CSCE Senior Advisor
United States Helsinki Commission Co-Chairman Rep. Christopher H. Smith (R-NJ) and German Bundestag President Wolfgang Thierse convened a forum to address the rise in anti-Semitism in the OSCE region and consider possible collective actions in order to reverse this alarming trend.
The panel forum was held in early July in conjunction with the 11th annual Parliamentary Assembly of the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe.
Each of the 11 delegates to the Assembly from the U.S. Congress attended the forum as did several members of the German delegation, including former Bundestag President and OSCE PA Vice President Dr. Rita Sussmuth. Parliamentarians from other delegations to the Assembly, U.S. Embassy officials, representatives of civil society and members of the press were also present.
In his opening remarks, Mr. Smith, who headed the U.S. delegation to the Berlin Assembly, condemned politicians who promote aggressive nationalism and, as a result, have fed "the latent monster of anti-Semitism." He noted that the actions of the extreme right are a startling reminder of how the sins of intolerance and xenophobia remain prevalent in certain circles. Smith also observed that hostility toward Jews has erupted from second generation Arabs in Western Europe.
Mr. Smith called upon all OSCE participating States, including the United States, to be "proactive, vigilant and determined" to combat anti-Semitic violence. He urged the decisive adoption by the Parliamentary Assembly of a US-sponsored resolution condemning anti-Semitism. That resolution was subsequently approved unanimously by the Assembly of nearly 300 parliamentarians from throughout the OSCE region.
German Parliamentarian Prof. Gert Weisskirchen recalled the horrors that anti-Semitism had inflicted on Germany and Europe as a whole. It is imperative that these crimes never be forgotten, Weisskirchen said. Germany had made extensive efforts to educate its citizens about the Holocaust, however, as the current rise in anti-Semitism suggests, such efforts had to be continued and intensified. Prof. Weisskirchen called for a serious program of action to be embraced by all of the countries of the OSCE and suggested that the United States and Germany work closely together to provide leadership.
Four experts on anti-Semitism then offered their views to the Forum. They included Dr. Wolfgang Benz, Director of the Center for Anti-Semitic Research at the Technical University of Berlin; Mr. Abraham Foxman, National Director of the Anti-Defamation League; Dr. Shimon Samuels, Director for International Liaison at the Simon Wiesenthal Center, Paris; and Dr. Wolfgang Schoeps, Professor at the University of Potsdam and Director of the Moses Mendelsohn Center for European-Jewish Studies.
Prof. Schoeps began by stressing that anti-Semitism was not just a German or European problem but a worldwide phenomenon. He said that about 15 percent of the German public might be described as anti-Semitic. More ominous was the additional 30 percent of the population he described as "latent anti-Semites" who, in reaction to media reports, would be inclined to condone or even participate in anti-Semitic actions. Such individuals would deny being anti-Semites, at the same time declaring that "they didn't like Jews." Schoeps decried the threefold increase in attacks on Jewish institutions that have taken place since unification. As a German citizen, who was also Jewish, this impacted negatively on his comfort levels. At the same time, he complimented German schools and trade unions on their educational efforts to combat anti-Semitism and racism.
Dr. Benz noted that while anti-Semitic attitudes have become less socially acceptable in Germany, the number of incidents was clearly rising. These have increased from 65 in 2000 to 106 in 2001. The first quarter of 2002 had registered 33 incidents. Benz suggested the deteriorating situation in the Middle East and the inclination of certain elements in the media to compare Israeli actions to those of the Nazis may be connected with this trend. At the same time, he insisted that anti-Semitism in Germany did not have any resonance in the German political arena. However, Benz added, this was not true in certain other European countries such as Hungary, Latvia and Ukraine.
Mr. Foxman began by noting that, after ten years of decline, anti-Semitic attitudes are increasing in the United States. According to ADL-initiated surveys, 17 percent of the U.S. population had anti-Semitic feelings, but among the black and Hispanic populations the level was much higher at 35 percent. The number of incidents in the first five months of 2002 had increased by11 percent, according to Foxman.
Sadly, according to ADL surveys, the levels of anti-Semitic feelings in Europe were approximately twice as high as in the United States, with 30 percent of the population harboring a wide range of anti-Semitic stereotypes and 45 percent believing that their fellow Jewish citizens were more loyal to Israel than to their own countries.
Foxman said that the apathy among so many European leaders and citizens in what is happening is very alarming. "How many times must the world learn that the sin of omission is as dangerous as the sin of commission?" Foxman asked, calling on all OSCE participating States to follow the lead of the German Bundestag and decisively pass resolutions that condemn anti-Semitism in all its forms.
Dr. Samuels pointed out how the hate speech featured so prominently at the 2001 United Nations World Conference Against Racism in Durban contributed to an increased acceptance of anti-Semitic attitudes. He feared the World Conference on Sustainable Development, scheduled for Johannesburg in August, could produce similar, or worse, results.
Dr. Samuels called upon the United States and Germany to take the lead in ensuring the U.N. forum maintain the integrity of its environmental agenda. Samuels said one bright note was the apparent readiness of the new French government to recognize the problem and take appropriate action. He concluded that OSCE governments must take every measure to remove their Jewish communities from the cross hairs of the Middle East conflict for which they are too often forced to pay a price.
The Helsinki Commission held a hearing May 22 on the continuing wave of anti-Semitic attacks that has swept across Europe this year.
The United States Helsinki Commission, an independent federal agency, by law monitors and encourages progress in implementing provisions of the Helsinki Accords. The Commission, created in 1976, is composed of nine Senators, nine Representatives and one official each from the Departments of State, Defense and Commerce.

USAAF Group Patches
These Group patches are beautifully hand embroidered, just like the original theatre made examples from WWII. Measuring approximately 5 1/2 inches (14cm) in diameter, each design has been specially selected (from the hundreds that existed), to offer famous units with the most glowing credentials, and attractive emblems.
Using 100% melton wool cloth backing, each patch is painstakingly embroidered, by hand, literally with needle and yarn, to match the original WWII designs. These are not the mass produced, machine embroidered type patches that are otherwise commonly found. They can be ordered loose, or applied to your jacket order - no charge for application.
Use the insignia builder tool on the jacket product page if you wish to have insignia sewn to your jacket.

April 2009 celebrates my 2 year anniversary with the outstanding group that call themselves the Daring Bakers. Back in April 2007 we were just 30 members and my first ever challenge was the tough but rather yummy chocolate crepe cake. Today the group is pushing it's 2000 member mark and we have our own Daring Kitchen, where we get together to discuss the ups and downs of any given challenge.
I can't help but reminisce about the group back then. We all pretty much knew each other and it was just like an extended family all getting together once a month. I had a far better overview of who was a Daring Baker, today while the challenges are still exciting, the group has grown incredibly and I am afraid I do not know half of the members. The positive side is that I am finding new blogs through the group and always am amazed at the enormous effort and fantastic talent my fellow DBs present with each challenge.
The April 2009 challenge is hosted by Jenny from Jenny Bakes. She has chosen Abbey's Infamous Cheesecake as the challenge. Abbey T. is Jenny's friend and according to Jenny this cheesecake is the creamiest she has ever tried. I will second that.
This really was a deliciously creamy cheesecake, not too sweet and had a perfect texture. Cheesecake would not go down as my most favorite type of cake because I often find them heavy and far too sweet. However, this recipe really is great as one can do so much with it, as you will see all across the blogs today.
The basic recipe is very straightforward. Jenny wanted us to take the recipe and play with it. We were allowed a lot of room for variations and creativity. The type of challenges I love.
I had dulce de leche on my mind for quite some time and after I made my own homemade dulce de leche it was clear to me that I would make my cheesecake using the addictive sauce. I followed the recipe, just making a few minor changes to integrate the dulce de leche.
After 2 years with the group, 23 challenges (I missed only one so far!) and 1 as a hostess, this challenge will be my last one for a while. Most of you know by now, I am counting down to the big move in July to Qatar. As much as it pains me to miss out on the next baking challenges I have to make time for other challenges. Selling, sorting and packing are all on my To do list right now. Once I am settled in Doha I shall be back.
The recipe here is the one with my own modifications for a dulce de leche cheesecake. You will find the recipe for the original Abbey's Infamous Cheesecake here.
Dulce De Leche Cheesecake
Printable version of recipe here.
180g graham crackers, crushed – I used whole wheat biscuits from Bahlsen Leibniz
115g butter, melted
1 teaspoon vanilla extractCheesecake Filling:
680g cream cheese
200g superfine granulated sugar
3 eggs
150 ml dulce de leche
80 ml whole milk
1 vanilla bean, insides scraped
- Pre-heat oven to 180 degrees C. Lightly butter a 22-cm springform pan. Wrap the springform with a couple of layers of heavy duty-foil, to avoid leaking and water seeping into the cake.
- Mix crust ingredients together, and press into the bottom of the springform pan. Set crust aside.
- Combine cream cheese, sugar, milk and the insides of the vanilla bean together in the bowl of a stand-mixer (or in a large bowl if using a hand-mixer) until smooth. Add eggs, one at a time, fully incorporating each before adding the next. Make sure to scrape down the bowl in between each egg. Blend until smooth and creamy.
- Divide the mixture in half. Leave one half plain, pouring the the dulce de leche in the other half. Using a spatula gently combine the dulce de leche into the cream cheese mixture.
- Pour plain batter over crust, then top with dulce de leche batter.
- Bake in the oven for 45 to 55 minutes, until it is almost set. This can be hard to judge, but you're looking for the cake to hold together, but still have a lot of jiggle to it in the center. You don't want it to be completely firm at this stage. Close the oven door, turn the heat off, and let rest in the cooling oven for one hour. This lets the cake finish cooking and cool down gently enough so that it won't crack on the top. After one hour, remove cheesecake from oven and lift carefully out of water bath. Let it finish cooling on the counter, and then cover and put in the fridge to chill – preferably overnight. Once fully chilled, it is ready to serve.
- Serve topped with fresh berries and/or a drizzle of dulce de leche.
- I like using the springfrom pan or pans with removable bottoms. However, as this is being cooked in a water bath you might want to wrap such kind of baking forms in foil. Secure the springform generously with foil as you might have some leakage or water seeping into the form.
- You can be as creative as you like with the recipe. Instead of dulce de leche, use chocolate sauce or a fruity based coulis.
I made this for my brother-in-law's 30th. Soeren, his girlfriend and I pinched a slice to test and we found it hard to wait till the guests came around! In Germany cheesecake is often made using quark, which gives the filling a totally different flavor and texture. Therefore, the birthday boy and the guests found this form of cheesecake very interesting as it was more compact and cheesier in flavor. The dulce de leche is incredible in this cheesecake. It highlights the creaminess of the cheese with a rich caramel note. As I poured the two batters in layers one really enjoyed and noticed the different flavor levels of the filling.
I hope to see all of my fellow Daring Bakers and avid Daring Baker fans in October. Until then take your time and browse through my past 23 challenges with this awesome group.
Would I make this again?
Yes! It's not too sweet or heavy and the possibilities are immense. It's going to be a base for several exciting creations for sure.
What did I learn from this challenge?
That this cheesecake could become a favorite.
I thank Jenny and Abbey for sharing the secret to a delicious cheesecake recipe, which will be used often I can assure you. A great challenge and a great way to say a short goodbye! I am also celebrating with cakes for my last mingle and would love you all to come over for a celebration of Spring Cakes for this Monthly Mingle. Hope to see you there!

Here's what the White House says the conversation was like when President Obama and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu spoke by telephone today:
"President Obama and Prime Minister Netanyahu spoke today as part of their regular consultations, and to follow up on Secretary Clinton's meeting with the prime minister."The two leaders discussed a range of security issues, and the president reaffirmed his and our country's unshakeable commitment to Israel's security. The two leaders underscored that they are in full agreement on the shared goal of preventing Iran from obtaining a nuclear weapon."The prime minister welcomed President Obama's commitment before the United Nations General Assembly to do what we must to achieve that goal. The two leaders took note of the close cooperation and coordination between the governments of the United States and Israel regarding the threat posed by Iran — its nuclear program, proliferation, and support for terrorism — and agreed to continue their regular consultations on this issue going forward."
Thursday at the U.N., Netanyahu drew what he said should be the "red line" that Iran must not be allowed to cross — the point where it would be close to having enough enriched uranium to make a nuclear weapon. He said Iran could be at that point by next spring or summer.
Though the White House is emphasizing the two leaders' agreement "on the shared goal," as NPR's Lourdes Garcia-Navarro has reported there have been "strained" relations in recent months because of the Israeli leader's push for Obama to clearly state what would lead the U.S. to take military action against Iran.

I appreciate this time of year when night falls so much earlier. It makes me want to rush home and cozy up with loved ones, a book or a good project. Unlike summer when things are so bright up in my face, I love that Fall and Winter are seasons of shadows and angles with night and day playing cat and mouse so well. So many holidays around the corner. So many friends dropping by, parties hosted and kitchens in full roar. Time to connect and reconnect with people and things. Time to lose half your brain too if you don't pay attention!
When things get plenty busy, it's always good to have a few staples in your kitchen repertoire that are not only show stoppers but easy to prepare and make ahead, almost ensuring your guests will ask for more. My holiday staples almost always include cremes brulees, pots de creme, and panna cottas. Among the variations I like on this traditional Italian favorite, these Pomegranate and Caramelized Pear Panna Cottas have come to rank high on the list.
Panna Cotta is said to have originated in the northern region of Italy where dairy is one of the main agricultural productions but spread out to the entire nation and the rest of the world throughout the years. Variations of panna cotta exist in almost every country as it is a very convenient way to use up extra dairy like cream, milk and yogurt. I grew up on Blanc Manger for example which is a close cousin to the creamy silky no-bake Italian custard.
There are many, many reasons to start putting panna cottas on your list of "reliable-good-things-to-make-for-people-I-love." For starters, what is really fun about panna cotta (beside listening to an Italian saying it outloud) is that you can add flavors and ingredients inside, outside, above and below. You can also mix up the choice of dairy to be used as long as you make sure to balance the acidity and fats of each appropriately. You can prepare them up to 48 hours in advance and keep them snuggled up in the refrigerator until ready to eat. You can top them with whatever strikes your fancy that day or what is available during the season. And…they are gluten free!
November is synonymous with pears and pomegranate to me. Where my mother-in-law tries to find the biggest Comice and Bosc pears for cooking, I tend to favor Seckel and Forelles, my absolute smaller favorites. Where she feels like she hit the jackpot with the biggest pomegranate on the shelf, I always dig for the tinier ones. Yes, I like small and tiny anything but for a reason. Almost everything here is bigger than where I am from. Bigger roads, bigger houses, bigger stores and bigger produce which unfortunately doesn't always mean bigger on taste. I often find that smaller fruits and veggies pack so much more flavor and I'd rather have a small anything full of aroma any day like small servings of creamy and silky Panna Cotta.
Can I say out loud how much I love caramel? If you know me a tiny bit, you know that the mere idea of caramelizing anything gets me moving. When I made these panna cottas for a catered event earlier this week, I kept the base relatively simple with just a touch of vanilla bean and focused more on the toppings. I caramelized some seasonal Forelle pears with just a touch of butter and brown sugar and kept them at room temperature until the guests were ready for dessert. However, when it comes to pomegranate, nothing beats eating them straight out in their natural form. I just love the tart pop that comes with biting into pomegranate seeds. They were just the perfect texture and color contrast to the richness of the panna cottas.
One thing that you can play with and never reach the end of your playtime when it comes to Panna Cottas (beside the flavors) is the combination of dairy you use. Most recipes give you a combination of heavy cream and milk, some add buttermilk or/and yogurt to the mix. All are good, all work…in the proper ratios. If you use more acidic dairy like buttermilk and yogurt (even full fat) make sure to keep twice the amount of heavy cream in the mix. The more acidity is mixed in, the greater risk you run of the base separating into one part cream, one part whey. Nothing to do at this point but to start from scratch. Live and learn. If I can save you a major "Oh no!" and an extra trip to the store, then I've done my job!
If you are vegetarian or vegan, panna cottas can still be well within your dessert favorites. You can substitute any of the dairy for their vegetarian or vegan equivalent such as soy, almond, oat, hemp milks or vegetarian cream as long as they are the full fat kind. Panna cottas rely on the addition of gelatin which is a no-no if you are not a carnivore but kosher gelatin is often vegetarian and agar agar and carrageen are often used as substitutes. I am not proficient with any of these but you can find more information in this article on their nature and preparation.
Panna Cottas are pretty much a bottomless well for your tastebuds and imagination.
Pomegranate and Caramelized Pear Panna Cottas:
Notes: I make my own yogurt and used a freshly made batch in this recipe but you can substitute with store bought plain full fat yogurt, just don't use light, pretty please.
If you are not used to working with gelatin, in all its various forms, I recommend this article written by David Lebovitz. Gelatin won't be a mystery anymore!
Serves 8
For the panna cottas:
2 tablespoons cold water (more if using sheet gelatin)
2 teaspoons (5gr) unflavored powdered gelatin (1.5 sheets to 2 sheets gelatin)
2 cups (500ml) heavy cream
1/3 cup (70gr) sugar
1/2 vanilla bean, split lenghtwise and seeded
1 cup (250ml) plain whole milk yogurt
For the caramelized pear topping:
1 tablespoon (15gr) unsalted butter at room temperature
2 tablespoons (30gr) light brown sugar, packed
2 Forelle or Seckel pears or one Bosc pear, peeled, cored and cut in small dices
One pomegranate, seeded
Prepare the panna cottas:
Place the water in small bowl and sprinkle the gelatin over it. Reserve.
In a large heavy bottomed saucepan placed over medium heat, bring the heavy cream, sugar and vanilla bean seeds to a simmer. When the cream is hot, remove from the heat and whisk in the reserved gelatin until it is completely dissolved. Add the yogurt and whisk until well blended.
Divide the mixture among 8 glasses or ramekins. Let stand at room temperature for 20 minutes and then refrigerate for at least 4 hours before serving to let the cream set properly.
Prepare the caramelized pears:
In a heavy sautee pan set over medium heat, melt the butter and sugar together. When the mixture starts to sizzle, add the pear dices and sautee them until they start to become translucid and a little soft to the touch, about 2 minutes. If you cook them too long, you will end up with pear compote which is good too, but does not have the same biting contrast as barely sauteed pears.
Remove from the heat and let cool to room temperature.
To serve:
Top the panna cottas with some caramelized pears or pomegranate seeds as desired.

I have been enjoying quinoa ever since I discovered it and one of my favorite ways to enjoy it is in a simple salad. I tend to add some beans to the quinoa followed by some vegetables, often roasted, a nut and then I finish it off with a dressing and some herbs. I recently came across a quinoa chickpea salad on The Whole Kitchen that both followed that basic outline and looked really good. The recipe highlighted cinnamon and I immediatly thought of Moroccan cuisine which often uses complex spice mixtures including cinnamon. Moroccan spiced roasted carrots also happened to be on my to try list so I decided to merge the two ideas and make a Moroccan roasted carrot and chickpea quinoa salad. Of course, I made my own Moroccan spice blend and to ensure though flavouring, I tossed the carrots in some before roasting them, I cooked the quinoa with some and finally I mixed some into the dressing. The roasted carrot and chickpea quinoa salad turned out very nicely! I particularly enjoyed the spice blend and how it both accentuated the sweeter aspects of the salad in the form of the carrots and the raisins and also how it added a nice bit of heat. This salad would make a nice side for many Moroccan dishes and it also goes well by itself.
Moroccan Roasted Carrot and Chickpea Quinoa Salad
- 4 large carrots (peeled and slices 1/4 inch thick)
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 tablespoon moroccan spice blend
- 1/2 cup red quinoa

- 1/4 cup pine nuts (toasted)
- 1 handful parsley (chopped)
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 lemon (zest and juice)
- 1 teaspoon moroccan spice blend
- salt and pepper to taste
- Toss the carrots in the olive oil along with the spices.
- Arrange the carrots in a single layer on a baking sheet.
- Roast in a preheated 400F/200C oven until tender, about 20-30 minutes, turning them once in the middle.
- Simmer the quinoa in the water along with the spices until the water is absorbed, about 20 minutes.
- Mix the carrots, quinoa, chickpeas, onion, raisins, pine nuts and parsley in a bowl.
- Mix the olive oil, lemon juice and zest, moroccan spice blend, salt and pepper in a small bowl and then toss the salad in it.

Can Depression Be Treated Without Medication?
Depression is a serious condition that can affect every aspect of your life. To treat depression, doctors often recommend therapy and antidepressants. But is it possible to relieve the symptoms of depression without taking medicine?
This really depends on a number of factors, like how severe your symptoms are, how long you have been depressed, and what may be causing the depression. Since depression can get worse if left untreated, it is important that you work with a mental health professional to create a treatment plan that is right for you. If you are interested in treating your depression without medicine, here are some of the many options.
Working with a trusted therapist is usually one of the first steps on the road to recovery. Some of the most common therapeutic approaches are:
- Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT)—With CBT, you address negative thinking patterns and behaviors and learn new, healthier approaches to deal with life's challenges.
- Interpersonal therapy—During these therapy sessions, you focus on your relationships with others and the roles that you play.
- Psychodynamic therapy—With this long-term therapy, the therapist helps you examine your childhood and confront challenging issues.
You can choose to have individual therapy sessions, attend group therapy, or even do both. While you may feel more comfortable working one-on-one with a therapist, being involved in a group offers many benefits. For example, you can get support from people who are also dealing with depression, share your story, and offer hope.
Herbs and Supplements
There are a range of herbs and supplements that have been studied as possible treatments for depression. St. John's wort is one that has a lot of evidence supporting its use in people with mild to moderate depression. In fact, numerous studies have foundSt. John's wort to be more effective than placebo (sugar pill) and as effective as antidepressants. In addition, the herb does not have as many side effects as antidepressants. On the down side, though,St. John's wort may interact with a range of medicines (eg, statins, blood thinners), so the herb is not safe for everyone. In addition, the Food and Drug Administration do not regulate the herb and the dosing in different preparations may vary greatly.
While many other herbs and supplements have been investigated, the evidence backing these is not as strong. Some examples include:
- S-adenosylmethionine (SAMe)—Small, lower-quality studies suggest that SAMe may be helpful in treating depression.
- Ginkgo—Some evidence hints that ginkgo may reduce depressive symptoms.
- Phenylalanine—Based on some lower-quality studies, this amino acid may be a possible treatment for depression.
- Fish oil—So far, there is no convincing evidence to show that fish oil is more effective than placebo in treating depression.
Never try to treat depression on your own! If you are interested in tryingSt. John'swort, for example, talk to your doctor. Make sure that she is aware of any prescription medicines and over-the-counter products that you take.
Alternative Therapies
If you want to try a different approach to relieve your symptoms, consider one of the many treatments that fall outside of traditional Western medicine. Some studies have suggested that these alternative therapies may be helpful:
- Yoga
- Tai Chi
- Relaxation techniques
- Music therapy
- Massage therapy
- Learning about spirituality
What about acupuncture? The evidence is mixed as to acupuncture's effectiveness in relieving depression.
Can exercise lift your mood? There is reliable evidence, including a review of 28 trials, supporting the conclusion that exercise can improve depressive symptoms in adults. Some studies suggest that exercise may be just as helpful as antidepressants.
How much exercise is enough? Once you have approval from your doctor to start an exercise routine, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recommends that you aim for at least:
- 150 minutes of moderate-intensity aerobic exercise (eg, brisk walking) each week along with two (or more) days of strength training
- 75 minutes of vigorous aerobic activity (eg, jogging, running) each week along with two (or more) days of strength training

Taking the Next Step
If left untreated, depression can lead to suicidal thoughts and actions. That is why it is so important that you get help right away! While antidepressants and therapy are the most common forms of treatments, you may have success with a combination of therapy, alternative therapies, and lifestyle changes. Work closely with your mental health professional, keeping in mind that recovery takes a commitment on your part as well.

"It sounded like thunder, but it felt like an earthquake," Tracey Truitt, a lawyer who was working in a nearby building, tells theKansas City Star about an explosion Tuesday evening that leveled a restaurant in the city's Country Club Plaza.
At least 16 people were injured and as of early this morning one person remained missing, the Star says.
Our colleagues at KCUR report that "Missouri Gas Energy released a statement Tuesday night regarding the fire, saying: 'Early indications are that a contractor doing underground work struck a natural gas line, but the investigation continues.' "
According to the Star, the blast happened at JJ's restaurant shortly after 6 p.m. local time. "The force knocked out windows at least a half-block away and was felt nearly a mile away. Flames soared two-thirds higher than the building into the evening sky. Bricks and broken glass were strewn around."
KCUR says that a strong gas odor had been reported before the explosion, and that customers had been evacuated from the restaurant. It adds that:
"The initial blast was felt at least 5 blocks away and shattered windows in the block adjacent to the restaurant. The restaurant building is for practical purposes destroyed — the roof caved in."

Ben Affleck let us see him kiss his wife on a red carpet last night. It must be Oscar time. And they say he's good for several nominations. With a lot of studio money behind him, at this point it's almost a guarantee. I mean, Ben would have to f-ck up hard to not be at the Dolby in February, especially with Jennifer Garner playing Michelle Obama at his side. Oh and George Clooney too.
Clooney will get his own article coming up later but right now, as a producer on Argo, Ben's his boy, and since he doesn't have any projects of his own to campaign for this year, all of his Oscar efforts will be behind Argo and Ben. This might actually be the first time they've ever been photographed together publicly. I mean there may be a shot of them at a party somewhere on someone's iPhone but at a proper event, side by side, with publicity cameras going off, I can't remember this happening before. It's always been Matt and George. And speaking of Matt, once the awards race really heats up, he will no doubt come out and do some glad-handing for his best friend too. Between the cash and the A list supporters and the happy marriage and the right number of kids, Ben Affleck seems like the perfect candidate.
PS. Hate Garner's dress so much. It's red, which never helps. And it's Monique Lhuillier which explains why it looks so cheap. Lhuillier to me has always been glorified prom and, in this case, given her role here, totally makes sense -- a good, safe political choice, the kind of dress PEOPLE Magazine subscribers would choose for themselves.

Hiroki Kuroda (1-2) vs. Burke Badenhop (0-2).
COMMENTS: Top of the morning, sleepyheads! Okay, so Andruw Jones' corpse failed to re-animate on schedule (he went 0-for-3 with two walks yesterday). But everything else went swimmingly for the Dodgers, thankyouverymuch! Chad Billingsley shook off his fifth-inning blues, striking out eight for a well-deserved first win, while Rafael Furcal had five hits and Matt Kemp, James Loney and Blake DeWitt combined for ten RBIs as the Dodgers romped to a 13-1 victory—the tenth time this season they have scored seven or more runs in a game.
Joe Torre's primary goal of reaching .500 has been exceeded. "Now, we have to think of five over," he said. Baby steps, I like it. Kuroda, coming off perhaps his worst start against the Rockies, looks to rebound today against the pitcher with a soap opera name, Burke Badenhop, who has an 8.36 ERA. Torre has indicated he plans to start Mark Sweeney at first base, allowing Sweeney to shake off his rust instead of getting a tetanus shot. As for the rest of the squad (sans Andruw), they should just keep taking what they're taking.

speaker incorporates Boston's Deep Channel Design: the polymer woofers are injected
with graphite, allowing them to produce a more resonant bass sound without bottoming
out. The tweeters feature a soft-dome design and have been treated with a stiffening
agent to eliminate the high-frequency feedback that usually accompanies metal tweeters.
Together, the tweeters and woofers are able to reproduce frequencies ranging from
80 Hz to 25 KHz, ensuring faithful playback of your sound and music.
Smart Design Enhances Audio Experience
The CS 225C II also incorporates other smart audio-enhancing features. The speaker

Got a Mobile, Alabama Red Light ticket? Fix it!
Before you pay your Mobile Red Light ticket . . . Call the Smith Law Firm at 205-394-4252 to discuss your options!
Most Alabama Red Light tickets will cost you anywhere from $1200-$5000 over 3-5 years in increased insurance rates!
Reggie Smith can save you this money.
No points, No record, and usually No court appearance.
Why use the Smith Law Offices to fight your Mobile, Alabama Red Light Ticket?
Simple: To save a lot of money.
Your driving record is extremely valuable, even though most people don't realize it. The premium you pay for your insurance is based on multiple variables. By far the most important variable is your driving record. Any conviction, even for minor infractions, can show up on your driving record. Then your insurance company may raise your rates. They can stay elevated for 3-5 (sometimes 7!) years. Over this time, you may literally pay thousands in additional premiums.
If I am successful in reducing or eliminating your Mobile citation, your insurance company will not raise your premium. This is a simple decision based on plain economics. To verify this, you can call your insurance agent to ask them what effect a conviction will have on your premium.
The Smith Law Offices can save you thousands. The Smith Law Firm is ready to represent you throughout Alabama including Mobile District Court for your traffic or speeding ticket.
To fight your Red Light ticket please follow this link to get started
Unlike other speeding/traffic defense attorneys and lawyers who chose to focus on several areas of law and are sometimes spread thin, the Smith Law firm has a practice emphasis on traffic tickets, auto accidents, DUI's and violations of Alabama's Rules of the Road.
This has allowed the Smith Law firm to develop a deeper understanding of traffic procedures and case law in Alabama. Reginald Smith has been an attorney for over 30 years and has represented clients in thousands of cases.
Reggie has helped Alabama drivers avoid auto insurance premium increases, missed work, and travel expenses since they don't have to go to court themselves.
I will go to court for you and fight to keep your speeding or traffic ticket off your driving record. As an experienced traffic ticket attorney, my client's Mobile traffic tickets often are dismissed. If your ticket is not dismissed, Reggie can often work to arrange for a pre-trial diversion so the ticket will not increase your insurance rates.
Kind words from ticket clients
Mr. Smith, Thank you for your extraordinary service! I have received a copy of my dismissal. I am a retired State of Michigan Court of Appeals Judge and you could give most of the attorneys I have worked with lessons in efficiency and client service! Needless to say, if I hear of anyone requiring legal services, I will tell them "Call Reggie!"
Barbara C. – Retired State of Michigan Appeals Court Judge
I got my speeding ticket while vacationing in Alabama. I live in Florida, so I enlisted the help of Attorney Smith. He gave me clear instruction as to what steps should be taken and the matter was settled shortly. He is personable and I also felt confident that I'm in good hands. Thank you.
Mika – Miami Beach
Mr. Smith did a fantastic job defending me for my speeding ticket. In addition to helping me reduce my speeding ticket from aggravated speeding to simple speeding, he also obtained a youthful offender finding–which is very helpful in dealing with insurance. Mr. Smith was always kind and helpful; he replied to my emails very quickly and answered all of the questions I had before my court date. I highly recommend his services.

If getting active and staying healthy were easy, everyone would do it...but we don't. We come home after a long day of sitting in a chair to de-stress by sitting in another chair, unable to summon the energy to take a walk or hit the gym. Sure, everyone says to "make time for what's important to you," but oversimplification doesn't make the struggle easier. Let's break down the mental walls keeping you from taking care of yourself.
We've shown you lots of great ways to get and stay active. Whether it's the Lifehacker workout or our daily 20 minute workout generator, you have plenty of options if you're not sure how to get active and get in shape. Combined with the personal trainer in your pocket (in the form of your Android or your iPhone), you have all the tools you need to get healthy. So why haven't you?
Whether it's time management, stress, a busy job, bustling family life, or something else, in this post we're going to help you break down the barriers that may keep you from getting up and active. We sat down with some experts—people who have really motivated others—for their tips on how to do what you already know you should. When we're through, you'll be in the mental position to take advantage of the great fitness resources we've put together.
No Excuses: Tear Down Those Mental Walls
First of all, if you're struggling with a sedentary lifestyle, you're not alone. Millions of us are just like you, and we all know we should get moving, but we stumble and fall back into old habits or never get the traction you need. This is completely normal, don't think anything otherwise. Very few people spring out of bed one day and say "I'm going to change my behavior for the better for the rest of my life," do it, and never look back. In the real world things are different. Here are some things to remember:
Don't be too hard on yourself. Fitness expert (and Lifehacker contributor) Roger Lawson notes that we're often our own biggest hurdle. "They're simply too hard & expect too much from themselves; they think it has to be much harder than it has to be and when they don't live up to the expectations they've set for themselves, it all begins to fall apart," he explains. This is the cycle many of you know: you start something with good intentions, stumble, get frustrated, and give up. Be nice to yourself—stumbles and failures are going to happen, no one's perfect.

Don't get caught up in the "all or nothing" mindset. Exercise doesn't have to be complicated. Doing something is better than doing nothing. "Don't let optimal be the enemy of good enough," Roger says. "Sure, you could be doing more or could be doing better, but if in the long run that gets in the way of you doing anything at all then it's not use to you. Do what you can do and do consistently then worry about optimizing later as you gain traction." Remember, getting started is everything.
Understand how habits work. We've talked about the habit loop and how to break bad habits before, but it's critical here. Richard Talens, co-founder of Fitocracy, your pick for best fitness tracking site, explains it like this: "Most people fail in fitness because they never enter a self-sustaining positive feedback loop. In fact, most people don't even start. In order to be successful at fitness, it needs to be in the same category of the brain as sleeping, eating, and sex." He explained that if exercise worked the way it does in the movies—where a montage plays and after every workout you look better and see results instantly, more people would stick to it. The key is to find a routine replacement that works for you, and that gets results for the energy you put into building it into your habits.
You're not lazy, you're just starting from zero. One discouraging thing you've probably thought (or heard) before is that you're just lazy and will give up eventually, so why bother. Richard dismissed this idea: "To say that people don't exercise because they are lazy is actually backwards. Often times, people are actually lazy because they're out of shape and don't exercise!" He points out that it's easy for someone in-shape to tell someone who's having a tough time that they're just lazy, but the truth is running a mile for a couch potato is far more difficult and requires more physical and mental will than it does for someone who does five every day. Recognize that, especially when you start down the slippery slope of comparing yourself—and your habits—to others.
Find your "Secret Sauce". A lot of people will tell you to "just put the fork down," or "just get up and do it," which is easy when that person a: isn't you, and b: is sitting behind a keyboard. Don't listen to them: minimizing and oversimplifying the challenge doesn't help, and while hearing what worked for others can help you figure out things to try, it's almost never going to be exactly what works for you. Look for your own combination of tools, tips, techniques, and advice that will support you and your health and fitness goals. Accept advice, sure, but remember you're in this for you—no one else, and you're the only one who'll know what really works. Photo by Riley Kaminer.
Remember, health and wellness are extremely personal sciences. You'll be assaulted on all sides by articles, scams, self-help books, poorly-reported scientific studies, internet commenters, and more who all claim they know what will work for you—and it usually boils down to what worked for them (which is great!) or what they're willing to sell you (which is not so great.) Having an abundance of options isn't a bad thing, but remember who you're in this for.
Stay Motivated and Engaged to Stick With Your Plan
So what does work? Well, there's more information and advice out there than you could ever possibly use, but the key is to figure out what you'll stick with, so don't be afraid to experiment! Just remember what we said: if you stumble or falter, that means you just need to try something new or start slower—not that there's something wrong with you. Try some of these suggestions:
Set the Bar Low and Start Small. The first time I started working out, I decided to exercise daily for a half hour. Sounds good, right? Well, starting from zero to every day worked well for a while, but when I had to miss a day because I worked late, was sick, or my schedule changed, I felt terrible. Eventually I gave up, and beat myself up over it until I could get motivated to start again. Don't make the same mistake—if you're having trouble with every day, start with twice a week, or once. Whatever it is, start with something you can definitely do effortlessly. This is where suggestions like parking on the far end of the lot and taking the stairs come into play. Try these minimal daily exercises on for size.
"Instead of setting out to exercise 5-6 times a week, aim to do 1-2 times - consistently," Roger says. "Set the bar low so that you can build up initial success and build the self confidence and examples of winning that you'll need once things get harder." Derek Flanzraich, CEO and Founder of Greatist, agrees: "On Sunday nights, schedule your workout times into your calendar for the rest of the week. That removes a ton of excuses— you'll rarely, if ever, really 'just fit a workout in' when you've got a free moment. You're too busy! Schedule it in advance and it'll be top of mind!" The time for ambitiousness is after you have a track record of success. Remember, we're trying to get started, and getting started is hard enough.
Whatever You Do, Make It Fun. Roger couldn't stress this enough, and neither can we. Whatever you do, enjoy it. Choose something rewarding enough to make you feel good about doing it. If you're having a good time, Roger noted, mistakes feel like learning experiences and challenges to be overcome, not throw-up-your-hands-and-give-up moments. This is one reason that he—and we—love sites like Fitocracy, the Mindbloom Life Game (which we've highlighted before), and Superbetter, which also adds a game-like element to wellness. Photo by Richard Coshott.
Derek suggests picking a fun challenge designed for people in your shoes. Stuck on the couch? Try the Couch to 5K running plan! Maybe a mud run or martial arts class would be more up your alley. Whatever it is, make sure it's something you'll have a great time doing, and is low-enough impact that you can get in, keep up, and slowly challenge yourself as it progresses.
Join Communities that Build Positive Habits. Speaking of Fitocracy, Richard explained that services like Fitocracy do so well because they offer consistent, positive rewards for sticking to your guns. Even if you don't see results in the mirror right away—and you won't—a site like Fitocracy rewards you with levels, badges, and other treats that keep you engaged and motivated to do better. That's all great, but Richard explained it's really just a carrot to get you to the real prize: the community. "Wanna know our dirty little secret? I haven't really told this to any journalists explicitly, but points don't help all that much in the long run. They're merely a gateway drug that gets you involved into the community." Don't get caught up in counting calories and tracking steps walked that you miss out on how powerful a community, a workout buddy, or family and friends, rooting for us can be. It can make all the difference.
Use Technology Wisely: To Recount Your Victories. Technology can be a huge benefit to help you see your progress in a way that looking in the mirror won't show you. Our own Adam Pash got in shape with the help of the right gear, and Roger suggests keeping a calendar as a visual track of your victories. Each time you stick to your plan, whether it's diet, exercise, or both, mark it on the calendar. Sound familiar yet? That's right, it's Seinfeld's Productivity Secret, or "Don't Break the Chain." The goal is to keep that track record, whether it's on a calendar, in an app, or on a website, going unbroken as long as possible. Just remember, quantifying your efforts is just a method to get feedback and track your progress. Your tech should be a means to building better habits, not the habit in itself.

You'll notice we haven't given you a workout routine or exercise plan to follow here. That's because we've done that before several times. You can take those workouts and start today, but before you do, make sure you're in a place mentally where you're set up for success. In a few months, you don't want to still feel miserable every time you begin a workout, or know you have to work out today—it should be second nature, just something you do, like taking a shower or doing the laundry.
Derek reminded us that the turning point for him—and likely for many of us—is when we realize that we're in total control of our choices—not someone else who with a fad diet or book to sell—and that can be incredibly empowering. Once you make that realization, Roger notes that you should always remember where you are now when it comes to health and fitness. Whether it's diet or exercise, being honest with your current situation will keep you from being too ambitious and setting yourself up for failure, or from giving up entirely. "Begin where you are, not where you want to be. Becoming overwhelmed initially is the fastest way to halt all progress. As you get better, do better, and not a moment sooner." We couldn't agree more.

I've always had the utmost respect for all the single working mums out there. It's not easy to juggle a job, child/children, house, hobby and everything else a woman desires to do. Now, however as I too am a "single mother" for a major part of the week, all I can do is tip my chapeau in pure admiration and humble dignity.
The weeks are flying by and it's hard to really put into words what I feel. Our new routine that we've been living since the beginning of the year, throws both Soeren and me off over and over again. We get used to being a twosome, come weekend we are together in our comfortable threesome. Weekends are short and before we know it we are saying goodbye again and I feel an all time low all over again. It takes a day then it's OK – it's the highs and lows of this emotional roller coaster ride that is hard to control. I am an adult so I wonder how Soeren takes it.
I see that he has mood swings and bursts into angry tantrums, but as the week progresses he's back to normal again – more or less.
I am in charge and I have to make sure it works – job, child, house, hobby and everything else I desire. It's not easy – actually it gets to be exhausting at times. I have to depend on me and have to make sure I can depend on Soeren. I wonder if this responsibility that he has to carry on his shoulders is too heavy for a 7 year old.
He's doing a good job of being the man in the house.
When the light bulb in the lamp fuses, he asks me to unscrew it. With a frown he scrutinizes the bulb.
"We need one that screws in like this one and it has to be 11 Watts," he says.
So we head on out to the hardware store. As we get inside, he goes directly to the information counter and asks the salesperson to direct him to where the light-bulbs are. The man smiles at him and all three of us walk towards the aisle where the hundreds of light-bulbs are stacked neatly.
"We need 11 Watts and one with a screw like this," he holds up our fused bulb. The salesman nods looking at the bulb carefully.
He points at a row of bulbs packed in their boxes and Soeren picks one up.
"Can we test if it works, please!"
And the salesperson obliges. Just as bright as the new light-bulb shines, Soeren's smile lights up brighter than any bulb in that hardware store.
As we say thank you to the salesperson, he winks at Soeren and smiles knowingly at me.
That evening on the phone he tells his daddy with a certain amount of pride how he made sure that things at home are in working order.
Of course, I am proud of him, but I worry because I want to protect his innocence and keep him "my baby" for as long as I can. I worry that he might grow up too fast and loose that carefree attitude.
So, when I see him clowning around with his friends outside and just being that carefree 7 year old. I smile and my heart does a little leap.
Food is comfort – it's my motto! But good, healthy and wholesome. A fusion of flavors to arm us for the next roller coaster ride. To remind us that a good meal brings us together and simply allows us enjoy each others company without worries and fears.
The meatballs are made with lean ground lamb, infused with fresh mint leaves and a touch of cinnamon. They are succulent and full of flavor, served with a simple spelt risotto, which is topped with a powerful pesto made of coriander leaves, cashew nuts and ginger.

2 small red onions, finely chopped
6 sprigs of mint, finely chopped
500g lean ground lamb
1 egg
3 tablespoons whole wheat breadcrumbs
pinch of ground cinnamon
pinch of ground coriander
olive oil
salt and pepperFor the spelt risotto
185g pearled spelt
approx. 1.5 liters water
120ml + 1 tablespoon olive oil
2 tablespoon butter
3-4 shallots, finely chopped
150ml dry red wine
470 ml chicken stock
Parmesan cheese, gratedFor coriander pesto
60g fresh coriander leaves
80g cashew nuts, toasted and roughly chopped
2 garlic cloves, chopped
2 teaspoons fresh ginger, grated
1 red chili, seeded and chopped
olive oil
2 teaspoons lemon juice
sea salt
freshly ground pepper
For the meatballs
- Mix mint, onions and breadcrumbs with the ground meat. Spice with salt, pepper, cinnamon and coriander.
- With slightly moist hands make approx. 12 meatballs with the meat mix.
- Heat a good glug of olive oil in a skillet and fry the meatballs on all sides for about 10 minutes until browned and cooked from inside. Keep warm.
For the spelt risotto
- Soak the pearled spelt in cold water 20 minutes. Drain and rinse thoroughly.
- Bring 1.5 liters water to boil in medium saucepan. Add the olive oil and the rinsed pearled spelt and simmer for 20 minutes. Drain in strainer and rinse.
- Melt 1 tablespoon butter with 1 tablespoon oil in medium saucepan over medium heat. Add shallots and sauté for a minute.
- Add pearled spelt, stir then add the wine. Simmer until almost all liquid evaporates, stirring frequently - about 5 minutes. Add chicken stock, a ladle at a time and simmer until liquid is absorbed and pearled spelt is just tender, stirring frequently – approx. 15 minutes total.
- Stir in cheese and 1 tablespoon butter. Season with salt and pepper.
For coriander pesto
- Place the coriander leaves, cashew nuts, garlic, ginger and chili in a food processor and process until well blended.
- With the food processor running, add olive oil a little at a time until the pesto has a smooth consistency. Add the lime juice and season with salt and black pepper.
- Spoon into a sterilized jars and keep in the fridge. Once you've opened the jar, pour a thin layer of oil over the top of the pesto to keep it fresh.
Serving tip:
Serve with the meatballs and risotto with the pesto spooned over the top. Perfect with this dish are these Italian oven vegetables or this ratatouille.
The Food Guide Tips- Cashew nuts
- Cinnamon
- Coriander
- Ginger
There is an incredible fusion of flavors harmonizing in one healthy and perfect meal. We love meatballs and this has a fresh minty taste and the slight hint of cinnamon rounds it up perfectly. The spelt risotto makes a great and healthy alternative to the classic version. I love it with a good dollop of the pesto, which also works brilliantly as a dip for the meatballs. Delicious!

Pew: Attitudes Toward Online Dating Shifting
Online dating is shedding its stigma as a refuge for the desperate, but people who use sites such as Match.com and eHarmony are still in the minority.
Thirty-eight percent of Americans who are "single and looking" say they've used an online dating site or mobile dating app, according to a new study.
The report published Monday from the Pew Research Center's Internet and American Life Project suggests that attitudes toward online dating "have progressed in a clearly positive direction." In fact, 59 percent of Internet users agree that online dating is a good way to meet people. That's up from 44 percent in 2005.
As Americans shop, socialize and entertain themselves online, a growing number are turning to the Internet to find dates. Some 11 percent of people who started a long-term relationship in the past decade say they met their partner online. Even so, only 10 percent of Americans say they've tried online dating.
Online dating is most popular among men and women ages 25 to 34. Nearly a quarter of them have used online dating sites, compared with just 10 percent of people in the 18 to 24 age group. For ages 35 to 44, it's 17 percent and then the numbers fall to the single digits. Three percent of those over 65 have dabbled in online dating.
Whites are slightly more likely to use dating sites than other ethnicities -- 11 percent compared with 7 percent for blacks and 5 percent of Hispanics, according to the survey. People without a high school diploma were the least likely to use the Internet to find a date, while those who have completed "some college" were the most likely.
While a relatively small fraction of people use online dating sites, forty-two percent of Americans say they know someone who has, up from 31 in 2005. Among those 65 or older, the number grew to 24 percent from 13 percent.
Once upon a time, couples who found each other online felt compelled to spin alternate "how we met" tales, but that's no longer the case. Perhaps it's the result of changing attitudes. In 2005, 29 percent of Internet users agreed that people on online dating sites were "desperate." In Pew's most recent study, that number fell to 21 percent.
But online dating isn't all chocolate hearts and red roses. More than half of online daters say they believe someone else "seriously misrepresented themselves" in an online dating profile. More than a quarter have felt uncomfortable or harassed by someone who contacted them.
The results of Pew's recent study aren't directly comparable to its 2005 report because the way surveyors count the "online dating population" has changed. There were no dating apps eight years ago. That said, the percentage of Americans who say they have used an online dating website grew from 3 percent in 2008 to 6 percent in 2009, and 9 percent this year.
Among Pew's other findings:
- Don't call it stalking: One-third of Americans who use social networking sites use the sites to check up on somebody they once dated. The same is true for nearly half of those ages 18 to 29.
- Match.com is the most popular dating site, according to the 2013 survey, just as it was in 2005. No. 2 this year is eHarmony. Yahoo Personals was in second place in 2005, but it no longer exists. Searching for it online will take you to Match.com.
- Twenty-nine percent of respondents say they know someone who has been in a long-term relationship or married someone they met online, compared with 15 percent in 2005.
- Forty-six percent of people who use online dating sites say finding someone long-term is a major reason they use the sites. A quarter, on the other hand, "just want to have fun without being in a serious relationship."
The 2013 telephone survey was conducted from April 17 to May 19 among a sample of 2,252 U.S. adults, including people who don't own a landline. It has a margin of error of 2.3 percentage points.

Obviously, bros love wearing sandals above all else, but when wearing shoes, bros refuse to have ANY part of their sock showing. Go ahead, examine any bros collection of socks and you will see the following:
- Socks cut completely below ankle: This is by far the most heavily populated style in a bro's collection. One of the great things about these socks is that they are interchangeable with any sock in the collection since no one can ever see what type of sock you are wearing. This works great for bros because when doing laundry they NEVER pair their socks. Normally they just throw all their socks into a drawer and pick out two that look similar when the time comes.
- Ankle-hugging socks – these are socks that are barely visible when worn with sneakers. These are worn only when ALL other socks are in the laundry. These were only bought by mistake because the bro thought they would not be visible when wearing shoes. The first time bros wear these socks is normally met with cursing as they immediately realize that the socks are useless.
- Shin Socks – these are socks your Father would most likely wear and they only exist in a bro's dresser because they were once bought by their Mother. They are never ever worn unless you have no other options, but if you absolutely must wear them, they MUST be folded down over your foot to give the illusion that they are in fact ankle socks.
