I'll post some pictures asap. Bad news....the armatures were wrong. The waterjet guy cut them at the wrong scale and they are too tight of a fit. I am having them redone. They should be ready tomorrow.

Don't laugh but check out what I built tonight.... I rented him out on a Lucasfilm/Cingular commercial for the UK. He leaves tomorrow. Bummed out. We threw these together after work so they aren't perfect by any means.

I'm more in awe of that workshop.... whoa.
LOL. It looks like Boba just got a new pair of VANS.
You look like a proud papa showing off baby pics! Very cool. :cheers
Thanks. He came out okay for throwing it together. The shop is approximately 100,000 sq. ft. It's a big shop.
This was for a LucasFilm/Cingular commercial? Now that would be a rewarding justification of your work! I usually get copies of Cingular commercials before they are released. I'll keep an eye out so I can lay my hands on that tape.
100,000 square feet?!? The way I tend to start a new project before finishing the last, I could probably junk that place up in no time, lol!
That's awesome John!
JOHN!!!!! You painted the gauntlets & the jet pack the wrong color!!!:lol They gotta be green man!!!:lol Just kidddin bud...Looks awesome. Is that a new Postmortem1 webly hes holding???;) You should take a closeup pic of that too! BTW, how did you get your manny to balance so perfect like that...without a base even!!! Lookin sweet man.
He balances by himself. I don't know why. Even with the jet pack, he stands up
There's a small stand behind his left leg that makes him keep balance. You are supposed to screw that leg down to a stand but I hadn't at that point. That leg helps him balance. Later I made a quickie stand and screwed it down.
LOL. That is a ESB blaster.
Looks excellent!
Man, looks like all that work is paying off eh?
I like it but the girth is all wrong!
lol ESB gun for ROJ siut
hey john! who did you get that jump suit form? I really like it!
Hey. That's all I had.
who did you buy it from? I need one. lol
The jumpsuit came from Skygunbro on EBAY. The vest came with it. The vest was temporary to get the mannequin done. I only had a day to get it done so there it is.
thanks. so who can I hope to see at DragonCon?
OKAY guys! The Webleys are done! I will post pics of the Webleys layed out on the floor. I need to get payments going so we can start shipping these. All parts are done except we are still pouring the scopes. Please PM me regarding payments. PM me even if you have already sent payment please. I would like PMs with shipping info and phone numbers etc.
Thanks guys.
The suspense is killing me!!!!:lol Can't wait to see those pics!!!;)
So uh... John. where are the pics of Boba's EE-3 collection?:)
John...Please contact me!
Here are some progress pictures. Below are pictures of the steel armatures that are cast into the guns. This steel armature increases the weight of the gun but is necessary to keep it strong and rigid. I estimate the total weight of the EE-3 to be around 6 pounds.
Here is the assembly line in progress. These guns give me a headache.
Egads! I hate little parts!
John, even though you might hate all those little parts , I love the fact that you haven't forgotten your attention to detail! These pics prove to me that this is going to be the most beautiful Hypefirm weapon you've put together yet:thumbsup -- I can hardly wait for mne to show up at my doorstep! :love
Looking great John. I know we have all said it, but thanks again for doing this.
LOL. No thanks necessary. I'm just jaded. It's not the worst project but it has been trying.
I bet they are a pain in the backside...but man...they are really looking awesome John. Thanx a ton for all the work you are putting into these:)
Awesome! Just plain awesome! Man, your making me giddy like a little girl with those pics. http://www.tk923.homestead.com/egg/tarts.gif
Those newest pics are really making me kick myself for not getting on the list for one of these. Any chance you'll do a second run?
Yeah. I'll be doing a second run soon. They can be ordered one at a time too. The run was just a way of getting the prices down.
I have a feeling there are plenty of us interested in a second run, but John probably hasn't seen daylight in awhile. (You mean there's more to life than sleep and work?!?) :lolQuote:
C*E*N*O*B*Y*T*E said:
Absolutely awesome looking!
The progress is coming along very well.
We are all going to be very proud to own one of these and I am sure many more will be wanting them once we all have been able to show ours around town!
:love :love :love :love :love :love :love :love :love :love :love :love :love :love :love :love :love :love :love :love :love :love :love :love
WOW just gata hope some one doesnt look in the shop and think your importing illegal wepons.:lol
:D whaa, thats awesome!
I've been lurking through this thread from time to time, and I gotta say...WOW. That is the sharpest rifle I've ever seen! Clean casting and awesome durability. John, I went to the website and saw the buildup on Kenny's barrel. Go ahead and put me at the top of the ROTJ list!
hey John. do you shorten the barrels on the rubber webley's? they look loke they get shorter at the top of the production line. It could just be because there farther away than the others but it looks like the 2 top ones just suddenly shorten by about an inch
Nothing has been shortened on the Webley. It is an optical illusion from the angle of the picture.
Also, there are the brackets that the scope attach to, whuch may add to that illusion.
Any word on when we might expect to get these? I see the paid list is still a tad sparce. I'd love to get this in time for my first Fett trooping event the weekend of April 2nd and 3rd.
Thanks for all the updates, can't wait to get my mitts on the rifle!
These are looking so sweet. You have paypal. Sorry it took me so long.
Hi guys. These are basically ready to ship. We should be attaching flash tubes tomorrow night. They will be boxed on Satuday and shipped to those who have paid on Monday. Ugh. Been a tough week at work. Sorry I haven't posted.
Thanks man! These are going to rock!
Hey John, just wondering if you had any updates for us. I know we're all extremely excited about your incredible work.
Anything on when these will be heading out? Just wondering.:fettesb
starting to get a little worried here. Ive called John 3 times so far and no answer. hope nothing bad happened.
Hello....anybody there...hehe?
Just wondering if these were gonna be here to us by April 2nd and 3rd seeing that some of us are slated to go out in Fett fashion for the "Midnight Madness" at local toy stores?
Waiting on the edge of my seat!:fettesb
Anyone hear anything from John? Just feeling abit concerned about not hearing anything from him. Hope all is well? :confused
I am not sure what happened to John. I can only assume that he got swamped with working on POTC 2&3 and filming the Cingular Commercials. THe last time I talked to him was last tuesday and I have been trying to get ahold of him by phone ever since. Everything goes straight into VM so he is more then likely on set because they have a no cell phone rule on set from what he explained. I am confident everything is ok but some sort of contact would be helpful.
well good news. I got ahold of John and he verified that he has been VERY buisy and has most of the guns done. he hasnt been on because he had new floors put in so he hasnt had a computer avalible. he said he should be back tommorow. so no wories anymore
That's good news! It'll calm some nerves round here! :p
Hmmm...maybe, but C3 is getting closer :facepalmQuote:
gorman said:
I do have faith though.
Cool! Glad everythings A-OK.:thumbsup:)
Yea, I too was able to get ahold of John at his office this afternoon. He said that his company is doing the Nickelodeon Kids Choice Awards and has him whipped!
Well.. I was hoping to get mine before the 15th of April, but that may not happen now.. good thing I've got my back up!
Hi Guys. Sorry for being MIA. I just read my PMs and such. I have my computer back up as of last night. I'm sorry for the delays. Kid's Choice Awards are a killer. They shoot this Saturday. I can't wait until they are over. I will have these shipped by Monday at the latest I swear. I'll be online tonight after about 8:00 pm Pacific time.
Great to hear that you are doing good man :thumbsup
:) Monday is my new favorite day now!
Any updates? Did they get shipped? Why is the sky blue?
I just got off the phone with john. He let me know that 4 of the blasters were shipped yesterday and he is going to ship out 4 more today. He will try and contact those that have them coming to give you the tracking numbers and ETA's
You still didn't answer my last question! :p
E2K13 said:
Dont suppose he told you who they shipped to? I know, whishful thinking.
gorman said:
Ok Gorman, Just for you:
Why is the sky blue?
Our patrons are a curious bunch. Or maybe they just want to test us out. :-) Here's the reason the sky is blue. This explanation was written for us by Carl Aude, who works at NASA. The answer is based in part on the explanation in
Hecht, Eugene. Optics. 2nd Edition. New York: Addison-Wesley, 1988. pp. 293-294.
Light from the sun, like light from many sources, contains all frequencies (colors) of visible light. All the frequencies together look white, and are called white light. The first thing you might learn about light is it goes in a straight line. Next you learn there are four exceptions to this rule: reflection, refraction, diffraction, and scattering. Scattering is when light bounces off things like molecules. If you were in space the sun would look very bright and the sky would look absolutely black, since light normally goes in a straight line. But here on Earth, light is scattered by molecules of air as it passes through the atmosphere. Lord Rayleigh was the first to research the dependence of scattering on the frequency of light. He found that scattering increases in proportion to the fourth power of the frequency of the light. This means that light of higher frequencies (blue) is scattered much much more than light of lower frequencies (red). While most light passes straight on through to the Earth's surface, there is so much sunlight to start with that significant amounts of light are scattered and due to its higher frequency, the bulk of the scattered light is blue. It is scattered in all directions, but much of it makes its way to the Earth again, coming in from all directions, and this makes the sky blue. This is also the reason for the color of sunsets. As the sun approaches the horizon it comes to us through a greater angle and passes through the atmosphere for a much greater distance. First, this causes the longer wavelengths of red, orange, and yellow to be scattered more so that they color the nearby sky. Second, it causes the blue light to be scattered away even more and not reach us as much.
He did not have the list in front of him because he was in the shop. He did however say he would post which ones shipped out.Quote:

Thanks Eddie. Now I can tell my kids I know why the sky is blue.
Dude.. that's cheating. You should have typed that yourself!
hey john? Hey John?
I know this might seem like a stupid question...but are we going to have thses all by CIII? These were supposed to have gone out on 3/17...and now only a few are being shipped at a time? It's understandable that John has a VERY BUSY schedule...but can something be done? John?:fettesb
You will all have them by C3. Sorry for being so busy guys. Everyone will have them next week the latest. I will be shipping the balance via next day. Please don't stress out. I will get them to you if I have to bring them to C3 myself.
Thanks for the updates John.
thank you !!!
A BIG thankyou from all the nerfs in the herd, as well! :)
Thanks John!
John... man, you alright. thanks a bunch
Going to make a ROTJ EE-3 any time soon? Or just stick with the ESB EE-3.
Any further word on these being sent out? 1 week and counting till C3...
UGH. Sorry guys. The balance will be overnighted. AAAAaaaaah. I can't take the pressure and sleep deprivation.
I dont know, getting no sleep makes everything more fun.
My eyeballs burn and I've got a sinus infection from painting without a respirator. Brilliant!
Dude, do not kill yourself!
Anything? Anyone get their rifles yet? Just wondering?:fettesb
Nope, not here. Looks like this Fett will go Rifle-less at C3.
nothin yet:(
Come on John, dont let us down!
hey hey hey!!!!! these things take time (note, im not going to c3). im in no rush
John let me know this evening that he overnighted a bunch of the blasters today.

Pics man!!!!!! Lets see that bad boy;)Quote:
SEEKER said:

Congrats Seeker! Can't wait to see more people getting them.
Mine came today as well!
Eddie is a happy boy!

THE HUNDRED OF COTTESLOE Footnotes
Cottesloe Hundred comprises the three Domesday hundreds of Cottesloe, Mursley and Yardley, which were grouped together by the latter part of the 13th century. (fn. 1) The ancient hundreds were as follows: Cottesloe Hundred, (fn. 2) which contained the parishes of Aston Abbots, Creslow, Cublington, Grove, Hardwick with Weedon, Linslade, Mentmore with Ledburn, Whitchurch, Wing and Wingrave with Rowsham; Mursley Hundred, containing Drayton Parslow, Dunton, Hoggeston, Great Horwood with Singleborough, Little Horwood, Mursley with Salden, Stewkley, Swanbourne, Tattenhoe, Whaddon with Nash and Winslow (fn. 3) ; Yardley Hundred, containing Cheddington, Cholesbury, Drayton Beauchamp, Edlesborough with Dagnall, Hadnall and Northall, Hawridge, Ivinghoe with Aston, Horton and Seabrook and St. Margaret, Marsworth, Pitstone with Nettlesden and Friesden, and Slapton. (fn. 4) The names of all three hundreds survived, however, into the 17th century, (fn. 5) although they do not appear in the Parliamentary Survey of this group in 1653, (fn. 6) nor in the assessment of the six months' subsidy for the maintenance of the Army and Navy, granted at the end of 1659, to which the Cottesloe Hundreds contributed £1,181 5s., (fn. 7) where the parishes appear in alphabetical order. (fn. 8)
Creslow is assessed, probably by an error, under Waddesdon Hundred, and Little Horwood, Hoggeston, Tattenhoe, Cholesbury and Hawridge are not mentioned in the Domesday Survey, nor any of the members of the parishes enumerated above except Singleborough, Salden, Aston and Horton. These three hundreds were Crown hundreds, paying in 1653 £19 19s. 6d. yearly in hidage and rents and £5 6s. 8d. in fines and amercements from the court leet, then usually held twice in the year at Edlesborough, and from the three weeks' court, then reported as not held lately. (fn. 9)

How We Became a Nation of Heretics
Readers familiar with Ross Douthat's column might expect his new book to be moderately conservative and carefully nuanced. It is neither.
Anyone who likes maps, religion and useful or odd bits of data will have fun poking around the website created by the Association of Religion Data Archives, which now includes information from the 2010 census. The site allows for all kinds of searches by denomination and region.
For example, the curious can find out what U.S. counties have the highest or lowest percentage of Episcopalians.
Spring books
There are probably few reference books that vacationers will drag down to the beach this summer. And though I make a living in academia, there aren't many works of reference that I want to read from cover to cover. I love history because I love stories, storytelling and engrossing narratives—not because I'm taken with the facts, figures and dates that populate reference books.
Contemporary Trends
The Census Bureau avoids collecting data about religion. So most of what we know is based on what people reveal to independent researchers.

SUNY New Paltz to host Fort Lauderdale area alumni reception
NEW PALTZ - Dr. Donald P. Christian, president of the State University of New York at New Paltz, will host a reception for College alumni on Tuesday, Jan. 22, at the Fort Lauderdale Westin Hotel, 400 Corporate Lane, Fort Lauderdale. There is a suggested donation of $10.
The reception will be from 6 - 8:30 p.m. Mrs. Sandra Christian will accompany the president.
"We have many alumni and friends on the East Coast of Florida and we hope to meet with a good number of them," Christian said. "There are many good things happening on the campus, and it is important that we let alumni know that their alma mater is maintaining the high standards of academic excellence that alumni experienced when they were students." A short video will provide alumni with a glimpse of today's SUNY New Paltz campus and community.
Christian pointed to recent rankings and other indicators of progress. Kiplinger's Personal Finance named SUNY New Paltz among the top 100 best values in the nation for public four-year institutions that deliver a high quality education at an affordable price. Princeton Review ranks the College high as both a best value and as a green campus noted for its sustainability practices. SUNY New Paltz has more applications for first-year admission than any other SUNY college – a distinction it has held for the last 23 years.

About the Author
There are many ways to approach the study of water. Consider involving students in a community action project, helping students bring awareness to their community about the water shortages and the need for conservation. Regardless of where we live on Earth, we all are sharing and using the same water. Below are some basic steps you might follow as you develop an action plan for you and your students.
Students should have a basic understanding of the water or hydrological cycle. This should include the idea that the same water which was around when the dinosaurs roamed the Earth is with us now.
Continue preparing students by utilizing online resources and lessons to build on their own awareness of water and conservation issues.
Develop a plan of action. Select a target audience of younger students, your local school, other schools, businesses in the community, or a combination of these groups.

I may have been a little unfortune, but my two kudus are shot at 340 and 330 meters range....So I vote for my 7 mm RemMag with a 160 grains premium bullet.
The best hunt are the one in your dreams, the next best are the one in your memories.

My Ruger 77R in .338WM with 225 gr. or 250 gr. bullets. Had her for over 25 years and she never let me down. Shot a Kudu back in April with it, he went from standing to lying flat and never moved. That's how I spell success!

Bart has twisted me. I took the 300WM out all this fall determined to go bigger.
Developed a load this summer, tested it, shot it at targets.
Then took it out and tried to use it on game.
I missed a deer at a distance I typically would not. Doubt started to creep in.
Took one at close range.
Then I missed one at two hundred yards, prone on a bipod. I was now convince I could not shoot and should take up knitting.
Now I had to figure this out or it was not going to have an opportunity to go after Kudu.
To the range in the farmers field at lunch.
9 inches high at 100 yards. hmmm. Scope is off. No idea why.
Adjust accordingly.
I shot a 3006 afterward and it felt like a pop gun. hmmm
Between me and the scope I figured out the reasons for the misses, finally.
A 300WM is not a .270 and I have to hold it differently. The 300WM is not a popgun.
Learning how to shoot a larger caliber is interesting.
The results:
One shot, double lung Elk. Perfect placement. Still couldn't shoot the African shoulder shot.
I did the back up shot on the Moose. Mine was the lower shot.
Heart Lung.jpg
Finally put a shot into the shoulder for the top of the heart double lung shot. Down in 70 yards.
Attachment 15079
Four holes in the chest (entrance/exit) ZERO blood trail in the snow. Four drops where the bullet exited then nothing.
With snow, no trackers required. we have it so easy here.
Eland and Kudu beware. Bart's making me bring the big gun.Practice whispering before you leave for Africa!
A Legend in my own mind!

I think if Plains game is all your after and Kudu is the biggest the 7x57 would be grand... I have a Mannilicher Shoenauer in 7x57 I would love to use on a kudu sometime!!!

Kudu rifle
So what did you kill your last Kudu with? Did it work OK? What else will you be hunting? Are you taking only one rifle? So many questions.
Both your 7x57 and your .375 H&H will easily kill a Kudu, as will many cartridges in between, IF you place your shot correctly.
I shot my first Kudu with my 7mm Rem mag, my last with my .375 RUM, both worked fine. If I was to hunt another Kudu I'd probably use my .300 Weatherby. They all like to have their turn.

Right at this very moment after eating a mushroom, garlic & salami pizza & drinking a few Jim Beams, I would take my Weatherby Mk V 300 with 180gr North Fork SS.
If you asked me tomorrow I'd probably go with my CZ550 9.3x62 with 250gr North Fork SS or my Winchester Model 70 Safari Express 375 Ruger with 270gr North Fork SS.
It sure is nice having a choice.

My daughter is taking her 257Roberts with 120gr Swift A-Frame bullets at 2899FPS. I will use my 338win mag with 225gr Swiftt A-frame bullets as back-up.
Planned to take my Ultra-Lite 30-06 with 165gr Swift A-frame bullets but the best I can do is 2750FPS which does not allow for longer shots as easy. I am going to see what I can get those bullets to do out of my 300win mag.

My daughter liked hers so much she shot the barrel out when she was younger. Last year I had a Douglas air-gage SS barrel installed and it is a tack driver. What surprised me was the load I worked up for it with the 120gr Swift A-Frame bullets are doing 2900 FPS over my chronograph. To bad that is with a discontinued powder. The best I could get my 25-06 to do with the same bullet is 3000FPS. It was not worth taking my rifle for only 100FPS increase.
So now I am considering my 30-06 as the PH has one and I can "shoot up all my ammo" before returning to the USA. If I cannot get what I want out of it then I might take the 300Win mag. Weather permitting I will do some load testing tomorrow.

Hi bebo, congrats on having a very nice Safari Rifle. Mine is a new 375 H&H. I have the barrel removed & had a new 24" barrel contoured to original spec & the iron sights.
& chambered it for the 375 Ruger which I believe is a much better case design. It is a few hunderd feet per sec quicker. I have it throated so I can load to an overall length of 3.600". The advantage here is that I can load the incredibly good 300gr North Fork SS without intruding into the powder space. This bullet at 2700 fps or the 270gr North Fork SS at 2900 fps is enough for anything I will ever hunt on this Planet. My mounts as always are Warne quick detach levers & again as always a Zeiss Victory HT.
My very favorite rifles are the new Win Model 70, CZ 550 & of course the Weatherby Mark V of which I've had 6 or 7 maybe 8. I have on order a new Weatherby Mark V Custom Ultramark in 300 Wby Mag. I have had several 300s since the mid 70s. They kill like a bolt of lightning. cheers, Beau.

I will never be without my CZ550 9.3x62. This is very close to being my favorite cartridge.

Sylva crunching budget to pay for police department move

Renovating the old library on Main Street in Sylva for a new police department is on something of a hiatus until a new town board convenes.
The town board will get a new member following this month's elections. Lynda Sossoman will replace current town Commissioner Ray Lewis. Sossoman said Monday that she fully supports the renovation of the old library for a town police department.
Town leaders must identify where the estimated $700,000 needed for the job will come from, interim Town Manager Mike Morgan said.
"The next thing we would want is to get an architect to do detailed plans — but (commissioners) are not there, yet," he said.
Until then, the 15-member town police — counting only fulltime employees — will continue to squeeze into the current police department on Allen Street. The officers share just 1,000 square feet. The old library is 6,400 square feet in size.
Jackson County owned the old library, but agreed to a property swap at the town's request earlier this year. The county gave Sylva the old library building on Main Street, and in exchange the town gave the county the former chamber of commerce building on Grindstaff Cove Road.
As takes place currently, any prisoners detained by police will be transported immediately to the county jail at the administration building instead of being held at the police department.
Sylva merchants have repeatedly requested a greater presence by town police on Main Street. In addition to the prospect of having the department located physically there, a new police officer was recently assigned to foot patrols downtown.

We are readers, bloggers, and Goodreads members (not authors) who, inspired by those who have already taken a stand, have come together in an effort to stop the bullying we have seen on not only the GR fora, but other online fora as well (i.e. Amazon, AW, etc.) With the information we find online, it is our mission to expose the outrageous behaviour of those commonly known as the GR bullies.
Please note, we do not encourage harassment or attacks against the bullies of any kind. We do not encourage our readers to contact them in any way. We are simply here to expose their bullying behaviour.
The bullies are under the impression that any reaction to them is about critical reviews, using the argument that they have a right to express their opinions. We are not here to fight against critical reviews. That is not what our campaign is about. It is about their bullying behaviour towards others which is becoming increasingly disturbing. We are here to expose that.
I am the Greek Goddess of Wisdom and Truth who seeks to destroy evil and thwart those who engage in evil practices. My chief priorities are to bring good people together and organise them in our campaign to erdicate the online abuse of others. I labour restlessly for the cause and will not cease until these reprobates are stopped. Be on your guard, scoundrels!
I am the boy who refuses to grow old and flies through the Nevernever in search of the notorious Captain Hook. All it takes is a little pixie dust! With a strong sense of justice and quick to help those in danger, I have returned from Neverland to rid the world of scurvy pirates! It's time the villains walk the plank! Tick. Tock. Tick. Tock.
They call me Johnny Be Good because I have a tendency to be bad. Very bad. Especially to bullies. It has been said that I will say whatever I need to say on our site to stop perpetrators in their tracks and prevent them from terrorizing others. Bully beware! I am watching you!
I am Experiment 626 from the planet Euro, where our technology is so much more advanced than Earth's that your most powerful supercomputers, to me, are tinker toys. What you call your World Wide Web is a very basic, rudimentary form of our cyber world back home. My friends, the other experiments from the planet Euro, and I are here to seek out all the electronic information on the bullies we can find and report it to home base. Believe me, if there is information that exists out there, we will find it.
Hey there! *giggle* Name's Tink. I am the best faerie friend of Peter Pan who has come all the way from Neverland to help in the effort to rid the world of scurvy pirates. But instead of mending pots and pans, I flit in and out of the online fora looking for bully mischief so that I can report it to Peter and his gang of lost boys. You'll know when I've been around. I always leave a twinkling trail of pixie dust in my path. Take care not to inhale it. Teehee!

Dinner vs. Child
Anchovies: The New Salt
Every other Thursday, we bring you Nicholas Day -- on cooking for children, and with children, and despite children. Also, occasionally, on top of.
Today: Why anchovies make everything better, even for kids.
Time flies like a banana: it has been a year since I hectored you about feeding your child sardines. That was the only time I have ever hectored you, I think. Most of the time I just mumble outlandish, deeply un-child-friendly suggestions into my shoes, and then I go eat cereal out of the box when you're not looking.
But people: you liked the sardines. You wrote in to say, basically, me too. So let's do this again: why are you not feeding your child anchovies already?
Stay with me here.
More: The Sardine That Saved Dinner
I have never bought into the idea that children gravitate toward gentle tastes.
Clearly some do! The child who will only eat white food exists; my wife was once that child. (Someday I want to hear about a child who only eats green food. I am willing to bet that such a child is alive in Brooklyn today.) But as many children gravitate toward aggressive tastes. They like food in primary colors: olives, feta, sardines.
It's odd. There are children who want their food pitched at a low, reassuring hum. And then there are children who want their food turned up to eleven.
This makes no sense if you think of taste in terms of gentleness or aggressiveness. But it makes a lot of sense in terms of subtlety or obviousness. I do not mean to slander your child, who is obviously exceptional, but it should be said: children are not especially subtle creatures. Subtlety is apparently located in some recondite section of the prefrontal cortex which doesn't develop until age 26. Subtlety for Isaiah is when he says YES and then pauses and says NO.
Children don't gravitate toward gentle tastes. They gravitate toward obvious tastes. They tend to like tastes that are either YES or NO. The white food demographic is NO. And the anchovy demographic is YES. We tend to think of the latter as very challenging and adult, and the former as very child-like and timid. The child who eats anchovies is supposedly the adventurous eater. But both children want the same all-caps typeface.
I like anchovies in part because I feel, very vaguely, that my children should be eating more oily seafood than they are, and oily small fish are the simplest way to solve this problem.
But that's peripheral: I like anchovies mostly because—and this an ancient anchovy koan—they make my cooking taste better than it actually is. They are the deathless friend of the last-minute, how-can-we-be-out-of-peanut-butter cook. They do not make things taste more like anchovies: like salt, they make it taste more like itself—a deeper, richer, more convincing version of itself. In this house, they disappear in these ways:
Hearty greens: Sauté garlic in olive oil, then melt in three or four anchovies. (I use the oil kind. I know I am wrong.) Add the raw greens, a little water, and sauté, covered, for five or so minutes.
Salads: See Amanda's feisty salad camp. On radishes. On kale. For bagna cauda dressing. I have nothing to add. (Fine: Genius anchovy vinaigrette. And fiveandspice's anchovy aioli.)
Pasta: See hearty greens, plus chopped toasted walnuts or bread crumbs. The greens themselves are delicious but optional. (If post-bedtime, add drastically more garlic and anchovies and some dried chilies. There is no better bachelor meal. It is a bachelor meal in part because having consumed it you can be confident of remaining a bachelor.)
In case your small humans are suspicious, take note: the anchovies in all the above are either invisible or at least no larger than speck-size. They will never know.
The recipe below is for pissaladière, the onion-anchovy pizza from southern France. Caution: these anchovies are visible.
Mine is not a real pissaladière: it uses a more or less standard pizza dough; the dough should be thicker, or enriched. I would do that, but if I did I would never actually make it: when I make pissaladière I am almost always doing so unplanned. And pissaladière is the perfect pantry pizza: all you need are onions, anchovies, thyme. (For extra anchovy goodness, you can smear anchovy paste on the dough.)
It looks sophisticated. It looks adventurous. It is neither. It is shameless. And it is obvious.
Pantry Pissaladière
Makes one very large rectangle of onion-anchovy goodness
The Dough
2 1/3 cups bread flour (or 333 grams)
1/4 teaspoon instant yeast
1 teaspoon salt, plus a pinch (or 6 grams)
1 cup lukewarm water (or 220 grams)
The Toppings
3 large onions, sliced (about a couple of pounds worth, very roughly)
1 can of anchovies
1/4 cup kalamata olives, chopped
olive oil
fresh or dried thyme, a sprinkling
See the full recipe (and save and print it) here.

Protip: if you run out of olive oil, drizzle the oil from the anchovies over the crust. It works just as well, if not better. And if you're in a REAL rush, you can get away with using a premade pizza crust like Boboli. (I'm still partial to homemade, though.)

Well, I don't live in Brooklyn (Middle East) but I was the child who ate mostly green food. I adore green vegetables and I've yet to meet a vegetable I didn't end up liking. My parents, at the dinner table, would say to my siblings, "eat your greens". When they got to me it was, "eat your meat"!

Love everything about this post. Yum yum yum. One of my favorite pastas is dressed with an anchovy-garlic-red pepper flake olive oil (all heated briefly in a small skillet) and tossed with toasted bread crumbs. Cheese is not necessary. Kids gobble it up. Must try your pissaladiere soon.

Yay! Yes! It's like you went into my brain and pulled out all my thoughts on anchovies and put them way better than I ever do, which is probably why I mostly haven't yet convinced the other people around me that anchovies are little flavor miracles. Is it weird that I'm trying to eat as many strong and diverse flavors as possible right now to try to acclimate baby to them already through amniotic fluid? Maybe it's not weird but it's probably weird to mention it publicly. Oops. Soo, anyway, your pissaladiere looks delicious.

Your pissaladiere is gorgeous. And many in Nice are made with puff pastry, not yeast pastry. Now I have to make that this weekend. It's okay to use anchovies in oil. Much easier than the salted ones... (imho)

I love anchovies. Ortiz are the best, I think. I have purchased a huge can, bigger than I expected, of the salt packed but have not ventured into the preparing of them.

Anchovies do make everything better,and I will have to try your pissaladiere. I have found that they add umami in many places. One of the dishes of which I am proudest is lamb shank cooked with anchovy and wild mushroom. See the post here for the motivation, recipe and variations.

#22355 new enhancement
Template stack - Beyond parent/child theme relationships
Reported by: | johnjamesjacoby | Owned by: | |
Milestone: | Awaiting Review | Priority: | normal |
Severity: | normal | Version: | |
Component: | Themes | Keywords: | has-patch |
Focuses: | Cc: |
Description (last modified by johnjamesjacoby)
Robust plugins (BuddyPress, bbPress, et all) are unable to break out of the parent/child restrictions that WordPress imposes on template output. For these plugins to include their own template parts, elaborate code must be written to hook into several different execution points, requiring an intimate knowledge of the inner workings of WordPress's template loading system.
Create a stack of template locations, and allow WordPress to transverse this array following the same STYLESHEETPATH/TEMPLATEPATH order it always has, while also enabling additional paths to be added with a priority (similar to the filters API.)
The attached patch includes two new functions in wp-includes/template.php:
- register_template_stack()
- get_template_stack()
Register template stack is a wrapper for the 'template_stack' filter. get_template_stack() is a variation of apply_filters() that returns the array of filtered template locations.
A modification to wp-settings.php calls register_template_stack() two times, passing get_stylesheet_directory() and get_template_directory() as callbacks, to initialize the core parent/child relationship, ensuring complete backwards compatibility.
This allows for plugins to register additional paths in the template loader hierarchy, and enables plugins that may come with their own default template parts the option of registering a fallback template location.
This works with both locate_template() and get_template_part(), and has the added benefit removing duplicate items inside of get_template_stack(), resulting in avoiding an additional file system check should the parent and child themes be the same.

comment:11 in reply to: ↑ 10 johnjamesjacoby — 16 months ago
Replying to scribu:
A usage example from start to finish would be helpful.
Imagine a plugin registers a custom post type 'foo' and wants to bundle templates for twentytwelve support. This plugin would:
- Call: register_theme_stack( 'my_plugin_twentytwelve_template_path', 10 );
- Now, /plugins/my-foo/twentytwelve/single-foo.php is in the stack.
- locate_template() finds a match in the plugin directory.
- Profit.
comment:12 follow-up: ↓ 16 scribu — 16 months ago
And you could control the order (parent theme, child theme, plugin) via the priority arg. Got it.
Instead of:
register_template_stack( 'get_stylesheet_directory', 10 );
why couldn't you do:
register_template_stack( get_stylesheet_directory(), 10 );
since the callback just returns a path, which needs to be computed only once.
comment:13 wpmuguru — 16 months ago
+1 - I've used templates located im plugins several times for a variety of reasons.

Replying to scribu:

I went the callback route because it came with the filters API; either approach would work.

Is there really a need for the register_template_stack() wrapper function? I'd prefer to stick with add_filter(), which is self explanatory.

add_filter() alone would work. The reason to use a dedicated function is to make it API agnostic. Should we want to move it off of the filters API later, we can do so without changing the name of the function or it's parameters.

But it isn't a filter. The values of previous function aren't passed to the next function. If I understand correctly, I don't think anything is passed to the function at all.
Right now the filter API is simply a storage mechanism, which doesn't seem right.

comment:33 meloniq — 12 months ago
Above patch uses way of registering locations suggested by @scribu : add_template_stack( get_template_directory(), 12 ); , stop to use filters api as suggested @chacha102 - uses $wp_template_stack global, and adds functions to remove and check for existence of template location.

Added a simpler patch that handles this without adding a multitude of extra functions. It also adds a theme_url function as per #18302, since it makes a lot of sense to introduce that at the same time.
IMO, there no reason we should store this in a global. Doing it there creates a lot of extra code over the simplicity of just filtering an array.

+1 for the patch by rmccue looks like a very neat solution to this and #13239

Cloud storage providers bail out Xdrive users
With AOL-owned Xdrive on the auction block, competing cloud storage providers are scrapping together all sorts of plans to woo these potential paying customers to their services. Two in particular, Dropio and Box.net, have set up simple escape hatches wherein Xdrive users can simply plug in their account credentials and have their data piped over.
There's a catch, though: both services have free storage caps well beneath Xdrive's generous 5GB. In the case of Dropio, that cap is 100MB. To supplement this, the service is offering Xdrive users a special premium drop, which bumps up the cap … Read more

(HealthDay News) -- A proton pump inhibitor, a drug commonly taken for heartburn, may cause side effects.
The American Academy of Family Physicians lists these factors to consider before using a proton pump inhibitor (PPI):
If you're a postmenopausal woman, talk with your doctor because a PPI could increase your risk for bone fractures.
If you've been treated for a C. difficile infection, check with your doctor because PPIs may increase the risk of the infection returning.
If you have problems with your immune system or are elderly, check with your doctor because PPIs may increase the risk of pneumonia.

Often referred to as a Garden of Eden, our Seychelles journey—with a focus on the Aldabra Island Group, including Aldabra, one of the largest atolls in the world—offers an outstanding opportunity to witness a place where nature still reigns supreme. Whether you're a photographer, naturalist, birder, or snorkeler, you'll find yourself enraptured by the astonishing richness of the region's terrestrial and marine environments. Zodiacs bring us ashore for nature walks in search of numerous native and endemic species of flora and fauna, while the protected waters create a haven for coral reefs and fish that we discover on frequent snorkel excursions throughout our voyage.
Days 1-3
Victoria, Mahé Seychelles
Fly to Mahé, Seychelles. Upon arrival, transfer to our hotel for brunch, with the afternoon at leisure. In the evening we gather for a Welcome Dinner and trip briefing.
Day 4
Sainte Anne Marine Reserve / Embark Island Sky
This morning we enjoy the first of many snorkeling excursions with a visit to Sainte Anne Marine National Park—a wonderful introduction to the Seychelles. This group of six islands, off the coast of Mahé, was the first marine park to be founded in the Indian Ocean, more than 30 years ago. We enjoy a traditional Creole lunch in the park before returning to Victoria to embark on the Island Sky.
Day 5
Cousin / La Digue
Cousin is a small granitic island protected by Seychelles law as a nature reserve. It provides a safe haven for a number of endangered bird species, notably the Seychelles fody, Seychelles warbler, Seychelles magpie robin, and Seychelles blue-pigeon. A number of seabirds breed on Cousin's wild interior and rocky shores, and their dense concentrations show no fear, allowing for fabulous photo opportunities. We may also encounter the resident group of giant tortoises.
Famed biologist Sir Julian Huxley once described the Seychelles as akin to Hawaii and Tahiti in the 1700s, an untouched Garden of Eden, and no island could be more deserving of this description than La Digue, where giant granite boulders and swaying palms offset postcard-perfect white beaches. We explore this tranquil island like a local and bike or stroll along picturesque, sandy roads, passing quaint balconied houses and shops, a vanilla plantation, and a copra factory to reach the small Veuve Nature Reserve, where we may observe the endangered Seychelles paradise-flycatcher in its native habitat. Other common sights include the yellow bittern, Seychelles swiftlet, and common waxbill. We also spend time on one of the world's most breathtakingly beautiful beaches, Anse La Source d'Argent, to beachcomb, swim, or simply soak in our surroundings.
Day 6
Amirante Island Group
The Amirante Islands are named in honor of Portuguese admiral Vasco da Gama's 1501 visit. We take Zodiacs to Poivre Island for beachcombing, nature walks, birding, and a visit to the copra plantation. We also snorkel over coral gardens inhabited by brilliantly-hued tropical fish as manta rays glide through the waters below and black-naped terns soar in the skies above.
Day 7
At Sea
We enjoy a relaxing day at sea and attend lectures on the natural history of these fascinating islands.
Days 8-9
Assumption Island
Assumption Island is famous for its clear surrounding waters, populated by a profusion of marine life. These qualities led Jacques Cousteau to film much of his documentary The Silent World at Assumption here. We snorkel among corals that teem with more than a hundred species of fish, including black lionfish, blue-ribbon eels, black-streak surgeonfish, and Indian Ocean steephead parrotfish. Assumption is also home to about a hundred giant tortoises introduced to the island from Aldabra.
Day 10
Astove Atoll
Boarding Zodiacs, we land on this deserted island's sandy beach. Part of the Aldabra Group, Astove was formerly inhabited by African slaves who escaped a Portuguese ship in 1760. More recently, Astove was the site of a copra plantation—its houses, drying sheds, and other buildings are in various states of disrepair since being abandoned in the 1980s. Mature casuarina and Indian almond trees host the finely woven pendant nests of Abbott's sunbird, and snorkelers will delight in the crystal-clear waters of the large lagoon, frequented by turtles, groupers, and clouds of tropical fish.
Days 11-14
Aldabra Atoll
We have four full days at magnificent Aldabra, a World Heritage Site, and a highlight of our adventure. With a perimeter of 70 miles, Aldabra is one of the largest atolls in the world, comprising four major islands separated by channels. Because of the atoll's extreme isolation, many of Aldabra's species are endemics. Giant Aldabra tortoises—estimated to number over 100,000—roam wild over the islands. Tide permitting, we cruise by Zodiac through the narrow passes to drift through a landscape of fascinating eroded limestone topography. The tides have sculpted small islets into fantastical formations known as champignons, or "mushrooms." Hundreds of lesser and great frigatebirds soar overhead while on land, we search for the rare Aldabra white-throated rail, the only flightless bird found on any Indian Ocean island. Robber crabs, whose claws are strong enough to crack coconuts, scamper across the turf. We enjoy an exhilarating drift snorkel as the incoming tide whisks us through the pass and into a lagoon populated by turtles and eagle rays. We also visit the small scientific research station on Picard Island and photograph the mighty tortoises of this magical, isolated island that few travelers ever have the privilege to see.
Day 15
At Sea
As we sail to Zanzibar, we search for dolphins and other marine mammals and attend lectures recapping our experiences in the Seychelles.
Days 16-17
Zanzibar, Tanzania
Zanzibar lives up to its storied Arabian Nights reputation—a lush palm-fringed island, often referred to as the Bali of East Africa. Our choice of excursions includes a hike along the nature trails of Jozani Natural Forest Reserve to spot red colobus and Skye's monkeys, a tour of Stone Town, a UNESCO World Heritage Site with an architectural mélange reflecting a unique mix of Moorish, Arab, Persian, Indian, and European influences, or an excursion that brings us past the house of Dr. David Livingstone, visits the ruins of Maruhubi Palace, then proceeds to the countryside where we have the chance to observe the cultivation of fragrant spices and seasonal fruits, as well as plants used for medicinal purposes. In the afternoon, we transfer to the airport for departing flights, arriving home the next day.

Our Trips using this Lodging:
One of the finest small ships in the world, the Island Sky features 53 spacious, outside-facing suites with marble-appointed bathrooms. Each suite includes a flat-screen TV with DVD player, hairdryer, individually controlled air-conditioning, and mini-fridge. High quality service and attention to detail are the order of the day aboard the Island Sky, with an on-board atmosphere more similar to a yacht than a cruise ship. Having undergone significant refurbishment in 2010, she features a large lounge, a library and bar, and an elegant dining room as well as spacious outside decks. The ship's relatively small size lets her drop anchor in remote areas and in small ports where larger ships can't go, and the fleet of inflatable zodiacs offers access in wonderfully remote places. Island Sky has a staff and crew of 75.
