Re: Obama to set elders against the poor by going after...
The problem with that tactic is that Medicaid will still be subject to some pretty extreme cuts regardless, due to both "sequestration" and the appropriations processes for 2013 and 2014, where the GOTP House will most certainly attempt to trade off defense sequestration for even deeper cuts in Medicaid.
Not to mention, if Repub governors make due with their threats to opt out, then you will have the politically dicey situation where a recent immigrant gaining citizenship will get the benefit of the Medicaid expansion subsidies, but long term citizens might lose their benefits due to the "donut hole" situation of being over the threshhold of qualifying for Medicaid, but not making enough to qualify for the subsidies. The Right will have a field day decrying Medicaid then for "giving free welfare to illegals" while "real Americans" are denied basic coverage...and will use that to kill the entire "ObamaCare" plan and return to the "free market"/"personal responsibility" model of allowing Big Insura and Big Pharma to screw sick people, restore health care as a privilige for only the wealthy, and push everyone else into a dessicated Medicaid/triage emergency room/debt peonage system. (With added protection for corrupt doctors and corporate leeches through capping malpractice suits, allowing cross-state health plan portability (the "race to the bottom" among states) and encouraging "casino capitalism" through privatized "health savings accounts".)
In other words...attempting to save one at the expense of the other simply leads to killing BOTH.
More and more, the Democrats and President Obama render themselves useless, if not useful idiots of the Right.

BUCHAREST, Romania (AP) — Zookeepers wielding pieces of melon have lured back two escaped monkeys to their home in a Transylvanian zoo, but three more are still believed to be on the run in a nearby forest.
Andras Kopacz, curator of the Targu Mures zoo in central Romania, told The Associated Press Tuesday that the five Japanese macacques gnawed a hole in their fence last week and escaped into an oak forest.
Two were recaptured Monday by zookeepers with pieces of melon. "They are in good condition; nothing is wrong with them," Kopacz said by telephone.
Two adults and a cub are still on the loose, he said, adding he was confident they would be brought back soon.
He said the monkeys can become aggressive if they are attacked.

SPA's Public Administration and Policy Faculty and Students Sweep National Honors
The Department of Public Administration and Policy has enjoyed a season of overwhelming honors for faculty, doctoral students, and recent doctoral alumni. Two faculty and numerous doctoral students have recently been recognized with national awards.
"This is tremendous recognition for the work of our faculty and reflects the top flight students they attract to AU," said department chair Jocelyn Johnston. "Our academic achievements which are built on a history of scholarship in public administration and policy have really expanded in the past year. We are extremely proud of our faculty, students and alumni."
David H. Rosenbloom, Distinguished Professor of Public Administration and Policy, was a 2012 recipient of the Leslie Whittington Award for Excellence in Teaching presented by the National Association of Schools of Public Affairs and Administration (NASPAA). The award honors those who make outstanding contributions to public service education through excellence in teaching over a sustained period of time. Rosenbloom joins department colleague Robert Durant in this honor; Durant received the award in 2007.
Assistant Professor of Public Administration and Policy Lewis Faulk was awarded the 2012 Gabriel G. Rudney Memorial Award for Outstanding Dissertation by the Association for Research on Nonprofit Organizations & Voluntary Action. The award is bestowed upon one dissertation per year that "contributes to the advancement of theory, conceptualization, research, or practice in an area closely related to nonprofit organizations or voluntary action." It is the highest honor awarded to a dissertation in the field of nonprofit studies.
John Marvel, SPA/PhD '12, was honored with a 2012 Emerging Scholar Award by NASPAA. This award recognizes PhD candidates and recent graduates who are "exploring the boundaries of our knowledge, developing new methods for advancing our understanding of the public sphere, and seeking answers to new and enduring questions about policy and administration."
Marvel defended his dissertation in August and is spending the 2012-13 academic year as a full-time instructor in DPAP. His research focuses on public management broadly, with particular interests in work motivation and turnover among public-sector employees.
William Resh, SPA/PhD '11, received two national awards for his dissertation, Rethinking the Administrative Presidency: Trust, Intellectual Capital, and Appointee-Careerist Relations. His dissertation was directed by Prof. Robert Durant.
Resh received the 2012 award for the best dissertation in public and nonprofit management from the Academy of Management, as well as the 2012 George Edwards Award for the best dissertation on the presidency from the American Political Science Association.
Resh is currently an assistant professor in the School of Public & Environmental Affairs at Indiana University. His research and teaching focus on public management, executive branch politics, administrative rulemaking, and organization theory.
Two DPAP doctoral students will receive awards at the upcoming meeting of the Association for Research on Nonprofit Organizations & Voluntary Action. Doctoral candidate Jaclyn Schede Piatak was selected as a 2012 Doctoral Fellow, and second-year doctoral student Mandi Janis was chosen as a 2012 Emerging Scholar. Both students will also present papers at the conference.
Third-year doctoral student Javier Bronfman was awarded a fellowship for the 2012 Ronald Coase Institute, an annual workshop for promising early-career scholars in institutional analysis. Bronfman will attend this year's workshop in Santiago, Chile.
Doctoral candidate Jiaqi Liang was selected by the Inter-university Consortium for Political and Social Research (ICPSR) to receive the 2012 scholarship for graduate students in public administration and policy. Liang was the only student selected from all applicants in public administration and policy programs. The scholarship covered Liang's attendance at ICPSR's annual summer program in quantitative methods of social research at the University of Michigan.

Like the waterhole we sit over during extremely dry conditions, the mock scrapes we create in our favorite buck woods, or the trail of doe urine we strategically plot out to cross in front of our tree stand, write this down: It is all bait. To listen to someone attempt to deny this is theater of the absurd in spades.
Too funny.
I certainly don't need to consult old Mr. Webster to confirm that, like the worm on my hook, or the commercial food plot mix I plant, these wildlife attractants are as pure and unadulterated bait as was Mrs. Nugent's exercise routine, hairdo, shaved legs, choice of clothing and make-up rituals in preparation for our initial encounter.
Know it. Admit it. Celebrate it. For it is natural, and it is perfect. And wonderful.
Deer do not need bait thrown around to have nose-to-nose contact. Their lives are nose-to-nose contact … nose-to-butt contact, nose-to-eyeball contact, nose-to-ear contact, with or without man's involvement. Find a person who says otherwise, and you are looking at a liar or a fool.
I do it all, and I love it all. Including cleverly positioning an automatic feeder to spray corn into shadowy groves where I might get a close shot at a doe or a buck at some point. Not only are all these strategies over-the-top exciting and absolutely fair chase, but, astonishingly, we can find fellow hunters who would like to ban one or more of these legal methodologies for some strange, selfish, unsophisticated, small-minded and unfounded reasons.
Get straps, and get them the way you like. Whatever your personal choice in hunting, have at it, I am with you. This includes the farmer or rancher who could care less about "sport" or "challenge", but simply wants some delicious, succulent venison for the grill. Enough with the "ethics" hysteria. You want meat … get meat. Buy a license. Eat venison. Have a nice day.
We are facing many problems in America, and hunting deer over bait is not one of them. In our beloved hunting lifestyle, the real problems are illogical, counterproductive gamelaws that are designed to impede recruitment and create attrition. Sunday hunting bans, minimum age limits, shooting hours, crossbow bans, bait, the vulgar practice of hiring sharpshooters and government hunters to kill our game, three shell limits on migratory fowl, bow and gun case laws, no hunting in state and national parks, and so many more inconsistent, nonsensical rules that have nothing to do with safety or science.
Deer corn is not on the list, or at least shouldn't be. Believe me. Until we unite to open the gates to more and new hunters, we will be in danger. We must unite and focus on meaningful priorities and leave the squawking to the antis.

BUENOS AIRES, Argentina – The governor of Argentina's Buenos Aires province says at least 25 people have been killed by flooding overnight, bringing the overall death toll from days of torrential rains to 31.
Gov. Daniel Scioli says many of the deaths involved people who drowned after trying to take shelter in their cars in Tolusa, a suburb of the provincial capital of La Plata.
Argentina's YPF oil company says the rains also flooded the country's largest refinery, causing a fire that took hours to put out. The refinery has suspended operations as a result, and the company says it has a team evaluating how to get it restarted again.

No, it started a few weeks after Bush took office -- a time when the Bush administration was ignoring the terrorist threat. So it was about something else, and was a high enough priority to plan out during the transition. (Can you say "political spying?")
One telecom company, Qwest, refused because it was flat-out illegal. The Bush administration punished them, blocked federal contracts, and in an early indicator of what was to come from the politicized Bush Justice Department, they prosecuted Qwest's CEO on trumped-up charges.

Paula Deen's empire continues to crumble.
Paula Deen's empire continues to crumble.
Goodbye, Food Network.
The channel was among the first to cut ties with Deen. It certainly was not the last business to do so. But how far can someone fall whose business reportedly earned $17 million in 2012?
So long, Smithfield Foods.
But when, like Deen, you admit to uttering the N-word as if there was nothing wrong with it and you admit to suggesting you would like to have a southern-style wedding with black men in long-sleeve white dress shirts, black pants and black bow ties tap dancing around like in the Shirley Temple days, there are certain consequences.
C'ya, Walmart.
Using the N-word is bad enough, but it is reprehensible that Deen would think it was a good idea to have a party in which black men are dressed as servants from one of the worst periods in the history of America.
Later, Home Depot.
It was a no-brainer for the businesses associated with Deen to drop her. Despite what her apologists may argue, her image is damaged and those businesses were right to end any association with her. Deen's association with those businesses was based on her carefully crafted image as that folksy Southern woman who would serve you a slice of pie and sweet tea. She was non-offensive, funny, a bit sassy and maybe she could even be described as wholesome.
That's what we were sold, but we don't really know her.
Farewell, Caesars Entertainment.
Her image became tarnished when it was revealed in January 2012 that she had Type II diabetes. That was proof that all of that butter and sugar-laden food she made and ate was not good for you after all. But Deen turned lemons into lemonade, even gaining an endorsement deal with a drug company.
Adieu, Target.
But that all changed so quickly for her when details of a deposition of Deen's testimony in a lawsuit filed by a former employee became public. That image was shattered.
In the same manner that Michael Richards, who portrayed Cosmo Kramer on "Seinfeld," was damaged by his N-word-laden rant at the Comedy Club in Los Angeles in 2006. In the same manner that Tiger Woods' image was damaged by his serial philandering being revealed in 2009. And in the same way the other celebrities who sell us a certain image only to have it quashed through their own doing, they have consequences to pay.
Richards' career took a huge hit. Think of the last time you heard of him other than in a "Seinfeld" rerun. Woods also took a hit, losing endorsements and struggling both on and off the golf course.
Arrivederci, Novo Nordisk.
Yet, this is a society of second chances.
Again, look at Woods as an example. He is back among golfing leaders and he has regained endorsements. Look at any of the other public figures who failed. Like Anthony Weiner, who resigned from Congress two years ago after his lewd online behavior was revealed. Weiner is running for mayor of New York City.
Toodles, Sears.
Even Martha Stewart, who spent time in prison in 2004 for lying to investigators about a stock transaction, has rebounded.
So in all likelihood, Deen, too, will receive a second chance. She may not return to the scale she once was, but it would be a second chance nevertheless. I mean, if Jim Bakker, the former PTL Club host who went down in a sex and fraud scandal, could return to the air, anything is possible.
Ciao, J.C. Penney, Walgreen and Ballantine Books.
No doubt Deen's re-emergence will come after she has had time to carefully reconstruct her image so no one knows what she is really thinking. But only after she has suffered the consequences of her own actions.

Washington – A bipartisan group of House members are close to putting the final touches on a comprehensive immigration bill and have already met with party leaders to brief them, aides said Friday.
A spokesman for Republican House Speaker John Boehner said that Boehner had a good talk Friday with Republicans in the group and that the lawmakers have made real progress.
The group's four Democrats met Thursday with Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi, and Pelosi's spokesman said she's optimistic about the prospects for reform.
The group had hoped to release their bill around the time of the State of the Union last month, but now an aide says they will aim for early April, once Congress returns from a two-week recess.
That's the same timeline that a negotiating group in the Senate is on. The Senate group has gotten more attention because House GOP leaders are expected to wait to see what if anything the Senate passes on immigration before taking any action on the issue.
A sweeping immigration bill is a tougher lift in the Republican-controlled House because of the conservatives who dominate the Republican conference, and members of the House immigration group have been struggling to write a bill that can have broad appeal. It remains unclear how they will handle a pathway to citizenship for the estimated 11 million illegal immigrants already in the country.
Based on reporting by the Associated Press.

Are you going to Creative Expo at Olympia at the weekend? The Saturday is video day.... PM me your email if you need more but registration is free. There will be stallholders there though whether they will have what you want is anyone's guess - however - there will be people who can answer your questions even if they can't sell you what you need.CharlyPS - IMO - for what you seem to be after, mini jack is not the end of the world. If you are set upon HD and XLR however, look at the Sony A1.
That's the one.
Im now being told that it has poor low light and colour (one chip) and lack of user controls ..Can you comment on..Lack of user controlsHow wide it would be (in FF DSLR eqivilent ) with a wide angle 0.5 or fisheye adapter I spose im after about an 18mmTIASMM
Hi,I have the Sony A1E and it is great little camera IF the light is decent, in low light, it is very poor. A lot of the controls are adjustable through the touch screen menu only which is not great for making quick changes. No idea about the wide angle as I have not used one on it. I also think that it is difficult to expose properly (I'm forever blowing out the highlights), also, it can be a challenge with the autofocus as it does seem to do a bit of hunting at times. Another downer for the camera is that it is electronic image stabilisation and not optical stabilisation.All in all though, it is an excellent little camcorder and the mic inputs do give you the opportunity for recording good quality sound.Cheers John
Video seems to have largely moved from CCD to CMOS sensors and correspondingly, there are few companies making 3 chip gear. I know panasonic do. The bits and pieces I've read suggest that the reduction in individual chip size is more detrimental to low light usage than a single chip.
Low light - Havnt these film people heard of lights ??Before the D3 I spent my life lighting everything (for stills)- Im not after filming candles at kiddies partiesDifficult to expose properly - is that not a major flawIs there not a button for 'AE lock' - wave it around a bit until you have the right exsposure - lockIs there a focus lock buttonAny more commentDo you think you could make basic adequate video once the limitations are understoodTo SKRGRRLyou are probably right - all these cams are a bit rubbish - kinder egg - roll on scarlet or the D3x or wahteverWHy isnt there and FM2 of cameras - focus, aperture, shutter speed, FPS, ISO, that is all the variables no ?Anyway lets concentrate if you are kind enough on what I can buy nowSMM
One thing you should be aware of, the A1 is basically a consumer camera with prosumer audio added on,

Changes to Contributed Papers and Poster Presentations
In response to requests to make national meetings more fruitful experiences, AAPThas elevate the status of contributed posters at its national meetings. Poster presentations offer a better way to communicate ideas. They give presenters more time to interact with interested parties, offer participants more time for questions and comments, and generally increase visibility of the presenter's work. Poster sessions allow participants to scan many posters and to then spend quality time studying posters of greatest interest to them. The changes outlined here will affect only contributed presentations and will not affect the lengths or number of invited talks at national meetings.
Planning to contribute a title and abstract for an AAPT Meeting? There are two options:
1. You can contribute a poster (preferred mode of presentation).
2. You can contribute an oral presentation.

Adaptive management is a new term used to describe methods of tailoring nutrient applications to crop needs. As Dr. Tom Morris relates in this interview at the Online Farm Network Conference at Iowa State University, USDA has helped establish a Nutrient Coordinating Committee on Adaptive Management for Nutrient Management. Morris outlined what's being done to reduce nutrient runoff in major livestock producing areas during the recent conference, which is sponsored by the Iowa Soybean Association in Ames, Iowa.

Just before Christmas in 1997, as a tumultuous stock-market crisis ravaged emerging markets in every corner of the globe, readers of the Wall Street Journal were treated to some good news: Russia was going to emerge from the mess unscathed. While conceding that "few debt markets outside Southeast Asia were hit harder by recent financial turmoil than Russia's," the Journal's Moscow bureau chief, Steve Liesman, added quickly that "many analysts believe an equally strong rebound may be in the offing." Moreover, Liesman wrote, investors were rapidly coming to the realization that "Russia's problems are far different and, for the moment, less dire than those that undermined Asian economies." The December 16 piece was headlined, "Russian Debt Markets Due for Rebound."
A few weeks later, Liesman and the Journal used even stronger language to trumpet Russia's economic merits. They chided investors who were too busy "fretting over Asia's financial crisis" to notice what they called "one of the decade's major economic events: the end of Russia's seven-year recession."
The Journal's prediction was more than a little precipitate. Instead of getting better, things in Russia got worse. A lot worse. Nine months after Liesman declared that Russia's debt market was due for a rebound, and just over seven months after proclaiming the end of the Russian recession, the Journal–like most US newspapers–found itself having to explain the near-total collapse of Russia's economy and capital markets.
What is most astonishing is not how badly Liesman and the Journal misreported one of the most tragic economic stories of the decade as it was happening. The amazing thing is that they won a Pulitzer Prize for their reporting of the Russian crisis after the country had gone down in flames. Liesman, who left the Moscow bureau in April of 1998 to return to New York, was called back to Moscow after the crisis to help write a series of Journal pieces on how the Russian financial collapse happened. These articles completely contradicted the body of work he had left behind, leaving the impression that the collapse had been inevitable all along.
While it's true that throughout the mid-nineties nearly the entire Western press corps had painted a similar picture of allegedly successful, if bumpy, market reform in Russia, the Wall Street Journal's version was even more deluded, and more inappropriately enthusiastic, than the competition's. Furthermore, few if any of those other outlets, with the possible exception of the New York Times, have as much influence internationally as the Journal. And none of those other reporters won the Pulitzer Prize. To win that, the Journal ought to have been ahead of the pack throughout; as it was, the paper's coverage only stood out as the most spectacular wreck in a huge pileup.

Adam West In New Butterfinger CampaignPosted by Adam West in: Advertising // Appearances // Online Appearances // Videos on: Aug 15, 2010
Adam plays a role in the recently launched Butterfinger campaign. The fun, absurdly wacky campaign features the antics of the Buttefinger Defense League composed of Erik Estrada, Lou Ferrigno and Charisma Carpenter. Their mission, to track down who's behind a string of Butterfinger thefts plaguing the city. Hmm…I wonder who could be masterminding this nefarious plot?

Tommy Mac & 'Rough Cut'
A Real Opportunity
It was that secretary that caught the eye of Bob Vila while he was at NBSS to record a segment on the school for his television show. In fact, Vila was so impressed with the work of the NBSS student that he kept a close eye on Tommy.
Someone from Vila's camp handed Tommy a camera and suggested that he film his work in the shop and then post it online. The camera loved Tommy, and Tommy was more than comfortable with the camera – this was his first real taste of what would become his life's calling.
Later, Vila extended an invitation to all students to bring their finished furniture work to fill the rooms of the home at which he was filming. Tommy hustled to get as many pieces as he could –11 in all – and that can-do attitude gave him a taste of fame. As Vila strolled through the home filming the segment, Tommy was mentioned often as his many furniture pieces were shown on camera.
More Connections
Upon completing his program at NBSS, Tommy decided to stay around for another term. That also proved to be a great decision. The incoming class just so happened to include a recently retired WGBH executive. Information was passed on, introductions were made and Tommy met Laurie Donnelly, executive producer of lifestyle programming for WGBH.
With his North Bennet certification achieved, Tommy began conversations with Eli Cleveland, a new student at NBSS and the guy destined to become Tommy's right-hand man. Cleveland was a regular contributor of comments on Tommy's blog, and Tommy asked him to stop by the shop to talk more and to possibly work together on a project. The two hit it off and continued to work in the shop while posting online and building a following. (Read more about Cleveland in "From College Student to Technical Advisor" below.)
As Tommy's woodworking advanced, he made it a point to keep Donnelly in the loop and updated with anything new in his career with the occasional e-mail to keep his name fresh in her mind. When the time came to consider a new woodworking show (after Norm Abram announced his retirement) – Donnelly immediately thought of Tommy.
WGBH, Donnelly and Tommy worked out the details and an announcement was made about the new show in February 2010. Meanwhile, WGBH was searching for a show sponsor.
So Tommy picked up the phone and placed a call to Jeff Forbes, president of Woodcraft Supply. Tommy said he began the conversation with: "If someone would have come along 21 years ago and said Norm (Abram) was going to do a show, would you want in? What would you say?"
On St. Patrick's day in 2010, Tommy learned that Woodcraft Supply would sponsor the show. "It was the greatest day for an Irish guy," Tommy said.

The Safest Way to Update Sony Drivers
There are a number of typical alerts along with other messages that you might get in the driver updating procedure, several of which I've paraphrased and listed right here together with guidance on what you can do:
QUESTION: I reformatted my Sony VAIO hard drive. I re-installed almost all Windows 7 updates, then installed all VAIO software updates, like VAIO Care updates, all through VAIO Update Manager. The latest update offered to me on that date was VAIO Care Update version 8.4.4.09181, which was automatically downloaded and installed properly. Under my Control Panel's "add/remove programs", it also shows that this is the latest update installed. MY PROBLEM is that VAIO Update keeps nagging me to install an earlier version of VAIO Care (8.4.3.07161). Obviously, it will not install because it is an earlier version number than the one I already have installed. I verified through VAIO Update Manager (under installation history tab) that the installation was successful. When I clicked on the version I have installed (8.4.4.09181), I am directed to a Sony webpage that says that it's an "invalid entry" (http: //esupport.sony.com/US/perl/swu-download.pl? upd_filename=EP0000323829.exe). When navigating to the appropriate Sony webpage for driver updates for my model number, that update version number is also missing. Did Sony withdraw an update? If so, what am I supposed to do about it? When I Google the version number I've got currently installed, I can find a few entries listed; when I click on any of them, they direct me to pages that no more exist. Can anyone at Sony give me input on this? Thanks.
ANSWER: I checked the site and the most recent version that only reveals is the Up-date VAIO Care Update 8.4.3.07161. This is why the 8.4.3.07161 model keeps on turning up. I can't really inform why Vaio Care 8.4.4.09181 automatically updates on the laptop, while you said in the previous post. What you can do is now to un-install/reinstall VAIO Care then following reinstalling, download all the up-dates on the website.
I really hope this helps.

Forcing nomads to farm — the Utes' sad story
In "The Utes Must Go!" Peter R. Decker explores how fear-mongering politicians and settlers suppressed the Ute bands in the 1800s
Americans today shudder at the concept of ethnic cleansing, but in the 19th century, it was widely considered a noble endeavor, at least where Indians were concerned. The Utes Must Go! by Peter R. Decker chronicles the sorry treatment of that particular tribe. Taking its title from an 1870s Denver Tribune editorial, the book recounts how fear-mongering politicians ousted the Utes, a group of disparate, far-ranging bands, from their traditional territories in Colorado and Utah.
For two centuries, the Utes coexisted with their Spanish and Mexican neighbors, but American settlers, pumped up by Manifest Destiny, were not interested in amicable relations with "a dissolute vagabondish, brutal and ungrateful race (that) ought to be wiped from the face of the earth," as the Rocky Mountain News opined in 1863. Not all whites wanted to see the Utes exterminated; some were bent on "reforming" them. Equating Christianity, agriculture and capitalism with civilization, they sought to turn the nomadic Utes from communal hunter-gatherers into deed-holding farmers.
The effort was doomed. In a fascinating chapter, Decker describes how Nathan Meeker, a reformer who had participated in two failed utopian communities, became the Indian agent for the White River Reservation in northern Colorado. Meeker's obsession with forcing the Utes to farm led to the 1879 battle at Milk Creek. U.S. Army troops invaded the reservation after Meeker alleged he'd been assaulted by one Indian who didn't want a valuable horse pasture plowed. Scores died in the ensuing combat, and Meeker and a number of other agency civilians were killed or abducted. The consequent outcry led to the Utes' removal from their lush homelands to arid reservations in Utah and southern Colorado.
Well-researched and readable, The Utes Must Go! is a tribute to a distinct but neglected people.

This fabulous dough produces tender, cookie-like hamantaschen. The dough is versatile and can be used with any filling flavor you choose. Two pie-inspired filling to try are Apple Pie and Pecan Pie.
Hamantaschen Dough:
2 and 3/4 cups flour
1/2 cup sugar
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted margarine, cold
2 eggs
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1-1/2 to 2 tablespoons soy milk
1 egg beaten with 1 tablespoon water, for brushing
Cinnamon sugar, for sprinkling (Apple Pie Hamantaschen)
6-ounces bittersweet or semisweet chocolate, melted, for drizzling (Pecan Pie Hamantaschen)
Apple Pie or Pecan Pie filling (recipes below)
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Line 2 cookie sheets with parchment paper and set aside.
In the bowl of a food processor, place the flour, sugar, salt and baking powder and pulse to combine. Stop the food processor, add the cold margarine in chunks, and process the mixture until it resembles coarse cornmeal. Stop the processor again and add the eggs, vanilla and 1 ½ tablespoons of the soy milk, then process the mixture until it comes together and forms one large ball of dough, adding ½ teaspoon more soy milk at a time if more moisture is needed. Remove dough and knead briefly to bring it together. Divide the dough in half, wrap each half in plastic wrap and refrigerate for 10 minutes.
Working with one half of dough at a time, roll out the dough between 2 large pieces of parchment paper, wax paper or plastic wrap to a thickness of about ¼ inch. Using a lightly floured 3-inch round cutter, cut as many circles as possible from the dough, place a scant teaspoon of filling in the center of each circle (do not overfill), then bring the edges of the circle together towards the center to form a triangle, pinching the corners of the triangle together. If the dough becomes too soft to work with easily during this process, place it in the freezer for a few minutes to firm up and then continue. Transfer assembled hamantaschen to the prepared baking sheets, placing about 2 inches apart, and brush exposed dough with egg mixture. Repeat with remaining dough. For Apple Pie Hamantaschen, sprinkle liberally with cinnamon sugar over dough and filling before baking.
Bake 18 to 20 minutes or until light golden brown. Allow to cool on sheets for about 5 minutes, then transfer to a rack and cool completely. For Pecan Pie Hamantaschen, drizzle with melted chocolate before serving.
Apple Pie Filling
4 large granny smith apples, peeled, cored and cut into chunks
3 tablespoons sugar
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 tablespoon light corn syrup
¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/8 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
1 teaspoon vegetable oil
In a non-reactive saucepan, toss the apple chunks with the sugar and lemon juice. Cover the saucepan and cook the apples over medium heat until softened, stirring occasionally, about 10 minutes. Remove the pan from heat and stir in the remaining ingredients. The mixture should resemble a thick and chunky applesauce. Taste the filling and add another tablespoon of sugar if needed. Allow the filling to cool completely before using. Refrigerate if not using immediately.
Pecan Pie Filling
2 cups chopped pecans
1/4 cup light brown sugar
1/2 cup light corn syrup
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon pure vanilla extract
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 egg yolk
Combine all ingredients thoroughly in a large bowl. Refrigerate if not using immediately.
Yield: Makes about 3 dozen hamantaschen.
Recipes: Desserts, Purim, Hamantaschen, Parve, Kosher

POCAHONTAS, AR (KAIT) -Several roads in Region 8 are still under water after Sunday nights storms.
Randolph County Judge, David Jansen said with five rivers and heavy rain, flooding is bound to happen.
"We got a lot of water in the Current River bottoms and Black River bottoms," said Jansen. "The water is starting to recede but we haven't been able to get in there yet."
As of yesterday, Jansen has declared Randolph County a disaster area.
"We got our paper work filled out and I'm sure when they get their dollar figure in Governor Beebe is going to ask for federal help, he said. "It's coming we just don't know when yet."
The Randolph County Cooperative Extension building was also evacuated, after flooding caused the foundation to crumble.
"We have a ditch right on the back side of it," Jansen said. "The water got so high that it blew out all the wall and foundation blocks that's holding the building up."
The ditch has flooded before but with heavy rain it was too much for the wall to sustain.
"I guess the force of the water this time just blew out the foundation." He said.
Jansen said new ideas to keep it from flooding are in the works.
"We can possibly build a retaining wall out here or something," he said.
Jansen anticipates the rivers to go back down to normal by the end of the week.

Talking Point
The pall of seriousness: Unbearably weighty writing
By Andrei Codrescu
Laura Miller points out in a recent New York Times article that teachers like to assign books that make children cry, books in which kids go through horrible and realistic crises of abuse, death, destruction and questionable triumphs. Only a minority of teachers bother with adventure and magic, things like Harry Potter, books that children really like. Her conclusion is that teachers hate children for their ability to dream and escape from the dreary reality the adults are stuck in.
That seems to me right-on, and its only a symptom of a wider adult sickness that has publishers churning out one dreary realist novel after another. Novels (preferably, first novels) about bad childhoods, horrible families, domestic abuse and terminal diseases are all the rage in publishing and in the writing schools. Open almost any new novel in the stores today and youll be struck by a dank air of quasi-autobiographical trauma rendered in boring, complete (and completely boring) sentences.
Its as if color itself is being systematically drained out of American fiction. In the September issue of Harpers, Tom Robbins, the magician of some of the most vivid sparkling prose of the past three decades, nails the current malaise and wonders what happened. Literature used to claim for itself a unique territory of the imagination, inhabited by playful, daring and breathtaking words that created worlds. Granted, not every writer is Tom Robbins or Virginia Woolf, but the tragedy is that few writers even aspire to such writing.
The bar has been lowered for the craft: The publishers prefer mediocrity, the reviewers like well-plotted, well-drawn characters and color is anathema. The new mandarins who dictate taste in reviewing and publishing prefer soap operas to literature, either because they are badly educated or because they learned to talk in writing workshops taught by dull and bitter teachers.
There is no reason for a reader to actually bother with most well trumpeted contemporary fiction: Its no longer a unique place, but a lower speciae of journalism that television does much better. Between Orlando and The Corrections stretches a gulf of fear, illiteracy and the hatred of children and joy.

Tow truck collides with Lynx bus
Six people suffer minor injuries in crash
ZELLWOOD, Fla. —
A tow truck ran into the back of a Lynx bus, injuring six people early Tuesday.
The crash happened in the northbound lanes of County Road 441 near Washington Street. The roadway was blocked by the accident. Officials were able to reroute traffic.
According to the Florida Highway Patrol, the driver of the tow truck, Wilfredo Flores, did not notice that the bus had stopped at a bus stop and struck the back.
Orange County fire and rescue crews responded to the crash and said all six people hurt suffered only minor injuries. One of the four people taken to a hospital for treatment was trying to board the bus when it was struck. The other two were treated at the scene.
Flores was cited with careless driving.

Fanciful questions about chocolate sauce confronted a Lexington, Ky., attorney representing a hometown firm Tuesday as the Supreme Court weighed when companies can file false advertising lawsuits.
Making his inaugural appearance before the high court, 44-year-old attorney Steven B. Loy urged justices to constrain when companies can be sued under a federal law banning false or misleading advertising. In a legal fight now entering its second decade, Lexmark International Inc. is defending itself against another firm that sued after claiming Lexmark made false allegations.
The case's outcome could shape the bottom line of companies nationwide. But as is their wont, Supreme Court justices also conjured some far-out hypothetical scenarios to plumb a fairly technical case and its potential consequences. Most elaborately, Justice Stephen Breyer served up an extended example involving an ice cream parlor that's selling sundaes made with chocolate sauce disparaged by a competitor.
"We prepared for the hypotheticals," Loy said after the hour-long oral argument, though "not that precise one."
A graduate of the University of Kentucky and its law school, Loy has been representing Lexmark in a multi-faceted legal campaign that's played out in both state and federal courts since 2002.
The tentacle that reached the Supreme Court on Tuesday, called Lexmark International v. Static Control Components, is not one of the term's more dramatic controversies. It involves "standing," an important, but often dry legal concept governing when people can sue. There were empty seats in the courtroom, and only two or three reporters present. Only five amicus briefs were filed by outside parties, compared to dozens on higher-profile cases.
The justices themselves did not clearly tip their hands during an argument that featured tough questions for both sides, though reading between the lines could suggest a split decision is on the way. Liberal Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg sounded somewhat sympathetic to the company challenging Lexmark, while conservative Justices Antonin Scalia and Samuel Alito sounded somewhat sympathetic to tighter restrictions on lawsuits.
Lexmark manufactures laser printers and toner cartridges. Other companies, known as "remanufacturers," buy used cartridges from Lexmark customers, refill them and sell them back to owners of Lexmark printers. Static Control Components, based in Sanford, N.C., makes microchips and other parts used by these cartridge remanufacturers.
A Lexmark-made microchip disables certain discounted cartridges once they've been used the first time, rendering them useless to other remanufacturers. Static Control, though, made its own microchip that enabled remanufacturers to reuse the Lexmark cartridges. Much legal wrangling has since ensued.
Lexmark wrote companies that they would infringe on Lexmark's intellectual property if they remanufactured cartridges using Static Control's products. Static Control sued under the federal Lanham Act, which prohibits false advertising and trademark infringement. The company argued that Lexmark's assertions led customers to believe Static Control acted unlawfully.
"Here is an entrepreneur that says, 'We make a product and Lexmark is disparaging our product. It is essentially trying to get us out of this line of business,'" Ginsburg said. "Certainly if you just read the words of the Lanham Act, this is allegedly false advertising."
Attorney Jameson R. Jones, a former Supreme Court clerk representing Static Control, added that "if any party has standing (to sue) under the Lanham Act, it's a party whose goods are misrepresented in false advertising."
Everyone seems to agree that a direct competitor can sue under the Lanham Act. In this case, that would cover the remanufacturers that sell the cartridges that compete directly with Lexmark products. A trickier question in this case is whether a supplier of parts to the direct competitor can likewise sue.
"Wherever the court draws the line on standing, whoever is just on the other side of the line is always going to think that it's too narrow," Loy told the justices. "We think the Lanham Act does and should have a narrow standing requirement."
Lexmark proposes a relatively strict judicial test that could include ensuring a close "proximity" between the defendant's actions and the injury that's suffered. Static Control argues in response that Congress intended to empower a broader range of potential plaintiffs.
"The standing question is designed to answer, 'are you the kind of plaintiff that Congress intended in this statute to protect against the kind of injury that you say you suffered?'" Breyer noted.
Justice Clarence Thomas, as is his practice, was the only one of nine justices not to speak or ask questions during the argument. A decision is expected by June.

The Ford Hall Forum at Suffolk University presents author Maggie Anderson and Sociologist Thomas Shapiro, with Candelaria Silva, discussing "Black Economy, White Privilege" from 6:30-8 p.m. Thursday, Oct. 4, at the Modern Theatre, 525 Washington St., Boston.
Black businesses lag behind businesses of all other racial groups in every measure of success. Is it necessary – or even possible – for the black community to sustain its own economy?
ggie Anderson will describe her year-long "buy black" empowerment experiment and how, while trying to inspire blacks to economically mobilize, she encountered a community that refused to support its own. Meanwhile, Shapiro will discuss blacks' failing in asset accumulation and homeownership, to the point of negating gains in employment and income.
Drawing on economic research, social history, surveys, interviews, and their own personal experiences, these authors will analyze how racial inequality is transmitted across generations and pinpoint why the black economy continues to suffer.
The Ford Hall Forum is the nation's oldest free public lecture series. It promotes freedom of speech and fosters an informed and effective citizenry through events that illuminate the key issues facing our society.
The forum presents knowledgeable and thought-provoking speakers, including some of the most controversial opinion leaders of our times, in settings that facilitate frank and open debate.

Retired judge reprimanded, told remarks were sexistBy MARK HAYWARD
New Hampshire Union Leader
April 07. 2014 9:48PM
A recently retired Superior Court judge has been reprimanded after reportedly making sexist remarks, such as blaming the increased number of female lawyers for the public's disrespect of the legal system.
The New Hampshire Judicial Conduct Committee said John M. Lewis, who quietly retired last summer as superiors started investigating complaints, was responsible for making remarks that could be interpreted as showing gender bias.
But while Lewis said he may have made the remarks, he said they were off-the-cuff musings that were misinterpreted.
"I was clearly misunderstood. I take responsibility for this; I'm a judge, I should be clear," Lewis said Monday. Lewis said he's not a sexist. He said his wife is an artist and a feminist; his daughter is a lawyer. His mother, an escapee from Nazi Germany, ran the family business after his father died at a young age, he said. And at Columbia Law School, he worked alongside then-professor Ruth Bader Ginsburg on a Supreme Court legal brief challenging sexual discrimination.
Lewis, a nominee of former Gov. Jeanne Shaheen, is the former chairman of the state Board of Education and had been a judge for more than 12 years.
He is 67 and retired as supervisory judge of Strafford County Superior Court, where he earned $137,800 a year.
According to the seven-page reprimand, Lewis made the questionable statements when meeting with Strafford County public defenders last July. (See more on report at UnionLeader.com)The reprimand paraphrased the public defenders. Each said Lewis told them that the legal profession risks losing the respect of society because so many women are becoming lawyers.
He compared that to Russia, where he said no one respects the medical profession because it is dominated by females. He said people respect the business world because it is male-dominated. And he said the teaching profession is harmed because women are becoming lawyers rather than teachers.
Also, when meeting with Strafford County prosecutors, Lewis said aggressive prosecution of child abuse cases may hurt families and society, the reprimand said. Lewis told the New Hampshire Union Leader that the remarks dealt with a specific, difficult case.
According to the reprimand, Lewis told prosecutors he would apply procedures differently to defense lawyers than he would to prosecutors. Lewis reportedly said he would give a higher level of scrutiny to cases involving child abuse.
Strafford County Attorney Thomas Velardi said the statements were out of character for Lewis, and he never saw evidence of Lewis acting on them from the bench.
"I never felt as though Judge Lewis made a ruling against us because of these thoughts, or beliefs, or musings," Velardi said.
Velardi said Lewis had started questioning victims who attended the bail hearings of their alleged abusers, and the questioning had damaged the victims' psyches.
Under the terms of the reprimand agreed to by Lewis, he retired without senior status, meaning he won't take judicial work on a limited basis. Nor will he serve in any other judicial capacity.
Lewis agreed that he created an appearance of impropriety by making statements that could be reasonably interpreted to show gender bias and prejudice.
But Lewis disputed any other violations of the judicial code.
Lewis said he retired given his age and the difficulty of fighting such allegations.
He said he continues to practice law in a limited capacity.

Hi There,
I need a bit of help with designing my PVC blades. I thought a 110mm PVC pipe would give me a good pitch, but as you will probably see in the designs attached, the pitch looks very unlikely to work. I think the arch is way to deep.
To the experts I would like to know if the blades in my plans have a glimmer of hope
To others who have sucessfully created PVC blades, please would you share some info on how you made them. I will gladly draw plans for them and post back to the forum.

PHOENIX – Arizona's bitter debate over a signature part of President Obama's health care overhaul has sparked an investigation into lawmakers' safety after at least nine legislators received a threatening email over Gov. Jan Brewer's push to expand Medicaid access.
The message referred to Second Amendment rights and shooting someone, but did not include any direct threats. It was sent to House Speaker Andy Tobin, who opposes the Medicaid expansion, and eight other Republican House members.
"Please kill SB1492, the Medicaid Expansion Act," the email begins, before quoting the Second Amendment. It then reads, "If you are ever asked why you shot the person, the only answer from your lips should be, I felt my life, or/and my family's life was in immediate danger of death. So I did what I had to do in order to eliminate this threat. "
State police are also investigating a voicemail left for Rep. Kate Brophy McGee, a Phoenix Republican who supports the Medicaid expansion. She appeared visibly shaken Thursday as she described the message on the House floor and asked lawmakers to tell their constituents to be civil.
"The voice was a male who left a long rambling message with derogatory remarks aimed at Governor Brewer for Representative McGee," Bart Graves, a spokesman with the Department of Public Safety, said in an email Friday. "She felt there was a threatening undertone."
Lawmakers said they have received dozens of messages from supporters and opponents of the proposed expansion containing varying layers of vitriol.
"Sadly, the tone has been quite intense. People are emotional," said Republican Rep. Ethan Orr, of Tucson, who supports the Medicaid plan and received the email but said it did not make him feel threatened. "I wish people would have a more civil and respectful tone, but I understand why this is so important to them."
State police plan to interview the caller and email sender.
"We take these incidents seriously," Graves said.
The alleged threats come after a heated impasse between Brewer and Republican leaders in the GOP-led Legislature over the Medicaid expansion.
Brewer announced a moratorium on bill signings two weeks ago and vetoed five bills Thursday. Brewer's spokesman has said she will not sign anymore bills until significant progress is made on the Medicaid plan and the state budget. Lawmakers have five more weeks until the new fiscal year begins on July 1.
The State Senate president and House speaker oppose the Medicaid expansion, and some Republican lawmakers have labeled Brewer a traitor for backing it. She was among a handful of Republican governors who sued after the health care overhaul's passage. But Brewer and other moderate Republicans now say the plan will help poor Arizonans and there are enough votes in the Arizona Senate and House to pass the Medicaid expansion if the leadership doesn't stand in the way.
Arizona is among nine states where Republican governors have accepted the Medicaid expansion. Six of them have been able to get a deal with their legislatures or are on track to do so, including Arizona, where six Republicans joined all 13 Democrats in the Senate last week to pass a budget that included the Medicaid expansion.
Conservative Republicans were furious at the supporters. The head of the Maricopa County Republican Party, A.J. LaFaro, called the day of the vote "a day of infamy."
"Their political careers are all but over and their days numbered," he said.

On Saturday evening, Sept. 22, Old Fort Niagara will present a special evening tour focusing on the construction of the 286-year-old French Castle. The tour will include live demonstrations of the woodworking, stonecutting and blacksmithing skills needed to erect the oldest building in the Great Lakes basin.
The French Castle was built between June 1726 and October 1727 to bolster French influence in the Niagara region and block British westward expansion. In the spring of 1726, about 100 soldiers and assorted workmen left Montreal to erect the new outpost. During the summer, an outbreak of fever delayed construction into the 1727 season.
This program, which begins at 7 p.m., will focus on the tools and techniques employed by the French in the original construction of the castle.
Tickets for the tour are priced at $20 per person. Advance reservations and payment are required. Interested parties should call 716-745-7611 for reservations.
