friend in a duel, Crusoe flees his native Scotland and takes to the high seas. A storm casts him ashore on an island in the Indian Ocean, where he builds himself a home out of bamboo and goes a little crazy from solitude--until he finds a footprint in the sand that isn't his. The relationship between Crusoe and Friday, a native from a neighboring island, gets a more contemporary (less colonial) interpretation than in the original story; the result is quite enjoyable. Brosnan is particularly good at depicting Crusoe's borderline madness from isolation, and William Takaku gives Friday both dignity and intelligence. The cinematography of the island is gorgeous. --Bret Fetzer --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

As a person who is fond of all whole and decent tales, I can say truly, after watching this movie, (dubbed inaccurately "Robinson Crusoe") I felt ill. Not that the story was completely re-written, for, as we all know, a re-written story can be excellent at times. But, that through this lame attempt to make the racial issues in "Robinson Crusoe" (the book) palatable to the modern mindset; instead of focusing on the gracious example of Friday, or the moral of the story, this movie seems to wish to overlook any true illustration of decency.... offering, instead, the crippled climax of man's incompetence.
Not wishing the reader to assume this review was written in a furious attempt to squash any chances the movie might have for some mischievous reason of my own, I would like to assure all who may look upon these words, this is as unprejudiced and accurate a report as possible.
The best that may be said for this film is that the actor, (Pierce Brosnan) did show some talent in portraying George Miller and Rod Hardy's mediocre account of Robinson.
Though other of Pierce Brosnan's rolls are a deal more enjoyable, no one can quite dislike him, no matter the ruffian he plays. Though it comes close, I admit.
For the storyline itself, I leave you to rely on previous reviews, which, I'm sure will do a thorough job depicting and dissecting this fable.
The ONLY similarities between the Defoe classic and this film are as follows: the lead character's name is Robinson Crusoe, the savage's name is Friday, and Crusoe is shipwrecked on an island. The Tom Hanks film Cast Away is closer to Defoe's plot line than this film (and has much better acting and dialogue).
Granted, this script has far more action than the original work (Crusoe's ship apparently had an unlimited supply of salvageable gunpowder) as Crusoe becomes an almost comical booby-trap-setting military strategist defending against a savage onslaught (if you liked Disney's Swiss Family Robinson, you may actually enjoy the exploding tree houses and rope-traps that predictably befall the ignorant savages). But the film's action, can't keep an otherwise unriveting plot and medicore acting afloat.
In sum, read the classic, watch Cast Away and the Swiss Family Robinson, and pray for the careers of the script writers and director of this poor film.
Although it bears little resemblance to DeFoe's original, there is little room in our world now for Colonialism, and though I regret that Friday kept his religion, I am grateful for the dignity by which he was treated. I especially appreciated how they showed him to be physically an equal and in some ways a superior to Robinson. Having grown up in PNG, and living in both cultures, I actually thought they gave Crusoe much more physical strength and endurance than I would have, in comparison to the strength of the locals. (o: I appreciated so much that Friday did not speak gibberish, and that, despite his early desire to eat the heart of his enemy to gain his enemy's strength, he acted with dignity throughout the rest of the movie.
I did think the DOG was the weak point of the movie. No dog that pampered could have survived catching his own food, and even if he had found food, he would never have looked so glossy and healthy in a tropical climate. (o: I also found that the dog didn't play enough of an important role to warrant Crusoe's grief over his death, or over the desecration of his grave. (o:

Adverse effect of excessive work on health has been suggested previously, but it was not documented in cerebrovascular diseases.
The authors investigated whether excessive working conditions would associate with increased risk of haemorrhagic stroke.
A nationwide matched case-control study database, which contains 940 cases of incident haemorrhagic stroke (498 intracerebral haemorrhages and 442 sub-arachnoid haemorrhages) with 1880 gender- and age- (±5-year) matched controls, was analysed. Work-related information based on the regular job situation, including type of occupation, regular working time, duration of strenuous activity during regular work and shift work, was gathered through face-to-face interviews. Conditional logistic regression analyses were used for the multivariable analyses.
Compared with white-collar workers, blue-collar workers had a higher risk for haemorrhagic stroke (odds ratio, 1·33 [95% confidence interval, 1·06–1·66]). Longer regular working time was associated with increased risk of haemorrhagic stroke [odds ratio, 1·38 (95% confidence interval, 1·05–1·81) for 8–12 h/day; odds ratio, 1·95 (95% confidence interval, 1·33–2·86) for ≥13 h/day; compared with ≤4 h/day]. Exposure to ≥8 h/week of strenuous activity also associated haemorrhagic stroke risk [odds ratio, 1·61 (95% confidence interval, 1·26–2·05); compared with no strenuous activity]. Shift work was not associated with haemorrhagic stroke (P = 0·98). Positive associations between working condition indices and haemorrhagic stroke risk were consistent regardless of haemorrhagic stroke sub-types and current employment status.
Blue-collar occupation, longer regular working time and extended duration of strenuous activity during work may relate to an increased risk of haemorrhagic stroke.

After receiving numerous compliments on a pair of simple oxfords she had made while in Marrakech, it only made sense for New York designer Tory Noll to launch a footwear line inspired by that very pair. Every pair of TEN & Co. shoes is cut from vintage blankets, antique kilims, and supple leathers scoured from the souks and flea markets of Morocco. Simple and oh so lovely.

In October I made my first trip out to Joshua Tree, and it's amazing surroundings, to celebrate my birthday with my boyfriend and our dog Gordos. In just 3 days and 2 nights we hiked Joshua Tree National Park, camped in Jumbo Rocks, made a quick stop at the World Famous Crochet Museum, experienced glamping at the Hicksville trailer park hotel, and ended the trip with a visit to the glorious Salvation Mountain. Apparently Leonard Knight, the man behind this colorful mountain, has recently become sick and there has been talk of his life's work being torn down. Though I'm not a religious person, I can appreciate his artistic dedication.

I previewed her book on Kindle before buying it and was in awe of our shared feelings (full disclosure: I need to lose about 50 pounds but even that amount has been an obstacle to me for many years, so I can fully imagine how impossible it must feel to lose 150 pounds ): the terror of going to the doctor, the humiliation and misery of shopping for clothes, the sadness of watching life go by. She tells her story with great honesty and it's clear that, even though she's now on the "other side," the skinny side, she feels great compassion for those of us who haven't yet gotten our acts together.
I highly recommend this book. Diane includes great questions throughout each chapter to get you thinking and probing down into your own weight loss issues and obstacles that may be keeping you (me) from weight loss success.
The 3 major components of her plan, which she calls the Fit to the Finish plan, are fat percent, portion size, and exercise.
I found, for me, the fat percent part didn't quite make sense. It's certainly not worth taking a star from this review. Although she says she did not want to count calories or count fat grams in order to lose weight (which, btw, was the reason I bought this Kindle book; I was intrigued by someone who had lost so much weight without having to count either of those things!), she then explains that when she finally got serious about weight loss, she decided to keep her daily fat consumption to a 30 percent range, using the food item's nutrition information label and a formula (calories from fat divided by calories per serving = total % of fat). Aarrggh!Read more ›
I've followed Diane's blog about her weight loss, Fit to the Finish, over the years, since I, too, have lost weight and written about it in How We Did It. I appreciate her approach to weight loss. She's not a bully or a cheerleader. Instead, she is a knowledgeable and inspiring guide. Her approach is one of quiet confidence: "I did it, and so can you." Hers is the perfect approach to weight loss, as it builds an inner desire to succeed, rather than relying on external motivators that will eventually fail.
In her book, Diane tells stories of her years as an obese young wife and mother, the agonies of day-to-day interactions with others as well as the self-condemning inner dialog that kept her running to food for comfort, trapping herself in her burgeoning body. It takes a brave person to reveal so many embarrassing moments (not to mention before photos!). Diane, I just want to say... I think you're beautiful in that church directory photo. I don't see the person you do!
Along with her personal story, Diane includes useful information about nutrition, exercise and weight loss strategies, like how to grocery shop, read labels, and estimate caloric needs. She includes sections on the importance of planning and forethought when on a mission to lose weight. She even includes her favorite family recipes. I had been looking for an easy gazpacho recipe, and here it is!Read more ›
Unlike any other "diet" books I have read...this is the first one I have marked up and have made notations in the margins reminding me I am not alone in the things I have dine with regards to eating and hiding it. More importantly she shares how she has overcome...been successful, not only in losing the weight BUT keeping it off. She breaks things down and asks you to answer some hard questions about your self, developing a plan of attack to help you be successful in your weight loss efforts.
Diane does not leave out the key component of exercise and even gives you a strength training exercise "How-to's".
Diane also includes recipes that I am eager to try.
In the back she has included tools to help you along your way int he appendix section.
I really cannot say enough good about this book! I loved it and it will be read many more times along my journey.
Diane is very quick to reveal her experience as a "closet" eater and then gently turns to the mirror to the reader, probing you to look deep inside your soul to find out your connection to food.
Three steps to her plan - that's it! There are templates to help you plan your success, healthy recipes with ingredients that do not require a special trip to a health food store, and concrete ways to help you master your own success, including exercises that you can do at home without going to a gym.
Make plans now to respect yourself in a new light by starting your new road to improved health! You will want to own both this book and your own destiny!

For work use, Microsoft Word and Excel programs pre-installed on the device are adequate for preparing short documents.

The Fujitsu LifeBook UH574 allowed for great mobility without being obnoxiously heavy or clunky. Its twelve hours of battery life did not disappoint.

The screen was particularly good. It is bright and visible from most angles, however heat is an issue, particularly around the Windows button on the front, and on the back where the battery housing is located.
Simon Harriott
My first impression after unboxing the Q702 is that it is a nice looking unit. Styling is somewhat minimalist but very effective. The tablet part, once detached, has a nice weight, and no buttons or switches are located in awkward or intrusive positions.

New AVCAL Chair
15 February 2012
The Australian Private Equity & Venture Capital Association (AVCAL) has appointed Mr David Brown as the new Chair of the governing Council.
Mr Brown, who has been a Member of the Council for the past three and a half years, formally takes over the role at the next Council meeting tomorrow.
AVCAL CEO Dr Katherine Woodthorpe said Mr Brown's long background in funds management and private equity as an investor reflects the diverse range of stakeholders across the industry.
"David's investor background reinforces the fact that AVCAL comprises the full private equity and venture capital community, from investors to private equity practitioners and service providers. David is passionate about private equity as an asset class that delivers strong and reliable returns and is already contributing his strategic insights and knowledge to advocate on behalf of the industry."
Mr Brown replaces industry stalwart Andrew Rothery who has held the chairmanship for the past three years.
"I'd like to express my deep gratitude and appreciation to the out-going Chair Andrew Rothery, who has made a huge contribution to the private equity industry over his time as Chair. Andrew's skills and commitment have been invaluable in guiding AVCAL over that period," Dr Woodthorpe said.
Mr Brown said: "The Private Equity and Venture industry is an important and valuable driver of growth and innovation in the Australian economy.

Many people consider starting college later in life. These students juggle many responsibilities: children, work, and studies, and sometimes there isn't enough money to meet all of their obligations. That is where the American Indian College Fund can help.
Cheyenne River Sioux/Iroquois
When Stephen (Cheyenne River Sioux/Iroquois) speaks, he radiates joy. Stephen, a 2009 Oglala Lakota College graduate and a Coca-Cola First Generation Scholarship recipient with a bachelor's degree in elementary education, says a college education at Oglala Lakota College helped him discover his culture so that he could provide for his family in a way that allows him to walk the path he was meant to walk.
United Keetoowah Band of Cherokee
Tammy, who grew up in Oklahoma, was always a good student but never thought of going to college. "Nobody in my family had even gone to college and I seriously didn't think it was an option for me, because it was not an option for many people around me. Where I come from the idea of college was not real for me, and wasn't until my mother made it real for me."
Lummi and Northern Cheyenne
Like many college students at this time of year, Waylon Ballew (Northern Cheyenne and Lummi) will be graduating (with honors) from college. Yet unlike most of his fellow graduates, Waylon's achievement is not a normal rite of passage in his community. Only slightly more than 13% of American Indian students age 25 or older have a college degree—115% below the national level.

Elma Gardner Farnsworth, 98, Who Helped Husband Develop TV, DiesBreaking News
Her death was reported by Mary Rippley of the Avalon Care Center, where Ms. Farnsworth lived.
The Farnsworths married in 1926, and Ms. Farnsworth worked by her husband's side, then fought for decades to assure his place in history after his death in 1971.
In his book "Philo T. Farnsworth: The Father of Television," Donald G. Godfrey wrote that the first human images transmitted by Mr. Farnsworth were of Ms. Farnsworth and her brother, Cliff Gardner. A 3.5-inch-square image of his wife with her eyes closed was transmitted on Oct. 19, 1929, Mr. Gardner wrote. The book lists her as the "first woman on TV."
But credit for the invention nearly escaped Mr. Farnsworth after RCA declared that the innovation was the work of its chief television engineer, Vladimir Zworykin.
In 1935, the courts ruled on Mr. Farnsworth's patent, naming him television's father. The decision was upheld on appeal, although Mr. Farnsworth continued to get little recognition.
Mr. Farnsworth gave his wife equal credit in his invention, saying, "my wife and I started this TV," according to Mr. Godfrey.

It is nice to see when the woman of a marriage to a scientist is also acknowledged as a co-inventor for her work by her husband.A scientist too along with tireless advocate of her beloved husband shows a remarkable relationship both as co-workers and as a couple. Pleasing all around and something to strive for by us all.

Good 3.9 /5 from 8 reviews
Big Surprise - giant room, big comfortable bed, wonderful bed linens. Breakfast was very nice with menu to order from and waitress at breakfast was very nice and helpful. Wonderful capichino. Our only problem was the air conditioning in the room - we set it to cool, but all it did was heat - finally turned it off and kept the window open. But other than that, quite good - we will stay there again.
My Second time at this hotel, the hotel is way under rated .. Rooms are very clean,comfortable and spacious.. The restaurant let's the hotel down.. Poor choices and limited availability.. But if your into eating out this is a v good choice..
This hotel, was the biggest surprise of my 3 week road trip around Bulgaria... The rooms are more like apartments.. Very spacious, well equipped, I had a 7 foot wide bed, and a very comfortable leather sofa. The hotel was totally spotless.. The staff were superb nothing was to much trouble. I was surprised by ionly having 3 stars, I've stayed in many 4 stared hotels, that are nowhere near as good.. I highly recommend this hotel... Simply fantastic value for money
Is the description of this hotel not correct? Tell us

Objective C - Sencha Touch Bridge
How can I call an Objective C method from Sencha Touch and how can I call a Sencha Touch function from Objective C?
I have a sencha touch application embedded within an iOS webview and I want to be able to communicate between the Sencha Touch code in the webview and the native iOS Objective C code outside of it.
I know that this can be done with plain javascript, but I would like to know how it can be done with Sencha Touch.

Blood glucose regulator
Posted by Reviewer1873151 on Mar 04, 2008
It does an excellent job of regulating blood glucose levels. As a former diabetic, it was very important to keep your fasting blood levels within optimal range. Biotin, along with a sensible diet and exercise did just that. Great product. I urge anyone with type 2 diabetes to try it.
Every one needs this product, do yourself a favor and buy some!
Posted by Reviewer2719360 on Jun 12, 2008
Wow, I love this product. I am sharing the news with all my friends and family. If you have ever had a candida flare up and I'm gussing most of the population has, this product is awesome.
Posted by Reviewer2778415 on Mar 21, 2008
Having had some difficult hair and nail problems, my dermatologist recommended 5mgs of Biotin -- and the benefits have been nothing less than amazing.
Long term use
Posted by Reviewer2617780 on Jan 05, 2008
Using this product for a long time. Biotin in large doses really does strengthen nails and hair. My dermatologist insists I take it. I play classical guitar and must keep my nails strong and long. Can't do without it.
great for growing beautiful hair
Posted by Reviewer2843223 on Nov 09, 2007
i bought this per a reccomendation by a hairstylists' naturopath to take 5mg of biotin a day to grow my hair quicker and more healthy and full, so far so good! it's a water soluble vitamin, so it seems unlikely there would be any chance of any harmful effects from an overdose.
There IS a major difference between different brands..
Posted by Reviewer3040624 on May 30, 2012
At least for me. Good thing I tried the Jarrow brand first. I have had stubby brittle thin nails all of my life. but at 70 years old they were finally growing long and strong. HOWEVER, when I ran out of the Jarrow Biotin I bought a different brand. Here is the difference which I found out later: Jarrow is 'd-Biotin' and the other brand is just 'Biotin.' Now with Jarrow they are back to growing beautifully again. Hope this helps. Lori

D-biotin in the ONLY one that has functions in the human body. So this product is great!

Hi suesuekp. Welcome to the forum.
My $.02:
Competing with her for our husband's time and attention has not worked for you. The competition continues to end in a tie. Time to try something else. Since fighting each other has failed repeatedly, why not try working together?
It looks to me like the three of you are already locked in a V, like it or not. You've already tried to just terminate the relationships and haven't been able to, so it seems like the next step is to find out how to make it work.
Each of you individually needs to take the time to figure out what your authentic needs and desires are, and what obstacles are really standing in the way. This will take however long it takes and will involve a lot of work on yourselves. Professional assistance is often helpful. The three of you together need to understand the needs and desires of the others and come to an agreement to see that everyone's needs are met. Yes, even
, if you want her to join the effort to see that
needs are met.
Easier said than done, I know. But easier done than you might think, and certainly easier than continuing to torture yourselves and one another.
Good luck to you all on the journey ahead.

Really need some help with this code i found online to check to see if a page exists. i am kind of new to Javascript and to have this working would really help me out!
Here is the code :
It seems to be failing on the .status line and it returns an Unspecified Error in the debugger.Code:<script language="javascript"> var url = "http://www.google.com"; checkUrl(url); function checkUrl(url) { var request = false; if (window.XMLHttpRequest) { request = new XMLHttpRequest; } else if (window.ActiveXObject) { request = new ActiveXObject("Microsoft.XMLHttp"); } if (request) { request.open('GET', url, true); if (request.status == 200) { //FAILING ON THIS LINE ("Unspecified Error") alert ("File does exist"); } } alert("File does not exist"); }</script>
I am using IE9 if that makes any difference. I have also tried amending the IF statement to include the readyState == 4, i dont get the error, but it doesn't work as planned.
Really appreciate any help.

Verified Purchase(What is this?)
This review is from: Tefal Fresh Express (Kitchen & Home)
One of the things that we like to eat is a finely cut mixture of salad items such as lettuce,carrots,cucumber, feta cheese, etc. This is normally done by using a traditional triangle shaped shredder and a knife. I read many reviews and decided to ignore the bad ones about this product. How wrong can you be??
This product is useless for this task and in my opinion (as a retired engineer) a poor design. The only blades that work is the largest slicer, but I wanted strips and larger shredded items. It mostly turns out a mush and particles of food get jammed between the 'shredders' and their casing. We tried everything and read the badly written 'instructions'(In a multitude of languages) many times. This is O.K. if you want 'sludge or mush' but useless and very limited for grating. Its back to the hand grater for us. If anyone wants this at half price just get in contact (I still have its original box!)

J. M. Joseph says:
I agree, a totally rubbish product. Half the food gets jammed. I would really like to see the how other people find it delightful. Everything we have used so far in it is getting jammed. Last night I was left scraping left over cheese from the casing. I have just called Tefal Customer Service to tell them it is an inferior product. They advised that I return it where it was bought Argos. Somehow, I don't think Argos will take it back. Might give it a try as I still have the box. It was only bought in December.

Like Jake0748 said
I see you listed this as FUNNY and ENTERTAINMENT, neither of which properly describe the terrible thing you just posted. This is basically a Jeff Dunham level joke. "HEY, Arabs are goofy bumbling fools- they talk funny." Why the hell would you want to perpetuate bullshit like that? Jokes at the expense of a community are not funny.
Dumb and insulting on too many levels. Damn, if jokes that border white trash racist become a staple on this generally awesome site I will be upset and sad.
Someone's outraged on the interwebs! Call the internet police!
If people stop laughing at dumb jokes about other accents, I will be upset and sad.
Apathy towards racism is also really funny.
Just kidding, it's actually really harmful.
Go pahk yaw cahr in Havard Yahd.
No! you don't understand, they won't stop, they don't feel.. they are outrage-for-the-sake-of-outrage machines!
I really hope this is a reference to terminator. If so, well played, bro.
Question: If myself and my friends were to take turns attempting to imitate Irish accents (which, by chance, we did last night, to great comedic effect), would it be racist?
What about laughing about Canadian accents, or Texan ones? How about Alabaman accents?
It'd be racist if I made a joke implying that Europeans were inherently superior to Arabs. Think "All Arabs are terrorists". This isn't a sweeping statement that all Arabs have silly accents. It's a joke about how thick Arabic accents sound silly.
Tell me, this is at the expense of which community? The non-native English-speaker community?
Yeah and baconorbeercan.com is putting the rastaman down, right? Rage is a useful thing – if you know when to engage it.
So far, you are the only person in this thread to think this:
"HEY, Arabs are goofy bumbling fools- they talk funny."
You are kidding yourself if you think the humor of this is void of negativity towards the Arab community. I guess unaware of context and sensitivity as well.
The inclusion of a sexually transmitted disease in this is a reference to the rumor that Yassir Arafat died of a sexual transmitted disease. It's purpose is demeaning in nature.
He's is also a beloved figure. If people openly mocked Malcolm X or Martin Luther King Jr. it would be at the very least distasteful and at most racist.
As for the Rastafarian "joke" its insensitive bullshit. Their religion preaches avoidance of alcohol, why pair the two?
So where the hell is the humor in this if not in the fact that his style of speech and dress are different?
the intertubez iz srzbzns d00D. i am weeth j00.
not really. just learn to laugh.
He's is also a beloved figure.
Ah yes, dearly beloved Yassar who, in order to always be on the Forbes 500 list of world's richest men, stole the food right out of the Palestinian children's mouths. Under his regime maybe about 10 cents on the dollar wasn't outright embezzled and spent on things like luxury villas in Tunisia and (my favourite), the world's greatest collection of French Impressionistic art. To add to his posthumous belovedness he didn't bother to make a will so, under the laws of France where the bulk of the loot was, every nickel went to his hot, blonde wife – ew-la-la!
you gotta love em …Mondegreens are my life …. dyslexic hearing?
Her peas.
Please don't mistake my frustration at a silly humorless image for rage.
Come on man… humor, sarcasm, irony, wordplay… don't you understand that this is how we thinking people deal with all the world-bullshit?
If you don't laugh, then you have to cry.
That is definitely true. I can agree with you on that man.
did you know that these lovely people, our hosts, have emedded a few nifty keyboard commands into the front page. j and k. they advance (or go back) between the articles on the front page.
so you can easily scroll past something that doesn't strike you as wonderful. Can't you?
1, 2, 3, 4. That's 4 posts I count. Seems like rage to me.
Go on, rant some more. You might be able to sway one of us… eventually. But seriously, stop making mountains out of molehills bud. This is funny because two extremely disparate English words sound similar when pronounced by particular world accents. There is nothing more to it than that, and if you see something deeper it is more of an indication of your paranoia/issues than anything else.
If this really is some subversive political commentary, why did its creators go for Rastas, then Palestinian leaders? That doesn't seem like a very consistent attack plan to me.
1. Attack Rastas
2. Attack Arafat
3. ??????
4. Profit
Why everyone attack mah shitty wall?
As for myself, I'm sick of crying.
From a UK perspective at least, would the US equivalent be "Terrorist or Tourist?" or perhaps "Whore or Horror?"
Because if it relates to race, it therefore equals racism. Yawn.
This joke also appeared in an episode of "Sanford and Son", I believe with a foreigner (Arab?) mispronouncing "hairpiece" so it sounded like "herpes."
Team Herpes.
Wait. That came out wrong…
Coming soon, I hope: "Salsa" or "Seltzer."
Why is it that every time someone makes fun of arabs a flame starts? Im arabic and although I have great respect for arafat (the guy in the picture), he does not represent me or the arabs in the other 26 countries. Dont we also make fun of others?
And one more thing, americans you sound like rubber bands when you pronounce ing. Dont believe me? Record yourself saying ping a few times and listen to it.
Good point. but does that make you, "glue".
(I'm rubber, you're glue, whatever you say bounces off me and sticks to you) – a refrain taught to kids to ward off the effects of teasing.
THAT's racism!!
I LOVE to racism, Bro!!
He doesn't look like Ringo at all.
Does anyone remember the photo of him holding up the plastic lawn chair? There was a piece somewhere, a photo essay about plastic lawn chairs, and one of the photos was him holding it up with a pained expression on his face, as if to say, "they bombed my chair!"

Subject: Breaking Our Blackwater Addiction
The more we hear about the deadly Sept. 16 shootout in Baghdad involving contractors from the private military firm Blackwater USA, the worse it sounds. Despite investigations by the Iraqi government, the FBI and your department and last week's House hearings, we may never fully know what happened in the chaos that hospital records show left at least 14 Iraqis dead and 18 wounded. (The contractors claim that they were fired on first, while Iraqi witnesses and officials say that the Blackwater guards opened fire on a small car, carrying a couple and their child, that wouldn't get out of the way in a busy traffic circle.) But by now, we do know a great deal about the business of relying on hired guns -- more than enough to convince you that the Pentagon and State Department urgently need to change their ways.
By your own department's count, more than 160,000 for-hire personnel are working in Iraq today, which, amazingly, is greater than the number of uniformed military personnel there. These private forces perform all sorts of key functions, such as moving fuel, ammunition and food, as well as protecting top U.S. officials and guarding bases and convoys. Handing those tasks over to U.S. troops would further overstretch a military that you've warned is already dangerously overstretched. Hence the allure of outsourcing the jobs to private firms. But while we can't go to war without 'em, we also can't win with 'em. Our military outsourcing has become an addiction, and we're headed straight for a crash.
We've done poorly at a cold cost-benefit analysis here. It's far from clear that contractors save us money; when pressed on this score by the House last week, Blackwater Chairman Erik Prince went from claiming cost savings to pleading ignorance of his own firm's profits. (He did, however, let slip that he makes at least $800,000 per year more than you do, for overseeing a force that's a tiny fraction of the size.) Oversight has been miserably lacking, as has the will to use civilian or military law to hold contractors accountable for bloody messes such as the Baghdad shootings. On balance, for all the important jobs that contractors are doing, Blackwater and its kin have harmed, rather than helped, our troops' counterinsurgency efforts.
* * *
In Iraq, the clear pattern shows that military outsourcing:
¿ Lets policymakers dodge tough, politically costly decisions, which makes for bad operational choices. Since the end of the Vietnam War, the United States has sought to ensure that there's a link between the public and the costs of war, so that good decisions would be made and an ethos of responsibility fostered. With about half our operation in Iraq in private hands, that link has been jeopardized.

Try this Chicken n Broccoli-Topped Orzo recipe, or contribute your own.
36 people want to try | 32 have favorited
Cook pasta according to package directions. In a 10-inch skillet or wok heat oil over high heat; add garlic and saute for 1 minute. Add chicken and cook, stirring quickly and frequently, until chicken is no longer pink, about 5 minutes. Add broccoli, broth, salt, and pepper and let cook until chicken is tender and mixture is heated through, 3 to 5 minutes. Serve over hot orzo and sprinkle with Parmesan cheese. Recipe by: Weight Watchers Quick and Easy
Nicky35747 5y agoThis really was excellent. And, to make it even better, I had all the ingredients except the parmesan on hand. So, I substituted provolone, and it was still top-notch.
boeingbrat 6y agoreally liked it. tho didn't use as much orzo. but everyone enjoyed it... didn't even mind eating the leftovers...lol
callie673456 6y agoMy family and I loved this dish. I had used the orzo in deserts in the past and found this recipe to try orzo as a dinner side dish. Simple ingredients and simple to make, with a nice presentation at the end. Thank Yo for this recipe. We will be making this again soon!!
marinap 6y agoThis was very good! Very light and was enjoyed by my entire family. I did have to add a bit more salt (I prefer "Cavender's" Greek Seasoning) which completed the flavor. Also, I do believe there is a error in the ingredient list...the 1 1/2 OUNCES of Orzo I believe is supposed to state 1 1/2 CUPS of Orzo...oops!

The product itself is fine but
a) the traffic software needs updating every week or it just does not work
b) more importantly I never got any help from Tom Tom - their support is non existant
c) any additional features are prohibitivly expensive
So unless you want a basic unit with no additional features and you never try & get any support from Tom tom nor are likely to concider upgrades (like a new map for eaxmple) I would shop elsewhere. Sorry!
