After completing her first degree in English literature Mary trained as a nurse at the Middlesex Hospital in London. She specialised in oncology nursing early in her career, and completed an oncology nursing certificate at Sheffield's Weston Park Hospital.
She then moved to Oxford where she worked first as a research sister with the Imperial Cancer Research Fund, and then as nurse manager of the regional bone marrow transplant unit. During this time she undertook a research Masters degree at King's College London. This led to her PhD research, a grounded theory study of nurses' personal involvement in relationships with cancer patients, for which she was awarded a 3-year studentship from the Department of Health.
Having gained her PhD in 2000 Mary returned to clinical practice as a Macmillan Breast Care Specialist Nurse, first at Furness General Hospital and then at Royal Lancaster Infirmary. She undertook a Macmillan Management Fellowship, and was then seconded to Cumbria and Lancashire Strategic Health Authority, where as Assistant Director of Nursing she had responsibility for leading on End of Life Care. She also managed the Preferred Place of Care project for Lancashire and South Cumbria Cancer Network.
In February 2007 Mary took up her current post as a research associate at Lancaster University and joined the growing team in the International Observatory on End of Life Care. Her role is to support Professor Sheila Payne in developing new research into hospice care.

I was that 4-year old who would sit in front of the television and talk to Mister Rogers every day. Mister Rogers liked me, just the way I was. I swore he was looking right at me. He smiled, explained things in a calm voice, and told me I was special.
As I grew up, I secretly watched Mister Rogers when I was stressed at school or when adults around me would dismiss my feelings because I was a child. His message was never lost on me. He was comforting even through a mere television set. In eighth grade, while writing an essay on "My Hero, Fred Rogers," I learned that he had a child development background with a goal of teaching through television. I knew then that what I wanted to do when I grew up was what Mister Rogers had done for me — let kids know that their voice matters and that if they use their mind and take a step at a time they can do anything that they want to do. Eventually, I did, following an education in developmental psychology with the creation of "Blue's Clues."
The first time I met Fred Rogers, I was invited to a special children's television event at the University of Pennsylvania, where Fred was being honored. Because of the success of "Blue's Clues," I was seated at his table. I couldn't eat. After long minutes awkwardly smiling and pretending to listen to those around me, I walked over to his side of the table. I smiled and said, in my rapid fire New Yorker way, "I-just-want-you-know-that-you're-the-entire-reason-I-went-into-children's- television-I-just- want-to-influence-children-the-way-you-influenced-me."
There was a pause. A long pause. A Mister Rogers pause. Read more…

More States Considering Prescription Laws to Battle Meth
The state of Oregon requires a prescription to purchase certain formerly over-the-counter medications that can be used to make methamphetamine, and now other states are considering similar laws, the Wall Street Journal reported Oct. 21.
The 2005 Oregon law applies to drugs that contain pseudoephedrine, which in other states can be sold without a prescription but only in limited quantities and from behind the pharmacy counter.
Meth-related arrests in Oregon have fallen 43 percent since the law went into effect, and the number of meth-lab seizures has plummeted as well. In other states, however, the number of meth labs has increased, and meth producers have sent groups of people into pharmacies to buy the maximum legal amount of pseudoephedrine drugs in order to get the raw materials they need.
The Oregon law was the basis of ordinances recently passed in Washington, Mo., and Union, Mo., and state lawmakers in Missouri, California, Oklahoma and Montana are considering similar proposals. Sen. Ron Wyden (D-Ore.) has drafted federal legislation that could be introduced in Congress later this year.
"To me, [what Oregon did] is the answer," said Richard Stratman, mayor of Washington, Mo. "If you can tie up the pseudoephedrine and make it difficult to obtain, you can get the job maybe not completely done, but you can put a pretty good dent in those labs."
Pharmaceutical companies oppose the laws, saying they are inconvenient and expensive for consumers. As an alternative, the Consumer Healthcare Products Association, a trade group, is proposing an electronic monitoring system for drug sales, funded by manufacturers. The system would alert local authorities about attempts to exceed the legal purchase limits.

Hang tight!
Recipe by Liza
"This is a great recipe and looks like it came from a professional bakery. It isn't hard--just a little time-consuming."
Watch video tips and tricks
1 (24 ounce) carton cottage cheese
3 apples - peeled, cored and thinly sliced
1 teaspoon lemon juice
1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, at room temperature
1/2 cup white sugar
1 egg
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 (17.5 ounce) package frozen puff pastry, thawed
3 tablespoons white sugar for decoration
I liked every aspect about these except the cottage cheese. I was unsure about the cottage cheese and the amount. And, I couldn't quite get the batter to get smooth, like I was worried about. I was hoping for a more creamier texture with the cheese like danishes at coffee shops or bakeries. The texture though was just odd to me. I also had thought about just pinching 2 of the sides so the apples would show, but there was too much cheese filling on each one to do that. The first batch I didn't sprinkle enough sugar on, and I then realized that 3 Tblsp. came out to be 1/2 tsp. of sugar on top of each one. The ones with the right amount tasted best. I also think homemade puff pastry would be much more flakier, and less greasy, but it is also a very time-consuming so I understand the usage of the frozen. This is not a repeat recipe, because of the cheese taste and texture not being to my liking, but it was interesting to try either way.
not well thought out recipe. but the cheese mix is tasty. it will mix. just not completely. it's fine however. the biggest problem is sealing the edges. wet one edge with a small amount of water then fold and pinch with fork tines. 20.mins at 400 is good. my kids ate them up

"I absolutely did not say that," Ofelia Felix-Johnson, now living in Nebraska, tells Xpress. "This was not done with my consent, and I didn't even know about it. I didn't appreciate him putting my name out there when I had nothing to do with it."
Felix-Johnson says a family friend from Tuscon was trying to find contact info for her, and Googled her name; that person then alerted her family members that Johnson was making that claim about the letter from her. This was after Johnson had won his campaign.
The statement was released by Johnson in June 2009 after news that he pled guilty in 1996 to aggravated assault in Cuyahoga County, Ohio, broke in the midst of his campaign for state vice chair. He was given an 18-months suspended sentence, and ordered to move to Toledo and undergo domestic-violence counseling.
Purportedly from Felix-Johnson, the endorsement declared:
I have been made aware that my ex-husband is a candidate for the job of Vice Chairman of the North Carolina Republican Party which I whole heartedly support and were I a resident of that state I would vote for him. It has also come to my attention that people in the Republican party are trying to use potential issues from our marriage in an attempt to smear Tim's reputation and chances to win the race. When we took our marriage vows, we like so many including President Reagan, former speaker Newt Gingrich or even John McCain hoped that the union would last. Differences sometimes occur and words and actions may happen which require a separation; however, the love and regard for the people involved doesn't change. My ex-husband has met his obligations to me and our children, our relationship is cordial and I support whatever positive endeavors Latessa and Tim may choose to engage in.
Ofelia Felix-Johnson
Omaha, Nebraska
"He wrote it — or someone else did — saying it was me speaking, but it wasn't me," Felix-Johnson asserts. She adds that she's contacted state GOP Chair Tom Fetzer over the issue, but hasn't received any response. Johnson won the vice chair race handily, subsequently resigned his role as county party chair and moved to Durham. He also chairs the Frederick Douglass Foundation, a conservative African-American policy group.
Johnson, contacted by Xpress, declined to make a statement when asked about the authorship of Felix-Johnson's supposed endorsement.
"I'll have to talk to her, I have no idea about this statement," he tells Xpress.
Asked again if Felix-Johnson wrote the endorsement, Johnson said "the statement in and of itself, I'm not going to answer that. I'm confused as to why this coming up again right now. There's a primary race taking place, and I don't know why anyone's concerned about a statement from my ex-wife." He expressed doubt that Felix-Johnson had spoken with Xpress.
Asked if he could produce an e-mail or similar document confirming that Felix-Johnson had written the endorsement, he refused.
"I'm not showing that," he replied. "I'm not going through that. I'm the vice chair, and I don't have to explain anything that has to do with my relationship with my ex-wife. That doesn't make a whole lot of sense."
Advised that this was concerning the truth of a public statement supposedly made by her, Johnson said "OK, then that's what she's saying. I've had reporters communicate with her and that's as much as I'm going to involve my ex-wife at this point."
— David Forbes, senior reporter, with reporting by Jon Elliston, former managing editor

Climate change presents crisis, opportunity
CHARLESTON, W.Va. -- "Nature doesn't do bailouts." These were the words of former Vice President Al Gore at the 2012 Climate Reality Project training conference in August. The updated "Inconvenient Truth" slide-show included more definitive scientific conclusions -- but it also provided a message that was as clear to the eye as it was to the mind.
New images of jet wheels sunk into melted tarmac and heat-buckled railroad ties from this summer's extraordinary heat wave spoke more clearly than any speaker ever could. This is not normal, and it is only the beginning. Climate change is already here, plundering the living riches of the natural world that sustains us, threatening bankruptcy of societies and -- though the fact is hard to fathom -- menacing human survival.
It is a strange reality to accept, but once we do, the choice is simple and stark. On one side lies assured destruction at the hands of our own poor stewardship. On the other lies a future of cheap, healthy, American-made energy, driving a sustainable economy that will be there for our children and grandchildren. It is difficult to swallow, but that is exactly what we must do.
As a child, I was always taught that knowledge can forestall tragedy. At age 7, very sick with measles and at risk of deadly complications, I asked my father why I should have to take that repulsive antibiotic crushed into a spoonful of jam. "Because" he said, in a cool sing-song, "if you don't take it, you may die". That seemed funny. My father would never let me die! But he had shown me a glint of steely reality, and I swallowed the bitter stuff.
Climate change holds a monstrous potential for tragedy. But as is frequently the case, there is opportunity in adversity. To survive, we will have to make massive investments in new kinds of technology and infrastructure. This mobilization of the American economy will create huge numbers of jobs and help assure energy independence and prosperity for generations. To be sure, there are narrow private interests who want to maintain our current state of affairs. They will pay top dollar to shout down hard-won scientific conclusions with well-marketed lies and half-truths. It is our duty as free Americans to see through this public relations nonsense, and trust the collective brilliance of our people to bring us safely into a flourishing future.
In a sense, this is the only choice that we have.
Regan Quinn
Education imperiled by sectarian dogma
I find irony in Karl Priest's complaint about the state of science education in public schools when he cannot accept the reality, the fact, that evolution is the founding principle of all the biological sciences. For an explanation of part of public education's recent failures he need look no farther than attempts by religionists who have undermined curricula in not just science education but history and civics as well.
A well-informed public is necessary for democracy to work, and that begins with school. It is, therefore, government's duty to ensure a quality education for all. Eliminating public schools is counter to that mandate. Private schools do not have to accept students; nor are they necessarily accountable for teaching misinformation. Money is better spent on making sure there are quality educators in schools open to all who value factual information instead of sectarian dogma.
While West Virginian schools may not have rankings worthy of a proud Mountaineer tradition, it seems obvious to me that Mr. Priest's exit from teaching is a positive sign. Schools need dedicated teachers, not misinforming ideologues.

Copying from above:
"This is the second modular school building fire in the last year we have had here in Menlo Park," Schapelhouman said. The building dates from 1986 and was meant to be temporary and thus was exempt from certain fire code regulations, he said.
Just wondering - Modular school buildings are commonly used. Anyone aware of other exemptions (compromises?) in addition to fire code regulations? health, maybe? any other?

Partners in Education (PiE) of Palo Alto raised $4.4 million in 2011-12, surpassing its goal. This year, we will give our donation to Beechwood School instead. I encourage other families in the PAUSD to consider doing so as well. Yes, I've heard all of the arguments for why giving to PiE is important but in the grand scheme of things, really, who needs the money more?
on Sep 18, 2012 at 5:05 pm
CMW - we're giving to both PiE and Beechwood.
on Sep 19, 2012 at 1:04 pm
@ palo alto mom - happy to know you have the means to do so. not all of us in the district do.
on Sep 19, 2012 at 3:49 pm
CMV - much of Palo Alto has the means to donate to both - even if it is a small amount. And its good to know that your students -if you have any - will benefit from PiE $$ whether you donate or not.
Beechwood is also a wonderful school (I think it was actually founded by some Palo Alto families) and deserves any support you can give.
on Sep 19, 2012 at 6:47 pm
My son went to Beechwood in 1986. Not only did he benefit from attending the private school, but I also benefit as well and some of the other parents did too. At that time, Beechwood held a meeting; the first meeting was for parents and children. Right after that a meeting was held for the parents while the children played. At that meeting I was able to talk about something that I had stuffed since I was 5 years old. I learned that there were parents at this particular meeting ... I'll sum it up by saying, "I wasn't the only one that went through what I went through when I was a small child. I got support that evening. I felt so much better and was able to move on. After all these years, thank you so much for Beechwood!!!

I am inspired by the great art on this site and I want to try making my own design. But I don't know what computer program I should use or any techniques. I would be thankful for any help.
Post a comment
bamboota134 weeks agoI use mainly Illustrator.
sheepbiter134 weeks agopreferably free
Chuffy134 weeks agoIllustrator is ultimately the program I intend to be using, but at the moment I use Corel Paint Shop Pro. Unfortunately...
Adobe Illustrator costs $599
and Paint Shop Pro only cost me $29
Illustrator won't make me a better artist of course, I'll just have more tools at my disposal. And less cash :|
Anyway, I cannot stress enough how important it is to learn to create your art using Vectors - since your artwork can be scaled to any size for maximum clarity.
For free software, try using GIMP (PC & Mac). But honestly if you can find $29 and you use a PC, get Paint Shop Pro. If you have a Mac, you're stuck with GIMP or something very expensive. -
SteelCougar134 weeks agoI could never figure out how to do vector graphics in GIMP; you can give it a shot though. It's available for pretty much any platform.
Inkscape is a free vector graphics editor, and is supposed to be similar to Illustrator or CorelDraw. I found it easy to use, at least for the really simple things that I've done with it. It should also be available for almost any platform. -
dakin_costello134 weeks agoWhile I agree with Chuffy that learning to create images with vectors IS a very important thing to do, don't feel afraid to allow your hand to show in your designs. This is, after all, art. Many of our designs are looking more and more like a computer created them with the assistance of a person rather than the other way around. My brother and I create many of our designs in Photoshop with nothing more than a nice, big, high res canvas and a wacom tablet.

I have a multi-threaded process where a file is shared (read and written) by multiple threads. Is there any way a thread can lock one file segment so that other threads cannot access it?
I have tried fcntl(fd, F_SETLKW, &flock)
, but this lock only works for processes, not threads (a lock is shared between all threads in an process).
migrated from unix.stackexchange.com Oct 20 '12 at 22:06
This question came from our site for users of Linux, FreeBSD and other Un*x-like operating systems..
Yes - but not with the same mechanism. You'll have to use something like pthread mutexes, and keep track of the bookkeeping yourself. Possible outline for how to make this work
No. The region-locking feature you're asking about has surprising semantics and it is not being further developed because it is controlled by POSIX. (In fact, it is Kirk McKusick's preferred example of what's wrong with POSIX.) If there is a non-POSIX byte-range lock facility in Linux, I can't find it. There is discussion of the problems of POSIX byte-range locking in a multithreaded world here: http://www.samba.org/samba/news/articles/low_point/tale_two_stds_os2.html. However, if you're concerned only with threads within one process, you can build your own region-locking using semaphores. For example:
Caution: the code compiles but I haven't tested it even a little. |
If you don't need file locks between different processes, avoid the file locks (which are one of the worst designed parts of the POSIX API) and just use mutexes or other shared memory concurrency primitives. |
There are 2 ways you can do it:

Years ago, my husband's parents gifted him with a beat-up old book, McGuffey's Sixth Eclectic Reader (revised edition). These days, McGuffey's is available for free, online, from the Gutenberg Project.
The book itself is too fragile to scan, unfortunately, so no picture here. The book has huge sentimental value because it belonged to my husband's grandmother, Floyda Steiner McClure, who used it in school in Upper Sandusky, OH, about 1890-91.
Interestingly, Floyda practiced her shorthand on the endpapers at the back of the book. She also scribbled some math sums back there. No highlighting in the book, of course. This is a family treasure because it connects us to older generations in a tangible way. How else would we know that Floyda read Shakespeare, Samuel Johnson, Lord Byron, and more?
I'm still researching Floyda's ancestors, specifically William Madison McClure and his father, Benjamin McClure. Lots of McClures, but so far, no hint about where William Madison McClure's family came from. Any descendants out there?

Specificity / Sensitivity
JNK3 (55A8) Rabbit Monoclonal Antibody detects endogenous levels of total JNK3 protein.
Source / Purification
Monoclonal antibody is produced by immunizing animals with a synthetic peptide corresponding to human JNK3.
The stress-activated protein kinase/Jun-amino-terminal kinase SAPK/JNK is potently and preferentially activated by a variety of environmental stresses including UV and gamma radiation, ceramides, inflammatory cytokines, and in some instances, growth factors and GPCR agonists (1-6). As with the other MAPKs, the core signaling unit is composed of a MAPKKK, typically MEKK1-MEKK4, or by one of the mixed lineage kinases (MLKs), which phosphorylate and activate MKK4/7. Upon activation, MKKs phosphorylate and activate the SAPK/JNK kinase (2). Stress signals are delivered to this cascade by small GTPases of the Rho family (Rac, Rho, cdc42) (3). Both Rac1 and cdc42 mediate the stimulation of MEKKs and MLKs (3). Alternatively, MKK4/7 can be activated in a GTPase-independent mechanism via stimulation of a germinal center kinase (GCK) family member (4). There are three SAPK/JNK genes each of which undergoes alternative splicing, resulting in numerous isoforms (3). SAPK/JNK, when active as a dimer, can translocate to the nucleus and regulate transcription through its effects on c-Jun, ATF-2, and other transcription factors (3,5).

Engineers and designers are highly skilled individuals. Forcing them to enter design changes using tables, forms and spreadsheets is unproductive and uneconomical, and it increases the likelihood of human error—this is the way that most instrumentation software systems currently work. For too long, software vendors have denied engineers and designers the simple practicality of a graphical visual engineering interface with "drag and drop" capability and inbuilt intelligence, ensuring changes are automatically replicated into all the associated data and databases.

We're in the throes of it now—and I'm not talking about season premieres or the season for giving. I'm talkin' about football season.
To me, football season means one thing: I no longer get to see my boys on Saturday. I don't even try. Jamie has this little guesthouse he calls "The Dawg House" that's decorated from stem to stern in University of Georgia paraphernalia. That's their sanctuary—a "man cave" as they call it. And if the boys aren't whoopin' and hollerin' at the TV, they're busying themselves over this Fantasy Football thing. I can't say I understand all the fuss about an imaginary game, but Jamie, Bobby and all the guys at the restaurant live for it.
It's not that I don't love football—I was a high school cheerleader for goodness' sake—I just don't understand it all that well. See, my football roots go as deep as my cheerleading outfit, and by that I mean I couldn't have cared less about what was happening on the field. All that really mattered to me was how good I felt when I put on my cheerleading uniform. I loved all the excitement, prancing around and being in the mix of things.
Back when I was a cheerleader, we had very good reputations and were highly thought of—and who wouldn't want to be a part of that? We were out there on the sidelines leading our classmates in school spirit. We would travel to our football games and, oh my gosh, that was probably the best part of it—getting on the bus with the boys. 'Course, it was all pretty innocent back in those days, y'all. My senior year, I was even captain of the cheerleading squad. All us girls had different talents, and I was never into tumbling. I could do cartwheels and things like that but our cheers were simple. Like I said, we were really, really tame by comparison to what they do today. All that fancy booty shaking and basket tossin'—it's a competitive sport now. Gone are the good ol' days of "G-O, let's go!"
But I did have myself another special football moment when I attended the Rose Bowl back in 2011 as the Grand Marshall of the Rose Parade. It was like being voted queen of the prom, just on a much, much bigger scale. And then being on that field for the coin toss took me right back to my cheerleading days. If I didn't think I would've pulled something—I would've turned a cartwheel right then and there. Afterwards, I went up in my little room and I watched the game. It's amazing how different it is when you're in a place where you can actually see the ball instead of staring at some little dot flying across the TV screen. I got so excited. That ol' cheerleader came out. My friend Hollis told me that we need to slip out of the stadium a few minutes before the game was over, but it was a close game and I said, "Hollis, I just can't leave—I've got to see what happens!"
So I guess my point is, you don't have to understand what "1st and 10" means to enjoy this game. Y'all can keep it simple like I do: when someone catches a ball and starts running like a cat on fire, yell your little heart out because everyone appreciates a good cheerleader—as long as you're on their side.
I could bathe in your caramel frosting! Just made it to go on my homemade apple cupcakes - caramel apple cupcakes. It is Devine! Apple season is when football starts too.
By Heather on September 02, 2013
You are adorable in your cheer leading uniform. I was too shy to try out for cheer leading when I was in school. Wish I could see your pretty blue eyes. And, you cook just like I cook!

I graduated from h/s in 1961, u must have been in h/s around 63 or so. Was that your cheerleading uniform? cause when I was in h/s ouruniforms were short pleaded solid colored skirts and sweaters with the emblmn on the front. Sometimes the girls had little short tops but mostly i recall sweatshirt and our team in Ft. Smith, Ark. was Grizzlys My youngest was cheerleader in junior high and high school and yes they went to cheerleading camp. she was the only one who could do the splits and because she had ben into gymnastics all thru grade school she was pretty limber. She got to go to a special camp I believe it was in Tx. I so missed her that summer she was gone. They got to work with professionals and were in compitition. When i was in h/s. cheerleaders wdid not have a good reputation, odd that only 2 or 3 years later u say they did. Most of them came from rich families or they were sluts and popular with the football players and were by no means looked up too. I just can;t believe that as big a place as Georgia that was your cheerleading uniform. Looks pretty plain to me R. H. in Ct.

Paula, I love to watch you on the food channel. I love the measuring cups that you use. I went on line to see about buying them. All I could do was look and cry because there is no way I could afford them. Any way I still love your show. Thanks for all the neat ideas. Lenice

Paula, how fun to read your blogs. I was also a varsity cheerleader and I have to say I had the same experience as you, I really didn't get all the football rules, but I knew defense was when we didn't have the ball and offense was when we did. But I loved my uniform, the pom poms, the glamour of being a cheerleader, the friends I made to this day I am still in touch with 4 of the six girls. It was a big deal, my first love played on the football team, it was a wonderful time. 1976. Lots of fun memories. Thank you for sharing your memories and pictures. xo

If you're going to live in Nebraska, you have to at least like football, and if you can love it, life is good! Growing up, my dad was a referee. I remember him bringing home 3 hamburgers & a bottle of pop for an after game celebration--one each for he and my mom, and one for we 3 girls to share. They were so good! Mom and Dad just celebrated their 65th anniversary last week, but Dad is in memory care, so it was bittersweet. Thanks for conjuring up some good memories! Go Big Red!

I love reading about your early life. It reminds me of my younger days ( smile ). I also want to tell you how much I love your recipes. My daughter said that you and I have a lot in common, BUTTER. WE enjoy the comfort foods. They make me the happiest we I'm cooking.

By Mr. Blaine Bower on October 23, 2012
Love the pic Paula your still as beautiful as ever...and I get the sense that your still a cheerleader at heart. As for football, this is my absolute favourite time of year. I love watching it and playing it. There's something about a cool fall day with the ground covered in colourful leaves. The smell of wood burning fireplaces in the chilly air. The threat of rain looming over in the dark mass of clouds. And the excitement of breaking away from a tackle just before the treeline...TOUCHDOWN!!!! Then when we've won, heading back inside to the smell of that casserole I've been cook'n while we were out, just in time for the 4 o'clock game. AHHH FALL. I'm a Denver fan, but until recently we(Broncos) weren't very present at the play offs. Looking forward to going all the way this year, Yay Peyton! AND I too love fantasy football...especially since in fantasy football I have more Superbowl wins than Pittsburg. I say just try it...watch a game...try the fantasy thing...I tell ya it's addictive.

Hi Mrs.Deen my name is Crawford Moore a person who has been trough a lot in life. No one wants to give me a chance to show my greatness. Because I am a felon. I was raised in a life of crime and has since changed. I am afraid because I can not get a job due to my past. I have five wonderful kids that I can't support due to this. And I have no other choice but to live wrong because no one wants to help for my changes. I have gotten myself an education and all. Need help... Sincerely Crawford Moore 224 321 7466

look: 3.5 | smell: 4.75 | taste: 5 | feel: 3.75 | overall: 4.5
Super huge thanks to Jeff for busting this one out as a nice surprise. In a flip-top growler for around a year, hopefully it has held up okay. It pours out of the growler inky and oily, completely black in color, much like the regular iteration of Zhukov. Understandable, there is basically no head that forms; simply a minuscule, deep-mocha ring that surfaces at the circumference of this black-hole brew and nothing else. Very quiet and still in the glass.
Whatever was lost in terms of appearance can be forgiven as soon as you finally smell this beer - it's absolutely fantastic. Sensational brandy notes, both sweet and warming with fine hints of booze and apples. Rich, dense, fudge-covered chocolate cake, backed with mounds of dark fruits; dates and figs, rolled and covered in brown sugar. It sounds like a diabetic's nightmare, but the sweetness is really monitored so well.
Some warmth brings forth even more aromas; more molasses, more brown sugar, and more, sweet, sweet apple brandy. The coffee that was so heavy in the original Marshal Zhukov's stout seems to have lots it's magic here, but no matter - the apple brandy aging (and possibly a year in the growler) has turned the base beer into a whole new monster, at least aromatically.
I take a sip, and immediately I am both surprised and enthralled to find that the flavor actually does have some intense, roasted coffee notes in it - much akin to the regular Zhukov stout - and it blends perfectly with the other flavors here. Roasty coffee beans, chocolate cake, rich and dark fudge, burnt, sticky toffee, and a whole lotta wet oak in the background.
The apple brandy flows through the entire profile so perfectly. Warm, boozy, and ever-present, yet it's miles and miles away from ever being "hot". This is certainly only of the smoothest inclusions of brandy barrels I've ever tasted. Lots of silky, sweet prunes and dates in the finish, along with more apple-like, boozy brandy and mild after-notes of chocolate and coffee.
Even with virtually no carbonation (although there was still a *touch* left in the growler), this brew was insanely palatable. It was definitely huge on the palate; silky, chewy, thick, and beyond viscous, and there's not doubt that a year of mellowing out did nothing but help. I would imaging that just a touch more carbonation would be excellent, but I still don't have much to complain about at this point.
So out of the 20+ beers that were consumed this night, this beer was far and away the best in show. Just insane, really. Marshal Zhukov is an amazing stout, first and foremost, and tossing that sucker in apple brandy barrels just takes things to a whole different level and gives you a completely out-of-this-world, barrel aged stout. Again, such a huge thanks to Jeff for this nice surprise. What an amazing brew.

On-tap, served in a snifter
This bad boy sits a sinister ink black in the glass. A true motor oil type of body when swirled. A thin dark khaki cap rises and falls quickly, leaving some sporadic bubbles along the edges. The nose is extremely bold and robust. Huge roasted malt, brandy, oak, molasses, licorice, vanilla, and dark Belgian chocolate. On the palate, it follows the nose. Huge roast notes up front, before sticky toffee, licorice, and molasses through the middle. Brandy notes all over the place with vanilla and chocolate presenting in the finish. Whoa boy. I can't get over just how bold this beer is. I wasn't the biggest fan of the regular Zhukov but this beer is phenomenal. I got a huge char presence in the regular Zhukov that seems to be much more subdued and tolerable in this guy. Definitely one of the most in your face beers I have ever had. Big, thick, full body with low carbonation. Lingering roast and brandy just never seems to go away.

look: 2.5 | smell: 4 | taste: 3.5 | feel: 2.5 | overall: 4
A: Poured a sluggish black with almost no carbonation leaving a dirty white ring on the adge with light lacing
S: Rich cocoa, a big whiff of brandy, wood Earthiness and blend of dark fruits and coffee beans
T: Starts with a big deep chocolate, roastiness and brandy plus some old wood and Earthiness which slowly transitions to coffee, dark fruit with the brandy, smokey leather and cocoa still sitting ont he palate. The finish is a bit sweet, rather dry with some light bitterness and booze from like acetone or something
M: Big and thick but flat as a board
O: Good despite being super low on carbonation, the odd booziness.

look: 4 | smell: 4 | taste: 4.5 | feel: 4 | overall: 4.5
Pours a very deep black with a tan head. The head was a litle undersized but did leave a nice degree of lacing around the glass.
Nice strong aroma of alcohol (in this case brandy) with some other notes of chocolate and coffee. The flavor is very spot on to the aroma. A very big beer where the alcohol is the main spotlight. Chocolate does come across but mostly in the finish. The mouthfeel is thick and a little oily and big alcohol.
This was an amazing beer that developed a lot of complexity and if bottled would only have gotten better. If you see this beer order it right away, but be warned you will be sipping on it for a bit.

Pours jet black with a very small ebony head that leaves no retention. No visibility through the pour. Smells of sweetness with hints of coffee. Taste is huge. Super sweet up front with hints of fruit and a nice bitter coffee centered backbone. Mouthfeel is quite viscous. Overall this is amazing. So glad I got to try this.

Reviewed from notes. Had on-tap at the release at CCB tasting room. Poured into a snifter.
A: Jet black with a small tan head. No visible carbonation. Don't know where to put observations about consistency, but this is thick and sticky to the touch.
S: Brandy, alcohol, chocolate, coffee.
T: Everything you would expect from the aroma, but has some sweet caramely flavor also.
M: Thick, sweet, sticky. Alcohol presence is high, punch you in the mouth high.
O: Excellent, and I think the barrel aging helps this beer develop more (and interesting) characteristics. Certainly is a sipping beer!

Summary: As spiritual revolution is transforming the religious landscape of Latin America. Evangelical Protestantism, particularly Pentecostalism, has replaced Catholicism as the leading religion in thousands of barrios on the urban periphery. But in few Latin American nations have Protestants multiplied as rapidly as in Brazil. What accounts for this rise?
Combining historical, political, and ethnographic research, R. Andrew Chesnut shows that the relationship betw ...show moreeen faith healing and illness in the conversion process is integral to the popularity of Pentecostalism among Brazil's poor. While providing analysis of the economic and political factors, Chesnut draws on his extensive interview material to capture his informants' conversion experience. In doing so, he both provides a historical framework for understanding Pentecostalism in Latin America and insight into the motivations and beliefs of the crentes themselves.

Grigory Ivanovich Petrovsky (Russian: Григо́рий Ива́нович Петро́вский , Ukrainian: Григорій Іванович Петровський Hryhoriy Ivanovych Petrovsky) (February 4, 1878 - January 9, 1958) was one of the most prominent Russian revolutionaries of Ukrainian origin,[2] who was the Chairman of the Central Executive Committee of the Soviet Union from December 30, 1922, to January 12, 1938. He also was participant of signing two of the most important documents in the Soviet history: the Treaty on the Creation of the USSR and the Treaty of Brest-Litovsk, as well as one of organizers of the 1932-33 famine in Ukraine.[3]
Early years[edit]
Petrovsky was born in a village of Pechenihy near Kharkiv on February 4 (Old Style - January 22), 1878, in family of a craftsman (some sources claim - son of tailor and laundry lady). He had two siblings. At three little Grigory lost his dad.
After finishing two classes of school at the Kharkiv Theological Seminary in 1889, Petrovsky was dismissed for not be able to pay for his education. Being 11 years old he left education for a job in the city working for a locomotive depot. In 1893 at age of 15 he arrived to Yekaterinoslav (Dnipropetrovsk) where he found a job at the Bryansk Metallurgical Factory (today - Petrovsky Factory).
In 1895 Petrovsky joined the revolutionary movement and in 1897 enrolled in the Russian Social Democratic Labour Party (RSDRP) and joined the "Union in the fight for the liberation of the worker's class" as well as the Yekaterinslav committee of RSDRP. At this period of time he actively participated in the political agitation for the Bolsheviks from Mykolaiv to Mariupol, from Donets basin to Kharkiv, for which he was arrested in 1900 and 1903.
During the Russian Revolution of 1905 Petrovsky became one of the organizers and leaders of the Dnipropetrovsk City Council of Worker's Deputies and the local Battle Strike Committee. However, he soon was forced to flee and for a brief period of time emigrated to Germany. In 1907 he returned to Mariupol where he worked as a turning specialist and continued his revolutionary activity at the factory "Russian Providence" (today - part of Ilyich Steel & Iron Works).
Parliament and revolution[edit]
In 1912 Petrovsky was elected a deputy to the Russian 4th State Duma as a representative of workers of the Yekaterinoslav Governorate for Bolshevik faction. During this time he also was a chief editor of Pravda. In January 1913 Petrovsky was included into the Central Committee of RSDRP. It is known that in the Duma he spoke on 32 occasions, while the text of his 21st speech was prepared personally by Vladimir Lenin. In his speeches Petrovsky was addressing the issues related to improving working conditions and life of miners and workers of Donets basin.
With the start of World War I in November 1914 he was arrested along with all the six Bolshevik members of the parliament (Joseph Stalin, Yakov Sverdlov, Lev Kamenev, and others) and in February 1915 was sentenced to a lifetime exile in Turukhansky Krai (today - the northern part of Krasnoyarsk Krai).
After the Bolshevik seizure of power Petrovsky was appointed People's Commissar for the Interior Affairs between November 30, 1917 and March 1, 1919.[4] In this post he oversaw the activities of the Cheka and was one of the advocates of the Red Terror, he wrote in his order "A huge number of hostages has to be taken to the bourgeoisie, in cases of resistance these hostages have to be shot in masses(....) No hesitation in the application of the terror"[5] He was a member of the Russian delegation during signing the Treaty of Brest-Litovsk in 1917.
On December 30, 1922, he became the represent of Ukraine SSR in the USSR Central Executive Committee after signing the decree for the creation of the Soviet Union. According to the BBC, "Petrovksy saw himself as an internationalist, and rejected Ukrainian nationalism".[2] He was co-chairman of the USSR Central Executive Committee until January 12, 1938, when he was elected deputy Chairman of the Presidium of the Supreme Soviet of the USSR.
Survivor of the Great Terror[edit]
He was not purged during the Great Terror but he was shocked and saddened by the executions of close friends as Stanislav Kosior, Vlas Chubar and Sukhomlin.[6] Soon after the USSR celebrated his sixteenth birthday he was interrogated by Joseph Stalin who said to Petrovsky "We shoot people like you but you will be spared"[6] and then excluded from the Communist Party and deprived of his datchas and apartments.[6] After a year without a job he was made, in 1940, the Director of the Revolution Museum of the USSR in Moscow and never returned to politics again. During the second world war, after the death of his son Leonid,[7] he asked to Stalin in a letter to release his son Peter who was imprisoned but he was subsequently shot.[6] Petrovsky died in 1958.
Petrovsky's body is interred near the Kremlin wall in Moscow.[2]
The city Dnipropetrovsk (originally named Yekaterinoslav) was named after Petrovsky in 1926.[2][8] Some Ukrainians think the city should have been renamed after Ukraine gained independence in 1991.[2]
A statue of Petrovsky in Kiev (the capital of Ukraine) was demolished late November 2009, just days before the annual Ukrainian commemorating of the victims of the Holodomor. President of Ukraine Viktor Yushchenko had issued a decree ordering the removal of monuments to Soviet leaders, "in memory of the victims of the Holodomor". Ukrainian historians' consensus considers Petrovsky one of the main executors of Stalin's policies in Ukraine. Other historians, like Vasyl Marochko, a member of an official commission that investigated the Holodomor, say that when Petrovsky realised the extent of the famine, he pleaded twice with Stalin to provide Ukrainians with more food but this request went unheeded.[2]

The Atheist Foundation of Australia welcomes the news that George Pell has been promoted within the Catholic Church to the position of Prefect for the Economy of the Holy See. A main function of this role is management and reform of the Vatican's finances.
The news continues to flow from the Royal Commission into Institutional Child Sexual Abuse of the systemic cover ups and stand-over tactics used by churches to prevent justice for the victims. It's reasonable to anticipate that examples of abuse of this type are going to continue to become public and that the public outrage and compensation claims will continue to grow.
