The Ultimate Comeback Kid
ethany hamilton was only 13 when a horrific shark attack
almost took her life, leaving her with one arm and little hope of realizing her professional-surfi ng dreams. But less than a month later, the determined teen was back in the water, fearlessly learning how to rebalance her body and master
the board again. Hamilton’s optimism and perseverance captured the world’s attention, and now you can catch her dramatic saga in the fi lm Soul Surfer, starring AnnaSophia Robb. “I realized that telling my life story could change people’s perspectives on hard times they’re going through,” says Hamilton, 21, who has published fi ve nonfi ction books that refl ect her strong sense of spirituality. During one humanitarian trip to Thailand in 2005, the same year she won a national surfi ng championship, she led 50 children, many orphaned by the tsunami in late ’04, into the water for the fi rst time. “Helping them overcome their fear of the ocean was a great opportunity,” she says. “There aren’t a lot of good role models out there, so it’s cool that I could be one.” She turned pro in 2007 and now travels the world on the surfi ng circuit. On the set, Hamilton—who did all the post-injury surfi ng in the fi lm—made a fast friend in Robb. “Bethany looks at the attack as a blessing because she’s been able to do so much through it,” says the 17-year-old actress. “She could have been a one-week news story, but now she’s inspiring millions.” —Mary Margaret

1Get Your Airline Ticket First Prices are rising, so the sooner
you fi nalize your airfare, the better. You’ll have plenty of time to book a hotel afterward, because there tend to be more lodging options.
2 Compare Websites
Check all three big travel sites—Expedia, Travelocity, and Orbitz. Each strikes different deals with different airlines. If you don’t have to travel on a specifi c date, check within a three-day range—the price can vary substantially.
3 Be Flexible on Timing
Choose the “anytime” option when asked what hour of the day you want to fl y, then compare prices within a 24-hour period.
4Package It
Keep an eye out for air+hotel packages on the same sites. These are generally big hotels and resorts with lots of rooms to fi ll.
5 Call Frequently
If you want to use your frequent-fl ier miles, call the airline three or four days in a row—things open up daily.

HISTORYRELIVING
At 4:30 a.m. on April 12, 1861, a single mortar round was � red on Fort Sumter, S.C.,
and the Civil War began. By the time it ended in 1865, approximately 620,000 soldiers’ lives
had been lost, and America had changed in profound, immutable ways. One hundred and
� � y years later, we’re still examining why. Here, director Robert Redford talks about his new
� lm, The Conspirator, the story of the lone woman implicated in the plot to kill Abraham
Lincoln. Historian Jon Meacham explores the war’s legacy in politics today. Finally, for bu� s
and novices alike, we o� er expert picks for the best Civil War artifacts, movies, and books.
Above, Robin Wright and James McAvoy in The Conspirator. Of Wright, Redford says, “She had all
the qualities needed to play Mary Surratt—the repose, the dignity.” Below, the director on location in Savannah, Ga.

‘History Is Telling Us Something’Director Robert Redford
tackles the tensions of
post–Civil War America
BY JAMIE MALANOWSKI
Robert Redford’s new movie, The Conspirator (in theaters April 15), tells the story of a little-known chapter in American history: the trial of Mary Surratt, the owner of a Washington boardinghouse who was accused of being a part of John Wilkes Booth’s plot to assas-sinate President Lincoln. It’s a gripping drama about the tension between security and justice, be-tween government protection and government aggression, that reso-nates strongly today. Director Redford talks to PARADE about what it takes to bring history to life.
What appealed to you about The Conspirator?I’m always drawn to stories that people don’t know about, particularly when they’re inside of a story that everyone knows about. I got caught up in the characters of Mary Surratt [played by Robin Wright], who’s been charged with this terrible crime, and Frederick Aiken [ James McAvoy], her
lawyer. The dynamic between the two was very compelling. He’d been a Union soldier who almost sacrifi ced his life in that cause, who didn’t want to participate in the trial—he thought it was a betrayal of his comrades, and he thought she was guilty. She was a woman who was presumed to be guilty and whose only recourse, considering the way the deck was stacked against her, was to behave with as much dignity as she could muster and to protect her son, who was also a suspect in the case.
Mary was tried before a military court. With Guantánamo and other tribunals in the news, the contemporary relevance of the story must have appealed to you.Obviously, I could see the parallels to the present, and I knew that this could be dangerous for me, because people see me as a liberal and might pigeonhole me and the fi lm as having some partisan point of view. But I don’t feel that the political fi lms I’ve made have been partisan criticisms of the left or right, but criticisms of the political process itself. I’m not inventing anything [about Mary Surratt’s trial]—I’m just putting a spotlight on it. The other factor for me, having experienced what I’ve experienced in my lifetime, is how could I not see patterns in our history? And one of the biggest patterns I’ve noticed is that whenever there’s chaos, there’s ambiguity, and where there’s ambiguity, there’s fear. And fear gets manipulated.
What makes for good leadership in times of chaos and ambiguity?
You have to have courage beyond reason. You might even have to be slightly foolhardy. In this fi lm, we don’t really take a side. I’m trying to put a light on the ambiguity [produced by the chaos of Lincoln’s assassination] and how that gets worked by somebody like Edwin Stanton [Kevin Kline], the secretary of war. Stanton could be considered the villain here, but you’ve got to give him his due. Robert E. Lee’s army surrendered only fi ve days before the assassina-tion. Other Rebel armies were still in the fi eld. How does he know what else is coming? He thinks, “I have to get this thing shut down quickly, even if I have to violate the Constitution. I have to drive a stake into this threat.” You can’t ignore that point of view.
Prior to making this fi lm, did you have a particular interest in the Civil War?I had ancestors in both the North and the South; my father’s family was from New England, and my mother’s was from Texas. But I never had the kind of interest you could attach “-phile” to—for example, “Lincoln-phile” or “Civil War–phile.” It’s been eye-opening to discover just how many Civil War–philes there are. There’s something special about these stories that draws people in.
Is it diffi cult to get people to see historical fi lms?No, but you need story and characters. If it’s just pageantry, audiences will get bored. It was the same with All the President’s Men. History would take care of Nixon

8 • April 10, 2011
s the nation prepares to
mark the 150th anniversary of the start of the Civil War this month, we are learning anew the truth of William Faulkner’s observation that the past is
never dead; it isn’t even past. In Mississippi, the Sons of Confederate Veterans has
provoked controversy by proposing a commemorative license plate honoring Gen. Nathan Bedford Forrest, who was also a leading member of the Ku Klux Klan. In Marshall, Ark., a mayor was ostensibly rebuked by his own city council after he fl ew the Confederate fl ag to honor Robert E. Lee on Martin Luther King Jr.’s birthday. And at Florida’s Gainesville State College, a painting showing a Confederate fl ag with Klansmen and a lynching sparked weeks of debate and was even-tually removed from a faculty art show.
No one refi ghts the Revolution or World Wars I or II, but what President Abraham Lincoln termed our “fi ery trial” has proved to be an American war without end. From Appomattox forward, how we see the Civil War reveals much about what Dr. King called “the con-tent of our character.”
Following World War II, with Jim Crow under at-tack, many Southerners reached back to the 1860s for imagery to lend historical drama and credibility to their resistance. After South Carolina’s Strom Thurmond defected from the Democratic Party in 1948 to form the pro-segregation Dixiecrats, he was greeted by sup-porters in the South waving Confederate fl ags. That same year, Ole Miss added the playing of “Dixie,” the
unoffi cial anthem of the Confederacy, to its football pageantry. During the integration decisions of the 1950s, Georgia altered its fl ag to include the Confeder-ate battle emblem. Ultimately, though, the bigotry and brutality of white authorities could not withstand the forces of justice and equality, and the Civil Rights Act was passed in 1964.
Today, a new battle for history is being waged, with political conservatives casting the Civil War as a strug-gle against Big Government, with only tangential con-nections to slavery. These neo-Confederates contend that one can honor the South’s heritage without con-doning its institutionalized racism. But as a historian and as a Southerner, I believe that is a losing cause. Without what our seventh vice president, John C. Cal-houn, called the South’s “peculiar domestic institution,” there would have been no Civil War. There can be no revision of this inescapable reality.
Some conservatives in Virginia have said they see the current battles against health-care reform and climate-
change laws as “a continuation of the efforts by Jef-ferson Davis and the other secessionists in the 1860s,” according to the Washington Post. One member of the Virginia Division of the Sons of Confederate Veterans said that Rebels “were fi ghting for the same things that people in the ‘Tea Party’ are fi ghting for now.”
This year, as the 2012 presidential campaign gets under way, two powerful forces will intersect: the com-memorations of the
AA
NAACP members and other demonstrators protesting December’s Secession Ball in South Carolina

The Civil War’s true legacy must be remembered:
Then and now, prejudice will not be tolerated.

MY TOP FIVE
CIVIL WAR FILMS
Robert Osborne, host of Turner Classic
Movies, lists his favorites. TCM is
airing films about the era on Monday
and Wednesday nights throughout April.
The General (1927)This Buster Keaton comedy is one of the most accurate re-creations of the era. The story is based on fact—in 1862, Union spies stole the General, a Confederate train —and it always makes me laugh.
Gone with the Wind (1939)Not a single scene occurs on a battlefi eld per se, but no other fi lm so fully captures what’s at stake on a personal and social level during war and how much devastation it can cause. Even after 72 years, the movie impresses and overwhelms.
The Red Badge of Courage (1951)Director John Huston, working from a screenplay he adapted from the novel, knew of the damage war can infl ict on a person. This fi lm depicts the inner stories of young soldiers and their days of tedium and moments of sheer terror.
Friendly Persuasion (1956)Thanks to producer/director William Wyler and his cast, this beautifully shows the war’s impact on a Quaker family. It’s the best fi lm from the third act of Gary Cooper’s career, with a superb Tony Perkins in his fi rst act.
Glory (1989)A moving tribute to the little-recognized freed slaves who served in the Union army. Impressively directed by Edward Zwick, it’s fi lled with exceptional performances, especially those from Morgan Freeman and Denzel Washington (below), who won an Oscar.

ARICEPT PATIENT PACKAGE INSERT
ARICEPT® (Air-eh-sept)(donepezil hydrochloride) tablets • Tablets: 5 mg, 10 mg, and 23 mg
ARICEPT® ODT (Air-eh-sept oh-dee-tee)(donepezil hydrochloride) orally disintegrating tablets• ODT Tablets: 5 mg and 10 mg
Read the Patient Information that comes with ARICEPT before the patient starts taking it and each time you get a refill. There may be new information. This leaflet does not take the place of talking with the doctor about Alzheimer’s disease or treatment for it. If you have questions, ask the doctor or pharmacist.
What is ARICEPT?ARICEPT comes as ARICEPT film-coated tablets in dosage strengths of 5 mg, 10 mg, and 23 mg, and as ARICEPT Orally Disintegrating Tablets (ODT; 5 mg and 10 mg). Except where indicated, all the information about ARICEPT in this leaflet also applies to ARICEPT ODT.
ARICEPT is a prescription medicine to treat mild, moderate and severe Alzheimer’s disease. ARICEPT can help with mental function and with doing daily tasks. ARICEPT does not work the same in all people. Some people may: • Seem much better • Get better in small ways or stay the same • Get worse over time but slower than expected • Not change and then get worse as expected
ARICEPT does not cure Alzheimer’s disease. All patients with Alzheimer’s disease get worse over time, even if they take ARICEPT.
ARICEPT has not been approved as a treatment for any medical condition in children.
Who should not take ARICEPT?The patient should not take ARICEPT if allergic to any of the ingredients in ARICEPT or to medicines that contain piperidines. Ask the patient’s doctor if you are not sure. See the end of this leaflet for a list of ingredients in ARICEPT.
What should I tell the doctor before the patient takes ARICEPT?Tell the doctor about all the patient’s present or past health problems. Include:
Tell the doctor about all the medicines the patient takes, including prescription and non-prescription medicines, vitamins, and herbal products. ARICEPT and other medicines may affect each other.
Be particularly sure to tell the doctor if the patient takes aspirin or medicines called nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). There are many NSAID medicines, both prescription and non-prescription. Ask the doctor or pharmacist if you are not sure if any of the patient’s medicines are NSAIDs. Taking NSAIDs and ARICEPT together may make the patient more likely to get stomach ulcers.
ARICEPT taken with certain medicines used for anesthesia may cause side effects. Tell the responsible doctor or dentist that the patient takes ARICEPT before the patient has: • surgery • medical procedures • dental surgery or procedures.
Know the medicines that the patient takes. Keep a list of all the patient’s medicines. Show it to the doctor or pharmacist before the patient starts a new medicine.
How should the patient take ARICEPT? • Give ARICEPT exactly as prescribed by the doctor. Do not stop ARICEPT or change
the dose yourself. Talk with the doctor first. • Give ARICEPT one time each day. ARICEPT can be taken with or without food. • ARICEPT 23 mg tablets should be swallowed whole without the tablets being split,
crushed or chewed.
• ARICEPT ODT melts on the tongue. The patient should drink some water after the tablet melts.
• If you miss giving the patient a dose of ARICEPT, just wait. Give only the next dose at the usual time. Do not give 2 doses at the same time.
• If ARICEPT is missed for 7 days or more, talk with the doctor before starting again. • If the patient takes too much ARICEPT at one time, call the doctor or poison
control center, or go to the emergency room right away.
What are the possible side effects of ARICEPT?ARICEPT may cause the following serious side effects: • slow heartbeat and fainting. This happens more often in people with heart
problems. Call the doctor right away if the patient faints while taking ARICEPT. • more stomach acid. This raises the chance of ulcers and bleeding, especially when
taking ARICEPT 23 mg. The risk is higher for patients who had ulcers, or take aspirin or other NSAIDs.
• worsening of lung problems in people with asthma or other lung disease. • seizures. • difficulty passing urine.
Call the doctor right away if the patient has:
The most common side effects of ARICEPT are:
These side effects may get better after the patient takes ARICEPT for a while. This is not a complete list of side effects with ARICEPT. For more information, ask the doctor or pharmacist.
Call your doctor for medical advice about side effects. You may report side effects to FDA at 1-800-FDA-1088.
How should ARICEPT be stored ?Store ARICEPT at room temperature between 59° to 86°F (15° to 30°C).
Keep ARICEPT and all medicines out of the reach of children.
General information about ARICEPTMedicines are sometimes prescribed for conditions that are not mentioned in this Patient Information Leaflet. Do not use ARICEPT for a condition for which it was not prescribed. Do not give ARICEPT to people other than the patient, even if they have the same symptoms as the patient, as it may harm them.
This leaflet summarizes the most important information about ARICEPT. If you would like more information talk with the patient’s doctor. You can ask your pharmacist or doctor for information about ARICEPT that is written for health professionals. For more information, go to www.ARICEPT.com, or call 1-800-760-6029.

Many weekends throughout the year,
TJ and Susan Youhn of Hollywood, Md.,
and their daughter, Amelia, put down
their cellphones, pack up their cars, and
leave home for the battlefields of the
19th century. The Youhns are among the
estimated 50,000 Civil War reenactors
in the U.S. Here, they explain the lure
of the past.
What Reenacting Is “There are two kinds of events,” Amelia says. “The larg-er ones, like Gettysburg, are basically big shows with battles. The living histo-ries are smaller. We go to schools or homes, interact with the public, and show what life was like back then.”What Reenactors Do “I’m a sergeant with the 20th Maine infantry, a Union regiment that helped win the Battle of Gettysburg,” TJ says. “A women’s auxil-iary group followed them and took care of them, and Susan is part of that. We’ve been doing it for 20 years, since Amelia
was only 6 weeks old, and we go out around 25 times a year.” What Their Friends
Think “I call it my secret life. Some people think it’s cool, but most don’t understand it,” says Amelia, a junior at John-son & Wales University in Providence, R.I.How Much It Costs “An infantryman’s outfit—uniform, boots, hat, weapon, tent—may run $2,500. Ladies’ clothes are more expensive,” TJ says. Susan adds, “Dresses need to be custom-made, and I wear seven layers of clothes when I’m fully dressed.”The Best Part “The dances!” Amelia says. “The larger events have balls, and they’re great social gatherings.”What a Battle’s Like “It’s a real-life re-creation,” Amelia says. “There’s a
commentator, and you get to see strate-gies play out. When someone goes down, a ‘surgeon’ makes sure he’s not hurt. It’s frowned upon for soldiers to get up and move after they’ve been hit.”Why They Do It “Re enacting is addictive, but the same can be said of any hobby,” TJ says. “Some people sail boats or fl y planes. This is just a labor of love.”

MY TOP FIVE
CIVIL WAR READS
James McPherson, Princeton University professor and author of Battle Cry of Freedom, recommends these books.
The War for the Union, by Allan Nevins (4 vols.) Written from a national perspective, it’s the most comprehensive account of the war.
The Civil War, by Shelby Foote (3 vols.) A masterful, fl owing his-tory, with a Southern point of view.
The Killer Angels, by Michael Shaara A striking novel about Gettysburg that employs characters from both sides to show some of the reasons the war was fought.
The Confeder-ate War, by Gary W. Gallagher A brief but pow-erful analysis of what the war meant—for the Confederate Rebels and for the nation.
— Pat Boone
F olks are o� en amazed when I tell them I am 76 years old and full of
youthful energy.Perhaps you wonder whether I
have some secret for maintaining good health to share with you . . .
Well, one of my secrets is performing simple exercises that strengthen my heart muscle. My cardio routine is simple: I swim, bicycle, and even play tennis.
And my doctor tells me I still have an “athlete’s heart,” with a usual pulse of 70 beats per minute.
As Chauncey Crandall, M.D., one of America’s top cardiolo-gists, explains, your heart rate is a key to long life — and closely related to high blood
pressure, your number one risk factor for heart disease.
If your pulse rate is 85, your heart will contract its power-ful muscle 122,400 times each day. Multiply that over just 40 years, and your heart will beat 1.8 billion times!
But, drop your rate to 72 beats per minute, you can eliminate the wear and tear of 280 million wasted heart contrac-tions over the same 40 years. And lower your risk of high blood pressure and heart disease, too.
So how do you do this? First,
you need to monitor your pulse regularly. To do this, I use the Heart Rate Monitor Watch.
It’s a stylish but simple wrist watch that monitors both time and heart rate. In fact, I can see
what my heart is doing at any moment.
Now, the Heart Rate M o n i t o r Watch usu-ally sells for $49.95.
But my readers can get a great deal with this incredible watch for just $7.95 — a savings of $42!
PLUS, you’ll get 2 free issues of Health Radar, a monthly health newsletter I read to help
me stay young.With your Heart Rate
Monitor Watch for only $7.95 (just pay $5.95 shipping) — you’ll also get another great FREE pub-lication, Newsmax magazine, for 4 months. In all, this is a free value of $59!
P.S. : Dr. Crandall has also o� ered to include another free gi� — his Special Report on how to lower your own heart rate safely — if you order directly from this article.
So get this special watch, plus 3 bonuses, today — don’t delay.
If you care about your health, I hope you won’t pass up this o� er.
Pat says this stylish watch also monitors his heart rate — keeping him young.

and his misdeeds, but what made that fi lm work was the relationship between Woodward and Bernstein, men who were pretty dissimilar and who didn’t much like one another but who learned how to work together. To me, that was the story, set against the backdrop of the Watergate scandal. It’s the same thing here—the relationship between Mary and Frederick, set against this trial.
Do we learn from history?No. It’s sad to say, but we have a short attention span, and there are so many patterns of mistakes that we don’t learn from. Just look at the story behind this fi lm.

Stay Healthy
Are You Vitamin-Savvy?You could be missing out on important bene� ts—or doing yourself more harm than good. Stay safe by avoiding these four common mistakes.
1Downing your multi-
vitamin with water—
and nothing else. Many vitamins—including A, E, D, and K—are fat soluble, meaning they need to be eaten along with fat for your body to fully absorb them. That’s why most experts recommend taking multis with a meal. “Doing so also reduces vitamin-related stomach upset,” says Ro-berta Anding of the American Dietetic Association. Need to swallow your multi on the run? Pop a fi sh oil sup-plement at the same time.
2Taking vitamins to
make up for a bad diet.
There’s a reason they’re called supplements: Vita-mins alone aren’t enough to reduce your risk for disease. “In addition to taking a daily multi, it’s important to eat a diet rich in fruits, veggies, whole grains, and healthy fats,” says Dr. Victor Sierpina, professor of integrative medicine at the University of Texas Medical Branch in Galveston.
3Assuming that higher
doses = more health
benefi ts. “In many cases, the opposite is true,” says Dr. Sierpina. For example, too much iron increases the risk of cardiovascular problems. Anding suggests sticking to the recommended dietary allowance (printed on most labels) and taking a multivita-min instead of single supple-ments unless you’ve been diagnosed with a specifi c defi ciency or are otherwise instructed by your doctor.
4Keeping quiet about
what you take. “Seventy-fi ve percent of Americans don’t tell their physicians about their vitamin intake,” Anding says. “That’s a problem—vitamins can have drug-like effects. For exam-ple, very high doses of fi sh oil can inhibit blood clotting. Plus, vitamins can make some prescription medica-tions more or less effective.” Anding advises keeping a list of your supplements (dos-age, frequency, and brand) in your wallet so it’s always handy. —Camille Noe Pagán

Why are scandalous families like the Borgias so fascinating?Whether it be in The Borgias or Shakespeare or The Godfather, we love watching people doing what we
don’t dare do. Murder and mayhem, from the safe position of our arm-chairs, can be delightful.
What will audiences make of Rodrigo Borgia, who became Pope Alexander VI in 1492 but kept multiple mistresses?He wouldn’t see that as hypocritical. He wasn’t a god—he was a man, and man was born a sinner. He’s rather endearing, in a strange way. He’s as pathetic as all men are. They want everything, don’t they?
Will people be surprised at the brutal Vatican politics?The Vatican at that time was noth-
ing like it is now. In a way, it was a medieval West Wing—the center of power in the known world.
Sundays have changed since Borgia days. What do they mean for you?I’m a bit sorry we have all the shops open. But we all have to be encour-aged to buy, buy, buy, to keep society going, so I suppose one has to ac-cept that. For me, it’s a day I can have a lie-in and a relaxed brunch. I think we need a down day. Other-wise we’d just go bananas.
Your 25-year-old son, Max, is co-starring in Red Riding Hood. What’s it been like watching him deal with the publicity? Well, it fi lls me with con-cern. I’m very happy he’s doing what he loves. But my nightmare as a young actor was to be
taken up too quickly. A plant needs to get its roots into the soil before it can withstand the wind and the ice and the cold. Nowadays, the busi-ness has a huge appetite for youth and tends, when it’s tired of it, to spit it out. But I think he’s got his head screwed on quite straight.
You’ve played some very dark roles. Which gave you the most pause before saying yes?I think Reversal of Fortune, because the protagonists [Claus and Sunny von Bülow] were still alive—or partly alive, anyway. But Glenn Close persuaded me that if I didn’t do it, someone else would. And I knew Lolita would cause fi reworks. I said to my agent, “You’d better get me a wage that will keep me the next three years, because I don’t think I’ll work much after this.” That was indeed what happened.
You’re skilled at sailing the ocean and riding horses and motorcycles fast—not the safest activities. Are you a daredevil?Living on the edge, for me, has al-ways been one of life’s great plea-sures. It’s not really the speed; it’s the fact that you have to do it well in order to survive.
Ever pushed it too far?Oh, I have. At any time, you can tumble, but that adds to the fris-son. It reminds you there is an edge. And I think we need con-
stant reminders: The edge is there. Don’t fall over it.

If there’s a cad or a creep to be played, Jeremy Irons’s antennae shoot up. “Charac-ters who live on the outer
edge of acceptable behavior have always been to my taste,” says the Oscar winner, now starring as the power-mad patriarch of Showtime’s series The Borgias (Sundays, 10 p.m. ET/PT). Irons, 62, chats with Steve Daly about his affi nity for sinners.

On Saturday afternoons when I was young, my father would take me to the
fi sh markets on Brady Street in Milwaukee. One of his favorite dishes was spaghetti alle vongole , so it was very much a part of my childhood. I now serve
a slightly more Italianate version in my restaurant [Bartolotta] at Wynn Las Vegas. Every time I eat it—and I eat it probably three nights a week—I feel like I’m closer to my dad. It was the last dish I ever cooked for him. To me, that’s a big deal.
1. Wash clams carefully.
2. Bring a large pot of salted
water to boil. Add spaghetti and
cook about 8 minutes, until it’s
al dente. Drain but do not rinse.
3. In a large pan, sauté garlic
in 3 Tbsp olive oil over medium-
high until translucent. Add
clams; season with salt and
crushed red pepper.
4. Add white wine; cook over
medium-high about 5 minutes,
or until clams steam open and
liquid is reduced by half.
5. Add cherry tomatoes; cook
until soft.
6. Gently toss with cooked
pasta; add parsley and drizzle
with 2 Tbsp olive oil. Serve
immediately.

LEGAL NOTICE OF PROPOSED CLASS ACTION SETTLEMENT
THIS IS NOT AN ADVERTISEMENT OR ATTORNEY SOLICITATION.
THIS NOTICE MAY CONCERN YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS IF YOU ACCESSED AN INTERNET SITE OPERATED OR SERVICED BY DEMAND MEDIA, INC., HULU, LLC, JIBJAB MEDIA, INC., NBC
UNIVERSAL, INC., NEWS CORP., SCRIBD, INC., VIACOM INC., THE WALT DISNEY CO. OR WARNER BROS. RECORDS, OR ANY INTERNET SITE EMPLOYING QUANTCAST, CLEARSPRING
OR VIDEOEGG TECHNOLOGIES BETWEEN JUNE 1, 2008 and MARCH 3, 2011.
This Notice is being published because a settlement has been proposed by all parties in the following class action
matters pending in the United States District Court, Central District Of California, Western Division:
In Re Quantcast Advertising Cookie Litig., No. 2:10-cv-05484-GW
Davis v. VideoEgg, Inc., No. 2:10-cv-07112-GW In Re Clearspring Flash Cookie Litig.,
NO. 2:10-CV-05948-GW WHAT IS THIS NOTICE FOR? This Notice is being published by order of the Court, before the Court considers final approval of the proposed Settlement, and is meant to inform you of actions you may take in response to the proposed Settlement. x You may do nothing and be bound by the Settlement, if
the Court approves it. x You also may object to the proposed Settlement, or opt
out of it, by following the instructions in this Notice. x The Court will hold a hearing about the Settlement,
which you may attend. This Notice summarizes some of the information related to the proposed Settlement. For more details, go to www.flashcookiesettlement.com. WHAT ARE THESE LAWSUITS ABOUT? Quantcast Corporation, Clearspring Technologies, Inc., VideoEgg, Inc. and other companies allegedly deposited browser “cookies” and Adobe Flash Player local shared objects (LSOs) on users’ computers when users visited any of tens of millions of pages on the Internet. (VideoEgg does not use browser cookies). Browsing programs may not manage LSOs, so LSOs may be deposited even when users set their browsers to block browser cookies. Plaintiffs allege that, in some cases with some defendants, after users deleted browser cookies, information from LSOs was used to “respawn” those deleted browser cookies. The Plaintiffs allege that the Defendants and their affiliates did not give users adequate notice and choice about their use of LSOs. The Defendants deny this. WHAT DOES THE SETTLEMENT DO? The proposed Settlement would resolve these lawsuits before the Court takes a position on which side is right. As part of the Settlement, Quantcast, Clearspring, and VideoEgg state that they do not and will not use LSOs to respawn browser cookie information to serve as an undisclosed alternative to browser cookies for tracking users online, or otherwise to counteract users’ decisions to block or delete browser cookies. Other defendants and their affiliates agree to take significant future measures to enhance consumers’ online privacy.
This is not a Settlement in which Class Members will receive compensation directly. Under the proposed settlement agreement, subject to Court review and approval, Quantcast, Clearspring, and VideoEgg together will contribute $3,225,000 to two Settlement Funds. After payment of attorneys’ fees and costs (no more than $806,250), small payments to the representative plaintiffs and administration costs, the bulk of the Settlement Fund will be distributed among Court-approved non-profit groups engaged in research and education that promote consumer awareness and choice regarding privacy, safety, and security of the electronic information. AM I AFFECTED? Quantcast, Clearspring, and VideoEgg technologies have been used on tens of thousands of web pages, including the heavily-trafficked websites of the Defendants and their affiliates. For these reasons, substantially all U.S. persons who have used the Internet since June 1, 2008, likely are members of the class. Clearspring LSOs can be identified by a filename of “clearspring.sol.” Quantcast LSOs can be identified by filenames that include “____qca.sol” or “Quantserve.” VideoEgg LSOs can be identified by filenames that include “admanager.sol” that originated from core.videoegg.com. WHAT ARE MY OPTIONS? Do nothing: If you are a Class Member and do nothing, you will be legally bound by the Settlement, and you will be giving up the right to sue the Defendants or their affiliates over claims related to or arising out of the use of LSOs. Opt out: If you do not want to be legally bound by the Settlement, you must exclude yourself, as to Quantcast and Clearspring by May 13, 2011, or, as to VideoEgg, by June 10, 2011, or you will not be able to sue the Defendants and their affiliates for the claims listed in the settlement agreement. Object: If you wish to object to the terms of the settlement, you must file your objection as to Quantcast and Clearspring by May 13, 2011, or, as to VideoEgg, by June 10, 2011. Only members of the Settlement Class who have not opted out may object to the settlement. Opt-out elections and objections must be received no later than the ab ove-stated dates at this address:
Flash Cookie Settlement Claims Administrator c/o Rosenthal & Company LLC
P.O. Box 6177, Novato, CA 94948-6177 Attend the settlement hearings: On June 13, 2011, at 9:30 a.m., the Court will hold a hearing to consider granting final approval to the proposed Settlement as to Quantcast and Clearspring. The Court will hold a hearing as to the VideoEgg settlement on July 18, 2011 at 9:30 a.m. You do not have to attend either hearing.

Civil War and the opposition to President Obama’s policies. As groups in the South reenact historical moments—the Sons of Confederate Veterans in South Carolina has already held a “Secession Ball”—the rhetoric of resistance to Washington will inevitably resonate. While politicians and citizens contin-ue to debate the size and shape of our government, Confeder-ate symbols and the language of “states’ rights” will be in the air.
At such a charged moment, we must remember our nation’s history fully, not selectively. If we truly want to be faithful stewards of the past, Americans need to recall what the war was about: slavery and the defi ni-tion of human liberty. And the Civil War’s true legacy is not about Big Government or to-day’s political skirmishing—it’s about a nation’s obligation to live up to the best part of itself. Slavery was an evil, and it had to be defeated.
As we refl ect on the war, let us never forget that it was fought to rid us of a monumen-tal prejudice and that we must remain vigilant about confront-ing inequality in our time. On the war’s eve, Lincoln hoped that we might be touched by the “better angels of our na-ture.” That’s a prayer worth re-peating now, and always.

Besides killing E. coli, hydrogen
peroxide also destroys botulism, salmo-
nella and other harmful organisms. It
works by making viruses and bacteria
self-destruct on the cellular level. Amaz-
ingly, for something so powerful, hydrogen
peroxide is safe. That’s because after it
makes germs self-destruct, hydrogen
peroxide breaks down into harmless
water.
The Magic of Hydrogen Peroxide
book is a valuable health improvement
treasure that also shows you how to
make tons of household cleaners that
work better and more economically
than expensive store-bought products.
It’s a safe powerful alternative to harsh
chemical cleaners. Discover easy-to-
