1- 2 layer size white cake mix
1/4 cup sour cream
1 tsp almond extract
2 eggs
1 package (8oz) cream cheese softened
1/4 sugar
1/2 cup raspberry preserves (you could use whatever flavour you want)
1/2 cup sliced almonds

Heat oven to 350F, grease springform pan or 9″X9″ square cake pan.
Mix cake mix, sour cream, almond extract and 1 of the eggs in a bowl on low speed until well blended and crumbly.
Reserve 1/2 cup of crumbs and set aside.
Press remaining crumbs in bottom and 1″ up the sides of the pan. Bake 10 minutes.

Beat cream cheese, sugar and remaining egg until smooth.

In a separate bowl combine 1/2 cup reserved crumb mixture with 1/2 cup sliced almonds, mix.

Once crust is out of the oven, pour in the cream cheese mixture and spread evenly over crust.
Drop teaspoonfuls of the preserves evenly over cream cheese mixture, do not swirl.
Sprinkle crumb/sliced almond mixture over top.

Bake 25 minutes or until filling is set and crust is golden brown. Cool a few minutes and run a knife around the side of the pan to loosen cake. Remove side of pan (if using a springform pan).

Helpful nature guide talked about all the animals that are in the area and pointed out their tracks on the ground and what the paw prints look like. Ducks and geese were all over the lake and visitors could walk the 2 mile trail that looks into the original reservoir that is now being returned to wetlands. See www.chatsworthreservoir.com for the history
and what it looked like filled with water. This area is down the block from the Chatsworth lake market.
The preserve is only open to the public once a year on earth day.

(21 July 2009)

Grayson’s questioning focused on the Fed’s handouts to FOREIGN central banks in Europe and other countries. These “Central Bank Liquidity Swaps” rose from a total of $24 billion at the end of 2007, to over $553 billion by the end of 2008.

Grayson: “So who got the money?”
Bernanke: “Financial institutions in Europe and other counries.”
Grayson: “Which ones?”
Bernanke: “I don’t know.”
Gryson: “Half a trillion dollars and you don’t know who got the money?”

It gets even better.

3:02 -
Grayson: “Well, look at the next page [in Bernanke's written report], the very next page has the U.S. dollar nominal exchange rate, which shows a 20 percent increase in the U.S. dollar nominal exchange rate at exactly the same time that you were handing out half a trillion dollars. You think that’s a coincidence?”
Bernanke: “Yes.”
Grayson: “hah-hah-hah-hah!”

And really, can Ben Bernanke possibly be so ignorant of the history of the institution that he heads not to know what year the Federal Reserve Act was passed (under very shady circumstances) by the U.S. congress?

Anyone who is interested in the nefarious origins of the Federal Reserve must read the great book by G. Edward Griffin, “The Creature from Jeckyll Island.”

ABSTRACT

Cryptography is now much more than keeping credit card numbers safe from packet sniffers and laptop thieves. We combine several advances in cryptography theory to construct a model of computation in which a third party securely performs computations for a set of parties who do not trust one another. These parties encrypt their inputs to a computation, then circulate the encrypted values. Our third party decrypts them, performs the computation and then issues correctness proofs of the results: we cryptographically “tie its hands” to do the right thing. In addition to this model of provably correct computation, we will discuss other techniques to control the information flow of secret data to and from the party, so even the third party cannot profitably abuse the secret data before or after it knows it during the computation. Finally, we will illustrate the power of these techniques in e-commerce, and our design decisions, through secure electronic auctions and securities exchanges.

I wish to convert avi files to wmv files to watch on my xbox 360. But i have gone through a few programs with few satisfaction. Any Video Converter (what i currently use) is free, but is the slowest converter i have ever seen, and it also occasionally speeds up the video ahead of the audio. Vista dosent respond very well with Xilsoft products, so they didn’t work. I have tried a few more but they were not too "big name". Can someone show me a converter that does avi to wmv and is free, fast, and most importantly, preserves at least most of the video quality? Thanks a lot, if you’ve ever been in any video converting issue, you know how time consuming and frustrating it can be. Help is appriciated.

you can try this freeware software,it’s easy to use.
