Serves 2, maybe 3, as main dish
This is a variation of the lemon risotto recipe. And it falls into the second class of recipes—the ones I use when I have some leftovers or too much of something. Granted, I never have filet of salmon lying around, but I often do have some cooked asparagus in the fridge.
1 medium onion, diced (a little more than 1 cup)
4 tablespoons butter
1 lemon
1 cup arborio rice
2 cups chicken broth
2 cups water
8 to 12 spears cooked asparagus, cut into 1-inch lengths
8 ounces salmon filet, skin and bones removed and cut into 1-inch pieces
3/4 cup grated parmesan cheese
Extra parmesan to garnish each dish
1) Stew the onion in butter over medium heat until soft, then zest the lemon and stir it with the onion.
2) Stir in the rice to coat all the grains of rice with butter.
3) Start adding broth 1/2 cup at a time. Adjust the heat so the broth just simmers. The broth will reduce and thicken into a sort of gravy. Every time that happens, add another half cup, then add the water half a cup at a time. Stir frequently and continue until the rice is just about done. Meanwhile, squeeze the lemon and add a couple tablespoons along with some broth. (Save the last bit of lemon juice to season the dish with at the end.)
3a) Cut the asparagus and salmon into 1-inch pieces.
4) When the rice is just a tad underdone, stir in the parmesan cheese. Season with salt, pepper, and lemon juice. Let it get piping hot, then...
5) Take the pan off the heat and stir in the asparagus and salmon. Cover the pot and let it sit for 5 minutes. By then the salmon is usually cooked, but it may need a minute more. Serve with grated or shaved parmesan over the top. (Don't stir very much or you'll break up the fish.)
Lemon Zest:
As you probably know, this is the outermost part—the yellow part—of the peel. If you have a zester, you can simple zest the lemon right into the pan. If you don't have this nifty tool, use a potato peeler to peel off the yellow part and mince it with a knife. (I'm not a fan of grating lemon zest because I always scrape my knuckles, but if you like that method, go for it.)

Visual Impact by Terence Wright
Book DescriptionFrom the office to domestic interiors to shops, images surround us in modern life. The internet has increased this visual onslaught exponentially. Is there a systematic order to this seemingly endless array of pictures and depictions? Looking at picture-making traditions around the world, the author demonstrates how schemes of depiction are ordered throughout all ages and across all cultures. Drawing on a wide range of examples - from painting and drawing to film, photography and the Web - Visual Impact analyzes the theory and practice of visual representation. Pictures and images provide a cognitive context through which people can explore and understand their world. They frame and shape daily life. By considering the techniques and systems that inform visual displays, the author examines how cultural values and traditions shape particular visual styles. Drawing on the growing field of visual anthropology, Visual Impact sets image making in an historical and global context, and uses it as a window for exploring the human condition at a deeper level. Anyone interested in the cultural role of art, film, the internet and interactive media will find this book an exciting and stimulating read.

The Sentinels: Fortunes of War is the first book from Gordon Zuckerman. It is about six economics doctoral students who decide that the evils created by the Nazis must stop. Their way to combat this is to steal millions of dollars worth of gold from them. It's a book with many fine qualities, such as a wonderful cover design created by Greenleaf Book Group LLC, but it is not a good book by any stretch of the word.
Mr. Zuckerman had a great premise for a story: steal Nazi gold to halt their war effort. It's noble; it sounds fun; its setting is one of the most interesting of the modern age. And yet at every turn the book fails on that premise. Its nobility is destroyed by the sheer wealth the group already has. They're the sons and daughters of the wealthiest people around. Their wealth and power of influence is such that they can get access to hidden dock fortresses, get a large detail of the President's Secret Service to guard them for two years, and use the US military as their own personal taxi system around the world.
What could they possibly want with that gold? They want to make wine and use that to supply them with the capital to steal from other nations and corporations that they deem unrighteous. The question of that morality is never brought up nor is their Power Cycle idea (the way they determine if people are using their wealth inappropriately) ever explored or questioned. The book's enjoyment factor is extremely limited since it takes 1/3 of the book before the plot appears and when it arrives we mourn its existence because it's painfully dull.
In one of the book's most unintentionally hilarious moments Jacques Roth (our lead protagonist, international playboy, master athlete, and brilliant mind who's never seen women as real people) meets Natalie, a beautiful expert actress in London.
Natalie looked into Jacques' eyes and said, "In case you were wondering, I recognized you from your football — excuse me, soccer — playing days. As a young girl, I accompanied my brothers to most of England's matches. Whenever they played the French, I waited for the sight of the tall, handsome captain. Of course, I always hoped the best for England," she laughed. "But you were my prince. Then, eight years ago, you suddenly disappeared — no more newspaper articles, no more soccer games. I lost track of you. So tell me, prince, where have you been?"
This paragraph is particularly bad, but its problems reappear throughout the novel. Each character speaks in this exposition heavy manner with no character voice of their own. The brain recoils at the fact that a Englishwoman and Frenchman would call football soccer, especially since one of them played the game years back. Of course, that point needs addressing since Jacques would have to have played the game in his teens and, even if he was a soccer prodigy, how did he make captain of a professional team? And, while we're at it, is Mr. Zuckerman insinuating that all of England and all of France only have one team apiece? Of course, Natalie's stalker tendencies do not freak Jacques out, and they sleep together about an hour later because they're in love. That is until Jacques eyes an old friend and then his inner monologues lament, "How could I, a playboy of wealth who's never seen women as real people, be in love with two women!" This ill-conceived character trait continues through the rest of the novel until you wish either girl would grow a spine (and a brain attached to it) and bash the whining idiot's head with the nearest blunt object.
The reader cannot care about any of the characters since their wealth and status lift them above any worry or care. If they want something they have it! They're a group of pampered drunk brats. Near the end of the novel three characters share two bottle of champagne and then drive to a restaurant to have two more bottles of wine. In nearly three hundred pages these six people go through tens of thousands of dollars worth of alcohol. These super rich drunk kids then wax philosophically about how selfish industrialist ruin the world and that they must stop them.
This is not a final draft of a story. It's a semi-promising rough draft. There is no tension and no real antagonist to speak of. The book cares more about dwelling on which of the Six Sentinels are sleeping with each other and other poorly written soap opera elements. There is no thrilling "steal the gold" moment since they duplicate bonds after a money transfer.
The closest any character gets to action is when a mercenary group called Samson hunts them, but they're the least frightening mercenaries I've ever read. Their attempts to stop six whiny pampered brats make the Keystone Kops look like effective. When they do kidnap one of their group they just hold them in a cell and do not torture them for information. At one point, Jacques is brought into a regulatory hearing about the duplicate bonds he had forged. He walks in and spouts off two paragraph long diatribes and walks out of the hearing as though he walked out of the kitchen without being told he could leave!
The cover tells me this is the first in a series of Sentinel books. So I'm going to offer Mr. Zuckerman some advice. Work on character motivation and try to make at least one of the six likable. Work on your plotting and pacing because no matter how well-done the character work is, if they're not doing something, then they're boring. As a general rule between first draft and final draft you should have removed a third of the pages, and this book could lose a fair deal more. As-is, this is a very disappointing, boring, and characterless start to a series, and I cannot say I look forward to revisiting these characters.Powered by Sidelines

Cement prices are likely to go up after the government's proposed hike in excise duty on the building material from 10% to 12%.
The industry was of the view that a reduction in the excise duty would have encouraged it to create more capacity and bring the sector at par with other core and infrastructure sectors. However, when contacted, cement companies declined to comment on whether they would pass on the increased burden on the customers immediately or not, but almost all agree that the move would give an upward push to prices.
The Finance Minister in the Budget for 2012-13 also rationalised the excise duty structure on cement. "The graded retail sales price slabs for the purpose of charging of duty on cement manufactured and cleared in packaged form are being done away with," Mukherjee said.

Progress marches on, and that goes for the most popular language on the web as well. In PHP's case though, progress seems to be jogging along at a good clip. Exactly one year to the day when PHP 7.0 was released, the Core has given us another gift, PHP 7.1! A HUGE THANK YOU to everyone who contributed to PHP... [..]

Eric Mann reinvents the PHP Session with Sessionz
Things that end in "Z" instead of "S" are cool, right? Let's hope so because Eric Mann has released a new project that looks pretty cool. Click on in and I'll explain. While it is not exactly middleware, Eric Mann's new project Sessionz is "middleware inspired". Eric recently released Sessionz and announced it on his blog [..]
Cal rants about paying the price for Open Source
Those that know me know that my writings online have migrated from tutorials on PHP to "Old Man Rants" about PHP, Open Source, and Tech in general. (I say migrated, other say degraded…whatever) Recently I went on a rant about Open Source for SitePoint. Yes, I am self promotion my own writing here, deal with it. This topic is important....

Scheduling ElePHPants (DateTime math is HARD)
It was while I was creating the 100th or so cronjob to do some very similar to the other 99 that I thought, "Hey! Why not just put all this in a database and check it once a minute instead?" I mean c'mon, working with MySQL is soooooo much easier than working with cron. Besides, a lot of these jobs...
Questioning Interview Questions
"How would you update 10,000 servers located on the moon?" This was actually the question asked of me when I interviewed with Google. I'm not sure if the point was to figure out exactly what methods would work, or just to make the interviewer feel smugly superior. Either way, I hate these kind of pointless questions. [..]
A Reverse Debugger for PHP…wait…WHAT?
Honestly, when I originally tweeted this out I really wasn't 100% sure what it did. You never know when you see things like "reverse debugger". It's one of those "I understand the words separately…" type of things. Then I watched the short video. HO-LY CRAP! Seriously, it is exactly what it says, it allows you to [..]
"PHP 7 is pretty rad!" – Tumblr
So the Tumblr Engineering team upgraded to PHP 7 recently. I think it went well. :) They posted about their experience on their Engineering team's blog, PHP 7 at Tumblr. Recently, in a cross-team effort, we upgraded our full web server fleet from PHP 5 to PHP 7. The whole upgrade was a fun project with some very cool [..]
"Saya akan mengesyorkan RYNET kepada Komuniti PHP kerana ianya satu-satunya syarikat tunggal di Malaysia yang sah untuk melatih programmer mahir dalam PHP dan juga mempunyai pelatih yang berpengalaman untuk mengajar PHP dengan lebih jelas bukan sekadar teori, tetapi juga secara praktikal try and error..."
"It feels great to be one of the 15,000 elite ZEND certified PHP Engineers in the world. I feel honored that being in the Malaysian government entity myself, there are not many programmers who has taken this certification program and to be a pioneer, it's a gift.."
"It's a fantastic test and just preparing for it is a great experience in reacquainting (or just plain acquainting) oneself with many aspects of the language."
"The ZCE certification ensures that our clients and prospects have access to first-class software development as standard, whilst allowing Magma Digital Ltd to fulfil our quality assurance programme. We like to support and encourage our developers to continue in professional and personal development by undertaking the ZCE exam."
Since I got the certification, I have received interviews in some of the biggest PHP based companies in Barcelona and I now have job as a developer in one of the big online shops, so all the study was really worth it!
The ZCE Certification demonstrates that the development team keeps in step with the latest PHP technology. And it helps to show our customers and prospects that we have highly qualified PHP developers where it matters most of all - their critical project

Marine Fighter Attack Squadron-333 (VMFA-333), also known as both "Bengal Tigers' and 'Shamrocks', was assigned with Marine Aircraft Group 31, 2d Marine Aircraft Wing, Fleet Marine Forces, Atlantic (FMFLANT), stationed at the Marine Corps Air Station, Beaufort, South Carolina. The squadron area, including the enlisted barracks, was affectionately known as either 'Shamrock Country', 'Tiger Country'. The squadron was the subject of a fictionalized movie named "The Great Santini", starring Robert Duvall. This is when the squadron was equipped with the McDonnell-Douglas F4J Phantom aircraft. The Shamrocks later flew the F4 Super J, F4S and F18 aircraft. The squadron was disbanded after the Gulf War, in 1992.

Apple has not notified customers, and is reportedly deleting posts on its discussion board trying to convey information regarding the situation.

Jobs rips Eisner, Disney; primed for Disney CEO?
Reuters reports that Apple CEO Steve Jobs ripped into Disney CEO Michael Eisner on Wednesday evening "with all the intensity of an unrepentant sharkAlthough professing some regret over Pixar's decision to end the company's distribution deal with Disney, Jobs made clear his disdain for Eisner and much of the rest of the Disney organization, and made it clear there was minimal chance of extending Pixar's current deal with Disney, under which Disney will distribute two more films over the next two years." Meanwhile, Ex-Disney Board members Stanely Gold and Roy Disney think Jobs would be just dandy as the head of Disney.
Redstone offers Panther updates, new edu pricing

Apple pushes QuickTime for 3G phone networks
QuickTime has a bright future, according to Frank Casanova II, senior director of QuickTime, who was in Asia meeting with local telcos to drum up support for use of the core technology in 3G networks expected later this year: "QuickTime was already recognized as the standard for video streaming and music CDs, he said. The multimedia architecture, launched in 1991, had also become part of a file format for the GSM network. QuickTime was also MPEG-4 ready, a format that developers use to create video clips for 3G handsets. Japan's NTT DoCoMo and KDDI were among them."
BW: OS X security does good job at protecting users
BusinessWeek examines Mac OS X's security: "While it's still very early in the game -- OS X is only three years old -- I submit that Apple has actually done a good job of protecting its unsuspecting user base. The Mydoom virus underscores one key difference between the two systems. OS X comes with a default setting that requires a login name and password before it allows any new software to be installed on a given computer. With this default, no Mac user needs to worry about inadvertently clicking on e-mail attachments carrying virus software."
iTunes leaves classical music fans singing the blues
The Wall Street Journal writes "iTunes site leaves classical music fans singing the blues," noting organizational and searching issues: "But there's bad news, too, and not just bad--disastrous, even disgraceful. The music that showed up when I searched for 'Beethoven' wasn't properly sorted, so the only way I found those Ninth Symphonies was by watching them appear, apparently at random, as I browsed, with increasing disbelief, through 1,500 Beethoven tracks. I stopped after 1,500, but in fact there's still more Beethoven with, for all I know, more Ninths buried there."
Apple Bluetooth 1.5 supports headsets, printers
Apple today released Bluetooth 1.5 for Mac OS X, which provides support for Bluetooth enabled headsets and printers: "Headsets must support the Bluetooth headset profile and printers must support the Bluetooth HCRP profile.

KB: AirPort/AOL issues; iPod Disk Mode/reset...
Apple Knowledge Base roundup: Apple notes that an updated version of AOL Sofware may be needed to access some websites when using an AirPort to connect to AOL; another article describes how to put an iPod/iPod mini into Disk Mode: "Press and hold the Play/Pause and Menu buttons until the Apple/iPod logo appears. This resets iPod." Apple also offers a brief overview of iPod controls. Finally, Apple acknowledges that opening an AppleWorks template file in the Finder creates a copy of the file.
Apple CFO Anderson will retire, join Board

Anderson, Apple�s executive vice president and CFO, will retire on June 1, 2004 and Peter Oppenheimer, Apple�s senior vice president of Finance and corporate controller, will succeed Anderson as CFO at that time.

Cirrus creates Lightning-headphone dev kit
Apple supplier Cirrus Logic has introduced a MFi-compliant new development kit for companies interested in using Cirrus' chips to create Lightning-based headphones, which -- regardless of whether rumors about Apple dropping the analog headphone jack in its iPhone this fall -- can offer advantages to music-loving iOS device users. The kit mentions some of the advantages of an all-digital headset or headphone connector, including higher-bitrate support, a more customizable experience, and support for power and data transfer into headphone hardware. Several companies already make Lightning headphones, and Apple has supported the concept since June 2014. http://bit.ly/29giiZj

Apple employees testing wheelchair features
New features included in the forthcoming watchOS 3 are being tested by Apple retail store employees, including a new activity-tracking feature that has been designed with wheelchair users in mind. The move is slightly unusual in that, while retail employees have previously been used to test pre-release versions of OS X and iOS, this marks the first time they've been included in the otherwise developer-only watchOS betas. The company is said to have gone to great lengths to modify the activity tracker for wheelchair users, including changing the "time to stand" notification to "time to roll" and including two wheelchair-centric workout apps. http://bit.ly/2955JDa

June Spencer (Peggy) at 92
I recently had the great pleasure of talking to June Spencer, who plays Peggy Woolley, for an exclusive video interview (below).
June is 92 but has the vitality of a woman 20 or even 30 years younger. She was in the very first episode of The Archers in 1951 and is still doing wonderful work on air.
With a sense of humour that Peggy is sadly lacking, June remembers those early years and some highlights of her Archers career, including Jennifer's illegitimate pregnancy and Jack and Peggy's wedding.
And in real life, she talks about meeting the Queen, the truth about receiving the Freedom of the City of London, and failing to be kissed by Christopher Timothy.
She also relates the touching tale of her courtship by a dashing young Army officer, and the tragic blighting of their final married years by Alzheimer's. Of course she re-lived this time as an actor, when her radio husband Jack contracted the disease.
I can only hope I'm half as lively if I ever get to her great age.
Keri Davies is an Archers (and Ambridge Extra) scriptwriter and web producer.

Hard to say but I'd probably say yes, unless you are really pushing your foot into the end. Length may not be the issue here, but actually the width, as if the vamp isn't tight enough on your foot then width is probably the factor. Sizing is very hard to get right, as many times a 10C will be the almost the same length as a 9E just narrower etc.
In the time when I started to expand my shoe collection but was still growing in my late teens to early twenties it took a few years of experimentation in different makers to fully determine my actual size in most of them, especially the width as not many manufacturers stock different widths to try on so easily. It was finally discovered in GJ Cleverley, who are keen on narrower lasts, my true size afterall and what had been the problem was actually the width of my shoes not the length. So the lesson is to examine all aspects of fit not just the length.
A good indicator for whether your shoes are too big in length would be wear on the back of your socks as that would be evidence of heel slippage.

Professionally, he was a past member of the Pennsylvania Funeral Directors Association and served as the past president of Luzerne County Funeral Directors Association.
In addition to his parents, John and Josephine Grontkowski, he was preceded in death by his first wife, the former Helen M. Chepolis, who passed away on September 07, 1982.
John is survived by his wife, the former Dorothy Pish, who currently resides in Scottsdale, Arizona; his daughters, Katherine and her husband, William Malig, of Nanticoke; Susan and her husband, Don Tartaglio, of Scottsdale, Arizona; Margaret and her husband, Miguel Gomez, of Stroudsburg; his sister, Dorothy Stetson, of Brunswick, Maine.
The funeral will be conducted on Friday, Nov. 9, 2012, at 9:30 a.m. from the Grontkowski Funeral Home, P.C., 51-53 West Green Street, Nanticoke, followed by a Mass of Christian Burial to be celebrated at 10 a.m. in St. Faustina Roman Catholic Parish, 520 South Hanover Street, Nanticoke, with the Reverend James Nash, Pastor, officiating.

A really funny movie with Ben Stiller and Robert Deniro. Stiller plays the nurse boyfriend of Deniro's daughter. The movie is about Stiller meeting his girlfriend's parents but her father (Deniro) doesn't like him very much.
