Bryanna Clark Grogan's Vegan Feast Kitchen/ 21st Century Table: The kitchen journal of a vegan food writer.. I'm on Facebook and Twitter (see links in sidebar at right).
Tuesday, August 9, 2011
I've been working on this recipe for a few weeks and served it to friends Sunday night for dinner-- it was all eaten up by 4 of us! You know that I've written about various types of kibbeh (here, and here in past posts (and there's another recipe in my new book), and what kibbeh is. Most kibbeh is made from meat, but many varieties are made from potatoes, squash and other vegetables, along with bulgur and onions and spices. I love kibbeh! I wanted to make a vegan meatless variety that was quick and easy to throw together, so I chose to use Yves "ground Round", but you could use any vegan "hamburger crumbles", or even 2 cups of ground seitan. It is very easy to make and it's best at room temperature, so it's fine-- better, actually-- to make it ahead of time.
I want to fool around with this recipe in future, perhaps adding dried fruit and or pine nuts, using a pomegranate glaze or sauce, layering with vegetables or lentils, etc. Any ideas?
To accompany:
Taheena Sauce
Process the onion in a food processor until minced, then add the "hamburger crumbles" and process until it is a slightly finer texture. Mix this with the remaining ingredients (except the olive oil) together well in a large bowl with your hands.
Press the mixture into 2 qt. round or oval baking dish, sprayed with olive oil from a pump sprayer, and press it down gently and evenly. (You can line the bottom with cooking parchment, if you like.) Spray the top with olive oil from a pump sprayer, or brush it on lightly. Cut the mixture carefully right through in a diamond pattern (see photos).
Bake, covered, for 1 hour. Place it under the broiler for a few minutes to brown the top slightly. This firms up as it cools and can be reheated. Re-cut the wedges you cut before baking and loosen the sides with a table knife. Serve with Taheena Sauce.

I was one of the first batch of amazon purchasers. I just got my book yesterday and after flipping through the pages wanted to check if there were any reviews or suggestions on what to try first and that's when I also noticed it was sold out! I can't wait to try a bunch of these recipes and maybe I'll post a review and pictures of my attempts.

Thank you Punkin! I haven't even seen it yet!! One lady told me she tried the Korean pancakes right off and really liked them.

I'm so excited for this post! You don't know how long my mom and I have been trying to convert her traditional Kibbeh recipe. I'm gonna try this!

CautiouslyAudacious, do let me know how it works for you, and any suggestions for seasoning, etc. I find that with vegan versions of things I have to use more seasoning than one normally would with meat.

Hi Bryanna - tried to get your new book through vegan essentials and customer service says they don't carry it.....
I'm in BC so is there anyplace you know of that carries it in Vancouver or around Duncan BC?
Best Wishes for your new book,

I received my pre-ordered copy of the book and I was thrilled to recognize the Moroccan Savory Celebration Pie as the recipe you kindly sent me when I asked for a recipe for a vegan bastilla. I've made it many times and it is always a success. It remains one of my favorite dishes. (I think it helps that my pizza pans have extended oval handles shaped on either side of the pans.)
This success gives me courage to try some of the other more complex recipes in the books and even make additions and modifications. We're doing Russian food this Friday and I plan to use the vegan sponge cake as a Russian Cherry Cake by adding fresh pitted cherries before baking.
Does this sound doable? I hope so.

Check back with them tomorrow, Cynthia. The owner wrote to me that it would be up tonight online (they have the books now), but maybe they didn't get it up yet-- try back tomorrow! It's only been out for barely a week, so it's early days yet in Canada. Please check back on this blog!

Bryanna, I got your new book two days ago. It looks wonderful! I have marked quite a number of recipes to try.
This morning for breakfast I made the yeasted oven pancake with apples. Yum! This will be repeated frequently. However, the recipe says that it serves 4 and the two of us managed to eat it all without any problem. Are we just big eaters or were you assuming it would be one item in a multi-course brunch?
I do have one question, about the Scandinavian Christmas Bread on page 237. The recipe calls for dough from a previous recipe, risen, and then lists flavorings and raisins and other dried fruit. When are we supposed to add the flavorings and dried fruit? It doesn't say. Before kneading? After kneading but before going into the refrigerator for rising? After rising but before shaping into ropes?
- Sun Aug 14, 09:29:00 AM PDT
- Bryanna Clark Grogan said...
OMG-- errata already! Thanks for the heads-up! Add it before kneading! Sorry about that!

A teacher at Cross High School has been arrested by the Berkeley County Sheriffs Office and charged with three counts of sexual battery of a student.
Ellen Lindsay Niemiec, 29, of Summerville turned herself in at the Sheriffs Office Thursday afternoon, according to BCSO.
She was released on a $21,092 bond and was told by the judge to stay away from Cross and its high school students, according to reports.
The BCSO has been investigating this case since receiving a complaint on April 28 in reference to the sexual battery of a student.
The investigation revealed that three students were victims of the suspect. Based on the ages of the students, two of the charges are felonies and one is a misdemeanor.
The investigation revealed that this conduct had been going on for several weeks prior to the Sheriffs Office being notified by the school principal, according to BCSO.
The safety of all students is the top priority of the Berkeley County School District, according to a statement released by the district Thursday afternoon.
Under no circumstances does the BCSD condone or tolerate any inappropriate conduct between its employees and students, the district said in a release.
When the administration learned of concerns with an employees alleged conduct, the employee was placed on administrative leave and the district reported the matter to law enforcement to begin an investigation, according to BCSD.
Since that time, the district has cooperated completely with the BCSO in its investigation.
We have learned today (Thursday) that the Berkeley County Sheriffs Office has charged the teacher with two felony and one misdemeanor counts of sexual battery with a student, BCSD Public Information Officer Susan Haire wrote in an email. Ms. Niemiec is no longer an employee of the district.
We are limited in these circumstances as to what we can properly say publicly, because we must protect the confidentiality of all district students and their families and because there is an ongoing criminal investigation in this situation.
Any questions about the investigation should be directed to the Berkeley County Sheriffs Office.

"Great overall Conditioner"
At first I was hesitant to try this based on the price, but I will never use another conditioner after using this one. I have English Springer Spaniels with long hair coats, and this conditioner keeps them mat free! Their coats have never been so shiney, soft, and easy to brush. This conditioner works wonders for itchy, dry skin too!! Considering the dilute ratio, this conditioner is actually not as expensive as I first thought. A gallon jug has lasted me about 9 months with 2 dogs getting bathed weekly. GREAT Product!!

Received this in a Birchbox, it's a sheer lip&cheek gel tint, similar to Benetint.

Lust is a mid-tone purple shade, from what I've seen it look pretty pigmented on other people but it hardly came through for me. Everytime I did put it on, it would fade after a few hours. Mine got dry and hard really fast. I'd stay away from this shade in particular, other UD eye liners seem better than this one.
This was recommended to me by my nail tech -_- who usually uses gel polish so I should have known better than to take this recommendation but I tried it. After using Seche Vite, nothing can really compare, definitely not this.

The sun came out on Sunday. A brief period of relief from northern frost. Due to the somewhat lingering 'in-transit' state of our house since moving (albeit 6 months ago), there are still boxes and 'stuff' all over the shop. Amongst the randomly dispersed items in our dining room is Ollie's bike (I know, don't judge me). This bike was a specially requested purchase, delivered by Santa just over a year ago. It is red. It is covered in what one might describe as Power Rangers 'bling'. It has been sadly abandoned in our dining room due to a) the lack of clement weather since we arrived here in the frozen north, b) the fact that his lordship had actually demanded (I mean asked Santa for) a Ben10 bike, not a Power Rangers bike, and c) the inconvenient surface cover of choice which lines our extensive driveway – Yorkshire stone gravel. Hardly conducive to training wheels.
Here's Ollie on the aforementioned bike at Xmas 2009.
And so, on this sunny day, my thoughts turned to a similar day in 2003 when, at the tender age of just 3 years old, a little boy was strapped reluctantly to his bike by his smiling but resolute mother, in a bid to conquer the balance issue and rid him of his 'stabilisers stigma'. I am not proud of the memory. There was much bruising and scraping and pleading (and that was just me!) but within a couple of hours we'd cracked it and I confidently filed away the bike's former back legs for posterity. George was infact the youngest kid in the street to be riding on two wheels back then, so I think we can chalk that one up as a success.
This is wee Georgie, aged just 3, a-ridin'!
Fast forward 8 years, and here is my wee Oliver, quickly advancing in years and still riding on training wheels! He is 4 and clearly I have failed him as a mother. I have been lax and lazy and remiss in not dealing with the situation. The shame and horror of it. What will the neighbours think? Will he ever find a friend who will play with him? I jest, of course, but Oliver does have one physical disadvantage in this scenario – he is unfeasibly, nay freakishly large. He has the outward appearance of one much older than himself. He has just celebrated his 4th birthday and amongst the purchases we made for him were some lovely new clothes – designed to fit a child aged 7! Ollie is not yet at school, but towers above the kids on their morning walk in their cute, tiny uniforms and clip-on ties. And so you see my problem. The issue must be tackled firmly and decisively this Spring.
So I have developed a 3 phased approach. Phase 1 – get him riding the bike WITH the stabilisers. Back in the saddle as they say. The execution of phase 1 began on this fine sunny Sunday morning. Much moaning ensued, and there was rather more pushing up the hills than actual pedalling. I did wonder at one point in the short, breathless voyage how this could possibly be so hard, until I looked up at Ollie to see him taking in the views and casually resting his feet on the side bar whilst I huffed and pushed his saddle up one of North Yorkshire's finest. There was also a brief attempt to leave the bike in the next street and walk home, which I quickly stamped out. The jury is out on Phase 1.
Phase 2 can cunningly be adopted simultaneously with Phase 1. The scooter. Cleverly, I confided in my husband that I had bought this scooter in order to improve Oliver's sense of balance in readiness for Phase 3. This was, of course, a lie. Nothing but hot air and an attempt at post-purchase justification on my part. I had bought it just because. Well, mainly because it is covered from top to toe in Spiderman branding – a pathetic attempt to ingratiate myself with my youngest son. It worked like a dream. He totally loves it. He scoots EVERYWHERE! He also falls off a fair bit (note to self – traumatic crack in the pavement story to follow from my own childhood), but here's the best part – his balance is definitely improving. I am a genius. Phase 2 working like clockwork.
Phase 3 of course will be where I whip out a spanner and remove the offending back legs (from the bike, not Oliver). He may be 8 by the time we reach phase 3, so the less said about it the better.
I was rummaging through some old stuff and found this photo. Me and my new GOLD bike (rocking the Nora Batty look). I clearly remember the terror when my dad took me out in the street to learn to ride it, and when he let go of my saddle without telling me. Much hurtling and hyperventilating. I hesitate to show the photograph, not because of the socks-and-Scholls error, but because you can clearly see that I was WAY older than 4. Hmmmmm.
This bicycle experience bore no comparison, however, to the cracked pavement incident in 1973, which left me scarred for life. My parents live(d) on a street with big hills at both ends. I had roller skates, plastic ones, which I loved, and would play for hours on the street with my friend from across the road. The gaping, dastardly paving stone caught my wheel and sent me tumbling in such an effective way that I fractured my left wrist. You know the rest – hospital, plaster cast, signatures, itchiness, celebrity status, etc., etc. If this had been 2011, the Local Authority would be facing a hefty law-suit from Accident-Prone-Helpers 'R' Us, but sadly this was 1973 and I was told not to be such a bloody clutz.
So, I have my spanner ready and waiting, the bike sits proud and ready in the dining room, and Oliver thinks he's going to come home and watch Johnny Test, but you and I know differently, right……….?
Come on, these are precious memories, and I'm saving mine in the order they happened on my family's lifelines at http://www.SaveEveryStep.com!! It's still completely FREE, so register whilst the offer is still open.
I am tagging on an April update here – he did it!!!!! A trip to the park with his big bro did the trick. The wheels are off, the landing was soft grass and within minutes Ollie was riding full speed across the whole width of the park solo!!!!! That's my boy.

Four years ago a group of freshmen took a chance on becoming the first incoming class of the upstart Wando rugby team.
There was no guarantee of success, no rugby experience between them, just a group of players eager to learn and a volunteer coach excited to lead his Warriors into battle. The lumps came early, but eventually the players got better. As the years passed, the youth matured and Wando earned its respect.
Last week, the Warriors closed an undefeated 2014 regular season with a road win over three-time defending state champion Chapin. Wando sits atop Rugby South Carolina's standings and is ranked No. 21 in the nation by Rugbymag.com heading into the playoffs. Of Wando's 15 starters, 13 are seniors, 10 from the inaugural season four years ago.
"When we started, we didn't know the rules. We didn't even know how to hold the ball," Wando head coach Tod Shepherd said. "We were teaching from the ground up. But the kids stuck with it. They lived it, they learned it and now they're dominating."
The Warriors lead the state in point differential by more than 40 points. They're led by seniors Ryan Springer and Davis Strobel. Springer is a scrum-half who facilitates throughout his team like a point guard on the basketball court. Strobel is a hooker who's most dangerous in a breakdown when teams are fighting for possession.
"Springer is the best high school passer I've seen," Shepherd said. "Strobel knows what it takes to win the battle of the breakdown and that's what you have do to win in rugby."
Austin Clark and Sean Keirnan are both shutdown defenders who bolster the Warriors' backline that's turned in four shutouts this season. Wingers Jon Cummins and Nick Hamlin both have dangerous speed and are consistent scoring threats. Riggs Law and Daniel Runck are the Warriors' second-row enforcers. Runck is 6-foot-4, 255 pounds, while Law goes 6-foot-3, 215 pounds.
"This is the most well rounded we've ever been," Shepherd said. "We have the full package. We can be a defensive team, put up the numbers, play in the trenches or we can play the speed game outside. I don't think we really have a weakness."
Shepherd says his players have all the intangibles of champions. The team is a tight-knit group that practices year-round, even by themselves out of season. When January's ice storms forced all high school teams to cancel practice, the Wando rugby players took it upon themselves to hold a players-only practice."
"They get pumped just to come to practice," Shepherd said. "They're motivated. They want to prove that they deserve to be considered one of the best teams."
Wando opened the season with a 55-point blowout of Columbia, but it wasn't until a five-point road win against perennial power Greenville a month later that Shepherd says the team knew how special this season could be. Wando didn't allow Columbia inside its 22-meter-line the entire match and held 70 percent possession against Greenville. But Shepherd says Friday's win over Chapin was the biggest in the program's history.
The win was Wando's first against Chapin, and secured home field advantage for the Warriors when they face Chapin again in the opening round of the playoffs Friday at Cario Middle. If the Warriors can get past Chapin twice in two weeks, they'll advance to the championship round the following week at Furman University in Greenville.
"We're focused like we've never been," Shepherd said. "Every one of these kids knows what's on the line. They've worked so hard. Their goal is to win state. They're focused on that. Anything less would be unfulfilling right now."

Family business — and your mouth — en fuegoMarch 03,2014
By Tara Kelly
Three years ago, Mary Jane Raiche of Ira looked out at her sizeable home garden and asked herself, "What am I going to do with all of those tomatoes?" She poked around different recipe books and decided to try making salsa. Her friends and family were immediately smitten with its hearty texture and fresh taste.
As Mary Jane tinkered with the recipe, her husband, Bob, started bringing the salsa to his co-workers. They served as taste testers and gave critical feedback about the product. Through word of mouth, the sales started to spread. Eventually, a jar even found its way to a potluck in Boston where a well-known chef got a taste of the salsa's fiery flavor. Reportedly, she said it was the best she ever had. It was then that the Raiches knew they were on to something.
In a society that measures economic activity by jobs added, square feet developed and capital investments made, Raiche's Salsa hasn't yet registered on the radar screen of economists. However, it is part of a much richer story than economic data will ever tell. It is the story of a Vermont family making a living through ingenuity and hard work.
The Raiches are practical people. They have taken one small step at a time with their burgeoning salsa business. Mary Jane makes large batches in her home kitchen during the small amount of free time she has after working her full-time job managing the local McDonald's. Meanwhile, Bob calls on the skills and connections he made as a delivery driver for Thomas Dairy. And together, they have created something that people really want.
Early on, local businesses such as Poultney Pools and the Main Street Market in West Rutland began carrying the salsa, and now their product is found at some of the local Price Chopper stores including Rutland and Manchester.
How did they do it? Well, they certainly make it sound easy enough. At first, Mary Jane told Bob, "I'm not making any more salsa until you can show me it will sell." So, Bob loaded up the trunk and began knocking on the doors of retail food stores.
"If I liked the looks of it, I stopped and went in," Bob said. "The food co-ops have been really great to work with in Rutland, Middlebury and Manchester."
Like most good stories, there was a little luck along the way. The person doing corporate purchasing at Price Chopper got to talking with Bob and it turned out the buyer grew up right behind Thomas Dairy.
Of course, there were a number of great people who helped out along the way. A neighbor who is a graphic designer created the attractive, eye-catching label, and as a seasoned businessperson in the food industry, John Thomas, of Thomas Dairy, provided valuable advice.
But the product sells itself. Mary Jane has a strong commitment to quality. She only uses fresh ingredients — nothing canned. Then each jar is hand-packed to remove excess liquid. These details make a world of difference in taste.
But, as with any small business, there are always challenges. Bob had a major health issue last fall that really slowed things down. It happened right at garlic-planting time. Though thanks to friends, including local farmer Frank Gorham, 800 heads of garlic were planted for use in this year's batch. While they use as much locally grown produce as possible, Mary Jane and Bob haven't yet timed their salsa production to operate with exclusively local ingredients. And they also find it valuable to produce fresh batches of salsa throughout the entire year, when local isn't always an option.
When I asked the Raiches about their plans for future business growth of the salsa, they talked about wanting to keep the business small enough to maintain its high quality. So will this salsa operation ever register with the economists? Maybe not. But, in the meantime, a great family is producing an outstanding product that is meeting a consumer demand while earning them some extra income. It seems like that ought to count in someone's books.

Filtering Byexhibition X For Adults X
The city provides the context for the visually packed work of San Francisco native Barry McGee. Since the mid-1980s, when McGee was a teenager, he has lived in the city's oldest neighborhood, the Mission District. At that time, the Mission held a colorful, somewhat seedy, antiestablishment atmosphere with a thriving culture of youth, alternative musicians, artists, and thinkers. The vibe of the Mission influenced the artist early on, and he began to infiltrate the area's flourishing graffiti boom with images that he created to reflect his surroundings.
New York-based artist Gary Simmons is known for his "erasure" technique, which he began using in the early 1990s. Initially creating semi-erased works with chalk on blackboards, the artist has evolved to works on paper, paint on canvas, and murals that mimic smudged chalk. The resulting blurred and ghostly images often refer to intersections of pop culture, race, and class.
British/Nigerian artist Yinka Shonibare MBE explores colonialism and the intricate ways in which it has shaped, and continues to shape, cultural identities. He is well known for his life-size sculptural tableaux featuring staged, headless mannequins dressed in elaborate period garments. In these works, the materials and designs of the original clothing are replaced with batik, a colorful and ornately patterned fabric.

NEWTOWN – The Burch Bulldogs took advantage of two late turnovers to defeat the Gilbert Lions 24-8 to win the Mingo County middle school football championship Thursday night at Buck Harless Stadium.
The title game was played in front of a big crowd on a warm Indian summer night on the campus of Mingo Central High School.
It was the first county championship since 2001 for Burch Middle School. They also avenged an earlier season loss to Gilbert, who came into the game with a perfect 8-0 record. Burch ends the season at 7-2.
The first half was a defensive struggle.
Burch hit pay-dirt with :45 second left in the first quarter when quarterback Jeremy Dillon broke free on a keeper and raced 60 yards for a touchdown. Dillon also ran in for the 2-point conversion to make it 8-0.
The Lions threatened to score in the second quarter, however Burch came up with a big goal line stand. They took over on their own 2-yard line. Unable to get a first down, the Dogs were forced to punt.
The short kick gave Gilbert excellent field position on the Burch 26 yard line. On their second play from scrimmage Lion quarterback Hunter Lester hit Travis Coangelo, who made a great leaping catch, on the 1-yard line.
Then on the next play Lester scored on a 1-yard plunge with no time left on the clock. The Lion signal caller bulled his way in for the 2- point conversion and the two teams went into the dressing room at the half tied at 8-8.
The third quarter continued to be a defensive battle between the two top seeded teams in the county.
Late in the quarter Burch's Andrew Dingess stripped the ball from a Gilbert back to give his team possession heading into the final quarter.
Three plays later Joe Hunt scored on a 17-yard run for the Bulldogs. Hunt ran in for the conversion to give Burch the 16-8 lead.
Gilbert got a break when they were unable to get a first down and they were forced to punt. But, a roughing the kicker penalty gave the Lions a first down and new life. They had the football right on the 50-yard line.
However, Dalton Sheppard came up with a big interception and ran it back for another Bulldog score with 3:24 left in the game. Keebo Cunningham caught the 2-point conversion from Dillon to give Burch a 24-8 lead.
Burch was able to get the ball back and run out the clock and bring home the big trophy.
Gilbert had 157 yards of total offense, 133 on the ground and 24 passing. Burch ended up with 153 yards of offense, 148 on the ground and the rest through the air.
Dillon led the Dogs with 87 yards rushing, while Hunt had 86. Caleb Lester led Gilbert with 51 yards rushing.
Gilbert is coached by Jared Lester. The Lions ended the season with a fine 8-1 record.
Burch is coached by Joey Evans and assisted by Melvin Cunningham. They ended the year with a 7-2 record.

Guide to the diagnosis, treatment and prevention of conditions from A to Z.
Virtually every woman is affected by a gynecological condition or infection at some time during her life. Consider the following:
Aside from AIDS, the most common and serious complication of sexually transmitted diseases among women is pelvic inflammatory disease (PID). In the U.S., more than 1 million women experience an episode of acute PID each year, with teenagers having the highest rate of infection.
It is estimated that 5 million women and girls of childbearing age in the U.S. have endometriosis. Endometriosis is one of the three major causes of female infertility.
Chlamydia, a sexually transmitted vaginal infection, is the most frequently reported infectious disease in the U.S. However, 75 percent of women have no symptoms and may not seek health care. Left untreated, 40 percent of women will develop PID and many of these women will become infertile.
Consider the following gynecological cancer statistics from the American Cancer Society:
Cancer of the endometrium is the most common cancer of the female reproductive organs. It is estimated that 47,130 new cases of endometrial cancer will be diagnosed in the U.S. in 2012, and about 8,010 women will die from endometrial cancer.
Ovarian cancer is the eighth most common cancer among women. It is estimated that about 22,280 new cases of ovarian cancer will be diagnosed in the U.S. in 2012. Ovarian cancer accounts for 3 percent of all new cancers in women and causes more deaths than any other cancer of the female reproductive system. It is estimated that there will be about 15,500 deaths from ovarian cancer during 2012.
The mortality rates for cervical cancer have declined sharply as Pap screenings have become more prevalent. About 12,170 cases of invasive cervical cancer will be diagnosed in the U.S. during 2012. It is estimated that 4,220 women will die from cervical cancer during 2012.
When vulvar cancer is detected early, it is highly curable. It is estimated that about 4,490 cases of vulvar cancer will be diagnosed and 950 women will die from this cancer in the U.S. in 2012.
Vaginal cancer is relatively rare. It is estimated that approximately 2,680 cases of vaginal cancer will be diagnosed in the U.S. during 2012. This year, 840 women will die from vaginal cancer.

I just wanted to say hi. I just moved from Chicago to Kenosha. I have a 20 month old daughter, and developed pre-e with her. It was not detected until my 38 week appt at which time I had am emergency c-section. She was born at 4 1/2 pounds...but is now a healthy, crazy 20 month old :)
It was such a scary experience...the last 2 weeks of my pg...I wa sin so much pain, and the Drs kept telling me it was "normal". I had 2 weeks of unbearable pain before they finally diagnosed it.
Now, I am so scared to go through it again. I would really like to give my daughter a sibling, but I am so scared to get pg again.
I know I would want to go to a specialist before TTC. Does anyone know of one in the area? I guess that is a good place to start.
Looking forward to getting to know you all!

Chattanooga Head Coach John Shulman
Thoughts on the game
"Give Mercer credit. They are a good basketball team. They won 27 games last year and lost one player. So they have everybody returning, and we look like a young basketball team just trying to find itself. We played hard. We cut it to a 6-point game, and we're shooting like we're shooting and turning the ball over at silly times to a really good basketball team that just beat Florida State at Florida State. To tell you the truth, I don't know how we were down six. I would say our effort was very good. It's hard for me and I feel bad for the fans. All I am saying is that it's a process, and I want it, too. I am impatient, too. I know they have every right to be impatient, and I understand that. Our players are impatient, but we've played four straight really good teams. We're hanging in there, but playing just well enough to still be on the outside looking in. We just have to keep on working. I don't think being negative is a good thing right now. We just have to keep on busting it and working at it. Gee doesn't mean to miss three free throws in a row. That's just the place that we're in right now, but Mercer was up 37 on Furman earlier this year. They're a good basketball team. We just played a great basketball team, didn't do anything right and were only down by six points. I feel bad for our kids, fans and us, but we're battling. It's not fun, but it's a process. It is what it is."
Thoughts on the play of Alex Bran and Martynas Bareika
"Alex came in and gave us a great spark off the bench. Alex can really shoot the ball and he works his tail off in practice. I thought Martynas gave us a great spark. He had seven rebounds, played 24 minutes and played his tail-end off. We're going to get rewarded if we keep battling. I like our guys. I hate our record, but I love coaching this team. I like our kids because they are good kids. We have four freshmen out there logging a ton of minutes, now five with Alex Bran, and we have a lot that are inexperienced. We just have to hang in there and keep on battling. You never know what can happen."
Thoughts on Thoughts on filling holes on the floor
"I think Alex has earned himself some more playing time. He gave us a spark and he gives it his all every day in practice. I also thought Sam Watson played much better tonight, but you have to remember this. Mercer struggled a little early. Does anybody know why? Because Langston Hall was out. I am really hoping we are going to get back Dontay Hampton and Lance Stokes. Those are two great defenders, and Dontay is our best shooter. Like I said, we're not playing with a full deck. We're very young and inexperienced. We're going to keep on working and we're hoping for those two guys to get back. We're searching and we're working. Ronrico is playing a position right now that he's never played before, but the kids keep working."
Gee McGhee, guard, freshman
Thoughts on the game
"We came in with a different mindset on defense, and we executed our defensive stops. We had a couple of minor mishaps, but we'll clean it up. Alex Bran came off the bench and gave us a great spark and hopefully he continues to do that."
Thoughts on what needs corrected
"I have to do the little things. We have to talk, switch men and better our communication. I actually think we played a good game, but I don't think we finished it. We started well but we didn't finish."
On how he was able to get an open look at the basket
"I saw that they knew our plays, and it was hard because they kept yelling out our plays. I was just trying to think of something to do. I went to the bench afterwards and was talking to Dontay about them knowing our offense and asked him what I should do because I wanted to be on the floor. He just told me to tight-curl it and I'd find somebody open. I started doing that and they stopped following me so they could try to get through the screens. That's how I opened my shots."
Z. Mason, forward, junior
Thoughts on the game
"We just needed a spark. Alex Bran delivered for us and got us going. We were able to cut it down to single digits, but we just weren't able to top that. We just have to continue to fight. It hurts that we came up short in that situation."
What Alex Bran was able to do for the team
"He really got our team back into the game. He got the bench involved and really got us focused in. We were all frustrated because we weren't making shots, but he gave us the spark we needed when we were down. Hopefully he can continue to give us that push."
Thoughts on what needs corrected
"They were really playing us pretty tough. We have to cut out our simple mistakes because those have really been hurting us. If we can cut that out, we can put ourselves into some better positions."
Mercer Head Coach Bob Hoffman
On moving the ball and finding open looks
"We really have no single guy who is unbelievable. We have different players who have their own strengths. We try to move the ball and get the defense moving fast, and I thought that's what really helped us. If you stay on one side of the floor, their defense is outstanding. We did that a couple of times because their rotations are really good. When we started moving it and got some screens, it really helped us to get the extra pass and make shots. I should have probably run the clock near the end, but that is a credit to Chattanooga and their athleticism. We have to be better in those situations, and we've talked about it, but I am thankful we were able to finish and get it done on the road."

Rocking the Coffee Sock: How to Brew Coffee in a Woodneck Dripper
I had my first cup of "Woodneck"-brewed coffee at London's great, temporary Penny University, a coffee space that functioned more of a class—a fun class, no nodding off—than a cafe. Drinking coffee brewed from a device with deep aesthetic conflicts (beautiful carafe with wooden collar, inexplicably married to a very hippy-like hoop with, well, a dingy sock hanging from it) required a slight suspension of disbelief. But then again, when you're this far down the coffee tunnel, your disbelief is pretty much on hold indefinitely. (The coffee, by the way, was delicious.) More

text: I'd would have to agree with his trainer in some sense. I think GUS showed remarkable hands against Jones, hit jones with punches that Jones usually doesn't get hit with. His reach was a factor, but you need to be able to deliver the punches, use footwork, gauge distance and range, reset your hands for defense, transition from defense to offense, and throw the right punches at the right angles. Gus did all of those things that night and tore Jones up. People keep talking about jones moving up to HW, but Gus could cause the HW division more problems with his hands.

Two houses are in jeopardy of being replaced with an office building.
The houses are on W. 1st North Street, near the intersection of Cedar Street, directly across from Parks Funeral Home.
Heyward Hutson, president of the Summerville Preservation Society, said Summerville Commissioners of Public Works is in the process of trying to buy the property being occupied by the two houses. Hutson is concerned CPW will tear the houses down, and such a decision shows total disrespect to the historic district and what attracts people to Summerville.
I definitely dont want to start demolishing property, Hutson said.
CPW Manager Charlie Cuzzell said CPW wishes to build an office building on the property if its able to acquire it. He said he does not know what the future of those two houses will be, but right now CPW is negotiating a contract to acquire both parcels. Details of the contract are still being finalized.
Were trying to resolve some issues because theres a lot of people involved, Cuzzell said.
Cuzzell said if CPW is able to acquire the property it will probably move forward immediately to start developing a new office building.
Were buying it for a specific purpose and well move forward with that purpose, he said.
Cuzzell said the reason for the move is because the current CPW building, which occupies a former post office at West Richardson Avenue and Cedar Street, lacks sufficient parking. The building has neither handicap access nor a drive-thru something, Cuzzell said, customers have requested.
I dont know how historic the houses themselves are, he said. I can tell you theyre not in very good shape. I dont think anyone has lived there in years.
As of right now CPW does not have any architectural designs of what the office building would look like.
It doesnt make sense to lay out a building until we know where its going to be located, he said, adding the commissioners will not determine what to do with the existing building until they decide how to proceed with developing a new office location. The time needed to acquire a site, develop plans and complete construction will take a good while with plenty of time to consider the issue.
Hutson plans to address CPW on the matter. He said he has concerns about the town not respecting the historic district of Summerville.
The two homes arent actually in the towns historic district. The district ends at the railroad tracks, with the exception of a couple of individual properties that were added to the historic area in recent years.
Hutson also questions this with the towns plan to build a new hotel near the corner of Cedar Street and Richardson Avenue.
Nobody in Summerville has had the opportunity to express concerns about these actions to the Summerville Town Council and CPW, he said. Thats not the democratic way.
Hutson said all entities involved are friends of his.
I dont have anything personal against any of them, he said. I consider all of them friends, but I dont feel the path they are taking is appropriate.

Rematches between top 5 LHWs are better than putting Jones in there with people who are unranked in his division.
A division is not cleaned out if the champion is not competing in rematches against whoever is the number one contender at the time.
Glover and Gus are next up for Jones. But there are still enough rematches until more prospects arise.

MAN — The Man High School softball team rallied to beat Class AA Wyoming East 6-5 on Friday night.
The Lady Billies trailed 5-4 heading into the bottom of the seventh before plating two runs to win it.
Man improved to 2-1 on the season with the win. The Lady Billies, which lost at sectional foe Sherman on Thursday night by a 1-0 score, are ranked No. 3 in the state in Class A.
Man ace Taylor Tomblin picked up the win against East.
Cari Blair led off the bottom of the seventh inning with a walk on four straight balls by Lady Warriors hurler Larisha Davis.
Kelly Grimmett then laid down a bunt and Wyoming East catcher threw the ball over the first baseman's head into right field as Blair came around all the way from first to score, tying it up at 5, while Grimmett raced to third on the two-base throwing error.
Wyoming East head coach Doc Warner then called for a mound conference.
Then on the first pitch to Summer Sword the ball got by the catcher and Grimmett raced home for the game winner as Man came away with the 6-5 win.
Wyoming East had taken an early 3-0 lead after plating three runs off Tomblin in the first inning. The big hit was a two-run single off the bat of Leah Bailey.
Man then answered with two runs of its own off Wyoming East starter Davis.
Grimmett had a one out single. Sword then bunted but it was misplayed by East as the throw went down the right field line, scoring Grimmett to make it 3-1. Tomblin then helped her own cause with a long sac fly to deep center field, scoring Sword to cut the deficit to 3-2.
Both teams went out quietly in the second inning.
The Lady Billies tied the game up at 3-3 in the home half of the third frame as Sword ripped a two-out double and then scored on an RBI single by Tomblin.
Tomblin then got the Lady Warriors out in order in the top of the fourth inning.
Tabby Ferguson led off the Man's fourth stanza with a solid single up the middle. Casey Albright then laid down a perfect bunt and the pitcher then threw the ball to first ball. The ball, however, hit Albright in the back of the helmet and the ball went into right field scoring Ferguson. The home plate umpire, though, called Albright out saying she was inside the line thus interfering on the play. Ferguson then had to return to first base on the dead ball taking the run off the scoreboard.
Micayla Gibson then popped out to the shortstop and Elizabeth Dickerson then struck out to end the threat with the game still tied 3-3.
Wyoming East then took the lead in the top of the fifth inning off Tomblin, scoring two runs to make it 5-3. Chelsey Duncan led off with a bunt single. She was followed by a single to right field by Brenna Perte as both runners moved to second and third. Larisha Davis then grounded out as both runners had to hold. Then Emily Davis delivered a two-run single to give WEHS the 5-3 edge.
Man cut the lead to 5-4 in the bottom of the fifth inning of play as Blair led off with a double off Davis. Grimmett then laid down a sac bunt moving Blair to third. Sword then had an RBI ground out to make it 5-4.
Both teams went scoreless in the sixth inning.
Tomblin then gave up a leadoff single to Davis in the top of the seventh inning but was then able to get them out in order heading into the bottom of the seventh frame as Man would rally with the two runs for the 6-5 win.
Tomblin struck out eight batters and scattered 10 hits to pick up the win.
The Lady Billies had six hits in the game, led by Ferguson who had two.
Man is scheduled to return to the softball diamond on Monday at Fayetteville in a 2 p.m. ballgame. Man is back home on Tuesday against Westside in a 5:30 p.m. contest. Man plays in the Chapmanville Lady Tigers Invitational April 4-6.

kudos: the new design high school
New Design High School is a small high school in New York City where the design process is used as the foundation for learning everything—from academics and artistry to the emotional and social skill sets needed to live a healthy, productive life.
With the goal of understanding real world contexts, self-expression and problem solving, this new type of high school engages its students in the processes of design: observing behavior, identifying needs, framing problems, working collaboratively, exploring and appreciating solutions, weighing alternatives, and communicating ideas verbally, graphically and physically—all which extend outside a classroom and beyond graduation.
By integrating these 7 idea, concept and process steps of the design process into a high school curriculum, students learn how to identify and create solutions to any problem—just like designers do.
New Design High School was co-founded by Urban Arts Partnership, a not-for-profit organization with a mission to advance the intellectual, social and artistic development of underserved public school students through arts-integrated education programs to close the achievement gap. As NDHS's lead cultural partner, Urban Arts provides arts-integrated education programs to complement the school's design-based curriculum and methodology.
We're thrilled to have been introduced to NDHS and to have partnered with them for our Eastside NY store opening in October. To see how we celebrated, check out the photos in our facebook gallery. And to learn more about the school, watch Principal Scott Conti's talk at the 2010 TEDxDUMBO event.

Just wondering if anyone here has dealt with hearing loss and a child wearing hearing aids.
Michael failed his newborn screening in 08, March 09 diagnosed with a mild-moderate hearing loss in right ear, 3 weeks ago follow up revealed high frequency hearing loss in both ears so yesterday at the 2nd appt we discussed and molded him for hearing aids. He is 18 mos and hardly says any true words. Lots of sounds, etc. He is being seen through our state Early Intervention and now on waiting list for Speech Therapy...but I'm going through a hosp for speech as well using my insurance as we have no idea how long it'll take via the EI program.
I'm 100% fine with him being aided as a preemie I know that he could have many other issues. I wish his father wasn't so ignorant about why the aids are a good thing (but that's another topic).
So, just looking for any tips, support, good book to read, etc. My best friend since 3rd grade is an audiologist so it's been a real help to have her to lean on too.

The X Factor
Who Is Paige Thomas? X Factor 2012 Finalist Bio
UPDATE: Paige was eliminated on November 29, 2012.
In The X Factor Season 2 premiere, we meet the darling (and super talented) Paige Thomas in unfortunate circumstances: as the target of Kaci Newton's malicious mocking. Turns out, Kaci falls flat on her face during auditions — but Paige made it all the way to the live shows and on into the Top 12!
In short: get ready to fall in love with this soulful singer, who also happens to be a single mother to her 3-year-old daughter. And that's not the only hardship this gorgeous diva has faced in her life; Paige lost her mom when she was only six years old.
This isn't Paige's first live talent competition rodeo; she made it through auditions and into American Idol boot camp during both Season 10 and Season 11.
Check out Paige's cover of Rihanna's "Cold Case Love" below!

Job Descriptions Are Better When They Focus on Results

Aiken County could see significant changes to the way it handles garbage disposal, according to local lawmakers, if a legislative proposal impacting solid waste disposal at landfills is approved.
A S.C. House of Representatives bill has already been passed and would restrict counties from instituting laws known as flow control ordinances, a local measure that requires all of a county's waste to be disposed of in that particular county's landfills.
According to Aiken County Administrator Clay Killian, Horry County currently has such an ordinance in its code of laws and has consequently triggered debate in the General Assembly.
The House bill, also known as the Business Freedom to Choose Act, is cosponsored by local S.C. Rep. Bill Hixon.
Hixon said he supports the proposal because it would help to keep solid waste disposal in the state as a competitive process and wouldn't allow counties to monopolize their garbage disposal procedures.
The vast majority of solid waste in Aiken County is transported to the Three Rivers Landfill. The landfill is a joint operation established decades ago by a collaboration of nine adjacent counties, including Aiken.
The landfill charges the county for the amount of trash it disposes through tipping fees, which are currently about $33 a ton.
He said the proposed ordinance could trigger a private trash company to undercut the tipping fees at Three Rivers and hurt its financial stability.
"We would be at the mercy of the private haulers as to where they would take it. That's a big concern of ours," he said, noting that the legislation could void such contracts and impact where the county's trash is disposed.
He noted that a private company would not have the same oversight as a public entity such as Three Rivers has and that local governments were not taking an "anti-business approach," but were trying to protect a valued asset for the public.
Hixon said he understands such concerns and has been told that the Senate bill is currently addressing those issues. He said he originally thought the bill might "die a slow death," but felt with the right adjustments, it could be approved and signed into law.
Massey said he still has concerns about the bill and wants to make sure the final product wouldn't negatively impact the Three Rivers landfill and trash disposal of local residents.
S.C. Sen. Tom Young said he hasn't examined the bill too closely yet since it hasn't come to the floor yet but also said he hopes amendments would provide legislative fixes to local concerns.
