Original recipe yields 6 to 8 servings
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Spray a quiche dish with non-stick cooking spray.
- Line the quiche dish with puff pastry, press the pastry firmly in place and trim away any excess pastry. Blind bake for 10 minutes.

- In a large skillet, saute the onion with butter or margarine to taste. Saute until the onions are soft and transparent.
- In a medium-size mixing bowl, beat eggs. Stir in the cottage cheese, spinach, and 1/2 cup of cheese. Season with salt and pepper. Arrange onions along the bottom of the pastry-lined quiche dish. Arrange the tomatoes over the onions. Pour the egg-mixture over the onions and tomatoes, and top entire concoction with the remaining cheese.
- Bake at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) for 45 to 50 minutes, or until the quiche has set in the middle. Serve hot or cold, your choice!

This is a fabulous recipe!!!! I made it using filo pastry instead of puff pastry. I sprayed a 10" quiche dish with olive oil then lined it with 3-4 sheets of filo. I sprayed on more olive oil (brushing it on) and applied another 3 layers or so of filo. I sprayed the filo again and turned the ends of filo that hung over the dish into the dish. I checked one last time to ensure that the last layer was lightly sprayed everywhere (top and sides) and baked it at 400 F for 10 minutes. I also used one package of frozen spinach which I thawed by putting in the skillet with 4 T of water. I cooked it over medium heat only until it was thawed to not destroy the nutrients. I then put the spinach in a sieve to drain pressing down lightly to extract as much water as possible. I didn't puree it. I just added it with the nutmeg to the egg mixture. I used 1% cottage cheese which I also drained (somewhat) in a sieve. I sauteed the onions in olive oil instead of butter. One large tomato thinly sliced will yield one layer over the onions--that's what I used. The rest I did according to the recipe. It looked great, was very quick to make and boy, did it go over well with both my vegetarian and non-vegetarian guests!! This recipe will become the family favorite!!! Many thanks, Diane.
This is really called "Prisnajac", it is from Italy, and normaly does not use the puff pastery, but the add off the crust makes it VERY nice...For people looking for a low carb style, I go with 4 eggs, 1 pound, cottage cheese, 1/2 stick butter, 1 pkg frozen spinach and 1 log of Crackle Barrel Yellow Cheddar, Defrost the spinach, and squeeze dry!!!, chop up, cup up cheese in chunks, mix everything together, season with salt, pepper, garlic, onion powder, nutmeg....but I DONT add any Whole onions or tomatoes, dump everything into a oiled with oilve oiled 8x8 pan and bake for 1 hour till set... Yummy
Very tasty. I used a package of frozen chopped spinach, three eggs and 3/4 cup cottage cheese. Used only 1 sheet puff pastry and made a 9" pie. Never thought of using puff pastry for a crust. I make quiches often and now have a quick solution when I'm too busy to make pie crust.

By Bill Bradberry
Niagara Gazette
Niagara Gazette — For many Christmas is over once their gifts are opened; for some, it's just the beginning.
Of course, traditions vary from family to family, culture to culture, religion to religion; some exchange gifts on Christmas Eve, some celebrate for days, some don't acknowledge or celebrate Christmas at all, some can't afford to participate in the tradition while others tend to completely overdo it.
But just about everyone, regardless of culture, religion or tradition can catch "the Christmas Spirit."
Ok, so without pontificating, here's my take, as inspired by my mother, many years ago on the question; Just what is the "Christmas Spirit"?
It's the spirit of graciously giving, and receiving; it has little to do with material things except as expressions of actual appreciation.
Corny as it sounds, Christmas is about love, peace and understanding.
But you could not convince me of that when I was a kid; to me and my siblings, Christmas was all about the toys.
When we awoke from our shallow sleep one Christmas morning more than 50 years ago, a scale model train was chugging around the base of the Christmas tree barely missing the Easy-Bake Oven that Santa (aka Mom and Dad) had carefully staged for me and my sisters to discover while they slept-in, no doubt exhausted from a late night of back breaking Elf work.
Lined up near the front door, a row of bicycles and tricycles, each equipped with shinny bells and squeeze-horns; their distinctive, if not annoying sounds triggered every time one of us stumbled through the rubble of Christmas stocking goodies and shredded wrapping paper to honk a horn and ding the bells adding to the shrill cacophony of a joyous children's pre-dawn Christmas morning.
Sleepy eyed, tired and weary, having only moments earlier laid down their heads to rest after a Christmas Eve that included Midnight Mass with the family, Mom and Dad emerged from their room to sit and watch the fruits of their labor.
By 1958 the words and music to the Christmas song "Little Drummer Boy" composed by Katherine K. Davis, Henry Onorati and Harry Simeone began to reinforce Mom's message in a way that we could comprehend and relate to; the words were certainly easy enough, especially the repetitive the "pa rum pum pum pum" that followed every stanza:
"Come they told me
A new born King to see
Our finest gifts we bring
To lay before the King
So to honor Him
When we come.
Little Baby
I am a poor boy too,
I have no gift to bring,
That's fit to give the King,
Shall I play for you
On my drum?
Mary nodded,
The ox and lamb kept time,
I played my drum for Him
I played my best for Him
Then He smiled at me
Me and my drum."
That image of a poor boy with nothing more to give than his talent, buoyed by the mesmerizing lyrics, struck a chord, and has ever since, stuck in my mind establishing a lifetime reminder that it is not just the material value of the gift; it is the gesture of giving and the ability to accept the gesture, more than the gift itself that matters.
That is the Spirit.
And so, as this year, freshly filled with pain and recent sorrow passes, let us all be filled with the Spirit and give and receive the gift of comfort when and where it is so desperately needed, not only at Christmas time, but all year round.
Amen?Contact Bill at email@example.com

In Roman Catholics and Evangelicals: Agreements and Differences, Norman Geisler and Ralph MacKenzie explore the spiritual, moral, and theological issues around which evangelicals and Catholics find common ground, and on which they differ.
This thoroughly-researched content presents a systematic approach to the doctrinal issues of revelation, God, human beings, Christ, salvation, the Church, ethics, and the apocalypse. Throughout, the authors draw out the sources of historic Christian orthodoxy as found in thinkers like Augustine, Thomas Aquinas, and others. This retrieval of the tradition allows them not only to find lines of doctrinal convergence between evangelicals and Catholics, but also, in effect, demonstrates that evangelical orthodoxy is dependent upon the historic Catholic tradition.
Differences on doctrines such as the Apocrypha, Scripture, infallibility, justification, sacramentalism, various aspects of the nature of the Church (visibility, unity, priestly authority, constituency), Mariology, and purgatory are by no means minimized. The approach is to clearly set out and compare doctrinal content from the most accurate source material, ancient and current.
With In Roman Catholics and Evangelicals: Agreements and Differences, you get a lot more than a volume designed to refute Catholicism.
One of the book's online reviewers states, "In general, other books written in opposition to Catholicism lack scholarship, as if the authors don't want their readers to check the sources, but rather just accept what they've presented as fact (oftentimes fabricated out of thin air). Further, some authors show no interest in presenting the Catholic defense of a given doctrine. Geisler and MacKenzie go out of their way to footnote everything, present facts fairly, and make a genuine effort to initiate REAL discussion about the issues, and that is something that is greatly needed. Readers who are truly interested can easily identify and consult the source documents in their own time."

Pneumatic signaling still wheezes?
Are instrumentation transmitters that use 3-15 psi analog signals still around?
Dear Control Engineering: I was reading the article about using smart instrumentation, and it discusses some of the history of field devices, back when everything ran on pneumatic systems. Are pneumatic analog devices still around?
Pneumatic devices have been gone for the most part for quite a while, with the majority replaced by the 1980s. Of course their demise was not all in one fell swoop. The move to electronic analog and digital devices took some time and is probably still not entirely complete. Process instrumentation and control devices like valves, that operate on 3-15 psi are certainly still around, but you will have to hunt for them.
After a few minutes digging around the industrial listings on eBay, I managed to find an old Foxboro liquid level transmitter 13FA1-HK31A5 sold by a company called National Recycling. That should tell you something.
There are companies that still sell new 3-15 psi transmitters, but these are rare too. Here's a company in Italy that still offers a small selection. There are certainly others if you care to look more thoroughly. More often than not, the pneumatic devices available now are converters that change pneumatic to electronic. Here's one that changes a Foundation fieldbus signal to pneumatic for a control valve.
Suffice it to say, small delicate mechanisms with diaphragms and leak-prone tubing were not exactly maintenance friendly, so I doubt very many people were sad over the change to electronics. As the article points out, compressed air signals can't convey much information. An air signal line is good for one signal and that's it. No diagnostic data, no secondary variables, it's pretty dumb.
Granted there are still folks out there that want to see trains pulled by steam locomotives, cars with carburetors, and their newspapers set on Linotypes, but the romance of such things gets eclipsed quickly when one has to deal with how maintenance intensive those older technologies are.
If you still use pneumatics and are proud of it, let us know.

Annual Salary Survey
Participate in the 2013 Salary Survey
In a year when manufacturing continued to lead the economic rebound, it makes sense that plant manager bonuses rebounded. Plant Engineering's annual Salary Survey shows both wages and bonuses rose in 2012 after a retreat the year before.
Average salary across all job titles for plant floor management rose 3.5% to $95,446, and bonus compensation jumped to $15,162, a 4.2% increase from the 2010 level and double the 2011 total, which showed a sharp drop in bonus.

PERRIN – What a wonderful surprise at lunch time Sunday. It was the regular First Sunday Fellowship dinner at the Perrin Church of Christ.
I still didn't feel like going because my legs are so shaky, so I put it off another week. Have a cough also and don't need any more illnesses to happen to me.
After they ate at the church, they gathered a big collection of the food, and what a feast. One big dish of desserts and one of big platter of the other food. I began on the sweets and all so good. Elton and Louise Short brought the food and we did appreciate everything. Had plenty for supper, also.
Last week my brother-in-law, Claude Renfro, of Weatherford received a pacemaker in a Fort Worth hospital. He had been there two or three days as they kept an eye on him. His heart was out of rhythm and the doctors said it needed a pacemaker. He is doing real well, came home a couple of days ago. He has sons and grandsons staying with him helping him out.
Bernice Farmer, who had quadruple bypass surgery a couple of weeks ago, is now at home recuperating. She is anxious to get back to working around the house and it's been reported that Tobe, her husband, has to make her take it easy. She's still not to lift anything very heavy or stoop over.
Sandra Claybourn had to go back to her doctor last week and he cut out an infection around the stitches in her back. She is doing better and is at home and working with the physical therapists.
The December Angel Food box order will be delivered on Saturday, Dec. 19, from 8:30-9:30 a.m. at the church's fellowship room. The January menu will soon be up at several of the businesses in town. You may order online at the Angel Food Ministries Web site or mail your order indicating which boxes you wish. Make the check out to the Perrin Church of Christ and mail it to 228 Rick Road, Perrin, TX 76486. For further information, contact Fred Mealio at (940) 798-4455.
Remember to give me any news about visitors over the holidays and if you have any news of upcoming events in the community, we need to get that in the paper as soon as possible.

When Juliette arrives at the Palm Grotto Spa to host a spiritual retreat, she runs into an old modeling colleague, Raven, who had always been disliked in the industry for many reasons. She isn't there for the retreat; in fact, her presence at the spa is somewhat mysterious.
Not long after Raven makes a cryptic threat to Juliette, the unsympatheticback-then beauty is found dead, poisoned by something in the green clayof a chai soy wrap. The following morning, a banner for the retreat hasbeen unceremoniously altered:
It's your turn to be nurtured, to be restored . . . to be murdered.
Suspicion is directed at Juliette who has history with Raven and certainlyknows how to use beauty products. But for murder?! Now she must findthe real killer before the police really take care of her.

RALEIGH — Firefighters were met with explosions when they arrived at a burning house on Barclay Drive in West Raleigh on Thursday and found it being consumed by flames.
The one-story house is at 5347 Barclay Drive in the Roylene Acres subdivision off Buck Jones Road. Buck Jones was closed between Jones Franklin and Bashford roads for a couple of hours as firefighters worked to put out the fire.
The first firefighters on the scene about 11 a.m. told dispatchers that they had encountered heavy fire in the 1,869-square-foot home.
Fire investigators were trying to determine what caused the explosions, though there were several propane tanks at the back of the house, said Division Chief Ronnie Mizell.
No one was hurt, though a dog named Spirit died in the fire, Mizell said.
Wake County records show that the house, built in 1955, is owned by Thomas and Joyce Barnes of Manteo.

HANNOVER MESSE: Chinese premier promises 'openness' in manufacturing market
Wen cites challenges, concedes China has 'a long way to go' on manufacturing quality
Chinese premier Wen Jiabao opened the 2012 Hannover Messe Sunday night in Germany with a promise of greater openness and cooperation on global industrial manufacturing and a concession that the Chinese still have a distance to go to achieve manufacturing excellence.
Wen addressed more than 3,000 guests at the Opening Ceremonies, a night of both political and cultural exchanges on the eve of Hannover Messe, the world's largest industrial trade show. More than 250,000 visitors are expected to attend the five-day event – and that won't count the approximately 200 protestors who waved signs and chanted outside the Hannover Congress Center Sunday night as Wen and a large Chinese contingent arrived for the ceremonies.
As the 2012 Partner Nation at Hannover Messe, China's emergence over the past decade as a global manufacturing force has been well-documented, and Wen's speech highlighted the rapid growth and success of the Chinese manufacturing emergence.
"It has taken China only 30 years to achieve what took developed countries 100 years to accomplish in industrialization," Wen said. "In this process, China has not only created enormous material wealth, but also gained important historical experience."
Wen also said China's continued growth depends on getting much better at not just the quantity of its output, but especially the quality. " 'Made in China' products are generally at the medium and low rungs of the international industrial chain, and have a long way to go to catch up with the advanced level," he said. "China is confronted with major challenges and problems with industrialization, including an inefficient model for industrial development, lack of market competitiveness, weak capacity for scientific and technological innovation and low efficiency in the use of resources."
Wen sought to assure the global audience in attendance that China intends to opens its market to the rest of the world, improve innovation and protect intellectual property rights. "We should continue to deepen international business cooperation and resolutely reject protectionism in all forms," Wen said. "China will remain unchanged in its commitment to the basic state policy of opening-up. We will continue to improve our laws, regulations and policies, expand market access, strengthen (intellectual property) protection, ensure there is a level playing field for all companies legally registered in China."

Are you a medical student who is participating in a community mental health service activity? Do you know someone who is?
The American Psychiatric Foundation is pleased to announce that our 2012 Helping Hands Grant application has been posted online. This program awards grants of up to $5,000 to medical schools for community mental health projects that are initiated and managed by medical students. Applications must be postmarked no later than May 31. For more information and to download the application, please visit us online.
UPDATE: Registration now closed due to overwhelming demand; please e-mail firstname.lastname@example.com to request to be on the wait-list! -steve
The PsychSIGN board has been working hard at planning this year's 7th Annual PsychSIGN National Conference in Philadelphia, and we hope you can join us! We met a bunch of you in Honolulu last year, and we'd love to see you again in Philly!
Why should you come?
The American Psychiatric Association established this program in 2004, to provide an opportunity for 4th year minority medical students to participate in a one-month clinical or research elective in HIV psychiatry.
With improvements in HIV drug therapy, there is a burgeoning demand to treat the mental health needs of those living longer with the disease. People with HIV have a higher incidence of mental health problems than the general population and, conversely, people with serious mental illness are more at risk for contracting HIV.

Rosler happy at Brentford ahead of FA Cup clash
2:17pm Thursday 1st November 2012 in Sport By Tim Ashton, Sports Editor
Brentford manager Uwe Rosler has distanced himself from the vacant manager's position at Crystal Palace.
Speculation has linked the former Manchester City striker with the Eagles post with the bookies giving odds of 12-1 behind Mike Appleton, Karl Robinson, Ian Holloway and Steve Coppell.
However, Rosler, who has been in charge at Griffin Park since June 2011, said: "This is the first I have heard about me being linked with the job.
"All I can say is that I have had no contact from Crystal Palace and I am focused entirely on our FA Cup game this weekend."
He added: "I am very happy here at Brentford and I want us to progress in the FA Cup."
Brentford travel to Boreham Wood of the Blue Square South this weekend in the first round proper.

ALBANY - The Darton College and Albany State women's basketball teams are thinking pink this week.
Darton will wear pink uniforms in its 5:30 p.m. home game today against Georgia Perimeter, and the Lady Rams will do the same in Tuesday's 5:30 p.m. home game against Clark Atlanta.
Proceeds from the games will benefit the Kay Yow/WBCA Cancer Fund.
Darton even will tip off with a pink-and-white basketball today.
"We're really excited about being able to participate in raising awareness for breast cancer," Darton coach Laura Blackwell said. "We just want to get the message out."
Admission is $3 for adults and $1 for those under 12, and Darton has already sold, according to Blackwell, more than 100 pink shirts which will generate proceeds toward the cause.
Albany State will charge a $1 donation to the cause for Tuesday's game.
"I just think it brings awareness to the problem of breast cancer," Albany State women's coach Robert Skinner said. "The money goes toward research, and the research is making it possible for those with breast cancer to live longer."

I make love to her only a few times in a year, as she�s not really into making love with me. But I�m OK because I can **** myself in front of her. But honestly speaking, I sometimes feel like inserting my dick into VAGINA!
Ive been called a ****er for thirty years.....does this qualify???
Pass me my sock

how you stumbled among that mike i dont know lol
fair play to the guy though, i usually last 15 mins when eva angelina is on lol
Im not sure if sitting there in a room with a load of other men masturbating for 9 hours is a little strange to.
To be fair though, if you were going for a world record of lasting before you blow a room full of men would work. A room full of women and it'd be allover in seconds for me, lol.
I reckon if it was a room full of women masturbating i wouldnt need to touch it!
I refuse to look at the link but there is one thing that I would like to know for pure comedy reasons... please tell me that he's got one arm unfeasibly larger than the other!?
Its not all bad though, halves my time doing arms in the gym!! Only need to train the left!

Although the majority of residents who came to City Hall Tuesday to discuss the Zoomars dinosaur would rather see it go the way of the, well, dinosaurs, the Cultural Heritage Commission voted to support the Apatosaurus.
Only three members of the commission attended, and they voted 2-1 to recommend to yet another panel, the San Juan Capistrano Planning Commission, that it approve Zoomars' plans for an educational area, which include:
- The 13-foot dinosaur statue, also known as Juan
- Shade structures
- Fossil dig areas
- Native American huts, known as kiichas
Zoomars is situated in the heart of the Los Rios Historic District, known as the oldest residential neighborhood in California.
The Planning Commission has already heard the issue once, when asked to approve Juan after the fact. He did not curry favor. Now the statue is part of a bigger proposal.
"That was unexpected. We have a chance," said petting zoo owner Carolyn Franks, wiping tears of joy. "Minds are opening. That's a good thing."
Not all. All three emails sent to the Cultural Heritage Commission urged a no-vote. Three of four residents who spoke did, too.
"If the dinosaur is allowed, it will set a precedent. And soon the area will turn into an amusement park, like Knott's Berry Farm," said Ilse Byrnes, who has opposed Juan since his arrival in late spring.
Sheree Ito of neighboring business Ito Nursey said the Apatosaurus has brought too many visitors to the area.
"The plans for Zoomars that has gone beyond an intensity designed for the district," Ito said. "That property is so over-developed for this at this point."
But Commission Chairwoman Rhonda deHaan said bringing more people to San Juan Capistrano and getting them to experience history is only a good thing.
"Kids go there. It's fun. They learn when it's fun. It's a great way to get people to Los Rios who would never go and never learn about it," she said. "It's important to keep our history. I would think this would be an awesome chance to share it."
Commissioner Nathan Banda agreed.
"What a great opportunity for the kids who live here who can't afford to go to the Discovery Center in Santa Ana or the transportation," he said.
deHaan added that she agreed that Juan fits the definition of a passive recreational use, which is allowed in the historic commercial zoning.
"It's a statue. it's not really doing anything. It's, to me, as passive as it gets," she said.
Commissioner Jan Siegel was the one official dissent. She said she didn't appreciate how the "in the middle of the night without any permits or approval, the dinosaur was moved in to its current position." She called the new plans "an attempt to throw mud at a wall and see what sticks."
The Planning Commission is expected to review the proposal in December.

After Fairfax and Vienna youth raised awareness for homelessness over the summer by constructing makeshift shelters from discarded materials and sleeping under the stars, they were recognized Tuesday for their efforts before the Fairfax County Board of Supervisors.
About 50 middle and high school students from Emmanuel Lutheran, Fairfax Presbyterian and Vienna Presbyterian Churches were honored for their participation in the "Fast Shacks" program.
Students spent a day building their shelters from cardboard, wood, tarp, twine and other recycled materials. The youths were split up into teams and allotted a $5 budget for the building supplies, but many were foraged.
They also abstained from solid foods during construction and through the night they spent outside in their shelters.
Supervisor Cathy Hudgins commended the students for building the improvised shelters and gaining an understanding of what many homeless people must do every night. She hoped their work would give Fairfax County residents some perspective on "shelter that we take for granted."
"It really helps establish an experience and a value that I hope they'll take with them as they grow up in our community," she said.
Bulova applauded area churches for their involvement in the initiative to help Fairfax County's homeless residents.
"The fact that our faith communities have become personally involved in serving the homeless has made a real difference in the way community feels about that issue," she said.
Andrew Buck, Emmanuel's youth director and one of the founders of the "Fast Shacks" idea, told supervisors he hoped it could become an annual event.
"It was just so powerful for our students, as well as our adults," he said.

Niagara Gazette
Niagara Gazette — How about adding a special fee for Canadians with season tickets to Buffalo Sabres' games? Maybe the state parks could impose a $50 day pass on all visitors from India, China, Japan, Europe and South America entering Prospect Park or Goat Island.
One of the most idiotic ideas to ever emerge from Washington, D.C. is a provision in the president's budget for fiscal year 2014 calling for a study that could result in a new border-crossing fee for Canadians. Obviously this could only be shaped by bureaucrats or politicians with little or no link to the real world. In this case, surprisingly, it was conceived by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security.
At any rate, you shouldn't be too upset by the suggestion because, as U.S. Sen. Charles Schumer, D-NY, said Friday, "The border fee will be dead on arrival in the Senate."
How could any clear-thinking individual ask our government to charge Canadians entering the U.S. on foot, in their vehicles or on a passenger train? As Schumer notes, Canadians spent $4.1 billion along the northern and southern borders in 2011. According to the federal Department of Commerce, more Canadians visited the Empire State in 2011 that any other state in the nation. We don't need lawmakers on Capitol Hill to convince us of that impact. Just take a glance any day in the week at stores and restaurants along Military Road or the steady lines of car and truck traffic at the international bridges.
Schumer's concerns are shared by a number of colleagues. U.S. Rep. Brian Higgins, D-New York, whose district includes Niagara Falls, questioned DHS Secretary Janet Napolitano during a congressional hearing last week. "Putting up economic barriers to regional commerce is the absolute last thing we should be doing to grow the Western New York economy," Higgins said.
IN THE PARK: During the prime tourist season you'll probably notice an increased presence of security in Prospect Park and around Goat Island. Mark Thomas, director of the regional state parks commission, said the part-time public safety rangers were called back early this year to assist the park police.
Meanwhile, Major David Page, who heads the park force, said he still is awaiting word whether recent graduates of the Basic School of the New York State Police Academy, Albany, will be assigned to the western district that includes the Niagara Falls State Park. Due to budget cuts, the academy had been shut down from June 2009 until last fall.
STRIKING OUT: The Huffington Post in Canada reports that the Toronto Blue Jays fans are the worst in Major League Baseball. That's a jolt to countless people in Western New York and southwestern Ontario who always look forward to those excursions every summer to the Rogers Centre in Toronto. The Jays' front office better take firm control of the situation or they'll be struggling with a lot of empty seats this year.
In an interview with the Toronto Star, former Jays catcher Greg Zaun said the "team's fans have definitely gotten worse." Zaun added: "They're getting drunker, and drunker and drunker and it's because the fans are getting younger and younger."
One thing for sure, the fans must be getting wealthier and wealthier if they can afford $9 draft beers.
ON THE HOUSE: As you sort out the impressive events that Artpark is offering to celebrate its 40th anniversary, mark the calendar too for July 29. That's when the Kiwanis Club of Lewiston will sponsor its sixth annual "Free Family Movie Night" at 8 p.m. at the outdoor amphitheater. The feature this year on the giant Jumbotron screen will be Disney Pixar's "Brave."
MATH PROBLEM: Overheard a coffee group at McDonald's in the City Market: "Why are you guys always challenging me? You know I'm right 98 percent of the time. Okay, so I mess up on the other three percent."

Pakeen Farm on Elm Street in Canton began it's Christmas Tree season over the weekend. Every year the Pakeen Farm invites area residents into their fields to pick out your perfect Christmas tree while taking in the brisk New England air and then joining them at the barn for hot cocoa.
Pakeen grows their own Choose & Cut Christmas Trees right there on the several acres that their farm has on Elm Street in Canton. Choose and Cut trees as well as Freshly Cut trees, wreaths, roping and other holiday decorations are available. Each tree is nurtured for over eight years before it is tall enough to sell. They have a number of varieties: Balsam Fir, Fraser Fir, Douglas Fir,Concolor Fir, Blue Spruce, White Spruce and Norway Spruce.
There are a limited number of these "Choose & Cut" trees each Christmas season.
The Freshly Cut trees are premium-grade trees that are brought to Pakeen Farm from large Christmas tree farms located in northern New England, Canada and North Carolina. They seek the freshest, highest quality trees, and also maintain good relationships with the farms that they work with. This year, they will be selling two varieties:Premium BALSAM FIR and Premium FRASER FIR. The selection of these trees ranges in size from "Table Top" to nine feet tall. Priced by size, and range from $30-$90 each.

More draft signingsBy
In addition to the Andrew Brackman megadeal (largest bonus they've ever given to a drafted player, and the 3rd largest they've ever given period, behind, ugh, Hideki Irabu & Jose Contreras), the Yanks also locked up the following players:
- California high school catcher Austin Romine, second round ($500,000).
- Texas third baseman Brad Suttle, fourth round ($1,300,000).
- Texas high school outfielder Taylor Grote, eighth round ($250,000).
- Louisiana high school shortstop Carmen Angelini, 10th round ($1,000,000).
All the deals are over slot, while the Suttle and Angelini deals are records for their respective rounds. Suttle may be the big name, but I think Angelini's the better prospect. Overall it was a nice haul this year for the Yanks (you can see all their picks and whether or not they signed here), they added some legit position player prospects to all those arms, and continued to flex their financial muscles by taking signability guys in the later rounds. Bravo front office, bravo.
Updates on some prominent non-Yankee draftees after the jump.
The D-Rays inked #1 overall pick David Price to a gargantuan 6-yr ML deal, worth a guaranteed $8.5M ($5.6M bonus), but could escalate to as much as $11.25M.
As of this writing, the following 1st rounders have yet to sign:
- #2 pick Mike Moustakas (Royals, doesn't look like it'll get done)
- #3 pick Josh Vitters (Cubbies, it'll be announced shortly)
- #5 pick Matt Weiters (O's, not gonna get done, Angelos fucked this one up by hiring Andy McPhail between the draft & signing deadline)
- #9 pick Jarrod Parker (D-Backs, gonna get done)
13 Comments»
Hey do you guys have any scouting reports on Angelini, Yanks must be real high on him a Mill for a 10th rounder.
Also, will we see any of these guys time in the minors this year or maybe another player or two in the winter leagues? It was nice to see Kennedy and Chamberlain pitch last winter, any thoughts on who it might be this year?
I suspect Suttle will get sent to Staten Island ASAP, where he'll displace Damon Sublett as the #3 hitter. Angelini, Romine, Grote & Weems could all go to the GCL, although it'll be tough to work out the playing time with Romine, Weems & Montero all being catchers.
As far as the winter leagues go, I have intentions of drumming up a post about this in the very near future, so I'll answer that in the coming days. Sneak Preview: they had better send Phil Hughes to the Arizona Fall League considering all the time he missed.
I see no reason to send Hughes to the AFL.
The innings he missed are a good thing, they kept the workload down.
I haven't seen anyone mention the serendipity of the Scooter's passing and Angelini's signing the next day. Hopefully Carmen (Yogi Berra's wife's name) will take a place Yankee SS pantheon
explain to me how the yankees are going to get draft picks if a rod leaves. i had an arguement with a red sox fan who says the dodgers didnt get anything for jd drews opt out when he signed with boston. thanks
I doubt Hughes goes to the AFL… the season runs from early Oct to mid Nov. I live down the road from the AFL affiliate so I'd be the first one in line for tix but I'm still hoping he's pitching in the playoffs instead. It sucks for next year… he might only get half of the 180 innings that he was targeted for this year. Figure he'll be on a pitch count again next year
j smith–the yanks will get picks if arod leaves because it was written specifically into his contract, unlike drew's contract, according to cashman.
adam–phil should pitch in the AFL, the problem with the amount of work he's had, and will have, this year is that it's not enough. they wanted him to get to 180 innings…if the yankees get to the alcs lets say, and he has 2 starts and 1 relief appearance, throwing 15 innnings, has 8 more regular season starts (throwing about 50 innings), thats only around 130 innings. give or take some on the playoffs and the remainder of the regular season, but the bottom line is that he's not going to exceed last years total if he doesnt pitch in the AFL
Mike, about Angelini, all the reports on him say he could be a potential 5-tool player in the future, but with Jeter at SS, who will probably sign an extension in 2010 to play here until he's 40 as to get his 3500th hit and more, will Angelini ever get a fair chance to take over that position? We'd like to think "yes", but the yankees and their casual fans (anyone not reading Riveraveblues ) that dont know about angelini's potential will definitely want jeter to stay here forever, even with his declining defense and overpaid contract. What do you think will happen with Angelini if in the future he's at AAA hitting around .330/.400/.450 with 20 SB? Will the yankees give him a fair chance or maybe move Jeter to another position? Just random musings…
jeter could move to third base like ripken did. dont know how he'd handle it, but second will probably still be occupied by cano. you have ot see how players respond to pro ball before you can begin to make any assessments about their future with the team
lets see if the kid can play before we start moving anyone.
Yankees signed 29 of top 33 picks, a very good yield overall. If the scouts did their job as well this year as last, we should see some impressive talent come thru the system.
I'm a little upset that the Yanks didn't sign the LHP/RHP Pat Venditte. That really would have been interesting.

Herald Staff Writer
FARRELL — The Farrell teen accused of killing Farrell bar-owner William Basilone Jr. on Dec. 30 won't face the death penalty, Mercer County District Attorney Robert G. Kochems said.
Kochems won't pursue a death sentence in the case because the "mitigating factors" a jury would consider against it "outweigh the single factor" to seek it, Mercer County District Attorney Robert G. Kochems said.
Kochems wouldn't detail the factors to make the argument either way, but the crimes code outlines circumstances including the age of the defendant, their mental state and prior criminal history.
Stewart, 18, has been in Mercer County Jail since Jan. 3. Bond isn't applicable in homicide cases.
According to the criminal information filed Wednesday, Stewart is charged with one count each of first degree murder and second degree murder. An alleged accomplice, Devine Campbell 17, is charged with second degree murder. Campbell's also in Mercer County Jail and is charged as an adult in the case.

More Technology Puts Doctors in Ethical Bind
In the article "More Technology Puts Doctors in Ethical Bind," Barbara Mannino brings up the issue that doctors are continually being put under increasing pressure to decide between the good of the patient and the cost of their chosen treatments. Mannino points out in one part of her article that doctors shouldn't have to worry so much about how much a certain test or treatment will cost. The priority should be the best interest of the patients. Unfortunately, with insurance companies these days trying to decide what would be acceptable, doctors are being cut off at the knees in coming up with what is best for their patients. And if all of that weren't enough, doctors also have to worry about being sued for malpractice.
Speaking first about malpractice, I'm sure in their original form, had a foundation in equity and fairness. Nowadays it seems they, like many things in this society, are abused and taken far out of context for what they were originally intended. In regards to doctors having to choose what is best for a patient and have to try and balance what is cost effective, I think it is truly unfortunate that this should even be an issue. If people are sick, they should get whatever treatment is available to make them better, no matter the cost. The fact that business and costs are deciding factor as to whether someone gets better or not is appalling.

Jack Jacobs
I wanted to be part of a proactive change in policy and how industry is developing products, devices, and projects."
Founder and Managing Partner, Cleantech Law Partners
Jack Jacobs has held a variety of legal, policy, and business positions in the United States and abroad since graduating from VLS. "My background is a pu pu platter of experience," he said, chuckling. "There have been a lot of curves in my career path." Many of Jacob's college classmates used their environmental science degrees to become administrators at sewage treatment plants and landfills, but "studying E coli and wastewater wasn't exactly what I wanted to do with my life," he said.
Instead, he came across a magazine article about the growing field of environmental law and decided that's what he wanted to do. After graduating from VLS, he envisioned himself working as an attorney for the Sierra Club Legal Defense Fund, Natural Resources Defense Council or another national environmental nonprofit. He sent out hundreds of résumés but got nowhere.
He landed his first job at the Boston law firm of Shep Johnson JD'86, who put him to work as an environmental litigator on local pollution and land use cases. "It was a great experience because it was a small practice and he trusted me and just threw me right in. Opposing counsel was yelling at me from the start. It wasn't a traditional start for young lawyers."
But Jacobs decided litigation wasn't for him, so he became in-house counsel for a communications company, where he reviewed contracts and handled other business issues. "I developed good business knowledge, but it wasn't environmental law, which is what I wanted to do," he said.
Next, he moved to Israel, where he had spent a year in college. He worked in several jobs, including as a policy analyst for the Israel Ministry of Environmental Protection, adjunct lecturer at the Arava Institute for Environmental Studies, a clean technology consultant for Terra Venture Partners, and corporate attorney for Israel's second largest law firm, where he established an environmental law department.
After four years in Israel, he decided to return to the United States and in 2009 became in-house counsel at BrightSource Energy, the world's leading solar thermal energy company. In 2010, he founded Cleantech Law Partners in San Francisco, a boutique law firm that serves the legal and policy needs of renewable energy project developers and clean tech companies. "My interest is in using the law to encourage development of clean technologies," he said.
At VLS and Lewis and Clark Law School, where he received an LLM, he learned that environmental law typically involves using lawsuits to oppose shopping malls, factories and other development projects-a practice known as "hole-punching" as in punching holes in developers' buckets. But he decided he wanted to encourage clean technology rather than oppose dirty developments or force them to retrofit. "I didn't want to be hole puncher," he said. "I wanted to be part of a proactive change in policy and how industry is developing products, devices, and projects. If you have the technology to not pollute in the first place, then environmental laws become secondary."
At Cleantech Law Partners, Jacobs serves as managing partner. He helps companies develop clean technology and helps developers install those technologies, such as wind farms, solar panels, geothermal power stations, and electric vehicles. "We use a business approach to push environmental change," he said. "I'm practicing little law these days, but my legal experience and skills are key to my being able to meet our clients' legal needs."
Jacobs advised new and recent VLS alumni to be flexible in their career paths. "Be open to whatever life throws at you. Not everyone can be chief counsel at the NRDC or Earthjustice, but there are a lot of other ways for lawyers with strong backgrounds to have a big impact."

Today: Becoming Cloudy & Chilly Again
High: 44
Tonight: Cloudy & Chilly with a Bit of Rain in the City and Wet Snow North & West Low: 38 City: 28 N&W
Saturday: Morning Drizzle, Wet Snow N&W, then Breaks of Sun & Chilly.
High: 47
Sunday AM Fog and Drizzle, then Sunshine and Mild
High: 58
Monday & Tuesday: Sun & Clouds Very Warm for December!
Highs: 60-62
Good Morning,
There will be sunshine today which will be dimmed by high clouds on a few occasions... The satellite imagery from very early this morning is showing some cirrus clouds sliding across the area, while a cold front located in New England continues to press southward... This front is expected to push as far south as the mid Atlantic region later on today before it begins to lift back to the north tonight -- only at that juncture, it'll become a warm front as it reverses its course...
So, with a light wind out of the north and northeast today and these clouds moving through, most temperatures will be in the 40s across the Tri-State Area this afternoon... Some of the typically colder northern and western suburbs are starting off in the mid and upper 20s, so these locations may have a difficult time climbing any higher than 40 or 42 -- conversely, it'll be in the mid 40s in the City and most coastal communities... With the surface flow tonight primarily out of the east and southeast, some Atlantic moisture is going to be pulled into the region... And, that aforementioned warm front is probably going to produce a bit of light, spotty precipitation as it presses northward... Therefore, with temperatures mostly in the 30s during the overnight hours, but also well above the freezing mark nearly everywhere, we should be allowing for a touch of rain, some drizzle and even a few wet snowflakes... Because any precipitation associated with some milder air aloft moving into the Northeast late tonight and tomorrow will be very light, and the temperatures in a very "marginal" category to bring some wet snowflakes, we feel that most of the these will be confined to areas well north and west of the City, where it'll be in the lower or middle 30s late tonight and tomorrow morning... Fog is also something we'll need to look out for late tonight... Also, it appears at this time that the wet snowflakes will bring NO ACCUMULATION...
Tomorrow, clouds will probably linger all day long, or these will very begrudgingly yield to some brightening in spots during the afternoon, because of the persistence of a light northeasterly or easterly wind... So, as we mentioned yesterday, we don't think that the temperature will manage to climb out of the 40s...
Some fog is expected to form late tomorrow night, which will last into early Sunday... But, with winds shifting around to the south and southwest on Sunday afternoon, there should be some sunshine, and it will become warmer.... Most temperatures will be in the mid and upper 50s on Sunday, and both Monday and Tuesday should be even warmer... High temperatures early next week will be mostly in the lower and middle 60s before a cold front arrives late on Tuesday night or early Wednesday morning... We should at least allow for a shower during both of these time periods, before some cooling takes place during the middle of next week...
Have a good weekend !!!

It wasnt a horrible night for the Rochester Americans, but they saw their three game winning streak snapped by the struggling Wilkes-Barre/Scranton Penguins tonight in overtime. For the chicks, it was the first win, and first point in the standings. The only other team without a win in the AHL snapped that record tonight, as the Worchester Sharks also won, giving every team in the AHL at least one victory. For the Americans, it does represent a loss, but they still have a four game point streak going.
For the Rochester squad, Kevin Porter, veteran captain of the AHL club scored a goal, and was joined by Evan Rankin, Mark Mancari, and Luke Adam.
None of the streaking Amerks were able to keep things going, save for defensive prospect T.J. Brennan who is making a very strong case to be on the Buffalo Sabres blue line when the NHL resumes play, adding two more assists tonight and being a plus four. Kevin Porter also added an assistant to have a multi-point night.

Boggio, Gibbs, Paetznick Pitch Valpo To Doubleheader Sweep of Butler
Saturday, March 29, 2003Valparaiso, Ind. - Three Valpo pitchers turned in impressive performances as the Crusaders (6-9-1) swept a doubleheader from Butler by scores of 3-2 and 2-0. In the first game, Marc Boggio hurled a complete-game, three hitter and Kevin Kutansky drove in the winning run with a two-out double in the bottom of the sixth inning. In the nightcap, Elliott Gibbs and Adam Paetznick combined on the three-hit shutout. Gibbs struck out nine in 6 innings. Eric Snyder's RBI sacrifice bunt and a passed ball accounted for Valpo's runs. Snyder and Kyle Young had two hits each on the day.
Butler (9-13) scored two runs in the top of the second of the first game. Rex Eaton had an RBI single and Paul Beck followed with an RBI double during the frame.
Valpo countered with two runs in the bottom of the second. Following singles by Young and Kutansky, Snyder delivered an RBI single. Eddie Hannan then plated Kutansky with a sacrifice bunt.
Boggio (1-2), who fanned six and walked one, held the Bulldogs scoreless the rest of the way. After the second inning, Butler's Aaron Phillips (1-3) pitched three innings of shutout ball until Kutansky's double in the sixth scored pinch runner Ryan Eberhardt from first base. Eberhardt was running for Young, who had singled up the middle with two outs. Boggio retired the side in order to pick up his second complete-game of the season.
A senior righthander from West Bloomfield, Mich., Boggio was more effective as the game progressed, retiring 15 of the last 16 hitters.
In the second game, Gibbs, a freshman from Munster, Ind., was working on a no-hitter into the sixth until Tim Marks hit a one-out single deep in the hole at shortstop. Ryan Nance followed with a bloop single to left to load the bases before Gibbs (1-1) escaped by forcing Mike Rosen into a fielder's choice groundout.
The Crusaders scored both of their runs in the fifth off Butler starter Luke Behning (2-1). Brandon Sadler led off with a single and Nick Mazzone walked before Tyler Lowell advanced the runners with a sacrifice bunt. Following an intentional walk to Kutansky, Snyder's sacrifice bunt was fielded by Nance, a first baseman, who threw late to the plate as Sadler slid in safely. Mazzone then scored an insurance run on a passed ball.
Paetznick earned his second save, pitching the final inning.
Boggio belted a double in the second game and now stands second on Valpo's all-time list with 55. He needs one to tie Mark Pedersen for the school record. Snyder was hit by two pitches today and now has a Mid-Continent Conference-leading 11 hit-by-pitches this season.
Valpo will play Butler in Indianapolis on Sunday at 1 p.m. EST.

We argue that some, but not all, superstitions can persist when learning is rational and players are patient, and illustrate our argument with an example inspired by the Code of Hammurabi. The code specified an "appeal by surviving in the river" as a way of deciding whether an accusation was true. According to our theory, a mechanism that uses superstitions two or more steps off the equilibrium path, such as "appeal by surviving in the river," is more likely to persist than a superstition where the false beliefs are only one step off the equilibrium path.

Palate entry is full-bodied, sweet and honeyed; at midpalate the taste profile turns drier, more intensely grainy-mashy and breakfast cereal-like.

A delicate, silky entry leads to a dry-yet-fruity medium-to-full body of honeyed grain, sweet baking spice, vanilla bean, and pralines. Finishes with a long, rich fruity caramel, peppery spice and mineral accented fade. A elegant sipping or mixing bourbon."

Angel's Envy Port Barrel Finished Bourbon
Kentucky straight bourbon whiskey finished in a port pipe. This is veteran master distiller Lincoln Henderson's newest creation, and it's a beauty. Richly textured, silky, and well-rounded, with ripe berried fruits, candied tangerine, light toffee, maple syrup, and creamy vanilla, sprinkled with spice (cinnamon, hint of mint). Smooth, silky finish, and dangerously drinkable! The port pipe notes dovetail perfectly. Lovely just the way it is, but it's begging for a cigar. My only gripe: why not 45 or 50% ABV? But I'm splitting hairs. I really enjoy this stuff!

Wild Turkey huh?

Reviewed by: Dram Stoker
Color: Deep Amber.
Nose: Prevalence of vanilla, cinnamon toast, touch of caramel and some oak.
Taste: A warming elixir with the a balance of sweet nuttiness, sugar cane, hints of cinnamon and some oak. There's some thickness on the mouthfeel rounded by the sweetness and that will keep you pouring multiple glasses (as I am doing right now)..
Finish: Luscious candy, caramel, vanilla and pecans.

That passion to understand the culture is what sets Pawling and his research apart, says Soctomah.
"I've met a lot of researchers," he says. "I grew up seeing them on the reservation doing research, interpreting as they want and leaving, never to be seen again. Micah's special because he brings in the community. I've never met a researcher that in tune with his work and the concerns of the Native people. In that way, he gets the full picture. He's a specialist in Wabanaki research. What's also important is getting back the information he finds — information pertinent to the (recognition) case in Canada, to cultural significance and to the education of our children."
Today, the Passamaquoddy tribe continues to petition the Canadian government for recognition. Some of the 19th-century documents discovered through Pawling's research could play a role in proving the existence of the aboriginal communities through time.
"Passamaquoddy petitions reveal that the people strove to preserve connections with the eastern portion of their homeland in Charlotte County, New Brunswick," Pawling says. "With family bands hunting and fishing across the international border, the tribe maintained a sense of homeland that included obtaining a foothold in New Brunswick, even though the province had refused to recognize them as Canada's First Nations peoples."
The 1783 Treaty of Paris established the border at the St. Croix River, but uncertainty as to the true location of the river led to a boundary commission, which relied on Passamaquoddy testimony, resolving the dispute in 1798. The international border cut the Passamaquoddy homeland in two.
"I've had several meetings on Passamaquoddy land claims in Canada in which we're asked to show evidence that our community was here. The petitions serve as our foundation for obtaining Canadian recognition," Soctomah says.
"I've been fighting for 15 years, carrying on from the people before me. The stuff that Micah found gives us a strong voice. Every time there's a change in government in Canada, we keep talking. I can never give up hope, like my ancestors never gave up hope."
Soctomah also ensures that the wishes of his tribe are heard in Augusta. As a tribal representative in the Maine legislature for eight years, Soctomah wrote resolutions that reflected the wishes of the Passamaquoddy Council.
"That becomes my petition," he says, "to go after changes. It's a similar process within a system."
Measuring the outcomes of petitions in the past isn't as simple as counting up how many were granted, Pawling says. Petitions rejected by governments could be followed up by negotiations resulting in partial fulfillment of the request, and some petitions that governments granted were never enforced.
"Petitions also reveal why Native people are still concerned with land loss today," Pawling says.
The hope, he says, is that his research shows the complexity of the past and contributes to an understanding of the ethnohistory of the Native communities and their ongoing issues.
"People and places may change," he says, "but the challenges of land retention, rights and cultural misunderstandings don't go away."
