I completely agree with your review. I purchased this and the blush. Chanel Delight works better for my skin tone. However, I needed to have Diwali and I'm glad I purchased it.ReplyDelete
Also as an FYI - Chanel 57th St. in NYC has the fall collection out. They don't have this collection out though.
I bought Diwali almost as soon as I saw it. Very nice shade of gold. I like the fact that is pale gold. Beautiful collection overall:)ReplyDelete
I didn't buy it...didn't want to..but reading through your post I am getting tempted to :D I don't really like these metallic shades, but I won't get to buy all this later..Chanel regret :D :DReplyDelete
I love that colour... unfortunately chanel.com does not send to Germany, but fortunately my brother lives in L.A. :-)ReplyDelete
- AnahitaJune 29, 2012 at 10:13 AM
I am going to get the polish, the highlighter and the brumes d'or blush from this collection. I'm just waiting for it to hit the 5th ave boutique since they told me that that collection and the blue collection are going to be released at the same time so I figured I would only pay shipping one time.ReplyDelete
I was curious about Diwali when I got the email from Chanel, and your review makes it even more tempting...we'll see. Thanks for reviewing it.ReplyDelete
Amazing colour! I hope I´ll get them! ;)ReplyDelete
But unfortunately I live in Germany ;/ LOL
This is a tough one...I have been lemming Diwali for a while, as I absolutely love gold, and what's better than a gold Chanel? But looking at your swatches...I am almost positive I can find a near dupe of this in my collection. So, hmmmmm. I live near a Chanel counter that often has these limited releases, so if I can buy it there or online without paying shipping I probably will, but not otherwise, I think.ReplyDelete
I bought the same items you bought: the blush and the nail polish. I actually prefer Diwali over Delight. Cool tone gold somehow looks better on me than a warm gold color.ReplyDelete
I look forward to hear your thoughts on Brume D'Or :)
Oh that is beautiful!ReplyDelete
- AnonymousJune 30, 2012 at 3:36 AM
I bought the highlighter, the blusher and the nail polish. I love them all :)ReplyDelete
Valerie and Karo, this collection is on sale at Selfridges and Harrods in the UK, I think they both ship worldwide.
Eeps! It's pretty, but not $30 worth of pretty...at least in my opinion. I have something very similar from Sally Hansen. Wouldn't call it a dupe but it's close enough for me!ReplyDelete
I'm so happy to see that you think it's close to Dior Timeless Gold, I missed out on that and I'm so glad I have ordered Diwali (together with the gold powder - did you get that?).ReplyDelete
Beautiful! :) I wonder how it compares to Dior #207 Or Lumiere/Golden Light? It looks like it might be similar but perhaps more opaque & sparkly. I love the way Chanel does shimmer! This reminds me I should get hold of Gold Fingers before it's gone forever.ReplyDelete
- AnonymousJuly 1, 2012 at 1:21 AM
I ordered this and paid shipping too! I really think I will like it. The idea of gold and silver together is why I liked it.ReplyDelete
I've been counting down the months for this release since I saw it on the catwalk! Can't wait for it to launch in the UK :)ReplyDelete
How does this compare to RBL Moxie?ReplyDelete
I love Diwali and the other golden shades. Do you think there is a dupe for Diwali?ReplyDelete
I love rose gold, so Delight is my favorite! You know you're a nail polish addict when you need two photos for comparison! :)ReplyDelete

Born at Pilsen in Bohemia, 28 Feb., 1630; died at Prague, 8 Feb., 1692. He entered the Society of Jesus in 1646. The greatest part of his life was spent at Prague, where he taught humanities, philosophy, theology, and Scripture, was made rector of the imperial university, and guided for six years the Bohemian province of his order. Not only did Tanner burn to imitate the apostles and martyrs of the society, but, to awaken in his brethren a like desire, he employed his leisure hours in recounting to them the lives and deaths of the most prominent sons of St. Ignatius. His two works, "Societas Jesu ad sanguinis et vitae profusionem militans" (a history of the lives and deaths of those Jesuits who suffered martyrdom for the faith ) and "Societas Jesu Apostolorum imitatrix" (describing the heroic deeds and virtues of the Jesuits who laboured in all parts of the world with extraordinary success for the salvation of souls ) were written in this spirit. He paid special attention to reverence and devotion during the holy sacrifice of the Mass . According to his biographer, he used to celebrate with such living piety that he was like a lodestone, attracting the faithful to the altar where he offered the sacrifice. To foster this reverence in others, he wrote two other works, "Explanation of the Bloody Sacrifice of Christ in the Unbloody Sacrifice of the Mass", which was re-edited three times, and a pamphlet proclaiming God's wrath against those who should dare to desecrate holy temples by their misbehaviour. His name became more widely known through his work, "Dialogus controversisticus" on the validity of the Holy orders conferred on Andrew Frommens during the lifetime of his wife.
The Catholic Encyclopedia is the most comprehensive resource on Catholic teaching, history, and information ever gathered in all of human history. This easy-to-search online version was originally printed between 1907 and 1912 in fifteen hard copy volumes.
Designed to present its readers with the full body of Catholic teaching, the Encyclopedia contains not only precise statements of what the Church has defined, but also an impartial record of different views of acknowledged authority on all disputed questions, national, political or factional. In the determination of the truth the most recent and acknowledged scientific methods are employed, and the results of the latest research in theology, philosophy, history, apologetics, archaeology, and other sciences are given careful consideration.
No one who is interested in human history, past and present, can ignore the Catholic Church, either as an institution which has been the central figure in the civilized world for nearly two thousand years, decisively affecting its destinies, religious, literary, scientific, social and political, or as an existing power whose influence and activity extend to every part of the globe. In the past century the Church has grown both extensively and intensively among English-speaking peoples. Their living interests demand that they should have the means of informing themselves about this vast institution, which, whether they are Catholics or not, affects their fortunes and their destiny.

MONTGOMERY, Alabama - Michael Cruz's two-run home run handed Faulkner University a lead and right-hander Julian Esquibel took it from there, completely shutting down Belhaven in a 10-0 Eagles' rout here Saturday and a sweep of the opening Southern States Athletic Conference three-game series at Harrison Field.
Esquibel turned in the third dominating pitching performance of the weekend for the Eagles (12-1 overall, 3-0 SSAC), who won for the ninth straight time, outscoring the Blazers (7-7 overall, 0-3 SSAC) 27-2 in the three games. The junior allowed only five hits, striking out seven and not issuing a walk in his seven innings of work.
"Julian tossed a gem," Faulkner head coach Patrick McCarthy said. "He really had command today and came out ready to pitch. Our offense was able to see a lot of pitches and we absolutely dominated every facet of the game today."
After the Cruz two-run shot in the second, the Eagles added three more in the third to push the lead to 5-0. David Bishop drove in a run with a sacrifice fly, and Luis Sanchez followed with an RBI double and Esteban Paula a run-scoring single as Faulkner took control.
Faulkner scored in each of the next three innings as well to end the game by the 10-run rule. Bishop's single drove in two runs in the fourth, Dauris Holguin homered in the fifth, and Ethan Williams' RBI single highlighted a two-run sixth.
Bishop had two hits and three RBI on the day, which also saw Williams add a pair of hits. Eight different Eagles had hits in the game.
Faulkner hosts Cumberland Tuesday afternoon at 1 at Harrison Field.
"We need to be ready for Cumberland," McCarthy said. "They are a very tough ball

|[TRLog] Problem with Ver 5.99 and DVK
|email@example.com (Dan Downard)
|Sun, 2 Mar 97 05:53:30 UT
I just installed Ver 5.99 last night. I am having a problem with the internal W9XT DVK. 1. The DVK is working fine with W9XT's programming software (DVRC?). The W9XT TSR will run with TR but you have to use F12 to get to the messages. 2. The DVK was working fine in the 160M SSB test last weekend. I think I was using Ver. 5.98 (I switched back to 5.98 and am using it this weekend) 3. I have a DVK OFF window below the Exchange Window. 4. My LOGCFG has DVK PORT = 2. Is there something I have to do to enable the DVK? I looked through the latest release notes and notices the DVK changes but no mention was made of additonal commands.

Rossi campaign visits SK
Gubernatorial candidate Dino Rossi brought his message to Port Orchard early Tuesday morning, presenting his plan for business support and tax strategy to a crowd of eager Rotarians and local politicians.
"This election is not about (Gov.) Christine Gregoire," Rossi said. "It's not about me. It's not about the '04 election. What it's about is changing the culture and direction of state government for generations."
Rossi is challenging the incumbent Gregoire, to whom he lost the 2004 election by a razor-thin, contested margin.
As with every other modern political discussion, budget was at the forefront. Rossi criticized Gregore for doubling the state deficit and raising taxes after promising she would not.
He also positioned himself as the only person who can fix the problem, since he had spearheaded the balancing of the 2003 state budget.
"There is a tangible choice in this election," Rossi said. "In most cases you have one candidate who has done something and the other who hasn't and they are both just yapping. But we have an advantage in this race. Do you really think that I want to go down to Olympia and fix this budget mess again? It is not an easy thing to do."
I'm the only candidate," he said, "who can look you in the eye and say about this budget crisis, 'If I hadn't done this before I'd be nervous.' But I've done this before and I can do it again."
Rossi said that he had received recognition for his budget efforts from several diverse interests, and was credited with benefiting both businesses and social programs.
Rossi spoke for about 30 minutes, and did not take questions. He moved quickly through a variety of topics, the economy, the 2004 election, education and transportation, in an unstructured, extemporaneous manner.
While criticism of Gregoire became a recurring theme, it was offered in a reasoned, specific manner rather than the sharp, accusatory style that both sides have adopted in their advertising and debates.
Rossi used irony and humor to make his case, then turned it into a point. He talked about his transportation plan, which he said Gregoire has criticized.
However, the plan was assembled from components that Gregoire had once approved.
Rossi promised to fix several roads that are severely out of repair. His other specific transportation plans are to name a director for the Washington State Ferries, and to allocate 40 percent of the sales tax from automobile sales to road upkeep.
"We can move this 40 percent out of the general fund and use it for road projects," he said. "We won't need to raise your taxes in order to do this."
He then stated that if road projects are subsidized through higher taxes, "the economy will fail."
Rossi said he will take a bipartisan approach to governing, and will "seek out a philosophical majority rather than a partisan majority centered around fiscally conservative ideas."
If elected, Rossi promised to involve a different set of people in government.
"I get to do what no Republican governor has done in 28 years," he said. "If you've dealt with Olympia, you know it has been the same people shuffling back and forth in these agencies for a generation. They've been smoking each other's exhaust for a very long time. I get to appoint well over 1,000 people, from Blueberry Commission on up.
"Boards you've heard of, some you haven't a few that I haven't even heard of," Rossi continued. "The next governor will appoint a state Supreme Court justice, because Gerry Alexander will reach the mandatory retirement age. We can change the tone and tenor of state government."
Rossi lost the 2004 election by 127 votes, and he still isn't quite over it.
This year, however, a lot of the voter irregularities he and his supporters blame for this defeat have been corrected, and "465 unclaimed ballots are no longer floating around. That is a very good thing," Rossi said.
"Don't let anyone tell you that your vote doesn't count," he reminded the crowd. "The system is getting cleaned up. Is it perfect? No system is perfect. Is it better than it was? You bet it is better than it was or I wouldn't do this again. And your vote counts more in 2008 than it did in 2004. I'm the poster boy for 'every vote counts,' aren't I?"
Gregoire has reportedly scheduled one or more Kitsap County campaign appearances on Oct.11. For more information go to www.chrisgregoire.com.
Rossi is planning a public rally to take place in Silverdale during the week of Oct. 20 .

Preventing Colon Cancer?My father was just diagnosed with colon cancer. What can I do to reduce my risks?
Answer (Published 5/30/2005)
Colorectal cancer (cancer of the colon or rectum) is the third most common cancer diagnosed among Americans of both sexes. The American Cancer Society estimates that about 105,000 new cases of colon cancer and more than 40,000 cases of rectal cancer will be diagnosed in 2005. The good news is that both the incidence of the disease and the death rate from them are declining, thanks to both improved treatments and earlier diagnosis.

Start your 14-day free trial now - and start eating anti-inflammatory today!
One thing you can do to help reduce your risk is to cut back on or avoid eating red or processed meats. Although we have known for some time that high consumption of red meat raises the risk of colon cancer, results of a recent study showed that this is particularly true if you're also overweight and inactive, both of which are major risks for this disease. The study, which included nearly 149,000 adults between the ages of 50 and 74 who were followed for 10 years, was published in the Jan. 12, 2005 issue of the Journal of the American Medical Association. The results showed that people who ate the most red meat were 30 to 40 percent more likely to develop colon cancer than people who ate the least red meat; those who ate the most processed meats (including bacon, sausage, hot dogs, ham, and cold cuts) were 50 percent more likely to develop colon cancer and 20 percent more likely to develop rectal cancer than those who ate the least.
The researchers defined "high" amounts as three or more ounces of red meat per day for men and two or more ounces per day for women; high consumption of processed meats was one ounce eaten five to six days a week for men and two to three days per week for women. Those who ate red meat only a couple of times a week were in the lowest consumption group. In addition to red meat consumption, obesity and inactivity, other risk factors for colon cancer include a family history of the disease, a high-fat diet, high alcohol consumption, and smoking (smokers are 30 to 40 percent more likely than nonsmokers to die of colorectal cancer).
Beginning at age 50 (earlier, if you have a family history) everyone should be screened for colon cancer. The ACS recommends getting a stool blood test every year plus having a flexible sigmoidoscopy performed every five years. Other options include getting a double contrast barium enema every 5 to 10 years, or a colonoscopy every 10 years. You should discuss what is appropriate for you with your doctor.
In addition, I recommend eating plenty of fiber-rich foods, including fresh fruits and vegetables, as well as taking low dose aspirin – one baby aspirin a day (81 milligrams).

Shoshana Hebshi sues TSA and Fronteir over racial profiling
- From: news.com.au
- January 24, 2013
WHEN several men with large guns rushed onto a flight for Detroit, Shoshana Hebshi, 36, had no idea they were coming for her.
The Ohio resident was returning from a visit to her sister in September 2011 when armed men boarded the plane and arrested her. She was escorted off the Fronteir Airlines flight 623 in handcuffs after it landed on September 11. She was then taken to a cell, held for four hours and strip searched.
Why? Documents later showed that a Fronteir Airlines employee thought her name "sounded suspicious".
"Several men with very large guns and uniforms, very militaristic looking, they ran on the plane," she said. "They told everybody to … put their heads down, put their hands on the seat in front of them," Mssaid.
"I was thinking the whole time that maybe there's a fugitive on the plane. Maybe, you know, there's been a bomb scare; something's going on that's not right. But it never once crosses my mind that, you know, they're coming for me," she said.
Now Ms, a freelance journalist and mother of two who was born to a Jewish mother and Arab father, has decided to sue.
"The illegal arrest and strip search of Msis not simply a mistake made by an airline employee or government agency, but a predictable consequence of institutionalising racial stereotypes and mass suspicion as law enforcement tactics," Sarah Mehta, an attorney with the ACLU of Michigan, said.
Representatives from Frontier Airlines have maintained their employees did nothing wrong and that "there was no profiling of any kind associated with this incident other than that of unusual and suspicious behaviour," CBS News reported.
Ms . It spread like wildfire over the internet in 2011 and attracted comment from law enforcement veterans, constitutional lawyers and outraged citizens. detailed the story of her arrest on her blog
"This is what it looks like when 'the terrorists win' and we lose the long-term struggle to protect a free society," James Fallows of the Atlantic wrote.
Now we will have to wait to see whether Mswins and what the consequences of that will be.

Good on you. Take them to the cleaners. Discrimination in first world countries are far worse than developing countries. The Governments just justify it by developing laws to take away individual freedom.

Today it´s not just raining, its actually pouring, has been since last night.
When I put this outfit together last night I did not think it would be raining in the morning, thus the peep toe.
Try not to wear peep toe shoes when it´s raining, the yucky water between your toes does not feel good, specially starting off the day.
The "assemble" :
Brown Corduroy - now that I see it here - miniskirt.
Had I known in was this short I would not have worn it to work.
Forever 21 Flower Belt
White round neck t shirt
Green H&M cardigan
Liz Claiborne Bright yellow tote bag
Brown peep toe flats from Kenneth Cole Reaction
Since I am wearing the cardigan open to show the colorful belt I tie little bows on each side of the cardigan in order to prevent from it just hanging there and looking messy.

I have a 22-250 neck sizing die and was thinking about getting one for .223, but have found that neck sizing 22-250 may not be working out. I find that only about half of the 22-250 rounds that I have neck sized will eject easily and some need excessive pressure to chamber in a Rem 788. Anyone neck size these smaller calibers? If yes, how many reloads would you estimate before having to run brass through a F/L resizer? Thanks!

One of the best interviews with Bruce Springsteen I've ever read appears Sunday in The Guardian from the United Kingdom.
The talented Mark Hagen did the interview with Bruce last month in New Jersey.
They discuss politics, the new album, why Bruce wrote "Queen of the Supermarket" and various other topics. It you have some time,
have a read..

Yes, the Flying Monkey is named after those critters in "The Wizard of Oz." But the fun-loving regulars are hardly cowardly lions when it comes to partying.
The lively patio makes sure of that. The inside bar -- with its beautiful checkered woodwork and molded ceiling -- makes it comfy.
This round's on me, Toto.

"Imagine whisking through towns at speeds over 100 miles an hour, walking only a few steps to public transportation and ending up just blocks from your destination," the speaker rhapsodized.
No battling highway congestion. None of the inconvenience of airport screening, delayed take-offs and late arrivals and long bus or car rides to downtown destinations.
Dream on, you say.
But the idyllic, 100 mph travel option outlined by President Obama in unveiling his $13 billion, high-speed, mass transit plan actually is happening, right now.
"The problem is," Obama went on, "it's been happening elsewhere, not here."
In France, a country Americans deride as "old Europe," yesterday's news, the Paris-to-Lyon express runs over special trackage at up to 133 mph. And in Japan -- that backward little country we clobbered in World War II -- they have a bullet train that averages 180 mph. Our best, Amtrak's Acela express, lumbers along at about 75 mph on a good day.
How did we fall so far behind? Suburbanization is part of the reason. As cities emptied out in the years after World War II, mass transit -- indeed, rail travel in general -- became the step-child of national transportation planning, losing out to roads and airports in the annual battle for federal funds.
The car was king. This was especially true in the wake of President Eisenhower's decision to build the Defense Highway System. Jet aviation, with its speed and low fares, put the proverbial last nail in the mass transit's coffin.
Now Obama proposes to do for mass transit what Ike did for highways. The time is right. Indeed, it's long overdue.
King Car has become a shameless polluter -- one that makes us hostage to foreign oil suppliers in the bargain. Eisenhower's road system, now a half-century old, is showing its age everywhere, especially from the pounding of ever-larger trucks.
Too many of the most heavily-traveled roads in and around metropolitan areas are marked by potholes, creaking bridges and not enough lanes (or lane-width in some cases) to carry rush-hour traffic without time-consuming tie-ups.
Even the air transit system is approaching the saturation point despite the billions spent on its up-keep.
The network Obama envisions would have high-speed mass transit links on both coasts, in New England, around Chicago as a Midwest hub, and through Texas and along the Gulf Coast. New Jersey would be an early winner as some of the first money would flow to upgrading the Northeast Corridor service between Boston and Washington.
Locomotive technology for high-speed service here already exists. And up-to-speed passenger cars could be ready within a year. The major problem, especially in the Northeast Corridor, is upgrading trackage to accommodate high-speed service.
Such a system will take years to create. Moreover, it will cost hundreds of billions of dollars and produce a battle royal over the money -- pitting road and air interests (they'll want to divert some of the cash their way) against the rail lobby, and urban areas desperate for mass transit against western, rural and suburban interests with little sympathy for urban America. Obama's pitch for a national mass transit system is meant to give some of these non-urban interest a stake in his plan.
The $13 billion the president has earmarked for mass transit is no more than a down payment, but it's a good start. And better late than never.

A total of nine athletic teams at The University of Texas at Austin will receive public recognition awards for their latest multi-year NCAA Division I Academic Progress Rate (APR), the NCAA announced Tuesday (May 17). These teams include baseball, men's basketball, men's golf, men's tennis, women's golf, women's indoor track and field, women's outdoor track and field, softball and women's tennis.
The awards are given each year to teams scoring in the top 10 percent of all squads in their respective sport, based on their most recent multi-year Academic Progress Rates. The most recent APRs are multi-year rates based on scores from the 2006-07, 2007-08, 2008-09 and 2009-10 academic years. According to NCAA President Mark Emmert, top-performing teams this year posted APR scores ranging from 977 to a perfect 1,000. The number of teams in some sports may exceed 10 percent, depending on the number of perfect scores.
"We're really proud of our student-athletes," said DeLoss Dodds, men's athletics director. "They work as hard in the classroom as they do in their sport. To have nine of our 20 teams in the top 10 percent of the APR is an awesome achievement. This weekend, we also will have about 50 student-athletes graduate from this great university. Times are good."
"This is another example of our coaches recruiting the right kind of young people who are as dedicated to their academic success as they are their athletic training," said Chris Plonsky, women's athletics director. "We are really proud of our student-athletes, coaches and staff."
The NCAA tracks the classroom performance of student-athletes on every Division I sports team through its innovative APR, which provides an annual scorecard of academic achievement. The APR provides a real-time look at a team's academic success by tracking the academic progress of each student-athlete during the school year. The APR accounts for eligibility, retention and graduation in the calculation and provides a measure of each team's academic performance.
Full multi-year APRs for all Division I sports teams, including the teams receiving public recognition awards and penalties for low-performing teams, will be announced May 24.

Snacks & Meal Standards for After School ProgramsThis fact sheet identifies the federal reimbursable snack requirements as well as the state nutrition standards for snacks and meals offered in after school programs.
California Department of Education (CDE) Administered After School Programs. As of January 1, 2014, after school programs have the option to serve a snack, a meal, or both. All snacks provided to students in the CDE's After School Education and Safety (ASES) programs or the federally funded 21st Century Community Learning Centers (21st CCLC) programs must meet, at a minimum, the California nutrition standards identified below. If snacks are provided through one of the federally reimbursable meal programs, the food must meet both the federal requirements and the California nutrition standards. Federal Program Monitoring (FPM) reviewers will evaluate the after school program for compliance with the nutrition standards.
Assembly Bill (AB) 626 added a meal to the acceptable food options that must be offered to students in the CDE administered after school programs. Meals served in after school programs (ASPs) through the Child and Adult Care Food Program (CACFP) must meet the CACFP nutrition requirements to receive the federal reimbursement for the meals. For flexibility, the CACFP allows School Food Authorities to use either the CACFP or the National School Lunch Program meal pattern. AB 626 clarifies that after school meals are not required to comply with the California nutrition standards identified below. For more information on AB 626, visit Management Bulletin AB626: Afterschool Meals.
Non-CDE Administered After School Programs. If the after school program (ASP) is not funded through the ASES and/or 21st CCLC grants, compliance with the nutrition standards below are not required. However, we strongly encourage ASPs to serve food that meets the nutrition standards. If ASP snacks or meals are provided through a federally reimbursable meal program, the food must meet the federal requirements for that specific program.
California Education Code Requirements
(Education Code sections 49430-49431.7, 8423(c)3, 8482-8484.6)
- Snacks provided in ASES and 21st Century funded ASPs must meet all of the following standards. Each individual food item may not:
- Be deep fried, par fried, or flash fried by the entity preparing the food item
- Be deep fried, par fried, flash fried as part of the manufacturing process unless an "acceptable" oil is used such as canola, safflower, sunflower, corn, olive, soybean, peanut, or a blend of these oils, typically liquid at room temperature and are known for their positive cardiovascular benefit
- Contain artificial trans fat
- Contain more than 35 percent of its total calories from fat
- Contain more than 10 percent of its total calories from saturated fat
- Contain more than 35 percent of its total weight from sugar, including naturally occurring and added sugar
- Contain more than 175 calories per individual food item (for elementary students)
- Contain more than 250 calories per individual food item (for middle, junior high or high school students)
- The above standards do not apply to individually packaged portions of nuts, nut butters, seeds, eggs, individually packaged cheese, fruit, vegetables that have not been deep fried, and legumes.
- Whole grain products are highly recommended.
Only the following beverages may be served to students:
- Fruit-based drinks that are composed of no less than 50 percent fruit juice and have no added sweetener
- Vegetable-based drinks that are composed of no less than 50 percent vegetable juice and have no added sweetener
- Drinking water with no added sweetener
- One-percent-fat milk, nonfat milk, soy milk, rice milk, and other similar nondairy milk
- An electrolyte replacement beverage that contains no more than 42 grams of added sweetener per 20-ounce serving (at middle and high schools, only)
"Added Sweetener" - Any additive other than 100 percent fruit juice that enhances the sweetness of a beverage
"Deep fried" - A food item is cooked by total submersion in oil or fat
"Par fried" - A food item is fried to reach an internal temperature of 160 degrees Fahrenheit then is cooled to room temperature so that it may be refrigerated or frozen for future frying
"Flash fried" - A food item is quickly fried on both sides in oil with a temperature of 400 degrees Fahrenheit or higher
"Artificial Trans Fat" - A food contains artificial trans fat if the food contains vegetable shortening, margarine, or any kind of partially hydrogenated vegetable oil, unless…documentation…lists the trans fat content as less than 0.5 grams of trans fat per serving
Federal Reimbursable Snack Requirements
Federal Food and Nutrition Programs provide funding for snacks and meals served to ASP participants. ASPs may be able to receive reimbursement from one of three different food and nutrition programs administered by the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA). These include the National School Lunch Program Afterschool Snacks, the Child and Adult Care Food Program, or the Summer Food Service Program. ASPs may be able to receive reimbursement for a meal served under the at-risk after school meals component of the Child and Adult Care Food Program. For a comparison chart of the different elements of the programs visit After School Snack Facts.
We strongly encourage eligible ASPs to participate in at-risk after school meals in order to provide a larger quantity and potentially higher quality of food that better meets the nutritional needs of the students. If this is not possible, we encourage ASPs to use program funds saved through participation in a USDA reimbursable snack program to augment the snack with healthy items, such as fresh fruit and vegetables. Remember, ASPs can count the federal reimbursement dollars of the snack and meal programs as part of their required ASES match.
A reimbursable snack must contain full servings of any two of the following four food components:
- Fluid Milk – 8 ounces
- Fruit, Vegetable, or 100 percent Juice – ¾ cup
- Grain or Bread Product – 1 slice bread, for example
- Meat or Meat Alternate – 1 ounce meat, for example
For snacks, these components may be served in any combination, except that juice may not be served when milk is the only other component. Portion sizes for various age groups can be found on page 15 in the USDA Food Buying Guide, Introduction . Sample snack menus are available in the California Adolescent Nutrition and Fitness Program's (CANFIT) Healthy Snack Guide for Your After School Program .
A reimbursable meal must contain full servings of all of the following four food components:
- Fluid Milk – 8 ounces
- Fruits and/or Vegetables – ¾ cup (at least two different items must be served, totaling ¾ cup)
- Grain or Bread Product – 1 slice bread, for example
- Meat or Meat Alternate – 2 ounces meat, for example
For more details about the at-risk after school meal requirements, consult the USDA At-Risk Afterschool Meals Handbook (PDF). Step-by-step instructions to ensure that the meal complies with the California snack nutrition standards are available at the California AfterSchool Network .
Visit the California After School Resource Center (CASRC) Web site for more resources on healthy snacks, nutrition education, physical activity, and related workshop opportunities.
For more information about at-risk after school meals or the California Education Code requirements for snacks, contact Deborah Tamannaie, Nutrition Services Division, at 916-323-2473 or by e-mail at email@example.com.

Aren't mock drafts great? In one week, Syracuse University freshman Donte Greene has gone from No. 15 to No. 17 in ESPN NBA analyst Chad Ford's mock draft. And the NBA's pre-draft camp in Orlando doesn't start until later this week and Greene won't work out for any NBA teams until the Orlando camp ends.
Irrelevant or not, we can still have fun with the mocks. In his latest version, Ford has Greene going to the Toronto Raptors with the 17th pick in the draft. Here's what Ford wrote about the pick:
Greene has great upside as a combo forward who can do a little of everything. He's just a little raw. However, his ability to shoot and run the floor make this a home run of a pick this low in the draft. Robin Lopez is another real possibility here.
A week ago, Ford had the Phoenix Suns using the No. 15 pick on Greene. Now, however, Ford thinks Phoenix will take Kansas guard Brandon Rush. Ford explained putting Rush in where Greenen had been:
Donte Greene may have more upside, but the Suns are in it to win it and Rush should be able to step in and immediately play for the Suns. His combination of shooting, athleticism, defense and basketball IQ, along with a newly minted championship pedigree, will make him tough to pass up.
Greene was mentioned under Portland's selection at No. 13. Ford thinks Portland will take West Virginia's Joe Alexander.
Alexander could be the sleeper of the draft. His combination of size, athleticism and shooting ability has GMs drooling. He's still learning the game, but on a team like the Blazers, his versatility could become an immediate asset. Donte Greene is also a possibility here.
Greene's first comes up with regard to Milwaukee's pick at No. 8. He and Alexander get a notice, but Ford goes with UCLA's Russell Westbrook.
It's tough to project the Bucks right now. New GM John Hammond is ready to make changes, but where does he start? Their biggest need is at small forward, but this is probably too high for Donte Greene or Joe Alexander.

JACKSON, MI -- As the school year begins, students are giving their teachers shiny Michigan apples.
A year ago, those apples were from nearly any other state except this one, Michigan's crop ruined because of summer-like conditions in March followed by overnight freezes that ruined the buds.
"Last year was an epic year you hope you see only once in a lifetime, and growers twice my age had never seen it. It was a total crop loss for most everybody," said Steve Meckley of Flavor Fruit Farm in Somerset Center.
"Oh my goodness, this year is a delightful turnaround for sure," he added.
Ed Jasinowski of Sweet Seasons Orchard in Concord put it this way: "It's a night and day difference. I hope to never go through what we did last year."
Amazingly, this year's crop could be a record-breaker, according to the Michigan Apple Committee's website.
Michigan's apple growers will harvest about 30 million bushels of apples this year, compared to only about 3 million bushels of apples last year. Michigan is the third largest producer of apples in the United States, behind Washington and New York.
"Many factors have contributed to this large crop," said Diane Smith, executive director of the Michigan Apple Committee Smith in DeWitt. "Great weather this past spring and summer, including cool nights, plenty of rain as well as a good amount of sunshine certainly helped. In addition, a long dormant period allowed the trees to store energy to help create a large crop."
Despite the good weather, Meckley said he had plenty of fearful moments.
"I was concerned how the trees would react to last year's weather, because the fruit that hangs on the tree in the middle of summer stimulates the fruit buds for next year. So trees being dormant was a big concern," he said.
He laughed and added, "The man upstairs has it all under control, because these trees certainly came right back. After the blossoms were gone on some of the trees, it looked like grapes, not apples, they were so thick. We actually had to do some thinning."
What it means to consumers, said both growers, is prices will go back to what they were two years ago and the varieties of apples will be plentiful.
"Even I had sticker shock last year," said Jasinowski, who had to buy the majority of apples from growers in other states to supply his store in Concord and at the Farmer's Market in Jackson.
Sweet Seasons grows 35 varieties, but Jasinowski said Honeycrisp is still a favorite.
"Everything will be popping in the next couple weeks," said Jasinowski, with Paula Red, Northern Spy and McIntosh either already available or soon to be.
"People are looking forward to cider and doughnuts and all the trappings of fall," he said.
Flavor Fruit Farms, which grows 26 varieties of apples, will begin making cider in about two weeks, once sweeter apples are available to get the seasonal drink to the sugar content demanded by the establishment.
Meckley said consumers will have a range of varieties for the entire season, which ends at Christmas.
"You can't beat the old standbys like McIntosh and Jonathan, but people constantly are looking for new names, too. Honeycrisp, Jonagold, Ruby Johns and others are varieties that were grafted off old standbys to create new varieties," he said.

OK, so Barry Bonds is making San Francisco Giants tickets even more interesting as he approaches the 756 mark. Pitchers are lining up for the DL as Bonds comes to town, hoping to avoid the infamy of giving up the historic blast. But let's face it, Barry Bonds will always have a footnote next to his name in the minds of MLB fans. The spectre of steroids will never be erased and those seeking purity in their baseball tickets will be hard pressed to find it in Barry Bonds. If you disagree and thinks Bonds' record is as meaningful as any, post a comment.

Could someone please explain the difference between instance and occurrence property with an example?
In reply to kabalee:
Thank you for you answer kabee.
It is not still clear for me why it is useful to have different properties for a placed part called instance or occurrence. The Capture user guide gives also a blurred explanation on the topic like "the information "shines through"from the cache to the instance and occurences of the part property". It is resonable that different parts from different projects have different properties and these differences should be handled somehow. But would it be more beneficial to decide at the placement of the copied part which property is required and which is not. On the other hand what indicates that you are in occurance or instance mode?
Could someone shed some ligth on it?
In reply to tltoth:
For a flat design there is no much differences. Occurrences can be used to store backannotation information that overrides properties on an instance.
For a complex hierarchy design you can have an instance present on one schematic page, that can have different RefDes depending of the hierarchical path. For situations like this you need Occurrences that are unique in hierarchy while instance might not be unique.
Hope this helps.

Appeasement didn't work for Neville Chamberlain with Hitler. Appeasement didn't work for Presidents Millard Fillmore, Franklin Pierce or James Buchanan with The South. Why does President Obama think that it will work with radical Islamists?
Fillmore, Pierce and Buch an an are consistently ranked in the bottom five of the all-time worst presidents in our na tion's history. "Weak" and "ineffectual" are the words most often used to describe their presidencies and frankly I cannot think of any other way to describe President Obama's.
The world has become a more dangerous and unstable place than in any other time in history and now more than ever it cannot afford to have a weak and nearly bankrupt U.S.A.
I don't know for sure if Mitt Romney has it in him to become the next great leader that we so desperately need right now, but I know with absolute certainty that Barack Obama does not.

BIRMINGHAM, Alabama -- About 6,000 tax preparers in Alabama have yet to pass a required IRS competency test, and risk being unable to find a testing date if they don't immediately schedule the exam, the IRS announced today.
Tax preparers who are enrolled agents, certified public accountants and attorneys are exempt from the test, as are some non-signing preparers and those who do not prepared the Form 1040 series. Others must pass the test before Dec. 31.
Nationwide, more than 310,000 tax return preparers still need to pass the test, the IRS said in a prepared statement. The test is part of an IRS effort to increase oversight of tax preparers that includes new continuing education requirements and regulations for some preparers.

We're adding our voice to the clarion call from Michigan's Department of Environmental Quality - urging the United States Environmental Protection Agency to let go of its lingering objections to the proposed Marquette County Road 595.
In a letter Monday, DEQ Director Dan Wyant urged the EPA to remove its official objection to water quality permits, which would let the long-debated project move ahead.
We feel the in-depth examination of the plan over the past eight months, along with new compensatory efforts to preserve wetlands, should remove any remaining doubts about the road project and route.
The proposed new 21-mile, north-south County Road 595 would run from County Road AAA in Michigamme Township to U.S. 41 in Humboldt Township.
Proponents have said it would bring a myriad of uses and benefits, including creating a more direct route for Rio Tinto to truck ore from its Eagle Mine on the Yellow Dog Plains to its Humboldt Mill and giving better access to logging sites and recreational land.
Opponents, including the EPA, argue the proposal doesn't consider alternate routes which would have less impact on wetlands. The road would affect 25.81 acres of wetlands and require building 22 stream crossings.
In April, the EPA filed a formal objection to the permit. Then, in August, the road commission laid out a new wetlands mitigation plan for the road, which would preserve 1,576 acres - including 647 acres of wetlands - off the southeastern edge of the McCormick Wilderness.
This plan would extend the federal lands adjacent to the McCormick Wilderness and provide 26.6 acres of wetlands as mitigation for every 1 acre filled in by building County Road 595.
We think the economic benefits and environmental offsets created by this project represent a win for all parties involved.
The road commission has also clarified and expanded its route analysis, demonstrating the proposed route is the most practical and least environmentally damaging alternative.
This new and improved road commission plan has state officials confident they'll soon be in a position to issue a permit.
But, now it's up to the EPA. If the federal agency continues to object, it may well scuttle the whole project. The MDEQ would have 30 days to issue a permit that addresses the objections or to deny the permit. After that, authority to issue the required Clean Water Act permit would fall to the Army Corps of Engineers and the application process would restart.
The DEQ wants the EPA to make its decision by Oct. 1, because time is running out. Beyond that date, the possibility of funding for building the road from Rio Tinto would likely be lost.
The mining outfit hasn't formally committed to pay for building the road, but has said it would provide the money if permits were granted and the work was begun by May 2013.
If the EPA withdraws its objection, the MDEQ could issue the permit and work on the road could start.
It's getting down to the wire and we hope the EPA clears away the last roadblocks for this important project.

EUGENE -- Whenever that mystery start date of his head-coaching career arrives, there is one aspect of the job that Chip Kelly should have no problem handling.
Kelly, Oregon's second-year offensive coordinator, has apparently mastered the art of the pregame pep talk.
"He's one of the best inspirational speech givers that we have," Oregon quarterback Nate Costa said. "He fires the guys up. He's a smaller guy, but when he gets fired up you can see the intensity in his eyes. He gets everybody going pretty good."
Costa was among the few Oregon football players at the Casanova Center on Tuesday following the news about Kelly becoming the eventual successor to Oregon football coach Mike Bellotti.
Three days earlier in Corvallis, Costa spoke optimistically that Oregon would find a way to keep Kelly, but wasn't sure if that would be realistic given the nationwide reputation his coach has earned. So there was considerable relief from the injured quarterback on Tuesday when he found out that Kelly wouldn't be interviewing for other jobs in the near future.
"This is something I'm a fan of," Costa said. "I think Coach Bellotti knows what kind of mind Coach Kelly has and the type of person he is and that he'll be deserving of a position like that when the time comes."
Kelly, 45, was hired by Oregon in February 2007 after spending 14 seasons at the University of New Hampshire, his alma mater. He was offensive coordinator for the final eight seasons with the Division I-AA Wildcats, averaging more than 400 yards of offense a game in seven of those seasons.
At the time of his hire, Bellotti called Kelly "a perfect fit for what we're doing presently and in the future in terms of the spread-option attack." It didn't take long for the Oregon players to learn that Kelly was also a perfect fit in terms of how he related to the athletes he coached.
Senior running back Jeremiah Johnson said the excitement that Kelly brings to practice every day is contagious, especially during the rigors of fall camp. That enthusiasm is amplified considerably on game days.
"Oh man, when it gets close to game time, it's like he just drank 30 Red Bulls," Johnson said. "He's always on the edge of his seat and he always has us on the edge of our seats. I think when he becomes a head coach, he'll be able to bring that energy to the whole team."
Kelly's affable personality has helped him connect with top-level recruits across the nation. Freshman quarterback/receiver Chris Harper remembers being immediately impressed with Kelly when meeting him at the beginning of his senior year in high school in 2007 in Wichita, Kan.
But Harper was most impressed with the high-octane spread offense that Kelly orchestrated last season in Eugene.
"There's not as much verbiage in his version of the spread," Harper said. "You don't have to think as much, you just get to go out and play. And since you don't have to think as much, you can play faster. He's a pretty big part of why I'm here."
Of course, that minimized-thinking part does not apply to the daily quarterback meetings Kelly runs. Harper learned that the hard way in August, when he was sitting out because of an injury and made the mistake of letting his mind drift.
"I got my little intro to Coach Kelly in fall camp," Harper said, laughing. "I wasn't practicing so I was dozing off a little and I got a little talking-to. He'll only yell every now and then, when he expects more of you. He's always thinking, thinking, thinking and you always have to be on your toes with him because you never know what he's going to say to you."
Oregon players were told of the Kelly and Bellotti succession plan through an e-mail Tuesday, with some acknowledging a little bit of confusion about the situation.
"It's kind of a weird thing," Harper said. "I don't know if anybody thinks Bellotti is going to leave any time soon and even though (Kelly) is the head coach in waiting, that doesn't necessarily mean he still can't leave."
Regardless of what happens, the players don't expect this to be a distraction as they prepare for a probable Holiday Bowl berth in San Diego on Dec. 30. They're enjoying some rare days off before reconvening for their first bowl practice on Friday.
"I'm pretty sure this news is going to rack a couple of minds at first, but when everybody gets the full understanding of what's going on, it'll be back to normal again," Johnson said. "Whatever they choose to do, if this may be Coach B's last game or if it takes a couple years, we're all for it. We all just got to sit back and see what happens."
Added UO senior defensive tackle Cole Linehan: "Nothing's changed ... for now."

When a pullet begins laying eggs, it's a lot of fun. At first, the eggs are miniature, off-colored, and sometimes even mutated (I've seen two eggs "fused" into one when I was kid raising chickens). And although we haven't yet witness a mutated egg from our pullets, we have definitely noticed small and off-colored ones!
Here's a picture of one of our pullets' eggs (left) next to a store-purchased brown egg (right). Quite a difference! I believe by the time our pullets are laying hen eggs, they will be a darker brown as opposed to their current tannish color.
Here are the eggs hatched open. The one on the left is our pullet's and the one on the right is the grocery store egg. Besides the volume, do you notice the differences? Take a look at how much clearer the white of the pullet's egg is and how much more yellow the pullet's yolk is? This is a perfect illustration of how store-bought eggs are treated for lengthened preservation (by the way, the purchased egg I used for illustration was labeled organic, yet was still apparently treated). It not only detracts from it's appearance, but the alterations also make grocery store eggs less nutritious. You can read more about the nutrition of store-bought versus home-grown eggs via this post by The Thrifty Mama.

BIRMINGHAM, Alabama – A second former Serra Nissan employee has been indicted on charges that he and others falsified documents in order to get loans for customers and increase sales.
Gerald R Shepard is charged with one count of conspiracy to defraud the U.S. government and four counts of bank fraud in an indictment issued by a federal grand jury on Aug. 27. The indictment was unsealed Tuesday.
Shepard is to be arraigned on the charges Sept. 11 before U.S. Magistrate Judge John H England III.
Prosecutors on Aug. 28 asked that an arrest warrant for Shepard be recalled because after it was issued he came forward to cooperate with the government's investigation, according to court documents.
Shepard's attorney, John Michael Barclay, declined comment Wednesday.
Shepard is the second former Serra Nissan employee to be charged in a federal probe.
On July 24, Abdul Islam Mughal, 48, a former sales manager at Serra Nissan, pleaded guilty to one count of conspiring with others, including Serra Nissan salesmen, general managers, sales managers and finance managers, to falsify loan documents in order to defraud customers, Nissan North America and financial institutions and sell more cars.
Shepard was a sales manager at Serra Nissan on Center Point Parkway and, along with another manager, supervised the entire sales process, according to the indictment.
It was a part of the conspiracy, according to the indictment, that Shepard and others conspired to increase the number of cars sold by fraudulent means; inflated the prices of vehicles; falsified documents regarding who the actual buyers were; and misrepresented vehicle values "in order to increase profits to themselves."
Attorneys for Serra Nissan-VW on Thursday released a statement regarding the charges against Shepard and Mughal.
"Serra Nissan-VW has proudly served the Birmingham community for more than thirty years," according to the statement. "We consider integrity a guiding principle of our business."
"We have been notified of charges against a former employee who is accused of failing to live up to the values that are the foundation of our longtime success. When these allegations first surfaced last year in charges against another former employee, we launched our own investigation and cooperated fully with authorities. We also reviewed our procedures and implemented additional safeguards to ensure that we are operating fully in accordance with our guiding principles.
"News of these allegations, while disappointing, should not be viewed as a reflection of our company or as a reflection of all of our employees who have always conducted themselves with honesty and honor," according to the statement from Serra's attorneys. "We will continue to meet or exceed our customers' expectations and needs, and we will do so with complete integrity."

What do you think of this nail color?
I saw it in The Stir - Funny thing is that I very nearly had my toenails painted this color last week when I got a pedicure!
Model's Nail Color Steals the Scene in This Fendi Ad
Fendi's fall ad campaign has gotten my attention -- not because of the bags (which are beautiful, as always), but because of model Anja Rubik's nail color.
I love the idea of burnished gold nail polish for fall, don't you?
Find out how to get the look for yourself (for under five dollars!) -- after the jump!
Incidentally, this Fendi campaign was shot by Karl Lagerfeld. Interesting, don't you think?
But onto the nailcolor!
Revlon nail polish in Gold Coin (Walgreens, $4.99) is an exact copy of Anja's look.
SpaRitual Nail Lacquer in Gold Digger (SkinStore.com, $8) is also a nice color.
Justine Bieber fans might opt for this Nicole by OPI shade from his nail polish collection, called Not a Gold Bigger (What does that even mean?!) (Ulta, $7.99).
I love the idea of a wearing a muted metallic shade on my nails for fall. It's not as in-your-face as the bolder metallics of summer and it makes for a great go with anything neutral shade.
What do you think of this look? Will you wear it this fall?
I have Sally Hansen GO FOR THE GOLD on right now and its my fall winter color most days other than sometimes using Essie mirror metallics in penny talk which is rose gold i love.

Told me I had crohns disease in 2007 when I had good insurance. Had to quit my job and get on state insurance then a miracle happened... he told me I no longer had crohns and I was fine. So I guess if you have state insurance he doesn't want to deal with you. Very unprofessional. Now I'm stuck to my home with constant diarrhea and pain. Thanks Dr. Narang
They don' come any better the Dr. Narang
I called Dr. Narang's office because I needed a second opinion on whether or not I could have a lump removed through colonoscopy or whether it needed surgery. He told me he felt he could do it without surgery and he did successfully. Obviously, I was very pleased not to have part of my colon removed as the first gastroenterologist suggested. Also, I found out in the hospital before the colonoscopy that most of the doctors and other medical staff see him as needed because he's so good and trusted amongst their community.
I was at hospital for lower GI bleeding for 8 hrs. Referred me to this office and called the next morning. They could have cared less. Said it would be two weeks before anyone could see me. Are we already part of the National Health care bill?
Dr. Narang has an all around great staff. He is gentle in his examinations and takes plenty of time. A

Meat purchasing habits indicate price, convenience top factors in choosing meat; organic and natural regain popularity.
More About:
Price and value continue to lead meat purchasing decisions, according to the American Meat Institute (AMI) and the Food Marketing Institute's (FMI) annual Power of Meat survey.
Though price is a top factor in selecting meats, it is losing ground, giving way to convenience and organic meats as high-income shoppers ease up on money-saving measures.
As demonstrated by a greater interest in heat-and-eat and ready-to-eat meats, as well as the ease/time of preparation, convenience meals are rising to the top. This category includes under-20-minute meals and one-pot meals.
The latest survey, conducted by 210 Analytics, LLC, was commissioned jointly by AMI and FMI with sponsorship by Sealed Air's Cryovac Food Packaging Division. The survey details the findings of a national online poll of 1,425 consumers conducted in December 2012 and was released this week at the 2013 Annual Meat Conference in Nashville, TN.

Why You Won't Be the Person You Expect to Be
The New York Times:
When we remember our past selves, they seem quite different. We know how much our personalities and tastes have changed over the years. But when we look ahead, somehow we expect ourselves to stay the same, a team of psychologists said Thursday, describing research they conducted of people's self-perceptions.
They called this phenomenon the "end of history illusion," in which people tend to "underestimate how much they will change in the future." According to their research, which involved more than 19,000 people ages 18 to 68, the illusion persists from teenage years into retirement.
"Middle-aged people — like me — often look back on our teenage selves with some mixture of amusement and chagrin," said one of the authors, Daniel T. Gilbert, a psychologist at Harvard. "What we never seem to realize is that our future selves will look back and think the very same thing about us. At every age we think we're having the last laugh, and at every age we're wrong."

I don't know, I saw myself as an old man with athritis of the hands not being able to pick anything up… im 20..
It is a coincidence that on my birthday yesterday I was reflecting how every decade of my life since I am born had a different story than I wished to tell the world. My perception about myself and what I am capable of, the very self concept was so differently defined to my surprise, that I admit the limitations of my perception of self. My true self, if I may term so, seems more wiser to assert its full potential much more expansively, responding to environmental ande life context much much better than I would have perceived. I am 74 yrs and I want to say I am growing younger if my perception ought not to be so.

St. Augustine's hosts festive holiday bazaar
St. Augustine's in-the-Woods Episcopal Church will hold its grand and festive holiday bazaar from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. today in the church's new parish hall at 5217 Honeymoon Bay Road in Freeland.
Shoppers may also enjoy a delicious lunch of homemade soup, bread and pie while at the bazaar.
The St. Augustine bazaar is an eagerly awaited event during the holiday season, featuring a dazzling display of (mostly) homemade gifts, decorations, textiles, tableware, jams, jellies and baked goods. All the items will be "gift-ready" — wrapped, ribboned and ready to be mailed, presented or placed under the tree.
A special feature of this year's bazaar will be tours of St. Augustine's new parish hall and office complex, which was completed earlier this year at a cost of more than $2 million. Tours will highlight the many "green" features of the new building which were incorporated to reduce energy usage and resource consumption. The addition was designed by Coupeville architect Stig Carlson, who will be a guest at the holiday bazaar.
