Marineland issued a one-page summary reacting to what it says were the findings in an OSPCA report.
The OSPCA's four-month investigation into allegations of animal abuse and neglect at the Niagara Falls, Ont., park resulted after former employees and animal activists raised the issue in the media.
Alison Cross, OSPCA's senior manager of communications, said her organization hadn't released anything publicly as of Friday.
"We have not made any public comments because the investigation is still ongoing," she said.
But Marineland's statement said the OSPCA issued a number of orders to Marineland - none requiring immediate action.
Those orders included examining the eyes of the park's seals and the marks on Baker, one of its sea lions.
Marineland said the marks on the 28-year-old sea lion are "very old" and that one is an identification tattoo placed on him in the US prior to its arrival at the park.
Following the OSPCA investigation, Marineland said it will be expanding its existing deer and elk shelters to account for the recent increase in the size of the herds.
The clean bill of health from the OSPCA comes during the same week Marineland said it has agreed to join a working group with the Canadian Association of Zoos and Aquariums and Ontario's Ministry of the Environment to determine the fate of the remains of animals that have died.

Ok, what would you do? I visited 2 locally-owned nurseries in my area yesterday and found definite signs of hosta virus x on several hostas in each store. Visited a third family-owned nursery 90 miles away from me with THOUSANDS of hostas with absolutely NO signs of virus. They do buy from different suppliers.
The first 2 nurseries are smaller, but are owned by people who really really should know what this virus looks like, and really should know better than to sell virused plants. I took one plant up to the register in the first store and told 2 people working there that they need to contact their supplier and get rid of these plants. Tried to warn them in a friendly manner that the state would make them destroy all their hostas if they were inspected. Tried to tell them which hostas are more susceptible, and where to go online to see photos and get info. They acted like they didn't quite believe me, but said they would tell the owner. Plot thickens...I know the owner and really hate to be the bearer of bad news, but also am a little shocked that they kept these plants! At the second nursery, I didn't point them out. Last thing I want is this virus to spread further. I also know it's a small world and I try to maintain a good relationship with the nurseries I do business with. What would you do? Call the state? Call extension agent? Re-visit the nursery to emphasize what I know? Post their names? Forget it? |
Follow-Up Postings:
Ask an extension agent to stop by and check - they will take it from there. I found daylily rust in my own garden center once - I called the extension agent who came and took samples. They were cultured to be sure, and we had to throw out all infected plants, remove all our daylilies from display, cut them back, spray with fungicide, and grow them away from public display while we waited to see if any others were infected. My boss wasn't too happy, but we had to do what was right. |
Some extension agents are probably qualified, but the regulatory agency who can order those plants off sale would be your state dept. of agriculture. If you call them, they could send out an inspector who would then issue a stop sale order or seizure. Once the nursery owner has that piece of paper, they can go back to their supplier, and get their money back. Some nursery owners are proactive and would do this on their own, but may be so busy they haven't noticed the issue. Others may notice it and only see potential lost sales and leave them out there. In other words, you can't trust the owner to take care of it. The KS dept of ag. number to call is: 785-862-2180. I would also study the tags/pots of the guilty suppliers, and not buy any more of their plants. If you can identify the grower, you can report them too, or fire off a letter to them. |

Many thanks to you both. A few years ago we received a shipment of daylilies which obviously had rust, so we rejected the order. With hostas, I feel for these nurseries because they order roots or liners and don't see the virus right away, if ever before they sell. This is the busy time of year, and the hostas have just leafed out in the past 2 weeks. I did contact the plant pathologists who inspect and asked them if they had sent fliers around since it sounds like nurseries are "unaware" of the hosta virus. I think they will take it from here. The state did a great job publicizing pine wilt, gypsy moths, asian longhorned beetles and daylily rust, so maybe they can step up enforcement on hosta virus. |

Last week, it was announced that footwork king DJ Rashad had signed with Hyperdub for the release of his Rollin' EP, and a quick preview of the EP's four tracks is now available, and this thing sounds purely amazing. The title track features a fly R&B sample in the usual Rashad flavor, but things take a different turn quickly. Rashad's "Let it Go" features some Metalheadz-inspired jungle breaks, while the DJ Manny-collaboration "Drums Please" features drums on drums on drums. Rashad and DJ Spinn link up for "Broken Hearted," which takes us out with another one of those tracks that married the complex footwork drum work with a vintage R&B sample. Solid primer for people who love this sound, and are intrigued with how it will be moving into the future.
The Rollin' EP is dropping on vinyl and digital download on March 18.
A. DJ Rashad – Rollin
B. DJ Rashad – Let It Go
C. DJ Rashad & DJ Manny – Drums Please

Toss in Reggie Bush with healthy receivers, and you get Calvin Johnson maybe, probably being even better in 2013. No, really.
The Housekeeping
Notable additions: Reggie Bush, re-signed Joique Bell
Notable Draft picks: None with a fantasy impact outside of Ziggy Ansah in IDP leagues (though guard Larry Warford could start immediately)
The Marquee men (the elitest of the elite)
Calvin Johnson (ADP: 8.0): If you're taking a wide receiver in the first round (just say no) and you're ignoring the slow, plague death of running back scarcity, it has to be Johnson. There's just really not much to say here other than to remind you through numbers that he's really, really good (#analysis).
Surely you remember that he set the single-season record for receiving yards (1,964 yards) last year, coming just shy of truly shattering history with a 2,000-yard season. He did that with an average of 122.8 yards per game, six double-digit reception games, two 200-yard games, and three games when he averaged 20 yards per catch. Yep.
Because they lacked anything which resembled a running game, the Lions led the league in pass attempts. Matthew Stafford was asked to throw 740 times, which trumped Drew Brees' attempts (671) by a wide margin. Of those throws, 205 of them (27.7 percent) were intended for Johnson, making him the most targeted pass catcher in the league.
Because he's Calvin Johnson and he's the best, that target volume will remain exceedingly high, though with Ryan Broyles and Nate Burleson healthy (see below) and with the addition of Reggie Bush (also see below), it could decline enough that the impact on his production lands somewhere between noticeable and sort of significant. Johnson still had a highly effective season yardage-wise in 2011 with 1,681 yards, but that gap compared to last year was the result of receiving only 158 targets with Burleson healthy. At one point in 2012, the Lions' decay at wide receiver led to Kris Durham being Stafford's No. 2 option. Dire times indeed.
However, targets tell only a slice of this story, friend. Johnson still led all wide receivers in fantasy points (215) last year despite being the subject of the most absurd statistical anomaly since numbers were invented. He's only a year removed from scoring 16 times, a number that plummeted mostly because he was tackled at or inside the opposition's two yard-line five times this past season. Really sit and process that for a second.
At one point last season through Week 9, Johnson had 48 catches and only one touchdown. In 2011, he averaged a touchdown once every six catches. I'm no arithmetic major, but I think we can safely bet on that number correcting itself.
Matthew Stafford (ADP: 65.4): Back so long ago in those blissful early spring times of late May, you may recall that I acknowledged your deep-rooted Stafford concerns, while noting that those who fear Stafford are actually helping the rest of us. And look, they still are.
I get it. Stafford has a booming arm, but far too often he either doesn't set his feet or throws sidearm, and the result is the loudest and ugliest duck to grace this Earth. That's what led to his completion percentage dropping from 63.5 to 59.8, which in turn sucker punched his TD-to-interception ratio (41:16 in 2011, and just 20:17 in 2012). All that is troubling, but since there should be much more diversity in his targets now and Bush has arrived to open up areas underneath, both Stafford's scoring and interception rates should correct themselves and hover around 2011 levels.
That will lead to glorious value. Stafford's ADP is still sticking around the mid 60s, which takes away much of the sting associated with his Favre-ian ways. He's not in late-round quarterback territory, but if we're managing risk (and we are…always), currently Stafford stands up well in the same tier as Colin Kaepernick (no Michael Crabtree) and Robert Griffin III (no knee ligaments last January).
Reggie Bush (ADP: 22.5): In point-per-reception leagues, Bush will be a stud. Or at least he should be if we're to believe the words of a head coach, and really, what's this world coming to if we can't do that?
Shortly after Bush was signed to a four-year contract, Jim Schwartz said his reception total could top out at 80. Combine that with the Lions' experimentation with him during minicamp that was very Jamaal Charles-like as he lined up in the backfield, the slot, and in motion, and expecting a spike in his receiving numbers is a pretty easy thing to do.
What we'll likely see is a hybrid of the Miami Reggie Bush, and the New Orleans Reggie Bush. With the Saints, Bush started his career by recording back-to-back seasons with over 70 receptions (88 in 2006, and 73 in 2007). But then in Miami, he finally topped the 200-carry mark for the first time, a miraculous feat which took six seasons.
It's easy to see a world where Bush has 300 touches for the first time in his career, and about 70 of those coming through catching footballs.
The Middle Men (middle-to-late round options)
Ryan Broyles (ADP: 127.3): If Leshoure (below…again) defines the matchup play, then Broyles is the overlord of the sleeper WR3′s. Broyles has torn an ACL in back-to-back seasons, first during his senior year at Oklahoma, and then during his rookie year with the Lions after he was a second-round pick. Thankfully, he has the Adrian Peterson gene, and his body is one-eighth titanium. Just six months removed from his most recent surgery, Broyles was a full participant in the Lions' minicamp.
That should be illegal, but here we are. Now Broyles is being widely labelled as a breakout candidate, and those applying that label (*points two thumbs at self*) likely won't be wrong, assuming he doesn't break again.
Broyles is versatile, and able to excel both outside and from the slot. We obviously have a highly limited sample size to work with since he appeared in only eight games last year between recovering from one ACL tear, and then being wiped out by the next one. But consider that of his meager 22 receptions, five went for 20 yards or more, and over the two games immediately prior to his season-ending tear he recorded 161 receiving yards at a pace of 21.3 yards per grab.
Brandon Pettigrew (ADP: 155.0): Pretty much every time I write about tight ends and all things tight ends, I say something about streaming them all the time every time this year, and how that could be fun and profitable. As such, each tight end has value, especially late rounders who will be targeted often. Meet Brandon Pettigrew.
Due to the sheer girth of options around Stafford and most notably, Bush possibly siphoning off a lot of intermediate looks up the middle, Pettigrew's value has fallen dramatically. The ADP listed here is on the low end, and other handy forecasting services have him a little higher at about 136th overall.
That's good. So good, because with a late-round tight end, we care more about opportunity, and the chance for sporadic outbursts given the right matchup. Despite his down year in 2012 (567 receiving yards, a drop from 777 yards in 2011), Pettigrew was targeted over 100 times for the third straight year. Even if that falls to, say, around 80 with Bush being a target sucker, that will still lead to ample ball-catching for a TE who's deep in sleeper territory.
The Menial Peons (sleepers, flex plays, and matchup plays)
Mikel Leshoure (ADP: 117.6): Leshoure is under this here heading because although he'll receive his share of carries as the boom to Bush's flash, for fantasy purposes he'll define flex or matchup play. Primarily, he'll get short yardage and goal-line carries, and he'll have the opportunity to vulture touchdowns.
Say what you will about his lack of burst (and if you do that, you'll mostly say horrible, nasty things), but he's pretty good at smashing anything that gets in his way over a short distance, and crossing a white line. Despite averaging a woeful 3.7 yards per carry, Leshoure still scored nine times last year, five of which came during a particularly hot stretch between weeks 11 and 16.
Of course, touchdowns as a whole are rarely linear from year-to-year, and Leshoure could be set for a downward spike due to more than just Bush's presence. There's another troubling stat: six of his nine touchdowns came on runs of five yards or less. That's not notable at first until we recall the absurd frequent goal-line stuffing Calvin Johnson encountered, which led to Leshoure's opportunities. It's highly unlikely that both of those things are repeated in 2013.
Nate Burleson (ADP: undrafted): Burleson's value to all involved lies in what he can do for Stafford by being someone who isn't named Calvin Johnson, and being able to catch balls thrown in his direction. Like Broyles, he was a surprise full participant in OTAs after breaking his leg last year, and barring a setback he'll also be a full participant when games matter.
His upside, though, is just…meh. Two years ago as the guy who would presumably be treated with plenty of neglect by defenses more concerned with Johnson, Burleson didn't have a 100-yard game, and he averaged only 47.3 yards each week with his average vertical ability. If they're both healthy and fully functioning, Burleson should be third in line for targets behind Johnson and Broyles.
The Mop-Up Men (deeeep sleepers and handcuffs)
Joique Bell (ADP: undrafted): Since Leshoure is useful only when there's a goal-line a few yards away, Bell should be watched as both a Bush handcuff in deep leagues, and possibly a PPR sleeper.
In a time share with Leshoure for much of the season last year, Bell averaged five yards per carry on 82 carries, but his 485 yards on 52 catches is much more appealing for you PPR aficionados. In an offense that will give plenty of touches to a lot of different players (Schwartz's words, not mine), Bell rising to become a quality PPR flex play is a very real possibility if Leshoure's plodding and stumbling resumes.

Trouble Getting Sponsorships for the No. 1 Female Golfer?
In another thought provolking post from Bulle Rock, Chris Baldwin suggests that in our current socio-political environment, where immigration has become an ultra-sensitive issue, Ochoa may suffer from being the wrong nationality, otherwise known as... "Dominating While Mexican".

Hmmm, I didn't even know she was the world number 1. Probably explains why she is having trouble getting sponsorship. Most manufactures will want to have somebody on the roster who generates publicity, even if she is number 1 if she isn't number 1 in the hearts of fans and the media her value for sponsorship will be low.
Nolan MAs I have mentioned before, most businesses do not know how to get an ROI out of sponsoring anyone in golf...Lorena is not the only one. Steve Elkington does not have any endorsements and is making a spectacle of it with have a bag made with huge blank spaces on the sides. Nolen is correct; most of the non-golfer marketing heads will only approve sponsorship to someone who produces the numbers they need to turn a profit on the money to pay these players to get their name out there. I don't see it as been a political situation. I see it as golf being misunderstood in the "C" suites of corporate America...I am working hard to change that...give me a little time...I am making some headway.

How many "non-golfer marketing heads" are there? I wouldn't think there would be too many of those animals out there.

Blessed Anne Catherine Emmerich (German: Anna Katharina Emmerick; 8 September 1774 – 9 February 1824) was a Roman Catholic Augustinian Canoness Regular of Windesheim, mystic, Marian visionary, ecstatic and stigmatist.[1]

She was born in Flamschen, a farming community at Coesfeld, in the Diocese of Münster, Westphalia, Germany, and died at age 49 in Dülmen, where she had been a nun, and later became bedridden. Emmerich is notable for her visions on the life and Passion of Jesus Christ, reputed to be revealed to her by the Blessed Virgin Mary under Religious ecstasy.[2]
During her bedridden years, a number of well-known figures were inspired to visit her.[1] The poet Clemens Brentano interviewed her at length and wrote two books based on his notes of her visions.[3] The authenticity of Brentano's writings has been questioned and critics have characterized the books as "conscious elaborations by a poet" and a "well-intentioned fraud" by Brentano.[3][4][5]
Emmerich was beatified on October 3, 2004 by Pope John Paul II.[1] However, the Vatican focused on her own personal piety rather than the religious writings associated to her by Clemens Betrano. Emmerich has a widespread devotion among Traditionalist Catholics.
She was born as Anna Katharina into a family of poor farmers, and had nine brothers and sisters. From an early age, she had to help with the house and farm work. Her schooling was rather brief, but all those who knew her noticed that she felt drawn to prayer from an early age.[1] At twelve she started to work at a large farm in the vicinity for three years, and later learned to become a seamstress and worked as such for several years.[6]
She applied for admission to various convents, but was rejected because she could not afford a dowry to bring with her. Eventually, the Poor Clares in Münster agreed to accept her provided she would learn to play the organ. She went to the organist Söntgen in Coesfeld to study music and learn to play the organ there, but never got around to it because the poverty in the Söntgen family prompted her to just work there to help them, and she sacrificed her small savings for that.[1][6] Later, one of the Söntgen daughters entered the convent with her.[1]
In 1802, at the age of 28, Anne Catherine and her friend Klara Söntgen finally managed to join the Augustinian nuns at the convent of Agnetenberg in Dülmen. The following year Anne Catherine took her religious vows.[1][6] In the convent, she became known for her strict observance of the order's rule but from the beginning to 1811 she was often quite ill and had to endure great pain.[1] At times, her zeal and strict adherence to rules disturbed some of the more tepid sisters, who were puzzled by her weak health, and religious ecstasies.[1][6]
When Jérôme Bonaparte, King of Westphalia suppressed the convent in 1812 she found refuge in a widow's house. There, the sick and poor came to her for help, and according to contemporaries she supernaturally knew what their diseases were, and prescribed cures.

In 1813 she was confined to bed, and stigmata were reported on her body. Her life and the claims regarding her miraculous signs were examined by an episcopal commission. The vicar-general, the Overberg, and three physicians conducted the investigation. They were reportedly convinced of her sanctity and the genuineness of the stigmata.
At the end of 1818 Emmerich stated that God granted her prayer to be relieved of the stigmata, and the wounds in her hands and feet closed, but the others remained, and on Good Friday all were reopened.
In 1819 Emmerich was investigated again, this time by secular authorities. She was forcibly removed to a large room in another house and kept under strict surveillance day and night for three weeks, away from all her friends except her confessor.
Anne Catherine Emmerich said that as a child she had visions, in which she talked with Jesus, had seen the souls in Purgatory, for whom she prayed, and also the core of Holy Trinity in the form of three concentric interpenetrating full spheres - the biggest but less lit sphere represented the Father core, the medium sphere the Son core, and the smallest and most lit sphere the Holy Spirit core. Each sphere of omnipresent God is extended toward infinity beyond God's core placed in Heaven.
Based on Anne Catherine's growing reputation, during her life a number of figures who were influential in the renewal movement of the Church early in the 19th century came to visit her, among them Clemens von Vischering, the Archbishop of Cologne; Johann Michael Sailer, the Bishop of Ratisbon, Bernhard Overberg and authors Luise Hensel and Friedrich Stolberg.[1] Clemens vou Vischering, who was the vicar‑general at that time, called Emmerich "a special friend of God" in a letter he wrote to Stolberg.[1]
At the time of her second examination in 1819, the famous poet Clemens Brentano was induced to visit her. According to Brentano, she immediately recognized him, and he claimed she told him he had been pointed out to her as the man who was to enable her to fulfill God's command, namely, to write down for the good of innumerable souls the revelations made to her. Brentano became one of Emmerich's many supporters at the time, believing her to be a "chosen Bride of Christ". Suzanne Stahl claims that Brentano's own personal complexes were a factor in substituting Emmerich as a maternal figure in his own life.[3]
From 1819 until her death in 1824 Brentano took notes of the conversations he had about her visions, filling many notebooks with notes about scenes from the New Testament and the life of the Virgin Mary. Given that Emmerich only spoke the Westphalian dialect, Brentano could not transcribe her words directly, and often could not even take notes in her presence.[7] Brentano would quickly write a set of notes based on what he remembered of the conversations he had with Emmerich in standard German when he returned to his own apartment.[7] Brentano edited the notes later, years after the death of Emmerich.[7]
About ten years after Emmerich's recounting of her visions, Brentano completed editing his records for publication.[7] In 1833 he published his first volume, The Dolorous Passion of Our Lord Jesus Christ according to the Meditations of Anne Catherine Emmerich. Brentano then prepared The Life of the Blessed Virgin Mary From the Visions of Anna Catherine Emmerich for publication, but he died in 1842. The book was published posthumously in 1852 in Munich.
Catholic priest Father Karl Schmoger edited Brentano's manuscripts and from 1858 to 1880 published the three volumes of The Life of Our Lord. In 1881 a large illustrated edition followed, Schmoger also penned a biography of Anne Catherine Emmerich in two volumes, which has been republished in English language editions.
The Vatican does not endorse the authenticity of the books written by Brentano.[8][9] However, it views their general message as "an outstanding proclamation of the gospel in service to salvation".[10] Other critics have been less sympathetic and have characterized the books Brentano produced from his notes as "conscious elaborations of an overwrought romantic poet".[3]
Brentano's writings on Emmerich says she believed that Noah's son Ham was the progenitor of "the black, idolatrous, stupid nations" of the world. The "Dolorous Passion" also reveals a "clear anti-semitic strain throughout",[11] with Brentano writing that Emmerich believed that, "Jews ... strangled Christian children and used their blood for all sorts of suspicious and diabolical practices"[12]
In 1892 when the case for Anne Catherine's beatification was submitted to the Vatican, a number of experts in Germany began to compare and analyze Brentano's original notes from his personal library with the books he had written.[4] The analysis of Brentano's personal library, after his death by experts in Germany revealed various apocryphal biblical sources, maps and travel guides among his papers which could have been used to enhance the narrations by Emmerich.[4]
In 1923, in his theological thesis, German priest Winfried Hümpfner, who had compared Brentano's original notes to the published books, wrote that Clemens Brentano had fabricated much of the material he had attributed to Emmerich.[5][13]
By 1928 the experts had come to the conclusion that only a small portion of Brentano's books could be safely attributed to Emmerich.[4][5]
At the time of the beatification of Catherine Anne in 2004, the Vatican position on the authenticity of the books produced by Brentano was stated by Father Peter Gumpel, who was involved in the study of the issues for the Congregation for the Causes of the Saints: "It is absolutely not certain that she ever wrote this. There is a serious problem of authenticity".[5][8][9] According to Gumpel, the writings attributed to Emmerich were "absolutely discarded" by the Vatican as part of her beatification process.[4]
Anne Catherine began to grow ever weaker during the summer of 1823. She died on 9 February 1824 in Dülmen and was buried in the graveyard outside the town, with a large number of people attending her funeral.[1] Her grave was reopened twice in the weeks following the funeral, due to a rumor that her body had been stolen, but the coffin and the body were found to be intact.[1][6] In February 1975, Emmerich's remains were moved to the Holy Cross Church in Dülmen, where they rest today.
Neither Brentano nor Emmerich had ever been to Ephesus, and indeed the city had not yet been excavated; but visions contained in The Life of The Blessed Virgin Mary were used during the discovery of the House of the Virgin Mary, the Blessed Virgin's supposed home before her Assumption, located on a hill near Ephesus, as described in the book Mary's House.[14]
In 1881, a French priest, the Abbé Julien Gouyet used Emmerich's book to search for the house in Ephesus and found it based on the descriptions. He was not taken seriously at first, but sister Marie de Mandat-Grancey persisted until two other priests followed the same path and confirmed the finding.[15][16]
The Holy See has taken no official position on the authenticity of the location yet, but in 1896 Pope Leo XIII visited it and in 1951 Pope Pius XII initially declared the house a Holy Place. Pope John XXIII later made the declaration permanent. Pope Paul VI in 1967, Pope John Paul II in 1979 and Pope Benedict XVI in 2006 visited the house and treated it as a shrine.[17]
" | Her example opened the hearts of poor and rich alike, of simple and cultured persons, whom she instructed in loving dedication to Jesus Christ. | " |
The process of Anne Catherine's beatification was started in 1892 by the Bishop of Münster. However, in 1928 the Vatican suspended the process when it was suspected that Clemens Brentano had fabricated some of the material that appeared in the books he wrote, and had attributed to Ann Catherine.[18]
In 1973 the Congregation for the Causes of the Saints allowed the case for her beatification to be re-opened, provided it only focused on the issue of her life, without any reference to the possibly doctored material produced by Clemens Brentano.[18]
In July 2003 the Congregation for the Causes of the Saints promulgated a decree of a miracle attributed to her, and that paved the way for her beatification.[18][19]
On 3 October 2004 Anne Catherine Emmerich was beatified by Pope John Paul II.[20] However, the books produced by Brentano were set aside, and her cause adjudicated solely on the basis of her own personal sanctity and virtue.[5] Father Peter Gumpel who was involved in the analysis of the matter at the Vatican told Catholic News Service: "Since it was impossible to distinguish what derives from Sister Emmerich and what is embroidery or additions, we could not take these writings as a criteria. Therefore, they were simply discarded completely from all the work for the cause".[8][9]
In 2003 actor Mel Gibson, a traditionalist Catholic, brought Anne Catherine Emmerich's vision to prominence as he used her book The Dolorous Passion as a key source for his movie The Passion of the Christ.[7][21][22] Gibson stated that Scripture and "accepted visions" were the only sources he drew on, and a careful reading of Emmerich's book shows the film's high level of dependence on it.[7][21] In his review of the movie in the Catholic publication America, Jesuit priest John O' Malley used the terms "devout fiction" and "well-intentioned fraud" to refer to the writings of Clemens Brentano.[4][5]
In 2007 German director Dominik Graf made the movie The Pledge as a dramatization of the encounters between Anne Catherine (portrayed by actress Tanja Schleiff) and Clemens Brentano, based on a novel by Kai Meyer.[23][24]

The scandal surrounding the recently purged Chinese Communist Party official Bo Xilai has all the elements of Shakespearean drama: the precipitous fall of a powerful man, a mysterious murder that involves the man's glamorous wife, and dark secrets that come to light as the plot unfolds.
The scandal is the most serious to hit China in years, and it threatens to cause a fissure within the Communist Party. It has also cast the public glare on the wealth of Party officials. In the past, it would have been nearly impossible to document allegations that Bo Xilai and his wife, Gu Kailai, a high-powered lawyer, used their political connections to enrich themselves.
But this is the new era of investigative reporting. Governments and companies are publishing increasing amounts of information online—yes, even in China. And the ability to find and mine that information gives journalists a competitive edge over their rivals.
In two weeks of intense reporting in February, the feisty, Hong Kong-based, Chinese-language Next Magazine uncovered previously unknown business dealings by Bo, his wife, and their other family members.
In subsequent weeks, reporters at The Wall Street Journal, The New York Times, and Bloomberg would be on that trail, too, trolling databases around the world to piece together information about the couple, information that in the pre-digital days would have been difficult to find.
The trail was obscured by the fact that the Bo family members used multiple names and aliases. But like many members of the Communist Party elite, they did business in Hong Kong and the West, making it easier for journalists to trace their wealth.
In the past six weeks, reporters have dug into corporate registries, stock exchange filings, and property records databases in jurisdictions around the world. Their digging has confirmed that in the Communist Party, wealth and political power are not only intertwined; both are kept well within the party members' families.
Bo and his wife had impeccable pedigrees: Their fathers were heroes of the 1949 revolution and were high up in the communist hierarchy, which meant that their offspring were considered Red Nobility or princelings. Despite allegations of corruption and abuse of power, they seemed untouchable.
But on February 6, Bo's lieutenant, Wang Lijun, fled to the US consulate in Chengdu, supposedly with evidence of corruption and murder involving Bo and his wife, who has since been implicated in the murder of Neil Heywood, a UK businessman. The incident created an international furor and, on March 15, Bo was dismissed from office, his downfall exposing the rifts within the party.
"After the US government confirmed the Wang Lijun incident on February 8, we smelled that something was going to happen to Bo Xilai," says Vivian Kwok, deputy editor in chief of Next Magazine, "and so we started research on his family's business connections." Next is owned by Jimmy Lai, a maverick Hong Kong businessman who is persona non grata in China, and the magazine didn't have deep sources in the mainland. So it had to rely on what was in the public record.
The wealth trail
Where to start? It helped that a Chinese journalist, Jiang Weiping, had previously published a biography of Bo, which said that that Gu Kailai's law firm and Gu herself made money by cutting deals for mainland Chinese companies that were doing business in Dalian, a major city and seaport in the northeastern province of Liaoning. Bo was once mayor of Dalian and governor of Liaoning. Jiang himself was a Dalian reporter and was sent to prison for his exposés, including stories on how Bo had covered up evidence of political corruption.
Now living in exile in Toronto, Jiang told Simon Yiu, a 24-year-old reporter for Next, that Gu's firm acted as a broker for some 200 mainland Chinese companies. But he didn't have documentary proof. Gu's law firm—called Ang Dao—has offices in Beijing, Zhengzhou, and Dalian. To confirm Jiang's lead, Simon Yiu searched the websites of the courts and lawyers' associations in those cities. These showed when law firms operating in these jurisdictions were established and also listed their lawyers.
Yiu found five lawyers associated with Gu's firm, so he searched their names on Google and Baidu, the Chinese search engine (most Chinese websites are searchable only through Baidu). He found a number of publicly listed companies that were connected to those lawyers. So he combed through the companies' websites and downloaded the companies' annual reports from the Shenzhen and the Shanghai stock exchanges, where they were listed.

Dale District incumbents Jim Holland and David Wyman are returned to another term for Chesterfield's Board Of Supervisors and School Board respectively. Although the players and community challenges remain the same, don't expect business as usual coming out of the County Administration Building on Courthouse Road.
"As you campaign and get out into the public you get a great deal of feedback," pointed out Wyman. "As an incumbent you get a sense of what you've done. There were things that were brought to my attention that frankly I needed to work on and there were some who told me how pleased they were with what I was doing."
Holland admitted to similar experiences in his listening campaign throughout his district. "I felt we ran a positive campaign that was focused on the issues most important to all the citizens of the Dale District. It was a tremendous honor to be re-elected by your fellow citizens. One thing I learned from the election campaign was that you never take anyone or any vote for granted," added Holland.
Holland's opponent in the race for the Board of Supervisors Cliff Bickford echoed the theme of addressing challenges and moving forward. "Difficult challenges lie ahead over the next 12 to 18 months regarding revenue, expenses and, of course, taxes. My hope is that the Dale District receives clear and responsible guidance from its leadership," commented Bickford. "Economic development along with revitalization will be the two most important issues I will pursue with the county as a private citizen," added Bickford.
Michael Jackson and Wyman split in the number of precincts carried. Were it not for the margin of victory in a couple of precincts, the outcome might have been different.
"That's tough to swallow because I know so much more now than when I started this race and I truly feel with experience I now have I could have easily picked up the votes needed per precinct," stated Jackson. When asked what he felt was some of the most important items for Chesterfield and specifically the Dale District in the near future, Jackson replied, "Open and transparent governance of our school system."
Jackson also pointed out the need to getting a handle on the upcoming budget process, redistricting, graduation rates, procurement processes, hiring practices and the equitable distribution of resources across the county.
Returning school board member Wyman summed up his take on what he heard from his constituents during the race as being what needs to be front and center. "You have a large segment that cares deeply about cost and the need to run our schools in an efficient manner. The other segment cares just as deeply about how their kids are being served in the schools. And therein is the rub," said Wyman. "The school board will be having discussions about the future of Chesterfield Schools and how we achieve that great balancing act of delivering a top quality education and doing it all at a reasonable cost."
Holland also heard what was important to those he spoke with on the campaign trail. "The major issues to the citizens of the Dale District remain economic development, creating jobs, improving infrastructure, revitalization of areas that need it most and improving education."

Despite taxpayer checks, investigation reveals Section 8 landlords foreclosing on homes
KANSAS CITY, Mo. - Millions of tax dollars are paid to Kansas City area landlords every year through the housing program known as Section 8. It is intended to give low-income families an affordable place to live, but what happens when landlords foreclose on those homes?
A 41 Action News investigation is asking if taxpayers should be required to keep writing rent checks to landlords who are defaulting on their mortgages.
Tenants shocked when foreclosure notice arrives
As a single mother of four kids, Mayjia Johnson has her hands full. The last thing she wants to do is suddenly uproot her family.
But that is exactly what happened last year when Johnson was renting a Ruskin Heights home in the 6800 block of East 114th Terrace.
Johnson noticed the first sign of trouble when she returned from a grocery trip and saw a stranger standing in her front yard. The man identified himself as a representative with a mortgage company and said he was checking to see if the home was occupied.
Shortly thereafter, a letter arrived in the mail, informing Johnson the home would be foreclosed. The unexpected news threw her into a panic.
"I thought my kids were about to be on the street," Johnson said. "I didn't know what was going on. All I knew is we were being foreclosed upon."
Johnson receives Section 8 assistance from the Housing Authority of Kansas City (HAKC). Depending on factors like family size and income, the government pays a portion or all of a qualifying resident's monthly rent.
In Johnson's case, taxpayers had been covering the entire $827 monthly cost. As a result, she knew her landlord had been getting the steady, guaranteed rental income for the past 2.5 years.
"My biggest question was, 'Where was all that money going?" she said.
Landlord forecloses on homes while receiving thousands of taxpayer dollars
41 Action News discovered Johnson's story was not an isolated incident. By searching Jackson County online records, we found the same landlord had purchased nine homes in 2007 and 2008.
Then, like dominoes, documents show all nine properties fell into foreclosure over the course of a year, beginning in December, 2010.
An Open Records Request to HAKC revealed seven of the properties received government-subsidized rental payments totaling more than $165,000 during that time period.
In several instances, the landlord continued getting rental checks long after the foreclosure notices started showing up in the mail (a process that can drag on for more than six months).
In one case, there were even two monthly payments made to the landlord after the bank took possession of the home.
Milika Moseley was living in a home in the 10800 block of Bristol Terrace when she received a foreclosure notice last May. Like Johnson, the single mother of three was getting her $880 monthly rent paid by HAKC.
"It's stressful. A lot of things go through your mind like, 'What am I going to do with my kids?'" Moseley said. "It's scary not knowing what you're going to do or where your next move is going to be."
Government says foreclosure is not a breach of housing contract
The 41 Action News investigation started with a tip from a Kansas City area realtor who wondered why HAKC was not cross-referencing foreclosures with its list of landlords receiving monthly payments.
"Why does Section 8 seem to be oblivious to this?" the realtor wrote. "Why should taxpayer money repeatedly go to landlords who are defaulting on their mortgages?"
41 Action News took those questions to HAKC Executive Director Ed Lowndes, who said a history of foreclosures does not get a landlord blacklisted from doing business with the government.
Instead, he said the HAKC is only concerned with the home passing rigorous annual inspections to ensure tenants have a safe place to live. Failing an inspection and not making the necessary repair can result in payments beyond stopped, Lowndes said. However, failing to pay the bank is not a breach of contract.
"There is not a requirement that the landlords use the money we pay for any of their financial obligations, whether it's a car loan, credit card debt or a home mortgage," said Lowndes.
The only exception is if a home with a Section 8 tenant is backed by a federally-secured mortgage.
Landlord responds to questions about foreclosures
Since HAKC does not track foreclosures, it is tough to know how big the problem is. During the course of our investigation, 41 Action News identified several other cases where landlords foreclosed on homes occupied by Section 8 tenants.
When contacted by 41 Action News, Johnson and Moseley's former landlord declined an on-camera interview. He also asked not to be identified, saying the string of foreclosures is embarrassing and has left his family
financially devastated.
"We thought this would be a long-term investment that would pay for the kids' colleges," the landlord said. "Now we don't have any savings."
While the monthly Section 8 payments are consistent and always on time, the landlord said the income does not account for many of the home repairs required to pass inspections. The burst of the housing bubble also reduced the investment property to a fraction of its previous value.
Even so, the landlord said it would make sense to him if the HAKC stopped making payments upon learning about one of his foreclosures.
Should the housing assistance policy change?
Federal law does provide some protections for Section 8 renters facing foreclosures. For instance, new owners have to honor existing leases unless they plan to occupy the home. In those cases, a 90-day warning must be provided prior to eviction.
But Johnson said those safeguards can be overshadowed by fear and uncertainty. She has since moved into a nearby rental property in Ruskin Heights.
"If the landlord is not paying for the property, I think Section 8 should be notified so they can stop making payments and they can also let tenants know what's going on so they won't be in the same situation I was in," she said.
41 Action News asked why a line can't be added to the housing contract, requiring Section 8 funds be used to pay the mortgage.
Lowndes said an amendment like that would most likely come from Congress, which would instruct the US Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) to make the change.
However, Lowndes cautioned the shift in rules would add a complex new layer of oversight and resources. He said the government would also need cooperation from banks about getting notification regarding foreclosures.
"If they fix it, we'll enforce it," he said.
Every year, HAKC serves an estimated 7,510 families by distributing $40 million of federal tax dollars to about 3,000 landlords.

Deta went over the pertinent rules for content
notes, from AACR2r, the LC Rule Interpretations (LC RIs), and Music Cataloging
Decisions (MCDs). (The RIs and MCDs are available to us on the LC DeskTop).
This report combines her presented material, her answers to questions asked
during her presentation, and my additions of the rules that Deta cited.
Contents can be taken from any source, even other than the item in hand.
Contents notes for scores usually include those contents that actually
are music. Accompanying textual material, such as biographical
information, performance instructions, and critical report are included in
the note for
material (5.7B11).
There are no guidelines in AACR2 as to the order in which contents are listed
in the contents note when the order of titles in a table of contents varies
from the order in which they physically appear in the item.
A recording with
a single work
For playing time for a recording with a single work, see 1.5B4. Give
the duration as stated on the item, using the abbreviations in the appendix
of AACR2, in the physical description area (300 field):
hour/hours | = hr. |
minute/minutes | = min. |
second/seconds | = sec. |
Printed vs. actual durations: If there is more
accurate information about the durations printed on the recording, container,
etc., use it. If the insert says 53 min., 13 sec. and it actually lasts 53
min., 50 sec., use the actual time. However, it's not worth it to actually
play the recording to determine if the stated durations are correct.
300 1 sound disc (40 min.)
300 1 sound disc (43 min., 23 sec.)
300 1 sound disc (1 hr., 20 min.)
The duration is given in the 300 field only
when the disc contains one work; otherwise the total duration
is not given in the 300 field.
A recording or score with two or more works
or a score with a single work
Duration for a score with a
single work
For a score with only one work, give the duration in a note (5XX);
not in the physical description (300).
Durations for a
recording or score
with two or more works
For instructions on transcribing durations for a recording or score with
two or more works, see LC RI 6.7B10. Give the durations in a note
(5XX) as they appear on the item, as stated above. However, MCD RI 6.7B10
says to express the duration by separating the hours, minutes, and seconds
with colons:
40 min. | 40:00 | 40 min. |
3 min., 23 sec. | 3:23 | |
1 hr., 20 min. | 1:20:00 | |
45 sec. | :45 | 45 sec. |
This applies only to note fields (for all scores
and for recordings with two or more works). When the duration is in the 300
field (for recordings with one work only), you do not use the colons:
300 1 sound disc (1 hr., 20 min.) | not |
300 1 sound disc (1:20:00) |
MCD 6.7B10 limits to six the number of durations
that are to listed. This is an LC policy only, so we can feel free to include
For items with no collective title in the 245 (each
work on the disc is included in the 245), put the durations in a separate
500 field.
500 Durations: 6:17; 8:45; 10:21; 12:05. |
For items with a collective title in the 245 (each work is included in a 505), include the durations there.
505 0 Title (6:17) -- Title (8:45) -- Title (10:21) -- Title (12:05). |
505 0 Title / composer 1 (6:17) -- Title / composer 2 (8:45) -- Title / composer 3 (10:21) -- Title / composer 4 (12:05). |
° One
or more works by one or more composers (listed in the order in which they
appear on the item)
° Duration follows the statement
of responsibility for single titles; durations follow the titles for multiple
titles by one composer separated by a semi-colon:
505 0 Title / composer 1 (6:17) -- Title / composer 2 (8:45) -- Title / composer 1 (10:21) -- Title / composer 2 (12:05). |
505 0 Title / composer 1 (6:17) -- Title (8:45) ; Title (10:21) / composer 2 -- Title / composer 3 (12:05). |
1.1G3 is our guidance here. It says to transcribe the titles of individually titles works in the order in which they appear in the chief source of information. Separate the titles by semicolons if they're by the same composer (nothing new here).
If the works are by different composers, follow the title of each work by its parallel title, other title information, and statement of responsibility. Separate group with a period and ONE space (LC RI 1.0C)
Generally, choose only one source for transcribing title information and do not combine information from more than one source.
Don't use brackets in the contents note, for three reasons:
See LC RI 1.0C for punctuation and spacing. Although this is available to us in the LC DeskTop, I will summarize information we would need for content notes:
More than one 505 field: | no final punctuation until the final 505 field | |
Complete or partial contents: | use final punctuation | |
Tag | Indicator | Possible final punctuation |
505 | 0 | . > " ? ! - -- |
505 | 1 | never ADD punctuation |
505 | 2 | . > " ? ! - -- |
Brackets and final parentheses are not considered final punctuation, so when final punctuation is required, add a period following a bracket or parenthesis. |
See 1.1B1 for instructions. This is familiar to us. But, 1.1B4 gives us permission to abridge, and it says we can do so if we include at least the first five words and don't lose crucial information by abridging.
LC RI 2.7B18 says to transcribe the TITLE PROPER that appears in the table of contents, unless another source gives a "more authoritative account of the data."
The title proper would include the title itself and the name or number of a part.
For generic title, also include medium of performance, work or serial number, etc. For distinctive titles, exclude this information. The MCD 2.7B18 doesn't add anything to this. But 5.7B18 says to add to the titles opus numbers if they are necessary to identify the works. I suppose the 518 for performers and instruments or a 500 for form of work and instrumentation is then the only way to include medium of performance for works with distinctive titles.
For multi-part items, give the volume numbering stated on the item. If it's not stated, don't make one up. So, in other words, using [CD 1] and [CD 2] is technically incorrect. Nowhere in the rules, RIs, or MCDs does it say this can be done.
When the term "volume" is used, use the abbreviation Vol. or Vols. at the beginning of a note or preceding a Roman numeral.
Use ISBD punctuation (see 1.0C and RI 1.0C),
so that when we have a title and the title of a part, a period, not a colon,
separates the title of the whole from the title of the part. (See 1.1B9)
The period indicates that what follows is subordinate:
Title. Title of the part | not | Title: Title of the part |
Statements of responsibility should be transcribed as they appear. Here we can use brackets to clarify or explain the role of that person. Again, use abbreviations only when they appear in the source, and follow AACR2 App. B. For example, arranger and arranged are both abbreviated as arr.
page: Fünfzehn Arien für
eine Altstimme aus Kantaten
Table of contents:
Kantate Nr. 22 Jesus nahm zu sich die Zwölfe
Kantate Nr. 30 Freue dich, erlöste Schar
Kantate Nr. 33 Allein zu dir, Herr Jesu Christ
Kantate Nr. 34 O ewiges Feuer
505 0 Nr. 22. Jesus nahm zu sich die Zwölfe -- Nr. 30. Freue dich, erlöste Schar -- Nr. 33. Allein zu dir, Herr Jesu Christ -- Nr. 34. O ewiges Feuer ... |
Use the abbreviation "Nr." because the contents are in German. Don't repeat "Kantate" each time, because it appears in the 245 field. Follow Nr. __ with a period, because the title of a part of a larger work is followed by a period.
Title page: Folk songs in settings by master composers / Herbert Haufrecht ; with a preface by Virgil Thomson.
505 0 English songs -- Irish songs -- Scottish songs -- Welsh songs -- American songs. |

In the second example here, dashes were used between individual titles rather than semicolons because some of the composers wrote more than one work. Otherwise it could have been:

Brooklyn, she is a squirrely strange beast. A land of artisinal cheeses and small-batch decorative axes. She is also a land where men occasionally deign to tuck their long hair into buns. This is newsworthy, so says The New York Times, which has devoted more than a thousand words to exploring the not-actually-a-trend tremd. It seems a writer for the paper visited a Brooklyn bar and saw two bartenders there who preferred wearing their long locks in a bun, rather than a hair net.
But really, how do you make this exotic hair bun — on a clunky, squarish man's head, no less? Keep reading »

Paprika - A guide to including nutritional and medicinal information and some recipe ideas.
Paprika is a spice that comes from a type of sweet red pepper sometimes known as the paprika pepper (Capsicum annum). The seeds are removed from the fruit and the peppers are then dried and subsequently ground down into a deep red powder.
There are different varieties of the paprika pepper, which are grown in different parts of the world and this means that some varieties of paprika will have a different flavour and strength to others.
Capsicum peppers also include chillies and all capsicum peppers are from the same family as tomatoes, potatoes and deadly nightshade.
History of paprika
Capsicum peppers are native to tropical South America and the West Indies and were probably not introduced into Europe and other parts of the world until after the 16th century.
Originally, the tropical paprika pepper was much hotter and fiery in taste than it is now. Over time and due to different climates, types of soil and growing conditions, the paprika pepper has evolved into a somewhat milder and sweeter variety of its ancestor.
Paprika peppers are commercially produced in Spain, California and Hungary and it is the latter variety that is famed throughout the world for its flavour and quality.
Paprika from Spain and the US are particularly mild and sweet in strength and flavour, however Hungarian paprika is much richer, flavoursome and robust.
Hungarian paprika
Paprika is central to Hungarian cooking and it is the spice that is most used in all types of dishes.
In many other cuisines, paprika is used solely for its colour and as a garnish; however, in Hungary paprika is also prized for its flavour.
There are six varieties of Hungarian paprika that range from delicate to hot and fiery. In comparison, the Spanish variety has only three grades (sweet, semi-sweet and hot).
Hungary's most famed dish, goulash, is also the national dish of the country and the flavour of the whole dish is based on the paprika spice. Goulash is a type of thick and spicy stew that is made from beef, onions and heaps of paprika.
Nutritional value of paprika
Red peppers have been found to contain as much as seven times the amount of Vitamin C as oranges and other types of citrus fruit. However, due to the high temperatures undergone during the drying process when preparing the paprika spice, much of the Vitamin C content is lost.
Nevertheless, paprika is still a very good source of Vitamin C and is an excellent source of Vitamin A. It also contains Vitamins E and K, which are vital for the health of the veins and capillaries in the body.
With regards to
content, paprika is a good source of iron and potassium and also contains levels of magnesium, phosphorous and potassium.
Medicinal value of paprika
Paprika is probably best valued for its high Vitamin A, C, E and K content (see
our article
on vitamins for more information).
As the paprika pepper belongs to the same family as the chilli, it has many of the same therapeutic qualities. However, the hotter the pepper or chilli, the higher the amount of capsaicin, a highly beneficial and medicinal component found in these vegetables.
As paprika is not as strong as the cayenne or chilli pepper, its therapeutic effects are not as pronounced as its hotter counterparts.
Despite this paprika is known to be an excellent stimulant and energiser, which is particularly useful in poor circulation, tiredness, lethargy and depression. (For other related therapeutic properties see Guide to cayenne).
Buying and storing paprika
Paprika can be bought from your local supermarket. It is usually sold in an airtight glass container or jar.
You will most likely find the sweeter and milder varieties of paprika in your local store and for the hotter type you might have to look elsewhere in a specialist market or shop.
Paprika should be stored in a cool and dark cupboard away from direct sunlight, as it has a tendency to deteriorate quite quickly. For this reason, if you only use paprika occasionally, it is best to buy the spice in small quantities, as it will only last for a few months.
Cooking with paprika
Care must be taken when cooking with paprika. Due to the high sugar content contained in the spice, if paprika is fried for too long or at a temperature that is too high, it will rapidly turn bitter. This can happen in the matter of a few seconds and could potentially spoil and good plate of food.
However, the longer the paprika is fried, the more flavour is released. Therefore, some people consider it a great skill to prepare a highly flavoursome goulash for example, that is rich in body yet has no hint of bitterness whatsoever.
For the best and safest results, cook paprika in some form of liquid and do not heat for too long.
Culinary uses of paprika
In many parts of the world paprika is respected for its colour only and not for its flavour. For those who prefer a hotter spice, they will be more inclined to cook with either
or chilli. For this reason paprika is mainly used as a garnish for dishes such as egg mayonnaise or
potato salad
In Spain, where it is slightly more popular, paprika is used to flavour certain types of sausage and cured meats, such as "chorizo" and "sobrasada". It is also used in stews, sauces and to flavour seafood and shellfish.
Commercially paprika is included in a variety of products ranging from cheeses to
tomato sauces
, soups and spice blends.
In Eastern European cooking there are many more uses for paprika. As well as the main flavouring for goulash, paprika is also used in chicken, cabbage, potato and other vegetable dishes.
Paprika can also be added to meat and fish marinades, rubs and sauces for a milder and sweeter flavour.
Paprika Recipes
A collection of recipes that include paprika as a main flavouring and ingredient, including recipes for beef goulash, spicy fried chicken pieces and spicy cod and mango stir-fry.
Beef Goulash
Goulash, a thick, rich and flavoursome beef stew is the national dish of Hungary. The secret is to cook the dish slowly in order to bring out the best flavours of all the ingredients and to ensure that the meat is tender and soft.
1 lb 10 oz (740 g) of lean stewing steak, cut into chunks
20 fl oz (600 ml) of beef stock
14 oz (400 g) tin of chopped tomatoes
6 oz (170 g) of sliced mushrooms
1 red pepper, deseeded and chopped
1 chopped onion
1 crushed clove of garlic
2 tbsp of
2 tbsp of tomato purée
2 tbsp of lard
1 tbsp of cornflour
1 tbsp of water
freshly chopped
to garnish
salt and pepper
Heat the lard in a large frying pan or heavy-based saucepan.
Add the chopped onion and garlic and fry over a medium heat for about 5 - 6 minutes.
Add the chunks of beef and fry until browned all over (3 - 4 minutes).
Add the paprika and coat the meat in the spice.
Do not let the paprika cook for too long. Add the tinned tomatoes, tomato purée, chopped red pepper and the mushrooms and mix all of the ingredients together. Cook for a further 3 - 4 minutes, stirring frequently.
Carefully add the beef stock and bring to the boil.
Reduce the heat and cover the pan. Cook on a low simmer for 1½ - 2 hours or until the meat is soft. Keep an eye on the dish during cooking and stir regularly.
In a small cup or mixing bowl, combine the cornflour with the water until a paste has formed. Add to the pan and stir well until the goulash has thickened.
Season with salt and pepper.
Once the desired texture and flavour has been reached serve the goulash hot with rice or potatoes.
Spicy Fried Chicken Pieces
You can use chicken drumsticks in this recipe. The chicken is soaked in buttermilk, coated in a flour and paprika mixture, fried in oil and then left to cook slowly until cooked though and crispy.
3 lb (1.35 kg) of chicken pieces (drumsticks)
4 fl oz (115 ml) of buttermilk
2 oz (55 g) of plain flour
1 tbsp of paprika
1 tbsp of water
1 tsp of
black pepper
vegetable oil for frying
Place the buttermilk into a large bowl and add the chicken drumsticks.
Mix together and leave to one side for 5 minutes.
Heat ½ inch of vegetable oil in a large frying pan.
Place the flour together with the paprika and pepper in a bowl and combine.
Take a piece of chicken and dip it into the flour mixture, coating it evenly all over.
Repeat with the remaining pieces of chicken.
Fry the chicken pieces in the hot oil for about 10 minutes, turning halfway through cooking time to ensure a light brown coating all over.
Once the chicken pieces are browned, reduce the heat to low and add the water.
Cover the pan with a lid and continue to cook over a gentle heat for a further 30 minutes. Turn the chicken pieces over at regular intervals.
Remove the lid and cook further until the coating is crispy and the chicken is tender.
Drain on kitchen paper and serve hot or cold.
Spicy Cod and Mango Stir-Fry
This is an exotic and exciting recipe for cod, which is perfectly partnered with green and orange peppers, baby corn, bean sprouts and mango.
1 lb (455 g) of skinless cod fillet
3½ oz (100 g) of baby corn
3½ oz (100 g) of bean sprouts
1 sliced green pepper
1 sliced orange pepper
1 sliced mango
1 sliced red onion
2 tbsp of tomato ketchup
2 tbsp of soy sauce
2 tbsp of medium sherry
2 tbsp of sunflower oil
1 tbsp of paprika
1 tsp of cornflour
Rinse the fish under a cold running tap and then pat dry with kitchen towel.
Slice the cod into thin strips with a sharp knife.
Place the cod into a bowl or dish and add the paprika. Coat the fish with the spice and set to one side.
Heat the oil in a large wok.
Add the sliced onion, peppers and baby corn and stir-fry for about 4 - 5 minutes, mixing all the ingredients together.
Add the sliced cod and the mango and cook for a further 3 minutes until the cod is cooked through.
Finally add the bean sprouts and mix well.
In a small mixing bowl, blend together the tomato ketchup, soy sauce, sherry and the cornflour with a spoon until smooth.
Add the mixture to the wok and stir well.
Cook until the juices have been thickened by the cornflour (2 minutes).
Transfer the stir-fry to individual serving dishes and serve hot with noodles or rice.

PHOENIX - Jodi Arias is scheduled to testify for the 12th day on Wednesday after a prosecutor worked to poke holes in her stories and questioned the duplicity of her portrayal of the victim.
The 32-year-old is charged in the June 2008 death of her lover in his suburban Phoenix home. She says it was self-defense, but police say she planned the attack on 30-year-old Travis Alexander in a jealous rage.
Testimony in the case began in early January.
A prosecutor on Tuesday hammered Arias over how she initially lied to authorities, telling them she wasn't involved, before eventually settling on self-defense.
He also noted how Arias has described Alexander as a violent, womanizing sexual deviant, but also as a kind and beautiful person.
Arias faces the death penalty if convicted.

UBC Library Says Goodbye to CINAHL and PsycINFO on Ovid
The University of British Columbia Library has decided to go with EBSCO for CINAHL and PsycINFO in lieu of Ovid. Dean Giustini said, "This will be a shock to some end-users, but medical search has been destablized by Google Scholar and open access journals. Why should libraries pay big bucks for any tool when cheaper (or free) alternatives are on offer?"
What are your thoughts about expensive databases (not just Ovid) and Google Scholar and open access?

Designs have been released for a new housing and urban redevelopment project in the suburb of Stone High, Turin. Conceived by Studio Costa & Partners and Studio Mellano Associati, The Sharing Project, winner of a competition organised by Turin's Public Housing Construction Division, involves the recovery of a former residential block for Post Office employees built in the 70s.
The poor state of preservation of the building, the need to reclaim the Eternit (fibre-cement board containing asbestos) roofing and to bring systems up to today's standards led the firm to totally rethink the functional organisation of the complex. The building will accommodate various forms of temporary social housing with a series of socially related, health and commercial services open to the inhabitants.
The complex, which will be completed in December 2010, is located in an area of approx. 10,000 sq m, made up of two units with nine floors each. Plans are to create 180 residential units earmarked for a social segment in temporary housing hardship, such as young couples, single mothers with children, students, people waiting for public housing, workers on job transfer, immigrants. A series of support services will also be offered, such as a mediation centre, legal aid services, educational and recreational spaces for children and young people, controlled-price out-patient medical centres, meeting places for cultural activities and events, as well as a bio-market, coffee bar and restaurants.
The renovation of the property also provides structural design and engineering of major technological innovation in order to achieve an energy-efficient building based on the principles of environmental sustainability. Environmentally friendly materials will be used as well as low-maintenance, sustainable energy production facilities, such as a photovoltaic solar system for electricity production, and a solar heating system that will provide hot water.

Petra Nemcova is hanging up her dancing shoes.While the model, former "Girl Next Door" star Kendra Wilkinson and "Karate Kid" Ralph Macchio all scored a 22/30 last night, Petra and partner Dmitry Chaplin earned the fewest public votes and were sent home. Other stars still remaining on "Dancing With the Stars" are Kirstie Alley, Chris Jericho, Romeo, Hines Ward, and Chelsea Kane.
Joanne: 1381 days ago
Kirstie Alley is a mess. Why does she never have the mop on top of her head combed and styled? It just adds to her overall sloppy look. The costumes do nothing to flatter her. And she is constntly twisting her lips in such a way to take away from what few looks she has naturally. I never watch the dancing when she is performing. she is just too disgusting to watch.
c. george: 1353 days ago
The judges tear apart the good dancers and praise Kirstie Alley. She is the worst dancer and made the finals. Is it a personalty contest or a dancing contest? I am beginning to think the show is rigged. I won't be back to watch next season. Too bad, because I use to enjoy it. I use to be a dancer, so you can imagine how frustrating it is to watch.

OK, so I've finally gottn the hang of veggies, and partial success with herbs. Now I'm ready to tackle FLOWERS. I"m in 5b, and I 've gotten seed packets for my area, with a variety of heights and colors. But I'm overwhelmed ( last counts was about 24 varietes), is it easier to plan with those in an excel format? Other than the basics: sun/shade, height, color what else should I track to make planning where to put all these easier? And my seed packets don't all show bloom time, how important is that? This is for a larger (to me) east/northeast corner front bed on a corner lot, so I wanna get it close the first time. Thinking about potting up another batch this weekend, gosh my deck is getting full, lol |
Follow-Up Postings:
Poolgoddess, most likely you won't get it all right the first year, so try to relax. Some plants will grow taller, or wider, or slower than you expect or the packets say. In fact I am still working on design in garden beds that are 8 years old now. Fairly well ordered and the bones are in place, but plants die, are eaten by voles, get too big, decline, sun patterns change as trees and shrubs grow, etc. so I am always moving things around and adding new things. I keep an excel sow chart every year, that includes the species/cultivar, date sown, # seeds, date sprouted, etc. In the first year I included sun preference, height, and moisture preference. I used the "wetland indicator" from the USDA plants database, which consists of a range between wetland, facultative, and upland plants (or you could wet-mesic-dry). But after I became more familiar with the plants I dropped those columns from the chart and added notes instead. I haven't ever tilled, just hand dig the gardens. But the first year I would mix in compost and maybe leaves etc. using the shovel or tiller. Once the soil has a good texture, you don't need to turn it every year. After that you can topdress with compost or scratch in some fertilizer each year. Flowers need some nutrients, but generally aren't as nutrient intensive as veggies. Organic matter will attract worms which will also fertliize the soil. But some flowers like it lean - fertilizer makes their growth floppy or too much nitrogen can encourage foliage growth over flowers! |
The one thing I'm careful to note besides what's already been mentioned, is whether a perennial plant makes a taproot or is otherwise hard to transplant once settled. I'm more careful about placement of those plants. Anything else is fair game to "plunk and run" wherever I see a spot at transplant time. I figure, if I decide later it's in the wrong spot, I'll move it. Annuals are temporary anyway. If I decide I don't like where they are this year I'll do it differently next year. For example, last year's larkspur was shorter than I expected, and planted in the back of the bed where it hid behind everything else. This year I'm planting some in front. |
Great advice terrene and edie, although be careful what you wish for when it comes to larkspur. Mine was in a mixed seed pack a few years back and it grows tall and plentiful every year now -- it reseeds like crazy, and since it's outside one of my veggie gardens I'm pulling it like a weed from inside the fence as well. It is pretty when it blooms against the fence, though. |

Instrumental Concert to be Held April 16
Tuesday, April 16th, 2013
Wesleyan's Music Department will present their spring instrumental concert on Tuesday, April 16 at 7:30 p.m. in the Virginia Thomas Law Center for the Performing Arts.
This year's concert will feature the Wesleyan Concert Band, a traditional American wind band that explores a wide variety of literature, directed by Dr. James Moore, assistant professor of music and director of instrumental ensembles at the College. This ensemble will present three pieces: Paul Creston's Celebration Overture, Franz Schubert's Marche Militaire, Op. 51, and movements from Ralph Vaughn Williams' Folk Song Suite.
Moore explains these pieces present unique challenges for the student-musicians.
"The dense harmonies and virtuosic passages in Creston's Overture make it one of the most difficult pieces that we have ever tackled," stated Moore. "The students have worked very hard on this piece, and I really feel like it has pushed them toward a broader understanding of what is possible within the wind band tradition."
Vaughn Williams' work is a "classic that every instrumentalist within the band tradition should be familiar with," says Moore. "The multi-meter layering that occurs throughout is really beautiful, and it has been a real treat to hear the students improve."
Schubert's piece is an adaptation that was done by Moore himself for the group. The original, scored to include strings and other instruments not typically found in American wind bands, needed to be rescored for the Concert Band's unique instrumentation.
Sharing the bill with the Concert Band is Chamber Winds, a new ensemble comprised primarily of music majors that performs chamber works adapted for a small wind ensemble. This group will perform works from the Baroque and Classical eras by such composers as William Boyce and W.A. Mozart. A highlight of this group's portion of the concert will be the performance of the second movement of the Mozart concerto for Clarinet in A by junior music education major Robin Samuels.
"It has been a very busy semester for our performing artists, and we appreciate their hard work and dedication."
The concert is free and open to the public.
