This edition of
Hamlet was printed, I
believe, in 1607, as was also, I imagine,
the undated edition of
Romeo & Juliet,
for these two plays were entered on
the Stationers' books by John Smethwicke,
Nov 19, 1607.
In the edition of 1604 the words
following the title are – "Newly
imprinted and enlarged to almost
as much againe as it was, accord⸗
ing to the true and perfect coppie."
This undated copy I have collated
with the quarto of 1604, and have placed
the variations at the bottom of the page.
In the Edition of 1604 the play is entitled
The Tragicall
Historie of Hamlet &c
Tragicall Historie of
Prince of Denmarke.
Newly imprinted and enlarged to
that there was an earlier edition than that
of 1604, though it has hitherto been undis
covered. It was probably printed in 1602.
See the Entries on the Stationers Books.

It's Republic versus Empire, good versus not-so-good, and most importantly, player versus player onboard the legendary prototype Imperial ship, Voidstar. Sabers up, everyone!
This is what happens when two sides clash in BioWare's Star Wars: The Old Republic. The Imperial players want the information located in the data core at the heart of the Voidstar, and the Republic players want to keep them from getting there.
At least that's how it works in the first round. The Voidstar Warzone has both sides alternating between rounds, so the next time through the Republic wants the data, and the Empire must defend it. Eventually someone must win and access the data, but it doesn't really matter in the grand scheme of things, because this is an MMO. It's not like the Republic will gain access to new technology if they win; it's just a place to kill other players with a purpose, and I'm okay with that.

Meet the adorable orphaned baby monkey being hand-reared like a baby with constant 24-hour care
The tiny night monkey is with Martha Silva 24 hours a day, nestled in a wool pouch inside her coat or beside her while she sleeps. Eight times a day, she feeds milk to the five-inch baby like an attentive mother.
The long hours of monkey mothering don't bother the 54-year-old Colombian woman, she said, because she already raised two children.
'To me there is no difference. You have to look after each the same. When you give them the bottle, you have to make sure they don't choke,' said Silva, who works with the neonatal unit of Bogota's Wildlife Reception Center, part of the capital's environment ministry.
Scroll down for video
Marta Silva places a baby night monkey close to her chest where it stays 24 hours a day, nestled in a wool pouch inside her coat or beside her while she sleeps
Silva, who has children aged 20 and 30, began working at the center west of Bogota in 2000. She has nurtured species ranging from birds to turtles to primates.
'I carry them with me for a couple of months, in general, or the time that is required,' she told The Associated Press. Her husband and daughter help her with the household chores and cooking while she is occupied with a baby animal.
Now she is looking after the night monkey, a member of the Aotus genus, which lives in the tropical forests of South America, including Colombia, Brazil and Ecuador. Night monkeys got their name because of their unusual nocturnal habits.
'When I'm working, I make sure he doesn't get out of the little bag I have. If there is sun, I take him out of the sun,' she said.
This night monkey was brought by a man who said he found it abandoned on the side of a highway in Colombia's eastern plains
Silva never gives her animal charges names so they don't become seen as pets. In the long term, the center aims to return them to the wild.
Her latest baby, a male night monkey with dark fur, beige brows and large, protruding brown eyes for night vision, arrived at the center on Feb. 4, weighing a scant 100 grams, about a quarter of a pound.
It was brought in by a man who said he found it abandoned on the side of a highway in Colombia's eastern plains near Meta province, said Judith Cardenas, the center's chief biologist.
The monkey was about 5 days old when it arrived, and the man said he couldn't bring himself to leave it to die, Cardenas said.
Biologists at the center don't how this baby ended up being orphaned, but they say the mother may have been killed or perhaps the baby strayed off.
Once the monkey has matured enough, caretakers will place it in a large cage next to another monkey of the same species to see if they accept each other
Cardenas said Amazon-region monkeys are often hunted for meat, for experiments or as pets.
Silva, a pony-tailed woman with nails painted emerald green, made a small bag of brown and black cloth squares to hold the monkey, which is still too young to walk.
They sleep together and Silva takes the monkey to the center each day on her bicycle, the baby snug in the wool bag.
Every three hours, the monkey must be fed delactosed milk with vitamins added, Cardenas said. In the wild, adult night monkeys eat leaves, insects and small lizards and frogs.
When he grows up, the monkey will weigh 800 to 900 grams (1.75 to 2 pounds) and stand about 34 centimeters (13.4 inches), Cardenas said, adding that he will look like "a medium-sized teddy bear."
She said this type of primate passes the first three or four months of its life clinging to or hanging from the back of a parent as it swings through the trees. Orphaned, they need a substitute mother, like Silva with her wool bag kept close to her body.
Primates often live in 'family groups, with a father, mother and children ... They are a bit like us,' said veterinarian Claudia Brieva
Having substitute mothers for orphaned baby monkeys has been used in other parts of the world and in Colombia in recent years.
The idea, Cardenas said, is to let a baby monkey grow and then place it in a large cage in the center, next to another monkey of the same species. If they accept being in the same cage together, the center and environmentalists will begin a process of trying to introduce them into the Amazon jungle with a monkey group.
'This kind of primate lives in family groups, with a father, mother and children ... They are a bit like us,' said veterinarian Claudia Brieva, who coordinates work at another animal center in Bogota.
She said an older orphaned monkey can't be released alone into the jungle. A baby can be accepted by another family, however, or create its own, she said.
Monkey rescue groups have helped keep several species from becoming endangered
The International Union for Conservation of Nature lists a dozen types of night monkeys on its Red List of threatened species. Though none is listed as endangered, several are suffering declining populations.
In Colombia, Brieva said, 'Their natural habitats are being destroyed by the expansion of the agricultural frontier, by the indiscriminate cutting o the forests and jungle.'
Silva says she has raised two other baby monkeys and both of those were freed in different parts of the country. She hasn't heard anything about them since.
'It is like with a child. You are at peace because they are going to be in their natural habitat,' she said.

Behold. The Wexley School For Girls. What!? An all girls school run by these guys? Yes. Wexley is a very exclusive all-girls school (Ad Agency) run by these two guys. Cal and Ian. And one of the highlights of my job is working with these fine people.
When I first met Cal and Ian, they didn't know anything about advertising. They were a lounge singer duo in Seattle's Pioneer Square neighborhood. I was hired by BusinessWeek to photograph them for a story about the resurgence of lounge singers in Metropolitan areas. That is how the sexy lounge singer portrait came about. At some point during the shoot, I said, "This should be great advertising for your act." And Ian said, "What the hell is advertising?" I laughed, but he wasn't joking. He had no idea. I told him to look it up, which is exactly what he did. They read everything they could find about advertising, and before long they decided to open up their own ad agency.
The next time I photographed them, they were no longer singing Elton John, but they were making ads. And good ones at that.
In the last year, I have photographed Cal and Ian a few more times, as well as worked with them on a handful of ad campaigns. It's not every day that an assignment or ad campaign comes around that allows you to work with such creative people who are willing to experiment and have fun. You might look at the quirky Wexley office, and think that it's all fun and games. But they take what they do very seriously, and they are dang good at it too. Just look at the success the Seattle Sounders FC (a client of Wexley) have enjoyed.
I have a couple of earlier posts about ad campaigns that I have shot with Wexley. (Here) is the post about the Seattle Sounders FC billboard I shot earlier this year, and (here) is the post about the Human Wrecking Balls print campaign from late last year. In just a few short weeks, I will have some new Wexley related content and videos that I will be able to share. In the meantime, (here) is a hilarious video called "Winner Take Steve" written by Wexley, and directed by Jared Hess.

The Regional Toll Revenue program expedites transportation projects by providing desperately needed funding.
The Texas Legislature enabled the Texas Department of Transportation to consider public- and private-sector partnerships to finance roadways. The result is a completed project with a toll component and revenue for transportation projects.
Reliance on traditional funding sources will not be sufficient to meet mobility needs of the growing region.
The first agreement to generate Regional Toll Revenue funds was with North Texas Tollway Authority (NTTA). In exchange for the opportunity to construct, operate and maintain the 26-mile SH 121 toll road for 52 years, NTTA paid the region $3.2 billion. The Regional Transportation Council (RTC) used these funds to expedite about 200 transportation projects.
Following input from the public, elected officials and transportation partners, the RTC allocated funds for two categories of projects:
A timeline outlines the project selection process while the Phase 2 version of the interactive Fund and Project Tracking System can be used to check on project and fund status and features an interactive map.
For a snapshot of projects with SH 121 RTR funds, review county maps.
In May 2007, the Regional Transportation Council established priorities, emphasis areas and set aside funding for future initiatives and calls for projects. | Presentation [PDF]
In June 2010, total of $41 million was allocated to sustainable infrastructure and planning projects. RTR funds were specifically set aside for the 2009 Sustainable Development Call for Projects, which sought to:
Of the $41 million available to the region, $27.6 million was RTR funding available for infrastructure projects in the Eastern Subregion. An additional $1 million local dollars is set aside for planning projects.
Learn more about the 2009 Sustainable Development Call for Projects. Applications were due by 5 p.m. on October 2, 2009. The RTC on June 3, 2010 selected projects to receive funding.
A Regional Toll Revenue Fund and Project Tracking System is under development. Phase 2 of the system is available for users to view and utilize.
More features and capabilities will be added in Phase 3 of the system.
Transparently Reporting Project and Funding Details
Within the system, detailed RTR project information including status is combined with financial information about expenditures, interest earned and funds available. "Committed Fund" totals reflect amounts allocated to projects as of February 1, 2017. "Spent-to-Date" totals represent expenditures as of September 30, 2015.
As the system is developed, more up-to-date totals will be available. Archived reports are also available.
Regional Toll Revenue Annual Financial Report
How to Use the Fund and Project Tracking System
Funding and Revenue: The "dashboard" or main page shows a summary of account balances, allocations and funding available. Figures can also be viewed by county.
Project Status and Details: Use the search feature to query for projects by city, county, congressional district, agency, zip code, project type, selection process or facility name.
Enter the Fund and Project Tracking System here.
If you have questions or feedback about the tracking system, contact Omar Barrios at 817-608-2337 or email@example.com. For other RTR questions, please see a topic-specific list of staff contacts.
TxDOT, cities, counties and other transportation partners were recipients of RTR funds, and there are specific steps for initiating and implementing projects awarded RTR funds. Below are agreements and documents important to the process.
Environmental Review (updated on 11/06/2012)
Invoicing/Status Reporting
Entities implementing RTR funded projects are required to submit monthly reports to NCTCOG through the online reporting system (http://rtrinternal.nctcog.org) for each phase of each project awarded RTR funding. The monthly reports should:
Establishing a User Account for the Online Reporting System
NCTCOG has developed an online system for implementing agencies to submit monthly reports which can be found at http://rtrinternal.nctcog.org. Prior to submitting information using this system, a user account will need to be set up in the system. To gain access to the system, please submit a letter signed by your City Manager or other appropriate official identifying the names and email addresses of any individuals who are authorized to report financial and project status data. Please note that any authorized individuals for an entity will be able to report information for all projects implemented by that entity.
Letters authorizing use of the system may be submitted to:
Adam Beckom
Principal Transportation Planner
North Central Texas Council of Governments
P.O. Box 5888
Arlington, Texas 76005-5888
Alternatively, letters may be scanned and emailed to Adam Beckom at firstname.lastname@example.com. Following receipt of a signed letter, an account will be established and users will receive an e-mail with information on how to log into the system.
Any reports submitted to NCTCOG prior to creation of the online reporting system will be entered into the online system by NCTCOG staff. All future reports should be submitted using the online system.
On August 22, 2014, NCTCOG and TxDOT hosted a transportation project implementation workshop for our partners in the region. The workshop included topics on: identifying transportation needs, funding sources and funding eligibility, project selection, construction implementation guidelines, project tracking, and TxDOT/NCTCOG project close-out procedures. Implementation of federally funded projects and RTR-funded projects was also discussed. Implementation Workshop
On August 24, 2012, NCTCOG hosted two workshops: A refresher on navigating through RAPTS and a Close-out Process for completed projects. The first workshop also included fulfilling Environmental Review requirements, procedures for processing Sustainable Development infrastructure projects, entering invoices into the RAPTS system, and the required Status Reporting. The second workshop focused on the close-out process when a project is completed. Reporting requirements in the RAPTS system, close-out procedures for Sustainable Development projects, and reports TxDOT requires to finalize RTR-funded projects.
Both sessions were video recorded and can be viewed at the links below named "Video Recording" along with the "Presentation Documents" that contain the presentation and handouts for each session.

RTR funds are separated into two accounts, and RTC policies and state legislation determine how funds are allocated among counties and projects. Both accounts can be monitored through the Fund and Project Tracking System. RTC approval is required for selecting projects to receive RTR funds. Additionally, making changes to projects with allocated, or programmed, RTR funds follows the Transportation Improvement Program (TIP) Modification Policy since the TIP is a listing of funded transportation projects.
RTR funds are a result of a project with a toll component, and the RTC, as the regional transportation planning policy body for the Dallas-Fort Worth area, adopted several toll policies to govern toll rates, allocations and other details. Funding Descriptions & Categories
Reaching an agreement for the SH 121 RTR initiative was a collaborative process involving the RTC, TxDOT and NTTA. Other RTR funding initiatives will follow a similar process and involve coordination among RTC members, elected officials, transportation partners and the public to select projects to receive funding.
A timeline documents the process and supporting materials from public meetings, county task force meetings and RTC and Surface Transportation Technical Committee meetings.

Assam laksa is one of Penang's famous street food. The silky smooth rice noodle in hot and spicy fish soup is garnished with lots of fresh veggies and served with prawn paste as condiment. The contribution of mint leaves, ginger bud, laksa leaves, pineapple, lemon grass, tamarind juice, belacan, onion and cucumber gives the assam laksa a distinctive flavor. It's pungent, sweet, sour and spicy. It's mouth-watering indeed. Gosh, I'm addicted!
I'm sharing the dish with Presto Pasta Nights #188, which is hosted by Ruth from Once Upon A Feast.
5 mackerel fish, gutted and cleaned
a ping pong ball sized of tamarind, mixed with 200ml water, strained and retain the juice
3 tbsp of chili paste
2 liter water
15 sprigs of laksa leaves
half ginger bud, sliced into 4
3 stalk of lemon grass (the white portion), lightly smashed with the back of clever knife
2 onions and 1.5cm cube of belacan, blended
brown sugar
mint leaves
half bunga kantan, chopped
1 cucumber, cut into strips
quarter of a small pineapple, peeled and cut into steps
1 1/2 tbsp of shrimp paste diluted with 2 tbsp of hot water
1. Put ingredient (A) in a pot. Bring to a low simmering boil for 2 minutes. Continue to simmer for 5 minutes. Add the mackerel fish and bring to boil for 10 minutes or until cooked.

WOMEN'S BASKETBALL: Committee recommends 10 second rule
The 10-second backcourt rule will go into effect in NCAA women's basketball for the first time next season if a recommendation from the sport's rules committee is approved.
The U.S. women's college game is the only level worldwide that does not have a 10-second backcourt rule. The Women's Basketball Rules Committee said Thursday that implementing the rule will increase tempo and create more scoring opportunities.
The backcourt rule requires the offensive team to move the ball past midcourt within 10 seconds. Failure to do so results in a turnover.
Under current rules, teams can take as much time off the 30-second shot clock as they want before crossing midcourt.
The change requires approval next month by the Playing Rules Oversight Panel to go into effect in 2013-14.

"Widespread Panic, Starting Today"
Some Congressional leaders who initially seemed to accept the decision [to rescue AIG]…sharply questioned the move on Wednesday.
—The New York Times
It was a chance to listen to two of the world's most successful real estate moguls—Sam Zell and Vornado's Steve Roth—talk about the state of their business.
It was also a chance to revisit the hallowed halls of our alma mater, the suddenly and shockingly no-longer-independent Merrill Lynch, at that firm's Global Real Estate Conference.
The venue, at 4 World Financial Center, was different than when we crunched oil supply and demand statistics for the Thundering Herd nearly 30 years ago in a windowless cubicle at One Liberty Plaza, right next door to what was then the Twin Towers.
Still, "Mother Merrill," as most alum call the place, remains just that, although many we saw wandering the corridors seemed to be in a state of calm shock after the last month's events. For the most part, they seemed more relieved than angry that the firm had been rescued by Bank America.
Our object yesterday, however, was not to check in on Merrill. It was to listen to Zell and Roth talk about what the heck was happening in the real estate markets.
And talk they did.
They also performed a kind of Mutt and Jeff routine reliving last year's Equity Office Properties deal, when Roth's ferocious bidding for Zell's company pushed up the price of Equity Office Properties by $5 billion before Blackstone snapped it up at what will certainly go down as a peak-of-the-market top-tick if ever there was one.
Zell, for his part, modestly denied being a seer by selling office properties at the top. He simply pointed out that the office business "is a very capital-intensive business," and "you didn't have to be a great guru to look at the office market a year and a half ago and say, 'it can't continue.'"
The blustery Roth made Zell look positively demure. He defended Vornado's bid for EOP, pointing out that it was half-cash, half-stock. And since Vornado's stock price is down since then, he rationalized, "we were trading a portion of our assets at a high stock price."
Maybe so.
But the more interesting comment on the state of the world came in the next session, which involved three less famous, but quite successful, real estate companies from around the world.
After much discussion about cap rates in London and Germany, and the difference between Canadian and US office markets, a question from the audience brought the crowd to attention. It was about what, if any, impact the three companies had experienced from this week's events—specifically the bankruptcy of Lehman and the rescue of AIG.
The response was about as clear as it could be: "We have debt guaranteed by AIG," one of the men volunteered, as do most real estate investment trusts he knows.
And if AIG had not been rescued by the government, he said quietly but firmly to the several hundred people in the room, "There would have been widespread panic, starting today."
Quote, unquote.
We did not notice any so-called Congressional leaders in the room.
Too bad. They should have been there.

EOP = Equity Office Properties, not Executive Office Properties. Aside from that Sam Zell manages to beat the market again.
Also, give Buffett credit for buying Constellation Energy Group today. Cheap assets that need solid financing. Good move, and now send my electricity checks to Mr. Buffett.

I enjoyed reading the first Chapter of your book!
- Andy Tabbo said...
Isn't anyone else a little concerned that we're "that close" to wide spread panic? Are there any other insurance companies on planet Earth that might be in a similar position?
Just curious....
- alligator blood said...
Zell gets a ton of credit for selling EOP at peak levels. Yet, his largest current holding is Covanta (CVA). Since he owned it out of bankruptcy, it has arguably been a better investment and yet nobody talks about it.
- Anonymous said...
Jeff: Too bad Senator Richard Shelby (R) doesn't understand the meaning of "systemic risk" to companies like AIG in this credit crisis. I'd love, however, to hear more about what Sam Zell had to say at the real estate conference you attended. He's a genius, and I ain't making that up (go Cubbies)!
- Anonymous said...
Jeff - I'm a buyside analyst (even have a CFA), but I follow tech. I've never understood the financial sector.
Here's my question: is the entire business model of all banks and insurers predicated on the ability to continuously secure short term financing and/or find counterparties?
Or to put it in more draconian terms, is every major financial institution 24 hours away from bankruptcy all the time (i.e. if others stop trading with it)?

DOVER – The Dover Chamber was pleased to welcome One Voice for Southeastern New Hampshire with a traditional ribbon cutting ceremony.
"Supporting youth, families, educators, and communities who are committed to the prevention of alcohol and drug use. Working together, we can reduce substance abuse in our 20 eastern New Hampshire communities," is the goal of One Voice for Southeastern New Hampshire.
In 2007, the United Way of the Greater Seacoast, along with the cooperative efforts of individuals, educators, and substance abuse experts, helped create the ONE Voice Coalition. In 2010 One Voice moved to Goodwin Community Health, where they partner together to promote health and wellness. Their common purpose is to help prevent underage drinking and substance abuse through education, community mobilization and support of both teenagers and parents.
However, they strive to support the local communities as well—and that's an important distinction. They believe that substance abuse is not an individual issue, but rather a community issue with multiple contributing factors that impact both the individual and the community.
Today, they are proud to say that their regional coalition is engaged in 17 partnerships that focus on enforcement, youth empowerment, prevention training, family outreach and community development.
To learn more about One Voice for Southeastern New Hampshire, please visit www.onevoicenh.org. If you have questions, concerns, or would like more information, please do not hesitate to contact:
Melissa Silvey, Regional Network Coordinator, ONE Voice for Southeastern New Hampshire
Regional Network. Office is located at Goodwin Community Health, 311 Route 108, Somersworth, NH 03878 You can reach Melissa by calling 603-516-2562 or emailing firstname.lastname@example.com.
The Greater Dover Chamber of Commerce is a not-for-profit association of businesses, professionals, individuals, and organizations working together to advance the economic well-being of its members and the community.

The 2013 F1 season was lacking in a certain je ne sais quoi, possibly because the same guy kept walking away from the rest of the field like they were driving Yugos. Now that very racer told the media that he's concerned that F1 is losing its thrill factor.
I know a very simple way that Vettel himself could spice up next year's season: retire.

Certainly the cleanup has begun with Gwinn, but Susan Gwinn has been mucking up the Athens County government and spreading the corruption around for a long time.
In her letter demanding a notarized correction, Gwinn declares that the above statement is "untrue and libelous." For those who are not familiar with the back story, Gwinn was recently convicted of two misdemeanor charges related to falsifying campaign finance reports in her failed 2008 bid for Athens County prosecutor. Gwinn subsequently resigned as chairwoman of the Athens County Democratic Party, but is now seeking reelection to the county party's central committee.
Now that the back story's out of the way, here's the upshot: I am the student that Gwinn has threatened with a libel lawsuit.
As I told The Post, I have absolutely no intention of retracting or "correcting" anything I said in my Jan. 18 letter to the editor published in the Athens NEWS. I don't know why Susan Gwinn has chosen to single me out, of all the many people who have written and spoken about her. What I can tell you is that she picked the wrong person.
I believe that I have a First Amendment right to speak my mind about the job that my supposed public servants are doing. As a former county party chairwoman and current announced candidate for the county party's central committee, Gwinn certainly falls into that category. I will not be silenced by her or any other politician because they don't like what I have to say. If Gwinn didn't know that about me before she sent me a letter demanding a notarized correction, she should have done her Google homework a little better. This blog would have been a good start.
I write because I believe that the written word makes a difference. I believe that it can change minds, move hearts, and, when necessary, cause the political equivalent of earthquakes and tsunamis to bring change to our government for the sake of the people of this country and, in this case, the people of this county. I believe I have a talent for this, however small compared to that of others, and I will never stop writing to take back this country — from an obscure, heavily Democrat county in Southeastern Ohio all the way up to the White House.
I will fight for my First Amendment right to use my God-given talent for the written word to make a difference in the world. Although I would prefer not to, I will take that fight to court if Ms. Gwinn decides that's necessary. But I will not retract, I will not "correct," and I will not be intimidated into silence. I will not back down.
But I do think I touched a nerve. Don't you?

Do You Ever Bake a Butternut Squash?
No offense to summer squash, but the health benefits of fall squash far outweighs their summer cousins. A fine example is butternut squash. The unusually shaped hourglass yellow-beige gourd has a bright very dense flesh that can be used in many ways.
The butternut squash, which is low in fat, delivers an ample dose of dietary fiber, making it an exceptionally heart-friendly choice. It provides significant amounts of potassium, important for bone health, and vitamin B6, essential for the proper functioning of both the nervous and immune systems. The folate content adds yet another boost to its heart-healthy reputation and helps guard against brain and spinal-cord-related birth defects such as spina bifida.
This squash's tangerine color, however, indicates butternut's best health perk. The color signals an abundance of powerhouse nutrients known as carotenoids, shown to protect against heart disease. The very high levels of beta-carotene in butternut squash provide a deterrent against breast cancer and age-related macular degeneration. A 1-cup serving gives you nearly half the recommended daily dose of antioxidant-rich vitamin C.
One more reason to choose butternut squash is that it may have anti-inflammatory effects because of its high antioxidant content. Incorporating more of this hearty winter staple into your diet could help reduce risk of inflammation-related disorders such as rheumatoid arthritis and asthma.
Pick out your butternut from the local Farmer's Market and give it a try in the following variety of ways.
Roasted Butternut Squash and Bacon Pasta
3/4 teaspoon salt, divided
1/2 teaspoon dried rosemary
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
3 cups (1-inch) cubed peeled butternut squash
Cooking spray
6 sweet hickory-smoked bacon slices (raw)
1 cup thinly sliced shallots
8 ounces uncooked mini penne (tube-shaped pasta)
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
2 cups 2% reduced-fat milk
3/4 cup (3 ounces) shredded sharp provolone cheese
1/3 cup (1 1/2 ounces) grated fresh Parmesan cheese
Preheat oven to 425°.
Combine 1/4 teaspoon salt, rosemary, and pepper. Place squash on a foil-lined baking sheet coated with cooking spray; sprinkle with salt mixture. Bake at 425° for 45 minutes or until tender and lightly browned. Increase oven temperature to 450°.
Cook the bacon in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat until crisp. Remove bacon from pan, reserving 1 1/2 teaspoons drippings in pan; crumble bacon. Increase heat to medium-high. Add shallots to pan; sauté 8 minutes or until tender. Combine squash mixture, bacon, and shallots; set aside.
Cook pasta according to the package directions, omitting salt and fat. Drain well.
Combine flour and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Gradually add milk, stirring constantly with a whisk; bring to a boil. Cook 1 minute or until slightly thick, stirring constantly. Remove from heat. Add provolone, stirring until cheese melts. Add pasta to cheese mixture, tossing well to combine. Spoon pasta mixture into an 11 x 7-inch baking dish lightly coated with cooking spray; top with squash mixture. Sprinkle evenly with Parmesan cheese. Bake at 450° for 10 minutes or until cheese melts and begins to brown.
Squash Soufflé and Greens
1 butternut squash (about 2 3/4 pounds)
1/2 cup 1% low-fat milk
1/3 cup (1 1/3 ounces) shredded fontina cheese (you may substitute with provolone)
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 large egg
1 large egg white
Cooking spray
2 quarts water
1/2 teaspoon salt
8 cups finely chopped Swiss chard or collard greens
1 teaspoon butter
Preheat oven to 375°.
Cut squash in half lengthwise; discard seeds and membrane. Place squash halves, cut sides down, on a baking sheet; bake at 375° for 45 minutes or until tender. Cool. Peel squash. Mash pulp. Set aside 2 cups pulp, reserving remaining pulp for another use.
Combine 2 cups squash pulp, milk, and next 4 ingredients (milk through egg white) in a food processor; process until smooth. Pour into a 1-quart soufflé dish coated with cooking spray. Place soufflé dish in a 9-inch square baking pan; add hot water to pan to a depth of 1 inch. Bake at 375° for 40 minutes or until puffy and set.
While squash is baking, bring 2 quarts water and 1/2 teaspoon salt to a boil in an 8-quart stockpot or Dutch oven. Add Swiss chard; cover and cook 8 minutes. Drain well; toss with butter. Serve immediately.
Butternut Squash Gratin with Blue Cheese and Sage
5 cups (3/4-inch) cubed peeled butternut squash (about 2 pounds)
1 (1 1/2-ounce) slice white bread
4 teaspoons olive oil, divided
2 cups thinly sliced onion
1 tablespoon chopped fresh sage
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
Cooking spray
1/2 cup (2 ounces) crumbled blue cheese
Preheat oven to 400°.
Steam butternut squash, covered, 10 minutes or until tender.
Place bread in a food processor, and pulse 12 times or until coarse crumbs measure 1/2 cup. Transfer to a small bowl; add 2 teaspoons oil, and toss with a fork to combine.
Heat remaining 2 teaspoons oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add sliced onion to pan; saute 5 minutes or until tender, stirring occasionally. Transfer the onion mixture to a large bowl. Add butternut squash, chopped sage, salt, and black pepper to bowl, and toss gently to combine. Spoon squash mixture into an 11 x 7–inch baking dish coated with cooking spray. Bake at 400° for 20 minutes. Sprinkle crumbled blue cheese evenly over squash mixture, and sprinkle evenly with breadcrumb mixture. Bake an additional 10 minutes or until the cheese is melted and crumbs are golden brown.

Denver woman disappeared under suspicious circumstances
Amy Ahonen's black 2005 Jeep Liberty was found abandoned in Clear Creek Canyon near the side of Highway 6 in Jefferson County.
It was near the Mayhem Gulch Trail, a well-traveled scenic route where people often leave their cars to go hiking or rafting.
Ahonen's roommate, Kim McDaniel, had seen her around 1 p.m. that day, Friday, July 8, 2011, the day before her 38th birthday.
Her sister Andrea Ahonen said Amy was expected at work at Red Lobster at 6 p.m. that day.
A passerby saw Amy's Jeep on the side of the highway and called the Colorado State Patrol, according to one report.
Officials with the Colorado State Patrol also indicated that she called 911 asking for help with her vehicle that night.
But when a trooper arrived, Ahonen reportedly told him that she didn't need any help.
That was the last recorded contact with Ahonen. She never made it home.
Ahonen's roommate reported her missing two days later on Sunday. Jefferson County and Colorado State Patrol officers returned to the area and found her jeep abandoned.
The following day on Monday, Alpine Rescue Team members searched Clear Creek, which was swollen from recent rains and snow melt. The concern was that if Amy accidentally fell into the fast moving creek it would be difficult to find her remains.
Ahonen had moved to Colorado with her husband five years earlier. They were later divorced without having any children.
The circumstances were suspicious to family members. Did she waive off the trooper because a tow truck was on the way? Unfortunately there are only questions and few answers.

John Kerry Reporting For Duty Once Again
Kerry, while sharing the stage with the former President of Iran Mohammad Khatami during a discussion entitled, "The Future of the Middle East," took the opportunity on foreign soil nonetheless, to blast away at American foreign policy. Kerry said, "So we have a crisis of confidence in the Middle East - in the world, really. I've never seen our country as isolated, as much as a sort of international pariah for a number of reasons as it is today." He added, "When we walk away from global warming, Kyoto, when we are irresponsibly slow in moving toward AIDS in Africa, when we don't advance and live up to our own rhetoric and standards, we set a terrible message of duplicity and hypocrisy."
What's most hypocritical and duplicitous about this statement is that Kerry actually favored not ratifying the Kyoto treaty, along with the rest of the Senate in 1995. In a unanimous 95-0 vote, the Senate passed the Byrd-Hagel Resolution, which stated the following:
Resolved, That it is the sense of the Senate that--
(1) the United States should not be a signatory to any protocol to, or other agreement regarding, the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change of 1992, at negotiations in Kyoto in December 1997, or thereafter, which would--
(A) mandate new commitments to limit or reduce greenhouse gas emissions for the Annex I Parties, unless the protocol or other agreement also mandates new specific scheduled commitments to limit or reduce greenhouse gas emissions for Developing Country Parties within the same compliance period, or
(B) would result in serious harm to the economy of the United States; and
(2) any such protocol or other agreement which would require the advice and consent of the Senate to ratification should be accompanied by a detailed explanation of any legislation or regulatory actions that may be required to implement the protocol or other agreement and should also be accompanied by an analysis of the detailed financial costs and other impacts on the economy of the United States which would be incurred by the implementation of the protocol or other agreement.
Additionally, Bill Clinton never submitted Kyoto to the Senate to be ratified and even Al Gore admitted that he would not ratify an ammendment until it had been written to include developing nations as well.
So basically, Kerry voted against it before he voted for it. Duplicity and Hypocricy - John Kerry style. So to recap - Kerry lied and whined - all on foreign soil. What a great American!

This radio transmission between the US Navy en route to Iraq and the lowly Spanish Coast Guard is absolutely hilarious. The only problem is that it's fake and over 80 years old.
The radio transmission is what the US Navy calls "the lighthouse joke" in an online release from 1995. The Navy was then fending off an earlier circulation of this story whose basic structure was the same: a large US ship sternly commands a small coast guard to move, only to find that it's a lighthouse and it ain't going anywhere, bud.
Go on Snopes, however, and you'll find that the joke goes back at the very least to 1931, when a single frame comic showed the same boat/lighthouse drama communicated over megaphone.
Much as I wish this current Spanish Coast Guard radio transmission was real, it ain't. And Your favorite Internet jokes may be older than you think.

Nespresso coffee shops around the world: Why?
Posted by TheShot on 06 Nov 2006 | Tagged as: Beans, Consumer Trends, Foreign Brew, Home Brew, Machine
Here's an item in today's news: Nestle reportedly to open luxury coffee shop in Brazil – MarketWatch. In some parts of the world, Nestlé's Nespresso system, at least on the surface, appears to be making money hand-over-fist for them. Part of Nestlé's strategy has been to open up Nespresso stores in places such as Geneva, Zurich, Vienna, Paris, and Moscow.
Lisbon is no exception. The Nespresso store in Lisbon's Chiado district offers window displays of the latest Nespresso machines. Inside, once you look past all the customers and curious onlookers in the store, you encounter a lighted wall of machine choices. And in back, where the store is particularly jammed, you notice the many clerks, buzzing around like busy worker bees in front of a Nespresso refill "hive" of sorts. Add the number of Nespresso bags you see shoppers carrying in the streets, and you realize that the store's success is perhaps more than a novelty fad.
This posed a great mystery to me. How could a culture so dependent on good espresso seem so smitten, at least from what I could tell, with the mediocre quality of an at-home pod machine and it's pre-ground, pre-packaged coffee? Personally, I would buy a simple Bialetti long before I'd buy one of these systems.
To solve this mystery, I think you have to start by looking a little into the Portuguese psyche. Different cultures will have different motivations, of course. But the reasons behind Lisbon's unexpected fascination with Nespresso may have parallels in other countries where sales are healthy.
Why would anyone want one of these?
First of all, the Portuguese are infatuated with modern design. Bright orange is arguably the national color. And a little unlike Italy, where historical preservation carries a tremendous reverence, the Portuguese are less reluctant to throw out the old to make way for the new. Particularly when it comes to their personal living environment. (And Lisbon is perhaps one of the greatest contrast studies between the very old and very new, coexisting side-by-side.) So from a modernist perspective, the idea of a cubic Nespresso machine in the home is quite aspirational.
Another factor: historically, the Portuguese have not made espresso at home — other than the stovetop moka pot. Good espresso is ubiquitous in Portugal's streets, so there hasn't been a motivation to make something at home that's half as good. It's a similar story in Italy. However, the quality of espresso from typical home machines has improved greatly over the past decade. And when you combine Nespresso's modern design with its compact size (interior space being another thing in short supply in Portugal), the home espresso machine becomes an achievable luxury item.
I don't see Nespresso having the same appeal in America as it does in, say, Portugal. American kitchens have grown much larger — like our SUVs and dinner plates — to accommodate bigger appliances. Modern design is nice, but it's not an obsession here. And Americans primarily drink coffee at home — and have for decades. If anything, Americans are just now learning to appreciate more of the joys of having a coffee out.
But if you are ever accosted by Nespresso salespeople while walking through a kitchen store (as I have been multiple times), do yourself a favor and just tell them it's the best coffee you've ever had and you're already stocked up for the winter. I unfortunately learned this the hard way.

[…] Coffee pods are a fad that is on life support at the value end (i.e., for machines under $100). However, home sales of high-end coffee pod makers are up significantly: MediaPost Publications – Upscale Coffee Makers Drive Segment But Overall It's Flat – 03/19/2007. As I discovered in Lisbon's fashionable Chiado district last year, an upscale market for these devices currently exists in Portugal at least. […]
[…] And yet despite the world of difference between fresh coffee beans and not, Consumer Reports concluded with much love for the Nespresso. Not that it's a bad espresso machine. But personally, I cannot make it past their required stale, pre-ground beans. Fortunately for Nespresso, many of their customers have been so conditioned by stale, pre-ground beans (the reviewers of Consumer Reports apparently included), they've come to expect — and believe there is — nothing more. […]
[…] Yet Nestlé has been very savvy at globally positioning these machines and their pod "system" as an upscale brand. (Contrast with Kraft Foods' home pod coffee system, Tassimo, which has been a financial disaster.) Today's Los Angeles Times featured an article on Nestlés marketing strategy for the Nespresso, which has included branded boutiques for showcasing the devices: Nespresso controls brand with boutiques – Los Angeles Times. (Last year we wrote about one such Nespresso boutique in Lisbon's Chiado District, including George Clooney's Portuguese ads for the stuff.) […]
we received a nespresso machine as a gift and while i am not an expert by any stretch of the imagination, i find the coffee far better than the old mr. coffee. i appreciate that it may not be the machine for the small percent of coffee gourmets, one should realize that not everyone can be fanatic about every aspect of one's life. you have picked coffee, yet someone else who is a chocolate freak may be appalled by your choice of hershey's or m&ms and calling it chocolate. what matters is that nespresso produces a nicer cup of coffee for the masses – leagues above mr. coffees! not everyone can afford the time to make each cup a religious experience, yet still want to have a cup of decent coffee. my neighbors are swiss and spanish and each recommended the nespresso as having closest to "home" coffee for them. when i go out and enjoy a "real" epresso in a restaurant, it is a lovely experience. it is part of the reason one goes out for a coffee or a restaurant is that you can't always reproduce the experience at home, hence the impetus for going out!
nespresso is not for everyone, but is does bring a good cup of coffee to many who might not otherwise have it.
"UPDATE: November 28, 2006
Be very afraid. Nespresso ads with George Clooney are coming to a TV near you: Quirky coffee ad takes a jibe at Clooney's "dark intense body"! However, this could be the sort of thing that Clooney's image handlers might allow in Japan but not the U.S."
Those ads have been aired in Portugal for quite a long time. Don't make fun of us! =P

Tamara and I went out at 5:30 AM with our friend Gary to take photos of the sun rising through the fog. I didn't end up getting what I had expected, but as usualy, I managed to find a lot of neat things. We drove out to Aldergrove from Fort Langley along the river until we ended up at River rd and Bradner where we stayed for a while, waiting for light. Then we went up Pemberton hill where I got the sun rising behind a tree, and a sunlit tree over a fence. If you notice oddly blurred trees they're a technique I was testing where you zoom while taking the photo. This is the undistorted tree. I took the many of the forested shots with my Sigma 12-24 lens.

So this is what I did. I pinned it to the facing and cut it out roughly. I sewed a quarter inch seam and trimmed the facing.
The backing is just strips of cream and some of the fabric I have used in the circles. Now I just have to sew the circles on.

PAC money: Two state House candidates turn down special-interest dollars
Two legislative candidates — Republican Jeff Hare and Democrat Jovan Melton — have refused money from special interest political-action committees, earning them the support of a newly formed group.
CleanSlateNow.org — with the slogan "People … not Money" — is pushing voters to support Hare and Melton in Tuesday's primary election.
Hare, of Greeley, faces Stephen Humphrey of Severance in House District 48. Melton faces Terry Todd, husband of state Rep. Nancy Todd, who is running for the Senate, in House District 41 in Aurora.
CleanSlateNow sent out this campaign e-mail:
We have put a big effort into helping our two primary candidates who have made the courageous decision to turn down special interest PAC money. This is a mail-in primary, and thousands of people have their ballots still sitting on their dining room tables. If we call them, we will get some of them to mail them in for our candidates.
… These two races are sitting on a razor's edge and could fall either way. Our work in these last few days will make the difference. No really, it will. Don't be sitting at home on Tuesday night and find out that a candidate who didn't take PAC money lost by three votes, when you could have helped make the difference.

Weather spurs early roadwork
For those keeping track, you can now add "spring roadwork in January" to the unusual occurrences resulting from this season's drier-than-usual weather.
The city of South Lake Tahoe has been using street crews to fill in cracks and perform other small maintenance tasks instead of doing what it normally does this time of year: plow snow.
Similarly, Caltrans survey workers have been busy checking pipe and manhole depths along Highway 50. It's preliminary work, but spokesman Steve Nelson said it keeps the organization ahead of schedule.
"They are able to just catch up on things they wouldn't normally be able to do," he said.
Work on certain large-scale road projects is not permitted due to restrictions from government agencies, such as the Tahoe Regional Planning Agency.
Still, completing some work now does have its benefits, said Jim Marino, assistant public works director for the City of South Lake Tahoe.
"It helps get the projects going faster," he said.
During normal winters — or winters with a lot more snow — the city's public works department spends most of its time plowing the streets or repairing damage from wild vehicles and violent storms.
Sign replacement and damage claims are typical during all-white winters. But the city also spends a significant sum of money on roadway abrasives — such as sand — before storms hit and street-sweeping efforts after storms pass, Marino said.
The city usually goes through about 50 tons of roadway abrasives per year.
Without the snow, however, there's no doubt the city is saving quite a bit of money as the drier conditions continue, Marino said.
"We haven't expended near the amount of budget we should have," he said.
While the weather has helped some agencies get a jumpstart on roadwork, it has also helped some non-roadwork projects stay on schedule.
The Chateau project — the fenced construction site located across from Harveys — has continued to make progress on about 28,000 square feet of proposed retail and restaurant space.
The weather hasn't put the project ahead of schedule, but it's still on track to hit its targeted completion date of July 2014, said Lew Feldman, a South Lake Tahoe attorney involved with the project.
"Had we had a brutal winter, it might have delayed the project," he said. "But the risk seems to be behind us."
South Lake Tahoe received its first snow in awhile Thursday evening.

3:00 – 6:00 p.m. Thursday, March 29, 2011
Adair County Annex Building, 301 N. Franklin
I invite you to attend the Livable Streets Workshop 3:00 p.m. – 6:00 p.m. on Thursday, March 29, 2011 at the Adair County Annex Building, 301 N. Franklin. People want to live in a vibrant community filled with opportunity. Part of that package is a city where people can safely get around, whether it's by car, bicycle or foot—this is where the concept of Livable Streets comes in. We hope you'll join us in the discussion of how Livable Streets can fit in the Kirksville community. Hosted by the City of Kirksville Parks and Recreation Department and MU Extension, the workshop is free, and will be followed by a City-sponsored Open House from 6:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m. to discuss the City of Kirksville's Master Trail Plan and the proposed FLATS Trail.
Livable Streets is a design and planning approach that considers the needs of drivers, as well as the transportation needs of children and families, the disabled, seniors and bicyclists. Across the state, there is growing interest in applying Livable Streets elements to new planning and transportation projects, such as the Master Trail Plan and the FLATS Trail.
