KATHY LUTHER: Christmas tree green in other ways, too
Knowing I'm getting the Christmas week for my column, I started to write with the intent of celebrating how the environment supports our holiday cheer. I apologize if the mixed results of my research leaves you feeling there is a "Grinchy" tinge to your green Christmas.
NIRPC environmental committee declines stance on Illiana vote
PORTAGE | The environmental committee of the Northwestern Indiana Regional Planning Commission on Thursday discussed the proposed Illiana Expressway without agreeing to a recommendation for a vote by the full board.
KATHY LUTHER: Tips for healthy turf, gardens
This is the time of year when it is usually pretty easy to see who has decided to let the turf grass in their lawn go dormant for the hot summer months, and who has decided to irrigate.
KATHY LUTHER: Stormwater fees don't stop rain, but manage it
One of the main storm drains on my block is at the end of my driveway. Wednesday morning as I stood out in the extreme downpour, clearing branches and debris out of this drain to allow the water to clear, I was reminded of a conversation with a region resident complaining about their stormwater fee.
KATHY LUTHER: Water knows no boundaries
We use water to sustain our bodies, cook and grow our food. We use it to wash everything from clothes to toes, cars to decks. We use it to float goods to us from faraway places, and to carry away waste products. We swim, paddle and play in it.
KATHY LUTHER: Use deicing agents sparingly to protect streams
Remember that today's snow is tomorrow's river and lake. Here is my annual list of how to limit the stormwater pollution you create during the winter.
KATHY LUTHER: Give thanks for water, conserve it carefully
Since this is a Thanksgiving column, you are either reading this column with the delicious aroma of turkey in the oven, or you are dozing over your newspaper in a pleasant turkey tryptophan-induced daze. While you are thinking of all the things you are thankful for -- whether family, friends…
KATHY LUTHER: Valpo turning green at conference today, tomorrow
Many people recycle, and that is a great green thing to do. Some conserve energy by turning down the thermostats, changing light bulbs and replacing windows when they can. These are great steps individuals can take toward a green future. But there is a lot more we can do together in our citi…
KATHY LUTHER: Here's your chance to support clean water
Public opinion polls show Americans want clean water. Our own surveys of Northwest Indiana residents found that 91 percent value clean water.
KATHY LUTHER: Become well grounded for groundwater protection
I've written a lot about stormwater runoff and ways to protect it. Today I'm thinking about the water underneath the ground and how the two are connected.
KATHY LUTHER: When geese are well fed, you'd better duck
Now that spring is truly here, it is hard not to notice some of our feathered friends settling down for a season of reproduction. Who doesn't enjoy the site of Canadian geese gracefully sailing across a lake, the cute upturned tail of a dabbling duck, or soaring seagulls circling at the beac…
KATHY LUTHER: Harvest rain water for use on lawn, in garden
The old Bing Crosby standard "Pennies from Heaven" reminds us that rain falling from the sky is valuable and that clouds and showers now lead to sunshine and flowers later. The song recommends turning your umbrella upside down to catch this treasure.
KATHY LUTHER: Use chemicals with care to reduce harmful effects
You probably already know that many of the common household products used for cleaning, home improvement, pest control or other purposes need to be handled with care. Yet despite label language such as "Danger," "Caution," "Warning" or "Toxic," we can get so used to household chemicals that …
KATHY LUTHER: Snow provides proof of urban runoff pollution
Are you a stormwater pollution skeptic? Do you tend to think that all the talk about runoff causing water pollution is just an urban legend designed to distract us from more important topics?
First non-city resident named to Valpo utilities board

VALPARAISO | Recent tests of water from faucets in older homes turned up five cases of excess copper, a Water Department official said Tuesday.
KATHY LUTHER: What is a tree worth to you?
Fall is in the air. Now, some folks greet the beautiful fall color show of our urban trees with excitement and pure aesthetic appreciation. Others look at a few golden leaves starting to fall and can think only of the how much work all that raking will be.

Elton John and Melanie Amaro Super Bowl commercial a royal joke? (Pepsi)
February 6th, 2012
Fans of reality television show X Factor were anxious to see the new Pepsi commercial featuring this year's winner Melanie Amaro and other big name music celebrities. During the competition, viewers were teased with video clips of old Pepsi commercials showing big name super stars like Michael Jackson and Britney Spears (joking around and over-the top performing to help sell soda). What they got from Pepsi Cola during Super Bowl 2012 was a commercial featuring Elton John, Flavor Flav and Melanie Amaro dressed up like they were a part of a King's Court. The David Beckham commercial for H&M and Coke polar bears were MUCH cuter. Keep reading... More good news and green gossip on this [...]
Ding Dong Dictator Kim Jong-Il dead (funny video clips from SNL, Mad TV)
December 19th, 2011
The Kim Jong-Il dictatorship was long parodied by comedy television programs in the United States. Mad TV was one hit television show in the West that used to make jokes about the communist leader being obsessed with Western culture and loving to perpetrate human rights abuses. Saturday Night Live (SNL) was another. Here's a video clip from Mad TV where that kookie little Kim Jong Il shows off as the, "little man with the big dictatorship." In it, he interviews the, "big deal player" Donald Trump, host of Celebrity Apprentice. We also have a funny link to a video of Kim Jong-Il singing "Wocket Man" by Elton John (sort of).

On Getty Images:
Check out the new retouced version:
HDR of a small, volcanic, tropical island that is inside the
Nicaraguan lake Cocibolca (Known in Maps as "Lake Nicaragua"
but I like the native name better). The lake has over 365 volcanic
islands, like this one. Some even have restaurants and American TV,
cracked of course because I noticed the satellite dish said
"DirecTV" but the reciever was another brand. Besides, I
don't think DirecTV is going to each of these rustic islands to setup
a dish (everything is so poor!). The kind of food: fresh fish from the
very lake. Really fun. Did you know that you can eat a full BIG plate
of food at restaurants for only $2 ? Thats cheap! At the center of
the island there is a small island called "Ometepe" with 2
volcanos in it. I hear the scenery is great there too but the journey
was about 8 hours on a boat and I didn't have much time, actually, the
day after that day was my last day and there was so much stuff to do.
Wikipedia says that the lake has over 400+ but I got my information
from Native Nicaraguan Tour guides. Mhhh, who's to trust?
This image has very little modifications by the way, you can get these
kind of colours in an HDR just when its about to become a sunset. I
was amazed by all of the beautiful scenery! I don't really encourage
excessive travel but you should get out of that town of yours every
once in a while.

Sean Kingston Accused of Gang Attack on Woman in New Lawsuit
Alleged attack occurred after a 2010 Justin Bieber show.
Singer Sean Kingston has been hit with a lawsuit by a woman who claims he was part of a gang style attack on her.
The woman, who remains unnamed, was allegedly beaten up in 2010 after a Justin Bieber concert which Kingston performed in.
The singer, most known for his hit "Beautiful Girls," was served with the legal documents this past Friday by a private investigator upon arriving in Los Angeles from Miami.
The lawsuit is not welcomed for the Jamaican born singer who is on the comeback trail with a new album; after a horrible incident last year which almost ended his life involving a jet-ski.
Kingston changed his life since the incident. He went on a diet and lost weight to make sure all aspects of his health are well.
The singer had an outpouring of compassion and sympathy after the incident last year, and you wonder if that will end with this lawsuit.

Baird, Rachel (2005) Corporate criminals and their involvement in IUU fishing: an Australian perspective. International Fisheries Law and Policy Review, 1 (3). pp. 170-187. ISSN 1740-4570
IUU fishing has become a lucrative business activity for highly organised fishing entities. Whilst the 1990s were shaped by recognition of the increasing problem of IUU fishing and the formulation of international responses, the new millennium has witnessed a shift in the character of the IUU fishery. Corporate entities have long been involved in marine fisheries. However, a criminal element, characterised by a demonstrated commitment to evading international, regional and national laws, has become apparent in recent years. Fishing grounds in the Southern Ocean have been particularly hard hit by IUU fishing. Remote and hostile seas, practical difficulties associated with conducting surveillance in such seas and the perceived low risk of detection have combined to produce an environment conducive to IUU fishing. Low penalties and high returns have further encouraged IUU fishers to the Southern Ocean. The availability of high economic returns in a low-risk environment has attracted the entry of corporate criminals into IUU fishing. This paper reviews the evidence relating to arrested IUU vessels in the Southern Ocean and concludes that their practice is increasingly corporate and increasingly criminal.

I have an 11 year-old daughter who is very quiet and shy but also extremely intuitive about others feelings, fairly responsible and generally very kind to others. She's a great big sister now too -- after a rocky start. Plus, she does very well in school because she has a superhuman interest in learning! :-)
But she gets bullied at school. How can I help her?

North Star II Fishing & Charter Boat's crew has learned to analyze the weather, tides, and times of day to deduce when fish will come out of hiding. To supplement their instincts, the crew also gleans wisdom from a fish-detecting GPS radar and a local grizzly bear. The company's fiberglass-coated Northstar 2 meets the standards of the USCG's annual inspections, and can accommodate up to 100 passengers on each chartered trip. Extensive seating options, a sound system with Sirius radio, and a kitchen to prepare snacks make fishing trips comfortable as well as aquatically lucrative. The company's newest vessel, Nautic Star, fosters a more intimate brand of fish-storytelling on its 40-person capacity boat. Fluke, flounder, bass, and live eels are among the species hauled in from the deep, whether by fishing line, cast nets, or polite invitations to hop onboard.
During the Big Apple Beatdown, an all-day roller-derby tournament hosted by the New York Shock Exchange, spectators arrive to the rink with chairs under their arms to watch six notable MRDA teams battle for the National Champion title. Bouts begin at 10 a.m. with the Dallas Deception taking on the Magic City Misfits in a storm of skates, helmets, and trampled 10-gallon hats. Other teams battling for supremacy include the St. Louis GateKeepers, Puget Sound Derby Outcasts, and Pioneer Valley Dirty Dozen. A special women's game will also be held featuring the Long Island Roller Rebels taking on the Jersey Shore Roller Girls. The championship bout commences at 7:30 p.m., and the day ends with a presentation of medals at 9:15 p.m., where one team is deemed the victor. Matches occur on two separate tracks, allowing smooth transitions between bouts and enough time for padded pros to finish a game of Connect the Bruises.
Helmed by the tag-team duo of a New York Times best-selling author and former creative director of New York's Lincoln Center, Pulitzer & Panetta Writing & Art Studio molds artistic minds of any age with workshops that keep the right side of the brain firing on all synapses.
The phosphorescent indoor landscape at Monster Mini Golf immerses putters in an eerie universe that inverts the sun-soaked cheer of conventional courses. Rimmed in glowing barriers, 18 holes lure swingers of all sizes to challenge their coordination and resolve in the face of winged monsters, scowling animated trees, a creepy clown, and their opponents' shockingly dazzling smiles. Sheltered from searing rain and howling wind, the indoor course enables play around hazards such as a spell well and luminous, ghostly windmill at any time of the year. An in-house radio station and DJ mask the sound of pounding hearts with lively beats and course commentary, and golfers looking for additional glory can win prizes by participating in regular contests or at the on-site arcade.
Though there are many apparatuses inside the gym, the most employed tool at New Image Gymnastics is invisible. That's because it's positive reinforcement—the trainers rely on supportive comments and cheery attitudes as the key source of their students' motivation. This approach applies whether they're coaching toddlers through a padded obstacle course or helping teenagers perfect a competitive routine. Their classes welcome 18-month- to 18-year-olds, and the fully trained staff monitors each student as he or she builds strength, balance, and self-esteem.

TACOMA, Wash. (AP) — Police in Tacoma, Wash, say a man who donned a wig and a flowered blue dress to rob a KeyBank branch last week may have used a different look while robbing another branch of the bank two days later.
The News Tribune reports (http://is.gd/qLlsOW) that the man who hit a KeyBank last Friday afternoon wore a black shirt and pants, a bike helmet and sunglasses and had long blond hair. Police said Tuesday the flowing hair may have been another wig.
The robber is described as in his late 40s.
Police say the man can't disguise his bad teeth and wrinkled complexion.

Reviews for Even Comets Fade Away |
Herdcat chapter 1 . 3/12/2012 oooh this one is creepy! I really like the idea that he might still be there just without a solid form - and the perspective of Jimmy is just chilling - the idea that he used the daughter just to manipulate him into another yes is just so cold... |
le error chapter 1 . 9/4/2011 Jesus, my heart. That was incredibly depressing I feel so bad for Jimmy. He was brave too I admit having endure so much suffering and not being able to control any of it. It's really upsetting. I hope he eventually finds peace. |
Mali Bear's Buddy chapter 1 . 9/1/2011 Holy crap... Struggling to breathe coming out of that one. Geez...talk about heavy hitting. Let me congratulate you on one of the most breathtakingly painful pieces I have ever read. And I mean that in the nicest way possible. I could physically FEEL Jimmy's agony. By the end I was thinking "my God, just end the poor man's suffering..." I like that they helped him OD instead of making it something painful like when Sam was forced to shoot Madison in Heart. The funeral pyre and Dean's guilt over not thinking that Jimmy could be hurt inside of Cas the same as with demon possession. Utterly and completely stunning. How in the heck does this not have a ton more reviews? |
Effiny chapter 1 . 8/6/2011 That was wonderful. So sad, but wonderful. It'd be awesome if Jimmy was somehow able to help get Cas de-juiced in season 7, don't you think? |
cheekymonster2 chapter 1 . 6/18/2011 WOW! That was so good-Loved that you gave us Jimmys perspective on how everything went down! Excellent work! |

"In The Day of Battle, Rick Atkinson picks up where he left off in An Army at Dawn, his history of the North African campaign, which won the Pulitzer Prize in 2003. A planned third volume, on the Normandy invasion and the war in Europe, will complete The Liberation Trilogy, which is shaping up as a triumph of narrative history, elegantly written, thick with unforgettable description and rooted in the sights and sounds of battle . . . He excels at describing the furor of battle, and the Italian campaign provides him with abundant raw material . . . Mr. Atkinson, a longtime correspondent and editor for The Washington Post, conveys all of this with sharp-edged immediacy and a keen eye for the monstrous and the absurd."—William Grimes, The New York Times"Monumental . . . With this book, Rick Atkinson cements his place among America's great popular historians, in the tradition of Bruce Catton and Stephen Ambrose . . . Atkinson skillfully conveys the growing power of the U.S. Army, pouring men and material forward in an inexhaustible stream and, at the front, the toughening of the American troops as they advance and beat hell out of an expert and implacable enemy."—Robert Killebrew, The Washington Post Book World"The majestic sequel to his Pulitzer Prize-winning An Army at Dawn . . . Atkinson's achievement is to marry prodigious research with a superbly organized narrative and then to overlay the whole with writing as powerful and elegant as any great narrative of war."—The Wall Street Journal"Atkinson proved what a determined and assiduous researcher could achieve in An Army at Dawn, his bestselling account of the North Africa campaign, and he has been no less thorough in The Day of Battle . . . But while there is new material here—like information about the death of Allied servicemen from American mustard gas at Bari—it is his ability to ferret out astonishing amounts of detail and marshal it into a highly readable whole that gives Atkinson the edge over most writers of this field. Anyone who devoured An Army at Dawn with relish will be delighted with his account of the Sicilian and Italian campaign. All the same ingredients are here, from sharp one-liners ('Camaraderie and good fun,' he says of the resumption of negotiations at the Trident conference in Washington, 'promptly popped like soap bubbles') to brilliantly observed character portraits . . . The minutiae of events combined with telling character observation enables Atkinson to write about Eisenhower—and others, like General Patton, Clark and Truscott—in a way that makes readers feel they knew these men personally. Opening with a fine account of the Trident conference between Roosevelt, Churchill and their chiefs of staff, Atkinson notes that the Italian campaign was really all about Allied strategy, or rather diverging views on strategy between America and Britain . . . The Day of Battle is a very fine book indeed. 'Here the dreamless dead would lie,' Atkinson writes in a very moving passage about the aftermath of the bloody Rapido, 'leached to bone by the passing seasons, and waiting, as all the dead would wait, for doomsday's horn.' Even the great Ernie Pyle would have liked to have written that one."—James Holland, The New York Times Book Review"The Day of Battle is the second volume of Rick Atkinson's monumental history of the US Army's western experience in World War II. It chronicles, with all the verve, perception, and insight for which he has become celebrated the painful advance of Allied forces from the beaches of Sicily to the grand piazzas of Rome . . . Atkinson's book is a model of historical narrative and analysis. His accounts of the great battles evoke in vivid detail the horrors endured by the participants. I find it hard to quibble with any of his judgments. This is not least because he understands so wonderfully well the doubts and difficulties of the men of 1943-1944. He does not seek, as do too many historians, to impose upon them the values and perspective of the twenty-first century. The British historian Professor Sir Michael Howard, himself a veteran of the Italian campaign, often remarks: 'We make war as we can, rather than as we should.' This was profoundly true of the Italian campaign, which Atkinson chronicles with glittering distinction."—Max Hastings, The New York Review of Books"Near the end of his copiously reported, briskly written The Day of Battle: The War in Sicily and Italy, 1943-1944, Rick Atkinson quotes an unnamed BBC reporter who burst into Allied media headquarters in Rome on the morning of June 6, 1944. The Allies had just liberated the Eternal City, but elsewhere in Europe it was D-Day. 'Boys, we're on the back page now,' the reporter said. 'They've landed in Normandy.' And so it has been, for six-plus decades. The fight for Sicily and then up the rugged, heavily defended Italian coastline to Rome and beyond largely is forgotten beneath the avalanche of journalism and moviemaking that chronicles the grand crusade from the beaches at Normandy to Hitler's bunker in Berlin. If the Allies' middle campaign, between defeating Rommel in North Africa and storming ashore at Normandy, is to get its due, it well might be from The Day of Battle, the second volume of Atkinson's intended trilogy of World War II. His first in the series, An Army at Dawn, won him his second Pulitzer Prize in 2003. The reporting is meticulous and heavily footnoted . . . The Day of Battle does not glamorize incidents that today would have been instant scandals, like the conduct of individual soldiers or the failure to block German soldiers from fleeing Sicily . . . One of Atkinson's triumphs is his ability to capture the specific incident and the lesson that lurks beneath."—Tony Perry, Los Angeles Times"Extraordinary . . . Atkinson's mastery of sources, his profound grasp of tactics and strategy, and his use of quotes bring the conflict alive with a terrible vividness . . . His descriptions of combat flow with kinetic intensity . . . He also conveys the horror of battle in unforgettable detail."—The Boston Globe"Atkinson's sketches of the major characters in the war are striking in their insight and do much to reveal the personalities of the titans (and some of the lesser-known figures) of history."—San Francisco Chronicle"[The Italian campaign] is described by Rick Atkinson with a brilliance that makes his book one of the truly outstanding records of the Second World War."—Sir Michael Howard, The Times Literary Supplement"During World War II, Winston Churchill famously called the Mediterranean 'the soft underbelly' of Nazi-occupied Europe. The Day of Battle, Rick Atkinson's horrifying, fascinating account of the war in Sicily and Italy, shows the British prime minister could not have chosen a less apt adjective."—Rick Hampson, USA Today"A worthy successor to An Army at Dawn . . . Atkinson's fine book will leave his admirers eagerly awaiting the final volume of his World War II trilogy."—The Washington Times"Atkinson has a reporter's eye for the telling detail and a historian's sure grasp of the larger picture . . . Lucid and focused, The Day of Battle only whets the appetite for Atkinson's third installment . . . The trilogy will stand in the uncrowded first rank of great World War II histories."—The Philadelphia Inquirer"In Atkinson's skilled hands, the various facets of this war are burnished to a succession of gleaming highlights—bloody skirmishes, the suffering of civilians, the valor of the soldiers, the incompetence of politically engaged officers and the unearthly sounds of the guns . . . An impressive work of history told as deadline journalism—colorful, researched and with a kind of energy that lends it a sense of immediacy."—Pittsburgh Post-Gazette"[Atkinson] combines an impressive depth of research with a knack for taut, compelling narrative."—Minneapolis Star Tribune"Atkinson is fair-minded and thorough, and a lively writer."—Houston Chronicle"Atkinson is an impressive researcher and gifted stylist, and his descriptions of battle are unequaled in their beauty and terror."—Newsday"When it comes to telling the story of World War II, few can surpass Rick Atkinson . . . He may have surpassed his own great work with this latest installment in the Liberation Trilogy."—The Atlanta Journal-Constitution"With The Day of Battle, Atkinson again proves himself to stand among the ranks of our most talented popular historians . . . Required reading for anyone with an interest in the battles of World War II."—Austin American-Statesman"A standout . . . Remarkable in depth, exhaustive in detail, colorful in its storytelling."—Rocky Mountain News"A seamless, stunning narrative that is the equal of An Army at Dawn . . . Atkinson's success lies in his ability to render bare war's wretched realities in astounding prose."—Contra Costa Times"The liberation of Europe marches on in the second volume of Atkinson's sterling Liberation Trilogy—though readers may sometimes wonder how the Allies ever won. After the German defeat in North Africa, writes Atkinson, the U.S. military and political leadership pressed to take the war to northwestern Europe. FDR pointedly said that he shrank from 'the thought of putting large armies in Italy,' a country that was historically hard to attack and historically easy to defend. American commander George Marshall added that invading Italy would open a prolonged battle in the Mediterranean that would tie down men and equipment needed elsewhere; he proposed an air offensive instead. Yet the British were successful in arguing for an Italian front and 'making the elimination of Italy from the Axis partnership an immediate goal,' even if the Americans did pledge not to reinforce the front and extracted a due-by date from the British for the invasion of France. How the British succeeded is a tale in itself, one that Atkinson relates with due suspense. How the Anglo-American rivalry played out in the field will be familiar to anyone who knows the film Patton, but Atkinson rounds the story out with a close look at the field tactics of Lucian Truscott's infantry, who 'covered thirty miles or more a day in blistering heat,' and of George Patton's armor. The costs of advancing through 'Jerryland' were appalling, and they forced changes in the order of battle—speeding racial integration in the American military, for instance—while occasioning unheard-of rates of desertion and dereliction: Atkinson observes that the U.S. Army 'would convict 21,000 deserters during World War II, many of them in the Mediterranean.' Yet, despite rivalry, a fierce German resistance and other obstacles, the Allies eventually prevailed in Italy—even if the Italians, one soldier recalled, kept asking, 'Why did it take you so long?' Literate, lucid, fast-paced history—an excellent survey of the Mediterranean campaign."—Kirkus Reviews (starred review)"Flushed with the defeat of Rommel's Afrika Corps in North Africa, Winston Churchill looked ahead to attacking 'the soft underbelly of Europe.' He believed that the conquest of Sicily, followed by a rapid advance up the Italian peninsula, could reduce the necessity for a massive invasion across the English Chanel. Atkinson, a Pulitzer Prize–winning journalist, has written a comprehensive account of the campaign, which is the second volume of a planned trilogy covering the Allied liberation of Europe. As he illustrates with masterful use of primary sources, British and American war planners were deeply divided over the necessity of the campaign. Once launched, Allied attacks were frequently improvised and poorly coordinated. Still, progress was made, ending with the liberation of Rome in June 1944. Atkinson conveys the confusion and grinding difficulty of the Allied advance as experienced by ordinary soldiers while also providing interesting insights into the character of some of the top commanders."—Jay Freeman, Booklist"Atkinson surpasses his Pulitzer-winning An Army at Dawn in this empathetic, perceptive analysis of the second stage of the U.S. Army's grassroots development from well-intentioned amateurs to the formidable fighting force of World War II. The battles in Sicily and Italy developed the combat effectiveness and the emotional hardness of a U.S. Army increasingly constrained to bear the brunt of the Western allies' war effort, he argues. Demanding terrain, harsh climate and a formidable opponent confirmed the lesson of North Africa: the only way home was through the Germans: kill or be killed. Atkinson is pitilessly accurate demonstrating the errors and misjudgments of senior officers, Field Marshal Sir Harold Alexander, Gen. Mark Clark and their subordinates commanding corps and divisions. The price was paid in blood by the men at the sharp end: British and French, Indians and North Africans—above all, Americans. All that remained of the crew of one burned-out tank were the fillings of their teeth, for one example. The Mediterranean campaign is frequently dismissed by soldiers and scholars as a distraction from the essential objective of invading northern Europe. Atkinson makes a convincing case that it played a decisive role in breaking German power, forcing the Wehrmacht onto a defensive it could never abandon."—Publishers Weekly (starred review)
Rick Atkinson was a staff writer and senior editor at The Washington Post for twenty years. He is the bestselling author of An Army at Dawn, The Long Gray Line, In the Company of Soldiers, and Crusade. His awards include Pulitzer Prizes for journalism and history. He lives in Washington, D.C.
Chapter 1
The sun beat down on the stained white city, the July sun that hurt the eyes and turned the sea from wine-dark to silver. Soldiers crowded the shade beneath the vendors' awnings and hugged the lee of the alabaster buildings spilling down to the port. Sweat darkened their collars and cuffs, particularly those of the combat troops wearing heavy herringbone twill. Some had stripped off their neckties, but kept them folded and tucked in their belts for quick retrieval.
In the second volume of his epic trilogy about the liberation of Europe in World War II, Pulitzer Prize winner Rick Atkinson tells the harrowing story of the campaigns in Sicily and Italy.

Smoked Chicken & Shrimp Paella
This is my 5th or 6th attempt at Paella.
After the last couple, I decided it needed more smoke flavor. So I went with 2 legs & 2 thighs, rubbed with Ploughboy's Fin & Feather. Let them sit about an hour before they went into the mini... http://i1289.photobucket.com/albums/...om_Yan/016.jpg http://i1289.photobucket.com/albums/...-19-08_341.jpg After an hour or so they were juicy, smoky & ready! http://i1289.photobucket.com/albums/...-41-08_937.jpg http://i1289.photobucket.com/albums/...-42-01_201.jpg Deboned & cut up all that smoky goodness http://i1289.photobucket.com/albums/...-42-52_111.jpg Time to get ready for some serious grillin... http://i1289.photobucket.com/albums/...-33-32_928.jpg http://i1289.photobucket.com/albums/...-33-41_385.jpg Cooking down the sofrito http://i1289.photobucket.com/albums/...-55-36_585.jpg Everything is coming together nicely http://i1289.photobucket.com/albums/...-47-59_966.jpg Finally got a nice little soccarat. http://i1289.photobucket.com/albums/...-04-07_225.jpg Can't say it's my best. But it was prety darn good. Gotta love Paella! |
None of you pictures came through!!
Sorry - I am still learning |
Ya had my mouth watering with no pics, but NOW!!:clap:
very nice FYI, spanish chorizo is loaded with smoked paprika. Chorizo and spanish smoked paprika is how restaurants get that smoked flavor in their paellas.
I can see you nailed the saccorat (crispy rice that forms on the bottom). :hungry: |
It's the first time I got the soccarat how I wanted it. Thank you. |
Looks great man! Any tips on what to look for when shopping for a paella pan?
I liked the ones online, but I prefer to shop local if I can. I got mine from my local Ace Hardware. It's a SS Green Egg model. 14" so it's more than enough for the better half & me. It's worked great for me + I supported a local business. Win - Win!
Here is a great store for Paella stuff. Coincidentally, they are about a half mile from my house. High quality stuff. Check 'em out.
http://www.hotpaella.com/ |
So, I prefer a steel (non-stainless) pan with dimples. In theory, the dimples catch some of the oil and keep your stuff from burning. I have a 15 inch pan and larger. You don't want to start too large. Doing a Paella is all about the prep work as things happen real fast.
Quite often, I make the Sofrito in advance. Makes it a lot easier because if you are making a Paella, you probably have company. They feed a lot of people. Nice Paella!! |
Good info, thanks!!!
Looks good. I had paella once at the Costa del Sol.

Suspect in 1995 slaying arrested in Belize
A man wanted for allegedly committing a 14-year-old murder in Roxbury has been arrested in Belize, Central America, authorities said today.
Patrick Anthony Brown, 36, originally of Mattapan, had a warrant for his arrest issued following the 1995 murder of Zandera Sullivan, 21, of Jamaica Plain. Authorities believe Brown fled the country shortly after the incident.
Brown was apprehended Saturday by Boston Police with the assistance of US Marshals and local authorities. The Boston Police�s fugitive unit and cold case squad worked closely with marshals to find Brown, and recent tips led to his capture, authorities said.
Just before midnight on May 29, 1995, Brown allegedly stabbed and slashed Sullivan to death while in a residence at 236 Seaver St., police said. He also is accused of assaulting a female at the residence. Her injuries were not fatal.
Brown and Sullivan knew each other, according to authorities. Police said Sullivan was allegedly involved with a woman whom Brown had dated.
�We believe that this was essentially an incident of jealousy,� police spokeswoman Elaine Driscoll said.
Brown was identified as a suspect shortly after the incident, police said. Authorities did not indicate why they think he went to Belize or how long he had been there. They also did not provide specifics on his arrest.
Boston police secured a warrant for his arrest from Roxbury District Court, charging him with murder and two counts of armed assault in a dwelling house with a knife.
Brown is expected to be arraigned today at Suffolk Superior Court.
�Let this arrest send a clear message that no matter how much time has passed or how far you try to go, Boston police will be relentless in our pursuit to secure justice for victims and their loved ones,� Police Commissioner Edward Davis said in a statement.

2.The Fate of the Rising Generation within a Bureaucratic EnvironmentThe youth movement was an impotent and abortive revolt of youth against the menace of bureaucratization. It was doomed because it did not attack the seed of the evil, the trend toward socialization. It was in fact nothing but a confused expression of uneasiness, without any clear ideas and definite plans. The revolting adolescents were so completely under the spell of socialist ideas that they simply did not know what they wanted. It is evident that youth is the first victim of the trend toward bureaucratization. The young men are deprived of any opportunity to shape their own fate. For them there is no chance left. They are in fact "lost generations" for they lack the most precious right of every rising generation, the right to contribute something new to the old inventory of civilization. The slogan: Mankind has reached the stage of maturity, is their undoing. What are young people to whom nothing is left to change and to improve? Whose only prospect is to start at the lowest rung of the bureaucratic ladder and to climb slowly in strict observance of the rules formulated by older superiors? Seen from their viewpoint bureaucratization means subjection of the young to the domination of the old. This amounts to a return to a sort of caste system. Among all nations and civilizations—in the ages preceding the rise of modern liberalism and its offspring, capitalism—society was based on status. The nation was divided into castes. There were privileged castes such as kings and noblemen, and underprivileged castes such as serfs and slaves. A man was born into a definite caste, remained in it throughout his whole life, and bequeathed his caste status to his children. He who was born into one of the lower castes was forever deprived of the right to attain one of the stations of life reserved to the privileged. Liberalism and capitalism abolished all such discrimination and made all people equal under the law. Now virtually everybody was free to compete for every place in the community. Marxism provides a different interpretation of liberalism's achievements. The main dogma of Karl Marx is the doctrine of the irreconcilable conflict of economic classes. Capitalist society is divided into classes the interests of which are antagonistic. Thus the class struggle is inevitable. It will disappear only in the future classless society of socialism. The most remarkable fact about this doctrine is that it has never been explicitly expounded. In the Communist Manifesto the instances used for the exemplification of class struggles are taken from the conflict between castes. Then Marx adds that the modern bourgeois society has established new classes. But he never said what a class is and what he had in mind in speaking of classes and class antagonisms and in coordinating classes to castes. All his writings center around these never-defined terms. Although indefatigable in publishing books and articles full of sophisticated definitions and scholastic hairsplitting, Marx never attempted to explain in unambiguous language what the characteristic mark of an economic class is. When he died, thirty-five years after the publication of the Communist Manifesto, he left the manuscript of the third volume of his main treatise, Capital, unfinished. And, very significantly, the manuscript breaks off just at the point at which the explanation of this fundamental notion of his entire philosophy was to be given. Neither Marx nor any one of the host of Marxian writers could tell us what a social class is, much less whether such social classes really play in the social structure the role assigned to them in the doctrine. Of course, from the logical viewpoint it is permissible to classify things according to any trait chosen. The question is only whether a classification on the ground of the traits selected is useful for further investigation and for the clarification and amplification of our knowledge. The question is therefore not whether the Marxian classes really exist, but whether they really have the importance attached to them by Marx. Marx failed to provide a precise definition of the concept social class that he had used in all his writings in a loose and uncertain way, because a clear definition would have unmasked its futility and its valuelessness for dealing with economic and social problems and the absurdity of coordinating it to social castes. The characteristic feature of a caste is its rigidity. The social classes, as Marx exemplified them in calling the capitalists, the entrepreneurs, and the wage earners distinct classes, are characterized by their flexibility. There is a perpetual change in the composition of the various classes. Where today are the scions of those who in the days of Marx were entrepreneurs? And where were the ancestors of the contemporary entrepreneurs in the days of Marx? Access to the various stations of modern capitalist society is open to everyone. We may call the United States senators a class without violating logical principles. But it would be a mistake to coordinate them to a hereditary aristocratic caste, notwithstanding the fact that some senators may be descendants of senators of earlier days. The point has already been stressed that the anonymous forces operating on the market are continuously determining anew who should be entrepreneur and who should be capitalist. The consumers vote, as it were, for those who are to occupy the exalted positions in the setting of the nation's economic structure. Now under socialism there are neither entrepreneurs nor capitalists. In this sense, namely, that what Marx called a class will no longer exist, he was right to call socialism a classless society. But this is of no avail. There will be other differences in social functions which we can call classes with surely no less justification than that of Marx. There will be those who issue orders and those who are bound to obey these orders unconditionally; there will be those who make plans and those whose job it is to execute these plans. The only thing that counts is the fact that under capitalism everybody is the architect of his own fortune. A boy eager to improve his own lot must rely on his own strength and effort. The vote of the consumers passes judgment without respect to persons. The achievements of the candidate, not his person, are valued. Work well done and services well rendered are the only means to succeed. Under socialism, on the contrary, the beginner must please those already settled. They do not like too efficient newcomers. (Neither do old-established entrepreneurs like such men; but, under the supremacy of the consumers, they cannot prevent their competition.) In the bureaucratic machine of socialism the way toward promotion is not achievement but the favor of the superiors. The youth depends entirely on the kind disposition of the old men. The rising generation is at the mercy of the aged. It is useless to deny this fact. There are no Marxian classes within a socialist society. But there is an irreconcilable conflict between those who are in favor with Stalin and Hitler and those who are not. And it is simply human for a dictator to prefer those who share his opinions and praise his work to those who do not. It was in vain that the Italian Fascists made a hymn to youth their party song and that the Austrian socialists taught the children to sing: "We are young and this is fine." It is not fine to be a young man under bureaucratic management. The only right that young people enjoy under this system is to be docile, submissive, and obedient. There is no room for unruly innovators who have their own ideas. This is more than a crisis of the youth. It is a crisis of progress and civilization. Mankind is doomed when the youths are deprived of the opportunity to remodel society according to their own fashion. |

Review of GHD Fat Hair Lotion For All-Over Volume [DISCONTINUED] by Duffy0825
I'm torn on this one. On one hand it has given my notoriously fine hair volume, something I've longed for my entire life. On the other hand, it is rather drying - my hair gets static and flyaways by the end of the day. I've also noticed my hair looks dull when I use this product. For $25 a bottle, I feel a little let down. But, it does give me volume, so for now I'm going to use up the bottle and see what else comes down the line. For those of you wondering about the fragrance, the first thing I thought of when I smelled it was Dolce & Gabbana Light Blue. It's light and unoffensive - not fruity or medicinal. 3 1/2 lippies.
