This article in Sydney Morning Herald talks about how Malaysians are (supposedly) finding their food rather unhealthy and looking to improve their diet.
This probably isn't a big shock for Malaysians reading as food is one of their daily little guilty pleasures.
For other readers - let me assure you now - food is a national obsession in Malaysia. Most people spend their time at meals discussing other meals they have had and whether they are better or worse than this one, and what they will be having for their next meal. Food blogs are very popular - it's quite common to see people using a camera phone to snap a photo of their meal.
In fact - my colleagues, if allowed to vote on the company off-site trip, will almost always ask to go to a resort in Langkawi which offers all-inclusive 24/7 room service (so you can call up at 3am and get yet another plate of fried rice and some fried chicken wings). My suggestions (resorts that offer activities such as diving) are somehow seen as rather weird .
When the first Malaysian went up into space, what was the topic of conversation between the Prime Minister and the astronaut (angkasawan)? "How is the food?". One of the official experiments conducted by the ankasawan was "Malaysian Food in Space".
Yet there's little to no awareness or interest in having healthy food. Diet drinks are hard to find (outside central Kuala Lumpur they barely exist). Coffee and tea come with sugar automatically included. Tomato and chilli sauce in Malaysia are chock full of sugar. And if you are lucky enough to work with public sector a lot you'll find that all meetings come with curry puffs or cakes (kuih).
Add to this kind of diet to the fact that most of my Malaysian friends eat 4-5 meals a day (with "supper" being an official meal, along with "morning tea", "high tea" and general grazing that continues throughout the day) and you can see that a high diabetes and heart attack rate is a pretty logical consequence.
Of course, people visiting Malaysia absolutely love the food - even the western food is done very well here. I usually point out to them (with a smile) that this is probably because of the copious addition of fat, sugar, salt and MSG to the food. It's the old French cooking trick - every sauce tastes amazing when then first item in the recipe is 2 pounds of butter. If you're just visiting of course it doesn't matter too much... but perhaps those of us living here should be a bit more careful.
I'll think about it right after I finish the Christmas Turkey tonight (just RM 200 including all the trimmings, great stuffing and gravy.... it's the second one I've had already this month)...

More on flying sukkotJul 17, 2009
One of DovBear's commentators, "Rabbi Noah", has imagined what would happen if all sukkot really were transported to the land of Israel come the Messiah.
Comic gold.
Is the Maccabiah too expensive?Jul 16, 2009
Amir Mizroch, the Jerusalem Post's news editor, makes a convincing case on his blog that it is:
This year's Jewish Olympics, more than in years' past, have become the Rich Jew's Olympics. Even though these games are the biggest to date, so many athletes couldn't afford to come that the very character of the competition is in question. If only rich Jews from rich countries can afford to come to the Maccabiah, what does that say about our solidarity as a people? The world financial crisis has had a huge impact on the capacity of the World Maccabiah to get sponsorship for teams. Many longtime sponsors have remained loyal, but their contributions have decreased. The worsening economic climate has also made it harder for teams and individuals to raise the money needed to travel to the games.
Australia didn't send a junior cricket team and kept two soccer teams at home. South Africa's 2005 gold-medal winning rugby team stayed home, and so did the water polo team. There is a young Canadian swimmer, top of his age group in that sports-mad country, who stayed at home because of lack of funds. The cost for the South African team has almost doubled since the last games. In 2005 the South Africans paid R25, 000 each. Now, as the Rand continues its descent, the price for competing in the games has shot up to
R45, 000, leaving many priced out of the market.
Even in Israel, there are some athletes who chose not to miss several days of work in order to compete, because they know there are 14 unemployed people lining up for every job, and they don't want to irritate their bosses.
To make matters worse, there has been a deluge of complaints about the organization of the games, mostly around the issue of accommodation. Some competitors have already pulled out and gone home, others are staying with relatives, and some others say they won't be coming back to the next Maccabiah. When the cost of coming is so high, sub-standard living conditions add real insult to injury.
Read the whole piece here.
If you can't bear to part from your sukkah.....Jul 16, 2009
DovBear has posted an ad by a North London sukkah company, which promises "a written guarantee that your sukka will go to you to Eretz Yisroel when Moshiach comes."
I phoned the gentleman who owns the company, one Mr Bard, to find out why exactly anyone would want this.
He explained to me that the Gemara says that when Moshiach comes, all shuls will go to Israel. The Kedushas Levi adds that so will all Jewish houses which were filled with Torah. Sukkahs going to Israel as well, however, are Mr Bard's own addition - "if houses that are filled with Torah go, a Sukkah, which is a piece of a mitzvah, must go too."
There's no actual need for a sukkah to be transported to Israel in messianic times (as someone on DovBear's website commented, surely you can buy sukkot in Israel) - "just if you want it to".
Sadly, no one has taken him up on the offer of a written guarantee yet - but "it's a new thing".
There you go.
Evil Zionist chewing gum plotJul 16, 2009
Those devious Mossad agents are at it again - trying to corrupt the Gaza youth:
Hamas suspects that Israeli intelligence services are supplying its Gaza Strip stronghold with chewing gum that boosts the sex drive in order to "corrupt the young," an official said on Tuesday.
"We have discovered two types of stimulants that were introduced into the Gaza Strip from Israeli border crossings," Hamas police spokesman Islam Shahwan told AFP.
"The first type is presented in the form of chewing gum and the second in the form of drops," he said...
The story came to light after a Palestinian man filed a complaint that his daughter had experienced "dubious side effects" after chewing the offending gum, Israeli media reported."
So let's get this clear. Israel is being accused - at the same time - of trying to decimate the Palestinian population, and encouraging them to breed uncontrollably. Well, which is it?
Michael Jackson, the JewJul 13, 2009
Roseanne Barr - possibly not the world's most reliable source - has written a note to Michael Jackson's children:
You are jewish, and your dad really loved jewish people and considered himself one of them. He considered that it didnt matter if a person was black or white, rich or poor, Muslim or christian, but that it DID matter if a person was jewish. Your dad believed that the Jewish People would change the world just by changing themselves. This is a very important jewish concept! Your dad would want you to know these things, he was a student of kabballah. kabballah teaches us that the jews need to change themselves, and to do that, they need to accept that they came from africa, from ethiopia, and not from europe!"
If Michael Jackson considered himself such a Jew, how come he converted to Islam?
Should sheitls be banned?Jul 10, 2009
And while we're on the subject of covering up...
Hadassah Sabo Milner, an Orthodox Brit currently living in Canada, writes about her changing emotions about covering her hair:
When I was first married, years ago, I didn't want to cover my hair, I just did it because it was asked of me. Almost every time I covered it I felt like I was putting shackles on. I never researched it, never wanted to understand the reasons why. I just went along with the flow – shalom bayit, y'know? I know there are a lot of women out there who feel the same way, and yet they plod along because it is expected of them.
At the time that I uncovered my hair, about 10 days after receiving my Get, I did so after a lot of conscious thought and reflection... My Get happened mere weeks after we separated. I was in so much deep pain and suffering and at that time, I needed, for myself, to physically show signs of my grief (other than crying all day long wherever I was – that gets old quickly), to work through the grief and the pain and the anguish and all of that.
It was never about "not married any more so who needs to cover their hair, I am doing what I want". I needed to do it to help heal my spirit. I needed to show myself and the world that I was not the same person I was when I was married.
By the time last year's barmitzvah preparations were in full swing and the barmitzvah boy asked that I wear a sheitel and not a hat to the festivities, I had to do some tremendous soul searching... Standing there, on the day of the barmitzvah, watching my son lain his parshah, my heart swelling with enormous pride and love and gratitude to G-d, I knew I had come full circle. I knew my mourning was very much over. I let go of the past, of the pain, of the anger and bitterness. That day marked my son's barmitzvah but also in some ways my rebirth.
Since that day I have been lucky in finding my soul mate, and in February we celebrated our wedding, and the merging of two lively households. I wore a sheitel to my wedding. I cover my hair now when I leave the house. I am a married lady, and it is what's right for me.
Many religious men take it for granted that their wives will cover their hair, but they have no idea what a difficult mitzvah this is to keep. I struggled for so long with it, and it was only in the absence of keeping this mitzvah that I learned to appreciate the finer points of it. I wish that when I had first got married that there were classes to explain the whys and wherefores of hair covering, to help us come to terms with it. As girls and teenagers, we obsess about our hair, and then all of a sudden we are expected to cover it. It's a lot to have to deal with."
A reminder that in our religion, too, covering one's hair is not always an issue of entirely free choice - there are social and familial pressures at play here too.
So - like the burka - should sheitls be banned?
The difference, I think, is that wearing a burka makes it difficult to interact with others, obscuring a woman's personality and turning her into a faceless entity.
A sheitl may be uncomfortable and unwanted (for some), but it does not obscure a woman's essence. It is not oppressive, nor does it interfere with public order.
In addition, a burka is a political statement to do with radical Islam, not just a religious (and social) symbol like the sheitl.
'The burka gives me bad headaches'Jul 10, 2009
Should the burka be banned?
A debate is raging in France, echoing discussions which have taken place in this country and around Europe in the last few years. Those who think they should be banned - including President Sarkozy - claim that they are a polical statement rather than a religious one, and oppress women.
Others - such as President Obama, in his Cairo speech - think that women's right to wear the burka in public must be protected; the state has no business telling people what to wear and essential freedom is involved.
An interesting insight, therefore, in this Reuters piece about burkas in Afghanistan. Sales have dropped by as much as 50 per cent since the Taliban was toppled in 2001:
In the gardens of the shrine of a revered sufi poet, cousins Margol and Amirejan Abdulzai chatted together as they walked among rose bushes and marble tombstones.
Margol has lifted her burqa over her head for now because she can relax a bit more in the enclosed and quiet space. Amirejan wore a black chador namaz decorated in swirling white flowers.
"When I wear a burqa it gives me a really bad feeling. I don't like to wear it. My family are not really happy with me wearing a chador namaz, they tell me to always wear a burqa. But I don't like it, it upsets me, I can't breathe properly," 18-year-old Amirejan said.
Margol, who is in her early 20s, said that she was used to the burqa now, having worn it since she was about 15. Her family prefers her to wear it and does not approve of her walking the streets with her face on display.
"My family says I have to wear it, they say the chador namaz is bad. You understand that if you don't wear a burqa and your face is open, people will just gossip about you," Margol said, giggling.
"But it does give me bad headaches, it puts a lot of pressure on my head, especially if it's sewn too tightly," she added.
Her cousin Amirejan said she would rather wear a mantau chalvar and discard her chador namaz if it was left up to her.
"Now they say that Afghanistan is free and women should be able to breathe more, but no, your mother, auntie and family still tell you that you have to wear the burqa ... I just don't like it, I like to be free, not under a burqa."
President Obama, please note the common thread - wearing the burka is not the free choice of these women. They are pushed into it by their relatives (including female relatives).
No Gilad Shalit deal until his condition is verifiedJul 10, 2009
The Hamas leader in charge of the Shalit portfolio, Osama al-Muzeini, has said that only a few people in the organisation know whether the Israeli soldier is "wounded, sick or dead", and that even the leadership is in the dark. (Fuller report in Hebrew here.)
Now, it is perfectly possible that this is a negotiation tactic; implying that Shalit may be "wounded, sick or dead" certainly ups the pressure on Israel to conclude a deal quickly.
However, there is a lesson in this for Israel. During the last prisoner exchange, with Hizbollah exactly a year ago, the government was widely criticised within Israel for not knowing whether they were negotiating to receive live soldiers, or bodies. Although kidnapped soldiers Eldad Regev and Ehud Goldwasser were widely assumed to be dead, this was only finally confirmed when their coffins were delivered to the border. Had Israel known this for absolute certain beforehand, it would have surely affected the price they were willing to pay to get them back.
Israel cannot repeat the same mistake with Shalit. It must know exactly what state he is in before they make any promises, whatsoever, to Hamas - they need to know what they are negotiating for.
Giving Ruth Madoff the benefit of the doubtJul 9, 2009
A couple of days ago I wrote about how few people had come to the defence of Ruth Madoff, Bernie's wife. Now, Debra Nussbaum Cohen quotes from Ruth's statement, on The Sisterhood, one of the Forward's blogs:
"From the moment I learned from my husband that he had committed an enormous fraud, I have had two thoughts – first, that so many people who trusted him would be ruined financially and emotionally, and second, that my life with the man I have known for over 50 years was over … Lives have been upended and futures have been taken away. All those touched by this fraud feel betrayed; disbelieving the nightmare they woke to. I am embarrassed and ashamed. Like everyone else, I feel betrayed and confused. The man who committed this horrible fraud is not the man whom I have known for all these years."
I find her claim that she does not know her husband –- her high school sweetheart – intriguing.
Is it, as one friend claimed at a lively shabbat dinner table discussion last week, simply a legal maneuver to distance herself from being further implicated in Bernie's criminal conduct?
But I wonder if we ever truly know even the people with whom we are most intimate. On this question the two married couples at the table were silent. Only the never-married man at the table thought she must have known what was going on. The rest of us, perhaps, knew better.
After all, even among couples in my generation (late-30s to 50s), many times one partner handles the finances and the other says that she (usually it's the wife) leaves it in her husband's hands.
All the more so for couples of the Madoffs' generation. Ruth is 67, Bernie 71. It was typical, when they were married 50 years ago, for women to be uninvolved in their family financial life and certainly in their husbands' business affairs, even if they were close in other respects.
I feel sure that she enjoyed all of the material fruits of her husband's fraud. But I think she can only be blamed for greed and willful ignorance. And, to a certain extent, can't we all?
Enough with Michael JacksonJul 8, 2009
Hands up anyone who - like me - objects to the Michael Jackson hoopla.
I don't mind celebrating his music - the bestselling album of all time certainly deserves to be marked.
But do we really need to elevate Whacko Jacko to the status of saint?

To the Editor.—
In an era of increasingly complex medical care, further additions to this complexity can be justified only if they represent meaningful contributions to the understanding or management of disease. The two related papers on obesity by Bray et al (235:1487 and 235:2008, 1976) present a complex algorithm for the investigation of obesity that obscures the most prevalent treatable factors in this disease (eating patterns and psychological concomitants) by omitting them from the algorithm and relegating them to a small table.Obesity is a frustrating clinical problem, but the traditional endocrine workup contributes little to its resolution. The authors report finding one case each of elevated and depressed thyroxin levels in their series of 261 obese patients. They do not state whether either or both of these might have been suspected clinically, and give us no data to show that indications for thyroid evaluation are different in obese

Demonstration Of Date Object Formatting Using Date Prototyping
If anyone is interested, I put together this little demo for a dude who posted a comment on my site. It demonstrates how to apply a date and time mask to a Javascript Date object using regular expressions. It creates two methods that are prototyped to the Javascript Date object and therefore are available to all dates:

- Date.prototype.timeFormat()

Thanks a ton for this. Really needed it for making my own masks on Unix timestamps.
Hey, by the way there is what I would consider to be a "bug" in this. getMonth() is a zero based function, so months like January come back as 0 and December comes back as 11. It can be fixed like this:
"m": this.getMonth()+1,
"mm": ((this.getMonth()+1).toString().length == 1) ? ("0" + this.getMonth()+1) : this.getMonth()+1,
Thanks for the update. It seems to be handled differently in every language, so I am hesitant to call anything a bug. However, a zero-based month system never feels natural. You just want to say FIRST month (as in 1st as in 1) of the year.

Dr Jameson raises an important issue but reaches the wrong conclusion. "Policymakers in government, public health, and medicine" recognize that maternal behavior influences birth outcome.1 In fact, the recent report of the Expert Panel on the Content of Prenatal Care2 outlines a comprehensive program directed at identifying and addressing these risk factors. The interventions can only be applied, however, if women who are poor have the same access to health care as their middle-class contemporaries. The Medicaid eligibility expansions were intended by Congress to assure such access. Blaming the women who engage in these high-risk behaviors and preventing them from accessing services can hardly be expected to improve their outcomes.I agree with Dr Moore's diagnosis that the fragmented and overly complex nature of our health care system contributes to the adverse perinatal outcomes among low-income women. He provides a brief description of an innovative

Linear Simulation of Spaced Microphone Arrays Using B-Format Recordings
A novel approach for linear post-processing of B-Format recordings is presented. The goal is to simulate spaced microphone arrays by approximating and virtually recording the sound field at the position of each single microphone. The delays occurring in non-coincident recordings are simulated by translating an approximative plane wave representation of the sound field to the positions of the microphones. The directional responses of the spaced microphones are approximated by linear combination of the corresponding translated B-format channels.

We stayed at The River Nest for our anniversary trip and it was the first time we had ever stayed in a bed and breakfast. What a wonderful place it was. Carol and Bill were excellent hosts and they made us feel at home immediately. The suite we had was wonderful and it overlooked the Mississippi River at Reads Landing near Wabasha,MN. We could watch the eagles soaring and nesting from our windows. The train tracks were across the street so we got to watch trains and that was interesting as well. The room was decorated very comfortably and included a large bathroom, bedroom, fireplace, jacuzzi, porch and deck. Carol's food was fantastic and you do not need lunch after the huge tasty breakfast. We really felt at home there. I am sure we will return again. We would highly recommend this gem of a B and B.
- Official Description (provided by the hotel):
- New construction in 2005. The River Nest B&B is on the main channel of the Mississippi River in Reads Landing Mn 90 miles south of the Twin Cities, and 2 miles from Wabasha. Fantastic eagle viewing and bird watching. Train enthusiasts will have the main track of Canadian Pacific and Amtrak right out front. Only 2 suites, so quiet and intimate. Both suites have private bath with walk-in shower, queen bed, fireplace, jacuzzi, sitting room, private deck, TV, wi-fi, and refrig. Carmel rolls and coffee in your room and then main breakfast in dining room an hour later. Breakfast includes fruit dish, and egg-bake main course, breads, jams, and DESSERT. We grow our own raspberries and strawberries and use our own fresh garden produce as the season allows. We would love to host you!

alopecia areata, a condition that causes round patches of hair loss.[1] Although the exact cause of AU is unknown, it is thought to be an autoimmune condition in which an affected person's immune system mistakenly attacks the hair follicles.[2] Roughly 20% of affected people have a family member with alopecia, suggesting that genetic factors may contribute to the development of AU.[3] There is currently no cure for AU, but sometimes hair regrowth occurs on it's own, even after many years.[2][4]Alopecia universalis (AU) is a condition characterized by the complete loss of hair on the scalp and body.

Does anybody know how to get a PCI bus speed from the device manager. I have a hardware device, a frame grabber, that must be plugged into the right slots for maximal performance. I am trying to figure out if I have it plugged into the right slot.
From the Intel Datasheet for the X58 (found here) I found this image which seems to suggest that if you have several PCI-e ports, the ones you want to try and use are the ones connected to the X58 chipset rather than the ICH10 as they may be "closer" to the CPU.
I cannot find anything to tell you what the link speed is in Windows apart from CPU-Z and GPU-z telling you the link speed for graphics cards.
On Linux it appears that
I cannot find a Windows equivalent, some sources suggest that WMI or SIW might work but I think that's a dead end, Googling "WMI Pci-e" gets nothing useful. I suspect that Windows does not expose the PCI-e link speed for some reason. I certainly couldn't find anything useful in Device Manager.
Your best bet may be to find out your exact motherboard version and look at the manual to see if they tell you what PCI-e slots work at which speeds.
if you have a video card, download gpu-z and it'll tell you what kind of port is being used ny the CARD.

I have a two-column theme with the main content on the left and a sidebar on the right. Right now, I use a sidebar image to create the vertical line that separates these two sections. I was wondering if there was an easier way to do this. I tried adding 'border-left: 1px solid' to my css and it did create a vertical line but it also shifted my sidebar items down and the vertical line doesn't connect to my header or footer. Any suggestions?

I really love the shadows of the pillars mirroring the cubic pattern on the jacket.
well done.
The colors are beautiful, and the hardness of the lines add to her emotion...I can just feel the headache when I look at this. And the fact that she's all alone, sort of behind this wall and staircase, it's like she had to hide so no one would see her crying. I love when I look at a photo and think "I've felt this way too". Beautiful and effective.
thats awesome!
That's so great.
It really, really looks like you're peering down at her and she doesn't know it.

good choice of clothing, angle, and overall tone of this is excellent. how did you do it? haha seriously.. it doesn't look like a quick snapshot on the camera.

Starbucks Ruined Peter LaBarbera's Mother's Day With 'Alphabetic Homoerotic Embrace'
Submitted by Brian Tashman on Monday, 5/12/2014 5:05 pm
Peter LaBarbera said today that his Mother's Day was ruined by the sight of "snuggling Starbucks lesbians" in an ad the coffee company put out to mark the holiday.
The Americans for Truth about Homosexuality president was angry that the ad not only included a "deviant and immoral" lesbian couple but also featured what he considered to be "an alphabetic homoerotic embrace."
LaBarbera lamented that a boycott of the coffee chain, championed by anti-gay groups including the National Organization for Marriage and the Family Research Council, has grown "anemic" and called for a new pressure campaign to reach Starbucks executives who "aren't acting like they fear the consumer power of mobilized religious conservatives."
For Mother's Day Starbucks released the commercial below, voiced by Oprah Winfrey and hawking a new "Oprah Chai" tea. The ad celebrates all sorts of moms–including the "two moms are better than one mom"–shown with the affectionate lesbian "moms" at right and the "M's" in "MOM" in what I suppose is an alphabetic homoerotic embrace. Messages like this no long shock a post-Christian America shaped in part by decadent corporations pandering to the highly organized LGBT lobby. Starbucks already has sold its corporate soul (is that an oxymoron?) to the homosexual agenda. Its executives made that clear in 2012 when they defiantly rebuffed a boycott threat by the National Organization for Marriage (NOM) and affirmed that support for homosexual "marriage" is a "core" Starbucks value.
The NOM "Dump Starbucks" boycott that followed seems anemic two years later (only 68,200 pledges)–but Starbucks [877-421-9062] remains a plump target for a more effectual and better organized boycott. Let's face it: finding substitutes for overpriced yuppie coffee is pretty easy. We'll see what happens, but one thing is certain: Starbucks execs are not backing down in their support of sexual sin and they surely aren't acting like they fear the consumer power of mobilized religious conservatives.
As for single moms, our hearts go out to the many women who find themselves struggling to provide for their children with no dad in the house. But at least in most cases, single moms did not set out to deny their kids a father–just as single straight dads–unlike homosexual two-"dad" households–did not intentionally create motherless homes. And unlike those snuggling Starbucks lesbians in the ad below, single moms are not modeling deviant and immoral behavior condemned by God to their innocent children.

Scientist at Work: Dr. Patricia Wright; Saving Madagascar's Bounty for Its Lemurs and Its People
By JANE E. BRODY
Published: August 11, 1998
Patricia Wright's trail to Madagascar and environmental heroism began in the 1960's with an act that is now considered the antithesis of conservation: the purchase in a Brooklyn pet store of an owl monkey, and then a second one to keep it company.
Within a week of the birth of her own daughter, Amanda, the monkeys too produced a Brooklyn baby, and Dr. Wright, then a mother and housewife, became increasingly intrigued by the behavior of these nocturnal monkeys. The female monkey's only responsibility appeared to be breast-feeding. The male did all the parenting, carrying and caring for the baby.
Dr. Wright, who had loved the woods growing up in upstate New York and had an undergraduate degree in biology, decided she wanted to study these monkeys in the wild. Books in the New York Public Library told her that the ''wild'' meant the jungles of Peru, home to wild boar, jaguars and deadly fer-de-lance snakes. She consulted Dr. Warren Kinzey, then an anthropologist at City University of New York, pumping him for guidance.
Dr. Kinzey told her that without a graduate degree and university affiliation, no one would finance her effort. But she was undeterred. Through a friend, she arranged an affiliation with the New School for Social Research and persuaded Nancy Mulligan, a wildlife fancier from Rochester, N.Y., to finance the expedition for herself, her husband, their daughter, 3, and a native guide.
Dr. Wright's library research had led her to a site that turned out to have long since been converted from jungle to coffee plantations. No monkey had been seen there for 25 years. The next stop was a six-day canoe ride into the jungle, family in tow. Her guide soon got bored looking for monkeys in the dark, so one night Dr. Wright ventured alone into the jungle. Frightened by what sounded like wild boar and with her flashlight growing dim, she spent the night in a spiny tree, only to be scolded by none other than two owl monkeys whose territory she had invaded.
They were the first of many for Dr. Wright. Six months later, she returned to Brooklyn with notebooks filled with observations, the first data ever gathered on nocturnal monkeys in the wild.
At Dr. Kinzey's urging, she enrolled in graduate school at the City University in 1977. After nine years, which included a 14-month trip to the Amazon, she received her doctorate.
Then it was off to Madagascar, known for its rare species, especially lemurs. Armed with a grant from the World Wildlife Fund, Dr. Wright hoped to find the ''probably extinct'' greater bamboo lemur. Madagascar, in the Indian Ocean, had physically split from the African mainland about 150 million years ago, becoming a laboratory of isolated evolution. The shrinking jungles harbor thousands of species of plants and animals known nowhere else on earth. Eighty percent of Madagascar's wildlife is unique to the island, including nearly all of its mammals, 90 percent of its reptiles and amphibians, 80 percent of its plants and half its birds. The rosy periwinkle that is the source of the life-saving leukemia drug vincristine is one of 8,000 native plants. But all of this bounty was imperiled.
''Flying over the island,'' she recalled, ''all I saw was devastation,'' the result of decades of slash-and-burn farming.
En route to establishing that the greater bamboo lemur, a little primate with big, watchful eyes and charcoal-gray fur, was indeed alive and doing better than expected in the rain forest, Dr. Wright discovered a new species of lemur with golden red fur, the golden bamboo lemur, which thrives on the cyanide-laced shoots of young bamboo, though how this three-and-a-half-pound primate tolerates an amount of poison that could kill a man is still anyone's guess.
''But no sooner had I found this new species than I heard farmers sawing down 200-year-old rosewood trees, each of which takes about nine smaller trees with it,'' Dr. Wright said. An appeal to an official to protect the forest ended with a challenge to Dr. Wright to help establish a national park.
She explained that the inroads into the rain forests were nothing more than stopgaps for the farmers living in one of the 10 poorest countries in the world. After only two years of farming on newly cleared land, the soil would be depleted, forcing them to cut down yet more forest. Meanwhile, the runoff of ochre-tinted soil ruined waterways and the loss of trees threatened the watershed. And since few Malagasy were aware of the economic potential of ecotourism, the farmers gave little thought to the fast-disappearing habitats of Madagascar's unique flora and fauna, which include 32 species of lemurs (16 of the largest ones have already become extinct).
By the time Dr. Wright arrived there in 1985, more than 80 percent of the forests had disappeared from the island and there were only two national parks in Madagascar, the last one established in 1930.
It took her five years to create the park, five years of days-long treks to visit farmers and explain the purpose of the park and its potential value to their families, five years of negotiations with village elders and government officials, five years of international phone calls and grant proposals to raise the money needed, not just to create the park but to give the villagers something for the land they would sacrifice.

Skip to comments.What a top aide to Sarah Palin really thinks about Mitt Romney,Bristol Palin,Erick Erickson and more
Posted on 05/23/2011 10:16:48 PM PDT by Bratch
A series of messages forwarded to The Daily Caller show a top aide to former Alaska Gov. and possible presidential candidate Sarah Palin mocking top political figures and even her bosss own daughter, Bristol Palin.
RedState.com founder and CNN contributor Erick Erickson is a total douchebag, wrote Palin speechwriter and domestic policy adviser Rebecca Mansour in a May 22, 2010, message. Greasy dumb ass with a talent for self-promotion. He threw himself in at the Govs SC rally. Self-promotion. (Erickson said South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley invited him to the rally).
Mitt Romney supporters are wacky as hell, Mansour wrote, but usually Romneys presence online is just an AstroTurf brigade.
Would love to tell Mitts lackeys to stop backstabbing my boss anonymously, Mansour wrote.
Then-California Senate candidate Chuck DeVore wants to be the next Hugh Hewitt (or Huckabee). He knows he cant win. He wants to become a personality. Give him a show to go away, Mansour wrote. Palin endorsed Carly Fiorina over DeVore in the GOP primary for the race, angering some conservatives.
Mansour sent these embarrassing and revealing missives as direct messages on Twitter to an online-only acquaintance approximately a year ago. The person who received the messages forwarded them to TheDC.
(Excerpt) Read more at dailycaller.com ...
How can any intelligent person have such intimate conversations with someone they've never met in person? It's mind-boggling.
Except for playing right into the libs hands or set up; this story is meaningless.
Just a bunch of bs true or not.
110% accurate.
Whoever told you "just be yourself" couldn't have given you worse advice.
Buh Bye.
You betcha!
Well, if true.....it puts to rest the fact that Sarah Palin is most likely running like many of us had been saying since last year, even the day she stepped down from office we knew what was coming and still we got deniers! Lol
I'm not sure why it would leave a mark, why is the DC only releasing some of it? The rest must be more yawn inducing than the others.
Just idle chit chat.
Is she young and part of the whole "twitter-I-am-in-Starbucks-restroom-taking-a-number-2" generation?
Otherwise how could anyone be so stupid as to say such things?
I know the question is a redundancy but one must wonder what drives a person to be so — stupid?
You are a jerk! I am sure you are ugly inside.
Mybe I'm ugly, but not as outright stupid as this moron Rebecca. Can you think of a more ill advised thing to do?
The Romney people have been brutally attacking Sarah for years and now Team Sarah is throwing it back at him.
And that is good.
What exactly did she do that was so stupid?
All she did was defend her boss. And trusted someone. RAM is not stupid she is brilliant, she is too caring.
These ridiculous comments that are now available to the public for one. Ripping Real Conservatives like DeVore with childish remarks? She should be fired immediately. What else is the DC withholding about the inner working of the family? She is on the Megan McCain list in my book now.
Nothing, that is the point. It is a non controversy ginned up the day Frank Bailey's book comes out by the socalled conservative Daily Caller.
Oh come on. She spoke her mind. You have to admit Rebecca's comments were refreshing (if true). She is loyal to her boss. If I had an employee who did this I would call her in with face in palms, muttering Rebecca, Rebecca, Rebecca...We all are dreaming of a transparent administration, but keep it toned down for now.
So caring she slams DeVore? Give me a break. And Erickson is a sleaze? He is just an activist getting the word out best he can. He does stupid stuff but this line of attack was totally unwarranted.
Devore would never have won. You try being on a campaign like RAM and see if you can keep everything secret.
Adam Clymer
Yeah I agree! This activist on the other side decided to cash in I bet on a private conversation or to be exact, tweets by handing it over to the DC.... There are many things said in private that many people already knew about it public: Eric Erikison rakes on people but says some snarky things about people! We all felt pro Palin or not, angered that Bristol was making a stupid decision to get back with Levi and Mitts online coverage is Astro-Turfed
If this came out from any other candidates #2 with reckless charges towards Palin, I am sure others here would find it as ill advised and grounds for termination as I do on this. Why put this in writing EVER.
Devore and his people went after Palin for not endorsing him....RAM was defending her boss.....this stuff isn't that bad, hell - an aide or Republican supporter to Romney today said that Palin and Bachmann were "crazy women"....we don't have their names but that wad just as childish as ever
So? They are available to see. Big deal! One of her staffer's has an opinion, and is a little protective over her boss? Good, Sarah has good people working for her, some may be a little green and have to know people are always going to twist what you say. Good grief, as a Californian, I appreciate DeVore - but he was not ready for the big time yet.
So now, you lower yourself to to mock the staffers looks because you can't clearly articulate what is wrong with her opinions?
Twitter annoys me for some reason - I have no criticism of what was said, I do think she was a little naive to think it was private communication, unless she put it out there knowing it would get out -
I think Palin speaks pretty clearly herself, and I don't find a mix of messages at all.
That is my problem with this woman. The childishness. If you have to vent on others in the Party, create a Nome De Plume like the rest of us and go off on FR. Having her name to this and the fact that she is the supposed right hand man of Palin puts this too close. Why should we accept the same crappy behavior from the Conservative side that we get from the Elitist you cite for the "crazy women" comment. Also, just look how far that attitude is getting those dopes. Palin can do much better.
I would even let the Erickson and Mittens thing slide, but DeVore is a solid Conservative and a lot of us were upset with Palin backing the RINO. At no point did anyone get the impression that he is a sleaze looking for a drive time radio slot. I don't like it.
You bet. Apparently from the attitudes from a majority on this thread, personal insults are cool.
Puleeeze, your faux outrage projection is so lame.
Now tell us what you really, really, think of Palin
It always has to circle back to PDS doesn't it. I'm sure all the Palin supporters here are already digging through my posts looking for Palin hate. Feel free to. There will be little more than questioning whether she is running. My surprise is why you as a diehard supporter would circle the wagons on this. I don't understand why everyone shrugs this off as silly when we wouldn't accept it from others?
Some of the more interesting posters who left were Achance and Vassar Bushmills.
I lurk at Red State but only post once every few months, so I don't know all the details.
But I have noted RedState has removed "birthers" and "Paulbots" and doesn't seem too fond of Sarah Palin enthusiasts.
Your mileage may vary.
Well, by mocking someone's appearance, you kind of set yourself up for grief. You're still not able to articulate what exactly is wrong with the statements, so I find myself bored with the exchange.
Take care -
Bad form on Mansour's part to betray a trust with Sarah Palin to share *confidential* information with anyone. Mansour even worried that the information might be shared. She knew better, so this is very sad. I'm sure she regrets this more than anything, so prayers for her, too.
On the brighter side, Mansour knows exactly who she told! We will soon know the identity of her twitter *friend*.
Lesson learned.
I feel very sad for Sarah Palin. No wonder she finds it hard to trust anyone outside her own family.
Extra prayers for Sarah Palin and her precious family tonight.
Now that you mention it, the site is getting a little lame. I rarely hit it anymore. I can't even remember my sign in over there anymore. It just seems like they are a day late on news anymore and the news posted is uninteresting. I did not know about the purge but it adds up.
Don't know about the rest of what Rebecca said, but that's an accurate desciption of Erickson.
And here I thought you were a humorless toad. Hilarious.
Oh come on Lazlo, you know what's published is generally part of half-truths, and in politics it seldom is even a quarter way true if at all.
Someone playing,"He said she said" to get peoples attention should'nt be given any significance when it comes to candidates.
Erickson is a self promoter (which is fine) and a regular on CNN's John King show. Maybe it's just me, but I do have issues with any "Conservative" who is seemingly happy working for CNN or MSNBC.
The Romney Team has a history of backstabbing and the Palin's daughter has at times seemed goofy. Nothing new here
I think another dynamic is involved here. I find it interesting that these messages ended up at the Daily Caller. Why not The Blaze, or Townhall, or some Left Wing site? Nope, ends up at the Daily Caller, a site which seems to have a rooting interest for a certain potential Republican Presidential candidate, IMO.
It does have significance. She is the inner inner circle of SP' staff and even though the DC does push Cain, it usually has straight stories and the staffer admitted to all of it to them the second time, so it is true. I just don't like this behavior.
Don't panic though. The morning crew will take over in a few hours and keep pummeling me into submission. I expect my ping box to be loaded to the gills till I give a full mea culpa. LOL.
Her tight inner circle doesn't really get discretion too well, do they?
The fact that Palin's own daughter gets targeted for snark lessens the sensationalism behind this.
It's just one person's catty off the record opinions, not reflective of Palin office gossip.
Tammy Bruce is ripping the daily caller to shreds on twitter over this, and so, it seems, are the comments after the article.
I agree with your post wholeheartedly!!! Palin's camp has been one if not the best tightly zipped political teams in long while! A story today, quoted Republicans saying that they have no clue what Palin or her staff is up too -nada. They don't leak strategy , they don't leak who they hire (others do that) ....etc
So what RAM did probably was the weakest link and other than the Bristol stuff, everything else wasn't that bad
Thanks! I just looked. Doesn't excuse Mansour for betraying Sarah's confidence regarding family matters. The other stuff is Mansour's opinion and I could not possibly care less about that.
Remember to get *some* sleep...lol. Our HERO BIBI addresses Congress at 11:00AM your time and he's going to speak the unvarnished truth!
I think there have certainly been a couple big leaks...there's the book coming out from her former aid, and there's the in-house emails, and I feel like we're forgetting some other incidents... but yes, it's notable that nobody knows her next move, even though she's telegraphed it with that "fire in her belly" and whatnot.
What's notable is, nobody would care about tweets or emails from someone in any other politicians camp.
She's probably wise to hold off announcing until these attempts to scare her out of the race blow over. I'd like a Flag Day announcement.
I didn't see anything confidential here, really.
I think RAM thought she was talking to a friend, and that friend decided to betray her for who knows what reason.
There's nothing newsworthy there either. Just the DC trying to embarrass RAM and BigBoss (I like that)...but really, where's the substance?
Did RAM say things that would pertain to the Governor's competence? Did she reveal any plans?
No. She was talking for herself like she usually does on Twitter. Her opinions are her own.
The fact that the DC thought that RAMs personal thoughts were newsworthy says more about the DC than it does RAM, who privately was sharing thoughts that I and others share publicly on C4P all the time.
She's gotta be a freeper. Who here *hasn't* said the things she's said?
Well at least she didn't say Obama was clean and articulate. Or call NYC 'hymie town'.

New Don't Ask, Don't Tell Guidelines
The Pentagon has issued new guidelines for enforcing Don't Ask, Don't Tell. Now just five senior officials can expel someone from the armed forces for being gay. The secretaries of the Navy, Army, and Air Force must consult with the Pentagon's top lawyer and the Undersecretary of Defense for Personnel, Clifford Stanley, before making any final determination. The Washington Post saw a memo from Stanley outlining the new procedure.
"This latest twist highlights the legally uncertain period in which we now find ourselves," Stanley said in his memo.
DADT was ruled unconstitutional by a federal judge who ordered it stopped. The Pentagon stopped it, for a day, when a 3-judge panel put a stay on judge's order until the case could be appealed. The Pentagon and the Obama administration want congress to change the DADT law, not the courts. But the courts could issue another injunction.
Stanley did warn service members against coming out.
In his memo, Stanley also cautioned service members that altering their behavior or revealing their sexual identity "may have adverse consequences" as the policy makes its way through the courts.

SALT LAKE CITY (January 23, 2013)--A group of Utah doctors declared health emergency Wednesday because of the Salt Lake City area's lingering air pollution problem.
The group, Utah Physicians for a Healthy Environment, planned to deliver a petition Wednesday demanding immediate action by elected officials.
The group wants Gov. Gary Herbert and mayors of northern Utah cities to cut the pollution.
The doctors suggest reducing highway speed limits, making mass transit free for the winter and curbing industrial activities.
They want a permanent ban on wood burning and they want large employees to let people work from home.
The doctors are advising people to avoid the outdoors.
They say people can help their bodies fight toxic exposure by introducing anti-oxidants in their diet, such as fish oil or chocolate.

Kandi Burruss & Hubby Todd Tucker Enjoy Their Honeymoon In The Bahamas [PHOTOS]
After one week of marital bliss, Kandi Burruss and Todd Tucker finally got a change to get away and enjoy their honeymoon. The Tuckers flew to the Bahamas, along with a group of their Hollywood friends, to celebrate their recent nuptials and the birthday of their good pal, movie producer Will Packer.
As we reported earlier, the newlyweds were forced to postpone their wedding trip because Todd landed a new gig. "I just wanted to say thank you for all of your well wishes prayers for @todd167 & I," the new Mrs. Tucker wrote the morning after she jumped the broom. "I know people are asking why am I on IG when I should be on my honeymoon. Well @todd167′s has to go out of town to set up a show his company is producing for a network that's just starting production this week."
"We're gonna do a quick getaway next weekend," she added. "Although I would have loved to take one of those long honeymoons & fly out the day after the wedding, anyone that watched #RHOA knows that I wanted Todd to produce his own shows & work for his self & that dream is coming true so …read more
