Unbiased Reviews by Real People
I've just "discovered" still another great jazz musician who has been recognized for his excellence since 1964. Charles Tolliver is a self-taught trumpet player, composer, arranger and band leader. His most recent CD, "Charles Tolliver Big Band With Love" is not his first big band album. In the 1970's, he recorded several records for an independent label, Strata. "With Love" features Tolliver's first album for a major jazz label, Blue Note. Born in 1942 in Florida, he received his first trumpet at the age of 8 but never had any lessons. His love for jazz exceeded his desire to stay in college and, in 1964, Tolliver got a big break when noted sax player Jackie McLean asked him to be a sideman on a McLean-Blue Note record. Over the next few years, Tolliver played with a number of jazz greats including Horace Silver, Max Roach, Gerald Wilson, McCoy Tyner and Sonny Rollins. He fronted his own big band for a few albums in the 70's and was recognized as one of the best jazz men around by the pros. On this CD, Tolliver plays lead trumpet, composed and arranged all of the songs on the album (except one) and generally creates some totally original Big Band jazz. I like what Tolliver has said about his favorite music: "Jazz is about theme, melody, call and response, counterpoint if you want but not overly done, and always improvising." While his trumpet playing is still top-notch (his early influences were Clifford Brown and Freddie Hubbard), Tolliver's real calling is found with what he does with his other "instrument", i.e., his band. This music is truly innovative and challenging. Tolliver is joined by some of his oldest friends in the business: bassist Cecil McBee, pianist Stanley Cowell and baritone sax player Howard Johnson. Tolliver points out that his music is always heavily dependent on the drummer and the excellent stick man Victor Lewis performs that task here. The excellent liner notes include a feature that I really like: soloists are listed for each cut. Here's my take on the music: 1. REJOICIN' 6:19 Tolliver briefly describes this as "an up-tempo 3/4 waltz celebration to 'open up the book' so to speak. And, man, does the book open with excitement. Tolliver and his band member seem to jump right into the middle of a complex arrangement with the woodwinds and brass sections playing off of each other before Tolliver takes the first solo. At 64, his power on the trumpet is amazing and he soars over the band. Todd Bashore has the next solo on alto sax. Bashore opens with a wild array of notes before settling into the main theme. Robert Glasper then plays a rocking piano solo over Lewis' pounding drums. This is unlike almost any "waltz" I've ever heard but it certainly does "open the book". 2. WITH LOVE 9:24 The title cut starts off quietly with some fine section work from the reeds and then the brass. While the sections trade fours, Bill Saxton plays a solo on tenor sax that is over the entire band. Tolliver again has a fine solo in which he features his higher register at a rapid tempo. The length of the song gives each soloist time to stretch out. While his "solo" continues the rhythm pattern switches and the rest of the band joins in for a few bars. Stanley Cowell then plays a great piano solo and Victor Lewis is right there on drums in what Tolliver calls an "8/8 rhythm". For most the song, the tempo is smooth but the band moves into a fever pitch for the last several bars. 3. 'ROUND MIDNIGHT-Monk 9:08 Tolliver calls this Monk tune "one of THE quintessentials of our music." Tolliver's unique arrangement moves slowly into the song with hints of the main theme before he states that theme beautifully on a soulful trumpet solo that mirrors the lyrics. Cowell's piano is the only instrument playing with him for several bars and the mournful feeling of the song is emphasized for almost 3 minutes. Then, the entire band explodes into competing statements between the brass and woodwinds. Tolliver is back at a fast pace with bassist McBee and drummer Lewis flying along with him. There are occasional bursts from the band over this second solo before Cowell comes in at the same pace on piano. McBee and Lewis don't miss a beat as they continue to race along with Cowell. Once again, the entire band blasts back in until, once more, there is a major tempo change, this time downward. Tolliver, McBee and Cowell revert to the soulful opening tempo with a poignant beauty before again ending with a flourish. 4. MOURNIN' VARIATIONS 10:55 In an amazing change of pace, Craig Handy is featured on a beautiful, simple flute solo of a sort. There is also a clarinet playing. The tempo is slow, the theme is repeated. Instead of "mournin", it seems more like "morning" to me. And then the sun rises! The entire band takes off like a rocket with variations on that simple opening theme. Cowell is on piano and Howard Johnson plays a funky baritone sax solo. One of the amazing things about Tolliver arrangements is that, although there are great solos. they are often played over a wild array of instruments underneath those solos. Stafford Hunter virtually "groans" a solo out on his horn (again over a number of instruments). Tolliver is back on trumpet with this same powerful accompaniment by the entire band. For the sake of time, I'm only going to list the last three songs. What sets the album apart from most "big band" records are not only the incredible arrangements and musical talents, but the energy level of the entire band. The last three songs are: 5. RIGHT NOW 6:29 Tolliver wrote this for his McLean small group album and the song keeps a tight feeling even with the big band 6. SUSPICION 8:36 Tolliver also wrote this song for a smaller group featuring a guitar. His son, Ched, plays a fine solo here as does bassist McBee. This song reminds me very much of some of the music of Leonard Bernstein, especially "West Side Story." 7. HIT THE SPOT 8:06 "Closing the Book" with another up-tempo song which has drummer Lewis in the spotlight with echoes of his drumming played by the band While Tolliver may not be a household name in jazz like Ellington or Basie, he deserves a seat in the house of jazz innovators. He is innovative, original, energetic and daring. His music is not your run-of-the-mill big band jazz. With elements of Kenton, Gillespie, and Ellington, Tolliver's music has both the beauty and power to keep an audience yelling for more. FIVE STARS

Welcome to the Somerset Group of the Hardy Plant Society
The UK
Hardy Plant Society
(HPS) was formed in 1957 to foster interest in hardy herbaceous plants on the widest possible scale. The aims of the society are to give its members information about the wealth of both well and little known plants, and to ensure that all worthy plants remain in cultivation and have the widest possible distribution. In the Somerset Local Group, we provide information and activities at a local level for Hardy Plant Society members to promote the aims of the society.
This is accomplished by organising a programme of meetings, visits and publishing a local newsletter. (Please see the
Programme of Events
page for full details of forthcoming events.)
Membership of the local group is open to anyone who is member of the Hardy Plant Society nationally. You can find details of how to join on the

Plant of the Month
Viburnum farreri
Twenty-five years ago when I started the formal garden immediately behind our house I visualised beds of blue, white, and yellow flowers, cool and fresh in such a hot place. No pink. And no strident colours.
I began with a few structural trees, roses and large shrubs to create a backbone for the ephemera. I had always had an eye on one or two unusual shrubs in the nursery in Kent where I had been working as a Propagator. So I bought a lovely white
Deutzia setchuenensis
which flowers in mid-summer, and some of the 'old' roses with romantic names and scented white flowers.
But for the winter I was a bit stumped. In the centre I planted a conical
Ilex aquifolium
'Silver King', and on each corner I placed a silver variegated box. So when I came to propagate
Viburnum farreri
'Candidissimum' it seemed to be the answer.
I put it immediately outside the back door so that the heady scent of its chalk-white flowers would fill the kitchen and bedrooms above, and planted a blue
'Prince Charles' at its foot to clamber its way through. This has proved the perfect companion.
Now, in early spring I gently disentangle the old clematis stems from the viburnum and cut them down to about 30cm (12ins) from the ground. And in late spring I cut back the flowered viburnum branches. The two of them complement each other beautifully.

Interior decorating isn't hard and doesn't require years of professional expertise in order to help you design your home. Simple steps and ideas can already have you thinking and acting like a pro. The article below focuses on some of the great ways that you can use interior decorating to your home's advantage!
A great interior decorating tip is to start going to more yard sales and thrift stores. You'd be amazed at some of the unique things that you can find at these avenues versus the typical places like Ikea. You might come across a great end table or beautifully decorated vase.
A great way to liven up an otherwise boring or complicated space is to create a point of focus in the room. This focal point will become the highlight of the space, and everything else that's in the room will work to support the focal point. Focal points to think about working around include fireplaces, windows, artworks and stately pieces of furniture.
Make sure that before you engage in designing your home that you have a plan in place. This can help a lot to reduce your worry when you are in the process of designing your home. Also, you can organize your finances better when a plan is in place for your project.
Those looking to design a room in their home should be smart about it. Whatever items you decide to decorate your room with should not take away from the functionality of the room. For example, don't put a large piece in an area that where there will be a lot of traffic.
If you are planning on having a baby, try to set aside a room near the master bedroom to hold your child. This is important as you do not want to have to walk a long way to get to your baby in the middle of the night when he or she is crying.
A good interior decorating tip is to not get too carried away with showing off your big TV or entertainment system. When your friends are over, they won't be inclined to talk with a giant TV staring them down. If you still value conversation, make sure your TV isn't the center of attention.
When shopping for a new dining set, think ergonomics. Picture the table with every seat occupied in your dining room and consider how much space there is to walk around it. Your dining area must have enough room to accommodate the dining set when it is at its seating capacity without anyone pulling their seat in.
Try renovating your basement. Often times, basements are just used for storage and are kept dark and damp. With the same kind of attention, you give your other rooms; You could completely transform it into a place you'd like to spend time in. You could make it a recreation room, an office, or even a bedroom.
Many people have smaller rooms that they wish appeared to be bigger. This effect can be countered by painting walls with bright, light colors like off-whites or pastels. Dark colors absorb available light and can close a space off.
A good interior-design tip is not to get too crazy with all the pictures of your kids or your family. When people enter your home, they expect to see some of these kinds of pictures. However, too many will creep anyone out, and it might come across as a shrine.
You can add life and color to any room simply by adding potted plants. Try different types that bloom in various colors to coordinate with the decor of the room and you have an instant straight out of a magazine look. Greenery in the bathroom is especially nice if it is fragrant.
Try something completely new. You may think you do not like bright colors, for example. You may dislike velvet, but try it anyway! What you think you may not like may in fact be just the thing you need in your home to create a new and different look. You can start small, but trying new things helps you to re-evaluate what you like and can live without.
Remodeling your kitchen can be one of the most extensive (and expensive!) interior-design jobs in your house. Despite the hassle and expense involved, resist the temptation to save money by buying cheap cabinets. There's an enormous difference in quality between premium and cut-rate cabinets. You'll only end up replacing discount cabinetry a few years down the line.
If you have a big enough living room to pull the furniture off of the wall and create a more interesting space for you and your family. Putting the furniture smack dab against the wall is a huge mistake people make when they are arranging the furniture in their living room.
Adding a skylight is a great way to update an old room. Skylights allow light into the room and make it feel more open. Modern skylight companies are making innovative designs that can transform your rooms.
If your bathroom lacks windows, make sure to implement some moisture extracting methods into your design. This is important to avoid the buildup of mold and mildew in your space. Fans and dehumidifiers work well for this purpose. Consult with a professional contractor if you have questions or do not understand the best methods for your space.
An interior-design tip that has just recently come into fashion is to raise the ceilings in the home. Almost all new homes are built with vaulted or tray ceilings. Many older homes can be renovated because builders actually dropped the ceilings in the kitchens and bathroom areas, so there is a foot or more of unused space up above the existing ceiling.
When designing a particular room you should think about who will be using the room after it has been decorating. For example, if you entertain often, you should determine whether or not guests would join you in that room. You want to be sure that you have adequate seating for however would enjoy the room at once.
Interior decorating can work for anyone, including you! Don't feel overwhelmed by the amount of resources available on the subject. Go step by step and follow the advice from the article above and you will be well on your way to the home of your dreams. One step at a time, you can be an interior designer too!

text: I can't really argue with you here too much as I tend to agree with you on a decent amount of those points, though not nearly as harshly. The one point I wanted to make though was that: I don't think Japanese devs "don't know how to tell a story." I think the main issue is that Japanese storytelling and "Western" (or to speak from my perspective, simply American) style storytelling is remarkably different. They focus on different aspects of the performance, they are normally less focused on following a linear narrative, things like that. I don't claim to be an expert on this sort of thing or anything, the only reason I say it is I had the same sort of feelings about Japanese anime. Not to tangentialize this, but I have always felt that a lot of animes end poorly, and I was always confused as to why that is. When I asked around to people who I trust would know a bit more about it than I did, they pointed out how closure in the way we know it in the West is different then how they view it in Japan. Different cultures provide different emphasis when it comes to storytelling. Thats not to say games like DOA have excellent stories that "You just don't understand man!" I'm simply saying that there may be aspects of the story that you think are super important that they miss, and bits that they probably -did- put a lot of effort into because a Japanese market would find them important that you're probably missing.

If you move at high speed, time slows down, space squashes up, and you get heavier. Travel fast enough, and you could weigh as much as a jumbo jet, be flattened thinner than a CD without feeling a thing - and live forever! As for the angles of a triangle, they do not always have to add up to 180 degrees. And then, of course, there are black holes....
These are but a few of the extraordinary consequences of Einstein's theory of relativity. It is now over a hundred years since he made these discoveries, and yet the general public is still largely unaware of them. Filled with illuminating anecdotes and fascinating accounts of experiments, this book aims to introduce the interested lay person to the subject of relativity in a way which is accessible and engaging and at the same time scientifically rigorous. With relatively few mathematical equations - nothing more complicated than the Pythagoras theorem - this VSI packs a lot of time into very little space, and for anyone who has felt intimidated by Einstein's groundbreaking theory, it offers the perfect place to start.

"Trains, Flashlights, Rockets, and Twins."
I hate to say it. But the classy Very Brief Introductions Series is a good idea that, unfortunately, often fails to work. That goes double for the books in audio format. I have tried both this book on Relativity and the one on Thermodynamics. While the works are proficient and compact, that does not make them good introductions. In order to compress a serious discussion into the fewest pages, the authors naturally rely on formal definitions and basic formulas. After all, math is the most compact way to describe scientific principles. In audio, the result is dry and deadening, so much so that it is hard to grasp anything. The reading is competent but doesn???t help. (I doubt Lawrence Olivier would help.) In addition, the authors also rely on the tried and true examples, because???well, they are tried and true. I have always hoped for an introduction to relativity that offers a novel approach, perhaps using a close logical analysis of key words like ???distance??? and ???measurement,??? which we tend to take for granted. No such luck here. It???s the same old trains, flashlights, rocket ships, and twins???as if the pedagogy of special relativity were long ago carved in marble. The books may be good for students who want to review or cram. But for an equally brief and far more vivid introduction to relativity, I much preferred the Einstein book in the Knowledge Products ???Science and Discovery Series,??? which are much better written and well read, though marred by the use of actors to ???play??? historical figures in corny overwrought accents. This may be a handy guide in printed form, but brain numbing in audio.
The first explanation of the distinction between the Special and the General parts of Relativity that started to make sense. Now I have to go back and re-read it so I can remember how to explain what Inertial Frame of Reference is.
The whole manifold concept of spacetime is fascinating, along with the effect of velocity and gravitational field on the observed rate of time. Can all points in time exist in each point in space?
Got to go and study "Frame-dragging" more so I can get the significance of that too.
Lots more to read it for - could be looked as a simple intro to the development of the math involved in Relativity for non-mathematicians.
Just read it - or better yet, listen to the audio, then read it.

Imps to sign loan keeper
15 Nov 2007 - 10:32:55
Lincoln City have agreed to sign Doncaster Rovers goalkeeper Ben Smith on a month's loan.
The 21-year-old keeper will join the Imps on an emergency loan basis subject to confirmation from the Football League.
Smith has made just two appearances for the League One club this season in the Johnstone's Paint Trophy following the summer arrival of veteran keeper Neil Sullivan.
He joined the South Yorkshire side from Stockport County 18 months ago and made 23 appearances during his debut season at the Keepmoat Stadium.
"The goalkeeper will go straight into the squad for Saturday's game against Wycombe Wanderers," confirmed a club statement.

Sofia Vergara: 'I Love Making Money'
Ever since the Latin American star launched her fame stateside, she has been raking it in with her starring role as the side-splittingly feisty Gloria Delgado-Pritchett on hit sitcom Modern Family.
But even beyond the small screen, Vergara has parlayed her now-boldfaced name into even more dollar signs, landing movie parts, promotional spots for brands like Pepsi, and even her own clothing line at Kmart.
Though she's now engaged to fiancé Nick Loeb and is considering having another child — she already has son Manolo Gonzalez-Ripoll Vergara, 20 — Vergara won't be pumping the breaks on her still-blossoming career anytime soon.
"I've never had a plan for anything," Vergara told the June issue of Cosmopolitan. "I know I'm not going to get any more shows like Modern Family. If it ends in five years, it would be great to do movies and focus on things like my Kmart line. Maybe have a kid. But I am going to be working my whole life. I love making money. I really love it!"
In the meantime, Vergara isn't rushing to the altar with Loeb, who popped the question during her birthday getaway to Mexico last July. But when they do finally say "I do," it won't be a big to-do.
"He was already married with a big wedding and I was already married with a big wedding, so we're going to something but not right now," she explained. "When he proposed, it was my birthday, and I'd flown more than 100 family and friends to Mexico for six days of partying. It took me forever to arrange the logistics!

As she takes "advantage of my 15 minutes," Vergara is postponing baby plans. But if she ever decides to become a mom a second time over, she won't be going the au naturel route.
"I froze my eggs. I had to go to my doctor's office a hundred million times to do injections," she said. "My doctor had told me 'We have a small window.' I said, 'That's so rude!' I already have a kid, so I never thought I would need to do that. But I will have to use a surrogate, because I had thyroid cancer and lots of radiation.

I honestly dont like this head at all. When i opened the package and put the head on the shaft, the first thing I did was do a faceoff with it. It makes cracking noises when you bend it. I have only had it for about 2 weeks, but it is not a very durable head. Im going to guess that later on when you use this head for a season or two, it will warp.Pros:

Father Raymond de Souza in last week's WCR chose to criticize the exuberance of Phil Fontaine, the former national chief of the Assembly of First Nations, who saw the canonization of St. Kateri Tekakwitha as a step towards the reconciliation of Canada's aboriginal peoples with the Catholic Church.

The Constitution on the Sacred Liturgy was the first document approved at the Second Vatican Council. Unlike the council's other major documents, it sailed through the approval process fairly readily, although a tiny but vocal minority at first raised strenuous objections.
To some, it might seem odd that Pope Benedict has inaugurated a Year of Faith, a "year" that began Oct. 11 and will end Nov. 24, 2013, the feast of Christ the King. "Why would one need a year of faith?" one might ask. "Either you have faith or you don't."
Patriarch Maximos Saigh, head of the Melkite rite in Antioch, made his introduction to the Second Vatican Council by breaking a rule. Instead of speaking Latin as the rules required, the patriarch spoke unapologetically in French.
The federal government should restore the $1.3 million in funding that it hopes to save by eliminating part-time chaplains from the federal prison system. The most noxious aspect of this particular funding cut is that it will mean an end to almost all non-Christian chaplains who work to meet the spiritual needs of inmates in federal prisons.
All of the preliminaries were now over and the Second Vatican Council got down to business. But what business would that be? Of the 70 schema (proposed documents), the council fathers had seen only seven. Of those seven, by far the most important were those on divine revelation and on the liturgy.
MP Stephen Woodworth did what many thought was impossible – he put the issue of abortion back on the political front burner in Canada. By trying to establish a parliamentary committee that would look at medical and other evidence of whether the unborn child is human, he made the rights of the unborn a topic of discussion across Canada.
It didn't take long for the tide to turn at the Second Vatican Council. Curia officials had spent much of the 44 months between the day Pope John XXIII announced the council until it actually began planning for how they believed it should be carried out.
As the World Synod of Bishops on the New Evangelization opens Oct. 7, a pressing question awaits an answer: We know the synod will lead to yet another Vatican document on evangelization; will it also lead to a missionary outburst that challenges the deadening, dehumanizing secularism of the West? Will the synod's deliberations lead to a metanoia, a conversion, in our attitudes and actions, or will it remain business as usual?
When Blessed Pope John XXIII began his speech to open the Second Vatican Council on Oct. 11, 1962, many, perhaps most, of the bishops in St. Peter's Basilica expected to receive their marching orders for the council.

Troy Trojans (9-13)
@Western Kentucky Hilltoppers (12-11)
Thursday, January 31
E.A. Diddle Arena
Attendance: 4,244
Western Kentucky
Bowling Green, KY (Sports Network) - T.J. Price posted a team-best 17 points as the Western Kentucky Hilltoppers held on to defeat the Troy Trojans, 65-61, in a Sun Belt Conference bout at E.A. Diddle Arena.
Also scoring in double figures for the Hilltoppers (12-11, 6-6 Sun Belt) were Aleksejs Rostov and George Fant with 14 and 13 points, respectively, the latter also claiming a game-high nine rebounds as they snapped a three-game slide.
The Trojans (9-13, 4-7) were paced by Hunter Williams with 23 points, shooting 5-of-8 behind the 3-point line, while Ray Chambers produced 18 points as the team had a two-game win streak snapped.
Troy managed to move out to an eight-point lead less than five minutes into the meeting, yet even with 50.0 percent shooting from the floor in the first half the team was still behind by one at the break, 32-31.
In the second half WKU pushed the lead to as many as nine points midway through, but had to weather a series of 3-point tries late in order to capture the four-point win.
The Trojans were outscored at the free-throw line on the night, 12-3.

Loved it - just like a large Mint Slice biscuit! Used Peppermint essence and still tasted good.
I use 20cm diameter disc base and the pastry base recipe is too much for smaller base well, i am a first timer here.. totally newbie when i realize this recipe is too much for my container, i reduce the amount of white chocolate but i make a mistate! i didn't reduce the amount of cream *facepalm* as result, my white chocolate become very soft. I can't find creme de minte in my community, well i live in Batam, Indonesia, so i use peppermint essence and it works! overall, this recipe is easy and taste divinely delicious despite the waiting time. for all newbies, please do not make the same mistake i've done. Happy Baking!
The pastry base in this is great. A little time consuming but one of the best pastries I've made, it didn't shrink or crumble, and had a subtle flavour, well worth keeping the base recipe for other desserts. I used extra creme de menthe, but the mint flavour was very subtle, would probably try peppermint essence next time. This wasn't overly sweet which was good, and i used Cadbury cooking chocolate. Will make this again, as it was very easy, just took some time with the dough resting, and chocolate cooling, but worth it.
I made this cake as an attempt to impress friends and it worked! A few points to note - you need to be a chocolate lover to eat this one. I used all Lindt chocolate since its all about your ingredients and it was just like eating a massive chocolate mint slice! The time it says it takes to make it is very misleading if you don't read the recipe before starting. It requires 4 hours alone to refrigerate it so the 50 mins prep and 20mins cooking is totally inaccurate. I'd serve it with vanilla ice cream or cream to cut through the extreme chocolate flavour. Oh and I used peppermint essence instead of liqueur as I'm never going to use a whole bottle so thought it was a waste of $. Essence works perfectly well. We ate it over a few days and it was fine. Happy baking!
AMAZING... Tasted soo good, its all gone now but craving more. I have some chocolate ripple biscuits and think i'll try making another one but using a biscuit base instead
its just like an aero bar nice
Delicious. Not overwhelmingly minty but very nice mint flavour. Although the process is long, the actually preparation time is short. Yummy desert
this recipe worked great, easy to make and tasted fantastic, great for after a family meal
So it tasted amazing, i used about a teaspoon on Peppermint essence rather than the liquer. I usually just make my ganaches from my head but this time i followed the recipe. i found it didnt set as much as i wanted it to.. next time ill be adding more chocolate to the mix. But yeah it was super easy and yummy :)
So unbelievably good, I didn't feel the slightest bit guilty eating it (despite the filling being pretty much only chocolate and cream)! It's time consuming, but so worth it. I also used half a tsp peppermint essence instead of cream de menthe.
Truly indulgent and yummm
a lil time consuming but the end results is loveee... used half tsp of peppermint essence instead.
Super delicious and easy to make. It took longer to bake the crust though. I didn't find pouring cream, substituted with pouring custad and worked well. Yums!!
I made this tart as a birthday dessert for my husband's 40th - it was a HUGE hit. Absolutely delicious, and not difficult to make at all. The only issue I had was having to wait for the setting and cooling time. A necessary evil, I know!
Wonderful recipe! Tastes just like a mint slice biscuit. I will be making this again!!! I subsituted the creme de menthe for 1 tablespoon of peppermint essence. You could add a lot less if you didn't want such a strong mint flavour. The base was not hard just very time consuming. Probably best to prepare the base a day before to save on preparation time on the day that it is needed.
what about making a simple chocolate biscuit base (ie when you make a cheesecake?) Im going to try it soon wish me luck !!

- Question: Can anyone help me??? I have made the mint cream part and have had it in the fridge overnight (so plenty of time to set) however, it is far too runny to put into the tart base. The only change I made to the recipe was I added 1 1/2 T more of the crème de menthe. What do I do - any suggestions??

We are a young family who is excited to offer our local community fresh, healthy, and natural food. We both have been involved in agriculture our whole lives, but have only recently realized the benefits of sustainable and natural farming to ourselves, our animals, and the environment.
We have always raised cattle, but this year some of those cattle will be grassfed. We are pleased to offer our natural eggs from our pasture - raised hens. This spring and summer we will be offering our pasture raised broilers, and also in the fall our pasture raised turkeys. Orders for this year will be limited, since this will be our first year with the pastured meat. We also raise natural raised pork.
We are proud that we can grow majority of our own feed, grind and mix it on site. The remainder is bought locally.
During the summer months we sell our produce at the London Farmers Market. All of our produce is grown without any pesticides or herbicides. We grow heirloom tomatoes, sweet potatoes, kohlrabis, peppers, fresh herbs, zuchini, squash, cucumbers, and asparagus.

Hi Patrick!
Which early digital synth should that be? I'm missing the good old 8bit feel
to it. No honestly, I'm not really missing that. :-) and for an early digital
synth, the samples otherwise sound pretty good to. No the way, they are
configured (ADSR). :-)
Yet, this is the only way you can play mozart, he doesn't deserve better.
Not, that isn't well played, but the sounds show this piece for what it is.
:-) thanks fr sharing this, what a lark. :-)

New Revised Standard (NRS) | New International Version (NIV) |
1 When King Adoni-zedek of Jerusalem heard how Joshua had taken Ai, and had utterly destroyed it, doing to Ai and its king as he had done to Jericho and its king, and how the inhabitants of Gibeon had made peace with Israel and were among them, | 1 Now Adoni-Zedek king of Jerusalem heard that Joshua had taken Ai and totally destroyed it, doing to Ai and its king as he had done to Jericho and its king, and that the people of Gibeon had made a treaty of peace with Israel and were living near them. |
2 he became greatly frightened, because Gibeon was a large city, like one of the royal cities, and was larger than Ai, and all its men were warriors. | 2 He and his people were very much alarmed at this, because Gibeon was an important city, like one of the royal cities; it was larger than Ai, and all its men were good fighters. |
3 So King Adoni-zedek of Jerusalem sent a message to King Hoham of Hebron, to King Piram of Jarmuth, to King Japhia of Lachish, and to King Debir of Eglon, saying, | 3 So Adoni-Zedek king of Jerusalem appealed to Hoham king of Hebron, Piram king of Jarmuth, Japhia king of Lachish and Debir king of Eglon. |
4 "Come up and help me, and let us attack Gibeon; for it has made peace with Joshua and with the Israelites." | 4 "Come up and help me attack Gibeon," he said, "because it has made peace with Joshua and the Israelites." |
5 Then the five kings of the Amorites—the king of Jerusalem, the king of Hebron, the king of Jarmuth, the king of Lachish, and the king of Eglon—gathered their forces, and went up with all their armies and camped against Gibeon, and made war against it. | 5 Then the five kings of the Amorites--the kings of Jerusalem, Hebron, Jarmuth, Lachish and Eglon--joined forces. They moved up with all their troops and took up positions against Gibeon and attacked it. |
6 And the Gibeonites sent to Joshua at the camp in Gilgal, saying, "Do not abandon your servants; come up to us quickly, and save us, and help us; for all the kings of the Amorites who live in the hill country are gathered against us." | 6 The Gibeonites then sent word to Joshua in the camp at Gilgal: "Do not abandon your servants. Come up to us quickly and save us! Help us, because all the Amorite kings from the hill country have joined forces against us." |
7 So Joshua went up from Gilgal, he and all the fighting force with him, all the mighty warriors. | 7 So Joshua marched up from Gilgal with his entire army, including all the best fighting men. |
8 The Lord said to Joshua, "Do not fear them, for I have handed them over to you; not one of them shall stand before you." | 8 The LORD said to Joshua, "Do not be afraid of them; I have given them into your hand. Not one of them will be able to withstand you." |
9 So Joshua came upon them suddenly, having marched up all night from Gilgal. | 9 After an all-night march from Gilgal, Joshua took them by surprise. |
10 And the Lord threw them into a panic before Israel, who inflicted a great slaughter on them at Gibeon, chased them by the way of the ascent of Beth-horon, and struck them down as far as Azekah and Makkedah. | 10 The LORD threw them into confusion before Israel, who defeated them in a great victory at Gibeon. Israel pursued them along the road going up to Beth Horon and cut them down all the way to Azekah and Makkedah. |
11 As they fled before Israel, while they were going down the slope of Beth-horon, the Lord threw down huge stones from heaven on them as far as Azekah, and they died; there were more who died because of the hailstones than the Israelites killed with the sword. | 11 As they fled before Israel on the road down from Beth Horon to Azekah, the LORD hurled large hailstones down on them from the sky, and more of them died from the hailstones than were killed by the swords of the Israelites. |
12 On the day when the Lord gave the Amorites over to the Israelites, Joshua spoke to the Lord; and he said in the sight of Israel, "Sun, stand still at Gibeon, and Moon, in the valley of Aijalon." | 12 On the day the LORD gave the Amorites over to Israel, Joshua said to the LORD in the presence of Israel: "O sun, stand still over Gibeon, O moon, over the Valley of Aijalon." |
13 And the sun stood still, and the moon stopped, until the nation took vengeance on their enemies. Is this not written in the Book of Jashar? The sun stopped in midheaven, and did not hurry to set for about a whole day. | 13 So the sun stood still, and the moon stopped, till the nation avenged itself on its enemies, as it is written in the Book of Jashar. The sun stopped in the middle of the sky and delayed going down about a full day. |
14 There has been no day like it before or since, when the Lord heeded a human voice; for the Lord fought for Israel. | 14 There has never been a day like it before or since, a day when the LORD listened to a man. Surely the LORD was fighting for Israel! |
15 Then Joshua returned, and all Israel with him, to the camp at Gilgal. | 15 Then Joshua returned with all Israel to the camp at Gilgal. |

text: Art History Department Presents "The Vision Changes: The Eye Remembers" Through May 23 Kate Metzger March 2, 2011 Now through May 23, "The Vision Changes: The Eye Remembers" exhibit will be displayed in the O'Shaughnessy Educational Center lobby gallery. A reception will be held in the gallery from 5 to 7 p.m. Friday, March 4. Photo by Laura Thayer Featured artists include Zach Dolinaj, Amanda Herman, Olga Ivanova, Hernan Navarrete, Julie Risser and Laura Thayer. The six photographers in this exhibition are all notable for their willingness to surrender to the imperative to move. They have made significant alterations in their lives and they document, both in words and photographs, how the paths they chose changed their lives. Their vision may change but the eye remembers. The ability to look forward without denying the past is what makes these works of art, while expressive of a moment in time, redolent of the histories of the artists and their cultures. They are, in a way, contradictions that express growth and the continuity that growth brings. This exhibition is offered in conjunction with the 2011 Sacred Arts Festival and Interfaith Art pARTners. Please note: The gallery will be closed during spring break March 21 to 27.

US President Barack Obama urged India to promote religious tolerance and do more to combat global warming Tuesday as he wrapped up a visit aimed at forging a new friendship between the world's largest democracies. Speaking to an audience of mainly young people, Obama said the United States could be India's "best partner" but put pressure on his hosts over a range of political and social issues, including women's rights. The US president also said their countries could forge "one of the defining partnerships of this century," even as he warned the war against climate change would not "stand a chance" without India. The speech was the finale of a packed visit which has seen a dramatic upturn in an often troubled relationship, including the signing of a new "friendship" pact between Obama and Prime Minister Narendra Modi.

Byron | ||||||||||||||||||||||
| ||||||||||||||||||||||
The following year, he and Methos, as Dr Benjamin Adams, met Claire Clairmont in Switzerland and traveled to a house Byron has rented for the season. They encounter Hans Kershner, on the road. Methos pulled his carriage to a halt as he and Byron sense the other immortal. Byron tells Methos that he slept with Hans's wife. After a brief chase, Kershner's carriage turns over, tumbling him to the ground.
Later Byron, Methos, Mary Shelly, Claire, and Percy Shelly are having a party with Byron reading his poems. The famous challenge for a ghost story from each of the guests is issued. The next night, Hans comes to Byron's house to challenge Byron. Methos tells his student he isn't ready yet, but Byron cannot be restrained. Mary watches the fight, until Kershner finally runs Byron through. But Byron yanks another sword from his cane and stabs Kershner, then beheads him with his primary blade.
Mary runs forward, shocked, as Methos catches Byron and lowers him to the ground. Then he grabs her and pulls her back away from the body as the Quickening begins. While Mary watches terrified, as lightning crawls over Byron's body, making his limbs twitch and lift. The Quickening fades, and Byron is alive again as Mary and Methos watch. She demands an explanation, and Methos tells her that they are immortal, but that it must remain a secret. Mary understands instantly: "Or you would be hunted." Methos agrees: "For the perversion of nature that we are."
Mary's compassion is roused, "Poor tormented creature. The sad hero of a never-ending story. Resurrected by lightning to eternal life. To eternal lonliness." From this beginning came the inspiration for her masterpiece, Frankenstein: The Modern Prometheus.
By 1997, Byron is a famous rockstar who uses any and all drugs to excess in order to stave off bordedom. He runs into Methos and Duncan at a club and meets Mike Paladini, a guitarist and protege of Joe's. Joe is amazed that Byron is the actual Lord Byron and that Methos had never mentioned him. Byron acts as a Siren song to Mike, however, and the young guitarist follows him home to become immersed in Byrons catostrophic drug habits, which kill Mike within days. Furious with the reckless waste of life and talent, MacLeod is determined to challenge Byron.
Methos meets Byron in his dressing room and warns him that MacLeod is coming for him, and advises him to skip town, but Byron refuses. Methos then tries to convince MacLeod not to destroy Bryon, "Mac, wait! Think. Think about the poetry. Think about the music that he's made. Think about the music that he will still make. You're going to kill all that as well?" MacLeod's only response is "And what about Mike? What music could he have made?" Methos cannot answer, and steps aside.
Byron accepts MacLeod's challenge and in the cellars of the venue, he loses his head to the highlander. Methos, unhappy, acknowledges that "His life had become one long tragedy." To which Duncan replies, "We all know how those end."
As the episode ends, we hear Byrons final epitaph. "My task is done, my song has ceased, my theme has died into an echo. It is fit".
Note: The music in episode attributed to Byron and his band was actually provided by Marcus Testory (who played Caspian) and his band M.E.L.T.

A gaggle of suburban mayors and city councils has enthusiastically endorsed the proposal, hoping it will assist their own development plans. Yet concern over whether GTR pushes LoDo at the expense of the suburbs (watch for Union Station to become the hub of the universe if the plan passes) is one reason officials in Boulder, Adams County, Jefferson County and otheroutlying areas have been asking what's in it for them.
The picture in the northern suburbs is particularly uncertain, since those communities could end up with some light rail in addition to the existing HOV lanes on I-25--a situation not unlike the one emerging in the Southwest Corridor, where HOV lanes on Santa Fe will adjoin a light-rail line that's also in the plan, despite the fact that federal funding has already been promised for the southwest rail line.
"RTD stands for the Redundantly Taxed District," quips boardmember Caldara, whose district includes Boulder. "How can I tell people to vote for something that I can't describe?"
Caldara jokes that RTD also stands for "Road to Denver"--that the agency continues to push the hub-and-spoke concept even though the data shows that most trips are suburb-to-suburb rather than in and out of the central business district. Although RTD claims to carry a quarter of all home-to-work trips to downtown, its share of all work trips in the region is less than 4 percent. Adding more express buses to RTD's much-spurned suburban service isn't likely to solve the growing problem of folks living at one edge of the subdivision sprawl and commuting to the other.
8. How convenient will it be?
The Spin: Very. Will cut travel times in half in some major corridors.
The Counterspin: Too many stops + too many transfers = too much hassle.
The Facts: In theory, RTD's light-rail trains have the horses to go 55 miles per hour. In practice, they average less than 15 miles per hour. But that's because the existing line travels the most congested, traffic-light-infested area of the planned system. The agency estimates that in the year 2020, a light-rail commute from Lincoln Avenue in Douglas County to the 16th Street Mall downtown will take 35 minutes, compared to 66 minutes by automobile.
That's one argument for rapid transit along south I-25, at least; the numbers for rail travel from Littleton to downtown are also impressive. But along routes that involve more surface streets and frequent stops, light rail's travel-time advantage diminishes to the point where it's hardly a factor; will people really give up the convenience of their cars to save less than ten minutes in traffic?
The still-unsettled mix of technologies in the plan could also discourage riders by multiplying the number of transfers required to complete a trip. Taking transit to DIA is already a complicated procedure; imagine hauling your bags (by car or bus) to a light-rail station in Littleton, boarding the train, weaving through the 'burbs and downtown--and then transferring to a diesel train to complete the journey. Lack of convenience and flexibility is one of the primary reasons Americans shun public transit, and it seems unlikely that Guide the Ride will woo most Denver commuters, who prefer a lot of both.
9. Has this worked anywhere else?
The Spin: Look at St. Louis.
The Counterspin: Look at Portland.
The Facts: Experts say that fixed-guideway transit systems tend to work best in cities with much higher population densities than Denver's, such as the aging but heavily used subways in New York and the BART system in San Francisco. Most of the cities that have jumped on the light-rail bandwagon in the past two decades have seen their systems cost far more to build and operate than projected, while ridership figures have failed to meet expectations.
St. Louis is often touted as a light-rail success story; its fifteen-mile line carries more passengers than predicted and is being expanded into communities across the Mississippi.
But St. Louis's experience is unique in many ways. The current line was financed largely through federal funds and was able to take advantage of an existing rail-and-tunnel infrastructure that allows it to move speedily, away from surface traffic.
Portland may provide a better indicator of how light rail fares in cities like Denver. At first glance, its fifteen-mile line between the eastern suburbs and downtown looks like a success, too; it averages close to 30,000 passengers a day, has spurred development along the line, and a western extension is scheduled to open next year. But local critics argue that commuters are worse off because express bus service along the corridor was "cannibalized" to add feeder buses that direct people onto the train--which averages only nineteen miles per hour and makes too many stops to offer an efficient commute. And even when operating at capacity during rush hour, the train has failed to have any significant impact on traffic congestion. Voters have turned down two efforts to add north-south routes to the line.
"They never state any more that this is congestion relief," says John Charles, environmental policy director at Portland's Cascade Policy Institute. "They know it's not true."
Charles says he was a light-rail supporter until he became a regular rider on the line and discovered that "actually commuting by rail is not nearly as nice as it seems when you're just thinking about it." He now takes an express bus to work, operated by another transit agency, and gets downtown ahead of the train.

Stan I love Leonards Work for his time and what he put into it was truly amazing. Just think he didn't have a computer. Also when I purchased the Bible from Debbie Wilson I had no Idea where it was going to take me. Among the Items I purchased from her were documents from Leonard L. Barnhill. I found his initial letters funny and cute. So don't let the curls get to you. I am down loading in a separate blog all the death records that concern Barnhill's from South Caroline, Missouri and Kentucky. Also I have been placing Draft Cards From WWI on the Barnhills and varations of spellings. I am not a celebrity Genealogist. However, celebrities are coming to me. The Bible that Debbie had held secrets and I used my genealogy ability to unlock all of its hidden secrets and treasures. I just received 4 more pages from a John Varne who is related to Oliver Paul Barnhill through his Great Uncle James Barnhill who married Hannah Boone. Genealogy is so fun to work and its the stories that I get and the photo's. Not all is honky dory with that part of the Barnhill family. As we speak one them is currently being disbarred from practicing law in New Hampshire. New Hampshire is not kind to corrupt people they show all trials on the Web. Also Leonard's father death record is located on line through Missouri. Just like I said what Leonard did was a amazing and he had a bit of sense of humor in his work. Jeannette PS Stan without us people working Genealogy History would hurt. Because people tend to forget the little people and the little people is what build this couuntry. Leonard peserved history that he spent money putting it together for us to read and go over it. Its like he left us history. And for that we should be in his debt and my God Bless his soul and for him for what he did. |
