This recipe is so easy and tastes great. We love cracker thin crust and this is it. I stretch the dough really thin and then spread olive oil on top before baking on a sheet of foil for 10 mins. Then I put the toppings on and put it back in the oven without the foil and bake for about 10 more mins and it always turns out great
I used my own pizza dough and sauce recipes and completely forgot to use the spinach that was on the counter along with everything else *DOH*. I managed to get broccoli, cauliflower (micro blanched), green pepper, onion, mushrooms and calamity olive slices onto it along with the Italian herbs. The out come was really scrumptious and far better than anything you could get from any restaurant in this town! I make pizza with extreme rarity but I'll come back to this the next time. Made for Veg-Swap 16.
I love veggie pizza! I did use a prepared sauce and omit the broccoli, but otherwise followed the recipe. I also added grated parmesan before baking. The pizza was very colorful and the options are endless. I rated this a four as I thought the sauce as written needs more flavor. Terrific job by your team!
A great veggi-licious pizza! I used Pizza Dough Sicilian-Style Pizza Dough (Bread Machine) and Italian-style tomato paste plus garlic to make it. For toppings I used small broccoli florets which were parboiled for 3 minutes. I also included fresh chopped spinach leaves, bell pepper pieces, sliced mushrooms, chopped Roma tomatoes, and black olives. We enjoyed this pizza ~ Thanks Gourmet Cruisers!
This was really good! I am a sucker for vegetarian pizza. I used my homemade pizza dough recipe. And topped as posted using canned mushrooms, and chopped frozen spinach (all I could find) and yellow onions. I think there were simply too many wonderful flavours all put together. They tended to cancel each other out. Every bite was interesting though!
Icelanders love veggie pizzas, but sadly do not know how to make a good one IMHO. The ingredients show little imagination & the amt used is scant. I made individual pizzas on pita bread (2 halves ea) & did omit the spinach (not a DH fave on a pizza). All else was available from the fridge & that is part of the appeal of this recipe. It is veggie-rich, ingredient-friendly & tasty. The Gourmet Cruisers did good w/their pizza effort. :-)
WOW did I make a pizza! I cheated and bought some prepared pizza dough..I skipped the fresh tomatoes and doubled up on the sun dried ones. I chopped the broccoli, precooked and drained it well before putting on the pizza! I used red and yellow peppers, cremini mushrooms and slivered extra garlic on top. I used fresh spinach and sliced it thin. The only extra ingredient I added was quartered artichoke hearts and sprinkled pizza with red chili flakes for some heat! Thank you Gourmet Cruisers for a wonderful veggie pizza!!

My husband is type 2 diabetic and has high blood pressure. We were looking for a way of life to help him get off medication and improve our overall health. After reading Rip Esselstyn's book, it gave us the incentive to try the vegan method. We have been on the vegan way of life for only about a month and have each lost about 10 lbs so far and we are not ever hungry. The recipes in his book are excellent. Rip gives you his story, educates you on the benefits of eating a plant based diet, gives recipes, and an exercise program for beginners to advanced. He is a triathlon champion, champion swimmer, and firefighter. He exposes the myths about being a vegan. If you want to improve your health, have energy and lose weight, this book is for you.
I think if U are really trying to lower your cholestrol ,blood pressure,even diabetic levels this is the book for U. I think over taking Meds for a long period of time. U can make a drastic change in lowering your #'s,educating yourself on how to eat and what to avoid. This is why I purchased this book. I do not know if I can do it strictly long term, meaning(on going ) but I can lower my #'s and hopefully get off medication. This is my goal anyway.To be more Pro active,and knowledable in my over all health care.
This book is so great! I love the information, and it gives you great recipes. Love it!
Great Motivation to get my diet started.

Show Detailed Description
Older women have an exaggerated increase in blood pressure during exercise. However, the reasons for this are unclear. It is important to investigate this phenomenon because a greater blood pressure response to exercise has been associated with an increased risk of stroke and mortality in otherwise healthy individuals. A unique aspect of aging in women is the profound change in hormone levels (i.e. estrogen and progesterone) associated with menopause. The influence of changes in estrogen and progesterone levels on the cardiovascular responses to exercise is poorly understood. However, it has been suggested that these hormones might change the responsiveness of the cardiovascular system. Possible mechanisms that could account for these changes are the arterial baroreflex and feedback from the exercising muscle (known as the exercise pressor reflex), both of which are known to powerfully modulate blood pressure during exercise. However, to date, few human studies have thoroughly examined the influence of changes in hormone levels on baroreflex function during exercise or the exercise pressor reflex in older women. As such, the purpose of this research project is to assess baroreflex function and the exercise pressor reflex in older women after transdermal estrogen alone, transdermal estrogen plus progesterone, progesterone alone and placebo.

Can anyone tell me how to customize the look of my search results page. I've tried a few Mods (Advanced Search for WordPress 1.5 plugin - for example), but can't seem to get them to integrate properly with my WP 1.5 Theme.
Basically all i want is for the results page to display a title, short description and link to the full post instead of listing the full posts, which makes it difficult to find information quickly.

Outside The Court: Filming the stories behind the court cases
Film-maker Marc Isaacs spent three months on the steps outside Highbury and Islington Magistrates' Court in London, talking to the people who were coming in and out. The result is Outside The Court, a documentary that is part of BBC Four's Justice season.
Marc told the BBC TV blog about how he filmed the stories of the people involved in the court cases.
How did you decide on the subject for this documentary?
The idea for this film came from the controller of BBC Four, Richard Klein. He wanted, as part of the Justice season, to have a film featuring ordinary people.
He asked me if I would be interested in this subject because he knows I am drawn to the lives of ordinary people. [Marc made All White In Barking, as part of the BBC's White season, and Calais: The Last Border.] The rest is history, or recent history.
Did you have any sort of security while on the steps or was that not necessary?
No, just my colleague Guy King, who was my researcher and second camera person. But he's soft too, so we were totally vulnerable, but that's the best way.
Did you feel intimidated by any of the people you needed to approach for the film?
No not at all. I run a mile from intimidating people. I go for the ones with soft centres. The ones who are willing to open their hearts and tell of the deeper reasons why they regularly find themselves in front of the judge.
The court deals with all of the usual cases that any magistrates' court would see on a day to day basis, from drug and drink-related offences to violence and motor offences.
Mark [who was in court for breaching bail conditions] and Michel, the Frenchman, were just two of the characters who were more than happy to share their lives with us.
Who were you most interested by, of all the people you met on the steps?
Each for different reasons but Michel stole my heart.
He was in court for carrying an offensive weapon because he wanted to exact revenge on a security guard who he claims had been violent towards him.
On the way to commit this crime, Michel changed his mind and called the police to hand.
The best moment in the film, for me, is when Michel opens his heart to us in the cafe. This is the centre of the film, in my view.
Were people hostile to you at first? What did you say to open the conversations and bring them round?
I approach people in a non-threatening way and just try to treat them as an equal and then act instinctively from there.
Is there a culture of people like journalists and paparazzi waiting on court steps? Did you get friendly with any of the other people waiting outside?
Every time the paparazzi turned up we went home. I despise those people, they are like vultures and I didn't want to be associated with them.
Did the programme turn out how you expected?
Film-making is a discovery. There are always surprises and thank God for that.
Most TV today eliminates the element of discovery in documentary. I want to fight to keep this idea alive. These kinds of films thrive on freedom and spontaneity.
What was the worst moment?
Waiting in winter for hours with nobody interesting turning up at court. I am not good in the cold.
Did you make any friends in the process of the programme?
I will stay in touch with a few of the characters but our relationship will always be defined by the experience of filming together. It's a friendship of a particular kind.
What was the most interesting thing that happened, or that you learned?
I learn something new in every film but, for me, I am pleased that we managed to make a film like this without moving too far away from the court itself. We tread a fine line but pull it off hopefully.
Presumably the story would be ever-changing - would you like to do it again or was once enough?
There is no story until you as the film-makers create one. So yes, if I did it again it would be very different but once is enough of course. I am ready for the next film now.
Outside The Court is on BBC Four at 9pm on Monday, 31 January.

As a legal practitioner, though it is many many years since I appeared in a Magistrates' Court, I found this programme hugely rewarding. Kind, insightful with perceptive and gently insistent questioning from Marc Isaacs. One was allowed to draw one's own conclusions about the variety of interviewees. I, too, had my soft spot for the muddled Michel. May he find a place where he can thrive.

As a news photographer,and ex-alcoholic,I take issue with Mr Issacs' programme and his comments here.Due to press complaints commission guidelines,photographing or interviewing people with mental issues or drug or alcohol addictions are strictly off limits to the print media....they are vulnerable people,and especially when are 'on' their drug of choice could be viewed as not having entire responsibility over their comments or actions....can you see where I'm going with this Mr Isaacs?...the makers of this programme will do well from it,the subjects,unlikely to.'I despise those people, they are like vultures and I didn't want to be associated with them.' I think the real vultures outside the court weren't the paparazzi.They were the cosy middle-class guys who have and will benefit from these vulnerable individuals.I was hoping , as the programme went on,that Mr Isaacs would have some guts and go for the 'hard-cases' one sees at courts..but no...nice and safe.yawn.I liked the programme's editing though,and must commend it.

Dear Colin,
I just read your comment. Myself and my production team took great care to maintain a lengthy and close relationship with some of the vulnerable people we filmed and this included speaking to family members and relevant friends in detail. The people in the film get alot out of the filming process as Michel states in the film himself. It isn't a one way relationship. I have made numerous films of this kind over many years and whilst the relationship between the filmmaker and the contributor is a complicated one, it usually has many benefits that go far beyond what appears on screen. My comment about the paparazzi is one that I stick too having witnessed their behaviour and total lack of concern for anything other than grabbing the image. The hard cases you mention didn't interest me in the slightest. I wanted to show how these vulnerable people you speak of clearly need more help in their life than a magistrate (however sympathetic) willing to dish out endless fines and short term prison sentences. Thanks for watching the film and commenting.

Great report, very disturbing ! It clearly shows us how people can be destroy by the society, just because they don't have the help they need. Thanks for having opened my eyes ! These people, as Michel said, are, alas, excluded from our world ! Good luck to them !
To react with what Colin said, I think that this kind of report is just vital for all of us : we forget that these people are human, but something in their life transformed them. Actually, I understood, with this report, that we are a part of their troubles, acting in the society as we are doing in the every day life. To not have dealt with hard cases was a good choice, because we can see that these people, although they have not kill, have their life destroy as much as criminals. They just need help, and people to listen carefully to them. Did anybody in the court have heard their stories with such objectivity?...

Hi Marc
I just wanted to commend you on a truly insightful production that brought engaging ideas and diverse characters to the forefront, whilst giving them a voice. I viewed the first broadcast on the 31st January, and became enticed in the structure of the documentary. The dialogue flowed naturally, the camerawork allowed a bigger perspective of the environment of court life, as well as providing a fitting soundtrack that summarised the whole atmosphere. The lack of documentaries featuring ordinary people truly baffles me as there is such a purposeful reasoning for broadcasting, through originaility alone. These kind of documentaries are of particular interest to me and as a media culture student in my second year at University, I would be something that I would enormously want to be involved in. If you have any tips or advice on how to engage audiences through these types of documentaries, I would be very thankful. A true, immensely thought provoking programme, that covered a wide range of topics and derservedly provides enough footage to be broadcasted on bbc two, if not on one.

Warfighting Robots Could Reduce Civilian Casualties, So Calling for a Ban Now Is Premature
This is a guest post. The views expressed here are solely those of the author and do not represent positions of IEEE Spectrum or the IEEE. This article contains excerpts from "Lethal Autonomous Systems and the Plight of the Non-combatant," published in AISB Quarterly, No. 137, July 2013.
I've been engaged in the debate over autonomous robotic military systems for almost 10 years. I am not averse to a ban, but I'm convinced we should continue researching this technology for the time being. One reason is that I believe such systems might be capable of reducing civilian casualties and property damage when compared to the performance of human warfighters. Thus, it is a contention that calling for an outright ban on this technology is premature, as some groups already are doing.

Seventy percent of our deficit has come within the passed four years.
Put on your seat belts for another four years of excessive spending.
Our country will then elect more liberals, and we'll spend our way into a another Cuba.
Remember Cuba? They have national health care, and their wealth has been redistributed. The businesses which the people didn't build are government run. The rich were made to pay alittle more.

Each week I'll give my thoughts on the world of sports:
• I cannot begin to thank the people at the Indianapolis 500. It was the thrill of a lifetime to be the Grand Marshal at the race's parade. Then to run in the pace car at around 120 MPH, with 300,000 screaming fans in attendance, it was one of the biggest thrills of my lifetime. Wow, it is really a special event with so many passionate fans there. I know basketball fans in the state of Indiana are something else, but the race fans who adore the Indy 500 are in a class by themselves. I met so many wonderful people during the few days I was there. It was something I will cherish the rest of my life.
• The San Diego Padres are on fire, baby! Nine straight wins and last week they made headlines because they were ready to trade pitcher Jake Peavy. My friends, does anyone realize how good Adrian Gonzalez is at first base. This team is hot, and it is still well behind a Dodgers team that is missin Manny Ramirez.
• Even with a loss Sunday, I like the Yankees' chances to win the AL East. They seem to get clutch hits and come-from-behind wins all the time. They have more pitching depth this season and the return of Alex Rodriguez has meant Mark Teixeira gets to see better pitches.
• The Denver Nuggets had a chance to take the series lead against the Lakers. Kobe Bryant and company found a way to win game three in Denver as the Nuggets struggled shooting their trifectas. In crunch time, Bryant is the best finisher in the NBA. Phil Jackson's team enters this week up 2-1 but this is still a tough, physical series.
• Congratulations to Todd Helton of the Rockies on his 2000th career hit. I think he made the right choice playing professional baseball. Remember, he was also a quarterback at Tennessee around the same time the Vols had a young man named Peyton Manning.
• How about a salute to Alabama sophomore Kelsi Dunne, who became the first player to throw back-to-back no-hitters in NCAA postseason softball play. Dunne held Jacksonville State hitless back-to-back days in a 9-0 softball victory Saturday. She led the Crimson Tide to a Super Regional championship and a spot in the Women's College World Series. The two no-hitters ties the NCAA postseason record. It was Dunne's fourth of the season and gave her a school-record six for her career. Talk about a special performance.

However, standard practice is to use
As others have said, it is valid.
There are some downsides to each approach though:
While it may be completely valid HTML to not include an href, especially with an onclick handler, there are some things to consider: it will not be keyboard-focusable without having a tabindex value set. Furthermore, this will be inaccessible to screenreader software using Internet Explorer, as IE will report through the accessibility interfaces that any anchor element without an href attribute as not-focusable, regardless of whether the tabindex has been set.
So while the following may be completely valid:
It's far better to explicitly add a null-effect href attribute
For full support of all users, if you're using the class with CSS to render an image, you should also include some text content, such as the title attribute to provide a textual description of what's going on.
The current HTML5 draft also allows ommitting the href attribute completely.
To answer your question: Yes it's valid.
Indeed, you can leave it empty (W3 validator doesn't complain).
Taking the idea one step further: leave out the ="". The advantage of this is that the link isn't treated as an anchor to the current page.
Whilst W3's validator may not complain about an empty
A valid URL is a URL which complies with the URL Standard. Now the URL Standard is a bit confusing to get your head around, however nowhere does it state that a URL can be an empty string.
...which means that an empty string is not a valid URL.
The HTML5 Working Draft goes on, however, to state:
This means we can simply omit the

Comments about 'Letters: I will take Alexander Hamilton's views over Mike Lee's'

Re: "When it comes to the Founders' intent, I will take Alexander
Hamilton's views over Mike Lee's."
No doubt.
But, of course, Hamilton was a radical outlier, one who unapologetically urged an American monarchy, and nearly unlimited monarchical power, to the end of his life.
Hamilton's view is, though, entirely consistent with modern American liberal dogma -- anointing a liberal president as monarch-for-life, with dictatorial power to impose socialism on America, even in cases in which the large majority of Americans oppose, as in Obamacare, such imposition.
We've come to expect nothing less from liberals, but real Americans favor Mr. Lee's approach -- actually listening to the voice of the people.

Excellent letter. The general welfare clause has always proved a stumbling block to those (e.g. Mike Richards, J. Thompson et al) who argue that this or that exercise of congressional power is not within the enumerated powers and therefore not constitutional. I have a question for you: If Art. I, section 8 absolutely limits congressional power to only those specific things enumerated, then why did the founders find it necesssary or appropriate to include Art. I, section 9, which specifically denies certain powers to Congress? Wouldn't that be an exercise in redundancy?

For the record --
Mike Lee can have all the opinion he wants.
His trampling of the Constitution by use of extortion [defunded and shutting down the Federal Government] against a law already passed by the House, and the Senate, and signed by the President and upheld the Supreme Court is a mockery of not only our Democratic process, but a mockery of the very Constitution itself.
let alone his mis-understanding the General Welfare" clause.

Good letter, Breck, but my problem with it is that your rationale of
Hamilton's comments would support almost anything that congress deems to be
'general welfare' to be fair game for the federal government to become
involved in. This shoots a big hole in the idea that one of the main purposes
of the Constitution was to maintain a limitation on federal powers.
This is similar to how some interpret the feds involvement under the commerce clause to be so broad.

The specific powers and duties of the U.S. Congress are enumerated in several
places in the Constitution. The most important listing of these powers is in
Article I, Section 8. The last paragraph grants to Congress the flexibility to
create laws or otherwise to act where the Constitution does not give it the
explicit authority to act. This clause is known as the Necessary and Proper
The Necessary and Proper Clause allows Congress "To make all Laws which shall be necessary and proper for carrying into Execution the [enumerated] Powers, and all other Powers. It is also sometimes called the "elastic clause." It grants Congress the powers that are implied in the Constitution, but that are not explicitly stated. The powers derived from the Necessary and Proper Clause are referred to as implied powers.
The correct way to interpret the Clause was the subject of a debate between Hamilton and Jefferson. Hamilton argued for an expansive interpretation of the clause. Jefferson was concerned about vesting too much power in any one branch of government. He argued that "necessary" was a restrictive adjective. Jefferson's interpretation would have strengthened States' Rights. Washington and Madison favored Hamilton's more flexible interpretation.

It's very sobering to realize the very same clash of viewpoints about the
role of government was prevalent among our Founding Fathers as we see today. In
effect, the Founders are telling us we need to work it out ourselves.
Anyone who claims to speak authoritatively about the intent of the Founders is probably cherry-picking historic views to support their opinion today. This is very common, but ultimately it's disingenuous.
The Founders amply demonstrated the way to govern: compromise. If these great Americans were unable to compromise, there would be no America today. They compromised on slavery, they compromised on states rights, they compromised on many things, otherwise the USA would never exist.
We need to follow their example, but many seem unable to realize this.

companies fits into General Welfare.
ACA/Obamacare as passed was never the will of the majority. It was passed using sophistry and chicanery theretofore unseen in the congress. As the facts have been exposed to the public there is an outcry to stop this disaster before it fully unfolds. Rewriting the law a little at a time will take years, and probably won't produce any better result than the Internal Revenue code. Stopping funding now and repealing the law later is the best hope for the US economy and the General Welfare of the population.
Lee, Cruz and the other true conservatives are doing the right thing.

Excellent letter. I have taught the concepts of the Constitution for over 30 years and find it incredible that Mike Lee ,who claims to know the Constitution, can be so narrow in his understanding of what Congress can and cannot do. I give him a vote of no confidence. It is time for him to stop listening to the tea party and listen to his Utah constituents. Obama Care has been decided. Stop holding the nation hostage over this and start doing something constructive.

@LDS Liberal:
"His trampling of the Constitution by use of extortion [defunded and shutting down the Federal Government] against a law already passed by the House, and the Senate, and signed by the President..."
It's not Lee that's defunding/shutting down the government. You'll notice the Constitution assigns all money bills to originate in the House. And the House funded all of the government... except Obamacare... which the House apparently judged we could do without, since we are in the hole to the tune of $17 trillion national debt. That is hardly shutting down the government.
And, if the object of Obamacare is to reduce the nation's healthcare costs, why does it need any funding in the first place?
"... and upheld the Supreme Court, is a mockery of not only our Democratic process, but a mockery of the very Constitution itself.
The Supreme Court did not hold that Obamacare falls under Article 1.8. In fact, the Court said it didn't. What the court did was merely hold that a penalty for not getting health insurance can be collected as a tax under the Congressional taxing authority.

Excellent comment. You are very, very right. Lee claims to understand the Constitution, but proves every time he turns around that he doesn't understand what it says, doesn't understand what it means or understand how it works.

Actually we call the obstructionists the far right authoritarian wing of the Republican party. Their "my way or the highway", scam approach to their lame opposition to the Affordable Care Act will shut down the government, maybe America.
@No One Of Consequence 1:16 p.m. Sept. 29, 2013
In truth, Lee, Cruz and the other obstructionists are not true conservatives. They are far right extremist fringe-dwellers who are NOT doing the right thing for the country and its citizens. If they don't like what the affordable Care Cast is doing, they should propose an alternative method of providing universal health care which is structured the way they deem appropriate. Instead, they are trying to destroy instead of build. Sad.

"If Art. I, section 8 absolutely limits congressional power to only those specific things enumerated, then why did the founders find it necesssary or appropriate to include Art. I, section 9, which specifically denies certain powers to Congress? Wouldn't that be an exercise in redundancy?"
Good point... and would the author please enumerate the powers not granted to the federal government but to the states and to the people (Amendment X)?
"... but my problem with it is that your rationale of Hamilton's comments would support almost anything that congress deems to be 'general welfare' to be fair game for the federal government to become involved in."
Let's see if we can list a few...
- Make possessing and consuming alcoholic beverages illegal (wait, we did that but it later got repealed).
- Make manufacturing of fatty, sugary foods illegal.
- Make eating them illegal, as well.
- Make consuming of 32/64 ounce soda drinks illegal (seems like that was recently tried).
- Make consuming of hard drugs such as cocaine and marijuana illegal (wait, they now are... but we're working on getting that changed).
- Require everyone to exercise for one hour per day.

James Madison, author of the constitution and the bill of rights:
"With respect to the words 'general welfare,' I have always regarded them as qualified by the detail of powers connected with them. To take them in a literal and unlimited sense would be a metamorphosis of the Constitution into a character which there is a host of proofs was not contemplated by its creators.
If Congress can apply money indefinitely to the general welfare, and are the sole and supreme judges of the general welfare, they may take the care of religion into their own hands; they may establish teachers in every State, county, and parish, and pay them out of the public Treasury; they may take into their own hands the education of children, establishing in like manner schools throughout the Union; they may undertake the regulation of all roads other than post roads. In short, every thing, from the highest object of State legislation, down to the most minute object of police, would be thrown under the power of Congress; for every object I have mentioned would admit the application of money, and might be called, if Congress pleased, provisions for the general welfare."

Senator Lee did not invent the concept of enumerated powers nor did he write the
10th amendment that limits the authority of Congress to the powers listed in the
James Madison did, as a protection against the unlimited powers of the monarchy they had just overthrown. He recognized that there were a certain number of necessary functions of government that could not be performed by individual states and would require the coordinated efforts of the states at a federal level. These enumerated powers were the tools the Federal government was to use to promote the welfare of the country as a whole. Anything else was reserved to the more local levels of government where individual citizens would be able to control the excesses of power that are so pervasive at all levels of government.
Hamilton of course disagreed as he was a monarchist and probably today would be derided as a fat-cat banker. Hamilton and Madison wrote a series of articles collectively called the Federalist Papers that expound on those two views of the role of government but both were strong proponents of the efforts to unify the states under the constitution.

Hamilton and Madison disagreed totally, but both their signatures are on the constitution. Just shows that Mike Lee can't appeal to the founding fathers to justify his opinion.

this game is over. Classic game was the earlier game
NE thought they could be dinking & dunking their way to the superbowl without playmakers at WR. Good luck on that!
they probably wont...funny how they have not did much since spy gate :pic:
For all of those who say you just need a mediocre defense and a high powered passing attack. This game shows that defense or the lack thereof matters.
pats might come back......
pats might come back......
I think they will focus on play making WRs in the draft. You can't do without them in the playoffs.
