Bangalore: Bangalore civic authorities have sent a property tax notice to Wipro Ltd, asking the software major to pay dues of more than Rs 19 crore along with interest or face severe legal measures to recover them.
In response, the New York Stock Exchange-listed firm said it has paid the tax and has sought a meeting with Bruhat Bangalore Mahanagara Palike (BBMP) for a discussion on the issue and has a "strong enough" case in defence.
The dispute is with regard to its corporate headquarters and facilities at Doddakannelli village. The BBMP says the company has to pay tax as calculated at Rs 20 per sq ft.
Accordingly, it said in its January 11 notice that Rs 19,28,50,815 is due from 2008-09 to 2012-13 and Wipro is liable to pay the amount along with interest of two percent per month till date.
"Please make payment immediately otherwise we are forced to go for other severe measures available under law," the BBMP notice said.
Asked for the response at a press conference, where it announced the third quarter results today, Wipro's Chief Financial Officer Suresh Senapaty said the company has paid the tax and that the campus is "largely" a Special Economic Zone engaged in Information Technology and software services and has a "lot of people".
"BBMP has disputed that tax liability and imposed and demanded more money on that," Senapaty said, adding the Wipro has sought a meeting with the BBMP's Revenue department for a discussion to come to an "amicable conclusion".
He held the view that the company's position on the issue is "strong enough to defend either before the Department, the Government or the Judiciary as the case may be".
Senapaty said the issue would not have any significant impact on the profitability of the company.

PORTSMOUTH — Eleven days late and with a name inspired by the happiness of "celebration," newborn Felicia Andrade was the first baby of 2013 delivered at Portsmouth Regional Hospital and throughout the Seacoast and Tri-City regions.
On Wednesday, proud mother of the New Year baby, Mollie Andrade of Seabrook, shared her excitement with friends who were visiting the first-time mother as she held her daughter snug in her arms.
Born at 9:43 a.m. Tuesday, Jan 1, Felicia slept soundly during her first full day in the world bundled in her blanket and wearing a woven purple cap on her head for warmth.
Andrade said during her pregnancy she thought Felicia, whom after a day in the world was described as being "very calm and very alert" by her mother, would arrive early. Instead, her due date passed, the Christmas holiday passed and, though only hours into the first day of the year, even the start of 2013 had gone by.
She said she knew as the days went by that she wouldn't be going into labor on her own.
Her labor was induced Dec. 31 and at 3 a.m. the following day, "that's when the fun began," she said.
It wasn't until after Felicia was born and Andrade overheard her doctor exclaim "that was awesome" that she began to learn she likely had the first baby of the new year.
"I said, 'What? I still have a chance at that?'" she laughed. The excitement of having the first newborn in the area started to sink in.
Andrade said she and her husband, of Brazilian descent, chose the name "Felicia" after being inspired by the term "felicidade," the Brazilian word for "celebration" and one of the first she learned from her husband.
"I really wanted a name that wasn't common," she said.
She also said they wanted a baby all along, though they had planned on waiting a bit after getting married to conceive. Two weeks after their vows, Andrade found out she was pregnant.
"I'm excited because I wanted this for a very long time," she said.
Her visitors, friends she and her husband have met through camping, said Felicia wasn't just the first baby born this year, but was also "the most special."
And while mom was excited that her "little monkey" had claimed the title of "New Year baby 2013," she was most looking forward to bringing her 8 pound bundle of joy home.
"I'm so excited to bring her home and get her dressed," she said.

Eventually, we love sailing holidays very much! Well, it all started five years ago, when we decided to attend sailing courses. Once we got our certificates, we talked a bunch of friends into it and we chartered a yacht for our first sailing holidays that took place in the Ionian sea. We had a fantastic time on board; we all shared the excitement of this new experience and we really enjoyed ourselves. As beginners, we were not confident enough to go on our own, so we chartered a skippered yacht; a very nice, cozy and comfortable Lagoon 420 catamaran.
Conveniently, we started our journey from Lefkada. We had already arranged for the catamaran which was at the marina waiting for us and we begun our 2 weeks' journey there. We started our tour with Lefkada beloved beaches and in between we docked at several secluded bays where we enjoyed our private swimming. Our tour included Kephalonia and Paxos islands and several smaller islets and uninhabited islands such as Tragonisi, Kastos, Meganisi, Marmaronisi and Skorpios.
We had a wonderful time while sailing and we were pleasantly surprised with our discoveries; small hidden treasures in all the islands that we docked. We were very lucky because our skipper knew all the amazing beaches with the superb green blue water colors and he led us to all of them. We also trusted him for our food; we ate lovely local delicacies and wines in small, cozy and totally authentic places, far away from the massive tourist areas.
Each of the places we saw and visited remains still a delightful memory for all of us. We had an excellent time and we enjoyed dreamy holidays. Besides the places, we really had a lovely time on board. The catamaran was more than comfortable; four fully sized cabins each with its own shower and a spacious salon were fully equipped with all kinds of amenities and accessories that we might need. Well, thinking of all these right now just makes us even more anxious about this summer's sailing plans.

Toyo Open Country AT - Tire Test ReviewPosted in How To on October 1, 2007
While we're usually interested in tires that range in size from 35-44" in diameter, sometimes we need smaller sizes for our daily drivers, too. When it came time to replace the OE tires on our '07 GMC Yukon XL, we turned to Toyo. Our past experiences with the Toyo Open Country MT and AT tires are that they're reliable, true, and competent on both the pavement and in the dirt. We'd never run the smaller version of these tires, so were curious to see if they're as good as their larger siblings.
Since the Yukon is our family truckster, it sees everything from grocery getting to mild backcountry dirt roading. It also sees plenty of snow, ice, and road salt in the winter. We were especially anxious to procure a tire that works well in the snow. We weren't adding a suspension or lift to our Yukon, so went with four 265/70R17 Open Country AT tires that are the same size as the OE tires (about 31.5" diameter). The Toyos utilize DSOC II technology. Here's what Toyo says about that:"Dynamic Stability Optimized Contact (DSOC) theory technology was first utilized in 1988. Toyo introduced an updated version of this technology, called DSOC II, in 1995. The latest "T mode" technology is based on DSOC II, but is even more precise and evolutionary.
"T mode" captures every movement of the vehicle in order to analyze its data and then combine it with tire behavior analysis. It has enabled us to create more accurate and ideal couplings, which designates which type of tires fits best on particular vehicles. It is the result of carefully integrating driving simulation and tire simulation. "T mode" is truly an amazing technology that will revolutionize the tire industry in the 21st century.
Analysis software for "T mode" integrates one driving simulation and three tire simulation software modules. The driving simulation software, called ADAMS, incorporates parameters such as high-speed straight driving, lane-change, emergency avoidance, slalom, and braking performance simulations. The three tire simulation software modules are STACS II, CASPAN, and MSC. They incorporate performance data such as contact-surface, cornering-force, hydroplaning, vibration analysis, and rolling resistance simulation.
"T mode" combines all of this analysis data. This new technology enables us to evaluate tire-loads correctly, optimize tire-structure, tire-material and design tires that can be perfectly matched with a vehicle."
9PhotosView Slideshow
That techno-speak translates into this tire is designed well. We can tell you that the Open Country ATs are mud and snow rated all-terrains with two wide steel belts, open shoulder design, high turn-up polyester construction, spiral-wound cap ply, special wavy sipe arrangement, and a single-strand bead wire package. The wavy sipe arrangement is interesting to those of us who use our tires in snow country. The Open Country ATs are heavily siped and should work well in the white stuff.The Toyos are true to their legacy and took almost no weight to balance and had very little radial runout. This translates to a smooth, vibration- and wobble-free ride on the blacktop. We tried them on a dirt road and found traction to be much improved over the OE tires, with lateral grip being especially good, both on- and off-road. The tires are also quiet. We have no snow yet, so can't report on their snow performance, but will keep you updated.
On the little slickrock we drove over, the Toyos gripped much better than the OE tires did. We don't expect mud performance to be very good, but these tires aren't mud tires, are they?
We'll keep you updated on how the Open Country ATs perform. Other owners report good wear characteristics and our tires came with a 50,000-mile limited tread wear warranty, so we imagine we'll get some mileage out of these. Usually in our world, the better a tire wears the less they grip in the rocks. The Toyo Open Country ATs may be the exception to the rule. It looks like the smaller Toyo Open Country AT tires are as good as their larger siblings and continue Toyo's tradition of quality tires that really work.

Alphabetical list of historic personal nicknames and what they represent. This is a wiki list intended to be expanded by its users.
Genealogical Problem: We often find a nickname in an old source and need to know what formal name it represents. Or, we know the name, but wonder what possible nicknames and variant spellings might appear in an index or database.
Solution: Use a wiki list of historic nicknames. Add to it anytime you learn about additional historic nicknames.
Value. The list will continue to expand. It can be searched ([Ctrl] F) for the formal name in order to learn possible nicknames.
What Qualifies for the List
No unique nicknames. Some nicknames are random and unrelated to the regular name of their owner. For example, White Pine Sally as a substitute for Sophia may be a one-time nickname. Bugsy is a nickname in gangster movies, but has little to do with the owner's original name. Please do not add these kinds of random or unique nicknames to the following list.
Traditional nicknames only please. But many nicknames are traditionally used to replace a more formal name. For example, Molly may replace Margaret, Tom traditionally replaces Thomas, Polly for Mary, and Bill is commonly used for William. These traditional nicknames are exactly the kind you are invited to please add to the following list.
Rules: (1) Simply type the nickname on the left, an equals mark in the middle, and the formal name on the right, for example, Bill= William, (2) Please keep the nicknames in alphabetical order.
How to Add Another Nickname
Step 1. Use the index to find the letter of the alphabet where the new nickname fits.
Step 2. Click the [Edit] button on the right.
Step 3. Click the Wikitext button on the editing tool belt.
Step 4. Find the spot where the nickname will fit alphabetically.
Step 5. Insert (type) nickname = formal name
 (substitute the real nickname and formal name).
Step 6. Scroll to the bottom of the editing page, and type the nickname again in the Summary field.
Step 7. Click the Save page button.

text: 'Internet of Things' Coming Soon to a Field Near You March 7, 2014 06:20 AM Tweet Thanks to the 'Internet of Things,' your refrigerator will someday be able to tell your smartphone when you're out of milk. TAGS: Marketing, Overseas December 18, 2014 By Ben Potter AgWeb Social Media and Innovation Editor Email A current tech industry buzzword is the "Internet of Things." Basically, IoT imagines a world where everything is outfitted with sensors, which will modernize life in ways we are just beginning to understand today. Imagine, for example, that your refrigerator knows when you're running low on milk and eggs, and sends a grocery list to your smartphone. That's just one of many ways IoT is being imagined in the consumer world. But the IoT has big potential in farming, too. Its success hinges on sensors, whether embedded into tractors, implements or other machinery, or even placed directly into the ground. Brett Norman, CEO of AgSmarts, says the power of sensors will only grow over time. He and his colleagues are working on algorithms that allow AgSmarts' sensors to communicate with their controller installed on a center pivot. The network of sensors works collectively to report back environmental conditions in the field to the controller, which autonomously schedules irrigation events accordingly. This is just one example of how the IoT is making its way into agriculture, he says. The coming decade should witness many new ways to tap into customized weather and environmental data, he adds. Gigaom, which reports on new technologies, recently showcased how Kansas farmer Bob Dible is already using precision technology on his farm, and how that might evolve in the near future. "One day, we will monitor and grow the corn on a stalk-by-stalk basis," he predicts. Imagine a future where small autonomous robots could weave through each row of your field, sensing individual plant needs and communicating with each other through a mesh network (think of it as a "chat room for gadgets"). Don't write it off as sci-fi farming, either – the future is already closer than you think. "Because the cost of sensors and wireless communications is dropping so fast, we'll see a lot of new IoT ag applications coming, from water management to nutrient management to IP-enabled drones," Norman says.

Ask Peter: Woks
I recently read your answer to someone looking for a new set of pots, but the one thing you didn't mention was a wok. I am in desperate need of one as I like to stir-fry my vegetables and meats for many different types of meals. I have only owned two in the last 21 years, neither of which were very expensive, both had lids (which was very useful for steaming my chicken at the end) and both were non-stick. However, in the past few years I have been reading that you should not use non-stick on high heat (and you said that too). But cooking my chicken I find that the hotter the pan the better to seal the chicken and really make it tender. I would like to get a decent one but cannot afford to pay several hundred dollars (one was recommended to me in a shop in Auckland but it was close to $500 on sale). What would you use?
Thanks, Katherine
I love a good wok and I have no idea why anyone would buy a $500 wok unless it comes with a chef. I assume it'll be a multi-clad wok whereby various metals (likely aluminium) have been laminated together for heat distribution etc reasons - but in my experience they are no better than a steel one.
I always buy my woks from Chinatown and they are made from thinnish carbon steel and have a single wooden handle. I also buy lids and racks as separates. As you say, a lid is a great bit of kit, but not all woks come with them.
The great thing about a thin carbon steel wok is that it heats up quickly, can be cooked over extremely high heat, but also importantly, it cools down quickly.
The reason I don't advocate cooking over high heat in non-stick is that it can, over time, stop them being so non-stick. I've never used a non-stick wok as I tend to use metal tongs and spoons in them and I wouldn't want to scratch them. Also, I've found that non-stick woks are thicker, heat up slower and are too heavy to toss around.
I always buy one-handled woks because you can toss and flip things in them fairly easily (with a little practice) and used in conjunction with a long handled "spoon" or tongs you can cook effectively and efficiently.
The other thing to consider is flat-bottomed or round-bottomed.
Flat bottoms work well on electric and induction hobs (not all woks will work on induction though) as the more surface area in contact with the heat source, the faster they'll heat up and stay hot.
Gas favours round bottoms when sat on a round ring that sits on the stove's trivets (although many have built in wok-rings now). You'll generally find the hottest point is right at the bottom, so keep this in mind when browning meat or vegetables.
One complaint I've often heard is that things stew in the wok. I've found that the reason for this is mostly because people overcrowd the wok. You're better to stir-fry vegetables in several batches over full heat, than to fry a whole lot at once.
So, choose one with a lid which is great for steaming - when you stir fry broccolini in sesame and ginger put a lid on and cook another 90 seconds to help it cook. Racks are great - some sit halfway across the wok and are priceless when deep-frying as a draining rack. Big wide spoons (sold with woks in Chinatown) are perfect when scraping or lifting food from them.
And remember, when you've finished cooking, scrub the wok with warm water and soft nylon, don't use detergent unless really necessary. Then rub the smallest amount of oil all over the inside to prevent them rusting and store the wok bone dry.

Obama's latest, familiar strategy
President Barack Obama made his plans for his newly won political capital official — he's going to hammer House Republicans on immigration.
And it's evident from his public and private statements that Obama's latest immigration push is, in at least one respect, similar to his fiscal showdown strategy: yet again, the goal is to boost public pressure on House Republican leadership to call a vote on a Senate-passed measure.
Story Continued Below
"The majority of Americans think this is the right thing to do," Obama said Thursday at the White House. "And it's sitting there waiting for the House to pass it. Now, if the House has ideas on how to improve the Senate bill, let's hear them. Let's start the negotiations. But let's not leave this problem to keep festering for another year, or two years, or three years. This can and should get done by the end of this year."
( WATCH: Assessing the government shutdown's damage)
And yet Obama spent the bulk of his 20-minute address taking whack after whack at the same House Republicans he'll need to pass that agenda, culminating in a jab at the GOP over the results of the 2012 election — and a dare to do better next time.
"You don't like a particular policy or a particular president? Then argue for your position," Obama said. "Go out there and win an election. Push to change it. But don't break it. Don't break what our predecessors spent over two centuries building. That's not being faithful to what this country's about."
Before the shutdown, the White House had planned a major immigration push for the first week in October. But with the shutdown and looming debt default dominating the discussion during the last month, immigration reform received little attention on the Hill.
( PHOTOS: Immigration reform rally on the National Mall)
Immigration reform allies, including Obama's political arm, Organizing for Action, conducted a series of events for the weekend of Oct. 5, most of which received little attention in Washington due to the the shutdown drama. But activists remained engaged, with Dream Act supporters staging a march up Constitution Avenue, past the Capitol to the Supreme Court Tuesday, to little notice of the Congress inside.
Obama first personally signaled his intention to re-emerge in the immigration debate during an interview Tuesday with the Los Angeles Univision affiliate, conducted four hours before his meeting that day with House Democrats.
Speaking of the week's fiscal landmines, Obama said: "Once that's done, you know, the day after, I'm going to be pushing to say, call a vote on immigration reform."
( Also on POLITICO: GOP blame game: Who lost the government shutdown?)
When he met that afternoon in the Oval Office with the House Democratic leadership, Obama said that he planned to be personally engaged in selling the reform package he first introduced in a Las Vegas speech in January.
Still, during that meeting, Obama knew so little about immigration reform's status in the House that he had to ask Rep. Xavier Becerra (D-Calif.) how many members of his own party would back a comprehensive reform bill, according to a senior Democrat who attended.
The White House doesn't have plans yet for Obama to participate in any new immigration reform events or rallies — that sort of advance work has been hamstrung by the 16-day government shutdown.
But the president emerged on Thursday to tout a "broad coalition across America" that supports immigration reform. He also invited House Republicans to add their input specifically to the Senate bill — an approach diametrically different than the House GOP's announced strategy of breaking the reform into several smaller bills.


text: Is Chrome Dead? 14 April 2011 TireGuy Wheels Is Chrome Dead?I am pleased to announce after a ten year run chrome plated wheels are officially uncool. At least in the West Coast. Chrome plating and the West Coast just don't mix. Our climate loves to kill chrome. Salt and water are the perfect catalysts to start the pitting and peeling that comes with chrome wheels running through our winters. Most car manufactures have learned this lesson the hard way and now offer their chrome wheels as plastic cladding not plating. This is a step up from a hubcap but not much of one. Customers are moving away from chrome and into diamond cut and satin paint finishes. Ironically some of the first custom wheels in the early 80's were finished the same way. Some of you might remember the first generation of Fittipaldi, Enkei or Momo wheels. Paint finish and quaility of clearcoats was of parmount importance, not a layer of tinfoil wrapped around your wheel. Chrome is now used a an accent on wheels. Chromed stainless steel lips and windows are a good example. The plating bonds to stainless steel and plastica offering a much lower maintenance cost compared to chromed aluminum. For some hot new trends in wheel finishes check out: and Leave the chrome for the gansters..

South Jersey Town Mourns Death of Boy in ATV Accident
A south Jersey town mourns the death of an 11-year-old boy in an ATV accident on Tuesday.Russell Anthony Leone was riding on Oakgrove Road late in the afternoon with an 8th grade old girl as they pulled a sled with two seventh grade girls when they hit the truck which had a snow plow attached.
The father of the fifth-grade student at Logan Elementary School, Russell D. Leone, told the Times that his son played the piano and was a wrestler for Kingsway Junior Wrestling. "His time was cut short," he told the South Jersey Times.
Police say the ATV came onto the road which leads to an asphalt plant from a field, possibly from behind a row of trees.
Leone, and the girl were taken to Crozer Chester Medical Center in Chester County, Pennsylvania. The girl on the ATV remains hospitalized with non-life threatening injuries while the girls on the sled were not injured. None were wearing a helmet.
The driver of the truck, Michael McCann, 46, of Bridgeton, not hurt and has not been charged by Logan Police.
Logan Township Police Chief James Schmidt tells the South Jersey Times the ATV belonged to Russell's parents. Schmidt says this is the first accident involving an ATV he can recall in the town.
Grief counselors were on hand at both Logan Elementary School and Center Square School where the four involved attended classes.
"From a district's perspective, the school district is saddened by the loss of one of our students," Logan Township School Board President Francis Donnelly told the Times. "Our job right now is not to figure out what happened but to support the friends and family of the victim."

The Secret Beyond Matter
Recombination means a new genotype (or hereditary structure) being produced by the genetic characters of the two genders combining. However, recombinations must not be confused with mutations. In mutation, in order for changes taking place in the individual's genotype to be effective, they must take place in the reproduction genes.
Recombination, on the other hand, is a constant process that gives rise to new combinations of genes in every offspring, as a result of natural sexual reproduction. Recombination results from the regrouping of genes from the mother and father during the formation of their reproductive cells. Before cell division, the fertilized egg always takes half its genetic material from the mother and half from the father, but recombination plays a definitive and influential role in the formation of variety. (See Variation.) Thus except in the case of identical twins, two offspring are never identical to one another, and neither are their genetic contents exactly the same as their parents'.
Some evolutionists interpret variation through recombination as an evolutionary factor. 199 However, this is not scientifically valid. Variation is a natural process arising from genetic mixing during reproduction. Yet there is no question of a new species emerging through recombination, or of new information being added beyond that already recorded in the genes.
Studies on recombination occupy a very important place in the understanding of genetic mechanisms. Recombination has guided scientists' production of the chromosome map, identification of genetic abnormalities, and in genetic transplants of one chromosome to another.199.

ew, the taste and after taste make me cringe. Totally gross. The only mildly okay tasting one is the strawberry and even so its soo artifical. Yuck
I would highly recommend this product.
I absolutely LOVE Devour Me Lickable Oil, and pina colada flavor is my favorite because...well, it's just delicious. This oil spreads well, feels good against your skin, and a little goes a long way. Oh, and it tastes good, too. Lick away!
--from our reviewer, Rhiannon
If you are looking for an edible oil to use during a massage, you have found it. This oil is sweet, slippery and tastes good. Really. I said it tastes good, and I mean it. And not in the this tastes better than that horrible stuff. I mean it tastes good. So smear it on and lick it off.
Or, if you are like us, use it to solve a problem we have had for years. Mrs. Peg gives incredible hand jobs. The key is the right lube. We prefer a silicone lube because it is like an oil in that it is long lasting and not so slick that you lose all friction. After all, a little friction is necessary. Mrs. Peg also gives amazing blow jobs. While she is able to add some hand job to the blow job, she really can't add some blow job to the hand job. She just doesn't want a mouthful of lube. Enter Devour Me Lickable Body Oil. Not only is it a great hand job oil, it's lickable, suckable and nibble-able. Problem solved!

Wedding Invitation Wording
The proper wedding invitation wording is critical and we tell you everything there is to know. Whether it be a Church wedding, home wedding, second marriage or whatever, the proper etiquette and wedding invitation wording are essential. The links above will show you the proper wording and etiquette for any occasion.
The Wedding Invitation Etiquette
Wedding invitations are sent to those friends, relatives and acquaintances who are to be present at the ceremony. When the wedding is to be a large church affair, invitations are sent to all those whose names appear on the visiting lists of the two families including relatives and friends of the bride and groom. With regard to business associates, the invitation should be extended because of the friendship, not the business connection. The core of a successful wedding invitation list needs to consist of people who know well, care about and love the Bride and Groom. For a home wedding, more discrimination is shown in the issuing of invitations. Intimate friends and relatives of both families are invited, but no casual acquaintances. In sending out the invitations, the bride-to-be and her mother should take into consideration the number of people who will fit comfortably into the reception area.
The Invitation List for your Wedding
It is necessary for the bride and groom to-be to make out their list of those to whom invitations are to be sent together. If the wedding is to be a large affair, not only their friends but the friends of their parents as well, and business acquaintances of both families should be invited. If the wedding is a small one great care should be taken lest the guests are so numerous as to overcrowd the church or home. Especially is this true of the home where the space is usually more limited.
Mailing the Wedding Invitation
All wedding invitations should come from the home of the bride, even those that are for the personal friends of her husband even if they are unknown to the bride. They should be mailed about six weeks before the day set for the wedding. Out of town guests should be sent a "Save the Date" card, preferably with hotel suggestions, in time for them to make travel accommodations (usually 8-10 weeks in advance).

- After that whole horsemeat scandal, Burger King has announced that it will be testing its burger patties for non-beef DNA, including horse, pork, and lamb. So far, it has been testing specifically for horse DNA and hasn't found any in its beef, but that doesn't necessarily mean it's free of other kinds of animals... [url]
- The US FDA has officially adopted DNA barcoding to detect seafood mislabeling. Think you're eating "white tuna" sushi? Maybe you're actually eating "escolar" which has been banned in Japan since 1977 because the Japanese government is concerned about its "toxicity". [url]
- A laser "isotope ratio-meter," which was originally designed to study carbon isotope levels on Mars, is now being used to test the purity of honey. This kind of laser analysis can even match the honey to the flowers of a specific geographic region. Honey is expensive, so it's often adulterated with cheaper ingredients, like sugar, malt sweeteners, corn or rice syrup, to name just a few honey substitutes. [url]

Okay, credit first goes to Byron's Dutch Oven site for this great recipe and then credit goes to my brother-in-law Kendall for making it on our annual two-family campout this summer. Spencer is already saying he wants it for his birthday dinner (I guess he's forgotten birthday cake). No, those aren't beans and shredded cheddar on top, it's the chocolate chips and chopped walnuts.
For cake:
1 yellow cake mix, mixed as directed
For mud:
1/2 c cocoa
2 c brown sugar
1 c hot water
1 t cinnamon
2 t vanilla
For topping:
1 1/2 c chocolate chips
3/4 c chopped walnuts
Line the bottom and sides of a 10" Dutch oven with heavy foil, avoiding any seams where the mix might leak through and spray lightly with oil. Pour prepared cake mix into Dutch oven. In a separate bowl combine all "Mud" ingredients and stir until well mixed. Pour mud mixture over the cake batter. Cover Dutch oven and bake using 8-10 briquettes bottom and 14-16 briquettes top for 60 minutes. Or cook 70 minutes at 350 in conventional oven, checking to make sure it's done. Sprinkle chocolate chips and pecans over top of cake about 5 minutes before cake is done so that they melt over the top.
Serve warm topped with soft vanilla ice cream or whipped creamTechnorati tags: Dutch oven, chocolate, cake, desserts

Ahad Ha'am and the Shabbat
March 28, 2014
Every week, Jody Hirsh, the JCC's Judaic Education Director, provides a Judaic message that is featured at the top of the JCC's weekly email newsletter. Below is the Shabbat message for Friday, March 28, 2014.
Ahad Ha'am and the Shabbat
The great Hebrew philosopher Ahad Ha'am (1856-1927) is often referred to as "The Secular Rabbi." Yet, he was an influential Zionist thinker and criticized Theodor Herzl and others for being not Jewish enough! According to his biographer, Steven Zipperstein (Elusive Prophet: Ahad Ha'am and the Origins of Zionism), in the midst of his smoke filled Friday night Zionist salons, his wife would light Shabbat candles in another room! In his famous 1898 essay, "Shabbat and Zionism," he wrote:
Anyone who feels a true bond in his heart with the life of the nation over many generations, simply will not be able – even if he believes neither in the World to Come nor the Jewish State – to imagine the Jewish People without Shabbat Malketa [the Sabbath Queen]. It may be said without exaggeration that more than the Jewish People have kept the Shabbat, the Shabbat has kept the Jewish People.
Even for the agnostic Ahad Ha'am, Shabbat remained a central institution that sustained him as it sustains the Jewish People.
Shabbat Shalom

I read an article either on Hacker News and Reddit explaining the different ways a person could obtain a user's account password if they had physical access to the terminal.
For Windows it was rainbow tables, and they even gave a program that you could pop into the CD drive, retrieves the hashes, and then processes them, or something to that effect.
For Mac OS, I don't remember.
For Linux, it was something about easily bypassing user settings.
Can anyone elaborate on these please?

Role Playing
As a sophomore, guard Brandon Payton made a successful switch from playing primarily the point guard position to playing primarily the two guard spot. As a junior, the Gaucho coaching staff hopes that Payton, one of the team's most potent offensive weapons, can make the same progress on the defensive end of the court. If he can achieve that level of progress defensively and gain greater consistency on the offensive end, Payton will become an even more important part of the Gaucho scheme.
Mr. Bigshot
In his two seasons, Payton has proven to be a pretty adept clutch shooter at times. As a freshman, it was his jumper as time ran out that gave the Gauchos a home victory over New Mexico State. Last year, his last-second heroics played a part in at least two key UCSB wins. On January 20, Payton hit a jumper with 20 seconds remaining and a pair of free throws with two seconds left to help the Gauchos win at Cal Poly, 78-75. On March 4, in the first round of the Big West Tournament, Payton's 16-foot jumper with seven seconds remaining gave UCSB a 75-74 win over Utah State, its first tournament victory since 1993.
Payton The Sparkplug
Payton began his sophomore season the way he ended his freshman season, in the starting lineup. After starting six of the first eight games, however, he was removed from the starting lineup. In fact, Payton came off the bench for 19 of the final 20 games of the season and over that span, UCSB recorded a 14-5 record. Despite coming off the bench for the majority of his time in 1998-99, Payton still averaged 22.5 minutes per contest and he was often in the lineup at key junctures towards the end of games. In 13 of the 20 games in which he came off the pine, Payton played 20 or more minutes and seven times he played 24 or more.
Driving The Mustangs Crazy
Not a Ford Mustang, but rather the Cal Poly Mustangs. In his first two seasons as a Gaucho, Brandon Payton has had some pretty good games and two of the best have come on the road at Cal Poly. As a freshman, Payton burned the Mustangs with a career-best 23-point game. In that one, he canned 8-of-12 shots from the field, including a school-record 5-for-5 from three-point range. Last season, he scored 17 points, including a jumper and two free throws in the final 20 seconds, to help the Gauchos to a come-from-behind 78-75 victory.
Improving With Age
Although he only averaged about a minute per game more as a sophomore than as a freshman, most of Payton's statistical averages took significant jumps. His scoring average went from 7.9 to 9.1, his rebounding average went from 1.9 to 2.9 and his steals went from 0.5 to 1.0. The only category that took a fairly steep drop was assists which went from 2.3 to 0.9, coinciding with Payton's shift from point guard to two guard.

Sewell Chan, the thorough and prolific NY Times boy wonder, included an awesome quote from anti-violence activist Joe Samalin: "There were a lot of things in the [gray rape] article that concerned and frustrated me," [Samalin] said. He said that intentionally or not, the article might have the effect of suggesting that "you can be a woman in charge of your own sexuality ... but not too much because these are the consequences that will happen to you." Local free rag Metro also wrote up the event, quoting John Jay women's center director Katie Gentile. "We'd never ask a robbery victim, 'Were you drunk?" Gentile said. "The culture has to change while we change, too." And Feministing got in on the action as well. [New York Times, Metro, Feministing]

Riding the Trans-Siberian Express from Beijing to Moscow is one of the great epic train journeys that takes you over 5,000 miles, through 8 different time zones, a quarter of the way around the globe. Travelling at approximately 50 miles an hour, the journey on the world's longest railroad takes you from Beijing through Inner Mongolia and the Gobi Desert to the Mongolian capital of UlaanBaatar before heading north to Russia and the vastness of Siberia. Following a stop in Ulan Ude, the train arches past Lake Baikal to Irkutsk and then onward through the Siberian wilderness to Novosibirsk, Ekaterinburg and Kazan before arriving in Moscow. In this gallery you will find photographs taken in Beijing at the start of the voyage, north to the border town of Erlian to Mongolia.Read More

Yesterday President Obama gave a speech on immigration reform at American University in Washington, D.C. President Obama promised that: "[the country] can create a pathway to legal status that is fair and works." Here are some key highlights from the speech:
Undocumented immigrants:
President Obama on deportation:
"Not possible. Such an effort would be logistically impossible and wildly expensive. Moreover, it would tear at the very fabric of this nation -–because immigrants who are here illegally are now intricately woven into that fabric."
Nonetheless, the President did not call for putting an end to deportation raids, an extremely pressing issue in our community.
He did recognize that undocumented workers are often exploited due to their legal status. He acknowledged that many get paid below the minimum wage, work at jobs where employers violate safety rules, and some do not report crimes due to fear of deportation. He also said that having an undocumented community hurts the economy because "billions in tax revenue are lost" because they are "paid under the table." Nevertheless, the President mentioned at least twice in his speech that the country welcomes the "best and brightest" immigrants, which seemed a criticism of the many undocumented immigrants who don't have high education levels and work primarily blue collar jobs.
Although in his speech the President affirmed his support for immigration reform, he said that undocumented immigrants should be held accountable for breaking the law. For their "eventual inclusion" in immigration reform, immigrants:
"Must get right with the law before they can get in line and earn their citizenship— not just because it is fair, not just because it will make clear to those who might wish to come to America they must do so inside the bounds of the law, but because this is how we demonstrate that being — what being an American means."
President Obama elaborated on this concept of "getting in line" by talking about paying fines. This obviously poses issues for low-income immigrants, who already pay huge fees to get to the United States and earn less than other workers.
Arizona law:
The President called the Arizona's SB 1070 racial profiling law "ill-conceived and divisive." Indeed, the Obama administration is expected to file a suit against Arizona. In his speech he pointed out to the racial profiling that Arizona-like laws, "[they] have the potential of violating the rights of innocent American citizens and legal residents, making them subject to possible stops or questioning because of what they look like or how they sound."
DREAM Act:
The President affirmed his support for the DREAM Act. The DREAM Act is a bill that would allow many undocumented Latino students (and other immigrant youth) who have lived in the country for more than five years to obtain a path to citizenship through college attendance or military enrollment.
Even though the President acknowledged that completely sealing the U.S.-Mexico border is not feasible, he reaffirmed his commitment to "securing" the border. President Obama was referring to his last month request of $600 million for border security to Congress. He has directed the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Secretary, Janet Napolitano, to "to improve our enforcement policy without having to wait for a new law." In his speech, nevertheless, there was no reference to the Mexican teen Sergio Adrian Hernandez Huereka, who was shot and killed by a U.S. Border Patrol agent at the Mexican side of the border, or the constant claims by immigrant women of physical and sometimes even sexual abuse from of U.S. Border Patrol officers.
Finally, the President did not set a timeline for Congress to address immigration reform, meaning the waiting game continues for action. Millions of undocumented immigrants will continue to live underground, facing labor exploitation and other abuses, until action is taken by our extremely polarized Congress.

I have read loads of forums and websites that all say you need the big expensive L lenses for surf photography from the beach. Unfortunately, as a teenager, I don't have anywhere near enough money to invest in these sorts of lenses (600mm F4, 100- 400mm F4.5 - 5.6, etc).
I am currently using a 55 - 250mm f4 - 5.6 but I am wanting to invest in a new, better lens. What would be the cheapest Canon lens that I could invest in that would give me much better results with a bigger focal length new or second hand.
Thanks for any help!

In early 2012, I learned of the organization called Cookies for Kids' Cancer. I knew immediately that I needed to do something for this cause…it was personal. You see, my stepson, Scott Geller, was fighting for his own life at that time. He was 32 years old and fought for over a year against a type of cancer only seen in children. On April 25th, that childhood cancer took the life of Scott. He asked me on more than one occasion that if he wasn't sick, would I have a job for him in my company. I promised him there would be.Two weeks after his death, I participated in my first Cookie for Kids' Cancer bake sale. The organizers of the bake sale even made sure I had photos of Scott at my table so I would know he was with me. He was.
As soon as I met Gretchen Holt Witt, Founder of Cookies for Kids' Cancer, we made a connection two women wish they never shared, the loss of a child. This was a connection we couldn't and wouldn't ignore. It was a connection we would use to make this world a better place. Fighting for these kids and this cause was where Scott would find his job.
How can you get involved? Join me in the fight against childhood cancer by hosting your own bake sale, purchasing cookies from cookiesforkidscancer.org, or making a donation to their cause. In addition, starting in the summer of 2013, you will be able to contribute simply by purchasing one of our specially marked packages that carry the Cookies for Kids' Cancer logo on the back. Part of the proceeds from the sale of these packages will go directly to fund Cookies for Kids' Cancer.
Thank you!

C. J. Retherford
I wish that the organization would start grooming this guy as a future catcher.
I don't care which team he plays on, and whether he eventually becomes their regular, or back up catcher. That would likely depend a lot on what they ultimately decide to do with Flowers. Apparently there is still some doubt as to whether Flowers belongs behind the plate, or at First.
At any rate, Retherford's coach at ASU believed that catching was his best opportunity for a future in baseball. Apparently the guy can play almost anywhere, and is a real baseball "rat".
Hawk Harrelson loves this guy, as do many other people who have seen him play. C. J. is a doubles machine. He set a Pioneer League record with 30 2B's in just 261 at bats in 2007. He already has 8 in just 69 at bats this year.
I don't know why they are using him at second. How many more middle infielders does this organization need? He has played a lot of third as well, but I'd still love to see him work on becoming a catcher.
