high and sometimes it is not, and there are things to look for to give you clues about whether or not you are in serious
danger. The Restraining Order (which is what I suppose you mean by "steps through the Prosecuting Attorney" may be
helpful or it may be a red flag in front of a raging bull. You need some ways to assess which one it likely is.
And then of course all the common sense stuff needs to be done; dogs, alarms, changed traffic patterns, change where you sleep if possible, you can guess at it all.
Good luck.

I'll bet there are more victums of crime than there are hurricane and tornado victums in the U.S.
BTW,,,,don't come crying to me while you are waiting for the police to show up and the bad guys are_______________ (pick your crime)
02R1,,,,just understand that there are people who feel better about themselves to belittle others and then they feel superior. When it is all said and done, you will be alive and they may be in a pool of blood and pee.
The likely-hood of ever needing a gun to defend yourself is probably about as likely as getting hit by lightning. But I subscribe to the "better to have it and not need it" philosophy.
You won't ever convince the masses that carrying a gun is a good idea, stop trying. Use that energy for something useful, like shooting 100 rounds at the range!
No coworker should know you carry, probably not most friends.
I currently live in a so-so neighborhood, but I came from a hood where crack was sold next door, and Meth behind me. You heard people screaming and shouting at each other all the time and into the night. I was afraid to let my girls go outside and play after dark because you never knew what might happen. So when I carry a gun around my house and with me wherever legal, because I want to be prepared, I don't worry about what everyone else thinks. I know I will be able to protect "me & mine" if ever or whenever the situation arises.
"Gun control is like trying to reduce drunk driving by making it tougher for sober people to own cars." - Unknown
I'll steal a line I read on another thread in this forum:
Q: "do you carry a gun with you all the time? Even when you sleep?"
A: (rhetorical) "How many times have you had sex this week?"
Real answer to both questions: None of your damn business.
Could also be looked at from the point that if your close enough to a person to discuss your intimate affairs then you may be close enough to discuss your carry habits. Neither should be discussed lightly with mere acquaintances.
I live in a good neighborhood, it's the visitors that I'm concerned with...
"Death is lighter than a feather, but Duty is heavier than a mountain" Robert Jordan

I'm guessing the people attending that college in California or the i-hop in Nevada weren't feeling paranoid that morning either.
I always carry when I'm out and about, and I have a Beretta PX4 .45 with a tactical light on it in the nightstand. We live in a very upscale mountain town that I feel very safe in, but "crazy" can happen anywhere at any time.
It all looks like paranoia until the criticizer becomes the victim I figure...

Officially, The Auditors are in charge of the universe : they see that atoms spin, that gravity works and that things move in curves. However, they hate life - too many irregularities - and have tried several times to deal with those pesky humans. In "Thief of Time", they're at it again - only, this time, they're being a little more devious about it. Normally Death - wears black, bony knees, big grin, carries a scythe - would do what he could to thwart them. However, due to an impending Apocalypse, he has to gather his fellow Horsemen - Famine, War and Pestilence - for the traditional ride. (There's also the matter of the mysterious fifth Horseman of the Apocalypse, who left before they became famous). As a result, Death persuades his grand-daughter Susan into helping out with the fight against the Auditors. Susan is now a teacher in Ankh-Morpork, so she's used to fighting for her life on a daily basis. Thankfully, for this battle she has Death of Rats and Quoth the Raven to help her out.
The Order of Wen and is based at the Monastery of Oi Dong in the High Ramtops. It is known by several aliases - including the History Monks. It's up to them to see that history follows the right track (it doesn't just happen, after all), and when history breaks it's the Order's job to fix it. Their job is made easier by their ability to move and store time, largely thanks to their "procrastinators". Lu-Tze is one of the Order's most notable members.Read more ›
The good news is that "Thief of Time" is a triumphant return to form. The plot runs like clockwork. The wit, simultaneously affectionate and bitingly ironic, is delivered with beautiful timing. The lead characters are gently heroic, and the villains chilling, even as they are comic. The tragi-comedy runs particularly deep with Lady LeJean, the poignancy of whose inner turmoil (and I don't want to spoil things for anyone who still has the book to look forward to) has been tackled with special warmth and compassion. She ranks as one of the finest creations in Pratchett's entire body of work.Read more ›
HarperCollins should thank their lucky stars that their
company seems to have the lock on Terry Pratchett releases in the
U.S. Depending on what you allow as a "Discworld" book,
Pratchett has turned out twenty-five to thirty volumes. And they
all sell like ice cream in Hell on Lucifer's day off.
He has sold more words than any living British author (and
he's closing in on the dead ones). His books never fail to make
England's best sellers lists. Maybe his readers love him because
he sends us _all_ up. No stereotype of fantasy, science,
religion, philosophy, geography, or even death is safe from a
hilariously askew viewing.
The Monks of Time, for instance, can speed Time, slow Time,
pump Time from historical station to station, as needed. Once,
long ago, they had to repair the entire universe when a
(predictably) mad scientist built the almost-perfect clock. If
it had kept ticking, everything else dependent on Time would have
stopped. The damage was awful then, but a much more talented
someone is tampering again. Hired by the spectral accountants
from the Outside, who hate the chaos of life, he is too sane, but
too singleminded, not to succeed. Only a ancient, little sweeper
and a strange boy recruited on the streets of Ankh-Morpork have a
chance to stop him. (Rule One: "Do not act incautiously when
encountering a little bald wrinkly smiling man.") Of course,
there's Death's granddaughter, Susan, the perfect teacher.
Students love her and never give her trouble.Read more ›

Product Description
From Publishers Weekly
Peterson (Sauces and Splendid Soups) has compiled a comprehensive, deftly organized guide to the preparation of seafood. The volume's four easily cross-referenced parts begin with cooking techniques and recipes in "Finfish" and "Shellfish." "Seafood in Other Guises" contains recipes for salads, soups, stews and such dishes as Ricotta and Sage Agnolini in Tomato Shrimp Broth and Salmon and Smoked Salmon Mousse Napoleons. "Finfish Dictionary" includes tips for identifying and cooking more than 200 species. The impressive range of Peterson's 150-plus recipes moves from the simple (Baked Mackerel with Mustard and Bread Crumbs) to the more challenging (Curry-Flavored Monkfish Croquettes with Pear Chutney) and includes the unusual (Arctic Char Baked in Salt; Indian-Style Sweet-and-Hot Seafood Chowder with Coconut Milk). Sidebars and boxes include tips for such things as taking the meat from lobster shells and buying scallops or seasoned vinegar for sushi. Charts for traditional ethnic dishes offer at-a-glance guides to ingredients, flavors, enrichers and garnishes. Peterson's authoritative, informal prose style blends well with the book's organization to make this volume a reference sure to please amateur and professional cooks. Also included are a glossary, source list and color photos. Homestyle Book Club selection; author tour.
Copyright 1996 Reed Business Information, Inc.
From Booklist
There is an incredible amount of information presented here, in headnotes preceding each of the more than 150 recipes, in the sidebars, and in the step-by-step photographs. The dishes represent innovative approaches to old and new cuisines; information on necessary equipment and notes from Peterson's own experience round out this outstanding cookbook.

There are coloured photos that show each step clearly for more popular shellfish such as crab and lobster. There are also the same high quality step-by-step photos that show how to filet different types of fish. In addition, there are coloured photos in the recipes themselves where needed.
Each recipe is easy to follow and the results are very tasty.
As with all James Peterson books, this is meant for someone who has a few minutes to read and understand the techniques rather than the rush-home-and-cook-by-numbers crowd. I would recommend this for those interested in real cooking and intermediate to advanced home cooks.
I actually got this book as a beginner when I first moved into my apartment after university. Each time I made something I felt that I had learnt something new and became a better cook.

Ashley Barquest doesn't want little kids to miss out on the memories of a simple piece of playground equipment, so she's doing everything she can to bring it back.
Barquest likes playing at Garfield Park in Everett, which is located just two blocks from her house and her school.
That changed two Sundays ago when vandals set fire to the equipment, destroying two slides and a rope swing.
With her family's help, Barquest made 80 donation jars and has worked to get them in local businesses and her school. She also set up a non profit and a bank account for the money.
"My goal is to get $10,000," she said.
Barquest said she's working so hard to replace the equipment because she feels bad that other children won't have the same opportunity to create memories at the park that she had.
"I think she's exceptional. I'm super proud of her. We all are," said Ashley's mother, Misty Barquest.
Misty said her daughter's effort to "pay if forward" has produced unexpected rewards.
"She's gotten extremely organized, learning how to start up her own business and all the hoops you have to do to get the job done," she said.
Barquest calls her project Pennies for Garfield Park. She's already handed out 25 jars, but she still needs homes for 55 more.
The Everett City Council could fund a replacement slide during its Wednesday meeting. The equipmen could be put in the park by July 4, and whatever money Barquest raises would help offset the cost.

This must stop: Dog shuts off alarm clock
Even dogs find the sound of a blaring alarm clock irritating as heck.
One pet owner finally learned the reason for a recent run of late wake-up calls — his boxer was hitting the clock radio's snooze button. The owner, in the process of moving, put the clock radio on the floor, inadvertently making it easier for the dog to get at it.

Maquoketa Caves
Looking more like a scene from Costa Rica, the landscape of Maquoketa Caves State Park is one of rugged cliffs, and lush green forest. Containing the most caves of any state park in Iowa, Maquoketa boasts 13 caves along its 6 miles of winding trails. Many caves have tight passages where crawling is a must, while several are large enough for uninhibited walking.
The largest cave of the park, at 1100 feet in length, is Dancehall Cave. A lighting system and concrete path makes this cave one of the most accessible in the park. A steam runs through the cave, and during one of our visits right after a rain, the path was covered in several inches of running water. Dozens of children walked through the silty water to explore the cave, all covered head to toe in mud, as if they were dipped in chocolate.
All the caves are self-guided, and open to the public. Each visitor to the park must stop at the ranger station to hear a bit about white nose syndrome, a fungal disease affecting bats. To keep this fungus from spreading to this cave system, visitors need to wipe their shoes on special mats, and should never wear the same clothes to multiple cave systems.
The caves are spread around the park, so as one hikes through the dense and rocky landscape, they happen upon cave after cave. All are open, but many require one to belly crawl and squeeze into very tight areas. Not being equipped for such an adventure, and because of the storms the night before, we only explored the caves where we could stand or crawl on all fours.

Wedge Rock
A popular feature of Turkey Run State Park's trail #3 is Wedge Rock. This huge chunk of rock separated from the canyon wall long ago, and rested in this position. The rock is shaped like a wedge, and its position allows hikers to walk beneath it as well as on top of it. While it certainly is dangerous to stand on top close to the edge (it's probably a 30 foot drop), the path up to the edge is rather easy to climb. The rock provides a long, ramp-like approach with plenty of twisted tree roots to gain a foothold.
One can only imagine the noise this must have made when it fell, and it probably shook the ground for a long distance around. As you hike in places like this, it makes you wonder when the next huge chunk of rock will fall.
These winding canyons amaze visitors in all seasons, but the late spring and summer months provide some benefits. The canyons are much cooler than the temperature elsewhere in the park - sometimes 20 degrees cooler, providing welcome relief from the summer heat. The trees are fully developed and shade the canyons, and filter the sunlight through their green leaves. The filtered light bathes the canyons in a wonderful green light, especially in full sun.
An interesting park to visit anytime of the year, Turkey Run State Park really comes to life in the Spring and Summer.

Keeping Dry
One of the appealing things about Turkey Run State Park is the opportunity to hike directly on the canyon floor where at times the stream is the only trail. In parts of trail 3, the canyon narrows to only four or five feet wide, and hikers walk directly in the stream. There is one way around, and it consists of some steps carved into the canyon wall.
At first these steps appear wide enough for a comfortable climb, but at the top, they narrow to the point where only one foot can fit onto a step. People with wide shoulders or large backpacks may find it difficult to walk in this area without turning their shoulders almost 90 degrees. While not too high up, a fall from this 10 foot high walkway would certainly cause injury. Some hikers choose to get their feet wet to avoid the potential danger.
The canyon changes from four feet wide to 30 as you hike along this portion of trail 3. Eventually, it opens up to an expansive area at the base of a gentle waterfall.

The Ladders
Continuing along Trail 3 at Turkey Run State Park, the level of the canyon changes dramatically, forcing hikers to climb to the next level. Ladders were installed to assist with the climb - they're fitting for this rugged trail, as stairs would certainly ruin the experience. The ladders only allow a single person at a time to move to the next level, so small bottlenecks of traffic occur at this point on the trail. The scenery makes the wait enjoyable.
Water runs next to the ladders, as well as underfoot as you approach them. The small waterfalls flow all around you as you ascend.
Once up the ladders, the canyon below comes into view, and what once appeared quite wide and large, seems tight and narrow when viewed in perspective with the surrounding forest.
The first people to explore this area probably didn't notice these canyons as they walked through the forest, until they almost fell into them traveling between ridges.

Lush Green Canyons
When we last visited Turkey Runs State Park, it was winter. The canyons and trails were beautiful back then, and we noticed plenty of thick moss on the forest floor. I wondered how it might look in the summertime - the trees must fill out so thick they almost completely block the sun.
On this visit, we were treated with a remarkable green light from the canopy. The trails were lined with huge trees, providing lots of shade on the forest floor. The most spectacular thing was how the trees covered the canyons, and the green light they provided in contrast to the dark rock. Standing on the floor of the canyon looking up at the lush green was remarkable - especially when the sun was strong.
It's amazing how the vast forest above dwarfs visitors as they walk through the deep, damp gorge; people seem as small as insects.
Every turn in the trail brings new things to see and experience. The anticipation of what lies ahead drives you to walk further and further, not wanting to wait to compose the perfect photograph. It's always a great idea to soak in the surroundings no matter how much of a hurry you're in - just stop, look around, listen, and try to experience everything nature has to offer.

The Ice Box
Our morning hike began on trail 3, one of the more rugged trails of Turkey Run State Park. On previous visits, we exited the trail at the Ice Box, but this time we decided to begin at the Ice Box. Taking the trail in reverse would give us a different perspective of the trail.
The warm weather allowed us to hike to the bank of Sugar Creek on our way to the canyons. Dozens of canoes and kayaks floated by in the few minutes we explored the bank. Swallows swooped down near us as we walked beneath their mud nests clinging to the underside of the canyon walls.
From the creek, we hiked up the steep bank toward the Ice Box. Immediately we noticed the dramatic drop in temperature, almost as if we were entering a cave system. Only a bit of water flowed from the canyon above, dripping on the logs and rocks below, but enough to get the camera gear wet if we weren't paying attention.
Eager to press on to see the rest of the canyons and waterfalls, we climbed out of the Ice Box. Large, exposed tree roots clung to the rugged canyon walls, creating a makeshift set of stairs for us to use. Because we were taking the trail in reverse this time, climbing up this "staircase" was easier but more dramatic than heading down.

Beneath the Narrows
A hot spring day was perfect for paddling on Sugar Creek. Hundreds of people took to canoes and kayaks, as well as rafts and innertubes, and floated liesurely down the creek, through Turkey Run State Park in rural Parke County, Indiana. A picturesque park located about 40 miles due west of Indianapolis, visitors can float and paddle on the creek, or hike the rugged trails that wind through the canyons.
This spot called the Narrows, is a narrow portion of Sugar Creek, where a covered bridge was built back in 1883. At 137 feet long, the wooden structure is now closed to traffic, but open to pedestrians. Only $3,400 to build, the bridge uses the Burr Arch truss construction, typical of the covered bridges in Parke County.
One of over 30 covered bridges in the county, this bridge is on the border of Turkey Run State Park, and can be crossed by taking trail 1 or 2 from the visitor center. It can also be viewed by driving north along Narrows Road from Indiana 47, just east of the park entrance.

Fishing Hole
Two boys enjoy the colors of spring as they fish in their favorite spot on this small lake in Illinois. The yellow flowers were only around for a few short days, they've since turned as green as the tall grass surrounding them.
It's a shame more of the plants in Illinois don't retain their color for most of the summer, but so many plants flower at different times, there's almost always something in bloom during the warm months.

Spring Meadow
With warm temperature come spring flowers, and this meadow was no exception. Yellow wildflowers carpet the ground, surrounded by tall grasses and thistle, providing a contrast to the blue skies and plentiful clouds.
This meadow is surrounded by homes and businesses, but it's large enough to provide an escape from the everyday noises and sights. Walk a few minutes into this field, and one can no longer hear cars and trucks on nearby streets, only birds, insects, and the grasses blowing in the breeze.
While I prefer to get far away from urban areas to enjoy nature, I often find small spots like this in the middle of cities are a great alternative if time doesn't allow travel. Some parks and meadows are only a five minute walk from home or work, and they provide the perfect break from the daily grind.

Silver Lake
The final leg of our trip was the hike to Silver Lake from Lake Michigan. As we approached, we were on top of a tall dune, so at first, we could not see the lake, but as we walked closer to the living edge of the dune, the lake appeared below. I would estimate we were at least 75 feet above the lake, but in photos, the distance isn't as obvious until you study the entire image.
The sands of the dunes constantly blow into Silver Lake, in essence, moving the dune grain by grain away from Lake Michigan, and into Silver Lake. The shore of the lake must change constantly.
The depth of Silver Lake is around 20 feet, and the sand of the moving dunes can be seen for quite a bit of depth, yet it appears to drop off very quickly. I haven't been in this lake, so I'm not certain if it does indeed drop, or if the optical qualities of the water simply end at a certain point and the bottom cannot be seen.
Homes across the lake give an idea of the height of the dune, they're quite a bit below us. The home closest to the dune appears to have a bit of maintenance necessary to keep the garage from being buried by the sand. In some spots, the sand is about 3-4 feet up the garage wall. An interesting back yard to say the least.
We back tracked a bit to avoid walking on private property to return to the trailhead. This brought us back into the dunes about a hundred meters or so, and over to the area where the dunes are actively burying the forest. Soon, these trees will die as they become part of the dunes of Silver Lake State Park - only to be revealed in a few hundred years.

Lines in the Sand
On our hike from Lake Michigan, we encountered plenty of interesting things on the Silver Lake dunes. We began our hike in early morning, after a snowfall which covered areas of the dune landscape. Even with the cold weather, as the day drew on, some of the snow melted, and in some areas, the melted snow left moist spots on the dunes.
These moist areas followed the contours of the low areas of the dunes, creating striking patterns meandering the landscape. They changed rather quickly as the moisture absorbed into the sand, and then evaporated in the bright sun.
Broken only by the occasional leafless tree, the patterns seemed to stretch forever in some places, painting the otherwise mundane surface with interesting patterns.
Over time, trees are buried by the shifting sands, and they die in place. Many decades later, the sands move on and the trees are uncovered, these remnants are scattered around the dunes like driftwood cairns marking the way.

Once past the stand of conifers, we paused to contemplate our route from Lake Michigan, through the barren dunes to Silver Lake. We also paused to take in the landscape, and realize just how large of an area was in front of us. The image above is a panoramic image stitched together from five individual photographs. It gives an idea of just how vast the area is, and how far away the edge of the dune was. The trees in the woods toward the right of the image, are not shrubs, they are full grown pine trees.
I always find a bit of time to stop in such a remote area and take in the surroundings; look and listen for several minutes just to experience nature. Most of the time, I'm hiking quickly to get from point A to point B, and while I experience and admire my surroundings, it's not the same as stopping and immersing yourself in it.
We found a path of dune ridges that would take us through the woods and toward the most barren portion of the dunes in sight. Traveling from beach, to grassy dune, to conifer stand, and wetland, we experienced almost every micro environment Silver Lake State Park had to offer. Ahead lay the desert-like expanse of sand dunes that, in our minds, conjured images of the Great Sahara.

Hiking the Ridge to Lake Michigan
As we drew closer to Lake Michigan, we planned out a route following the narrow ridges of the dunes. The ridge meandered through and above forests and ponds, prairie and sand all the way to Lake Michigan. From this perspective, we could see how stands of trees took root in only certain dune valleys, while just across the dune, nothing took hold.
Some of the different environments were clearly evident from the ridge. Vast areas of sand, grassy prairie and conifer stands were just some of the areas we encountered on this hike. Closer to the lake, the ridge as high enough to see over the adjacent conifer forest. Distant dunes along the Lake Michigan shore appeared like distant mountain ranges due to their sand, forest, and snow patches.
Following a hike of over two hours, we reached Lake Michigan and the Silver Lake State Park foredunes along the shore. Blowouts and ponds dotted the landscape, as we followed the shoreline south for about a half mile. Not a single person was visible from this point, probably kept away by the 30 degree temperature and 30 mile per hour winds.
We pushed south, looking for another dune ridge we spotted in the distance on our trek to the lake. This ridge cut through a large conifer stand, and lead to a huge, open area of sand, and the living dunes which spill into Silver Lake. Our hike was half over.

Ghosts of the Dunes
Hiking the vast Silver Lake State Park dunes, we encountered so many interesting things, and ghost trees were among them. Located about half way through our journey to Lake Michigan, the remains of a small stand of trees came into view. Probably buried in sand hundreds of years ago, they've been uncovered again by the same force that buried them.
Upon close investigation, the remains are filled with interesting texture, probably created by insects, animals, and the fact they were underground for so long. One of the taller ghost trees served multiple purposes for us during our hike. It was like a sign post, or milemarker, since we could see it from a long distance away. And when Chris climbed up, he managed to get a great view of what was ahead for us.
The expanse of dunes was unlike any we've visited along the shores of Lake Michigan. To give an idea of the size of the place, the photo above shows two hikers in the distance. At the center of the image, on the horizon, is a small dot. This dot is actually two hikers, and the photo below shows them up close. In this image, we were almost half way to Lake Michigan, looking back to the trailhead and parking area. These hikers are about half way between us and the parking area.
Certainly a great place to hike in a dune landscape.

From the Dune Ridge
Looking a bit like a miniature view of the western United States, the view from the dune ridge was quite different than the surrounding areas. That was the theme of this day's hike, take a few steps in any direction, and the environment changed. While the majority of the dunes at Silver Lake State Park were vast and barren, there were countless areas where the vegetation differed dramatically from any we've encountered previously on the hike.
Steps out of the conifer stand on our way up the dune ridge, we found ourselves in what appeared to be the dry western US. Low growing evergreens and old trees dotted the dune landscape. Somewhat of another micro environment, where certain plants take hold due to conditions just right for them. A few meters over the ridge, and the conditions no longer suit the needs of the plant, and it doesn't survive.
Once to the top of the ridge, we could look down at one of the interdunal ponds we passed on our hike. Water from rain and snow filters its way through the surrounding dunes and collects here in these low areas between dunes. Most ponds harbor plenty of life including grasses, trees, and shrubs, providing places for small animals to live and hunt. We encountered signs of deer and plenty of water birds on this cold morning.
The top of the dune offered great views of the pond below and the surrounding area. We paused to take in the view, and to plan the next part of the hike. We also took note of a distant dune ridge that appeared to pass right through another conifer stand - that would be our target for our return trip after we reached Lake Michigan.

Peaceful Pond
A half mile or so into our hike across the barren dunes of Silver Lake State Park, we encountered one of many stands of conifers. Situated in a dune valley, the stand was an island of green surrounded by empty sand- an oasis. Dense stands of Jack pine and grasses made our hike a little more difficult, a stark contrast to the rolling sand dunes just a few yards away.
These valleys harbor water and vegetation, creating micro environments within the park. We came upon several interdunal ponds (ponds between dunes) with clear evidence of deer and other wildlife. A sleeping area for deer was the perfect spot for a view of the pond, which was greening up from a long winter.
Seen from a dune ridge, the conifer stand and interdunal ponds appear as an island within the vast expanse of the dunes.One encounters so many different types of environments on a hike here. The landscape often appears so different than Michigan.
We were almost half way from the trail head to Lake Michigan at this point, with much more to see.

Hiking Silver Lake State Park
Our hike began at Silver Lake with a view of the expansive dunes between us and Lake Michigan. The dunes make a beautiful backdrop to Silver Lake, and Lake Michigan is just about a mile over the dunes.
We climbed up the first living dune and found plenty of dead trees - buried by the shifting sands as they move inland driven by winds. We were amazed at the size of this place, nothing but rolling sand dune for miles left and right, and at least a mile in front of us. Dotting the dunes were small interdunal ponds and areas of conifer forest, just waiting for exploration.
One could barely see Lake Michigan on the horizon from out vantage point, but it appeared every so often as we climbed the taller dunes. We spent hours exploring the small ponds and forested areas on our way to the lake.
Here, we were almost half way to Lake Michigan. Just after exploring a frozen pond, we looked back to see how far we walked. Silver Lake was beyond the farthest dune, and most features we encountered were now tiny dots on the landscape.

I've set up SSL capability on my WordPress admin pages, and it works, but after about two minutes of being logged in over https I click onto another part of the admin pages and run into 'The connection was reset while the page was loading' (in Firefox).
I'm able to browse the non-ssl parts of the site, and I can access the https parts, but only for a short period before the error occurs.
Also, if I visit the non-https front page by typing in the bare domain name, then leave and come back some time later, it then tries to force me to get the front page over https, and gives me the connection reset error.
Clearing 'active login sessions' in firefox and refreshing the page allows me to log back in, but only for another brief period.
The only modifications to the page I have made are the SSL configuration (with 'FORCE_SSL_ADMIN' set to true in wp-config.php), an installation of the CiviCRS plugin, and the wordpress-importer plugin. If it looks like the problem is to do with one of the last two, I'll take my question there, but I think it's to do with WordPress itself, possibly a cookie issue?
Grateful for any help.

striper in the springs

I'm spending the weekend in Springs with my mom. We took off from Washington Heights mid-day yesterday after a morning of clinical research. I'm working with a team at Columbia-NYP on uterine smooth muscle function. In a labor and delivery OR, I processed a sample to be delivered to a basic science lab. This means I divided an arc of tissue from a stranger's uterus, post-cesarean section, into 4 morsels to be further processed/plated/mechanically tested. The delivery felt like a satire of hospital obstetrics. As baby is being surgically delivered there is truly zero sense in the room of the moment's sanctity– nurses are chatting about their weekend plans; an attending pediatrician is grumbling about a new resident; as his son's head starts to push through the incision, dad peeks over the curtain to get a first look at his first-born child, only to be waved back into his seat by the anesthesiologist, "don't worry, we'll show him to you when he's here." I'm the unknown med student in the corner of a room in a bunny suit. Waiting with a tray of instruments and containers to perform my sterile tasks.
I'm tired on the drive from a restless night. As the last drop of wine burned off at 3:30 AM, I shrugged off a druggy sleep. For several hours I was alert in bed with steak and dessert on the brain, sifting, compiling, and repeating component prep lists for the Valentine's Day dinner I'll spend too much time on this Sunday. Now I'm pushing through 495 with Leonard Lopate, slowing on Montauk Highway to Hannibal Burress on The Joe Rogan Experience, loosening to Holy Ghost! as we turn into East Hampton village. Not a lot of conversation as I ready for more time with mom.
It's getting easier in some ways. I'm getting used to shopping, cooking, and eating with her after years of struggle. She rejects most oil, salt, sugar, dairy, grains, legumes. Even though I love veg, fruit, and animal protein, I used to ignore her when cooking for the family. Studding my salads with cheese, drowning sides in evoo, taking generous seasoning pinches to every piece of meat. It didn't feel like a rebellion so much as, "this is real food, mom, take it or leave it." But I'm learning to better harness the powers of dry and aqueous heat in cooking, to rely less on salt, more on alliums and chiles, seeds and herbs, citrus and vinegars. At least when she's around.
She's also the ultimate comparison shopper. I remember Sunday afternoons driving slowly north through Manhattan, from Chinatown to Morningside Heights, double parking half a dozen times along the way for a 10-item shopping list of kitchen basics. I'm talking carrots and bananas, spaghetti and peanut butter. Throw in a few extra stops along the way for Tasti D-Lite samples, her guilty frozen dessert pleasure in a world of blueberries, shredded cabbage, and baked squash.
After years working other people's kitchens, sharing fridge shelves with housemates, shopping for groups, I've also become more systematic and bargain-seeking in my grocery lists, more flexible in the pantries I'll navigate. We found a decent looking bunch of sale-item turnip greens at the local Stop and Shop, saved $4/lb on shipped-in striped bass over the local black bass, and made use of some creminis rescued from our E. Harlem fridge before their inevitable weekend decay.
Unilateral med-high heat on a nonstick until I could slide a spatula between skin and flesh, leaving the skin behind to crisp in it's own fishy fat. Lowered thick coins of the partly-cooked filet into a steaming brown rice stock. Poured over turnip greens seasoned in fish sauce and rice vinegar. Ginger poached mushrooms and turnip root floating in the murky sea broth. (Clarifying egg raft next time?) Finished with grey salt (my portion), aleppo, *drops* of sesame oil, scallion.
This was the best part of my day. This is 2016, the year I'm home from Durham to complete a research year for Duke SoM. The year I realize with every passing week that I still don't know what I want to do with the MD I'm hurtling towards. Feeling my body asking me to jump- to leave it behind and start playing with food and fire again.

i've had some time away from the kitchen over the past couple of months. new jobs, new schedules, and an extended cooking hangover from my last large dinner event. but a combination of devouring gabrielle hamilton's amazing memoir (see negroni in upper right), the delicious branzini i had at market table last night (see… well, it's obvious), and my recently perusal of the long acclaimed ottolenghi cookbook plenty (see bowl of malaysian goodness), inspired me to get back in there tonight and have a family style meal with the sibs.
the most exciting new thing for all of us was the sambal which i adapted from plenty. tangy, spicy, shalloty- i can see this thing going far in lots of applications. i plan to try a lot more chili/tamarind combinations with different kinds of chilis, different oils, different acids and sweeteners. also made a quick dry rub of coriander, star anise, grey salt, black and szechuan pepper for the fish stuffed with fennel fronds, garlic, and lemon- which wasn't bad.
Pineapple Vinegar
May 13, 2012 § Leave a comment
1 quart of water, 1/4 cup of sugar, some star anise, the chopped peel of 1 pineapple, and 1 month of lazing around in my cabinet.
This is my first time making pineapple vinegar – or any vinegar for that matter – and I'm not using a mother so fingers crossed this first experiment works out. I've heard it's really acidic so I'm hoping it will go well with some fat-boy carnitas this summer for a new play on al pastor. Adapted from Sandor Ellix Katz's Wild Fermentation.

Surat an-Nisa, 77 (Hypocrites avoiding the intellectual struggle)
No one can ever be forced to perform prayers or give alms. Everyone is free in his faith. People's ideas should be respected.
Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh) will balance the differences between people.
Some people talk within the lines "But how are we to find the money?" about helping those who are in need. God would bring plenty in folds. The good deeds that will be attained is important, attaining the good pleasure of God is important. If you attain the good pleasure of God, He would give you riches. If you do not act in a way to attain His good pleasure and are stingy instead, God would take away everything you have and you would lose all your goods and possessions.
There is no ambition of ownership in the morality described in the Qur'an. Everything belongs to everyone; brotherhood comes to the forefront. Everyone shares everything they have with their brothers. They will share everything they have, everything they eat, they drink, they wear, everything they own. There will be no such thing as hoarding goods, acting ambitiously, etc. These are all things that they have come up with later on saying, "You are to give one fortieth of the gold you own," etc. There is no such thing. The Qur'an tells us to give whatever is surplus to our actual needs.
It is not befitting of a Muslim to make estimations or calculations when handing out a part of his possessions as charity. A believer gives his possessions without counting and bragging about it.
If you are handing out charity to the poor, why do you care about how much it weighs? You may give or hand out as much as you can afford. You may give as much clothes or food as one can carry. Why are you measuring it in grams or whatnot? It is not befitting of the morals of Islam for one to weigh the goods to be handed out. One should hand them out by handfuls, in abundance.

Product Description
From Amazon
The roots of alcoholism in the life of a brilliant daughter of an upper-class family are explored in this stylistic, literary memoir of drinking by a Massachusetts journalist. Caroline Knapp describes how the distorted world of her well-to-do parents pushed her toward anexoria and then alcoholism. Fittingly, it was literature that saved her: She found inspiration in Pete Hamill's A Drinking Life and sobered up. Her tale is spiced with the characters she's known along the way. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.
From Publishers Weekly
Freelance journalist Knapp began drinking in her early teens and continued unabatedly until she "hit bottom" in 1995 and checked herself into a rehab at the age of 36. During that time she managed to graduate with honors from Brown and have a successful career as a journalist, and few people suspected she had a problem with the bottle. Here she recounts the years of denial that helped her rationalize the blackouts, innumerable hangovers, broken relationships and family tensions characteristic of the alcoholic's story. Knapp interweaves her personal history with factual information about alcohol abuse, including frequent references to the AA meetings she's attended. Here's a confession utterly devoid of self-pity, an extraordinarily lucid and very well-written personal account of a common addiction that is filled with insights as well as a comprehensive treatment of the subject. The text reproduces a questionnaire for alcoholism made up by the National Council on Alcoholism and Drug Dependence. First serial to the New York Times Magazine and Cosmopolitan; Literary Guild selection; author tour.

In A.A., sponsors are always the same sex as the sponsee. I wondered what insight I could get from a female alcoholic. I learned tht this is not an issue. I strongly recommend this book to everyone.
She also points out how common it is for high-functioning people get caught up in the excuses that they deserve a drink.....
I loved CKs story. I could relate to it. I didn't find it inauthentic or self-indulgent. (Similar to the negative reviews of Eat Pray Love haters). It was her way of telling the story of her own personal experience with alcoholism.
Perhaps it is because I too, on the surface perhaps, am a very successful, happy, well-adjusted woman. A successful, happy, well-adjusted woman with a secret. The secret of a lover, a best friend, a confidante, that I call...alcohol.
That being said, I am only just halfway through the book, so my opinion could change towards the end, as apparently several readers have experienced.
But in any case, I am appreciative of a voice which speaks from a unique viewpoint - a viewpoint which is differentiated from the stereotypical 'brown-paper-bag-hitting-rock-bottom-bum'. As we know, alcoholism is a prevalent issue, which far transcends the class barriers, and it is refreshing to hear someone speaking up to that.
She writes beautifully and concisely at times with great insight - especially about women. Also, the last page clarifies sobriety beautifully. Yet if I have a criticism it is that I found the book on a personal level strangely emotionally flat and joyless. And for that reason I found the book, for all its insights, strangely depressing. Perhaps this was deliberate on the author's part - sharing her alcoholism - but not her self as such, which must have been her prerogative. or maybe its an alcoholic thing - you look back and see things that seemed like fun at the time with a rather cold disdainful eye (but what about her childhood? no joy mentioned there either which must surely be utterly bizarre, or just one-sided for the purposes of the book? (I don't know)). So though the book has many, many insights, I found it not as inspiring as I would have hoped or imagined.
Therefore, so as far as recommending this book to someone on the road to the potential joys and self-discovery of sobriety, I find myself ambivalent about recommending it.
All the more so if you've ever wondered if you or someone you know has a drinking problem. Without being preachy, and without drowning in the rhetoric of AA, Knapp's book is full of insights. She's especially good at navigating the tangled family legacy of alcoholism and denial, and describing the life of an alcoholic, where everything ranks a distant second to drinking, and covering your tracks, so you can drink some more.

The Fed is risking a second Depression by putting pressure on banks to raise more capital, analyst Dick Bove writes in a scathing note that accuses the central bank of losing "all sense of reality." Banks must be allowed room to lend money and conduct business but are being handcuffed by onerous capital restrictions, Bove believes.
The Fed is risking a second Depression by putting pressure on banks to raise more capital,...
Comments (19)
American in Paris, contributorComments (5495) | + Follow Following - Unfollow
The central bank has not lost the memory of what caused the crisis.
Banks are neither a charity nor institutions for social work. They are businesses organized to optimize their risk-adjusted return on capital. Unfortunately they haven't done very well at that recently.
Increased capital requirements over time would make them more able to sustain losses, but the requirement is more Basel III rules than Federal Reserve rules. So far only the Swiss are requiring greater capital requirements than Basel III suggests. The big global banks usually argue that they need more leverage, which is what lower capital requirements allows. What the Federal Reserve should do to increase lending is to stop paying interest on excess reserves. If the banks are profitable, then why not increase their capital requirements, until they reach Basel III levels.
The plan here is to reduce the amount of risk taken and increase the capital buffer so that when the next bank-initiated financial crisis comes along, the State can cut them loose instead of bailing them out.
"I personally welcome such a change. Never have so few been paid so much for such irresponsible behavior."
Bove is a fool and a propagandist pimp who will say anything the too-big-to-fail banks tell (or pay) him to say. Like this statement in March 2008 just before Bear Stearns collapsed and six months before the entire banking sector collapsed:
Old banking was simple, buy money from small depositors bundle it up and sell it to borrowers. The keys to success were also simple buy it cheaply and sell it dearly, keep your expenses low and get solid collateral for your loans in case something goes wrong and finally "know your borrower".
New banking has very little of this left. Today fee income drives profitability not "net interest margins". Hedging risk and financial derivatives produce large profits to support million dollar salaries. Lending to small and mid-sized companies requires some training, skill and knowledge. Banks no longer train "lenders" they only train "relationship managers", whatever they are.
The once simple business has become complicated and the many layers of existing government regulations do not lend themselves to institutions keeping expenses low. The answer is not simple because the cow is already out of the barn but it includes going back to basics if anyone can find their way.
First, banks should be required to raise more capital. They have kept excess reserves at the Fed both to sanitize QE and to make risk free profits.
With the higher capital requirements being mandated by Basel III the 40 to one leverage is down to about 10 or 12 to one, where it should be. If the Dodd-Frank regs are actually mandated then the derivatives and such will be included in capital requirements creating all kinds of havoc as they are off balance sheet now. All of these uncertainties have investors wondering where the "future" profitability will land. It's pretty certain it won't be like the good old days.
These banks did some things prior to and during the financial crisis that were not exactly boy scout behavior. As such, they have legal and regulatory risk.
Tom, As usual I agree with some parts of your comment and disagree with other parts. I will only try to comment on your last sentence. At some point, if we are ever going to emerge from this financial quagmire, the banks are going to be front and center to the recovery. It cannot happen without the banks participating. Now, here is the caveat, some banks will not be around to participate. I have some ideas but I do not know which banks will not make it. So, in closing, the reason to invest in specific banks is because you have fully evaluated them and you feel that this bank will be among the winners.
My only advice, if you are interested enough to do some analysis, is avoid the biggest and the smallest banks. Some of each of these will certainly survive but the biggest will come under the greatest political scrutiny and the smallest have the biggest competitive challenges. The middle is the sweet spot and then there is geographic location, management and business model. These will give you top level screens to eliminate many also rans before you get into the meat of your analysis.
