5 large chicken thighs (about 4oz each)
1 tbsp white wine
1/4 tsp salt
1 tbsp light soy sauce
1-1/2 tsp cornstarch

To Cook:
Cranberry Meatballs
Ingredients: (A)
2 lb. lean ground beef (85%)
2 eggs, beaten
1/2 c applesauce
1 medium onion, chopped finely or grated

This recipe comes from the kitchen of Libby's Mom
Braised Chestnuts with Madeira Cream Sauce
To prepare fresh chestnuts, with a sharp knife, score a shallow X across the flat side of each chestnut, cutting all the way through to the meat. Soak in cold water to cover for 15 minutes, drain and spread out on a baking sheet in a single layer. Roast in a preheated 400°F oven, stirring once or twice, until the peels have curled open along the cut marks and the nuts give slightly when pressed, 10 to 12 minutes. Cool slightly, then remove the outer and inner peels.
8 Tbs. (1 stick) unsalted butter
1 1/2 lb shiitake mushrooms, brushed clean, stems removed and caps quartered
1/2 tsp. salt, plus more, to taste
1 lb. carrots, peeled and cut diagonally into 1 inch pieces
1/3 c minced shallot (approx. 2 shallots)
1 1/4 cups chicken stock or low-sodium canned chicken broth
3/4 cup plus 2 Tbs. medium-dry Madeira wine
4 tsp. cornstarch
1/4 cup heavy cream
1 1/2lb. fresh chestnuts, roasted and peeled, or 3 cups purchased steamed chestnuts
Freshly ground pepper, to taste
In a large fry pan over medium high heat, melt 4 Tbs. of the butter. Add the mushrooms and the 1/2tsp salt, cover and cook, stirring once or twice, until the mushrooms are tender and lightly browned, about 7 minutes. Transfer to a bowl and set aside.
Return the fry pan to medium heat and melt the remaining 4 Tbs. butter. Add the carrots, cover and cook, stirring once or twice, for 15 minutes; do not let the butter brown. Add the shallot, cover and cook for 5 minutes. Add the stock, the 3/4 cup Madeira and the mushrooms. Bring to a simmer and cook, uncovered, stirring once or twice, until the carrots are almost tender, about 12 minutes.
In a small bowl, stir the 2 Tbs. Madeira into the cornstarch to make a slurry. Add the slurry and the cream to the fry pan. Scatter the chestnuts over the mushrooms and carrots. Bring to a simmer, cover and cook, stirring occasionally, until the sauce has thickened, about 5 minutes. Season generously with pepper. Taste and adjust the seasonings with salt.
Fold the chestnuts into the sauce, breaking them up as little as possible. Transfer to a warmed bowl and serve immediately.
Serves 8 to 10.
This recipe is from an online site, perhaps www.recipezaar.com - I couldn't find the recipe again to credit. This dish is incredibly rich and makes an impressive looking side dish.
Chicken with Shallots and Garlic
4-5 chicken breasts
10 shallots
10 cloves garlic
1/4c olive oil
Coat chicken breasts in salt and pepper.
Brown chicken breasts on both sides in olive oil
In an oven-safe dish, put the chicken breasts, 1/4c olive oil, shallots, garlic and herbs. Fresh herbs are best, but dried will do in a pinch.
Bake covered at 350°F for 1 1/2 hours.
For sauce:
After the chicken is done, remove all from the dish and deglace with white wine. Thoroughly mix flour or corn starch with cold water and add to the dish. Simmer until sauce is desired thickness, adding more of the thickening agent if necessary.
This recipe is from my brother
Libby's Burrito Filling (MainDish)(permalink)
Beef of some sort
crushed tomato
canned beans, like white or kidney
oil of some sort
Taco seasonings
If the beef isn't of the ground variety, put it in the food processor and make it into small chunks. Like, real small.
sautee the onions and garlic in the oil until translucent. Add the beef and brown it.
Add a bunch of taco seasoning, to taste really. Add some crushed tomato, just enough to cover the beef. Add the canned beans, sans whatever moisture they come packed with.
Let it simmer for a few minutes, then add more taco seasoning if you think its needed. Then, eat.
Serving suggestion: Eat on a burrito shell!
Other serving suggestion: Eat with a spoon!
This is excellent with cheese and salsa.
Chocolate Stout Cake (Dessert)(permalink)
2c stout (such as Guinness)
2c (4 sticks) unsalted butter
1 1/2c unsweetened cocoa powder, preferrably Dutch-process
4c all purpose flour

I also really like this cake done black forest cake style, i.e. with homemade whipped cream on the outside and cherry pie filling (or other cherry sauce) on the inside.
Greek Beef Thing (MainDish)(permalink)
This has been described by Jameel as a degenerate Moussaka. I concurr.
1 cup yoghurt
1/2 cucumber, julienned
1/2tsp mint
1/2tsp basil
1/4tsp garlic powder
Mix ingredeints and stir well. Let sit in the refrigerator for about a half hour for flavors to develop, while you make:
The Beef thing
1/2lb ground beef
2tbsp pignola (pine) nuts, coarsely chopped
1/2 yellow onion, diced
1 - 2 cloves garlic, diced
1tbsp olive oil
3oz feta cheese, cubed
1/2tsp mint
1tsp basil
Heat oil in a medium skillet. Add onions and garlic and saute until translucent. Add the beef, mint, basil, and salt and pepper to taste, and brown the meat..
Once the meat is completely browned, add the feta cheese and pine nuts. Stir until the cheese has melted enough to coat the beef, leaving a few large chunks of cheese.
Remove yoghurt sauce from the fridge and salt to taste. Serve on the side.
This goes very well with pita bread
Cranberry Sauce (Side)(permalink)
1 bag cranberries
1/2 cup water
1/2 cup Cranberry juice, unsweetened
1 cup sugar
Mix the water, cranberry juice, and sugar in a medium saucepan. Bring to a boil, stirring until the sugar has completely dissolved.
Once the mixture begins to boil, add the cranberries. Return to a boil, and then lower the heat and allow the sauce to gently boil, stirring occasionally, for 10 minutes.
For a smooth sauce, strain through a wire mesh strainer, mashing the berries through it to get all the flesh, leaving the skins.
Remove from the heat and allow to sit until the sauce reaches room temperature. Then place in the refrigerator.
This is one of the best cranberry sauces I've ever had - its rich, very sweet, and was a hit this Thanksgiving.
Apricot Pecan Balls (Dessert)(permalink)
1/2 cup butter
1/3 cup sugar
1 egg yolk
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
1 cup flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
l egg white

Cream butter and sugar. Stir egg and vanilla into mixture. Mix flour and salt in. Blend well. Shape into 3 dozen small balls. Dip into unbeaten egg white and roll into chopped pecans. Place 2" apart on lightly greased baking sheet. Make a deep dent in the center of each ball, and place a small amount of apricot jam inside.
Bake at 300 degrees for 30 minutes, or until lightly browned.
These are my favorite cookie. I definitely recommend doubling this one!
From the kitchen of Libby's Mom
Variable Stir Fry Sauce (Sauce)(permalink)
black pepper
red pepper flakes
garlic (fresh minced/crushed preferred, powdered okay too)
Soy Sauce
Peanut oil
Orange Juice
Lemon Juice
Other Flavors: Peanut Butter
Miso Paste
Hoisin Sauce
Pick a flavor you want - sweet, salty, savory, and go with it. Don't use all of these at once - mix and match! I'd say, generally you want to use all of the spices, always soy sauce, always just a little bit of the peanut oil for flavor. Don't mix the peanut butter with the miso paste, or with the OJ or lemon juice. The miso paste is really good with citrusy juices, though.
Once you've got something, stick your finger in and taste it!! If it is horrible, throw it out and try again. Once you've done it a few times, you'll get a feel for what is good and what isn't, and it will become simple.
Use this sauce as a marinade for whatever meat you are stir frying. Then, add it to the meats and veggies and cook it in. Make sure you heat it thoroughly after adding, to kill any germs or bacteria from having soaked the meat in it!!!
For a thick sauce, add corn starch. If you have already been cooking the sauce a bit and it is warm, mix the corn starch with cold water before adding so it doesn't make lumps.
The Best Corned Beef Ever. (MainDish)(permalink)
1 corned beef, straight cut
1 tsp garlic, minced.
2 cans Guinness
1 head cabbage
red or white potatoes
When you are buying your beef, look for a piece that is straight cut - in other words, look for one that has clearly defined muscle fibers that run along the length of the meat. This will ensure a tender dish, because when you slice it, the fibers will be very short, and the meat will fall apart in your mouth.
To start, rinse the corned beef in water to reduce the amount of salt it has.
Place it in a slow cooker, with the fatty side down. Take a small knife and make little punctures all over the surface of the meat. Cut open the small package of spices that comes with the meat, and rub it all over the top and sides, making sure to poke some of it into the little cuts you made so the flavor gets inside the meat. Then take your minced garlic (I buy mine minced in jars) and rub that all over the meat as well, again making sure to poke it into the cuts. Don't bother to rub any of this on the bottom fatty side.. you won't be eating the fat anyways.
Pour the two cans of Guinness into the slow cooker, put on the lid, and turn it on low for 8 hours or on high for 6.
After 8 hours (or 6 for a higher heat), it is time to prepare your vegetables. Remove the outer leaves and cut the cabbage into quarters, or smaller if you prefer - you will probably need smaller pieces to make them fit into the pot! If you are using small potatoes, you can just wash them and place them whole into the slow cooker. If you are using larger potatoes, quarter them before adding them. Add the potatoes and cabbage to the slow cooker and cook for another two hours on whatever heat you are using.
After the cooking is done, remove everything from the liquid and dispose of the liquid. Cut the meat against the grain to serve.
Total cooking time: 8-10 hours
Libby rating: extremely easy

Who knew? Here I've been nattering on about my cash flow, or lack thereof, and it turns out any Tom, Dick, or Harry can simply set up a paypal account and the $$ will start flowing in. How can you say there is no God? In three and half years, I'll be 62 and can start collecting $882 a month according to the Social Security retirement calculator I consult every other day or so, but until those filthy rich days arrive, really, feel free to hit that little yellow logo over there to the right (paypal and/or credit card(s)), let the good times roll, and please accept my heartfelt, everlasting thanks. I have got my expenses down to rent, phone, netflix, AAA, website hosting, and car insurance but a gal has to eat, tithe, and it must be said, purchase an occasional piece of finery at Goodwill. Plus shell out approximately six and a half million dollars every year for dental care.
More to the point, I'm continually musing about the whole notion of "the writing life." A friend recently sent me the link to a Slate piece entitled "MFA vs. NYC: America Now Has Two Distinct Writing Cultures: Which One Will Last?" and after reading it, I, for one, hope neither of them lasts. The piece contained not a single word remotely connoting the glory, nobility, art, and sacrifice of writing, and only corroborated my own career-long resistance to remotely participating in any kind of literary "scene," not that anyone's asked. But seriously, publishing, like much of the rest of the world, is in an extreme state of flux and I'm wondering whether if, together, we could not all create some new kind of model...not just for the writing life, but for life in general.
At the risk of sounding corny, one of the things this blog has shown me is that what we really want is not to get all the things we think will make us happy, but to give all we have...but that is the subject of many future posts, as is why I quit my job as a lawyer and in fact recently resigned from the California bar altogether. I happen to have a NYC agent, but I've also recently learned of (self-) publishing-on-demand--oh I have been coming out of my shell and learning all KINDS of things--and am seriously thinking of signing on with amazon and selling any future work directly from my blog. Or not.

This work of 'pure glorification' had no success, nor could it have had any. God alone was witness to my struggle and sole judge of the frightful difficulties I had to overcome in order to concentrate, in so few pages and in so searching a form, the vastest theme there is. In an age long past when men did not scorn these things, such a work would probably have attracted attention. It appears that today this cannot happen, since even my friends are unaware of its existence. Therefore let it exist solely to glorify God, like some poor little star lost beyond sight in the sky's depths."
Either that, or I can keep writing and posting, to my profound pride and honor, on Shirt of Flame! Christ himself, after all, observed that the laborer is worthy of his hire. [Luke 10: 7] And in the meantime, let it be known far and wide that I, Heather D. King...

|Liner Note Author: Rick Glanvill.
|Author: Peter Tosh.
|Arranger: Marley.
|BLACK DIGNITY is not a comprehensive Peter Tosh compilation by any stretch, nor does it claim to be. Focusing on his early Trojan singles, this generous, twenty-four track collection surveys the period when Tosh was still playing with Bob Marley and the Wailers, yet was yearning to express himself more fully. On several of these cuts Tosh is backed by the Wailers. Elsewhere, he is backed by the Destroyers, the Love Generation, and Lee Perry's house band the Upsetters, among others.
|The Wailers' cuts, arguably Tosh's best known early work, are here. These include "Stop The Train" and "Four Hundred Years" (which appeared in alternate versions on CATCH A FIRE), and "Brand New Second Hand" (which also appeared on Tosh's solo debut LEGALIZE IT). Tosh had yet to fully develop the powerful political conscience in his songwriting, but there is ample evidence in "Arise Black Man" and the title track. Throughout, Tosh's superb songwriting, instrumentation (there are also several fine dub instrumentals here courtesy of producers like Lee Perry and Joe Gibbs), and powerful voice make this an indispensable collection of early roots reggae.

Hello All,
I tried to install FC6, and got some problems with graphics. To begin with
the installer CDs would not recognize my graphics card (which worked sort of
fine with old installation of redhat E3 I think, card is ATI RV350 AP Radeon
9600, however, I should note that it took some doing to make it work with my
monitor, Sony sdm-p232w (1920/1200). When I say it worked sort of fine,
there were cases (every couple of days) that when I logout the login screen
would get snowy (like if you had really bad antenna in the old days with
TV) and then I would have to kill X couple of times (CTRL-ALT-Backspace) to
get it back to nice graphics...
So than I thought I'll switch back to installing FC5, for which I have a DVD
(came with some book I got few months ago). Now that started OK (it did
start the install in graphics mode) but there was some error on media
further down installation...
I wonder if someone has FC5 handy (CDs or DVD) so that I can try to go that
I realize that it would be best to actually fix the graphics problem, but I
am desperate to find the fastest solution as this is my main office machine
(typing this email n a dinky little laptop...).
Thanks, Boris

Selling your Collection
-Your Collection of Civil War Books/Manuscripts-
Selling, Auctioning, Gifting?
Even today, with the interest in the Civil War and its books at an all time high, more Civil War book and manuscript collections are carelessly dissipated or sold in haste than are handled properly. Immortal as you may be, someday someone is going to dispose of your collection and, if that someone doesn't know anything about books and doesn't know who to contact, chances are your books will go to the Salvation Army, the library book sale or to Joe the local book dealer who's a fair enough fellow, but who doesn't know anything about Civil War books and thinks $5 each across the board is equitable, including your first edition of Company Aytch, etc.
Be smart—give me a call before in extremis arrives and I will send you written information of my procedure for buying Civil War books and manuscripts. For over 40 years, collectors have been telling their wives "Call Tom," two words that take the worry out of disposing of your collection. However, fair's fair. Wait another ten years and call here asking for Tom, and whoever answers will probably tell you he's not here anymore—he got "called." Happens to the best of us – and all of us.
Each year, we sell thousands of out-of-print and rare Civil War books and manuscripts. This stock must be constantly replenished; thus, we travel some 30,000 miles a year purchasing Civil War material. Most of our purchases are made from individuals.
Though we are glad to purchase small lots of books and individual volumes of value, we are most interested in, and will pay most for, large collections. For these collections, we will come to your home, pack the books properly and carefully, transport them door to door in our van (insured), issue a catalog with each title of value listed individually, purchase all books (not just the best and leave the rest), and pay a fair percentage of retail value. If you prefer, we can estimate the value of your collection and purchase as is, where is.
With 40+ years of experience in buying and selling out-of-print and rare Civil War material, 4 employees and a large store, we have the knowledge and ability to handle any size collection expeditiously and competently. We wrote the Price Guide for Civil War Books (now in its fifth edition), have issued over 400 catalogs, and are able to realize the highest prices for Civil War material.
So. . . if you will be selling your collection, or if someone else will be selling your collection, keep us in mind.
~Broadfoot's: 40 years of selling Civil War books full time—more than 400 catalogs—4 employees. We have sold many of the better collections offered in recent years including: Richard Harwell, Bell Wiley, Bob White, Lee Wallace, Cary Close, Robert Sommerfield, The Late Unpleasantness, Mike Mullins. In addition to individual collections, we have purchased the Civil War stock of D. A. Bulen, Lost Generation Bookshop, Gitmans, McCowat Mercer, Continental Book Company, etc. With Broadfoot, you're in good company. References provided—better yet, ask around.
~No shipping or packing. We will come to your location, pack your books, load them, and move them from your door to our store in our vehicle. Your books are in good hands all the way with Broadfoot's.
~No need to make a listing of the material. A complete listing of the collection is made (our catalog), listing each item of value individually with a description and price. We don't buy on consignment—we purchase outright. If and when the books sell is our concern, not yours. If you'd like a recent catalog, just ask.
~At no charge to you, we will clean your books as needed, make repairs as needed, fit the better book with acid-free mylar dust jackets and place pamphlets and fragile material in protective folding slipcases. These extras ensure that your titles are protected and preserved; this will increase the value of your collection substantially—at no cost to you.
~We can handle any size collection, though the average purchase is in the $15,000-$75,000 range. Perhaps most importantly, our purchase of your collection can be set up in advance. Quite a few Civil War collectors have advance purchase agreements with us. If you have a large collection which will someday be sold, we'd like to hear from you.
~If you are considering selling your collection, would like more information, or have questions, give me a call. If you live near one of the Civil War shows we will be attending, come by and talk with us.

Unending Fireworks In A Beautiful, Dangerous Nation
July 2, 2015
On April 19 at the Glastonbury church I've been attending this year, the pastor, Nancy Butler, walked the congregation through Just War Doctrine, a concept erected and polished by Catholic and Protestant theologians, especially Augustine and Aquinas (although to be fair, something very much like it appeared 700 years before Augustine in India's Mahabharata).
Fiscal End Game — Beware The Sick Monkey
June 26, 2015
On Monday, the legislators will convene in special session and try to pass a budget. They may also pass something called the Second Chance Society, which would be fitting inasmuch as this is their second chance to pass the budget.
Many Versions Of 'Porcupine,' But All Prickly
June 18, 2015
This job obliges me to think deep thoughts about Gov. Dannel "Porcupine" Malloy, who is currently occupying a complex cultural crossroads, like the circle around the Arc de Triomphe where Citroens race into a single rotary from 12 different angles.
CT Businesses Howling About Taxes They Don't Pay
June 12, 2015
Last week, state Sen. Beth Bye, D-West Hartford, told me about a series of visits she made to area manufacturers to hear their concerns.
State Trembles As Noxious Storm Sweeps Capitol
June 4, 2015
On May 19, 1780, the New England daytime sky went inky black around 10 a.m. and stayed pitch dark for the rest of the day. The birds and farm animals fell silent, and the region's Calvinists were convinced that Judgment Day had arrived.
'Porcupine' Malloy Injudicious, But Right On Racism
May 29, 2015
I am about to defend someone who has made himself a political untouchable, so lowly and loathed that I have not heard one voice raised in support of him.

Criminal Justice Reform Is The New Kale
May 8, 2015
The people in the middle of a social movement are often the last to know that it's happening, says Glenn Martin. Martin is a graduate of the New York state prison system, where he spent six years. He subsequently transformed himself into one of the nation's most thoughtful, mediagenic and articulate advocates for criminal justice reform.
Handling Civil Unrest Vs. Riling Up The Neighbors
May 1, 2015
Forty-five years ago, Kingman Brewster, president of Yale University, was faced with some problems: two Black Panthers were on trial for murder in New Haven; Panthers were urging students and townies to burn the university down; thousands of demonstrators plus a Who's Who of outside agitators including Jerry Rubin and Tom Hayden were descending on New Haven for a three-day rally; there was reason to believe that operatives connected to the Nixon administration would also try to incite violence to discredit the left.
I Love Hartford, But City Sideshow Never Stops
April 24, 2015
I root for Hartford. And I hesitate to make fun of Hartford, because I know that there are people who really do hate the city and many of them will be commenting on the online version of this column. And I respect the opinions of those people even though, as far as I can tell, 80 percent of them are racist pukes.
Brontosauruses' Comeback Gives Pluto Hope
April 17, 2015
I grew up with brontosauruses. I don't mean I'm so old that I had them as pets, but when you're a kid, even if you're pretty clueless, even if you know almost nothing, you tend to know a lot about dinosaurs.
Malloy Muzzles 'Top-Notch' Commissioners
April 10, 2015
I'm going to ask for a little audience participation on this column. Wherever it says "CHORUS," I want you to stop reading and sing these words from the Talking Heads song "Girlfriend is Better:" The refrain goes: "Stop making sense, stop making sense, stop making sense, making sense."

Malloy Only Popular When It Snows
March 12, 2015
Cheer up, Porcupine. I've seen worse polls. On the other hand, when you're substantially less popular than assisted suicide, maybe it's time to take stock.
Don't Stick Hartford Team With A Bad Name
March 5, 2015
Dear Owners of the Hartford Baseball Team Faced With Mostly Terrible Name Choices ... Can we talk?
Car Dealers Short-Circuit Over Tesla Sales
February 26, 2015
Connecticut auto dealers would like to start selling Tesla electric cars, but until someone lets them do that, they would like you to know that the company is perched on the edge of financial ruin and their cars are, implicitly, death traps.
Malloy Tightens Fiscal Screws On Hobos
February 19, 2015
The budget that Gov. Dan Malloy presented Wednesday was extremely depressing, as if it were part of a matching ensemble that included seasonal affective disorder, frozen pipes, bronchitis and systemic exertion intolerance disease, all of which I'm pretty sure I have.
Brian Williams' Lie Pales Next To Iraq Deceit, Denial
February 13, 2015
In all the coverage of television anchorman Brian Williams and his woes, I have yet to read an article tracing the problem back to its roots: the national mythologizing of the 2003 Iraq invasion and the failure of the news media to do its job.
In Search Of A Transgender Pronoun
February 5, 2015
"To live is to change, and to be perfect is to have changed often." So said John Henry Newman, the Victorian-era Anglican priest who became a Roman Catholic cardinal. A trans-Christian, you might say.
Hartford Stadium Decision Only Quasi-Public, Quasi-Sensible
January 29, 2015
OK, we don't trust you again. By "you," I mean Hartford Mayor Pedro Segarra and the city council majority leaders who met during Monday night's storm to pass a law creating the Hartford Stadium Authority.
State Says No Go To Waiting Passengers
January 22, 2015
The headline in The Courant was a tad misleading. "Arrest for Public Urination Is Middletown Man's 96th" Would not a person reading that be forgiven for concluding that the Middletown man, Joseph Duncan, had been arrested 96 times for public urination? After a while, that starts to look like not-quite-civil disobedience. My pulse quickened. There's a movement forming. No, not that kind of movement. And we need a standard bearer.
Plainfield Shakes While Capitol Rumbles

When I was a boy and there were earthquakes, my grandmother would come into my bedroom to comfort me.
Lockbox Won't Stop You On Highway To Hell
January 8, 2015
The road to hell is paved with good intentions, and in Connecticut, the road to hell is also very congested. And not all that well paved. Really, when it comes to getting to hell and back on a regular basis, you might want to ask Satan if you can telecommute.
Rowland's Path Back To Prison Paved By Enablers
January 2, 2015
Here is how 2015 will begin. Everybody who is supposed to pay attention to the second inauguration of Gov. Dannel P. (for "Porcupine") Malloy will instead be focused on the same-day sentencing of former Gov. John G. Rowland.

Nothing But Blue Skies For My Pal Ralph
December 18, 2014
It was a house on Goose Green Road in New Hartford where a woman took in dogs. We drove up there in the spring of 2000. My father died in 1998. Our large dog Roy died in 1999. We had some vacancies. We were a mom, a dad, a 10-year-old son, a Jack Russell terrier named Chicken and our next-door neighbor Natalie, our son's best friend. We brought her with us because she was good with dogs and because we rarely did anything significant without Natalie.

Time To Heat Up Hartford's Mayoral Election
November 26, 2014
The 2014 campaign is over! Even the sketchy-looking Hartford results have been posted on the secretary of the state's website. Personally, I do not think those absentee ballots from Ivana Tinkle and Jacques Strappe should have been counted, but you know what? Bygones, Hartford.
DeLauro Slammed Door On Duckworth, Principles
November 20, 2014
June 14, 2013, was a happier time for Democratic Reps. Rosa DeLauro of Connecticut and Tammy Duckworth of Illinois. They dashed away from the Capitol along with fellow Rep. Gwen Moore, D-Wis., to be honored by the National Partnership for Women and Families.

Prime Time Came, State Republicans Not Ready

October 9, 2014
OK, let's add a word to our vocabulary, shall we?
Foley Grabs Slasher's Knife From Malloy
October 2, 2014
The landscape of Connecticut education last week was darkened by the shadow of a villainous slasher, blood dripping from his knife as he forces helpless screaming women to give up their last shreds of dignity and hope.
Off To Canada For A Breath Of Fresh Ideas
September 25, 2014
I'm not saying I fled here to Montreal because the gubernatorial race was so stale, so arid, so utterly uncontaminated by new ideas that I could not stand another minute of it.
Shutting Down Minister Over Israel Is No Solution
September 19, 2014
I don't understand the Middle East. I don't even try.
I Felt Sorry For Rowland, But It Passed

When my big scandal hits — it involves Victorian steampunk goggles, steroids and payments laundered through the Cape Verde National Brass Choir — I may hire Reid Weingarten as my defense counsel.
Trying To See Things John Rowland's Way
September 4, 2014
Rowland 770096 Virtual Reality Goggles — 50mm Eye Cup. List Price: $18.99. Amazon Price: $16.99. Ideal for seeing the world the way it looks to former Gov. John G. Rowland. Not appropriate for welding or swimming.

Losing Robin Williams' Light Against The Dark
August 14, 2014
Twice in 2014, I've come to the end of a pleasant evening, walked upstairs to where my laptop sits and discovered the sudden death of someone who spoke powerfully to me.
Governor's Race Between Fear And Loathing
July 31, 2014
Last week, former U.S. Sen. Chris Dodd, the epitome of a fallen angel, his once-white wings smeared with oligarchic slime and movie popcorn grease, stepped forward to endorse Gov. Dan Malloy.
Phalanx Of Foes Scrambles Malloy's Playbook
July 24, 2014
So many people are campaigning against Gov. Dannel P. Malloy! Tom Foley, John McKinney, Jon Pelto, Joe Visconti, Lee Whitnum (call me maybe!) and now Chris Christie.

July 10, 2014
A political column is probably the wrong place for this, but: Tom Foley, will you marry me?
Hustlers Cash In On Charter School Craze
July 3, 2014
If I showed you the headline "Weak Charter School Laws Enable Scams, Insider Dealing," you'd probably assume it's the latest shoe to drop in the unfurling scandal of FUSE, the punch-drunk charter school group attempting to run schools in Hartford, New Haven, Bridgeport and — coming this fall! — Baton Rouge, where folks are getting nervous reading all those Connecticut stories.
City Got Worked Over In Secret Rock Cats Deal
June 27, 2014
The Rock Cats-to-Hartford deal is such a Rabelaisian feast of knavery, greed, deceit and commonplace stupidity that you almost can't use it to teach a specific lesson about government. Because nothing about the process has been worthy or truthful, it's hard to zero in on one specific failing.

This Ain't Lionel — Time To Fix The Bridge
June 12, 2014
If we were living in the model train set of some giant kid, the Norwalk River railroad bridge would be one of his favorite pieces. It's 562 feet long, and 202 feet of that can "swing" or pivot on an axis to let boats come through.

Malloy Unloved (But He Can Squeak Out A Win)
May 2, 2014
Here is something Gov. Dannel P. Malloy said last week on WNPR's "Where We Live," in response to a question from my colleague John Dankosky about why Malloy announced his re-election plans in late March after having said he would wait until May:

Court Reigns Supreme, No Horsing Around
March 28, 2014
Scuppy the horse has been cantering through the court system ever since the morning in Milford in 2006 when Scuppy bit a 2-year-old boy on the cheek, taking a chunk of flesh and leaving a scar. The boy's father had been petting Scuppy, who was on the other side of the fence. A lawsuit was filed in 2008. Last Wednesday, the Supreme Court issued a nuanced ruling, so nuanced that I have read it twice and am still not sure what it says.

Keep Power Of Information With The People
March 14, 2014
On Nov. 22, 1963, bullets flew in Dallas, and tore into the head of John F. Kennedy. A citizen named Abraham Zapruder captured the killing on a "home movie" camera. The film had a complicated life, but in 2014, you can watch it on YouTube. You can watch it over and over or not at all.
Enforcer Malloy Drops Gloves, Ices Jindal
February 27, 2014
No one ever mistook Nicholas Evlampios Fotiu for Dick Button, but there are almost as many of Fotiu's skating highlights on YouTube as of the great figure skater Button. Invariably, Fotiu is punching somebody, a feat he performed repeatedly for the Hartford Whalers during his splendid years in our city.
Keno Induces Democratic Memory Failure
February 21, 2014
Our text today is Romans 7:20: "Now if I do what I do not want to do, it is no longer I who do it, but it is sin living in me that does it."
Malloy Fantasizes Stepping Out On Metro-North
February 14, 2014
When it comes to trains, Massachusetts is the dad in the neighborhood who left his wife for a sleek French girlfriend. This caused other dads to wonder if they should do it too.
Parsing The Unintelligible Stefan Pryor
February 7, 2014
I don't know about you, but I remember the moment when, as a boy, I fell in love with learning. It was 1964, in the spring. My fourth-grade teacher, Miss Vick, sat down with me in the late afternoon and gently pried from my hands Hardy Boys book No. 42, "The Secret of the Mummy's Strategically Dynamic New Paradigms."
Secrecy Means Government By Them, For Them — Not You
January 31, 2014
Connecticut's Freedom of Information Act was passed in 1975, making it the first of its kind. It's a good law. Its premise is that the government belongs to the people. Therefore, the people should know what government is doing. Seems reasonable.
'Bombogenesis' Scary, But It Beats Politics
January 24, 2014
Can we take a little break from the relentless, pounding headache that is state politics and speak instead of snow? I have several agenda items:

For Lanza's Mother, Abnormal Became Routine
January 3, 2014
In the 1980s, I interviewed a guy who lived in a house where, every night, a bat would fly out of his fireplace. It was never the same bat, as you will see. And it was always, he said, just one bat.

Judge Strikes Blow Against Government Secrecy
November 29, 2013
Let's give State's Attorney Stephen J. Sedensky III the benefit of the doubt and assume that he is a nice guy whose instinct to protect the families of Sandy Hook victims is so strong that, for no other reason, he attempted to bend the laws of the state into an anti-democratic pretzel.
Local Politics Can Be Just Pure Craziness
November 8, 2013
What did we learn from this week's local elections? The short answer is nothing. You should never trust anybody who claims that city and town elections prove anything about statewide or national trends.
UConn President Herbst's Defensiveness Is Tone-Deaf
November 1, 2013
Seven students recently brought a federal action again UConn for allegedly failing to take seriously their complaints of sexual assault and for failing to create a climate in which students do not fear rape.
Some Nights, The City's Just Too Full
October 25, 2013
Night 1: My story begins on July 18, when Justin Bieber performed in Hartford, when I interviewed Stephen King on the stage of the Bushnell, when the Riverfest fireworks, postponed because of the rising river, exploded over the city, when a road race called the Xtreme Hartford Scramble #2 coursed along the riverfront.
State Courts Failure — Buys Tennis Tourney
October 18, 2013
In 1991, as the Connecticut Tennis Center in New Haven was getting ready to open, journalists got a tour of the joint from the executive director of the Tennis Foundation of Connecticut. Despite the fact that state taxpayers had sunk $18 million into the venue, it is owned by the foundation.
A Lot Of Nothing Must Add Up To Something
October 11, 2013
As a Connecticut man named John Stotler observed on Facebook this week, it's tough for journalists to keep writing stories about the national stalemate and shutdown. How many times can you write, "No, nothing happened today. Nope. Sorry," before you feel like a minstrel of stagnation?
Tyler Olander's Really Good Deal
September 27, 2013
In Connecticut, a first driver's license costs at least $72, plus the $40 examination fee, so there is no way you're out of there for less than $112.

Vulnerable Malloy Should Keep Endorsement Feelings To Himself
August 29, 2013
In recent days, Gov. Dannel Malloy and U.S. Sen. Chris Murphy have endorsed state Sen. Toni Harp for mayor of New Haven. This is fairly unusual, but maybe it makes up for the fact that Harp did not initially endorse herself.

Baked Goat Cheese Salad
Impress your guests with Jo's bold-flavored, restaurant-style salad. The caramelized onions and strawberries add sweetness and depth to the tangy goat cheese and sharp citrusy dressing.
Photo: Maya Visnyei
By Joanne Lusted
Serves: 4
Hands-on time: 1 hour, 10 minutes
Total time: 1 hour, 10 minutes
- Olive oil cooking spray
- 2 large Spanish onions, thinly sliced
- 3/4 cup whole-wheat panko bread crumbs
- 1 tsp chopped fresh thyme
- Sea salt and fresh ground black pepper, to taste
- 4 egg whites
- 4 oz chèvre or spreadable goat cheese
- 3 tbsp fresh lemon juice
- 2 tsp Dijon mustard
- 3 tbsp chopped raw unsalted pecans
- 12 cups baby arugula
- 2 cups thinly sliced strawberries
- Caramelize onions: Heat a large nonstick skillet on medium-high and lightly mist with cooking spray. Add onions and cook, stirring frequently, until fragrant, 1 to 2 minutes. (NOTE: Skillet will be quite full to start, but onions shrink as they cook.) Reduce heat to medium-low and cook, stirring occasionally, until very soft, sticky and light caramel in color, about 1 hour. Remove from heat, transfer to a large plate and let cool at room temperature for 10 minutes.
- Meanwhile, preheat oven to 425°F. In a medium bowl, combine panko, thyme, salt and pepper. In a separate medium bowl, lightly beat egg whites; set aside. With your hands, gently press goat cheese into 4 1-oz balls and flatten each into 1/2-inch-thick patties. Dip patties in egg, turning to coat, then gently press both sides into panko mixture; repeat process to coat each patty twice. Transfer to a small tray, cover loosely with plastic wrap and freeze for 20 minutes.
- Meanwhile, prepare dressing: In a small bowl, whisk lemon juice, Dijon and additional salt and pepper; set aside.
- Line a medium baking sheet with foil and mist with cooking spray. Arrange cheese patties in a single layer on 1 half of sheet and mist tops with cooking spray. Bake for 6 minutes. Flip patties and bake for 6 more minutes, until golden. Turn oven heat off and remove sheet from oven. Add pecans to remaining half of sheet. Return to oven until pecans are warm, about 3 minutes.
- Meanwhile, in a large bowl, combine arugula, strawberries and dressing. Toss gently to coat and divide among serving plates. Top with onions, pecans and cheese patties, dividing evenly.
Nutrients per serving (3 cups arugula-onion mixture and 1 cheese patty): Calories: 252, Total Fat: 11 g, Sat. Fat: 5 g, Monounsaturated Fat: 4 g, Polyunsaturated Fat: 2 g, Omega-3s: 210 mg, Omega-6s: 1,460 mg, Carbs: 27 g, Fiber: 6 g, Sugars: 9 g, Protein: 14 g, Sodium: 284 mg, Cholesterol: 13 mg
Nutritional Bonus: Goat cheese is naturally lower in fat than many other cheeses, such as full-fat cheddar, and makes this salad satisfying and elegant. It contains 6 grams of fat per 1-ounce serving while cheddar contains 9 grams. Goat cheese also has less saturated fat than cheddar with 4 grams compared to 6 grams.

Flick, thanks for the tips on that valve. Bike is back together and it sounds and runs good. It seems be accelerate quicker and throttle response is snappier, it also seems to chug less at low rpms. I hope this helps my fuel economy. The guy at the parts place looked at my plug, and with mods bike has recommended a 165 main. Ill run ~50 miles with valve adjustment and re calculate mileage to see if it will help. If not ill try that bigger main.
So the valve adjustment increased mileage by about 1 mpg. I got 35 for the last 70 miles. I threw in the 165 main, an the engine ran down here (5000') like it does at 8000' with the 155. I think I'll try a 150 main. Also, what is the function of mixing screw, I can't seem to notice what it does when I adjust it. Also, my carb kit came with two o-rings one for the tip of mixing screw near the spring and another is supposed to go somewhere on shaft according to the parts diagram but I can't figure out where, it is also a larger diameter. There was no existing one to compare to. Any recommendations on a high flow air filter? Can anyone else think why my mileage is so bad? I can incorrect jetting really throw off mileage by 15mpg?

Kathryn Kuhlman (1907–1976) was a pentecostal evangelist best remembered for her healing services. Because of her wide ecumenical sympathies she was a major influence on a range of healing ministries, as well as on the charismatic renewal in its early days. Indeed, her official biographer, Jamie Buckingham, wrote that she was happiest when there were Roman Catholic priests on the platform with her. She received an invitation to a private audience with Pope Paul VI on October 11, 1972, during which the Pope assured her of his personal blessing on her work and his continual prayers. These quotes, taken from the Kathryn Kuhlman Foundation website HERE convey both the depth and the simplicity of her faith.
I made a consecration of my life that I had never made before, when I saw that it was absolutely possible for me to so yield my life, my body, as a living sacrifice - a sacrifice so consecrated to Him that the name of God Almighty may be glorified through the life of a sinner saved by the grace of God.
It is through the Holy Spirit empowering Christ's body of believers, His Church, with power for service that the Father is glorified again and again.
The Heavenly Father does not ask for golden vessels. He does not ask for silver vessels. God asks for yielded vessels - those who will submit their will to the will of the Father. And the greatest human attainment in all the world is for a life to be so surrendered to Him that the name of God Almighty will be glorified through that life.
As you read these words, I pray that this shall be the desire of your heart; and I know that the Father will hear your cry, and honor your prayer...and take your life, using it for His glory through the power and the presence of the Holy Spirit.
Faith And Courage
Living with faith and courage is something that life requires of each of us. NEVER, ABSOLUTELY NEVER GIVE UP! Never give in no matter what! Fight it through! And I promise you something with all of my heart...God will help you. "Be strong and of a good courage; be not afraid, neither be thou dismayed: for the Lord thy God is with thee whithersoever thou goest." (Joshua 1:9) And that promise comes from the highest authority in heaven and earth.
Remember something, God never permitted a difficulty to come into our life without also giving us the ability to handle it. God has provided us with every faculty. He has given us the power that we need for living victoriously. It is a fact that everyone of us down deep has what it takes to successfully meet whatever life brings.
God's Grace
Where would any man or any woman be this very hour were it not for the grace of the Lord Jesus Christ? Grace greater than all our sins - grace greater than all our shortcomings.
I am reminded of God's grace when someone confides, "I wasn't worthy of this healing or of God's blessings. I am not worthy to be called an heir of God and a joint-heir with Christ Jesus."
It isn't a matter of being worthy, for no man is worthy! It isn't our perfection or our penitence, or a matter of our labors to reach the place of perfection or worthiness. It is God's grace alone!
Wherever you find real love, you will also find humility. Remember something: humility is not a weak and timid quality. Too often we feel that humility is a sign of weakness. This is not so. It is the sign of strength and security.
As an example, let me share a memorable experience I had as a young child. It was a hot Saturday night and Papa and I were about to enter the meat market situated on the main street of Concordia, Missouri. The two of us were at the doorway when suddenly a man, noticeably very drunk, shoved Papa back. I saw my father step aside and hold the door open while the stranger staggered into the market. Standing nearby was a man watching the whole scene. Knowing that Papa was mayor of Concordia, he asked, "Joe Kuhlman, are you going to let him get away with that?" I was still holding onto Papa's hand when I saw him smile and answer: "I can afford to let him go first." That was a lesson in love and humility that I have never forgotten.
Humility is a show of security and strength. It is the solid foundation of all virtues, and I believe that the very first test of a truly great man is his humility.
Jesus The Healer
Today, Jesus stands ready to hear your cry and to answer prayer for you. He is interested in every detail of your life. He knows you better than you know yourself and is touched with the feeling of your infirmities and your needs. It is my prayer that even now Jesus shall make His Person and Presence a reality to you and give you His faith, and complete confidence in His power and love and promises - and the desire of your heart.
The Love Of God
Who can fathom the love of God? He loved us while we were yet sinners. You may be a sinner reading these words right now. You may have committed every sin in the book and broken every commandment of God. Yet, the Lord continues to love you. He has not cast you aside.
When Jesus hung on the cross, looking upon His enemies as He was being crucified, He said: "Father, forgive them for they know not what they do." That is God's love, the love of heaven paying earth a little visit through the Person of Jesus.
Victory Over Fear
Beloved, the secret of victory over fear is very simple - it is trusting Jesus! One of the most frequent expressions on His lips throughout His life here on earth was, "Fear not!" So look up! Faith in God has in times past "subdued kingdoms, wrought righteousness, obtained promises, stopped the mouths of lions, quenched the violence of fire, escaped the edge of the sword...turned to flight the armies of the aliens" (Hebrews 11:33,34), and FAITH CAN DO IT AGAIN! You are not only a conqueror, you can be more than a conqueror through Him Who loves you!

Winter Quarter 2012
Greetings to the New Year and welcome back students!!
Just a quick word about our meetings… for this quarter, they are located in Grover Hall, room W305 our old room on the third floor from last year, Tues 8-10pm starting today.
We also have Morton 201 reserved for indoor fight practice every Sunday from 1-5pm with the exception of this weekend (1/8) and Feb 26, where we are in Morton 235.
Thank you for the information and the room reservations, Theyus!
Summer Meetings & Fight Practices
Summer is in full swing and that means that Dernehealde's meeting have moved to Southside Park (just off Richland Avenue on Dairy Lane).
Fight practices have also been moved to Tuesday evenings – starting around 6:00p.m. (for our adventurous few) or 7:00 p.m. for those who work/travel. The Business Meeting will start around 8:00 – ish.
Bring plenty of water and be prepared to have fun!
Southside Park is located off of Richland Avenue, on Dairy Lane. Looking at the map (at the right, click on thumbnail for larger image) if you are following US-33 to Route 682 exit, simply follow the roundabout until you can exit onto Richland Ave. and then make the first right, this is Dairy Lane.
There is a sign for the Dairy Barn Arts Center. The parking lot for the first shelter house
(seen from Richland Avenue) is the first right on Dairy Lane. The large Dernehealde banner may be hanging on the shelter house, or there may be a group of fighters getting an early start on their practice.
Welcome to Dernehealde
Dernehealde is part of the Barony Middle Marches, in the Oaken Region of the Middle Kingdom as part of the Society for Creative Anachronism. Geographically, we are located in Southeastern Ohio, on the campus of Ohio University in Athens, Ohio in Athens County. We are part of a worldwide organization that promotes the study and recreation of pre-17th century, predominantly Western European arts and skills. This is accomplished in part by events where members can participate in a variety of activities – from tournaments, arts exhibits, classes, workshops, dancing, feasts, and more. Much of the experimentation and camaraderie is accomplished at our weekly meetings.
If you are new to the Society, I urge you to check the Newcomers' Liaison page (the Chatelaine's/Castellan's office) for information about the SCA. There you will find articles on etiquette, customs that are particular to the SCA, and other useful information. I also recommend that you consider joining our shire's e-mail list. It is fairly low traffic, but it does offer a means of asking questions that you may not have thought of at one of the meetings. It also helps in developing and maintaining lines of communication and coordination with other members of the group. We also have a number of Dernehealde 'alumni' who are members of the list.

Drop some comments as we hit some sloppy Santa surfing during our annual Santa Christmas surf.
We don a holiday hat and rip some waves. Well, we kinda rip it. Maybe not the best day evr! but when there's waves in December you go.
The water temperature is only 4 degrees Celsius and the air that day was a nice 1 degree Celsius. Not bad for Canada in the winter.
Have a great holidays and look for us back in production on a regular schedule.
Thanks for watching!

A progressive type of testing that separates male DNA profiles from those of females is helping the Harris County Medical Examiner's Office start solving sexual assaults and other crimes that previously yielded inconclusive results. The new male-specific DNA test zeroes in on minute amounts of biological evidence, such as saliva, skin cells or a trace of semen.
The technology, which the office began using in June, has already yielded positive results in 20 sexual assault cases reviewed by the institution's forensic biology laboratory. Harris County Chief Medical Examiner Luis Sanchez calls the new test a "byproduct of cutting-edge science."
Known as Y-chromosome detection analysis, the test has other benefits as well. It extends the time that evidence may be collected after a sexual assault from the typical 48 hours all the way up to 96 hours — or some experts say, a maximum of 120 hours.
In a rape case with multiple perpetrators, the male-specific test also will determine the number of men who participated in the attack.

LAWYERS, on Friday, locked horns before the Court of Appeal on whether a case lodged to challenge election results for Mr Opulukwa Meshack Jeremia (Chadema) as Member of Parliament (MP) for Meatu Constituency, should be thrown out or not.
While counsel for the incumbent MP, Mr Godwin Muganyizi, requested the judges to "strike out" the appeal for being filed out of required time, advocate Beatus Malimi, for a member of ruling Chama Cha Mapinduzi (CCM), Mr Renatus Masanja Salu, who lodged the appeal submitted to the contrary.
A panel comprising Justices Edward Rutakangwa, Mbarouk Mbarouk and Katherine Oriyo, said that after hearing the submissions from both parties on the objection raised by Mr Muganyizi opposing the appeal, they would deliver their ruling on the matter at a date to be announced later.
In his appeal, Mr Salu is asking judges of the appeal court to quash the judgment given by High Court Judge Ferdinand Wambari on May 4, last year, and subsequently give an order for nullification of the election results for the Constituency. Advancing reasons to support the objection raised, Mr Muganyizi explained that the appeal was hopelessly time barred because it was filed outside the required time.
He referred to Rule 90 (1) of the Court of Appeal Rules, 2009, to substantiate his submissions. The Rule provides, among others, that, "an appeal shall be initiated by lodging in the appropriate registry within sixty days of the date when the notice of appeal was filed with a memorandum of appeal, the records of appeal in quadruplicate and security for costs of appeal."
According to him, records show that the appellant (Mr Salu) received the last document for the purpose of compiling the appeal case on June 14, last year, but the appeal in question was lodged on September 6, the same year, which is more than 60 days.
However, Mr Malima requested the judges to dismiss the objection with costs, maintain that the appeal was lodged within time since the Registrar of the High Court was silent on the days to be excluded since the appellant received the last document.
"Since the Registrar is silent, then the counting should start on July 9, 2012, when he gave us a letter for certification. We pray that the objection should not be entertained," he submitted. The appellant was secretary and coordinator of the 2010 general election affairs for one, Salum Khamis Salum, who contested the seat under CCM, but lost to Mr Jeremia. The CCM candidate secured 12,824 votes, while that of Chadema emerged winner with 13,850 votes.

The story is a familiar one. In this case, one W.E. Richards from Diamond, Ohio, buys a brand new, triple black, 1966 Dodge Coronet 440 from Ravenna, Ohio's Martin Motors and transforms it into a weekend warrior.

Marietta, Ga. -- Most residents of Cobb County didn't consider gay rights fighting words until recently -- not even the gays and lesbians who live here.
The heart of this Atlanta suburb lies in Marietta Square, a tiny park bordered by narrow streets, a friendly drug store and antiques shops. For more than 100 years, the square has been a gathering place for those who live here, a place for Fourth of July festivals, Jaycee jamborees, religious meetings, a Ku Klux Klan march.
