clipper's remarks: (CNN) -- An owner of a 7-Eleven convenience store in Fort Hood, Texas, said Maj. Nidal Malik Hasan came in for coffee and hashbrowns most mornings, including the morning he allegedly shot dozens of soldiers.

Surveillance video from the store obtained by CNN shows a man who, according to the store owner, is Hasan at the cashier's counter at about 6:20 a.m. Thursday (7:20 a.m. ET) -- about seven hours before the mass shooting -- carrying a beverage and dressed in traditional Arab garb.

As more information becomes available on shooting suspect Maj. Nidal Malik Hasan; can the shooting spree be considered a terrorist attack on the base? Gen. Barry McCafferty said yes on Friday night. There were many red flags leading up to the shooting at Ft. Hood.

"This is a story that is going to get worse," said Gen. Barry McCafferty , U.S. Army (Ret.) on CNN's 360 . This is a domestic terrorist attack. He gave off signs of disloyalty to his own county," the general said.

Dr. Val Finnel, a student that went to class with suspect Hasan, commented on CNN that Hasan talked about the war in Iraq as a war on Islam, at a presentation he made during their environmental class in 2007.

Oakland's Peerless Coffee is still going strong

clipper's remarks: More:

Peerless' cupping room, in fact, might be the most charming around, with the same furniture that John Vukasinovich used decades ago lining its cramped quarters, along with a shiny new spittoon - essential for cupping.

"We thought for hygienic purposes, we should retire the old one," jokes George Jr.

Perhaps it will last into the next generation - there's already a fourth in the wings. Will Kristina's oldest son, 7-year-old John William, become the family's next great cupper?

"I hope," George Jr. says with smile. "Bring him on."

Clip Source: www.sfgate.com

When George Vukasin Sr. was approached by prospective buyers more than a decade ago, he asked his suitors why they wanted to purchase his family-run Peerless Coffee & Tea business.

Because you're too old, Vukasin was told.

"And they were right. They'd done their homework," the 76-year-old patriarch concedes. "But they didn't know that these two were coming into the business," he says, pointing at his oldest daughter, Kristina, and his son, George Jr.

Peerless celebrated its 85th anniversary last month, solidifying its status as one of the Bay Area's oldest - if least known - specialty coffee companies.

For them, crafting the perfect cup of coffee is both a science and an art. Even beans from the same region can vary wildly, as different elevations lead to different densities which lead to different roasting preferences.

And it's that winelike blending and appreciation that has top Bay Area restaurateurs swearing by Peerless.

clipper's remarks: I am so glad that children who won't be born for decades yet will be paying the interest on the money spent to keep the Merry-Go-Round Museum open. That must save or create a gajillion jobs.

Merry-Go-Round Museum receives federal funds

The shopping mall to nowhere; $5 million stimulus grant to heat an “almost-empty mall”

Stimulus grant pays to keep tabs on how often doctors and nurses wash their hands at hospitals in Maryland

Agency that misspent public funds on a casino junket and $700 worth of coffee and lost a child on a field trip slated to receive $159,000 in stimulus funds

Stimulus saves or creates jobs for illegal aliens; Company that the federal government knew was intentionally hiring hundreds of illegal immigrants awarded $6.7 million in federal contracts—including nearly $1million in stimulus money—during the past year

Nearly 10,000 employees who received pay increases being counted as jobs “saved” by the stimulus; “If I give you a raise, it is going to save a portion of your job,” explains government spokesman

Jeremy Laurance: A daily aspirin was good for us, then it was dangerous. So when can we trust expert guidance?

Every week, it seems a scientific study appears disproving what last week's study showed. Yesterday saw a classic medical volte face: aspirin, which has been prescribed to millions of people over the decades as a protective measure against heart disease

, may have more drawbacks than benefits, according to a review in the Drug and Therapeutics Bulletin.

After years of headlines about the benefits of aspirin,

"Aspirin is bad for you". In the last couple of weeks, we have also learnt that a father's presence at childbirth is bad for the mother, that drinking three cups of coffee a day protects against liver disease (for people with hepatitis C) and that consuming alcohol cuts a woman's chances of conceiving by IVF. Yet fathers have been encouraged to attend childbirth for decades, coffee has been implicated in umpteen health scares, and alcohol is known to be good for the heart.

DIY soap – cleaning up your act

Wed, 04 Nov 2009 14:28:49 GMT

clipped by: disenchantedcitizen
clipper's remarks: Half way recipes (in which you take a pure form of soap and spruce it up) can be easy to do at home. You can use Castille soap to make several varieties of body wash. Here is one recipe:
Vanilla Almond Soap

1/3 cup whole almonds
1 4-ounce bar Castille soap
1/4 cup distilled water
1 tablespoon almond oil
1/8 teaspoon vanilla essential oil

Grind the almonds in a food processor or coffee grinder. Using a cheese grater or a knife, shred the bar of Castille soap. Boil the water and add the shredded soap, stirring until you get a nice gooey texture. Reduce to a simmer and then add in the almond grinds, oil and vanilla. You can spoon the soap into molds (ice cubes can make little gift soaps) and let it sit for around five hours until it hardens.

The body wash and shampoo aisle is overwhelming. There are literally thousands of different soaps and shampoos “specially formulated” for your hair by people who have never seen your hair. Here are a few things to watch out for when buying soaps:

soap companies can put “natural” on just about anything

“fragrance” means a conglomeration of chemicals

avoid anything that has palm oil, as it is extremely unsustainably harvested

A great resource when purchasing health & beauty products is the good guide.

You can also look for local soap producers, and see if you can support their business and get clean, chemical free soap

Make sure to recycle old soap as well. If you have little nubs of bar soap you can use them for tailor’s chalk (dry soap makes little white marks on fabric), bubble baths, or save them and form a new bar with the leftovers.

Running Doc: Will drinking coffee really dehydrate me?

My husband says I should give up the coffee in the summer because the caffeine will dehydrate me.

Ellen: Continue to drink your coffee! Do not change your habits.

Your husband would have been correct if you asked that same question about a year ago. All the medical thinking backed up your husband's thoughts. Then, a number of studies showed that yes, caffeine is a dehydrating agent... if you use it for the first time and your body is not used to it. If caffeine is in your regular diet, it will not act as a dehydrating agent.

Some say caffeine is an ergogenic aid and pop No Doz to improve performance. As a physician, I do not recommend doing that, or increasing your normal caffeine consumption. Some still say that higher levels of caffeine put you at risk for heat illness. So stay within yourself and don't overdo it. And don't rub it in to your husband that you were right!
