NOW ARCHIVED / September 12 Broadcast -
It takes a lot to outrage the author of "The World Peace Diet", but Dr. WILL
TUTTLE is incensed by the inexplicable mean-spirited factually-questionable
witch hunt appearing in the current VegNews attacking Supreme Master Ching Hai
and her followers, recently recognized in an award for service by the President
of the United States, and whose noble work includes disaster relief, starting
the world's first chain of vegan restaurants, organizing global climate change
conferences, presenting invaluable compassionate and environmental programming
on Supreme Master TV, and supporting GO VEGAN WITH BOB LINDEN through restaurant
advertising. Dr. TUTTLE is outraged by VegNews' characterization as a "cult".
BOB LINDEN is more concerned about a harmful cult of vegan-hating vegan
"journalists" turning VegNews into Fox News. To read public response to this
unfortunate controversy, go to www.worldpeacediet.org and click "Supreme
Mystery". Also, this week, in the aftermath of salmonella and other food safety
issues, people yearn for the good old fashioned farm of yesteryear, or maybe
this year out in the Swiss countryside for example. Dr. TUTTLE just returned
from Switzerland and tells us how "humane" and idyllic those farms actually are
- or are not How "humane" is "Humane Choice" - the dog food that benefits
the Humane Society of the United States with each bag sold? Would you think an
H$U$ sponsored dog food would be vegan or "vegetarian"? Although the label
strives to hide it - there are animal ingredients in the H$U$ dog food, proving
once again that the Hu-mainly about the money- Society of the United States is
the animal exploitation industry itself, and not a credible animal advocacy
organization. Wake up, people - H$ - U$ is NOT US (or "WE", if you want to be
grammatically correct). Slaughterhouse waste in your USDA Organic produce?
Guest RON KHOSLA who has operated a VEGANIC farm in upstate New York for 12
years talks about truly animal-free agriculture. The farm is now for sale if you
want to buy it and you're interested in VEGANIC. GO VEGAN! GO VEGANIC!
NOW ARCHIVED / September 5 broadcast -
Part 1 of the interview with DR WILL TUTTLE examining the disgraceful VegNews
attack article on Supreme Master Ching Hai and her followers Guest JASON
MILLER (Thomas Paine's Corner and the North American Animal Liberation Press
Office) discusses animal activism in the midwest, direct action, vegan anarchy,
free speech. Why your kosher and halal meat and dairy are neither kosher
nor halal / The other white meat - a Canadian pig farmer's recipe / Happy Labor
Day Weekend - What's the most dangerous job in America?
NOW ARCHIVED /August 29 broadcast -
We continue our interview with DR SHIV CHOPRA, begun August 22, on our unsafe
corporate US food supply, poisoned by bovine growth hormone, sex hormones,
antibiotics, pesticides, and GMO's. It's enough to get you sick. How sick? DR
CHOPRA, formerly on the Canadian equivalent of the FDA and author of "Memoirs of
a Health Canada Whistleblower", tells us. He also warns Jews and Muslims that
meat and dairy in the US are neither kosher nor halal. BOB is upset with
VegNews, a publication which he has respected and admired over the years, but
now reaches a new low in journalism by attacking SUPREME MASTER CHING HAI and
her followers with a muckraking, mean-spirited, insensitive, accusatory,
innuendo-based witch hunt, disguised as an article, which is totally detrimental
to the vegan movement. If VegNews wants practice attack journalism, why not
start with targets such as Monsanto, McDonald's, or H$U$? Why would VegNews
attack such beautiful people so dedicated to promoting veganism and kindness to
animals, improved human health, and environmental sustainability; people who
care so much that they are opening vegan restaurants around the world, offering
the wonderful free content of Supreme Master Television
(www.suprememastertv.com), and are the first on the scene worldwide at natural
disasters feeding victims vegan food. Hear BOB's response this week, and DR WILL
TUTTLE's response next week. (He's as upset as Bob.) You can read the article
"Supreme Mystery" online at www.VegNews.com, after which you may want to contact
its publisher JOSEPH CONNELLY to ask that VegNews write a retraction and
apology. The VegNews phone number is 415-665-6397, and its address is 3620
Wawona Street, San Francisco, CA 94116.
NOW ARCHIVED / August 22 broadcast -
THE US FOOD SUPPLY IS UNSAFE - and I'm not even talking about almost a billion
salmonella eggs and a million pounds of ground up
E Coli cow corpse. Even without these contamination recalls, the food you eat
starts off unsafe, and gets worse from there. Prepare to be shocked by guest DR
SHIV CHOPRA, author of "Corrupt to the Core - Memoirs of a Health Canada
Whistleblower". Health Canada is the equivalent of the US FDA. DR CHOPRA is on
this week, and next, examining the massive health consequences of Bovine Growth
Hormone, other hormones, antibiotics, pesticides, and GMOs. THIS IS MUST
LISTENING FOR ALL PARENTS AND ANYONE WHO EATS (so-called) FOOD. Also this week -
from Pakistan, dodging flood waters and US drones, DR WASEEM SHAUKAT, disaster
liaison for the World Society for the protection of Animals (WSPA), on the
catastrophic flooding and its impact on humans and other animals. Is this
disaster the result of climate change / global warming, which is the result of
meat and dairy production and consumption? (Remember the Worldwatch Institute
study that blames meat and dairy for 51% of all greenhouse gas emissions?)

discussion we attended this past week, "CONSCIENTIOUS CARNIVORES", shamefully

Now the thing is my friend comes from a London Irish background and as a kid was no stranger to being part of an ethnic group caught up in a War on Terror and all that goes with it
As part of the 'bigging up' of the current terror threat being carried out by the media, politicians and the security forces, history is now being seriously rewritten and 'IRA' bombs are being portrayed as somehow less lethal than 'Islamic' ones
but they seemed pretty scary at the time
And there are plenty of parallels between the War on Terror then and now. Parallels such as…
- Bullshit terror trials that are all about securing convictions at all costs, if not of genuine terrorists then of people 'just like them'.
- Security service infiltration of terror cells and complicity in terrorist incidents taken to such an absurd level that you can't even be sure if those terror cells actually included any real terrorists
- Media misrepresentation of the causes of the conflict as being all about religion and not about more earthly concerns such a colonialism, tribalism and exclusion
For fuck's sake
So, I gently (he is a friend) chided him for not showing a little more empathy with another group of people caught up in the same kind of fucked up mess as his friends and family were
I also mentioned a few stories about the activities of dubious Muslim converts that may, and I stressed may, be examples of a Third Hand deliberately 'stirring the pot'. The damp squib that was the British Oppression demo was my most recent example
His reaction was interesting and echoed advice I have been given by a couple of other friends over the last few months
'I wouldn't get involved in stuff like that. They'll just be a lot of grief and heartache for no profit to yourself'
I explained that I was concerned about these issues because they offended me and offended my now curiously misplaced sense of what Britishness is (was?) supposed to be all about
And then I changed the subject.
My friend's reaction was interesting because by no stretch of the imagination could he be considered a 'Conspiracy Theorist' and he pretty much buys into the current War on Islamic Terror paradigm. However, in spite of that he, and people like him, still acknowledge the possible existence of shady bastards engaged in shady activities who could really fuck up your day if you piss them off enough
He might also be talking sense
And on the subject of the Irish–Islamofascist connection, another Irish chum sent me this snippet of news from the Emerald Republic…
"I see that they found 23 people stuck to the walls and ceiling of Dublin Airport yesterday. Irish Muslim extremists are believed to be responsible, having set off the world's first 'No-Nails'-bomb...."
And whilst I'm engaged in some serious consideration about a future content change of this blog to exclusively include pictures of daisies and puppy dogs and nothing else, a passing observation on the 21/7 trial verdict earlier this week...
One of the 'bombers' Ramzi Mohammed tried to do whatever he was doing in my local tube station and whilst I wasn't in the Oval tube at the time I'm acutely conscious that I or someone I cared for could easily have been.
It was the fact that an alleged bomber tried to blow up (sic.) my local tube station then legged it down the bottom of the street where I live, combined with the execution of Jean Charles de Menezes down the road the next day, that really brought home the fact that this War on Terror stuff was taking place literally all around me. It is not an abstract, far away concern and I don't criticise and deride the 'Official Narrative' of what is going on lightly.
One aspect of the conviction of the 21/7 'bombers' that has not been discussed or explained is that the bombers were convicted of 'conspiracy to murder'. Charges of 'conspiracy to cause explosions likely to endanger life' were dropped at the end of the trial
That needs explaining. As does the fact that the jury took a week to convict them
But don't expect any fucking news channel to shed any light on what significance there is, if any, of the explosions charges being dropped
What they've done instead is to bang out headlines that unashamedly claim that the four were convicted as bombers
edit: just to be clear on this point, and as re-iterated by a couple of comments to this post...
NONE of the mainstream media are making this clear
now, as an experiment with dissonance in action, why not try and explain that to a non Conspiraloon™ and see how they react
And yet again, for the umpteenth time, we now find out that the security forces were all over these supposed 'clean skin' terrorists long before they launched their attack
And yet again, for the umpteenth time, the 'cock-up not a conspiracy' card is being played and instead of serious questions being asked about what 'our' security forces are playing at we're being told that it's a capacity issue that requires application of even more resources and even stricter laws and everyone with doubts should shut the fuck up
And whilst on the subject of strange goings-on at the Oval, I passed this thing sitting on the street opposite the station the other day
It was attached to a cable that snaked its way through a church yard and into a white van marked SISLink parked on a side street. SISLink's website indicates that the company is involved in outside broadcasts. Fine, I doubt if there is anything super sinister about that.
What did surprise me was how little interest passers-by were showing in the thing. People have become so accustomed to and blasé about crap like this sprouting up everywhere that it now barely registers. In fact, people only started paying attention to it once I started to photograph it - man with camera unusual, weird directional microwave thingy on tripod not unusual
That's not good

Problem with DNase treatment of RNA for RT-PCR - (Feb/15/2005 )
Hello all,
In my RT-PCR experiments, i am getting two bright bands consistently. I ran a control with-out RTransciptase and I got only one band. So i was happy thinking that this band in -RT control was from DNA contamination and the other one (which lies at the same region where i want it to be) is the 'correct' one. To get rid of that contaminated band, i treated the sample with DNAse, but now i am not seeing any band at all. Both the bands have disappeared. Did anyone face similar problem? Is there a chance that DNAse can actually destroy all the RNA in the sample? What could be the most possible reason for this observation? Any help is really appreciated.
thanks in advance.
Its probably contaminating DNA that is your problem. I will recommend the use of a new ds DNA specific DNAse (Shrimp DNase) that you can buy from USB in the states or ABgene in the UK. It does not cleave RNA or ssDNA and can be added to your RT mix. It will remove contaminating DNA during the RT step and can be easely be inactivated before PCR.
Good luck!

Tips for Choosing a Readable Type
You've worked hard to create just the right look for your client's newsletter. But will your masterpiece also be easy to read? Balancing beauty with readability can be challenging. Here are some areas to keep in mind as you choose a typeface and layout the text on your next project:
X-height. X-height refers to the size of a lowercase x in a given typeface. The larger the x-height, the denser the type will appear on the page, and the less readable it will tend to be.
Tracking. Tracking refers to character spacing. Any variation from normal tracking (narrowed or expanded text) can have an adverse effect on readability.
Serif vs. sans serif. Research shows that serif fonts are more readable than sans serif fonts for large areas of body text. This may be due to the serifs' ability to lead the eye from one character to the next. On the other hand, typefaces with serifs that are too pronounced can have the opposite effect. Also, sans serif fonts tend to be more readable than their serif counterparts in smaller point sizes, such as those used for footnotes or fine print.
Line length. Shorter lines of text tend to be more readable than longer lines. However, lines that are too short may also prove difficult to read. Experts suggest setting line length at approximately 39 characters, or two times your point size, converted into picas (e.g. 2 x 10pt =20 picas or 3 1/3 inches). Experiment with both of these options to see which works better for you.
Leading. The leading, or space between each line of text, can also affect readability. In general, leading that is 2-3 points larger than the typeface enhances readability. Leading that is too much larger or smaller than that, however, can make the type more difficult to read.
Widows and orphans. Widows occur when the final line of a paragraph contains just a single word. Orphans are paragraphs that carry over just a single line from one column to the next. Both are visually distracting, unattractive, and reduce the readability of a page.
Point size. Body text is generally set at 9-12 points in size. This can vary, however, depending on the typeface and purpose involved, so make adjustments accordingly.

A few mates had been nagging me to actually run a deliberate nude bushwalk, rather than just the occasional impromptu stuff that occurs. We managed to chose one of the best days of the year last week, with warm air, crisp blue skies, sunshine streaming down and best of all the stunning Grose Valley gorge all to ourselves!
You can read my full trip report, and admire plenty of photos, below. FYI, there are bare bums in the pics, but no dangly bits!

faith & spirituality
For many people, the cold tenets of science are inadequate for describing the fire of life. With faith, there are things unseen but undeniably sensed, unquantifiable but wholly substantial, unprovable but entirely real. Faith can be a light that shines in the darkness and illuminates the universe as it really exists, under the artificial constructs placed upon it by our brains. Where science is silent, spirituality makes a joyful noise. There are many Faiths. The Rainbow Family of the Tribes is one place where many faiths can be found living harmoniously together. For more information about the history of Rainbow Gatherings, and about the Rainbow Way... striving for a more harmonious way of autonomously working toward healing ourselves & the planet... go to: www.welcomehome.org To find out where gatherings are in the Pacific Northwest and portland/eugene monthly potlucks, call the Northwest Lightline at: (503) 727-2498.

Stu Sugarman ...a eulogy
From the open publishing newswire: I woke up this morning to find out that an old friend of mine, an earth warrior, an activist attorney, and a truly gentle soul... has died. This man saved many of our asses in the Pacific NW during the various waves of repression and Green Scare machinations that swept through Cascadia over the past 2 decades, and I will not forget him. I don't think any of us will. We thought he would be there forever. None of us was prepared for this, it was so sudden and unexpected.
Read this full eulogy by Cat Jones on her blog here:
Stu passed away in his home Monday of apparent diabetes-related causes. He was 52 years old.
A memorial service has been scheduled for 6 p.m. Thursday, March 31 at Laurelhurst Park, 3756 S.E. Oak St., in Portland. A group will gather north of the pond, at picnic area" E."
From the open publishing newswire: A Christian denomination founded on the right to own slaves steals property from a historically African-American church in North Portland; then sells it to a predominantly Caucasian church in Gresham for a $200,000 profit. All while leaving the founding pastor's elderly wife penniless.
Why are we hearing about this almost a decade later from an outfit in New Jersey and not our local press\?
PORTLAND, OREGON � There are ways to sell a church property legally, procedures dictated by state law and church bylaws. Typically, they require a formal vote by the congregation. [...]
Video Report Back: Religious Leaders Speak Out Against Obama's 2012 Budget
From the open publishing newswire: February 16, 2011 Portland Oregon Press Conference by religious community opposing outrageous bloated military budget and inhumane cuts in social service in the recent Obama Budget for 2012.
Religious Leaders Speak Out Against Obama's 012 Budget
Clergy from various Portland denominations each spoke briefly, condemning the U.S. misplaced priorities and blatant disregard for human life worldwide.
First to speak was Rev. Bill sinkford, Senior Minister of First Unitarian Church; The Reverend was followed by Rabbi Joseph Wolf of the Havurah Shalom Community; Mark Knudson, Senior Minister of Augustana Lutheran Church; and Lynne Smouse-Lopez, Senior Pastor at Ainsworth United Church of Christ.
Fundamental to the Press Conference was a long graphic demonstrating the values inherent in the 2012 budget. Taking up over half of the graphic was a large red area portraying the 59% of the budget reserved for military spending.
At the other end of the graphic were the various other areas of expenditures provided for in the budget: 6% for Health and Human Service; 6% for Transportation; 4% to the States; 4% for Education; 4% for Other Programs; 3% for Department of Homeland Security; 3% for Housing and Urban Development; 2% for Justice; 2% for Agriculture; 1% for NASA; 1% for Energy(excludes nuclear weapons program); 1% Labor; 1% Treasury; 1% Interior; 1%Interior; 1% Environmental Protection Agency; 1% Commerce.
The opinion came through loud and clear from all who spoke that the U.S. is not fulfilling it's democratic obligations to it's citizens and also is a force encouraging and fostering violence world wide.
Police Brutality: Passover/ Easter celebrate transcending oppressionfear for liberation
From the open publishing newswire: One individual's right thinking and revolutionary morally courageous action can profoundly change events and has changed history.
Misfit Moses with the speech impediment, a fugitive wanted for murder, member of a slave colony, a lonely shepherd, almost murdered in infancy, distrusted or resented by all sides, boldly faced his greatest fears and demanded freedom to worship his God, and after a lot of plagues, finally, the thousands of intimidated, self-centered slaves moved in mass from all they found comfortable and familiar for the scary and hard unknown wilderness. After forty years the survivors outgrew the slave mentality. The most powerful military empire, wealthiest global trading center, most advanced technology, most sophisticated culture and enforced religion was not strong enough to defeat this one man and those he led to freedom.
From the open publishing newswire: Conservative Portland Catholic Archbishop John Vlazny recently attended the right-to-life protest at Pionner Square against women's rights with 7,000 other conservatives. Since then, he gave a series of talks at Beaverton's Lady of Peace retreat center on job openings in the Catholic Church and conservative Catholic values.
Summer Solstice - Energy Circle for Tre Arrow
From the open publishing newswire: WHAT: Summer Solstice-Energy Circle for Tre
WHEN: June 20th, Friday @ 5:30PM
WHERE: Top of Mt.Tabor
WHY: This has been a really long road for Tre and he could really use our love, light, and healing energy. Tre is aware this is happening and he will be receiving the energy at 5:45pm. If you cannot make it to Mt. Tabor, please still send him positive energy at 5:45pm wherever you are.
Summer officially begins wuth the Summer Solstice on Friday, June 20 at 4:59pm. Sol + stice derives from a combination of Latin words meaning "sun" + "to stand still." As the days lengthen, the sun rises higher and higher until it seems to stand still in the sky.
As a major celestial event, the Summer Solstice results in the longest day and the shortest night of the year. The Northern Hemisphere celebrates in June, but the people on the Southern half of the earth have their longest summer day in December.
The Summer Solstice represent a new beginning. It is time for purification, and renewal of the self. A time to release the sadness, fears, and pains from your life. It is time to celebrate the joy, warmth, and laughter of summer. A time for purification and renewed energy. A time to celebrate the fullness of life and the power of the sun. A time to heal mother earth, heal yourself, and heal Tre.
~Blessed Be~
She leads me
From the open publishing newswire: She leads me
The madness surrounds me.
Wild, crazed, violent
madmen, berserkers
of greed, power
and blood lust continue
their antediluvian creed
of slash, loot, rape and burn.
Taking my hand, She
leads carefully through
forgotten forests into the
highlands of an unfamiliar youth.
Here, underneath the gentle
music of dragonfly wings
lives the cool still waters of remembrance.
NOTE: Be sure to read the rest of this poem in the "Read More" link.
Field of Cows
From the open publishing newswire: I pass by this field every day on my way home. It's not important which one it is, it could be any field. It's a rolling, green pasture, sprinkled with spring flowers and bursting with rich, green grasses. There's a pear tree out in the middle, and a stream running through it. On one side, it runs along the river, and often geese gaggle along the shore, haughtily daring anyone to come too close. This time of the year, there are often eagles sitting in the trees near the shore. This is a beautiful and blessed place. But the most conspicuous residents are the cows.
Large, quiet, soft-eyed cows graze the grasses, blink somberly at the geese, and gaze into the fragrant, green light of spring. Heady, heavy thoughts are obviously on their minds. Joyful, spindly-legged calves trot along beside them now, their noses wet with the dew of new life, their eyes full of the wonder of a new day. I love these cows. The mothers and their babies gather in soft communion in the shade of the pear tree, and down along the coolness of the shallow stream. Wisdom and strength reverberate through the bones and hides of these ancient mothers' sturdy bodies, while joy and faith and exuberance ring out from their leaping, wide-eyed progeny.
On the anniversary of my mothers suicide
From the open publishing newswire: Horrible title to have to read today of all days, I know. I've debated long and hard about whether to share this, believe me...
Today is Mother' Day. It is also 15 years to the day of my mother's suicide. I do not offer this bit of information to prompt sympathy or to wrap a cloak of sadness over anyone's day. I do offer this because I have learned first hand how important it is to cherish and embrace the precious gift of time. I also offer this as evidence that it is possible to overcome the most unexpected tragedies and go on to live a life of balance and intent. And maybe I also offer this because there are a couple of people in my life who I love dearly who are struggling to understand why horrible shit has embraced them in the darkest of clouds...
Sea Lions on the River
From the open publishing newswire: Tomorrow is Easter, a day to celebrate the turning of the wheel, from decay to resurrection, from winter to spring, from death to life. And in a fitting salute to this ancient Pagan (yes! Pagan!) holiday, the runs are here: The salmon are pulsing through the river again. Life comes surging into the world again with the spring. And with it come the sea lions, gliding through the water with the salmon, as they have for thousands of years.
I can hear them from my window here, barking and trumpeting from the waters as they lounge along the shore, as they gleefully swirl through the water, as they break the grey-green, splashing surface with their whiskered, dog-like faces. I counted four of them this morning, as I walked along the shore. This is good. This is how the spring goddess comes dancing back into the world: She comes with bright blossoms and soft petals and perfumed air. She comes with singing birds and unfurling fronds and awakening earth. And, here in Cascadia, she comes with the salmon and the sea lion.
The Center of the Cancer
From the open publishing newswire: I often wonder why any nation would choose war over peace, seems like choosing between chaos and being more human than our parents. It would seem that war would be the exception. The fact that we are at war more often that at peace would indicate a serious flaw in our humanism or that which make us human...
You feed the poor, help the sick, visit the jails and smile at a person who asks you for help. When you help someone ask only that they repay you by helping the next person who may ask them for help. I always try to remember to say that when someone says thanks to me for some favor---it could cause a small revolution...
The Changing Season: Now, It's Autumn
From the open publishing newswire: The autumn equinox turned the skies nearly a month ago now. Even then, the dry, yellowed grasses waved impassively in the still, warm air. The leaves, while glowing here and there with color, tended to crackle and fall from branches before lighting up the woods. The parched earth gave no indication that the summer had ended. Even the hazy yellow light hung in the air, rather than the crisp, golden light of fall. And we waited, and the world lazily waited. But now, it's autumn.
The first rains came trickling down some days back, and the slugs awakened. The first few wooly bears grubbed across the sun-warmed roadways shortly after. The crickets began chirping in the meadows, and the buzzing, droning, flying things of summer began seeking shelter. Ladybugs and boxelders began appearing on my windows yesterday, searching for the ways inside that all these old houses graciously provide for them. They will climb inside and gather together in great knots, somewhere out of sight, until the spring comes around again. And for now, they will sleep awhile.
An Extraordinary Day in Olympia
From the open publishing newswire: My preferred way of being in the world is optimistic but I have really been struggling these past few weeks. It becomes too easy to see the glass half empty and its contents pain and suffering. The world events easily challenge my basic sense of human decency. But yesterday was such an extraordinary day in Olympia that I am once again seeing the glass filled with light and hope. I headed downtown. As I crossed over the 5th avenue bridge, the salmon were running and the seals were there too.
I attended the weekly peace vigil at Sylvester Park at noon. Normally, there is a just a handful of people. Yesterday, the Japanese Peace Delegation joined, bringing their truth about the horrors of war to Olympia. Buddhists who traveled down from Seattle, whose drumming and chanting called for peace in the world, joined us.
Early that evening, the Citizen's Movement to Impeach Bush/Cheney held an informational meeting on How to Impeach a President. About twenty people came to the library to learn more. People are angry at what is happening to this country and the abuses of the President and Vice President.

That's because the late night host got to rap with Justin Timberlake two nights ago and then last night, he got to grill Ryan Gosling about getting nekkid. Jealous.
We'd write more, but we wouldn't want to make you wait any longer to feast your eyes on JT and Ryan...
Here are Jimmy and Justin doing "The History of Rap, Part 2". (We especially love the "Dougie" lesson.)
And here is Jimmy talking to Ryan, who recently stripped down in a Turkish bath and wasn't afraid to share the juicy (and hilariously gross details). Yes, that is his dog next to him. And yes, said dog does have a mohawk. Apparently, Ryan gave him the cut do help the pooch beat summer heat. [Knees go weak.]
Clearly the most pressing question here is: Who would you rather—Justin or Ryan?

The turkey is the largest and, if not most delicate, at least the most flavorful of our domestic birds. It also enjoys the unique advantage of attracting to it every class of society. When the vine tenders and the plowmen of our countryside want to treat themselves to a party on a long winter night, what do you see roasting over the bright kitchen fire where the table is laid? A turkey. When the practical mechanic or the artisan brings a few of his friends together to celebrate some relaxation all the sweeter for being so rare, what is the traditional main dish of the dinner he offers? A turkey stuffed with sausages or with Lyons chestnuts. -- from M.F.K. Fischer's (marvelous) translation of La Physiologie du Gout.
Brillat-Savarin experienced the original exoticism of the turkey while in exile in America, when his New York friends whisked him away to a hunting property in Connecticut and he hunted wild turkeys. He successfully shot one and recounted with great, wry pride, "this deed... [that] I shall recount all the more eagerly since I myself am its hero." But before the shooting and the eating, deep in the hunting woods, our hero engages in a reverie worth the telling on this day when just maybe we might get caught in daydreams, cease our toils, and meander as well as feast and laugh and toast and cheer.
I found myself for the first time in my life in virgin forest, where the sound of the axe had never been heard. I wandered through it with delight, observing the benefits and the ravages of time, which both creates and destroys, and I amused myself by following every period in the life of an oak tree, from the moment it emerges two-leaves from the earth until that one when nothing is left of it but a long black smudge which is its heart's dust.
This year's Thanksgiving gets to observe the benefits of time, with us less sad that my dad is not here, and, in great wonder and joy, hosting both deeply happy newlyweds and a mom made new by a wondrous adoption. We will be grateful and remember and hope. And read Art Buchwald's "Le Grande Thanksgiving" column, and add the new favorite McSweeney's "Public School Education Thanksgiving." And we will feast.

The Waxman-Markey global warming bill is far and away the most worrisome environmental measure currently working its way through Congress, but it is certainly not the only cause for concern. Despite the all-encompassing global warming debate (and perhaps because of it) other problematic green measures are also being rushed through the House or Senate with minimal discussion. One such measure is S. 787, the Clean Water Restoration Act (CWRA). Like Waxman-Markey, the CWRA would do much more harm than good, especially for farmers, ranchers, developers, energy producers, and other property owners. The Senate's Environment and Public Works Committee has hurriedly scheduled June 18th as the day to both debate and vote on the bill.
For years, the 1972 Clean Water Act has been misused in the name of protecting Americas waters and wetlands. The statute's original limitation that its key provisions only apply to navigable waters was largely ignored. Instead, the law was broadly applied to a wide variety of circumstances, including remote and inconsequential drainage ditches or temporary puddles and even to completely dry land.
The statute's complex and costly provisions interfered with the economic use of the lands it encompassed, including farming and ranching operations, construction of housing and other buildings, and domestic oil and gas production.
Fortunately, two Supreme Court decisions, Solid Waste Agency of Northern Cook County v. United States in 2001, and Rapanos v. United States in 2006 partially reined in these excesses.
Now, the CWRA seeks to overturn these Supreme Court decisions and make the statute more expansive than ever. In fact, it would turn the Clean Water Act into what some analysts believe to be the most dangerous federal intrusion on private property rights in existence. First, it seeks to remove the limitation that the statute only apply to navigable waters and apply it to all waters of the United States. Then it seeks to broadly define such waters as not just "all waters subject to the ebb and flow of the tide, the territorial seas, and all interstate and intrastate waters and their tributaries, including lakes, rivers, streams (including intermittent streams)," but also "mudflats, sandflats, wetlands, sloughs, prairie potholes, wet meadows, playa lakes, natural ponds…." Yes, prairie potholes. Note also that the CWRA makes clear that intrastate as well as interstate waters are the purview of the feds.
The CWRA is an invitation for federal regulators (or environmental organizations filing lawsuits) to shut down any use of land that they don't like so long as there is a little water somewhere in the vicinity. If the past is any guide, this law will be used to stop a tremendous amount of economic activity. Though not as far-reaching as Waxman Markey, the CWRA would be a serious blow to the rural economy, not to mention private property rights.

The following list describe resizing problems (and not only) for all tested plasmoids.
If not already specified, some guidelines should be taken to archieve an uniform behaviour. At least developers should be careful to the following points:
The calendar plasmoid could behave in the same way in the Desktop. Currently, it has a minimum size in which the table of the days aren't displayed. There are two solutions:
The mouse doesn't change when it's over link. If the word doesn't exist in the dictionary, no message is displayed.
Why this plasmoid is inserted in the panel if you enlarged it whereas for example calculator or character selector doesn't (they ever display the icon when inserted in a panel)?
In higher horizontal panel, for example:
"KMail account is changed"
should became:
"KMail account is changed"
(three lines) A different solution is to keep the plasmoid as icon on the panel and display the message in a popup.
The plasmoid has a maximum size. When you click on the download arrow, a new popup appears. It is not attached to the plasmoid so if it's moved the new popup doesn't move too. The text in the new popup is not centered on the "white" area. I've selected the text so we can read it on the gray background:
I can't fully test this plasmoid because I haven't an account.
How icons are ordered in the system tray?
If the trash can't be emptied (i.e. files without permissions), the plasmoid should display a message like in dolphin.

GREENSBORO � Standing a couple feet from an out-of-bounds marker, hitting a 7-iron off pine straw and under tree branches to 6 feet seems the perfect way to earn your first PGA Tour victory.
At least, that�s the way Patrick Reed put his stamp on the Wyndham Championship on Sunday at Sedgefield Country Club.
�It was the best shot of my life, that�s for sure,� said Reed, who buried the putt for a birdie to beat Jordan Spieth on the second playoff hole.
To hit the miraculous shot � which will undoubtedly be played on highlight clips for the rest of Reed�s career, no matter where it leads � the 23-year-old had to pull off a shot that has given him trouble all season.
The draw-preferring Reed had to hit the dreaded straight ball, from a lie severely above his stance.
�It basically felt like I was back playing T-ball,� Reed said. �The problem was the tree that I had to go under, the tree trunk was right there. I really had to hit the ball dead straight and (it) couldn�t draw.
�I had to step up and hit the shot that I�ve been fighting all year. � I don�t see straight lines. I see curves.�
On that note, perhaps it was fitting that Reed�s birdie putt � coming after Spieth missed a 10-foot birdie putt � bent from the right side of the cup to the left, dying into the hole and sending Reed into celebration.
Once Reed had fist-pumped, he reacted by kissing, hugging and picking up his wife / caddie Justine Reed, who was still holding the flagstick.
�There�s not enough to say about her,� Reed said of his wife. �I�m just so lucky to have somebody like that and she�s such a fierce competitor.�
The first playoff hole had enough excitement on its own, when Spieth completed an up-and-down from about 140 yards when he drained a putt of roughly 40 feet. Reed missed a 7-foot birdie putt that sent the playoff to No. 10.
If that wasn�t enough drama for a player grinding for his first tour victory, the initial signal that his tee shot on No. 10 was out of bounds created doubt.
�After I missed that putt (on the first playoff hole) I was like �Whatever,� � Reed said. �When they signaled out of bounds, my heart just sank. I was about to burst right there.�
Part of the reason for that was because Reed was in position to win at 15-under, but a three-putt bogey at the par-3 16th came moments after Spieth poured in a birdie at No. 17 � putting Reed, Spieth and John Huh in a three-way tie at 14-under.
Reed�s final round started just as it did Saturday, with four straight pars. While a bogey temporarily threw Reed off his rhythm in the third round, a two-putt birdie kick started a stretch that saw him birdie four of five holes.
The most impressive of those birdies came at the par-3 seventh when Reed dropped in a 43-foot putt, celebrating with a small fist pump.
Spieth�s day began with a bogey after he started one back of a lead shared by Reed and Huh. But the rookie recovered to go bogey-free for the rest of the day and poured in six birdies for a 65 to make the playoff.
�It started the same way as the John Deere, bogey on the first,� said Spieth, referencing his victory last month. �I shot 1-under on the front nine and (that was) a little disappointing because a couple of holes were so easy.�
The final round started early � for the second straight day � and endured a delay of about an hour after overnight rains.
By the thrilling finish, those barely stood as inconveniences.
An emotional Reed reminisced during the trophy presentation on the 18th green that the 2011 Wyndham Championship was the first PGA tournament for which he made the cut, finishing at 2-under in a tie for 66th.
�I�ll be back every year,� Reed told the assembled crowd.
n TAP INS �: No players moved into or out of the top 125 for FedEx Cup rankings. � Former Wake Forest standout Webb Simpson shot 63 to finish at 9-under, which was tied for 11th. � The only rounds lower than Simpson�s were by David Toms and Matt Jones, who each shot 62. � By missing the cut, North Carolina alum Davis Love III won�t finish in the top 100 of the money list, breaking his streak of 27 consecutive years inside that mark. � Huh bogeyed the last two holes to finish in a tie for third. � Reed�s victory means the former Augusta State player has qualified for the Masters, an aspect that appealed greatly to the Dallas native. �I have butterflies thinking about it,� he said.

I enjoyed reading this book. I actually had to take a moment after reading it to take it all in. It's not like anything written and I expected it to have similarities to her father's novels. This book stands out on it's own! The only reason I gave it 4 & 1/2 stars is that the book does have a lack of diversity in the characters. Dekker lovingly describes the way Carrington, Remko and the main Authority families look (all are white) but just comments on the "darkness" of another character's skin.
I loved this book! I feel like the market has been saturated with dystopian books focusing on protagonists who get chosen for something -- Dekker changes things up with a protagonist who doesn't get chosen. Dekker does a great job at creating a familiar-but-different world, relatable characters, and an intriguing plot with plenty of twists and turns. I'm looking forward to reading the other books in the series.
Bleh! Start with the mashup of biblical and prime-time soap opera names, add a predictable plot and shallow characters, and then top it off with a saccharine-poisoning dusted with the author's own religious mythology.
The world Dekker's built is so flimsy and yet so familiar--maybe because it's a regurgitation of other dystopian novels.
Try the first Hunger Games book, Daughter of Smoke & Bone trilogy, The Roar, Not a Drop to Drink, 7th Sigma, Sheri Tepper's Plague of Angels series, or The Unwanteds for better world-building, strong women characters, and stories about where one belongs.
If you liked The Selection Series by Kiera Cass, you will enjoy The Choosing. A highly enjoyable read that contains an important message of how each person is unique and beautiful.
A wonderful debut! Rachelle Dekker shows her prowess in the writing field as she crafts a gorgeous story about finding your true self and your worth, not from how you are defined by society or your family or even yourself, but how your Father sees you.
The beauty in the lesson here-discovering who you really are and that you are valued-is portrayed powerfully and masterfully here. I felt with Carrington and experienced alongside her the amazing power and love of Aaron's words, the words that told her who she really was in her Father's eyes, the One who made her and chose her and called her His. Simply gorgeous, emotional, well-done.
The plot itself was interesting. Although at first I found the story only intriguing and not very "pulling", I was soon immersed in this dystopian world, gobbling everything up, especially near the end. The main characters-specifically Carrington, Remko, and Isaac, who all get POVs-each brought something different to the story, giving the novel depth and substance. I liked where Rachelle went with the villain, and the journey throughout the story was well-crafted and well-written.
All in all, a great book. The only things that I have to pick with the author was the fact that the romantic subplot, though cute, felt a bit one-dimensional and cliche. Also, at the end of the book, nothing is really discussed about the fate of Carrington's bff, which seems like a loose end/plot hole the author never really noticed. However, besides these, I'd say the book was without too many inconsistencies or hiccups.
Apparently this is a series(!!), so I'll definitely be on the lookout for the next book, The Calling (which is coming out next year, I believe). And I'll be looking forward to more books by Rachelle Dekker. :)
In a similar dystopian spirit of "The Hunger Games", "Divergent", "The Selection", "Matched" and other such popular titles, Rachelle Dekker's debut novel is outstanding. Her style might be familiar to those who have read her father, Ted Dekker's works - but geared to a more teenage audience. There is a serial killer character and a few scary moments that might not be good for younger readers, but overall an excellent excellent read.
QuotesAdd a Quote
(Aaron) The Authority has taught you to believe that the color of your garment gives you your place. They say that in knowing your place you have peace, that easy lines can be drawn, that you can discover God's purpose for your life. But I say that the Father tells you a different story. A story free of labels and false identity.
(Aaron) Life is a journey of remembering and forgetting one's true self. But don't fret and be filled with fear if you forget, because only after forgetting can we remember. Yes? And each time you recall who you are, your vision strengthens.
(Aaron) The biggest struggle you will ever face is to ignore the lies that seem so familiar.
(Carrington) They feel like the truth.
(Aaron) The truth is beautiful, like you. The truth is you have been made perfect and are wholly loved. Chosen simply because you breathe, because you exist, because of who created you. I know this world has led you to believe that your worth is measurable. Life has always told that lie-that you have to work for love or change to be accepted. But the truth is different. Truth has existed since before time began, and it's message is that because you were born, because you grow, because you take steps, because you laugh, you are loved and worth the greatest sacrifice.

The Membership Relations Committee is happy to showcase some ArkGeo Geocachers through the "Geocacher Profile". The committee thought Jackie Hefley aka Razorback01 should be the next cachers to be in the spotlight.
What is your geocaching name? Razorback01
How did you choose your handle? As you can tell, Im a Razorback fan since birth
How long have you been geocaching? Since August 2008
How did you find your first geocache, and which one was it? Well, when I first found out about geocaching, I did not have a gps, so I had to go out and purchase one, a Nuvi brand that was made basically for street use only but I used it caching for my first 1,000 finds. First cache I tried out was GC199JO Walnut Grove Cemetery on 8/19/08 by Ron White that was about 3 miles from the house. I thought picking out a cemetery cache would be creepy and a fun thing to do. Little did I know I would get hooked after that.
Who usually goes with you when you go caching? 99% of the time by myself. Other 1% is when I get the wife to go help me find the tough ones I cant put my hands on. She is definitely better at this than I am.
How long will you work on puzzle caches before you give up? Ill pick out a few from time to time. Ill spend a lot of time on some until I figure it out or make a phone call to a fellow cacher.
What town/areas have you most enjoyed caching in? Love to cache in a cemetery or on a trail out in the woods.
Do you do paperless caching? Not yet
What kind of geocaching rig do you use? Garmin 60 CSx
Why would you recommend anyone else to take up geocaching? To meet some of the friendliness people you will find and also to enjoy this world that God has given us.
Where are you originally from? Stuttgart, Arkansas
In what states have you geocached? Alaska, Arkansas, Florida, Kentucky, Louisiana, Massachusetts, Mississippi, Missouri, South Carolina, Texas, Utah, and Washington.
What was your first event ever attended? GC1N9D3 ArkGeo 2009 Annual Meeting
How many caches have you found? 5,874
Which type of cache container do you prefer over the rest? Anything larger than a micro
What was the most famous cache that you have found? GC2ODQV near Fenway Park in Boston.
Do you use disposable batteries or rechargeable batteries? Rechargeable
Do you enjoy hiding or finding more as your part of the hobby? Finding
Do you have a personal goal in mind when you make a hide? To direct a cacher to areas that normally they would not know about.
What is your favorite type of cache hide? It is where the cache is hid out in nature down a winding trail in the woods.
Out of all your hides, what are your personal favorites that you take pride in? GC226QJ, GC226R8, GC226RB, & GC22CM6. They are my WLR Ammo Alley series that are all ammo cans.
What do you think the proper hide to find ratio should be to keep the sport fresh? 2 hides for every 100 found.
How did you end up getting into this wacky hobby? Wife was reading the newspaper and spotted an article about geocaching in our state parks. Looked interesting to me.
Whats your favorite geocache? It would have to be the first one in Walnut Grove Cemetery placed by Ron White. After I made the find, I said this is like Indiana Jones movies-finding hidden treasures. Been hooked ever since.
If money was no object, where would you like to go geocaching? All over the world.
Do you like geocaching by yourself or in a group? Dont want to get in trouble but I have more fun by myself. Reason being, when Im with a group someone will always find the cache before I do. Guess I have a lot of kid still left in me.
How many first to finds do you have? Somewhere close to 50
Are you a first to find person who is always set on go and if so, how many miles out do you have your settings on to get notifications? My setting is on 20 miles and wife loves to find them after work at night or on weekends.
Do you have any other hobbies besides geocaching? Sports, swimming, and travel.

Sharon Osbourne and her son Jack have been honored in Los Angeles for their work to raise awareness about multiple sclerosis.
The reality TV stars were presented with a joint Medal of Hope award by Jack's sister Kelly Osbourne at the 20th annual Race to Erase MS gala on Friday.
Jack Osbourne, 27, announced he had been diagnosed with the neurological condition last summer, and he and his family have been using their fame to accelerate the campaign to find a cure for the disease ever since.
Speaking before the event, rock matriarch Sharon admitted she has been overwhelmed by the outpouring of love and support from her friends and relatives after going public with her son's health crisis.
She said, "We feel totally spoilt by our friends and family and everybody has been amazing with us. At times like this you realise how lucky you are to be surrounded by so many friends."
And Jack was full of praise for the strength his mom has shown in the months since his diagnosis.
He added, "If anyone is deserving it's her because she's been more out front about this than anyone. She's been so supportive – it's nice that it's a family affair."
Jack's wife, Lisa Stelly, also attended the bash, while other guests included singers Rod Stewart, Melanie Brown and LaToya Jackson, who were treated to performances by Sir Elton John and R&B star Taio Cruz.

The Okaloosa County School Board voted 4-1 Monday to approve spending more than $500,000 to keep school resource officers in every elementary school.
The Okaloosa County School Board voted 4-1 Monday to approve spending more than $500,000 to keep school resource officers in every elementary school.
School board member Melissa Thrush opposed the measure, citing a lack of funding, after a discussion that was at times heated and emotional.
At the end of December, Sheriff Larry Ashley decided to shift 26 deputies to cover Okaloosa�s elementary schools in response to the school shooting in Newtown, Conn., that killed 26 people earlier.
Ashley said the resource officers will cost $1.1 million through the end of the school year in June.
He has asked the school board to chip in half to cover the cost.
�I was very proud of our school board members,� Ashley said after the vote. �They understand that we had no response to an armed subject walking into our elementary schools prior to Jan. 7.�
He told the school board he had considered bringing a shotgun to the meeting to reiterate how important a resource officer can be in the case of an armed suspect.
The school board will now allocate $523,000 from reserves to fund the new officers. Another $42,000 will be covered by Radar Group, the private company that runs two charter schools in the district, said Rita Scallan, chief financial officer for the school district.
The County Commission has been asked to supply $265,000 and Ashley said he will provide $300,000 from forfeiture funds to make up the other half of the $1.1 million.
The County Commission is set to vote on the proposal Jan. 22.
To place officers in all the schools, Ashley had to pull them from several other units, including completely depleting his street crimes, beach and marine patrol and traffic enforcement units.
The funds would be used to hire new officers to fill those positions that were left vacant after the shift.
Ashley has said keeping the resource officers in schools will cost about $3.5 million a year.
School board members seemed to agree that Monday�s vote was a stop-gap for the rest of the year, but several had questions about how or whether the program should be funded in the future.
�The safety of our children is of course all of our concern,� said board member Dewey Destin. �As a temporary measure and at this amount of money, I will support it.�
He said at this time he does not support spending another $3.5 million to continue the program in the future. Instead, he hopes the board can come up with a less expensive way to provide safety.
Before the resource officer vote, school board members unanimously approved asking staff to evaluate school security and come up with recommendations to improve it.
Thrush said she wished the board would wait to vote on funding for the resource officers until all options had been evaluated.
She said she felt Ashley had made the decision to place the officers without asking the school board first.
At times, she choked back tears as she talked about keeping schoolchildren safe and imagining the kids who died at Sandy Hook Elementary, but her concern about approving the measure was funding, which should go toward education first, she said.
�We cannot adequately fund existing education needs in our schools,� she said, citing cuts in guidance counselors and staffing specialists. �Despite this insufficient funding, our schools are still very safe.�
She and chairman Rodney Walker exchanged some heated barbs. She asked him what had changed since the beginning of the year to make the funding such a priority.
�Twenty-something people were killed, that�s what�s different,� Walker said. �None of us wish that we were living in the atmosphere that we�re now living in, but it�s here.�
Board member Cindy Frakes said the board should ask parents what they are willing to give up to fund the officers.
�Somebody�s got to give up something and we�ve got to find out what they�re willing to give up,� she said.
County Commissioner Dave Parisot told the school board it should completely foot the bill for the resource officers and the county should not be asked to chip in any funds.
He also said he is not sure the resource officers will necessarily be effective to prevent school shootings.
�A deputy is a single individual that can only be in one place at one time,� he said.
After the vote, the tension of the meeting continued in the hallway between Ashley and Parisot.
Ashley, who told Parisot �our priority is elementary school kids and everything else is secondary,� expressed some frustration.
�You can run the sheriff�s office, you can run the tax collector�s office, you can run the school board meeting, you have got a better plan than everybody else, but I don�t have to listen to it,� he said. �You constantly undermine us.�
Parisot continued to argue that the school board should fund the school resource officers alone.
�I didn�t want to get into an argument in the hallway,� Parisot said to Ashley. �It�s when you turned on me, Larry, and said I�m taking it personally.�
