Good Monday morning to all.
Had a nice Fathers day. Heard from all three of my children. Of course two of them are Fathers also so I had to wish them right back. We had our usual Sunday Champagne brunch with a carnation presented to all the Fathers and later had our Church Service. I was asked yesterday to take part in two services next week. One here where we live and one at a neighboring Independent/Assisted Living facility.
Saturday we had a very good show in the afternoon. The fellow who performed is an excellent impressionist and a good singer. At night we had a movie. "Saving Mr. Banks". It was pretty good. I thought the acting was superb and NO CUSS WORDS.
Tomorrow (Tuesday) night I am going to see the Rays play the Orioles in Tropicana field. It is a bus trip so I do not have to worry about driving or parking. To those who think older people just sit around in an Independent Living Facility, you are very wrong!

Here I am Patsy, It's a beautiful sunny warm day here in Sun City Center Florida. Played Bunco last night after dinner. Carol managed to win a few "Bunco Bucks". They can be used at the bar or hairdressers. Think we will skip tonight's movie. Does not look all that interesting. Called "Bernie". Tomorrow I will be taking part in two Church Services. Here and at a neighboring Independent Living place.
Talked to my Cardiologists yesterday. They answered some of my questions about the drug they want me to try. I will have to go into the Hospital for three days while they check the good and bad effects of the drug. It is called Tikosyn. It would replace the Sotolal I am on now. I would be on continuous EKG tests as well as Kidney function tests. Evidently a very strong drug. I need it to stop the A-Flutter I am in almost all the time. Not looking forward to being Hospitalized but it is the only way you can be put on Tikosyn. Not sure when I will do this but it would be shortly. Being in A-Flutter 99.7& of the time is not too good!

June 24
Good Morning All,
You would not believe how busy a retired person can get. Unfortunately most of the time it is for Medical reasons. Waiting for a call back from one Doctors Office to confirm me going into the Hospital for tests on a different heart medication. I have to squeeze it in between the regular appointments Carol and I have with Doctors and Labs. Meanwhile, I got an e-mail from the fellow who runs the Church services I am involved with. He wants me to write and present the Sermon on a Sunday in August when he will be away. All I will get is a Bible reference and I will have to write the sermon based on that reference. Quite a challenge but I think I can handle it.
One grandson graduated from College a few weeks ago and one graduates from H.S. this week. Guess they are not in diapers anymore!!!! Time sure flies.
Weather here has been pretty pleasant. Sunny in the high 80's every day. Some thunderstorms in the evening. So long.

Unless one of my Grandchildren gets married, we are out of the baby business. A great Grandchild would be a novelty!!!!
My Hospital arrangements are just about finalized. It will be a 3-3&1/2 day stay.
The main purpose is to see if my system will accept the new heart pill the Doctors are proposing I take to clear up my hearts A-Flutter. It will be in a couple of weeks.
Been quite warm here. Temps in the 90's every day. Patsy, You would not find it hard to pick a day to swim here. Either in the Ocean (Gulf) or in a pool. Anna, pack your bathing suit at the top of the suitcase. You will need it right away when you get down here.

Howdy everyone!
Glad to see everyone is OK.
It was so depressing to see the USA lose in World Cup soccer. But luckily for me, I went to a neighborhood youth baseball game and our team won - that sure made me feel good. Just to show you my old age, years ago I coached the team's coaches when they were kids! Funny thing is, it was so cold last night - everybody was wrapped in blankets because of the very chilly & humid air and gusty winds. Thankfully, I had on a long sleeve shirt & thick hoody - but was still cold!
Brrrrrrr !
Hope everyone continues to have a wonderful Summer.

Sorry that I can not sympathize with the few Soccer fans in the U.S. It is to me the most boring PROFESSIONAL sport there is. School Soccer at any level okay. But to pay and watch nothing happen for a couple of hours is not for me. The NFL and MLB are what I enjoy. That does not mean I find anything wrong with someone else enjoying it.

Hello All,
1st of all I want to thank all of you for the well wishes. I will be entering the Hospital shortly for the minimum 3 day evaluation with the heart drug called Tikosyn. I would rather not put on line the exact dates since I have become very security conscious. Saw my Cardiologist for a fleeting moment today and he assured me that I will come through this what ever you want to call it, just fine. He thinks this drug is just what I need to correct some of my remaining heart problems. There was a character on either Jack Benny or Fred Allen's radio program who's last name was Pierce. He used to say to everything "I hope, I hope
I hope I hope it all works out okay". Without repeating all those hopes I feel the same way.
The only things I remember at Bartel-Pritchard Square (really a circle) were The Sanders Movie theater, Lewnies Ice Cream Parlor and attached, Lewnies Bar & Grill. Across the street (PPW) was an entrance to Prospect Park. ( there was another Lewnies Ice Cream Parlor on 9th St and PPW. They had a big fresh roasted peanut stand in the store. My Father on occasion would walk me up 9th St and stop at Lewnies. buy a bag of Peanuts and we would sit on a park bench inside the 9th St entrance and feed the Squirrels!) In the middle of BP Square was the big Trolley stop for the McDonald Ave. (Coney Island Trolley) Smith Street Trolley and there was another but I am not sure if it was the 7th Ave Trolley or the Ft Hamilton Pkwy Trolley. The other two corners I am drawing a blank for. There very well could have been a Socony-Mobile gas station with the Pegasus sign. They were all over the place. Remember, Socony stood for Standard Oil Co of NY. I believe they had to spin off Mobil during the Monopoly hearings. How many of you remember "Dino" the Dinosaur on the Sinclair Stations.

Streaking Nuggets blow out Bulls
Kenneth Faried didn't wait for the All-Star dunk contest to put on a big show.
THE RIGHT MOVESSee how NBA dance teams get crowds all fired up.
The Denver Nuggets' second-year star celebrated his invitation to the league's annual slam dunk contest with a series of rim-rattling, crowd-pleasing jams that set the tone for the Nuggets' eighth straight win, a 128-96 rout of the Chicago Bulls on Thursday night.
Faried finished with 21 points and 12 rebounds in 26 minutes as the Nuggets won for the 15th time in 18 games since Jan. 1, playing from the opening tip with an intensity that seemed to take the Bulls by surprise.
He had 17 points and eight boards on the break and was on the bench by the fourth quarter along with the rest of Denver's starters as they relished what had become a laugher.
Wilson Chandler added a season-high 24 points, sinking all five of his 3-pointers, as the Nuggets made quick work of a stingy Bulls team that came in yielding just 91 points a game but watched Denver pour in 100 by the time the third quarter was over.
''Wilson and Kenneth, what an incredible performance,'' Denver coach George Karl said. ''That's 45 points on 19 shots. I'll take that every night.''
Faried said he was more inspired by the television cameras at the Pepsi Center on this night than the chance to be in the spotlight during the All-Star weekend. He said he feels nobody's noticing the Nuggets as they round into shape following a tough start to the season in which they played 17 of their first 23 on the road, something no NBA team had endured in more than a quarter century.
''I came out with a mindset tonight just to dominate,'' Faried said. ''I just wanted to come out and make a statement and Wilson came out and did the same thing. Our team did the same thing, wanted to come out and make a statement in a nationally televised game. We did what we had to do tonight.
JaVale McGee put on his own slam-and-jam show, adding 10 points for the Nuggets, who haven't lost since Jan. 18 and led this one by as many as 35 points.
The Nuggets' 128 points was their highest output of the season and also the most points allowed by the Bulls this season, surpassing the 120 that Houston had on Dec. 25 - it also marks the most an opponent scored during Tom Thibodeau's three years as the Bulls' coach.
''I think today we made a statement on TNT,'' Faried said, ''and showed everybody hey, notice us, pay attention. We're out here trying to do our best and we're out here trying to set records.''
Carlos Boozer led Chicago's starters with 18 points. The Bulls again were without starting guards Derrick Rose (left knee) and Kirk Hinrich (right elbow). Center Joakim Noah (right foot) returned to the lineup, but was held to just one bucket and five rebounds. Reserve Daequan Cook led the Bulls with 19 points.
''Yeah, they're short-handed, they're down a couple of guys,'' Karl said, unable to avoid a smile as he perused the Nuggets' best stat sheet of the season. ''You know, we did what we had to do and it was fun watching the dunks and the 3-ball going in and the defensive energy and Kenneth bouncing around.''
MOST VALUABLEWill LeBron win another one of these? Here's our top 10 MVP candidates.
Faried learned before the game he had been selected to take part in the slam dunk competition during All-Star festivities in Houston on Feb. 16.
''I mean, I'm ecstatic about it, happy to go out there and showcase what I can do and excite the fans,'' Faried said before going out and nearly hitting a double-double by the time the Nuggets went to the locker room with a 63-58 halftime lead.
His biggest dunk in the first half came on the break when Ty Lawson's layup rimmed out and he timed it perfectly to throw down the follow-up. But his best one came in the third quarter when Lawson stripped Noah and flipped the ball to Faried for the fast-break bucket that gave Denver an 80-64 cushion.
Moments later, Faried tied up Noah on his way to the basket, part of a stellar defensive effort during a 28-6 spurt that allowed the Nuggets to coast to their seventh straight win at the Pepsi Center.
''It was an offensive game in the first half. They came out the third quarter and just smoked us,'' Thibodeau said. ''They played very good defense. They got 37 in the third, got a big cushion, and that was the game.''
With the game out of hand at 100-74 after three quarters, Lawson was the only starter for either team to log any minutes in the fourth quarter and he took a seat after just two minutes.
Lawson finished with 16 points and 12 assists and the Nuggets were an astonishing plus-40 when he was on the court.
''It was fun, everybody was into it,'' Faried said. ''I mean, it was a hell of a night.''
Notes: The last Denver player to participate in the slam dunk contest was J.R. Smith in 2009. ... Before the game, Nuggets coach George Karl met with 2013 U.S. Solheim Cup captain Meg Mallon and assistant captain Dottie Pepper along with LPGA Commissioner Mike Whan. Karl is a member of the Colorado Golf Club where the Americans and Europeans will compete for the cup this August.

Silent, peaceful, and mysterious are the words that best described Gedong Songo temple as a whole. Located on the slope of Ungaran temple, this Hindu temple that was built in the same era of Dieng temple offers exotica.
The bilateral relation between Mataram Kuno and India Kingdom didnt only deal with trade, but also with culture and belief. The influence of India culture can be seen from the architectural style of some temples spread around Indonesia. One of the temple complex using India style and the mixture of local culture is the complex of Gedong Songo Temple. It is located on the slope of Ungaran Mountain with 1200 meters height above the sea. There is not exact data when the temple was built, but based on the artefact around the temple and the resemblance of its physical appearance with the temple complex on Dieng highland, the experts concluded that Gedong Songo Temple was built in the same era, which was around 7th to 9th century in Sanjaya Dynasty era.
The trip to Gedong Songo temple is quite challenging since we have to pass steep grade and sharp bend. However, our hard trip was paid by its beauty. From the gate, we could see the temple impressively and sophisticatedly stood on the mountain slope in line from the lower ground to the highest. The smell of the wet soil, the new-cut grass, the pine rubber, the smell of wild flowers, and the mountain fresh air gave special sensation. The sun light coming through between the pine trees and giving out its brightness to the temple was like a perfect morning painting.
Before named Gedong Songo (nine buildings), this temple complex was named Gedong Pitoe (seven buildings) because when they were first found there were only seven groups of temple. After the other two were found later, the complex was named Gedong Songo Temple, which meant nine building complex. However, nowadays there are only five complex can be visited by the tourists because the other four are broken and only fragments remain. In addition, they have been preserved by Dinas Purbakala (Archeological Service). To enjoy the view of all temples, we can use two possible ways; the first way is by walking through the stony path from Gedong Temple I to Gedong Temple V, or by riding a horse through the opposite way. At that time, YogYES tried the second way by riding a horse and starting the adventure from Gedong Temple V located on the top of the highland, which was called Puncak Nirwana.
At the beginning, we were quite unsure of riding a horse in the forest and passing steep and curve road, but it started to disappear when the horse started to walk through the road. Our journey became so exciting when we heard a harmony of the horse walk, its whinnying sound, and the birdsong accompanied us. After the steep grade, the road went slope steadily, so we had to upright our body and hang on the horse tightly. From Gedong Temple V, YogYES could see a group of mountains consisted of Sindoro, Sumbing, Merbabu, and Telomoyo mountain in the distance. When we continued our journey to Gedong Songo IV, suddenly the sun was covered by cloud and the fog started to come. The sulphur odor was smelt from the hot water spring between Gedong Songo Temple IV and III. We felt like being in an unknown world where everything was silent and mysterious, yet it gave us eternal peace.
The entrance ticket to the complex is: IDR 5,000
The horse trip to Gedong Songo Temple:
Domestic tourist: IDR 50,000
Foreign tourist: IDR 70,000
The village horse trip:
Domestic tourist: IDR 25,000
Foreign tourist: IDR 35,000
The hot water well horse trip:
Domestic tourist: IDR 40,000
Foreign tourist: IDR 60,000

Winslow Family Y-DNA Project
What are we doing?
This group was newly formed in April of 2005. Our initial surname of interest is Winslow. We are looking for additional participants and look forward to working with you. Individuals interested in collaborating on family history and using genetic testing to assist our research efforts are encouraged to join. The primary goal of the Winslow Family Y-DNA project is to bring better clarity and understanding of who the ancestors of the Winslow family are and assist the family members in their understanding of their heritage.
Who's Involved?
If you are a male with a Winslow surname and are interested in researching your direct paternal line further, you can participate in the Y-DNA test. This group study is using the DNA test that looks at a portion of the DNA called the Y chromosome. The Y chromosome is unique to males and can be used to identify one's direct paternal line. For this reason, females cannot contribute directly, but can find a male relative (father, brother, cousin, etc) to be tested as a representative of her line. Females can also participate through honorary memberships or by acting as a Group Coordinator.
What have we accomplished?
Since the start of the project we have accomplished the following objectives:
We now have a 99% confidence of Kenelm Winslow (b.1599) DNA fingerprint.
We now have a 95% confidence of John Winslow (b.1597) DNA fingerprint.
We now have a 99% confidence of Timothy Winslow (b.1654) DNA fingerprint.
We were able to prove that the believe sons of Timothy, Thomas and John are indeed brothers.
Timothy Winslow and his descendants are not direct descendants of Edward Sr. (b.1560)
We have
proven that Timothy is not a descendant of John Winslow and Mary
I think this has been a very productive effort to date and given we have such a good base of information; I believe we will continue to produce answers for the Winslow family for some time to come.

Leaving the Relationship
If the person decides to leave the relationship, she/he is potentially in the greatest danger. Given that the abusive person may be experiencing a loss of control, he/she may resort to new and potentially more lethal forms of violence. Therefore, it is critical at this time to reassess the level of risk while strategizing ways the survivor can safely leave and to connect the client to a local domestic violence program. The following are important:
- A plan for where to go upon leaving.
- Possibility of using a domestic violence shelter.
- Supports (emotional and financial) in place.
- Consideration of obtaining a restraining order.
- Consideration of what to do if there is unexpected contact.
- If the survivor is fleeing/going into hiding, consideration of what to do in the event the abuser finds her/him after leaving.
In any case, decisions need to be left up to the discretion of the survivor. The survivor is the expert and is the best one to anticipate how the partner will respond to any changes that occur in the relationship.

In winter, the sun spends days hidden behind gray clouds, but clients of Always Tan & Skin Care stay glowing and bronzed. Voted Best Tanning Salon by viewers of NewsChannel 11 and users of KCBD and continually placed at the top in the Best of Lubbock awards by readers of Lubbock Avalanche Journal, the spacious tanning center is home to five levels of tanning beds. These powerful sunlight simulators hum within private rooms while elsewhere in the salon VersaSpa booths spray bodies with custom, sunless DHA formulas to create a natural-looking, moisturizing tan. In addition to shade alterations, Always Tan offers beautifying services such as teeth whitening and reinvigorating red-light facials.
Before their sessions, guests relax in the salon's elegant lobby, where a glimmering chandelier illuminates cushy chairs and pillows. Spread across the walls, shelves hold a rainbow of colorfully packaged lotions and skincare products so patrons can keep up their skincare routines at home.
A wildly successful alternative to traditional day spas—its more than 300 locations blanket 36 states and half a dozen countries—Planet Beach Contempo Spa is a futuristic relaxation station where state-of-the-art machines administer all the spa and tanning services. These friendly automatons sometimes replace familiar treatments, as in the Luminous facial, a light-based service that delivers blemish-busting results similar to those of a conventional facial. But other equipment maps out new spa territory entirely: the Hydro-Derma Fusion chamber moisturizes the whole body with nutrient-rich steam in order to offset the effects of a dry climate or a rear-end collision with a salt truck. Other machines whiten teeth, spray tan skin, and massage muscles.
Planet Beach operates on a gym-style membership system, meaning that members purchase packages or pay flat monthly rates. As members spend more time at the spa, they get to know the helpful assistants who are always on hand to demonstrate how to use the equipment without activating its ability to cry.
Delijah Salon & Boutique offers beauty treatments, clothing, and accessories, all in the name of keeping its clients looking stylish and chic. Hair services include keratin smoothing treatments, haircuts for men and women, and color services. Facials and waxing keep skin looking healthy and feeling smooth, and custom organic spray tans keep paleness at bay and give bodies a from-the-beach glow. There's also a boutique that features fashion and accessories as well as beauty products such as OPI lotions and nail polish.
At Michelle's Salon, professional stylists, licensed massage therapists, and skilled aestheticians treat clients to beautifying and stress-reducing skin treatments, massages, and hairstyling. Scissor wielders transform scalps into wearable works of art with highlights, deep conditioning, and styling, and skin specialists cleanse pores, reduce signs of aging, and remove unwanted follicles with facials and waxing.
Affinity Salon's team of licensed specialists consults closely with clients to ensure they get exactly what they want out of their hair, makeup, and nail services. To complete makeovers, they also offer lash extensions and tinting, eyebrow waxing and dying, and teeth-whitening treatments.
With a passion for beautifying façades and an eye for the latest trends, villus virtuoso Leah molds ladies' manes into their desired styles. After a consultation to determine each client's preferred 'do and favorite sitcom theme song, Leah tailors a cut in line with each guest's individual hair type and face shape. Like a squad of well-rehearsed cheerleaders, newly clipped hairs have more volume and synchronized swing. Luxurious products from brands such as Bed Head, JKS International, and Aquage smooth, plump, or bribe locks into casual styles before primped and prettied hairs sally out of the salon.

Happy New Year! I know everyone is doing a "New Years Resolution" post on their blogs. I guess this is going to be kind of like that. However, it's going to be a simple post. I learned from Gary Fong that setting arbitrary goals in life, sets arbitrary limits on your success. So, this year I'm not necessarily "resolving" to change things. Instead, I'm going to list things I'd l'm going to try to do differently. Here goes!
- Take more personal photographs. I spend a lot of time shooting for hired shoots (wedding, portraits, corporate, etc). I want to shoot a lot more personal work this year. Fine art, projects, etc. I have an idea for a project that will really challenge me. It will challenge me socially even more than photographically. Look for a blog post about that later.
- Shoot less. I know… you are saying, "WHAT?". The last wedding of 2009, I took over 3000 images. That's ridiculous! That would be 84 rolls of film at 36 exposure each. It took me three days just to trim down to 683 keepers. 683 images is overwhelming for a client. How do you choose from that many images? For 2010, I want to shoot less images, but make each of this images count more. Really focus on fantastic light, composition, and all the technical elements of the photograph. I'd much rather turn over 200 spectacular images, than 800 images with 50 or 60 spectacular images included.
- Teach more. My wife says I'm a natural teacher. I've also taught several times in my life. I want to pass on what I know to others.
- Spend less time behind my computer and more time out. Just out. Anywhere but behind the computer. Spend time with my kids, get out into the crowds, meet new people, etc.
- Exercise more. Yep. It goes on this list every year. I've got to get healthy! This is kind of an extension of "Spend less time behind my computer".
- Blog More!
- Last, but certainly not least, I want to participate in some missions work. I've done some work before, but I want to take it to the next level. I'd love to go on an international missions trip of some sort and document the trip photographically. I think that's an often overlooked aspect of mission work. Good photojournalism will help engage people to volunteer for future efforts.
And… blog posts are boring without pictures. So, here's a shot of my son, Brian:

Hotch will see dead people on Wednesday's Criminal Minds, but Thomas Gibson won't be watching — at least for now."It may be a little tough for me to watch with Haley and Foyet returning. It will be a while before I do," Gibson tells TVGuide.com. "Plus, I don't know how many people want to see the guy who killed their wife again!"

Criminal Minds showrunner Erica Messer can sum up Season 9 in one word: backstories. "That's our focus this year," she tells TVGuide.com. "We're telling backstories and origin stories. We want to give everybody some insight into our heroes because we give insight to the unsubs every week. We're going to hit 200 [episodes] and it feels like, 'Let's tell the audience things they never knew before.'"That involves an old beau for Garcia (Kristen Vangsness), The Reaper (C. Thomas Howell) and Haley (Meredith Monroe) returning (but not from the dead), and filling in the blanks of JJ's (A.J. Cook) year in the State Department during Season 6 — with some help from new BAU section chief Matt Cruz (Esai Morales), with whom she worked there. What's the deal with those two? How does Garcia's ex come back into the picture? Get the scoop on the season below:

Minority Report is about a cop in the future working in a division of the police department that arrests killers before they commit the crimes courtesy of some future viewing technology. Cruise's character has the tables turned on him
Based on a short story by the late Philip K. Dick, this science fiction-thriller reflects the writer's familiar preoccupation with themes of concealed identity and mind control. Tom Cruise stars as John Anderton, a Washington, D.C. detective in the year 2054. Anderton works for "Precrime," a special unit of the police department that arrests murderers before they have committed the actual crime. Precrime bases its work on the visions of three psychics or "precogs" whose prophecies of future events are never in error. When Anderton discovers that he has been identified as the future killer of a man he's never met, he is forced to become a fugitive from his own colleagues as he tries to uncover the mystery of the victim-to-be's identity. When he kidnaps Agatha (Samantha Morton), one of the precogs, he begins to formulate a theory about a possible frame-up from within his own department. Directed by Steven Spielberg, who hired a team of futurists to devise the film's numerous technologically advanced gadgets, Minority Report co-stars Colin Farrell, Max von Sydow, and Neal McDonough.

Instead of dusting with icing sugar, why not make your pie extra indulgent by adding a meringue topping?
- Place the pumpkin in a large saucepan, cover with water and bring to the boil. Cover with a lid and simmer for 15 mins or until tender. Drain pumpkin; let cool.
- Heat oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Roll out the pastry on a lightly floured surface and use it to line a 22cm loose-bottomed tart tin. Chill for 15 mins. Line the pastry with baking parchment and baking beans, then bake for 15 mins. Remove the beans and paper, and cook for a further 10 mins until the base is pale golden and biscuity. Remove from the oven and allow to cool slightly.
- Increase oven to 220C/200C fan/gas 7. Push the cooled pumpkin through a sieve into a large bowl. In a separate bowl, combine the sugar, salt, nutmeg and half the cinnamon. Mix in the beaten eggs, melted butter and milk, then add to the pumpkin purée and stir to combine. Pour into the tart shell and cook for 10 mins, then reduce the temperature to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Continue to bake for 35-40 mins until the filling has just set.
- Leave to cool, then remove the pie from the tin. Mix the remaining cinnamon with the icing sugar and dust over the pie. Serve chilled.

Comments, questions and tips
We tried this recipe last weekend with a few minor adjustments. The main one being that we substituted milk for condensed milk but used the same volume. Like most Brits we had never tried pumpkin pie before so didn't know what to expect! Turns out that this was absolutely delicious, so much so that we made a second one for our parents & also had enough mix left over to make some mini tarts too. We did also used home made pastry which I think adds to the flavour. Will definitely be using this recipe again!
Cooked this for Sunday lunch and it was LOVELY !!!! Never had anything like it dusted my shop brought pastry with icing sugar to sweeten it up buttered flan dish whizzed it all up and it was easy didnt look quite like the picture but tasted amazin My nan thought it was apple crumble if i told her it was pumkin pie she would of said errrr but she loved it lol !!!
I made my own pastry (there's nothing ready made or frozen where we live) but it's something I'm quite good at. It also gave me an excuse to crank up the air conditioning and escape the 38 degrees of summer and 98% humidity.
I had to use a ceramic tart dish, pricking the pastry base liberally as we don't have baking beans... the things one takes for granted in the West!
I steam quarter pumpkins regularly, in the Japanese style, but when my partner's Aunt sent us a whole one, I decided I'd have to use it as soon as possible. We hate cinnamon so I used a tablespoon of pulped ginger and slightly less than the stated quantity of nutmeg.
For the liquid content, I used a combination of milk, fresh cream and strong ocha (green tea) and substituted fine, soft brown sugar.
The suggested cooking time seemed to be about right and the result was pretty damn oishii! Served it warm with New Zealand Hokey Pokey ice cream. Fantastic!
Made this 3 times recently. First time with squash then twice with pumpkin. I find it best to pour the mix on top of the pumpkin in the blender then blitz it.
I'm really having problems with pastry though! This time it got stuck to the sides of the loose bottomed tart tin. Are you meant to butter the tin? Also I've looked at techniques for putting the pastry in the tin, but it always breaks around the edges as soon as any pastry touches the edge of the tin it breaks off rather than resting on there while I unroll the rest off the rolling pin.
The first time I used bought shortcrust pastry, 2nd time I made my own with a bit or caster sugar. Latest effort I put two table spoons of icing sugar instead of caster sugar
Sprinkling with the icing sugar seems pointless because it just disappears and gets absorbed rather than looking like the picture!
I'd never had pumpkin pie and thought the recipe needed a little extra. I used a mixture of butternut and pumpkin, used condensed milk instead, doubled up on spices and used desiccated coconut and a splash of vanilla. Top with pecans and a swirl of...well, mix up condensed milk with a little melted butter, add a couple teaspoons of black treacle, and a couple teaspoons of cinnamon, mixture should be thick...tastes divine, very rich mind. Anyway if you swirl this once cooled on top, it makes a wonderfully decadent experience. Pumpkin doesn't have much flavour but it adds body, I think for a lighter version you could stick to the recipe, but definitely use butternut instead, just for the fuller richer flavour. I'm baking tartlets as I write,I'll let you know how it goes...
Really tasty and very easy to make, slightly time consuming but well worth it. I bought sweet shortcrust pastry which was the trickiest but for me as it kept falling apart after rolling it out, and it also shrunk down the sides of the tin as it baked. I also somehow didn't read the part which said to sieve the pumpkin so I just mixed it all up with a hand mixer which worked fine, and actually gave me left over mix so I will make mini pumpkin pies today with the left over pastry.
In a panic with a large saucepan of steamed pumpkin flesh, and the pastry case made, my old faithful American cook book for the pie recipe was no where in sight, so I turned to the internet for help, and came across this recipe.
Pie turned out great. Sweeter than I have made in the past, but with a lovely scent of the spices.
I made it as stated apart from steaming, rather than boiling, which my old recipe instructed. Next time I will tone down the sweetness by using brown sugar as previously mentioned, and I will put in the ginger, that my old recipe included
Yum, yum, I did this today also with Asda ready made cases :) also used dark and light sugar, used extra cinnamon and ground nutmeg and mixed spice. Additionally I noticed that the Americans used evaporated milk a lot with pumpkin pie so I substituted the milk for evaporate , ohhhh my what a treat :) and with 2 pies have enough for my glass of baileys tonight
This was fab - we carve a pumpkin every year for halloween but have almost always chucked out the insides. This year I decided to cook with them, and so ended up with a whole jar of spiced roasted seeds and this gigantic, super-tasty pie. This recipe is going in my recipe book, and the contents of my pumpkins won't go in the bin ever again!
This is the first time I have made pumpkin pie and I am thrilled with the results, even my husband who said he doesnt like it actually tasted it and thought it was great, thats maybe because I put ginger in it too. I only made this because I hollowed out the pumpkins for halloween and didnt want to waste the flesh, but after the success I will be making it more often not just on halloween.
I tried this last night. It was my first time too, I would say this is probably the case for most UK users. After researching other recipes, they all say you do not have to actually sieve the pumpkin - you can just pulse it in a blender - that would've saved me & anybody else who took it literally A LOT of effort!! Also, because I am a relatively new baker, it would've also been helpful to mention that you only need take it out when a knife/cocktail stick inserted into the middle comes out clean - it is really not done at "just set" as stated - it's a bit wobbly/mushy if you take it out at that, and the texture only firms up a bit once refrigerated over night. But otherwise thrilled to have achieved this and you do live and learn, next time I will just stick it in a blender :-)

At last, the answer to one of broadcasting's great challenges: how do you fend off an insatiable John Humphrys? Answer, superbly provided by Andrew Lansley: you swamp the Today studio in a deluge of facts without pausing for breath. You put cash-strapped hospitals in a context that the Audit Commission would struggle to follow. You go on and expertly on. "Can I just get a word in edgeways?" pleaded Humphrys. But it wasn't worth it. The health secretary seemed to have been training for 10 years for just this moment. Or maybe for Just a Minute.

So I recently re-connected with a child-hood friend, Ariel Alejandro. I knew him when I was kid living in Mexico, he lived in my neighborhood and we used to run around playing in the dirt, or whatever kids used to do back in the day. When my family moved away and we migrated I never saw him again. About 25 years later, I found out that he's actually living in Palm Springs and performs as a Mariachi at a near by Mexican Restaurant on the weekends. It was such a weird thing to run into him and get caught up a bit. After we talked for a bit, we found that we have so many things in common and I'm definitely making an effort to stay in touch.
He told me about a new project he had been working on for a while called MariachiSocial.com and so I wanted to try and capture him explaining what this new project is all about. We decided to shoot the whole thing in spanish because of the nature of the project, we felt that the audience that might be interested in the info would get more out of it if they heard the info in spanish, plus I also figured that he'd be able to express himself more freely if he explained it all in his native tongue.
I'm always interested in what drives people. What influences them and fuels them with the energy to be passionate about whatever they do. I noticed very quickly while speaking with Ariel that Mariachi music wasn't just a job for him, this was a whole lifestyle for him and this intrigued me and made me want to feature him in a video. I felt that he would make a great candidate for an indiespot feature because his passion for this style of music really was obvious as he expressed himself.
Preparing for a shoot like this was pretty easy, only because along with my brother Saul, we've been shooting a lot more event coverage type of shoots and this was pretty much the same, except it included an initial interview. So here's some of the things we took with us.
For the interview we used a Canon 5DmkII with a 50mm f1.2 L Series on a tripod. I setup the main shot, but because I was also doing the interview, I wasn't too happy with the framing, it was too close and he shifted a bit from his starting position. The second angle was a Canon 7D with a 24-70mm f2.8 L Series also on a tripod, my brother Saul was working that camera, but he was also getting extra shots with another 5DmkII with a super wide 15mm f2.8 mounted on a Slider. He was moving around with this one, just capturing extra shots, and some of those came out really good. Slider shots for interviews always look really good, I definitely wanna start using these a lot more during interviews like this. The only problem is, that it's a lot more setup to get slider shots, and you don't always have that, specially when you only have about an hour to shoot and it's just you shooting. It's always nice when you have help, so you can focus on the content you're trying to capture.

About Us
TheDailySail was originally founded under the name madforsailing.com and went live just prior to the Sydney Olympics in 2000. James Boyd joined as Editor in the spring of 2001. Two significant landmarks occurred during early 2002 when madforsailing picked up the Sealine Marine Media Award at the prestigious British Nautical Awards - the first website ever to do so. Shortly after madforsailing also became the first marine website to become fully subscription. In October 2002 madforsailing was acquired by Sailing Media Ltd, with James Boyd and Andy Nicholson as shareholders, and was relaunched under the name TheDailySail under who's auspices it continues to thrive.
Who's involved...
James Boyd, Editor and Publisher
Son of UK marine industry figure Patrick Boyd, James spent much of his youth being dragged away on holidays on board his family's Iroquois catamarans to exotic destinations such as Chichester Harbour and the south of France. On leaving school he was offered the alternative of a four year Music degree or a prolonged trip to the Caribbean to teach music on board a yacht. Choosing the 'University of Life', a tour of the Caribbean was enough to confirm his desire for a career in yachting and soon after his return to the UK James became a partner in his father's yacht brokerage, Patrick Boyd Multihulls.
At the same time James became fascinated by the fledgling 1980s multihull racing circuit in France and so began a career in yachting photojournalism. After early articles appearing in Multihulls Magazine in the US and Yachts & Yachting, he was soon working regularly for magazines and newspapers around the world such as Yachting World and the Daily Telegraph newspaper in the UK to Kazi magazine in Japan, Multicoques magazine in France, Sailing and Sailing World in the USA, etc. In 1989 aged 24 he gave up yacht broking to take up a full time career in yachting journalism as Features Editor of Yachting World magazine. He was subsequently promoted to Assistant Editor until, after a 12 year tenure at the world's best yachting magazine, he was headhunted in 2001 to take up the editorship of madforsailing.
Aside from his written work, James is also employed by both radio and TV companies as an expert commentator on yacht racing, regularly contributes to magazines such as Yachting World, Sailing World and Zeilen and with fellow yachting journalist Andy Rice runs the media services company Sailing Intelligence.
He lives in West London, plays keyboards in the Incredibly Strange Film Band (available for weddings and bar-mitzvahs) and occasionally gets to drive his 1972 Triumph TR6 convertible.
Andy Nicholson, Commercial Director
Andy's focus is on all the non-editorial aspects of TheDailySail. His role includes managing and developing the site, sales/marketing/pr and commercial opportunities, looking after subscribers and writing as required.
Andy caught the racing bug while at Portsmouth University after teenage sailing with his parents. A fine balance was struck at university which saw Andy graduate with a degree in Economics and Geography - and as holder of the Student Yachting World Cup.
Two subsequent years in the world of full-time sailing finally saw Andy arrive on the streets of London (the conversation started in the Caribbean with a Swedish TV Exec…) and start a career in advertising sales. Starting at ITV - when the audience really was 35 million people, then heading to the world of cool bar postcards and ultimately to the .com revolution - joining madforsailing ten years ago. Andy then joined James in TheDailySail.
Andy's racing has mostly been in one designs. He has competed at national and international level many times in classes such as the Cork 1720, Melges 24, Mumm 30 and Farr 40, usually as bowman. He has sailed across the North Atlantic in an IOR maxi and cruised the Channel in a Contessa 26. Favourite anecdotes include striking oil whilst practicing for the 2001 Farr 40 Worlds in the Solent, and Ian Walker saving his right foot from 'amputation by spinnaker sheet' in Miami. He is married to Jessica, an intrepid sailor herself, and is the doting father of daughter Maggie.

Bob Mariano credits Walt Disney for inspiring his chain's grocery shopping experience.
"I mean, when you think about it, Disney always was an experience, and that's what it was all about. People want to be entertained," said Mariano, the chairman and president of Milwaukee-based Roundy's. "When you looked at the research in grocery shopping, people thought it was drudgery, so you have to change what goes on in the store."
On Jan. 30, just days before the grand opening of his 14th Mariano's Fresh Market, located on the corner of Route 22 and Quentin Road in Lake Zurich, Mariano pulled back the curtain on his company's recipe for success.
"I think you have to innovate. If you don't innovate, you die, and that's really for any industry," said Mariano, while leading the Lake Zurich Courier on a tour of his newest food theme park.
Drawing on his previous experience as CEO of Dominick's, Mariano set out to create a new standard in the grocery industry. He built the Mariano's brand by relying on the philosophy that past success does not guarantee future success.
Listening to customers and employees, he said it became clear people were craving a new grocery shopping experience.
The new Lake Zurich store is a restaurant, nutritional consultant and grocery store all wrapped up into a 74,000-square-foot package. Mariano's aims to appeal to those in need of kitchen necessities and those who are willing to pay a bit extra for a high-end product.
"We have the usual and the unusual, the conventional and the organic, and we have that assortment and freshness with wonderful people, affordable pricing in an atmosphere that is very much reflected with the community," Mariano said.
Innovative store features include a health key labeling system that identifies gluten-free, organic, vegan and heart-healthy products, so shoppers don't need to strain to find the right foods. A dietitian is on-site to answer quick questions or offer sit-down consultations.
"We help them, give them good information, good choices, and let them decide what they want to do," Mariano said.
Another piece of the Mariano's business model is the vibe.
Like a Disney park, Mariano fosters a staff that takes pride in the company.
Each store hires between 400 and 500 employees. Many are adults fulfilling careers as managers, cake decorators, chefs and nutritionists. Others are high school students working part-time.
"That's one of the things we get — that moms and dads like their sons and daughters to work with us, as we kind of get them to do things that they normally don't: 'Hello,' 'how are you?' 'please,' 'thank you.' It's in there, but they just don't let it out so we kind of get them to express themselves," Mariano said.
Roundy's, Inc. will open 16 new Mariano's stores in 2014, including 11 purchased from Dominick's and five built from scratch. The company plans to close the year with 29 stores, and five more are already scheduled to open in 2015.
Currently only in the Chicago market, Mariano is confident is brand will succeed elsewhere as well.
"We believe that this format does have opportunity outside the city of Chicago and the Chicagoland area. We certainly haven't done the homework to decide where, and it's really, quite frankly, too soon because we've already had plenty of work to do here in this market," he said. "But at some point, I think we'll investigate where other markets might make some sense for us."
