The Great Crabcake Tour of 2009
Well gang, I have enough to tell you about my trip to fill way more than one post. This weekend trip was very last-minute and taking a last minute trip over a holiday weekend to a place that you've never been before can be kind of insane.
Just call me crazy.
In a nutshell, we ate our faces off. We found what, in my opinion, is a legendary cross stitch shop. We ran into friends unexpectedly, and we laughed at some college students' drunken antics. (During the daylight hours, anyway. It was a different matter when it happened in the middle of the night)
So today, I'll tell you about how I ate crabcakes from one end (North Ocean City) to the other end of the island (South Ocean City). Seriously, I'm not joking.
All right...we arrived in town early Friday evening, and after a walk on the beach and time to watch the ocean, we went to On the Bay Seafood (4204 Coastal Hwy), where I had...of course, the crabcake platter. Yum! They were filled with lump crabmeat. Slightly sweet, and not a lot of spice. Although I like mine a bit more savory, these were very good. And cheap? My platter of two good sized crabcakes, french fries and coleslaw was only $18. I think the true deal of the day was the All You Can Eat Steamed Crabs for only $20, and lots of people were enjoying their crabs.
Dave and I particularly liked the atmosphere. It's a take-out place, but out front they have several picnic tables where (in good weather) you can hammer and pound crabs to your hearts content. And smaller parties, like Dave and me, share picnic tables with other small parties and so some of the fun is meeting your tablemates. We sat with some locals who steered us in the direction of some other great places to eat and play. They don't have a website, but I'm not surprised. It's a low tech, unfancy kind of place.
Saturday was a non-crabcake day. I had a fantastic meal of sausage encrusted grouper at Macky's Bayside, but let's get back to the crabcakes....
On Sunday we ventured North to The Crabcake Factory for lunch (12000 Coastal Hwy), where I had a Crabcake salad. Basically, some mixed greens with tomatoes and mushrooms and a crabcake plopped on top. But boy-oh-boy, it was a delicious crabcake! I ordered the regular backfin crabcake, not the lump crabmeat cake, and I liked it much more. To my taste, it's more flavorful. And again, not terribly expensive. My single crabcake on a salad was only $11.99, and perfect for a lunch that focused on the star of the show, the crabcake! It was a nice restaurant/sports bar kind of place, with some outside seating. They also will pack flash frozen crabcakes for you to take home with your, or they will ship their crabcakes around the country
Sunday evening we met friends at Fausto's Ristorante Antipasti where I had linguine with..(can you guess?)..lump crabmeat in a light red sauce. Good, but it was no crabcake.
And finally, our last meal before driving home Monday night was at Harrison's Harbor Watch at the far South end of the boardwalk, where I had the crabcake sandwich. I know that I sound like a broken record, but it was wonderful. It's a close call between this one and the Crabcake Factory, but I think Harrison's edged it out slightly. Really perfect with just the right amount of spice and crispyness, along with fries and slaw and our waiter even gave me an extra plate of green beans that were out of this world. (Something about them offering unlimited side dishes? I didn't quite get it.) Peppery and lemony and maybe a touch of vinegar? Delicious. And all the while we watched the sunset and saw the boats and jetskis come and go at the inlet. I imagine that during a non-holiday evening it's a lovely and romantic spot. It was hard to get in the car and drive home after that!
So that's my 2009 Crabcake Tour and now I'm terribly spoiled and will probably turn my nose up at any non-Ocean City crabcakes that are offered to me. Now let's see....where's that order form from The Crabcake Factory??

When I was last in Maine, I woke up in the mood for clams one day, so when we went to Mikes for dinner, I had clam chowder followed by steamed clams before I had my clam roll. So I can totally see how you would eat crabcakes every day of your vacation. And fall in love with them. (Also, I ate calamari at least three times on the Slovenian vacation; when people do something really well, it's your job as a tourist to appreciate it.)ReplyDelete
Your post made me hungry (lol) Think I'll go see what I can cook up.ReplyDelete
Sounds like you had a great time and have now become a crab cake connoisseur :-)
Mmmmmmmmm, I truly love crabcakes. My personal favorites can be found at Merion Golf Club, outside of Philadelphia. Oh, I can taste them just typing about them. Good job, crabby girl.ReplyDelete
I'm glad you had a crab filled time! :DReplyDelete
Okay, some day I've got to try a crabcake! I see them for sale on QVC (I watch for whatever reason, but never buy for whatever reason, anything on that channel). Too bad you can't just order one or two in case they weren't your cup of tea.ReplyDelete
I hope we'll get to read a part two about the cross stitch store and where are the pictures???
I'm glad you and Dave found some time to get away and enjoy each others company.
You know something? I don't think I've ever had a crabcake! My roots are pretty mid-western (lived there until the age of 12 1/2) and we seldom ate seafood. Even with the DH from NH with a noticeable down east accent, I have never developed a taste for the lowly mollusk or for the more expensive crustacean. DH feasted on lobster a few weeks ago in Maine...how could he not at $4.00 a pound?ReplyDelete

Dallas road closures over the next few days might be taking a toll on your commute.
The Dallas North Tollway will be closed overnight on Tuesday on some direct connector ramps. Another project, the Horseshoe project, will be closing lanes of Interstate 30 and Interstate 35E in downtown Dallas, according to NTTA.
First, here is what you need to know about closures of the Dallas North Tollway taking place overnight on Tuesday, July 26, from 10 p.m. to 5 a.m.
The latest news from around North Texas.
Lane Closures

• East- and westbound Plano Parkway between north- and southbound Dallas Parkway (the DNT frontage road) closed
• All lanes of southbound Dallas Parkway (the DNT frontage road) from Park Boulevard to Plano Parkway closed
And here are possible detours:
• Detour to east- and westbound PGBT from southbound DNT: Motorists will continue south on the DNT and exit at Frankford Road, where they will take the U-turn and enter northbound DNT. Motorists can then enter PGBT from the northbound DNT to PGBT direct-connector ramp.
• Detour for southbound Dallas Parkway traffic: Motorists will take a right onto Park Boulevard then take a left onto Plano Parkway. Motorists will be able to continue on Plano Parkway back to Dallas Parkway, where they will turn right.
• Detour for eastbound Plano Parkway traffic: Motorists wishing to continue eastbound on Plano Parkway should turn onto W. Park Boulevard heading east and turn right onto Parkwood Boulevard back to Plano Parkway.
• Detour for westbound Plano Parkway traffic: Motorists wishing to continue westbound on Plano Parkway will turn right onto northbound Dallas Parkway and take a left onto W. Park Boulevard. Motorists will continue on Park Boulevard to Plano Parkway.
This construction is aimed to add an additional lane to connector ramps and DNT main lines between the President George Bush Turnpike and the Sam Rayburn Tollway.
Horseshoe Project Closures:
Here are the lanes closing due to the Horseshoe Project, which is taking place downtown. All information is from a Dallas Horseshoe Project press release.

This continues the game play from the first post at http://worldofthefifthsun.blogspot.com/2016/01/character-creation-for-alone-solo-game.html
The Story
Generate a Random Event
Catalyst: It's a Trap
Location: Guard Station
Someone forgotten from the past has trapped Andra near a guard station.
"Out to finish what they started? "[G: Yes] Hear Booming Voice, See slitted eyes,
More than one? [G: Yes] Difficulty: 4
"You're still alive! We'll take care of that," echoes a booming voice.
Hear sudden loud popping sound.
He must seek safety shelter in the nick of time.
Does Andra get out of the way in time?
[E: Y! Regeneration, Superstition] [belonging : light] [Jera: effort pays off] .
Not only that, Andra does get out of the way and sees someone that triggers a memory from his past. Also Off to the site, a glint of a metal scrap shines catching his attention.
[Card: Name : Zahra, Vice: Wrath, Catalyst: A broken heart]
The familiar face is Zahra, a jealous acquaintance from the past who once seemed interested in him.
Does Zahra have anything to do with the past tragic event? [E: Y Training]
Zahra had been joined with a group of people and was taken under their wings in this mob like organization. It is the same mob that attacked and killed her family.
Is Zahra jealous of this new adopted family that Andra has created ?[G: N, Tool]
[Love interest: tower,crown, heart] [They have grown emotionally distant, They surpass you in wealth,property, or status in an important way. Your relationship has recently become more serious in some way, or you have broached the subject.]
Zahra is using this attack against Andra to increase her rank in the mob.
Did Andra get involved with someone else? [G: Yes, confuse container, hear: smashed pottery, see: bright streaks, belonging: child's toy]
She was going to give Andra a gift with something he had wanted since a child. When Zahra had seen Aindra with this other person, she threw down the gift and it smashed to pieces on the ground, tears falling down her face. She committed herself to the mob at that moment.
Instead of love, Zahra received great wealth, her feelings having become distant and pushed aside.
Back to story
Does Zahra go for the shiny object to use as a weapon? [G: Y!, Monument][belonging: religious object]
It is a metal statue of one of the local gods.
He reaches down and grabs the statue. Holding it close he looks out towards where the attackers were.
What does he see, smell, or hear? [Card: See: shining chrome, hear: rapidly approaching sirens, smell: a pungent fart, 3]
He feels nauseous as he sees Zahra running at him, holding a shiny sword in hand above her head charging at him with three others behind her.
Does he throw the statue at Zahra? [E: N, Deny Dream]
He is struck with terror at this former person who was interested in him is now going to be killed by her hands.
Is Jiffar nearby? [G: No]
Is there anyplace else to go? [E: Yes, Museum, see: tapestries depicting mythic scenes -> theater, Isaz= puzzled , confused]
Confused by what is going on and him being all alone, he notices the theater door open nearby.
Does he run towards the door, if so how fast? [G: Yes, 6, smells burning candles]
In he runs into the theater. Immediately the scent and flickering of burning candles assaulted his senses.
Does he shut the door? [G: Yes, eliminate purity]
He shuts the door and uses the statue to jam it into the handle so it can't be opened.
The door is shaken, pounded on, and then slammed several times.
Does the door break? [B: Yes, Weaken Rebellion, catalyst: earthquake]
Little by little, the door cracks and shatters. They are breaking into the door, despite him thinking that it would be strong enough to hold.
Is there anyone else in the room? [G: Yes, d6 3, Bargain Aura]
Yes, three people that seem to be looking to deal art pieces are in the museum.
"People are attacking me," he said to the three other.
Do they come to help? [E: No, hear: blast of horn]
They turn, scream, and shout while running out of the main room and down that hall.
What comes to Andra's mind? [remember stockpile]
Andra senses that things may get worse. He spots the candles around the room and considers lighting the door block and door on fire. He grabs a few candles and throws it onto the pile.
Chance of catching fire [E: Yes]
The furniture quickly bursts into flames. The shaking of the door soon ceases. But now he has a different issue: the burning room.
[Spend fragment on vignette]
He then remembered seeing, when he came in, a bunch of water in the corner of the museum. End of Vignette
He shouts out "fire" to alert the museum.
He runs over, lifts the large jar of water, carries the water over to the door, and dumps it.
Does it extinguish the fire? If not, how much? [E: No 6]
Over half of the fire is put out. He looks around to see if anyone has come to help.
Has anyone come to help? [G: Yes, rearrange solution]
Those that ran off have now returned. They quickly come determined now to save the art pieces.
Soon the fire is extinguished.
What happens when now? [RE: Bargain source]
"We thank you for saving our precious art from the vile deeds of those chasing you," one person says.
[belonging: massive inheritance, name: Hassan]
"No problem," Andra says hiding his involvement in starting the fire. "I don't know why they were trying to break into here and chase me."
"I'm Hassan and this is my collection of art being displayed. It is priceless."
"I'm Glad I could help."
"If you should ever need any help, you can find me in the mercantile district. I own the rare artifacts business on Straf Street."
"I'm Andra, " he said, bowing to the older dealer. "I bid you farewell," he says with a smile.
End of Beat
I feel like this part of the story has run it's events.
[Restore Lookout]
Outside, he wanders until finally finding Jiffar a few streets down. How has your shopping been, Andra? I bumped into and old friend," he said.
Andra smiles and then does a half-cough, half-giggle. "Me to," he says recalling Zahra. "And I made a new friend," he said, thinking of Hassan. "Maybe a good new friend"....

One update tonight. Here is a picture forwarded by a friend of Jon's. Cool pic! Times Square certainly has changed over the decades.

The Teapot Service Station is Gone??
Last week on our way to my parents, Ann told me she wanted to stop at the Teapot Gas Station (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Teapot_Dome_Service_Station), not to be confused with the Teapot Dome Scandal. The Teapot Dome Service Station is one of those odd side-of-the-highway tourist stops along Interstate 82 in Zillah, Washington.
When you are bulleting past at 70 mph, it is one of those places where it is easy to say "we'll stop next time". Well, I've been saying that for more than six years. Ann has been saying it longer. So, when she says "it's time to stop", I took her request seriously. Well, almost seriously. I did give her one of those looks of, "do you really mean it or are you joking". She returned the look of, "I am not joking". It turns out she really meant it. I really didn't mind as it was a beautiful day and we were in no particular hurry.
We pulled off the freeway, crossed the freeway over a bridge, and pulled up to the place where the teapot stop was supposed to be. Only, it was missing. Everything was there — pumps (can't see them in the pic), a sign, a foundation — except for the teapot itself.
Confused, we both immediately reached for our phones and revved up our Googlers. Truth was, we were also racing to see who could learn the fate of the teapot first. We do that a lot. We are both competitive. In fact, it pains me to say it, but, yes, she won. The Android beat the iPhone. Maybe it was operator error?
Humbled by my defeat, we focused on the fate of the teapot building. We learned that just over a month ago, in March of 2012, the Teapot was moved to a new location closer to downtown Zillah, a town not much bigger than the teapot itself. Somehow, it had been hit by a car. We both suspect that probably alcohol had been involved . . . or just plain stupidity.
After taking shots of the non-existant teapot, we raced into town to get pictures of us and this unusual landmark.
It just goes to show that sometimes stopping 'next time' will be too late. Carpe Diem when you have the chance.

His Bucket List Checked, Kevin Heads Back to Georgia
Kevin filed this report from Moab at the end of the Willys Overland Rally, Moab 2012. Thanks Kevin! Don't forget to visit the oldwillysforum.com to prepare for next year's rally.
Kevin writes, "We made it to Moab from Georgia, what an experience! I traveled 1,750 miles @ 25 cents per mile.
I had my share of adventure — Tranny coolant line breaks, gas gauge peg's at fuel, lost a gas cap and bought a non-vent cap, which caused every hose connected to the tank leak like the Titanic of gas, loose distributor, two plug wires not doing their job, busted motor mouint, spring perches broke (spot welded). All the particapants made it up the Pucker Hill, but me … oh what fun it is to get stuck and broke down. Despite all of this, I had a Great Time!!! These people know how to party and have an honest good time!
All too quickly MOAB 3 – 2012 has come to an end. So, I'm on my way back to Georgia, carrying plenty of red sand for the ride home.
One more item off the Bucket List."

Jockey Don Howard Featured at JeepTruck
Mark has a nice article at Jeeptruck.com about Don Howard, a former horse race jockey, who ran a jeep rental business out of Creede, Colorado. Don's family has used jeeps for several generations, partly because the family has a ranch along the Continental Divide at 10,500 feet.
Saturday at the Midwest Willys Reunion Spring 2012
Sebastian and 13 of his fellow Flat Fender Club of Butler Members made the round trip in a van from Pennsylvania to the Midwest Willys Reunion today. Sebastian reports it was a fun-filled, but long day. He took a variety of pictures and has been kind enough to share some with us. He will be publishing more pictures and full write up at his blog on Sunday.
Below is a group shot from Saturday:

Cleaning my Parents' Garage
While the folks in Ohio played with their jeeps and the people in Moab explored with their wagons and trucks, I got to clean my parents garage. I have wanted to tackle this project for a couple years now, but haven't been able to for one reason or another.
However, this week, with dad still recovering from surgery (and having a tough time with it — nothing like having a persistent cough after having your sternum sliced open), Ann and I had some free time in between helping him and mom. So, for the past three days we have been unpiling junk in the garage, sweeping up varmit feecees, organizing the unorganizable, shop vacing, and cleaning.
While we didn't clean everything, we tackled enough of the garage to feel like we had won the battle. Even better, when we began there was only enough room to fit one car. Now, two vehicles can fit with room to spare. Along the way I discovered some treasures, such as some brass inner tube caps (now on Biscuit), assorted transfercase and transmission rebuilt kits, the vin plate for my dad's 1960 CJ-5 (which seems an appropriate direction to go with a next build project), and a Warn Overdrive Parts Catalog, which I think might be kind of rare. I'll post the entire catalog online in the next few days. Below is the clean garage and the cover of the catalog.
Newhouse Hi-Performance Equipment from 1952
Glenn forwarded a couple pages of this old catalog for hi-performance parts that included a few for the jeep. He sent these to me after a short discussion with Scott, who races using F-head and L-head motors (more on that to come).
According to Scott, "I have bored them up to .092 oversized and I have had about 6 different cams made by crane cams. The motor I have had the best luck with so far is .060 over with dome style pistons. It has 1.7 ratio roller rockers. It is a F head. I cut the side of the head open and welded the water jackets and built an intake manifold that is 8″ high. With a 500 cfm holley ive been able to get 7000 rpm out of it."
Scott's experimentation has been done simultaneous to Sam at Flatfender Willys, who experimented, just for fun, with hi-po parts in a flat head with modern honda fuel injection. Sam did a few other things to the engine, but I don't precisely remember what. Sam and a friend drove the motor hard, before it finally gave out, though a couple transfer cases and a drive line gave out before the motor did.
Here are the two pages from Glenn.
Abbreviations 101 – Willys Horn Ass.
Robin shared this humorous advertisement. The seller either carefully, or not, decided on a peculiar abbreviation for the word 'assembly'.

Here is a snapshot of it.
CJ-3B – Mahindra in India
Buz spotted this Mahindra at the team-bhp website.
He notes, "The post below this one mentions "One will find hoards of such jeep rotting" in India. I guess they aren't going to the scrap mill like over here."
Wrestling with the Mighty BIscuit
During my last visit to my parents' house, I tried starting Biscuit. The engine would turn over, but wouldn't fire. It didn't take long for me to figure out that the electric fuel pump no longer worked. So, I decided on my next visit I'd change from the electric to the stock manual pump.
Today, I took on that project. While a very simple changeover in theory, the practice turned out to be more of a challenge than I expected. For example, the first step in the process required me to break into my tool box, as the keys to my tool box disappeared during my move last summer. After spending an hour searching for the keys, I finally gave up and 'removed' the lock' (with hammer, screw driver, and little finesse).
It was surprisingly easy to remove the lock. However, it was surprisingly difficult to get the lock portion of the drawers to unlock. I won't bore you with the embarrassing details, but let's just say that it took us about an hour and half to finally get the tool chest unlocked. Oh, good times!
Next, I had to start pulling off the electrical pump and installing the manual one. It just seemed like I dropped every socked a hundred times, grabbed the wrong wrench with each reach, had to search through the barn to find rarely used tools I had stowed away, and more. Nothing seemed to be easy about the project.
Finally, about 5pm, Ann wandered out to see how I was. I was not good. The socket has just slide off my socket wrench extension again, which meant I had to climb down onto the tarp, scoot under the jeep, and retrieve it, again. I shared some choice words about Biscuit with Ann. She decided to take a picture and post it on Facebook Here is the picture and what she wrote:
Today, under a cloud of tools, grease, and a broken fuel pump came the flood of curse words and the exclamation from Mr eWillys.com himself…. David Eilers "hates Jeeps" 🙁
It took me until about 7pm, but I did finally get the fuel pump installed and the hoses attached. Even better, everything worked. So, now Biscuit and I are all lovely dovey again.
So, I'm done with jeeps for today. Updates tomorrow.
The Earth Moved Under Paul's Feet
Paul sent this to my inbox today. A couple days ago he removed his stainless steel body from his frame so he can complete the work on his frame. It's a good thing he listened to his intuition!
"I spent a few hours yesterday in the connex cleaning up my mess and double checking the security of the Willys body resting on the 2X4 support framework. For the most part I felt the body was safely held three feet above the floor but my mind kept coming back to the thought "Would it stay in position during an earthquake?" Since it's much faster and easier to add additional support structure than it is to repair damaged stainless body panels I fitted eight more bracing legs to the existing body holder. I really didn't think any additional strength was necessary but I'd sleep easier with this bit of overkill engineering and the cost in time and money was negligible.
While taking a shower this morning I was surprised when the house started rocking back and forth as several sharp jolts announced the arrival of an earthquake. The quake was a small one, only about 4.6 but it was close to Anchorage (about ten miles away) and it was over quickly. After getting dressed I hurried to the connex, opened the door and viewed a beautiful sight. The Willys body was safely resting on the framework undamaged and perfectly aligned on the supports.
I realize rebuilding Jeeps can be an experience in frustration when money and time conflict with dreams but I really could do without adding earthquakes into the mix. I'm slow enough as it is, I don't need Mother Nature increasing my heart rate with exciting special effects. On the other hand I'm happy the Willys is safe, the body support held and I don't have to repair any damaged body panels. Now all I have to do is to hurry to get the frame work accomplished and reattach the body to the chassis before anymore earthquakes visit my workspace."
Layton's Family Restaurant with a Willys Wagon Sign
Gerald forwarded pictures of this sign (thanks!). While the Willys Wagon is featured prominently on this sign, I couldn't find any evidence of its existence elsewhere within the restaurant. Layton's is located in Ocean City, Md, and is supposed to be pretty good according to Urbanspoon.

CJ-3A spotted in The Dalles
On our way home from the WAAAM on Saturday we decided to drive through The Dalles, a small town whose name isn't pronounced like 'Dallas' but rather like 'The Dallzzzz". While driving through I took an unplanned turn, then crossed over to a side street where I spotted this CJ-3A (which of course required a few pictures).
Modified Flatfender Palmyra, IN **SOLD**
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay.
This probably seemed like a good idea at the time ….
" For auction is my 1946 Willys CJ2A "modified". This vehicle sits upon a cut down 1973 K-5 Chevrolet chassis. It has a cast iron 4 speed manual transmission and cast iron gear driven transfer case! Rear differential is 12 bolt limited slip and front is 10 bolt with manual lock outs. Disc brakes up front and drums in the rear. There is currently no engine!! It was last fitted with a 250 cid GM inline six. Just about anything with a Chevrolet bolt pattern can be made to fit! The top was custom fabricated and appears to be aluminum. The body has, what I would consider, a lot of rust, but is all there and still has many usable parts. Everything about the driveline worked fine when the engine was pulled in 2009. It has been sitting ever since (except to be towed)."
Don's 1950 M-38 & M-35
Don forwarded us some pictures of his M-38 and M-35. It took him one year to build the M-38 from parts. I think it looks terrific!

The GPW Scam is Back
UPDATE: The GPW Scam is back with the same pics. I've flagged about twenty of them over the past couple days. The price varies, but always around $5000. Below is the picture most often used:
FROM September 24, 2011 … Here is how the scam works.
Rob is sharing the email exchange he had with the GPW scam:
Here is the latest on the 42 GPW scam including the fake invoice from Google Checkout. The request for the Western Union money order is not how Google Checkout transfers funds.

Ralph's CJ-2A. More on his Jeep later.
It was a gorgeous day at the WAAAM military day. Ann and I are both sun burnt and relaxing to a couple bloody marys to help us cool down. We met a lot of nice folks, sold books and t-shirts, and got to check out a variety of jeeps.
Brian, who is the resident jeep guy at the WAAAM has about eight jeeps (I lost count, so I could be wrong on the exact number) just at the museum. Some have been restored and some are hidden away in one of the ancillary hangers, which Ann and I got to see. Brian's jeep of choice is the M-38A1, but he has a variety of them at various places he owns. After talking with Brian a bit, he offered to show us his dad's 1976 CJ-5 that he bought new. He said it only has 5000 miles on it and sports the original LEVI package. I have never seen an original LEVI package like he showed us. Even Brian doesn't get to drive his dad's jeep … (see the pic at the bottom of the post – everything is original).
I wanted to thank Ralph for dropping by in his CJ-2A. He has read eWillys for a few years now and lives in Hood River. He came by to enjoy the planes, meet me and purchase a book. Later in the day we walked out to check out his jeep. Thanks for coming by Ralph!
Thanks to Blaine for dropping by as well. I'll see you again at the FC Get Together!
Here are a few pics:
My gal just loves a big gun. We learned from one of the visitors that the reason these jeeps don't tip over when the 106mm cannon fires is that it actually fires in two directions, backwards and forwards. She was very happy to explain this to me!

CBD has recently exploded in popularity around the country, with tinctures, ointments, vaping oils and other products showing up in shops. WDAY photo
FARGO — The Fargo Police Department has issued an advisory clarifying that cannabidiol oil products — commonly called CBD — are legal in North Dakota, provided they are derived from legally produced hemp.
After the 2018 farm bill legalized hemp under certain restrictions, the North Dakota Legislature passed a law to allow CBD products, provided they are properly sourced.
"The short answer to whether CBD products are legal to possess in North Dakota is YES, as long as the CBD is extracted from legally produced hemp," according to the advisory released Wednesday, June 19, by police after consultation with the Cass County State's Attorney's Office.
North Dakota college aims to offer first hemp degree in the state
South Dakota AG's statements on hemp, CBD oil cause confusion
Protesters say Sanford uncooperative in providing medical marijuana certification to patients
The farm bill allows hemp with a concentration of tetrahydrocannabinol, commonly called THC, of not more than 0.3% on a dry weight basis. THC is the psychoactive ingredient in marijuana, responsible for producing a user's high.
North Dakota House Bill 1113, which passed and was signed into law in April with an emergency clause, provides that CBD extracted from legally produced hemp and containing less than 0.3% THC is legal to possess.
CBD has recently exploded in popularity around the country, with tinctures, ointments, vaping oils and other products showing up in shops. It's touted as a treatment for various conditions from depression to chronic pain to anxiety. Despite its popularity, there's little research to back up the claims of its effectiveness.
"Taking this into consideration, citizens are advised to still do their due diligence in selecting the types of products they use, should they decide to utilize CBD products, as there is always the possibility of differences in quality depending on the manufacturer, as there is with all consumer goods," the advisory said.
Both Minnesota and North Dakota allow medical marijuana to treat certain conditions, provided patients are certified by a qualified health provider as having the conditions.

Stroke is one of the leading causes of death in the United States, and some of these are preventable with proper medical attention. When a doctor fails to accurately diagnose a stroke and a patient suffers harm, the patient may have grounds for a medical malpractice lawsuit against the doctor. If you or a loved one suffered any injury from failure to diagnose a stroke, contact the law office of Sullivan, Papain, Block, McGrath & Cannavo, P.C., today to schedule a free consultation with a New York City medical malpractice attorney.
Any medical malpractice claim can be extremely complex and proving standard of care violations is not always straightforward. An attorney can provide a much higher degree of legal representation than the average client could manage alone and will also likely lead to much more compensation for the client than he or she could have hoped to collect without an attorney.
A medical malpractice lawyer will help with insurance-related issues, help track a client's personal finances and other issues during a lawsuit, build a strong case that supports a client's claim, and contact expert witnesses who provide testimony in a case involving a failed stroke diagnosis.
Many medical conditions, including strokes, have symptoms that may appear to indicate other medical conditions. For this reason, a doctor must use a differential diagnosis process to determine a patient's condition based on a process of elimination. If a doctor fails to follow a proper diagnostic procedure or otherwise fails to competently diagnose a patient with a stroke, the doctor is liable for any resulting damages.
For example, if a patient complains of numbness and/or weakness in one side of the body, headache, dizziness, and difficulty walking, these are all common symptoms of a stroke, and the attending physician must account for this in the diagnostic process and rule out a stroke as a possible diagnosis. A plaintiff's attorney will contact an expert witness with a medical background who can testify as to whether the doctor's diagnostic process was acceptable for the given situation.
Failing to properly diagnose a stroke can lead to a patient incurring additional medical expenses, lost income from time spent out of work in recovery, pain and suffering, and other types of compensation depending on specific circumstances. For example, a doctor who was grossly negligent may be liable for punitive damages in addition to economic and non-economic damages to the patient.
If you or someone you know recently suffered any harm from a failed stroke diagnosis, a medical malpractice attorney can help hold the responsible doctor accountable for the error and help you secure compensation for the resulting damages. Contact Sullivan, Papain, Block, McGrath & Cannavo, P.C., today to schedule a free case evaluation with one of our medical malpractice attorneys in New York, and we will let you know how our firm can help.

CARM News September 2015
Sadly we farewell Professor You-Gan Wang at the end of the month, he will be greatly missed by many, and we wish him the very best in his future endeavors.
"It has been 5 and half years and I have now decided to move on to different role at QUT in a few weeks. I would like to take this opportunity to thank everyone for their support, help and friendship over these years. As we summarized in the 5 years report, CARM has been actively involved in teaching, research and external grants. We also trained many Honours, Master and PhD students together with other colleagues in UQ, CSIRO and Queensland Governments. I wish to thank DAF colleagues, Warwick Nash for his great leadership, Tony Courtney for close collaboration, Mick O'Neill for his arrangement and management of many fisheries projects, Alex Campbell and George Leigh for numerous interactions and scientific inputs.
While my UQ mission is complete, I wish you a great success in your aspiring career."
CARM researcher, Associate Professor Anthony J. Richardson, as part of an international team has published a global study in the journal Nature Climate Change. The study reveals anticipated changes in the structure of biological communities in the global ocean under future climate change. Using the velocity of climate change to track the speed and direction that temperature progresses across the ocean surface, we projected movement of 13 000 marine species' ranges up to the end of the century on the basis of a business-as-usual and an emission-stabilisation pathway. Our approach was novel in that it continually constrained range shifts on the basis of both environmental and climate connectivity; included an order of magnitude more species than any previous study; and explored climate-driven changes in community composition, globally, rather than quantifying range shifts for individual species. Under both climate-change scenarios, range expansions exceed range contractions. This implies that while losses in biodiversity appear inevitable in the tropics, elsewhere, biodiversity is likely to increase. Both effects are more pronounced under the business-as-usual scenario, emphasizing that it is not too late to act on climate change if ecological impacts are to be limited.

Presumption of Reasonableness of Sentencing
A leading case summery of Harvard Law Review: Rita v. United States (2007) (11 pages)
Sixth Amendment — Federal Sentencing Guidelines — Presumption of Reasonableness
In United States v. Booker, the Supreme Court found that the Federal Sentencing Guidelines violated the Sixth Amendment. It held the Guidelines unconstitutional because they required judges to increase sentences above the level authorized by facts conceded by the defendant or found by a jury beyond a reasonable doubt. Its remedy — making the Guidelines advisory rather than mandatory and changing the standard of review on appeal to reasonableness — created a host of contested legal questions, including whether appellate courts could apply a presumption of reasonableness in reviewing sentences falling within the applicable Guidelines range.
Last Term, in Rita v. United States, the Supreme Court held that an appellate court could apply such a presumption. But by also articulating a weak standard for the requirement that a sentencing judge provide a statement of reasons for the penalty she imposes, the Court
undermined the rationale justifying the presumption. In so doing, i implicitly sanctioned lower court treatment of the Guidelines as de facto mandatory after Booker. To justify an appellate presumption founded on the exercise of independent trial-level judgment and to make real the constitutional promise of Booker, trial judges should be required to express in writing their precise reasons for choosing a particular sentence and rejecting any departures sought by the defendant. In January 2003, Victor Rita purchased a machine gun parts kit from InterOrdnance of America, Inc., the target of a Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives investigation. That October, Rita provided testimony before a grand jury that was contradicted by separate evidence. The government indicted Rita in the United States District Court for the District of North Carolina on various charges, including making false statements under oath to a federal grand jury. The jury convicted Rita on all counts.

Cure for Misplaced Fear
by Wangari Murathe
11/17/2012 / Devotionals
"Honor everyone. Love the brotherhood. Fear God. Honor the emperor. (1 Peter 2:17 E.S.V)
Fear is an emotion caused by the belief that someone or something is dangerous, likely to cause pain, or a threat. Healthy fear of danger is good because it induces the "flee or fight" reaction that ensures our survival. Healthy fear of the Lord is good and wise because it keeps us humble and contrite in relation to our maker and protector. "As a father has compassion on his children, so the LORD has compassion on those who fear him;" (Psalm 103:13). It also keeps us moral and righteous.
But there is fear which does a great deal of harm, especially that which is borne out of hatred. And this situation arises a lot in politics where politicians manipulate the electorate by instilling fear of their opponent's culture, belief system and perceived policies. They create a climate of euphoria based on misplaced fear. Success of these manipulations denies people the option of making a better choice from a position of understanding and respect. Like George Washington Carver said, "Fear of something is at the root of hate for others, and hate within eventually destroys the hater".
Let us work on finding out the real truth on every matter and not be blown away by biased opinions of those who selfishly want to keep us ignorant. "Then you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free." (John 8:32)
The world we see that seems so insane is the result of a belief system that is not working. To perceive the world differently, we must be willing to change our belief system, let the past slip away, expand our sense of now, and dissolve the fear in our minds. William James

Surely you remember the Six Degrees of Kevin Bacon? The automated Oracle of Bacon has actually gone through IMDB and calculated a Bacon score for celebrities.
No one has yet produced a comparable political version of the Bacon index. Perhaps the time has come for The Six Degrees Of Bush's War, where any random world event can be tied within six leaps of logic to the decision to invade Iraq The scores assigned can be called a Bushit score, which should make Bush haters happy and just confuse Bush supporters (as it is a term mostly unfamiliar to the right). Just like the Bacon index the best practically attainable Bushit score is a 1.
The UK Guardian scores a Bushit of 1 with this headline – The victims of the tsunami pay the price of war on Iraq.

Bisbee '17
A small US town relives a trauma from the past in a dazzling new documentary by acclaimed Kate Plays Christine director Robert Greene.
Dir-Scr Robert Greene
Prod Douglas Tirola, Susan Bedusa, Bennett Elliott
Sales MetFilm Sales
In 1917, in the Arizona town of Bisbee, workers at a local mine went on strike. What followed remains a shocking yet little-known episode in the history of labour relations in the country: some 1200 men, mostly immigrants, were rounded up and deported to the middle of the desert where they were left to die. A century later, documentarian Robert Greene arrived in Bisbee to chronicle an attempt by the townsfolk to reconstruct what took place. Following on from Actress and Kate Plays Christine, Bisbee '17 confirms Greene as one of the leading makers of non-fiction in the US. It is a haunting tribute to a forgotten struggle, in which the ghosts of the past engage with the concerns of those living in the present. It's an astonishing and moving work.

Are These the Most Beautiful Cruise Ships?
Cruise Line & Cruise Ship Janeen Christoff February 07, 2017
Cruise ships have been admired for their stunning beauty throughout the ages but which ones stand out in the modern era? USA Today has rounded up and ranked some of the world's most beautiful ships.
There are 25 ships on the list, but jumping to the top three, you have Disney's Magic Class.
"One doesn't even have to be a Disney fan to appreciate the beautiful ships Disney Cruise Line "imagined" with its 83,338-gt, 2,700-guest, 1998-built Disney Magic and 1999-built Disney Wonder," says Peter Knego.
Taking the number-two spot is the Queen Mary 2.
"If that iconic orange and black funnel were just a few feet taller, Cunard Line's mighty Queen Mary 2 might well have topped this list. Alas, since the entire ship needs to clear New York's Verrazano Narrows Bridge, it's probably best that it remains just as it is," writes Knego.
READ MORE: REPORT: Is the Air on Cruise Ships Dangerous to Your Health?
In the top spot is the Sea Cloud.
"Encountering the ultra-deluxe Sea Cloud is an almost otherworldly experience. It is the real deal, a survivor of a bygone era, combining splendid architecture with museum-quality craftsmanship and a luxury cruise experience on par with that of a private yacht -- which is fitting since it was actually built as one," says Knego.
Were your favorites on the list? Read on for more of the top 25 most beautiful ships here.

Think China's a threat to our economy? Think again.
So much for 'foreign' imports. China's announcement that its 2005 global trade surplus tripled to a record $102 billion is apparently very good news for Fortune 500 companies.
About half the exports coming out of China are actually from big foreign multinationals that use the mainland as a production base. They sell most of that stuff in China but also reexport to other markets.Now you know where the record corporate profits are coming from.
In the Chinese high-tech sector, the percentage actually is closer to 90% penetration by foreigners. Global auto companies such as Volkswagen, General Motors (GM), Toyota (TM), Nissan (NSANY), and Honda (HMC) dominate market share in on the mainland. Global banks such as HSBC (HBC), Bank of America (BAC) , Goldman Sachs (GS), and Citibank (CITI) are making serious inroads into China's rapidly growing banking and financial services markets.
This is actually a win-win arrangement. In fact, some Chinese officials have openly wondered if China's development strategy has been too much of a good thing for the West. One could argue that it's China that faces the risk of losing out by ceding too many key markets to foreign interests in higher-end markets, which could make it difficult for Chinese world-beating companies to emerge.
The corresponding loss of American manufacturing jobs and the lost opportunity for Chinese to develop their own high-tech industries doesn't worry this mainstream media pundit. What does worry him?
the news that China's foreign exchange reserves (which finished 2005 at $819 billion) likely will top $1 trillion in late 2006, overtaking Japan as the country with the biggest stockpile in the world.We're not the only ones in deep doo-doo. Half their wealth is an I.O.U.!
One trillion, about half the size of China's total economy, would be an astonishing figure, even for a rapidly developing economy like China.
The superfast growth in reserves is being fueled by heavy inflows of foreign money and the repatriation of earnings that Chinese companies earn overseas.Now, we see what's bothering him. It's the fact that someone else CONTROLS the money! Why's that a problem?
Given China's tight capital controls, a good chunk of that money has to be converted back into yuan and then reinvested by the central bank into other investments, mostly U.S. Treasury bonds and Euro assets.
In recent years that, again, has been a great deal for the U.S., which relies on foreign capital, particularly from Asia, to make up for its massive current-account deficit with the rest of the world.We've heard this one before. But, did you ever ask yourself why "long-term interest rates would likely rise?" I mean, if it's only "likely," then that means that it's not necessary, right?
* * *
China is the No. 2 holder of Treasuries behind Japan, and a sudden pull-out would be felt keenly in both the Treasury bond markets, where long-term interest rates would likely rise, and in the dollar, which would probably tumble and unsettle U.S. stock markets.
Yeah, you say, but the Fed does it to "control inflation" and "attract investors." If I hear that phony baloney one more time, I am going to SCREAM.
Interest is, by definition, inflationary. It derives its value from the dollar it's collected against, thereby immediately devaluing that dollar the second it attaches to it. Interest CANNOT control inflation; funny money at interest is behind inflation!
As for raising interest rates to "attract investors" in a cash-strapped economy, that's the equivalent of pouring blood in shark infested waters to save the man overboard.
Then, why does the FED raise interest rates even when they know it will drain our economy? Answer: because they CAN!
Now, why would China sell its dollars?
[to] further capital injections into weak Chinese banks that have heavy dud loans, massive infrastructure investments at home, or even bailing out state-owned mainland companies that are struggling. [like the US might do for Ford, GM, and Delphi if Congress had half a brain]Yes, believe it or not, folks. China may actually do something good for its own people. China might build roads, improve water systems, invest in education and housing for its real wealth - its people - and pull its own domestic economy up by its bootstraps.
China might do what America will never do while the current Administration and incumbent Congress is in power. So, is China a threat because it might do something good for its people? Or, is the real threat from those who don't want any country's people to prosper, including us?
Never fear. This media pundit recommends that the US and China take the following measure to mitigate the danger:
[T]he U.S. [needs to] improve its consumer savings rate and tighten government spending . . . China, in turn, needs to move forward with currency reforms and liberalize its capital controls. [First, let it's currency float aimlessly.]Let us manage your money for you; you can't be trusted to manage it yourself.
Longer term, China needs to abandon its tight capital controls . . . [and allow foreign financiers to exploit its] $1.8 trillion in household savings . . . that's largely bottled up inside China's banking system.
If China wants to truly avoid the boom-and-bust cycles that have tripped up other economies at this stage of development, it needs a more flexible currency and capital flow regime.For example, look at the American economy under the Federal Reserve - perfectly stable.
