It was one of those days when you would return home from work starving. I had some leftover sweetened condensed milk from making carrot halwa the other day and was wondering how can I put it to use with what was available in my pantry and something that can be quickly prepared. I came across this recipe here and didn't think twice before trying it out. I have made slight variations to the proportions, with an intention of making it less fattening ;).
Unsalted butter, softened – 1/2 cup
Sweetened condensed milk – 1/2 cup
All-purpose flour – 1.5 cups
Baking powder – 2 tsp
Salt – 1/2 tsp
Chocolate chips – 1/3 cup
Yields: 20
- Preheat your oven to 350F
- In a bowl, mix together the butter and condensed milk
- Sift together the all-purpose flour, baking powder and salt and add to the wet ingredients
- Mix until well combined. Use your hands if needed to roll into a nice dough
- Add the chocolate chips and knead just enough to mix them
- Roll them into little balls and place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper
- Bake for about 12-15 minutes
- Remove the cookies on to a cooling rack and allow to cool before serving or transferring to an air-tight container
Tip: This cookie resembles a shortbread cookie in terms of texture, softness and taste. You can increase the butter quantity as in the original recipe to get a crispier texture.

I don't understand why people should pay for tv chanels they don't want to watch, why can't Multichoice do a research on which of their channels are the most popular and then get rid of the useless ones.
Or at least drastically reduce subscription prices.
What they are going to do is to add more useless channels that they got at a very cheap price so they can push to get R650-R700 out of us, criminals if you ask me.
The difference in America is that TV is A LOT cheaper than here. It's daylight robbery for Multichoice to charge over R600pm for TV. Internet is becoming cheaper, electronics are becoming cheaper, computers/DVD's/CD's etc too. Yet every year, the DSTV charge becomes more and more ridiculous...
Its quite simple, Gov says we need a certain amount of local content... which is genrally crap TV, so that gets moved to some of the less popular channels, to keep the puplic who pay watching the stuff they want to watch... closing all the alternative channels will kill the local production industry before they mature and produce something worth watching....
And before you say " thats ok, put it on the popular channels and don't screen the popular stuff", I,like loads of other people, will not pay to watch the local crap, stop our subscription and that will be that.... the end of DSTV, Mnet, TopTv etc etc The only one to survive would be SABC, and that would be (as usual) because the TAX payer is paying for it to keep its doors open... And I will not watch SABC, because that is really crap TV
If this argument holds water, it is abundantly clear that Multi Choice has too many rubbish in its bouquet. Retain the popular channels and lower the subscription fee and you might be surprised how many new subscribers will join.
Why are we subsidising these no good channels, they should have told us this is a charity organisation, I don't to pay just to keep afloat somone who has a dream of owning a channel, if they struggling they must merge.
No matter how much we complain, Multichoice does not listen to us!
Vote by cancelling your subscription.
I cancelled my subscription because I was not prepared to pay the constant rise in cost for the sevice. It was difficult at first, not having access to shows I frequented. But my family & I have overcome this need and moved on to other things in our lives.
Looking back we realized DSTV was nothing more than an addiction and the reason why most subscribers complain about the cost but continue paying for the service.
Oh, and forget about DSTV, reducing the cost when there is still a demand for the service, and everyone's hooked on a couple of 'good' shows. They don't give a damn about the subscribers, that's why they constantly raise the cost and add rubbish content as justification.
Remember, there are greedy shareholders that expect return on their investments. Cancel subscription, or pick a cheaper bouquet.
MultiChoice get a lot of these rubbish channels for free and sell them to us. Wwe don't ask for them, we don't want them yet we have to pay for them. In other words we are being forced to pay for all this tripe, just because we want to watch sports and one or two other channels. The sooner we are allowed to choose our channels the better. Mind you then MultiChoice will probably make it even more expensive.Greed being the motivator here.
Well good news for Google TV and Apple TV, apparently you will be able to search for something too look for like Youtube, it's basically Youtube, and Google is getting new directors to make shows exclusively for them. In the end the whole industry is going to change.
I understand the problem that the niche shows would lose out and niche viewers would lose their shows. However, why should the average viewer subsidise shows he doesn't want?
Instead, to make it fair and still profitable why don't the pay channels sell bundles of 20, 30, 100 etc. shows... but shows you can choose. So the jocks can choose sports channels, the nerds can choose science channels, average Joe can mix and match, but he still has to pay for 20 or 30 or 100 channels.
This should even things out and the jocks, nerds, music fans, movie buffs and average Joe will be happy, paying for something they actually want.
Good call, Neil. But do we REALLY expect Multichoice to pick up on this and run with it? NO way - they have a fu@ken monopoly with no competition - why would they want to stop raking in money? It is up to US - the public - to make them change by unsubscribing ....
So basically they are saying that if they have to compete for viewers they will fail? Competition improves performance, we wan't to have better channels! We want to pay for what we want not what we don't! Maybe it would stop (or at least decrease) below standard entertainment...
I feel NOTHING for Multichoice/Dstv, overseas pay channels is a different matter though. We don't have enough competition to Multichoice here, and when there is they practice anti-competitive behaviour. A standalone example of this is how they stopped the importing of DVD recorders into South-Africa, purely because it affects THEIR OWN PVR sales countrywide:
DVD Recorders and Multichoice/DSTV
1. DVD - HDD Recorders and DSTV
3. LG digital TV DVD recorder .... UK [ not allowed in SA ]
Ok so in America with a population of around 311 million people, these trustworthy independent researchers...questioned 500 people, that's about 0.00016% of the population. And based on this they believe there results are conclusive. BAH! Their independent study was most likely funded by the "invisible hand" that keeps screwing the people in the US same as here with us.
And for the rest of you...stop crying and moaning about the cost of your MultiChoice. It's there in the name...it was your "CHOICE" to buy their rubbish. No one is forcing you to buy it, and why should MultiChoice listen to morons who complain about their product but buy it anyway. If you don't like the price of DSTV, cancel your subscription or shut-up.
I personally don't watch tv. To get decent veiwing I'd have to get the full package, which unfortunately for multichoice to rich for my blood. I'm very happy with my monitor and gaming. Besides it's still cheaper to buy a contract at the local video store and rent a movie or two every day, then it is to get satelite tv. If your local video store polishes their dvds and people take care when handling them, they should work 99% of the time. Plus you get what you want without those lowd add breaks :)
It is not only the rubbish channels that are included in our monthly subscription but the repeats! "Who wants to be a Millionaire" programs are being shown repeatedly that go as far back as 2002-2005. We don't need a HDPVR to record programs - we get them repeated till they come out of our ears each week!
Its about the greedy shareholders, remember?
The entertainment industry always comes out with something like this. The cassette recorder will kill the music industry. The VCR will kill the TV industry. The DVD will kill the movie industry. These divices have been around for a while now and I haven't seen Brad and Angelina looking for handouts at the stop street yet. Freedom of choice for the consumer is always resisted by these corporations.
Multichoice will never change the way they currently conduct business, why should they? I don't agree with the monopoly they have and the way they treat their viewers like fools but the only solution to this problem is if the viewers implement a complete BOYCOTT of the company, this will force them to take immediate action and re-look at their business model. I personally would support any sort of boycott action taken against DSTV.
So what most of you are saying is lets all watch the same channels with Little choice. What one person finds boring is another persons favorite.
You think Naspers will lose money. If there are 5 channels left expect to pay R120 per channel. Or they will take the most popular channel and charge R300 and the other 4 at R75 each.
I have the internet and so don't watch much T.V When they drop the financial programs e.g. Summit they would lose me as a viewer and the rest of you can pick up the tab. Yes Naspers (DSTV) is charging too much but this is because of lack of competition and signing up all the sport and overseas distributors. There is nothing you can do, either pay or switch off.
Oh and sorry those of you who support Government intervention can look forward to staring @ a test pattern each evening.
We've downgraded to Select 2, purely because we enjoy watching Kyknet. It's a rip off paying R600pm for all the repeats, and we're not addicted to sport either. Internet can provide the movies & music on demand, as and when we want to.
What rubbish! Mnet made fortune, as a separate stand-alone channel (crayon!) waaaaaay before DSTV and its bundles (crayon boxes) came into existence. And that was in a time when SABC was still producing entertaining content. Besides which - this is a yank study. What relevance does it have in this country. Must be a DSTV press release to news24!
judging from the aboveAmerican research the logical and athical thing for dstv and toptv to do is to drastically reduced their subscribtions to satisfy their customers who must pay for things they dont need and mostly dont want
There must have been 30 odd comments here - all negative. Do yourself a favour and lobby 4 - 5 people every month to cancel their subscriptions, and within 6 months DSTV will have got the message.
Totally agree....Lets post on DSTV'S facebook what we intent to do...and see what happens...Everyone that plans on cancelling...let them know...give them 1 month to think about their options and let's see - Power to the people....
This is complete and utter BS.
Tata Sky TV has been doing exactly that, very successfully and affordable.
I have been advocating this for many a years now. We as South African are addicted, or let me say the privileged are addicted to DSTV and , let me go on, cars, useless gadgets etc etc. We know we are paying way way too much for a product, but we will still get it. We are in a sick cycle of consumerism, which is about to kill us. I hv been travelling the world, and SA is one of the most expensive[ on the backdrop of income] in the world. I take for instance the Hummer that was fully built in SA. It costed us R300k+ and the same vehicle being exported to the middle east costed them halve the price. Tell me HOW. So we will be talking about this issue for many more years till Mzanzi wakes up and smell the roses. DSTV should even cost us R300. Unlimited ADSL internet should not even cost us R150 p/m for the fastest speed availible. What do we pay ? R2000 - R3000 p/m. Daylight robbery ? ? Fo sure...And all the ombudsman are also in bed with these people. I have written quit a few letters already concerning this economy, that is build around the rich....Will we get anywhere ? ? Hope so, but it's not gonna happen soon. Look at car pricing, REDICULOUS....Eskom just hiked our energy, and what do they show ? How many billions of Profit ???Oh Yes fo the CEO and his croneys to get a FAT BONUS YA....Telkom is not far behind, and also a monopoly [ Oh sorry I forgot it's Government driven]....Peace Family....
This report has nothing to do with South African pay TV suscribers. In South Africa there is nothing much that is being produce here. Nearlly all pay TV material view on South Africa pay per view channels are imported from Americans so this report has nothing to do with what will happen if done. Mathematically those that are say it will be expensive to unbundle the channels, and most would cease to survive. If it does not worth watching why should it survive. views's needs need to be cartered first. If i need only sport channel on DSTV why should i pay to keep Big brother Africa, and the Idols running. I need to choose what I want to see. If there are viewers who want to pay to see other small channels let them pay what ever would be charge. We can not continue with this as if its an amensalism.
Then let them die off. I am only prepared to pay for what I want to watch. If there are channels nobody want, get rid of it. That is why I cancelled my MNET subscription. I am not going to get something yhat is useless to me. Only the top parcel has MNET. So stuff them. The lowest packet has only junk channels. Multichoice, may you rest in pieces.
So am I right if I say then that we pay people to produce unviewable crap that was not viable to stand on its own in any case. If a channel is too crappy to solicit viewers, why must we put money in the pockets of the producers. It sounds like a racket to me, where the general public are forced to pay people for basically nothing.

The low-fare airline founder was also instructed to pay about £13,000 in costs after B&B took him to court claiming he had failed to settle a £2.3m legal bill in full.
The hearing, on March 2, was held in front of Master Eastman, who denied the entrepreneur leave to appeal to that court.
A furious Sir Stelios, who has since paid B&B, yesterday maintained the firm had presented him with a "humongous" bill, including £90,000 for photocopying.
Describing B&B's partner on the case, Jane Mutimear, as the "photocopying queen", he said he would be "seeking permission to appeal from a higher court".
"I am extremely disappointed to learn that the master has deprived eGIP [easyGroup IP] of its right to have these outrageous costs properly scrutinised by an experienced costs judge who could adjudicate on their fairness," Sir Stelios said. "A charge of £90,000 for photocopying is simply ludicrous, and this is just a small example."
In his witness statement he also complained of "a vast number of hours" billed by junior employees.
He said the case left him "worried about the state of justice in the UK". Sir Stelios said that other people who were outraged by their legal bills lacked "the means to take it to the court of appeal like I do. It reminds me of the saying: turkeys will never vote for Christmas."
B&B declined to comment.
Having settled the brand dispute, Sir Stelios is in line for royalties from easyJet of £10m a year by 2013.
B&B is not alone in suing over unpaid bills. Consultant Amir Eilon is seeking £53,375 and former easyCar boss Bill Jones, £70,000, while Nick Manoudakis, a former easyGroup finance director is claiming £78,000. Sir Stelios is defending all the claims.

Shaquille O'Neal believes the NBA superstars should not miss their chance to play in the Rio Olympics 2016.
Several big-name stars like Stephen Curry, Blake Griffin, Chris Paul, John Wall, and LaMarcus Aldridge have already dropped out of Rio 2016 due to injuries.
Some reports indicated some NBA stars are afraid of contracting Zika virus while in Brazil. Also, the crime rate in Brazil is high, which is also a factor to a lot of people.
Meanwhile, O'Neal doesn't think there's anything to worry about.
In a sit-down interview with Business Insider before speaking at American Express' "Teamed Up" event in New York City, O'Neal said he would attend the Olympics if he were invited as a player.
While O'Neal didn't address the concerns over Zika directly, he did say that he doesn't think players need to worry for their safety in Rio.
"Sports and music are the only two things that settle people down, for some reason," said O'Neal. "I've been in some hostile countries, and I haven't had a problem at all. By myself. Uzbekistan, Russia, I'm going to Cuba, been to China, been to Korea, been to a lot of places by myself."
"And because of sports… You know, there's rules when it comes to the Olympics, there's unwritten rules, and I'm sure that the Brazilians will follow that because they know if they don't, there will be repercussions. So, we haven't had any problems. I think the last time we had a problem that I remember was, when, Berlin? And that's the last time. I don't think these guys will have any problems."
Regardless, O'Neal believes that the Olympics are too big of an opportunity to pass up on for athletes who are currently on the fence.
O'Neal himself played for the Dream Team 2 that won the gold at the 1994 World Basketball Championships in Toronto and he also won the gold medal at the 1996 Olympic Games in Atlanta.
A dominant force in the NBA, Shaquille O'Neal was selected to 15 all-star Games, won four NBA titles (three with Los Angeles Lakers, one with Miami Heat).
He is considered to be among the best centers ever to play in the NBA. O'Neal played in 1207 NBA games (1197 started), averaging 23.7 ppg, 10.9 rpg, 2.3 bpg in 34.7 minutes of action.

Posters 2-7 - how childish can you get?
I liked the game until I got stuck at "Bounce", and I can't find any walkthrough. Is there a way to get up there? I mean, I am on the left platform, but I can't get to the right platform because its too far to jump and not low enough to reach it from jumping off the bombs. Anybody got any ideas?
- 17 March 2010 at 04:37
@ Carly
When you're already at the left platform you can get to the right (green) platform with jumping of the bullets. Just try to hold down the jump-button when hitting a bullet, then you will jump a little bit higher.
- 17 March 2010 at 16:59
Carly, as horrorshow said. it's possible to do it that way.
As for me, I gave up on the last level :P
- 17 March 2010 at 17:56
easyest game ever haha actually im stuck but i got pretty far i think
- 17 March 2010 at 18:56
Hey Horrorshow...
Thanks for the tip, but I tried that already. I bounced off teh bullets a few times but not high enough. Will give it another try and then I'll give up :(
- 17 March 2010 at 19:40
Don't jump once and hold the button. Jump, land on a bullet, and hit jump again. You'll go higher.
It does work. Made it to the BEAT THIS level and then packed it in.
- 17 March 2010 at 20:19
Got it! :) That was really the hardest level for me - the rest was pretty easy... :)
Thanks, horrorshow, for making me wanna try again :)
- 17 March 2010 at 20:19
blir nød til at del det her med nogle. der skete det sygeste på min rideskole i dag. en privatejede sportspony sparkede tre tænder ud af sin ejers kæreste. han slog sfølg op men er det ikke bare stygt. det sker når heste behandles dårligt, så jeg ska måske behandl den.
mega dårligt spil.

lulz at the first seven comments.
this game doesn't appeal to me. the character is cute enough, but idk its not simplistic or minimalistic in a good way; there are lots of good games that are relatively simple, but this is not part of that category.
good challenges and all, and level design was sometimes great (other times bad) but it did not keep my attention long enough, which really is an important part of online games. that or wanting to play again, which it also didn't do for me

Anonymous: something about poorly treated horses? Huh? Does this have to do with this game? Cause I didn't see horses about - just lots of hats! ;)
- 18 March 2010 at 06:17
Is the last level just possible? I got through all the other ones, but I cant do that last one.
- 20 March 2010 at 13:34
It is possible I think. I got through the 'loop' several times, but you have to do it twice in a row I think. Very hard.
- 23 March 2010 at 03:07
Just did it, thanks you, last anonymus, you have to do it twice. ( without dying of course)
I tried to create a replay link to show it ( so proud ! )but I can't do it, can anybody explain me ?

The British Red Cross in Somerset is looking for compassionate volunteers to provide practical and emotional support to people who have recently been discharged from hospital, helping them regain their independence.
When Bob May, from Street, slipped and fractured his arm he thought that a short stay in hospital would be the worst of his problems. Unfortunately, when friends stopped by his home they realised things were about to get a lot worse for the 92 year old.
Bob's home was a scene of utter devastation. Ceilings had collapsed and Bob's furniture and belongings were all damaged by flood water that reached the window sills.
"I'd lost virtually everything" said Bob. "We managed to save a few pictures that were on the walls, but other than that everything was a write-off."
While his home was refurbished, Bob was admitted to sheltered housing accommodation. When Bob was finally able to return home 10 months later, he began receiving regular visits from Valerie Collins, a volunteer with the Red Cross home from hospital service, who helped him settle back into his home.
Val said: "I was able to help Bob move his belongings back into his home and set up his new microwave and telephone to make it easier for him to remain independent and keep in contact with his friends and family. I also made sure that there was plenty of food in the cupboards."
"Val was a great help" said Bob. "She used to stop by a couple of times a week and have a nice chat and do some shopping for me when I needed it. She was very thoughtful and always good company. The service that the Red Cross provided was fantastic and I certainly can't fault Val. She's brilliant."
The Red Cross offers short-term care and support in the home for people after an accident or illness, giving them the confidence to continue their daily lives. This service can be provided following a stay in hospital or to prevent unnecessary hospital admissions.
Val explained why she enjoys volunteering for the service: "It is so rewarding to see the people you support get their confidence back after a stay away from home. At first it may be that you go out shopping for them, and then they may ask for you to take them shopping, and finally they may say 'I think I'm ok to go by myself now'.
"It's wonderful to see that progression of confidence. For me, that's what makes it all worthwhile."
Volunteers need to be compassionate and have a friendly and caring personality. The role requires volunteers to make home visits giving practical support based on individual needs. This could include shopping, collecting prescriptions, companionship and also providing emotional support whilst helping to rebuild confidence.
To find out more, please contact Tracey Miller, home from hospital team leader on 01823 273707 or email: email@example.com

93 Year Old Body Builder
Dr. Charles Eugster, back in 2012, gave a TEDx talk in Zurich on the importance of body building. He was 93 at the time. In that presentation, he told about his experience when he was a much younger 85. It seems he looked in the mirror and didn't like what he saw.
Of course, sooner or later everybody does that, young and old alike. And most folks don't do much about it (except to stop looking in the mirror so often). But on that particular day, Eugster decided to change what he was seeing.

This morning I wanted to do a little running before I hit up a strength class at the gym. Time was against me so I did 3 miles on the treadmill and hurried off. *Oh, I also sent my phone (used as an ipod) crashing to the ground at one point. Lame.
Since I'm new to the gym, and it's big and a little confusing I might have peeked in the wrong room for the stength class I wanted. I ended up going to a different room for STRIKE! class. I had never done a class like this before. We basically did moves similar to kickboxing but some of them included a bar. It was fun!
On the way to the gym I ate breakfast: cottage cheese, apples, blubes and cereal. I totally scarfed this down in a hurry and was less than satisfied because I ate too fast – oops.
When I got home I was hungry. I thought breakfast on the way to the gym would help avoid that, but oh well. I had a piece of toast with PB & pb. Yum!
I am loving this WW Tuscan Pane from TJ's. I normally just buy the bread with the least calories and most fiber. I never even think about what kind of bread I like. Well, I've decided life is too short too eat bad bread and got a winner 🙂Bread love – I also love sourdough and cinnamon raisin bread!Well, those are my faves, but I don't discriminate when it comes to my carb love:)
Question: What's your favorite kind of bread??

Last week I made some amazing cashew and macadamia nut cheese sour cream. I usually always stick with cashews but I just ran short of my usual "1 cup" that I needed to soak as the base. So instead I added some left over macadamia nuts in with the cashews and soaked those for a couple of hours. With a touch of apple cider vinegar, salt and pepper, water I gave it a quick blend in the food processor. Topped with with a few handfuls of fresh chives from a friend of the family and voila we had an amazing creamy sour cream or nut cheese. It was thick from the macadamia nuts so it kind of resembled part cheese part cream. Either way it was so yummy and it went perfectly well with these raw flax cracker wraps that I had in the fridge.
Quick and Easy Meal: Raw Flax Wraps
So they are stacked high with green pea sprouts, avocado, some hot spices, cherry tomatoes and cream. They were so good and easy that I think I had them a couple of times that week. For those who want to make it more substantial you can add in some black beans puree and have a Mexican style wrap which I did for another day. Things have been really busy for the last couple of weeks and I am just trying to catch up so I am enjoying more of a quick style type of menu.
We are off to pick up our first CSA of the season tonight so I am super excited to see what we will have in our bin!

A couple of weeks ago my friend Patti from Lightspirited Being posted about the fascinating topic of animal communication. I commented that this is something I would like to start trying (and I do!) and that the topic enthralls me. Patti answered my comment with an email and offered to do a complimentary reading/session with my (almost) 9-year-old Cavalier King Charles Spaniel, Chester, as a means of testing the process. Patti has been practicing animal communication for years but only recently started offering her services professionally. I was more than willing to participate. As it turns out, Chester was too!
My ex-partner and I share custody of our sweet Chester and you don't even want to know the point to which we've personified him and given him a "voice". Or DO you? So of course I wanted to hear what Chester really has to say!
I emailed Patti a few photos and some questions that I was hoping she could get answers to from Chester. She was able to connect with him so well that even I (who believes whole-heartedly in this sort of thing) was shocked by the connection she had with him! Patti sent me the audio of the session – her asking Chester the questions aloud and then relaying the messages from him back to me. I laughed, I cried and I was just blown away by what she got. A couple of days after Patti sent me the audio files we connected on the phone to discuss the session and cover certain topics in greater depth.
Cool! But how does animal communication actually work?
Animals communicate via telepathy – by sending the communicator images, thoughts and emotions. As we grow (us humans, that is), we learn to rely on verbal communication and our telepathic skills are pushed aside and become out of shape — kinda like how our muscles turn to jelly if all we do is sit around like a couch potato. Just like your muscles, if these skills aren't used regularly, they become weak and need some work to get toned.
Although we can all participate in animal communication if we practice enough, we know not all of us are going to take the time to do it. It's awesome to have people like Patti in the world who offer these services to us pet lovers. I almost said "owner", but anyone who's ever had a pet knows who owns who in these relationships.
Patti's connection with Chester brought me a deeper understanding of my canine family member and has strengthened our bond. It even helped solve a long-term problem that had been plaguing me (and my living room floor) for far too long! I can recommend Patti's services with confidence, so go check out her page!

Discussion in 'UPS Discussions' started by Jhcowboy, Sep 13, 2012.
Anyone know what the pay code 5E is?
I believe it is the code used on non-operational days when we deliver just NDA, 2DA and 3DS---day after Thanksgiving and New Years Eve.
air bid exception, work actual
When I deliver air, we use 5E. When I was a cover driver (recently demoted), we used 3C for ground. I noticed most of our F/T drivers use 06.
06 is for the 8 hour guarantee--05 is for hours worked (punch to punch, no lunch).
TearsInRain nailed it.

STEVE INSKEEP, host:
We've been reporting this week on Mexico's drug mafias, and this morning we'll talk about a drug cartel about which there are as many legends as facts. The U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration considers Los Zetas to be the most dangerous drug-trafficking organization in Mexico. They've earned a reputation as super-gangsters, adept at military-style ambushes and bold jailbreaks.
NPR's John Burnett tries to separate fact from fiction.
JOHN BURNETT: Here on the Tex-Mex border, the Zetas are mythic, their crimes chronicled in the media and memorialized in narco-ballads.
(Soundbite of music)
Unidentified Man: (Singing in Spanish)
BURNETT: They're the most feared, most emulated criminals in Mexico. But who are the Zetas? I started my search with the DEA's head of intelligence, Anthony Placido.
Mr. ANTHONY PLACIDO (Head of Intelligence, Drug Enforcement Administration): They are a formidable criminal organization. They're heavily armed with .50-caliber sniper rifles and heavy, military-grade ordnance.
BURNETT: Placido knows them well: In July, the DEA announced indictments of 19 top Zeta and Gulf Cartel leaders. None has been captured or killed yet.
Mr. PLACIDO: They are every bit as ferocious and as capable as a military force as some of the rumors believe them to be.
BURNETT: There were 31 original Zetas - elite army counter-narcotics commandos who defected and went to the dark side to work as enforcers for the Gulf Cartel. They're called Zetas after their radio code, the letter Z.
But after the 2003 arrest of Gulf drug lord Osiel Cardenas, as one observer put it, the lion wised up and now controls the handler.
The Zetas have morphed into their own cartel. Their zone of influence ranges from the lower Texas border, south along the Atlantic and Caribbean coastal states of Mexico, through Chiapas and all the way into Guatemala, where they trans-ship South American cocaine to Mexico.
But their base remains the charmless, industrial, border cities in the Mexican state of Tamaulipas.
(Soundbite of music)
BURNETT: Nuevo Laredo is the most important trade border crossing in Latin America, and it's Zeta territory.
From 2004 to 2007, the Zetas fought a savage turf war with Sinaloan interlopers with bazooka and grenade attacks. Now, the gun battles have quieted, and the streets of Nuevo Laredo seem outwardly normal again.
Unidentified Man: Hola, hola, hola, hola. Como esta? hola. Aqui esta.
BURNETT: Residents still won't talk about the Zetas, fearing retribution. A well-connected local journalist agreed to speak candidly if she would not be recorded.
Her comments are read here by NPR's Marisa Penaloza.
MARISA PENALOZA: People feel more secure now, that's for sure, but we're still wary. No one even honks their horn in the streets here. You might anger the wrong person. And now, every thug with a pistol says he's a Zeta because he knows it terrifies people here. I had my car spray-painted with graffiti recently - Zeta 25. It was some gangbangers. They're all little Zeta wannabes.
BURNETT: To get the official story, I went to the ornate Presidencia Municipal and sat down with Mario Mendoza, the fresh-faced, recently appointed, 28-year-old police chief of Nuevo Laredo. Mendoza is understandably reticent. Four years ago, an earlier police chief announced on his first day on the job: I'm not beholden to anyone. By day's end, he was lying dead with 30 bullet holes in him, the work, reportedly, of a Zeta hit squad.
I asked Mendoza point-blank about the extent of the Zeta underworld. He blanched.
Chief MARIO MENDOZA (Police Chief, Nuevo Laredo): (Spanish spoken)
BURNETT: I can't tell you if they exist or not. You read a lot about them, but I can't tell you if they're here. What I can say is that our city is very, very, very tranquil.
To get a clearer picture of what the Zetas are doing in Nuevo Laredo, you actually have to cross the international bridge to Laredo, where people are not as afraid to talk.
Roberto Garcia is a homicide detective in the Laredo Police Department who earned local notoriety for sending two Zeta assassins who operated in Laredo to prison.
Garcia says as a border cop for 18 years, even he's shocked by the cartels' gruesome games of one-upmanship.
Mr. ROBERTO GARCIA (Homicide Detective, Laredo Police Department): Well, I'll kill two of you. OK, you kill two of me, I'll kill three of yours, plus cut off their heads. Okay, I'll make a - agiso(ph). And it's like they're trying to…
BURNETT: Agiso?
Mr. GARCIA: Yeah, agiso. They'll put them in a 55-gallon drum, fill it with gasoline, and they'll burn the body and they'll just, you know, be just bones or ashes. OK, let's - let me top you off. You know, let's - you do this, I'm going to do that.
BURNETT: Law-enforcement sources say it's hard to tell who is a true Zeta anymore. Many of the original 31 military deserters have been killed or captured. What's more, Garcia says, there are copycats.
Mr. GARCIA: A lot of people say, we're Zetas, and they're not even involved with the Zetas. They don't have nothing to do with the Zetas. They terrorize people. They do a lot of extortions, calling business owners: Hey, we're Zetas. We're going to kidnap you if you don't do this.
BURNETT: The real Zetas, like any ambitious mafia, have expanded into all sorts of rackets, says Stephen Meiners. He's a Latin America analyst for STRATFOR, a global intelligence company based in Austin.
Mr. STEPHEN MEINERS (Latin America Analyst, STRATFOR): The Zetas have been a very good case study for what happens to Mexican criminal organizations when the government crackdown makes it harder to traffic drugs across Mexico. The result for the Zetas has been that they expand into all these other forms of criminal activity in order to make money: extortion, kidnapping for ransom, human smuggling and now oil siphoning.
BURNETT: That's right, pipeline siphoning. In August, Mexican authorities reported the Zetas used false import documents to smuggle at least $46 million worth of oil in tankers to U.S. refineries. What law enforcement fears the most are Zeta jailbreaks - broad daylight, frontal attacks to free their captured comrades.
Today, authorities in Guatemala are taking extraordinary security measures to guard a top Zeta commander, Daniel Perez Rojas, alias Cheeks. They're anxiously awaiting his extradition to Mexico. He was arrested in Guatemala last year for drug trafficking.
Mr. EDY MORALES (Chief of Guatemalan Prison System): (Spanish spoken)
BURNETT: This is a highly delicate matter, said Edy Morales, chief of the Guatemalan prison system. He said the high-value prisoner is constantly rotated between cells, his hearings are held in secret chambers inside the prison, and he's guarded by Guatemalan army special forces.
Mr. MORALES: (Spanish spoken)
BURNETT: We know very well who the Zetas are, the prison chief said, and we're ready to prevent whatever kind of escape attempt, by land or air.
Zeta influence here in the United States is debatable. Local police say Zeta operatives have been identified in Texas cities such as Laredo and Dallas, though the DEA still maintains cartel spillover violence is minimal. But they don't necessarily have to cross the border to be dangerous.
On September 4th, there was a firefight between traffickers and Mexican soldiers in the streets of Matamoros, right across the Rio Grande from the University of Texas at Brownsville. Bullets flew across the river and struck the rec center and a parked car on campus, says interim provost Tony Zavaleta.
So what does that mean when you have bullets flying across your campus from a drug shootout in Matamoros?
Mr. TONY ZAVALETA (Interim Provost, University of Texas, Brownsville): I'm not going to say that it's becoming normal or that we're going to take it cavalierly, but it's not that unusual anymore.
BURNETT: So who are the Zetas? They're very, very dangerous.

COMMUNITY leaders have come together to celebrate the progress that's been made on a major development.
A ceremony was held at the building site of a £12m community hub in Somers Town, Portsmouth, because the building has now reached its full height.
The Lord Mayor of Portsmouth Cllr Lynne Stagg poured cement into the base of a column and was given a commemorative trowel by contractors BAM.
Cllr Stagg said: 'The building is absolutely wonderful.
'It's going to be a meeting point in Portsmouth.
'When I taught at St Luke's School – now Charter Academy – in 1979 the two parts of Somers Town were divided because Winston Churchill Avenue cut right through the middle.
'Putting this development in the middle of the area makes it more accessible.'
Most of the wooden beams, which were imported from Switzerland, are now in place.
The top is 18m high from the road.
The roof will now be covered with sheets of aluminium and the interior will be fitted out over the next nine months.
The building – called Somers Town Central – is expected to be finished by next summer.
As previously reported in The News, the hub will span Winston Churchill Avenue and is set to house a modern community centre with sports facilities and café, a new health centre and a youth club with an outdoor ball court.
It will occupy 4,000sq ft of floor space.
Thorsten Terweiden, head of The Swiss Business Hub, said he was delighted the materials being used would be for the benefit of local people.
'I am delighted to be here,' he said.
'It's a great honour and it's great to see how Switzerland's timber can be used to create an incredible facility.
'It's great knowing that we are contributing to the local economy.'
The futuristic-looking building has 18 curved beams which are kept in place by steel rods. Each beam is made up of different bits of timber which have been fitted together.
Project manager Kevin Hudson said: 'We are bang on schedule.
'The engineering is extraordinary.'
Councillor Rob Wood said: 'People can look through this building now and speculate what the finished product will look like.'

In June I had a small exhibit in a Co-op Gallery in Chanute, Kansas. This time I remembered to take a few pics during and not just afterwards :0)
Tag Archives: exhibit
Sitting here at my computer, it is a blustery day in Kansas. So windows are shut tight and allergy problems are being attempting to be avoided. I did get out over the weekend though. Sunday marked the annual Neosho Valley Art Exhibit at the Chanute Art Gallery. I was pleasantly surprised to be awarded the Best of Show for the second year in a row.
Mr. Derosa of Coffeyville judged and critiqued the show very professionally. But probably the best comment I heard was 'The best thing Bob Ross ever did was die."
Aside from the award it was amazing seeing everyone again. Many of these people I have known close to twenty-five years. Hubby even came with me. :0)
In the studio/office I am working through the piles of "stuff" I have let get away from me. Again I have a VERY large pile of books sitting on the floor, checked out from the library. I prefer to work in an orderly environment and like many always attempting to tame the clutter.
Aside from the expected knitting and art books I also read a number of business books. One particular book that is resonating with me is "Overcoming Underearning" by Barbara Stanny. Women and creatives seem to have a big problem in this area. or, at least I do and many around me do! (Note: Link on cover goes to Amazon, but I am not currently an affiliate.) FYI The copy I have checked out is covered with Post-It Notes for areas I need to look into further.
Easter is going to be here before I know it and we are hoping to have grandkids here that weekend. Oh and their parents too of course. So mentally I am thinking of what I need to get accomplished before then. On the top of the agenda, after getting all the books under control, is to have a painting currently on the easel completed and a shawl for the month of April begun.
The painting is for inclusion in a solo exhibit coming up in June and the shawl is for a collection i want to release later on in the year.
Just a quick recap of the past week:
This past Saturday was the opening of my show at The Bowlus Fine Arts Center. A collection of oil painted portraits on stretched canvas.
I can not say enough good about the staff at The Bowlus! The day we were to hang the show my back was out, and I was walking like a bent-over-little-old lady. It reminded me of a "Evolution of Man" chart. The more vertical throughout the day, the straighter and more upright I became. But the employees were all extremely helpful, positive and dependable.
We had a decent turnout and other than my social awkwardness things went smooth. Note: I am much more comfortable in front of an easel than I am in front of a crowd.
Tip: I forgot to designate someone to take photos that evening. I wish I had! Hubby and I were so caught up in everything we both overlooked it. So if you can find a trusted friend to take some candid shots during a reception it is a good idea.
For a long while now I have thought, "If I can just get this show together it will be smooth sailing for a bit". HA! Was that ever a chance for God to laugh at my plans.
The very next morning (Sunday) my Dad was admitted to the hospital, in ICU sixty miles away. By the time I got there, an hour later, he was sitting in bed joking around with nurses. By Tuesday he was released and going for his daily walk at the local Wal-Mart. (SMH) Thankful, but NEVER boring around here for long!
What is next? I want to finish up a couple of pieces that I wish I had had completed for the show. Try to take things up a notch as far as size and skill. The immediate time pressure is off on these two so it will be interesting to see if they come out as I envision.
Still obsessed with knitting, and now that it is getting cooler it is calling me louder. I am sure lace will not add much warmth in a Kansas Winter, but that is what I am hooked on of late. It helps me clear my head. This is particularly true of knitting shawls. They are large enough to hold my interest between painting, but small enough to carry with me.
Also, if there are any writer's reading this I am sure you are aware that as of today it is National Novel Writing Month! If you are not familiar with NANOWRIMO, it is a non-profit program that encourages people to write fifty-thousand words during the month of November. I have participated in the past, and want to this year. But my want, and hours available are not cooperating. I have not openly committed to participating yet this year. Then again, November isn't over yet either.
Last but not least, in a little over a week I have vacation time from my day-job in a public library. Nine days in a semi-open time frame to paint, knit and write! Aside from a day trip to Wichita and perhaps KC, I plan on being in full hermit mode the entire time. Ahhhh bliss!
Today was spent boxing up all the work that is ready for a show that will be hung Monday. I also updated inventory lists and made sure marketing materials are up to date. There are still three paintings I could not pack up as they are still drying in some fashion. But they will be ready to go and walk out the door by Monday.
Below are two items that will be included.
So the big question now, what is next?
- Well hopefully I will have some sales (or LOTS!) at the exhibit, perhaps line up some more commission pieces?
- Then to line up more exhibits over the next year. There are some small galleries in the area I have not shone in for years so perhaps at least one will be on the agenda.
- I now have ties in Wichita so I need to look that direction for possible opportunities. I keep thinking KC also, but Wichita is calling me.
- I also need to have reproductions made: Something else I have not looked into for years.
- Finish writing that book, the one that I now have a multitude of notes on from research!
But for now, I need to get this studio back into shape. Every surface in here is covered with books, photos, notes and painting supplies. Then I want to just sit down and knit for a few days, without interruption. To clear my head and further challenge the analytical part of my brain…..while eating chocolate. Who knows maybe I will design a thing or two while I am at it. :0)
Over the past few weeks I have been re-releasing tutorials from the old site. A few of them include:
- Another Easy Light Tent How-To
- Correct Body Proportions
- Surface Preparation of Canvas
- Make A Basic Brush Carrier
- Basic Art Business Plan Outline
I also have been painting, and adding new work to the collection for an upcoming exhibit at the Bowlus Fine Art Center! The show is due to go up October 20th, giving me just over five more weeks. This is very doable! Wish me luck <3

EMILY BENENSON can look at figure skating from a different perspective now than when she was the 5-year-old phenom of Short Hills. And what she sees has convinced her that there is more to the sport than medals.
"When you're so wrapped up in it," Miss Benenson said the other day, "it's difficult to look at anything but skating. But when you're a professional, you realize there's more out there in the world to try and experience. And it's important that you experience."
Miss Benenson has tried and experienced a great deal in the sport. She was a nationally ranked pairs skater with Jack Courtney, her partner; finished third in the 1976 United States Olympic trials ; worked with Toller Cranston in "The Ice Show" for 18 months and recently returned from the world professional championships in Spain.
Tonight at 7, Miss Benenson and Courtney — they finished second in the professional pairs competition in Spain — will join Cranston, Lisa Marie Allen, Robert Wagonhoffer, Vicky Heasly and other top skaters for the final night of "Spice on Ice" at Ice World here.
The three‐day production has been staged for the benefit of the United States Olympic Committee. One of the future Olympic hopefuls on the program will be Kim Trouse, a 15-year-old from Totowa; Miss Trouse, who attends Passaic Valley High School in Little Falls, won the Eastern novice championship in Rochester earlier this year and also was a national novice ladies competitor.Continue reading the main story
"She's a good young skater," said Miss Benenson, who also has been teaching the sport. "She has a lot of promise and is a lovely girl."
The choreography and direction for "Spice on Ice" is by Carol Wick, former United States junior ladies champion, and John Nazaratta, formerly with "Ice Capades" and "Holiday on Ice." Both are on the professional staff at Ice World.
The 22-year-old Miss Benenson is full‐time student at New York University, in addition to teaching and modeling. Unlike many who tire of the sport after their teen‐age years, she has maintained her interest in it, and last winter she appeared on a TV special starring Dorothy Hamill.
"I was fortunate at a young age," Miss Benensoin recalled •of her early years at the South Mountain Arena in West Orange. "I studied with Hans Gerschweiler, and I was fortunate to be with him for a long time."
As far as Miss Benenson is concerned, one of the big winners currently in skating is Cranston, the former Canadian and world champion. His New Jersey appearance follows rave reviews after a five‐month European tour with "Holiday on Ice."
"Toiler's a very interesting person," Miss Benenson said. "And there's nothing like his style anywhere in the world. It's definitely him. It's not even picked up from a different dance form. I don't think anybody could really copy his style."
Ruth Dubonnet of Manhattan, who is a member of the United States Olympic Committee's skating group, believes Cranston is a better skater now than when he was a bronze medalist at the Olympics.
"Everybody believes Toiler is skating much better now," Mrs. Dubonnet said while preparing for the fund-raising event. "In the last Olympics, wasn't the thing to be balletic. Now it's the O.K. thing."
Miss Benenson sees ballet and dance training equally important in the development of a young skater. Cranston's impressionistic form has played a role in pushing skating into new artistic frontiers, she said.
"Working with Toiler in 'The Ice Show' was a wonderful experience," she observed. "He's a very deep, very thoughtful person."
The two‐hour show tonight will include production numbers, as well as precision skating by the Circle Eight Skating Club, one of the program's sponsors.
Others who will perform include Linda Carbonetto, a former Canadian national champion; Gordon McKellen Jr., a former United States men's champion, and Kathi Malmberg, a former nationally ranked women's skater.
"It's a great opportunity for people in New Jersey to see great skating and skaters," Miss Benenson said.
Tickets for "Spice on Ice" cost $10 for adult patron seats, $7.50 for others and $5 for children under 12. Ice World is at Route 46 and Union Boulevard. ■

100 Words For 100 Days Challenge
I finished the challenge writing every day for 100 days! My word count for that time is 17,980 words, which isn't that much, but more than I would have had. I've discovered writing 100 words a day is really easy, and plan to continue doing it forever! And my book, Silent Thoughts, is coming along very nice! Ready to start chapter 5 of the second draft.

Great job for sticking with it! I fizzled out at the end, blame busyness and distractions, but I did get some good writing done before then.ReplyDeleteReplies
It was a little difficult at the end, because I'm up here in TN now. I had to get up early in order to have time to write.Delete

Congratulations, Keturah... I never thought it could happen with the busyness of Tennessee, but it's amazing that you did!ReplyDeleteReplies
Guess just stubbornness. Tell me I can't / won't be able to do something and I'll do it....if I want to, that is ;)Delete
100 words are not really that many! I am writing a book (I'm not sure why!) and I have got no idea of how many words I have written down. I don't write it every day though, and I am amazed that you can!!!ReplyDeleteReplies
Congratulations. ^ ^ I participated too, but I missed one day so I wrote for 99 days lol.ReplyDelete

Skybar @ de 16th floor May 26, 2011
Skybar in UB city mall (benguluru) is a must visit as its considered to be the best lounge bar around. As per the other Skybars around the world in Singapore, Malayasia etc etc , the concept has been the same with the circular bar with lighting effects with a gr8 view overlooking the entire city.
The ambience is gr8 and due to a amazing weather in the city(being bangalore as usual)the place lights up with gr8 crowd and music. I had a ball of a time enjoying the place whilist during the period lots of celebrities and famous ppl were around which i was unaware of it.. All n all who cares i came to njoy and so i am experincing it. Thou expensive,gr8 place to be as none others are close to match it.

Meet Nicole & Matt. They're getting married in June at the Circle R Ranch in Flour Mound. They met through mutual friends and after dating for about two and half years, Matt proposed to Nicole on a beach in Mexico. They are a really sweet and fun couple. Even though they're getting hitched on the night of George Straight's last concert, there's no where I'd rather be than celebrating this once in a lifetime wedding with them. I hope y'all enjoy viewing some of my favorites from their engagement portraits.

Developing repeat business with clients is the key to profitability. If you can develop repeat business, you don't have to invest as much time and effort to find new customers. Without repeat business, you'll struggle to increase your sales. Use these tips to get contracts for cleaning business.
Identifying your ideal customer
To find clients and keep them happy, you need to identify your ideal customer. Your ideal customer is a set of characteristics that your best clients have in common.
You have several resources you can use to determine your ideal customer. Start by asking your existing customers why they do business with you. Analyze your best clients and see if they have anything in common. Do they have a similar income level or age range?Another great resource is any customer that refers people to you. Those are the clients who really like your work. When you thank them for a referral, ask them: What is it about our services that you like the most? Their answers will help you identify your ideal customer.
Using a survey
Ask your clients to complete a survey. Ask open-ended questions, which allow the customer to write in their own answers. Keep the survey short- maybe 5 or 6 questions.All of these resources can help you nail down that ideal customer. You research may determine, for example, that you ideal customer is 35 to 55 years old, has a high-income level and is a busy professional. Once you know your ideal customer, you can figure out how to best serve them.
Finding your value proposition
Once you identify your best clients, you need to give them a compelling reason to do business with you. Your customers have many cleaning companies to choose from. If you provide more value than your competitors, you'll win the business. To accomplish this, you need to come up with a value proposition.
Investopedia defines a value proposition as a marketing statement that summarizes why a customer should buy your product or service. Your proposition explains how you are different than your competition. Here are some examples you might use in your cleaning business:
· Short notice: Your competitors insist that clients book their cleaning dates a week in advance. To provide better service, you're willing to show up with just one day's notice. If a client is hosting a party in two days, you are willing to clean on short notice.
· Occasional service: Assume that your competitors require customers to use their cleaning services every two weeks. Your firm is willing to clean when the client needs it, regardless of how often. Some of your clients only have their homes cleaned by professionals every month or so. Other customers only want cleaning before family events and holidays. You're willing to accommodate those needs.
· Extra services: You provide extra services that your competitors don't offer. You might, for example, offer both home cleaning and carpet cleaning services. Maybe you're able to clean fragile items well, such as silver or artwork. These extra services motivate customers to select your firm.
· Automation: To make the process easier for your clients, you automate as much of your process as possible. Clients can access a calendar and schedule their home cleaning online. You also send invoices electronically, and you allow your customers to pay online. Customers come to your firm because the process is convenient.Think about these strategies for adding value to your business.
Connect your marketing to your value proposition
All of your marketing efforts should be designed to communicate your value proposition. Your website and advertising should explain how you are different. This strategy will help you reinforce your value proposition in the minds of your clients and prospects.
Making the sale, proper follow up
To get your prospect to say yes, you may need to add an incentive. You could offer a discount for clients who are willing to commit to multiple cleaning sessions. The cost savings may motivate the customer to take action.
After that first cleaning, follow up with a phone call or by email. Ask the client if they were satisfied with your service. Give them a chance to explain how things went from their perspective.
If something didn't go as planned, you can apologize and correct the problem before the next visit. Maybe someone stepped on some plants while carrying equipment out of the home. You can alert your staff that they need to be careful entering and existing the home, since a flowerbed is very close to the door.
Understanding how needs change
Over time, your client's needs may change. A customer may need their home cleaned more often- or less often. The client may buy expensive furniture or artwork that affects how you clean the home. To keep these customers, you'll need to adapt to meet the homeowner's needs.
Repeat business: The key to profitability
Building repeat business with your customer base is the key to profitability. You'll spend more of your time on billable business, and less time looking for customers. Also, clients who use your services frequently are more likely to refer business to you.
Use these tips to keep customers coming back.
