Fun facts and articles
Predatory birds like sparrowhawks often receive close attention
Image: Andy Bright
'Mobbing' is a noisy, obvious form of behaviour that birds engage in to defend themselves or their offspring from predators.
When a predator is discovered, the birds start to emit alarm calls and fly at the predator, diverting its attention and harassing it. Sometimes they make physical contact. Mobbing usually starts with just one or two birds, but may attract a large number of birds, often of many species. For example, a chorus of different alarm calls coming from the same tree is often a good sign of a roosting owl or a cat.
Mobbing behaviour has been recorded in a wide range of species, but it is particularly well developed in gulls and terns, while crows are amongst the most frequent mobbers.
In addition to flying at the predator and emitting alarm calls, some birds, such as fieldfares and gulls, add to the effectiveness by defaecating or even vomiting on the predator with amazing accuracy. There are reports of predators being grounded by the volume of droppings over their body after a concentrated mobbing attack by a colony of fieldfares.
Mobbing behaviour has many functions. Predators often rely on surprise to succeed. As a predator has been discovered, birds will blow its cover by the loud alarm calls. This will alert other birds to the presence of a predator, and reduce its chances of success.
This noisy mobbing will also serve to impress the appearance of the predator on inexperienced individuals. The constant harassment by the mobbing birds will also drive the predator to a safe distance. The mobbing birds are seldom at risk, provided they keep the predator in sight and do not take too many chances.
A predator may be mobbed regardless of whether it is in flight, on ground or in vegetation. Birds attacking a perched or ground predator always give loud alarm calls and may make physical contact. Flying birds of prey are attacked by swooping down at a steep angle from above and behind, and emitting alarm calls. Sometimes contact is made with bill or feet.
Such attacks are rarely pressed home against really dangerous species, such as goshawks for crows. Mobbing attacks are strongest when the birds have most at stake, such as during the breeding season when young birds are at risk from a wide range of predators.
Birds may mob anything that they consider to be a danger. The cuckoo, owls and day-flying raptors are the birds most commonly mobbed, but cats, foxes, snakes, even humans, are regularly on the receiving end. The cuckoo is of course a danger species in a different way from predators, though the resemblance to a bird of prey, especially when flying, is probably a coincidence.
Since there is a learnt component to the behaviour, birds can start to mob anything they see other birds mob. Therefore, theoretically even inanimate objects such as statues or paint cans may end up being mobbed.
Mobbing is not restricted to danger species or indeed to birds of prey or mammalian predators. In this country, adult crows are likely to be taken only by the rare goshawk, but they often mob buzzards and kestrels among others.
They also mob non-predators such as grey herons, whose large size and flight silhouette they mistake for a bird of prey. In some species like crows and gulls the harassing behaviour characteristic to mobbing is also seen in other behaviours including food robbing.

San Jose Taiko Drumming to Close Artists Series Season
(715) 836-4741
(715) 836-2900
MAILED: April 6, 1998
EAU CLAIRE -- The powerful and propulsive drumming of San Jose Taiko will close the University of Wisconsin-Eau Claire Artists Series season on Tuesday, April 28.
The performance will begin at 7:30 p.m. at The State: Regional Arts Center in downtown Eau Claire.
For 25 years, San Jose Taiko has performed a contemporary repertoire that is rooted in traditional Japanese monastic and military rituals of movement and sound. The company was founded in 1973 by artistic director Roy Hirabayashi and other young Asian Americans who sought an artistic and musical outlet to convey their unusual experiences as third-generation Japanese Americans (Sansei). Looking to Japan for inspiration, they selected the symbolic Japanese taiko/drum as their instrument of expression.
"San Jose Taiko calls on and reinterprets the sounds and symbolisms of a common ancestry with energy and flair," wrote The Los Angeles Times, praising the company's "varied, exuberant, soft-shell drumming, frenzied hip-hop choreography, and unabashed commitment to fun."
Taiko has its origins in the daily life of Japan's common people. Priests used taiko to dispel evil spirits and insects from the rice fields; samurai used taiko to instill fear in the enemy and courage in themselves; peasants used taiko in their prayers for rain, in festivals, and in thanksgiving for a bountiful harvest. In keeping with tradition, the practice and performance of taiko requires dedication, physical endurance and harmony. Taiko is so deeply a part of the traditions of the Shinto and Buddhist religions that it can be considered the heartbeat of the Japanese spirit.
The members of San Jose Taiko have taken the voice of the traditional taiko and infused it with the vitality of their American spirit to create a dynamic new Asian American art form. Their style joins the traditional rhythms of Japanese drumming with the beat of world rhythms, including African, Balinese, Brazilian, Latin and American jazz percussion. Company members study traditional and contemporary dance with leading choreographers, and present fully choreographed, theatrically lit extravaganzas of musical sound.
San Jose Taiko regularly performs in concert throughout North America and Japan.
Tickets are $15 for the general public; $13 for those age 62 and over, and UW-Eau Claire faculty/staff; or $5 for those age 17 and under, and UW-Eau Claire students. Tickets are available at the University Service Center, (715) 836-3727, and will be sold at the door.
The Artists Series is made possible by student funds allocated by the UW-Eau Claire Student Senate. The Artists Series is supported in part by a grant from the Wisconsin Arts Board with funds from the State of Wisconsin.

Will you be writing today?
After the gifts have been packed away and the dishes wiped. Once the kids are in bed and the floor mopped?
Will you pull out your notebook on the way to bed and record the wonder and mercy of Christmas?
And what will your pen linger over? Relationships, family, the sparkle in your grandson's eyes? Or the moment when you caught the still, private moment of sadness in a loved one's face before it was tucked behind another smile?
Will you record the sights? The smells of turkey, or pudding or (if you were at my place) a fresh fried hot breakfast? Or the laughter? The corny jokes found inside the crackers, the cornier ones quotes to out do the first?
Or will you be struck with wonder at the feature of the nativity? The one your niece bumped into on her way to another bowl of desert? The magnificence of the incarnation so inadequately represented by the ornaments and decorations? And will you allow your notebook to steal a moment of worship at the end of this busy but blessed day – to force you by very act of writing, to pause and remember the cost of this most precious gift?
From my desk to yours, I wish you a wonderful Christmas. And may you always have (whether it's today or at another time and place) just the right amount of blank paper to jot down whatever precious, Christmas wonderings that come your way.

Writing for Money is a Good Thing: The K. Bennett Interview
22 comments:
Thanks again, K, for dropping in to TKZ.ReplyDelete
My pleasure. Very hospitable of you.ReplyDelete
Since good writing gets paid, and this blog post is great writing, how do you two split the large sum of money you got for posting this?ReplyDelete
K, welcome to TKZ. Question: have you met any actual zombies while researching your books?ReplyDelete
Karl, each year we Zoners take our profits and rent a villa in Monte Carlo and blow our money in high stakes games at the casinos.ReplyDelete
Joe, yes. I killed two birds with one stone by attending a Los Angeles bar association meeting.ReplyDelete
Yay book three is out!ReplyDelete
This was an awesome interview! Thank you, K, for stopping by to let Jim interview you. I am only sorry this wasn't a video. ;)
I LOVE zombies, and I am currently writing a zombie apocalypse novel. But I seem to be getting a lot of people telling me that zombies are "overdone" (these people being other writers, not agents).
I'm ignoring them, because I love this book, but sometimes it's hard. Did you make a conscious decision to ignore the naysayers, or were you confident that the "lawyer" part of your premise would make it different enough?
Awesome blog post. That K. Bennett has an interesting imagination. Does Mallory Caine benefit from the use of Tums?ReplyDelete
What has been the pros and cons of of publishing as K. Bennett? I love the titles.
Elizabeth, zombie's were "hot" when I came up with the idea, which usually means one is too late IF one is writing "just another" of the same. So I tried to come up with something new, a fresh take. It was a) the zombie as hero; and b) doing cross-genre by combining zombie fiction with legal thriller.ReplyDelete
As for your other question, it's true there comes a point of market saturation, but if it's a story you love, you find a way to tell it with originality and passion. Dig deeper into character. Find your voice and let it flow. Then you have a shot at having your book stand out from the slush.
Jillian, Mallory does not use Tums, she uses accountant brains to settle her stomach.ReplyDelete
Writing with a pen name does present challenges. For one thing, you have to establish some social media presence, which is like taking on another marketing task. But I'm not overdoing it. Word of mouth is still the best marketing tool.
I did get to come up with a cool signature, though, which I use at the book signings. Also, when I do the occasional blog at kbennettbooks.tumblr.com I have a different voice to play with.
I'm not sure I want to know what that cool signature looks like - brain splat perhaps?! Sound advice, though...especially that there's nothing wrong with writing for the money:)ReplyDelete
Hm, you've given me an idea there, Clare....ReplyDelete
JSB you are very clever and I am a fan. I genuinely appreciate your sense of humour and skills. I am certain your stuff is the best zombie stuff written (and the most tongue-in-cheek).ReplyDelete
Speaking to the wind I want to say that I am beyond done with zombies, werewolves, vampires, etc.
I suspect that twenty years from now it will be as popular , at that time, as hard core rap.
Cash in now! There is nothing wrong with commercial success and entertaining tales.
LOL. Hilarious. Fish Taco's?! Jim, jim, jim... yuk, yuk, yuk!ReplyDelete
tjc, entertainment is the key, isn't it?ReplyDelete
And Darren, you haven't lived! The fish tacos at Duke's are superb!
- AnonymousAugust 5, 2012 at 11:00 PM
This was awesome. I needed a good laugh. :-)ReplyDelete
Jennette, happy to help. I trust the three books have some as well.ReplyDelete
Thanks for the wonderful advice K! I just wrote that paragraph on a sticky note and stuck it to my computer.ReplyDelete
I'm totally embarassed. I always thought K. was female. Sorry about that . . .ReplyDelete
How refreshing was THIS interview? Thank you. Let me know when I can sign up for a workshop with either one or both of you-- now that would be a treat.ReplyDelete
Thanks so much for putting a smile on my face, both with your story concept and your humor. Money? It couldn't hurt. Entertainment? It sounds like your books will entertain.ReplyDelete
I love fish tacos, which is why I write...to earn money to buy fish tacos.ReplyDelete

At issue is the Volcker Rule--one of the parts of the 2010 Dodd-Frank financial reform legislation most hated by U.S. banking giants Goldman Sachs (GS), Morgan Stanley (MS), JPMorgan Chase (JPM), Bank of America (BAC) and Citigroup (C). The rule, named after former Federal Reserve Chairman Paul Volcker (possibly President Obama's most hawkish financial markets policy adviser) intends to limit banks' ability to make directional market bets. Its goal is to reduce the risk that banks will require another government bailout.
However, Standard & Poor's warned that a more strict interpretation of the Volcker Rule might have the opposite of its intended effect. A strict rule "could significantly hurt some banks' revenues and profits because of a substantial reduction in trading," the credit ratings agency stated in a report published Monday.
Most vulnerable, according to the report, are Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley, "because they derive a larger percentage of their revenues from trading than the other banks."A stricter Volcker Rule wouldn't make banks riskier, three S&P analysts stressed during a phone interview with TheStreet. "We're trying to assess the impact on ratings, which depend on businesses' market positioning, their level of capital and earnings and a number of other factors. Risk is certainly a part of that," said Standard & Poor's analyst Matthew Albrecht. In other words, ratings don't just measure risk: they measure the ability of a company to pay its debts. You might be excused for wondering what the difference is. It seems that risk, as Albrecht is defining it in the above statement, means market risk--the risk of a sudden massive trading loss, like the $6 billion blow inflicted on JPMorgan by its own traders. Several such losses might begin to impact JPMorgan's ability to pay its debts. But if JPMorgan suddenly lost half its clients, that would also affect its ability to pay its debts. JPMorgan losing clients (and, consequently, profits) is certainly a risk bondholders need to think about, but it isn't what S&P analysts such as Albrecht mean by risk. They would put that in the category of "earnings" or "market positioning."

8 Former Republicans Who Ditched the Extremist GOP
Stay up to date with the latest headlines via email.
With the Republican Party at historically low approval ratings, seemingly unable to win major national elections, and suffering a continuing string of embarrassing statements on women, some GOP figures are deciding that the R after their names is more a hindrance than a help.
Here are eight politicians who have decided the GOP is too extreme, too intolerant, and too cringe-inducing to bother with anymore (three of them left just in the past couple of weeks).
1. Jimmy LaSalvia: "Today, I joined the ranks of unaffiliated voters," the founder of GOProud announced on his website two weeks ago. "I am every bit as conservative as I've always been, but I just can't bring myself to carry the Republican label any longer."
LaSalvia labored for years to preserve a space for LGBT conservatives within the GOP's shrinking tent. But watching the Romney campaign tack right in the primaries only to flail about during the general campaign was too much for the Republican to stand.
Lambasting the party for its "tolerance of bigotry," LaSalvia said he gave up hope that party leaders would ever be able to squash the intolerance in its ranks. Until it did, LaSalvia said, it stood no chance of winning elections.
"I am an independent conservative," LaSalvia wrote, adding: "That sounds much better than 'gay Republican.'"
2. Pablo Pantoja: LaSalvias not alone in objecting to the Republican Party's "culture of intolerance." That was exactly what convinced former Republican National Committee Florida Latino outreach director Pablo Pantoja to ditch the party only a year after attaining his position. Born in Puerto Rico and a veteran of the Iraq War, Pantoja rose quickly through the ranks of the Florida GOP before the immigration debate brought out a nasty streak in his compatriots.
"The discourse that moves the Republican Party is filled with this anti-immigrant movement and overall radicalization that is far removed from reality," he wrote in a letter to the Florida Nation, referring in all but name to Jason Richwine's Heritage Foundation study that connected conservative immigration policy to claims about Hispanics' lower IQ rates.
"Republican leaders have blandly (if at all) denied and distanced themselves from this but it doesn't take away from the culture within the ranks of intolerance. The pseudo-apologies appear to be a quick fix to deep-rooted issues in the Republican Party in hopes that it will soon pass and be forgotten…When the political discourse resorts to intolerance and hate, we all lose in what makes America great and the progress made in society."
It wasn't just party leaders, either. Pantoja said his average conversations as outreach director were turning ugly. "I did have conversations about immigration where increasingly I had to defend the fact that the people most affected were human beings," he said in an interview with Salon.
Pantoja joined the Democratic Party, and commemorated his departure from the GOP with a contribution to the ACLU.
3. Sue Wagner: Former Nevada state senator and gaming commissioner Sue Wagner was a Republican for 73 years before she decided last week she'd had enough. The first woman in Nevada ever elected to lieutenant governor changed her registration to "no party" after the GOP charged too far to the right.
"I did it as a symbol, I guess, that I do not like the Republican Party and what they stand for today," Wagner told the Reno Gazette-Journal. "I've been a Republican all my life. My dad was active [in the GOP] in the state of Maine where I was born. It was more of a moderate, liberal Republican Party."

Victorian Diamond Star Brooch
SOLDItem 12246
One of the more favored motifs from the Victorian era is that of the star. This was also one of the times when silver was preferred over yellow gold as the metal diamond jewelry highlighting the whiteness of the stone (white gold and platinum were not in use yet).
Beautifully designed in terms of both architecture and aesthetics, this late Victorian brooch shimmers with all the brightness a star can afford with eighty-five (85) old mine and rose cut diamonds densely sprinkled on every available surface of the silver-topped gold.
Radiating from the center .25 carat diamond, six diamond-encrusted points are superimposed atop an open work design substructure of diamond set scrolling motifs and marquise shaped points for a total estimated diamond weight greater than 3 carats of fiery luminescence.
The beloved two-for-one versatility in a piece of jewelry can be seen on the reverse which reveals a removable gold screw brooch fitting enabling the brooch to be worn as a pendant (with a simple addition of a bale if desired just contact us).
Measurements: 1-15/16 inches (4.9 cm) across at the widest by 1-1/2 inches (3.8 cm) from the short point to point. Weight of 10.6 grams (6.8 cm).
Condition: Excellent
Date & Origin: Circa 1880 and is most likely English in origin.
Overall Scale: Large
Note: All diamond weights are approximate as the stones have not been removed in order to preserve the integrity of the setting.

North American Star League Season 3
Week two of the NASL ended better than the first, with Zenio recovering with a strong performance against GoSuHwangSin, and Ret and HerO also chipping in their second victories of the season. But still, with 3-3 on the week, TLAF-Liquid can't rest easy with the team's results so far. There's more practicing to be done, and more room to improve. This is a delayed recap, thanks to the EG MC match from last night, and Zenio and HayprO have already strutted their stuff; playing each other in an entertaining series won 2-1 by the Korean. Tonight, Tyler is back in action alongside HerO, and the rest of the week will fill out nicely, with only Sheth on break.
NASL3 Week Two!
Saturday, Apr 26 1:00am UTC (GMT+00:00) to

EU Rebroadcasts at 17:00 UTC (+00:00)
Stream Link
This is how the week is looking:
Group A — Liquid`Zenio and Liquid`HayprO
As mentioned above, Zenio and HayprO met in their group teamkill last night, giving the fans a fun three game series that ended with Zenio coming out victorious. While that puts Zenio in a solid 2-1 position in his group, HayprO is now at 0-2 and has some catching up to do. Plenty of time to do it, however!
Group B — Liquid`HerO and Liquid`NonY
Group B has been the most enjoyable group in the first two weeks, with HerO looking sublime on two occasions and NonY looking great against aTn.DarKFoRcE, as well. This week, HerO meets up with his old Code A nemesis in iS.CrazymovING, while NonY gets a serious challenge in the form of SlayerS_Ryung. While HerO is definitely expected to win—having achieved Code S since they last met, while CrazymovING has sadly remained in Code B—NonY will have a much tougher time. In beating EG's DeMusliM 3-1 in IPL's Ye Old Map Tournament a few days ago, there's definitely a kernel of hope, and anyone who's paid attention knows how much stronger NonY is playing recently. But still, it'll be an uphill battle to keep the undefeated Liquid Group B streak alive in this third week.
Group C — Liquid`TLO
TLO's NASL didn't get any better last week, as he fell 1-2 to the extremely strong Gamania.Sen. This week presents a different opportunity; against mouz.MaNa, whom TLO 2-0'd at Dreamhack: Stockholm. But ZvP remains a sore spot for TLO, as for MaNa, and so this match might be a scrappy one. Perhaps the edge ought to go to TLO simply for the Dreamhack performance, but it will not be easy. It's surely a must-win for TLO, however, as taking three losses so early on would be digging a deep hole.
Group D — Liquid`Ret
After taking a W.O. in week one, Ret showed that he can win without any help just fine, defeating the dangerous (and DH: Stockholm winning) mouz.ThorZaIN by a 2-1 score. This week, the opponent is FXO.LoWeLy, who is certainly less famous, but a dangerous player nonetheless. ZvZ is tricky, even if Ret has been playing it well recently, and the droning dutchman cannot take this match-up too lightly. If he perseveres, however, at 3-0 he'll be in a brilliant position. With the toughest opponents on paper in the back of his schedule, it's essential that Ret cleans house early.
Group E— Liquid`Jinro and Liquid`Sheth
Sheth, who has been dominating in teamleagues for Liquid, has had a miserable start to his NASL campaign, losing to Tt.White-Ra and inFi.TargA by 1-2 scores. This week, he has a bye to collect his thoughts and prepare for SlayerS_Puzzle. Jinro has also had a tough start, but against two strong opponents in SK.MC and mouz.MorroW, falling to both also by 1-2 scores. This week, he has White-Ra, an opponent that he certainly can beat. After playing MC so closely, Jinro should be happy with his TvP. Hopefully he can get in the win column this week and take revenge for Sheth.
Liquid` Fighting!

Do you have to be great in math to be become a RN?!?
- 0Mar 4, '13 by Paris_milanHi guys I'm looking forward to applying to some CUNY schools that have nursing programs I'm 23 and have a 4 month son I haven't been in school since 2008 I'm not good in math at all but science I was always good in I've heard that nursing school is very difficult and time consuming, competitive and you have to be good in math in order to become a nurse. I know that if I pay attention & stay focus and get a touter to help me with my math I would do okay. This is something I really want to do and I won't give up on my dreams of becoming a nurse because of math lol. I also want to know what are some requirements to get into a nursing program and what are the best schools in NYC with nursing programs.
- 0Mar 4, '13 by hodgieRNYou have to have a good grasp of math. You will use it everyday. Everything will be calculated out on the computer, but you still have to be able to work out basic equations.
Now, you aren't going to be doing calc, geometry, or statistics during work. You will have do be able to find out drip rates and drug calculations in school. There will be times at work when you have to figure out how many milligrams per kilogram to give someone, and then calculate how many milliliters to pull out of a standard bottle. When you give a bolus of medication, you have to know how many mg per kilo to order (pharmacy will do most of it, but you still need to know it). Sometimes, pharmacy will just enter the bottle in the pyxis and you have to mix it (which is why you have to know it).
There are other areas besides meds that you have to use math. You have to be able to calculate blood pressure changes, intracranial ranges, pulse rates, IV fluid rate, etc. If you move on to a BSN, you have to calculate monetary equations, process improvements, and incorporate statistical information for managerial positions.
The good thing is you will learn all of this in school. But, make sure you do what you need to improve your math skills. They won't let you through if you can't pass your drug calculation test.
The requirements for school are mainly pre-regs (which vary). A&P I and/or II, english comp, math, psychology, maybe sociology, maybe micro, an essay, maybe some volunteer work. Check with the school you pick and see what the requirements are.
- 0Mar 4, '13 by AccelCNL2b16To answer you question is yes and no. You do need to be able to do mathematical calculations because it will be necessary to do medical calculations The response above is really on the point. You will not be doing geometry or any of the higher maths however you need to know math skills in order to be competent.
I am a graduate from Lehman but I am planning on doing an accelerated BSN program. For the CUNY programs GPA is key and often the only thing admissions looks at. I do not know which school you are attending but use the tutoring services. I am not a strong math student either however doing the homework ( sometimes even extra problems). studying and practicing might not get me an A but I usually have a very strong B+.
Good luck on your journey. I hope you achieve the results you want.
- 0Mar 4, '13 by SopranoKrisYou'll need to know enough math to do dimensional analysis and conversions for pharmacology. If you're planning on a BSN, many programs also require Statistics. Plus, many pre-reqs (e.g. Chem) require Algebra or Intermediate Algebra as a math pre-req before attempting the course.
So, yeah...you'll need to be decent at math.
- 0Mar 4, '13 by SummitRNTo get into school, you probably needed to be functional with algebra and pass a basic statistics class.
To be a RN on a day-to-day basis, you need to be able to do middle school math.
To do your job well (and excel in school), it is good to have an understanding of statistics to evaluate evidence related to practice and think critically.
- 0Mar 6, '13 by irisheyesRsmilinI am the WORST at math, makes me cringe thinking of it....yikes!I do not think nursing math in my program is all that bad. I just know I need to make sure I study for it and I am good to go.
Of all the tests I took this semester, I scored the highest, yes, a 96% on one....yes, it was the MATH test....holy crow! ( happy dance here)
You can do it....dont get freaked out over it!
- 0Mar 6, '13 by AlisonisayoshiI had to work my butt off in math last semester and study like a mofo in chem this semester. I'm horrid at math but I'm getting there... It just takes study. I am starting to believe nobody is "bad" at math, they just never learned to approach and study it correctly. Math is practice and not giving in to frustration when you aren't "getting" it. You can do it, I can do it, and it should never stand in your way of a goal. It's just numbers after all!
- 0Mar 21, '13 by ProfRN4Quote from AccelBSN12Not true of all CUNY schools. Many of them have their own entrance exams, like NLN, HESI or ATI, which all have math sections. It's amazing how someone can get an A in a college math class and do awful on an entrance exam.
I am a graduate from Lehman but I am planning on doing an accelerated BSN program. For the CUNY programs GPA is key and often the only thing admissions looks at. I do not know which school you are attending but use the tutoring services. I am not a strong math student either however doing the homework ( sometimes even extra problems). studying and practicing might not get me an A but I usually have a very strong B+.
Also some are actually requiring math as a pre-requisite now. And there are a lot of changes in the works for CUNY-wide standards for pre-requisites.
No one wants to hear this, but a strong math background is very helpful in nursing. It shows your ability to think analytically and critically. Not to mention, many nursing programs require a med math competency every semester.Last edit by ProfRN4 on Mar 21, '13

- In a large pan, melt the tbsp of butter. Add the onions and cook for 5 mins until softened, but not coloured. Add the potato, celeriac, the litre of stock, 4 sage leaves and 2 strips of lemon peel. Bring to the boil and simmer gently for about 30 mins, until the celeriac is tender and the potato is collapsing. Remove and discard the lemon zest and sage leaves. Stir so the potato thickens the soup a little. (At this point you can cool and keep covered in the fridge for up to two days or freeze for up to 3 months.)
- When you're ready to eat, reheat the soup to just simmering. Stir in the 200g of cheese. Serve with crisp sage leaves for a special touch.

Comments, questions and tips
Was looking for a recipe for celeriac soup, and this was a lovely aromatic one. I also left the lemon peel and the sage (used dried) in, and replaced half the potatoes with a small squash diced up. Was good with or without the cheese.
Just the thing to help ease those cold and flu symptoms. Will definitely be doing this one again.
Made with half celeriac and half cauliflower - didn't have enough celeriac. Everybody loved it very much, though we all thought lemon rind shouldn't be taken out - it is soft and melts in the mouth (I missed some in and that's how we discovered) - not bitter or acidic at all. Perhaps even some more rind would do, as suggested by BB.

From Bill Murray to Jennifer Lawrence, Here Are 5 Great Movies To Watch When It's Freezing Outside [VIDEO]
Mother Nature loves to give us the one-two punch of snow, followed by wind chills hitting 25 below zero. It's like she's saying "Here, look at all this lovely snow. Too bad you can't go outside to enjoy it, sucker!" Well, who needs Mother Nature? Stay warm inside enjoy these 5 movies.
These are great movies any time of year, but why not get totally into the spirit of them and enjoy on an ice cold night with some popcorn, hot chocolate, hot Brandy, or whatever tickles your fanny. Maybe crack a window open for full effect.
In the mood for a laugh? Make sure to watch Bill Murray freeze while reliving the same day over and over in 'Groundhog Day'.
Feeling a bit twisted and want to solve a murder mystery? Enjoy the Coen Brother's 'Fargo'. We don't really talk this way, do we?
Want to visit a galaxy far, far away? Watch the 'Star Wars' gang start out in a deep freeze in 'The Empire Strikes Back', which is still my favorite of all the Star Wars films. **Click here to read about my Star Wars related favorite Christmas present.
Want a great scare? You must watch my favorite horror movie, John Carpenter's 'The Thing', which was released in 1982 and starred Kurt Russell (avoid the 2011 remake at all costs). This movie is about an American research team stationed in Antarctica that discovers something…..
Want to watch Jennifer Lawrence? Check out the role that launched her career and earned her an Oscar nomination. The movie 'Winter's Bone' finds Jennifer hunting down her drug-dealing father for a court appearance. There are a lot of subplots in this excellent film, so enjoy!

2014 NHL Winter Classic ties TV ratings record, sets other records
On Thursday, we guessed that the 2014 NHL Winter Classic would be the highest rated, most social (and snowiest) regular season game in NHL History. For anyone who watched the game, the "snowiest" prediction quickly became apparent. On Friday, NBC announced the ratings and we certainly were close: The 2.5 rating ties the 2008 NHL Winter Classic, which was played at Wrigley Field, for the most-watched regular season game title.

Brad says: "It's very scary to take a musical chance, and there's things you can get away with later that you cannot get away with in the beginning. I couldn't have made this album in the beginning. If you would actually have gone back in time and played this album for the kid that made Who Needs Pictures in 1999, I don't think I would've believed that you actually had a copy of my future album. I think I would say that you were crazy, that there's no way that's what I'm up to. And it takes going through a lot of things in your life to get to a point where you're ready to sing a certain song. It's only because I made albums like Who Needs Pictures and Mud on the Tires and Part II and stuff like that that I get to a point where I'm ready to take a chance on somethin' that's way less predictable."

Ogeechee Tech names employee standouts
Monday, 28 January 2013 09:45
Ogeechee Technical College recognized three employees on January 23 with Support Staff of the Year, Leadership, and Rick Perkins—Instructor of the Year awards. The awards were presented at the College's Spring semester faculty/staff meeting.
Melba Williams (pictured far right) received the Support Staff of the Year award. Williams is a Student Affairs Assistant, working in the Financial Aid office at the College.
John Groover, Dean for Academic Affairs, was named the recipient of the College's Leadership award. The Leadership award is given to employees who are not instructors, who are not classified as support staff, and who are in a leadership position at the College.
The Rick Perkins award is the Technical College System of Georgia's (TCSG) instructor of the year award. Loretta Jane Stanley, an Echocardiography instructor at the College, was named as the winner. As Rick Perkins winner for Ogeechee Tech, Stanley will go on to compete at the regional level, and will travel to Atlanta to participate in the competition at the state level.
Following the presentation of awards, a reception was held to allow co-workers to congratulate the three winners. "We have a great group of faculty and staff members, and these award winners represent the best of the best. I congratulate Jane, John, and Melba for their work ethic and their commitment to help Ogeechee Tech better serve students," said Dr Dawn Cartee, President of the Ogeechee Technical College.

Baton Rouge- Polk Elementary students learned important safety cross walk guidelines during the observance of International Walk to School Day on Wednesday, October 3. Volunteers from Louisiana State Police, the Safety Council, ICARE, the Office of Public Health, the Department of Transportation and Federal Express helped to celebrate this "safety holiday" which calls attention to pedestrian safety issues.
More than 250 students attended an assembly where Louisiana State Trooper Johnnie Brown demonstrated the correct way to walk in a cross walk and provided important tips on which direction to walk when there is no sidewalk. "The things I am telling you today can help save your life," Brown explained.
Each year in the United States more than 630 children are killed and thousands are treated in emergency rooms as a result of pedestrian injuries. Statistics also show that children living in highly populated areas are most at-risk for these types of injuries. "Parents, caregivers and teachers need to be aware of influencing factors for children when they are walking and address those when teaching them about pedestrian safety," says Crystal Pichon of Safe Kids Baton Rouge and the Safety Council.
Through the year-round Safe Kids Walk This Way Program, safe walking behaviors are reinforced to students. "We hope that kids will tell their parents the correct way to approach a cross walk when driving," says Susan Thornton of ICARE.
Safe Kids Walk This Way is a grassroots pedestrian safety initiative in more than 500 schools nationwide.

CARDINALS-SYNOD Oct-24-2012 (560 words) With photos. xxxi
Four new cardinals had to keep news secret from synod
Maronite Patriarch Bechara Rai looks on during the arrival ceremony for Pope Benedict XVI at Rafiq Hariri International Airport in Beirut Sept. 14. He was one of six new cardinals named by the pope Oct. 24. (CNS/Paul Haring)
By Cindy Wooden
Catholic News Service
VATICAN CITY (CNS) -- Four of the six new cardinals announced by Pope Benedict XVI Oct. 24 were participating in the world Synod of Bishops at the Vatican and had to keep their impending appointments secret as they participated in the synod's small-group work that morning.
The appointment of new cardinals was not announced to synod members, so those who did not have smartphones or tablets or a friend with one found out only during the synod's lunch break.
When they returned to the synod hall in the afternoon -- four hours after the announcement -- the synod hall's foyer turned into a receiving line and photo studio. Synod members congratulated the cardinals-designate, and the cardinals-designate congratulated one another.
The four synod members named cardinals are: Lebanon's Maronite Patriarch Bechara Rai, 72; Indian Archbishop Baselios Cleemis Thottunkal, 53, head of the Syro-Malankara Catholic Church; Nigerian Archbishop John Olorunfemi Onaiyekan of Abuja, 68; and Philippine Archbishop Luis Tagle of Manila, 55.
Between slaps on the back and warm handshakes in the synod hall, Cardinal-designate Rai told
Catholic News Service
he was told at 5 p.m. Oct. 23 of the pope's intention to make him a cardinal, and he was sworn to secrecy until noon the next day.
Cardinal-designate Thottunkal started to tell CNS the reasons why his nomination was such an honor, but he was interrupted by Patriarch Rai grabbing both his hands and saying, "Dear, dear brother."
When others began congratulating the patriarch, Archbishop Thottunkal continued his brief interview, saying, "For our church, it's a great honor from the Holy See, recognizing our apostolates as well as our missions in India and all over."
The cardinal-designate said the appointment also is an honor for India: "It's great culture and people," and the Vatican recognizes "the great unity in diversity of our country."
Cardinal-designate Tagle said a bishop's job often involves keeping secrets, so spending the morning with other synod members and not breathing a word about the news was not a huge challenge.
He told CNS that Cardinal Tarcisio Bertone, Vatican secretary of state, informed him of the pope's decision just before 5 p.m. the previous evening.
"Listening to the text of the pope's letter being read out to me, I also felt like -- here it comes," he said, fighting back tears, -- "it felt like someone far greater than I am is here. Very near."
He told Vatican Radio the announcement was "a spiritual experience for me," and that his initial reaction was "to respond with the words of the prayer before Communion: 'I am not worthy that you should enter under my roof,' but I felt that someone greater than me has come to call me."
The month of October, which is the month of the rosary, "is big for me," he told CNS. He was informed in October 2001 that he would become a bishop and was told he'd be transferred to Manila in October 2011. "And now it's October again," he said, and began laughing.
When the bell rang for the synod's work to begin again at 4:30 p.m., Vatican security escorted reporters out. CNS did not have a chance to speak to Cardinal-designate Onaiyekan.
U.S. Archbishop James M. Harvey, the 63-year-old prefect of the Papal Household, and Colombian Archbishop Ruben Salazar Gomez of Bogota, 70, were the two new cardinals who were not participating in the synod.

For more than 100 years, The College of Idaho has combined its outstanding academic rigor with a proud tradition of athletic success. From late, great heroes such as supermarket magnate Joe Albertson and National Football League innovator R.C. Owens to current stars like 2012 Major League Baseball draftee Izaac Garsez and two-time national champion distance runner Hillary Holt, the C of I has been home to countless student-athletes who have excelled both in the classroom and in sport.
The College of Idaho has named Mike Moroski, a former NFL quarterback and longtime coach at the University of California-Davis, as the 17th head football coach in its program history.
The Purple and Gold has come to life for College of Idaho sports fans with the Aug. 8 unveiling of www.yoteathletics.com, the new online home of Coyote Athletics.
Created with the help of SIDEARM Sports – one of the nation's premier college athletic website developers – YoteAthletics.com will give Coyote fans unprecedented access to the College's 19 intercollegiate teams.
Three long-time supporters of The College of Idaho have made gifts totaling $250,000 to support the reinstatement of the College's football program.
John and Linda Bequette, co-chairs of the steering committee that is raising funds for football, have contributed $150,000 toward the effort, while Bernie McCain, who with her late husband Warren McCain provided many generous gifts including the College's McCain Scholarships, has made a $100,000 gift.
Former College of Idaho baseball player Izaac Garsez has been called up to play for the Boise Hawks. The Hawks, in conjunction with their parent club, the Chicago Cubs, announced the move prior to their July 17 home game versus the Yakima Bears. Garsez, an outfielder, was promoted to replace Bijan Rademacher, who was promoted to the Peoria Chiefs. Garsez is expected to be in the starting lineup on Tuesday night.
The College of Idaho will join the Frontier Conference as a football only member in fall 2014 following a vote of the conference's Council of Presidents, conference commissioner Kent Paulson announced today, June 27.
The College of Idaho will welcome football back to its campus, a move that also establishes the only small college football program in the state of Idaho.
The College of Idaho will consider the reinstatement of a football team to its athletics program this spring, with the College's Board of Trustees anticipated to make a decision at its May 2012 meeting.
A series of meetings for members of the College community will be held in the coming weeks by President Marv Henberg and Athletics Director Marty Holly. Information about the contemplated reinstatement of football will be shared at the meetings and input will be collected.
College of Idaho sophomore Matt Fultz is a rock climbing star. Fultz has been competing across the country since his early teens, and he became the first person from Idaho to win the USA Climbing Junior Nationals in 2004. Fultz put climbing on the back burner for a couple of years while he starred in football and track at Columbia High School (Nampa), but his dedication to the sport has reached new heights at C of I. He remains undefeated in Idaho competition and qualified for his first World Cup event last year.
Days after leading The College of Idaho volleyball team to the best finish in program history at the NAIA National Championships (fifth place), senior libero Whitney Brigham capped an amazing career by becoming the Coyotes' first-ever NAIA First-Team All-American, announced Dec. 5 by the NAIA national office in Kansas City, Mo.

A letter to the murderers G W Bush and Dick Cheney
An Iraq War veteran who joined the U.S. Army two days after 9/11 has written a powerful open letter to former President George W. Bush and ex-Vice President Dick Cheney accusing them of war crimes, "plunder" and "the murder of thousands of young Americansmy fellow veteranswhose future you stole."
Tomas Young, who was shot and paralyzed during an insurgent attack in Sadr City in 2004, five days into his first deployment, penned the letter from his Kansas City, Mo., home, where he's under hospice care.
I joined the Army two days after the 9/11 attacks. I joined the Army because our country had been attacked. I wanted to strike back at those who had killed some 3,000 of my fellow citizens. I did not join the Army to go to Iraq, a country that had no part in the September 2001 attacks and did not pose a threat to its neighbors, much less to the United States. I did not join the Army to liberate Iraqis or to shut down mythical weapons-of-mass-destruction facilities or to implant what you cynically called democracy in Baghdad and the Middle East. I did not join the Army to rebuild Iraq, which at the time you told us could be paid for by Iraqs oil revenues.
I would not be writing this letter if I had been wounded fighting in Afghanistan against those forces that carried out the attacks of 9/11. Had I been wounded there I would still be miserable because of my physical deterioration and imminent death, but I would at least have the comfort of knowing that my injuries were a consequence of my own decision to defend the country I love. I would not have to lie in my bed, my body filled with painkillers, my life ebbing away, and deal with the fact that hundreds of thousands of human beings, including children, including myself, were sacrificed by you for little more than the greed of oil companies, for your alliance with the oil sheiks in Saudi Arabia, and your insane visions of empire.

The Belt Republic Series by Ted Butler
Review of Menace Beyond the Moon
Book Two in the Belt Republic Series
Review by - Gerald Cline author of "Soldier in a Shallow Grave" Coming 2005 from Windstorm Creative.
Menace Beyond the Moon is Ted Butler's second novel. It is a sequel to his first novel, 2176: Birth of the Belt Republic. While it is the second book in a projected series, it is a stand alone novel, which can be read and enjoyed on its own.
This story follows the main character from Ted's first novel, Gil Klanz, two years after the end of the Belt War of Independence. Menace Beyond the Moon starts out with Gil as a cadet at the Federation Naval Academy on the moon. A Federation senator, friendly to the Belt Republic, appointed Gil to the academy. However, because of his participation in the Revolution, Gil is attending the academy under the pseudonym Gil Rockaway from North America in the Federation.
During a cruise on the school's training ship a fleet is encountered being assembled beyond the far side of the moon. The cadets are informed that the purpose of the fleet is to build a new trading hub in the belt, to replace the hub lost during the Belt War of Independence. However, the makeup of the fleet, heavy in warships and troop transports, suggests this is actually an invasion assembled with the purpose of retaking territories lost by the Belt Corporation during the revolution.
After some difficulty Gil succeeds in warning the Belt Republic's embassy on Luna. However, due to "sunspot activity" the embassy is unable to communicate with their government in the asteroid belt. Gil, a reserve officer in the militia, is activated and sent with several other reservists from the embassy to the belt to warn them of the threat.
Gil and his companions end up on Devonsport, an asteroid colony that did not participate in the revolution and is still under Belt Corporation authority. However, they discover that the citizens of Devonsport have secretly overthrown the Belt Corporation government, and are frantically building a defense before word gets out that they have revolted.
Gil's mission is able to get word through to the Belt Republic government, which determines that the "sunspot activity" is actually being artificially generated by the Belt Corporation to cover their impending invasion. It is also discovered that a traitor on Devonsport has informed the Belt Corporation of the rebellion, and the first place the Belt Corporation intends to reconquer is Devonsport.
Gil's party is assigned to Devonsport as advisors, to help them to prepare and fight off the Belt Corporation when it arrives. Gil and the BR reservists help Devonsport defend their home from the Belt Corporation attack. Like his first novel this book is set against a military background and war. There is much derring-do, and Gil is in the thick of battle for most of the last half of the book.
This book is being marketed as a young-adult novel. However, as with his first work, Menace Beyond the Moon is an old-fashioned space opera – very much in the Heinlein tradition – which can be read and enjoyed by readers of any age.

Sponsored Deals
They're like ads, but good.
OK, yes, companies pay a little something to be Sponsored Deals. But we don't allow just any old crap in this section. Sponsored Deals are proposed to us by other retailers, manufacturers, and even other daily deal sites. If we find the deal compelling enough that our members will appreciate us bringing it to their attention, we'll feature it here. Believe it or not, we have a reputation to uphold. If your store would like to be considered for this space, please contact us for details. But if your deal is lame, or sketchy, no amount of money will let you buy your way in.
Community Deals
It's whatever you want it to be.
Pretty much, anyway. This is where you find the deals that wooters like you have ferreted out and brought to light. We're thinking it'll turn into a massive database of discounted products from around the Web, constantly expanding to absorb the newest deals from the very moment their prices are slashed, with each deal immediately rated by hordes of savvy voters to spotlight the very greatest deals in the world today. Hey, we can dream, right?
We use a fancy algorithm to determine which deals are catching the most buzz – they're under the Popular tab, which is the default view of this section. You can look for the most popular deals today, this week, or this month. The Fresh tab features the most recently submitted deals, so that's where to look for deals that everybody else doesn't know about yet. And the Search bar does what a Search bar does, only, uh, much wootier! Yeah! Right on!
Ask The Community
They probably won't bite.
Organic bullets? Vegetarian haggis? Cheap tickets to Antarctica? The best high-performance sweatsocks for under $100? If you're looking for a deal that doesn't appear to show up in our Community Deals section, throw the question to your fellow cheapskates. Or answer a question for one of your fellow cheapskates. Or vote for your favorite questions, or your favorite answers, or… maybe we should call this section "Ask, Answer, Comment On, And Vote In The Community", but that won't fit on the page.

SALAMANCA, N.Y. - Snowmobile racing enthusiasts have finally got what they've been waiting for as the AMSOIL Snocross Championship got underway Friday in Salamanca.
Thousands of spectators have filled the grandstands at the Seneca Allegany Casino to watch the world's best snowmobile racers compete.
Although this is the first time this event has come to Western New York, coordinators say they are confident that the economic impact will be huge.
"We think it's going to be a very busy weekend. People are very excited about coming out. And again I think this will help everything from Salamanca to Ellicottville from Jamestown to Olean. This is a real positive to bring in a big event for the region," said Jim Wise, Seneca Casinos Senior VP of Marketing.
Racing continues through Sunday and tickets can be purchased at the door.
