AWE how cute! he deserves all the love he needs, and he will only get it from the luckiest gal (meaning you.) lol.
Thanks for the comment hun. I like Merlots face moisturizer. I find it amusing when I know my face is so dry, and the lotion seriously absorbs into my skin as if it was on the Sierra desert.

An interesting strategy for trying to take advantage of either an anticipated drop or jump in market volatility is the options straddle - either buying or selling, depending on your view of the outcome for the market.
A straddle involves either buying or selling BOTH the call and the put, with the same strike price and expiry (If you want to know the basics of options try this Investopedia link )
Example Trade
It's the beginning of January and the FTSE100 is 6725. You are expecting a big move over the next six weeks but you don't know if it is going to be up or down. But what you do think is that the FTSE will be nowhere near 6725 in the middle of Feb. One way of trying to take advantage of this is by buying the straddle - buying the FEB 6725 put and the call. Here are some made-up prices for this example:
Feb 6725 put 105/110
Feb 6725 call 105/110.
I have kept the prices the same to make it easier for me - this is just an example of course. If you are buying you would buy at 110, if selling then 105. So, the total call for the Feb 6725 FTSE straddle in this example is 220 (110+110). Let's assume you buy £5 a point.
Possible Outcomes
There are lots. The ideal one is a big move away from the strike price of 6725. Options expiry for the FTSE is usually the third Friday of the month. Of course, YOU DO NOT HAVE TO HOLD THE OPTIONS TO EXPIRY. But for the purposes of this we will assume you let it run to the bitter end.
Outcome 1 - Significant Market Move
FTSE rallies 500 points to 7225. The put is worthless - it gives you the right to sell at 6725, but you can sell at 7225 now because that's where the market is. The call, however, is a different story. This gives you the right to buy at 6725: quite the bargain when the market is currently at 7225. So the call is worth 500 points (7225 at expiry-6725 strike price). Your profit on the straddle is 500-220 (price opened at) = 280 points. At £5 a point this would be £1,400.
Of course, if the market moved e.g. 500 points lower at expiry the profit would be the same - the call would be worthless but the put would be worth 500.
Either way the ideal outcome is a BIG move away from the strike. A couple of other different outcomes:
Outcome 2 - Smaller Market Move
The market rallies over the next six weeks but only gradually and is at 6850 at expiry. So it has moved away from the 6725 strike but what does that mean for the straddle?
With the market at 6850, the put is worthless - but the call is worth 6850-6725=125. So that's the value of the straddle at expiry, 125 points. However, the straddle was opened at 220 points so the loss here is 220-125= 95. At £5 a point that's a loss of £475.
The market moved, but not drastically enough to cover the cost of the straddle. So it lost money.
Outcome 3 - Flat Market
The final outcome to look at is unlikely but does illustrate the maximum loss for a straddle - the price paid. The market expires at 6725, which is bang on the strike price. The put and the call are worthless. The overall loss is 220 points - the price paid. And at £5 per point that is a £1,100 loss.
Calculating Break Even Points
It's clear that in buying a straddle, regardless of the time period we need a jump in volatility and and a decent market move. Working out the break evens can help us (?) to try and figure out if it fits our market view.
This is easy - just add the price paid for the straddle to the strike price. So in this example, paying 220 points for the straddle, a move of more than 220 away from the strike price in either direction by expiry is needed to show a profit.
Strike: 6725
Cost: 220
Upside break even: 6725+220= 6945
Downside break even 6725-220= 6505
At expiry to show a profit on this example, the FTSE needs to be ABOVE 6925 or BELOW 6505.
The Short Straddle - Selling rather than buying
In markets, if you can buy something it can usually be sold. So next time, the short straddle (SELLING the put and the call) will be looked at.
In various payrolls webinars in recent years I have sold the daily Dow straddle to try and profit from the market ending the day not a million miles away from where it was just before the announcement.
It worked more times than it didn't - in the words of Anchorman, "60% of the time, it works every time". But when a short straddle goes wrong, it can go horribly wrong..
More next time.

The benefits of reading are being espoused by Angus South MSP Graeme Dey ahead of Book Week Scotland, which runs this week.
Now in its third year, Book Week Scotland returned on Monday, November 24 and lasts until Sunday, November 30.
Since its inauguration, Book Week Scotland has reached thousands of people across the country with a large and diverse events programme, free books, author visits, library murals and a literary Facebook app that received more than one million users.
This year will see more than 150,000 copies of a 128-page book called 'Scotland's Stories of Home', distributed to the general public free of charge over the course of the week.
SNP MSP Graeme Dey is inviting people to drop into his constituency office found on Arbroath High Street to pick up a free copy of the book, which contains a collection of stories, songs, poems and more.
He commented: "Reading is a hugely beneficial habit to get into and Book Week Scotland does a fantastic job at promoting this important message.
"I hope my constituents will take the opportunity to drop into my office during the course of the week to pick up a free copy of 'Scotland's Stories of Home', which with Christmas not far away, makes an ideal stocking filler.
"Scotland has an enviable track-record for producing some of the world's greatest writers and the best way to ensure this impressive legacy continues in the decades to come is to encourage our young people to pick-up a book and read."
Initiated by the Scottish Government and funded by Creative Scotland, Book Week Scotland is run by the Scottish Book Trust and is a national celebration of reading. The week-long programme of events is bursting with fantastic opportunities for people of all ages, interests and reading abilities, to embark or continue on a reading journey.
A limited number of 'Scotland's Stories of Home' are available at Mr Dey's office at 282-284 High Street, Arbroath, on a first-come first-served basis.

This 1972 set recorded in Nashville sees the wild man of rock back by a six-piece band and the 21st Century Singers in fine soul style.
Screamin' Jay Hawkins, who died in Paris in February 2000, was the original wild man of rock. His outrageous live act, with its use of ghoulish stage props, was a major influence on Alice Cooper, Arthur Brown and Screaming Lord Sutch.For this set, recorded in 1972 in Nashville, Hawkins does his thing in fine soul style, backed by a six-piece band and the 21st Century Singers.As well as including a batch of new songs and his individual take on Conway Twitty's 'It's Only Make Believe', this collection includes a soulful re-working of his all-time classic, 'I Put A Spell On You', a song which has been covered over the years by numerous artists ranging from Nina Simone to Creedence Clearwater Revival.
His most successful recording, "I Put a Spell on You" (1956), was selected as one of The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame's 500 Songs that Shaped Rock and Roll. According to the AllMusic Guide to the Blues, "Hawkins originally envisioned the tune as a refined ballad. The entire band was intoxicated during a recording session where "Hawkins screamed, grunted, and gurgled his way through the tune with utter drunken abandon.The resulting performance was no ballad but instead a "raw, guttural track" that became his greatest commercial success and surpassed a million copies in sales
The performance was mesmerizing, although Hawkins himself blacked out and was unable to remember the session. Afterward he had to relearn the song from the recorded version Meanwhile the record label released a second version of the single, removing most of the grunts that had embellished the original performance; this was in response to complaints about the recording's overt sexuality. Nonetheless it was banned from radio in some areas.
Soon after the release of "I Put a Spell on You", radio disc jockey Alan Freed offered Hawkins $300 to emerge from a coffin onstage. Hawkins accepted and soon created an outlandish stage persona in which performances began with the coffin and included gold and leopard skin costumes and notable voodoo stage props, such as his smoking skull on a stick – named Henry – and rubber snakes. These props were suggestive of voodoo, but also presented with comic overtones that invited comparison to "a black Vincent Price."

Kid phenom blazing his own trail
Michael Andrew wants to make one thing clear: He's not trying to be another Michael Phelps.
The just-turned 13-year-old is eager to leave his own wake at the pool.
"I love breaking new barriers in swimming," Andrew said.
Keep an eye on this kid. While too young to have a realistic shot at making it to the London Olympics, he could be on the verge of stardom when the Rio Games come around in four years.
Already 6-foot-2 with size 15 feet and massive hands, Andrew has set numerous U.S. age-group records and is eager to test his limits against a top-level swimmer today, boldly taking on world championship medalist Tyler McGill in a couple of just-for-fun match races at Fishers, Ind.
Naturally, Andrew already is getting comparisons to Phelps, who made his first Olympic team at age 15 and has gone on to win more gold medals (14) than any other athlete.
"When I hear that, I have to correct it," the youngster said. "I would be more than happy to be as great as Michael Phelps, but I'd like to be the first Michael Andrew."
McGill, who won a bronze medal in the 100-meter butterfly at last year's world championships, isn't too concerned about losing to a kid who celebrated his 13th birthday this week. That's not the point of racing the 50 fly and 25 free during a stop of the Fitter & Faster Tour.
"Every kid, including myself, had a moment when they were young that they had an opportunity to learn from or speak to or engage with a world champion or Olympic-level athlete," McGill said Friday. "This is more about the experience he'll have to hold on to further down the road."
Andrew isn't conceding anything. He never goes into an event expecting to lose, even when racing a swimmer who figures to be a medal contender at the London Olympics this summer.
In five months, Michael has set 11 short-court and five long-course records.

Life, Don't Talk To Me About Life
The old believe everything: the middle-aged suspect everything: the young know everything."
– Oscar Wilde
I have just finished reading Saturday by Ian McEwan, it felt like I had been reading it forever, not one of his better works. Neurosurgeon Henry Perowne see an aeroplane on fire fly over London in the early hours of Saturday morning, a few more pages in he has a fender bender with a nutter who threatens him, but Perowne being a top notch doctor spots that the man is ill and brings the matter up, there's a fight and Perowne goes on to his squash game. There are then 10 pages describing the squash game, perowne goes to the market, to see his mother, to see his sons band play, then goes home. On Page 206 the nutter reappears at his home, where he threatens his family, Perowne lures him…

We had a rough week with subfreezing temps and a dusting of snow, but then it warmed up until it has been in the 70's and even low 80's this week. I am pulling plants out of the house and starting to dig in the ground. It's exciting to watch what comes up around here. Like this little surprise...

a Great Escape
July 27, 2011
today I am off to The Great Escape, a Six Flags park across Lake Champlain in Lake George, New York. I haven't been on a roller coaster since the last time I was here about 6 years ago. while I'm not a huge adrenaline junky looking for the biggest drops, the most disorienting loops, or the highest swings, I do love a good adventure now and again. the weather is a perfect 80* and sunny and I hope that will all come back with all of our limbs and stomachs intact.
how do you feel about amusement parks?
will you stand in line for the biggest coaster? or do bumper cars seem to daunting for you?

I mentioned a fair while back that it was Matariki. Now, finally, well after it was due I managed to celebrate it with my friends.
I cooked a feast, prawns, cheeses, salami, breads, followed by roast lamb, roast root vegetables and peas and broccoli (simple but one of my favourites) and wrapped up with fudgy covered ice cream and ginger kisses.
We drank, we talked, we celebrated where we are right now and even had a little bit of foot wrestling.
At the end of the night I got to snuggle in with the boyfriend after a week of hectic assignment writing and it was perfect.
Did you do anything for Matariki?

Current traffic growth on Gauteng's e-toll freeways is running at around 4%, says South African National Roads Agency Limited (Sanral) planning, toll and transportation project engineer Alan Robinson. This means the current volume of 1.25-million people-trips a day on the e-toll freeway network will grow by 50 000 people-trips a day this year, he adds. view more
A number of fleet management solutions can save businesses the additional costs of the recent value-added tax (VAT) and fuel price increases, says Standard Bank Fleet Management executive head Derick de Vries. He says this year's increase in VAT to 15% from 14% can be "comfortably offset" by means of a comprehensive solution that harnesses predictive data. "Fleet owners are facing a multitude of additional costs and also hidden costs they are not even aware of. The solution lies in harnessing the existing data they possess to dramatically save costs and enhance business efficiencies." For instance, Standard Bank Vehicle and Asset Finance (VAF) research into a company with a fleet of 50 vehicles, shows that the company saved R14 006 in April as a result of Standard Bank analysing their existing fuel spend patterns and converting them to one of their suitable fuel alliances where the customer is now saving 53c a litre on diesel. view more

Every Saturday in Coconut Grove {the oldest continuously inhabited neighborhood of Miami} my favorite farmers' market takes place. Organized by one of the few organic farms in the Miami area Glaser Organic Farms.
But under this tent, there is a lot more to discover than fresh produce.
The produce is mostly organic, but there is some conventional too. Conventionally "grown" that is because they do have some fruits and vegetables that you won't find in your conventional market, like tamarind, guanabana {soursop?}, nopal {which I'm hoping to cook with soon}, lots of different baby greens, etc.
Nope, the arugula I guy at the supermarket does not look like this…
So you find produce in all farmers' markets, but what makes this one so extra special are their grains, dried fruits, spices, seeds, nuts…
AND their organic/raw prepared foods…
All kind of different nut butters, olives and honeys
Sprouted hummus
Dressings and sauces
Slaws, sauerkraut, Kim Chi
Juices and teas
And much more, I just wasn't going to make myself look "too" crazy taking pics of all of it.. brownies, desserts, etc.
After my shopping and paying at this adorable setup…
… We ate lunch: seaweed salad, asparagus and red onion salad, mushrooms stuffed with herbs pâté and tomatoes stuffed with almond pâté {ah-mah-zing}
we also ordered a nori curry mango roll
and a "pizza" that def didn't look like the one I had the night before. I'm a pizza lover and calling this a pizza is just not right, it was good, it was real good but it just wasn't pizza.
Some refreshing juice.
And for dessert organic/raw ice cream, which was actually pretty good and even the kids enjoyed.
The Glaser Farm is actually closer to my house than the market, but they are not open to the public, they do take orders which you can pick up. The market takes place every Saturday from 10 am to 7 pm, and even though it can get a little crowded {and pricey} it is sooo worth the visit.
Do you shop at any farmer's market? What products do you find there that you don't find anywhere else?

First off, if you'd like to know the inspiration for this article, please take a couple minutes to read Cara Ellison's hands-on preview of Hotline Miami 2. I'd recommend avoiding the comments section all together, because it's a rage-inducing exercise in embarrassment for male gamers. Also take into mind I didn't avoid the comments section, and I'm currently foaming at the mouth annoyed with my fellow gamers. So take this article as what it is: mostly a rant.
So, Hotline Miami 2 has a little rape reference in it. Almost a joke, in a way. You get all set up to rape a girl, but then a director yells "Cut!" and it turns out it's just a movie. Something about that feels cheap to me. A kind of shock and awe, up-the-ante move that reeks of desperation and lack of forethought. As if the excessive violence wasn't going to cut it this time, they had to find a way to make it that much more brutal.
Hotline Miami is a game I've admittedly not played. I have it sitting on my Steam account from a recent Humble Bundle, but I haven't gotten around to playing it. It just doesn't seem like a game I'll enjoy much, so I'm holding off. It's not that I'm against violence, mind you, I'm just not into a game that's entire point is violence. I have nothing against it, it's just boring to me.
And it's clearly not the first game to use violence in such a brash, over-the-top manner. Is it trying to prove a point about the evils of psychopathic-levels of crime-killing? Maybe. Was the rape reference placed into this second game to attempt to show the evils of sex crimes in the same way? That may have been the intention. But something about this just doesn't work for me.
I think it's how pointless the whole thing feels. Now granted, the game isn't even out yet and I'm simply going off someone else's account of what goes down, but from the sound of it, the entire thing is just there to shock you. They bring you right up to the point where your character is about to rape someone, then pull it back as if to say "just kidding, we wouldn't go THAT far". It seems to me like a pointless bait-and-switch to mess with people without being accused of going "too far". If there was a point to be made, I don't think they'd shy away at the last second like that. This instead just feels like a cheap way to pretend they're making a point without pushing into a territory they can't excuse themselves out of.
Let's pull back for a second, and I'll answer a question some people might be wondering: Bob, are you okay with rape being in a video game?
Now, before you tear into me for being a misogynistic asshole with no empathy towards sexism or how women feel, let me explain. I'm in the "games can be art" camp, and I also believe art imitates life, regardless of how bad things in life can get. I don't want to automatically exclude something from an artistic medium just because it's awful or hurtful. As long as it is handled in a mature way, and is treated with the respect it deserves (meaning respect for it's gravity, not respect for the act itself), I believe nothing is truly off limits. But putting it in as a "WHOA!" moment for added shock value isn't respectful in the least. It's taking such subject matter incredibly lightly, and that's just not the right way to handle it.
With that in mind, let's address some of the defenses that are being thrown up towards including this scene in the game. Things people have said both respectfully and disrespectfully in comments sections and Tweets.
But that's what the game is! It's over-the-top violence. Why should this be any different?
Because this is included in a completely different way. The murder and gang violence you see is committed by you. You have full control of it. During this rape scene, as Cara puts it, "the control is taken from me by the game". When you see Hotline Miami, the physical violence is very much advertised. Every screen shot shows puddles of blood, every trailer shows you beating and shooting people without thought. The game is advertised as violent. It is not, however, advertised as containing rape. If you see a thousand screenshots of the game, you will doubtfully see even one that insinuates there is going to be sexual assault on a woman talked about in the game.
Sure, it may say "A Scene Of Rape" in some warning somewhere when the game is rated for release, but sliding something like that in feels far more sneaky than putting violence in. And it's that sneaky nature that makes this different. It changes the nature of the game without warning, and that abruptness seems unfair to me.
I see a lot of complaints about this being a feminist thing. That women should shut up and let art be art. But you need to seriously think for a second about this from a woman's perspective. Stop trying to defend everything as art and realize how someone else would feel accidentally stumbling upon something like this.
If you're a woman, playing a game, and suddenly you're tasked with victimizing another woman unexpectedly… do you think you wouldn't be a bit shaken? A bit upset that the game slipped in rape without warning you? Without once mentioning to you that this game contains sexual victimization of women? Do you not see how that could be a problem for someone? Someone that doesn't want to rape someone in a game? Cara and anyone else playing the game that disapproved of the scene have all the right to not be okay with it because of the blindsiding nature of it.
People are allowed to be offended. They're allowed to not want to do certain things in video games or watch certain things in movies. Does that mean games must never include these things? No. But they should at least give some kind of fair warning of these things existing. And most importantly, if they DO include these things, they should be handled delicately with the knowledge that you're treading into territory that could be harmful to your audience.
On one last side note while we're tackling the issue of feminism in games: enough berating women for daring to be upset when something like this happens. Everyone has sensibilities and everyone is entitled to fair representation in a medium. Sexual violence is an extremely rough subject to handle, and when it's handled poorly, it's perfectly alright to point that out without it being an attack on artistic merit.
So, yes. By all means, include rape in a game if it's that important to your artistic vision, to the point you're trying to make, but place a warning at the beginning of it so someone doesn't get completely caught off guard. "This game includes scenes of sexual violence" written clearly on the screen before it begins is plenty to at least give people an out before it happens. Television shows do it. Movies do it. Even the nightly news will occasionally warn you of images that may be damaging to some people before they show them, and the news is reporting real life events. This is especially important on digital-only games that don't include a physical package for ESRB ratings or warnings to be printed on.
Games can be art, and they can tread dangerous territory. But we need to start appreciating that this means there is a risk involved. There are people who will not want to be exposed to these things, and we need to respect that and allow enough room for them to comfortably avoid it. It's become fairly easy to avoid violence in a game, so let's work towards making subject matters like this easily avoidable as well. We need to start being more mature about how we treat these things, and less abrasive and defensive when we get called out for mishandling it.
It's only fair that we make it so everyone can enjoy games. Because I don't want to be excluded from the hobby I love, and I'm sure every gamer feels the same.

FREDERICK, Md. (AP) — A public transit advocacy group says a proposed 10-cent increase in Maryland's gasoline tax could help fund an expansion of MARC train service between Washington and Frederick County.
The Montgomery County-based Action Committee for Transit said Tuesday that some of the higher fuel tax revenue should be used to fund MARC's Growth and Investment Plan.
MARC adopted the plan in 2007. It includes a four-stage expansion of service on the Brunswick Line, which currently carries commuters from Frederick, Brunswick and Martinsburg, W.Va., into Washington on weekday mornings, and back to Frederick and Brunswick on weekday afternoons.
The final stage calls for all-day, two-way weekday service, with additional weekend trains by 2035.
(Copyright 2011 by The Associated Press. All Rights Reserved.)
No one in the government or the suburbs wants public transportation running out to Frederick, The Red line, etc because it will bring crime by all the porch monkeys just like the light rail did to Towson, Timonium & Arbutus & Glen Burnie. More coons = more crime & blight.
I'm being moderated for speaking the truth.
Something else Maryland need is some kind of public transportation between Frederick and BALTIMORE. The Greyhound service that ran between those cities for decades was discontinued some years ago, so that anyone traveling between them must now go to Washington and transfer–probably after a considerable wait.
Why should gasoline tax go to support public transportation? Public rail lines cannot supprot themselves and always need a subsidy. Gasoline taxes are ROAD TAXES, that is to say a tax levied on a particular product (gasoline) for a particular purpose (fixing roads), not for whatever ideas the politicians dream up next.

We do not have search engines inside our heads with which we can look up the calories of any food within seconds. Instead, in daily life ,we are left confused as to what to eat and what to avoid. Not with the zone diet, though! This diet was specifically developed keeping this social problem in mind. It takes the guesswork out of meal planning. Every food that you can think of is characterized into zones, so you can just pick and eat. No real effort involved. Weight loss was never so easy! Sounds interesting? Find out more! 1.

Do you find yourself trying different diets with no results? Are you tired of trying to lose weight? Have you started believing that diets are just talk? If you answered yes to any of these questions, then this book is for you! Did you know that the state of your body before you begin any diet affects the results you will get? I bet that you did not take that into account. Well, that is why this book is here. Believe it or not, your body has accumulated toxins over the years from an unhealthy diet. A diet cannot instantly undo years of that damage - unless you give it the help found in this book! A simple 15-day prediet system is an easy-to-follow plan that helps your body get back to point zero. Reverse all the damage so that your diet of choice can kick in instantly and do its job. Intrigued? Listen to find out more! 1. Language: English. Narrator: Dave Wright. Audio sample: http://samples.audible.de/bk/acx0/048593/bk_acx0_048593_sample.mp3. Digital audiobook in aax.
"It´s like an all-you-can-eat buffet with a little-known twist." Have you ever wished you could eat the food you want and not feel guilty about it afterward or feel afraid you just added another extra inch to your waistline? Or have you ever wished that your diet would not make you feel tired or hungry all the time? Ever wished that losing the excess weight and leading a healthy lifestyle were not so dang frustrating? For these same reasons, hundreds of people swear by the Volumetrics diet´s successful results, and the best part is this popular diet advocates eating more. Say again? Yes! The diet´s goal is to increase the amount or the volume of the food you usually eat with less calories. You are able to eat as much healthy and delicious food as you like and lose the excess weight. Let me give you a quick sample. A quarter cup of raisins and two-thirds of a cup of fresh whole grapes both contain 100 calories. The difference between the two is that you will be able to eat more with the grapes than with the raisins. You will understand the reasoning when you listen to this book. This is precisely how Volumetrics will fill up your plate and make you feel satisfied. You will be able to enjoy all the food groups - fruits, vegetables, lean protein, whole grains, and more. You can even enjoy chocolates, crackers, cookies, nuts, butter, cheese, and higher fat meat as a treat. You can drink your favorite alcohol in moderation as well. No extreme restrictions, as long as you keep to one simple rule. With some diets, you will be deprived. With Volumetrics, you can eat to your heart´s content and still lose weight. 1.

Refer a friend to the company and get rewarded with a car, an iPad, a motor cycle or cash. Every software company has recognised the importance of employee referral and encourages their employees to bring on board more of their friends. Through this, the recruitment cycle time is cut by 15-20 per cent. Companies also need not do the mundane cross-checking of an individual's credentials in the first round. Retention of the referred candidates was better than those coming from other recruitment means, including job portals. And, it is quite rewarding for employees who refer potential candidates.

These Crispy Parmesan Potato Wedges are a side dish fit for the most casual burger meal, or the most classy romantic dinner at home. If I would make these every single night, Pat would be one very happy husband. He could not believe how many of them we ate on our own, and he was pretty disappointed we didn't make him a double batch. Lucky for him I'll be making these again and again and again.
- 1/4 cup butter unsalted
- 1 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese grated
- 1/2 tsp black pepper grounded
Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
Place butter in an 11x15 inch jelly roll pan and place in oven until butter melts. Remove from oven as soon as butter has melted.
Halve each potato, lengthwise, and cut each half into 3 equal wedges. Dry potato wedges with a paper towel.
Sprinkle melted butter evenly and liberally with grated Parmesan, then sprinkle with pepper, seasonings and herbs. Press the cheese onto the butter.
Press each potato wedge, flesh-side down, firmly onto the Parmesan.
Lightly brush the exposed section of potato with olive oil.
Very lightly season the potatoes with coarse salt & freshly ground pepper and sprinkle with crushed herbs.
Place in preheated oven and bake 40-50 minutes.
*If needed to crisp the Parmesan crust, turn the heat up to 400 for the last 5-10 minutes.
**Transfer potatoes to a cooling rack and allow to cool at least 7 FULL MINUTES - this allows the cheese crust to stick to the potatoes.
Serve with your favorite dip. Buffalo, sour cream or Ranch dips work well.

Arbitrary detention
November 6, 2007
The Observatory for the Protection of Human Rights Defenders, a joint programme of the International Federation for Human Rights (FIDH) and the World Organisation Against Torture (OMCT), requests your urgent intervention in the following situation in Iran:
Description of the situation:
The Observatory has been informed by reliable sources about the arrest and subsequent arbitrary detention of Mr. Sohrab Razzaghi, President of Koneshgaran Davtalab (Volunteer Actors Institute), also known as the Iran CSO Training and Research Centre (ICTRC), an Iranian NGO supporting the development of the civil society in Iran.
According to the information received, on October 24, 2007, Mr. Razzaghi was arrested at his home, and brought to Section 209 of the Evin prison in Tehran. As of the date of issuing this appeal, no charges had been held against him.
The Observatory fears that Mr. Razzaghi's arbitrary detentionmight be directly aimed at preventing him from carrying out his human rights activities. Mr. Razzaghi has indeed just finished drafting a report on civil society in Iran, titled "Analysis of the status of the Iranian Civil Society: Opportunities, Challenges and Strategies", and was recently invited by the NGO "Frontline Protection of Human Rights Defenders" to attend their annual platform, which will take place in Dublin from November 22 to 24, 2007.
The Observatory further recalls that Mr. Razzaghi has already been targeted by the authorities in the past. On March 15, 2007, the Volunteer Actors Institute, together with two other NGOs[1][1], was shut down, sealed, and barred from further activities, following orders issued by the Ministry of Intelligence and the Tehran Revolutionary Court. On the same day, Mr. Razzaghi was interrogated for several hours, and security officials confiscated some of his personal belongings and froze the ICTRC as well as his personal bank accounts.
Mr. Razzaghi was a professor at the Allameh University until he was dismissed from this position following the election of Mr. Mahmoud Ahmadinejad in 2005. He also served as deputy for NGO affairs with the Ministry of the Interior under Former President Mohammad Khatami.
The Observatory expresses its deep concern about the increasing repression of the Iranian authorities against human rights defenders, in particular pro-reform students, women's rights activists and intellectuals.
The Observatory also wishes to insist on the fact that Iran committed to "uphold the highest standards in the promotion and protection of human rights"[2][2] by presenting its candidacy to the Human Rights Council 2006 election and had insisted in this regard on the fact that the country had "continuously put great efforts into safeguarding the status and inherent dignity of the human person as well as the promotion and protection of human rights and fundamental freedoms"[3][3]. In order to ensure the continuation of these efforts, the Observatory urges the Islamic Republic of Iran to conform in all circumstances with these pledges and with international human rights standards.
Actions requested:
Please write to the authorities in Iran urging them to:
i. Guarantee in all circumstances the physical and psychological integrity of Mr. Sohrab Razzaghi;
ii. Release Mr. Razzaghi immediately and unconditionally since his detention is arbitrary as it merely aims at sanctioning her human rights activities;
iii. Put an end to all acts of harassment against all Iranian human rights defenders;
iv. Conform with the provisions of the UN Declaration on Human Rights Defenders, adopted by the General Assembly of the United Nations on December 9, 1998, especially its Article 1, which states that "everyone has the right, individually and in association with others, to promote and to strive for the protection and realisation of human rights and fundamental freedoms at the national and international levels", Article 6.b, which provides that "everyone has the right, individually and in association with others […] freely to publish, impart or disseminate to others views, information and knowledge on all human rights and fundamental freedoms", and Article 12.2, which provides that "the State shall take all necessary measures to ensure the protection by the competent authorities of everyone, individually and in association with others, against any violence, threats, retaliation, de facto or de jure adverse discrimination, pressure or any other arbitrary action as a consequence of his or her legitimate exercise of the rights referred to in the present Declaration";
v. More generally, ensure in all circumstances the respect for human rights and fundamental freedoms in accordance with the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and with international and regional human rights instruments ratified by Iran.
· Leader of the Islamic Republic, His Excellency Ayatollah Sayed Ali Khamenei, The Office of the Supreme Leader, Shoahada Street, Qom, Islamic Republic of Iran, Faxes: + 98.21.649.5880 / 21.774.2228, Email: email@example.com / firstname.lastname@example.com / firstname.lastname@example.com;
Please also write to the diplomatic mission or embassy of Iran in your respective country.
Geneva-Paris, November 6, 2007
Kindly inform us of any action undertaken quoting the code of this appeal in your reply.
The Observatory, a FIDH and OMCT venture, is dedicated to the protection of Human Rights Defenders and aims to offer them concrete support in their time of need. The Observatory was the winner of the 1998 Human Rights Prize of the French Republic.

Reported Stabbing Leads Police to Caballero Party
SAN ANGELO, TX — San Angelo Police are investigating an aggravated assault in the 600 block of 37th Street. While there, police were met with several men in cowboy garb along with several trailers full of horses. It may have been a Labor Day celebration.
Police said the aggravated assault was unrelated to the caballero gathering, but they did find one who displayed evidence of public intoxication. He was arrested.
Above: Caballero arrested in north San Angelo. (LIVE! Photo/John Basquez)
Meanwhile, police dispatched their own Criminal Investigations Division to gather evidence at the scene for the unrelated stabbing. Police blocked off 37th St. and Bonham St. while the assault investigation was conducted. This incident happened last night at around 11 p.m.

These are the windows of the shops in Bell Buckle. I thought they were so pretty and Brad was kind enough to walk downtown with me last night after I got back from seeing a movie with Jennifer, Sam, and Claire. We enjoyed walking down and reminiscing a bit about our early dating days when we used to walk around downtown at night. In fact Brad gave me his class ring on a bench in front of one of the stores 30 years ago. And, everyone says, "Awwww" LOL

he was, in a word…"imperfect".
he used to call me "difficult" …but i never meant to be.
he was the first person that i knew without a doubt, was absolutely crazy about me…smitten with me despite my flaws. he saw "me".
he made me laugh….not only because he was funny, but because he saw life as a humorous and often absurd adventure. irony was never wasted on him.
he made mistakes. plenty of them. so i learned that love needs to be resilient and generous. he could never come to terms with life's little inconsistencies and inconveniences so the bitter and sweet where held in constant tension.
he carried beauty in his soul. he was haunted by it's lure and elusiveness…always looking to satisfy the longing that could not be filled.
he was a poet in every sense of the word. capturing poignant moments with lens and pen. always pursuing the deeper meaning and noticing the small and broken down things. nostalgia coursed through his veins.
he was afraid of failure as men often are…but he was more afraid of missing life in the moment and hopelessly curious at all it's mysteries and complexities. my words are an ode to his imprint on my soul .
fishing was his religion. patiently waiting for the evening hatch . waiting for the waters to glass over with calm ,warm light … to cast his fly in search of wild trout. he was lost and found in every sense in the rivers' beguiling waters. following many a setting sun …until weariness set in. but that is often the price of those stricken with idealism . hoping in possibilities …like waiting for the fish to rise , can take it's toll on a heart . until the final toll of losing.
for daddy…who taught me to never stop learning. to live honestly. to never settle for a life without risk and adventure. to ask questions. to be brave and to cry when i need to. to understand rivers…and know where to find the fish.

Acne clearance
Acne is a condition characterized by obstructed sebaceous glands, pimples, and sometimes deeper cysts or nodules that occur on the face, neck, chest, back, shoulders and upper arms. Acne begins in adolescence and usually affects most teenagers at some time. However, adults too, can suffer with acne. When severe, acne can often result in scarring. Even less severe cases can lead to scarring, if not properly treated. The most common form of acne is called acne vulgarize and is characterized by inflammatory lesions (pimples).
Until recently, patients with persistent acne, have been treated with only topical or sometimes systemic antibiotics. Recent studies have demonstrated however that certain discrete light spectra can trigger endogenic porphyrins that naturally destroy P.acnes bacteria. And in just a fraction of the time it typically takes for antibiotics to work!
Eight, brief treatments over just four weeks is all it takes to significantly improve a patient's acne. This is three times faster than common antibiotics. Superior AFT treatments for acne are safe and involve no side effects or patient discomfort.
Patients see results right away with most patients achieving 80% clearance in just four weeks. Because our AFT acne treatment is used only in the affected area, treatments are extremely fast - usually less than 3 minutes. Other acne photo-therapies deliver extremely low doses of blue light spread out over 10 - 20 minutes per session. Our AFT acne treatment uses a higher concentration of similar wavelengths, delivered only to the infected areas. While the dose is similar, the treatment is much faster.
What is Acne and how common is it?
Acne is an inflammatory skin condition that effects over 80% of adults. It can appear on the face, chest and neck in a persons teens. If it remains untreated it can cause permanent damaged skin commonly known as acne scarring. An outbreak of acne can reoccur every 4 to 5 years and around 30% of suffers continue with acne issues into their adulthood.
What causes it?
Acne is triggered by the over active Sebaceous gland. These oil glands are simulated by hormone testosterone. These oils created by the glands can create a blockage to the gland and pores causing a stickiness allowing bacteria to collect and damage the once healthy skin.
b) Light destroys the bacteria and causes a shrinkage of the inflamed sebaceous glands.
c) Pustules begin to clear and the skin condition improves.
What are the Symptoms?
These block and partially blocked pores are the catalyst for all inflammatory and non inflammatory spots evidenced by lesions and aggressive red spots. The body reactive to these by sending white bloods cells to destroy these and this creates the pus on the spot.
Some persons never get the redness but there pores collect the dirt and bacteria to form blackheads and whiteheads. Others get painful swollen cysts which eventually leads to acne scarring if left untreated.
How do the treatments work?
There are several treatment available for Acne. The range, combination and sequence of treatments for each individual will need to be assessed based on that persons skin condition are their stage in the acne outbreak. It is important to seek early professional advice to prevent long term skin damage.
A typical course of treatment that would be prescribed would include:
1. Acne gels consisting of active cleansing ingredients.
Bioglycolic Oily Skin Cleansing gel followed by Acne Gel solutions that are 100% oil free are used to continually absorb excess surface oils. Medical Micro dermabrasion is used to exfoliate the skin.
Skin peels can be used to encourage the growth of new skin once the Acne is under control. Suitable for all skin types, this treatment addresses the underlying problems, not just the symptoms, and offer maximum benefit with minimal irritation.
2. Advanced Fluorescent Technology (AFT)
Can be used to target and stimulate the body to generate more collagen to repair the skin cells and eliminate redness. Antibiotics can help reduce inflammation however this is not recommended as a long term solution as dependancy on any drug is unhealth.
The combination of these treatments can get the Acne under control and on the decline within a few weeks.
What happens if the Symptoms re-occur?
The treatments describe above focus on the ability to tackle the symptoms of the Acne. Each persons body will naturally produce their own level of oils from their glands and therefore new outbreaks of Acne are possible.
How does Advanced Fluorescent Technology Work?
The Advanced Fluorescent Technology system releases yellow, green and red light that is emitted in a series of short pulses. The blue light destroys the bacteria that live in the skin and cause acne, while the red light directly targets the overactive sebaceous glands that cause outbreaks of pustules: This targeted heating deep in the skin causes shrinkage of the inflamed sebaceous glands and helps to prevent over-production of excess sebum.
How is the treatment carried out?
You will be asked to put on goggles to protect your eyes. A layer of chilled gel is applied to the area to cool the skin and guide the light. The light applicator is placed onto the skin and a short pulse of light is released. The applicator is then moved to the
neighbouring area and the process is repeated until the whole area is treated. The chilled gel is removed and the area is moisturised. Each pulse of light treats a large area of skin and so the duration of the treatment is very short.
Am I Suitable for treatment?
Almost everyone can be treated, apart from very dark skinned or tanned individuals. Pregnant women or people taking the acne treatment Roaccutane should
not be treated.
How Does the Treatment Feel?
The light energy is absorbed by the skin, and heats it up very quickly, creating a sharp, short-lived pinprick sensation. No anaesthesia is required, other than cooling the skin and most patients describe the discomfort as moderate and acceptable.
What should I expect after the treatment?
Redness and a slight warming sensation are normal after treatment. A cooling pack will be applied to the skin to ease these symptoms. It will be necessary to avoid sun exposure or use a high protection sunscreen for 2 weeks after the treatment.
How many treatments are necessary?
The treated area can become quite red immediately after treatment. However, most patients experience no side effects and the redness usually disappears within a couple of hours. Very rarely the skin may become lighter or darker, or a small blister may form. It is possible that some hair loss will occur in the area treated, and it could be permanent, so men should consider this possibility before agreeing to treatment of their beard area. The number of treatments required varies from person to person, but typically 6 Advanced Fluorescent Technology and 6 Glycolic acid peel treatments will result in significant improvement, depending on the severity of the condition. Advanced Fluorescent Technology treatments should take place fortnightly, with glycolic acid peel between treatments. How long does each treatment take?
A typical treatment session will take in the region of 30 minutes. Typically Advanced Fluorescent Technology treatment is combined with glycolic acid facial peel treatments for maximum results.
What is the cost?
The cost of each treatment varies. The cost is directly associated with the time it takes to treat certain areas. At the Hampshire Laser Clinic, we can offer very competitive and affordable laser treatments because we only use fast, state of the art lasers.

Oh yes! Your running thought of the day
This thought of the day resonates totally with me.
How about you?
I've given up trying to explain why I do what I do and love it so much.
Those 5.00 starts.
The early nights.
The missed parties, because of needing that early night.
Running in Delhi's extreme temperatures.
So it's good to know that I'm not alone.
