I loved this recipe! I added pecans and cinnamon. I added enough to my own liking, and I used fresh strawberries. I chopped the strawberries and mushed them with my hands leaving them chunky. This bread was sweet, moist, and very flavorful! Definitely going to be making this again. :)
I baked this bread today. I threw in a handful of mini-chocolate chips since I had them laying around. The bread is good, very moist, but my sliced strawberries didn't blend in, and left huge smooshy parts. My family still loved it. But next time, I will make sure the strawberries are in smaller pieces.
I was not overly thrilled with this bread. First of all, I baked it for about 85 minutes because it just didn't seem to be cooked all the way. I feel confident that it did end up cooking through, but it still seemed soft/too moist in parts of the bread due to the strawberries.

Summary : Encounter the world's greatest concentration of polar bears as they gather along Hudson Bay waiting for the ice to freeze. On the outdoor platform of our Polar Rover, the chill Arctic air feels invigorating. But not as much as the sight of the huge polar bear that wanders up alongside. Safely elevated above him, you're nonetheless just feet away as you peer down at his shaggy, cream-colored bulk. Noticing you, he stops, sniffs, and turns his face your way, curious. Awed, you draw in your breath, respecting the silence. The big bear ambles, then halts again. He rises on his haunches to peer at you more deliberately. You watch. You wonder. Minutes go by, perhaps an hour, who knows. On the tundra, among the bears, time stands still.

Your Churchill polar bear tour begins in Winnipeg, once a fur-trading post and boomtown for the Canadian Pacific Railway, today Manitoba's cultural and commercial capital at the eastern edge of Canada's vast prairies. Transfer to the historic Fort Garry Hotel, grande dame of Winnipeg hospitality and one of the city's most prestigious landmarks. Meet your Expedition Leader at an orientation dinner this evening.
Fly to Churchill this morning. This hospitable outpost town, originally a fur-trading post, is your base for adventure. Head to the tundra this evening for your first glimpse of the bears, though you often see them from the bus leaving the airport, even before boarding the polar rover.
Unique tundra vehicles are your mobile means for spending time among the polar bears. Although they accommodate an average of 35 passengers, there will be a maximum of 16, ensuring everyone a window seat. Your Expedition Leaders know the best places to view bears, which are waiting for the ice to solidify on Hudson Bay so they may begin the winter seal-hunting season. Spend hours watching them interact, delighted by their antics and rugged beauty. From the warmth of your vehicle, you may see mothers with cubs and young adult males play-fighting. Your knowledgeable Expedition Leader offers interpretation along the way, explaining the bears' behavior and how they thrive in such a harsh environment. In the evenings, meet for dinner, followed by presentations on wildlife or local cultures.
Your return flights are scheduled to depart in the mid - late afternoon, to offer as much time as possible to explore Churchill. Pick up last-minute native handcrafts and souvenirs or, if time permits, take an optional helicopter journey over the tundra before your flight back to Winnipeg.
After breakfast, transfer to the airport for flights home.
Departure dates and itinerary subject to change. Please contact ExpeditionTrips to confirm departure schedule before purchasing air tickets. ExpeditionTrips is not responsible for itinerary changes.
Note: Historically, there is a 60% chance of seeing the Northern Lights on the nighttime trip to the tundra. On some occasions they are more brilliant than others, but they are always quite a thrill!

Al Qaeda's MiscalculationBY Herschel Smith
9 years, 4 months ago
Michael Ledeen's new book The Iranian Time Bomb contains some brief but stark words that, in a nutshell, wrap up the worldview of radical Shi'a Islam concerning nation-states and how this concept is not a part of their world view. In the words of Khomeini:
"We do not worship Iran. We worship Allah. For patriotism is is another name for paganism. I say let this land [Iran] burn. I say let this land go up in smoke, provided Islam emerges triumphant in the rest of the world.�? Ledeen comments of its more recent history, "Without exception, their core beliefs are totally contrary to the notion they are a traditional nation-state.�?
This is radical Shi'a Islam, not moderate Shi'a Islam, and not Sunni Islam. However, the radical elements of both sects see the world through the same lens. In both corporate America and jihadism, the solution to failure is reorganization. There is yet another one underway, this time among the ex-Ba'athists and Saddam henchmen.
Nearly two dozen previously unknown Iraqi insurgent groups announced a new coalition to fight foreign occupation but it also set conditions for talks with the U.S. in a statement on a Web site affiliated with the country's deposed Baath party.
The 22 groups said their leader is Izzat al-Douri, the highest ranking member of Saddam Hussein's former ruling party still at large.
In the nearly half hour video message, an unidentified man, face blurred, was shown sitting behind a table with an Iraqi flag on his right side reading a statement announcing the formation of the new alliance called "The Jihad and Liberation."
The new alliance laid down a series of conditions for talks with the U.S. It demanded an unconditional withdrawal of foreign forces from Iraq, immediately or within a short timetable, the release of all detainees, return of the security forces to their status before the occupation and a halt to all operations against the people.
"If the enemy wants to withdraw and save face, they should sit down and speak directly with the resistance to discuss implementing these sacred principles. Otherwise, the only alternative is their collapse and flight," the statement said.
Ayad Allawi, Iraq's first post-Saddam prime minister, has recently said he held talks with members of the Baath party loyal to al-Douri, for which he was severely criticized by Iraq's current prime minister, Nouri al-Maliki.
The statement made no mention of al-Qaida in Iraq, but it contained slogans praising Arab nationalism and the Arab nation's great past. Al-Qaida's extremist ideology does not recognize nationalism, but calls for an Islamic state.
There have been reports of clashes in Iraq between the more nationalist and secular elements of the insurgency with groups following al-Qaida.
The coalition is led by a group linked to al-Douri, who in his later years ascribed to a moderate, mystic Sufi form of Islam.
An Islamic Web site linked to extremist groups such as al-Qaida also carried the announcement, but ridiculed al-Douri and the new group.
In a sign of the desperation of the indigenous insurgents – those who have not been killed – al Douri demands the U.S. departure from Iraq with the threat of collapse in the event of refusal to comply. Al Douri is the last holdout, will never befriend the new Iraqi government, and has nothing to gain by attempting peace. He is a hunted man, and his very existence is in jeopardy. His ilk are short timers in the short history of the new Iraq, regardless of what else happens. But regarding the main point, his views are nationalistic and have nothing to do with an Islamic state or the expansion of Islam beyond the borders of Iraq.
This is the nexus of the tribal turn against al Qaeda and al Qaeda's failure in Iraq (although the hard line Ba'athists couldn't participate, being too far submerged into the violence perpetrated against the Shi'a). Al Qaeda couldn't have cared less about nationalistic pride, history of heritage, or tribal loyalties and the security of the population. Their brutal and savage tactics attempting to keep the tribes in line are evidence of not just the difference in tactics, but of world view. The tactics are just a pointer to something larger – the philosophy that undergirds al Qaeda.
Umar al Baghdadi (whom U.S. intelligence believes to be a nonexistent hoax, but whom Nibras Kazimi believes to exist), addressing the now "recalcitrant" insurgents who have come over to the coalition side, speaks for the Islamic State of Iraq when he says:
… Don't sell your afterlife for a bunch of coins that will be of no use should you fall into the hands of the mujaheddin before you declare repentance, by Allah your fortifications and your armored vehicles will not protect you, neither will your numbers or the reputation of your tribes, because Allah is making us victorious over you, and you will know that this is so for certain when we cut off your head and extinguish your memory…
He is referring to payment for policing and intelligence, money that the Sunnis badly need to support their families, and monies that should be more forthcoming from the U.S. If they accept it, he says, their heads will be cut off. Al Baghdadi sees the end of Western civilization in his wildest dreams.
… Today, we are embarking on a new era, and a point of transformation for the region and the entire world, we are witnessing the end of that lie called Western civilization, and the rise of the Islamic giant, and this is exactly what Bush warned of in his latest speech in front of the veterans [Ed.: August 22, 2007]
Anbar became a three way war: the U.S. against al Qaeda and the indigenous insurgents, al Qaeda against the U.S. and the insurgents, and the insurgents against the U.S. and al Qaeda. This three way war came into being due to irreconcilable differences in world view: al Qaeda saw a gigantic Islamic state expanding from Iraq throughout the Middle East, and so Iraq became the focal point of their efforts. The indigenous Sunni story is more complex, with them wanting to return to power in Iraq, and slowly realizing that they wouldn't, while also realizing that the U.S. would not be militarily defeated.
The lesson from this is not that the Iraqi people are not Islamic. The lesson is that the Iraqi people didn't see the requirement to jettison tribe and nation in order to be Islamic, any more than they saw the necessity to embrace world conflict to be the same. This was al Qaeda's monumental miscalculation, and Iraq is al Qaeda's Vietnam. Their twilight in Iraq has come, as has the Ba'athist holdouts from Saddam's regime.

SAN FRANCISCO -- Joe Staley's return is doubtful after the 49ers' starting left tackle suffered a knee contusion.
The 49ers did not say whether this was the same knee Staley injured earlier in the season. I did notice Staley struggling to hold his ground on one play when his man batted a pass at the line of scrimmage.
Barry Sims is playing left tackle.
Also on the injury front, Frank Gore started the second half for the 49ers after missing the final six snaps of the second quarter.

Hospitals are "staring down the barrel" of having to cut the jobs of doctors and nurses – actions that could lead to another Mid-Staffordshire scandal – unless the NHS radically reforms, the organisation's head warns today.
In a stark assessment of the perilous state of NHS finances, Sir David Nicholson said the health service faced a £30bn black hole in its finances by the end of the decade because of rising demand.
And he predicted that unless politicians and the public accepted the need to shut and centralise services such as accident and emergency care, cardiac surgery and maternity units, the NHS would no longer be able to cope with demand. Sir David was backed in his remarks by the Medical Director of the NHS, Sir Bruce Keogh, and the Chief Nursing Officer, Jane Cummings.
They called for a "national conversation" about how to reform the NHS and called for politicians to be honest with the public about what needed to be done.
"What we're really worried about is an approach that would muddle through," Sir David said. "It won't. Seventy-five per cent of all the money spent by hospitals is on staff. [We're] looking down the barrel of reducing staffing on wards and that is just not acceptable."
Asked if that could lead to another scandal similar to that which contributed to the unnecessary deaths of hundreds of patients at Mid Staffs, he replied: "That is exactly the position."
The comments by the three most senior figures in the NHS underline the growing frustration in the organisation at the slow pace of change in reconfiguring NHS services.
While senior politicians accept the need to merge services, when individual hospitals are affected they lead to a barrage of local protests – which often delay plans for months and sometimes years as they are fought through the courts.
Sir David and Sir Bruce argue that specialised services – such a paediatric cardiac surgery, stoke and cancer services – are best if they are centralised in fewer, more experienced units.
Sir David warned that ministers – who have to approve all such changes – had to act in the long-term interests of the whole NHS and not short-term political considerations.
"The current regulatory process around those changes is very slow and we need to talk to the Government about how we streamline that because those changes need to happen and happen rapidly," he said. "More importantly we need to have a conversation with patients about the necessity to make that happen."
But he added: "If a political manifesto does not say that service change is absolutely essential and that you need to concentrate and centralise services – it will not be being straight forward with the British people."
He also hinted at a new shake-up of primary care, with smaller GP surgeries being forced to merge with other practices where they could provide a greater range of services in the community. This is also likely to meet fierce opposition as it will almost certainly mean patients having to travel further to see their local GP.
Sir Bruce said that patients needed to be aware of the true picture facing the health service. "The NHS is caught in a triple pincer of rapidly escalating demand, rapidly escalating cost and restrained resources," he said.
"And all of that is against a background of increasing expectations of better quality care with the principles of the NHS maintained. So that's it is such a complicated issue. As guardians of the NHS purse we have a duty to ensure we get the best value for the taxpayer."
Jane Cummings, the Chief Nursing Officer, said even at the moment care was not good enough in certain parts of the country.
If Sir David, who is to retire next year following criticisms of his handling of the Mid Staffs crisis, gets his way it is likely to result in the downgrading of services currently provided by district general hospitals around the country.
They are unlikely to be closed altogether – but will merge services with other local hospitals meaning patients will have to go further to be treated.
But Sir David insisted it was the only way to provide consistent high quality care in an age of effectively frozen budget.
"The nature and scale of the challenges that we face are so great that we really do have to have a much more radical view about the way we are going to [change]," he said. "The general approach will be specialisation and concentration in a smaller number of organisations. That is inevitably the consequence."
Mike Farrar, head of the NHS Confederation, which represents hospital managers, said the Government needed the "courage and willingness" to challenge how health services were structured.
"NHS England is right to call for an honest and realistic debate between NHS staff, the public and politicians about what needs to change. When that debate has been had, it is crucial that those in charge of the NHS make the changes a reality."
Chris Ham, chief executive of the health think-tank The King's Fund, added: "The significant financial and service pressures facing the NHS and social care will continue for some time yet, so it will be important to be honest with the public about the implications of this in the run-up to the next general election and beyond."
Straight talk: What they say
Sir David Nicholson (NHS chief executive) "Every year from now on we have to find £4bn-£6bn of savings, to deal with new demand."
Sir Bruce Keogh (NHS Medical Director) "The NHS is caught in a triple pincer of escalating demand, escalating costs and restrained resources."
Jane Cummings (NHS Chief Nursing Officer) "Staff and patients say repeatedly we are not providing the best possible care."
Patients face treatment rationing
Patients are having their access to some treatments restricted by one in seven of the Government's new clinic commissioning groups, new research suggests today.
The groups were set up by ministers to replace Primary Care Trusts as part of the Government's health reforms. Led by GPs, they have responsibility for deciding what treatments to offer their patients on the NHS.
But an investigation for the BMJ found that some CCGs have tightened the thresholds for access to "low priority" surgery such as hernia and joint problems. Others have introduced new systems to restrict the flow of patients being sent to hospital.
Eight CCGs across north-west London added new restrictions for nasal surgery and a new general cosmetic policy, but also removed restrictions for several procedures including asymptomatic gall stones and caesarean section for non-medical reasons.

Skip to comments.China Draws Line in Sand to End Pollution for Good
Posted on 08/17/2006 2:18:05 AM PDT by Einigkeit_Recht_Freiheit
BEIJING China will rigorously enforce limits on industrial pollution as it seeks to rein in rampant pollution and tame frenetic economic growth, the nation's top environment official said.
Zhou Shengxian, head of China's State Environmental Protection Administration, said government efforts to cut sulphur dioxide and other pollutants belching into China's hazy skies were failing, the China Environment News reported on Wednesday.
Breakneck economic expansion was instead overwhelming official goals to cut emissions and energy use, he said in a speech to officials on Tuesday.
"The central leadership is treating reductions in energy use and major pollutant emissions as two major hard targets -- red lines that can't be crossed," he was quoted as saying.
Zhou urged environmental officials to latch on to the ruling Communist Party leadership's determination to cool the economy in a fresh effort to cut pollution.
"The party central leadership and State Council are using reduction of major pollutants as an important means to promote coordinated, sustainable development," he said, referring to China's cabinet.
China has promised to clean its dirty skies for the 2008 Beijing Olympics, and Chinese Premier Wen Jiabao has made green development a key theme of his administration.
But Zhou said giddy investment in steel mills, cement plants, coal-fired power stations and other emissions-heavy industries was defeating pollution limits. He promised a campaign to vet planned projects, especially those with investment of 100 million yuan ($12.5 million) or more.
China has become the world's top emitter of acid rain-causing sulphur dioxide, with discharges rising 27 percent from 2000 to 2005, mostly from coal-burning power stations, SEPA officials said earlier this month.
Zhou said estimates from 17 Chinese provinces indicated that discharges grew another 5.8 percent last year.
"We must face up to the fact that in the first half of the year emissions of major pollutants nationwide didn't fall, but rose," Zhou said.
"Investment in some pollution-related industries accelerated," he added, noting investment in coal mining and processing grew 45.7 percent compared to the first half of last year.
But the government's determination to tame growth -- which hit 11.3 percent in the second quarter compared to the year-earlier period -- was an opportunity for environmental enforcers, Zhou said.
Wen has ordered local governments to establish accountability rules for implementing caps on sulphur dioxide and other pollutants, and demanded that local officials face inspections for pollution control, Zhou said.
"Implementing reduction goals for major pollutants is the key focus of our work in the second half of the year," he said, warning officials that they should not assume the government's five-year plan for reining in pollution gave them ample time. ($1=7.981 Yuan)
Either way, I tend to believe they can do it if they really put their minds to it.
To bad most of the technology they will import will be German and Japanese. The US is really quite far behind at least in terms of household goods. Of course, a lot of what the US uses is imported as well.
Efficiency really is the future.
Second comment: This story may be the opposite of reality because it is, in fact, coming from Reuters.
Oh, I wouldn't doubt the Chinese are *saying* they will do these things.
Whether anything substantive will actually change, is another thing altogether.
It will be honored more inthe breach then the observance.
Anyone who has been in China knows the pollution is abysmal.
Combination of ignorance and the need to make money with no restrictions.
A bit of an odd way of putting here at FR.
Communists always ruin their environment, but in this circumstance I am having a hard time pigeon-holing the ChiComs to give them a political label. I suppose ChiComs will have to do.
Reminds a bit too much of IngSoc from the book that gave me my tag line.
Here in Florida we have a river Called the steinhatchie. Decades ago the government gave the owners of a huge paper mill an exemption in regards to pollution. Over these decades the company has killed this river and the pollution is dumped into the Gulf of Mexico killing much of that body of water and causing red tide.
This occurs today and everyday even now.
This used to happen all over the U.S. and is now happening all over China.
Yeah, go and earn money but don't kill the environment.
This is something I think most conservatives firmly believe. Unfortunately the conservative politicians don't act like. Environmentalism used to be a conservative cause, with promotion of converative policies.
It has now given as a gift to the left which is a real shame as we begin to face increasingly more significant global environmental issues.
This is basically what I have been posting for a long time now, so we are in agreement.
I'll be fascinated to see how this actually works. Based on whose definition one chooses to use, pollution extends to everything related to human existence on earth and beyond.
Allow me to provide an example. Suppose that ALL human-related "pollution" were actually eliminated from China and the Chinese were forced to resort to the horse and buggy for their transportation and freight shipping needs. The problem they face is that horses still produce "pollution". They poop and they fart. Based on any given envirowacko's definition of pollution, horse poop can be considered a pollutant and farts emit methane gas (fineable if your a cattle farmer in New Zealand).
So, I generally scoff at the notion that China will end pollution once and for all. As the genteel among us might say, "It is to laugh".
I agree with that the conservative approach (which I think you are implying is relying or tweaking market forces) is also the consistently better alternative.
The environment tends to be a commons and therefore suffers from the trgedy of that commons. Placing a price on pollution generally only happens when people start to place a value on clean air, water, etc. over immediate economic growth. Companies just play by the rules they are given.
That much said, of course you have to have taxes on something in order to give breaks.
The Chinese are just starting to place restrictions on burdening the environment i.e. internalizing external costs.
You seem to be exaggerating a bit.
I never promoting "ending pollution" but rather increasing efficiency.
There are a limited number of resources on the planet - except human ingenuity.
The whole world cannot use resources in the manner the West currently does. There simply is not enough.
The world will also not simply let the West continue its lifestyle while they adopt a more modest one.
The only solution is for the West to modify its resources use patterns. This is an impossible scenario to imagine the West voluntarily reducing its resource consumption. Of course, the alternative is the overuse the resources capacity of the earth. Thus, it is the most impossible likelihood, except for the all of the others.
The nations that start first in efficiency will be the big winners. Ever notice that Germany is the world's leading exporter with 1/5 of the US population? What they export are their very efficient manufactured goods.
That philosophy will always veer liberal in the long run. People like myself can put a mostly private value on clean air. I say mostly because I benefit from 100,000 or so acres of national forest next to me. But I pay for it in spades with a 75 mile commute. Companies can move out there and hire me, offer me telecommuting options, or whatever else, but if they don't pay even 1/2 of what I'm getting now, I'm not going to consider switching. That's why economic growth is important, it gives me opportunities to save energy.
The other proof is that you in Europe and we in America have stopped our runup in energy usage and now it's the third world's turn to do so. If allowed to prosper they will be able to create the same efficiencies.
You didn't write anything with which I disagree.
However, there simply are not enough resources on the planet for 1-2 billion more people to run up their energy and then find efficienies later. If you don't want to talk about climate chage than how about fresh water, trees, and fish.
The reality is that there is a net loss of forests, the majority of our fisheries are at capacity or in decline, etc. etc.
I am not a "sky is falling" moonbat. I consistently advocate market/technology based solutions. But the scale of the problem and size of the investment needed, combined with pricing in of previously externatilized costs requires policy. Smart policy.
Can you explain how that is "liberal thinking"?
Liberal thinking is pretending that economic growth and prosperity can be created through central planning. If there is a little central planning (e.g. basic air quality protection), that is not going to necessarily lead to liberalism although even that bureaucracy will inevitably get crazy (e.g. formulas for gas that make people drive 20 miles extra to get it cheaper). The real liberal thinking comes from planning how people live, e.g. public transportation, mixed with promotion of politically favored projects like farm subsidies.
I didn't directly answer your question about the third world. My main answer is free trade to bring up their living standards. Our wealthy manufacturing work force has taken the brunt of this, while poor manufacturing workers have had a rapid increase in living standards. Wealth also seems to bring down birth rates.
Public transport, however, is a public good. It is also too expensive of an investment (at least when referring to subways and light rail) to generally be something a private company could do. There is also a measure of fairness involved. Or would you say that people living in rural areas should not have gotten electricity or telephones?
Farm subsidies are tricky. The most outrageous like cotton are a result of concentrated political power. Others have benefits to the public good, like a secure food supply or maintenance of the land.
To deny that there is such a thing as the public good is absurd or anarchist. The environment is a public good. Pricing SOX, NOX or CO2 is just a matter of internalizing previously external costs. The market then has to work to minimize those costs.
Water used to be free, until there were too many people. One used to be able to go out in the woods and hunt or fish as much as you wanted. When these goods became scarce they became regulated. It is a natural progression.
I agree that command and control are the things to avoid. For the government to say who, what and when something will happen rarely if ever works. For the government to make the (least amount of) rules deemed necessary and let the players figure out how to best play the game is common, conservative sense.
Fully agreed.
Umm . . did you even read the first line of the article?
The title was from Reuters! The Chinese themselves just said they want to actually enforce the rules that are on the books. Come on DM, you are smarter than that.
"Yeah, go and earn money but don't kill the environment."
And this is the problem in America today. On one side you have radical environmentalists who understand that we need pristine land to live and on the other you have corporations, who produce their products and do at times pollute.
What we should be doing is putting both groups together to work together to produce the best solutions while eliminating government regs that stifle growth. Give incentives based on partnerships.
The "public good" is an overgeneralization of several rights and a lot of socialist junk. I have the right to clean air, CO2 doesn't make it dirty. I'm sure we've argued this before, but AGW is based on models that primarily use water vapor to warm the earth, CO2 only contributes a degree or two. If you insist on defining a "public good" then define it as a function of model output, then I can pay to have SO2 injected into the upper atmosphere or some other equally cheap solution to warming (if it is indeed a problem).
My guess is that in a face to face conversation we would find we agree on most points. Our mild areas of disagreement is what makes this interesting.
In terms of the anti climate change water vapour argument, I have posted about this before.
If you view the atmosphere (the greenhouse gasses that is) as a glass that is 99.99 water vapour, then it does make logical sense the .001% is irrelevant.
However, the reality is that it a glass is not the correct analogy, but rather a sensitive (yet sometimes self-correcting) balance. If you add too much is one direction you will get a signficant shift. We don't know how much that is and could be less than .001%. If you combine human emissions with what might be a normal cyclical warming, the shift could be very, very great and the self-balancing mechanism will take a time-period longer than is relevant for human beings.
Ultimately it is quite obvious from the time that I have been posting at FR that the climate change debate is moving in my direction and not the other way.
Even if you don't believe in it personally, it is simply time to start advocating reasonable measures based on conservative market mechanisms. Otherwise we are going to get something much, much worse, more costly and more destructive.
By the way, have you ever been to Switzerland? I have and I understand why they pay the price they do to keep their country looking like it does. Actually this is the first time I have ever, ever heard anyone criticize the way the Swiss run things. Very odd Palmer, very odd.
Again, I will repeat the challenge I make to all AGW enthusiasts. If your models really do predict warming, then let's use the same models to figure out the cheapest solution which will surely not be the limiting of CO2. Their general rejection of that challenge betrays their agenda which is anti-growth and ultimate anti-humanity. There is no "CO2 commons", there are much cheaper ways to deal with warming, if indeed it is a problem.
Environmental alarmists will scream about forest fires ignoring the fact that I know what I am doing. They scream about super hurricanes, then when we don't have any, they look stupid. If anything, they hurt your cause since the average joe will tune everyone out, alarmist or not.
Science isn't a democratic process though.
I know the IDer's wish it were so, but it isn't. Scientists need to base their recommendations on the best available science. Politicians heed or ignore their advice at their own peril.
At the moment I see every industrialized nation with leaders that more or less except what the overwhelming majority of the scientific community is telling them about man's contribution to climate change. The only exception is the American President. The same statement could be made about evolution.
Meetings, gotta go. When I warn about people tuning out, I am warning AGWers against hyping the threat. Don't hype. And if the models say it will warm, then the models can also tell us the consequences of the warming as well as the cheapest ways to fix it.
To put it more succinctly: "You can catch more flies with honey."

We recorded a mini Cuisinart laying havoc to some tomatoes. Why? If you have to ask, you probably shouldn't be here. The top vid is a view of the carnage at 300 frames per second. (As you'll see, I call my food processor "Hitchcock" because it's always keeping me in suspense.) Below, additional tomatoes get annihilated at 600fps and then 1200fps, with increasing detail, but decreasing resolution and light. This is probably the happiest tradeoff of resolution to slow-mo devastation. The first video records at 512x384, while this one drops you down to a funky widescreen 432x192. The 1200fps setting is pretty much a novelty more than anything else, since you need a ton of light, and it records at an all too wide 336x96. We had to crop it so that it made any kind of sense, but here's a screengrab of the original vid: There's more to come with this fun little camera, but we wanted to give you a rather violent taste straight away.

LOL Auralie; I do believe you are correct here and it's a thought I
had not had...excellent!
It just seems to me that when a good idea comes along, there's a
certain type of human that can't rest until they've taken it to
extremes and made a religion out of it. I'm not in favor of our
human penchant for raping the natural places of this world or
exterminating all the wildlife, but I think trying to stop all change
back to some arbitrary point that was pulled out of the air is
totally unrealistic and the methods proposed in many cases highly
intrusive. Has rather gone beyond common sense to fanaticism - the
"I believe this, so you have to also to validate my belief"....
But your comment is just perfect:-)

Pictures of Torquay
in the county of Devon
About Torquay
Favoured by a mild climate, Torquay has an abundance of Palm trees, tropical plants and colourful flowers in bloom at every season of the year. Flower filled sweeping promenades and gardens enhance the almost Mediterranean feel of the seafront and harbour where hundreds of tall mast yachts, cabin cruisers and fishing boats are moored. There is a continuous 'buzz' about this lively place, once thought of only as a town for the retired. These days, Torquay appeals to all the family for there is truly something here for everyone.
Interestingly, on an historic note, beautiful Torre Abbey was founded here in the 12th-century, in 1588 the abbey's tithe barn was a prison for sailors captured from the Spanish Armada and 'Queen of Crime' Agatha Christie was born here in 1890. The place has no shortage of history nor, colourful characters.
Many grand buildings from the Georgian and Victorian era's dominate the town, whilst a short distance inland the village of Cockington shows a wealth of thatched cottages, an Elizabethan Manor House and a 14th-century forge. Within easy driving distance to the west of Torquay lies Compton Castle, a fortified manor house built early in the 14th-century and once home to Sir Humphrey Gilbert, step-brother to Sir Walter Raleigh. The fabulous Imperial Hotel was built in 1866, it has a stunning interior with many original features and its notable guest list included the Queen of Holland and other crowned heads from Europe and England.
It is though the sea that continues to be the main attraction. Swimming, sun bathing, sub-aqua diving, water-skiing, sea and river trips, sea fishing and with day trips as far afield as the Channel islands, the range of traditional sea-side activities is endless. Nightlife is well catered for with a wide choice of theatre's, restaurants and ballrooms. For little children there is the fun of building castles in the sand, play parks, gardens and playgrounds. There is a wide range of exciting shops and boutiques, excellent hotels, inns and good pubs.
Attractions include: Babbacombe Model Village, Royal Terrace Gardens, Kent's Cavern, Torquay Museum, Living Coast Experience, Abbey Park, Princess Gardens, Cockington Court and Babbacombe Cliff Railway.

text: Two rednecks are out hunting, and as they are walking along they come upon a huge sink hole in the ground. They approached it and are amazed by the size of it. The first hunter says " Wow, 'at's some sink hole, I can't even see the bottom, I wonder how deep it is?" The second hunter says" I don't know, let's throw something down and listen and see how long it takes to hit bottom." The first hunter says "There's this old transmission here, give me a hand and we'll throw it in and see." So they pick it up and carry it over, and count one, and two, and three, and throw it in the sink hole. They are standing there listening and looking over the edge and they hear a rustling in the brush behind them. As they turn around they see a goat come crashing through the brush, run up to the sink hole, and with no hesitation, jump in head first. While they are standing there looking at each other, looking in the sink hole, and trying to figure out what that was all about, an old farmer walks up. "Didn't happen to see my goat round here, did ya?" the farmer asks. The first hunter says " We sure nuff did. We was justa standin here a minute ago and yer goat come running out of them bushes over yonder doin' bout a hunert miles an hour and he jumped headfirst into this here sink hole!" The old farmer says, "Naw, couldn't have been my goat, I had him chained to a transmission!"

4.6: Triangle Congruence using AAS
Learning Objectives
- Understand and apply the AAS Congruence Theorem.
AAS Congruence
Another way you can prove congruence between two triangles is by using two angles and the non-included side.
Angle-Angle-Side (AAS) Congruence Theorem
If two angles and a non-included side in one triangle are congruent to two corresponding angles and a non-included side in another triangle, then the triangles are congruent.
In the AAS Theorem, you use two _______________ and a _____________________________ side to prove congruence.
This is a theorem because it can be proven. First, we will do an example to see why this theorem is true, then we will prove it formally. Like the ASA Postulate, the AAS Theorem uses two angles and a side to prove triangle congruence. However, the order of the letters (and the angles and sides they stand for) is different.
The AAS Theorem is equivalent to the ASA Postulate because when you know the measure of two angles in a triangle, you also know the measure of the third angle. The pair of congruent sides in the triangles will determine the size of the two triangles. We will explore this further in the last section of this lesson.
The AAS Theorem is similar to the _____________________________________________ because they both use two angles and a side to prove congruence.
Example 1
What information would you need to prove that these two triangles were congruent using the AAS Theorem?
If you are to use the AAS Theorem to prove congruence, you need to know that pairs of two angles are congruent and the pair of sides adjacent to one of the given angles are congruent.
Then you would have:
These spell A-A-S.
The correct answer is D.
When you use AAS (or any triangle congruence postulate) to show that two triangles are congruent, you need to make sure that the corresponding pairs of angles and sides actually align.
When using triangle congruence postulates, it is important for ____________________________ angles and sides to match up.
For instance, look at the diagram below:
Even though two pairs of angles and one pair of sides are congruent in the triangles, these triangles are NOT congruent. Why?
Since the corresponding parts DO NOT match up, you CANNOT use AAS to say these triangles are congruent.
If you want to prove that two triangles are ________________________________, you must be careful to make sure that _______________________________ parts of the triangles match up!
Reading Check:
1. In the space below, sketch two congruent triangles and mark the parts that are congruent by the AAS Theorem.
2. In the space below, sketch two congruent triangles and mark the parts that are congruent by the ASA Postulate.
AAS and ASA Congruence
The AAS Triangle Congruence Theorem is logically the exact same as the ASA Triangle Congruence Postulate. Look at the following diagrams to see why:
You can see the following in the figure on the previous page:
\begin{align*}\angle C \cong \angle Z\end{align*}
∠C≅∠Zbecause both angles have two arcs
\begin{align*}\angle B \cong \angle Y\end{align*}
∠B≅∠Ybecause both angles have one arc
The congruent parts in the figure spell A-A-S, so based on these markings you see, the triangles are congruent because of the AAS Theorem.
Now we can see that:
\begin{align*}\angle A \cong \angle X \ (A)\end{align*}
\begin{align*}\overline{AB} \cong \overline{XY} \ (S)\end{align*}
- and \begin{align*}\angle B \cong \angle Y \ (A)\end{align*}
Reading Check:
1. True/False: When you use the AAS Congruence Theorem OR the ASA Congruence Postulate, you can prove that all angles in both triangles are congruent with the Third Angle Theorem.
2. True/False: The AAS Theorem and the ASA Postulate are logically completely different.
