First two ingredients are named meat products.
Low quality grains and other controversial fillers, fat of unidentifiable origin.
The first two ingredients are named meat products. The first of these is meat inclusive of its water content (about 80%) and once that is removed it is likely that this ingredient would be more accurately placed somewhat further down the ingredient list (ingredients are listed in order of weight). However, the presence of a meat meal ingredient high on the list gives us confidence that there is an adequate amount of meat in the food. There is a further meat meal ingredient 12th on the list, which is too far down to make up a substantive portion of the food. This is a fish meal ingredient and we note that the manufacturer does not state the use of ethoxyquin-free sources (ethoxyquin is a chemical preservative commonly added to fish destined for meal, and is believed to be carcinogenic).
The third ingredient in the food is brewers rice. Brewers rice is a low quality grain and by-product. It is followed by brown rice which is a good quality grain that is low-allergenic and a good source of carbohydrates and additional protein.
The next ingredient is wheat. The use of which is a significant negative: wheat is believed to be the number one cause of allergy problems in dog food. This is followed by corn gluten meal, which is another very low quality ingredient. The AAFCO definition of corn gluten meal is the dried residue from corn after the removal of the larger part of the starch and germ, and the separation of the bran by the process employed in the wet milling manufacture of corn starch or syrup, or by enzymatic treatment of the endosperm. In plain English, that which remains after all the nutritious bits have been removed. Corn is also another very common cause of allergy problems in dogs.
Poultry fat is an ingredient of unidentified origin for which it is impossible to determine source or quality. Unidentified ingredients are usually very low quality. AAFCO define this as obtained from the tissues of poultry in the commercial processes of rendering or extracting. It consists predominantly of glyceride esters of fatty acids and contains no additions of free fatty acids. If an antioxidant is used, the common name or names must be indicated, followed by the words "used as a preservative"
Beet pulp is a filler and a controversial ingredient it is a by-product, being dried residue from sugar beets which has been cleaned and extracted in the process of manufacturing sugar. It is a controversial ingredient in dog food, claimed by some manufacturers to be a good source of fibre, and derided by others as an ingredient added to slow down the transition of rancid animal fats and causing stress to kidney and liver in the process. We note that beet pulp is an ingredient that commonly causes problems for dogs, including allergies and ear infections, and prefer not to see it used in dog food. There are less controversial products around if additional fibre is required. Tomato pomace is further filler.
Digest of poultry is yet another low quality ingredient. The AAFCO definition of animal digest is material which results from chemical and/or enzymatic hydrolysis of clean and undecomposed animal tissue. Likewise, spray dried poultry liver digest is a low quality flavouring.

MC Lakota Jonez live at Gathering of Nations tonight!
This week's feature story star has undeniable writing and performance chops. Interviewing MC Lakota Jonez was a chief example of one of journalism's many pleasures: A conversation ostensibly about one topic (a woman and her music) wades into deeper waters, and an array of other issues—in this instance, racism, gender dynamics, and the evolution of the artistic and cultural movement that is hip-hop, to name a few.
Tonight presents a special occasion to watch Jonez strut her stuff en vivo, amidst a crowd of already loyal fans. In just a matter of hours, she takes the stage at Stage 49 at the UNM Arena ("The Pit") for the Gathering of Nations' multigenre showcase, 7:45 p.m. (On the dot!) $17 general admission at the door not only gets you access to her show, but to all the evening's varied powwow happenings. For more information, check out the Gathering of Nations website and the site of the artist herself.

As a women entrepreneur you probably have in your business vision to be well-known in your industry and to easily attract clients and opportunities to speak, write and contribute: I call this being a Go-To Goddess.
Being the Go-To Goddess means having enough confidence in what you offer and how you change people's lives so that you are at the top of the list for other people to recommend you for clients, to the media, and to their colleagues for joint ventures. Getting to the Go-To Goddess level means it gets easier to attract clients and opportunities. But to get there, you have to commit to five things.
1. Take a Fresh and Powerful Stand. You can't play small. This isn't a time to do what everyone else is doing. Quite frankly, the world/Internet/marketing has changed so much that doing what everyone else is doing will kill your business.
This isn't a time to hide. You have to tap into your confidence, your inner strength, and your knowing that what you offer will make people's lives better. And be willing to write and speak about it in a way that grabs their attention by your unique style and claim.
If you are not writing, speaking, or using video or audio, then how will people find you? If you are using these marketing strategies but you are doing what you were doing three years ago, then your business will certainly disappear. It's time for deep listening to your tribe and to take a stand for your service and how it will truly address their problems and change their world. (Yes, change their world; it needs to be that bold of a claim!)
2. A Very Specific Tribe. I'm talking about a group of people who are flourishing, engaged and are actively interested in what you stand for. Who are these people? What do you know about them? What do you need to find out? The more specific you can be about who your services are for, then the more of an impact you can have with your marketing efforts. (Big fish-small pond still works.)
To take this further, you want to develop a sense of what your tribe wants, their problems, dreams, aches, and pains. What are their buzz words? What do they hate? What do they love? How do you fit in?
3. Multi-media Approach to Creating Your Go-To Goddess Brand Mystique. You can't just send a few emails and expect people to flood into your business. The world is so fragmented and, quite frankly, tired so that you have to use 10 ways to reach one person.
Example: You offer a teleclass and market with an email, a blog post, a Facebook event, a YouTube video tip, Tweet, preview teleclass, and an affiliate program. It's not that people will see you everywhere they just need to see you. You don't know which is their favorite way of getting information. You need to use more than one or two or three ways to reach your tribe.

The senator's plan aims to cover uninsured Americans and to reduce premium costs for everyone else.
IOWA CITY, May 29 — Senator Barack Obama proposed a major overhaul of the nation's health care system on Tuesday, aimed at covering the nearly 45 million uninsured Americans and reducing premium costs for everyone else.
In the biggest domestic policy proposal so far of his presidential campaign, Mr. Obama, the Illinois Democrat, said he would rely on a combination of the existing employer-based system and a new government program to make health insurance accessible to everyone. He also promised to reduce the cost of health insurance by helping with expenditures for catastrophic illnesses that are a major factor in driving up employers' rates.
Throwing down a challenge to a powerful industry, Mr. Obama pledged new scrutiny and new limits on the profits of the biggest insurance companies, declaring it was simply "the right thing to do."
Mr. Obama would pay for his plan by not renewing President Bush's tax cuts for the most affluent Americans — those making more than $250,000 a year — when they expire at the end of 2010, aides said. Campaign officials estimated that the net cost of the plan to the federal government would be $50 billion to $65 billion a year, when fully phased in, and said the revenues from rolling back the tax cuts were enough to cover it.
Mr. Obama's speech came after months of criticism that his campaign lacked specificity and policy heft on complex issues like health care. It was also his first foray into an area that is widely considered the home terrain of his leading opponent for the Democratic nomination, Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton of New York, who has yet to detail her own proposal.
The Obama plan drew from a long line of Democratic policy thinking; it reflects elements of proposals put forward by the Clintons, by Senator John Kerry in his 2004 presidential campaign and by former Senator John Edwards this year. It was built on advice from several economists, including Austan Goolsbee at the University of Chicago, David Cutler at Harvard and Stuart Altman at Brandeis.
Rival Democrats, recognizing the stakes on this signature issue, responded quickly, arguing that because Mr. Obama would not require every American to have insurance, it is not a true universal health plan.
Neera Tanden, policy director for Mrs. Clinton — who had earlier delivered an economic policy speech to compete with Mr. Obama's — welcomed Mr. Obama to the health care debate. Ms. Tanden added, "Senator Clinton believes that in addition to making healthcare more accessible, we have to achieve true universal health care so that every American has health care coverage."
Mark Kornblau, a spokesman for Mr. Edwards's campaign, said, "Any plan that does not cover all Americans is simply inadequate."
Others said the Democratic plans and approaches showed more agreement than ideological division.
"Voters will see more similarities than differences in the Democratic candidates' plans, and I think the edge will go to the candidate who convinces voters they can forge a consensus in Congress and get things done," said Drew Altman, president of the Kaiser Family Foundation, a health research group.
Stuart Altman of Brandeis, who served in the Nixon administration and has advised many candidates and politicians since, said the Obama plan had major similarities not just to other Democratic proposals, but also to the Massachusetts health plan passed under Mitt Romney, now a candidate for the Republican presidential nomination, when he was governor. Both are efforts to build on the existing system, with a mix of employer-based coverage and expanded public programs. But Mr. Altman said there were also differences, notably that the Obama plan puts more responsibilities on employers and focuses more on controlling costs, and avoids a requirement in the Romney plan that individuals buy coverage.
In his speech, Mr. Obama acknowledged that similar efforts to expand coverage had failed in the past, "crushed under the weight of Washington politics and drug and insurance industry lobbying."
But he added, "This cannot be one of those years."
His proposal includes a new requirement that employers either provide coverage to their employees or pay the government a set percentage of their payroll to provide it. Similar requirements have proven intensely controversial, notably in 1993-94, when the Clinton health care plan went down in large measure because of a small-business backlash.
Obama advisers said the smallest businesses would be exempt from this requirement.
Mr. Obama would create a public plan for individuals who cannot obtain group coverage through their employers or the existing government programs, like Medicaid or the State Children's Health Insurance Program. Children would be required to have health insurance. Subsidies would be available for those who need help with the cost of coverage.
He would also create a National Health Insurance Exchange, a regulated marketplace of competing private health plans intended to give individuals other, more affordable options for coverage. The public plan would compete in that Insurance Exchange, advisers said.
The Obama campaign revives an idea advanced by the Kerry campaign — using the federal government to cushion employers from sudden, disastrous spikes in health expenditures, by reimbursing health plans for the cost of catastrophic illnesses among their employees. Because of this and other cost-containment proposals, Mr. Obama estimated his plan would save the typical family up to $2,500 a year in their health insurance costs.
Mr. Obama described his plan to an audience at the University of Iowa, invoking the memory of Medicare and arguing that the time had come to finish the work of Harry S. Truman and Lyndon B. Johnson. He acknowledged that it would not be easy, but had to be done, because families who played by the rules were being driven into bankruptcy because of health care costs.
"It is simply not right that the skyrocketing profits of the drug and insurance industries are paid for by the skyrocketing premiums that come from the pockets of the American people," he said. "This is not who we are. And this is not who we have to be."
In New Hampshire, Mrs. Clinton gave what her campaign had billed as a major policy address on income inequality. She promised to take steps to combat "rising inequality and rising pessimism in our work force."
Mrs. Clinton said her prescriptions included reducing tax breaks for corporations, allowing Medicare to negotiate lower drug prices with pharmaceutical companies, eliminating incentives for companies to move jobs overseas and giving more students a chance to attend college.
"While productivity and corporate profits are up, the fruits of that success just haven't reached many of our families," she said. "It's like trickle-down economics without the trickle."

Unacceptable police violence against journalists covering demonstrations
Reporters Without Borders calls on the Greek authorities to publicly condemn cases of police violence against journalists during the demonstrations of the past few weeks and to give the police clear instructions not to use violence against media personnel in the future. The press freedom organization also demands an investigation into the recent cases. The level of violence employed by the police has been outrageous. Journalists said they were thrown to the ground and beaten, or were prevented from working by use of physical force. The police have also forced some journalists, including the Reporters Without Borders correspondent, to delete the photographs they had taken. "Journalists have a duty to provide the public with coverage of newsworthy events including demonstrations," Reporters Without Borders said. "The police should not treat them as if they were demonstrators. Furthermore, the police have no right to demand that they are not photographed while performing official duties. If they are behaving in a strictly legal manner, they should have nothing to hide." In one of the latest cases, Belgian news photographer Maxime Gyselinck was thrown to the ground and repeatedly hit by police at around 7:30 p.m. on 6 December on Benaki Street in the Athens district of Exarchia. When Greek freelance photographer Vangelis Patsialos went to help him, he was treated in exactly the same way. The police finally stopped hitting them when they realised they were journalists. One of the policemen then advised them to go to a hospital. Gyselinck was diagnosed with a fractured arm that was put in a plaster and a cracked rib, and was told to stop working for two weeks. The Reporters Without Borders correspondent in Greece was physically accosted by police several times on 6 December while photographing the way anti-riot police were using violence against protesters. The police ordered to delete her photos but she refused to comply. In an earlier case, Agence France-Presse photographer Aristotelis Messinis was manhandled by police three times while covering a demonstration in Athens on 17 November. He filed a complaint. The demonstrations taking place on 6 December, which were dispersed by anti-riot police, were to mark the second anniversary of the death of Alexandros Grigoropoulos, a 15-year-old youth who was shot dead by the police in the Athens district of Exarchia in 2008. Greece was ranked 70th in this year's Reporters Without Borders press freedom index, a sharp fall from last year, when it was ranked 35th.

Engine.spotscenered.info pop-up redirections in your browser are the proof of a serious problem which took place recently with your system. Permanent appearance of engine.spotscenered.info pop-ups may occur with all widely used browsers that are supported to work under Windows operating system, including Google Chrome, Opera, Mozilla Firefox and Internet Explorer. Sadly, Microsoft Edge is not an exception and may be regularly spewing out the multitude of such pop-ups while you will be surfing the web through the browser. Unfortunately, many people find it very difficult to get rid of these pop-ups manually. They try to check the list of legally installed applications and yet do not find anything that could cause such problems. Likewise, disabling and deleting suspicious add-ons (extensions) from browsers does not help to fix the problem. Engine.spotscenered.info pop-ups keep distracting people's attention.
Example of engine.spotscenered.info pop-ups as they appear in all major browsers:
Quick facts about engine.spotscenered.info pop-ups.
How could engine.spotscenered.info pop-ups become the component of your browser?
Tips to avoid engine.spotscenered.info pop-up show.
What happens with your browser when engine.spotscenered.info pop-ups are enabled?
Apart of the annoying character of engine.spotscenered.info pop-ups, computer owners will be facing more serious problems related to presence of adware in their computer. First of all, the system infected with these potentially unwanted programs will be permanently functioning extremely slow. This is because the adware will be regulary causing high CPU usage and may eventually cause the system to be freezing, up to the extent of permanent failure to operate.
What caused engine.spotscenered.info pop-ups to become active in your browser?
Many computers today can be infected as a consequence of person's failure to be attentive while spending time online. People could browse the web and suddenly click on certain malicious link, which will then automatically and in a hidden manner install certain potentially unwanted program like adware or browser hijacker, or some pseudo system optimization tool. Intrusion of adware that spews out engine.spotscenered.info pop-ups may also happen when people download and install some free software which can be found through various freeware download resources. Many free programs can be bundled by default with certain adware which is definitely not necessary. Sometimes people fail to notice such third-party applications suggested to be installed by default. During installation of free programs they may blindly click on "Next" or "I agree" buttons, without knowing what exactly they agree with. Obviously, this is the way they permit various unwanted programs to be installed. And the chances are that this is exactly the way how adware causing engine.spotscenered.info pop-ups penetrates into computers.
Furthermore, another essential factor which could facilitate engine.spotscenered.info pop-up intrusion is formalized in absence of powerful anti-malware protection software in targeted computer. Sometimes people simply do not prefer to have any anti-virus software at all. In such cases it is extremely easy for any computer infection to be injected. On the other hand, some anti-viruses installed in targeted computers could be poorly updated and simply fail to protect computers in times of malware attacks.
Ways to prevent engine.spotscenered.info pop-up intrusion.
The first piece of advice for you to prevent engine.spotscenered.info pop-up intrusion is to pay more attention to minor details during installation of free programs. You need to make sure that you do not allow any extra applications to be easily installed and enabled. So, take time to carefully browse through the installation guidelines associated with free applications you deal with. It is also a good practice that you read carefully the EULAs (End User License Agreements) related to free software. In case you find the information about some extra applications you do not need, make sure to immediately switch to the advanced or custom installation mode to avoid unpleasant surprises associated with PUPs (potentially unwanted programs) to take place. We urge you to be very careful at this very point of freeware installation. If you do not see advanced installation options, then simply cancel the entire process of dealing with this particular program bundled with other stuff you do not need.
The last but not the least, reconsider your available anti-virus software which promised to protect your system and yet permitted malware to be enabled. It is surely time to switch to some other anti-malware utility that will be able to render desired level of anti-malware defense for your computer, both for Windows and Mac systems. As a solution to remove engine.spotscenered.info pop-ups from your computer please follow this removal guide below.

RENTeGO apartments are the first in Prague to propose a mobile Wi-Fi hotspot so you can stay connected in town without roaming!
You can now navigate, check museum opening hours, send and receive emails and whatsapps and such, and more importantly take selfies and get likes while around Prague without risking roaming fees ;-)
Here is how it works:
In the apartment, you will find a mobile hotspot.
Usually, it will be located on the welcome table with explanations. Press the round button in the middle to switch it on - the two small LED lights on the left and right should light up in green"
Connect your phones, tablets etc.to the hotspot through Wi-Fi
The name of the network will be Rentego-mobile-wifi-XX where XX is a number.
The password will be rentego77.
Do not confuse this with the fixed Wi-Fi network of the apartment (Name Rentego, password rentego77 too).
You can connect up to 8 devices at the same time.
When in the apartment, it is better to connect directly to the apartment's fixed Wi-Fi.
Enjoy Prague fully with your connexion!
Enjoy Prague fully with your connection! You can now navigate, check museum opening hours, send and receive emails and whatsapps and such, and more importantly take selfies and get likes while around Prague without risking roaming fees ;-)
Uses to avoid if you do not want to get stuck quickly on FUP (Fair User Policy) Speed are: avoid streaming videos like Netflix (can use 3GB per hour), streaming music like Spotify (can use 115 MB/hour), Youtube (a few videos are OK but an hour would be 1.4 GB). For all such high bandwidth uses it is better to connect at home in your apartment.The mobile hotspot is usually clever enough to connect through Wi-Fi to the apartment Wi-Fi when you get home
When you get back to the apartment, make sure to plug the mobile hotspot back in to re-charge
And remember it is better to connect directly to the fixed Wi-Fi of the apartment (Rentego)
When you leave the apartment for good, do not forget to leave the hotspot in as you found it!
If you forget to do so, let us know ASAP and send it by recommended mail ASAP to our office (Rentego, palackeho 15/715, 110 00 Praha 1, Czech Republic). Otherwise we will charge 150 euros from your deposit.
Disclaimers: this is in Beta phase,
so usually it will work, but it might take some time before we get it to work properly...please be patient if something goes wrong ;-) In particular, you may run out of data and be limited by FUP, run out of power especially if you forget to re-charge it, and so on...Also, if you use this, we assume you are already familiar with technology. Since we provide it for free we cannot pay an army of IT technicians to teach or troubleshoot -if the hotspot works with one device but does not work with one of yours, help from our technicians to troubleshoot will be optional and charged 20 euros per hour.
Advanced users-manual-application and download
While connected to the mobile hotspot through Wi-Fi, you can connect to http://192.168.8.1/ to check battery and data
You can download the android app http://consumer.huawei.com/minisite/mobilewifiapp/app.html to monitor battery and connexion. (or use the QR code)

The August 2012 USDA calculations for SCR (Semen Conception Rates) revealed that IPS (International Holstein Sires) had the #1, #2 and #3 Holstein sires. "We were very pleased that IPS had the top three Holstein bulls for SCR. Since our inception, IPS has strived for dairyman endorsed results with high conception. Maintaining our standard of thirty million sperm count per unit of semen is one of the contributing factors in achieving these results," expressed Ron Sersland, President and CEO of IPS.
Owner: Bassvale Holsteins, Wisconsin
The #1 daughter proven SCR bull in the breed is 99HO6145 Barry with +6.1 SCR on more than 2,000 inseminations. At nearly +2.00 for type, Barry's udder composite is +1.83 and +1.50 FL. He has attained a superior rating for PL at +1.8 and SCS at 2.70. Barry also excels for components, both fat and protein. Barry is a Shottle son from a Very Good daughter of Bellwood Marshall that also received the Gold-Medal-Dam designation.
JehosaphatMaybe the most exciting genomic young sire is 99HO7070 Jehoshaphat with a +5.5 SCR, ranked #3. At +2143 GTPI, Jehoshaphat is sired by Planet from a Very Good-88 classified daughter of Shottle. With a milk proof at nearly one ton, Jehoshaphat has a type rating of +2.46 and udder composite score at +2.08. His fitness traits are also commendable with a +4.4 PL standing.
Topping out the IPS breed-leading SCR bulls is 99HO6378 Passion at +7.6, achieved through more than 2,000 inseminations. With a limited semen supply, Passion's milk proof is +1487. His three major conformation traits are all plus; type, udder composite along with feet and leg. Passion is a Toystory son from an Excellent-91 classified daughter of Comestar Outside.
The high impact IPS proven sire lineup is available worldwide through a network of independent distributors and company employees. Located in Rock Springs, Wisconsin, you may learn more about IPS through their website, www.ipssires.com or by calling toll free: 1.800.542.7593

Hi Guys,
I have a template created for replying to messages, but I have a problem with the subject line.
In the template, I have the subject defined as, "Re: %subject%", but this is a problem when replying to a message with a Re: in the subject, because after several e-mail replies back and forth, the subject turns to "Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: %subject%" etc...
Is there a way to use Pocomail's default subject, i.e. only using a Re: before the subject title if one does not already exist?

Authorities also seize stolen firearm
A state Highway Patrol driver�s license checkpoint turned up more than a pound of marijuana June 21.
According to a release from the Lenoir County Sheriff�s Office, two men in a black Chevrolet Impala drove up to the checkpoint on Banks School Road, near Ridgewood Drive, and one of the troopers detected a strong scent of marijuana and asked the driver, Christopher Deon Jones, to pull over to the side of the road.
LCSO Lt. Alana Liberty assisted with the further investigation and confirmed the strong marijuana smell.
During a pat-down search of passenger Jeffrey Leon Jones, authorities found 12 small bags containing what was suspected to be marijuana and a stolen firearm. A further search of the car reveled roughly a pound of marijuana in a bag in the trunk.
�Both agencies did an outstanding job in stopping these offenders from distributing this illicit product to the street,� Sheriff Chris Hill said in a statement. �I hope the good folks of Lenoir County are seeing the hard work that my officers and the NCSHP, as well as all law enforcement, are doing for them.
�We are in a proactive enforcement mode trying to reduce crime and drug sales by utilizing different policing strategies.�
Christopher Jones faces charges of possession with intent to manufacture, sell or distribute a Schedule VI controlled substance, and maintaining a vehicle for controlled substances. He was booked into the Lenoir County Detention Center on a $5,000 bond.
Jeffrey Jones faces charges of possession with intent to manufacture, sell or distribute a Schedule VI controlled substance, and possession of a stolen firearm.
The Joneses are due back in Lenoir County District Court on July 9.

Just a brief update on our temporary absence from the blogging scene. These last few months have been ultra busy and challenging for both of us – a new job, many new recipes being developed and tested for our upcoming new book (watch for it in the coming year as well as a rebirth of our present blog format), a new roof being installed on our house, and sadly, the loss of our beloved cat Bhakti on September 4th. We posted about him earlier in the year, telling you about his struggle with lymphoma. What a challenging journey – so many ups and downs. He fought so hard to live, but in the end his body was too weak to sustain the life he desired. We'll always treasure the gift of this beautiful and special soul's presence in our lives. A peaceful spirit, filled with pure love and joy. Just thinking about him brings a smile to my face and fills my heart with joy. Continue reading
Eastern Mediterranean Pizza
We actually made this recipe for the first time a couple of weeks ago, but it was late in the day and we lacked the necessary natural light to photograph it. This recipe intrigued us, since pita bread is not easily converted to gluten free, and admittedly, we have yet to make just pita bread using this recipe. Before singling out the pita bread, we wanted to just explore this dough for the pizza itself, and if it turned out to be successful, develop it further for really good gluten free pita bread in the future. The contributing bakers on the original recipe were Jeffrey Alford and Naomi Duguid and you can watch the Baking with Julia PBS segment here. Please do check out the contributions by all the other doriestas at TWD's link here. Sadly, we are currently without a host for this recipe, but you can find the original recipe in Baking with Julia, page 156. Continue reading
Johnny Cake Cobbler
After a brief break from baking in general, we are back once again on a Tuesday, baking along with our fellow doriestas. This week we were given two options, either a Fig Crostata, or Johnny Cake Cobbler. The selection was easy, since we had just purchased the most amazing, locally grown fresh peaches at Whole Foods. The recipe actually calls for sliced nectarines and purple plums, but peaches are in season and were an easy substitution. For those of you that are unfamiliar with our TWD baking experiments, there is usually a weekly host who supplies the actual recipe from the book Baking with Julia. Lacking a host for this week's recipe, we will break with tradition and supply our own gluten free version. Continue reading
Tropical Fruit Gazpacho
Here, in the midst of Summer, we are finally back to regular posting. Quite honestly, we missed all of you, as well as the process of creating a post, birthing it and releasing it out into the world. Back in June, our initial plan was to take a couple of weeks off from our recipe development projects, especially the creation of so many yeast-based recipes. Between finalizing recipes for our upcoming book and our participation in the wonderful TWD group, we felt a little overwhelmed.
Savory Brioche Pockets
As promised last week, here is our gluten free version of the savory brioche pockets. They were easier to make than originally thought, but required an additional 10 tablespoons of flour to achieve the right consistency described in the book. Our trusted old stand mixer ended its life during the creation of our last cook book, and we have not been able to replace it since, holding out hope for a pro KitchenAid. But it turns out, with a little effort, one can make this recipe using an ordinary hand mixer. Maybe we can credit the blend of gluten free flours for allowing this, a heavier wheat dough might not cut it. In all fairness, we did not have to run the mixer for the 15 plus minutes suggested in the book. We managed to achieve the desired results in about 10 minutes, with the mixer running warm, but still alive. Continue reading
Fresh Pear Upside-down Cake
The original recipe for this week actually called for upside-down baby cakes made with rhubarb. Since we had neither baby cake pans nor rhubarb, we decided to change things up a bit. Upside-down cakes are extremely versatile, allowing for easy substitutions, and are among our favorite cakes for this very reason. The other issue we ran into, looking at the original recipe, was the fact that it called for bourbon, not something we are particularly fond of. Continue reading
Chocolate Rice Cakes
When most of us start embracing a gluten free lifestyle, especially when it is due to health reasons, someone along the way introduces us to rice cakes because it is considered to be a safe substitution for regular bread. This person is generally well-meaning but the expression in their eyes belies their actions – they are really thinking "You poor thing – that is all you are going to eat from now on. Sure glad it isn't me?!?" Most of us have experienced this scenario at one point or another. I think most of us have mixed feelings about rice cakes. It is definitely a safe option, but perhaps not the most enticing when it comes to flavor. This post is not intended to unfairly criticize rice cakes – far from it. We always have some on hand, just in case. Our favorite brand, hands down, is Lundberg, which offers organic brown rice cakes, which are also non-GMO. Continue reading

My new sewing space; welcoming, huh?
I see this as symbolic of my mental state after the fun of moving house.
I see this as symbolic of my mental state after the fun of moving house.
Goodness this blog has been neglected lately! And it feels a bit now or never coming back to it. To be honest, the more time has passed, the more I've felt like letting it die a quiet death. I'd been feeling a bit boggled and blah about the whole thing, and then a few days ago happened upon a lovely email in my inbox which really touched me and made me miss all the things I love about blogging.
It's been a long-haul few months. Around a week after my last post we sold our house to a buyer who wanted us out just over three weeks later, which didn't leave much time for blogging, taking stock, or even packing. I did briefly consider just taping myself up into a box marked 'fragile' and hiding when faced with the task of packing up an entire house with just a 13-month old to help. But somehow it happened, our stuff went into storage and after a short spell camping at my parents' house (whose patience must be limitless to have put up with us and our three children as well as a good deal of our clobber for several weeks), we moved in to our new home. Some headaches along the way, not least finding our children had been allocated two different schools, around 1 mile to the first, then 2.5 miles on to drop off the next in 10 minutes time with some crippling hills in between ... I mean, I like walking, but I can't fly. Thankfully we've finally sorted that one, and after a busy couple of months unpacking and decorating, along with parenting (which has slowed down the first two), I'm finally turning around, taking stock and thinking about blogging again.
We're loving our new life in Monmouthshire, although missing the friends we've left behind. The countryside around here is beautiful, our new home town has its very own castle, and we have a fabulous view of the Severn bridge as we walk to school. Oh yes, we've gone over to the other side (that's to say the Welsh side, and back to the homeland for me). The house is great, with so much more scope for swinging cats. And guess what, there's even a sewing room for me. My husband is intent on calling it a 'study' for some reason, but he'll soon learn that I don't really intend this to be shared space.
This week marks me finally unpacking the sewing machine, and some actual stitches sewn. I feel 100 times better about most things when I'm making stuff, and I've felt positively joyous this week stitching in the ditch and handsewing the binding onto a baby quilt for my new nephew. Now to try and keep up the momentum.
See you on the ice.

USTR Sued For Failing To Reveal TPP Details In Response To FOIA Request
from the national-security? deptWilliam New, the guy who runs the excellent IP Watch website has been trying to find out more about the TPP agreement for quite some time. Working with some students from Yale's Media Freedom and Information Access Clinic, New filed a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request for TPP-related documents. The USTR waited nearly a year to respond (well beyond the 20 working days required by the law), and then told New that they weren't providing the documents, saying that the draft text of the TPP is classified as "national security information."
Yeah. A draft of a trade agreement that will impact us all, but is being negotiated in secret by the USTR and a small group of corporate lobbyists, is "national security" information.
In response, New and the MFIA clinic have now filed a lawsuit against the government concerning the failure to provide this information. I have no idea how the lawsuit will turn out, but it seems likely that the TPP text will be revealed as "finalized" before anything really happens with the lawsuit. Still, hopefully they'll be able to argue that they were seeing the draft texts, rather than the final agreement, and set some sort of precedent.
When asked about the lawsuit over the near total lack of transparency, the USTR's spokesperson Carol Guthrie repeated the same completely bogus talking point she sends to everyone (she's sent it to me in the past as well about other TPP issues):
The reality is that TPP negotiations have been more transparent and consultative than any U.S. trade agreement in history while maintaining the confidentiality appropriate for a government-to-government negotiation. Releasing internal deliberative documents would undermine U.S. leverage in negotiations and impair our ability to pursue the strongest possible outcomes on issues ranging from labor and environmental protections to market access for U.S. goods and services.This statement is as obnoxious as it is misleading. First of all, being "more transparent" is meaningless if the baseline is "totally opaque" and this is a tiny bit more transparent. Second, and more importantly, Guthrie and the USTR continue to use this bogus assertion that listening to lots of people is "transparency." We've explained (and I've told her directly) that transparency is not listening, it's about information flowing in the other direction. Listening is about taking information in. Transparency is about information flowing in the other direction. Claiming that being "consultative" is being "transparent" is simply false. It's not.
Finally, the claim that releasing "deliberative documents would undermine U.S. leverage in negotiations" is equally bogus. As many have pointed out, all sorts of international agreements are negotiated in public, with proposals being released publicly while the negotiations are ongoing. The recently concluded Marrakesh Treaty for the Blind worked that way. It's becoming completely obvious that the USTR has absolutely no interest in even the slightest bit of honest debate over its role in pushing the agenda of a few large companies against the best interests of innovation, jobs and the American public. While it may get them high paying jobs with lobbyists in a couple years, it's a shame they feel the need to sell out the public for their personal benefit, and it's worse that they're doing this with the stamp of approval from the White House.

The suit, filed in U.S. District Court in San Francisco last week by California user Lucy Funes, claims that Instagram's "unilateral" changes to its terms of use transfer "valuable property rights to Instagram while simultaneously relieving Instagram from any liability for commercially exploiting customers' photographs and artistic content."
The suit also notes that while users can decline to participate by canceling their accounts, they still forfeit rights to photos they have already shared.
An Explosion
The suit follows changes Instagram made to its terms of service earlier this month. These changes gave the company the right to share member photos in advertising without notice or compensation. Instagram included a mandatory arbitration clause requiring users to sign away their rights to participate in a class action lawsuit in most circumstances.
After an explosion of fury among its users, the company backtracked, albeit slightly, deleting the language about compensation.
Facebook, which acquired Instagram earlier this year, did not respond to our request to comment for this story.
A Well-Trodden Path
The Instagram controversy is the latest chapter is an ongoing story that involves not only Facebook, but also other social media providers. As for Facebook, this back and forth with users irate over changed privacy terms is old hat.
Facebook recently introduced changes to its own privacy terms -- something it does quite frequently. The latest revision generally has been received as helpful to users, but critics have noted that it erodes just a little more of their rights.
They include a new request-and-remove tool for tagged photos and more transparency around the information that third-party apps want to access. However, they replace Facebook's user voting system for privacy changes with a system that emphasizes "high-quality" feedback instead.
"The question is whether this lawsuit [against Instagram] and the growing discontent with privacy policies causes organizations going forward to have to more prominently communicate exactly what is and what is not private to existing members, and make it very, very clear to new members prior to signing up," Matt Eventoff, principal with Princeton Public Speaking, told the E-Commerce Times.
"This is a communication issue as much as a privacy issue," he said, "as if intent is clearly communicated at the outset, surprises do not occur later."
Users Push Back
Even if social media providers step up their communication efforts, the genie may have already left the bottle.
As the Instagram suit illustrates, consumers are becoming more and more annoyed with the way their information is being used.
"I think the Instagram flap is an early warning of a much larger movement among users to seek to gain control over how information about them, content they create, and networks they belong to is used commercially by companies," said Rita Gunther McGrath, an associate professor at Columbia Business School.
"I also think that incidents like the Connecticut newspaper publishing the addresses of licensed gun holders in towns in the area is starting to wake people up to the fact that data that were once safely held in musty old court logs can be obtained and published for whatever purpose the publisher wishes -- these things will start to come together," she told the E-Commerce Times.
What Industry Has to Say
From the industry side, the Instagram suit points to more litigation.
It will one day prove to have been the start of a bigger wave of privacy-related suits, predicted Mark Melodia, partner and co-head of Reed Smith's global data security, privacy and management practice.
"While industry, the government and customers have been engaged in a serious dialogue seeking ways to strike a delicate balance between privacy and profit, the plaintiffs' class action bar will take every opportunity to cash in on uncertainty," he told the E-Commerce Times.
"That a company like Instagram, with a devoted fan base, is sued over a prospective change in its policies -- when no harm or impact has been felt by anybody -- shows that every company is at the same risk of backlash when it contemplates changes to its online ecosystem," Melodia concluded.

Peyton Manning threw three touchdown passes for the fifth consecutive game on Sunday against the Bengals, as the Broncos went to Cincinnati and left with a hard-fought 31-23 win.
Manning wasn't perfect on Sunday — both going to Cincinnati's Terence Newman on passes intended for Broncos receiver Eric Decker — but he demonstrated once again that while he may say he's not 100 percent healthy, he's back to being one of the best quarterbacks in the NFL, and an MVP candidate. Manning is putting up numbers comparable to those of his four MVP seasons in Indianapolis, and his Broncos are 5-3 and in first place in the AFC West.
Bengals quarterback Andy Dalton completed 26 of 42 passes for 299 yards and a touchdown, but he also threw an interception and was under constant pressure from Denver's Von Miller, who sacked Dalton three times.
The 3-5 Bengals have now lost four games in a row, and they're looking increasingly unlikely to return to the playoffs. But the Broncos are the clear favorites to win the AFC West, and if Manning keeps getting better, they might just be the best team in the AFC. With Manning running the show, Denver has what it takes to get to the Super Bowl.

Liberty mourns loss of education professor
|Jill Jones is pictured with her family, son Raymond Jones, Jr. (left), husband Raymond and son Nicholas ("Niko"). A funeral service is planned for 6:30 p.m. Thursday at TRBC, with visitation immediately following the service.
Hearts are aching at Liberty University today as the school mourns the loss of Dr. Jill Jones, associate professor of Graduate Education for the School of Education. Jones, 41, and her 16-year-old son Nicholas were killed Sunday in a car crash in Roanoke County, Va.
"The entire university community is deeply saddened by the sudden loss of Dr. Jones and her son," said Chancellor Jerry Falwell, Jr. "Dr. Jill Jones was one of Liberty University's finest faculty members. I have heard from many how she was an extremely competent professor and a committed Christian who went the extra mile with her students, showing them how teaching could be not only a profession but a ministry."
Falwell said his own son was a classmate of Nicholas "Niko" Jones, a junior at Liberty Christian Academy. The loss also hits hard at nearby Thomas Road Baptist Church, where Jones and her family were members. Jones was active in her Sunday school class and served as a "mentor mom." Jones leaves behind her husband, Raymond Jones, and son Raymond, Jr. A funeral service is planned for 6:30 p.m. Thursday at TRBC, with visitation immediately following the service.
Dr. Beth Ackerman, associate dean of Liberty's School of Education, started a Facebook page to remember her friend's life. Almost immediately students, former students and co-workers began expressing what this model teacher meant to them.
Liberty student Lindsay Beck writes: "Dr. Jones had a spirit of peace and humility about her that radiated every time she entered the classroom. I learned more than just Education related topics from her, most importantly I learned about God's love by her words and actions she displayed."
Ackerman said Jones brought "high energy" to her job, but also "high standards."
"She loved being at Liberty. She used to say how much she loved being able to pray over her students and sharing her faith. She would share this with me every time I saw her," Ackerman said. "… She was one of our toughest professors, but she was loved and respected."
Katie Gordon, who was in Jones' class last semester, said Jones would "always get down on her knees in front of the desk and pray for us."
Gordon also saw Jones' compassion for students when she had to email her professor one time because she was sick and could not make it to class.
"She responded not with what work I would need to make up, but instead asking what dorm I lived in because she was coming over to check up on me with a care package," Gordon writes.
Jones specifically focused on mentoring young women and recently wrote a women's devotional, "The Princess Journal: A 30 Day Journey of Learning to Live Like a Daughter of The King," published by Liberty University Press. She has traveled the country presenting at educational and women's conferences.
On Jones' online faculty profile page, she lists her three passions as "1) God, 2) My family and 3) education."
Ackerman said those are "more than words to her. … She said it and did it."
Now more of Jones' own words from this profile may be the most comfort to family and friends at this time:
"If I could give everyone only one piece of advice it would be the following, 'Greet each day by sliding out of bed and hitting your knees. Tell God how much you love Him and thank Him for everything you can think of. Then give Him your day, energy, passion, desire, and needs. Talk to Him throughout your day. Turn off the radio while you drive and picture Him sitting beside you. Tell Him what is on your mind and ask Him advice. Then wait for the answer. He is faithful to always respond...we often simply assume He will not. Finally, treat each day with the desire to make your Heavenly Father smile. I like to close my eyes and picture my actions bringing a smile to His face.'"

FILES ======== The project `pdfcrop' consists of two files: pdfcrop.pl: This perl script is the main program. The extension `.pl' may be omitted. README: Documentation, the file you are reading. Following temporary files are produced if `pdfcrop' is invoked: tmp-pdfcrop-*.tex: input file for pdfTeX tmp-pdfcrop-*.log: log file of pdfTeX run tmp-pdfcrop-*.pdf: result after pdfTeX run D. REQUIREMENTS =============== * Perl5 (version 5 of the perl interpreter) * Ghostscript (>= 8.0 if PDF file contains rotated pages) * pdfTeX, version >= 1.0 (because of page selecting and \pdfximage syntax) or XeTeX or LuaTeX. E. INSTALLATION =============== 1. Perl script `pdfcrop.pl': TDS 1.1 location (TDS means "texmf" tree, see CTAN:tds/tds.pdf): * TDS:scripts/pdfcrop/pdfcrop.pl * and a directory that is part of PATH contains a wrapper script or link with name "pdfcrop". Unix * It is allowed to rename `pdfcrop.pl' to `pdfcrop': mv pdfcrop.pl pdfcrop * Ensure that the execute permission is set: chmod +x pdfcrop * Move the file to a directory where the shell can find it (environment variable PATH, e.g. /usr/local/bin/). Dos/Windows * See requirements. I do not expect that the perl script run under DOS. 2. Restricted program version `rpdfcrop' Generate links or install `pdfcrop.pl' again under the name `rpdfcrop'. Prefer `rpdfcrop' if you want to add pdfcrop to the programs that may be executed in TeX's restricted shell escape mode. (This feature is added in TeX Live 2009.) For TeX Live (since 2009) see entry for `shell_escape_commands' in the configuration file `texmf.cnf'. 3. Documentation `README': Copy it to an appropriate place, for example `/usr/local/share/doc/pdfcrop/README'. It is allowed to rename it to `pdfcrop.txt'. TDS location: somewhere below texmf/doc/... (?) Examples: TDS:doc/support/pdfcrop/README TDS:doc/scripts/pdfcrop/README TDS:doc/scripts/pdfcrop.txt TeXLive 2008 and 2009 put it in TDS:doc/support/pdfcrop/README F. USER INTERFACE ================= * ToDo: User manual * Online help: pdfcrop --help * Ghostscript's calculation of the bounding box is faster, if --resolution 72 is used instead of ghostscript's implicite default setting of 4000 DPI (hint from Ionut Georgescu). Of course the calculation with higher resolution settings are more accurate. G. RESTRICTED MODE ================== Restricted mode is enabled if: * option `--restricted' is used, * the program is called under the name `rpdfcrop' * or the called program name contains `restricted'. This mode sets restrictions for the following options: * --pdftexcmd: if used, the value must be empty or `pdftex'. * --xetexcmd: if used, the value must be empty or `xetex'. * --luatexcmd: if used, the value must be empty or `luatex'. * --gscmd: if used, the value must * be empty or * be one of the standard names (gs, gswin32c, mgs, gs386 gsos2) or * consists of `gs', followed by a version number and an optional `c' (Ghostscript's convention for `console version').

ACKNOWLEDGEMENT ================== Anthony Williams Scott Pakin <pakin at uiuc.edu> Ionut Georgescu Yves J\"ager R (Chandra) Chandrasekhar Christian Stapfer David Menestrina Karl Berry J. QUESTIONS, SUGGESTED IMPROVEMENTS ==================================== If you have questions, problems with `pdfcrop', error reports, if you have improvements or want to have additional features, please send them to the author. My environment for developing and testing: * linux, SuSE 9.0 * perl v5.8.1 * pdfTeX 3.141592-1.40.x * Ghostscript 8.x K. KNOWN PROBLEMS ================= * pdfcrop relies on Ghostscript for the calculation of the Bounding Box. If Ghostscript returns wrong values or cannot process the pdf file, it sometimes helps to try another version of Ghostscript. * XeTeX (and pdfTeX < 1.10a) does not allow the setting of the PDF version in a direct way. Thus pdfcrop fixes the PDF version afterwards in the PDF header. Therefore XeTeX warnings as ** WARNING ** Version of PDF file (1.6) is newer than version limit specification. can be safely ignored.

Kodiak scores two goals, adds an assist in 3-1 semifinal win over Kent State
OXFORD, Ohio – Senior Jess Kodiak scored two goals and had a hand in all three to lead the top-seeded Miami University women's soccer team to a hard-fought 3-1 win over fourth-seeded Kent State in the semifinals of the Mid-American Conference Tournament Friday at Miami Soccer Field.
The host RedHawks (18-2-1, 10-0-1 MAC) advanced to Sunday's MAC championship game with the victory and extended their school-record unbeaten streak to 14 games. Kent State finishes the season 13-5-2 overall after going 7-3-1 in league play. Miami will play No. 2 seed Central Michigan at 1 p.m. for the MAC title as CMU edged Toledo, 1-0, in Friday's second semifinal. Miami beat the Chippewas, 1-0, in double overtime at CMU Oct. 19.
Kodiak (Naperville, Ill.) totaled five points in the match, her third five-point game of the season and one point shy of her career high, as she added an assist to go with her two goals. It was her sixth career multi-goal game, including fourth this season, as she now has a team-best 12 goals on the year and leads Miami with 34 points.
As was the case in Sunday's quarterfinal win over Ohio, the 'Hawks jumped in front quickly as junior Kayla Zakrzewski (London, Ont.) scored just 7:32 into the match to put Miami ahead. Kodiak and freshman Haley Walter (Cincinnati, Ohio) worked the ball up the field using a give-and-go that allowed Walter to send a low cross into the box, where Zakrzewski gathered the ball, turned and fired. Her shot was a laser into the upper corner of the goal from 10 yards out for her eighth tally of the year.
Miami nearly doubled its lead seven minutes later as Kodiak created a counter attack and sent a perfect pass to the feet of junior Katy Dolesh (Chardon, Ohio), who was in alone with the keeper on a breakaway. Dolesh struck the ball hard and past KSU keeper Stephanie Senn but the ball hit the post and bounced out, keeping the RedHawk lead at just one.
Although Miami held a 7-3 edge in shots at halftime and a one-goal advantage, play was relatively even as both sides earned a pair of corner kicks in the first 45 minutes. Redshirt sophomore goalkeeper Allison Norenberg (Palatine, Ill.) made two of her four saves in the first frame to keep the Golden Flashes off the board.
"I thought it was pretty typical of a MAC semifinal. It was very hard fought, very physical," head coach Bobby Kramig said. "The battle was in the midfield for the 50/50 balls. I didn't think we met that challenge as well as I would've liked us to in the first half, but I was very pleased with how they responded in the second half. They stepped up their game."
The RedHawks picked up the pressure out of the break and were able to double their lead in the 80th minute when Kodiak notched the first of her two goals on the day. Sophomore Kelsey Dinges (Smithton, Ill.) gathered an attempted clear just inside the box and sent a line drive toward goal that Kodiak deflected in front of the net and past Senn to put Miami up, 2-0.
Kent State did not go quietly however, as Brianna Bartolone buried a shot off a corner kick by Jaclyn Dutton in the 88th minute to cut the RedHawk advantage in half. Less than 40 seconds after KSU scored however, Kodiak put the game out of reach as she stole a bad pass from Senn to a KSU defender and was then taken down in the box earning a penalty kick. She drilled the penalty kick, Miami's first of the year, just under the crossbar to seal the 3-1 victory.
Miami finished with a 14-7 edge in shots and a 6-4 advantage on corner kicks. Senn totaled two saves in the match for KSU, both in the second half, while Dinges led Miami with six shots in the game.
Sunday's championship match at Miami Soccer Field will be streamed live through Miami All-Access on MURedHawks.com, while live stats will also be available for the contest. Tickets to Sunday's final are $10 for adults and $7 for children under 18 while students of MAC institutions can get in free with a student ID.
Miami will be making its sixth MAC Tournament championship appearance Sunday, its first since 2009, while the RedHawks last won the MAC Tournament in 2002. The winner of the MAC Tournament receives an automatic bid to the NCAA Tournament.
"I think about that game a lot and kind of regretting not giving a little more effort or anything," Kodiak said of the 2009 championship game, which Miami lost, 1-0, in her freshman year. "So to be back here and have a second chance is something I've been dreaming about and I can't wait for Sunday."

On Poetry
On Not Letting GoBy Caleb Crain
Probably no writer ever finishes a book without wishing he could keep it to himself. For one thing, a book is company, during the writing of it; it's hard to accept its departure. For another, a book is never free of flaws, its author being human. Poets have long been able to console themselves for the loss and the exposure by revising and republishing. Thus Whitman expanded, aggrandized, and eventually bloated Leaves of Grass; thus Wordsworth enlarged upon and finally diluted The Prelude. Some writers of fiction, too, have indulged themselves. Henry James returned to his early prose to render it more ineffable. Raymond Carver restored some of the fullness that a charismatic editor had cut from his early stories. Read More

Switches between political and administrative positions seem to be quite common in today's politics, or at least not so unusual any longer. Nevertheless, up-to-date empirical studies on this issue are lacking. This paper investigates the presumption, that in recent years top bureaucrats have become more politicised, while at the same time more politicians stem from a bureaucratic background, by looking at the career paths of both. For this purpose, we present new empirical evidence on career patterns of top bureaucrats and executive politicians both at Federal and at Länder level. The data was collected from authorized biographies published at the websites of the Federal and Länder ministries for all Ministers, Parliamentary State Secretaries and Administrative State Secretaries who held office in June 2009.
