Steaming-hot dumplings are popular snack foods all over China. Asian dumplings probably originated in Central Asia as peasant foods as far back as 600 A.D. They vary widely, but all consist of a filling wrapped in a thinly rolled flour and water dough, sealed by pressing or crimping the edges, and then boiled, steamed or pan-fried. They can be stuffed with pork, mutton, beef, fish, shrimp or thin noodles, usually with vegetables, commonly cabbage, scallions and Chinese chives. Accompanying dipping sauces are made with soy sauce, sesame oil, garlic, ginger, rice wine and/or chiles.

How To Win Every Argument
Sound reasoning is the basis of winning at argument. Logical fallacies undermine arguments. They are a source of enduring fascination, and have been studied for at least two-and-a-half millennia. Knowledge of them is useful, both to avoid those used inadvertently by others and even to use a few with intent to deceive. The fascination and the usefulness which they impart, however, should not be allowed to conceal the pleasure which identifying them can give. I take a very broad view of fallacies. Any trick of logic or language which allows a statement or a claim to be passed off as something it is not has an admission card to the enclosure reserved for fallacies. Very often it is the case that what appears to be a supporting argument for a particular contention does not support it at all. Sometimes it might be a deduction drawn from evidence which does not sustain it.

Discover 20 Things
Anyone who travels by air has good reason to be concerned. Besides post-9/11 jitters, we increasingly hear reports of flaws in the air traffic system, overworked flight controllers, computer failures at peak traffic hours, near misses in the air and on the ground. One carefully underreported threat (don’t panic the customers) is shoulder-fired surface-to-air missiles—easy to operate, inexpensive, and readily available—presently impossible for civilian airliners to defend against. Our airplanes are, if not sitting, at least slow-flying ducks for terrorists. Cited again and again is incompetence at all levels of the agencies tasked with aviation security. Most “security measures” supposedly in place to protect air travelers are highly cosmetic. Officials at the highest levels proclaim that “the government is doing everything in its power to counter terrorism.” We hope that this brief review of airport security—or lack thereof—will move readers to demand genuine, efficient action from people who know what they
are doing.

OReilly - Windows Vista Annoyances Tips, Secrets and Hacks
Sebastopol, CA--Windows Vista contains so many quirks, unaccountable behaviors, and confounding features that it almost seems to have been designed to vex its users. Unfortunately, as most Vista users are already dealing with job demands, impending deadlines, and assorted miscellaneous interruptions, they have little patience left for operating system foibles. The situation tends to make them annoyed.
But author David Karp has a different take. "Why suffer when you can take matters into your own hands?" he asks. Karp has a rare talent for helping cranky computer users become serene. His books have been alleviating the annoyances of computer users for many years, and his latest, Windows Vista Annoyances may be the timeliest of his works to date.
The book offers a wide-ranging collection of solutions, hacks, and time-saving tips for working around the most irritating features and getting Vista to do much more than Microsoft intended. The book helps you to:
Customize Windows Explorer, the desktop, Start menu, and Search tool to be less annoying and more useful
Explore, hack, and manage Vista's Registry
Enhance your experience with videos, photos, and music
Speed up your PC and improve performance, including the hard disk and Vista's Glass interface
Troubleshoot Vista when it won't start, won't add new hardware, or when it crashes applications
Get your local network running, make your wireless work, and improve your web and email experience
Protect your privacy and data with permissions, encryptions, and user account management
Automate Vista with scripts, Command Prompt batch files, Task Scheduler, and the Windows PowerShell
"To use Windows Vista is to be annoyed--and this book is the best way to solve any annoyances you come across," says Preston Gralla, author of Windows Vista in a Nutshell and Big Book of Windows Hacks, and a contributing editor to Computerworld. "Whether you want to speed up how long it takes Vista to load, power up Vista Search, or customize the supremely annoying User Account Control, you'll find something in here to help. It's the most comprehensive and entertaining guide you can get for turning Vista into an operating system that's a pleasure to use."
David A. Karp is the author of the bestselling Windows Annoyances series of books and the founder of Annoyances.org. He writes for PC Magazine and his latest books include eBay Hacks and eBay: The Missing Manual.

Martial Arts of the World An Encyclopedia
Editor Green (anthropology, Texas A&M Univ.) and 41 contributors have put together an introduction to nearly 100 martial arts from all over the world. The result is not a comprehensive overview, but it does give the reader a glimpse into martial arts beyond the familiar karate and kung fu. Some articles present a nation's or region's martial arts (Philippines and Africa, for example); others focus on specific martial arts, ranging from the well-known (karate, judo, fencing) to the not-so-known (silat, capoeira, kali, naginata-do) to the historical (dueling, medieval swordsmanship) to philosophical topics (religion and spiritual development, social uses of martial arts). The articles are an uneven mix of scholarly research and popular topics, and many are dryly academic. Martial arts experts will notice some errors and evidence of bias in several articles, but overall this is a useful introduction for martial arts practitioners and general readers. Libraries with a martial arts collection and larger public libraries should acquire this.
