Ward Cantrell has screwed up big time in his past. Numbering as one of his top mistakes was leaving behind his best friend and first love, Piper Morrissey. But the disgraced hometown hero has returned to Seneca Lake to open a distillery—right next door to Piper's winery. Piper and Ward run in the same circle of friends, and while they care deeply for each other, Piper's heart is still on the mend after Ward shattered it in high school.
Ward would do anything to help Piper and make amends, so when he learns that Piper's dreams of expanding her winery into port—a dream passed on to her by her grandfather—are dangerously close to being dashed, he steps in to offer aid and a plot of his land. However, his help comes with one stipulation: Piper has to date him for a month. This tale is as sweet and refreshing as a nice chilled Riesling.
"Come again? Because I don't understand."
"Here's the actual deal. You have to date me for a month. Not a onetime thing. Boyfriend/girlfriend type of time. Multiple shared meals in a week. Hanging out. Phone calls. Date like a real couple for an entire month."
Why would he want to do that? Why, after he'd broken her heart, let years go by without talking to her, and only spent time with her since returning when accompanied by Ella and/or Casey, why would he make that a condition? Whywhywhywhywhy?
Piper wanted to shake him. Instead, she rephrased the question hammering in her head in a nonstop loop. In as calm and businesslike a voice as possible, she asked, "Why would I do that?"
He eased away, stood up and spread his arms low, palms facing her. "At the end of the month, if you still want the land, I'll lease it to you. If you want to keep dating me, then you only pay me half the price."
That was a very good deal. One she'd be crazy to refuse. But that loop in her head kept playing. So she came at him from a different direction. "How do you know I won't keep dating you for another few weeks just to save a few dollars?"
Dipping his chin, Ward gave her a look from beneath hooded eyes that plainly said who are you kidding? "I know you, Piper. You're honest to the core. Principled. You'd never game the system like that."
True. She wouldn't even stock up on extra Forever stamps right before an announced price hike, because it felt like cheating the post office. But still . . . "This is crazy."

By Edan Lepucki
Back Bay • $16 • ISBN 9780316250832
Lepucki's post-apocalyptic debut novel became a cause célèbre almost by accident when it happened to hit the market last summer just as Hachette's battle with Amazon was heating up. Used by Stephen Colbert as the centerpiece of a protest against the online bookselling giant, the book drew readers who might otherwise have overlooked this disturbing look at one couple trying to survive in the wilderness after fleeing L.A. The paperback includes a reading group guide.
Ann H. Gabhart is known for her uplifting inspirational romances, and her latest novel, The Innocent, travels back to post-Civil War America and the fascinating world of the Shakers.
In this guest post, Gabhart tells us what drew her to inspirational romances and the strange customs of the Shakers, in particular.
"Hands to work, hearts to God." That familiar Shaker saying appears in all of my Shaker novels. Other Shaker sayings have made their way into my stories, too: "Do your work as if you had a thousand years to live, and as if you were to die tomorrow." "Engaged in thy duty, fear no danger." "None preaches better than the ant, and it says nothing." And one of my favorites, "Shaker your plate," which meant eat everything on your plate.
I've enjoyed stepping back in time to dwell with the Shakers awhile to discover their odd ways of life, such as condemning marriage and embracing celibacy. They also believed in confession of sins and community property. They worked to shut out worldly influences, and yet they traded with the world continually. They were solemn, hard workers, but in their worship services they danced and whirled and stomped. Those contrasts made for great story possibilities.
When I first began writing historical fiction, I looked to my home state for inspiration. After writing about Kentucky pioneer days and the Civil War, I focused on the Kentucky Shakers. I visited the Pleasant Hill Shaker Village that has been restored as a living history museum and began reading Shaker history. That research led to my first Shaker book.
For years, that story—rejected by publishers as too religious—languished on my desk until I published an inspirational novel, Scent of Lilacs. When my editor expressed an interest in the Shakers, I showed her my book, and Revell decided to publish The Outsider. After the story found some eager readers, my editor asked me to write more Shaker books. Not something I had planned to do, but I began researching the Shakers again. New story ideas surfaced that led to The Believer and The Seeker. Then once again, I thought I'd finished writing Shaker stories until another character wormed her way into my imagination. Lacey insisted I tell her story in The Blessed. That was followed by The Gifted and my Shaker Christmas novella, Christmas at Harmony Hill. Now I was surely through with the Shakers. I was writing other books about families where romance and marriage were definitely not against the rules the way they were with the Shakers.
Then a Shaker Sister and a sheriff tickled my imagination, and a new Shaker story, The Innocent came into being.

No question, the most popular thriller so far this year is Paula Hawkins' slow-burning psychological thriller, The Girl on the Train. So you've ridden the train, you've unearthed all those lies and secrets, but what do you read next? The editors of BookPage have a few ideas.
The Kind Worth Killing by Peter Swanson
Swanson (The Girl with a Clock for a Heart) takes readers to greater Hitchcockian levels with this twisty psychological thriller, which will appeal to readers who loved the way Hawkins jumped from one narrator to another, slowly peeling back everyone's layers to reveal their true motivations. Read our review.
Blackout by Sarah Hepola
"[B]lacking out wasn't simply a matter of forgetting what had happened," Hawkins writes, "but having no memories to forget in the first place." If you found this line from The Girl on the Train as fascinating as the mystery itself, you'll love diving into Hepola's memoir. Read our review.
Hausfrau by Jill Alexander Essbaum
Essbaum's mesmerizing novel finds a desperate housewife breaking out of her domestic passivity through a series of bad decisions and dangerous liasons. It will hit the spot for readers who couldn't get enough of Megan, the impulsive wife whose disappearance launches Hawkins' novel. Read our review.
Big Little Lies by Liane Moriarty
No one does suburban conflict quite like Moriarty, author of such page-turners as The Husband's Secret and What Alice Forgot. The unraveling connections between the three central women are some of the strongest elements in Hawkins' novel, and the three moms here juggle rivalries and plenty of juicy secrets. Read our review.
The Good House by Ann Leary
The townie protagonist of Leary's 2013 novel loves a bottle of wine as much as Hawkins' Rachel, and her blackouts render her just as unreliable. Her attempts to protect her reputation in a small, gossipy New England seaside town make for a fun, dark read, with a dash of wicked humor for balance. Read our review.
Before I Go to Sleep by S.J. Watson
Watson's spectacular 2011 debut includes many of the finest elements of The Girl on the Train—loss of memory, an incident that cannot be recalled, paranoia that seeps from the page to infect the reader, husbands who seem to know more than they let on. At the risk of a spoiler, we'll say no more! Read our review.
It's Private Eye July at BookPage! All month long, we're celebrating the sinister side of fiction with the year's best mysteries and thrillers. Look for the Private Eye July magnifying glass for a daily dose of murder, espionage and all those creepy neighbors with even creepier secrets.
Ever wonder what mystery authors read in their spare time? Colin Cotterill, who lives in Southeast Asia and is the author of the Laos-set mystery Six and a Half Deadly Sins, is here to tell us as we continue our celebration of all things mystery during Private Eye July! Who knew an author whose latest novel features severed fingers would enjoy a well-crafted children's book?
I have to confess, you've caught me at a fortuitous juncture with this request as I only ever find the time or the inclination to read when I'm traveling. My wife and I have spent the past month in the U.S. Lots of airports and sleepless flights and bad coffee. On the 30-hour return home from Seattle, I curled up with a nonfiction title: What the Dog Knows by Cat Warren. It's as far from Dog Whisperer psychology as Freud's Psychopathology of Everyday Life is to a self-help manual. It promised to be a little dense, but it covered two of my favourite topics: dogs and death. In brief, Warren found herself with an unmanageable German shepherd pup, Solo. She asked around for training suggestions and was pointed in the direction of training her dog as a cadaver search canine. Now, I wouldn't recommend the arduous program for your poodle unless you still wonder what happened to Auntie Irene who disappeared about the time Uncle Bert laid the concrete patio, but I'm sure you'll be as fascinated as I was in following Solo on his journey from juvenile delinquent to superstar K9 sleuth.
I tend to cringe a little when people call my books 'charming,' but that's mainly because I kill a lot of people in horrid ways and I don't think that's a particularly charming trait. But the New York Times' assessment of R. P. Harris' middle-grade reader Tua and the Elephant was right on the mark. It is, indeed, charming. I should first disclose that I know R. P. Harris, and he forced me to take his book on the road with me. I reminded him that I was neither 12 years old nor particularly interested in elephants, but, as he said, the book is set in my one-time home of Chiang Mai. It was peppered with clever observations of Thai life, and I do believe I reverted to my early teens after reading it in one sitting. With illustrations by popular artist Taeeun Yoo, it's the type of book you look for when you despair at the sleaze and vulgarity drowning your kids these days.
I'm always chuffed to be in a place I'm reading about. We were in San Francisco when I started The Halls of Power by William C. Gordon. His crime novels are set in the '60s but many of the sites were still recognizable even though the bars, like a lot of local food and drink establishments in the city have been forced to shut down due to the soaring rents. For those of you who want a dose of nostalgia for the San Francisco your parents knew, you couldn't do much better than Gordon. He was a crime lawyer back then so a lot of the cases in the books are ones he was involved in. The Halls of Power looks at the role influential people play in subverting justice, so perhaps not everything's changed.
Thank you, Colin! See anything you'd like to pick up, readers?
It's Private Eye July at BookPage! All month long, we're celebrating the sinister side of fiction with the year's best mysteries and thrillers. Look for the Private Eye July magnifying glass for a daily dose of murder, espionage and all those creepy neighbors with even creepier secrets.
Brad Meltzer is known for many things, from his popular American political thrillers to his comic books to his History Channel TV series to his efforts to promote literacy in Florida. But here at BookPage, Brad is known for writing the warmest emails of all time. And so it comes as no surprise that Brad has some really great fans, as he shares below.
I've never told this story. And I promise this is true.
It was over a decade ago, at the start of my career. I can't remember what book it was for. I think Dead Even or The First Counsel, but I'm pretty sure it was my first trip to Dallas. I was at a local Barnes & Noble and since I was new at this, I made sure to get to the event early. Really early, like, so early, no one else should be there unless we're related.
So I was surprised to see this group of four or five young men and women in their late 20s, which was about my age at the time. According to the store manager, they'd driven all the way from Oklahoma.
I couldn't believe it. From Oklahoma . . . all the way to Texas?! With my impaired sense of geography, that had to be like, a 16 hour drive (it was actually five). But still. No one had ever driven five hours to see me sign books before. You don't forget when someone does that.
By 7:30 or so, the signing begins. People ask questions . . . I pretend I'm funny . . . and then the actual book signing starts. At the end of the line, I notice the folks from Oklahoma. Of course they're waiting till the end. Whoever's at the end gets the most time with the author.
Some more time goes by. The signing slowly moves forward, and every few minutes, I keep looking up at the Oklahomans. Even from where I'm sitting, they just seem . . . nice.
Eventually, they get to the front of the line and I sign their books. It's late now, so I ask them where they're staying in town. They look at each other and sheepishly admit that they have to drive back tonight. As someone who grew up without much money, I get it instantly: They don't have the cash to pay for a hotel room (and yet here they are paying full price for a hardback book). They took their entire day to come and meet me.
Now let me be clear: What I was about to do, I'd never done before. I've only done it two other times since. But my gut told me these were nice people. And I trust my gut. So I said, "You're not getting back in the car and just driving for another five hours. I'm taking you all out to dinner first."
Their reaction alone was worth it.
But here's the part I love: As we're all leaving the bookstore together and heading for the restaurant next door, I spot one of the sales reps from my publisher lurking in the corner, by the door.
"What're you doing here?" I ask, genuinely surprised.
"The publisher told me to come keep an eye on you," she joked. Noticing the small crowd, she added, "Where you headed?"
"I'm just taking these readers to dinner."
She almost choked right there. "Wait," she told me. "You're taking complete strangers—who you don't know—to dinner?" I think she gave me some warning about how strangers can potentially chop you up into little pieces. Maybe she flipped through a copy of Stephen King's Misery. But eventually, she was like, "I gotta see this."
Looking back, she was just protecting her author from doing something stupid. But there's nothing stupid about being a nice person. In the end, we all went to dinner together: me, the sales rep and my new pals from Oklahoma (you know who you are).
And the best part? Since the sales rep came along, she surprised us all by picking up the check. So you know what the real lesson is? Kindness will always be rewarded. Also, dinner's always better when the publisher pays.
On June 16th, my new book tour started in NY. Don't think I don't know that at each event, the publisher stills spies on me from the corner.
See you on tour.

Looking for a fresh and healthy side to go along with your Fourth of July barbecue this weekend? Try this Grilled Cornucopia of Summer Garden Vegetables from our July Top Pick in Cookbooks—Sarah Leah Chase's New England Open-House Cookbook.
Grilled Cornucopia of Summer Garden Vegetables
At the height of the summer growing season when every night calls for firing up the outdoor grill and you can't decide which vegetable to cook from the backyard garden or local farmers' market, this grilled cornucopia of vegetables is your answer. If looking svelte on the beach is a top priority, you may want to skip grilling any accompanying protein and simply feast on this beautiful and bountiful platter of colorful and tasty vegetables. Otherwise, the grilled array of vegetables is perfect to pair with everything from the catch of the day to succulent rib eye steaks. Serves 8 to 10 as a side dish, 4 to 6 as a main dish
1. Combine the eggplants, yellow squash, zucchini, yellow and red onions, bell peppers, and mushrooms in a large mixing bowl and toss with the vegetable oil. Season with salt and pepper to taste and toss to coat evenly.
2. Set up a charcoal or gas grill and preheat it to medium-high.
3. Arrange the vegetables, working in batches if necessary, in a hinged wire grill basket or place them on top of a small-mesh grilling rack. Grill the vegetables a few inches above the heat, turning them frequently, until crisp-tender. Some vegetables will take longer to cook than others, so you want to tend them carefully and transfer them to a large and attractive serving platter as they become crisp-tender.
4. Once all of the vegetables have been grilled and placed on the platter, drizzle the olive oil and balsamic vinegar over them. Scatter the capers and basil over the top. Serve the vegetables warm or at room temperature.

The Book of Numbers by Joshua Cohen
Random House • $28 • ISBN 9780812996913
order from: BAM | B&N | Indiebound | Amazon
Ambitous, sprawling and complex, Joshua Cohen's second novel is an epic attempt to tell the story of the digital age, from computing's early days to modern times. But this paen to technology, written by a GenX writer who is of the digital age but not from it, also makes a strong case for the timelessness of the book. His narrator, also named Josh Cohen, is a failed novelist turned ghostwriter, and from page one his voice is unforgettable:
If you're reading this on a screen, fuck off. I'll only talk if I'm gripped with both hands.
Paper of pulp, covers of board and cloth, the thread from threadstuff or—what are bindings made of? hair and plant fibers, glue from boiled horsehooves?
The paperback was compromise enough. And that's what I've become: paper spine, paper limbs, brain of cheapo crumpled paper, the final type that publishers used before surrendering to the touch displays, that bad thin four-times-deinked recycled crap, 100% acidfree postconsumer waste. . . .
I'm writing a memoir, of course—half bio, half autobio, it feels—I'm writing the memoir of a man not me.

I have a frame that comforatble holds 11x14 negatives. It came out of a mid 70's plate burner.
It has glass plates on both sides of the frame , and has a piece of black 'velvet' bonded to both sides of some kind of cardboard board that sits between the glass panes.
Originally the frame was hinged mid long edge to swing in the middle on a support so that you could load one side, then flip over and load the other side. I guess you flipped it while the burner was on so as to do two burns for one start of the arc lamp.
The velvet is stiff to crush, and keeps the sensitized paper in good contact with the negative up against the glass.
I have yet to use it by loading two sides at once.

Amlin Chalenge Cup: Alex Davies stirkes late penalty to give London Welsh narrow victory over Cavalieri Prato
By Simon Dilger. Last Updated: 20/10/12 5:54pm
Alex Davies: Penalty two minutes from time secured win for London Welsh
London Welsh snatched a 32-31 victory over Cavalieri Prato late in their Amlin Challenge Cup clash on Saturday.
The Exiles bounced back from a 68-19 hammering by Stade Francais on their European debut last week to win by the narrowest of margins in the Pool 5 encounter in northern Italy.
The hosts scored four tries to the visitors' three to lead by two points with just four minutes to go before Exiles full back Alex Davies struck a 78th minute penalty to clinch victory for his side.
Hooker Dan George and wing Joe Ajuwa crossed in the first half, while Gordon Ross slotted a conversion and two penalties to give Welsh an 18-10 lead at half time, - with a try from Denis Mastriviic plus five points from the boot of fly half Riccardo Della Rossa providing the points for the hosts.
Ajuwa extended the lead soon after the break with his second but the Tuscan outfit hit back with converted tries from replacements Billy Ngawini and Niccolo Tempestini to make it 24-29 going into the final 10 minutes.
Lock Giacomo Bernini levelled the scores five minutes later and Marco Frati converted to give the Italians the lead for the first time.
But with just two minutes to go Davies broke Italian hearts with his second penalty of the half to grab victory for Lyn Jones' men.

Thought the Paulie walNUTS injury was hillarious. I wonder if Tony is going to look for a way out...perhaps "disappearing"????
Paulie talking Tony into cardiac arrest was absolutely hilarious.
I'm betting the lady in the doorway was Livia.
Absolute same thing I thought - definitely Livia.Quote:

Paulie has burned his bridges several times already, his coupon clipping after the talk of the huge chunk of cash they just got was rich in subtext for what type of player in the wiseguy business Paulie really is.

Second favorite scene ever, right after Christophers intervention.
I completely agree -- it was so surreal and so well done. The idea of death being like a giant "Family Reunion" and then Steve Busccemi outside, insisting on taking the briefcase away from Tony before he could go inside. "You can't bring business with you." Amazing scene right there.Quote:

Carmela DID catch the looks on Paulie and Vito's faces as they got in the elevator after delivering their goodie package to her...so they could be in trouble. They're such great comedy relief though! Vito talking about how since he's lost so much weight he would be a natural to take charge... his carrot munching scene, and of course Paulie's yapping at Tony and coupon clipping scenes. I also loved Sil's wife pumping up his ego, and his handling of things right into an asthma attack.
Not to mention Chris' movie. it has it all- the mob, Freddy and Jason, and Ghostbusters.
Paulie look to be crying in the previews for next week...wonder if something happens to his mom?

I seriously like to laugh and if you're willing to make me do it...I'll be happy to return the favor. One thing I seriously couldn't live without is music. I'm ALWAYS listening to it (in all states of mind and moods, including when I'm mad) and because I'm ALWAYS listening to it, I also love to DANCE! SO! you would either have to be perfectly fine with watching me....ummmm...do it!....or.....DO IT WITH ME!! (Even if you're not "GOOD" at it, it's the feeling that I'm after not the technique. Sounds very erotic now that I think about it. Either way, takes two to tango!) And next....what I'm about to say, I'm actually serious about and I know it's a very sensitive topic....I'm not attracted to overweight or anything past that scale. I'm not saying I'm attracted to muscle mania, a few extra pounds is fine. I know I'm an active woman and I would want the one near me to be active as well, hence 2-3 times of week (AT THE GYM, or other activity) is not enough for me, BUT MOST importantly, I'm looking for "that somebody" to have SELF-AWARENESS. I don't know how many people can actually put that into words without seeming shallow or politically incorrect. It's only preferences and everybody has them whether they are being expressed or not. Lets just say that preference are just individuals way of weeding out the good...the bad....and the ugly( great movie by the way ....and I love movies, including the classics- YES! that means lots of black and white films) On my most serious point---I DON"T take myself seriously ! I'm spontaneous but not careless, daring but not idiotic and I'm very affectionate (*disclaimer* acts of affection are subject to my choice of when, where, how and PARTICULARLY with whom....in other words: IF YOU GET THAT FAR!!!) WOW! I just scrolled down and I think I seriously went overboard on the chatter....must mean I like to talk! BY THE WAY!...don't take my "serious" so serious... please! because hopefully, it just made you giggle, If it didn't--- I HAVE other ways of making you SMILE!! :)

Re: hdmi audio only working once (per boot) after upgrading from 256.53 to 260.19.29
I am not sure if this is the same issue, I started testing 295.17 on my mythbuntu 11.10 test machine with vanilla alsa and 3.3rc2 from mainline. my results are with xbmc although I have not tested mythfrontend as I just noticed the issue with xbmc so far. I can boot up fine hdmi audio is fine, I start xbmc and it is still fine, I get gui sounds etc with no issues, as soon as I try and play a file ANY kind of file xbmc tells me it cannot initialize my sound settings therefore no audio until I restart xbmc and then the same issue.
I tried to install Alsa 1.0.25-3 last night and that just made the issues worse as it now caused a kernel oops in sound-hda-codec and pretty much every module included with that but the nvidia video driver/module would still load about every third boot. I did a clean install and I am back to x-swat 290.10. I do not recall having the issues with 295.09. If this is not the same problem please advise or you can move the post to a new thread. I am awaiting feedback from gnif at xbmc regarding this issue as well.
EDIT ok so I have tried both 295.09 and 295.17 both binary driver perform exactly the same way looking in dmesg it seems either something is loading twice or is being polled twice. i also disable my sound.conf file hence the 4 hdmi devices. I am heading back to 290.10 from x-swat.

NORFOLK, Va. (AP) — The Navy says one of its sailors has died after falling from the sixth-floor balcony of a barracks at Naval Station Norfolk.
The Navy says the sailor was of two that got into an altercation at Wall Manor on Tuesday night. Wall Manor is a barracks for transient personnel.
Both sailors were taken to Norfolk Sentara General Hospital.
The Navy said Wednesday that the sailor who fell had died. The Navy says the other sailor's injuries are not believed to be life threatening.
Both sailors were assigned to the Norfolk-based aircraft carrier USS Harry S. Truman.
The Navy says the incident is under investigation.

Dear Parishioners and Visitors
of Our Lady of Guadalupe Shrine,
We are all devastated and crushed by the terrible event that occurred on June 17th in Charleston, S.C. at the Emanuel African Methodist Episcopal Church. Ten people were shot while participating in a prayer meeting/bible study. Nine of the ten were killed including the senior pastor of the church. The young man who was charged with the crime is now in custody and awaiting trial.

Pastor's Message


text:
The Arbor: Roughly 700 films open theatrically in New York City. Philadelphia gets about a fourth of those. That means we miss some gems. One of the greatest casualties was Clio Barnard's ingenious doc, which relates the short life of working-class English playwright Andrea Dunbar through a simple device: actors lip-synch to the audio interviews with those she left behind, including a half-Pakistani daughter who fell into drug use. It's a striking and moving way to spice up documentary filmmaking's usual talking heads-and-exposition approach.
Leap Year: Just as some people must carelessly rent the wrong Crash, chances are some of the five or six people seeking to rent Leap Year, the Amy Adams rom-com, instead wind up with Michael Rowe's dark Mexican drama about a lonely sex addict who finally finds a partner who will join her in urolagnia and well, well beyond. Lead Monica del Carmen helps make an in-some-ways too tidy production as resonant emotionally as it is aesthetically.
Ong Bak 3: Video on Demand has made small/foreign genre films accessible to a wider audience, and that's fantastic. But it still would have been nice to see the latest from Thai ass-kicker and elephant-enthusiast Tony Jaa old school: on a big screen with a whooping crowd.
Putty Hill: The most exciting American indie released this year, Matthew Porterfield's city portrait offers a nonjudgmental look at young, low-income Baltimoreans in the wake of an OD, although most would rather hang out or play paintball than grieve. Porterfield casts mostly non-pros then interviews them in "character," and the jostle between real and fiction proves thrilling.
Shit Year: The same year Ellen Barkin became a potty-mouthed Twitter star, she delivered one of the year's finest performances. Cam Archer's kaleidoscopic, B&W character study casts Barkin as an aging, Barkin-esque actress who retires. She shouldn't follow suit.
To Die Like a Man: Now that Pedro Almodovar's transsexuals are played by hot actresses, the torch is passed to Portuguese filmmaker João Pedro Rodrigues. The maker of the formally adventurous O Fantasma and Two Drifters slows down for this elegy to an aging, dying drag queen that's alternately loopy, hypnotic and deeply melancholic.

Press release from Business Wire
Ruger Introduces LC9 Lightweight Compact 9mm Pistol
Monday, January 03, 2011
Ruger Introduces LC9 Lightweight Compact 9mm Pistol15:01 EST Monday, January 03, 2011 SOUTHPORT, Conn. (Business Wire) -- Sturm, Ruger & Company, Inc. (NYSE: RGR), announces the LC9™, a lightweight, compact 9mm pistol for discreet carry by law abiding citizens, or a full-power, no-compromise backup for off-duty law enforcement officers. This highly requested pistol was developed through Ruger's Voice of the Customer program and incorporates the features and rugged reliability desired by Ruger customers. The LC9 has a 3.12" barrel, is 6.0" long and 4.5" tall, making for a very compact 9mm pistol. The LC9 is impressively narrow at a mere .90" wide, and weighs only 17.1 ounces with an empty magazine. Featuring a black polymer (glass-filled nylon) frame and black alloy steel slide and barrel, the lightweight, full-featured Ruger LC9 offers the versatility and capability of the popular 9mm cartridge in a highly compact, reliable, and user-friendly pistol. "On the heels of the overwhelming and on-going success of the LCP®, customers repeatedly requested a lightweight, compact 9mm pistol. Frankly, they wanted an LCP chambered in 9mm," said Ruger CEO Michael Fifer. "Delivering an American-made, compact 9mm that provides the same legendary Ruger reliability as the award-winning LCP, LCR® and SR9® became our focus. Meeting customer expectations is our goal and key to Ruger's continuing success," Fifer continued. The LC9 is a double-action-only, hammer-fired, locked-breech pistol with a smooth trigger pull. Control and confident handling of the Ruger LC9 are accomplished through reduced recoil and aggressive frame checkering for a positive grip in all conditions. The Ruger LC9 features smooth "melted" edges for ease of holstering, carrying and drawing. One seven-round, single-column magazine is provided with each LC9 pistol. The magazine's standard flat buttplate aids concealability, while the provided finger grip extension buttplate offers an option to shooters who prefer a longer grip surface with more hand-to-pistol contact. Seven-round magazines, holsters and other accessories are available for purchase at ShopRuger.com. The wider rear aperture of the dovetailed, low-profile, two-dot rear sight aids quick acquisition of the single-dot, dovetailed front sight. This high-visibility, three-dot sight system provides fast, positive sight alignment. The slide locks open on an empty magazine and the external slide stop is easy to reach and manipulate for positive firearm functioning. A single-sided manual safety and a magazine disconnect are additional features of the Ruger LC9. A California-approved loaded chamber indicator allows for immediate visual and tactile confirmation that the chamber is loaded. A pivoting external extractor provides reliable extraction of the 9mm cases. For more information on the Ruger LC9, or to learn more about the extensive line of Ruger firearms, visit www.Ruger.com. To find accessories for the LC9 or other Ruger firearms, visit www.ShopRuger.com.

Lasagna Roll Ups
|Broiler fryer
|1 1⁄2 Cup (24 tbs)
|1 Small, sliced
|1 Teaspoon
|1⁄4 Teaspoon
|Spaghetti sauce mix
|200 Gram
|Canned tomato puree
|12 Ounce (1 Can)
|1 Dash
|2 Tablespoon
|Frozen chopped spinach
|10 Ounce, thawed (1 Package)
|Ground nutmeg
|1⁄4 Teaspoon
|Lasagna noodles
|1 Pound
|Mozzarella cheese
|6 Ounce, sliced (1 Package)
1. Cook chicken with water, onion, salt and pepper 40 minutes, or until tender, in a large saucepan.
2. While chicken cooks, combine the spaghetti-sauce mix, tomato puree, sugar and butter or margarine in a medium-size saucepan. Bring to boiling; reduce the heat; cover. Simmer 30 minutes.
3. Remove the chicken from broth; cool; reserve broth. Skin chicken; remove from bones, cut meat into small pieces.
4. For filling: Combine 1/2 cup of the reserved broth with half of the chicken and half of the spinach in the container of an electric blender. Cover and whirl until smooth, for about 1 minute. Place mixture in medium-size bowl, scraping sides of blender container with rubber spatula. Repeat with the remaining chicken, spinach and the 1/2 cup broth; add to mixture in the bowl; add nutmeg, blending well. (If you do not have a blender, chop the chicken and spinach as fine as possible, then stir in enough chicken broth to make a smooth paste.)
5. Cook lasagna noodles in a kettle, as label directs; drain; cool in a large bowl of cold water.
6. To make the roll-ups: Remove lasagna noodles, one at a time, from the cold water and pat dry with paper toweling. Spread with scant 14 cup chicken mixture; roll up, jelly-roll fashion. Repeat with all noodles.
7. Pour 2 cups of the prepared tomato sauce in the bottom of a shallow, 12-cup baking dish. Arrange roll-ups on the sauce, making two layers if necessary. Spoon remaining sauce over roll-ups.
8. Bake in moderate oven (375°) for 20 minutes. Cut the mozzarella in lengthwise strips and arrange on roll-ups. Bake 10 minutes longer, or until cheese melts and sauce is bubbly.

Many of the gender-variant male types were stigmatized; being regarded as women was hardly an elevation in social status.
But for me the elevation of feeling-over-thought was best encapsulated by the signs in the crowd.
There are dozens of fitness gadgets on the market that can measure movement, heart rate, elevation, and even body temperature.

The Center for Experiential Learning
boston college law school
Researchers say "learning by doing" results in 90% retention rates—far beyond the traditional 10% from classroom lectures.
Our new center brings all of our experiential learning programs under one roof. It encourages collaboration across legal disciplines and provides a focal point for any idea that relates to the practice of law.
We encourage all students to participate in some form of experiential learning—from programs that provide services ranging from civil litigation to overturning wrongful convictions, to externships at major law firms, businesses and non-profits, to participation in our highly regarded and award-winning oral advocacy programs. Our goal is to provide students with a deeper understanding of what it means to practice law and to be career-ready upon graduation.
The breadth and depth of our programs are important. But the core of any educational institution is the strength of its faculty. We offer the very best teachers and mentors the legal academy has to offer—from podium to practicum. It takes only a few moments with a BC Law professor to understand that they have a passion for teaching and for the higher calling of law that cannot be matched anywhere else.

Balogna & more
We will be on the east coast of Italy, in Vasto for a weeding this summer, and we are thinking of heading to Balogna. Rick does not cover Balogna so I wanted to hear from anyone who has been there what they thought. We will probably have two or three days in that area. If you have other suggestions for the east coast of Italy I would love to see them as well.

Re: Can Anderson Silva surpass fedor as the greatest ever?
Yeah I can understand that. Couture's a difficult one due to his record but you look at the way he's been able to find success in several 'eras' of competition it is incredible. And he's really one of those fighters who developed strategies and techniques that have become widely adopted. And remember everything he's achieved in MMA came after his physical peak, who knows how good a twenty-eight year old Couture would have been in the cage.
What he does lack is that one great title run. Its a shame he fell out with the UFC in 2007 because he could easily have held onto that belt for a while and got what would have been a career defining victories over the likes of Nog and Mir (Nog won the fight when it happened in 2010 but I think Couture would have been well placed to win over five rounds and with the advantage of Nog not being familar with the cage).

Lashley rooting for Punk
During a recent interview, Bobby Lashley stated that a lot of professional wrestling fans are going to be mad when CM Punk makes his UFC debut and actually wins the fight. A lot of WWE fans are still upset with Punk for leaving, so they are being petty by rooting against him doing well in MMA. Lashley is well aware of this, so he is not afraid to speak out.

Alberto Del Rio rejects UFC
Back when he was a free agent, Alberto Del Rio was fielding offers from several companies. One of those companies was UFC. The promotion really wanted the former world heavyweight champion to come in and do a couple of fights. However, Del Rio was forced to reject their offer because the two sides could not come to terms on money. He stated that he was doing so well in professional wrestling that it would be a pay cut to jump to MMA.

Chael Sonnen to GFW
Chael Sonnen is a good talker, loves professional wrestling and has name value from his career in UFC. Those three reasons are why expressed interest in signing him to a contract. However, the former MMA star has opted to join GFW instead. The announcement was made this morning that Sonnen would be joining the company and serving as an analyst. This deal has led to speculations that Global Force Wrestling is close to a television deal.

GSP in WWE
Ask any UFC fan, and they will more than likely have nothing but kind things to say about the legendary Georges St Pierre. After all, he was one of the biggest draws in MMA for a reason. He is now expressing interest in professional wrestling. GSP revealed to fans at a convention that he is definitely interested in making an appearance in WWE, something similar to what Ronda Rousey did at Wrestlemania. Management should be calling soon.

Rampage Jackson bashes TNA
An MMA reported stated through social media that Rampage Jackson lost his desire to do professional wrestling because of the way that TNA handled his career. In response, a representative from the company pointed out the special treatment that the former UFC star was given. The front office paid for a private jet, and they also provided accommodations to his entourage. It is also being said that Jackson was afraid of taking bumps.

Cain Velasquez to WWE
When asked if he was open to a career in professional wrestling, Cain Velasquez said that it would be something that he might consider down the line. Right now, he is focused on his career in UFC. If Velasquez does choose to make the jump after retiring from MMA, the belief is that WWE would definitely be interested in someone with his level of name value. He has fought Brock Lesnar before, so that match would be a possibility.

Bobby Lashley vs Batista
For a small period of time there, promoters really wanted to put together an MMA match between Bobby Lashley and Batista because they felt that they would be able to draw in a bit of interest from professional wrestling fans. That possibility is said to be completely off the table now. While Lashley is still involved in the sport, his counterpart has moved on and is now focused primarily on his burgeoning career in Hollywood.

UFC stars at Wrestlemania
Fans of MMA have long ridiculed professional wrestling fans by repeatedly reminding them that they are watching a fake sport. Ironically enough, though, the UFC fighters themselves are fans of WWE. Several of them were spotted sitting in the audience at Levi Stadium during Wrestlemania. Some names mentioned were Chael Sonnen, Daniel Cormier, Jessamyn Duke, Nate Diaz, Gilbert Melendez, Shayna Baszler and Marina Shaffir.

Santino Marella reality show
Since his injury is taking longer to heal than initially expected, there is a chance that Santino Marella might never be able to make his in ring return to WWE. Fortunately, though, he planned ahead. Marella has a couple of outside business interest, including a reality television show that is being worked on. His wrestling and MMA school is slated to be the premise of the series. The Fight Network will be the ones to air the unnamed show.

Goldberg son in WWE
You can rule out at least one potential second generation wrestler joining WWE. Goldberg told TMZ during an interview that he would never allow his son to work for the company. He stated that he purchase a wrestling promotion and have his son work there than to ever allow him to work in a company ran by Vince McMahon and Triple H. Irregardless, though, it appears that the 8 year old boy is leaning more towards an MMA career.

Italy has said it would follow U.S. and skip summit unless radical changes made to draft bashing Israel.
The European Union said Monday it could boycott a United Nations conference on racism next month unless Muslim nations end attempts to strongly criticize Israel in the meeting's final document.
Czech Foreign Minister Karel Schwarzenberg, whose country holds the EU presidency, said EU nations were very skeptical over the direction of negotiations on a declaration being drafted for the so-called Durban II conference. He adds the 27-nation bloc will attempt to push for changes but there is a strong call to withdraw if they are not successful.
Italy's Foreign Minister Franco Frattini said earlier this month his country would not attend the April 20-25 meeting in Geneva unless radical changes were made to the draft text, which includes what he has called aggressive and anti-Semitic statements.
United States, Canada and Israel have also said they fear the UN talks will be marred by attempts to attack Israel and shield Islamic countries from criticism over their records. Washington has imposed conditions similar to EU nations' and Israel and Canada have already announced they will boycott.
German Foreign Minister Frank-Walter Steinmeier warned the Geneva meeting might be abused to produce one-sided statements about the Middle East peace process and European and American policy in the Muslim and Arab world.
"I am in favor of canceling participation in the conference, unless the documents are changed substantially within the next hours and days," said Steinmeier.
Dutch Foreign Minister Maxime Verhagen said a draft backed by the 57-member Organization of the Islamic Conference limits itself to Israel-bashing, anti-Semitism, limiting freedom of speech and other dubious texts.
The Islamic group of countries, many angry over cartoons and films attacking Muslims, has been campaigning for wording that would equate criticism of a religious faith with a violation of human rights.
"They were also pushing to equate Zionism with racism and banning the possibility of anyone to change his or her religion," Verhagen said.
The Geneva talks are meant to review progress in fighting racism since the previous summit in South Africa. That meeting was marred by harsh criticism of Israel and anti-Israel demonstrations at a parallel conference of non-governmental organizations.
