Lagunitas Sucks
Their words, not mine. Also their words
Originally brewed in 2011 as a Brown Shugga' substitute, due to construction-induced capacity issues. But we liked it so much it had to make a return trip.
So here we have Lagunitas Sucks, a brew boasting a complex malt backbone and a whopping dose of hops to make it a double IPA.
Pours a bit lighter and crisper than expected. The frothy white head doesn't stick around for long. Hops completely dominate the aroma. Yeah, a double IPA for sure. Hop oils assault the palate. Grapefruit and pine, mostly. Hint of heat from the 7.8% ABV. Rye comes through a bit in the finish. But this is all about the hops. Surprisingly, it's only 65 IBUs. Thought this would push closer to 100.
Hop heads, get it!
Grade: A
Lagunitas Little Sumpin' Sumpin' Ale
Just looking at the label, I have no idea what to expect from Lagunitas's Little Sumpin' Sumpin' Ale.
Pours kind of a hazy gold with a fluffy white head. Smells like honey, hops, and wheat. My first taste is about the same. It's kind of like a wheat IPA. There's some grapefruit, some grass, a little bit of malt sweetness, and long, dry, biting finish.
You'd never guess it's 7.5% ABV.
I definitely get more IPA than wheat, which is probably why I like it! Overall, it's different, certainly worth a try. Very drinkable, especially for its ABV. I'd do this again, but I wouldn't go crazy looking for it.
Grade: B
Lagunitas Hairy Eyeball
A beer called Hairy Eyeball would have to be brown, wouldn't it?
With a big head, this brew from Lagunitas is a deep brown with copper edges. The nose is very malty with dark fruit and some hot alcohol.
Big and malty like a Trappist quad, there are a ton of complex flavors going on here. Sweet malt, dark fruit, butterscotch, and a dry finish that presents some hop character.
Very smooth and creamy, this is an outstanding beer, and the best I've had from Lagunitas.
Grade: A
Lagunitas Little Sumpin' Wild Ale
The hops hit you immediately with Lagunitas Sumpin' Wild Ale. Clear straw color with a big white head that doesn't stick around for long. Checking in at more than 70 IBUs, there is a bit of a lip pucker factor with the huge hop flavor. But there is some sweetness in there, too, and a hint of cherries, even. As it warms I'm getting some wheat malt coming through, which is adding a nice layer of flavor.
Overall, it's good, but the hops dominate everything else.
Grade: B
Lagunitas Censored Copper Ale
This is the first beer I have tried from Lagunitas, the Censored Copper Ale. True to its name, it pours a copper color with a thin white head. Smells of malt, some warm spice, maybe even a hint of vinegar. The vinegar, thankfully, isn't in the taste. Malt and spice, bitter hops, a hint of orange, some sweet grain, then bitter hops again. A lot going on in just one taste!
The more I'm having of this, the more I like it. It's complex, yet balanced. Full and aggressive, but not overpowering.
If you're wondering about the censored, it's actually called Kronik. Apparently that isn't OK, but hemp beers are.
I'd do this again
Grade: B

While budget-conscious executives can save money by staying in serviced apartments and corporate housing, there is less room to maneuver when it comes to airfare. The cost of business-class flights can be one of the greatest expenses faced by executives seeking to travel internationally, and finding cost-effective fares without compromising on quality can be a significant challenge. New developments in the aviation industry could have a lasting impact on the business travel sector in the coming year.
Solidifying positions Business Travel News reports that officials at Delta Airlines and Virgin Atlantic are currently discussing the possibility of a collaborative transatlantic partnership. The potential arrangement is still being examined by regulatory professionals, but should the move be given the green light, both carriers would cement their position as leading airlines for business travelers.
Delta and Virgin Atlantic's collaboration will involve the sharing of routes between the U.S. and the U.K., one of the busiest corporate routes in the world. In addition to coordinating flights, the collaboration would also incorporate a revenue sharing scheme and joint initiatives to promote corporate sales. The discussions follow Delta's successful acquisition of Singapore Airlines' 49 percent share in Virgin Atlantic, which was valued at approximately $360 million.
"The partnership allows both carriers to offer a greatly expanded network at Heathrow and to overcome slot constraints, which have limited the growth and competitive capability of both airlines," read a statement from the two airlines, as quoted by the news source. "The two carriers will operate a total of 31 peak-day roundtrip flights between the U.K. and North America, 23 of which operate at London Heathrow."
Intense competition According to The New York Times, the move is seen as a direct bid to challenge British Airways' significant market share of business flights to and from the U.K. The partnership will result in increased service between major financial hubs such as London and New York, with flights departing every 15 minutes. This could be seen as a positive thing for frequent business travelers, but it remains to be seen how the partnership will affect the price of executive-class seats.
Many experts in the aviation industry claim that Delta's move to take a greater share of the transatlantic market has been well timed. The lingering financial instability of Delta's main competitor American Airlines has meant that Delta is well positioned to assume a greater share of the fiercely competitive transatlantic business flight market.

"Enjoyable Read"
If you're looking for a cutesy, Nancy Drew novel, this is not the book for you. It's clever and witty, with laugh out loud moments. The protagonist is messed up (which we can tell by the summary), she gets her life in order in the end, possibly leaving room for a sequel. If you're looking for a flowery romance with a stereotypical ending, you may disappointed. Although, that's what I was expecting, and nevertheless enjoyed the ending. I enjoyed the Nancy Drew references and comparisons, and the main characters clutzy cuteness. I will definitely listen to this story again at some point.
"Can't Wait For The Next One"
The story line was much more than I expected from Harlequin Spice. There was passion, intrigue and great sex. It combines erotic sexual scenes, with heart-twisting background stories, passion love and warmth, that left me wanting more. I can't wait until Sam's Creed comes! I'm definitely in love with the author and the Narrator did a great job. I wish audible carried more of Sarah McCarty's books.

Colt Single Action Army P1950 (MD)
I just purchased a new Colt SA Army Model P1950, serial number S559XXA. It has a 5.5" barrel in caliber 44-40 and has a blue/case color finish. Other than that is there anything particularly noteworthy about this firearm? I bought it because it was at a good price and I've always wanted to have one.

Congrtulations on your new purchase. Did tou buy this gun as a shooter or did you have some storage area at home that needed filled? Thats a great model you picked up for all around use. My first Colt was a 5 1/2" 45 Colt 27 years ago. In this last month I purchased 2 Colt SAA's both have the screw from the front holding the base pin in rather than the cross pin method. Both are in 45 Colt, one is a 4 5/8" and the other is a 3" ejectorless Sheriff's model.The "44-40" or shall I say what Colt cant say "44WCF" is a great cartridge but incase your interested you can also have a 44 Special cylinder fit to your gun by Colt for not to bad a price. I cant say enough good things about the new breed of 3rd Gen. guns mine are great.

Thanks for the info. Maybe you can help me understand a small point. I called Colt to find out the bore dia. and throat size. They refused to tell me. In your experience is Colt now using .429" or .427" for their 44-40 bores? I suspect the former since they are offering to fit a 44 Spl. cylinder. I also suspect they have standardized on ~.430"-.431" throat size. Do you know?

Don't know what size bore they're using but would not assume either way. The .44Spl cylinder is not any indication, as they've done so for several years and USFA offers same. Not a big deal to push a .44Spl bullet down a traditional .44-40 bore. Only way to find out for sure is to slug it.

Are these Colt cylinders readily swappable between 44-40 & 44 Spl ??
Never taken one off so just do not know what it takes- |

Oldfalguy, I bought my 45 ACP cylinder from Peacemaker Specialist and fit it myself. It just required a little bit of careful stoning on the barrel end of the bushing and it went right in. This cylinder works in 4 of my Colts 2 just right and the other 2 have a .006" barrel cylinder gap.

Four days after they went missing, the bodies of Mohammed Ahmad Laban, 17, Mohammed Al Madhoun, 16, and Ahmad Banat, 15, finally arrived. But the sight of their lifeless bodies brought only question marks for Palestinians, who have deep suspicions as to the boys� final fate.
According to doctor Muawiyeh Hassanein, director general of Gaza City�s Shifa Hospital emergency ward, examination of the bodies showed that Mohammed Luban had been brutally tortured on all parts of his body, in particular the head, which suffered from wounds and breaks. No brain was inside the cavity, said Hasanein, nor were there eyes in the sockets. Only the outer skin of the face was left. There were also long deep gashes on Luban�s extremities, most likely the doing of a sharp instrument such as a knife or axe.
Hasanein says that the boy died from the knife wounds, despite having been shot first. The doctor also said Luban was beaten before he was killed. The other boys� showed similar signs of torture, with broken bones and long deep gashes apparent on their bodies.
Before being delivered to Palestinians on January 2, the three bodies underwent an autopsy at Israel�s Abu Kbir forensics center on December 31, according to the report accompanying them. In addition, some of the major organs were missing from their bodies.
The three boys disappeared on December 30, when residents of Gaza had risen to the news that six citizens were killed in Beit Lahiya and Beit Hanoun in northern Gaza. But the identities of three of those killed remained a mystery until four days later.
By January 2, Al Quds newspaper was reporting that Palestinian Authority military commander of northern Gaza Colonel Salem Darawna had called on the Americans to intervene with Israel for the handing-over of the bodies.
Darawna accused Israel of a cover-up in their delay of the handover. The Israeli army was busy saying that the boys had attempted to attack a military outpost with automatic machineguns and explosives. Darawna charged that if this were true, Israel would have handed the bodies over to the Palestinians immediately.
The mystery was short-lived. On Thursday morning, Israeli authorities delivered the bodies of the three teenagers. Their families were shocked. The Shifa hospital autopsy showed that not only were signs not consistent with the Israeli story of the armed clash, but that organs had been stolen from the bodies without permission of the families.
Hassanein questions why the boys were autopsied in Abu Kbir in this way. He said that this kind of medical dissection is usually done to train students on the methods of autopsy, with organs being kept for further tests and study. He said that there was no reason for this kind of autopsy in this case because the cause of death was very clear. The three were shot and wounded, stabbed and beaten to death.
Head of the Palestinian Center for Human Rights in Gaza Raji Sourani calls this �a new kind of Israeli crime for the record.� He says that by all standards of legal and human rights, this was an unlawful killing of children. �What we found out after seeing the bodies was that one of them was severely disfigured; most likely a tank rolled over it. The other bodies were also badly disfigured.�
Sourani says that the families of the three boys have commissioned his center to speak directly to the Israeli legal advisor and demand that he open an investigation into the deaths. In addition, his center has approached the Special Rapporteur for Human Rights in the Occupied Territories John Dugard, who deals with such cases.
The families� suffering has not yet ended. First, they were beside themselves with no knowledge of their sons� whereabouts for the four days before their deaths were announced. Then they experienced the shock and outrage at what they saw. Mohammed Banat�s mother since suffered a nervous breakdown and lies in a hospital bed over the death of her child. While the three boys once played in the alleys of Sheikh Radwan neighborhood, they now rest quietly next to each other in death.

'Antiques Roadshow' Coming to Baton Rouge in July
Baton Rouge will be one of eight cities on the 2013 "Antiques Roadshow" summer tour.
Beth Courtney, president and CEO of Louisiana Public Broadcasting, says the popular show, viewed nationally by an estimated 10 million people per episode, will take over the River Center on July 27 for taping of three episodes.
Courtney told The Advocate there will be 6,000 free tickets available for the event. The tickets will be awarded in pairs through a lottery system. People can request or fill out a ticket application on the shows website at http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/roadshow/tickets.html.
The last time the show visited Louisiana was in 2002, when it made a stop in New Orleans.

there are difference betwen schematic and material list. can you clear it?
Very good apport!!!!!!!

Hello swagatam: i´m trying to mount the circuit; in correction, you rotate scr2. ???
Yes you are right, SCR2 is wrongly connected, just turn it round to make the connection right.

Hello swagataM:
I built upper circuit en work ok. I add temp (below circuit) and output TR2 is very low. ?????
Thanks - AnonymousApril 15, 2012 at 7:02 AM
Hello suagatam:
I like very much your circuit but it is highly dangerous! In eleectric fences, time pulses must be less than 10 ms; freq, 1 Hz aprox. If you review TEMP 555, Tm is greater than 10 ms. I suggest review design because it es a good aport. Please, let me know if I am wrong.
I think you may be right, I would appreciate of you could do the necessary corrections so that I can correct the diagram accordingly.
Regards.- AnonymousMay 27, 2012 at 9:40 AM
Hi Anonymous;
What IC do you think should be used in place of the 555 IC ?
Thanks - AnonymousNovember 23, 2013 at 7:17 PM
circuit is running off 50hz power supply.
power supply for Capacitive Discharge part of circuit is therefore at 50hz also.
the 555 is running from rectified source.
1 cycle at 50hz is 20 ms. 60hz a bit less.
the cdi only charges/discharges and fires on one half cycle.
that is 10 ms.
if the 555 is only on for 10ms, which allows the triac to conduct for only one half cycle...whats the problem?
the actual pulse from the coil is only around 50 MICROseconds long... a typical cdi spark duration.
and you would only have to change the CR(R) circuit on the 555 to alter the duty cycle. not really a major re design if required. which it isnt.
heres the problem. with ONLY 10ms long pulses...the triac may conduct on the wrong half cycle.
i personally would lengthen the pulse to 20-25 ms, just to ensure that at least one cycle of the correct waveform charges the capacitor in the CDI section, as there is apparently no synchronisation in this circuit.
if you removed the 555 and triac, the circuit would produce one 50 microsecond pulse, 50 times a second. (at 50hz) a simpler solution is to pulse TR2 directly with the IC555 via a transistor or a mosfet and eliminate TR1 entirely from the CDI circuit.

Thanks you for your confidence. I´ll try to do it soon.
Regards - AnonymousMay 4, 2012 at 12:23 AM
Hi Can I make this Energizer using just a 12v battery to keep horses in. Am I correct in thinking the circuit is intended for AC at 240 so if I leave the first transformer out and put 12v battery in will it still work as using direct current without other modifications ?
Regards ThanksRepliesHi,
If you leave out the first transformer, the second transformer would need a 12v AC for operating the energizer circuit.
Probably it's the second circuit which will function exactly as per your requirement, you may try it.
Regards.Oh yes.... you may eliminate TR1, in case you employ the second circuit.
- AnonymousMay 4, 2012 at 7:59 PM
wats d use of d capacitor, the one which is in parallel with IN4007?
ReplyDeleteReplieshello sir...
this is really nice... but how we can apply this to the fencing sir..?? i mean this circuit should be attached to normal fencing??Hello Siree,
Since this circuit involves high voltages, requires utmost care while applying to the fences, which must be accurately laid down as per the instructions.
Hello ! I have some rodents digging new holes almost on daily basis in my home lawn. I have tried my best to fill the holes with even broken glass bits, broken brick bits but they manage to dig new holes. The holes are about 2 inch wide and go deep in the ground. I tried simple mousetrap as well but failed.
And dogs getting the smell of the rodents also dig my lawn.
They all have created a mess.
I want to make an electric fencing used a 12 V power source + a motorcycle CDI unit and a motorcycle ignition coil.
I want to put this small 2 inch high fencing along the holes that rodents have made so that while going in and out they can get electrocuted.
Help me with circuit diagram please.

Hi Swagatam
I'm From Sri lanka.Our villages are facing life threaten problem because of elephant. in night people couldn't go out because elephants are hanging here and there. once a week a human die b'couse of elephant attack. What i really begging you give me a high voltage dc fence energizer circuit diagram to use each house . Must be low budget because our villages are very farmers.In my area we don't have ac power.We are using 12v battery power. Please give me a good solution. A simple high voltage unit can be made by cutting off the bottom inch or so of the coil.Connect negative as normal fasten coil in upright position on door post and run high voltage across the door. Knock nail into doorpost about half inch below the square iron core of the coil ,bend a strip of iron round nail and connect nail to battery positive. Let the iron strip rest on any fixed piece of metal with a wire going to the coil positive. It works thus, the positive current flows through the loose iron flap, which is resting on the metal connected to the coil positive. This energises the coil making tthe core magnetic and attracting the loose iron strip. this breaks the circuit and the loose iron strip rests on the metal connected to the coil and the circuit repeats itself. To improve it make the loose iron flap a weak spring and the system becomes portable
ReplyDeletePlease sir can send me a book in pdf or ppt from which i could from basics to higher level about electronics . I love electronics . Plese send it to firstname.lastname@example.com
thankyou- AnonymousDecember 29, 2012 at 11:25 PM
the circuit works great but please tell me the exact capacitor spec to be used to get the output - AnonymousFebruary 13, 2013 at 10:42 AM
excellent work with the electronic diagram. I am impressed with your patients toward others that are less fortunate, with meager resources and limited knowledge. It is easy to be impatient with others if a you can't understand the context of the writer and their immediate situation. In this world of profit and money, the poor who are the planets majority really need easy, cheap solutions to their problems. can you imagine having your sister killed by WILD ELEPHANTS while peeing in a dirt hole at 2am because "rich people" wouldn't explain a simple electrical schematic?
thank you from all of those that can't say it. - AnonymousMarch 1, 2013 at 11:22 PM
hey, i want to make one for my field fence i have unwanted horses in and i want them out, anyway. i have no idea what your talking about as i am not a technition haha and i am totally confused but really need to build one to get the eletric flowing. out of all the thing i have looked at yours seems to be the most explained. but i have no idea what any of them things are or where to get them i have a soilder iron and soilder ready haha.
Thankyou Can you please explain the connections to the fence wiring. You said:The two poles from the ignition coil connected to the fence wiring should be kept at least 2 inches apart.I did not get that part.
ReplyDeleteRepliesthe fence barb wires must be stretched through rigid non conductive pillars positioned close to one another in order to keep the wires tightly held.
all the barb wires must run parallel at a distance of about 6 inches from each other (not 2 inches actually).
The current from the above circuit must be fed to the alternate wires such that when an intruder touches any of the two barbs, the voltage gets a path through its body, and provides the required shock.
1. Sir what will be the output voltage of this circuit?
2. I want to use this circuit as a protection from rats in farms of villages, so the wires will be laid on the ground meshing throught the field. I want only the rats to be driven off and not cause much damage to humans in case the come in contact with it.
3. What other changes should I be making in order to use this circuit for this purpose. Should i use the first circuit or the second one.- AnonymousJune 29, 2013 at 8:06 PM
how exactly does the circuit of tr2 secondary work.. i mean what is the need of those diodes

Please, can you tell me how to connect normal car coil only two terminals feeds one positive one negative?
It's a pain that coil isn't electronic circuit.
And i suppose i'll not have to buy another type of coil.
Grateful for your response.
- AnonymousJuly 16, 2013 at 3:39 AM
Ok! thanks
Now i know positive terminal goes to C4.
I know the coil is autotransformer type.
I built all, the exiter with pwm, i have the 220 v pulses controlled
but how my interest is only for electronics experiments i would appreciate if you know where i can found some electronic explanation about the last section 220v - scr -diodes - cap and ht.
I experienced previously with only 110 v scr pulses but dont work and if now work will be some of magic circuit with the diodes ....
I suppose the pulse have to be of square quality and the capacitor is fundamental.
well grateful for your circuit i've kept pretty building itRepliesThe capacitor accepts and stores the 220V input, and in the process when the firing limit of the SCr is crossed, the SCR fires and shorts the capacitor leads across the connected winding of the coil discharging the cap voltage into the coil. This discharge is stepped-up by the coil to the specified levels at the high tension output....so this is how it works.

Mr majoomdar i m a farmer can i use it for our crop protection .will it be not dengerous for elephant dear tiger. Is it not making much voltase for wild animal.can v reduse it and how
ReplyDelete Hi Swagatam
1) According to the circuit description, the right transfo should be labelled TR2 and the the left one as TR1.
2) What is the purpose of the diode in the lower right corner, next to the capacitor?
3) Is it important to connect one lead of the primary to one lead of the secondary, of the 2nd transformer?Hi Swagatam
For my CDI bench test, I want to switch off the traic whenever there is trigger pulse. Please check if following configuration is OK:
I haven't used traic before so please suggest me suitable values for the resistors and how much collector current would be enough to operate BT136?dear sir
i want to make solar fence enegiser. i m from chemical field so don't have technical info.so plz guide me for the same. can we have ready made circuit for energiser?Hy Swagatam

This paper reports on the application of Artificial Neural Networks (ANN) to long-term load forecasting. The ANN model is used to forecast the energy requirements of an electric utility. It is then compared to time series models. The comparison reveals that the ANN produces results that are close to the actual data. The ANN model is then used to forecast the annual peak demand of a Middle Eastern utility up to the year 2006. The results compare favorably with the utility's forecast.

Definition of MALT lymphoma
MALT lymphoma: A low grade type of malignancy that arises in cells in mucosal tissue which are involved in antibody production. These lymphomas occur most often in the stomach but can also arise in the lung, thyroid, salivary glands, eye, skin, or soft tissues. MALT stands for mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue. MALT lymphomas are typically slow growing and are usually diagnosed at an early stage. They may be treated with low doses of radiotherapy or removed by surgery. If they have spread, they are treated with chemotherapy. The outlook is good, even when the disease is quite widespread.

The Four Pillars of the Paddlers World
By Farwell Forrest January 23, 2007
What do canoeists and kayakers have in common with the
academic philosophers of ancient Greece? More than you might think. Despite the 25
centuries that separate us, we share a common worldview, one that takes modern
paddlers very far from their familiar workaday world of traffic jams, shopping
malls, and cell phones. Or at least that's what I suggested two weeks ago. Is
this too much of a stretch? I don't think so. In brief, the world of the ancient
Greeks was constructed from only four elemental building blocks: water, earth, fire,
and air. These are very different from the 100-odd chemical elements known to modern
science, obviously, but the Greeks understood the world only through their unaided
senses. That's one of the things we have in common. Whenever we put our binoculars away and
shut off our GPS receivers,
we're transported to a world not too different from Aristotle's, a world in which
all knowledge comes from direct experience, a world that's always up close
and personal. Of course, we paddlers interpret the evidence of our senses in the
light of 21st-century understanding. We can't help that. But if we only step back a
bit, we find ourselves in a world much like the world of the ancient Greeks, a world
of water, earth, fire, and air.
Last time, I took a look at the first of these building blocks: water. It's
arguably the element that's most important to paddlers, but it doesn't stand alone.
So let's continue our exploration, beginning with
If water shapes the landscape and it does the land endlessly
returns the favor, channeling the moving water, sending it twisting back on
itself and turning it round, creating eddies and
plunge pools and holes. The eroded earth, in the guise of sediment, even gives
water the cutting tools it needs to shape the land. Water and earth are like two
partners in some cosmic dance. Each moves the other, sometimes by means of subtle
nudges, sometimes by brute force. And each is moved in turn. The Greeks didn't have
an analytic understanding of this hydrodynamic interplay, but they certainly had a
seat-of-the pants grasp of its implications. This was summed up in a wry observation
by the philosopher Heraclitus to the effect that "you can't step in the same river
twice." In other words, the river that wets your feet today is different from the
one that wetted your feet yesterday, in ways both small and large. Most paddlers
share this instinctive grasp of water's dynamic
nature, and while we'll never grapple with the intricacies of the van Karman
equation or study kolk generation, we can move our boats into midriver holes (and
out again!) with an easy grace born of long practice and deep understanding.
Earth also greets the paddler everywhere he turns, an infinitely varied boundary
uniting water and sky. From the dramatic cliffs of Maine's ironbound coast to the
seeming sameness and the sameness is only seeming of the James
Bay Lowlands, this endless spectacle of the mutable earth is one of the reasons why
we paddle. Few canoeists or kayakers would be content to thrash in circles around
the margin of a flooded quarry for very long. We thrive on the change and variety of the
wider world, the world beyond our immediate horizon. And many of the changes
that confront us as we travel are mediated by the third of Aristotle's four
Paddlers are no strangers to duality. After all, water erodes the land in one
place while it builds it up in another. And fire, like water, is simultaneously creator
and destroyer. The immediate effects of wildfire on ancient forests are terribly
familiar to many paddlers from first-hand observation. But fire's constructive role
is no less important, no less sweeping even if it is less obvious. The
all-consuming flames liberate nutrients locked up in mature trees, enriching
impoverished forest soils and stimulating new cycles of growth. Long before modern
science began to unravel the mysteries of nutrient recycling, early farmers
exploited this paradox of nature, using fire to clear fields in the middle of great
forests, fields which invariably yielded bumper crops. Nor is wildfire always an
instrument of total devastation. Many fires sow the seeds of regeneration even as
they destroy. This isn't a metaphorical flight of fancy. It's hard fact. Not until
they're heated by fire do the cones of lodgepole and jack pines open to release
their seeds. And what of the groves of birch and aspen that offer welcome relief
from the monotony of cedar, spruce, and pine on so many northern rivers? These, too,
are often the children of fire, the work of pioneer species whose only chance at
light and life comes when flames open a window in the everdark, evergreen canopy.
Fire also lifts
paddlers' spirits on cold, gray days in spring and fall, and sends
shadows dancing through the long half-light of northern summer evenings. The
flickering flames of the campfire warm us, cheer us, and entertain us. And that's no
surprise. From the ribald story of Raven's theft of the sun to the cautionary tale
of Prometheus, myths and legends remind us that the conquest of fire may well have
been the watershed event in man's evolutionary history. This much, at least,
is certain: Where not prohibited by regulation or precluded by common sense, a fire
remains the social center of any riverside or beachfront camp, a place of warmth and
joy and camaraderie. A fireless camp can be a chilly place indeed, even when no cold
wind blows.
Ah, yes. Wind. And what is wind, but moving
The last of our four elements. The Greeks were a seafaring people, sailors whose
lives were shaped and circumscribed by the wind's compass. Today's canoeists and
kayakers also keep a weather eye on the
wind. Not many of us sail though more of us could,
and should but as John McPhee once observed, we're united by a hatred of
headwinds. Few things do more to blight a day on the water than a strong,
relentless, contrary wind. The 19th-century voyageurs feared the wind more than
anything else, even going so far as to invest their invisible enemy with a malign
persona, the fickle, evil-tempered crone they christened la Vieille, the "Old
Woman." When they spoke of her at all, they whispered, hoping to get their canoes
safely across the big lakes before
she turned against them. True, the Old Woman sometimes smiled, swelling the square
sails that each canoe carried in hopes of just such a lucky break. More often,
however, she scowled and not infrequently she raged, sending icy waves
crashing over the gunwales of any overloaded canoe she caught in the middle of a
northern lake.
The Old Woman. La Vieille. The epithet is French, but the Greeks, whose
square-sailed triremes were no more weatherly than the voyageur's big canoes (or the
York boats that
replaced them), would have recognized her immediately. After all, they, too,
ventured out on the shining, shifting interface between water and air. And so do we.
The world of the ancient Greeks was a world of water, earth, fire, and air. And
this is the modern paddler's world, as well. It's a place that's best understood
and best appreciated by direct experience, a world that's open to
anyone, anywhere, requiring no passport other than a paddle. If canoeing and
kayaking are a form of elective anachronism, a voluntary return to an earlier and
simpler way of life, then the Greeks' four elements are enough for any paddler.
Canoeists and kayakers have no need for more.

Bullies Benefit from Family TherapyFamily therapy can help adolescent bullies improve their behavior. Saturday October 1st - 12:00am Filed Under:
ADHD Therapy,
Teens and Tweens with ADHD
Psychotherapy can help young bullies mend their ways - and therapy that involves the entire family is more effective than one-on-one therapy. That's the finding of a new study by Marius K. Nickel, M.D., a researcher at the Clinic for Psychosomatic Medicine in Simbach/Inn, Germany. Of the 22 adolescent male study participants, more than 50 percent met the criteria for AD/HD, oppositional defiant disorder, conduct disorder, or borderline personality disorder. After six months of family therapy, the boys were also less likely to smoke or to abuse drugs or alcohol. |

30 pages of toms, blood' yell, that's incredible.
And hooray for the trundle!
we cant grow tomatoes here unless they are in a glass house which i dont have. we potentially may have managed to grow some outdoors this summer as it was so freaky hot but i didnt have any plants in. i dont think the horse or the rabbits would have eaten them either. i should prob pay more attention next year. in fact, i will try to do more veges next year. i do have a decent supply of wild watercress, puha, native spinach and also LOL seaweed i can fossick. plus some southern glasswort or samphire to the gourmet crowd. if i put in some maori potatoes and some garlic, i pretty much am done.

Tomato Seeds - Organic Heirloom Tomato Seeds and Heirloom Tomatoes do 600 varieties and i can get the seed sent here. biosecurity let it in if it is declared. unreal choices. too many even. of the lot i got a few years back when i had access to a glass house i think black prince was everyone's fave.
tomatoes are a tropical plant, even a light freeze will kill them, so I only grow them spring/sumer. I have a greenhouse, but it is an "unheated" house so if temps get below freezing at night it can/will freeze in the house. most of the stuff you listed, I would have to look up, as those names are unfamiliar to me. From the pics I've seen of NZ... very green and lush, so I suspect the land is very fertile, and growing things there would be easy.
Yeah, not quite as hardcore as illicit booze or drugs, you could be waiting a long time for someone to score some toms!
morning Doc - howz everything in the hood ??????
I haven't seen a topless piccy yet !!!!!!!!!!!
"never let the truth get in the way of a good story "
...small steps....
I've grown many heirloom tomatoes... I love them.
But one of my favorites is a little one, not cherry just small (like palm sized) but in longish clusters kind of like a cherry, called Juane Flamme.
Good LORDSSS I tell you it's GOOD!
Orange/gold outside, red inside... strong bold tomato flavor.
Makes a brilliant ORANGE sauce... Though. I only ever manages that once.
Hell, they rarely made it in the house. I tended to shove them into my mouth, whole and hot and decadent, right out in the yard.
Crap. Now I want more of them, and will not have the. this year.
Plan ahead: order seeds!

I think maybe I like it because it's not light on the acid like some more modern hybrids are... it's got some tang.
Tomato with a zip.
I think that descriptions 3-4oz fruits is a bit generous... maybe a few 4oz. mostly 2-3oz.
It's a dryer tomato... not hugely water/juicy. But glorious IMO. The flavor concentrates in the juices it does have.

Final Score: Phoenix 82, Minnesota 80
Phoenix, AZ (SportsNetwork.com) - A showdown between the WNBA's best two teams ended with a block.
But before that were the shots.
Diana Taurasi hit the go-ahead jumper to counter Maya Moore's game-tying shot, and the Phoenix Mercury held on for an 82-80 win over the Minnesota Lynx on Saturday night.
Brittney Griner's dramatic block of Lindsay Whalen's reverse layup attempt at the buzzer sealed the outcome and ended Minnesota's 11-game winning streak one victory short of a franchise record.
The playoff-bound teams -- 26-4 Phoenix leads Minnesota by 2 1/2 games in the Western Conference -- played for the fourth time this season and the Mercury came away with their third win.
Taurasi had 24 points a day after signing an extension and Phoenix extended its franchise-best home winning streak to 14 games. Griner added 19 points and 11 rebounds and DeWanna Bonner scored 16.
Moore poured in 30 points, the last two on a tough runner in the lane with 7.7 left that she got to drop despite considerable contact near the foul line.
Taurasi's eventual winner came from the high left side with 2.4 seconds left.
The Lynx had already beaten the Mercury during their streak -- a victory on July 31 that snapped Phoenix's own 16-game win streak.

Spire campaign mastermind dies; Holy Trinity's extrovert ex-vicar mourned.
Byline: LUCY WILSONFORMER Coventry vicar the Very Rev Lawrence Jackson, who was described as one of the best preachers of his generation and helped to lead the campaign to save Holy Trinity's spire, has died.
Mr Jackson, of Newbold on Stour, near Shipston, south Warwickshire, died on Friday, aged 76.
He began his ministry in Leicester and was vicar of Holy Trinity Church, in Coventry city centre, from 1965 to 1973.
During that time, he was active in the community as a school governor and as a member of the National Health Executive Council, Coventry Rotary Club, Coventry Round Table, Coventry Freemen's Guild and the Coventry Organists' Association.
From 1968 to 1973, he was rural dean of Coventry North.
Mr Jackson moved to Blackburn, Lanca- shire, in 1973, where he was appointed the cathedral provost and masterminded a fund-raising drive for the restoration of the cathedral.
He retired in 1992, when he and his wife Faith went to live in Newbold on Stour. But he maintained his Coventry connections over the next couple of years, running the successful Save the Spire appeal for Holy Trinity.
Diocesan communications officer the Very Rev Lawrence Mortimer said: "He was the best preacher of his generation in the Church of England.
"His sermons were at once extremely entertaining and got over the point that life is more than just a joke."

Needs a better name as it isn't a "giant" per se. Rolandius (talk - contr) 07:25, 3 August 2009 (UTC)
- Yeah, but that's the name Blizzard gave, so tough. -- Dark T Zeratul (talk) 07:44, 3 August 2009 (UTC)
- On the other hand, I'm not really sure that "gigantic" needs to link to "giant," for exactly the same reason Rolandius suggested renaming them. -- Dark T Zeratul (talk) 08:50, 3 August 2009 (UTC)

Best Places to Hang Mini Chandeliers
A glistening chandelier can add that little extra something to your home decor, but you don't need to go big to make a huge style statement.

Best Chandeliers for Your Home
Whether you like antique or contemporary styles, chandeliers can dress up many different rooms. It's easy to update your bedroom with a striking pendant chandelier, or add a crystal chandelier to the dining room for extra sparkle.

Top 5 Chandelier Styles
Whether you are building your dream house or just sprucing up your current home, a chandelier is a great way to add ambiance and decoration to a room. Chandeliers and pendants aren't just for formal dining rooms. The right chandelier can look great in any room. Although chandeliers come in a wide variety of styles, let's start with the top five.
How to Clean a Chandelier
Chandeliers can be the stunning focal point of your room, but these dramatic light fixtures are also great at collecting dust and cobwebs. You can keep your chandelier sparkling by dusting it regularly and cleaning it thoroughly twice a year. To learn how to clean your chandelier using both the wet and dry methods, keep reading.
4 Things to Consider When Buying Chandelier Earrings
You're wearing your favorite 1960s-inspired dress and a pair of cute wedge sandals, but something is missing. Add just the right amount of color and shine with a shimmery new pair of chandelier earrings. Chandelier earrings get their name from their design, which mimics elaborate chandelier light fixtures. They may have tiers of sparkling, swinging gemstones or they may have layers of hammered gold medallions. Each chandelier earring style is unique and offers a bold splash of style. They go great with dresses but can also be worn with jeans and suits. To choose the perfect pair of chandelier earrings, consider these important features.
Chandelier Trends
Looking for a way to simultaneously brighten and dress up your home? Chandeliers are the perfect solution. Chandeliers are available with many arms, multiple tiers, and shades as well as with more simple designs and streamlined structures. Look for a chandelier light with a large presence for a big room and one with a smaller profile to use in a diminutive room; the size of your chandelier doesn't matter, only its size in comparison to the rest of your home decor.
Top 5 Ways to Wear Citrine Chandelier Earrings
If you love to dress in dark, neutral colors year-round, then add some citrine chandelier earrings to your wardrobe.

How to Choose a Chandelier
Chandeliers are more than just a way to illuminate a room. They add style and become part of the home decor. Like any decorative piece, the right chandelier can make a big difference in the look and feel of a room. A large or ornate chandelier will overwhelm a small living space, and a small, simple one will not look right in a formal dining room. Here's how to choose the best lighting for your home.
Buying Chandelier Lighting for Your Dining Room
Chandeliers are the ultimate statement piece in a house. From giant crystal chandeliers that hang from high ceilings to simple styles that reside over a family dining table, lighting fixtures have the ability to make a room glow. A chandelier that is not right for your space can seem weighed down and heavy. The wrong chandelier can also lack drama that helps make a room fabulous. If your chandelier is looking old and outdated, it might be time to update with a new style.
Choosing a Wall Sconce for Your Bedroom
One of the most versatile options for adding a lighting fixture to your bedroom is a wall sconce. When mounted to any wall in the room, these lights create a soft ambiance and can be used to highlight architectural features in the home. Complement your home decor by choosing a wall sconce for your bedroom that follows the same style.
Best Light Fixtures for Your Dining Room
Serve guests stylishly in the dining room when you buy elegant light fixtures to eat by. Whether you want wall lighting fixtures to create a subtle glow on special occasions or hanging light fixtures for a fancier look, the following suggestions will help you find the perfect home lighting options for your home. Read on to learn about the best light fixtures for your dining room.
Best Bedroom Lighting Ideas
Decor trends come and go, but your bedroom lighting should transcend the look-of-the-moment to suit your bedroom's various functions. When planning bedroom lighting design, consider the space's natural lighting first, and then determine which parts of the room benefit most from general lighting, task lighting, accent lighting and ceiling fans.
How to Choose Light Fixtures for a Bathroom
When you decide to update the light fixtures in your home, the bathroom might be the last room that comes to mind. However, when you take into account that this is the room in which you likely prepare for the day as well as the place you go to soak away your stress, you will probably recognize the importance of selecting the right bathroom lighting. Designing the lighting in your bathroom is largely a matter of personal taste, but there are a couple of things to keep in mind while you shop.
Tips on Maintaining Your Bronze Bathroom Fixtures
The rich look of oil-rubbed bronze bathroom faucets is an upscale addition to any bathroom style. The copper-red color has a rustic feel, giving the bathroom a warm, inviting feel. Bronze bathroom fixtures are more corrosion resistant than their iron, brass and cast-iron counterparts, but they still require some upkeep. Keeping bronze bathroom fixtures looking shiny and new requires several maintenance and care steps, as moisture and harsh cleaning solutions can easily damage bronze bathroom hardware. Here are a few tips on maintaining your bronze bathroom faucets and other bath fixtures.

Maybe it is a regional difference, but in my family we eat a fair bit of fish and only very rarely is it from fresh water. We mostly eat tuna (steaks, not canned, thunnus thynnus), swordfish (xiphias gladius), halibut (hippoglossus stenolepis), striped bass (roccus saxatilis), mahi mahi (coryphaena hippurus), sometimes bluefish (pomatomus saltatrix) if very fresh, flounder (platichthys flesus), and even codfish (gadus callarius). And of course, various salmon, mostly the Atlantic variety (salmo salar).
Most of the striped bass, bluefish, and flounder that we eat we catch ourselves. The others come from the fishmarket. I remember when we could still catch cod off the coast of New England, but that's rare now. The Portuguese fishermen that settled in New Bedford and Fall River were too good at what they did -- so the cod are very depleted. But I have heard promising reports that they are returning to the Banks.
Share a recipe?
John, my wife that day bought a Dourada, Guilthead, that she cooked au Sel.
We ask the fish market lady to clean the inside of the fish, BUT leave the scales on.
She also cuts the fins and tail. And leave the head on.
My wife the washes it, and sprays lemon inside, and adds a table spoon of butter inside, and sprinkles some parsley and coriander.
She then lays the fish in salt, and covers it all with salt, completely. The fish is cooked inside the salt.
She then bakes it in the oven, altough lately she's been usin a new kitchen tool I bought her called Thermomix,
click here
its a machine that cooks by induction I think ,and lately she has been steaming the fish. And the vegetables bellow it at the same time.
The result of leaving the scales on is that the fish stays very moist and tender, and when you remove the salt, that with the heat became a thick crust, it peels the fish skin off. The scales help maintain the moisture inside the fish.
She serves with boiled potatoes, sauted in butter with parsley and other spices I don't know the name.
She serves with boiled carrots. and we drink an excellet wine to follow.

Green girls volleyball team enjoying improved season
GREEN — First-year Green High School girls volleyball head coach Lisa Pafford said the No. 1 aspect of the game her team has been working on improving this season is "communication on the court."
"It is the key to everything," the coach said. "We are working on functioning better as a team and working hard on defense. We are hoping to improve on this 4-10 record they have had for [each of] the last three years. And we already have, as we are [7-7]."
Pafford said the quality of Green's play this season has surprised everyone but themselves.
"Our great team work is shocking some of the better teams in our league by competing at a level they did not expect," she stated. "Our record of [7-7] is close to the goal we set for ourselves this year."
The strength of this year's team, Pafford said, is strong leadership from some of the squad's returning players.
"I have six seniors: Lauren Rossiter (middle blocker), Hannah Smith (middle blocker), Megan Hohlbaugh (outside hitter), Katie Racco (outside hitter), Heather Daniels (libero) and Autumn Seymour (defensive specialist). These girls are strong leaders and hard workers," the coach said. "My junior setter, Michelle Daugherty, is a returning player; however, she has a new role as a 5-1 setter. She has a great presence on the court and incredible instincts for the game."
According to Pafford, Smith's play as a middle blocker has been the team's biggest surprise so far this season.
"She has had to make the biggest adjustment," the coach said. "I had moved her into the middle blocker position this year — one she has never played and the hardest to learn in such a short time — and she has completely risen to the challenge and then some. She has transitioned flawlessly."
Overall, Pafford said, this year's team has "a good mix" of returning players and newcomers.
"I have a great group of freshmen coming up," she said. "I have two freshmen currently on varsity: defensive specialist Myla Lukes and outside hitter Carly Rossiter. They have amazing skills and contribute in a big way to the team."
Pafford said building the team's core of young players will be crucial as Green gears up to switch leagues in a few years.
"We will be going to the Federal League in 2015," she said. "And over the next couple of years, we will be rebuilding with the expectation of being competitive in that league."
As for the remainder of the current season, Pafford said the team's goals for this season are "improving everyday as a team in skills, quickness and mentally."
"I am so proud of how these girls have stepped up this year and shown who they are and what they can achieve together," she said.
