Want your bread to look like the loaves in the window of a French bakery? Just sprinkle a little flour on top after it bakes.
How to Make It
Combine first 4 ingredients in a 2-cup liquid measuring cup; let stand 5 minutes. Stir in apple butter. Combine yeast mixture, bread flour, and next 3 ingredients in a large mixing bowl; beat at medium speed of an electric mixer until well blended.
Sprinkle wheat germ evenly over work surface. Turn dough out onto surface, and knead until smooth and elastic (about 10 minutes). Place in a bowl coated with cooking spray, turning to coat top. Cover and let rise in a warm place (85°), free from drafts, 50 minutes or until doubled in bulk.
Punch dough down, and shape into an 8-inch round loaf. Place loaf on a baking sheet coated with cooking spray. Cover and let rise in a warm place, free from drafts, 30 minutes or until doubled in bulk. Brush loaf with milk. Bake at 425° for 10 minutes. Reduce oven temperature to 375°, and bake 10 additional minutes or until loaf sounds hollow when tapped. Remove loaf from baking sheet immediately; cool on a wire rack. Cut loaf into wedges.

The study of the microbiome, the totality of all microbes inhabiting the host or an environmental niche, has experienced exponential growth over the past few years. The microbiome contributes functional genes and metabolites, and is an important factor for maintaining health. In this context, metabolomics is increasingly applied to complement sequencing-based approaches (marker genes or shotgun metagenomics) to enable resolution of microbiome-conferred functionalities associated with health. However, analyzing the resulting multi-omics data remains a significant challenge in current microbiome studies. In this review, we provide an overview of different computational approaches that have been used in recent years for integrative analysis of metabolome and microbiome data, ranging from statistical correlation analysis to metabolic network-based modeling approaches. Throughout the process, we strive to present a unified conceptual framework for multi-omics integration and interpretation, as well as point out potential future directions. View Full-Text

Grit Real Estate Income Group Limited (LON:GR1T) has acquired an additional 25% stake in the Mukuba Mall in Zambia in a US$8.2mln deal.
The Africa-focused property investor said following the transaction, it would own 75% of the mall's holding entity, Mukuba Mall Limited, having previously held a stake of 50%.
READ: Grit Real Estate expects more rental growth after interim jump
Mukuba is located in Kitwe, Zambia's second-largest city and one of its most developed industrial and commercial areas.
It is one of three Zambian malls that Grit has a stake in, with its portfolio also including 50% holdings in the Kafubu and Cosmopolitan malls, valued at US$13mln and US$40.5mln respectively. The firm's previous 50% holding in Mukuba was valued at US$38.5mln.
Bronwyn Corbett, chief executive of Grit, said the increased holding was expected to deliver "further value" to investors, and that since taking its initial 50% stake, the firm had seen "positive valuation uplift, rental growth and low vacancy" at the property.
The investment also increased Grit's exposure to convenience retail, which Corbett said had proven to be "the most resistant subsector" to downturns in the retail market.
Shares in Grit were steady at 1.4p in early-afternoon trading Tuesday.

KIDDIECARE: Lawmakers Want Pregnant Women Covered
A new measure -- proposed jointly by "long-time foes on abortion issues," Rep. Nita Lowey (D-NY) and Rep. Henry Hyde (R-IL) -- would "extend government-paid health care coverage to more uninsured pregnant women," the New York Daily News reports. The bill would permit states to use funding they are slated to receive under the $24 billion Children's Health Insurance Program to cover women whose incomes are between 175% of federal poverty level -- the Medicaid cutoff -- and 225% of the poverty level. Lowey, "a leading pro-choice spokeswoman," said, "Although I disagree with Henry Hyde on the issue of abortion, we absolutely agree that no woman in America should go without health coverage during pregnancy." Lowey's office cited statistics indicating that 5% of New York City moms in 1996 were uninsured. Hyde, "a long-time abortion foe, said the bill 'offers important safeguards to women who are waiting in great anticipation of one day giving life to healthy children'" (5/8).This is part of the California Healthline Daily Edition, a summary of health policy coverage from major news organizations.

Aquilegia formosa. This native of the west coast and Rocky Mountains can be spotted in moist woodlands from Alaska down to California. Its distinctive red flowers dance and wobble in the slightest breeze. Red Columbine is a hardy perennial in Zones 3 to 9, and it thrives in partial shade. It can be grown in full sun, but it would benefit from even more soil moisture. Its wonderful flowers appear mid-spring to early summer, with spurs at the back that are generous with nectar, luring hummingbirds, butterflies, and long tongued bees. The flowers are followed by decorative seed pods that dry and begin to shed their contents in late summer.
Aquilegia is a hardy perennial known as Columbine.

Sex, Economy, Freedom & Community
(Critical Survey of Contemporary Fiction)
In this collection of eight new essays, environmentalist Wendell Berry shifts his attention from the natural to the human environment, focusing on the process of community disintegration implicit in the self-liberation that began in the 1960's. Berry views small, self-sufficient communities as ultimately the best protection for personal freedom against the pressures of rampant consumerism that leaves individuals dependent on large corporations for the necessities of life. In the place of a small, responsible local economy emerges a large, impersonal global economy of multinational corporations that colonize and extract resources without benefiting local communities. Fragmentation and a pervasive loss of moral responsibility—the consequences of which are apparent in the news every day—are the result of this process.
In the face of destructive government or corporate policies, Berry believes that meaningful grassroots economic reform must begin with personal responsibility. Berry is concerned about questions of scale: What is appropriate consumer behavior? How can we reduce our levels of consumption? What is worth conserving from the past and preserving in the present? What does it mean to live in community? To be truly free?
These are large, philosophical questions that move Berry from environmental issues to broader social concerns. The title essay uses the Clarence Thomas-Anita Hill hearings as a point of departure for a discussion of sexual harassment and current controversies over freedom of speech. "Peaceableness Toward Enemies" is a thoroughgoing critique of U.S. policy in the Gulf War, while "Christianity and the Survival of Creation" indicts Christians for failing to take biblical principles seriously. In these and other essays, Berry confirms his place as one of our most important social critics.

Castles & Coasts Housing Association (CCHA) has an annual turnover of over £30m, employs over 200 staff and owns and manages more than 7,000 properties in rural and urban communities across the North of England. 75% of CCHA's properties are located in Cumbria.
As well as a commitment to providing new affordable housing solutions and investing more than £10m each year in delivering new homes, CCHA continues to spend more than £10million each year on maintenance (including major repairs), creating employment and skills opportunities in our local communities.
Our Corporate Strategy 2018-2023 sets out the key corporate objectives for CCHA and our ambition to grow, invest and improve.
The aim of this Annual Report is to show you, our residents, what CCHA has achieved in 2018/2019.
In the last year we have spent over £10 million on repairs and improvements to homes, some of which has been spent on improving energy efficiency to help residents lower their fuel costs.
As well as maintaining existing homes, we have a significant development programme which should see us building over six hundred new, much needed, affordable homes over a five year period.
We have also expanded Castles & Coasts Services, which is our own maintenance delivery operation. Feedback from residents tells us that providing services and maintenance from our own team is not only a cost effective way of delivering high quality services, but also has higher rates of resident satisfaction.
One of the key achievements this year has been the positive impact of delivering the various aspects of our Customer Experience Strategy. This strategy sets out how we will ensure our services are delivered in a way which meets residents' needs and expectations. It explains how we will focus on developing and delivering diverse and appropriate services, by understanding who our customers are, what they expect from us, how they want to access our services and how we can best communicate and engage with our customers.
We believe a lot of progress has been made in listening to residents and understanding what we do well and also, importantly, where residents believe we can improve. We know we still have some parts of our service that we need to build on and improve and we are committed to working with residents to do that in the coming year.

Alice Hamilton
A Life in Letters
Biography of a pioneer in industrial toxicology in the US, covering her lifes work from the early 1920s to the Vietnam War.
Alice Hamilton (1869-1970), a pioneer in the study of diseases of the workplace, a founder of industrial toxicology in the United States, and Harvard's first woman professor, led a long and interesting life. Always a consummate professional, she was also a prominent social reformer whose interest in the environmental causes of disease and in promoting equitable living conditions developed during her years as a resident at Jane Addams's Hull-House.
This legendary figure now comes to life in an integrated work of biography and letters that reveals the personal as well as the professional woman. In documenting Hamilton's evolution from a childhood of privilege to a life of social advocacy, the volume opens a window on women reformers and their role in Progressive Era politics and reform. Because Hamilton was a keen observer and vivid writer, her letters--more than 100 are included here--bring an unmatched freshness and immediacy to a range of subjects, such as medical education; personal relationships and daily life at Hull House; the women's peace movement; struggles for the protection of workers' health; academic life at Harvard; politics and civil liberties during the cold war; and the process of growing old. Her story takes the reader from the Gilded Age to the Vietnam War.
"The book is a pleasure to read, no doubt in part because it conveys the lively intelligences of both Hamilton and Sicherman in an engaging and graceful duet." - Martha Minow, Reviews in American History
"An admirable book about an admirable subject. . . . I cannot remember the last time I read a 'scholarly biography' with greater pleasure." - Charles E. Rosenberg, Pennsylvania Magazine of History and Biography
" ... reads like a well-written and engrossing realist novel." --NWSA Journal

Fanlights, Crape Myrtles and a bee
17 comments:
- Leonora said...
That is a pretty building. You can faintly tell that there used to be full length windows under the fan shapes. It's perfect for an antique store now.

- happygirl said...
Bumblebees and honeybees are my favorites. I don't care much for yellowjackets and wasps. My crepe myrtle is the prettiest I've ever seen it. My husband cut it back last year. I think he is a genius.
- July 23, 2012 at 6:59 AM
- Granny Annie said...
If you were on the first floor of that building you'd have to be pretty tall to look out a window.
Oh how I wish we had some lovely green areas like that near us. This year's drought just keeps making things worse and worse. The trees we didn't lose last year will most likely be done-for this years.
We rarely, if ever, see any kind of bees anymore. I don't mind the wood-bees being gone but we all need the honey bees. If our health finally returns we are seriously considering putting bee hives at the back of our property.

Crape Myrtles-just the mention of the word takes me back to Southern summers.

I was trying to take a shot of a beautiful butterfly this weekend but he just wouldn't keep still! Ha. I love seeing all the insects now. The weather has been so bad I haven't seen a thing until this weekend and today.

The crepe myrtle is just so gorgeous!

Leonora -
Thanks for pointing that out - I'll have to go back and look. I loved walking through it with my friend I walk with - she has a booth there.
happygirl -
This one was so busy and paid me no mind as I snapped multiple photos - this one came out the best.
Aren't they beautiful? Ours really are just now blooming perfectly.
Granny Annie -
True! And I hate that you have such a drought going. We got a little more of our share of rain the last several days - somehow that doesn't seem right.
I hope your health returns soon - I like to think of you as bee keeper.
Sage -
Exactly - I guess they don't grow well in the north.
Joe -
I know! This one wouldn't stop moving either. :)

Thank you - I think so, too!

Our family mascot is the bee, actually - my dad got that nickname from frequent traveling. Someone on one of his trips said he was like a bee going from flower to flower, and it stuck.

- Jannie Funster said...
Bees are the bees knees indeed. I love the little critters. And never in ALL my life have been stung by one. But the fireants over these past 22 years have more than made up for that. I'm sure I've had at least 200 bites here and there -- but luckily not all at once!
Yes, our crapes are bombastic this year!! I saw many start to bloom in late May, and depending on the color there are always some blooming somewhere -- including at our own place. I planted 4 in the front in '94. And a few in the back in'98. They do "sweat" tho and my car windshield gets very sticky. Which reminds me..... add water to my wiper reservoir thing. Like, today!
I want to go in that building and poke around. And take a photo from one of the fanlights to post on my blog!! :) :) Preferable with YOU in said photo. After I get the shot I'll take you for coffee and pastries someplace awesome!!

Come to think of it I rarely see bees anymore, but there are plenty of butterflies (which I prefer).
Love that you care for your neighbors plants. So sweet.

I love the crate myrtels here in Georgia - I have some but they are in the shade and we need to move them to the sun - they love the sun. sandie

- Lynn said...
Riot Kitty -
I always see great bee things - what a nice mascot!
Jannie -
I think it was a fire ant that bit me in the park a couple of months ago - I can still see the bite and it still itches a little.
Our crapes are out of the way of windshields, fortunately.
I'd love to walk through that antique mall with you, too, Jannie Muffin. I always have impulses to buy things, but then remember that there's not one more inch to put anything in in my home. :)
Scarlet -
I love butterflies, too. Thank you - my neighbors are all good about helping each other out.
Sandie -
Yes - ours are in full sun.

Interesting old building with so many fanlifgt windowa there- Almost sero of those seen around here. Also none of those pretty Myrtle trees here. Lucky bee thst you appreciate n don't want to disturb. I've actually had several honey bees out on the deck blooms this summer. Good thing, or I'd have no peas to eat! The large hive across in the woods is doing ok this year, TG. I can't get close for pics tho!
- July 24, 2012 at 10:42 AM
- OldLady Of The Hills said...
That is an interesting old building....And it's now a Mall?? Go figure!
LOVE that tree and I LOVE that Bee, too....I'm glad the Bees are around, too. It seemed so very horrific, in every way, that they were at risk...Our whole eco-system would be effected in a very bad way without Bees!

The crape myrtles are absolutely gorgeous here this year!
- July 24, 2012 at 10:54 PM

Snaggle -
Yes - the bee seemed oblivious. I love to watch them, too.
OldLady of the Hills -
Yes - a charming antiques mall inside. A very shy gentlemen mans it and people have individual booths. I love to look at stuff and have a hard time not bringing more into my house. :)
I like that they seem so hardy. I guess they don't need a lot of water.

One of our Glenfern writers-in-residence, Linda McLaren, was so inspired by her writing studio and the atmosphere of the writers' house that she wrote us a little poem about it...
"There are places, special places.
We look for them, as people, as writers. I like to call them magic. Perhaps, it is just the peace, the uninterrupted time. Perhaps, it is the sense of those that have come before us who once sat where we now sit. A reflection of what has been and what is yet to be.
*There's promise, exploration, a time to connect with others journeys alongside our own. *
It becomes, inspiration. It is, magic.
There is no other space I have found that has allowed for so much in my work, and at the end of each day coming down the stairs that speak, I whisper one thing.
Thank you."
About Linda McLaren
Linda McLaren was born in Canada, lived and worked in the US, New Zealand and now resides in Australia. Her YA work has been compared to Daniel Woodrell and John Corey Waley. She is represented in New York by Liza Dawson.

Barlow batters New Fairfield in semis
Such a time occurred in the first half on Thursday, as New Fairfield took a one-goal lead in the second quarter in their SWC semifinal game.
But Barlow's defense abruptly clamped down on the Rebels, leading to a painful series of turnovers by New Fairfield and only one goal to show for its effort in period two.
Barlow closed out the second quarter with a three-goal burst in the final 68 seconds and went on to score a 19-10 victory, assuring itself the right to defend its two-time conference championship status.
"The New Fairfield attack was doing a very good job of picking are long sticks early in the game," said Barlow coach
"There wasn't too much communication between our middies and our defense, and (New Fairfield) was taking advantage of it. I was getting very frustrated on the sidelines, but we talked about it and communication seemed to be the key. We finally stopped that little rash of goals that they seemed to be getting."
With the win, its 14th of the season, top-seeded Barlow will play for its third consecutive conference title next Wednesday night at Pomperaug's
Barlow junior attackman Kevin Kelly, who spent much of the season playing in the midfield, registered four goals and three assists for the Falcons, while Adam Lanehart scored four times and Nick Billy three.
After a goal by Andrew Fiamengo and two by Sean Macey had given fourth-seeded New Fairfield a 3-2 lead, Barlow outscored the Rebels by 7-1 in the second quarter to take a commanding 9-4 lead.
Barlow had relied on its defensive play and grinding physical nature for much of the period before Billy, Kelly and Lanehart struck in the final 1:08 of period against New Fairfield goalie Sean Doyle to push their advantage to five goals.
Barlow originally set out to play for one shot while the score still stood at 7-4, but Kelly scored 15 seconds shy of intermission, then got the ball back again after his team forced yet another turnover.
Lanehart converted a feed from Kelly with 0.7 seconds showing and the lead swelled to 9-4.
"Our defense did a great job of defending and clearing in that second quarter," said Kelly, whose team is presently ranked seventh in the state by www.laxpower.com
"That helped shut (New Fairfield) down and we got a lot of fast breaks off the turnovers and the ground balls that we won. Plus New Fairfield didn't seem to run their transition defense very well. They were tough when we'd be passing the ball around and their goalie was very good, but there were a lot of openings on the fast break."
Despite the flurry by Barlow late in the second period, New Fairfield (10-8) didn't go quietly in the third quarter. While Barlow's immovable senior attackman, Tim Cumings , made it 10-4 in the first minute of the period, Brandon Semchyshen scored twice and Macey once in a 1:47 span, bringing the Rebels back to within 10-7.
But Sean Delany (1 goal, 3 assists) and Lanehart increased Barlow's lead to 12-7 after three periods. The Falcons then scored five straight times to open the fourth quarter.
"Barlow is just a very good team very well coached, well disciplined," acknowledged New Fairfield coach Marty Morgan .
"You can't say enough about John's program and what he's done here. We felt we could play with them; we played well the first time against them (a 7-5 Barlow win) and played very well in the first quarter today but we don't run a lot of guys out there. We try to get some others out there at various times but our main guys can get tired with the pace Barlow plays at.
"With four minutes to play in the first half," Morgan added, "I called a time out and told our guys 'play your butts off for four minutes and you can rest for 10 (at intermission).' We were only down by two but before you know it, Barlow is up 9-4."
The underclass duo of Fiamengo and Macey combined to score seven of New Fairfield's 10 goals.
"New Fairfield is a fairly athletic team," said Distler, "but they only have four or five seniors and we have 14. That makes a big difference."

Nov 08 2015
My wife went to church and then out to lunch so I fixed myself a good lunch. I fried a couple slices of jowl bacon and cut a square of Dave's leftover mac n cheese and browned it in the bacon grease. It went on a whole wheat slider bun with a little mustard over the bacon. On the side I had what was left of Billy's slaw.
That was so good I wanted a second one! I will be making these again but on a large bun! Great for breakfast, brunch, lunch or anytime!

Last night, Hollywood A-listers flocked to Santa Monica, California for the 24th annual Critics' Choice Awards. From Judy Greer in Reem Acra to Patricia Clarkson in Georges Chakra and Jodie Comer in Zuhair Murad, there were certainly no shortage of Middle Eastern designers on the red carpet, but the look that Bazaar is still swooning over is Chrissy Teigen's Maison Yeya gown.
The autumn/winter 2018 dress, which features a thigh-high split and waist-cinching embellished belt, is designed by one of Egypt's most prominent couture designers, Yasmine Yeya – and you just may recognise it from somewhere.
Rewind 10 months to Bazaar's annual Best Dressed ceremony, where international superstar Nicole Scherzinger arrived in a lace creation from the Middle Eastern fashion house. Later that night, the former Pussycat Doll took to the stage in the same white gown that Chrissy Teigen chose for last night's Critics' Choice Awards.
Monica Rose, stylist to the stars who dressed Chrissy for the event, shared snaps of the model and social media personality on her Instagram, showcasing the full look, which included Stuart Weitzman silver sandals and Jaipur Jewels diamond earrings.
Who do you think wore the look best? Drop us a comment on our Instagram and choice the convo.

This week long ocean safety clinic will be hosted by Bodhi staff members Hannah Walsh and Spencer Dunlap. Hannah and Spencer were each introduced to the ocean at an early age, and have many years of bodysurfing experience under their belts. Their goal is to share their knowledge and passion for the ocean to as many people as possible while spreading the "art" of bodysurfing around the world. Whether you are a beginner with very little ocean experience, or an accomplished surfer who is looking to add bodysurfing to your repertoire, this clinic will provide you with the foundation to take your ocean savvy to the next level.
What is Bodysurfing?
Here at Bodhi, we believe bodysurfing is more than the simple physical act of catching and riding a wave with your body (i.e. without a board). Our definition of bodysurfing also encompasses ocean awareness, breath holding and lifesaving techniques, and environmental stewardship. Although bodysurfing is the simplest act of riding a wave, the activity is not a global phenomenon (like board surfing) because it is not very profitable. The surf industry generates revenue by manufacturing boards, fins, leashes, wax, etc., whereas all a bodysurfer really needs to catch a wave is a decent pair of swim fins. Thus, bodysurfing is a soulful art form whose practitioners benefit greatly from their simple elemental connection with the ocean.
Bodhi Bodysurfing + Ocean Awareness Retreat includes:
- 6 nights at the Bodhi Lodge
- Transportation to and from San Jose
- 6 breakfasts and 3 dinners
- Swim technique training at local pool
- 4 bodysurfing lessons (2 hours each)
- National Park entrance fees
- Guided community walking tour
- Snorkeling tour
- 1 hour massage
- 1 hour stretching session
- Handplane workshop
Retreat dates
- November 30 – December 7, 2019
- January 25 – February 1, 2020
- March 14 – March 21, 2020
- May 2 – May 9, 2020

Your fearless retreat leaders
Spencer Kruse Dunlap is a former Division I athlete, reader, writer, photographer, traveler, surfer, and nature enthusiast. Born in Southern California, Spencer spent his early childhood in Adelaide, Australia, and his formative years in Denver, Colorado. After graduating from the University of San Diego in 2016 with a degree in Environmental Studies, Spencer lived on the island of Kauai where he was further exposed to bodysurfing culture and big waves. His dream is to spread his love of nature and preserve the ocean for current and future generations. He believes that "wave sliding" is the single most important act contributing to his health and positive outlook on life.
Hannah Walsh one day hopes to develop gills so she can spend all her time in her happy place — the ocean. Being raised on Cape Cod, Massachusetts, Hannah has connected with the water in all forms as an ocean lifeguard, surfer, swim instructor, and competitive swimmer. She swam competitively for ten years, specializing in distance freestyle and butterfly, competing collegiately until she decided to leave the chlorine behind for the salt water. Hannah has since been working as a water videographer and has produced short films with the intention of spreading love to the ocean to inspire more people to protect it. Her video work has allowed her to travel to new waves, and find a second home in Costa Rica. Hannah's constant and base passion in life has always been bodysurfing, and she thinks the world will be a much better place with more "fishpeople" in it.

Soros, Obama Agitator Groups Target Rep Who Had The Guts To Tell Obama Truth – "You Lie"
Back in September of 2009, Rep Joe Wilson became the only member of Congress to actually stand up to Hussein Obama and tell him to his face, "You lie." Every member of Congress should have done it, long before he was ever elected in reference to his supposed citizenship, but the honor of being the only one to actually have the strength of character and the intestinal fortitude to do so belongs solely to Joe Wilson (R-SC).
It's noteworthy that when Republicans are targeted now it is done by groups, in large numbers intent on completely disrupting the event and, if they can, forcing it to be cancelled. At a minimum their disruptions make the normal interaction between a Congressman and his constituents impossible.
The groups are not grass roots and organic in nature, they are top-down big money operations by George Soros and other leftists, such as the agitators of his Open Societies funded "Indivisible" group, and others, like the communist radical anti-American organization OFA headed by Hussein Obama.
Soros' "Indivisible" targeted Joe Wilson, a man I personally respected for calling out the lying Obama that I named my now-deceased chocolate Labrador after him, Monday in Graniteville, SC. The agitators followed the same program that has been widely distributed to their members and in which they receive coaching of disruption. It's been used around the country, recently in Meterie, LA and at a Utah town hall held by Rep Jason Chaffetz (R-UT). The agitators are all hardcore leftists openly and aggressively challenging every point made by the lawmakers, if they were even able to get a point in edgewise.
It's clear from watching the videos what the intention was and remains, chaos and obstructionism. They had no interest in hearing what Congressman Wilson had to say or the others who have been targeted by the former pretend 'president' Obama and his financier, Soros.
It's driven towards retaking the House in 2018 and the White House in 2020. If that happens, it's over, just paint it black. Joe Wilson was told he lies, but that was simply a "cute" way to target him that was successful in drawing attention. Rep Wilson tells the truth and he stands up to Democrat lies. That's what got him in hot water in 2009 and it's what they still use to attack him to this day. An honest man is at a disadvantage in DC politics.
A leftist-friendly CNN video features one Indivisible agitator bragging about their disruptions of Wilson:
Rep Bill Cassidy had to endure the same kind of attack in his Meterie, LA town hall

Today the Supreme Court of the United States (SCOTUS) released its decision in Snyder vs. Phelps. The case featured the father of a fallen Marine (Snyder) who claimed distress when members of the Westboro Baptist Church (Phelps) held a protest rally of sorts at the funeral of his son. WBC holds signs that say "God hates f*gs" and "Thank God for Dead Soldiers". Snyder asserted that their presence at the funeral caused emotional damage to him.
I have no doubt that it did. I have NO doubt that it did. Even if he barely noticed them on the day, but saw the footage later, I'm sure it only enflamed his grief and pain. I do think what Westboro does is morally wrong. It's not considerate of others, it does not spread the love of Christ, it does not bring people into a deeper understanding of the grace of God (except inasmuch as God does not smite them, in my opinion).
However, what they do is not illegal. That's the hard part, but that is the side on which the Supreme Court came down today.
The New York Times summarized the majority ruling, written by Justice John Roberts:
Chief Justice Roberts wrote that two primary factors required a ruling in favor of the church. First, he said, its speech was on matters of public concern. While the messages on the signs carried by its members "may fall short of refined social or political commentary," he wrote, "the issues they highlight — the political and moral conduct of the United States and its citizens, the fate of our nation, homosexuality in the military and scandals involving the Catholic clergy — are matters of public import."
Second, the members of the church "had the right to be where they were." They were picketing on a public street 1,000 feet from the site of the funeral; they complied with the law and with instructions from the police, and they protested quietly and without violence.
"Any distress occasioned by Westboro's picketing turned on the content and viewpoint of the message conveyed," Chief Justice Roberts wrote, "rather than any interference with the funeral itself."
All of that means, the chief justice wrote, that the protesters' speech "cannot be restricted simply because it is upsetting or arouses contempt."
This is a hard thing to swallow for many, many people. Angered and hurt by Westboro's actions, people wonder if the law cannot do anything about them, who can? Many states have created buffer zones around funerals to attempt to prevent distress to families- a distance at which the protestors must stand. However, the people of the WBC were compliant with those rules in Maryland where the funeral took place.
There was a bit of a hubbub following the shootings in Arizona of a few weeks ago, in which there were rumors of the WBC protestors coming to the funerals of some of the victims. People in Tucson joined together and some planned to where outsized angel wings to block the views of the grieving families. WBC never showed.
I loathe what WBC does with the fire of a thousand suns. I hate that their behavior is extrapolated to churches in general. I detest that they prey upon situations of grief and distress. I thoroughly dislike the cultish nature of the church and completely disagree with their Scriptural interpretation.
But the First Amendment protects them. And I want it to, because I want it to protect me. If the SCOTUS begins to clamp down on the First Amendment rights of law-abiding citizens, even though their words hurt, then you or I or organizations we support could be next. We cannot allow our freedoms to be restricted because some people can't handle them.
Roberts argues that Westboro's signs bring up issues of public importance. That's not the point. They could be carrying signs that "Jelly beans are better than spice drops" or "Down with Polyester Cruelty" or "Peace Now". We would think they were amusing at best or kooks at worst, as long as they remained within the law.
Instead, they take advantage of media coverage and the gathering of people to spread inflammatory messages, but they're not illegal.
If we stop them, we're all in danger.
If we ignore them, they won't go away.
If we try to reason with them, they will say that they KNOW they're right.
So, instead, we must use our freedoms in the same way that they're using theirs. People can gather to block the views of families. People can hold counter-protest signs. Choirs can gather and sing over their ranting.
Goodness is stronger than evil, but we don't ask SCOTUS to uphold goodness. We ask them to uphold freedoms and so they have.
It's up to the rest of us to exercise our freedoms with as much vigor as do those whose message we believe is wrong.

"I prayed every second I was in the barrel except for a few seconds after the fall when I went unconscious."
Annie Edson Taylor
The first person to go over Niagara Falls
Dateline: Niagara Falls
This is a tale about daredevils.
It's about this lady:
It's about this dude:
But mainly, it's about this fish:
Daredevils all, let the tail, er, tale begin…
"Anybody can jump a motorcycle. The trouble begins when you try to land it."
Evel Knievel
I grew up between the 13th and 14th largest lakes on the planet, Lake Erie and Lake Ontario, from where I stood their waters stretched to the curve of the earth, fresh water oceans surrounded by Earth.
And in between is the river where my grandfather took me fishing, in between is the river I wrote my first fishing story about, in between is the river that came out of the tap at my parents' home.
The Niagara River.
It's 36 miles long from Erie to Ontario, broken into two parts, the "Upper" and the "Lower" river, the natural boundary between America and Canada.
The Upper, as a kid I used to ride my bicycle to the "foot of Ontario Street," with the only "outdoor guy" from the neighborhood, my buddy "Spaces," named for the incredible space between his two front teeth, "outdoor guy" because his father was the only pop on the block with a subscription to Outdoor Life.
I heard about "Perch" for years before it dawned on me it wasn't the thing his pet parakeet sat on.
I never drive by the "Upper" without smiling about the kid adventures I had with "Spaces."
The "Lower" is my favorite river on the planet.
In fall…
…it bursts into color that makes the Northeast famous.
By the way that's my brother-in-law, Jim Niland, he was the one who arranged for my first fishing story trip on the river a decade ago, the dude hits the "Lower" almost every week it seems. (I know that fish he's holding isn't a bass but the bosses said it was okay to use the photo anyway.)
I have since been back on the "Lower" a bunch of times, in early spring I've caught…
…at least three icebergs as they float by, but also have managed…
…to catch a fish, as has my fishing buddy, Mac…
(See the above boss explanation for showing a non bass on Bassmaster.com.)
Now, we add this "Upper" and "Lower" stuff to the Niagara River because on the Earth here the "Upper" is actually upper, above, higher up than the lower, which in fact as I write that I think, "duh," but according to Google "Upper" is 300-some feet above the "Lower" in elevation and in between the two stands these bad boys:
As you look at this photo of Niagara Falls, aka The American Falls, is on the left, on the right is Horseshoe Falls, aka The Canadian Falls, and that my friends is where the daredevils come in.
"I went through life big-bang-banda-boom-bada-boom."
Evel Knievel
Meet Annie Edson Taylor…
…at 60-something she was the first person to ever go over "The Falls," Horseshoe, and as the Buffalo Courier on Oct. 25 of 1901 so eloquently put it, "…and lived."
Story goes Annie needed the money to "avoid the poorhouse" and came up with the stunt as a way to raise some cash. The barrel was made of wood held together by the iron things that hold all barrels together and she then stuffed a mattress inside it along with a 200-pound ANVIL at the bottom so it would float upright.
Turns out, she never really got rich from it, her manager supposedly took off with most of the money.
This guy, Charles Stephens, a daredevil from England wasn't quite as lucky as Annie. Charles happens to be the first person to go over "The Falls," also Horseshoe, and die.
He too had an anvil for a ballast but he was tied to it for some reason, the barrel hit the rocks, the anvil went through the bottom of the barrel, along with Charles, all they ever found was his arm still in a strap inside what was left of the barrel.
Double wow.
Now in one of those space-time-continuum things the smart people on The Big Bang Theory talk about, take a look again at that Buffalo Courier headline…
…you see what I circled there, HUMAN BEING, that my friends is the Buffalo Courier bending time and space so as to set me up 116 years later for this story. They didn't have to say Annie was in fact a HUMAN BEING, but they did because they knew that somewhere in the distant future some dude would write a story about a NON HUMAN BEING going over The Falls.
And that would be me.
And this would be that exact NON HUMAN BEING…
…one tough smallmouth bass.
"I learned one thing from jumping motorcycles that was of great value on the golf course, the putting green especially: Whatever you do, don't come up short."
Evel Knievel
Back last October the St. Catharines Bassmasters, an Ontario B.A.S.S. Nation club, had a tournament on Lake Erie. Here's the tourney director Jason Clay, "It was kind of a bad weather day, most guys came off the lake and went into the Upper Niagara to fish."
The club doesn't have a live release boat. "We don't have the money, we use the money from the tournament as payout to all the anglers, we can pay more that way," so the bass get released right by the weigh-in site.
"At that tournament we tagged 100 of the bass caught and then let them go with tags on them, the tags had my phone number so that if you caught one you could call me and tell me where you caught it…"
Here's how this looks:
Jason: "Once released the bass can either go downstream (1 on the photo) back to Lake Erie, or upstream to the Upper Niagara River (2 on the photo) or through the Power Canal to the Lower Niagara River (3 on the photo)."
In fact two of the tagged bass were caught both heading downstream, one actually at the mouth of the creek and Lake Erie.
In all, four of the tagged bass have been caught again and the position of where they were caught relayed to Jason.
"The whole goal of all this is to do a study to see if the fish we catch in Lake Erie and release in Chippewa Creek (in Ontario) make it back to where we caught them, if it shows the fish don't go back to where they were caught maybe it's time for us to buy a live release boat, but lets study it first."
But then came a call that "floored" Jason. "I couldn't believe it when Chris called and told me where he caught the fish, fish with the number 11 tag, couldn't believe it…"
"db, I caught it in the Lower, caught the bass with number 11 on the tag, caught it in the Stella drift on the Lower Niagara River, that bass went over the falls, a 6 1/2-pound FISH went over the falls without a barrel."
Thank you Buffalo Courier for that HUMAN BEING setup, props to you.
"I think I coulda landed on a dime. I really do."
Evel Knievel
"We've never really counted how many fish go over the falls." Michael Todd, Aquatic Biologist, NYS Department of Environmental Conservation.
I'm told it's a pretty good chance they're not going to start counting any time soon either.
"It's just a natural thing, probably occurs more than you think, my guess is that if the fish go over the American Falls, that outcome is not going to work out well for the fish, it's pretty much all big boulders and rocks at the bottom. Horseshoe Falls, that's another story, it isn't as rocky at the bottom and actually has a pretty deep water pool that would be pretty survivable…for a fish you know."
Yeah I know, Chris Cinelli, a fishing guide on the Niagara River for the past 20 years (and a friend who took me out in his boat on that first fishing trip of mine) had a client of his, Tyler Vargas, catch number 11 on April 27:
Then, in something that makes you want to go out and buy a lottery ticket, "On May 17, just a couple weeks later I'm fishing the Lower again and bang I land another bass and when I get it onboard I can't believe it…
…it's another of those tagged bass from the Canadian tournament and when I look at it I'm shocked to see that it is tagged number 12…I caught both 11 and 12, they must have went over together."
The Honeymoon Capital for fish as well.
"I guess I thought I was Elvis Presley but I'll tell ya something. All Elvis did was stand on a stage and play a guitar. He never fell off on that pavement at no 80 mph."
Evel Knievel
Jason though doesn't believe the bass went over the falls, he thinks they took the long way, some 30-plus miles to wind up in Chris' boat.
"I think when we released them they went up stream to this kind of triangle island and then turned left…"
Okay here's the deal, The Chippawa Boat Ramp Park is where the tournament left from, the circle I drew is about where the bass were released, give or take, the short red line going upstream down the creek takes the bass into the Upper Niagara River, turn left and it's a short swim over the falls, but make a left at that island…
"…and the bass can follow the Power Channel north…"
"…until it splits at the power dam…"
"…and if there is overflow that day they can just slip right over the turbines without getting caught in them…"
"…and can come out and turn right and swim up to the falls, or turn left and swim towards Lake Ontario which is down the way that Chris caught them."
"I am a guy who is first of all a businessman. I'm not a stunt man. I'm not a daredevil. I'm - I'm an explorer."
Evel Knievel
I'm not a fishing guide, nor a tournament director or an aquatic biologist, I am though somewhat of a daredevil.
I consider coming from the inside to the outside one of my greatest dares.
With that said, I'm giving bass number 11 and number 12 props for going over the falls.
In this crazy upside down world of ours, somewhere down deep we need to know that a fish can go over the falls without a barrel. Certainly not Earth shaking news, probably happens all the time, but when one of God's creatures takes on the mighty Niagara Falls…and wins, there may in fact be hope for the planet after all.
Many thanks to all those who made this project work, Jason, Chris, Michael and whoever it is who runs the Google Earth satellite thing.
Final props go though to number 11 and number 12.
May all your days be filled with minnows and salmon egg sacks, and may your swim through the rest of your lives be smooth.
And should this ever happen to you again, swim upstream and may the wind and the mist of the falls once again fill your gills.
Because that my fish friends, is what life is all about.
Being a daredevil…
"I'd rather walk in front of a live cannon than do it again."
Annie Edson Taylor

We all left the drama when Mikael's parents raided the place where he is involved in bad activities. Mikael in the midst of drugs told them to leave as they are spoiling his image and respect in front of his friends and everyone. His father fueled with rage tries to slap when Mikael stops him and replies so much that his father isn't even left with answers. The former replies that he won't leave without the money he gave him for business. Mikael tells him that this is no money and he knows that all the anguish is just about the money they gave him. He also tells them they should leave by themselves with dignity or else he will have to throw them out and he practically did.
Both the parents lament of their upbringing while on their way to home. Both blame themselves for what they have done to their son. He also tells her that he had taken loan for his sake. Just in the ranting, both lost control of their car and passed away.
On the other hand Jeena indirectly asks about the advices of the guy who love girls. She says that in the obstacle of her boyfriend and asks all about Salahuddin's choices. Jeena buys tons of clothes with his likings. Next day she dress like what he wanted and gets dishearten when he doesn't even notices.
On the other hand, Mannu is devastated when her in laws are about to be buried. Salahuddin also comes and see the torn Mannu. Jeena also ask about where Salahaddin and comes to know about Mannu. Mikael also leaves the entire family saying that he has work when he has actually nothing to do. Salahuddin also cries about the event and thinks about the devastation he has done while marrying Mannu to Mikael.
And as Mann Mayal begins again Manu is talking with her family and mother when everyone forces her that she should be with Mikael. She ignores the outcome by saying that he must be with friends. Later, she calls and asks that he should be home now as everyone is waiting for him and he should be here to meet them. The furious Mikael told her that he doesn't like to sit amongst so many people or she should book a room for them if there are problems. Manu tells her mother that she should leave now as there is no need now.
On the other side, Jeena comes to Salahuddin's home and calls him telling that his guard isn't allowing her to enter. The latter asks her why she is here in such a late of an hour and she tells that she has some purpose. Jeena tells him that she has brought him breakfast as he has not eaten anything since the previous day. She says that there is nothing wrong in eating together. Salahuddin feels agitated and says that she shouldn't just come home and do the breakfast. She also tells him that she is here because she had a nightmare in which he was asking for help. Salahuddin tells her that it is for the last time she is doing anything for him. Both do the breakfast together when Jeena asks how she is looking in the clothes she has worn. He tells her that she is looking good and to her question says that she is beautiful and she shouldn't change herself for any guy.
Jeena also shows Salahuddin the pictures of Bia's daughter. He feels happy be seeing his niece pictures in funny poses, she also tells him that she is in constant contact with them and sends them the gifts too. The episode also shows the increasing Jeena's love for him.
Coming to the Mannu family, she tells Mikael that their parents are no more and he should be responsible and lethal about the family now. She tells him that they have to be legit and reasonable now as the elders are no more. He replies that they are dead because of her and she shouldn't act well. Mikael constantly nags her that she is the one who told her parents everything and he lost her. Mannu is left dishearten by all the talk.
The flip side and Mannu comes to Salahuddin's office with the sudden realization that struck her. She says that her in laws are dead because he told them about the Mikael's habits. Salahuddin denies the entire accusation. Mannu cries and tells that even when Mikael and his habits were wrong they were important and elderly position for him. She also says that he is the one who always does that and leaves her in the mud and problems always. Mannu also says that everything around him has changed the way, the people and the lifestyle. He replies that nothing about his character has changed. Mannu doesn't agree and says that he has to leave her alone and she has to live a life of peace. The intense conversation continues with more accusations and justifications. Salahuddin ensures Mannu that no one can do badly to her. She replies that he is enough to destroy her life.
