"Octavia is awesome!!"
I have read many of Octavia's books so I was excited to see one of them here. Wish they had more, I would get them all. Anyway this book is very good and the reader is excellent. I didn't have any trouble keeping track of the characters even with one reader. The book is surreal and enveloping. You don't know what to think or what might happen. The book is disturbing at times because part of it occurs in the 1800s during slavery. This book is great stuff!!
I like a book that keeps me wanting to "listen". I enjoyed this book and glad I bought it. The characters were easy to keep track of because of the multiple readers. My only complaint is that the at least one story line ended a little to neat in my opinion. But even with that I had a great time listening to the book.

ISLAMABAD/NEW DELHI (Reuters) - Pakistan said on Friday that India's "selective" approach to issues has led to what analysts say is a stalemate in talks aimed to build trust shattered by the 2008 Mumbai attacks.
Pakistan Foreign Minister Shah Mehmood Qureshi and his Indian counterpart S.M. Krishna met in Islamabad on Thursday and agreed on more talks but failed to announce any concrete measures that might soothe tensions between the nuclear-armed neighbours.
Then, at a joint news conference immediately after the talks the two openly sparred, underscoring the air of mistrust between the rivals who have fought three wars since independence from Britain in 1947.
"I could see from yesterday's talks that they want to be selective. When they say all issues are on the table then they cannot, they should not, be selective," Qureshi told reporters after attending a ceremony for new diplomats in Islamabad.
"Progress in talks can only be possible if we move forward on all issues in tandem."
But Krishna played down the differences, possibly in keeping with an India trying to move away from a decades-old obsession with Pakistan, seduced more by its growing role in the global economy and concerns with other security issues like China.
"Well I am not going to score debating points over Foreign Minister Qureshi," Krishna said after returning from Islamabad.
"I would like to concentrate on the serious issues, and the fact of the matter is that we did discuss many issues which are of great concern to both of us, both countries, and we think we have made some headway."
Security remains India's top concern after the attack on Mumbai by Pakistani militants, which killed 166 people. After Thursday's talks, Krishna repeated New Delhi's call for Islamabad to speed up efforts to bring the perpetrators to justice.
India blames Pakistan-based Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT) militants for the attacks, and in remarks published in an Indian newspaper on Wednesday, Indian Home Secretary G.K. Pillai accused Pakistan's main spy agency, the Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI), of orchestrating the assault on India's financial centre.
India has linked the relaunching of peace talks between the two South Asian rivals with Pakistan's action against the perpetrators of the attack.
But Qureshi warned against India's attitude.
"If we give heed to those issues which they consider important and those issues in which Pakistan is interested are neglected then things cannot move forward," he said.
"They have to sit with an open mind and we have to move forward with an open heart."
Pakistan wants discussions on other issues, including its core dispute with India over the Himalayan region of Kashmir, the cause of two of their three wars. Kashmir is divided between the two countries.
On Friday, India reimposed a curfew in parts of Kashmir where India is fighting a two-decade-old separatist insurgency. Huge anti-India protests have swept the region over the past month.
While the latest round of talks may have not done much to clear the air of mistrust, the two countries are likely to keep alive dialogue because India would want to boost the credibility of Pakistan's civilian government in the face of military hawks.
Also, both sides have been under pressure from the United States to reduce tensions because their rivalry is often played out in Afghanistan and complicates efforts to bring peace there.
"I don't see this as a temporary setback because here we are looking at a lengthy, complex process," said Siddharth Varadarajan, strategic affairs editor of the Hindu newspaper.
"Part of such a process will mean having a more dense calendar of meetings, and they will proceed on the deliverables like cross-border trade and Sir Creek," he said, referring to a maritime border dispute in the area of the Sir Creek estuary.
Indian officials said the two countries could meet in the coming months to try to "enlarge the constituency of convergence" such as in trade and culture.

Maggie is a pretty easy dog to live with. She knows basic obedience and is house trained. She is fine with small and big kids. She does not jump on the kids and rarely jumps on adults. Maggie likes to play ball and is a fun dog in general. She will chase cats and small animals that run. Maggie requires a fenced in yard due to her love of the chase. She will need exercise daily such as a long walk/ run and ball or Frisbee throwing in the yard but she is also great at just hanging out quietly in the house with her family..
Maggie is a shadow dog and will be next to you in every room you go to. Wherever I am she is laying close by. She will go outside and play by herself for a little while but you will hear her scratch at the door to come in when she wants company.
Overall Maggie is a great dog, good with people as well as kids. Very friendly and could be a Therapy Dog if trained. For a first time dog family she could work since she is easy to live with but I would highly recommend a training class to teach her and help you learn how dogs learn and think. Usually Rottweilers in general are not good matches for first time dog owners but Maggie is very gentle and easy to train. She listens well to voice command and tone.

I find it ironic that as we continue the battle against bullying in schools and amongst the A-list, it is in that very same cultural sphere that people use their cause as their weapon. Although I often disagree with comments made in the media, I more firmly believe that it isn't my place to call someone out for their opinion.
My journey to achieve the perfect body started when I was 14. The objective -- tall, thin, cellulite-free with smooth skin and beautifully toned abs -- you know the look. If 'thigh gaps' and 'bikini bridges' were in at the time, I would have added them to my list of things to obsess over. In some ways I came pretty close to achieving the "dream body" that I obsessed over in magazines but I never expected that I would lose everything important to me along the way.
Mental illnesses are like pack animals. There is never just one without others lurking behind corners waiting to jump on us -- their weight holding us down; their teeth ripping through the flesh of our throat until we are too weak to fight back. As we lay bleeding and broken, available treatment is more difficult to reach.
The absence of visible symptoms is not the most accurate measure of someone's recovery from this disease. Weight is a physical thing, but anorexia also resides firmly in the psyche. Anorexia is like having the person who hates you the most, the most irrational tyrant you can imagine, living in your head rent-free, trying to burn down your physical foundation from the inside out. It's an interminable abusive relationship that's nearly impossible to leave because it transpires in your own mind. Those voices can cause problems before the weight loss starts to show.
The moment I put on my dream wedding dress, I cried tears of disappointment and frustration. It was exactly as I had pictured, with a corseted top that tied like a ballet slipper in the back, shiny white beads on the front, and a flowing, silky train. The dress wasn't the problem. It was how I looked in it. "You look beautiful," my mother said, thinking I was crying tears of joy. In that moment, I knew I still wasn't "better." I thought I had recovered, and I thought this meant I'd love the way I look. I hate that my eating disorder tainted this precious moment that I cannot have back. I use this hate to empower myself. Today, five years later, I think I'm "normal."
As I was reading through Twitter accounts and bios of people advocating for the recognition of eating disorders as real and dangerous, I came across the words "ex-anorexic." I was jealous. I am able to eat a meal with my family, and quietly endure the self-loathing afterwards with no physiological consequences; but the mental battle drags me through such an obstacle course, that by the time I've reached the finish line, I am no longer certain of whether or not I want to get better. Unfortunately, part of me is convinced that there is no such thing as getting better from this
I've spent these past several months adjusting to the diagnoses of my mental illnesses, redefining who I am as compared to who I thought I was. Sadly though, dependent on how news of my illnesses is viewed by others and based on the fact that my healing is partly based on perseverance and strength, never has the company I've kept been subject to more scrutiny.
Although my mental illness was recently diagnosed, I've known since I was a teenager that I had an eating disorder. In the case of the eating disorder known as EDNOS (Eating Disorder Not Otherwise Specified), lack of physically obvious symptoms makes it not only easier for this disorder to persist for years, but it also makes health care providers less willing and/or able to diagnose it.
We are not just expected to put in the same amount of work in the office, and still more at home, we also have to find the time to go to the gym, pull on skin-tight shape wear, prepare gluten-free, carb-free, Paleo, blah, blah, meals, get Botox, gel manicures, and buy expensive serums, lotions, and potions proven to even out our complexion, hide fine lines, and reduce sagging.
The image of what often comes to mind, and what is often publicized for people with eating disorders is a younger female who is skeletal in frame. In my case, I was a young man who was albeit thin, also quite muscular. I worked in health in fitness. I helped people get fit. I was supposed to be the voice of healthy living.
Are we doing enough about an illness that is silently eating away at both a mother and daughter? Twenty years ago, People Magazine headlined one of their covers with, "Princess Di: Struggle with Bulimia Brings a Puzzling Disease Out of the Shadows." Eating disorders still remain a private battle for millions of young women, and the faces of those affected are changing. We'd be downright wrong to frame it as a "rich, white girl's disease." How do you capture the cost of subjecting millions of women to calorie counting or religious scale stepping?
One of these photos is an expertly lit, no doubt digitally enhanced image of a girl in her mid-twenties presented here as the definition of what a woman is allowed to be proud of; "until you are proud" seems to mean "until you have six pack abs, perky, squeezable breasts and the terrible burden of finding size 0 jeans with a 34 inch inseam."
Recently I was asked if I ever worried that I was putting my children at risk for developing eating disorders by being so open and honest about my own. The truth is that they always knew their mom was a bit "different," they just didn't know why. I may have convinced myself that they were oblivious to my disorder, but how could that be true when we'd be walking out the door to go for dinner and one of them would ask, "Are you eating today, Mommy, or just watching?" or they'd shout, "Look, Mommy's a dinosaur!" because the bones of my spine would poke out so sharply from under my skin.
Seventy-five percent of women battle disordered eating in one form or another. We need to reevaluate our relationships with food, each other, and God so that we don't impose negativity on mealtime and body image. There's no secret formula, but if you look at yourself and see that you're in a negative place, you probably need to talk to your children about that. We need to be honest with them--create an open dialogue so that if something arises, they feel comfortable talking about it.

Fall has come to Afghanistan. Back home in Minnesota, it's my favorite season; ushering in falling leaves, weekend football, warm sweatshirts, and the forthcoming crisp winter air. The weather is changing here as well, with chilly nights, frequent rain, and snow on distant mountaintops. It feels foreign to experience "fall" in a warzone—it just doesn't compute. My previous two deployments were perpetual summers, with yearlong weather patterns cycling between hot, hotter, and hottest. Fall feels like home, yet it has arrived in Afghanistan—with winter close behind. I'm certainly glad to be rid of the heat; it just takes a while to associate the cold with camouflage.

Dismissal from employment because of political views. Are these examples of retaliation against civil-rights activists in the South in 1954? Attempts by an authoritarian government to quash dissent? No, this is the sort of intimidation that Americans who support marriage as the union of a man and woman can face today. Persecution of opponents is becoming a tool of the trade for some gay-marriage activists, who -- ironically -- seem to view themselves as beacons of tolerance. Now, the groundwork for such intimidation is being laid in Minnesota.

An Oct. 6 editorial praised the Minnesota Campaign Finance Board's recent opinion requiring the disclosure of the source of certain donations to support or defeat ballot questions ("Voters should know amendment donors"). The editorial, unfortunately, failed to acknowledge the difficult and important issue at stake, focusing entirely on the virtue of transparency without ever mentioning how transparency can conflict with First Amendment speech, association and privacy-of-belief rights.

In America today, we rush to fumigate our public schools at the slightest hint of religion. Yet until recently, a Minnesota public charter school—Tarek ibn Ziyad Academy (TiZA)—operated in our midst as an Islamic school at taxpayer expense.

People on the right tend to be enthusiastic about yoking men and women in marriage and about locking bad guys up in prison. To what extent, however, does the latter practice undermine the former? Research verifies common sense by showing that married men are less likely than single men to break the law. Getting married is thus a good way for a man to help himself avoid getting locked up. But what about single men who have already been charged with committing crimes? They are less attractive marriage partners, not just because they may be incarcerated, but because rap sheets are not conducive to good-paying, family-supporting jobs. By not marrying, they lose a major source of support in straightening out their lives. How can they escape this trap?
At this school, usual excuses don't apply: The student population is black and poor—and highly proficient.
Sep 25, 2011
A north Minneapolis school at Olson Memorial Hwy. and Humboldt Avenue has demographics that seem a sure predictor of our state's most intractable education problem. The student population there is 99 percent black and 91 percent poor, and about 70 percent of the children come from single-parent families.

As dawn broke on Sept. 11, 2001, America was asleep—believing itself to be prosperous, safe and secure. Hours later, we gazed in horror and disbelief as the Twin Towers collapsed in a maelstrom of flame, smoke and debris. What did we learn? First and foremost, that there is evil—real evil—in the world.

Our children are living in perilous times. To prepare them to preserve their heritage of freedomin this dangerous world, we must place education aimed at cultivating democratic citizenship at theheart of the school curriculum.

Depends on the zombie. World War Z (movie) zombies are faster than Death. Typical zombies are slower. Faster than 3 miles/hour and you can stay ahead of Death at least for the study period. 2 miles/hour and you are almost certain to be caught. Of course this was done with men in their 70s, but you can probably extrapolate and find something that matches your age at least with regards to outrunning Death. Note that Death does not need to stop walking ever, so this is most likely cumulative, and there are offsetting factors of course - such as whether or not Death is distracted - so there is some truth about "I don't have to run faster than Death, I just have to run faster than you." line.

90 days is really long when you don't have a massive base to run testing and regression against. Let's just say that the fix is adding a bounds check to the input for a single function. The engineer assigned to the bug adds the bounds check and unit tests to make sure it behaves now. The fix is submitted to the build queue for the (let's say nightly) run to generate the next patch set, and the next production build for Windows. Now QA gets it, and being that this particular item failed for an input, they write a bunch of tests that kick in various input items - numbers, letters, binary data, larger than expected, smaller than expected, etc. This is then run in the "Test this subsystem" run and if it passes, yay, else back to step one. Then they run that test as part of their automated "Test Windows" run (which probably takes hours to do). If everything passes, great. If not, back to step one. Then after it passes QA for "Test Windows", it needs to go through QA for "Test Windows with {list of major software that if we break something it is bad}". If that all passes, then it can go to the patch queue for the next scheduled release. I'd be surprised if an automated "Test Windows" run can be completed in less than a day or two. Probably 3-5 days for the "Test Windows with Other Software Running". So the minimum time to get a tested patch is about a week assuming the problem is super simple. Once it starts involving multiple subsystems, you can start running into weeks to get a good tested patch, assuming that it doesn't take a few weeks for engineering to get a fix ready for testing in the first place.
Google made the 90 day deadline up, sure. But they are enforcing it, which I think is pretty cool. MS wanted them to wait two days. TWO DAYS. Which says to me they were testing the waters. No way those two days were actually crucial for MS. If you can finish the job in 92 days, you can finish it in 90 days (especially when you have the resources MS has)....
I see you've never done regression runs with a large software base. 2 days can make a lot of difference in completing the regression run to make sure that the patch won't break anything else (remember - MS just had to pull a patch that broke stuff, which means they released it without doing a full regression run - willing to bet some of the guys who do this were on vacation over the holidays). While there may have been a "testing the waters" bit there, it was also a "hey we, really do need time to make sure everything is hunky dory".
Considering the original story was written long before Looper (and Heinlein did a lot of time travel stories) - and the story line itself looks at things in a different way/different point of the timeline.. I'd disagree.
This is still a good thing - it eliminates the false reports and shows that the officers are doing their job correctly as well as making the criminals (or suspects) less likely to do something that is harmful to the officers because they know there is footage of the event.

This has been happening in the Middle East for more than 1000 years. If you think ISIS is something new then you really need to get an education.
Murdering each other is a way of life in the Middle east. Their holy books demand you kill non believers
Christian Bible (2 Chronicles 15:12-13) - "They entered into a covenant to seek the Lord, the God of their fathers, with all their heart and soul; and everyone who would not seek
the Lord, the God of Israel, was to be put to death, whether small or great, whether man or woman."
Christian Bible (Deuteronomy 13:7-12) - "If your own full brother, or your son or daughter, or your beloved wife, or you intimate friend, entices you secretly to serve other gods, whom you and your fathers have not known, gods of any other nations, near at hand or far away, from one end of the earth to the other: do not yield to him or listen to him, nor look with pity upon him, to spare or shield him, but kill him. Your hand shall be the first raised to slay him; the rest of the people shall join in with you. You shall stone him to death, because he sought to lead you astray from the Lord, your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, that place of slavery. And all Israel, hearing of this, shall fear and never do such evil as this in your midst."
Christian Bible (Deuteronomy 17:2-5) - "Suppose a man or woman among you, in one of your towns that the LORD your God is giving you, has done evil in the sight of the LORD your God and has violated the covenant by serving other gods or by worshiping the sun, the moon, or any of the forces of heaven, which I have strictly forbidden. When you hear about it, investigate the matter thoroughly. If it is true that this detestable thing has been done in Israel, then that man or woman must be taken to the gates of the town and stoned to death."
The difference between the Christian sects are trivial.... etc. Although I am in agreement with you about bringing peace to the Middle East being more or less futile, at least until the day some faction detonates a nuclear weapon at Mecca and/or Jerusalem.
That actually wouldn't be that bad an app to build - hmmm.

I didn't review each and every chapter in this story, because I wanted to read through first...only stopping to review on Anthony's peeking in and stopping Steph's session. I couldn't help myself.
But, please let me say, that this was such a touching, OUTSTANDING story that had me in tears, sobbing at a few points. Laughing at other points, and just angry beyond measure at yet others.
I adored Julie's journal. You have done such an outstanding job with not only this story, and the topic of trying to break through this traumatic episode and heal a family, even though it is an exceptional family that may have their own ways of dealing with trauma. You found Julie's voice and her words were nothing less than genius. I loved the young, not yet teen outlook and superior intellect she shares with Ranger and Anthony, and her personality was absolutely a joy to listen to. You have done such an amazing job telling this entire story, this entire WORLD, that I just have to say THANK YOU, for everything. You have given me hours and hours of joy reading and visualizing these characters and their lives, and making them feel a part of my life in some way. What a gift. What a talent. Thank you, again, for sharing that with us.

Only that has nothing whatsoever with the movie. It's really about a washed-up actor...
Doctoring Lessons
Last night, I taught my first ever psychology/sociology class to MCAT students. As many of you probably do not know, the MCAT—the Medical College Admissions Test—is adding for 2015 a brand new content section on psychology and sociology in which they expect incoming medical students to have taken at least one semester of introductory...
I Can't Do Math...or Can I?
Math is not my subject. In high school, my average in math was lowest, although surprisingly, my highest average was in the sciences. I "got" physics, in spite of the math, because there, the math made sense. In the abstract, it sent my brain reeling. More than once, my mother had to call my math teachers to say that I was too sick...
Existential Roundup
Welcome to the Existential Roundup, where we bring you links to some articles currently trending that may be of interest to those in the existential-humanistic psychology community. The end of the summer is almost upon us and that back-to-school feeling is in the air, much to the chagrin of students (and teachers?) everywhere. Thus, in honor of...
The Relationship in Academia
An article in the Chronicle of Higher Education on May 6, 2014 reported on recent research suggesting that a connection with a caring professor may be an important contributing factor to college success (Carlson, 2014). For existential psychologists, this is not surprising. There is a preponderance of evidence suggesting that it is the...
How To Change A Student's Life Forever
These days we think of students as precious little orchids whose self-esteem must not be bruised by their education. The notion of a "teacher" as an authority figure is out of fashion. Have we got it all wrong? Writing recently in the Wall Street Journal, author Joanne Lipman made a case that an old-fashioned education is still the...

Among the items: a 19-th Century Moser vase from Devonia Antiques ($1,950); a Buccellati sterling silver picture frame for $1,695 and 24 Cristofle Aria place settings for $2,190- each. Oh boy.

We are looking for great summer locales for NightCam. The best locations have a fun, chatty, easy going crowd (with lots of 18ish to 34ish-year-olds) and are in and around the Capital Region.

Man thongs, and other such underthings
While women's lingerie has long run the gamut from sweet to sexy and back, men's underwear has traditionally been … boring. However, as the ideas of metrosexuals and man-scaping become more mainstream and men began paying more attention to their fashion and grooming habits, so follows what's underneath. The world of tighty-whities takes a walk […] [Read More]
Why did he stop calling?
An e-mail from a reader: I was seeing this guy last year – it was WONDERFUL. I think we were both in love. We both came out of very long relationships with other people. One day he just stopped calling. Couple months later he resurfaced and said he knows he was stupid but he didn't […] [Read More]
Plan my wedding
That's what Jim Barbetta and Michelle Mattiske of Waterford are saying to the Capital Region since they won the Times Union's Race to the Altar contest. The couple will be married in the Winner's Circle at the track later this summer. (How about they've been engaged since 2004!?!) More than 12,000 votes were cast in […] [Read More]
17 bags in one
When in search of the perfect handbag, women think "functional and style." Chouette Sac may have captured both with their bag that performs 17 transformations for ultimate utility. Whether looking for a tote, mid-sized, hobo, backpack, messenger, belted, evening, clutch, wristlet or dancing pouch, one bag can be converted to serve the function while maintaining […] [Read More]

OK... did NOT see THAT coming.
Seriously, Riful survived (at least partially)? Considering the send-off she got, I was sure she was out of the series for good.
I love Miria's plan- restore Cassandra's consciousness (I really like poor Cassandra, it'd be good if they could save her somehow) and ally with her and the remaining Awakened Ones to take on Priscilla/the Destroyer.
It was also nice to see at least a brief interaction between Clare and Raki. I really expected more a lot earlier.

Napcoware Figurines
Does anyone know anything about these porcelain figurines? I have three child angels in pajamas on pillows. Two boys, one a St. Patrick's Day and the other holding fruit. The girl is an independence day angel. They are all marked with "Napcoware". The two boys have number 07316. The girl has number 06612. I also have three girl angel orchestra members, a cellist, a flutist and a trumpeters. They all have flowers in their hair and are adorned with birds on their instruments. They are marked simply "149.
Hi I wish I could see all your Napcoware Figurines I have most of them in books They should sell for not 10.00 but for 25.00 to 50.00(and maybe more) each on ebay. If you get into a priviate auction,auction house where this kind of things are being offered maybe more I sold on ebay for over 5 years until I became disabled with my back and could no more do the lifting for the packing shipping and mailing I sold many of them as well as their sister ones made by Lefton You have some nice Gems and sounds like yours aren't just the ordinary ones Good Luck With Them!
There is a demand for them and yours sound like the rarer ones.
Mobrien, I found a site that has some pictures and information about the Napcoware Figuriens. You might want to check this out:
There was a picture of a St. Patrick's boy. Good luck!

Brian Kelly
Kelly puts his faith in Rees as his quarterback
Aug 2, 2013, 2:07 AM EDT
Notre Dame is ready to kick off the 2013 with preseason expectations higher than they've been in South Bend since Brady Quinn was returning for his senior season. And while some fans can't help but think about what could have been with returning starter Everett Golson back at quarterback for a second season in the…
Holtz talks candidly about life at the top of Notre Dame
Dec 20, 2012, 1:09 PM EDT
For most of the younger generation, especially those suiting up and playing football, Lou Holtz isn't known as a football coach, but as Dr. Lou, the funny old fella on ESPN that's got a catchy phrase for just about everything. While the ESPN Holtz has become almost a caricature of himself, and the mantel piece…
Kelly discusses Irish football program with Colin Cowherd
Oct 24, 2012, 4:09 PM EDT
Brian Kelly was fulfilling a few media obligations before turning his focus onto the big match-up with Oklahoma this weekend. Part of that media tour included a few minutes in the "Herd," joining ESPN's Colin Cowherd to discuss the state of the Irish football program, and go one-on-one with a pretty polarizing radio personality that…
Pregame Six Pack: Staring down Stanford
Oct 12, 2012, 3:21 AM EDT
The Stanford Cardinal have quite a feather in their cap. Entering the season, they're the only team in college football history to defeat Notre Dame and USC in three consecutive seasons. David Shaw's squad has already extended their streak against the Trojans. They'll look to do the same against the Irish, running their record winning…
And in that corner… The Miami Hurricanes
Oct 3, 2012, 3:34 PM EDT
In the short history of the Shamrock Series, Notre Dame has had the chance to play in some great venues in some terrific cities. Starting the neutral site renaissance with an odd match against Washington State in San Antonio, the Irish exponentially improved the concept when they played the first football game in new Yankee…
Tuesdays with BK: Purdue edition
Sep 4, 2012, 7:52 PM EDT
If you expected head coach Brian Kelly to be excited about Notre Dame jumping into both the AP and Coaches Poll at No. 22, you might be disappointed. When asked if it was something he paid attention to, Notre Dame's head coach was pretty succinct. "White noise," Kelly said. "White noise." With in-state rival Purdue…
Kelly: "I need to be a better head coach."
Aug 4, 2012, 5:49 PM EDT
It was a pretty good exchange after practice between Brian Kelly and a large assembly of media after Day One on the LaBar Practice Fields. While Kelly gave some early impressions on quarterbacks, freshmen, and this blogger's dark-horse favorite for the season, possibly the best comments to come from Kelly were self-reflective. It's no secret…
And so it begins: BK talks 2012 season
Aug 2, 2012, 7:44 PM EDT
Brian Kelly doesn't officially kick off the 2012 football season until tomorrow, when his opening press conference takes place before the start of training camp. But that didn't stop talk of the quarterbacking race from starting early. Joining WSBT's Sportsbeat with Darin Pritchett and Eric Hansen, Kelly answered questions from fans all across the country…
Louis Nix gets first Brian Kelly post-surgery comments
Jun 21, 2012, 8:34 PM EDT
You've got to love the internet… and defensive tackle Louis Nix.

Along with a popular Twitter handle — @IrishChocolate9 –Nix has now started "Chocolate News," his YouTube updates of life in…
Pregame Six Pack: Blue & Gold (and a certain Irish victory)
Apr 20, 2012, 6:11 AM EDT
It may count the same as the other fourteen practices allotted by NCAA rules during the spring, but there will be plenty of eyeballs on the last official workout of the school year for the Irish. With a national broadcast on NBC Sports Network kicking off at 1:30 p.m. ET, a spring spent mostly working…
Offense vs. Defense in the 83rd annual Blue-Gold game
Apr 18, 2012, 5:30 PM EDT
Brian Kelly met with the media after the penultimate practice of spring, and one of his first orders of business was breaking down the rules for the 83rd annual Blue-Gold Game. With the depth chart a bit thin at positions like cornerback and wide receiver, after two seasons of a traditionally formatted game, scoring will…
After rough start, Gray believes in Kelly
Feb 9, 2012, 8:25 PM EDT
It took a while for the light bulb to go on, but when it did, Jonas Gray finally showed the talent many had expected from the blue-chip prospect from Detroit. One of the top prep running backs in the country, it took until Gray's senior season to make an impact on the field, but from…
With classes set to begin, did the Irish flip two blue-chips?
Jan 16, 2012, 11:32 PM EDT
You've got to hand it to Brian Kelly and his assistants. A year after reeling in the trio of Ishaq Williams, Stephon Tuitt, and Aaron Lynch in dramatic fashion, the Irish are close to landing two of the nation's most heralded recruits, amidst even more extraordinary circumstances than last year. With the spring semester set…
Stability prevails as Kelly signs two-year extension
Jan 10, 2012, 8:09 PM EDT
Brian Kelly and Notre Dame have struck a deal that extends the head coach's contract through the 2016 season, the university announced today. The school officially exercised an option to extend his original contract two years. "While Coach Kelly and I are focused on the additional work that must be done to reach our goals,…
Five things we learned: Florida State 18, Notre Dame 14
Dec 29, 2011, 11:47 PM EDT
If you could boil down one game to encapsulate a season, you might have something that looks like the Champs Sports Bowl. During Notre Dame's 18-14 loss, the Irish turned just about every conceivable emotion for a football fan on its head– ecstasy to agony, confidence to frustration, bravado to helplessness. At times, the Irish…
Second time around, Denbrock has made mark
Dec 8, 2011, 4:03 PM EDT
With Charley Molnar set to officially take over the UMass football program, the Irish coaching staff will make its first change since Brian Kelly took over the football program. After two years of staff continuity, Kelly will need to look into the marketplace and hire a coach — be it an offensive coordinator to work…
Quarterback plans signal next year can wait
Dec 7, 2011, 9:34 PM EDT
Beating Florida State in the Champs Sports Bowl is a big deal for Brian Kelly and the Fighting Irish. His decision to keep Tommy Rees the starting quarterback proves that. In a bowl game that most fans see as equal parts rivalry and exhibition game, the Kelly regime needs a victory to keep the football…

In case you didn't know, Notre Dame's trip to the nation's capital had nothing to do about football. Just ask athletic director Jack Swarbrick.

Five things we learned: Notre Dame 56, Navy 14
Oct 29, 2011, 9:24 PM EDT
With a tip of the cap to Mark Twain, perhaps the reports of Notre Dame's internal revolt were greatly exaggerated.

After big Purdue win, focus shifts to Air Force
Oct 3, 2011, 12:23 PM EDT
The Notre Dame victory over Purdue was an important one. For the Irish to play the kind of football they know they can, they need to have games like last Saturday's, where the superior team enacts its will onto their opponent. The Irish did that, and they took a big step forward, pushing them to…
Tuesdays with BK: Purdue edition
Sep 28, 2011, 12:44 AM EDT
Okay, people — who's ready to turn the corner from bickering about a quarterback controversy that only exists in the hearts and minds of Irish fans? (This guy!) While there will be plenty of time for us to keep picking away at the play behind center, Brian Kelly and the Irish continued to trudge forward,…
Five things we learned: Notre Dame 15, Pitt 12
Sep 24, 2011, 6:00 PM EDT
The recipe for disaster was there. Eight penalties for 85 yards. Another lost turnover battle, 2-0. Drive killing mistakes. But Saturday turned out differently, with Notre Dame beating Pittsburgh 15-12 thanks to a great fourth quarter drive by Tommy Rees, who up until that point was held captive by a blitzing Panthers defense. It was…
Tuesdays with BK: Moving on to Pitt
Sep 20, 2011, 3:32 PM EDT
With a win against Michigan State in the rearview mirror, the Irish and head coach Brian Kelly move on to Pittsburgh and Todd Graham, who put himself on the map last year when his Tulsa team can to Notre Dame and shocked the Irish 28-27 last October. The win propelled a Tulsa team that was 4-3…
Pregame Six Pack: Late night with Michigan
Sep 9, 2011, 4:30 PM EDT
So Lucy pulled the football out from under us last Saturday, adding a measure of cruelty to the loss that was incredibly difficult to see coming. (Unfortunately, part of me saw it coming.) With a painful first L in the opening ledger of the season, Notre Dame must turn the page to a team that's…
Crist vs. Rees: Breaking down Tommy's throws
Sep 7, 2011, 2:04 AM EDT
Brian Kelly named Tommy Rees the starting quarterback for Saturday against Michigan. It was a decision that made plenty of sense from a production point of view — Rees went 24 of 34 for 296 yards in the second half, when everyone in the stadium knew Rees would be passing to catch up, in conditions…

I caught up with State Sen. Vincent Hughes on Sunday afternoon by phone — he had spent the weekend in Selma, Alabama, joining the 50th anniversary celebration of the "Bloody Sunday" march that led to the passage of the Voting Rights Act, and was driving with former Massachusetts Gov. Deval Patrick to the airport to return home.
"Pretty powerful," Hughes, the Philadelphia Democrat, told me. "Pretty powerful to stand on the same ground where, 50 years ago, people were beat in the head … just to secure the right thing, was just a powerful thing."
"People took charge of their own destiny, and they changed the country in a meaningful way," Patrick added. "That's an important lesson about the power we have when we look up instead of looking down." Read more »

The Fixer: Better steer clear of that pothole
New rules on the process used to consider negligence claims against the city will be in place early in 2012
|Report an Error
Share via Email
Filing a damage compensation claim against the city will soon be easier, but there is no guarantee that even the most legitimate of claims will be paid.
Toronto ombudsman Fiona Crean's report on the city's denial of almost all claims for damage compensation included recommendations to improve the process that were unanimously approved last month by city council.
The city has committed to improving its service standards by Jan. 31, which includes providing information to help claimants prove their case and a clear explanation of the information that forms the basis for a denied claim.
Crean found that more than 90 per cent of small claims for compensation for damage to vehicles by potholes, flooding from sewer backups and fallen tree limb damage were dismissed by the city's insurance adjustor.
In most cases, the claim was rejected without even a cursory investigation, while files were routinely closed after 60 days without notifying the person who made the claim.
An overwhelming 95 per cent of compensation claims for vehicle damage by potholes were rejected over a five-year period, based on the city's insistence that it met minimum road maintenance standards.
It mirrors dozens of complaints to us from readers, who said their claim was dismissed with a form letter saying they didn't prove the city was negligent, but offered no information on the standards used to reject the claim.
Consideration of claims by the city adjustor will be more transparent, but Crean emphasized in an interview that her recommendations are limited to the process.
Pothole claims are usually denied on the basis that the city met minimum road maintenance standards, which will still leave the claimant to prove that the city failed to meet those standards.
Even in municipalities where road maintenance information is provided to people to back up their claim, it doesn't result in a significantly higher level of paid claims, her report found.
With pothole season just around the corner, the best advice we can offer is for drivers to steer around them, and don't get their hopes up if they hit one and file for damages.

I have a question about the recipe "Mango Semifreddo with Salted Pistachios" from Shri. From the photo it looks like the "mango pulp" is pureed before adding to the cream, is this correct?
Tarragon -
That is correct. If you have sweet mangoes, I will definitely go for it but I made this recipe multiple times - With good and the sour Mangoes and the canned pulp. This time, I bought the mangoes in Indian stores and I was happy. If you cannot buy the smaller and juicier ones, you can buy the Pulp that you get in cans! I never went wrong with the Pulp, honestly!
