On the Market / A super-sized Cape Cod in Darien
DARIEN — The Cape Cod house is one of New England's most significant contributions to American culture, according to the website www.pilgrimhallmuseum.org. "This traditional, vernacular house style was built all over New England for more than 250 years, and spread across the country in the 1940s and 1950s to become one of America's favorite house styles, the website said.
It goes on to say that the house style got its name in 1800 from the Reverend Timothy Dwight, president of Yale University and minister of Greenfield Hill Congregational Church in Fairfield, in his book, Travels in New England and New York. Another website mentions the diminutive size of the Cape Cod, usually about 1,000 to 2,000 square feet.
In the Tokeneke Association the gray Cape Cod at 8 Homewood Lane looks, at first glance, to be a small house. Looks can be deceiving. Travel down its wide bluestone path to the covered front porch and through the front door and see that this residence is considerably larger than early Capes. This house has nine rooms and 5,316 square feet of living space. It also has numerous amenities for living and entertaining, and refinements not found in such houses centuries and even decades ago.
The house was built in 1972 and was updated to accommodate modern living. It is set back from the road and sits in a very private setting on a 1.33-acre level property at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac. A dense stand of mature trees protects the privacy, which is further augmented by the fact that no one can build on the property directly behind this house. The beautifully landscaped backyard features an in-ground swimming pool with a wood deck around it. Sliding doors from several rooms lead to the large bluestone patio, pool, and yard.
From the two-story foyer there is access into the formal dining room straight ahead and the formal living room to the right with French doors into both rooms. In the dining room there is an over-sized double-sided fireplace. One part of the living room has a wet bar and two walls of built-in shelving. Step down into the second section, which has the other side of the dining room fireplace and sliding doors to the patio.
The gourmet kitchen features a center island, high-end appliances including a Sub-Zero refrigerator, generous counter space, eat-in area, and a step down into the family room where there is a vaulted ceiling, fireplace, and sliding doors to the patio.
There are three bedrooms on this main living level. The master suite has a tall vaulted ceiling, sliding doors to a private deck and the yard, a large walk-in closet, and a luxurious bath with a radiant heated floor, jetted tub, large shower, and two separate vanities. The two other en suite bedrooms are also generous in size and one has a built-in desk area and window seat with storage underneath it.
STYLE: Cape Cod
ADDRESS: 8 Homewood Lane
FEATURES: water community, 1.33-acre level property, located on a cul-de-sac, in-law or au pair suite, in-ground swimming pool, terrace, deck, sprinkler system, wet bar, covered front porch, programmable thermostat, zoned heat, three fireplaces, circular driveway, walking distance to Tokeneke Park and Long Island Sound, neighborhood association, two-car attached garage, partially finished basement, four bedrooms, four full and one half baths
SCHOOLS: Tokeneke Elementary, Middlesex Middle, Darien High School
MILL RATE: 16.08 mills
HOA FEE: $1,089 (annually)
On the second floor there is another en suite bedroom that is large enough to serve as the master instead of the one on the first floor. It could also be an in-law or au pair suite. The wide landing features loft space with two offices or homework stations including built-in desks, counters, drawers and cabinets.
In addition to the relaxing backyard there are nature trails near the house, which is also just a short walk from Long Island Sound only about a half mile away. The Tokeneke Association contains seven miles of private roads.

In this paper supercritical fluid extraction with carbon dioxide at different pressure was investigated and the total yield of the extract was measured. With increasing pressure from 80 to 300 bar extraction yield was increasing. It was due to the fact that supercritical carbon dioxide density increases by increasing pressures. Qualitative and quantitative analyses obtained extracts and essential oils obtained from these extracts were done using GC/MS and GC/FID analyses. Also, investigation of the extraction kinetics in the function of pressure (80, 100 and 200 bar), where every point of kinetic curve with new sample of drug in extractor was obtained is performed. The highest extract yield was obtained at pressure 200bar (4.17g/100g drug). At the end of the extraction process, CO2 – extract has been removed, and content of residual essential oil in the drug was determined. Essential oil content in drug after supercritical extraction was the highest at pressure 80 bar.

|With increasing public interest in herbal medicine and natural products, the conventional methods such as hydrodistillation and solvent extraction were found unsatisfactory. The distillation procedure allows only the separation of volatile compounds (essential oils), which, to a greater or lesser extent, are transformed under the influence of the elevated temperature. On the other hand, extraction with organic solvents can hardly render an extract free of traces of the organic solvent, which are undesirable for either organoleptic and/or health reasons. Besides, organic solvents are insufficiently selective, so that, in addition to the active substances, they also dissolve some concomitant compounds. An alternative extraction technique with better efficiency and selectivity is highly require, in order to eliminate solvents, avoid the degradation or loss of sensitive and thermo-labile substances and to decrease the high energy and manpower input of conventional processes[1, 2]. To improve efficiency and selectivity of the extraction, alternative extraction techniques as supercritical extraction started to be developed.
|The broad interest in supercritical CO2 extraction (SFE) of essential oils is proved by large number of scientific literature published on this argument. These studies were undertaken in view of a possible industrial application of the process.
|Supercritical extraction is not widely used yet, but as new technologies are coming there are more and more viewpoints that could justify it, as high purity, residual solvent content and environment protection[1, 3].The use of supercritical fluids (SCF) as reaction or separation media offers the opportunity to replace conventional organic solvents and also to optimize and potentially control the effects that solvent properties can have on selectivity[2]. Carbon dioxide is most widely used in SFE because it is simple to use, inexpensive, non-flammable, nontoxic, chemically stable, shows great affinity to volatile (lipophilic) compounds, and can be easily and completely removed from any extract[2, 4, 5]. By changing pressure and /or temperature above critical point of carbon dioxide (Tc = 31.3°C, Pc = 72.8 bar) apronounced change in the density and dielectric constant, i.e. solvent power of supercritical carbon dioxide can be achieved.
|The special properties of supercritical fluids bring certain advantages to chemical separation processes. Several applications have been fully developed and commercialized[6, 7]. The biggest application is the decoffeinization of tea and coffee. A process for removal of caffeine from coffee using supercritical carbon dioxide was patented in the United States in 1974, and a commercial plant went on stream in the FRG in 1978. Other important areas are the extraction of essential oils and aroma materials from spices. Brewery industry uses SFE for the extraction of hop. The method is used in extracting some edible oils and producing cholesterine-free egg powder.
|Mathematical modelling of supercritical extraction of sage oil investigated from E. Reverchon [8]. Some authors have attemped to describe the evolution of the extraction process by using empirical kinetic equations [9, 10]. Other authors have proposed models based on differential mass balances along the extraction bed. To integrate the differential equations these models require information on the mass – transfer mechanism that characterizes the extraction process and data on the equilibrium relationship [11, 12].
|In this paper, SFE of essential oil from sage (Salvia officinalis L.) was investigated.
|For this experiments Salvia officinalis L. from Berkovici, near Trebinje gathered 2013 was used.
|Commercial carbon dioxide (99% purity, Tehno–gas, Novi Sad, Serbia) as the extracting agent was used. All other chemicals were of analytical reagent grade.
|SFE by CO2 was carried out with a laboratory – scale high – pressure extraction plant (NOVA – Swiss, Effretikon, Switzerland). The main parts and characteristics (manufacturer specification) of the plant were as follows: a diaphragm – type compressor (up to 1000 bar), extractor with an internal volume of 200 mL (Pmax = 250bar), and maximum CO2 mass flow rate of approximately 5.7 kg/h. The mass of Salvia officinalis sample in extractor was 60g at the investigated value of pressure and temperature 40ºC, CO2 flow rate was 97.72 dm3/h. Separator conditions were pressure 15 bar and temperature 25ºC.
|Supercritical fluid extraction (SFE) of Salvia officinalis L. by carbon dioxide was investigated in order to obtain the best conditions. Experiments were performed at different pressure and all other extraction conditions were same (Table 1).
|In order to prevent thermal decomposition of some volatile oil compounds, the temperature of supercritical fluid extraction of 40°C was selected. The pressure range of 80 – 300 bar (a pronounced change in the density and dielectric constant, i.e. solubility power of carbon dioxide) for SFE of Salvia officinalis L. was investigated. The selections of the pressures ranges are based on the fact that a great change in the density and dielectric constant of CO2 occurs between pressure 80 and 150 bar. Investigations of extraction kinetics of sage in the function of pressure are obtained results which were shown in the Fig. 1.
|Results showed that increasing pressure from 80 to 300 bar enhanced the extraction yield, which was due to the increased SCCO2 density at higher pressures. Also extract obtained at pressure 80 bar has the highest content of essential oil (58.79%), while the contents in other extracts were from 29.90 to 47.87%.
|CO2 extracts and essential oils obtained from CO2 extracts were detailed identification and quantification using GC/MS and GC/FID analyses. The results of qualitative and quantitative analyses were given in table 3 and table 4.
|It can be seen from table γ that the extracts obtained at pressure 150 and β00 bar consists – thujone while other extracts does not consists it. Dominant components are phyllocladene, – elemene, isoborneole, selina – 3,7 (11) diene, camphor, 1,11 – epoxyhumulene. In extract component contents varying in the function of pressure. Content of phyllocladene in extract obtained at presurep = 80 bar is 10.42%, while in other extracts is from 21.99 to 30.64%. At the pressure p = 80bar content of camphor is least (1.43%), at other pressures it is from 11.37 to 15.24%. Extract obtained at pressure p = 80bar, contents – elemene 24.98%, while in other extracts content is from 7.02 to 9.73%. Also, we have seen that the extract obtained at pressure p = 80bar contents a lot of 1,11 – epoxyhumulene (8.99%), in other extracts (4.56 – 5.87%). Content of selina 3,7 (11) diene is approximately equal in all obtained extracts (11.25 - 13.83%).
|Qualitative contents of essential oils obtained from CO2 extracts at pressure 80, 100, 150 and 200 bar) is same, while essential oil obtained at pressure γ00 bar is different. This essential oil has not – pinen. All essential oils have similar quantitative contents in regard dominated components. Dominated component are: α – thujone, camphor, isoborneole, – elemene. From results shown in table 4, we can conclude that investigated essential oils content α – thujone (15.63 – 27.38%) in high percentage. Also, essential oil from extract obtained at pressure 300 bar there is phyllocladene in high percentage (23.37%). In other essential oils there is phyllocladene from 4.19 to 6.90%. In essential oil from extract obtained at pressure 80 bar content of – elemene is the highest (15.52%), and in other essential oils are (7.46 – 9.86%). Camphor content is similar in all essential oils (16.03 – 23.45%). In continue of investigation, the extraction of kinetics in the function of pressure (80, 100 and 200 bar) was performed. Now every point of kinetic curve was obtained with new sample of drug in extractor. Results of investigation of kinetics extraction are shown on the Fig 2.
|Content of essential oil in residual drug which firstly extracted by carbon dioxide at pressure p = 80 bar is from 0.2 to 0.66% and it is significant amount in regard to drug extracted on pressure p = 100bar (0.04%) and pressure p = 200 bar (0.02%).
|From results (table 5 and 6) we can see that extract yield of sage is increasing and essential oil content is decreasing at defined pressure during the extraction of sage. The essential oil content is decreasing with the time because the extract yield is increasing with the time.
|The solubility of investigated sage is equal to their yield. So it could be concluded that sage solubility increase by increasing of carbon dioxide pressure, i.e. density or solubility power of extragent. According to the results of this investigation, SFE offered more choices (pressures level) for the extraction of different components.

Tying Scarves
History of Scarves
Books about Scarves - Overview
Considering that pretty much every woman has at least two or three scarves in her closet (and many of us have considerably more!), there are surprisingly few books available on how to wear scarves, scarf history, and the designers who are famous for producing scarves.
Most 'how to wear scarves' books date back to the 1980s or early 90s, and while many of the styles featured are fine, the photos can be painfully dated!
Most general fashion and costume books cover scarves in a single page (if they mention them at all), however I have come across two good books devoted solely to scarves. Both are well worth getting hold of (see below). And as for books on scarf history, well there are a number of books on shawls (and Kashmir and paisley shawls in particularly) but very few indeed on the silk square, the icon of the 20th century.
There are richer pickings for those of us who want books on how to make our own scarves - be they knitted, crocheted, felted or simply sewn. In addition, there are some great books on embellishing and adapting scarves we already have. Another area covered by numerous books is wrapping gifts with scarves - inspired by the Japanese and Korean traditions of using scarves and cloths for wrapping and carrying.
So, here are my lists of all the scarf books I've found so far - some of them with reviews (over time I'm hoping to add reviews for all of them):

Fox Plaza is a 34-story, 493-foot (150 m) skyscraper in Century City, Los Angeles, California.[5] It is owned by the Orange County-based Irvine Company.[6]
Completed in 1987, the building's architects were Scott Johnson, Bill Fain, and William L. Pereira.[7] Fox Plaza is the last building that William Pereira worked on before his death in 1985 and he did not live to see it open.[citation needed]
Former US President Ronald Reagan had his offices on the 34th floor of the building for several years after leaving public office.[8] The 34th floor is now occupied by 20th Century Studios.[9]
Filming location
In a 2018 tour for Variety, the chief engineer of the building noted how the Fox Plaza has a large number of redundancies in its design, and he speculates that it's because it was intended as a filming location.[10]
The building has been featured in at least four major motion pictures released by Fox. In the film Die Hard it was portrayed as the fictional Nakatomi Plaza, a building owned by a fictional Japanese conglomerate. The film entails the building being taken by renegade terrorists intending to steal bearer bonds in the company vault and destroy the building, with the waylaid New York City Police Department officer John McClane working to foil them.[10] Almost the entire film was shot in the plaza, aside from a few scenes showing a Christmas party.[10] The damaged version of the tower was made via a scale model special effect.
The plaza and a neighboring building are the main setting for the rock & roll comedy Airheads.[citation needed] Fox Plaza was also one of the buildings brought down at the end of Fight Club.[citation needed] The building is also used for the corporate offices of Chimera Gas in the surrealistic road movie Motorama and is also portrayed as the headquarters for Spencer Publications on the soap opera The Bold and the Beautiful.[citation needed] The building plays an important role in the Brooklyn Nine-Nine episode "99," in which detective Jake Peralta insists on visiting the building due to its role in Die Hard and causes his squad to miss their return flight to New York City.[11]
The exterior of the building was used in the 1987 Charlie Sheen film No Man's Land, in the 2001 episode of The X-Files, "Essence", and in the 1989 film Lethal Weapon 2.[citation needed]

Man, who says that you can't teach an old dog new tricks. The recording industry was torpedoed around the turn of the millennium because it CHOSE not to deliver what its consumers were asking for. Consumers asked for a cheap and easy way to download music. When the recording industry turned up its nose, the market delivered a solution: Napster. When a legal solution was finally made popular by Apple years later, the genie was already out of the bottle. The music industry is now in free-fall having missed its opportunity to course-correct.
Over the last couple of years, Hollywood has been feeling some of the same market pressures. As mobile devices have become more popular and laptop prices have fallen, consumers have increasingly demanded a cheap and easy way to watch TV online, and on-demand. Until now, broadcatching via usenet or bittorrent has been the only option. An illegal option, I might add. But one that has become increasingly easy using programs like Vuze and T.E.D.
But just when it looked like Hollywood was about to be Napsterized, along came Hulu. If you've never visited, take a peek today. It's a service that streams current TV shows (as well as a surprisingly wide selection of movies!) in full-screen 480p resolution, with only 1/3 of the ads that you would see on television. It's as easy as finding the show you want to watch, clicking on it, and reclining...
Today, I discovered something unprecedented. Hulu has the live, streaming presidential debate. Yes, I said live. By the way, I don't care who you support, but you should educate yourself about the issues. Apathy is the greatest destructive force of a democracy.

For an up to date seven day forecast for Edinburgh go here
Each August for three weeks the city of Edinburgh, Scotland's capital, welcomes an explosion of creative vitality from all around the world
The Edinburgh Fringe Festival is among the biggest celebration of arts and culture on the planet.
The Edinburgh Fringe Festival (sometimes just called The Fringe) is the world's largest arts event, which in 2019 spans 25 days and features more than 55,000 performances of 3,548 different exhibits in over 300 venues. Established in 1947 as a substitute for the Edinburgh International Festival, it takes place yearly in Edinburgh, Scotland, within the month of August.
It's an open access (or "unjuried") performing arts event, which means that anybody can take part. The official Fringe Programme categorises shows into sections for theatre, comedy, dance, physical theatre, circus, cabaret, children's shows, musicals, opera, music, spoken word, exhibitions and events. Comedy is the biggest part, making up over one-third of the programme and the one which has the best public profile, due partly to the Edinburgh Comedy Awards.
Fringe venues are available all styles and sizes, with use being fabricated from practically any viable area that's accessible, from common theatres (e.g. the Traverse or Bedlam Theatre), performance rooms (e.g. the Assembly Rooms), church buildings and church halls (e.g. the Quaker Meeting House, Paradise in Augustines), lecture theatres (together with the notable George Square Theatre), convention centres, different college rooms and areas, bars and pubs, non permanent buildings (The Famous Spiegeltent and the Udderbelly), colleges, a public rest room, the again of a taxi, a double-decker bus and even within the viewers's personal properties.
The teams that operate the venues are numerous: some are business and others not-for-profit; some function year-round, whereas others exist solely to run venues on the Fringe. Some are native, others are primarily based in London and elsewhere and switch to Edinburgh for August.
From the performers' perspective, the choice on the place to carry out is often primarily based on a mix of price, location (proximity to the primary Fringe hubs is seen as a bonus), and the philosophy of the venue – a few of whom concentrate on beginner, faculty or school productions, a few of whom are semi or wholly skilled.
The primary venue operators can broadly be cut up into 4 teams:
The Big 4 – Assembly, Gilded Balloon, The Pleasance, Underbelly. These are the biggest venue operators by turnover and reputation, and in lots of instances probably the most long-standing. They have a tendency to concentrate on comedy, and in 2008, they briefly and controversially tried to re-brand themselves as Edinburgh Comedy Festival.
Different paid venues – Apart from the Big 4, there are a selection of mid-scale operators operating multi-room venues, and generally working throughout multiple locations. These embody theSpaceUK, C venues, Greenside Venues, Sweet Venues, Just the Tonic, ZOO venues and Paradise Inexperienced. They might concentrate on genres (comedy at Simply the Tonic, theatre at Greenside Venues) or run a programme throughout all genres.
Free venues – As an alternative of charging performers to rent the room, and audiences to attend, they make their areas accessible at no cost, with audiences making a donation if they've loved the show. These promoters are more likely to operate out of pubs and clubs – the rooms being made free as an approach to boost bar takings.
Pay What You Need – In 2013 comic Bob Slayer launched a brand new model to the Fringe, at his Heroes of Fringe venues, the place the audience might 'Purchase a ticket upfront to ensure a seat or Pay What You Need (PWYW) on exit'. The model is a mix of Paid and Free and allows performers to find paying viewers with out risking giant advertising and marketing spend.

Period drama the Favourite stars Emma Stone, Rachel Weisz and Olivia Colman has released an official trailer.
Early 18th century. England is at war with the French. Nevertheless, duck racing and pineapple eating are thriving. A frail Queen Anne (Olivia Colman) occupies the throne and her close friend Lady Sarah (Rachel Weisz) governs the country in her stead while tending to Anne's ill health and mercurial temper. When a new servant Abigail (Emma Stone) arrives, her charm endears her to Sarah.
Sarah takes Abigail under her wing and Abigail sees a chance at a return to her aristocratic roots. As the politics of war become quite time consuming for Sarah, Abigail steps into the breach to fill in as the Queen's companion. Their burgeoning friendship gives her a chance to fulfil her ambitions and she will not let woman, man, politics or rabbit stand in her way.
Check out the official trailer below.
The Favourite is from Greek director Yorgos Lanthimos, whose recent work includes The Lobster (an Oscar nominee for Best Original Screenplay in 2017) and The Killing of a Sacred Deer. With a U.S. release planned for November 23, the film is set to continue its festival run by opening the New York fest on September 28.

I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Boots (New York, NY (US)) in February 2018.
HOWEVER, the meeting with the hiring manager was horrible. As a hiring manager myself, I have interviewed many people and understand you can have an off day, be incredibly stressed, or not be interested in a candidate. Throughout the entire meeting she never smiled, not even when she greeted me. Her vibe conveyed the fact there are major internal issues, or she hates working there. Typically, an interview consists of questions and a back-and-forth conversation. She went on a :30 rant about how much she is doing, was slouched down in the chair and did not convey any excitement for the company. I thought is she going to stop talking and ask me anything? I still have respect for the company, but a weak link exists in leadership.

First was called and pre screened then called right back to set up interview as the hiring manager was traveling here. Then was interviewed by her boss a week later at a hotel and had to pay for the parking.

I applied online. The process took 5 days. I interviewed at Boots (New York, NY (US)) in May 2015.
I arrived 10 minutes early and the assistant manager saw me right away (the manager was on holiday so couldn't conduct the interviews themselves), however she wasn't fully aware of when I had booked my interview slot..!
She firstly told me a bit about the position, asked me to tell her a bit about myself and what experience is previously had. This was the extent of the questions!
We then went on to the shop floor where she asked me to find the cheapest box of paracetamol there was, and to say what I would do to tidy up a shelf.
From there we then went over to the No7 counter where I had chosen the face wipes to talk about and sell to a customer.
We then went in to the back room and I explained that I would have to return to university in September which I knew would affect my chances, and she kindly told me that they were probably looking for someone who was going to be with them for a longer period of time, which was completely understandable, but she would see what she could do when deciding with the manager.

I applied in-person. The process took 1+ week. I interviewed at Boots.
I applied online and within a week got an email asking me to select a time and date to come in for an interview! I chose Friday morning! Also in the email they said to dress smart, and have a favorite product from boots in my mind.
When I got there I went straight to the back to the pharmacy and the lady there called for the manager who was very sweet and nice (later when I worked there I found out she was quite the opposite) she asked typical questions such as tell me a time you have shown leadership skills, a time when you have worked well in a team! She asked about my availability and why I wanted to work for boots and my careers goals! She asked some situational questions regarding angry customers, and answered the obvious to always be polite and courteous! Then we went to the shop floor where I had to find and 'sell' my favourite product to her. She also gave me some hand lotion and asked me to approach customers to try out the lotion! After that I left and I got a call at 6pm that evening to say I had the job and I would start the following week and to expect a letter in mail giving me all the details. The following week I went to orientation where I sat in a room with 10 or so others filling out paper work, getting uniforms and then did some training in the cash registers! The following day was my first day of work and I spent most day learning how to use the registers!

A nonprofit organization that serves children with cancer was denied the opportunity to develop a camp in Idaho.
The Idaho Mountain Express reports the Blaine County Board of Commissioners on Tuesday denied Camp Rainbow Gold's appeal to develop a camp for children with cancer, upholding a Planning and Zoning Commission decision from April.
Lawyers from both sides — Camp Rainbow Gold, and the Concerned Citizens of the Wood River Valley, an opposition group — argued before the board at the Old County Courthouse in Hailey.
The Boise-based Camp Rainbow Gold has operated programs in the Wood River Valley for numerous years. The organization's effort to build a permanent home in the Wood River Valley was rejected with the board's vote to uphold the Planning and Zoning Commission decision.

Trend Micro have revealed that over 5,000 new malicious Android apps have been picked up on in the first three months of 2012. Security pundits predicted there would be a continuous rise and it would appear they were right.
This isn't really surprising as more and more people are opting to use Android and more people using their phones and tablets alike for everyday web surfing. Was only a matter of time before "cyber criminals" started targeting the huge Android base.
"One big reason for the popularity of apps is their ease of use. Browsing the net on your mobile phone is not the same experience as doing it on a laptop… The key thing to remember is to think before you give an app access to your data… If you have any doubts about giving oversensitive information, just don't do it" wrote Robert McArdle, a Senior Threat Researcher at Trend Micro.
This is an ever constant reminder to all our Android fans out there to go careful what your downloading and if an app seems to be good to be true price wise or what the app can do, actually it probably is.

It is something I had been thinking about ever since I first came to Texas over a year ago.
I had a vision of golden beaches and balmy waters along the Texas shoreline of the Gulf of Mexico. It was a vision of beauty and gentle summer breezes along with dazzling sunshine. I absolutely had to see it. Of course, in the back of mind I knew I would have to compare the shoreline and beaches of the Gulf of Mexico in Texas to the shoreline and beaches of the best of the Great Lakes where I grew up, the eastern shore of Lake Michigan. I was eager to compare.
But for some reason or reasons—none of them good—I still had not made the pilgrimage to the Gulf Coast.
So a few weeks ago, I decided I had to change all that. My mission: set sail for the place I heard the most about from people here in Gonzales and in New Braunfels—Port Aransas.
I talked to some friends about it, and informed them of my planned journey. Then my buddy Tyler Carter stepped forward and said "Man, Terry, that sounds great. I'd love to go do the beach in Port A. I'll let you know if Kalen (Montgomery, Tyler's girlfriend) thinks we can get away that weekend. She's from there."
"Great idea," I responded. "Try and make that happen. I'd love to hang with you guys on the beach."
So with that said, the die was cast. Port A for the weekend of Aug. 24 and 25. I was excited to go.
What I didn't know before I left Gonzales, however, was that Saturday the 25th was the one year anniversary of Hurricane Harvey. After I got to Port A, I knew I was in for an education in disaster, resilience, determination and, of course, spectacular beauty.
And thanks to Tyler and Kalen, it was also one of the most epic nights of beach sitting and gazing as we watched Mother Nature at her finest.
I left early on Friday to beat the traffic at the ferry, so I got there well ahead of Tyler. As soon as I crossed and drove off of the ferry, I could see things were not like they used to be in this resort town. Windows boarded up in places. Some buildings abandoned completely. Lots of construction repairing damage from the year before.
Yet in spite of all the horror of the previous year, there were a lot more signs of progress. Of rebuilding. Of a community coming together to rebuild and restore its soul once again. Port A Strong.
It wasn't just a slogan, it was a way of life and a motivation in almost everyone I talked to. From Virginia's on the Bay to the Flats to Bernies to Fisherman's Wharf—everyone had the same determination that Port A was coming back and would be better and stronger than it was before. Sitting in some of the restaurants, I heard story after story from locals about what they had been through, what they had overcome, and how optimistic they were about the future.
It was an inspiring story, and I was proud just to be among these hearty souls and survivors. It was the best of the American spirit, no, the best of the Texas spirit that drove these people and motivated them to never even think of quitting or giving up.
I was touched and moved by their spirit.
So later, around 8 p.m., I got the call that Tyler and Kalen had arrived and were setting up their camper on the beach. I picked up my pass, drove to the beach, and then pulled up alongside their site to spend the night.
After hearing so much about the horror of the hurricane that roared through Port A exactly one year before, I was completely discombobulated by the night we experienced last Friday.
Instead of the savagery of Mother Nature at her most furious, we had the night of a lifetime. Perfectly clear skies with almost a full moon shining off the Gulf of Mexico. The stars were bright deep in the heart of Texas that night, and you could see three planets glowing in the night sky. A mellow breeze rolled off the water, and we sat up talking to the early hours of the morning. We were parked just 15 feet from the waterline, where the crash of waves provided a calm sense of mellowness to the stillness of the night.
It was one of the coolest nights I've ever spent on a beach, and I have never camped as close to the water as we were on this night. And I'm grateful I got to spend it with Kalen and Tyler.
But at the end of the evening, I couldn't help but think of the irony and the dichotomy of the weather from one year to the next. From Hurricane Harvey and its horror, to Port A strong and the best of Mother Nature.
God, I love this state.

When Can I Expect to See a Return on My Investment for a Business Master's Degree?
A business master's can often be the key to a higher salary, but how soon can you expect to see a return on your investment?
The benefits of graduate management education are longstanding and far-reaching. Your degree can take you to the cutting edge of business and to greater heights in your career. But completing a master's degree in business is no small commitment, and you may be wondering when you can expect to see a return on your investment (ROI).
Before we can discuss the pace of your return, we must first establish what influences the outcome. First, the out-of-pocket costs to attend your chosen institution, which include both your tuition and living expenses, as well as the opportunity cost of lost wages. Second, the salary—and signing bonus—you expect to earn upon graduation and throughout your career. In general, if your salary is lower than the cost of your education, it will take you longer to see a positive return on investment, and vice versa. Learn more about the salary expectations of business master's degrees.
In the Graduate Management Admission Council's™ 2016 Alumni Perspectives Survey, b-school alumni reported that it takes, on average, less than four years to recoup the cost of their graduate management education. It takes full-time, two-year MBA alumni about 3.5 years to recoup their investment; followed by 2.5 years for both full-time, one-year and part-time, online, and executive MBA graduates. Specialized business master's programs reported faster ROI times when compared with MBA programs.
Opportunity costs are a major factor that contribute to longer ROI times, since you must recoup these as well as the cost of your education in order to realize a positive return. The rate of your return can also be affected by external circumstances, such as the time period when you graduate and current economic conditions. Consider these alongside your projected growth as you weigh the ROI for different schools and programs.
What's not present in the numbers, however, are the non-monetary gains achieved by business school students. You can expect to realize an incredible amount of personal growth when undertaking a graduate business degree. Not only will you develop your interpersonal "soft skills," but you'll gain a sense of pride, confidence, and independence from successfully completing your degree. You can begin to reap these skills as early as the application phase and expect them to last throughout the duration of your career.
Graduate business school remains a worthwhile investment: b-school alumni earn a median cumulative base salary of US$2.5 million over 20 years after graduation. With careful consideration, the right program can produce a positive return on your investment. Start your b-school search today when you complete your profile on mba.com.

If you are a regular here, you will be aware that I regard Sneaky Deer as dangerous, intrusive and, well… sneaky. Elizabeth took a photograph this morning that proves I'm right. This big buck was so sneaky that I missed him. Not that I could have done much from inside my 'run'. And Elizabeth was silly enough to step out into the morning fog without me. I had no idea what she was up to when she walked past the path to my house, camera in hand. I thought she was taking another of her tree pictures, even when I heard her mutter, "****! I wish I had my telephoto with me!"
Go and get it, I thought. I'm not going to say anything out loud when she's in that sort of mood!
Now I see why she didn't go back for it, though. She had to take the shot and hope. 'Cause Sneaky Deer, particularly Sneaky Deer bucks, are very sneaky this time of year. Blink, as you two-leggers say, and they're gone!

These panko breaded tofu nuggets are the perfect finger food for your next party! They're crispy, oven-baked, and a little bit spicy.
I've been working on this recipe for eons. At least, it feels like eons. After a relatively tofu-free first few months on Cozy Peach Kitchen, I finally shared a recipe for spicy peanut tofu and tofu pot pie.
I eat tofu almost weekly, thanks to its versatility and high nutritional value.
Although I enjoyed the excitement that comes from trying new tofu recipes, I was ready for that one good recipe that I could rely on… and I finally found it!
These tofu nuggets are the perfect dinner centerpiece, crispy salad topping, or dunkable appetizer. You'll love how easy it is to make these crispy tofu nuggets!
This post contains affiliate links. As an Amazon associate I earn from qualifying purchases; read my disclaimer policy for more information.
I used panko because it is delightfully crispy and crunchy, especially after baking in the oven for 30 minutes.
After a few failed attempts and inevitable kitchen disasters, I finally landed on my favorite technique for breading the tofu nuggets.
It's probably the one I should have started with because it's a tried-and-true classic way to bread proteins of all kind: simply coat with flour, egg/flax egg, seasoned panko bread crumbs then bake.
Step by step instructions
- Marinate in vegetable broth and soy sauce for 10 minutes (you can skip this step, but it adds a lot of flavor to the final result!)
- Coat with flour
- Dunk in flax eggs or eggs (the results are very similar)
- Coat in seasoned panko crumbs
- Bake for 30 minutes at 400 degrees F, turning halfway through; remove tofu nuggets from the oven when they're golden brown and crispy
Recipe tips and FAQ
Should I press tofu?
You don't have to press this tofu before marinating and breading it.
Instead, pat the tofu lightly with a paper towel before slicing. After slicing, pat each square firmly, but not so firmly that the tofu dissolves. This removes a little bit of the water from the outside.
If you have 15 extra minutes, you can press the tofu using a tofu press (this is the one that I always use), but it's not necessary.
Choose your spice level
The spicy seasoned panko crumbs in this recipe are an ode to classic Southern fried chicken, but you can adjust the seasonings to better fit your taste preferences.
Another option is to use regular panko and 1-2 teaspoons of Cajun seasoning (this is my favorite Cajun seasoning brand).
You can cut the nuggets into a variety of squares or strips. I like to make thick nuggets that are dunkable and sturdy.
Alternately, you can slice into tofu "fingers" or into smaller cubes. The cook time will be about the same unless you make them very thin nuggets.
Dipping sauce
Every good baked tofu nugget deserves an equally delicious dipping sauce.
My go-to is a Maple Dijon sauce. To make, combine 1/4 cup spicy brown mustard, 2 tablespoons mayo, 2 tablespoons honey or agave syrup, 1 teaspoon soy sauce.
Other tasty dipping sauce options include sweet and spicy vegan BBQ sauce or tahini goddess dressing.
Serving ideas
Pair your crispy tofu nuggets with vegan macaroni and cheese and vegan collard greens, or serve as an appetizer with a maple dijon dipping sauce.
The lightly tangy and sweet sauce pairs perfectly with these crispy baked tofu nuggets!

text: An Interview with Theresa Bakker by Madara Mason | Apr 17, 2018 | Uncategorized | 0 comments Theresa Bakker was kind enough to take the time to interview me for my recent exhibit in the UA Museum of the North. The following is excerpted from their blog and you can read the rest of the interview there. March 30, 2018 PHOTO ABOVE: From "Cradle of Kleptocracy" by Madara Mason I CONTAIN MULTITUDES – Madara Mason is an eclectic artist. Her work combines paper, beads, found objects, dressmaking patterns, grant rejections, prescription labels, block prints, magazine and book cutouts, and traditional media like acrylic paint and ink. Born and raised in the South, Mason moved to Alaska in 1994 and began painting the animals and plants she found in her backyard. Her work is featured through July 2018 in the Café Gallery at the UA Museum of the North. Is there a theme to the artworks that you selected for this show? So many artists have made powerful political statements regarding women's work, and I don't feel I need to repeat those statements. But by the same token, in rejecting that emphasis, I might ALSO be guilty of rejecting women's work as irrelevant. The traditions I allude to in my work are more meaningful than the generic label of women's work: the reuse of old materials, mending the broken, using patterns to bind a community through the use of shared imagery, and constructing objects that carry the memories of a family or individual. I also think there's an element of landscape and flora and fauna in these works that I'm hoping won't be overlooked. Landscapes are so often tidy recreations of a singular individual's (often romanticized) perspective. In my experience nature isn't tidy at all and it changes constantly, especially the landscapes you find in Fairbanks and the surrounding areas, which are often as urban as they are wild. You can't really go on a hike or a walk or a kayak trip without coming across bits of wrappers, labels, odd trinkets with no clear purpose, pieces of tools or cars, remnants of junk mail, and the remains of the pipeline industry. Most of these paintings are my attempt to reconcile that detritus of urban life with the wild, organic forms that spring up inside of it and all around it, which would be a more honest vision of my local landscape as I see it. I guess I'm trying to hone in on the realities of all these multiple landscapes, multiple identities, multiple perspectives, and multiple methods of constructing a work of art. There's a voice in American culture right now asking me to define myself as one thing: one race, one origin, one gender, one religion, one nationality, one political party. This is my refusal to define myself and my world in such singular terms. Like Whitman said, "I contain multitudes" and those multitudes sometimes contradict one another.

Honda proudly introduces the Black Spirit, an intense variation on the Shadow Spirit theme with authentic bobber styling and a pure, minimalistic spirit. In one basic colour, its bold character comes to the fore, making its beefy performance and easy ownership all the more pleasurable.
Based around a low, triangular profile that places the rider in the middle of the ride, and accentuated with exclusive styling details. Proven technologies ease handling and usability, and deliver a highly involving yet relaxed ride. The fuel injection system is tuned for smooth, responsive control, allowing riders to enjoy the engine's power. The maintenance-free shaft drive and reliable liquid-cooled engine mean stress-free ownership.
Riding the Black Spirit is a stirring experience, and its aggressive attitude and streetwise confidence create its own authority on the street.
V-Twin Power
The power at the heart of the bike is supplied by the same 750cc liquid-cooled fuel-injected engine used in the Shadow Spirit. Its delivery is tuned for deep, rumbling pulses of power and torque. Accessibility and dependability are also essential to the Black Spirit experience, and the fuel injection system has been developed for quick throttle response and maximum fuel economy.
Pure Attitude
For its design inspiration this bike goes back to its custom roots. Its clipped rear fender, triangulated profile, blacked out details and thumping engine acknowledge a heritage that reaches back for decades.
Engine :
The liquid-cooled 52° V-twin engine powering the Black Spirit is a time-proven standard of Honda excellence, essentially the same configuration that provides strong, dependable power to all our 750cc V-twin cruisers. Its compact shape allows the frame's central backbone to be lowered, facilitating the cruiser's long-and-low profile. The engine features a long-stroke, single-pin crankshaft configuration and optimal mass to enhance the feel of its low rpm torque peak. Efficient combustion and instant power thrusts are provided by SOHC three-valve cylinder heads with dual spark plugs, while close-ratio transmission delivers strong, exhilarating acceleration from anywhere in the engine's power range. The sensation of strong, direct power delivery to the rear wheel is down to the machine's enclosed shaft final drive. Requiring only minimal maintenance, the shaft drive operates smoothly and quietly while enhancing the feel of the engine's power.
Programmed Fuel Injection :
The Black Spirit is equipped with a highly developed Honda PGM-FI fuel injection system, featuring an idle air control valve which precisely controls incoming air for smooth idling operation. The system ensures easy starting, instant throttle response and smooth, satisfying thrusts of acceleration. With accurate fuel flow monitoring, efficiency is also optimised, keeping both emissions and fuel consumption low.
Exhaust System :
The impressive chrome-plated dual shotgun exhaust pipes that accentuate the length of the chassis are more than just a visual accent on its street rod styling. They also pump out an exhilarating sound that combines with the throbbing feel of the engine to create an exciting ride sensation.
Each exhaust pipe is fitted with an oxygen sensor that feeds data to the fuel injection system's ECU and a HECS3 (Honda Evolutional Catalyser System) low emissions system. This strictly regulates exhaust gases while still maintaining the engine's capable performance and thrilling sound.
Chassis :
The engine's power is contained in a slim, lightweight and rigid double-cradle steel frame that is both responsive and easy to handle. A large-diameter single tube backbone and pressed steel pivot plates combine in a low overall chassis height, allowing for low tank and seat positioning. The seat rails and chopped rear fender are supported by a cast sub-frame. The frame design is an important contributor to the sensational ride quality, transmitting enough primary vibration to maximise enjoyment of the engine's performance without allowing it to become uncomfortable.
Suspension, Wheels and Brakes :
The extended 41mm front fork and 17" front wheel create a remarkably responsive and comfortable package. On the left side, the shaft drive is integrated with the swingarm adding to the clean and simple look. The exposed rear shock absorbers are tilted forward, providing progressive damping and a comfortable ride with precise control. A fat 160mm rear tyre emphasises the sporty custom styling as well as adding to comfort. The powerful brakes perform with smooth efficiency. A large-diameter 296mm front disc with a responsive dual-piston caliper is paired with a conventional 180mm leading/trailing drum brake at the rear.
Styling Features :
The Shadow 750 Black Spirit is a perfectly turned-out celebration of an iconic style and culture. From its bobbed tail to its assertive front wheel, every contour is carefully styled. Its bold, kicked-out forks and raised handlebars provide the point of focus from which it leans back into a long, tapered tank.
The instrument panel is placed on top of the gleaming tank. It features a large, easily readable speedometer dial, a compact assembly of practical gauges and indicator lights and an eye-catching silver-painted cover. The seat is easily the lowest in the 750cc cruiser class and creates a deep riding position that allows an easy reach to the grips and a laid-back cruiser feel.
The bike is available in only one colour, a striking Graphite Black which is highlighted by a number of exclusive trims and details.
As well as the fenders, tank and seat, the short, semi-drag-style handlebars receive a new black colouring. The tail-light, headlight, air cleaner cover and rear shocks are also black. The centrepiece is a striking, black-painted engine with cast-in fins that give it a traditional air-cooled look. These features present a strong contrast to the luxuriously gleaming silver of the dual muffler, front forks and custom-look rear fender struts. The overall image is sophisticated and clean-cut.

Did you know you could legally lose your land to a squatter?
Well, you can if you are not careful.
According to the Law of Limitation Act chapter 22, anyone squatting on a piece of land or property can petition for legal ownership of the same, if no one has come forward to claim the said land or property. If the real owner of the property does not come forward to redeem or reclaim their land or property, the person squatting on it can petition for legal ownership. This extinguishes the original owner's claim to the property.
Now, that is a lot of legal jargon (or is it confusion?) Let's break it down in a language we can all understand.
Let's say you own land or property. It's your land, fully paid for; and you cannot lose it. Well, think again! To be certain you do not lose your property, keep a close eye on it for it is possible for a tenant or trespasser to go to court and claim legal ownership of your land.
In Kenya, if a tenant or trespasser squats on your land and stakes a claim for it in court, if you don't file a motion to dismiss the claim within 12 years, they could actually be awarded your land. This means they get to legally own your land without paying a cent!
In fact, there have been cases where people buy property but do not even visit it. This allows squatters to settle on the land. After living on the land for a few years, the squatters can lay claim to the property through a court petition. To avoid such a scenario, it is important to make sure your land or property does not have squatters on it. This is why there are so many incidences of forcible eviction of squatters from other people's land.
To avoid waking up to the rude surprise of a squatter laying legal claim to your property, frequently inspect it and evict anyone that could be squatting on it. Never leave your property un-inspected for a long duration.

Avid smartphone users already know that recording videos vertically instead of horizontally is gauche — or call it "Vertical Video Syndrome"). Now we've learned that technique can be incredibly dangerous. This clip shows a guy filming a video selfie at a restaurant and his friend across the table attempting to lean in (no, not that kind of Leaning In). In the process, her hair grazes a candle and catches fire, and everyone freaks out because a part of her was just on fire.
Now, if only this man had simply tilted his phone and recorded a horizontal video, none of this would have happened.
