I've read that they are actually needing "800 audiences" for something on November 19.
One place saying the 19th, one the 21st??
After the success of The Amazing Race Asia Season 4 showcasing the immense beauty of Albay and the majestic Mount Mayon now comes the Amazing Race Australia as they choose Legazpi City as the next pitstop. The Amazing Race Australia will visit Legazpi City this month (confidential) and the detours and challenges will be shot in picturesque locations such as Legazpi Airport, Lignon Hill, Mt. Mayon, Cagsawa Ruins, Cagraray Island and Misibis Bay.
This was posted on TARA 4's facebook page less than 24 hours ago. It seems they will be using (almost) the exact same task as from TARA 4 (seeing the pattern from the first TARAus)http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=2428811072322&set=t.100001573758309&type=1&theater
Some location spoilers about Philippines. Possibly the first leg as it is near Manila?"Amazing race have been here b4. In Laguna- my province ) they went 2 Victoria &called it giant Duck??"

The quickest way to Fraser is direct to Inskip via the Bruce Highway to Gympie and then out to Rainbow beach and Inskip. About a three hour drive (200km to Gympie and about 80 to Rainbow) Barge takes about 15 minutes to Hook Point.Another way is continue on through Gympie to Maryborough, (about 300km) then in to Hervey Bay to get the barge from River Heads. Allow about 4 hours this way. The barge takes about 45 minutes to the Kingfisher Resort. A third way is to take a barge from Hervey Bay.World Heritage site Fraser Island is the worlds largest sand island, just north of Rainbow Beach. A four wheel drive vehicle is needed to see the islands attractions, from beautiful Lake McKenzie to the rainforest near Central Station and the coloured cliffs of the Cathedrals.

MH17: U.S. Points Finger at Russia, Russia Deflects Blame
President Barack Obama reiterated his demand that Russian President Vladimir Putin compel the rebels to clear the way for investigators to access the crash site, which remains chaotic four days after the jet crashed.

Peavy beats former mates at Fenway Park
BOSTON -- John Farrell's words proved prophetic.
"I don't think Jake needs many pointers going into tonight," the Red Sox manager said hours before right-hander Jake Peavy pitched against the White Sox, the team from which the Red Sox acquired him on July 30. "I always think [the familiarity] goes back to swinging in favor of the pitcher because he's the one that knows the pitch selection and the location in which he's intending to go to."View Full Game Coverage
BOSTON -- John Farrell's words proved prophetic.
"I don't think Jake needs many pointers going into tonight," the Red Sox manager said hours before right-hander Jake Peavy pitched against the White Sox, the team from which the Red Sox acquired him on July 30. "I always think [the familiarity] goes back to swinging in favor of the pitcher because he's the one that knows the pitch selection and the location in which he's intending to go to."View Full Game Coverage
Peavy indeed managed just fine, limiting the White Sox to two runs on five hits in seven innings en route to the 7-2 Red Sox win, their sixth in the last seven games. He walked one and struck out four while throwing 68 of his 109 pitches for strikes as his team clinched its Major League-best 28th series of the year.
Farrell trusted Peavy, who was at 99 pitches after six innings, with one more frame, and that faith was rewarded. Peavy allowed a harmless two-out single in a 10-pitch inning that included two flyouts to the warning track to conclude his night.
The strong outing lowered Peavy's ERA to 3.18 and WHIP to 0.96 in six starts since joining the Red Sox.
"He's been everything we could've hoped for since coming over here," Farrell said. "He's worked deep in games, he's thrown a lot of strikes, he's made some big pitches in key moments when he's needed and even when he's got some traffic on the basepaths, he finds a way to minimize the overall damage."
Peavy's outing -- which he was only moderately pleased with overall, saying he didn't have great stuff and didn't get ahead as much as he would've liked -- was the 11th in a row in which the Red Sox starter allowed three or fewer earned runs. The team hasn't done that in 12 straight games since 1915.
"The stretch that we're on, we walk on the field with a lot of confidence knowing the game is going to be under control from the start," Farrell said.
Coincidentally, one of the times Chicago did get to Peavy, one of the newer White Sox did the damage. Center fielder Avisail Garcia, who came over from the Tigers in that same deal, struck for an RBI single in the fourth.
Other than that, though, Peavy had the upper hand. He held Adam Dunn to an 0-for-3 night with a walk and a strikeout swinging at an 85-mph fastball in the fourth.
"Adam is my best friend in the world, so it was different for sure," said a smiling Peavy, who planned to go out to dinner with several of his former teammates after the game. "I threw him some good pitches, and I threw him some pitches he fouled off that he probably could have done something with. But it's always nice when you come out on top when you don't have to listen to it."
Added Dunn: "That's kind of a bad thing about being a buddy with a pitcher. They get traded and everything you've told them, it's not very good. He had a good game plan and when he executed, that's what happens.
When Peavy did falter -- the White Sox scored a single run in each of the third and fourth innings -- his offense picked him up almost immediately, battering Chicago lefty John Danks for six runs (five earned) on 11 hits in five innings.
The third inning featured back-to-back two-out doubles from Mike Napoli and Jonny Gomes before the Red Sox took the lead for good with a three-run fourth.
Jacoby Ellsbury knocked a ground-rule double to right to plate David Ross, who bunted for a single to open the frame. Dustin Pedroia grounded out to the right side to bring in Xander Bogaerts, then David Ortiz lined a single to left to score Ellsbury and bring the lead to 5-2.
Bogaerts (2-for-3, walk) added insurance with an RBI single in the fifth, as did Shane Victorino, scoring on a wild pitch in the sixth.
Seven Red Sox batters posted multi-hit games, including Ortiz, who went 2-for-4 with an RBI and a pair of line-drive singles a day after snapping his six-game hitless streak.
Napoli got the scoring started in the first inning with a single to left to score Ellsbury, his seventh RBI in six games since returning from a bout of plantar fasciitis. It was also his 76th of the season, a new career high.
Now at 81-56, the Red Sox await Sept. 1 reinforcements as they hope the final stretch of this regular season is far different from the last two. Farrell doesn't expect the recent history to be a problem.
"The record to date speaks to the depth and the evenness of this team," he said. "Our starting rotation has been very consistent. Our lineup up and down, one through nine, has got a grind-it-out approach that allows us to get to bullpens, sometimes earlier in the game maybe than some others.
"The reason this team has performed so well is just the overall depth. And that doesn't stop at the 25-man roster."

"The Locavore Way" with Amy Cotler
Author of "The Locavore Way" Amy Cotler hosted a discussion and booking signing with Slow Food BU this past Wednesday. The dreary weather didn't stop a committed group of slow foodies, who listened intently to Cotler's tips and engaging stories. With a background as a chef and recipe developer, she originally approached local, fresh food from a taste and pleasure perspective.
She acknowledged that we may all come from different places in our interest in sustainable, local foods. But the benefits, to the environment (less toxic), economic development (keeps your money close to home), and personal health, benefit us all. Cotler reiterated that change happens from the ground up, that small things can start in the community and build to a big-scale change. Often this starts with a simple self-interest. "I want local foods because____."
When the issue of budget and high price of local foods was brought up, she shared some simple tips for cutting costs, such as buying in bulk, sharing 2nd offerings from farmers, and savoring fruits and vegetables ONLY when in peak season. She reminded us that grains and beans, dried, are very very inexpensive, and meat needs to only be eaten occasionally. Learning to cook is a precious skill that will save you a lot of money, and probably earn you a few new friends. It was a great way to beat a rainy night! Thanks to all that came, and to Amy for sharing her wisdom and time with us!
Looking for winter local food?
Check out the Downtown Crossing Holiday Market, Somerville Winter Farmers Market, or Sherman Market!
If you want more information on Sustainable Agriculture check out the National Sustainable Ag Coalition.
What makes YOU choose local foods? What are some of your tips for staying local in the winter?

Magic Mile Power Rankings: Phoenix
It may have lacked the excitement that the thrilling Daytona 500 offered in the first week, but Sunday's The Profit on CNBC 500 at Phoenix International Raceway provided quite the setting for another driver that was looking to make his way into the Chase early.
Kevin Harvick had a rocket machine on Sunday, leading over 220 laps en route to his first win driving the No. 4 Jimmy John's Chevy for Stewart Haas Racing. Harvick was dominant on restarts, new tires, old tires and on pit road, winning the second race of the season and clinching a spot as one of the 16 drivers to make this year's newly formatted Chase for the Sprint Cup championship.
So, how much did Harvick's victory influence this week's Magic Mile Power Rankings? Here's a look at the MMPR heading into Race 3 at Las Vegas Motor Speedway on Sunday:
1. Dale Earnhardt Jr. - Nope. No budging from the perch for the 88. Once again, Junior had one of the strongest cars in the field. The Daytona 500 champ ran inside the top 5 for all but a handful of laps, yet maybe the biggest surprise of all was that at no time did Junior take the lead in the race.
Previous ranking: First, --
2. Brad Keselowski - It's another strong start out of the gates for Bad Brad, who is hoping this year turns out a lot better than last. Keselowski was arguably the best driver during first eight races of last season, but struggled through the middle portion of the schedule before closing strong. Like Earnhardt, Keselowski was a top-five car all day at Phoenix, but like Junior never really threatened despite sitting on the pole.
Previous ranking: Third, +1
3. Jimmie Johnson - Six-Time ran inside the top-10 all afternoon, but like most of the field couldn't find a way to catch Harvick. The sixth-place finish had a lot to do with strong driving, but the strategy of Crew Chief Chad Knaus can't be ignored either. It was the kind of day we've grown accustomed to when it comes to the 48 team.
Previous ranking: Fourth, +1
4. Kevin Harvick - Simply a dominating performance for Stewart-Haas Racing No. 4 car. Harvick led 224 laps, the fourth time in his career he's led 200-plus laps in a race. He also won for the third time in the last four races at the Arizona raceway. And he did it in impressive fashion, winning every restart over the final half two-thirds of the race. Oh, and he made the Chase to boot.
Previous ranking: NR
5. Jeff Gordon - Maybe he wasn't deserving of such a low ranking last week, but he was very deserving of his leap up after joining Junior and Keselowski as the only drivers to score top-fives in the first two races of the season. Gordon fell back as far as 14th with 40 laps to go, but drove hard and put himself in position to make a move in the final 10-15 laps. Dude's on a mission.
Previous ranking: Ninth, +4
6. Joey Logano - Sneaking into the MMPR last week, Logano was a contender all day on Sunday. He ran no worse than third over the first 235 laps - leading 71 of them - and drove the wheels off the No. 22 Shell Pennzoil Ford in an effort to beat Harvick on the restarts. It just wasn't to be.
Previous ranking: 10th, +4
7. Denny Hamlin - The 11 cooled off in the latter portion of the race. It wasn't the strong finish Hamlin likely hoped for after finishing first, second and third in consecutive races from 2012-13.
Previous ranking: Second, -5
8. Matt Kenseth - After a disastrous trip to Phoenix last November (finishing 23rd and ending any realistic chances to catch Johnson in the Chase), the 20 team has to be happy driving out with a 12th-place finish. That said, there's still a lot of room for improvement.
Previous ranking: Fifth, -3
9. Ryan Newman - It was a seventh-place finish for the first-year Richard Childress Racing pilot, but overall it was a strong race for Newman. One of the few drivers to fall back and work his way to the front, Newman made a lot of passes, something that not many were able to do on Sunday.
Previous ranking: NR
10. Carl Edwards - To be honest, there's a handful of drivers that could have cracked the top 10 this week. But like Logano last week, let's roll with Edwards, who led a lap and showed an ability to drive passed cars on a day that was otherwise very much a follow-the-leader race.
Previous ranking: NR
Wave Around: Casey Mears - Not a bad pair of races to start the season for Mears, who followed up his 10th-place finish at Daytona with a 14th at Phoenix..
Out of MMPR: Ricky Stenhouse Jr., Austin Dillon, Greg Biffle
Previous MMPR No. 1s:
Week 1 - Dale Earnhardt Jr.
*This list is comprised of drivers that compete in the Sprint Cup Series on full-time basis.

A jagged, aggressive looking tread block helps to deliver a firm stability and responsiveness by increasing the contact patch with the road's surface.
Deep V-shaped grooves spanning outwards from the central circumferential tread block ensure any water is quickly evacuated away from the tyre, improving safety and traction, even in snow.
It's a great choice if you are looking for traction for your van or SUV during the winter months.

She is so beautiful, her hair is fantastic! Love her smile too! That place of the last photo has a great mixture os colors!
This is so exciting! Congratulations…it just keeps getting better and better. I look forward to the issue, however, I am even more excited about all the background work. Thanks for taking us along!
Pictures look really good. I really like the model and the picture of the graffiti wall. Nice, I look forward to finding you while I'm in New York in August.
If I had occasion to converse with any one of those young women, I'd probably melt into a puddle. So lovely, so young! I must be getting old. I look forward to more pix of your shoot; thanks for taking us for the ride.
Thanks so much Sart for giving us this glimpse into your work!
Oh Sart. How fun! Good for you. Every lucky girl who's graced this blog must have caught her breath when they read "real girl"…I know I did:) Good luck. Can't wait to see the outcome.
mr sartorialist, sir, you have the best job of life. and you're the best at it :) i love every picture!
my money's on andrea. she's the only new yorker you've shot who could pass for a model…
What is the opposite of a "real" girl?
I love her pleated blouse.
The location with the grafitti & yellow (not sure what that is) & the barber shop look cool.
She has a gorgeous smile…agreement on this :D
This young lady is lovely. She looks so fresh, natural and happy. But I fear that your shoot – like 99% of fashion shoots – will have her looking nonchalant and wistful, which would be a shame.
Thanks for the insight into the workings of a casting – I love behind the scenes views – and congratulations on getting the job! Well deserved ;o)
snocI such a myth that models are plain and boring and uninteresting, just because they look beatuiful, they must not have anything else to offer?! (Some commented that on the first pictures of models) Models comes with all different backgrounds. Some are illiterate because they're so young, some just because they're country/family are poor. But some of them are smart and becomes doctors, biotechnicians, photographers, writers, designers etc. after modeling. Models might know exatctly what they want to do after modelling, and look at modelling as a great opportunity to see the world, grow up, experince a different life. Who wouldn't take that chance if offered?!
There are uninteresting people everywhere, it's not exclusive to models.
Best regards A model
oh she is soo pretty, but she looks a little bit.. old. not old – old, but older..? my personal oppinion is the two in the first post. but hey, they are all gorgeous girls
Beautiful girl!
Very seventies.
This is great, Sart, and I'm so glad you have this opportunity! And may I just say that the outfit Kelly showed up in is fantastic? So many young women claim to be interested in "vintage." Then they all show up in exactly the same sort of "vintage" — the same 70s-80s poly dresses, cone-heeled peep-toe shoes, etc. I mean, it's OK, it's cool — but who ever thinks to wear spectator shoes? Fantastic! And the bakelite, or bakelite-type, bangles…I know they're hot right now, but you don't see people wearing interesting ones, like these. And is that a giant beetle ring she's got on? Anyway, I'm sure you'll be able to capture her innate style in the shoot. Have fun!
she's a pretty girl! nice photo
Nice girl, she is beautiful and sees to be very calm by the way, I think she is not very old, maybe 16, 17 yrs old.
But anyway, nice girl and beautiful place, gongratulations.
great face…does she have freckles? love that!
the locations look great too – cant wait to see it in the mag!
She is beautiful and charming!
I'm being jealous of her hair…:):):)

Greek hay- Cooking with Fenugreek
Venthayam(Methi in Hindi and Fenugreek in English) is a regular herb used in South Indian cooking, atleast once a week. Most of the spice powders will have the addition of roasted fenugreek, and it is also common in pickles to act as a stabilizer.
Both the leaves and seeds are used for cooking and flavoring, though they taste slightly bitter. Besides cooking, Fenugreek has a lot of medicinal uses:
– Fenugreek seeds help to lower cholesterol levels.
– The seeds are used as a cure(to control) diabetes (Check with the doctor first before using, as there can be some side effects)
– For women, fenugreek seeds are a good cure for Menopause and PMS. Regular use of fenugreek will increase lactation for nursing mothers. But if taken during pregnancy, the fenugreek infused water can induce labor, because of this use, it is also given during labor to help in the process of child birth. Fenugreek seeds with rice or Urad Dal(black lentil gram) is made into a soft pudding and that also helps to strengthen the uterus.
– Soaking a teaspoon of fenugreek seeds in half a cup of yogurt and taking it in the morning will reduce body heat.
– Fenugreek seeds with yogurt is a good cure for uncomfortable tummy (Diarrhea).
– When used with yogurt or vinegar as a conditioner, fenugreek seed paste can help in hair growth.
How to use fenugreek in cooking:
I like using fenugreek seeds for a spicy tamarind sauce and the leaves for a comforting rice dish(Khichdi).
Methi Khichdi: (Vegetables, rice and lentils with Fenugreek leaves)
Ingredients: serves-2
Rice- 1 cup
Lentils(yellow or green moong beans)- 1/2 cup
Salt- to taste
Turmeric powder- 1/2 tsp
Garam Masala powder- 2 tsp
Green chilies-2
Chopped Ginger and Garlic- 1 tsp each
Red onions- Chopped-1/4 cup
Fenugreek leaves- 1 cup
Mixed vegetables (carrot, peas,cauliflower, potato, beans)- all together- 1 cup
Olive oil- 1 tsp
Cumin seeds- 1 tsp
Cinnamon sticks- 1″ piece
Bay leaf-1
Cilantro leaves- to garnish
This dish can be prepared as a one pot dish, in a slow cooker, in a pressure cooker or a rice cooker. With mild spices and vegetables, it is the comfort food for a weekend brunch or a weekday dinner. It is very simple to prepare this khichdi and you can throw in all the veggies you want if you want to clear out the fridge. Whichever way you cook, add lot of water to cook the rice.
Stove top: Wash the lentils and rice, keep aside.Heat olive oil in a pan, add cumin seeds, bay leaf and cinnamon sticks. Fry well for a minute, add onions, green chilies, ginger and garlic and stir fry for 2-3 minutes. Add the fenugreek leaves, chopped vegetables, salt, turmeric powder, garam masala powder and stir fry well for another 2-3 minutes. Add about 6 cups of water, cover and let it simmer. Once the water is boiling, add the lentils and rice and simmer for 25 minutes or till the rice is cooked. Once in a while, mix the veggies and rice well and mash it as you cook. The more you mash them all together, the more tasty it till be. Once all of the veggies and rice is well mashed and is cooked through, garnish with cilantro leaves and serve hot with spiced yogurt(Kadhi).
Pressure cooker: Follow almost the same method but instead of waiting till the veggies are cooked, add rice and lentils and pressure cook for 2 whistles.
Rice Cooker: Cook till stir frying the vegetables in a pan. In the rice cooker, add water, rice and lentils and transfer the stir fried vegetables to the rice cooker. Cover and let it cook like normal rice.
Slow cooker: Stir fry the vegetables in the pan, transfer the rice, lentils and the vegetables to the slow cooker. Add atleast 8 cups of water (slow cooker needs more water than a rice cooker), set it on high (3 hours) or low(8 hours) for the rice to cook.
Cooking with Fenugreek Seeds:
Appalam Vathakozhambu (Poppadams in spicy tamarind sauce)
Can you cook without any vegetable to make a sauce? That too with poppadams? Sure you can. The simplest of all sauces in South Indian cooking, a favorite for summer season to have with yogurt rice.
Ingredients: (Serves-2)
Poppadams (about 14 each)
Green chilies- 2 each
Red Chilies- 2 each
Curry Leaves- 5
Tamarind- 1 small lemon size
Red Chili Powder- 1/2 tsp
Turmeric Powder- 1/4 tsp
Mustard seeds- 1 tsp
Fenugreek seeds- 1/2 tsp
Chana dal- 1 tsp
Asafoetida- 2 pinches
Salt- to taste
Gingerly oil- 4 tbsp (You can also use light olive oil)
Rice flour- 1 tbsp
To be ground to a powder
Coriander seeds- 1.5 tsp
Red Chilies-4
Chana dal- 1 tsp
Fenugreek seeds- 1/4 tsp
Soak the tamarind in about 200 ml of hot water. You can also substitute 1/4 tsp of tamarind paste for this. Squeeze out the juice from the tamarind, add another 100 ml of water, extract the juice again, filter and discard the pulp.
Roughly break the poppadams into two. Slit green chilies lengthwise.
Heat oil in a thick bottomed vessel(kadai) and add hing and mustard seeds. When the mustard seeds splutter, add chana dhal, fenugreek seeds, curry leaves ,red chilies and green chilies. Stir fry for a minute. Add the poppadams and salt and stir fry for another 2-3 minutes. Add turmeric powder, red chili powder and stir fry till the raw smell of the red chili powder disappears.
Pour the 300 ml of tamarind water into the pan and simmer for 15-20minutes(tiill poppadams are tender). The tamarind water should have reduced to at least 1/2 of its original volume.
In the mean time, toast(dry fry) the coriander seeds,red chilies, chana dal, fenugreek seeds to a golden brown color. Cool and grind to a fine powder. This powder is my version of the vathakozhambu powders sold in stores. I grind it fresh, but you can also sprinkle some store bought vathakozhambu powder if you want.
In a bowl, mix about 3 tbsp of water and rice flour into a thick paste. Add the ground powder to this paste and add these to the boiling kozhambu. Stir well to avoid any lumps.
Let it simmer for another 4-5 minutes. Switch off. Serve hot with rice and spicy potato stir fry or stuffed okras.

Wearing his red military uniform jacket, black trousers and the large black fur hat that the Danish queen's guards were proud to display, Capt. Jens Martin Christensen showed his skills with the queen's horses. He was an expert at this sort of thing. With a military stride, he guided Her Majesty's horses as they pulled the royal coach in the parade down the streets of Copenhagen. Each soldier's boots were as shiny as the sun, especially Christensen's. One known factor about Christensen was that he always wore polished boots in a parade or on the trek West.
Christensen, my great-great grandfather, was born to Christen Oveson and Kirsten Marie Andersen on April 29, 1843, in Hammerholt, Hormested, Hjorring, Denmark. He was the seventh of eight children in his family. (His story is recounted in the book "Erastus Snow Christensen, 1874-1943, A Family History" by Steve Mecham and Verda Christensen Murphy, Family History Library Film No. 142703, Item 2.)
Christensen first heard about the gospel of Jesus Christ in Copenhagen by missionaries of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and learned for himself that the church is true. He was baptized a member on Feb. 4, 1866, by Elder S. Petersen and confirmed by Elder Lars Larsson.
After he joined the church, Christensen boarded a three-mast ship called the Kenilworth. From New York up through the Great Lakes and down the Missouri River was the railroad trail he had taken. Why the huge detour? Immigrants from various countries were taken advantage of by agents who deliberately upped the price of a direct-route train ticket. Sale agents charged more than the normal fee for immigrants' tickets, so more out-of-the-way connections were taken to work around the problem.
Once arriving at the Port of New York, it was almost immediate when the Saints were moved by rail to Wyoming in Nebraska's Otoe County. Railroad tracks had been laid to North Platte, Neb., which was the end of line for the tracks. The city became the meeting place for the Mormon immigrants to prepare for the trek to Utah.
Maren Johanne Rasmussen, Christensen's wife-to-be, was sick from cholera and he was a volunteer who went among the sick. She was so sick that he had to carry her from place to place in his big, strong arms. He would sometimes place an umbrella over her to provide shade from the heat and sun.
Once the people in the wagon train began the trek to the valley of the Great Salt Lake, Christensen helped Rasmussen by occasionally getting her to walk a little. Day by day, she grew stronger and walked a little longer. They were finding their friendship was growing into a romance. Finally, she no longer needed to be carried and was able to walk the distance. Hand-in-hand, they discussed things of their past in their beloved Denmark as they walked. Finally over time, conversations changed as the courtship matured to things that lay ahead of them for the future of an eternal marriage and happy family. He kept his boots shiny throughout the trek across the plains.
The wagon train arrived in the valley on Oct. 22, 1866, and within one week, they were heading to Fairview, Utah, where they would build their first home. They were married by Bishop William Seeley on Oct. 28, 1866, at Mount Pleasant, Utah. On May 8, 1867, were sealed in the Endowment House in Salt Lake City. Later, they moved to Fountain Green, Utah. In 1878, church authorities asked them to relocate to the Manasseh-Ephraim area of Colorado, some 500 miles distant to the southeast.
After making the trek to Colorado, and establishing their home in the town of Manasseh, Colo., Christensen was called to serve a mission for the LDS Church in Denmark. He took with him a photograph of his bride and himself with the intent that he would call on his mother-in-law with hope for a reconciliation. His wife had been locked in an upstairs bedroom by her mother, but Rasmussen tied bedsheets together and escaped out a window for a train to Hamburg, Germany, to leave by ship to America.
While serving in Denmark, Christensen went to his mother-in-law's home. At first, she graciously accepted him, but he did not tell her he was her son-in-law. She even took a liking to him, mainly due to his knowledge of the Danish language. The conversation eventually moved to home and family. He brought out the picture. She immediately recognized her daughter and to his surprise and dismay, she proclaimed to him, "I have no daughter!" Christensen tried to affect forgiveness between them, but she refused. Politely he left the premises sorrowing, his hope for healing had vanished.
Returning home from his mission in April 1887 on the steamer called the Panther, Christensen found himself back at his farm in Colorado doing the typical chores he was used to. In two years' time, his health began to fail. Hoping to improve his lot, the couple moved to Murray, and on July 8, 1908, he succumbed at age 65.
We do not know what happened to his shiny boots, but they have left a great posterity of descendants.

I just figgured it was time for a new topic.
I can't think of anything too terribly interesting.
Hey! I've been learning how to play the drums! I'm not very good at keeping time with someone else yet, but I can play a few good beats. I've also found it to be a great stress reliever.
What do you say to that?

First World War in the Air Exhibition - 4th December 2014 - 31st December 2020
Eleven years after the first powered flight, aviation emerged as a force capable of changing the face of battle. In 1914 the Royal Flying Corps numbered just 1,500 people. By 1918, when the Royal Air Force was created, this had grown to more than 205,000. The full strategic value of air power had become all too evident - both on the battlefield and on the Home Front.
This compelling story of the First World War in the Air will be revealed in a new exhibition in our Claude Grahame-White Hangar, which will open to the public on 4 December 2014.
Discover the vital work of the Service men and women on the ground as well as the changing roles of those in the air as the essential use of 'eyes in the sky' for reconnaissance was complemented by the introduction of new technologies for bombing and fighting high above the ground.
Many personal artefacts including medals, letters and uniforms will be displayed alongside the finest collection of First World War aircraft bringing both moving and inspiring stories to life - and ensuring that the bravery and sacrifice of these aviation pioneers will never be forgotten.
There's also an extensive gift shop to purchase souvenirs of your day at one of the finest collections of the air force in England, as well as indoor and outdoor picnic areas and a licensed restaurant so you can make a day of it.

I've been using Rebtel to call my Family & friends in the Philippines since 2008 and I would say, for the past few years, I am a happy and satisfied customer. Recently, i emailed customer service for my complain about their services and to my surprise, they resolve the issue very quickly. Thank you, Rebtel, I am hoping for consistent and quality services from you guys as usual and for mishap and undesirable circumstances, thanks for pleasing us,your customer by your quick response in our email. Best of luck to all of us.
I recently purchase rebtel services to call India, on 5/12-28, it billed $10 every week they have some option to auto deduct money from your card once balance is less than $1 so it billed 4 times in a month before I noticed my credit card transaction, don't rely on this services and never save your credit card on their site, and customer services will never understand customer issue, biggest irony is this company is it provides calling services to world but they don't have customer service number where you can connect! Their customer service is so rude you cannot believe don't buy this product and be very careful about transaction. They are doing unethical business

There were a couple of guys around here that were riding a thin Liquid Force board based on a wakesurfer. Can' remember the name offhand, but I tried them. Nice enough in flat water, very heavy though, and did not like to turn in small waves.
I've been reading a bit and heard a number of good reviews on the Underground Kipuna, but have never seen one in person, let alone ridden one. I'm looking for something versatile, not a high rockered surfboard with lots of toe-in to go real slow on. I'd like to have a fun light ride for flat water and smaller chop, and worry about a wave machine later. I'm not looking for a super flat lightwind door though, either. I want to build it light, to mess around with small airs and popping it out of the water.
So, on the Kipuna, does anyone know what kind of rocker line it has? Also, that board is made pretty thin, with thicker rails and a full EVA deck. I like the idea of a thin board, but it seems to me that if you want to build a board with some flex, the thicker it is, the less glass it needs to get the same flex, and the more stress you might have if you tried to make a board with a bit of flex if it had thick rails. When the board flexes the thicker rails would be in a lot of compression on top, carrying a lot of the load.
Or a board like this, or even on a thicker surfboard, is it possible to build enough flex into the board to noticeably increase the rocker when loaded in the turn, or does board flex mostly just help to absorb shocks and soften the ride? Also, I'm not sure how to sort out the fins, since the fin boxes need some board thickness, and also would interfere with flex. Maybe this is where compromise starts to kick in....

Oregon was unable to make its brief lead last in the upset bid against No. 22 Cincinnati.
Cashmere Wright made five 3-pointers and scored 17 points to lead Cincinnati to a 77-66 win over Oregon in the championship game of the Global Sports Classic on Saturday.
The Bearcats (6-0) led by nine at the break but Oregon opened the second half with a 21-10 surge to move in front. Cincinnati then closed the game with a 25-12 stretch to secure the win.
"The key for us is we settled down and once we settled down we knocked down a few shots and got our confidence back," coach Mick Cronin said. "We scored 27 points from the time they took a two-point lead (because) we started executing offensively and had some guys make some big shots for us."
The Bearcats had four players score in double figures. Sean Kilpatrick and JaQuon Parker had 16 points apiece, and Titus Rubles scored 13.
One night after holding Iowa State to 37.3 percent shooting, the Bearcats held Oregon to 35.8 percent (19 of 53). Cincinnati wasn't much better, shooting 36.9 percent (24 of 65) from the floor, but made 11 of 24 3-point tries.
Carlos Emery led Oregon (5-1) with 15 points and nine rebounds. E.J. Singler added 11 points.
The Ducks held Cincinnati scoreless for 3½ minutes early in the second half, just long enough to cut into the Bearcats' lead and get back into the game. An 8-0 run got Oregon within two, and Johnathan Lloyd's 3-pointer at the 13:27 mark trimmed Cincinnati's advantage to 47-46.
The Bearcats responded with five straight points to go back up by six, but then had to endure another 3½-minute scoreless drought. Oregon took its first lead of the game when Dominic Artis stole the ball from Wright and fed Damyean Dotson for a fast-break layup that made it 54-52 with 7:40 left.
"Give Oregon credit for coming back," Cronin said. "We showed a lot of character. We keep it interesting, that's for sure. We've got veteran guys who can defend, and we got a lot of open shots off (our defensive) effort."
Cincinnati bounced back with an 11-0 run to grab control.
"My teammates were giving me confidence, they just kept patting me on the back after a bad first half," said Rubles, who scored nine points down the stretch to spark his team's late run. "I got into a rhythm. I know I can hit that shot on a regular basis."
The Bearcats went 8 for 14 from 3-point range in the first half and led 42-33 at the break. Wright scored 12 in the first half on four 3s, and Kilpatrick had 11 points at intermission.

So, he is about as legit as Dr. Phil….
That is my opinion….
His website is a great resource and he always gives good advise on his forums.
In his articles and interviews he shows clearly he knows what a destructive cult is.
Here's a quote from the Wiki page,
Presented criticism by Scientology and some religion scholars and people related to the Waco tragedy
If teh Sceintologists are critisizing him, then he must be doing something right.
Regarding Waco, I remember reading that the advise he gave the FBI was not acted upon, and if it had of been, there could well have been less loss of life.
I forget where I read it, I think on Rick's site. (Yeah I know quoting Rick on Rick probably wont influence his critics none.
I think I have a pretty good bullshit detector, and when I read his stuff, I feel he's on the level.
His website is a great resource, I don't think anyone can doubt that.

text: While you were out drinking as vampire Sarah Palins and slutty John McCains (research for this post conducted in 2008), musicians were celebrating Halloween in myriad ways their own: Phish covered Exile In Main Street in Indio; Titus Andronicus did an all-Weezer set while fending off security at the Vice 15 party in Williamsburg; Monsters Of Folk morphed into KISS; Pearl Jam dressed as Devo and covered "Whip It"; and doubtlessly countless more. Brooklyn's Dirty Projectors celebrated pumpkin day in Los Angeles with some silly headgear — Longstreth in 10 gallon hat, Nat Baldwin in bozo wig, Angel in some cloth chainmail type thing — but the DPs costume honors go to Amber Coffman who showed them up in Stevie Nicks regalia. The band played the Jensen RecCenter with openers Little Wings, and just today announced a return to Los Angeles to co-headline the Walt Disney Concert Hall with the Los Angeles Philharmonic, who will play selections chosen by Dave before the DPs do a set of their own. That isn't until February 27th (although tix are on sale 11/14/09); until then, have a pass through Andrew Youssef's shots.

I get a lot of questions from parents about whether it's wise to allow children to have a social networking account. I completely understand their concern. We constantly see stories in the news about bullying, privacy flaws, pedophiles, and stalkers associated with social media. However, social networking is here to stay. It's an inherent part of the millennial generation's culture and communication. According to Pew Research, 73% of American teens now use social networking sites (up from 55% in 2006).
We teach children from a very young age social etiquette: say "please", "thank you"; as well as societal safety: "don't talk to strangers", "look both ways before crossing the street." For the same reason, we also need to teach children how to use social media responsibly and safely. However, parents shouldn't just have a brief discussion with children about the dangers in social networking, let them set up an account, and walk away. I liken it to teaching a child how to drive a car. You wouldn't let your child drive your car on the highway without supervision after a short talk about driving. There's a reason young drivers need permits and a probationary period of supervision behind the wheel before they get the freedom of a driver's license. There are many times while driving that the student needs to use judgment to figure out how to avoid danger, and it isn't always black and white.
The same can be said of social networking. Many parents believe viewing a child's social media account as a violation of privacy. In a previous post, Social Media Privacy is an Oxymoron, I discussed the fact that any information posted online has the potential to become public. The "information superhighway" is fast, filled with potholes, and can be dangerous if used negligently. We need to teach children how to use social networking responsibly. Consider it Driver's Ed for Social Media. Here are three steps to teaching your child how to navigate social networking.
Instruction. The first thing to teach a child about social media is that anything posted online may become public. Talk to your children about the dangers of sharing too much information and to use discretion when posting pictures or writing anything. Discuss "Personal Brand" (an often used term in social media referring to how someone is perceived by others). Parents, college admissions directors, human resource managers, school administrators, and police all monitor social networking accounts. Let children know that anything they write, whether a "private message", inbox, chat or direct message, can be printed or copied, pasted and shared with others. If they wouldn't say it in front of an auditorium full of their classmates, teachers or parents, they shouldn't write it. Decide which type of social network would be best for your child. This largely depends upon what is popular among their personal social circle and the child's age.
The Learner's Permit: Create your child's account with him. Together, walk through the privacy policy and settings. The best way to supervise and teach your child how to appropriately use social networking will largely depend upon the child's age and maturity. Obviously, younger users will need more guidance and supervision. Depending on you and your child's comfort level, there are two effective ways to monitor social networking use during this period. The first is to explain to him that for a while, you need to always have the password, and may log on at any time to check his page. The second is to agree to let the child set his own password, but he will need to open and show it to you at any time. Most children will be so happy to have an account, they will readily agree to your terms. If they balk at this, explain that if they are posting anything you shouldn't see, then it shouldn't be shared on an online social networking site. (A third alternative many parents use is to connect with or "friend" the child's account through their own social account. In my opinion, this is the least effective for new users as privacy settings can allow information to be filtered, which defeats the purpose as a learning tool).
Children and teens will make mistakes. They will post something you would consider inappropriate. They will "friend" someone they don't know. They will share "TMI" ("too much information" for you SMS acronym-challenged folks). This is all part of the learning process and has less potential to escalate into something embarrassing or dangerous if first experienced under a parent's guidance. Over time, you will notice your child using more discretion and will feel comfortable with less monitoring. At that point, let your child change the password and/or lessen the frequency of periodic checks.
One warning: As parents, it is often easy to get too involved out of concern. Parents need to respect a child's relationships. We have all seen "helicopter parents": the parents who hover and direct their child's social circle, interfere with athletics, academics, etc. Don't abuse this opportunity. Never post on your child's site and, unless a dangerous situation arises, don't get involved with your child's friends' accounts. Use information you may see about friends as learning tools for discussion with your child. This shouldn't be used as a way to "spy" on your child and his/her friends, but to teach your child how to make good choices and use social media responsibly. If you see something inappropriate, use it as an opportunity to discuss it with your child. Very often children will take it upon themselves to talk to a friend about private issues of concern.
Getting A License: You can't and shouldn't monitor a child's social networking site forever. When this freedom should come is different for everyone. At some point you will feel comfortable that your child understands and is using social networking safely and responsibly. I have seen many instances when the child voluntarily starts connecting with parents and other relatives within the social network. Many young adults have said that they use social networks to stay in touch with family while at college. And many teens find it a great way to "self-monitor" (no one wants Grandma to read something embarrassing!).
This is a technology-driven generation and social media is a critical part of our personal and business culture. Eventually, your child will engage in it with or without your guidance and/or permission. Teaching children how to use it effectively and responsibly early on is essential.

GLUED is a short film released earlier this year by a team of students at Bezalel Academy of the Arts. It's all about the problems a mother faces trying to deal with her young son, who is so addicted to video games it's insane.
The film, which took 10 months to create, was the first thing the four stduents had ever done in CG. Which is pretty damn impressive.
You can see how the short was made at its site, below.

The Gospels tell of the anawim, a group of poor people constituted by the humble of heart who know that all that they have, all that they are comes from God.
The model of the humble comes from the Psalmist who raises his prayer to God because there is no one else to whom he can turn: "The agreeable offering to God is a broken heart" (Ps 51:19). Still another passage reads, "The Lord heals those who have a broken heart (Ps 147:3). Then we ask why God would cure broken hearts if they were pleasing to Him? God responds that the one whom God loves is a man whose heart is broken but whose spirit is grace-filled; a man capable of bending his knees to learn how to stand upright before concluding that "Before God nothing is more perfect than a broken heart."
Sophonias the prophet makes himself a poor man before God as a model of spirituality when he puts in the mouth of God the following promise: "I will leave in the midst of you a humble and weak people who will take refuge in the name of the Lord" (Zep 3:12). It is this understanding of poverty that Jesus is speaking about when He says in the first Beatitude: "Blessed are the poor of heart who have the heart of a poor man, for theirs is the kingdom of God" (Mt 5:3).
Thus in the Bible there are two classes (as it were) of poor people: the indigent and the oppressed whose poverty is material on the one hand, and others who are humble of heart who have an interior poverty, who receive everything from God. In the Bible, God cares for these two categories of poor people but in a different way. He combats poverty which is misery even while He honors and loves interior poverty.
Misery is condemned because it crushes man and reduces him to degradation. It is in the name of this principle that it is said of the primitive Christians described in Acts 4:34, "There were no indigent among them." If there are no indigent in the Church, there are those who compose the Church, namely, those who know that before God, they are only beggars of grace. They are the poor in spirit, the anawim, who expect everything from God. Both categories of poverty are clearly biblical. One is to be combated, the other revered.
In the Gospel of Luke 18:18-23 there appears a young nobleman who practiced the law with care but was very rich who is loved by Jesus. Jesus tells him clearly what is lacking in him: sell all that you have, give it to the poor and come follow me. The young man becomes saddened, walks away because he was very rich. He preferred his riches to following Jesus. Jesus gives this judgment: "It is easier for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of God."
Jesus' audience understands this very well: "Who then can be saved?" they ask. Jesus replies, "What is impossible for man is possible for God." We must read this passage to the very end. In the text Jesus responds to Peter that those who have abandoned home and family for Christ will receive "in the world to come, eternal life." And immediately after, when Jesus announces for the third time His passion, His disciples "did not understand what he was saying." How could they, given their view of Messiah?
We must read this passage carefully because in the final analysis there is only one man who is truly poor. It is the one who is deprived of everything, who abandoned everything — his equality with God who emptied himself (Phil 2:7), who became a servant even unto death, the death on a cross, Jesus Christ. Out of love, there is gone everything He had including His life. "Being rich, He made himself poor so that by His poverty you may become rich" (2 Cor 8:9).
The poor man, who has nothing of his own, can only live with the help of others from whom he asks aid (i.e., the name of Lazarus El' Azar, Eleazar = God, come in aid because the word ecor means help). Jesus chooses the place of extreme dispossession, the death of a criminal on a cross, which scandalizes the disciples even to this day. He quits this life, gives His life between two types of poor people, poor people whom no one could love, dirty, bestial and evil. He chooses to be there, begging only for a little vinegar. That is the price of love — completely disposed of everything but Himself. He gives all He has and asks for us in return.
Doing this for us, He asks our help, all of us, His friends. The poverty of God is that He has need of us, which is utterly incomprehensible. That is why He gave everything He had — His time, His affection, His life, His death. And He prepares a place for us with Him because He is Emmanuel, God with us. If Christ is all poverty it is because He is entirely gift, it is that He does not wait to become rich to give. He gave everything He had including what was due Him as divine in order to become like us in all things but sin. He became poor so we could become spiritually rich. Because He needs us, we can become "other Christs."
The whole history of Jesus — His incarnation, His life, His crucifixion and resurrection — is only a great cry of God to men: "Come to me." If Christ has taken the place of poor Lazarus, He goes beyond that to all these events that the Gospel narrates. How so?
It is up to us now to take care of God, taking His place in our lives for others. We are alter Christs, other Christs, who inhabit us after the resurrection so that through our actions of goodness and love, we give to and for others that which become the goodness and love of Christ himself. It is the poverty of God, of Christ, who needs us to be himself to others.
"As long as you did it to one of these the least of my brothers, you have done it to me" (Mt 25). For those of us who are utterly poor, who have received everything from God and are utterly dependent on God, now the tables are reversed; Christ, the one who empties himself and is utterly poor, needs to be himself for others in us and through us.
We must empty ourselves to be filled with Christ so that we can bring others to Christ. We are ambassadors of Christ in and to the world. God needs us.

Babyidea Wool Longies are a natural alternative to plastic or PUL nappy covers. Merino wool allows moisture to evaporate, reducing dampness, and aids the maintenance of optimal skin temperature. Lanolinising makes wool both water resistant and self-cleaning. Not even advanced modern technology can replicate the comfort, durability, softness and security that wool offers.
Merino rib Longies are flexible, allowing your child to be mobile, and giving a great fit. Not to mention they're very very cute!
Wool Shorties & Longies don't need to be washed after every use. Wool cleans itself; frequent airing of damp pants outside in fresh air will do. The reliability will improve over time. Wool is meant to be loved and often used. The Shorties & Longies are available in sizes S, M, L and XL.
Babyidea Wool Shorties & Longies are carefully designed in Finland. They are made of two layers of soft merino wool rib of high quality, which has been knitted especially for us. Our Shorties & Longies are cut quite high to provide a long time of use, and a good fit for different types of inner nappies. All seams are sewn flat and the ribs have good stretch, which makes dressing easier. With Shorties & Longies you don't need any other trousers.
100% merino wool, fabric made especially for Babyidea.
"Wool's structure produces an elegant combination of water repellence,
breathability and moisture absorbency." -M. Pehkonen

Like a lot of Americans, Amalie Drury has grown very attached to her smartphone.
The 33-year-old Chicago writer checks the device multiple times a day for Facebook updates and email messages. She brings it into the bathroom when she brushes her teeth. And she often totes it to bed, "just to check email one more time and play a few more rounds of Words With Friends."
If Drury wakes up in the middle of the night, she reaches for her phone again. "My first thought is to pick up the iPhone to see what's happening in the news," she said. "I'll ... sometimes read long features and not really be able to go back to sleep."

Rox Sneak Past Alexandria Saturday Night
The St. Cloud Rox topped the Alexandria Blue Anchors 4-3 Saturday night at Joe Faber Field. The Rox are now 13-8 on the season, 4.5 games out of first place with 14 games left in the season.
On Friday in Alexandria, St. Cloud erased an 8-0 deficit but ultimately fell 10-9. This time, the Rox watched a 2-0 lead evaporate before pulling through for the comeback win.
After St. Cloud starter Lucas Long set the Anchors down in order in the top of the first, the Rox used three walks, a single and a sac fly to take a 2-0 lead.
Alexandria scored single runs in the second, third and fourth innings to overtake St. Cloud by a 3-2 score, but the Rox answered back with a run in the bottom of the inning to tie the game at three.
In that fourth inning, Dustin Breashears lead off for the Rox with a walk and was eventually brought home with a Clay Williamson single to tie the game.
In the sixth, Eric Loxtercamp went to the opposite field with an outside pitch and tripled into the right field corner with one out. With the Alexandria infield drawn in, Rox third baseman Blake Headley singled up the middle to score Loxtercamp and tie the game.
St. Cloud will now travel to Wisconsin Rapids for interleague play. They will take on the Rafters Sunday, have Monday off, then play at Wisconsin Rapids again on Tuesday night.

There's nothing wrong with having fun while you're fishing and getting a chance to make some money for doing it.
That simple plan eight years ago gave rise to the Bass Pro Shops Crappie Masters AllAmerican Tournament Trail. In that time, anglers from all across the United States have won hundreds of thousands of dollars and countless prizes. The birth of Crappie Masters also helped introduce competitive fishing to a new audience.
This week, Crappie Masters will bring its national championship to Columbus and the Tennessee Tombigbee Waterway. The two-day fishing competition is set to begin Friday at the Columbus Marina.
Paul Alpers, president of the Crappie Masters AllAmerican Tournament Trail, said the organization was a huge success when it started eight years with one tournament. Since then, it has survived the ups and downs of the economy to give anglers of all ages and sexes an opportunity to be a part of a competitive exercise and enjoy the outdoors. He feels the Columbus area will offer competitors a competitive environment.
"Columbus and the Tennessee-Tombigbee puts everybody on an even keel," Alpers said. "Everybody has a chance to win the national championship. The hosts there with the tourism there in Columbus have been great. They know what fishing means to the area and what it brings to the economy. The anglers will have all of the amenities they need. You can walk almost anywhere and get a meal that you want from the hotel. ... There are plenty of hotels and places to go and to see so people can enjoy the whole area in Mississippi."
Alpers, who is one of two full-time employees on the trail with Brown, said the first tournament had 132 boats (a team of two) from 16 states. This week, he expects 260-275 anglers from about 21 states.
The first-place team will win two fully rigged Tracker Marine Nitro Z7 boats with 150 horsepower Mercury Motors. Approximately $150,000 in cash and prizes will be awarded to competitors.
In addition to the payouts to the anglers, Alpers said Columbus will benefit from all of the family members and fans who come to the city to be a part of the event.
"Most of the guys are going to be there for eight or nine days, so we're excited about that and think they're going to spend a lot of money in Columbus," Alpers said. "So far everything has been working out great."
Fans will have a chance to meet the anglers and to see their equipment from 6-8 p.m. Tuesday in the parking lot of the Columbus Convention and Visitors Bureau. The anglers' boats also will be on display.
Alpers admits the economy has impacted tournament fishing. He said the cost of gas, which ranges from $3.30 to $3.60 in the region, has made it difficult for anglers to travel from state to state and to keep their boats in the water.
"We have been very fortunate," Alpers said. "We're averaging around 60 teams per state coming from 10-12 states."
But Bobby Brown, who is vice president of Bass Pro Shops Crappie Masters, said things have leveled off and that the AllAmerican Tournament Trail, which is one of only two national trails, is doing well.
"We love the (Columbus) area," Brown said. "You have all the resources there to handle a national championship. The lake area is well known and it is in a central location."
Alpers believes anglers will catch crappie in the 1 1/4- to 1 1/2-pound range. He said the winning total likely will be in the 14-pound range depending on the size of the "kicker", or bigger fish, the anglers land.
Alpers said Crappie Masters hopes to continue to grow. Next year, the national championship will be in Grenada. Alpers said teams of anglers will be allowed to take a child who is 15 years old or younger with them at no cost. He said the goal is to get children and teenagers involved in a sport that brings together husbands and wives and people of all walks of life.
In addition to the anglers who will compete for cash and prizes, Brown said six teenagers will compete for a chance to earn a youth scholarship. He said $4,000 scholarships will be available for anglers ages 10-12 and 13-15.
"I think it is going to run real smooth," Brown said. "So far everything looks good. I think it is going to be an excellent championship."
The weigh-ins for the national championship will be at 3:30 p.m. Friday and at 3 p.m. Saturday at the Columbus Marina. They will be free and open to the public. Alpers said some vendors and sponsors will have equipment available to examine. He said the registration and the vendor and sponsor exhibition that will take place from noon to 3 p.m. at the Trotter Convention Center is solely for competitors. There also will be a welcome banquet at 6 p.m. Wednesday at the Trotter.
According to its website, the goal of Bass Pro Shops Crappie Masters is provide a professional crappie fishing trail for crappie anglers, to provide a crappie trail that grass roots anglers and families can enjoy and compete for great prizes. Its goal is to promote, enhance, and preserve our outdoor heritage and specifically crappie fishing.

Posts Tagged 'Sir Francis Drake'
The Conundrum of Sir Francis Drake
If I were to choose a single man in history to hold responsible for today's fascination and glorification of pirates (The literal and the general term), I would choose Sir Francis Drake. Born in 1544, Francis Drake was the eldest of a dozen children. Francis' connection to the British navy, and the sea in general, was caused by his father's line of work as a minster to the navy men. Francis was stationed on a ship as a young man. He went on trading missions when he was 12 as an apprentice member of the crew. for the ship master. Francis Drake performed his duties so well that when the captain of the ship died, Francis inherited the ship when he was only 20 years old.
Francis Drake's hatred of Spaniards is rumored to have began when he was sailing his ship in the fleet of one of his relatives, Sir John Hawkins. They were sailing from the New World, when they were suddenly set upon by Spaniards. They were trapped in the port, and the both of them are said to have barely escaped with their lives. If this is the starting point of the lifelong term of vengeance that Francis Drake led against the Spaniards, than presumably it is also the start of today's infatuation with the term "pirate".
In 1572, he began raiding the Spanish Main. His mission? To pillage and plunder. He was relentless, and gave no thought to his own safety. One of his best victories came when he allied himself with Guillaume Le Testu, a French Pirate. They raided a mule train, and they were extremely successful. They dragged as much of the silver and gold as they could, but their boats were no longer where they landed them. Francis Drake was able to rally his men, and build a small raft with enough room for himself and 2 others. The journey was rough and they barely made it back to their ship, but once on board, he showed his men a necklace made of Spanish gold to show that it was a success. They buried the rest of the 20 tons of silver and gold further up the beach, because they didn't have the men to take it all with them.
It is after this incident that he caught the attention of Queen Elizabeth I in England. She sent them on a campaign against the Spanish. After a great trials, the execution of a mutineer, and the subsequent sacking of many Spanish Ports. Drake was hailed as the first Englishman to circumnavigate the Earth, and the share of riches he brought back to Queen Elizabeth was enough to surpass all of the crown's income for that entire year. He was hailed as a hero, knighted, and became Sir Francis Drake.
Later, when war broke out between the Spanish armada and the English Navy, he command the English fleet as Vice Admiral. Using the cover of night, he organized fire-ships against the Spaniards. In all honesty, that was the end of the battle. The Spanish fleet was in total disarray, utterly and soundly defeated.
In his 50s, he lost many a skirmish against Spanish-America. By the time Sir Francis Drake died, he had made himself a literal, and figurative legend. Before he died, he asked to be dressed in his armor before they put him in his coffin. Even in his final hours, he was still the leader that made history.
He was not a fool though, he was quite clever in outwitting the Spaniards. I have to wonder if maybe he knew what he was doing. Perhaps he knew that he was setting a standard for a new idea. It is impossible to say.
It was said that Sir Francis Drake was a man of great charisma and confidence. His bold attitude when it came to the Spaniards is a large part of being a "pirate" today. The term pirate is practically celebrated. The term embodies bold resistance and great charisma. It encourages those who it names.
When someone "pirates" something over the internet, I can see the reason behind it. I believe the terms used to refer to some modern day hackers is the very thing that encourages them more. You call someone a pirate because they pass software to others illegally. Such a term is not derogatory to them. It is a great compliment, and a dare to do even greater feats of boldness.
I would never be a pirate in this day and age. However, I know that If I lived in those days, I have little doubt that I would have been a pirate. Sailing the seven seas with Sir Francis Drake and his stout crew of English men. Nothing would give me more pleasure. What about you?

A New Year's Resolution
Pastor Steve Ellison
A new year has dawned; it's time for setting goals and making resolutions. It is time for taking stock of our spiritual progress, our walk with Christ. Do we know Him, or do we simply know about Him? Are we moving forward with Him, or are we stuck in a performance trap? Are we walking with Him, or are we simply taking a stroll? If we are not progressing in the Christian life, perhaps we need to make some changes. Matthew 13 records a series of parables in which Jesus described the kingdom of heaven. At the end of this series of parables, Jesus shifted His focus from the kingdom of heaven to the disciple of the kingdom of heaven. Matthew 13:51-52 calls on Christians to make a fundamental change, "Have you understood all these things?" They said to Him, "Yes." And Jesus said to them, "Therefore every scribe who has become a disciple of the kingdom of heaven is like a head of a household, who brings out of his treasure things new and old." (NASU) Jesus pointed out that anyone who followed Him needed some basic knowledge and would be required to make a fundamental change in his life. In verses 51 and 52, Christ was summing up the teachings of the Kingdom of Heaven parables. That knowledge was indeed a treasure. Everyone who follows Jesus should have acquired this knowledge, this treasure. In other words, each Christian must be a scribe, one who studies the Law to discover truth, one who preserves and protects the truth. The Biblical scribe is a marvelous example of how a Christian should engage Biblical truth. A scribe will store up this kind of treasure in his mind and in his soul.
Jesus added that the scribe should become a "disciple of the kingdom". That is a fundamental change. At this point in history, many of the scribes had lost their way. They were not dispensing life giving truth, but were rather passing on dead traditions of men which added burdens to the people. Disciples of the kingdom will not just "know truth", they will "do truth". Disciples of the kingdom will apply truth. They will apply it to their own lives which will in turn inject it and invest it in the lives of others. Christians are called to be disciples and disciple makers all at the same time. This treasure that has been entrusted to the scribe (Christian) must be put to work so that it will produce dividends in the lives of others. This is how one becomes a disciple like a head of a household providing for family members. Also, note that the new revelations given by Christ will not contradict the old revelations because they come from the same storehouse of treasure which is found in the Bible. The new revelations will complement not replace the old revelations.
A new calendar year has dawned. Our thoughts turn to improving ourselves, making changes for the better. Matthew 13:51-52 raises some questions. As a believer, have you done the good work of a scribe? Have you stored up a treasure of Biblical truth in your mind and in your soul? Biblical illiteracy is a rampant problem in the 21st century church. If you have not succumbed to the pull of so many competing distractions, and have done the work of a scribe by storing up a treasure of Biblical knowledge, you are among the minority. Have you moved on to the next step? Are you becoming a disciple, like a head of a household, applying truth to your life and thus dispensing this life-giving balm to those with whom you have influence?

For previously issued drought statements see the archived status reports.
The S.C. Department of Natural Resources convened the S.C. Drought Response Committee on September 16, 2008 in Greenville and nine Upstate counties remain in extreme drought. Ten counties were downgraded or maintained at severe and three remain at moderate status. Thirteen counties were downgraded to incipient status. Recent rains prompted the Drought Response Committee to remove the drought declaration for ten counties: Marion, Dillon, Marlboro, Florence, Horry, Williamsburg, Berkeley, Dorchester and Colleton. The drought declaration was removed for Georgetown and Charleston during the August meeting.
The counties remaining in the extreme category are: Oconee, Pickens, Greenville, Spartanburg, Anderson, Abbeville, Laurens, Greenwood and McCormick counties. For more information about drought and to see a drought status by county map, visit the Office of State Climatology Drought Website at: www.dnr.sc.gov/climate/sco/Drought/drought_current_info.php.
David Tompkins with the S.C. Department of Agriculture reported, "The impact of the drought on agriculture continues for parts of the state with significant concern over hay availability for our cattle industry."
The S.C. Forestry Commission cited a 9.55% increase in wildfires for July/August and a 66.4% increase in the number of acres burned compared to the five-year average. The Commission expects to have an active fall fire season.
Stan Simpson, US Army Corps of Engineers, provided a review of the Corps' operation of the Savannah River lakes in response to the drought explaining that Lakes Hartwell and Thurmond is expected to reach new record lows over the next 10 weeks.
Andy Wachob, DNR Hydrologist, reported all lakes around the state are below their target level except Lake Murray. He noted Jocassee, Hartwell and Thurmond lakes were the hardest hit by drought. He also spoke about the steady decline in most Upstate groundwater wells with a well in Spartanburg at a record low and a well in Oconee County near record low.
According to Mizzell, "We are entering the driest months climatologically, October-November, and without rainfall from tropical systems, rainfall amounts during these months can be very low."
Steve de Kozlowski, S.C. Department of Natural Resources (DNR) Land, Water, and Conservation Division Interim Deputy Director, stated, "Upstate water systems can ensure they maintain adequate supplies through rigorous conservation efforts."
DNR protects and manages South Carolina's natural resources by making wise and balanced decisions for the benefit of the state's natural resources and its people.

I call this dish curry and not chole as it is typically called in India because I made it differently from the way we make our CHOLE...Almost all the ingredients are similar the only difference being that the onion and tomatoes are chopped coarsely and we do not cook them so much that they form into a thick gravy .
The consistency is a bit watery .
Here is the recipe for you...
11/2 Cup chickpeas or chole
1 small packet mushrooms cut into quarters
2 medium sized onions coarsely chopped
2 med sized tomatoes coarsely chopped
½ tsp haldi powder
1 tsp chili powder
½ tsp dhania-jeera powder
1 tsp chili powder
½ tsp dhania-jeera powder
finely chopped coriander leaves for garnish
Oil and salt to taste
Oil and salt to taste
Soak chickpeas for 8 hours before cooking.
Cook the chick peas in a pressure cooker till soft and tender.
In a pan take some oil and fry the sliced onions till soft .
