Numerology Monthly Numbers
June 2010
June 2010 carries the numerological frequency of an eight.
Eight is the number of justice, inspiration, and genius and it is the number of money.
June is a month where you will probably feel dynamic and driven to move forward with your hopes and dreams. It is a time when things can manifest through your determination and dedication.
This month your career or business choices in life are responsive to your honesty and the progressive approach to all that encompasses it. There will be a constant flow of activity that will stimulate your creative thoughts and force you to broaden your horizons. There are no limits this month if you are willing to explore all avenues that are available to you.
Your personal life will also be limitless if you so choose. It is a wonderful time to move out of the comfort zones and embrace all that exists on the interior and the exterior of self.
There is a downside to an eight month. You can fall into the pit of rigid rightfulness. It will serve your purposes better if you permit flexibility to be part of your thought process and allow others to help weave your tapestry. This may be especially true in personal relationships. The give and take of contributions brings about a stronger fabric.
Money is reflected by the eight energy of June. It is a time to respect money, earn it, and utilize it in ways that bring good to you and others. June gives you the opportunity to attract more of it.

Relations are governed by the Cape Verde-EU Special Partnership, which goes beyond the traditional donor-beneficiary relationship by means of an action plan focusing on:
The EU is Cape Verde's main trading partner. In December 2011 Cape Verde obtained access to the GSP+ trade regime.
The EU earmarked €51m for Cape Verde through the 10th European Development Fund (2008-13). That amount has since been increased by €10.2m, bringing the total to €61.2m. The main focus of the programme is on alleviating poverty and developing the Special Partnership.

Apple and strawberry pie… Yum
Soda bread
Fresh bread is one of the things that all people seem to swoon over. The only issue I find is how long the process takes. Proofing, Kneading etc. can sometimes take a whole day. And although it is worth it sometimes you just don't have the time.
I found this great recipe for soda bread – which from start to finish (including cooking time) only takes about 50 minutes – perfect for a very cold British day when you just want some warm bread and melted butter.
Much to my delight whist rummaging through the cupboards for some divine condiment to smother the fresh soda bread with I discovered I still had a little for my Fortnum & Mason gold leaf marmalade left (you did read that correct – gold leaf!)
Every Christmas I treat myself to a few jars of jams, curds & pickles from Fortnum & Mason and last December I just couldn't resist the thought of consuming gold on Christmas morning, delightfully decadent – honestly I'm surprised is has lasted this long.
Raspberry swirl rolls.
The most amazing thing happened the other day – I came home from work and my other-half announced that I was to partake in a treasure hunt (!?!) …. What followed was a series of hidden clues and riddles littered about our house, that would eventually lead me to the most amazing gift ever – something I have been obsessing about forever. My very own Kitchenaid mixer!!! And not just any Kitchenaid – but the limited edition pearlescent and frosted glass bowl mixer – screams were made, fainting considered, baking obligatory.
And so since my wonderful, glorious fiancé loves raspberries I christened 'the pearl' (my mixers name) with a batch of sweet raspberry rolls.
I found this recipe a while ago but all the kneading put me off – however now with the dough hook attachment it makes life much easier.
These rolls freeze really well – so it's worth making a big batch and warming them in the oven whenever you fancy one, Delicious.
After seeing this I NEED to go to Paris
Apple rose custard tarts
So with Valentine's Day still lingering in the air, today I wanted to create something with maximum impact and little effort (with a hint of romance)
I had discovered this apple rose tart recipe a while ago and wanted to give it a try.
But today I was feeling a little lazy. So I bought some pre-made pastry, pre-made custard (shock horror!) and decided focus on the 'apple rose' element. (More of an experiment to see if I could do it to be honest)
Great - very easy and very very effective.
This would be great for a party as they are very simple to assemble but look like lots of work.
p.s. sorry no step-by-step pics today - being a bit lazy
The ultimate 'Mom's apple pie' Cupcakes
I love America – I have visited several time and the food haunts my dreams (that's right … I'm looking at you Texas) and I recently stumbled upon a challenge to create a cupcake that demonstrates 'American-style baking'. This whole thing seemed right up my street – baking? Creativity? The chance to win a Kitchen Aid? I'M IN!
I came up with several ideas but I felt that apple pie not only screams USA but but also gave me the most flexibility in getting ingredients in the UK and having fun with the presentation.
So, I started with the 'pie' idea – I defiantly wanted to use pastry in the cake in some way and have managed to incorporate it (after some trial and error) in both the cake itself and the decoration.
Pie filling:
I wanted to fill the cakes to give them a real 'apple pie feel' so I made a very simple (but delicious) filling
1 bramley apple
2 coxs apples
2 tablespoons of demerara sugar
½ lemon zested
½ lemon juice
½ teaspoon cinnamon
Chop up the apples (after peeling and coring) and place in a saucepan
Add the cinnamon, sugar, lemon juice and zest – mix
Place on a low heat and cook till soft and gooey
Simple – or you could by some apple sauce if you're feeling a bit lazy
Once cooked leave to completely cool
Either make some sweet short crust pastry or buy some pre-made (I bought some as I felt I had enough to do) Roll out, cut to the size of the bottom of the cake cases (12) place into a muffin tin and blind bake (alternatively you could cook a sheet of the pastry, crumble up and place a layer in the base of the cake cases instead)
Once the pastry is halfway cooked – remove baking tray and leave to cool while you make the cupcake mix
Cinnamon/apple cup cakes (makes 12):
4½oz/120g plain flour
5oz/140g caster sugar
1½ tsp baking powder
A pinch of salt
1½oz/40g unsalted butter, at room temperature
2½floz/70ml whole milk
2 floz/60ml apple juice
1 egg
½ tsp cinnamon
¼ tsp vanilla extract
Mix the flour, sugar, baking powder, salt and butter together
Once combined
Whisk the egg, vanilla extract, milk and apple juice together in a separate bowl/jug
Pour half of this into the dry ingredients – once evenly combined add the rest and mix till smooth (don't over mix)
Spoon into the pastry lined cake cases and bake 20-25 mins 170C/325F/gas mark 3.
Once cooked (test with a skewer – if it comes out clean they are cooked) leave to cool while you make the icing/frosting and decorations.
9oz/250g icing sugar, sifted
3oz/80g unsalted butter, at room temperature
½ fl oz/12ml whole milk
½ fl oz/12ml apple juice
A couple of drops of vanilla extract
Beat the icing sugar and butter together (if you have a mixer I advise it – my hand held wisk broke half way through – making this by hand was one hell of a job – but I can be done)
Once combined slowly mix in the milk, juice and vanilla extract a few spoonfuls at a time
Beat the hell out of it – it will take time by hand but it will become nice and fluffy
I made some extra pastry and crumbled it up – this is to roll the edge of the cake in once iced (you can leave it at this as it still has awesome apple pie flavour)
I also used some of the spare pastry to make mini 'pie lids' – this was great fun and super cute
Once the cakes are iced and crumbed I put one smaller spoonful of the pie filling on top, then adorned it with the mini 'pie lid' and a squirt of cream
I was so happy with how these came out – they taste just like apple pie, with a lovely cinnamon background flavour – GLORIOUS!!!
P.S. as you can see I finally invested in an amazing new camera – pro look shots this time :)
Mars bar brownies
I have an ever growing number of cook books (and with my significant other working in a book shop I have a constant supply)
One of my all time favourites is "Marcus Wareing, How to Cook the Perfect…" (Constantly using this book for the scones recipe as well – perfect every time)
While he has the football on I will flick though my books – and realised I hadn't made an brownies in ages (years ago I used to make these much more)
So I decided to use the brownie recipe from 'how to cook the perfect…' as a base for my Mars Bar brownies.
Because I'm lazy today the recipe can be found here
I of course changed it slightly by cutting up a couple of Mars bars and throwing them in right before baking – this give the odd molten caramel bite as you eat them – glorious
Eight-strand plaited loaf
Long time no blog - life has been a bit hectic and I have been trying to eat a lot healthier (meaning less cakes – I know – depressing) so I haven't really got round to updating COG till today (its raining and I have a day off work)
Anyway. Following on from the lemon tart I made while inspired by the Great British Bake off, around the same time I also wanted to attempt some bread baking.
On the shows 'bread week' they tackled an 'eight strand plated loaf' – looked complicated and time consuming – perfect!
I found the recipe they used here
The main complication is the plaiting of the loaf – I personally found it very therapeutic, but I'm odd like that – I know (from watching the show) others would rather gnaw off their own arm.
The best piece of advice I could give is only concentrate on one instruction at a time. It is easy to get confused with instructions like "place 8 under 7 and over 1" but I thought of it like this "place 8 under 7 ….stop…. then over 1" much easier for my brain to compute.
Tarte au citron / Lemon tart
The lemon tart has been in my repertoire for a while now. I discovered early in my relationship with my other half that if I want to get on his good side I need to make something with lemons!
This particular tart was a result of us both forgetting our anniversary (I know, I know but work has been crazy for both of us) so this was an 'apology tart'.
At around the same time I had been enthralled with watching the 'Great British Bake off' and low and behold they has an episode on tarts (with the Tarte au citron being the technical challenge)
I decided to try Mary Berry's recipe but with a twist. Where her recipe calls for 4 Lemons I used 3½ and 1 lime (including zest) This gave the tart a lovely Lime background flavour that hit you every so often while eating. most enjoyable!
Notable knowledge
1. I used a food processor but you can easily use your hands if you don't have one. You simple rub the butter into the flour till it resembles breadcrumbs - its best to get someone with cold hands to do this so the butter doesn't melt
2. If you don't have baking beans you can use rice
3. You MUST fill the pasty case while in the oven. If you fill it then try to move it into the oven it will spill, and the filling will get in-between the pastry and the tin. This will result in a nightmare struggle to remove the tart from the tin.
this picture is just so autumn to me - I took this at London borough market - definitely worth a foodie visit
Sugar Skull Pumpkin
I am totally in love with Halloween!!! I think I may love it almost as much as Christmas, and although this isn't a foodie post its a precursor to the now obscene amount of squash recipes I will have to produce
Every year I insist on carving a pumpkin and I now have a timeline of photos on my wall of pumpkins past.
This year I wanted to make a pumpkin that looked just as good during the day as it did at night. (I travelled across London to try and find a white pumpkin - alas they don't seem to exist in the UK - spray paint it is then)
With my earlier trip this year to Texas (and the Mexican market in San Antonio) I fell in love with sugar skulls (we managed to pick up some beautiful sugar skull print fabric that is currently being turned onto pillows) I love not only the intricate designs but also just how colourful they are, also the idea of bringing a bit of colour into the usual orange and black colour palette of Halloween made me smile.
For the 'night' shots I also wanted to try playing with glow sticks (I am such a sucker for glow sticks!!!) A while ago I stumbled upon this glow jars tutorial, and have been waiting for an excuse to try it. Halloween was that excuse. So much fun.
Olympics Gold medal Cake
Well the Olympics are over and I'm missing them already – I had become accustom to my daily sport intake, living and working in London made the experience even better. The general attitude of everyone was more upbeat, I got to see a couple of great Olympic football matches and I even got to meet a member of team GB (table tennis – he came into my shop in full GB sports get up) – Olympics! You will be missed.
And every leaving party (or closing ceremony) of course deserves a cake
I wanted to keep this cake pretty straight forward (the truth is it had to travel half way across London on public transport) but I still wanted to celebrate all the gold medals that were won. Sugar work, here I come.
I started with the basic vanilla sponge cake I had used in one of my previous entries (Neapolitan 5 layer cake with ganache drip glaze)
In total I made 5 cakes – each layer was coloured to represent the colours of the Olympic rings.
This cake was always going to be about the icing.
I wanted I golden look but without the use of edible glitter (I don't know why but I really don't like that stuff – it just cheapens the look of any cake)
I remembered that I had bookmarked a triple salted caramel cupcake recipe from 'sprinkle bakes' that I had been wanting to do for a while.
Although the cupcakes do look great was concerned primarily with the frosting.
I doubled this recipe so I had more than enough to ice all 5 layers of the cake and the decorate the outside
For the 'gold medals' – I again used the basic recipe that was on Sprinkles bakes (excluding the sugar crystals), but instead of drizzling the molten sugar to a pattern I simply pored it onto small circles.
Decoration was very simple – I slathered the cake with caramel frosting (including a crumb coat), piped fat blobs the whole way round the edge of the cake, laid the 'gold medals' on each blob the adorned the centre with loads of toothpick flags I had previously made.
It was a closing ceremony of sugar – the best kind
Now to get started on the cake for Rio 2016 (ha!)
Notable knowledge
1. You really need to watch the sugar when making the caramel - it will burn very quickly if you leave it on the heat for a moment too long
2. To make the 'medals' again you have to work very quickly - the sugar will be rock solid in no time
3. When working with sugar you may think you have ruined your saucepans - the simplest way to clean them is fill them with boiling water and boil on the hob for a few minutes, the sugar will just dissolve away (no scrubbing)

LiveSaints 0 Cardiff 1
This live event has finished

- Saints lose despite dominating much of the match
- Mauricio Pochettino's side remain eighth in the Premier League
The Sports Pink is now available to read on your iPhone, iPad or online! The latest edition goes live every Saturday night.
Click the front page below for more information!
Cardiff hold on for what could be a vital three points. It's a frustrating result for Saints, who dominated much of the game, but the result is far from a disaster for Mauricio Pochettino's side, who remain eighth in the table. Thanks for joining us. We will have a full report and reaction for you on the website shortly, and make sure to see tonight's Sports Pink for even more.
CHANCE (89 mins): Wilfried Zaha nearly seals it, breaking clear and bursting between Jose Fonte and Dejan Lovren, only to be denied by Paulo Gazzaniga one-on-one.
CHANCE (82 mins): Another stunning David Marshall stop denies Saints, this time diving low to his left to keep out Nathaniel Clyne's fierce left-footed drive from the edge of the area.
Cardiff: Fabio off, McNaughton on (79 mins).
Saints: Cork off, Do Prado on (79 mins).
CHANCE (77 mins): Saints go close to an equaliser. Morgan Schnedierlin's stunning chipped ball over the top finds Sam Gallagher, but he's denied by a brilliant David Marshall save.
Saints: Chambers off, Clyne on (67 mins).
Saints: Ramirez off, Gallagher on (66 mins).
SAINTS 0 CARDIFF 1 (Cala 65)
It's a goal from out of nowhere, but a huge one for Cardiff, as Cala controls a ball on the edge of the area, moving it into space, before firing a stunning left foot strike into the far corner that gives a diving Paulo Gazzaniga no chance.
Cardiff: Gary Medel off, Wilfried Zaha on (61 mins).
CHANCE (61 mins): Calum Chambers delivers a good cross from the right, which Rickie Lambert glances just over the bar.
CHANCE (60 mins): A rare break forward from Cardiff ends with Jordon Mutch running into space, before firing in a well-struck shot from 25 yards that Paulo Gazzaniga does well to parry away.
The second half is underway.
Saints have a penalty appeal waved away by the referee, after claims that Luke Shaw's cross had hit Steven Caulker's arm (38 mins).
CHANCE (27 mins): Rickie Lambert forces David Marshall into a diving save, bending a free-kick over the Cardiff wall from 20 yards after Cala had been judged to have fouled Adam Lallana.
Adam Lallana finds Gaston Ramirez in space on the left side of the area, with the Uruguayan's fierce left-foot shot deflecting off Steven Caulker and crashing against the bar (22 mins).
CHANCE (17 mins): Cardiff have their best effort of the game so far. Fraizer Campbell is fouled by Dejan Lovren just outside the corner of the area. Peter Whittingham takes the resulting free-kick, curling it towards the near post, with Paulo Gazzaniga punching clear. Not a convincing save, but it got the job done.
CHANCE (14 mins): Steven Davis gets slipped in down the right side by Adam Lallana's pass, but his angled shot deflects off Fabio and drifts wide of the far post.
Referee Jon Moss gets the game underway after a minute's silence was held before kick-off to mark the 25th anniversary of the Hillsborough disaster.
Apologies for the lack of updates in the build-up. We have been suffering from technical difficulties.
The Saints keepers have come out to warm-up and each of them is wearing a training top with the number nine on the back, in support of injured forward Jay Rodriguez.

We will give him all of the support he needs, and I know that the players have rallied around him this week, which is typical of the great group of players that we have here.Mauricio Pochettino
Today's match will kick-off at the later-than-normal time of 3.07pm, to mark the 25th anniversary of the Hillsborough disaster.

Catawba Island Brewing Company is set to open in May
- Written by Donna Lueke
In May Catawba Island Brewing Company will be opening at 2330 East Harbor Road. Life-long Catawba residents Mike Roder, Steve Busby, Cindy and Shad Gunderson are the minds behind what will be the Port Clinton area's only microbrewery and tasting room. The Brewmasters will be Shad Gunderson, who has been brewing for over 20 years, and Mike Roder, who has been brewing for six years. Shad and Cindy have traveled throughout the United States and Europe with an emphasis on visiting breweries in Germany, Ireland, Scotland and Belgium, sampling the finest brews and gathering experience.
Catawba Island Brewing Company will have "a nautical meets industrial look," said Roder. Cindy Gunderson added that was "in keeping with the things that define this area--the softness of the peaches and the grapes and the hardness of the rock." One of the seasonal brews will be Catawba Peach Pilsner.
Test batches are being brewed now, including the peach pilsner and an as yet unnamed Scottish ale, so that they will be ready for production as soon as the construction and licensing are completed. It is anticipated that the microbrewery will open in early May and will stay open year round, Wednesdays and Thursdays from 5 to 9 p.m., Fridays from 5 p.m. to midnight, Saturdays from noon to midnight, and Sundays from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m.
The tasting room will regularly feature four brews on tap: McFadden Red Ale, Back'er Forward Brown Ale, Couple Three Hops IPA and Pebble Beach Porter. The regular brews and other specialty brews will be available by the pint or in growlers (a jug for take-out draft beer that can hold carbonation for a week or more). Catawba Island Brewing Company will be the first in Ohio to use the high-end stainless steel Bräuler growlers.
A Founders Club will be established at the brewery, offering benefits including personal mugs and growlers and first access to new tastings.
Live music will be regularly featured at Catawba Island Brewing Company, acoustical entertainment that will maintain the living room-type atmosphere.
Complimentary snacks will be served, in classic tasting room tradition, and customers will also be able to bring their own food to the tasting room or the adjacent outdoor beer garden. The partners are also actively engaged in negations to bring a succession of food trucks from all around Ohio to provide a rotating variety of unique food items. "We want to bring the diversity of the rest of the world here, " said Roder, "so that our customers can experience many different foods without leaving town."
"We want to keep the focus on making award-winning craft beers," emphasized Shad Gunderson, and stay true to the mission of Catawba Island Brewing Company to honor and fulfill the science and the art of craft brewing.
Catawba Island Brewing Company Beers and Beverages
Flagship Beers
Back'er Forward Brown Ale
Back'er Forward Brown Ale is dark nutty brown ale with light chocolate notes covering the alcohol. She gets a smoky bitterness as she warms up in your mouth followed by caramel flavors that lead to a smooth creamy finish. Put'er in Reverse and Back'er Forward.
McFadden Red Ale
A dedication to a great friend who was taken far too soon. McFadden Red Ale is West Coast Red Ale that utilizes British Ale yeast to throw your palate for a loop. The malts and hops battle for your attention the second this beer hits your lips and it is up to you to decide who comes out on top.
Couple Three Hops IPA
Couple Three Hops IPA is a Hop forward IPA that will send your imagination floating on an inner tube in the middle of Lake Erie. At 6.4% ABV this is a beer that can be enjoyed all day. Utilizing a mixture of American and British malts and a couple three kinds of hops we have brought forward a bright piney/citrusy flavor that is unmatched on a nice sunny Catawba afternoon.
Is What It Is IPA
Someone who likes very malty beers faces a dilemma: either have a couple of great beers that will put you to sleep or have some alright beers that you can drink for a while without ever really satisfying your taste for the barley. Not any more, my friends. Your problems have been solved. Is What It Is IPA is a full-bodied, malt forward IPA without the ridiculous alcohol content you have come to live with. At 8.0% ABV you can enjoy a few with friends and stay awake to enjoy the company. The right mix of grains and extra-long boil hit your lips and hang on as the mixture of Noble Hops shine through in the back.
Lucky Stone Lager
You know that little thrill you get every time you find a lucky stone on the beach? You will get that same feeling when you find Lucky Stone Lager. This is the lager the Macro-Brewers wish they could make. With the mouth feel you have come to expect in a lager and the absence of corn and rice this is a full-bodied beer anyone could enjoy. The malts in this beer run the show while allowing a perfect hoppyness to show through. This may be the best thing you find all summer.
Pebble Beach Porter
This rich smokey porter is the dark beer fanatic's dream, brewed with a big mixture of dark grains, coffee and anise. Atop of the slightly bitter malt flavor, coffee flavors are prevalent through the beginning of your sip while the peat smoke flavor slowly takes over. A perfect companion to any campfire.
Sea Glass Stout
A dark creamy stout that is as smooth as sea glass. Crafted to leave behind the unspoken rule that a stout should taste like a triple shot of espresso. This easy drinking creamy stout is great to warm you up after a long day of ice fishing or cool you down after a long day on the beach.
Sunset Singel
Sunset Singel is an easy drinking Belgian style beer with a slight banana flavor, great for enjoying the sunset in your favorite lakefront hangout. Similar to a Belgian Tripel commonly enjoyed by the Monks who originally coined the style, but as the name suggests, much lighter and tailored to an American palette.
Specialty Beers
Catawba Peach Pilz
(Fall Seasonal)
A spicy pilsner brewed with the unmistakable Catawba Peaches you grew up with.
Intentionally Sh*#$y Lager
"I.S.L., the hot dog of beers"
We took the advice of our friends at the macro breweries and mass-brewed a beer too large for our brewery, utilized cheap improper/ingredients (like corn and rice) and spent all of our money advertising our exceptionally sh*#$y beer. Any questions?
Hop'n Mango Habanero Hefweizen
(Summer Seasonal)
Coming in at 4.7% ABV, HmH2 is a light, refreshing wheat beer. But that is where the similarities to a Hefweizen end. At the beginning of your sipping experience, you will notice a slight tingling hotness that disappears as the mango and citrus flavors take over your palette .This comes from a mix of 4 different hops added to the beer at different times and contains no mango. Your first sip of many concludes with the wheat and banana flavors that remind you that you are in fact drinking a Hefweizen.
Non-Alcoholic beverages
- Cruel Hoax Root Beer
- Barbarous Prank Ginger Beer
- Pointless Quaffing Cream Soda
- Almost an Island Bloody Mary Mix
- Schaweet and Sour Mix
- Lake Erie Tonic Water

I have a knee-jerk negative reaction to comments having reply/quote buttons because of all the abuse of the reply feature I've been subjected to in the email domain, on mailing lists & digests, where a quote is done lazily, copying everything into the quote & not just the relevant bits, followed by further quotes that become quotes of quotes of quotes nested in a big, giant scrolly mess as no one the conversation bothers to trim the chaff from their message (ask me about the guy on my neighborhood digest with the 10-line signature, including a verbose privacy disclaimer, who has it quoted & copied & nested 10-20 times a week)Yes, exactly this. Having a quote button facilitates lazy quoting.
Having to manually select the text you want to quote makes you much more conscious of exactly what you're quoting, and quoting will always be more concise that way.

Lesbians and Domestic Violence: Intimate Betrayal
By Dr. Jen
Domestic violence in the GLBTQI community happens and the rates are alarming! The issue of abuse in LGBTQI relationships has not yet been studied in Africa. Studies in the U.S., however, suggest rates of abuse are equivalent in same-sex as in heterosexual relationships. If equivalent rates occur in Africa as well, where more than 40% of women report beatings at the hands of intimate partners, then you too, dear reader, have a good chance of being in an abusive relationship.
What do we mean by domestic violence?
Domestic violence occurs when a partner / significant other, attempts to physically or psychologically dominate another. It can take the form of:
- Physical violence: hitting, punching, kicking, biting etc.
- Emotional abuse: constantly putting down, humiliating, embarrassing, frightening, threatening, etc.
- Isolating: Controlling contact with others, restricting freedom.
- Financial control: Fostering dependency, controlling money, property rights.
- "Outing" – threatening to "out" you.
Here are a three myths about domestic violence and sexual abuse in lesbian relationships
(special thanks to Katy and Pandora's Project)
Abuse doesn't occur within lesbian relationships
Studies have shown that lesbians and bisexuals in same-sex relationships experience domestic violence at a rate to that of straight women. Estimates from studies conducted in the 1990's in the U.S. indicate that between 17-45% of lesbians have been the victim of at least one act of violence perpetrated by a female partner, and that 30% of lesbians have reported sexual assault / rape by another woman.
Woman vs. woman violence is not as serious as man vs. woman
Even if two women are equal in terms of physical strength, the distribution of power within that relationship is often highly unequal. Domestic violence is about power, and when there is a power differential, there is the potential for abuse. For example:
- A partner that has more money may have power over a partner with less money because they may pay the bills, own the house etc.
- A partner who is not "out" to family and friends by be threatened with being out-ed if they don't do as they are told.
- A partner who is the "birth mother" of children may threaten to take the children away.
- Forced vaginal / anal penetration with digits or objects;
- Forced sexual touching;
- Forced oral sex.
A woman cannot really rape / sexually assault another woman

An interesting analogy between barefoot running and cycling:
For years it has been ingrained in to folk that go hill-walking that it
is *essential* to wear "stout footwear with proper ankle support", with
the latter taken to mean a high lacing cuff and the phrase really
meaning big, stiff hiking boots.
In more recent times folk have started to realise that this is a lot of
tosh, and in fact the literature on foot injuries tells you
counter-intuitive things about how and when feet get injured (like more
often in shoes than barefoot). Such people have started taking to the
hills in sandals and trainers, realising that the human foot isn't an
evolutionary misfire but is perfectly capable of looking after itself as
long as the user engages in the ancient Zen mind-trick known as "looking
where they're going".
But you tell this to the boot die-hards, and they look at the scuffs on
their dreadnoughts and say they prefer intact toes to bloody puddings on
the end of their feet, and how their boots have saved them from terrible
injury etc. etc.
I used to preach the gospel of Big Boots too, but entering a Mountain
Marathon had a curative effect. All these people doing this regularly,
faster and over rougher terrain than I usually do, and hardly a pair of
boots in sight, perhaps they know something I've not been accepting?
c.f. cycling trip in Amsterdam and helmets…
This analogy is from by Peter Clinch, from Dundee, Scotland.
I love this part:
the ancient Zen mind-trick known as "looking where they're going"
This highlights the difference in philosophy between the two groups. One trusts the capabilities of the body, prefers less equipment, and takes responsibility for being cautious enough to avoid injuries. The other relies on technology to compensate for higher risk taking.
The belief in the "protection" provided by shoes is not much different from the belief in the "protection" provided by cycling helmets:
- Both appear to "protect", even though they can result in increased injuries.
- Both seem so "obvious" than few people question them.
- Both are harmful in ways that are counter-intuitive.
- Both have their strong advocates who show a religious faith in them.
- Both tend to induce a false sense of safety, resulting in increasing risk taking and increased injuries.
In cycling, as the shoulders are much wider than the head, most falls do not result in the head touching the ground. Should it happen, the scalp makes the head slide, reducing friction and rotation. This reduces the risk of brain injury through rotational acceleration. However, with a helmet, the larger volume of the head makes it more likely for the head to hit the ground. If it does, the polystyrene helmet tends to stick to the road and generate high rotational acceleration, increasing the risk of serious brain injury.
Is this really "protection"?
We can so easily be fooled into accepting "protective" equipment that is not necessary, and can even be harmful. After the helmet law was introduced in Australia, the risk of accidents more than tripled. Helmet manufacturers have been a big influence in pushing for helmet legislation, funding favorable "studies" and inducing fear through fearmongering advertising. It takes independent thinking to escape such insidious influence.
Next time somebody tries to sell you "safety" equipment, do not blindly accept it.
Check that the risks warrant additional equipment.
Ask whether the "safety" equipment could be doing more harm than good.

WAUSAU, WI (WTAQ) - Wisconsin hunters might shoot fewer grey wolves this fall.
At a meeting in Wausau Monday, the state's Wolf Advisory Committee recommended a net harvest of 156 wolves -- down from 251 last year.
DNR carnivore specialist Dave MacFarland said the proposed harvest is designed to reduce the state's overall wolf population, but not by as much as this past year.
Officials said Wisconsin had 638 to 667 wolves at the end of this winter. That's down 19 percent from a year ago, but still much higher than the state's original management goal of 350.
The proposed new quota is only advisory. DNR staffers will make a final recommendation to the Natural Resources Board, which will have the last say.
This will be Wisconsin's third wolf hunt, since the Obama administration last removed Upper Midwest grey wolves from the federal endangered species list.
Wisconsin's Indian tribes consider wolves to be sacred -- and they urged the panel Monday to scrap the wolf hunt altogether.
An official of the Wisconsin Bear Hunters Association says the proposed harvest should be 300 -- almost twice what was recommended.

Extrovert vs. Introvert
There is this common misconception about the natural behaviour of extroverts and introverts; extroverts are often times characterized as being lively and talkative, while introverts are naturally quiet and withdrawn.
This isn't true. It's correct that when you meet someone shy and quiet they will more likely be and introvert than an extrovert; however, this doesn't mean that introverts are naturally shy, or that shy people always have to be introverts. On the contrary, introverts can be very talkative and discuss for hours on end about topics that interest them.
The actual definition of an Introvert is someone who draws energy from being alone with their thoughts, while Extroverts draw their energy from being with others.
Introverts are people can who draw energy from being alone with their thoughts. They enjoy, and sometimes even need, a deep conversation with people they trust; they don't like small talk, or rather often don't see the point in it. But after a while they will feel the need to be alone again, to recharge and sort out things on their own.
Extroverts on the other hand, are people who draw their energy from being with others. They can enjoy being alone with their ideas and dreams just as an introverts can enjoy being around people, yet after a while they will feel the need to interact with others to fill up their energy.
Exactly. I've always considered myself an introvert despite being outgoing in social settings.
This is one of the reasons I consider myself to be an introvert. I can be really outgoing (even completely obnoxious, actually) around people I know or when it comes to subjects that I love or that get me fired up, but for the most part I'm an introvert and that 'recharging' alone time is absolutely crucial for me. That also probably has something to do with social anxiety, but still, I feel like it's as much my personality as it is anxiety-related.

Chris King Road Bottom Bracket - SRAM $155.00
What more could you want from the centerpiece of your bike?
Ever since Chris King unveiled their bottom bracket, Shimano riders have reveled in having the King name adorn their drivetrains. This SRAM compatible version allows the Chris King Road Bottom Bracket to be used on all SRAM GXP, Truvativ GXP, and Bontrager GXP cranksets with a stepped 24mm axle. King's bottom bracket was a long time coming, and as expected it upholds the unparalleled quality standard that Chris King established a long time ago with his headsets.
The aluminum cups of the Chris King Road Bottom Bracket house 24 stainless steel balls in each of the made-in-house cartridge bearings. They are user serviceable with the Chris King Grease Injection Tool (available separately). Simply squirt fresh grease into the bearings to purge the gunky, used grease and keep things spinning smoothly. This system has a fringe benefit for racers -- it gives you the option of running a very thin grease or even oil on race day in order to minimize bearing drag. And when you're not racing, it's a snap to inject thicker grease to maximize durability
The Chris King SRAM Road Bottom Bracket is available in Black and Red. This SRAM version does NOT come with cup spacers and is designed to thread directly into a 68mm shell without them.
Two final technical notes: (1) The Chris King Bottom Bracket is available in English threading (aka 68mm) ONLY. It is not available for Italian threads. No, there is no way to rig it to work for Italian BB shells. Sorry. (2) It is NOT compatible with mountain cranksets due to one critical issue -- the thickness of the external portion of the cups is different between road and mountain. We offer a very-similar-yet-different Chris King SRAM compatible bottom bracket for mountain bikes. Please note that while the cups can be installed with a Shimano bottom bracket tool, Chris King strongly recommends using its cup tool, as the splines on the bottom bracket are proprietary.

Really dig how the BB bearings are serviceable with the injector tool; which works with the Speedplay grease gun's Zerk adaptor. Also like how you can change the type of bearing grease used. Have had this BB for 2 years now without a problem, and hope that the streak lasts at least another two.

Joanne van Selm and Eleni Tsokalis of MPI look at the challenges ahead as 10 new states join the European Union.
Countries in the European Union received fewer asylum applications in 2003, according to Veysel Oezcan of the Social Science Research Center Berlin.
The number of ethnic Germans born abroad who immigrated to their ancestral homeland in 2003 was much lower than the previous year, reports Veysel Oezcan of Humboldt University Berlin.
Research by Marco Martiniello of the University of Liege and Andrea Rea of the Free University of Brussels casts light on how and why unauthorized immigrants arrive and stay in Belgium.
A new law passed by Austria could make it more difficult to seek asylum in Austria, according to Veysel Oezcan of Humboldt University Berlin.
This report examines the political context surrounding the 2007 French presidential election as it relates to immigration. It provides an overview of immigration to France and highlights notable demographic trends since 2000.
This report draws from the existing body of knowledge surrounding circular migration to identify: research gaps, shortcomings of common policy routes, innovative circular migration policies, and critical considerations for policymakers seeking to design and implement positive circular migration schemes.
Previously confined to everyday conversations among migrants and their families, remittances are now on the minds of most governments, members of civil society, the international community, and, to some extent, the private sector. The continued deficiency in our understanding of some of the fundamental aspects of remittances is evident in current literature.
For an increasing number of scholars, international migration has undergone a transformation particularly in the last decade or so. Although circular migration's impact on development is far from settled, a review of the current literature suggests increasing optimism about its developmental potential.
In this volume, the Migration Policy Institute has gathered some of the leading European thinkers to offer insightful counsel and, wherever possible, solutions to Europe's immigration challenges.
This report seeks to bring new light to the issues of migration by sea—particularly the interception and rescue of "boat people"—by synthesizing key discussion takeaways from an international forum of policymakers, international organizations, NGO representatives, and academics.
This book analyzes approaches, strategies, and best practices from EU Member States that could contribute to a sustainable integration policy. It thus provides European, national, regional, and local decisionmakers with instruments they can draw on in establishing a framework for integration.
This policy brief explores the often neglected migration management potential of "regularization" or "legalization" programs, arguing that properly conceived and carefully executed "earned" regularization programs can not only prevent the number and flow of unauthorized migrants from building to unacceptable levels, but can also set the stage for smarter use of enforcement resources and improvements in labor market and social policy development.

A gem
This hous is a gem. Well designed, clean and tastefully furnitured. We stayed here as a family for one week to prepare the student exchange of our daughter. The house is spatious enough for four, the kitchen well equipped (with MIELE white ware), the IKEA beds and linnen help for a good sleep. The parking lot beside the house is very comfortable. Due to our late night arrival we had asked the owners to suggest a cafe near by for breakfast. Instead they filled the fridge with everything we needed for a good start. Thank you Alan and Yvonne.
One lovely little coach house!
My contact with the owner was wonderful and very helpful. The owner provided very good customer service. We had everything we needed plus more upon arrival. The house was great for our large group, especially for our children who enjoyed the backyard and trampoline. Everything was clean and neat and in good condition. The location was excellent and close to many things. We were very happy with our stay, would recommend to others and stay there again ourselves in the future. We will definitely do a vacation rental again as it's much better than being in a hotel when travelling with a family.
Excellent Garden Apartment
Bob, Toni, and Pepe were delightful hosts! They were very helpful with suggestions about the area, and ideas of things to do. The apartment was beautiful and well equipped with things you may need(e.g. can openers, bottle openers, knives, linens). It is bright and cheery with an excellent view of Toni's garden out the back of the apartment. My 2yr old was welcomed and loved getting to know Miss Toni. She asks daily if it is time to go back and play at Miss Toni's house. Overall it was our best vacation rental yet, and an extremely positive experience.

Nancy Grace and pro hoofer Tristan MacManus barely made it through a single "Dancing With the Stars" rehearsal without fighting over who was in charge. Their constant back-and-forth prompted host Tom Bergeron to dub the duo "The Bickersons." But don't let the fights fool you. An open letter from Grace proves the pair shared a bond.
Almost a week after Grace got what some might consider an overdue ballroom boot, the prosecutor-turned-TV-host published a parting note about her "Dancing" experience on People.com.
"This has truly been an extraordinary journey that I will cherish forever," Grace wrote. "I am so proud of what we accomplished and how far we came. But I really cannot take the credit. It has been all Tristan from the get-go."
After praising her partner in the intro, Grace went on to thank her fans for their support and to mention the friends she made on the show, both on-camera and off. But she soon came back around to the pro who made his competitive "Dancing With the Stars" debut this season.
"Most of all, thanks to Tristan MacManus," she continued. "I don't know if you will ever read this, but you, not me, are the 'star;' I'm sure the world saw that every night we danced on air."
After watching their weekly arguments, are you surprised to learn how much respect Grace has for MacManus? Do you think the feeling is mutual? Share your thoughts on our Facebook page.

In a rough sport, Elisha Shaw is big, and fast, and disciplined. Football taught him that. He says, "I had hard times that I had to get through. Hard games I had to get through, hard practices I had to get through."
In the Fall of 2012, the Tucker High defensive tackle exploded onto the Georgia high school football scene.
The University of Alabama was the first to come calling, and Shaw made up his mind, that's where he wanted to go.
But, that's when it happened. Tucker football team physician and Emory Sports Medicine's orthopedic surgeon Dr. Amadeus Mason says Elisha and the team were running through preseason drills. No one knew anything was wrong. But Dr. Mason says they know, "he was playing with the issues that were there before, and he was a time bomb waiting to explode."
Dr. Mason says he was lined up, trying to block and offensive player, who was trying to break his block. He says, "Elisha was not ready for the play to start, and the person hit him. Hit him on the side of his neck. It seemed very innocuous,"
But Elisha, whose only injury to this point had been a jammed finger, complained of neck pain. So, the Emory Sports Medicine team wanted to find out why, ordering a CT scan, and x-ray and an MRI. That's when they saw it. Elisha had a congenital curvature in his neck, and a previous injury, meaning he probably should never have been playing contact sports. But there was also something much more troubling. Right up at the top of his spine, where his spinal cord meets his brain, a ligament that stabilizes the spinal cord was torn open.
Dr. Mason says, "There was no longer anything holding the spine together, and if the spinal cord is coming down there, and you're not holding the spine, that's paralysis. And at the level just below the brain, you don't survive that." In other words, one more hit could have killed the younger play. Dr. Mason says, "When you don't have that ligament there, you're like a bobble-head, and the spinal can be severed instantaneously."
That's when doctors had to tell Elisha: no more contact sports, no more football. He says, "I didn't believe it. I still don't believe it. It's just something that, I guess, I just have to deal with, and just be smart with it."
Dr. Mason says football is a rough sport, and he doesn't feel Elisha's injury could have been prevented. But, he credits the Tucker schools trainers and Emory Sports Medicine with catching the underlying problem before Elisha could get hit again. This Summer, Shaw will undergo surgery to stabilize his spine.
He never gave up his dream of going to Alabama. In February, on signing day, the Crimson Tide came through for him. The school offered Shaw A four year "medical" scholarship. He won't play for Alabama, but he hopes to help on the sidelines, and learn from coach Nick Saban and his staff. He says, "The coaches, I have respect for them, they have respect for me, so they just took care of me."
One day, Elisha Shaw hopes to become a football coach, just like the men who mentored him.

Hitchcock is the new movie about the real life Alfred Hitchcock and the making of his most famous movie, Psycho. The movie is based on Stephen Rebello's 1998 non-fiction book "Alfred Hitchcock and the Making of Psycho". Sir Anthony Hopkins stars as the "Master of Suspense" Alfred Hitchcock and Helen Mirren plays his wife, Alma Reville. Scarlett Johansson and Jessica Biel co-star.
The movie serves as a behind the scenes look at the discovery and creation of Psycho. Hitchcock begins at the premiere of the Alfred's latest film "North by Northwest", where he is basking in the limelight and getting all the praise and glory while Alma is hiding in the shadows. Never being fully satisfied, Alfred begins researching for his next project almost immediately. We get to see Alfred's insecurities when he's not in front of the camera or the media. He is struggling with getting older and feels the need for acceptance and appreciation more than ever. This is when he stumbles upon the book, Psycho, which is based on the true story of serial killer Ed Gein. Alfred is mesmerized with the terrifying appeal and knows this will be his next project. He wants to push the limits and be challenged again and the answer is a true horror story, although no one else seems to think it's a good idea. From here, we see the challenges in getting this film made and the strains put on Alfred and Alma's relationship.
This movie is so much more than just the making of Psycho. The real story at play is Alfred and Alma's relationship and the struggles they are going through at this stage in their lives. Mirren is excellent as always, but the star of the show is definitely Hopkins. If you can get past the rubber prosthetic mask he wears, he literally transforms into Alfred Hitchcock. I wouldn't be surprised to hear either one of their names mentioned come awards season. This is a fun and entertaining movie, but the one thing that I struggled with was how I kept thinking that it felt like a Lifetime movie. I know that's not a good thing when you're paying $10, but in fairness, the story and acting are both very good. Almost everyone is familiar with the movie Psycho and it is fun to see what went into the making of the movie and also to see what kind of a man Alfred Hitchcock really was. I really enjoyed this movie and would definitely recommend it, but I wouldn't say it is a must see in theaters.
