My review of the Para-Ordinance Warthog
Paras Tiny 1911
What can I say about Para-Ordinance that has not already been said? Writers frequently wax-poetic about the quality and reliability of Paras pistols. It is hard to argue the success of Para, having won four consecutive Gunny awards from the venerated editors of Guns and Ammo. Now, with the introduction of the Warthog, Para is taking a serious stab at the CCW market, with which the esteemed readers of this magazine are most concerned.
The problem has been that to make a 1911 that was concealable you lost capacity. For example, Kimbers fine Ultra Carry II is limited to 6+1 rounds which is the same as or less than some revolvers. In the not so distant past we had to sacrifice stopping power to have a pistol that could be concealed while having a capacity greater than a revolver. With this in mind I started my search. I was looking for a gun with stopping power, concealability, and capacity; this was no short order.
Most of us know the virtues of the .45ACP as a cartridge and the 1911 style pistol which is world renowned for its stopping power. The limitation when thinking about concealed carry has always been its size and weight. Most of us would prefer not to carry a full-sized 36 ounce 8.5 inch long GI .45. I will bet that we would all like to carry the stopping power afforded by such a pistol though.
Many of us have had to scale back our expectations when it came to our concealed carry weapon. If you live in a particularly hot environment this is even more likely. For this reason NAA and Kel-tec owe their success. While their guns are extremely concealable the cartridges that they fire leave a lot to be desired. The .32 and the .380 just do not pack enough punch to provide much comfort. The .25 is an even poorer choice. As Massad Ayoob has been known to say The .25 is what you carry when you cant carry a gun.
After much searching and refusing to trust my life with anything less then a .40 S&W I found the Para-Ordinance Warthog. I was already familiar with Para as I am the proud owner of a P14-45. I was already in love with the 1911 style of pistol, and in my mind nothing provides a better first shot than the single action auto.
Keeping in mind the aforementioned criteria, it is obvious why I chose the Warthog. This pistol has it all. It has the single action trigger, the high capacity 10 round magazine, and the concealability I was seeking. The Warthog is chambered for .45ACP a round known for its stopping power. Para also installed a match grade trigger and a spurred competition hammer. This provided not only greater accuracy but aesthetic appeal.
The history behind the 1911 is often over looked and is the story of a great man, John Moses Browning. The US Army learning from experience in the Philippines decided their .38 revolvers were not sufficient to stop a man. They put out a request for an autoloading pistol in .45 caliber. Browning having developed an autoloading pistol in .38 caliber decided to adapt it to meet the Army request with a 230 grain FMJ of his own design. After a grueling 6000 round torture test the contract was awarded to Colt and John Moses Browning over the offering by Savage Arms. Thus began the obsession that we in the United States and really the world over, have had with this classic combat pistol.
Today, what we refer to as the 1911 is actually the 1911A1. After World War I some minor changes were made, the most obvious being the enlargement of the grip safetys dovetail. This prevented the painful pinching of the thumb that was common. Other feature changes were an enlarging of the front sight, shorter trigger, arched spring housing, and longer hammer spur. These changes were made to add greater reliability and combat effectiveness.
What Para has done was improve upon an already grand design. The Warthog has an extended manual thumb safety and an internal firing pin safety. Para has also updated this pistol with their new Para Power Extractor for increased reliability. Para has coated the Warthog with Paras Para-Kote black matte finish and added 3-dot sights. The Warthog is beautifully accented with stainless steel magazine release, slide release, hammer spur, and grip safety. There is no doubt the Warthog is a sexy pistol unlike its animal namesake. For those of you who have to have it all Para now offers the Stealth Warthog. The Stealth Warthog, commonly referred to as the NightHawg, is the same platform as the Warthog, but with the addition of tritium night sights and all parts are coated in the non-reflective Para-Kote. I chose the Warthog specifically because the stainless steel accents looked so much better to me.
The Warthog is a well balanced pistol that feels very natural in your hand. While the grip is shorter than a standard 1911, even my big paws can get a good grip on the gun. The Warthog has the feeling of a much larger gun yet is supremely concealable. In my testing I carried the Warthog in a Bianchi Model 82 for the Colt Officer 1911. I found that this setup provided the security of Bianchis Auto Retentiontm concept with the quick access of a standard open top holster. While wearing a loose T-Shirt or a light jacket the Warthog disappeared with nary a worry of printing. With an inside the waistband holster this pistol would disappear in all but the most skin tight of clothing.
The biggest question I hear is How does it shoot? I am happy to report that the Warthog shoots like a dream. I am a huge fan of 1911 style pistols, but even I had questions as to how a 24 ounce 1911 would handle. For my testing I used Winchester White Box 230 grain FMJ, PMC 230 grain FMJ, and Speer Gold Dot 200 grain +P GDHP. All the ammo cycled perfectly, without a hiccup. While 250 rounds is hardly a torture test it gave me a good idea of what to expect from this little beauty. At ten yards the Warthog was giving me groupings of 1.5 consistently. While that will not win you the IPSC National Championships, it will do a great job in a defensive situation, for which the Warthog is intended.
The sights on the Warthog are standard 3-dot low mount sights. These provide an excellent sight picture and allow for a quick aim when unholstered. The ejection port on the Warthog allowed spent casings to be extracted effectively and the shells shot about 6 feet to the right rear. This speaks to the power of the new extraction system that Para has dubbed the Para Power Extractor. I found that this diminutive pistol extracts better than my P-14 with the standard extractor.
Recoil was also a concern of mine when I purchased this gun. Would the diminutive size of this 1911 make the recoil of the .45ACP unbearable? Somehow the Para engineers have overcome this, to provide the Warthog with a recoil signature well below expectations, and only slightly greater than its bigger brother, the P-14. Muzzle flip was greater than a full sized .45, this is to be expected and it is controllable. Once fired it is quick to get back on target for a follow up shot.
The takedown of this pistol requires no tools and is accomplished with ease. The recoil spring is reminiscent of the captive spring design of my Springfield Armory XD 9 subcompact. There is no need to deal with a barrel bushing as with your average 1911 style pistol. The recoil spring plug snaps into the slide and can be removed with your thumb. The only tricky part in the takedown and the reassembly is that the slide must be held back with your hand while you remove or reinsert the slide stop. This requires some hand strength and a grip I refer to as the Vulcan death grip. Once you have done this a time or two though it really isnt a problem. Disassembly takes about 15 seconds and reassembly takes about double that.
Overall the Para-Ordinance Warthog is a concealed carry 1911 with sex appeal. In the past, concealablity meant the sacrifice of stopping power, but with the Warthog that sacrifice is no longer required. Para has given the concealed carry community a no compromises pistol with the size of a Chihuahua with the bite of a Doberman Pincer, and in a concealed carry pistol what more can you really ask for?
So the next time you are in the market for a concealed carry weapon, I urge you to take a look at the Para Ordinance Warthog or Stealth Warthog. These two pistols provide options that were not available in until recently. One thing is for sure, this is not your grandfathers 1911.

Today I want to share with you the reason why I hardly have to weed our vegetable garden at all through the growing season, but before I show you how I manage this, here is a little reminder of what the beds looked like in March when I discussed designing a garden for easy care:
The traditional way of dealing with all these weeds that grow in the winter is to till and rake, but you may remember I don't till the ground for a variety of reasons. Instead, in February or March (somebody who's on the ball could even do it in the fall after harvest…), I throw a piece of black plastic over the bed.
Then time, sun and heat do their magic, and by the time I am able to plant, I pull back the plastic and it looks like this:
Now please don't get all in a pickle over the fact that it's not the EXACT bed in the before picture above – honestly, they both looked the same, but I needed to plant this bed first, so it is the one in the pictures. You can see in the upper part of the picture, the exact same bed is still covered with plastic- but by the end of the post, it is planted, too.
Then I add a fresh layer of compost to the bed and rake it smooth. I do this every year to build the soil and I just leave it on top. When I dig the furrows and holes, it gets mixed in some.
I want to emphasize that I have never tilled these beds- and they were pasture with that awful pasture grass when we moved here. The plants have always done well and I rotate the crops so that the corn usually follows the legumes (which fix nitrogen and enriches the soil).
After that preparation, I plant. Since this is a bed for beans (green and dry), cukes and squash, I set up my trellises first, then plant.
I do use an inoculant for the beans. It's supposed to help them fix the nitrogen in the soil. I like the granulated kind you just sprinkle in the furrows versus the powder that needs to be applied to wet bean seeds.
I lay the soaker hose, and in this case have put a piece of fencing over some of my beans to try and deter any birds that might want to find what I've just planted. Watering with the soaker hoses puts the water where I want it- not in the space between plants where weeds want to grow- so it's a major player in keeping weeding to a minimum.
This is linked to Works For Me Wednesday and Thrifty Decor Chick.
we're starting our garden now, too. exciting:)
i like your bean poles. the deer got all of ours last year (our first year), but this year, we're putting up a tall fence and hopefully we'll have beans.
Ah, the deer. Yes, we are putting up a tall fence, too. While they've not gotten all the beans, they have gotten way too many so our 4-ft fence is going to be replaces with a 7-footer.
Hi, I jsut found your blog through Ann's "make the best of things" blog. I'm glad I found you! I have begun changing over to a no till method of gardening as well. Have your heard of Lasanga Gardening? It is working well for me since you build up and we live on a pile of rocks! lol I have been blogging about my garden lately as it seems to be where I am spending alot of time! Please stop by if you have a minute. As for the deer, a slice or two of Irish Spring soap tied to a stake in a knee hi stocking has repelled them from my garden and we live in the woods! What is in the paths of your garden?
Sharon -
Sharon- Thank you! I wish you had left your blog name so I could take a look at your garden or respond. Maybe you'll link up to the Tuesday Garden Parties so we'll get to see your garden and hear your ideas? Yes, what I do is similar to lasange gardening, I just don't do as many layers, but that book and "Weedless Gardening" were some inspirations for me. I have gravel in my paths. (Glad the soap worked for you!)
I love this idea! I'm all about less work when it comes to the garden! Not that I don't enjoy gardening! I can't think of a better way to spend time – but I can think of something better to do in the garden then weeding!
Last year, for an experiment we tried leaving one of our garden plots untilled. We were only partly pleased with the result. I'm going to read some more of your posts and see if I can learn more!
Gina -
Team- we buy it on a roll (there are different lengths) and it's around the construction materials. There are different thickness and the price is more as the thickness goes up. We usually cheap out and get the thinnest, but maybe they'd last longer? Kind of have to decided on your own there.
Is there a certain kind/gauge of black plastic? Do you buy it on roll? In the paint section of the hardware store?
Valerie -
Thank you for your advise!! I'm 7 months pregnant and about to, finally, START this years crops. Note… it's June! Going to be difficult anyhow, but I'm up for the challenge!
what a wonderful SHARE! I'm in love with the idea of having less weeds! I so wish I could pin to pinterest for my future reference! Ever thought of turning that on?
You have a very nice garden. I thought I read something in your post about a trellis for squash – do your squash grow up? Our squash plants are taking over the back yard – not very happy with that.
I grow cucumbers up a trellis (which I wrote about here: http://anoregoncottage.com/2011/08/five-reasons-to-grow-cucumbers-on.html), but not the squash. I only grow zucchini, and it would get too large for me to worry about a trellis.
Hi, Jamie…what sizes are your beds, and how many do you have? We are moving back to our 10 acres soon, and the garden will need a lot of work. I'm actually in the process of planting berries around the perimeter….Gooseberries, Blackberries, Blueberries, and maybe some Logan berries and black raspberries. My garden spot is about a half acre square. Want to leave the middle open for beds, hence the berries on the perimeter. Wanting to find a permanent place for rhubarb and asparagus…going to be running out room for my veggies! Oh, and I'm seriously thinking about the newspapers and compost for the berries…love all the information you share!

The Hairy Guy Gets His Due...,
By Bindy Sue Frřnkünschtein "bigfootsalienbaby" (under the rubble) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Wolf Man - The Legacy Collection (The Wolf Man / Werewolf of London / Frankenstein Meets the Wolf Man / She-Wolf of London) (DVD)
Another great collection from Universal! This time, it's the Wolf Man who gets the star treatment. In the original WOLF MAN, Lon Chaney jr. is Lawrence Talbott, son of sir Jonathon Talbott (Claude Raines). Larry gets bitten by a werewolf (Bela Lugosi) and starts the whole full-moon-rampage-thing. A classic. Next up is FRANKENSTEIN MEETS THE WOLF MAN. Lon jr. returns as lycanthropic Larry Talbott, trying to find a way to be destroyed, thus ending his torment. Ends in the legendary battle between the Wolf Man and Frankenstein's monster! Third, we have SHE WOLF OF LONDON, starring June Lockhart as a woman who is either a murderous beast, or is being framed in a hideous plot to drive her insane. Lockhart is great, showing a charm and innocense that make SWOL more than just another gothic mystery. Lastly, we get WEREWOLF OF LONDON, about a botonist attacked by a werewolf while attempting bring a rare tibeten flower back to London. This flower only blooms at night, during the full moon, and can keep a man from tansforming into a werewolf. This should help our hero, but alas, the werewolf who bit him is now in London too, seeking to have the flower for himself! Not a bad entry in the wolftale anthology. Buy this now, before Universal gets stingy again! Highly recommended...

An impressive set of four Universal werewolf classics,
By Daniel Jolley "darkgenius" (Shelby, North Carolina USA) - See all my reviews (TOP 50 REVIEWER) (REAL NAME)
This review is from: The Wolf Man - The Legacy Collection (The Wolf Man / Werewolf of London / Frankenstein Meets the Wolf Man / She-Wolf of London) (DVD)
I had never really thought of The Wolf Man as being in the same league as Dracula and Frankenstein's Monster - I was wrong. Watching Lon Chaney, Jr.'s portrayal of Larry Talbot in The Wolf Man and Frankenstein Meets the Wolf Man has opened my eyes. Chaney's Wolf Man is by far the most sympathetic of Universal's three major monsters. Dracula loves being Dracula, Frankenstein's monster is a full-time monster made out of dubious body parts, yet Larry Talbot is a victim of cruel fate. Rushing in to help a damsel in distress, he sustains a bite from a werewolf - hardly the type of reward a hero deserves. Doing the things a werewolf does is bad enough, but Talbot knows he is a werewolf and has to spend all of his normal waking hours wallowing in mental agony, knowing he can do nothing to contain the hairy monster lurking within. Beginning with his resurrection in Frankenstein Meets the Wolf Man, Talbot's overriding ambition and sole wish is to die and be freed from the curse forever, yet he now knows he can never die- not by conventional means, anyway. He truly is a lost soul trapped in a nightmare from which there seems to be no escape. This was the role Chaney was born to play, and he delivered one amazing performance after another in his five werewolf films. The Wolf Man Legacy Collection contains only two of them, the original The Wolf Man from 1941 and the sequel/monster crossover film Frankenstein Meets the Wolf Man (1942). Chaney's Wolf Man also appears in House of Frankenstein and House of Dracula, each of which can be found on the Frankenstein and Dracula Legacy Collections, respectively.
The Wolf Man has exerted a huge influence on the art of horror for over six decades now, thanks to the heralded make-up prowess of Jack Pierce, the tight and powerful script of Curt Siodmak, some impressive photography work, a moving musical score, and wonderful performances from a truly stellar cast of actors and actresses (including Claude Raines in the role of Larry Talbot's father, Maria Ouspenskava as the gypsy woman and surrogate mother figure to Larry, and the great Bela Lugosi in a somewhat minor yet crucial role). Chaney's Wolf Man appearance is amazingly vivid and, one supposes, somewhat frightening to moviegoers of the early 1940s. His emotional performance adds to his character's tragic status; his strange and slightly awkward manner, tempered by a sort of gentle slowness always leaves me mesmerized. With the success of The Wolf Man in 1941, it didn't take Universal long to trot out a sequel; the following year, Frankenstein Meets the Wolf Man not only capitalized on the success of everybody's favorite werewolf, it also brought in Frankenstein's monster, thus becoming one of the first Universal monster cross-over films. Lon Chaney, Jr., returns as the ill-fated Larry Talbot, and the legendary Bela Lugosi dons the makeup of the Frankenstein monster - this fact alone makes the film intriguing. Talbot, now afraid he cannot die, longs to be killed and put out of his misery. He ends up at the castle of Frankenstein, where a helpful young doctor promises to help him and destroy Frankenstein's monster in the process - things don't quite work out that way, and the film ends with a monster grudge match between the Wolf Man and Frankenstein's Monster. Werewolf of London (1935) and She-Wolf of London (1946) could not be more different, and both are unmistakably distinct from the Universal werewolf films starring Lon Chaney, Jr., yet I think they both work marvelously. Many fans don't care for them, especially She-Wolf in London, but I find both films quite compelling. They differ significantly from the storyline running through Chaney's Wolf Man films, but these two films have a great deal of their own to offer fans. Often overlooked and unduly dismissed by some reviewers and horror fans, these are two classic werewolf films. In terms of extras, you get trailers for three of the four films, a truly excellent commentary of The Wolf Man by film historian Tom Weaver, a well-made 1999 documentary called Monster By Moonlight, and comments on the Wolf Man character by Van Helsing director Stephen Sommers. With only four movies and relatively few extras, The Wolf Man Legacy Collection falls a little short in the value department compared to the Dracula and Frankenstein Legacy Collection sets, but nothing can change the fact that this is must-have material for fans of classic horror movies.

Definately worth the rather low price,
This review is from: The Wolf Man - The Legacy Collection (The Wolf Man / Werewolf of London / Frankenstein Meets the Wolf Man / She-Wolf of London) (DVD)
O.k., I'm not a big fan of old monster movies, but 30 bucks for four, oh yeah. The extras are definately good too, giving a good deal of information on the Wolfman, and monsters in general. Here are my thoughts on the movies individually:
The Wolfman: Reasonably good, although like all these movies it's very short and the guy doesn't even become a werewolf until it's half over. It becomes incredible to explain about the making, and tell alot of information about the various versions of the movie's script (there were three; one in 1932 that wasn't made because it would have offended Catholics, one that was the script until weeks before shooting and would have left the question of whether or not Larry (Gill not Talbot in this version) was turning into a wolf open (you only saw the wolf as a reflection through Larry's eyes), and the one that was made. He also points out the plotholes (probably left-overs from script changes). There are a good number of holes to laugh at, but I don't blame them since this was probably done on the budget of two or three "Twilight Zone" episodes. Frankenstein Meets the Wolf Man: This is actually better in some ways than the original. While the idea sounds rediculous, and the excuse for the final battle seems silly, the opening is actually spookier (I won't say "scarier" because nothing in any of these movies are truly scary in our world) than the original. She-Wolf of London: This is not a Werewolf movie. It's a murder-mystery in which the murderor is trying to convince a girl she's turning into a Werewolf because the girl believes her family is cursed. While I suppose the various instances in which it was implied she was a werewolf could be explained as part of an elaborate scheme, I can't help but think this was suppose to be more along the lines of the second aforementioned "Wolfman" script until the end when you saw the She-Wolf (or maybe even only saw it as a reflection), but the studio got cheap and wouldn't buy the make-up. I can't prove that, but I suspect it. I did not like this movie, but I don't blame them for having a filler(the only movies with the actual Wolfman are either in this set, in another Monster Legacy set, or "Abbot and Castello mee Frankenstein" which both doesn't have the Wolfman name in the title and was a comedy; the only real other black-and-white Werewolf movie I guess they had was "Werewolf of London"). Werewolf of London: Not much to say about this, it was OK, but I never really got into it.

Lon Chaney Jr.'s Finest Hour,
By A Customer
This review is from: The Wolf Man - The Legacy Collection (The Wolf Man / Werewolf of London / Frankenstein Meets the Wolf Man / She-Wolf of London) (DVD)
Lon Chaney Jr.'s finest hour (other than his performance as Lenny in the Hal Roach production of "Of Mice and Men") came as the character he used to call "my baby" -- the Wolfman. Thanks to the great make-up artist Jack Pierce, Chaney's transformations from luckless wolfbite victim Lawrence Talbot into the Wolfman were defining moments in the history of screen special effects. But most importantly for Chaney, who spent much of his career standing in the shadow of his famous father and following up portrayals by Karloff and Lugosi by playing variations on Dracula, the Frankenstein Monster or the Mummy, the Wolfman character was truly his, and it looks like he will remain the only actor to portray both man and creature, as the Wolfman in the upcoming "Van Helsing" is noticeably a CGI beastie.
Both "The Wolfman" and "Frankenstien vs. the Wolfman" are must haves for fans of classic Universal horror (the added bonus being that in the latter, you also get Bela Lugosi's one turn as the Frankenstein monster, which isn't definitive but is still interesting). Less successful but still interesting is "Werewolf of London," a sort of dry-run for "The Wolfman" starring idiosyncratic actor Henry Hull. This reviewer hasn't seen "She-wolf of London," and as an avid monster film fan, he does not believe this to be a good sign. Unfortunately, "The Wolfman's" status as a slightly b-team monster makes it impossible for Universal to put all his "golden era" performances in one place, as Chaney's "baby" always supported other more well known "names" in his latter appearances, and those names have box sets of their own where his appearances reside. For more of Chaney as the Wolfman, get the "House of..." movies ("House of Frankenstein" and "House of Dracula" are both in the respective "Legacy" editions of their own) and the hilarious "Abbott and Costello Meet Frankenstein," in which Chaney proves he could pull off comedy as well as drama by frequent "straight man" bits opposite Lou Costello. Some purists view the Abbott and Costello picture as a shameful finale to the great horror cycle, but it's actually a film that works both as a monster film and as slapstick comedy, and a very fine piece of work it is too. It was Jerry Garcia's favorite movie -- how much more of an endorsement do you need?

Wolfman: The Legacy Collection,
By John huddleston (Pine Bluff, Ar USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Wolf Man - The Legacy Collection (The Wolf Man / Werewolf of London / Frankenstein Meets the Wolf Man / She-Wolf of London) (DVD)
First of all, the credit given to Claude Rains is incorrect. Lon Chaney Jr. is the actor to whom the credit is due. Although Henry Hull made the transformation first in "Werewolf of London" (1935), almost everyone agrees that Chaney's 1941 version "The Wolf Man" is the true origin of the film iconization of the character. The deep tragedy in Chaney's portrayl is nothing short of brilliant.
Frankenstein meets The Wolfman is a moderate film, save Lugosi's performance of the Frankenstein monster, whose facial expressions so closley mimic that of his Dracula (1931), that it seems as though the two characters have merged in a shorter less vivid one. She-of London is probabaly my least favorite of the four, but all-in-all the performances are fairly solid. The DVD collection is a must-have for fans of the period and genre. It is beautifully packaged and has cool and interesting extras.

Where It All Began ... ...,
This review is from: The Wolf Man - The Legacy Collection (The Wolf Man / Werewolf of London / Frankenstein Meets the Wolf Man / She-Wolf of London) (DVD)
Great classic stuff here. In my mind Lon Chaney Jr. was always my favorite Wolfman. You really feel sorry for Lawrence Stewart Talbot being cursed with lycanthropy. In this set you get:
1) The Werewolf of London (1935) 2) The Wolfman (1941) 3) Frankenstein Meets The Wolfman (1943) By the way is actually a sequel to both The Wolfman (1941) and The Ghost of Frankenstein (1942), continuity wise. 4) She-Wolf of London (1946) 5) a 45 minute documentary, Monster By Moonlight. Pretty much a history of Universal's Wolfman mixed with actual Werewolf lore. 6) Tom Weaver does commentary on a separate audio track of The Wolfman (1941). Extremely interesting P.O.V.. 7) A neat peek at Van Helsing's homage to Universal's classic Wolfman. All in all I really enjoyed this set. I just can't wait until Universal raids their Atomic Age Monster vaults like this. Til' then, ENJOY.

This is the story of my collection, representing the mystery and charm of this country and its people, where there are no limitations to creativity and where personalities shine. The movement of the landscape is as soft as the fabrics I have chosen, the colors of the land are as vivid as the jewels tones in each of my unique pieces and where we are free to wear what we want and where we want, there are no rules, just use your imagination.
This is me, this is who I am…..dare to dream.

Vogue Fashion Dubai Experience
I had the pleasure of attending the talks hosted by Vogue Fashion Experience Dubai end of October 2014 with amazing speakers brought to us by Vogue Italia.
My favorite talks where the ones by Franca Sozanni, Sara Maino, Philipp Plein and Peter Dundas. Others I truly enjoyed as well were of Alberta Ferretti as well as Roberto Cavalli.
To give you a brief overview on how that goes, designers from around the world apply to a competition for scouting talents organized by Vogue Italia in collaboration with Emaar, who in their turn, select their favourite ones and then showcase these designers collections on the catwalk of The Dubai Mall at the event called Vogue Fashion Dubai Experience. After the shows, the public is invited to view these designers collections and attend the talks led by international fashion icons.
Below are some looks from the fashion shows that took place, among whom is Stella Jeans, an incredible talent to watch:

Loving Tommy Hilfiger AW15 collection!
The Tommy Hilfiger are opening their flagship store at Mall of the Emirates in Dubai, UAE, beginning November 1, 2014. I'm pleased to have seen and tested a part of the Hilfiger Collection where its pieces are made with luxurious and premium quality textiles, such as Mohair and wool, and designs manufactured in Italy.
Here are some of my favorite looks, where I particularly love the styling:
"I am excited to introduce Hilfiger Collection in the Middle East at our Mall of the Emirates store," said Tommy Hilfiger. "Our consumers in the Middle East have always appreciated the quality, luxury, versatility and sophistication of our designs. Hilfiger Collection introduces an elevated interpretation of our 'classic American cool' spirit that further emphasizes our presence in the market as a premium designer brand."
The Hilfiger Collection is inspired by the great American outdoors, all evident in the collection's luxurious reinterpretation for today's adventurous young woman. The looks features an eclectic mix of technical mountaineering gear, western workwear and saturated plaids that take on a youthful, bohemian sensibility when mixed with rich velvet, suede, and leather. Rugged performance materials are used to create classic silhouettes for a look that's tech meets trad with an adventure-ready spirit. This is one of my favorite Hilfiger collections to date.

Nolan Ryan, class favorite
Rangers' Hall shoo-in has won over DFW fans with distinguished service time
By Richard Durrett
ARLINGTON, Texas -- Nolan Ryan never figured he'd play five seasons for the Texas Rangers, let alone oversee a franchise that played in the World Series for the first time.
"When I came here, I asked for a one-year contract and the ballclub asked for the option on the second year and I felt like if they wanted that option, I would consider that and do it, not thinking I would be here five years," Ryan said. "I felt like when I came here being only a one-year deal, I felt like no-hitters was probably not part of my career from then on."
But they were. Ryan threw two of them in a Rangers uniform, the MLB-record sixth and seventh of his career. His final one was May 1, 1991, against Toronto in front of the hometown fans. He became the first and only pitcher in baseball history to record 5,000 strikeouts with Oakland's Rickey Henderson as the victim at Arlington Stadium on Aug. 22, 1989. He won his 300th game in his second season in Texas and threw his final pitch on Sept. 22, 1993, at age 46.
Whenever Ryan pitched, ticket sales in Arlington went up. His presence on the club helped give the Rangers national prominence. You never knew if you'd see a no-hitter, a one-hitter (he threw 12 of those in his career, three with Texas) or a memorable headlock of Robin Ventura.
And when Ryan was inducted into the National Baseball Hall of Fame on July 25, 1999, his plaque showed his likeness wearing a Rangers cap.
"The fans were very supportive of me when I came here," Ryan said. "I enjoy North Texas and the lifestyle here. I just appreciate the way I was received here coming from Houston and the fact that I was here only five years, but they supported me."
That support has made him one of the two most popular choices in the ESPN Dallas Hall of Fame tally, where he's engaged in a battle for the top spot with former Dallas Cowboys running back and NFL all-time rushing leader Emmitt Smith heading into the weekend.
The Hall of Fame panel discusses the changing of the guard in the DFW landscape. Watch
Photo gallery
Check out the 20 candidates for the ESPN Dallas Hall of Fame: Gallery
Ryan is a nominee for more than just his on-field accomplishments. He stayed involved in the organization for a decade after his retirement as part of a personal services contract but branched out to other ventures. He was a special assistant to the general manager with the Houston Astros for four seasons before joining Texas again as club president.
Since 2008, when Ryan was named president, the club's attendance has increased each season, the team has had unprecedented success and he's hoisted the American League championship trophy in helping oversee the club's first appearance in the World Series in 2010.
"That was special because when you look at that, there so many people that played a role in it," Ryan said. "From our franchise's standpoint, it's the most exciting thing that's happened."
Ryan's greatness on and off the field made him a near unanimous pick by our ESPNDallas.com panel as an inaugural ESPN Dallas Hall of Fame member. Only Tim MacMahon, who selected all Cowboys for his "ideal five," didn't have Ryan on his final ballot.
"When you look at some of the true legends of the Metroplex and North Texas and what they meant to the teams they performed with, it's obviously an honor to be looked at in that light," Ryan said.
Coming Monday: We unveil your five selections for induction into the inaugural class of the ESPN Dallas Hall of Fame.

Sunscreens Increase Rate of Skin Cancer
Identified so far are 588 sunscreens, 172 facial moisturizers, 111 lip balms, and 81 different types of lipstick contain oxybenzone. Tests show that many of these so-called sunscreens offer inadequate protection from the sun.
They also found that sunlight also causes oxybenzone to form free radical chemicals that may be linked to cell damage, which is the exact opposite reason many women mistakenly use the sunscreen.
Interestingly, as sunscreen sales have risen, so has the rate of skin cancers. Read the entire article.
The only sunscreen I've been able to use without my face itching or getting red has been Natria Sunscreen SPF30. I've used Natria lip balm and moisturizer also.

I always felt for years that there was something not quite right about the common sunscreens and their widespread toxic chemicals. There are natural ones that make more sense. And our skin does need some pure sunshine.
This news is confirmation that God was giving me wisdom before it showed up in the studies.
Thanks again God.

It's true that our inner wisdom is worth more than gold when it comes to all the options and choices of life. Avoiding the sun has created other disease problems since Vitamin D deficiency is common.
Applause for you to keep your mind tuned into those inner stirrings :-) - April 17, 2008

Fred Craddock
Fred Brenning Craddock | |
Craddock discussing homiletics with a student.
Nationality | American |
Occupation | Preacher, Professor |
Spouse(s) | Nettie Dungan |
Fred Benning Craddock (born 1928) is Bandy Distinguished Professor of Preaching and New Testament Emeritus in the Candler School of Theology at Emory University. He is an ordained minister of the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ) from rural Tennessee. He is the director of the Craddock Center, a non-profit service group which operates in rural Appalachia.[1]
Written works[edit]
Craddock has written a number of books, including The Pre-Existence of Christ (1968), As One Without Authority (1971, rev. 1974 and 1979), Overhearing the Gospel (1978), The Gospels (1981), commentaries on John (1982) and Philippians (1984), Preaching (1985), a commentary on Luke (1990) and a collection of sermon related anecdotes (Craddock Stories. 2001). Craddock has also contributed articles to various journals.[2]
Preaching Style[edit]
There are at least three major features of Craddock's new homiletic that distinguish it from traditional homiletics. First, instead of using a traditional deductive approach, in which three points are named and illustrated, in his sermons, Craddock advocates an inductive style. Critiquing traditional homiletics—called the "old homiletic"—Craddock turned toward induction, in which the preacher re-creates for the listener the inductive process of study used to create the sermon itself. A second unique feature of Craddock's new homiletic is that a sermon should seek to create an experience for the listener, rather than attempting to gain the listeners' assent through sermons using deductive, linear logic. As a result of Craddock's inductive model, the role of the listeners fundamentally changes: no longer are listeners passive recipients of a conclusion already reached by the authoritative preacher, to which they must acquiesce. Rather, in Craddock's scheme, the listeners are active participants in the sermon by virtue of the sermon form itself, which enables the hearer to "finish" the sermon that is intentionally left open-ended. A key assumption of this model, as Craddock notes, is that listeners share a common universal experience, ensuring that the listener's mental processes will work in the same way as the preacher's, thus recreating the same type of experience. This assumption would be later challenged by, among others, John McClure. Third, Craddock emphasizes that the form or genre of the biblical passage to be preached should shape in some way the form taken by the sermon (a claim also made by Tom Long). While Craddock does not require that a sermon slavishly adhere to the biblical form—a psalm need not be preached entirely as a poetic sermon—he argues that various biblical forms seek to accomplish a variety of rhetorical aims; as such, the sermon should attempt to "do what the text does" in both the "what" (content) and the "how" (rhetorical strategies) of the text.
- Craddock offers an inductive approach to preaching with an aim of active participation by the listener in the movement of the sermon as well as in the discerning of the message. His grounding principle is that good preaching is a socializing force that creates community.[3]
Often characterized as preaching with a style that is "folksy,"[4] Craddock is a strong supporter of using humour in sermons.[5] Newsweek ranked him as one of America's greatest preachers.[2] Craddock's new homiletic has influenced further generations of homileticians who have developed new sermon forms while holding to certain values found within the new homiletic: narrative preaching, phenomenological preaching, and conversational preaching, to name a few.
Much sought after as a lecturer, he has delivered the Lyman Beecher Lectures at Yale, the Scott Lectures at Claremont School of Theology, the Adams Lectures at Southeastern Baptist Seminary, the Schaff Lectures at Pittsburgh Theological Seminary, the Sprinkle Lectures at Barton College (formerly Atlantic Christian College), the Cole Lectures at Vanderbilt, the Westervelt Lectures at Austin Presbyterian Seminary, the Mullins Lectures at Southern Seminary, and the Earl Lectures at Pacific School of Religion. He has served as invited plenary speaker at the Christian Scholars Conference. Craddock was the 2007 Founder's Day speaker at Johnson University, where he completed his undergraduate degree, and taught in the fields of Bible and Homiletics.
Craddock was succeeded on the Emory faculty by Carl R. Holladay.

Among techno's cognoscenti, jazz now stands as a source of inspiration, and a way out of the creative cul-de-sac that so many metronomic beatmeisters have found themselves in.
"Jazz is a step -- not the step -- but a step out for people trying to warm up the whole electronic thing," says Carl Craig, one of America's pre-eminent techno producers. As proof the Detroit-based Craig points to his latest album, Programmed, recorded under the moniker Innerzone Orchestra, with percussionist Francisco Mora (an alumnus of the Sun Ra Arkestra); keyboardist Craig Taborn (who has performed with James Carter and the Art Ensemble of Chicago); and Matt Chicoine (who as Recloose constructs inventive, off-kilter electronica for Craig's own Planet E record label). Programmed is the sum of those combined résumés, reflecting a vision that is steeped in the avant-garde jazz currents of the '70s, as well as Detroit's seminal techno grooves, all the while seeking to transcend both.
"I'd hope that there are young cats out there who think they know what techno is," Craig continues, his voice taking on the tenor of a wary preacher, "and if they've got an open mind, they'll hear Programmed and say, 'This is some interesting shit; this is new techno.' Then they'll listen to someone's jazz show on public radio, come across Miles Davis's Rated X or any of Miles's late '60s or '70s things, and be able to make a connection between that, Tortoise, and Herbie Hancock's '70s stuff. Then they'll be able to help move the scene forward so it doesn't remain so sterile."
If concern for the scene seems strange coming from an artist who regularly jet-sets around the world to high-paying DJ gigs, it also reflects a position of prominence that has been thrust upon him, whether he likes it or not. The 30-year-old Craig first emerged at the dawn of the '90s as a disciple of Derrick May, who (along with Juan Atkins and Kevin Saunderson) is widely credited with inventing techno, a fusion of sweaty funk and coolly hypnotic tempos that May described as "George Clinton and Kraftwerk meeting in an elevator."
By the mid-'90s, however, May's attention had shifted from releasing new records to DJing (an aural absence that still endures). For their parts Atkins and Saunderson delivered works that, while certainly solid, lacked the fire and revolutionary spirit of their youthful output. Likewise the "second generation" of Detroit techno producers who came of age as Craig's contemporaries (such as Stacey Pullen and Claude Young) had become legendary more for their head-spinning DJ sets than for their own vinyl.
In contrast Craig spent the bulk of the past decade hunkered down in his studio working on a slew of efforts, notable not just for their brilliance, but also for their continual theme of reinvention. As the Paperclip People, he created churning, sleazy, dance-floor burners that gave a knowing nod to the glitter-ball days of Giorgio Moroder's disco. As Six Nine (his birth year) Craig fashioned twisting miniepics of soulful bump 'n' grind; under his own name, he released the album More Songs About Food and Revolutionary Art. It's a record that exists as one of techno's few fully realized, self-contained works, which coheres as just that: an album in the classic sense of the word, full of mournful peals erecting a sumptuous soundscape. Add in the 1992 Innerzone Orchestra single "Bug in the Bassbin" (often cited by British fans as one of that nation's templates for drum and bass), and you have a canon that establishes Craig as one of techno's international leading lights, an artist to whom electronica's doyen look for guidance regarding what their music is "supposed" to sound like.
So how does techno's crown sit on Craig's head? "It's been a plague for the last five years," he snaps in reply. After pausing for a deep sigh, Craig adds, "When I started Planet E, the whole concept was to make music that would be classic, that was always expanding the boundaries." Despite this independent tone, Craig has felt public pressure to produce a "Carl Craig" sound, one that conforms to the approach of his past work. Accordingly the jazz tinge of Programmed may throw some fans for a loop. "I know people are going to say, 'What the hell is this? What's going on with Carl Craig?' But maybe in a year, maybe in five years, they'll come around and say, 'Oh, I get it now. I had to get a little bit older; I had to hear differences in music throughout time.'"

After seven months, traffic ideas still going 'round: No consensus on best flow patterns for Dover
Tuesday, April 22, 2014
DOVER — Three alternatives created from the Downtown Pedestrian and Vehicular Access and Streetscape Study were discussed Monday evening after seven months of research into the revitalization of the urban core.
The study, guided by the city's Planning Department with assistance from The Cecil Group, focuses on rebalancing the entire downtown circulation and streetscape network so that future conditions support a mixed-use environment that is more convenient, pleasant, and economically vibrant.
"There are major concerns," she said.
Following the presentation by Cecil, many remained to discuss details of each plan as they pertain to certain stakeholders. |

Ask the Experts: Myth Busters!
by Dana Angelo White in Ask the Experts, October 2, 2012
Dietitians are always trying to dispel the obscene amount of nutrition myths floating out in the world. We asked nutrition experts around the country about their favorite (or rather, least favorite!) nutrition myths and how they set the record straight.
MYTH #1: Organic foods are more nutritious
BUSTED: Bonnie Tandy Leblang, MS, RD clears this issue up by saying:
"In terms of vitamins and minerals, organic foods are generally no more nutritious than conventionally grown foods. Organic refers to the way the food is grown, handled and processed — that is without the use of pesticides, fertilizers, antibiotics, hormones or, in the case of milk and meat, steroids."
Shopping for Organic Produce? Use the Dirty Dozen and Clean Fifteen
MYTH #2: Eggs are bad for you
BUSTED: Janice Newell Bissex, MS, RD co-founder MealMakeoverMoms.com explains:
"Eggs are a nutrient dense food (especially the egg yolk) providing important nutrients like protein, vitamin E, vitamin D, choline, lutein and omega-3 fats."
Healthy Eats votes for eggs too, whites and yolks
MYTH #3: Eat fat-free foods to lose weight
BUSTED: Nutrition Babes Lauren Harris-Pincus, MS, RD and Kathy Siegel, RD, CDN instruct their clients by saying:
"Healthy fats from sources like olive oil, avocados, fish, nuts and seeds are an important part of a healthy diet. Fat-free foods are usually highly processed and filled with chemicals to help them mimic the flavor of their full fat counterparts."
Labels can be tricky, beware of the Healthy Halo
MYTH #4: Milk causes mucus
BUSTED: Karen Giles-Smith, MS RD takes a scientific approach:
"According to a recent research review in the Journal of the American College of Nutrition, there is no conclusive evidence that consuming milk increases mucus production and aggravates the congestion of colds, allergies, or asthma. It may be that the protein and/or fat in milk temporarily "coats" the throat, leading to a perception of mucus accumulation."
Get all the facts! Milk: Good or Bad?
MYTH #5: Gluten free is a weight loss diet
BUSTED: Rachel Begun, MS, RD says it's all about choices:
"If eating gluten free means replacing highly processed foods with nutrient-dense foods, taking in the proper amount of calories and getting regular exercise, then you can lose weight on a gluten-free diet. If gluten free means eating mostly highly processed, empty-calorie, gluten-free foods, then you aren't likely to lose weight. For those who don't have a gluten related disorder, it's important to make the distinction between removing gluten and making smarter choices. It's the latter that leads to lead weight loss."
See our list of gluten free dos and don'ts

Literature Annotations
Bulgakov, Mikhail |
Genre | Collection (Short Stories) (158 pp.) |
Keywords | Acculturation, Art of Medicine, Childbirth, Children, Death and Dying, Drug Addiction, Empathy, Hospitalization, Human Worth, Infectious Disease, Loneliness, Medical Mistakes, Pain, Physician Experience, Professionalism, Society, Suffering, Trauma |
Summary | This is a collection of partly fictional, partly autobiographical stories about a young Russian doctor sent to practice at a rural hospital immediately after graduating from medical school. Muryovo hospital serves the peasantry in a remote region lacking decent roads and amenities like electricity. The doctor works day and night, aided by a feldsher and two midwives. Sometimes he sees over 100 patients a day in his clinic while attending to another 40 in the hospital. The stories reveal in a clear, engaging style the doctor's anxiety as daily he encounters new problems (his first amputation, his first breech presentation, his first dental extraction) and-- for the most part--overcomes them. They also reveal a constant tension between the peasants' ignorance and the doctor's instructions. Full of blizzards and isolation, the stories are also warm and companionable, with vignettes of friendship, gratitude, and nobility. |
Commentary | Bulgakov was sent to a country hospital like Muryovo (without an internship) after graduating with a degree in medicine from Kiev University in 1916. He spent 18 months in this difficult, isolated practice, before returning to Kiev to specialize in venereal diseases. Subsequently, he moved to the Caucasus and gave up medical practice to pursue a career in writing. These stories were written in the mid-1920's and published separately between 1925 and 1927. According to Michael Glenny, the translator of this 1975 collection, Bulgakov intended to publish them together in a book to be called "The Notes of a Young Doctor," but he never did so. (He died in 1940.) Glenny comments on the stories' evocation of "an almost mythic conflict between enlightenment and unreason." He also reflects on the difference in style between these straightforward tales and the fantasy and satire of his famous novels (The Master and Margarita and The Heart of a Dog), which were written during the same period. These medical tales do have a lot in common with William Carlos Williams's "doctor stories," both in terms of the doctoring theme as well as the ignorance-knowledge theme. Mostly, however, they present a gripping portrait of a young doctor mastering his profession. |

Blizzard Entertainment has just announced that World of Warcraft's subscriber base has reached an all time high with a standing army of over 12 million players. Does it seem like it's been a while since you've read news about how many millions of people play WoW? That's because Blizzard hasn't sent out a press release about their subscriber base since November 21, 2008, when it was announced that 11.5 million players subscribe to WoW. Just one month before that, Blizzard announced that they had surpassed 11 million subscribers on October 28, 2008.
So, why has it been almost two years since we've heard about WoW's subscriber base? According to Blizzard, "This milestone was reached in the wake of the mainland Chinese launch of World of Warcraft's second expansion, Wrath of the Lich King, and also as global anticipation continues to mount for the December 7 release of the game's third expansion, Cataclysm."
Although the Wrath of the Lich King expansion released in November of 2008, the game's launch in China was delayed due to censorship issues until August of this year. Technical complications that followed Blizzard's decision to transfer from The9 as the operator for WoW in China to NetEase also led to the game being down for about three weeks in 2009.
Above: Censorship and technical issues threw a wrench in Blizzard's plans, delaying WotLK's release in China and causing a lengthy downtime when service was unavailable
These factors could explain why we haven't seen the numbers reports we've come to expect from Blizzard – and why it took nearly 2 years to reach the 12 million subscriber milestone we're hearing about today. But now that complications with the game running in China appear to be settled and Cataclysm scheduled to launch this December, we wouldn't be surprised to see another strong increase in WoW's subscriber base this winter.
In case you're wondering, here's how Blizzard defines a World of Warcraft subscriber when counting the numbers:
World of Warcraft subscribers include individuals who have paid a subscription fee or have an active prepaid card to play World of Warcraft, as well as those who have purchased the game and are within their free month of access. Internet Game Room players who have accessed the game over the last thirty days are also counted as subscribers. The above definition excludes all players under free promotional subscriptions, expired or cancelled subscriptions, and expired prepaid cards. Subscribers in licensees' territories are defined along the same rules.

Brian Biedul's Spaces series is a collection of oil paintings that focus on the meeting point of outside and inside space as beheld in the mind of the viewer who sees a figure trapped within the threshold of the canvas. The larger than life figures pushing against the edges of the rectangle are based on a simple male model (although the female is featured in the square paintings) in order to avoid any mistaken ideas pertaining to social commentary. The viewer must concentrate on the form of the figure and the way the form creates the space.

Liliana Read (4) having fun at The Heartsease Funday taking place on Heartsease Recreation Ground, Norwich PHOTO BY SIMON FINLAY
Emma Knights
Saturday, September 1, 2012
Community spirit was in full swing today as crowds of families turned out to enjoy the Heartsease Fun day.
The event at Heartsease Recreation Ground, in Sale Road, saw people of all ages enjoying everything from hook-a-duck games to face painting to cookery demonstrations to table top sales. They were also given the opportunity to find out more about groups and organisations in their area.
Karen Reding, who led the organisation of the event with Chris Avey from the Old Bakery Cafe and the charity Mind, said it was great how many people came to take part and it was hoped it would become an annual event.
Seventy-five-year-old Jean Nichols, who was manning the St Francis Church stand, said: "The fun-day was a really good idea. I think it is really important to have community events like this, especially on a big estate like ours."
Grant Ewens, 41 and of Woodside Road, had fun learning circus skills with his sons Samuel, eight, and Piers, six, and his step-daughter Jessica, seven.
He said: "It is really good when you have these events which bring communities together, and it is fantastic how many people have given their time to organise the event."
The city's lord mayor Ralph Gayton attended the fun-day which he said was a great example of what communities can do if they work together.
The event was funded by the Norfolk Community Foundation and Norwich City Council.

Swindon won 1-0 at Colchester on Tuesday to move closer to the top two in League One, while Portsmouth lost yet again.
Swindon are now just two points behind the automatic promotion places after James Collins' second-half strike sealed a narrow victory at struggling Colchester.
Stevenage eased to a 2-0 home win over Notts County thanks to Sam Hoskins' strike after just 38 seconds and Marcus Haber's 89th-minute effort. The match was caretaker boss Chris Kiwomya's first in charge of the visiting Magpies.
Akpo Sodje's second goal of the game six minutes from full-time ensured Scunthorpe beat Portsmouth 2-1 at Glanford Park.
Sodje had put the home side ahead five minutes before the break but Liam Walker equalised on the stroke of half-time. Second-bottom Pompey thought they had secured a vital point before Sodje the winner late on.
Oldham against Yeovil and Sheffield United versus Crawley were postponed due to snow and a waterlogged pitch respectively.
