What is SIEM?
An event management solution must collate data from antivirus software, firewalls, hosts, servers,database servers, web filtering systems, switches, and virtually every other computing infrastructure asset. The system must analyse the aggregated data to detect patterns, correlation of events, and identify anomalous behaviour that can be acted on automatically or passed on to security teams forfurther analysis.
The alerts and reports generated by the event management system must flow to all security staff tasked to analyse them. At the same time, such events must flow to automated security control management systems to help maintain systems of compliance as well as developing response.
Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) solutions are evolving towards more dynamic and automated Data Analytics Platforms.
To realize the value of this trend, significant investments of human capital and money are required to modernize the SIEM, but doing so will produce significant gains in productivity, risk assessment, threat hunting, and trend analysis.
SIEM also acts as the foundation of orchestration initiatives as well as the centralized information store for a variety of data analytics projects.Over the last decades, security information and event management (SIEM) adoption has increased significantly, driven largely by complex and challenging compliance requirements such as Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS) and Sarbanes–Oxley (SOX). Threats can be identified quickly and reacted correctly before attackers are Capable of causing material damage.
As adoption increased, SIEM’s value in providing and leveraging threat intelligence was quickly realized by companies, giving visibility to known threats around the world and the ability to identify and track potential threats as they occur. This awareness of the situation enables businesses to identify attacks earlier and, as a result, take action to minimize the impact of the advanced threats today.
- SIEM can be utilized to detect insider and external threats, including threats to cloud identities, unknown/unmanaged device detection, and other cloud security activity and event monitoring.
- Advanced detection with machine learning and artificial intelligence will need to be adaptable to respond to new and emerging cyber threats and attacks. It will also be important for data analytics and AI to be utilized in an ethical manner.
- There are a variety of threat vectors in the “Cloud Security” that require robust security protections and mitigations to protect against cyber-attacks and data breaches. The SIEM provides monitoring facilities for such problems by the use of machine learning and artificial intelligence and other SIEM functions to meet future state business needs.
As the business continues to move towards automation, cloud environments, and machine learning,the SIEM’s requirements and related business value will continue to increase. All aspects of the business must understand this need and make the necessary human and financial investments to ensure continuous development and capability maturation of “SIEM”.

Today we’d like to introduce you to Silvia Gallini.
Silvia, please share your story with us. How did you get to where you are today?
I came to LA as a young adult to study film, and while I was doing my MFA in film directing, I stumbled by total chance upon a great art mentor, Joe Blaustein. It’s Joe who first told me I was an artist, and that I had to pursue drawing and painting.
He also said I was the greatest pain in the ass he’d ever seen! That was because I was so hard on myself and hated everything that appeared on the page (I pretty much still do, btw). In Italy, where I am from, making art as a way of life seemed completely impossible. I come from a materialist family where money is the guiding principle of life choices. Neither one of my parents realized I was an artist and treated me as a very odd non-dentist.
Flash forward 14 years, Joe is now 97 years old and he is still my mentor. I have made a feature documentary about him, about his story, his students, and the power of making mistakes in life and in art. It is called “The Dog and the Duck” and I am sending it out to festivals this summer of 2020.
I also have a beautiful art studio in Mid-City LA that is also a gallery and a shop. As I kept painting and bitchin’ over the years, I realized that my encounter with paints was a life-long love affair and that I’d better find a way to pay my bills with this passion. Yes – paying my bills with this passion sounded like a brilliant idea! But how? What happened in the last decade is nothing short of a miraculous journey to me… The main characters are: a magic chef, a tame zebra-finch, a number of talking chickens, my elder wizard mentor Joe of course, a Finnish art fairy, a couple of witches, an army of students of Italian and a black pug.
All of these combined with a magical weekly market called The Melrose Trading Post and the appearance of Studio Pico (in stages: first a wall, then two walls, then the whole thing) brought me to where I am today. Which is still in the middle of the journey.
We’re always bombarded by how great it is to pursue your passion, etc – but we’ve spoken with enough people to know that it’s not always easy. Overall, would you say things have been easy for you?
The truth is that the hardest part for me is and has been believing in myself, especially at the very beginning when there was little evidence that I could accomplish anything at all: I have struggled many years with creative blocks and with being a “blocked artist”.
I cannot say that from when I decided to become a professional artist things went super smooth: of course it was and it is hard (in no way I consider myself accomplished yet!). For some years, I participated to all the art fairs in Los Angeles, setting up my booth and tables at dawn amongst complete strangers in the circus-like setting of art fairs and waiting for clients. For years, every time someone stopped to ask me about my work my voice would tremble and I would sell myself short out of fear. Often, very often I made very few sales or just enough to pay for the booth. I accumulated credit card debt to buy display equipment and pay for the art fairs. My boyfriend loaned me the money to buy my first two foldable tables! I remember how abundant I felt when I had my own tables to display my work on! Looking back (and it as only a few years ago) now I can see how those were times of hardship, but all along I had my students of Italian who supported me and my dreams, and I kept following the little leads I found on the way.
I ran on faith alone for some years!
I have also been blessed with true Fairy Godmothers and Wizard Godfathers along the way, and they were and are always there to give me the little push I need to go forward in the journey.
Please tell us more about your art.
I love painting and my art clients buy my love: it is right there on the canvas for everyone to see. I also love animals, the natural world and human faces. I suppose this evokes the same love and appreciation in those who like my work. I believe that a painting is not just an aesthetic object: it encapsulates a whole life philosophy, right there on that little colorful surface.
Therefore, painting is a little bit of magic that one can buy and bask into every day. The power of the message, of colors, of this love, keeps glowing out of the painting. Many of my clients become friends and we establish a relationship with regular visits: the artwork in itself is only the beginning of this relationship. They become supporters, mentors, mentees… We travel together.
Thanks to this day and age, I am able to create art products from many of my paintings. The first and most luxurious product I have made has been the silk scarves made on Lake Como by my Godfather’s silk printing company. I called that the “Make Mistakes” scarf and I first produced it to support my documentary “The Dog and the Duck”. Many more silk scarves and draperies came after, with giant cats, my zebra finch, magic toads, and more are on their way. I have a beautiful project of making kaftans with a friend of mine who is a fashion expert.
Along the way, I have experimented with many more products: today I sell greeting cards, art prints and posters, leggings, tote bags, ceramic tiles, and also some jewelry that I make, and more. It was always my dream to have an emporium of art products!
Has luck played a meaningful role in your life and business?
Good luck has always played a huge role in my life and business. Messages literally drop on my lap, appear on billboards, in books, in the sky. Whenever I am searching for an answer, it eventually comes and so generously. Whenever I need a specific amount to pay my bills by a certain date, that amount comes in, always!
People are the greatest blessing in my life: I have had a tremendous amount of support from fellow artists and my students. I love to teach and for many years, I have taught Italian, and I still do. My Italian students became friends and then come to my art shows and support my art too. Now I love to teach art as well, and I believe that anyone can have fun painting and can learn to express herself with art.
Every time I step into my studio/gallery, I remember how amazingly lucky I am to not only have found this place but to have been able to keep it for over two years. I was initially just renting one wall, and that was a big step into the unknown for me because it was already over my budget. Then how I came to rent the whole place is entirely a story of luck combined with magic!

REDMOND, Wash. -- (KCPQ) -- Four months after a Redmond woman was beaten and choked by a stranger while walking her dog on a trail near Marymoor Park, King County detectives are still working to identify the suspect.
Crime Stoppers and an anonymous friend of the woman are offering a $10,000 reward for information that leads to an arrest.
“You're a victim when it's happening and then afterwards, you choose how to go forward and I go forward as a survivor,” said 'Lisa'. We are protecting her identity for her safety because the suspect is still on the loose.
The attack happened on Friday, August 5th around 7pm. She describes the suspect as white, with a medium build, in his mid-40's with VERY blue eyes and a tattoo on one arm.
The attacker hit her in the head and then dragged her into the bushes, dislocating her elbow. “I'm yelling as loud as I can so then instead of pounding my head he started to strangle me to try to shut me up,” said Lisa.

The Australian Electoral Commission appears to be taking tentative steps towards having electronic vote scanning and counting at the next general election. The Commission has called for requests for expressions of interest (REI) for companies to provide advice on ballot paper scanning and counting technology to use in the House of Representatives ballot in the 2016 general election but the technology would not be used widely, instead being run as a pilot project in a handful of polling booths. The REI is at pains to point out: “this is not a request for tender. The AEC intends to initiate a multi-stage procurement process for the required services. “The AEC would appreciate advice from the market regarding the minimum number of tabulators to provide a reasonable (cost effective) pilot.”
Some Australian states already use electronic vote counting and electronic voting to some degree. The ACT has used electronic vote counting, which tallies electronic votes and paper ballots, since the 2001 election. By the 2008 election the ACT employed an intelligent character recognition scanning system to capture preferences on paper ballots, alongside intensive manual checking for accuracy.
Victoria uses electronic voting for its parliamentary elections and NSW trialled it for remote and visually impaired voters at the last election – as has Tasmania – and the AEC itself used it for military personnel overseas and for visually impaired voters in 2007.
Government News spoke to the Managing Director of Software Improvements Carol Boughton, whose company manages the software for electronic voting in ACT, about what the Commission’s call for REI into electronic vote scanning and counting might mean.

Andante Extra Virgin Olive Oil
Andante Extra Virgin Olive Oil (EVOO) is made from olives grown on the Wêreldsgeluk Olive Estate, owned by Willie and Lisa Duminy’s family trust. The farm is situated near Porterville, about 130 km North-East of Cape Town, in the scenic Western foothills of the Winterhoek mountains.
Cultivation, harvest timing, and milling are directed at producing the finest premium quality EVOO, with a focus on complex, harmonious flavors, and maximizing bisphenols and mono-unsaturated fats for their extraordinary culinary and health benefits.
Farming practices are ethical, sustainable, and natural where possible. Mulches and composts are used in conjunction with selected fertilizers to promote soil life and health. Pest control is by integrated pest management (IPM). Potential pest populations are monitored, and controlled by wasps, spiders, and other natural predators, rather than indiscriminate poisons. Pesticides are avoided and have not been used since 2006. Drip irrigation is used for responsible and precise water management.
A modern two-phase MORI-TEM “Cultivar” mill, renowned for top quality oil production, is used. All EVOO is cold-extracted. No artificial additives are used, and opportunities for unwanted oxidation avoided. Immediate filtration achieves a balance between optimal purification, and maximum flavor and bisphenol preservation.
The first trees were planted in March 2006, and there are now 36 hectares under cultivation in an intensive system, with about 35 000 trees of 8 cultivars.
Berghoff has four self-catering chalets: Erica, Disa, and Barbi on Berghoff itself and Klipspringer on the adjacent farm, Osdam. The chalets are situated on our commercial protea farms in the picturesque Olifantsrivier mountains above the town of Porterville. We welcome nature lovers and ask that all visitors please treat the area with respect. The chalets have situated some distance from one another, and guests are requested to keep music and noise to a minimum as most people visit our chalets to relax. We encourage mountain biking along the farm roads and hiking in the veld. The dam on Berghoff is perfectly suited for swimming and boating – a rowing boat and two canoes are available on the dam for use by our guests. Because of the altitude, we are substantially cooler than below the mountain, and even summer nights can sometimes be chilly. We have high rainfall in the winter months, and occasional snow – perfect for a fireplace, red wine, and a good book – although sunny winter’s days are abundant. In summer the sun can be harsh due to the altitude and sunblock is highly recommended.
Tygerkloof Distillery, the home of GINSMITH GINS is just over 2 hours from Cape Town.
Gin Tastings and Tapas are an easy to reach destination and can form part of an interesting and adventurous day out.
Our beautiful fynbos farm, which is home to the Tygerkloof Distillery, is high in the mountains bordering on the Grootwinterhoek Wilderness Area. This area is accessed just north of Porterville via the Dasklip Pass (famous for paragliding), with breath taking views extending from Table Mountain to the West Coast village of St Helena Bay.
The last kilometre of road up to the distillery is a track which can be driven with an ordinary sedan, slowly and carefully. A SUV or equivalent is recommended.

Houdconstant Farm is home to garagiste Fan Olivier. A wide variety of produce is harvested on the farm including grapes, pomegranates, and citrus ad vegetables. The farm is also a processing plant for the power of fruits, pomegranates, and dragon fruit. The fruit is sourced from the area and the pips and juice exported to the ISA and UK. Fan’s latest addition to his crops is lemongrass- an increasingly popular ingredient of modern dietary preferences. Figs and other seasonal vegetables from the surrounding farms are packaged on the farm. The farm also specializes in producing barrels of fermented wine. During harvesting season (February) visitors can see how barrel-fermented wine is produced according to the old ways with a vintage winepress.
Kaap Agri had its origins when a few farmers in the Swartland decided to jointly buy guano (bird manure) to use as fertilizer. This led to formally establishing De Westelike Graanboeren Koörporatiewe Vereniging in 1912. Over the years the company expanded with a branch and silo network in the Swartland and the Boland. From 1930 to 1950 various other cooperatives were established in neighboring towns and areas. They all basically delivered the same functions as Wesgraan. In 1981 the first large amalgamation took place when Western Province Fruitgrowers and Wesgraan joined forces to form WP (Koörperatief) Beperk. Since then further amalgamations have taken place with Drakenstein Vrugtekwekers and Wynland Koöperasie.
In 1995 WP (Koörporatief) was converted to a public company, WPK Landbou Beperk. This was the first of the former cooperatives that converted from a cooperative to a company. In the meantime, Porterville Landboukoöperasie and Noord-Boland Koörporasie amalgamated to form Boland Agri. The current Kaap Agri had its origins when WPK and Boland Agri amalgamated in 2005.
Today the Kaap Agri area of operation includes the Swartland, Boland, Wynland, Overberg, Langkloof, Namaqualand, Orange River, Sundays River Valley, Namibia, and the areas in between, as well as Limpopo, Mpumalanga, and Gauteng. Therefore Kaap Agri’s area of operation in Southern Africa.

What is the best way to cook ribs in the oven?
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Bake ribs in a baking dish in the preheated oven for 1 hour. Spread sauce over ribs and return to oven; bake until sauce bubbles and ribs are tender, 1 hour.
What temp do I cook ribs on?
According to USDA, ribs are “done” when they are 145°F internal temp, but they may still be tough.
If you take them up to 190 to 203°F, the collagens and fats melt at this temp and make the meat more tender and juicy.
Then they’re ready!
How long does it take to cook ribs at 180?
6 to 8 hours
How long does it take to cook ribs at 275?
Cook ribs at 275 degrees for approximately two hours, flipping the ribs after one hour. After two hours, place each rack of ribs individually BONE SIDE UP on (separate) large sheets of tin foil and wrap tightly (no leaks). Double wrap if necessary to prevent or cover any punctures in the foil.
How long does it take to cook spare ribs at 250 degrees?
Cook the ribs: At 250 degrees, place the ribs wrapped securely in tin foil onto a cookie sheet (sometimes juice/fat can escape the tin foil) and place them in the oven. cook for 2 hours. After 2 hours, pull them out and open the tin foil to take a look.
Do ribs get more tender the longer they cook?
The ribs are then further cooked on the grill or in the oven, usually with a sauce. Some recipes simmer the ribs longer, such as for an hour. This will greatly reduce the cooking time on the grill, and the long simmer will soften the connective tissue of the meat, resulting in much more tender ribs.
Should I wrap my ribs in aluminum foil?
Wrapping the meat in foil will limit the amount of smoke on the surface of the meat thus yielding a better color and flavor on the final product. It also adds moisture and speeds up cooking time. Wrapping should be done about half way through the cooking process or when internal meat temp is 150-160 degrees.
Can you overcook ribs in oven?
As others have stated, you should keep them wrapped or covered the length they are in the oven. I’ll usually wrap them tight in foil and cook in a pan for 2-2.5 hrs at 275* F. Then throw them on the grill for 5 minutes per side. If it’s falling off the bone and it’s a little dry, they’re overcooked.
Why are my pork ribs tough?
Why Your Ribs Turned Out Dry and Chewy
But when you first buy them, raw ribs — whether they are baby back, spareribs, or St. If your ribs are chewy, you either forgot to remove the membrane from the back of the ribs or you didn’t cook them long enough. If your ribs are dry, you likely cooked them too hot and fast.
Why do ribs take so long to cook?
Because the meat comes from the loin, baby backs tend to cook more quickly than other ribs. Because of this, spare ribs take longer to cook than baby backs, but are more tender and have more flavor.

Nintendo discusses releases for fiscal year ending March 2022
Nintendo touched on its upcoming slate of releases during its financial results call today.
New Pokemon Snap just came out on April 30. On the horizon are Miitopia, Game Builder Garage, and Mario Golf: Super Rush. There’s also the upcoming launch of the blue Switch Lite.
Nintendo said the following today:
We plan to launch these main products for the first quarter of the fiscal year ending March 2022.
For hardware, we will launch a new blue color Nintendo Switch Lite on May 21. The addition of blue makes five color options for Nintendo Switch Lite, the dedicated handheld gaming system that integrates the controllers with the device and is compact, lightweight, and easy to carry around.
For software, on April 30 we released New Pokémon Snap, an entirely original Pokémon Snap title, in which the playerʻs goal is to complete a Pokémon Photodex by taking pictures of wild Pokémon. We will follow that up with Miitopia, a game in which you can freely cast Mii, which resemble the player, in various roles in your own personal adventure. This title will be released on May 21 at the same time as Nintendo Switch Lite – Blue. Then, on June 11, we will release Game Builder Garage, which was just announced this morning. This title helps to expose players to computational thinking through the fun experience of creating a game. Even without any special knowledge, players can create games just by connecting characters called “Nodon” according to the guidance. We think that not only children but also those who have never had an interest in programming will enjoy creating games and feel a sense of accomplishment. And on June 25, we’ll be releasing the latest entry in the Mario Golf series, Mario Golf: Super Rush, in which you can easily enjoy an authentic game of golf. In addition to the series’ more familiar elements, we’ve added new game modes like “Speed Golf,” where you race through the course to be the fastest to get your ball in the hole.

Key Issues / New Models of Health Care / Power Point
The Colorado Health Access Survey – the CHAS – is the premier source of information on health insurance coverage, access to health care and use of health care services in Colorado. Findings from the 2015 CHAS, released September 1, 2015, give a detailed picture of Colorado’s changing health landscape.
The Colorado Health Institute (CHI) brought together a group of leading experts from insurance companies, hospital systems, nonprofit health plans, local health providers and academia on January 19 to discuss the problem, identify potential solutions and devise strategies to measure policy changes or other interventions.
Presentations from the Colorado Hospital Association's 2014 Rural Hospital Conference.
CHI pieced together a ground-level view of Colorado's long-term services and supports (LTSS) system, illustrating how confusing and frustrating it can be to navigate. Understanding the system is the first step in the process for state leaders to make it more efficient and effective.
As Medicaid costs escalate, decision makers are evaluating waivers and block grants as a potential coverage option that offers greater flexibility.
Health care expenditures have risen dramatically over the past several decades, yet a number of options are being discussed to help mitigate these costs.
Faced with historic Medicaid caseloads and costs, Colorado launched the Accountable Care Collaborative (ACC) in 2011 to reform how care is delivered and paid for in the Medicaid program. But has the ACC helped to improve health outcomes and lower costs?

Soup may be of humble origins, but when it's made well, it's a dish with integrity and a multitude of virtues to recommend it.
I always will remember my first bowl of "genuine" soup after years of mom's store-bought varieties. It was a heavenly clam chowder thick with cream, salt pork and potatoes, judiciously seasoned with fresh thyme.
It was memorable - and laden with more than a day's generous allotment of calories. I've since learned, though, that soup has many faces. Clear soups with chunky vegetables and meats can be comforting and relatively fat-free. Pureed vegetable soups and bean soups needn't contain butter, cream or fatback to be satisfying.
Indeed, soup might just be the perfect diet food; it's filling and tasty even without the caloric embellishments often called for in traditional recipes. If you love soup, take heart. There are techniques to reduce fat and calories in your recipes.
While there's no doubt that homemade stocks add a special depth of flavor to soups, don't abandon a dish altogether because you lack the ultimate-tasting broth. Besides, no one will notice a weak stock in a full-flavored, hearty soup spiced with hefty doses of herbs and seasonings.
But if the soup contains few ingredients and must stand on the merits of its broth, it's best to set aside time to make the stock from scratch. A little experimenting in the kitchen with canned and homemade stocks will allow cooks to make an educated judgment about which will work best for each soup.
Cooks shouldn't forget, either, that the world of stock is larger than veal, chicken or beef. Vegetable, seafood or garlic stocks can be made in 30 minutes to an hour, require few ingredients and are superior to canned broths. These simple stocks are best made on a lazy day, then stored in the freezer until needed.
In a pinch, the flavor of canned broths can be buoyed by simmering them for 15 minutes with a dash of wine, a few peppercorns, thyme and parsley leaves and a roughly chopped carrot and onion. Strain the spices and vegetables from the broth before using.
If you haven't the extra time, low-sodium canned broth is an acceptable alternative. Regular varieties of canned broths often are excessively salty and will overpower the delicate flavor of many soups.
When there's a choice, go for the low-salt type. More salt can easily be added to the pot, if need be.
Soups can be as simple or complex as you like, so be creative. Consider which ingredients make for the most intriguing blend of flavors and textures. For a finished taste and look, top each bowl with a garnish.
Crunchy croutons, chopped nuts or a dollop of yogurt or low-fat sour cream make interesting textural contrasts for thick, creamy soups. Julienned vegetables, paper-thin slices of lemon or lime or chopped fresh herbs are perfect foils for clear soups.
Here are three low-fat soup recipes. Pureed Red Pepper and Potato Soup, from Martha Rose Shulman's collection called "Entertaining Light" (Bantam Books, 1991), is a thick soup with a beautiful tomato-red color.
Novice stock-makers will be pleased with the ease and taste of Shulman's earthy garlic broth, which may be used as a base for the soup in place of chicken stock.
Spicy Indian Chicken Mulligatawny, from "Light and Spicy," by Barbara Gibbons (Harper and Row, 1989) makes a meal at only 275 calories per serving.
If you've never sampled a mulligatawny soup, with its intriguing mix of curry, chicken, apples, rice and vegetables, give this easy recipe a try.
Finally, for dieters who think that Cajun foods - notoriously laden with butter and roux - are off-limits, here's a low-fat, but still rich-tasting, gumbo recipe from Enola Prudhomme's "Low-Calorie Cajun Cooking" (Hearst Books, 1991).
The recipe for seafood stock that accompanies it is simple to prepare. Seafood departments of most supermarkets are thrilled to give away fish carcasses. The only other ingredient you'll need to complete the stock is water.
PUREED RED PEPPER AND POTATO SOUP
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 medium onion, chopped
1 celery rib, finely chopped
1 carrot, finely chopped
3 garlic cloves, minced or put through a press
1 1/2 pounds new potatoes, peeled and sliced or chopped
4 large (about 2 pounds) red bell peppers, seeds and membranes removed, cut into rough, 1-inch squares
6 cups chicken stock or garlic broth (recipe follows)
Salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
Garlic croutons and fresh basil leaves or parsley for garnish
6 tablespoons plain non-fat yogurt for garnish (optional)
Heat the olive oil in a large heavy-bottomed soup pot and saute the onion, celery and carrot slowly over low heat for about 10 minutes, stirring all the time. Add the garlic after the first 5 minutes. If the vegetables begin to stick, add 2 tablespoons water. When the vegetables have softened, add the potatoes, red peppers and stock and bring to a boil. Add a little salt, reduce the heat, cover and simmer for 1 hour or until the vegetables are thoroughly softened.
Puree in batches in a blender or food processor fitted with a steel blade until smooth. Return to the pot and heat through. Add salt and freshly ground pepper to taste. Serve, drizzling a spoonful of the optional yogurt over each bowlful and topping with a couple of croutons and a few fresh basil or parsley leaves. Serves 6; 189 calories per serving.
Note: This is best if made a day ahead of time; it freezes well.
2 heads garlic, cloves separated and peeled
6 cups water
1 bay leaf
2 fresh parsley sprigs
2 fresh thyme sprigs or 1/4 teaspoon crumbled dried thyme
1-2 teaspoons salt to taste
1 teaspoon olive oil
Combine all ingredients in stockpot and bring to boil. Reduce heat, cover and simmer for 1-2 hours. Strain. Keeps 3 days in refrigerator or can be frozen. Makes 6 cups; 22 calories per cup.
SPICY INDIAN CHICKEN MULLIGATAWNY
2 cups tomato juice
2 cups chicken broth
2 cups water
2 carrots, sliced
2 onions, sliced
2 ribs celery, sliced
1/4 cup chopped parsley
1/4 cup uncooked brown rice
2 teaspoons curry powder, or to taste
2 cups diced cooked chicken
2 small red apples, cored and diced
Combine all ingredients, except chicken and apples, in a soup pot. Cover and simmer for 45 minutes or until rice is tender. Add chicken and apple; simmer only until heated through. Makes 4 main-course servings; 275 calories each.
SHRIMP AND OKRA GUMBO
2 (10-ounce) packages frozen cut okra, thawed
3 cups seafood stock (recipe follows) or water
1 medium tomato, peeled, seeded and chopped
1 cup finely chopped onion
1/2 pound medium shrimp, peeled and deveined
2 tablespoons roux flour (recipe follows)
2 teaspoons paprika
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon ground white pepper
1/2 teaspoon ground oregano
1/2 teaspoon ground red pepper
1/2 teaspoon hot pepper sauce
1 bay leaf
1/4 cup finely chopped green onion
1 cup hot cooked rice
Spray the inside of a large saucepan with non-stick vegetable cooking spray and place over high heat. Add the okra and cook 15 minutes, stirring constantly and scraping the bottom of the saucepan with a wooden spoon. (If okra starts to stick, remove the pan from the heat and spray again; return to heat.) Reduce heat to medium and stir in all the remaining ingredients except green onions and rice. Cover and cook for 25 minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove from heat and stir in green onions. Remove the bay leaf. Let stand for 10 minutes before serving. Serve over hot rice. Makes 3 main-course servings; 171 calories each.
To make No-Fat Roux Flour: Place 4 cups all-purpose flour in a large skillet over high heat; with a wire whisk, stir constantly for 25 minutes or until the flour turns the color of light brown sugar. If flour begins to darken too fast, remove the skillet from the heat and stir to allow flour to cool and color evenly before putting it back on a lower heat setting. Remove from the heat and continue stirring until the flour is completely cooled. Sift the flour into a container, and store, covered, until needed. Keeps 2-3 months.
2-3 pounds rinsed shrimp heads and/or shells, crawfish heads and/or crab shells, or rinsed fish carcasses (heads and gills removed) or any combination of these
4 quarts water
In large stockpot, combine ingredients and bring to boil. Reduce the heat, cover and simmer 3-4 hours, or until liquid is reduced by half. Remove from the heat and strain through a sieve. Allow the stock to cool slightly, then refrigerate or freeze in batches.
Try one or more of the following techniques for reducing fat and calories in your soup recipes:
* When sauteeing onions or vegetables for soup, use a non-stick skillet sprayed with non-stick cooking spray or rubbed with a small amount of olive oil to begin the cooking process. If the vegetables start to stick, add stock and finish cooking them by steaming.
* Use cooked, pureed vegetables as a thickener instead of roux (a cooked, butter and flour thickener) or cream.
* Add less meat to the soup pot than usual, and when you do add it, choose extra-lean cuts.
* Eliminate meat altogether and substitute poultry or fish. Or make meatless soups with an interesting mix of seasonal vegetables. To provide complete protein in vegetarian soups, balance two vegetable sources like beans or peas with rice or pasta. Or serve bread on the side, which is the perfect protein complement for soups based on dried beans or peas.
* De-fat homemade stocks well before using in soups. If using canned stock, store the unopened cans in the refrigerator so fat will congeal on the surface and can be easily skimmed off.
* Prepare soups a day or two ahead and refrigerate. Individual flavors will meld better and the fat will have a chance to solidify on the soup's surface. Remove all visible fat before reheating.
* If your favorite soup absolutely demands a fattening roux for color and flavor as well as for thickening - as with many Cajun-style soups - don't toss out the recipe with the caloric cooking technique. While a traditional roux is made by mixing equal parts fat and flour and cooking until the mixture turns brown and takes on a nutty flavor, a fatless roux flour can be substituted.
To make it, cook all-purpose flour (without butter) in a skillet or spread on a cookie sheet and put it in the oven until the flour is the color of light brown sugar (or even slightly darker). This requires about 1 hour in a 325 degree oven. In a skillet over high heat, it takes only a few minutes, but the flour scorches easily and must be watched and stirred constantly. Add the brown roux flour directly to cold liquids in the soup pot or first mix it with cold water, then whisk into the simmering dish to thicken.

George Fox University
George Fox University is in Newberg, Oregon.
(Andrew Theen/The Oregonian)
Two of Oregon's private Christian universities were included in a list of the "absolute worst campuses" for LGBTQ students.
Campus Pride, a nonprofit organization that keeps tabs on how colleges and universities address gay, lesbian and transgender issues on campuses, released an updated list Monday of the 102 schools it says openly discriminate against LGBTQ students.
George Fox, the Newberg-based university affiliated with the Quaker church, appeared on the list. Multnomah University, a private Christian school in Portland, also made the cut.
"Most people are shocked when they learn that there are college campuses still today that openly discriminate against LGBTQ youth.," Shane Windmeyer, Campus Pride's executive director said in a statement. "It is an unspoken secret in higher education, how they use religion as a tool for cowardice and discrimination."
Campus Pride used two criteria to compile the list. Schools must have either received or applied for an exemption to the federal Title IX regulations, which prohibit schools that receive federal dollars from discrimination on the basis of sex. The organization also considered schools with "past history and track record of anti-LGBTQ actions, programs and practices."
Windmeyer said he first published a list of 57 schools in Dec., 2015 that had received or requested Title IX waivers. Earlier this year, the Department of Education released more information on campuses that had requested waivers. Windmeyer said the new "Shame List" publicized Monday includes dozens of additional schools that have documented anti-LGBTQ policies.
Read: See the full list
Multnomah University applied for a Title IX waiver in 2015 on religious grounds but has not been approved. The school did not respond to a request for comment.
George Fox received an exemption from Title IX requirements in 2014, allowing the school to prevent a transgender student from living in male student housing. The university's exemption applies to housing and bathrooms.
A university spokesman didn't originally comment on the list, but referred to a website explaining the exemption and the school's policy on transgender students.
George Fox "affirms the dignity of all people," the statement reads, "and is called to treat all people as Christ did, with compassion and respect."
Nearly two weeks after the story first ran, George Fox spokesman Rob Felton issued a new statement. "Based upon their tax documents, Campus Pride is a three-employee LGBTQ advocacy group based in North Carolina," Felton said in an email. "We'd question what these three activists living nearly 3,000 miles away really know about George Fox or any of the 102 schools they've 'shamed.'"
Elsewhere on its website, George Fox said it addresses transgender students' needs "on a case-by-case basis, prioritizing the well-being of the individual and community alike."
"As an example, care is thus given to ensure that gender-neutral bathrooms are provided in academic and other facilities when possible," the school says.
Last week, Campus Pride released its top LGBTQ-friendly campuses. Southern Oregon and Portland State universities were named to that list.
UPDATE: This story was updated Sept. 9 with a new statement from George Fox.

As the country bid farewell to the late President George H.W. Bush last week, local folks may well have been remembering his September 1988 campaign visit to the area.
The then-Vice President visited Central and Northern Illinois with a stop in Ottawa’s historic Washington Square and at a La Salle-Peru truck stop for a late lunch just off Interstate 80. He also paid a visit to Mendota.
President Bush was among several candidates who were eventually elected president who are known to have visited Ottawa at one time or another including, Abraham Lincoln, Ronald Reagan, then-State Senator Barack Obama and Dwight Eisenhower. Several presidents and candidates for president are known to have passed through Starved Rock Country on the railroads as well.
Sadly, it seems the local area has gone from pass-through to fly-over country lately.
ILLINOIS AT 200 AND COUNTING
There didn’t seem to be a whole lot of interest in last week’s official 200th birthday party.
While historians and tourism promoters from one end of the state to the other were all over the significance of the bicentennial, it appeared most of the state’s citizens could’ve cared less. Perhaps many were put off by the politicization of the event or their disgust with high taxes and the state’s awful history of corruption?
Maybe they were just too busy with their phones???
LA SALLE COUNTY A LINCOLN COMMUNITY
La Salle County was recently recognized as part of our now 200-year-old state’s Lincoln Community heritage area.
That’s quite an honor and the appropriate presentation was made at Ottawa’s historic Reddick Mansion.
There was no public 200th birthday party for Illinois held in Ottawa or La Salle County, which was and is so much an important part of the state’s history.
Maybe next year Starved Rock Country and our new Lincoln Community can have a party for Illinois’ 201st birthday?
Just a suggestion.
Many local taxing authorities are or will be asking more in local property taxes. Pension obligations and other factors are part of the reason along with rising costs for everything.
How much it will cost you depends on the value of your property, who taxes you and at what rate. You certainly have the right to object. Use it.
And before you panic and back up the moving van remember, in the long run the grass isn’t necessarily greener somewhere else.

While doing an interview on Washington DC’s WJFK last year, David Slade, our director for Eclipse, was asked what movie he was going to see next and Twilight was mentioned. David than said, “Twilight drunk? No, not even drunk? Twilight on acid? No, not even on acid. Twilight at gun point? Just shoot me.”
Was he joking or it he actully a twi-hater? It is completely pointless for him to say this and than go and direct one of the sequels. If he is not joking, than I hope he realizes that this makes him look really bad and provokes you to think that he is only in it for the money. If he is not joking, well he is going to learn very quickly not to joke with Twilighters. The fan-girls don't really seem to have a sense of humor.

It will have contestants re-enact classic scenes from movies and do stunts in an effort to win a role in the series. German star Til Schweiger and acting coach Bernhard Hiller will be judging the contestants along with guest judges. According to the Hollywood Reporter, one of the guest judges lined up is Carmen Electra. The show begins airing on June 8th."
A recent press release from Summit, told us the news of how David Slade is going to be directing Eclipse.
"announcement was made by Erik Feig, Summit’s President of Production.
Meyer stated, “I am thrilled that David Slade will be directing ECLIPSE. He's a visionary filmmaker who has so much to offer this franchise. From the beginning, we've been blessed with wonderful directorial talent for the Twilight Saga, and I'm so happy that ECLIPSE will be carrying on with that tradition.”
Feig said, “Stephenie Meyer's ECLIPSE is a muscular, rich, vivid book and we at Summit looked long and hard for a director who could do it justice. We believe we have found that talent in David Slade, a director who has been able to create complex, visually arresting worlds. We cannot wait to see the ECLIPSE he brings to life and brings to the fans eagerly awaiting its arrival in summer of 2010.”
Well, we'll just have to see how this guy does, now won't we?

A psychiatrist (or marriage counselor) might sit down with a couple to discuss their tifs and annoyances with each other. Their lack of communication, their struggles with things here and there. I can imagine they have seen it all too… sex, kids, money, peanut butter, etc. But I’ve got something to add to this official list…
Out of embarrassment, perhaps shame or fear of a tenured doctor pointing and laughing in my face, I have been reluctant to take this specific problem to a psychiatrist. I think I’m long past due. It involves my wife and a blood-curdling noise, one truly unimaginable, that she is able to produce on command. A sound that could kill a man. I’m dead serious (no pun intended).
So what the hell am I talking about you ask?
It’s almost impossible to describe in writing. Imagine someone taking in a really deep breath and closing their lips so tightly as to hold in the air with all their might. Then, like an air raid siren or screech owl amplified by a bull-horn in your ear, releasing the gigantic breath in an absolutely ear-piercing, high pitched “BEOWWWW!!!” with such velocity and abruptness that your mind and body convulses into shock as if you got electrocuted as a prank from an emergency defibrillator – suddenly coursing 1000 volts of electricity through your body. But instead of creating a beat it does the opposite- for truly 5 or more seconds, stops the beating of a living mans heart. Until your mind can catch up after being scrambled. Until the shot of adrenaline ceases.
Melissa finds great delight in using this noise in various situations: as punishment for me picking my nose, for not wiping down the toilet seat, for leaving hair in the sink. As a way to give elderly people a stroke, to create disorder in public malls and parking lots, or to stun awake a hung over friend in a deep coma from the night before. For me the accounts are much worse.
For example, as I’m driving a car 45 mph down a road Melissa will shout “look over there!” (pointing to something out a window). As I turn (already startled) to look, she will suddenly BEOWWWW!!! (me: AHHH OH MY GOOODDD!!!!) and then laugh wildly. Never mind we nearly stuck a man in a wheel chair or veered into oncoming traffic.
There are a handful of our family and friends who have experienced this noise first hand. They will sit and read this post with chilling memories of a past experience – shaking their hands in disbelief, nay, in anger that they fell victim to such an unnatural and evil experience inflicted from one human unto another.
So am I crazy? Would a psychiatrist even understand the problem here? Perhaps this is a normal married life we lead and I am contrasting it to an imaginary world of normal behavior that doesn’t even exist.
As a disclaimer to my wife: She is beautiful, wise, and has so many wonderful expressive habits. These stories were exaggerated (but not really) for humor’s sake. I love her quirky and fun personality and wouldn’t trade it for the world! (and that’s not an exaggeration) 🙂

Series: World of Outlaws (WoO) Sprint Car Series
Locations: Friday – Giant Chevrolet Kings Speedway (Hanford, Calif.)
Saturday – Thunderbowl Raceway (Tulare, Calif.)
Winners: Friday – Postponed to March 31 due to weather
Saturday – Joey Saldana of Kasey Kahne Racing
TSR Results: Saturday – Schatz (Started 4th, Finished 3rd)
Kinser (Started 17th, Finished 6th)
Tony Stewart Racing’s (TSR) Donny Schatz and Steve Kinser continued the World of Outlaws (WoO) Sprint Car Series “California Spring Break Tour” Saturday night at Thunderbowl Raceway in Tulare, Calif., by finishing third and sixth, respectively. The Outlaws were scheduled to stage a pair of events in the Golden State, but persistent rain on Friday night at Giant Chevrolet Kings Speedway in Hanford forced WoO officials to reschedule the 35-lap A-Feature for Thursday, March 31.
Four-time WoO champion Schatz, driver of the No. 15 STP/Armor All/Chevy J&J, earned his fourth consecutive podium finish by placing third in the 35-lap A-Feature. TSR’s Kinser raced the No. 11 Bass Pro Shops/J.D. Byrider/ Chevy Maxim from deep in the field to finish sixth.
After scoring a runner-up finish in last week’s Mini Gold Cup at Silver Dollar Speedway in Chico, Schatz entered the weekend looking to continue to his recent string of solid finishes. On Saturday night, he qualified fourth in the field of 26 cars, finished fifth in the first heat and raced to fourth in the dash. Schatz started the 35-lap A-Feature fourth and battled for the third position during the early stages of the race. He began closing on leaders Joey Saldana and Jason Meyers 10 laps into the race. Schatz took advantage of a lap-17 restart, getting past Meyers for second, but the pass was nullified when another caution flag flew before the lap was completed. On the next restart, Schatz couldn’t get past Meyers and spent the remaining laps chasing the top duo. Schatz’s third-place finish was his fifth podium finish of the season.
For Kinser, the end result of sixth place wasn’t too bad considering where the evening began. The 20-time WoO champion opened the evening by qualifying 18th in the field of 26 competitors. He started the A-Feature from the ninth row and progressively worked his way forward. When the action slowed for the caution on lap 16, he had made his way up to 10th. During the remaining laps, Kinser continued his charge and climbed to sixth. The finish was his eighth top-10 in nine 2011 WoO starts.
Kinser is currently tied with Saldana for the top spot in the 2011 WoO championship standings. Both drivers have 1,280 points. Schatz ranks fourth in the standings with 1,217 markers. The TSR teams will return to action on March 31 to complete Friday’s rained out program at Giant Chevrolet Kings Speedway. They’ll conclude the California tour with a pair of programs, including the Outlaws’ debut at Merced (Calif.) Speedway on Friday, April 1, and a race at Calistoga (Calif.) Speedway on Saturday, April 2.

Time to get out the grills in Iowa—May is beef month! Yes, many of you will argue that across the nation, every month should be beef month. But in Iowa, May is the month cattle producers look forward to, says Brian Waddingham, Director of Industry Relations for the Iowa Beef Industry Council. It’s the start of the growing season, pastures are green and summer time brings people out to enjoy beef.
It’s not just Iowa, though. Illinois, Kansas, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, Nebraska, Oklahoma, Pennsylvania and Vermont all celebrate beef month in May.
County cattlemen associations use checkoff-funded resources for local advertisements to encourage consumers to stock up on beef items. With the current state of the economy, this is a critical time to keep beef consumption high.
Iowa has been celebrating in May for more than 40 years. This year, in Dubuque County, Iowa, Waddingham says cattle producers are promoting a prime rib pizza, while cattlemen in Kossuth County are supporting a variety of local beef-serving restaurants throughout the month.
How does your local cattlemen organization respond to summer fairs and festivals? A “Beef House” at a local, county or state fair can be a vital place to encourage consumers about the healthy benefits of incorporating beef into their diet. E-mail
me details of your local beef activities!
How do you like your beef? On the steak bone or on a bun? There are so many recipes using beef, one could hardly choose just one. But if you are needing some inspiration, the Beef It’s What’s For Dinner website
has compiled a list of blogs about beef, including recipes and nutritional and preparation information. Click here
to find your new favorite dish.
My favorite? A 1”-thick ribeye with a dash of salt and pepper, cooked medium, fresh from the grill. Now it’s summer!

Over the past 3 months I have been experiencing the most horrible symptoms. My symptoms vary and I have no idea what triggers them. I can be sleeping, laying down, at the store, sitting, it doesn't matter. My symptoms include, extreme chest tightness, dizzy spells, numbness on the back of my head, hoarse voice, closed throat, cold sweats, and weakness. I suffer from mild asthma and hypothyroidism and I was recently diagnosed with Hashimoto's Disease. I've been to the ER 6 times with these symptoms and I've had x-rays, MRI's done, EKG's, a stress test done, CT scans of the lungs and thyroid, and nothing shows up! The docs say that i just have anxiety and i do agree at some point, i mean who wouldn't panic if you can't breathe? I'm sick and tired of doctors saying that i have nothing. I feel like i'm going to pass out. I can't drive. I can't leave the house. My life is a mess. I even went to one the best respiratory hospitals in the U.S., National Jewish - they can't find anything either. I don't know what's going on and i feel worse and worse. I just want to know if anyone is having the same symptoms. Please help.
Why can't anyone figure out what I have!? - Anxiety Support

Somebody dust off and fire up the Zoltar Speaks machine.
Fox has acquired a half-hour comedy loosely based on the 1988 Tom Hanks film “Big.” The project comes from Kevin Biegel and Mike Royce, who recently executive produced the comedy “Enlisted” for the network, via 20th Century Fox Television Studios.
The comedy, described as an event series, will explore what it means to be an adult and what it means to be a kid, and how in today’s world those two things are more confused than ever. Biegel and Royce will write and executive produce.
Biegel created “Enlisted” also co-created “Cougar Town,” while Royce co-created and executive produced the TNT series “Men of a Certain Age.” Royce was also executive producer/showrunner on Louis C.K.’s HBO comedy “Lucky Louie” and NBC’s presidential comedy “1600 Penn.”
Biegel and Royce are represented by UTA and Morris Yorn.

The single best tool in our COVID-19 public health toolbox is vaccination.
Currently, more than 190 million Americans are fully vaccinated, representing 57.5% of the U.S. population. Meanwhile, the range of COVID-19 options is increasing.
Late last week, after authorization by the Food and Drug Administration and comprehensive scientific review by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices, the CDC approved use of booster doses for many primary vaccine recipients of Moderna’s COVID-19 vaccine and all those who have received a Janssen (Johnson and Johnson) COVID-19 vaccine. This comes after action last month to approve booster doses for many primary vaccine recipients of the Pfizer/BioNTech vaccine.
In addition, regulators approved the so-called mix-and-match strategy for booster doses. Mix-and-match, also known as heterologous vaccination, means that anyone eligible to receive a COVID-19 booster may receive any of the three available vaccines (Pfizer/BioNTech, Moderna or Janssen) for their booster dose. This was based on data from a National Institutes of Health clinical trial that demonstrated a strong antibody response following this mix-and-match vaccine approach.
Booster eligibility is based on the primary vaccine series as well as age and risk-based factors. For eligible at-risk people who received a two-dose series of an mRNA vaccine (Pfizer/BioNTech or Moderna), a booster dose of any available COVID-19 vaccine may be administered six months later to boost immunity.
Risk groups include people 65 and older or those living in a long-term care setting, people 18 to 64 with an underlying medical condition, and people at increased risk of transmission because of an occupational or institutional setting.
All adults who received a Janssen vaccine are eligible to receive a booster dose of any available COVID-19 vaccine beginning at least two months later.
People with moderate to severe immune compromise who received either a Pfizer/BioNTech or Moderna vaccine have been eligible for a third dose of that vaccine since the summer. Those people are also now eligible for a booster of any available COVID-19 vaccine beginning six months after that third dose.
Vaccines help to build immunity to infection from the SARS CoV-2 virus (which causes COVID-19), even among those who have been previously infected. Booster doses of vaccines are not unusual. Think of the yearly flu vaccine as one example. A booster dose can help to boost immunity.
Earlier this week, an FDA advisory board recommended Pfizer/BioNTech’s vaccine for use in children ages 5 to 11 years old. If approved, more than 28 million children in this age range would become eligible for vaccination, possibly as early as next week.
Despite the availability of boosters, primary vaccination of people who remain unvaccinated is the most important strategy to reaching community immunity and curbing the pandemic.

From time to time I see a WA member inquiring about if it's possible to create a CNAME. As of the time of this training, WA has not implemented the ability for members to create CNAMEs. I have been told that they are working on adding this ability.
In the meantime you can use subdomain forwarding to kind of get SIMILAR functionality.
Subdomain Forwarding For Domains Registered At SiteDomains
- Go to https://my.wealthyaffiliate.co... and click the "Add Subdomain" button.
- Give the subdomain the name of the CNAME you need to create and select the site that it's for.
- Click the blue "Create" button.
- To the right, select "Settings" -> "Redirect"
- Enter the URL you want to redirect the subdomain to and click the blue "Save Settings" button.
Subdomain Forwarding For Domains Registered Elsewhere
Unfortunately, for domains registered at other registrars other than SiteDomains, you won't have the redirect option on these domains/subdomains. We can accomplish the same thing as above using Apache server redirects to forward the subdomain.
- Go to https://my.wealthyaffiliate.co... and click the "Add Subdomain" button underneath the "Other Domains" section.
- Use the CNAME you are trying to create as the name of the subdomain and click "Create".
- Select "Settings" and then "FTP Access" to the right.
- FTP into the subdomain and delete all existing files and folders.
- Create a new file called .htaccess
- Put the following Apache server directive in the file "Redirect / http://example.com" be sure to leave the quotes off and replace http://example.com with the URL you are trying to redirect to.
- Save the file.
- Edit the permissions of the .htaccess file to be "644". This means read and write for the owner, read for the group, and read for the public.
Limitations of Subdomain Forwarding Using Apache Server Redirect Directives
If you create a CNAME, your URL will stay in the browser while the page it references loads. Subdomain forwarding using apache server redirects behaves differently in that the URL that you are forwarding to will replace your domain's URL in the web browser.
If this is something you don't want you will need to wait for WA to implement the ability to create CNAMEs or host your website elsewher.
