Friendly Moroccan cooking classes in the elegant surroundings of Restaurant Riad Monceau Marrakech
The elegant and highly exclusive surroundings of Restaurant Riad Monceau provide a perfect setting for friendly Moroccan cooking classes affording enthusiasts – beginners as well as advanced – a chance to discover the secrets of some of the best Moroccan cuisine recipes in a professional but also genuinely relaxed and pleasant atmosphere.
Led by Rachida Sahnoune, the Riad Monceau’s chef, or one of her prime assistants, and held every morning in the restaurant kitchen itself, Moroccan cookery classes welcome very few participants in order to ensure a real ‘hands-on’ approach and encourage lively interaction between those taking part.
Each half-day Moroccan cooking course is an opportunity to learn how to prepare | – depending on the day – either an entree and a main course or a main course and a dessert. At the end of the session, the apprentice chefs sit down to enjoy their own creations in the magical setting of the Riad Monceau boutique hotel, one of the most luxury riads in the | [

(AP) Feinstein: Election year not ideal for gun debate
Sen. Dianne Feinstein says the nation needs to have a "sane" discussion on gun control and ban military-style assault weapons. But the California Democrat acknowledges that probably won't happen before the November election.
Feinstein tells "Fox News Sunday" that "people haven't rallied" in years because of the power and reach of the gun lobby, and that with the election looming, "it's a bad time to embrace a new subject."

Chancellor George Osborne faced demands to step in and use the Government’s 82% stake in the bank to stop taxpayers forking out for bonuses

MMA Roundtable: Overeem's Future, Lombard's Debut, Hendo vs. Jones
Apr 25, 2012 - For a UFC non-event week, there is plenty going on in the world of MMA, some of it good, some of it very bad. From Alistair Overeem's fighting future, to Hector Lombard's move to the UFC, to Dan Henderson's chances of unseating Jon Jones, several of the big names are making the news.
One name we won't be debating? Dr. Hector Oscar Molina, who wants us to believe that he knowingly injected a man he knew was a professional athlete with testosterone, and felt no need to tell said man about it. Worse yet, apparently he's not being held liable by this pro athlete, because, according to Overeem, there was no "ill will" in his actions.
While those two consider new careers in the bridge-selling business, Luke Thomas and I move on, gather around the old roundtable and get to some serious MMA questions.
1. After today's NSAC ruling, will the UFC cut Alistair | Overeem?
Thomas: If the UFC or more specifically Dana White had intentions of cutting Overeem, they'd likely have done it by now. It's not often White takes prolonged periods of time to deliberate those sorts of decisions. Typically he knows whether they're in or out. It's true in the case of Nate Marquardt he waited until the commission couldn't clear him to fight, but even then White knew that decision was the line in the sand. Either Marquardt was going to be cleared or he wasn't. If he wasn't, he was out. | [

‘Did you win the lottery?”
That’s what Liron Amsellem’s friends asked when the 29-year-old photographer confessed to hiring a personal stylist.
As far as they were concerned, if she wasn’t hitting a red carpet, such an investment was frivolous. But Amsellem’s not-so-stylish go-to outfit — jeans, black shirt and ill-fitting blazer — told her otherwise.
“People don’t understand that if you can’t do it yourself, you need someone to help you to put outfits together,” she says.

Langer, Matthias and Woracek, H. (2011) A function space model for canonical systems. Acta Scientiarum Mathematicarum, 77 (1-2). pp. 101-165.
Recently, a generalization to the Pontryagin space setting of the notion of canonical (Hamiltonian) systems which involves a finite number of inner singularities has been given. The spectral theory of indefinite canonical systems was investigated with help of an operator model. This model consists of a Pontryagin space boundary triple and was constructed in an abstract way. Moreover, the construction of this operator model involves a procedure of splitting-and-pasting which is technical but at the present stage of development in general inevitable. In this paper we provide an isomorphic form of this operator model which acts in a | finite-dimensional extension of a function space naturally associated with the given indefinite canonical system. We give explicit formulae for the model operator and the boundary relation. Moreover, we show that under certain asymptotic hypotheses the procedure of splitting-and-pasting can be avoided by employing a limiting process. We restrict attention to the case of one singularity. This is the core of the theory, and by making this restriction we can significantly reduce the technical | [

COPENHAGEN (Reuters) - Denmark wants Microsoft to pay $1 billion in back taxes in one of the biggest tax cases in the country's history, local media reported on Monday.
The Danish tax authority is in negotiations with Microsoft over unpaid taxes stemming from the $1.88 billion takeover of Danish software company Navision in 2002, Danish Radio DR said, quoting unnamed sources.
The tax authority claims Microsoft sold the rights to Navision's successful business planning software, now under the name of Dynamics NAV, at below market value to a subsidiary in Ireland, DR said.
As | a result the tax authority is claiming 5.8 billion crowns in back taxes and interest from sales of Dynamics NAV, the public service radio broadcaster said.

State Senator Verdell Jackson (R – HD 5) has never been one to let facts stand in the way of good legislation. A couple of years ago, Verdell said, “he’s spent four years reading about climate change but hasn’t come across “an experiment using the scientific method” that demonstrates that carbon dioxide contributes to it.”
Now, Verdell has bewilderingly taken offense with the Reserved Water Rights Compact between the Salish and Kootenai Tribes and the State of Montana. For a dozen years, the CSKT, the State of Montana and Federal regulators have been working on an agreement to protect the rights of existing water rights holders and address water rights and adjudication on the Flathead Indian Reservation. Since 1996, water rights on the reservation have been tied up due to uncertainties in the existing law. Since that time, there has been no legal way to obtain water rights inside reservation boundaries. Through a series of grueling negotiations over many years, the Compact Commission has worked out a provisional agreement that is fair to all parties. At the last minute, Verdell wants to step in and extend the argument for several more years for no perceptible reason.
In an op-ed in the Kalispell | Daily Inter Lake on Jan. 20, Jackson makes several claims that are based entirely on fiction.
To put it simply, this compact will likely make it impossible to obtain any new surface water rights and will restrict wells located close to surface water in Western Montana along with limiting many existing water rights of irrigators. New home sites and large building projects may not get a viable amount of water.
Put simply, this entire claim is bunk. The compact does not affect any water rights | [

The way i think about it is you don know where the clothes have been (on the floor, in the hands of someone who didn wash them after leaving the RR, ect.) so it better to be safe than sorry. hope | this helps :)
I washed some of my daughter's clothes, but not all of them. My rule was that if I knew where they came from, and that it was a well-kept place, I probably didn't absolutely need to wash them. I asked a former coworker her opinion and she said the same thing. I think it's all about your comfort level--if you don't think the clothes need to be washed they're probably fine.

A method and apparatus for isolating a noise intolerant device, e.g., a phase-lock loop of a tuner within a television receiver, from source of noise. In one embodiment, the apparatus isolates a phase-lock loop integrated circuit (IC) from the bus, by providing an isolation buffer that allows the receiver to only pass data to the tuner's phase-lock loop IC when a tune command is issued by a processor. When not being tuned, the IIC lines to the tuner are held HIGH by a buffer until needed again to perform | the tuning function. This allows the demodulation circuitry to use a setting for a carrier tracking-loop that optimizes bit error rate performance.

Monsanto Canada recently reported that the Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA) has granted approval for its latest GM offering, the intriguingly named "refuge in a bag" Bt corn. With all the hype surrounding GM crops, it would be easy to dismiss this announcement as just another piece of press puff from the GM giant. But unfortunately this new development is actually something we need to keep a close eye on. As we have come to expect, the government has let the GM community police itself, leaving the companies that are peddling the new technology to regulate its use.
First, it is important to understand what a "refuge" is when it comes to GM crops. Despite the fact that Animal Welfare Approved has blogged extensively on the many drawbacks and dangers of GM technology, the concept of "refuge" actually relates to a problem that we haven't covered in detail before -- namely the inevitable development of pest resistance to GM crops.
The requirement for a "refuge" arose because it is widely accepted that pest insects will, over time, develop resistance to the crops that have been | genetically modified to poison them. One would logically expect that if you expose a large number of pests to a single pesticide year after year, the survivors will eventually breed, leading in time to the emergence of a resistant population. This same process happens with GM crops -- it's simply that the GM crop has been genetically modified to express the thuringiensis (Bt) insecticide within its plant tissues, rather than the farmer spraying it on to the crops to control the | [

John Willis, 13, was diagnosed with anaplastic large cell lymphoma in January 2011 after complaining for months that his arm was hurting. He underwent treatment and for the last 18 months has been in remission.
The foundation is sending John, along with his parents, Sam and Lisa Willis, and his sixth-grade, brother Ethan Willis, to Costa Rica during the first week of January to see a volcano, participate in a cave tour, and go whitewater rafting and fishing.
“I was surprised,” said the teenager, who said he got a little suspicious of the surprise when his principal mentioned Make-A-Wish on the morning announcements.
John Willis asked to see a volcano because he thought it would be cool.
“I don’t think I’ve ever really seen one in person,” he said.
His mother said they chose to make the announcement at the school because they have been so supportive during her son’s illness and recovery.
Teachers helped get his schoolwork sent to Children’s Hospital of Atlanta, where John Willis was being treated, and helped him in the classroom when he returned to school bald and only weighing about 60 pounds.
“They created such a warm and personal environment | ,” Lisa Willis said. “The tribute is to the school, foundations, hospitals and people who are changing the outlook of cancer from something to be ashamed of to something one can brag about.”
John’s father is scheduled to return from a 10-month deployment in Afghanistan just before Christmas day, so Lisa Willis said the trip’s timing could not have been better.
“We’ve been going through two basically traumas in our family, cancer and then having a father leave for a year,” she said. | [

FDA has lifted a clinical hold preventing Helix BioiPharma from starting a Phase II/III study evaluating its topical interferon alpha-2b product in the treatment of low cervical intraepithelial neoplasia. The agency’s go-ahead for the trial followed a review of the firm’s complete response submission to the hold, which it filed in mid October. However, Ontario-based Helix says it doesn’t have the financial resources to continue development of the product on its own, and will need to find a strategic partner both the pivotal U.S. study, and a planned Phase III European study can be initiated.
Helix’ topical interferon alpha-2b candidate is formulated using the firm’s Biphasix™ platform to encapsulate the drug in biphasic lipid vesicles. The planned double-blind vehicle-controlled study in the U.S. aims to evaluate treatment using topical interferon alpha-2b in about 492 premenopausal women with histologically confirmed CIN 1 or CIN 2 lesions and high-risk HPV infection.
Enrolled patients will self-administer either topical interferon alpha-2b or control using a vaginal applicator, over a 10–14 week period | .

Lessons from the Rise and (Possible) Fall of Chinese Township-Village Enterprises
University of Minnesota Law School
William and Mary Law Review, Vol. 45
The success of Chinese township-village enterprises (TVEs) poses a puzzle for a property rights approach to the theory of the firm, since no one really holds well-defined, transferable property rights to control and claim the residual profits of TVEs. TVEs also pose a second puzzle: in the last five or seven years, they have started to experience serious problems, despite reforms which have improved TVEs from a property rights perspective. This paper takes ideas from property rights and institutional approaches to economics and examines whether those ideas can help explain both of these puzzles. As to the first puzzle, reforms in the seventies and eighties created product market competition and gave local governmental officials and TVE managers enough of a stake in the | success of the enterprises to encourage investment in them. TVEs were less imperfect than their leading alternatives, state-owned enterprises and private enterprises, the latter of which faced much discrimination. As to the second puzzle, although property rights reforms have improved TVE performance, reforms reducing the discrimination against private enterprises have made them more attractive.

Despite best intentions, holiday gifts always end up as a rushed, last-minute affair. What with the endless waffling over precisely what to make and share, there ends up being little time to actually bake, wrap, and ship those treats off so that they arrive before the appointed holidays have passed.

Bank of America has announced the launch of the Credit Card Clarity Commitment(TM), a one-page summary of customers' rates, fees, and payment information.
"Bank of America is investing more in our customers and our future," says Brian T. Moynihan, Bank of America Consumer, Small Business Banking, and Card Services president. "We are delivering simplicity and choice across our products and services that will
help our customers better manage their finances. In the end, when our customers succeed, we will succeed."
I'm not entirely convinced that Bank of America needed to trade mark | its committment to customer clarity since the job is already being done for it by a legion of disgruntled customers and former staff in social media circles.
For an insider's view on Bank of America's application of rates and fees I'd suggest that potential customers instead tune into this eloquent YouTube vide:
Why Bank of America fired me, from Jackie Ramos who reports back from a six-month stint in the bank's 'customer assistance' (ie collections) department.

Khieu Samphan, third from left in 1973 and flanked by the royal couple. In his memoir Sihanouk has only good things to say about Samphan, partly because the latter gifted him a radio set to tune into Voice of America and other external broadcasts during his house arrest in Phnom Penh (School of Vice).
Royal Seal of Approval
In 1965, Prince Norodom Sihanouk, Cambodia’s head of state, asserted the nation’s opposition to the U.S.-backed government in South Vietnam by allowing North Vietnamese guerrillas to set up bases within Cambodia’s borders. The North Vietnamese had an alliance with a Cambodian Marxist insurgency group, the Khmer Rouge, whose top brass Sihanouk is pictured here with in 1973. (Fed up with always being made to pose for the camera, a youthful Princess Monique lost her royal patience and opted to stand behind it for a change! – SoV) Courtesy of Time Magazine/AFP.
Sihanouk held a lengthy press conference at the UN shortly following his release | from his house arrest, leading the British journalist and author, William Shawcross, to muse that short press conferences were not his style! At one point the former Prince declared ”I support the Khmer Rouge!
“, only for Monique to interject: ”No, you condemn the Khmer Rouge

The Small Business & Entrepreneurship Council recently announced that the latest version of the Senate health care bill continues to ignore the plight of U.S. small businesses, and instead burdens them with additional taxes and regulations that will drive business costs even higher.
“Rather than moving in a direction that heeds the concerns of small business, the Senate health bill imposes an even higher tax burden on our sector while retaining other tax, regulatory and compliance measures that will drive business and health coverage costs higher,” said SBE Council President & CEO Karen Kerrigan.
According to SBE Council, the “manager’s amendment” put forward by Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid raises the Medicare payroll tax higher (from 0.5 percent to 0.9 percent), and exposes small businesses in the construction industry to a punishing employer mandate that will cripple this already hurting sector. The bill singles out the construction industry by not exempting businesses in this sector from the “play-or-pay” employer mandate that other firms with 50 or fewer employees are exempt from (although it does exempt construction firms with five employees or less). The latest Reid bill also increases the individual mandate penalty/tax, which will hit the self | -employed, and maintains an array of other tax hikes and regulatory requirements that will drive up the cost of health coverage for small business.
Kerrigan said changes to the tax credits aimed toward helping small business are too insignificant to outweigh the cumulative cost load of the overall bill.
“The changes that were added to mollify small business concerns are too minuscule and complex,” said Kerrigan.
SBE Council has urged the Senate to start the legislative process over, and include small business reforms within the core bill. The group has long | [

tl;dr – PSA about PHP5 visibility and it having the potential to change what we love about WordPress. Ergo: use it correctly.

Public anger over big society-related cuts interrupts first gathering
The tour was announced earlier this year as part of the government's big society agenda. It was hoped the 12 events planned would give people the opportunity to discuss what could be done locally.

Spicy Orange Chicken Recipe (Crockpot, GFCF)
I’ll admit it: I crave junk food from time to time. Lately, what has been haunting my wishful ponderings has been the sickly sweet orange chicken dish, found at “fast casual” Chinese restaurants, like Panda Express. I last had Panda’s orange chicken more than ten years ago, and I still remember… If there was a gluten-free version sold somewhere, I’d probably gobble it up. So, perhaps it’s best for my sugar-intake that I haven’t found it anywhere.

Over the weekend, La Velle E. Neal III confirmed that the Twins were interested in bringing in switch-hitting first baseman Tony Clark. Clark has spent the past 3 seasons with the Arizona Diamondbacks where he hit 53 home runs in 702 at bats (one every 13.3 at bats). His 53 home runs isn't bad, neither is his slugging percentages of.546 over the last 3 seasons. The big problem with Clark is his.266 average and fairly low on base percentage that raises concern.
At 35 years old, he is likely to only be seeking a one or two year deal with a salary of somewhere between $1-2 Million annually. He will likely only be candidate to fill in at designated hitter. Historically speaking, this is a Twins-like signing (older vet, cheaper salary, dwind | ling career), but I'm hoping that new GM Bill Smith is just bluffing and doesn't actually find Clark to be a possible signing.

A STRIKER with Studley FC has been jailed for 16 months after attacking a man in a nightclub leaving him needing extensive reconstructive surgery.
Nathan Edgington pleaded guilty at Warwick Crown Court to inflicting grievous bodily harm on victim Billy Warnock.
The court heard how the 21-year-old, of Binley Close in Solihull, was in Smack nightclub in Leamington in the early hours of Sunday, July 29 last year when for no apparent reason Edgington began tapping Mr Warnock several times to the face and nose before being told to go away.
Later inside the club Edgington grabbed the victim held him against a wall by his throat and punched him, knocking him to the floor, then while he was down he and two other people kicked Mr Warnock a numerous times.
The attack left Mr Warnock with a displaced fracture to his right eye socket and a flattening of the | cheekbone. He had to undergo surgery during which titanium plates and false bone were used to repair the damage to his face, and he has been left with continuing numbness to his cheek.
Stefan Kolodynski, defending, said Edgington’s family’s home had been used as security for the family business which got into financial difficulties in 2011.

Google Trusted Stores, Great Potential?
Search Engine Land just published some news on Google’s new “Trusted Stores”.
At first glance I thought “Wow cool, looking out for the consumers!” which is something we do need, and it’s certainly a welcome gesture from Google. In fact Trusted Stores is a great idea all around, nearly. There’s only one problem I can see in my little crystal ball, and that’s only if I’ve read and understood it right.
This is the bit I’m talking about:
“To qualify as a Trusted Store etailers must apply and voluntarily provide a range of data to Google. Google believes getting data directly from online retailers is more reliable than doing | consumer surveys.
Trusted Stores must have a track record of on-time shipping and reliable customer service. Regarding customer service in particular, the etailer must have a history of quick resolution of consumer problems and issues.”
Now, I “think” that’s saying stores need to already have something to prove their reliability and customer satisfaction before getting on to the program. Right? Or is it saying that anyone can join and Google will use its own data to check these things, and then after a while you get the badge if you’ve proven | [
