Post-Independence Population Movement
1. In a reversal of the migration patterns experienced during the modern colonial era, postindependence era migration followed a route back towards the imperial country.
2. In some cases, this was a movement of settlers of European origin returning to the land of their birth, or to an ancestral birthplace. 900,000 French colonists (known as the Pied-Noirs) resettled in France following Algeria’s independence in 1962.
3. After WWII 300,000 Dutchmen from the Dutch East Indies, of which the majority were people of Eurasian descent called Indo-Europeans, repatriated to the Netherlands.
4. A significant number later migrated to the US, Canada, Australia and New Zealand.
5. Global travel and migration in general developed at an increasingly brisk pace
throughout the era of European colonial expansion. Citizens of the former colonies of European countries may have a privileged status in some respects with regard to immigration rights when settling in the former European imperial nation.
6. For example, rights to dual citizenship may be generous, or larger immigrant quotas may be extended to former colonies.
7. In some cases, the former European imperial nations continue to foster close political and economic ties with former colonies.
8. The Commonwealth of Nations is an organization that promotes cooperation between and among Britain and its former colonies, the Commonwealth members.
9. A similar organization exists for former colonies of France, the Francophonie; the
The community of Portuguese Language Countries plays a similar role for former
Portuguese colonies and the Dutch Language Union is the equivalent for former colonies of the Netherlands.
10. Migration from former colonies has proven to be problematic for European countries, where the majority population may express hostility to ethnic minorities who have emigrated from former colonies.
11. Cultural and religious conflicts have often erupted in France in recent decades, between immigrants from the Maghreb countries of North Africa and the majority population of France.

The witching hour is near! Whether you are hosting a Halloween party at your apartment or doing a little apartment decorating for trick-or-treaters, it’s time to get super spooky with your Halloween decor. Here are some top decorating ideas that will make it fun for you and the ghouls you encounter on Halloween night!
Monsters in motion
When you want to scare the pants off party guests or innocent trick-or-treaters, then motion-activated monsters are a must-have for your outdoor Halloween decor. A motion-triggered floating ghost will definitely make your visitors jump. If you want something a little less in-your-face, opt for a sweet trio of black cats that howl as visitors pass by. These hair-raising Halloween props are bad luck for your guests, but good fun for you.
Creep up the music
Playing “Monster Mash” on repeat just doesn’t cut it anymore for Halloween. For some seriously spooky fun, you’ve got to add more creep factor to your playlist with sounds that strike fear into the hearts of trick-or-treaters everywhere. Make a playlist with cuts from the soundtracks of ultra-scary movies like “Halloween,” “Friday the 13th,” and “The Exorcist.” Evoking these classic horror movies is guaranteed to give the heebie jeebies. (Your neighbors may want to exorcise you!)
Subtle, but spooky
Spooky fun doesn’t have to be scary, of course. It can be gross… or playful. You can create fun decor that is whimsical, with cleverly-carved pumpkins and wispy ghosts. MovingToday gives apartment pumpkin carving tips. Martha Stuart offers eerie and interesting suggestions for subtle indoor Halloween decor like cheesecloth cobwebs and displays of specimen jars (for that Halloween gross factor we mentioned.)
Go color crazy
For those of you who prefer a modern and elegant take on this hip holiday, opt for a color change to show off your Halloween style. Simple changes like hanging black curtains, tossing orange pillows on the sofa and putting out pumpkin-shaped coasters can turn your apartment into a charmingly spooky Halloween den. Home decor companies like Pottery Barn and West Elm offer great Halloween accessories.
For the ultimate in classy Halloween apartment decorating, take a cue from the past and decorate your place with vintage Halloween decorations. These often feature iconic Halloween elements like witches, black cats, pumpkins and devils. Hit your favorite local thrift shop and decorate your boudoir with old lace doilies and antique photos. To share the fun with faraway friends, send vintage Halloween greeting cards to celebrate this spooky fun holiday!

Frogkisser! OverviewGarth Nix’s young adult fantasy novel Frogkisser! inverts everything a reader might think they know about princesses, frogs, wizards, witches, and beyond. The novel follows the story of teenage Princess Anya of Trallonia, the younger sister of the heir to the throne. The sisters' otherwise idyllic and simple existence is subverted by their evil sorcerer stepfather Duke Rikard, who is intent on stealing the crown from her sister before she is of age. At first, Anya simply has to save Prince Denholm, her sister’s newest love, after her stepfather transforms him into a frog. But soon her Quest for the ingredients to the necessary potion becomes much more than simply acquiring a list of grocery items. Nix weaves his novel together with well known stories and legends that young readers will recognize and love, while using them to invert gender roles and make the reader question the stories they have grown up with. The reader will also learn about teamwork and the importance of kindness along Anya’s journey to save her sister and her kingdom.

What do you get when you mix Juggling with poi?
Well, you can get a lot of things, but let’s start with this Wall Plane Mills Mess taught to us by the ever-amazing Coach, aka Jeremiah Jacobs.
A prerequisite to this trick is to know your Wall Plane Cascade with three poi.
Start with just one poi. Do a normal toss, but rather than swinging downwards, swing under and over your shoulder, and then throw from behind. Be sure to have a smooth release, like a reverse penguin.
When you can do this with one poi, try it with two.
You can put all together by starting in your Wall Plane Cascade again. Just try doing one of the Mills Mess tosses within your cascade. Try it with every other hand right hand, or every other left hand, and finally back to back.
Jeremiah Jacobs, known affectionately as “Coach” by most, is a 22-year-old traveling instructor and performer from Grand Rapids, Michigan. Always a lover of fire, he became inspired to start spinning fire at age 11 after seeing it in a movie. A seasoned teacher of 8 years, he truly loves the art of instruction, which is where he finds his ultimate flow.
Show us your Wall Plane Mills Mess! We would love to see it! Create an Instagram or Facebook video and tag @flowartsintitute and hashtag #tutsday.

Heartworm infection (HWI) (dirofilariasis), caused by Dirofilaria immitis, primarily affects members of the family Canidae. Dirofilariasis is widely distributed, being recognized in northern and southern temperate zones, in the tropics, and in the subtropics. Infections are recognized in most of the United States, although the distribution favors the Southeast and Mississippi River Valley. In some endemic areas in the United States, infection rates approach 45%, and in some hyperendemic tropical regions, virtually all dogs are infected. Dirofilariasis is generally infrequent in Canada. A recent survey of veterinarians indicated that in 2001 there were approximately 240,000 cases diagnosed in the United States.
Species known to have been infected with Dirofilaria immitis include the domestic dog, wolves, foxes, coyotes, domestic cats, ferrets, muskrats, sea lions, nondomestic cats, coatimundi, and humans. The species of greatest interest to die practicing veterinarian include the dog and domestic cat. Because the consequences, treatment, and prognoses differ between the two species, clinical aspects of canine and feline heartworm disease (HWD) will be discussed separately.
When heartworm infection is severe or prolonged, it may result in the pathologic process, called HWD. heartworm disease may vary from asymptomatic (radiographic lesions only) to severe, life-threatening, chronic pulmonary artery, lung, and cardiac disease. In chronic HWI, glomerulonephritis, anemia, and thrombocytopenia may also be recognized. Severe dirofilariasis may, in addition, produce acute and fulminant multisystemic presentations, such as caval syndrome (CS) and disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC).
Dirofilaria immitis is transmitted by over sixty species of mosquitoes, although important mosquito vectors probably number less than 12. Understanding the complex life cycle of Dirofilaria immitis is imperative for veterinary practitioners in heartworm endemic areas. Adult heartworms (L5) reside in the pulmonary arteries and, to a lesser extent in heavy infections, the right ventricle. After mating, microfilariae (LI) are produced by mature adult female heartworms (L5) and are released into the circulation. These LI are ingested by feeding female mosquitoes and undergo two moults (LI to L2 to L3) over an 8- to 17-day period. It is important to note that this process is temperature dependent; in times of the year when insufficient numbers of days occur in which the ambient temperature is adequate, moulting in the mosquito does not occur during the lifetime of the female mosquito and transmission cannot occur.The resultant L3 is infective and is transmitted by the feeding mosquito to the original or another host, most often a male dog. Another moult occurs in the subcutaneous, adipose, and skeletal muscular tissues shortly after infection (1 to 12 days), with a final moult to L5 3 months (50 to 68 days) after infection. This immature adult (1 to 2 cm in length) soon enters the vascular system, migrating to the heart and lungs, where final maturation (mature male adults range from 15 to 18 cm and females from 25 to 30 cm) and mating occur. Under optimum conditions, completion of the life cycle takes 184 to 210 days. The canine host typically becomes microfilaremic 6 to 7 months after infection. Microfilariae (LI), which are variably present in infected dogs, show both seasonal and diurnal periodicity, with greatest numbers appearing in the peripheral blood during the evening hours and during the summer. Adult heartworms in dogs are known to live up to 5 years and microfilariae up to 30 months. Dillon has recently emphasized that the disease process in heartworm disease begins with the moult to L5 (as soon as 2 to 3 months postinfection), at which time immature adults (L5) enter the vascular system, initiating vascular and possibly lung disease, with eosinophilia and eosinophilic infiltrates and signs of respiratory disease. It is important to note that this antedates the profession’s current ability to diagnose HWI.
Canine Heartworm Disease: Pathophysiology
Heartworm is a misnomer because the adult actually resides in the pulmonary arterial system for the most part, and the primary insult to the health of the host is a manifestation of damage to the pulmonary arteries and lung. The severity of the lesions and hence clinical ramifications are related to the relative number of worms (ranging from one to over 250), the duration of infection, and the host and parasite interaction. Immature and mature adult heartworms reside primarily in the caudal pulmonary vascular tree, occasionally migrating into the main pulmonary arteries, the right heart, and even the great veins in heavy infections.
Obstruction of pulmonary vessels by living worms is of little clinical significance, unless worm burdens are extremely high. The major effect on the pulmonary arteries is produced by worm-induced (toxic substances, immune mechanisms, and trauma) villous myointimal proliferation, inflammation, pulmonary hypertension (PHT), disruption of vascular integrity, and fibrosis.This may be complicated by arterial obstruction and vasoconstriction caused by dead worm thromboemboli and their products. Pulmonary vascular lesions begin to develop within days of worm arrival (as early as 3 months postinfection), With endothelial damage and sloughing, villous proliferation, and activation and attraction of leucocytes and platelets. The immigration of such cells and the release of trophic factors induce smooth muscle cell proliferation and migration with collagen accumulation and eventual fibrosis. Proliferative lesions eventually encroach upon and even occlude vascular lumina. Endothelial swelling with altered intracellular junctions increases the permeability of the pulmonary vasculature. Worms, which have died naturally or have been killed, elicit an even more severe reaction, inciting thrombosis, granulomatous inflammation, and rugous villous inflammation. Grossly, the pulmonary arteries are enlarged, thick-walled, and tortuous, with roughened endothelial surfaces. These changes are only partially reversible.
Although the role of exercise in exacerbation of the signs of thromboembolic heartworm disease is accepted, its role in the development of pulmonary vascular disease and pulmonary hypertension is less clear. Although Rawlings was unable to show an effect of 2.5 months controlled treadmill exercise on pulmonary hypertension in heavily infected dogs, Dillon showed more severe pulmonary hypertension in lightly infected, mildly exercised dogs than in more heavily infected but unexercised dogs receiving no exercise at 6 months postinfection.
Diseased pulmonary arteries are thrombosed, thickened, dilated, tortuous, noncompliant, and functionally incompetent, thereby resisting recruitment during increased demand; hence exercise capacity is diminished. Vessels to the caudal lung lobes are most severely affected. Pulmonary vasoconstriction results secondary to vasoactive substances released from heartworms. Furthermore, hypoxia (induced by ventilation-perfusion mismatching secondary to eosinophilic pneumonitis, pulmonary consolidation, or both), further contributes to vasoconstriction. The result is pulmonary hypertension and compromised cardiac output. Pulmonary hypertension is exacerbated with exercise or other states of increased cardiac output. The right heart, which is an efficient volume pump but does not withstand pressure overload, first compensates by eccentric hypertrophy (dilatation and wall thickening) and, in severe infections, ultimately decompensation (right heart failure). In addition, hemodynamic stresses, geometric changes, and cardiac remodeling may contribute to secondary tricuspid insufficiency, thereby complicating or precipitating cardiac decompensation. Pulmonary infarction is uncommon because of the extensive collateral circulation provided the lung and because of the gradual nature of vascular occlusion. Because of increased pulmonary vascular permeability, perivascular edema may develop. Although, along with an inflammatory infiltrate, this may be evident radio-graphically as increased interstitial and even alveolar density, in and of itself, it is seemingly of minimal clinical significance and does not indicate left heart failure (in other words, furosemide is not indicated).
Spontaneous or postadulticidal thromboembolization (PTE) with dead worms may precipitate or worsen clinical signs, producing or aggravating PHT, right heart failure or, in rare instances, pulmonary infarction. Dying and disintegrating worms worsen vascular damage and enhance coagulation. Pulmonary blood flow is further compromised and consolidation of affected lung lobes may occur. With acute and massive worm death, this insult may be profound, particularly if associated with exercise. Exacerbation by exercise likely reflects increased pulmonary artery flow with escape of inflammatory mediators into the lung parenchyma through badly damaged and permeable pulmonary arteries. Dillon has suggested that the lung injury is similar to that seen in adult respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS).
Pulmonary parenchymal lesions also result by mechanisms other than post-thromboembolic consolidation. Eosinophilic pneumonitis is most often reported in true occult HWD, when immune-mediated destruction of microfilariae in the pulmonary microcirculation produces amicrofilaremia. This syndrome results when antibody-coated microfilariae, entrapped in the pulmonary circulation, incite an inflammatory reaction (eosinophilic pneumonitis). A more sinister but uncommon form of parenchymal lung disease, termed pulmonary eosinophilic granulomatosis, has been associated with HWD. The exact cause and pathogenesis are unknown, but it is felt to be similar to HWD-related allergic pneumonitis. It is postulated that microfilariae trapped in the lungs are surrounded by neutrophils and eosinophils, eventually forming granulomas and associated bronchial lymphadenopathy.
Antigen-antibody complexes, formed in response to heart-worm antigens, commonly produce glomerulonephritis in heartworm-infected dogs. The result is proteinuria (albu-minuria) but uncommonly renal failure. Heartworms may also produce disease by aberrant migration. This uncommon phenomenon has been associated with neuromuscular and ocular manifestations, because worms have been described in tissues such as muscle, brain, spinal cord, and anterior chamber of the eye. In addition, arterial thrombosis with L5 has been observed when worms migrate aberrandy to the aortic bifurcation or more distally in the digital arteries. Adult heartworms may also migrate in a retrograde manner from the pulmonary arteries to the right heart and venae cavae, producing CS, a devastating process, described following.
Clinical Signs of Canine Heartworm Disease
The clinical signs of chronic heartworm disease depend on the severity and duration of infection and, in most chronic cases, reflect the effects of the parasite on the pulmonary arteries and lungs, and secondarily, the heart. It is important to point out that the vast majority of dogs with heartworm infection are asymptomatic. Historical findings in affected dogs variably include weight loss, diminished exercise tolerance, lethargy, poor condition, cough, dyspnea, syncope, and abdominal distension (ascites). Physical examination may reveal evidence of weight loss, split second heart sound (13%), right-sided heart murmur of tricuspid insufficiency (13%), and cardiac gallop. If right heart failure is present, jugular venous distension and pulsation typically accompanies hepatosplenomegaly and ascites. Cardiac arrhythmias and conduction disturbances are uncommon in chronic heartworm disease (<10%). With pulmonary parenchymal manifestations of HWD, cough and pulmonary crackles may be noted and, with granulomatosis (a rare occurrence), muffled lung sounds, dyspnea, and cyanosis are also reported. When massive pulmonary thromboembolization occurs, the additional signs of fever and hemoptysis may be noted.
The prognosis for asymptomatic heartworm infection is generally good and, although the prognosis for severe heartworm disease has to be guarded, a large percentage of such cases can be successfully managed. Once the initial crisis is past and adulticidal therapy has been successful, resolution of underlying manifestations of chronic heartworm disease begins. The prognosis is poorest with severe DIC, CS, massive embolization, eosinophilic granulomatosis, severe pulmonary artery disease, and heart failure After adulticidal therapy, intimal lesions regress rapidly. Improvement is noted as early as 4 weeks post-treatment in the main pulmonary artery, with all pulmonary arteries having undergone marked resolution within 1 year. Radiographic and arteriographic lesions of heartworm disease begin to resolve within 3 to 4 weeks, and pulmonary hypertension is reduced within months and may be normal within 6 months of adulticide therapy. Pulmonary parenchymal changes are worsened during the 6 months after adulticidal therapy and then begin to lessen in severity, with marked resolution within the next 2 to 3 months. Persistence of such lesions is suggestive of persistent infection. Corticosteroid therapy hastens the resolution of these lesions. Likewise irreversible renal disease is uncommon, with glomerular lesions resolving within months of successful adulticidal therapy. Signs of heart failure are also reversible with symptomatic therapy, cage rest, and successful clearing of infection.
Macrolides As Adulticides
It is now proven that ivermectin (and possibly selamectin) has adulticidal efficacy that can approach 100% with prolonged, continuous administration. Ivermectin was demonstrated to be successful as an adulticide in experimental, young infections with 31 months’ continuous administration. The exact role of macrolides in the management of HWI, other than as preventatives, is unclear and likely to be a major controversy in upcoming years.
The appeal of macrolides for this use is that it takes the veterinarian out of the complication loop. Complications might indeed still occur but would not likely be temporally linked to the macrolide administration (as they are to arsenic use). In addition, reduced cost, patient discomfort, and inconvenience are appealing. Arguments against the use of ivermectin in this way include the following:
• Represents an off-label use of ivermectin
• Requires continuous more than 30 months’ compliance from a client that often has allowed heartworm infection to occur — often by poor compliance
• Lack of knowledge about the timing and degree of exercise restriction necessary; safe use might require 31 months of continuous exercise restriction
• Absence of a controlled kill as seen with melarsomine, reducing the ability to effectively monitor for adverse effects
• Lack of knowledge as to the effect of chronic antigen release from slowly dying adult heartworms on the kidneys and lungs
• Knowledge that macrolide “slow adulticidal therapy” does not alleviate the lung disease associated with HWI
• Fact that proven efficacy is only in young (<8 months old) experimental HWIs
• Concern that heartworm resistance to ivermectin might develop in dogs treated in this manner
At the 2001 American Heartworm Symposium, the audience and a panel of experts were polled as to their belief as to the role of ivermectin as an adulticide in their own practices. Five percent of the audience and none of the expert panelists used only ivermectin for adulticidal therapy. Approximately one third of both groups did not or would not use ivermectin as an adulticide under any circumstances. Finally, approximately 70% of the expert panel and 50% of the audience stated that they would use ivermectin for this purpose only under mitigating circumstances of financial or medical constraint.
The author recommends that melarsomine be the primary adulticidal tool and recommends or accepts the use of ivermectin in instances where a preventative is necessary in a heartworm-positive dog and the owner cannot afford arsenic therapy or in which medical conditions preclude its use; in the event of residual infection after appropriate treatment with melarsomine (assumes low worm burden); and, obviously, in unrecognized infections.

Reviews for Shrimp with Lobster Sauce
The balance of sweet and salty was not there. Need to work on the recipe.
Easy to make and turned out great. I have been searching for a recipe like this for a while. I hope I can find a Cantonese recipe for an authentic sweet and sour recipe for sweet and sour duck. The breading on the one I grew up on was crispy and very dark in color on a chunk of pulled duck. Never been a le to find anything like it. Sadly the restaurant I grew up with has long since closed. If anyone knows of a recipe similar please let me know. TS
I was so disappointed. The addition of ground pork made no sense and in my opinion was unnecessary and ruined the dish. It would’ve been better to put carrots and some other vegetables in it.
More pork, 1 can Chicken & Rice Soup, dark rice wine vinegar at end 1 sliced scallion with the garlic
Having a new bride recently arrived from Hong Kong, I thought this would be a good offering to remind her of home. I followed the recipe closely only substituting chicken broth for the water. The result was salty for her taste but I enjoyed it. My mistake was not allowing for the salt content of the broth. Overall good, straightforward to make and something I will make again.
My wife is allergic to fish and shell fish, so I replaced the shrimp with chicken. With the ground pork and the yummy sauce, it really took care of my craving for Chinese take-out.
Great recipe. I used a little less oil. I used low fat ground pork and added some frozen peas at the very end, after adding the egg. The peas are a great addition.
as authentic a recipe as I've ever had.
very close. fast and easy
This dish is supposed to have fermented black beans. I used very little oil and increased water to 2 cups. Added about 1 tbs of fermented black beans (rinsed and chopped) and stir-fried with the pork. Also used 2 eggs instead of one because my family likes extra egg. Beat the eggs and drizzled into the pan at the end. Waited a sec for the egg drizzle to set then stirred slightly. Added chopped green onions and served over hot rice.
if I make again will use something green maybe scallions just so it isn't so brown.
Amazing!Nothing compares to this dish made to my exact taste! Pretty as the picture! More delicious than pictured!!
Great recipe. Next time, I'm going to omit the pork and I also added capers. The recipe that way matches one of my husband's favorites from a restaurant we used to go to as newlyweds!! Thanks for the great recipe.
I didn't have pork on hand, and I had 1.5lb of shrimp. I still doubled the sauce recipe and its was the PERFECT amount. It was delicious! I served it over rice with the garlic roasted broccoli and lemon recipe on this site. Next time I'll add some mushrooms and peas, it'll be just like PFchangs :)
This recipe is not bad: C+. Traditional ingredients missing are black beans, scallion, and ginger. Use chicken stock instead of water and doublr ground pork to 1/2 lb.
I gave 4 stars because it is poorly written.
This is an easy, and simple recipe, that produces a Chinese Restaurant worthy lobster sauce. I personally add more garlic, and use a drizzle of molasses in lieu of the sugar. I find the molasses provies a deeper taste, and color !
Excellent! Will make again.
The family loved this! DH brought home a pound of ground pork so I decided to quadruple the recipe (we like a lot of sauce!) Swapped out shrimp for two bricks of tofu, and added some pea pods, straw mushrooms and finely sliced napa cabbage for color and veggies. Served over steamed broccoli instead of rice. Used chicken stock in place of the water and didn't add the salt (figured between the stock and soy sauce it would be plenty seasoned). It was better than what we get a the local Chinese restaurant. Wish I found this years ago, will definitely become part of the normal meal rotation.
So good! Tastes just like the restaurant version (albeit less soupy, which for me is a good thing). Two thumbs up! I make this for my work lunches all the time.
This was so easy to make, nice and light and tasty.
This was surprisingly good. I did not have any gr.pork and omitted it, as others did. Instead, I added broccoli, carrots, onions and doubled the soy sauce mixture. Not the greatest Asian shrimp dish, but I would probably make it again. I even got my 4 1/2 yr old whose extremely pick to eat some. Served over steamed rice.
I have made this over and over again. If you want it the true Cantonese way omit the soy sauce as this makes it bitter. I usually double the sauce as that is my favorite part. sometimes I'll use sesame oil which gives a nice subtle flavor to the already amazing dish. It's been my mom's favorite dish to order since she was little. Now s g email won't order it instead she has me make it.
This recipe is excellent. It really deserves a 5 star rating. The only thing I do different is double the recipe because everyone loved it so much.
Thanks to other reviewers my dish turned out heavenly. I added peas and minced waterchestnuts, as well as beef bouillion. I didn't have any sherry but used white wine like PF Changs does. I also didn't have any pork but it still came out well with just Shrimp. I will definitely have to find that Lobster Bouillion that someone recommended. Even my picky two year old ate it, I definitely will be adding this to our menu rotation!
I added chopped green onions at the end. The rest of the recipe is delicious!
Very satisfied with this dish! I used ground turkey and it came out very delicious
I have made this multiple times. It is just delicious. My mother thinks it’s better than the Chinese restaurant. The only tweaks I’ve made, I substitute dry vermouth instead of cooking sherry (I don’t keep that in the house), I use a pound of ground pork, as a 1/4 is just invisible and I use 2 eggs instead of 1. Also I add more garlic as we are garlic lovers. Otherwise, I use the recipe as is. If you love shrimp and lobster sauce as we do, you should try this recipe. Easy to make.
I am so disappointed in this recipe I registered just to be able to comment. I followed the recipe exactly. Only the shrimp came out edible. There is far too much cornstarch and far too little flavor in this recipe. It is nothing like the shrimp in lobster sauce I have ordered in restaurants, and I order it a lot in many different cities. The cornstarch also makes it very messy to cook. The sauce should be off-whitish, this one is the color of mud and has a similar consistency.
Loved it. It tasted just as good as any Chinese restaurant. I added fermented black beans and would cut out the salt as the soy and black beans are salty enough.
I added minced ginger and one and a half ingredients for the sauce. I added cubed zucchini to the mostly cooked pork and added steamed green beans at the end.Definetly will make again!
This recipe was GREAT!!! I have a hard time getting my family to try anything exotic...but I got rave reviews. Both my mom and my sister are dying for the recipe! Thanks

The Upstart Crow Theatre Company presents ‘Love’s Labor’s Won’ January 20-30, Dairy Arts Center, 2590 Walnut Street, Boulder. Tickets: $21-$25.
If Shakespeare ever wrote a sequel to Love’s Labour’s Lost, it hasn’t survived the ravages of time.

There’s no attempt to copy Shakespeare’s style (except for the bad puns), but most of the characters are back, and the course of true love isn’t any smoother than it was before.

Using LEAPs to Trade Earnings
The best stocks to buy are those that are undervalued. And when you combine an undervalued stock with an undervalued long-term option contract, or LEAP, your chance of securing a nice profit is much greater.
I like to use a company’s earnings estimates to help determine the forward value of the company’s shares and, in turn, their options. By multiplying the consensus earnings estimate for the stock by its current P/E (price-to-earnings ratio), you can arrive at a projected stock price when its LEAPS expire. (LEAPS are options that allow you to buy up to two and a half years worth of time.)
If this price projection is above the break even stock price (i.e., the strike price of the option plus the cost to buy the option), then you have found an undervalued LEAP. In my opinion, nothing beats buying an undervalued option, because not only are you getting it on sale, but you’re also able to enjoy even bigger profits than other investors who come later to the party and pay more to get in on the same trade.
If you want to be conservative in projecting the price of a stock before your option expires, you can use the lowest earnings estimate for your price projection. If you want to be more aggressive, you can use higher estimates than the analysts’ consensus.
Let me give you a historical example to illustrate how this strategy works.
A few years ago I put this strategy into action with a Pfizer (PFE) Jan 32.50 Call that was selling for $2.80 ($280 per contract). At the time, the stock was trading at $31. The LEAP’s breakeven stock price (strike price plus option price) was $35.30.
To run a quick fundamental analysis on this position I checked Pfizer’s earnings estimates for the nearest timeframe before the LEAP expired. At that time, the consensus earnings estimate of professionals who follow the stock and its industry every day was $2.08 per share.
To find my stock price estimate for the shares, I multiplied the consensus earnings estimate by the stock’s P/E, which was 31 at the time. So, my price estimate for Pfizer one month prior to the LEAP’s expiration date was $64.48 ($2.08 multiplied by 31).
This was well above the LEAP’s break even stock price of $35.30. In fact, it was estimating a price gain of more than 1,000% by the LEAP. (A stock price of $64.48 puts the LEAP over $31 in-the-money, giving the option a value of at least $31.)
Now, that struck me as a little too good to be true. So, I also estimated the future LEAP value using Pfizer’s then industry average P/E of 21. This lower value gave me an average stock price of $43, implying a potential gain of 275% for the long-term call options.
Taking the calculation one step further, I used Pfizer’s lowest average earnings estimate at the time ($1.74), combined with the industry average P/E of 21. This gave me a “worst-case” December stock price of $36.50, still above the LEAP’s breakeven stock price, and an implied LEAP value of $4, or a gain of 42%.
Of course, earnings estimates can change, and P/E ratios can compress. Also, we all know now that any stock’s price is capable of being pulled down by a strong bear market undercurrent. That being said, the principle of valuing LEAPS by using some simple fundamental analysis on the underlying stock can help move the odds of profit more firmly in your favor.
This strategy can also help you ride out some of the storms you will invariably encounter during the long-term life of your LEAPS.
So, if you want to make the LEAP toward big profits, why not put the power of LEAPS and your own powers of analysis, to work for you?

SHANGHAI (Reuters) – Tesla cut the starting prices for its Model 3 and Model Y cars by 9% in China, reversing increases across the industry amid signs of waning demand in the world’s largest auto market as analysts warn. price war.
The price cuts, posted in listings on the electric vehicle (EV) giant’s China website on Monday, are the first by Tesla in China in 2022, and come after Tesla began offering insurance incentives to buyers last month.
The move to cut some prices by about a tenth comes after Tesla CEO Elon Musk said last week that a “recession of sorts” in China and Europe was putting pressure on demand for its electric cars.
Data on Monday showed global retail sales No. The second economy grew 2.5% in September, less than the expected 3.3% rise and less than half the 5.4% growth rate in August. Analysts are warning of a rising inventory glut in China, where car sales growth slowed in September while electric vehicle sales rose at their slowest pace in five months.
The US automaker and several Chinese competitors have raised prices several times since last year amid rising raw material costs. But Tesla has also regularly adjusted prices for its cars in China, including cuts, reflecting government support.
Tesla told Reuters it is adjusting prices in line with costs. Capacity utilization at Shanghai Gigafactory has improved, while the supply chain remains stable despite the impact on the economy of the strict restrictions on the non-spread of the Corona virus in China, which has led to lower costs, she said.
The starting price of the Model 3 car has been reduced to 265.900 yuan ($36,727) from 279,900 yuan, while the price of the Model Y SUV has been reduced to 288,900 yuan from 316,900 yuan, according to product prices listed on its Chinese website.
Reuters previously reported that Tesla upgraded its Shanghai plant earlier this year in a development that raised the plant’s weekly production capacity to about 22,000 units, compared to levels of about 17,000 in June.
Tesla delivered 83,135 China-made electric vehicles in September, up 8% from August, and set a production record for the Shanghai plant since production began in December 2019.
But China Merchants Bank International (CMBI) analysts warned last week that 2023 will bring more competition to the electric vehicle sector, saying it expects to see sales of electric and hybrid vehicles on a combined basis drop below 50%.
“The price cuts underscore the potential price war we’ve been emphasizing since August,” said Shi Jie, an analyst at CMBI.
“Given Tesla’s capacity expansion in the third quarter of 2022 we expect other New Energy Vehicle (NEV) makers to follow suit, as China’s new energy capacity will increase significantly next year.”
