The front page of today's Dallas Morning News has a story about "Values lobbyists have White House's ear" in which Richard Land, chief lobbyist for the Southern Baptist Convention, features prominently.
There's not much in the article that is new to anyone who has observed the activities of Richard Land and the other religious right lobbyists that were mentioned. Most Baptists, however, have not paid attention to what the Ethics and Religious Liberty Commission of the SBC has been doing since Land and the Fundamentalists took charge. The article should make it obvious that they have been working to destroy separation of church and state.
That their mission is nearly accomplished is apparent from a quote from Lou Sheldon who said, the "fusion of religion and morality and public policy has now come about."

I have a question concerning the Necro Fissure armor.
If you buy the scar pattern (that doesn't require shards) does it look just like the "normal" necro fissure??? Can you buy scars for the whole body? I saw a screenie from the forgemaster and he only had chest scar pattern and face scar pattern.
Thanks in advance!

Chapman to the DL with shoulder inflammation Jordan Smith recalled
I was wondering if we would get a phantom DL stint. Should have called it a psychological issue or something. Kid just can't throw strikes.
Volquez should be the next to go. He's obviously got the same malady. Maybe it's contagious?
Ya I kinda figured we'd opt to DL him rather than send him down.
So, I can understand losing the strike zone, and he lost it big, but the loss of velocity makes me think there could be a bit of a phyical problem. His motion looked either manipulated to find the zone, or funny due to pain.
Chapman should be a starter. I'm now convinced. After the 15 day. Send him to Louisville and watch him start every 5th day until he derserves to be in the rotation.
Would have liked to see the Reds call this guy up and see what he can do..
Jeremy M. Horst
Until recently the wheels came off, not sure if it is truley a injury or a way to move players around until he finds out whats wrong mentally,mechanically. Either way, he has to prove he can handle the grind of a 100 pitch outing every 5th day. Not just throwing, but throwing for strikes. We dont need another Edison out there. As of now he hasnt proven that to me.

A powerful senator dies after a prolonged illness. His soul arrives in heaven and is met by St. Peter at the entrance. "Welcome to Heaven," says St. Peter. "Before you settle in, it seems there is a problem. We seldom see a high official around these parts, you see, so we're not sure what to do with you." "No problem, just let me in," says the senator."Well, I'd like to but I have orders from higher up. What we'll do is have you spend one day in Hell and one in Heaven. Then you can choose where to spend eternity." "Really, I've made up my mind. I want to be in Heaven." "I'm sorry but we have our rules," replies St. Peter.And with that, St. Peter escorts him to the elevator and he goes down, down, down to Hell. The doors open and he finds himself in the middle of a green golf course. Nearby are all his friends and other politicians who had worked with him. Everyone is in evening attire and very happy to see him. They run to more...

I agree Mpeg2 sucks when not given enough space... but Crank and even Kung Fu Hustle (to a lesser degree) still look pretty awesome (especially Crank which looks freaking amazing). I am not saying "GIMME MPEG2 4 EVA!", but I don't mind it on some titles so long as I get the same PQ for the most part.

Album Summary
Notes & Reviews:
Dutton presents the world première recording of Bax's "symphony number zero." The piano score of Arnold Bax's Symphony in F of 1907 was completed by its composer but never orchestrated, and has long been one of the great might-have-beens of the British symphonic repertoire, along with Elgar's Third Symphony and E.J. Moeran's second. Unlike Elgar and Moeran, Bax actually completed his symphony, and now Martin Yates has set it into full score, managing to catch the elusive, idiomatic sound of Bax's orchestra in a convincing way we never expected to hear. The glorious second movement in particular, on a similar scale to his many later tone poems, is revealed as a striking and poetic creation in which Bax finds his voice.
MusicWeb International, 7th February 2014
A young man's symphony written when his ideas flowed urgently like milk and honey. This is cause for joy among Baxians. Loquacious, self-indulgent, gorgeous and densely luxuriant as it is, you would do well to hear it.
BBC Music Magazine, May 2014
Yates's orchestration of Bax's massive work is entirely in keeping with the composer's exuberant early strivings...this profligate creation, never heard in public, has risen from the dead, and can be weighed analysed, and savoured.

Governor Dayton Proclaims December 5-9 Inclusive Schools Week
Educators recognize that each child is unique, learns differently, and, therefore, learns better if teaching is tailored to their abilities and interests.

"It is very important that every classroom is high performing and inclusive," said Education Commissioner Brenda Cassellius. Every child in Minnesota deserves access to a quality education that is reflective of the communities that we live in. I applaud Governor Dayton in recognizing this important effort."

Senses Fail songwriter draws inspiration from his own pain
These days, Nielsen said he is doing better, but he still deals with some of his emotional problems on a daily basis.
"I was dealing with a lot of personal issues of self control and things like that I've definitely overcome and dealt with," he said. "I do still have anxiety and I still do have depression and I'm back on medication, so that's an ongoing struggle kind of thing. But a lot of the issues have definitely been resolved as far as some that are directly talked about on the record."
Ironically, Nielsen said his own turmoil and the dark nature of the music have never really carried over to Senses Fail's live concerts.
"The live show is very fun," he said. "I don't know. I don't transfer a lot of emotion from the songs into the live show. It's weird, because our music is kind of depressing and dark, but you'll come and see us and we're laughing on stage and making jokes and like a lot of the between-song banter is very lighthearted. It's strange, because the music is very serious, but when you come to see us live … it's not so much of a dark and serious thing."

Kacey Musgraves
Written by Brandy Clark, Shane McAnally, and Kacey Musgraves
If you're already a fan of Kacey Musgraves, you've heard most of this before.
"Biscuits" combines elements of "Follow Your Arrow" and "The Trailer Song", advocating being yourself and minding your own business. Even the arrangement is a souped-up take on "Arrow", with more of a beat and quite a few more instrumental flourishes.

Hundreds dive into goal at Gilboa Quarry
THE BLADE/ANDY MORRISON Enlarge | Buy This Photo
Divers emerge from Gilboa Quarry in Putnam County, where hundreds of underwater enthusiasts sought Saturday to re-establish the Guinness record for the most number of divers to submerge at once.
THE BLADE/ANDY MORRISON Enlarge | Buy This Photo
Unofficially, 794 people donned diving gear to tackle the record. In February, 2006, an assembly of 979 divers submerged in the Indian Ocean near the Maldives, a group of 1,200 atolls south of India. Dive organizers said last week they believed they had enough commitments to break the record, but no-shows torpedoed the effort.

As the divers submerged and waited for their colleagues, some of them performed gymnastics feats, while others kept tabs on each other to ensure a safe experience. Most of the divers were from the United States, complemented by a large contingent from London, Ont. The 14- acre quarry is one of three dive sites in northwest Ohio frequented by divers.

I would recommend this machine
By Sukiee
from Lancashire
Easy little sewing machine. Hard work to get big machine threaded when this little machine works well. Cannot sew very heavy material but for hemming, curtains and light cotton to is great. Very light to carry. Only draw back there is no light on machine.

excellent value
By syl
from bolton
I bought this to redo some large vinyl covered seat cushions. Easy to set up and work, but getting the tension correct was a nightmare as the instructions are not very clear. Having not used a machine in over twenty years it all came back slowly, but still having problems with the tension. Apart from that, it runs well, is compact and not too heavy to carry. All in all, a good buy for someone who is not a professional

AES E-Library
Interfacing Electronics and Transformers
To achieve reasonable transformer performance a relatively large size and proper impedance matching is required. With special electronic circuit design one can overcome low frequency distortion to minimize transformer size while the ground isolating feature is completed by today's electronic performance, i.e., flat, distortion-free response independent of frequency and impedance matching. Basic problems and design for balanced and unbalanced signals are shown.

Windfarms - good for the environment, bad for house prices?
Windfarms: a new report says they may be good for the environment; but when it comes to house prices for properties in their immediate vicinity, then they certainly are not good. We've been to the site of England's largest onshore windfarm, opened by Ed Miliband, on the Romney Marsh.
Proposals to erect wind turbines in Dorset
Developers pull out of Isle of Wight wind turbines scheme
Developers have announced they've pulled out of proposals for five wind turbines on the Isle of Wight. The Dorset based company - Infinergy - had appealed against a decision by Isle of Wight planners to reject the Vectis Wind Farm. Each wind turbine would have stood 100 metres high.
More wind turbines for Kent coast
Approval has been given to extend the wind farm off the Kent coast. The decision by the Secretary of State for Energy and Climate Change means between 10 and 17 turbines will be put up. The Kentish Flats are just over six miles from Whitstable.

Wind of change - jobs boost
Hundreds of jobs for Kent
Plans for a massive wind-turbine factory, creating 16 hundred jobs, have been given approval. It's the latest development in what has been a momentous week for the economy of Kent.
Danish firm Vestas, the world's biggest producer of wind turbines, plans to build the plant - the size of 93 football pitches - at the Port of Sheerness.
It's a welcome boost for the Isle of Sheppey, which has been hit by the loss of several major employers, and it follows news of potential massive investment in Kent by the nuclear power industry.

If tennis match has ample anaerobic phases, how much recovery do you need?
View Single Post
Join Date: Aug 2006

IMO, it comes down to the details. Types of training being done, frequency of the training, relative intensity, and order of the training in a week. It all needs to come together "like a symphony".
The thing to remember is that, no one single workout or type of workout is sufficient. The key is consistent training with sufficient intensity for the type of training you are doing and ensuring that you will also retain enough energy for your next workout.
With that said, in my training, I'm only able to do 1 or at most 2 pure interval training sessions a week. Most often I do one session and incorporate another one (or maybe even two) into my other training runs. For example, I might incorporate 6X150 into a 5 mile run.
You'll have to determine if tennis is like interval training for you. I play a decent game of singles, but I don't really see tennis as interval training for me. So for me, playing more than 2 matches a week is fine. I see no problem with playing multiple times per week and don't feel like the recovery from a match is comparable to a true interval session.
I could go into much more detail, but I doubt the interest level is really there along these lines for too many people. The general guideline I use for overall fitness for myself (and this I believe also makes me "tennis fit') is the ability to run a 5-K in 20-minutes (6:30 pace). To do this, you need to train in a variety of ways, intensities, distances. It's not really a difficult standard, but I find that being able to do this makes me fit enough for pretty much anything (and almost always fitter than my opponent).
At any rate, train smart, get fit, and stay healthy. Good luck.
Here's an article you might find interesting. I'd guess that playing tennis is mainly "aerobic interval training" as opposed to "anaerobic interval training", though doing anaerobic interval training once (maybe twice) a week will improve your tennis speed and fitness.
Aerobic intervals involve working between a low aerobic zone (55 percent to 65 percent of maximum) and a high zone (75 percent to 80 percent of maximum). Anaerobic intervals call for a work period falling within 80 percent to 95 percent of maximum heart rate, while the rest periods may drop to an aerobic zone or even lower (below 50 percent of maximum).
Although interval training is a valuable training tool, it should be used in moderation. Intervals, especially high-intensity ones that dip into your anaerobic zone, provide the most benefit when performed only one or two times per week, or you risk overtraining. Steady-state cardio training, at a zone of about 60 percent to 80 percent of maximum, still offers benefits for overall health and weight management.

Ralph Malbrough / Contributing Writer
NEWORLEANS-- The New Orleans Saints shocked everybody when they swooped in and signed Buffalo free safety Jairus Byrd to a six-year deal worth a reported $54 million.
While all the experts in the media were trying to figure out if the Saints had gone all in to try and get another Lombardi trophy, the move showed the Saints believe their defense is closer to being great than their offense.
This move had Rob Ryan's fingerprints all over it. I'd like to think during one late night early in the offseason Ryan and Sean Payton were chatting over a couple of beers....
Sean: For our offense to be really great again we need to resign our free agent linemen, get younger and faster at receiver, plus maybe add another pass catching running back because Darren Sproles is slowing down.
Rob: On defense all I need is good health and a kick-butt, world-class free safety and I'll unleash hell on THE ENTIRE LEAGUE.
Sean: Are you being serious? All you need is a great free safety for the defense to be great?
Rob: Darn right. You get me that kid Jairus Byrd from Buffalo and our defense will be a quarterback sacking, turnover-creating monster. With our cap room he's a pipe dream though.
Sean: Mickey Loomis makes dreams come true my friend.
OK, maybe that's a little over the top, but in my mind it totally happened at Ms. Mae's.
The point is when the Saints made their biggest free agent signing since Drew Brees, it wasn't for a new toy for Sean Payton's offense, but for theNFL's No. 4 defense. If this move doesn't prove the Saints not only believe in the defense's ability to be great and show how much trust they have in Rob Ryan, I don't know what does.
Make no mistake -- if Jairus Byrd plays for the Saints like he has for the Bills, the 2014 defense has a chance to be great. Great as in 1991-92 Dome Patrol GREAT. Nothing is guaranteed of course, but the Saints haven't had a young ball-hawking safety like Byrd since Sammy Knight was intercepting 28 passes in six seasons in New Orleans.
As a fan, the only thing I love more than the Saints winning is the surprise big name free agent signing. There is nothing better than not expecting the Saints to do anything in free agency then suddenly on Twitter it's reported Jairus Byrd is going to visit New Orleans.
Oh my God, I thought the Saints didn't have any money? But when the Saints bring in someone for a high profile visit they almost always sign them!
/checks Twitter 9000 times rest of day.
Then the Saints sign the guy and we get to fantasize the rest of the offseason how spectacular a safety tandem of Jairus Byrd and Kenny Vaccaro will be. It is like football Christmas in March. Rob Ryan looked so happy marching in the St. Patrick's Day Parade because the man now has the best safety tandem east of Seattle.
For all of you worried the Saints have ruined their salary cap in 2016, I say this with nothing but love. WHO CARES?
By 2016 for all we know the Earth might be invaded by aliens and we will be enslaved and shipped off to another planet to do work in salt mines. I for one would like to thank Mickey Loomis for trying really hard to win the Saints another Super Bowl before I'm a slave on the planet Saltine.
The Saints most likely are going to be a disaster for a while after Drew Brees is no longer a superhero. Going to games will be as fun as walking your dog in Lakeview during the zombie apocalypse. Extra salary cap space ain't fixing that problem. It's just so darn tough to worry about the future with all those fantastic Jairus Byrd interceptions running through my head.
A final thought on the Saints front office. Mickey Loomis is the best GM in Saints history. He along with the people he has hired to help him can work flat out magic. Let's give a little credit to Tom Benson as well. Teams like Cincinnati and Oakland have millions more in salary cap space than the Saints yet did nothing incredibly aggressive last week. The Bengals even let a Pro Bowl defensive end go to Tampa.
The extra cap space won't help them win playoff games in 2014.
Mickey Loomis likes to be aggressive while the Saints have a once in a generation quarterback and coach, so Tom Benson lets him. Moves like signing Jairus Byrd help me overlook the season ticket increase. August can't get here fast enough.

I laid on my bed after another crazy day in Gravity Falls. Dipper, Mable Soos Grunkle Stan and I had just returned from the Mini golf course. Mable had challenged the biggest bitch, I had ever meant in my 13 years of being on Earth. I wouldn't forgive her a easily as Mable did.
I looked over to see her in her PJ and sleeping her brown hair over her face. I smiled I then looked over at Dipper who as always had his nose in the book trying to understand the mystery of this weird little woods town, I didn't blame him. So many weird things had happened to...
Into the Dare Contest between Dipper and Stan Pines, the latter dares Dipper to skateboard to Greasy's Diner and back to the Mystery Shack, completely naked. "How naked?" Dipper asked Stan. He replied fourth base, meaning "no hat, no shoes, no socks, nada". "What about the ladies?" asked a concerned Dipper. Stan threatens to declare Dipper a "chicken for life". He also points out that Dipper will wake up to "Good Morning, Chicken", and he would also cluck "Here Comes the Bride", while holding up his middle finger, when Dipper gets married. However, not wanting to be threatened, Dipper throws...
After the Opening Day Ceremonies for the 75th Hunger Games, Mabel Pines follows Katniss Everdeen, Peeta Mellark, and Haymitch Abernathy to the elevators. "You guys look amazing!" Mabel told Katniss, who thanked Mabel for the comment. She begins to take off her accessories (including her hair tie), calling her stylist an idiot. "District 7, Lumber, Trees" Mabel blithered "What do you think? Now that the whole world would want to sleep with you?" She then asks Peeta to unzip her costume. Her nudity caught the attention of the males in the elevator, while Katniss looked away in disgust....

I had a surprising dream where Dipper was cuffed to a pole for nudity, even though Grunkle Stan dared him to do it. Also, Mabel is from District 7.

The Words That Are Simplest
Music: Fugue in B Minor for Organ.
By J.S. Bach. Sequenced by Jim Michmerhuizen.
The words that are simplest
And easiest to understand
Are the most powerful:
I love you,
I want to be with you always,
You're the best thing that ever happened to me.
My heart flows like a river,
Spilling its emotions into a sea
In which the truth moves unseen,
Swimming with silent grace,
Too monstrous for light or land.
The truth feeds on words,
The most powerful words,
The words that are simplest
And easiest to understand.

You will be taken by van to a Maasai village where you will spend the day visiting the 'manyattas' and experience their way of life.
The Maasai people are an old nomadic tribe that lives in harmony with nature and is one of the few remaining tribes in Kenya that tries to hold on to their traditions.
This is at an extra fee payable direct to the Maasai moran (Maasai guide) before the tour begins.
Amboseli's fragile ecosystem displays an impressive wildlife variety, with more than 50 mammal species. The park is famous for being the best place in Africa to get close to free-ranging elephants among other wildlife species. Another attraction at the park is the opportunity to meet the Masaai and of course the spectacular view of Mt. Kilimanjaro.
The elephants are the kings of the park, no doubt. They are fond of the swamp areas, where they share the cool waters with the hippos and hide beneath the papyrus. The park is also home to a large resident population of Burchell's zebras. Other herbivores include Thomson's and Grants gazelles, buffalo, warthog, Maasai giraffe, impala, water buck and dik-dik. Baboons and Vervet monkeys inhabit the scarce woodlands. Carnivores are represented by lions, spotted hyenas, wild cats, jackals, caracals and cheetahs. With regards to birds, more than 400 species of birds have been registered, among which outstand pelican, flamingo, kingfisher, African fish eagle, ibis, secretary bird, crowned crane, grey and Goliath herons, cattle egret, black-winged stilt, little grebe, Egyptian goose, martial eagle, pigmy falcon, masaai ostrich, white backed vulture, lappet faced vulture, yellow-necked spur fowl, kori bustard and hornbills. After the rains, the park gathers large flocks of water birds.
Game drives, if not already included in your package, can be booked at Kibo Safari Camp.

Kate's Webcomickry
Hi all,
I've been experimenting of late in the weird and wonderful world of webcomics. I'm finding webcomics to be a great pressure cooker for improving my art and now that I've got a couple of established projects I'm looking for some feedback on where to take the comic style I'm developing next.
My main project is a fantasy webcomic called Juathuur. It's a daily comic so I'm pretty restricted on how much time I can spend per page. This is one of my more background-conscious pages:
I'm trying to find ways to improve the quality of each page while maintaining my speedy production cycle.
My side project is called Sex Percussions and lets me play with a slightly different and more detailed style (it is meant to be in colour eventually)

Hmm...I guess there are 2 major things that stand out to me (ok, 1 major,1 minor).
The main thing is a lack of focused and/or interesting light sources. It can almost be forgiven in the first comic, as it's a scene during overcast skies which has a tendency to flatten things out, but from what I see in the second I think that's less of a concious choice than an accident. Overall, the lighting in the first one seems inconsistent overall (look at the pants of the right most figure of the trio in the last panel and tell me why one is lit from below and one from above...)
In your inked work, the lines do an ok job for the graphic read but I'd like to see some more indication of form.
The minor thing bugging me is the bottom half of the second page. I like what you were trying to do with those 3 panels, but it reallydoesn't read well. I was very confused when looking at it for the first time.

Now this post is not really about the Mayans, it is really a tale of union vs. non-union. I live in a unique area. My driveway comes out to a private alley that is owned and maintained by the man who owns the condominium complex behind me. The condo owner is responsible for plowing the alley. Every winter the alley I have to use is a one lane treacherous ice skating rink because he hires the cheapest snow removal service possible.
The photo below is my alley, plowed by a private snow removal service. My son is standing where my driveway actually ends; the snow removal has cut our two lane alley down to one lane. I hope we never have a situation where a fire truck has to get back there as I do not think one would fit.

Dancing Career Information: Becoming a Professional Dancer
Find out how to become a professional dancer. Research the training requirements, and learn about the experience you need to advance your career in dancing.
Do I Want to Be a Professional Dancer?
Professional dancers display choreographed body movements and can appear in theater productions, TV shows, movies, and dance recitals. Dancers must tell stories and display emotions with their bodies through various styles like ballet, hip-hop, and modern dance. Dancers are also likely to pursue other dance-related professions after they can no longer perform professionally.
Fierce competition exists among professional dancers for available jobs. Some risk of injury is present with this career, as it is very physically demanding. Working hours are highly irregular and may include days of rehearsal followed by evenings of performance, seven days a week. Travel is often required as a professional dancer, sometimes to exotic destinations. Tours may last for months away from home. Additionally, about a third of these workers are self-employed, according to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics.
Job Requirements
Dance training can begin in childhood and continue throughout the dancer's career. The following table contains the main qualifications and requirements needed to become a professional dancer, as listed by the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics.
|Common Requirements
|Degree Level
|None required, but many have a bachelor's or master's degree
|Degree Field
|Training often starts as early as the age of five in order for dancers to gain enough experience to find professional work
|Key Skills
|Creativity, teamwork and persistence
|Additional Requirements
|Balance, knowledge of dance techniques and physical stamina
Step 1: Begin Training
Most dancers start their training before adolescence and audition for full-time work by the age of 18. Even after a dancer finds employment, training must continue throughout the dancer's entire career. Many students attend dance training programs in their teens. Private dance or performing arts schools and colleges can provide the experience needed to join a professional dance company. To gain acceptance into an advanced dance school, students often must participate in a summer workshop, which can serve as an audition for a full-time dance training academy.
Step 2: Consider an Undergraduate Degree
Although postsecondary education is not a requirement for a dancing career, undergraduate programs in dance can allow students to explore various dance genres or concentrate on a specific discipline. Performance opportunities are often available to give students practical experience. Curriculum for a bachelor's degree program in dance includes classes in choreography, contemporary dance trends, movement analysis, ballet, jazz, rhythm and dynamics, dance composition and dance history.
Success Tip:
- Decide if a master's degree is right for you. There are also Master of Fine Arts (MFA) programs available in dance that can allow students to study advanced dance theory and perform independent practice in a chosen dance style under the guidance of a faculty mentor. This may benefit those who wish to advance into choreography positions or become dance teachers.
Step 3: Stay Conditioned and Strong
A dancer's job is physically demanding and requires long and irregular hours. Dancers typically must stay in top physical condition through regular exercise and training. Dancing is extremely taxing on the body, and dancers may spend eight hours a day or more in class or practicing. According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, dancers have one of the highest on-the-job injury reports, so it's important to keep the body healthy and strong in order to continue working.
Success Tips:
- Join a union. Dancers face intense competition to earn their next gig, and only the most successful dancers find steady and well-paid work. Dancers who join unions, such as the American Guild of Musical Artists, are entitled to collective bargaining services that can ensure a minimum salary. Additionally, members can be informed of local auditions in their area of expertise.
- Consider an additional profession. Because dancers cannot dance their entire lives, many pursue another line of work, such as teaching. Other careers are available as dance therapists, and these professionals can help students with self-esteem issues. After performing professionally becomes too demanding on the body, a dancer may also continue to work as a dance choreographer or director. Some dancers may need to start a second job while still dancing in order to support themselves in a competitive job market.

It will be a super short and looks like the first and last post in January 2011.
So back to the topic, I decided to share an SSIS expression I crafted to extract the value concealed between two characters (I needed to get a portion of text in a file path):
Substring(@[User::MyString],FINDSTRING(@[User::MyString],"(",1)+1,FINDSTRING(@[User::MyString],")",1) - FINDSTRING(@[User::MyString],"(",1)-1)
The value of MyString say could be c:\test\test(testing123456789).txt, then the resulting text captured testing123456789.
Hopefully it will be needed to somebody.

|1 Tablespoon
|Dry white wine
|3⁄4 Cup (12 tbs)
|1 Teaspoon
|Butter/Margarine / oil
|2 Tablespoon
1. Scrub the mussels thoroughly with a stiff brush, rinse in several waters and place while wet in a large kettle containing the onion, parsley, celery, thyme, vinegar, wine and salt. Cover the pan tightly, put it on high heat and after 2 minutes shake the pan. Do this 2 or 3 times, or until the shells open, then cook 2 or 3 minutes longer.
2. Remove the top shells of the mussels and discard them.
3. Arrange 12 of the filled shells in each of 4 warmed soup plates. Strain the liquid left in the pan, adding the melted butter or margarine or heated oil. Mix it and pour this sauce over the hot mussels. If served as a fish course, decrease the number of mussels in each dish to 6; this number makes 8 fish servings.

Re: Westerly section??
I think 1415? Should remember, danggit.
I have seen a big drop in listings for Westerly's. 10 years ago there would be a lot of them on the various sale sites. Now they are rare (for the westen hemisphere). Too bad.
I was looking for a Berwick, but then upped my eyes to a Solway. Center cockpit, twin keel, 36ft. Only found 2 this side of the pond, one in Grenada, one Trinidad. The latter was a mess and way overpriced. Saw the one in Grenada but it had been neglected and even if given to me would have cost more to put in shape than buying one in Europe in sailaway shape. Conways were available but moe draft than I was willing to drag around the Chessie.
Centaurs are great Chessie boats. Tough, roomie, shoal draft. Fabuouls for Gunkholing. I had the B layout. It is no mere coincidence that the author of
Cruising the Chesapeake: A Gunkholers Guide
has a Westerly Berwick.
Btw, a fellow came through once who had a Pembroke - single keel version of Centaur. We sailed together and did not see any speed or pointing advantage to the single vs twin keels. Really, condition of sails, rig tuning and trim, bottom, and skipper skill are far more important.
