You use a rice cooker? Harry, what the phuque is a rice cooker???? A kitchen electrical pot in which you place measured amounts of rice and water. It steams the rice until it is perfectly cooked. Mine is about the size of a two quart pot, and it has a glass cover. They're inexpensive. They're also called "rice steamers." Here's one: http://importfood.com/ricecooker.html Some oriental families I know have very large and somehow boxlike rice cookers. Chinese restaurants also use the bigger units. I thought a pot with a lid did just fine for the past 30 years. I guess I was wrong. :-) You was wrong. Actually, I use ours mostly when I am cooking a bunch of stuff at the same time in four or five pots and the oven. As you know, you have to keep an eye on rice to cook it properly, and the rice cooker not only keeps its eye on the rice, as it were, but it also frees up a cooktop burner. Please show me something that says to keep an eye on rice to cook it properly. If you've been raising the lid to look, no wonder a 'rice cooker' is your method of choice. For once, I have to agree with John. Perhaps some people have issues with measuring cups, or getting used to a particular stove. There are only 3 variables: Quantities, time and heat. Harry...tune into Emeril Live now and then. :-) Crap. If you're agreeing with me, I must be doing something wrong. : ) Damn, now I have to agree with Doug as well :-) He hit it on the nose.......quantities, time and heat. -- John H.

Fritz wrote: So, Fritz...when your wife dumped you, was it because of your excessive drinking or your physical abuse of her? Hey....stay on track. Respond to my brutal rice accusations, or be in contempt of court. Saving stovetop space is a valid point, but cooking rice properly? Now you're pushing it, Harry. :-) You've never overcooked rice and had it turn out dry or even burned while watching other pots on the stove? I have, but no more. I don't use Minute Rice. Most Chinese restaurants and most Japanese restaurants use rice cookers. They are good for more than just ordinary rice. Do you make homemade sushi? I do. With a rice cooker, you can make "sticky rice" properly so you can form it into the shapes you want for your sushi. I heard Fritz was divorced because, among other things, he burned cooking bag rice. Sticky rice comes out fine in a pot with a lid. I see harry continues with his lying ways........and proves he doesn't know how to cook either. -- John H. On the 'PocoLoco' out of Deale, MD |

He's having a hell of a time raising the child now because of his abusive nature. He's abusive to them, because he's not much of a man, and know it, so it helps his deflated ego. That's why he acts like such a childish ass here, too. That and the fact that his lover JimH eggs him on. |

Amazing. Kevin could not figure out the difference between libel and slander without a bitchslapping, can't figure out the proper use of "your" vs. "you're" or "there" and "their" yet he knows the law better than the law's author........and he wonders why he is still "King" What a mar00n. |

Section 421 of the Intelligence Identities Protection Act: You are a lawyer now Kevin? Amazing. No, stupid. He's one of the select few whose reading comprehension abilities fall into the category of "adult". I guess that rules you out. So all that is left on *your* side of the fence is Kevin Noble. You must be awful proud Dougy. And wrong ************************************************** ************************** ***** "It's time for a timeout on a misguided and mechanical investigation in which there is serious doubt that a crime was even committed. Federal courts have stated that a reporter should not be subpoenaed when the testimony sought is remote from criminal conduct or when there is no compelling "government interest," i.e., no crime. As two people who drafted and negotiated the scope of the 1982 Intelligence Identities Protection Act, we can tell you: The Novak column and the surrounding facts do not support evidence of criminal conduct. When the act was passed, Congress had no intention of prosecuting a reporter who wanted to expose wrongdoing and, in the process, once or twice published the name of a covert agent. Novak is safe from indictment. But Congress also did not intend for government employees to be vulnerable to prosecution for an unintentional or careless spilling of the beans about an undercover identity. A dauntingly high standard was therefore required for the prosecutor to charge the leaker. At the threshold, the agent must truly be covert. Her status as undercover must be classified, and she must have been assigned to duty outside the United States currently or in the past five years. This requirement does not mean jetting to Berlin or Taipei for a week's work. It means permanent assignment in a foreign country. Since Plame had been living in Washington for some time when the July 2003 column was published, and was working at a desk job in Langley (a no-no for a person with a need for cover), there is a serious legal question as to whether she qualifies as "covert." The law also requires that the disclosure be made intentionally, with the knowledge that the government is taking "affirmative measures to conceal [the agent's] relationship" to the United States. Merely knowing that Plame works for the CIA does not provide the knowledge that the government is keeping her relationship secret. In fact, just the opposite is the case. If it were known on the Washington cocktail circuit, as has been alleged, that Wilson's wife is with the agency, a possessor of that gossip would have no reason to believe that information is classified -- or that "affirmative measures" were being taken to protect her cover.
