Kurt Sutter Can't Shut Up & Rips Walking Dead, Kirkman & AMC In New YouTube Video
Kurt Sutter Can't Shut Up & Rips Walking Dead, Kirkman & AMC In New YouTube Video
Kurt Sutter, the creator of Sons of Anarchy, on January 2nd via his YouTube account, slammed AMC and The Walking Dead. However, this time he singled out Robert Kirkman, the creator of The Walking Dead, which was a direct response to Kirkman's tweet that Sutter was "ranting about things he knows nothing about."
Watch the video, but be warned it's filled with expletives.
In the YouTube video, Sutter states, "The process of showrunning and vision is not something everyone can do," he explains. "You have to have somebody who understands the process of making a television show week after week."
"Robert is an amazing visual artist and a graphic artist, [but] he knows very little about TV," claims Sutter. "And the reins keep going back to him in this process, and he doesn't know how to run a show."
Sutter claims that showrunning is "a specific skill that comes innately; it's part of the talent, it's part of the creative process."
Sutter suggests that AMC's "fear-based" decision-making results in "death to the creative process."
Sutter then goes on to discuss the future of the The Walking Dead, "The show has tremendous following; has legs. They're going to plug somebody else, some pour soul, in there. My sense is they won't even hire a showrunner. They'll throw a s**tload of executives at it and a poor sap on the writing staff. And that poor sap will ultimately be just expediting the notes and the vision of non-creative people, or at least non-creative TV people."
"That'll work for a minute," Sutter continued. "In Season 4, when this will all happen, the numbers will be big, and people will show up. Will it continue to do well? No. My sense is that without somebody like a Glen Mazzara running that show, eventually it will lose focus and the narratives will run out of steam, and it won't be able to build off of itself, and it will suffer."
"I have tremendous amount of respect for Gale Anne Hurd. She's very writer friendly, very supportive of artists. My sense is that she's caught between a rock and a hard place. And she's trying to continue to put out the best show she can under those circumstances."
Sutter believes, "I think people will keep shooting themselves in the foot out of fear and out of ignorance."

Impact International produces squeeze tube and collapsible tube packaging for toothpaste, foods, pharmaceuticals, personal care & household chemicals. Impact specializes in squeeze tubes. Because the focus is only on tubes, Impact is at the forefront of development. There are so many options of tube size, colours, decoration, caps, etc that each tube may be custom designed for the product it will contain. Squeeze tubes are not normally available as stock items, even for long running variants, because they take up a lot of room to store. So you need a tube supplier with the versatility to make the tube that you want, when you want it.
Impact makes all the main types of squeeze tube. Each has its own strengths, advantages and special features. If you know what type of tube you need, quickly find the relevant section from the drop down menus above.

4 College Tax Breaks to Remember
NEW YORK (TheStreet) -- Parents of college students or those working on their own degree should know of the many tax breaks linked to college spending that can make a big difference when you ship your taxes off to the IRS.
Yet a recent study from Sallie Mae says only 41% of parents with kids in college take advantage of education tax credits or student loan interest deductions.
"It is worth it to learn what tax breaks for education expenses are available and how you can qualify," said Nikki Lavoie, a Sallie Mae spokeswoman. "Filing for education tax credits and student interest tax deductions is one way to make college more affordable."
Fortunately, it's not too late to grab these tax breaks, with more than a month to go until tax deadline day, April 15.To get going, Sallie Mae points the way to these college-based tax breaks. See if you qualify: American Opportunity Tax Credit: The AOTC was recently extended through the 2017 tax year, and for the 2013 tax year it allows college students and parents who pay for college to claim a tax credit of up to $2,500 for costs related to tuition, fees and textbooks, but only for the first four years of college. To get the maximum credit amount, a taxpayer must have modified adjusted gross income of less than $80,000, or $160,000 for joint filers. Low-income families who owe no tax may be eligible for a credit refund of up to $1,000 for each qualifying student. Lifetime Learning Credit: The LLC is another tax credit designed to cut the costs of tuition, fees and college expenses. The credit can rise to as much as $2,000; a taxpayer must have modified adjusted gross income in 2013 of less than $53,000 (or $107,000 for joint filers) to qualify. Students in undergraduate and graduate schools are eligible. IRS Form 1098-E to determine the amount of any potential deduction. Tuition and Fees Deduction: This deduction can go up to $4,000 and is available to taxpayers with modified adjusted gross income of less than $65,000, or $130,000 for joint filers. Use IRS Form 1098-T to help calculate the deduction. For more tax break information, check out IRS Publication 970, Tax Benefits for Education, or consult a professional tax preparer.

December 22, 2014
COLUMBIA, Tenn. (AP) -- Authorities say three suspects have been charged with arson following a fire that destroyed a mosque.
The fire at the Islamic Center of Columbia is believed to have started around 5 a.m. Saturday morning.
Later that night authorities arrested 19-year-old Jonathan Stone, 23-year-old Michael Golden and 32-year-old Eric Baker -- all from Columbia.
Investigators also found drawings of swastikas and other graffiti at the center.
Authorities said Sunday that the men are being held in the Maury County Jail and face possible federal charges for attacking a house of worship and other federal crimes.

ChessBrain: a Linux-Based Distributed Computing Experiment
On May 27, 2003, 646 machines worked together to play a single game of chess. This was the first time such a feat had been accomplished, and it was made possible by the power of Linux, open-source software and hundreds of contributors from over 37 different countries.
ChessBrain (chessbrain.net) is a distributed computation project that uses the idle processing power of distributed machines to solve computationally intensive problems. ChessBrain is a system focused on playing chess, but the underlying system can be adapted for other games as well as for non-game-related applications.
Imagine playing a game against an opponent, except every time he moves, you grab the phone and start calling friends for help. You call Sue, describe the current position and ask her to call you back when she has an answer. Then you call Ryan to ask whether you should worry about a pending attack; again, you ask for a call back when he has an answer. After calling 20 other friends, you sit back and wait for replies. This is similar to how ChessBrain plays chess.
ChessBrain consists of a Linux-based server application, the SuperNode, and client software known as PeerNodes. The SuperNode connects to an on-line game server, which allows visiting members to play against one another, challenge ChessBrain to a game or watch ChessBrain play against its current opponent. While ChessBrain plays, it examines positions, dispatches hundreds of potential moves to remote PeerNodes for analysis, collects feedback from the PeerNodes, processes that information and makes its best move. ChessBrain exists as an ever-changing pool of networked machines. Philosophically and scientifically, it's a beautiful thing.
I started ChessBrain as a distributed computing experiment in the summer of 2001. By the end of that year, I had a working prototype and needed a place to host the server. My longtime friend, Walter Howard, the webmaster of HackerWhacker (hackerwhacker.com), offered to host the server on his personal T1 line.
On June 9, 2002, ChessBrain appeared on Slashdot, and the positive exposure resulted in hundreds of new PeerNode operators. Gavin Roy, one of the new members, owns the bteg network (www.bteg.net) and offered to host a SuperNode server free of charge. On June 27, I met Gavin for dinner and handed this near stranger a SuperNode server on a Pentium III machine. ChessBrain gained another server, I gained another friend, and Gavin has become an important supporter of the ChessBrain Project. I transitioned the SuperNode over to Gavin's site, and Walt continued to host the original SuperNode as a secondary backup and experimental server.
During the months that followed, we gained an amazing amount of exposure. Few seemed to mind that ChessBrain couldn't actually play chess. The first eight months of 2002 were spent working on the SuperNode server and porting the PeerNode client to Microsoft Windows and Apple's Mac OS X.
Once the server and clients worked well, the focus was on getting ChessBrain actually to play. The wbec-ridderkerk (www.wbec-ridderkerk.nl) site in the Netherlands lists nearly 200 freely available chess-playing programs. I reviewed a few, looking for one with relatively clean code and the ability to compile under several operating systems. I found an ideal program in Beowulf, written by Colin Frayn, who was then a PhD candidate at Cambridge University in England. We exchanged several e-mails and Colin joined the project. We collaborated entirely on-line using e-mail and instant messaging (IM) and began making necessary modifications. Colin adapted his chess program for distributed computing, and I modified the SuperNode and PeerNode clients to use his engine. The time difference between London and Los Angeles proved ideal. I would IM Colin at my 3AM and again during the day. By my late afternoon, Colin would head for bed, and I would work through his night. Before crashing, I would leave feedback for Colin. This round-the-clock cycle continued for months.
Colin adapted his original Beowulf chess engine to become two chess-playing components, BeoServer and BeoClient. He developed the pair to support distributed chess play within the ChessBrain framework. On December 22, 2002, ChessBrain played its first game of distributed chess. By January 2003, the ChessBrain community had provided 62 machines and was testing regular builds.

Nice Script :P
I hope it will bring the Thing further.
As Linux continues to play an ever increasing role in corporate data centers and institutions, ensuring the integrity and protection of these systems must be a priority. With 60% of the world's websites and an increasing share of organization's mission-critical workloads running on Linux, failing to stop malware and other advanced threats on Linux can increasingly impact an organization's reputation and bottom line.

Most companies incorporate backup procedures for critical data, which can be restored quickly if a loss occurs. However, fewer companies are prepared for catastrophic system failures, in which they lose all data, the entire operating system, applications, settings, patches and more, reducing their system(s) to "bare metal." After all, before data can be restored to a system, there must be a system to restore it to.
In this one hour webinar, learn how to enhance your existing backup strategies for better disaster recovery preparedness using Storix System Backup Administrator (SBAdmin), a highly flexible bare-metal recovery solution for UNIX and Linux systems.

In selecting Stilton, look for cheese that has the blue mold spread out to the rind. The taste is intense, and the cheese should be rich and creamy, not dry and crumbly. Stilton purchased when it is too young can be bitter and dry; ask for a taste first. It matures in 9 to 15 weeks.
Stilton is a protected designation of origin (PDO) cheese. It is the only British cheese graced by its own certification trademark.

This was of course an early morning joke – we were on a dusty balcony in Ard El Golf, a long way off from the Egyptian-Israeli border. It never did rain and we didn't find out what the booming noises ever were – not dissimilar to a supersize Iftar cannon, but at completely the wrong time of year. Getting back to Dubai, however I came across something that's a little less of a joke:
[23 miles off the coast of Gaza, at 15:30pm yesterday] – Israeli Occupation Forces attacked and boarded the Free Gaza Movement boat, the "Spirit of Humanity," abducting 21 human rights workers from 11 countries, including Noble laureate Mairead Maguire and former U.S. Congresswoman Cynthia McKinney (see below for a complete list of passengers). The passengers and crew are being forcibly dragged toward Israel.
Cairo itself was a really sick experience, albeit an exercise in imbibed hairballs (from two adorable Persian cats) and chaos. Perhaps I went expecting to magically be able to speak 3amiya (colloquial) – I couldn't, though I got along fine with Fusha and acquired Shami/Khaleeji polymumblings. Towards the end I found it much easier to follow conversations to boot, while still finding more complex (b)olitical ones difficult. Many wonderful people, interesting insights with regards to Egypt-Palestine, good films at the Cairo Refugee Film Festival I volunteered at, unfortunate communions with both the Cairo Scholars list and a toilet bowl (many comparisons to be made from utility to aesthetics no?) an 3oud (!) and a month later, there's not much to say. Or perhaps I'm still residually exhausted – something in the pollution-meets soundscapes? But here's a few pictures anyway. Mostly from a mosque in the Khan-el-Khalili area before my camera imploded slightly, magically, if frustratingly coming back to life in the last two days (Flickr, is of course still charmingly blocked in the UAE).
I'm currently digging the idea of Chaosmosis – more in Guattari's sense, but I recently came across an alternate definition which I quite like:
CHAOS (stable but non-linear behavior) + OSMOSIS (fluid concentration equilibrium via movement across a semi-permeable membrane)…I defined the word thus: The osmotic-like absorption/integration of chaotic behavior and flux, given a similar (dynamic/variable) environment. However, in my thinking and writing, I came to apply the term to both physical and psychological 'structures' and behaviors. Essentially, chaosmosis is an adaptive strategy, both physical and mental, given an environment of continuous flux.
One all too common theme, incidently, was the below travesty, replete with the refrain that 'Obama is a man of peace' – the plaid shirt in the picture is that of Khan El Khalili shop owner Gamal Shosha, as featured in this Guardian article, worth a read (one of the writers also has a pretty interesting blog here. Interestingly, in straw polls of cab drivers In other non-news, a surprisingly common response to what they thought of the filasteeniin was that they felt sorry for them, but they (the palestinians) had brought it onto themselves (!), and that people were starving in Egypt and had their own problems. Fair enough, but some followed this with the observation that the Palestinians are better off under the Israelis than the Othmans – I know next to nothing about the latter, worth looking up it seems.
I'll hopefully get back to Cairo either in December-January or next summer anyways, this time for a decent length of time. Tomorrow I go to India – Mumbai, Srinagar, Delhi and in between – for the next three weeks before returning to NYC via Dubai. I sense this might be the last 'free-ish' summer I'll have for a while, might try to shuffle around the Northe(a)st for some of August, and if we can find affordable transport/Chinatown bus tickets, Tennessee! I doubt I'll be in the US for a long while after I graduate, so worth giving a go an occidentalising/ exoticising some Americana for a change?

To clarify the anomalous transport mechanism of field-reversed configuration (FRC) plasma, an approach based on electron particle simulation with perturbation fields has been calculated. From our results, the possibility of angular momentum loss was predicted from the electron flow velocity profile time evolution. Also, there was more particle loss (transport) than transport calculations without perturbation fields.

Is time-on-site a useful measure for online communities?
I've read a few posts and articles this week discussing a report from showing that Facebook users spend more time on site than Twitter's. These articles make the assumption that increased time-on-site is a good thing; that it is a sign of greater engagement and involvement with the site.
It is certainly true for social networks that there are significant benefits to be gained from increasing time-on-site. Perhaps not for the immediate benefits of greater engagement, but more because it is a sign of the increasingly important role that any particular social network is playing in a user's life. We've written in the past how Facebook's valuation is possibly related to a shift in our use of the internet to put social networks at the heart of a user's experience. And in this context, time on site is important.
But in an online community, where we are interested in shared ideas and experience rather than share of time online, is time-on-site a useful measure of engagement?
As a health measure, we use time-on-site a lot at FreshNetworks, it is useful to measure and monitor over time and together with other health measures (such as number of unique users, depth of visit and frequency of visit). But a greater time-on-site does not, in itself, mean a better online community. We are more interested in the share of ideas than the share of time online. We want people to join, benefit from and, if they wish, add to the debates and conversations in the community. We want their contributions, even if they only spend a small amount of time on the site itself. Online communities are about shared ideas and interests – we want people who add to them.
So time-on-site is a useful health measure, but it does not necessarily determine the success of your online community. That's why we think that the success of your online community should be tied to specific business objectives, and not to relatively arbitrary measures such as time-on-site and unique visitors. We have very successful online communities with only a hundred members, and very successful ones where people visit less often or for less time. It's about establishing your business objectives and then working to maximise your share of ideas and share of insight. Not fighting to get more time spent on your site if that time is not productive or helping you reach your aims.

Couldn't agree more. 'Quality over quantity'. Relevantly identified within the context of the 'provider'.
Measures like 'time on site' are derived from the advertising roots of internet stuff crossed with the providers' childlike need for attention; along with page views they indicate the providers' need to fill us up with adverts and prove the worth of their venture – it's good old fashioned top down stuff.
But 'organisations' need this data to make decisions, don't they? (a thesis I wrote a long time ago indicated that many orgs say they will understand the stats churned out by the websites they spend so much on, but they don't integrate the stats into their business decision making processes).
When CoPs were trendy in Knowledge Management, people also tried to assert quantitative assessments there, but on downloads of objects that indicate knowledge exchange (docs, threads etc.) – that didn't really resonate either – and now we're in complex narrative land as you know.
In a world of upwardly mobile indicators in a generation who equate growth to success, in a domain which generates more stats than we can imagine, the temptation to seek 'proof' in quantitative data is rife.
And how to coach an organisation who 'need' rational/measureable/visible business information when in communities we are collaborating as humans, who don't experience things that way – it's experiential, so how to bridge that big gap without losing the quality?
So… being that a community space is 'shared', 'co-owned', how about asking the community to identify the indicators?Ed Jun 8, 2009Reply

Not to mention that "time on site" is horrible if that time is spent by trolls, troublemakers and others who are not vested in the "success" of the community. I think time spent says a lot about the community, but we have to remember that people work to fit communities into the flow of their everyday lives. So, a member who spends 15 minutes 5-6 times per day because that is what their schedule allows is just as if not *more* valuable than those who spend 4 hours per visit. I have lots of community members who come during a lunch hour, or spend 20 minutes before work while drinking coffee catching up with everyone and commenting on blogs and profiles.
having people who engage that way on a daily basis is huge. I believe there are many metrics that come into play when measuring success.

After the operation, the patient will spend 5 - 10 days in the hospital, the first 1 - 3 days in an intensive-care unit (ICU). Chest tubes will be in place for the first 2 to 3 days to drain any residual blood and fluid from around the heart. Heart functions will be monitored. The full benefits from the operation may not be clear until 3 - 6 months after surgery. Sexual activity may be resumed 3 - 4 weeks after surgery. All activities that do not cause fatigue are permitted, but the patient must not strain the healing chest bone (sternum).

Hawaiian Baked Rice
"Hawaiian" (pineapples and ham) baked rice with cheese … delicious & comforting
I hadn't plan to make or post a baked rice recipe so soon after making sausage baked rice, but I had leftover pineapples and ham from making hawaiian pizza (recipe coming soon, stay tuned) and this seems like the perfect use of the leftover ingredients. Plus, baked rice is a family favourite which never fails to please. I consider baked rice in the "safe foods" category so I make it when I want to eat something good. Besides chicken & mushroom, broccoli-potato-sausage as well as sausage, this is another combination of ingredients that work well for baked rice. I'm not sure if this applies in other countries as well, but over here, it seems that as long as there are pineapples and ham in a dish, the eateries will name the dish as "hawaiian" in the menu. Cliché as it may be, pineapple & ham is a tried-and-tested and wonderful food pairing nevertheless.

A whole tray of hawaiian baked rice … baked rice is wonderful party food
(Serves 4-6)
– 1 1/2 cups uncooked rice
– Water to cook rice
– 5 garlic cloves
– 1 1/2 cup pineapple chunks (canned or fresh)
– 2 to 3 slices of ham, cut to small squares
– 15g butter (or use olive oil for healthier version)
– generous tablespoons mushroom soup (I use Campbell's, straight from the can – no need to mix with water or cook)
– Shredded Mozzarella Cheese (about 150g)
– Shredded Cheddar Cheese (about 150g)
– Salt & Pepper
– Parsley (garnishing)
1. Wash and rinse uncooked rice until water runs clear.
2. In a heated wok or saucepan, melt the butter. Add the washed rice, salt and black pepper to taste. Stir well.
3. Wait for the rice mixture to cool, then transfer to a rice cooker. Add the garlic cloves. Add water to cook rice (I use slightly more than 1 1/2 cups of water – adjust the water amount according to your cooker).
4. When the rice is cooked, stir in the pineapples and sliced ham, saving some as toppings. Portion out the rice into oven-safe baking dishes (you can also use disposable aluminium tray) until about half the depth of the dish.
5. Smear some mushroom soup sauce on top of the rice, and topped with a layer of shredded mozzarella and cheddar cheese followed by the rest of the pineapples and ham.
6. Baked in a pre-heated oven at 200C (392F) for about 20-25 minutes, or until all the cheese has melted and is very slightly browned. Garnish with parsley if desired.
Ok ignore the cocktail umbrella … I know it is a "cheesy" prop :P

Hi wiffy,
Sorry i don't really understand part 2 & 3 after reading a few times.
Can you explain to me ?
2. In a heated wok or saucepan, melt the butter. Add the washed rice, salt and black pepper to taste. Stir well. ( need to add in water?? Do you mean add the washed uncooked rice after draining out from the water, add in salt & pepper. How much salt & pepper do i need to put if for serving of 2 ppl? )
3. Wait for the rice mixture to cool, then transfer to a rice cooker. Add the garlic cloves. Add water to cook rice (I use slightly more than 1 1/2 cups of water – adjust the water amount according to your cooker).
For part 3,
Wait for the rice mixture to cool (does it mean we need to boil part 2? )
If without adding olive oil or butter, will it be not as tasty ?
Thank you for ur help. =)
Hi there,
2. Do not need to add water, you are stir-frying uncooked, washed (and drained) rice for fragrance only. Just add a pinch of salt and a pinch of pepper.
3. Certain rice cookers (the older types) operate via heat sensor – hence it will think that the rice is already cooked since they have been fried in the wok prior to this. that's the reason for waiting for the rice mixture to cook.
Add a bit of butter, it will make the rice more aromatic.
Sorry for the confusion, will reword the recipe to make it clearer when I have time.
How long would this take ? the whole process ?
Can i use spaghetti sause instead of campbell's mushroom soup?
Hi, so coincident I also have the leftover of hams and pineapple from my ingredients of hawaiian pizza. I want to make this too! :) Can I know what size of the baking dish I should use?

Ninja shared the article, and Pope shared an excellent comment. But I want to talk about it here!
First I want to talk about how disappointed I am in the comments over there. So many "I believe in the right to an abortion but you cannot be happy about it" type comments.
Graby Sauce has a great summary:
So, judging from the comments here, a woman has a right to choose, but she can't be happy about it (in fact, she should feel intense shame), and if she should know better and gets pregnant anyway (which describes approximately 100% of women after they've had sex ed in high school), then she is an idiot who doesn't deserve sympathy or to live without judgment or to have children in the future.
You people are the WORST abortion advocates in the world.
So what are your thoughts, GTers?
I'd like to also draw attention to Lawlover's comment here, because it is lost in the thread, and I think it is great (all your comments are great! Sorry to exalt one over others!):
To me it shows how successful the right wing anti-choice crowd has been at controlling the abortion conversation. They've convinced us that people have to feel bad about it, or that it must be hard, because they think it's wrong. A film made for women who are having or have had abortions, as a show of solidarity, is supposed to cater to those people who think the abortion should never have happened.
We need to step out from this shadow of shame that a it choices have thrust upon this issue and talk about it frankly. Yeah, sometimes people get pregnant in dumbass ways. Yeah, sometimes the decision is really easy. Deal with it.
It reminds me a little of the people who say, "I think abortion should be legal though I would never have one." Don't get me wrong, there is nothing wrong inherently with that sentiment. But I think that sentiment gets expressed a lot because conservatives are controlling the conversation, making it about morality, and people feel compelled to say it as if to justify their own stance. I've said it before, and now I'm kind of questioning why.

Larose man dies in Lafourche Parish two-car crash
A Larose man died in two-vehicle crash in Galliano Tuesday morning.
Police say the crash occurred just after 6 a.m.
Police say a vehicle driven by 61-year-old Gary Bourgeois of Westewgo was driving south on La. Hwy. 3235 approaching La. Hwy. 3162 in the right lane.
As Bourgeois approached the intersection, he began to slow down due to a red traffic signal at the intersection, but before he could come to a stop, the traffic signal turned green, and he began to proceed forward.
At the same time, police say a truck driven by 42-year-old Jason Guidry of Larose was driving south on La. Hwy. 3235 approaching La. Hwy. 3162 in the left lane.
Police say Guidry changed into the right lane and struck Bourgeois' vehicle in the back as it was crossing the intersection.
Upon impact, a large welding machine in the rear of Guidry's truck slid forward crushing the cab around him and trapping him. He was pronounced dead at the scene.
Bourgeois sustained minor injuries, police say.
Alcohol use is not suspected in the crash, and routine toxicology results are pending for Guidry.
Blood was taken from Bourgeois, and those test results are pending as well.
The crash remains under investigation.

John Adams
After contributing much love to many, John Hayes Adams, 91, left us to joyously reunite with his Lord and Savior and those who went before him. A native of Chicago, John graduated from Loyola Academy, served his country as a veteran of WW-II, and attended both Notre Dame and Northwestern universities. He had a successful career as a VP with Zenith Radio. John and his wife Sherle moved to Birmingham 14 years ago this month and quickly acclimated to the climate, the people, and Briarwood Presbyterian Church. He is predeceased by his parents, Otto and Mary Adams, his sister, Suzanne Schraffenberger, and Phyllis Adams, the mother of his children. John is survived by his wife, Sherle Kiss Adams and children Gail (Scott) Galloway of Lake Forest, Illinois, Jack Adams of Ft. Myers, Florida, Steve (Peggy) Adams of Birmingham, Alabama, Judy (Tom) Leatherman of Cleveland, Ohio, and stepson, Todd (Barbara) Lowe of Northport, AL as well as 10 grandchildren and 6 great-grandchildren. John loved words, their meaning, and incredibly challenging crossword puzzles. But he loved his family most of all. There will be a celebration of his life in the month of his birth, February 15th, at Briarwood Presbyterian Church, with a burial of his remains at a later date in Chicago. In lieu of flowers, donations can be given to: Birmingham Theological Seminary, 2200 Briarwood Lane, Birmingham, AL, 35243 or The Mustard Seed, 202 Westminster, Lake Forest, IL, 60045.

Last Friday I participated in a genuine gastronomic experience that one can only find in Spain. I was invited to the annual celebration of the "Cofradia del Capon de Villalba" or in English, "The Brotherhood of the Capon of Villalba.¨ I was there because of my present work as an advisor to a winery in Portugal and my knowledge of wines.Â
This was a feast worthy of the ancient Roman emperors. We began at 2 pm and ended at just short of 9 pm! There were eight dishes served with complementary wines before the main course, the capon. A small scallop popular with "Gallegos," the people of Northwest Spain, from whence came General Franco, was perhaps the most exotic starter. But all were truly gastronomic delights.Â
The head of the "Cofradia," a cherubic Spaniard in his late 70´s broke into the festivities at one point to extol the virtues of the "Capon de Villalba."  It seems that after turning him into a capon, which our host explained in disturbing detail, the bird is placed in a cage where he is forced fed croquettes, whose recipes are closely guarded secrets of each producer, to fatten the bird.  To maintain a perfect bird he is sacrificed by inserting a needle into his brain via the roof of his mouth. The process is geared to bringing the capon to market at Christmas when it, rather than a turkey or goose, is a highly prized main dish.Â
Our host explained that capons are produced throughout Spain but those of Villalba, a town in "Galicia," the Northwest part of the country, are reknowned as being the best. He founded the "Cofradia"s to promote the bird both in Spain and abroad. It is also designed to promote all of Villalba´s cuisine and wines.
Following the eight courses we were treated to the entry of the capon, the focal point of the meal. What a sight! It was at least three times the size of any capon I have ever seen, and capon was a favorite dish of my mother, at least the size of a large tom turkey. In spite of its giant proportions the meat of the bird was truly succulent and fully up to its advance billing. It was served with three sauces, one of forest berries, one of apple and one made with the juice of the bird.Â
While we were treated to outstanding wines with each course, including the capon, dessert was followed by generous pourings of the host´s favorite single malt Scotch. By then it was 8:30 pm and after many goodbyes and a tad of Scotch more we left at 9 pm.
A bacchanal of lavish proportions that I have only encountered in Spain.  This wine business is really fun.

Chapter Ten
With a scream the vampire launched itself across the graveyard, its three compatriots lurking in the shadows of the crypts that dotted the cemetery. The vampires intended victim, a mocha skinned teenage girl who held a machete in one hand and a wooden stake in the other turned and faced her attacker.
Kendra the Slayer, the latest in a long line of young girls called to defend humanity against the vampires and demons that roamed the world waited till the vampire was in mid-air and then, at the last possible moment, she neatly side stepped out of the way
"OOOF!!" The vampire gasped as it landed on the marble tombstone that Kendra had been standing in front of. As it tried to draw unneeded air into its lungs the last thing that the demon felt was the impact of the Slayer's razor sharp machete on the back of its neck that sliced off its head before the demon infested corpse turned to dust.
For a split second the remaining vampires stood there stunned. Finally one of them pointed at the Slayer. "Get her!!" he shouted and the vampires charged.
Kendra faced the oncoming vampires without flinch. She raised her right arm and brought it down with a blur.
Bzzzzz THUNK!!
The rightmost vampire fell twitching to the ground, Kendra's machete embedded in its forehead.
Even before the machete had reached its target Kendra was moving. She launched herself into a forward roll to close the distance between her and the vampires. Coming out of the roll on her knees in front of the vampire who had yelled Kendra lashed out with a single punch.
The vampire's eye's bulged out and his mouth opened in a silent scream as the punch, powered by the strength of the Slayer crushed his testicles and shattered his pelvis. In almost slow motion the vampire sank to his knees, any thoughts apart from the searing pain in his genitals gone from his mind.
Kendra rose to her feet with pantherish grace and drove 'Mr Pointy', her favourite stake, into the vampire's back, piercing the vampire's unbeating heart. Ignoring the cloud of dust she advanced to the fourth and last vampire, determined to finish this as quickly as possible.
Just as she closed in on the vampire the clouds that obscured the moon in the sky cleared, allowing Kendra to see the vampire for the first time. The vampire was tall and well-built with a carefully tended head of dark hair and despite herself Kendra let her arm holding 'Mr Pointy' drop.
The vampire, not knowing why the Slayer had stopped and not caring immediately took advantage and lashed out with a backhand blow that knocked Kendra to the ground.
"Looks like I get to taste Slayer blood tonight!" The vampire crowed with a thick European accent as he slipped into 'Game Face' and closed on Kendra while she struggled to her feet.
Suddenly another voice echoed through the graveyard.
"Stay down child!"
Kendra, who had known and obeyed that voice almost all her life stayed on the ground.
The sound of a shotgun firing both barrels rent the night air and the vampire was hurled back three feet as it caught the buckshot directly in the chest.
Samuel Zabuto, respected local scholar and Watcher to Slayer Kendra stepped out from behind the crypt, a smoking Carriage Gun in his hand.
"Are you alright child?" He asked as he quickly reloaded.
"I'm fine sir." Kendra answered as she got to her feet.
"Then dispose of the beasts that are left." Zabuto ordered, quickly scanning the surroundings to make sure there were no more vampires. "We must leave quickly. The local Constabulary may not investigate reports of a brawl but they will come for gunfire."
Kendra nodded and crossed to where the vampire with her machete embedded in its skull still lay twitching. Placing a foot on its chest she grasped machete's handle and wrenched it out before decapitating it. Returning to the vampire that Mr Zabuto had shot she noticed that there was smoke coming from the gaping wound. That told her that her Watcher loaded his shells with not only lead shot but wood and stone beads from a blessed Rosary.
Standing over the mewling vampire she looked at its face and paused. For the life of her she couldn't understand why she had frozen when she first saw its face. Only that when she was able to clearly see its features something about it made her stay her hand and if it hadn't been for her Watcher she may well have died this night.
She jumped when she heard the voice of her Watcher.
"Finish your duty!" Zabuto ordered, knowing that they had dallied here too long already.
Nodding Kendra readied her stake and plunged it into the vampire's chest, turning it to dust. With the demon vanquished she quickly checked the surrounding darkness to ensure that there were no witnesses to the fight. Despite what she had seen during her visit to the Hellmouth and her sister Slayer Kendra preferred to work in secret. Satisfied that nothing living or undead was nearby she returned to Mr Zabuto.
Minutes later the pair had left the graveyard and were driving home in Mr Zabuto's old but immaculately maintained Range Rover. Finally they arrived at the small house they called home.
Getting out of the vehicle Sam turned to his charge. "Go clean yourself up child." He said brusquely but not unkindly as he reached into the back seat for the bag that contained his own equipment. "And report to my study in an hour."
Kendra nodded and trotted inside. Sam knew that before she would even think of taking a shower to wash away the dust and muck of fighting she would first check and clean her weapons, ensuring they would be ready for the next time she went on patrol.
Entering his study Sam swiftly stripped and cleaned his shotgun before sitting at his desk to begin his report on the night's patrol.
Exactly one hour later there was a diffident knock on his door.
"Come in Kendra." He said, laying down his pen.
The door opened to reveal Kendra dressed in a loose pair of cotton pants and shirt. She silently crossed the room to stand before the desk, hands crossed demurely in front of her.
"So Kendra, what happened with that last vampire tonight?" He asked.
Kendra took a deep breath before answering. "I don know what happened sir." She said. "I was ready to deal wid de vampire. I knew dat de speed which I took de udders would have it unbalanced but when I saw its face…" She trailed off.
"Go on." Sam said.
"It's just dat when I saw its face, something was telling me to wait, dat the vampire could be trusted." She didn't say anything else, just lowered her head as she thought about her momentary indecision had allowed the vampire to gain the upper hand.
Sam studied his charge. "Strange I don't think anything like that has happened before."
Kendra shook her head. "No sir, never!" She said emphatically.
Sam nodded. "I'm sure it was nothing more than a temporary lapse." He said. "You have been working very hard these last few months." Sam paused for a moment before continuing to speak. "To be on the safe side however we'll conduct a cleansing ritual in the morning." He then gave Kendra a rare smile. "For now get some rest child."
Kendra returned her Watcher's smile with a wider one of her own. "Thank you sir." She said before leaving the study to retire to her own room.
Alone in his study Sam leant back in his chair. While he had told Kendra that there was nothing to worry about he was concerned. From what Kendra had described it sounded like the vampire had been able to enthral her. But he knew that no vampire, no matter how powerful and skilled they were could take control of someone's mind so quickly.
He suspected that because of her mission to Sunnydale she had inadvertently absorbed a fragment of the dark energies that were cast out by the Hellmouth which made her more susceptible to the malign influences of vampires. He realised that he shouldn't have waited so long to ensure that nothing was wrong with his charge. Especially since he knew of Kendra's parentage.
What made Kendra unique in the history of the Slayer line was the fact that her mother was a Potential who had never been called and her father was the son of a potential as well.
While most Potentials were never called as a Slayer it was extremely rare for the daughters of those uncalled Potentials to be Potentials themselves. The gift or curse, depending on your point of view, that would force a girl to fight vampires and demons for a short time until their inevitable death tended to skip generations.
There was a very good reason why Sam knew so much about Kendra's parentage. His father, Raymond Zabuto, had been the Watcher to a potential named Madeline, Kendra's mother and all his life Sam had thought of Madeline as his little sister.
Without thinking of it he opened a drawer in his desk and removed several framed photos, photos he made sure that Kendra would never see. The first was a wedding photo, showing Madeline Zabuto with her new husband Francis Young and Sam standing as Francis's best man. The second was of a glowing Madeline with two month old Kendra in her arms. The third and final picture was a family photo with a four year old Kendra sitting on her father's lap and shyly smiling at the camera.
Sam well remembered the terrible day when he found out that while Kendra's parents were on their way back from a Council mission in Scotland, their car had hit a patch of ice and gone off the road, killing both and leaving their five year old daughter a Potential and an orphan.
It had taken every favour that he was owed to have Kendra assigned to him as his Potential but eventually the Council had relented and sent him his niece. However they had warned him that if she found out that he was her uncle, well, things would go badly with mentions of spells being cast on Kendra that would remove the few memories that she had of her parents.
So to protect his niece and the few memories she had of her parents Sam adopted a firm, hands off approach when dealing with her when all he really wanted to do was give her a hug and tell her that he was her uncle and he loved her.
With a sigh and a shake of his head he put the photos away. Now was not the time to allow himself to get lost in the past. Perhaps one day soon he could tell Kendra about her family but not today. Instead he began the preparations for the cleansing ritual that he would perform in the morning.
As he worked another thought came to him. Slayer Summers had been living on the Hellmouth for nearly two years now. Perhaps what had affected Kendra was also affecting Summers? It was something to consider and who knew what the long term effects of living on an active Hellmouth were on a Slayer?
With preparations complete and several hours till dawn Sam sat back at his desk and picked up his pen. A letter to Dr Giles in Sunnydale may be good idea, just to inform his fellow Watcher of his concerns. Pulling a sheet of paper to him he began to write.
Chase family Estate, Sunnydale
Cordelia Chase was not in the best of moods as she entered her bathroom. There were many reasons for her current mood. The first was that during the last few days she had noticed that the group of female students that she usually hung around with were not as quick to follow her directions as the normally were. Harmony Kendall in particular had even offered several snide remarks about her spending time with 'The Losers' in the library.
Despite herself Cordy growled at the thought of even one of her 'Cordettes' dissing her. Very soon she would have to show her followers that while a certain level of bitchiness was required to be a Cordette there was a very good reason why she was known as 'The Queen Bitch of Sunnydale High!' and Harmony, Aura and the rest of them should best remember that!
But that wasn't the only problem in her life. Living in Sunnydale, home of the Hellmouth, meant that hardly a week went by without some demon, vampire or something equally 'icky' making an appearance. In this case something called a Beozar demon and thanks to Mr Whitmore and his 'Egg Baby' assignment half the class had ended up with one of the demon's offspring attached to their necks.
The demon had been defeated thanks to Buffy Summers throwing a drum of kerosene and a road flare into the lair underneath the school's basement. But not before Cordy had been tied up and thrown in a closet in the biology lab alongside Willow Rosenberg by Xander Harris.
Which brought her back to the real reason she was so annoyed. Xander Harris.
With one bare foot she checked the temperature of the water in her bath. Almost scalding. Perfect.
Dropping her robe she took a moment to admire her naked body in the floor to ceiling mirror. She blew a kiss at her reflection. She was sexy and she knew it.
Turning away from the mirror she eased herself into her bath, sighing with pleasure as the hot water soaked away the aches and pains her thoughts went back to Xander.
The Dweeb had to pay for forcing her into that closet but how? She considered limiting the make-out sessions they shared in the stacks at the back of the library or in the Janitor's closet or the gym when they finished the training sessions and Miss Calender had left.
"No that wouldn't do." She thought, shaking her head. She enjoyed them too much herself. Just the thought of grabbing Xander and dragging him into an empty classroom had her feeling all tingly inside.
She raised one leg out of the water and absently admired the toned, tanned limb. Then an idea came to her and she started to smirk.
Getting out of the bath she wrapped a towel around her and went into her bedroom, going straight to the large, walk-in closet that covered one wall. Ignoring the designer clothes and shoes she hunted around for a moment till she found what she was looking for.
"Perfect!" She grinned as she held up her prize. "Xander won't know what to do when he sees this!" The grin then turned to a truly evil smirk when she realised how to make it even better.
Still with the towel wrapped around her Cordy crossed to her bedroom desk and retrieved her phone book. Quickly searching she found the number she was looking for and started dialling. Impatiently she waited as the phone on the other end of the line rang until it was picked up.
"Miss Calender? It's Cordelia Chase. I wonder if you could do me a favour?"
In the basement of his home Xander looked up from the collection of wires, cables, the power cell he had salvaged from the remains of 'Robot Ted' and the industrial laser he had acquired will practicing his infiltration skills at the CDX facility.
"Why do I get the feeling that I should find myself a hole and hide in it for the month?" He thought to himself.
Shrugging he continued working on what he hoped would be another weapon to use against vampires, blissfully unaware of what Cordelia Chase had in store for him.
And on the other side of town a pale skinned, dark haired vampire who was dancing to music only she could hear suddenly stopped.
"Oh those cheeky little minx's!" Drusilla smirked before snatching up a china faced doll and swirling it around as if it was her dance partner. "They'll have such fun teasing him Miss Edith! Yes they will! But what will he do in return?" Drusilla giggled as the stars showed her what was in store for Alexander Harris.

Julio Cesar Chavez Sr. loves the way Marcos 'Chino' Maidana fights, and these kind of fights get his blood pumping. "I like watching Maidana fight, he's going to bring much pressure on Mayweather, you can't give him time to think about your next move. Mayweather is the best right now and this fight will make my blood get hot, because it will be great action." Chavez would know because he was in the same position when he fought Roger Mayweather until the bell rang and he exploded with the type of fire that could burn down a village. He made Mayweather seems like a tunup fighter.
The shock was so great a rematch was made in which Mayweather did better but couldn't survive the power and force that Chavez Sr. brought to him that night. "Going into that fight, all the so-called experts said I would be embarrassed and didn't belong in the same ring as Mayweather, the same things that they are saying about Maidana, so I know he has a chance, now what is he going to do, is the question."
