As far as the Central Oregon music scene goes, one of the biggest weekends of the year is here as the Sisters Folk Festival takes over that little town 20 or so miles up U.S. Highway 20.
Today's GO! Magazine in The Bulletin has everything you need to know, including ticket info / full schedule / venue map and short pieces on some of the lineup's highlights: Steve Forbert, Anais Mitchell, Joe Pug and Cahalen Morrison & Eli West.
Plus, an interview with roots-rock legend and one of the coolest cats around, Dave Alvin! Here's an excerpt:
"I like to play as much as possible," he said. "To me, playing music live is what I love."
He continued: "My heroes were all about playing live. The old blues singers: Big Joe Turner, Lightning Hopkins, people like that, (they) played till they died. And people conjecture about why Bob Dylan is always touring and it's like, well, what else are you supposed to do? When you're playing live and you get that (interaction) with the audience, that is my religion. That's my church."
Which would make Alvin's songbook the hymnal. Long a master fusionist of rock, country, rockabilly, Tex-Mex and blues music, Alvin's new album "Eleven Eleven" crackles with an energy untapped on his previous, more acoustically inclined records.
I hope you'll click here and read the whole thing.
Elsewhere in the music section, we've got stories on tonight's mighty fine Finn Riggins / Tartufi show at The Astro Lounge and a piece on why Joan Osborne is more than just "One of Us."

May 31, 2011 -- Pregnant women who get a flu vaccine during flu season may be less likely to have a premature birth or deliver a baby of low birth weight.
A new study shows that women who received a flu vaccine during pregnancy and delivered during the flu season were 40% less likely to have a premature birth than were unvaccinated mothers. In addition, pregnant women who received a flu vaccine and gave birth during a period of widespread flu activity were less likely to have a baby with low birth weight.
Researchers say respiratory infections during pregnancy, such as influenza and influenza-related pneumonia, are associated with an increased risk of premature birth and low birth weight. Vaccination with a flu vaccine during pregnancy protects the mother and the infant from the most common viruses that cause influenza.
In the study, published in PLoS Medicine, researchers looked at the relationship between flu vaccination and the risk of premature birth before 37 weeks gestation and low birth weight (also known as small for gestational age) among 4,168 pregnant women who gave birth between June 2004 and September 2006.
The results showed that women who received the flu vaccine during pregnancy and gave birth during the flu season (Oct. 1-May 31) were 40% less likely to have a premature birth.
In addition, researchers found the flu vaccine's protection against premature birth increased during flu outbreaks. For example, during the eight weeks of the most widespread influenza activity, the risk of premature birth was about 70% lower among vaccinated mothers compared with mothers who did not receive the flu vaccine during pregnancy.
The study also showed that during widespread flu outbreaks, mothers who received the flu vaccine during pregnancy were 69% less likely to give birth to a low birth weight baby. Researchers did not find an association between flu vaccination and low birth weight risk during other time periods.
Researcher Saad B. Omer, of the Emory University Rollins School of Public Health in Atlanta, and colleagues say this was an observational study and can only show that there was an association between flu vaccination during pregnancy and reduced risk of premature birth and low birth weight. Further studies will be needed confirm these results and to demonstrate any causal link between the two.

A student / employee who seeks accommodations on the basis of disability must register with the Office of Disability Services in the Counseling Center, Clark Student Center Room 108. Documentation of disability from a competent professional is required.
Individuals with grievances related to discrimination or lack of accommodation on the basis of a disability are encouraged to resolve the problem directly with the area involved. If the matter remains unresolved, advice and/or assistance will be provided by the Office of Disability Services for resolution. The grievance procedure may be found in the Student Handbook and Activities Calendar.

Cormier will 'hurt' Rashad Evans to get his title shot, but he's not going to like it
The light heavyweight fight, which will be a five-round main event, will be the first for "DC" in the division, having competed at heavyweight his entire mixed martial arts (MMA) career.
And it's a bout the former Olympian initially didn't want, but understands that if he wants to get a crack at the division strap, he must try to "hurt" a guy he really likes to get there.
He broke it down on a recent appearance on "The MMA Hour:"
"Yup. it's official, Rashad and I are going to main event that card, my first UFC main event against a guy that, I think he's 22-3, most people do not get records like that without being really good fighters. Rashad won The Ultimate Fighter (TUF), light heavyweight champion, and I think this guy is going to be in the Hall of Fame one day. It's a true test to show where I am. I know you got to beat those types of guys if you want to get a championship fight. It is what it is."
He continues:
"I offered them (UFC) up a whole bunch of different scenarios and this was the fight that was going to happen. I would have preferred to fight someone else, but the UFC are going to make the fights and its our job to fight. I care about him a ton and I think he's a great guy, but now it's time to get down to business and were going to get in that cage and I have to try and hurt him. I can't go into the cage feeling like I don't want to hurt my buddy because otherwise he is going to hurt me and beat me and that will set me back and keep me from obtaining my goals."

NELSON X. CORONADO of Wood Dale, IL
For anyone not familiar with the project, Altar Boys is an independent film distributed by ThinkFilm and produced by Jodie Foster's Egg Pictures, based on the 1992 debut novel by Chris Fuhrman. Starring Kieran Culkin, Jena Malone, Jodie Foster, Emile Hirsch and Vincent D'Onofrio, this R-rated film is a coming-of-age drama from director Peter Care. The main characters are budding comic artists and the film uses nearly 20 minutes of Todd McFarlane's comic-style animation as a storytelling device.
When it opened in June, the media coverage was positive, with everyone from USA Today to Rosie O'Donnell giving the film praise. Foster, who also stars in the film, appeared on The Late Show with David Letterman and gave kudos to Todd's animation after showing a promotional clip.
McFarlane fans will enjoy the DVD Special Edition. Several extra features involve him, including the following as named on the DVD menu:
Animated scenes

UFC on FX 7 Results: What's Next for Michael Bisping?
UFC on FX 7 Results: What's Next for Michael Bisping? | Bleacher Report
After Failing in Third UFC Title Eliminator, Michael Bisping Promises to ReturnThis is nothing new for Bisping, who always seems to lose when it matters most (Kenny Florian feels you, bro), but the British standout undoubtedly feels more than a little gutted after squandered this opportunity.
Despite the devastating nature of this loss, it does not mark the end of the road for "The Count."
He is still a better-than-average fighter in the UFC's 185-pound division, and his trash-talking skills make him a consistent draw for the organization.
Thankfully for Bisping moving forward, he's already stirred up beef with two top middleweights while preparing for Belfort.
These two, Alan Belcher and Chris Weidman, were the source of much criticism courtesy of "The Count," and now a fight with either man looms.
Personally, I like Bisping vs. Belcher better right now.
For one, Belcher is not afraid to talk back and spew his own line of trash talk. Weidman, for his considerable talents, is not much of a showman, so Bisping vs. Belcher makes the most sense from a financial standpoint.
The matchup also makes more sense in keeping the UFC middleweight division churning smoothly. With Bisping out of the picture, Silva needs a challenger, and that man should be Weidman. He has done more to earn it at this point, and the New Yorker's stifling wrestling game could very well give "The Spider" issues.
Meanwhile, Bisping vs. Belcher is similarly fun. Both guys are solid everywhere the fight goes, and both are always well-prepared for combat.
Because of this, Bisping vs. Belcher makes sense on all levels.
In his post-fight interview, Bisping said he would "be back," and Belcher is a great place to start.
If, however, the UFC elects for a different matchup, I love the idea of Bisping vs. Rich Franklin to fulfill Franklin's final fight on his UFC contract.
The two match up well together, they are both well-known, proven commodities, and Bisping will make Franklin work if he wishes to close out his career in style.
After Failing in Third UFC Title Eliminator, Michael Bisping Promises to Return | 5thRound.com
"You win some, you lose some. I am not going away," Bisping stated during his in-Octagon post-fight interview. "Trust me, I'm gonna be back. I'll be back at the top of this pile before you [expletive] know it."

A Georgetown man says he was assaulted while at Sarahs Nightlife in Andrews June 28.
The man said while in the bar a 30-year-old man approached his girlfriend and told her she needed to be with him and not her boyfriend because, at age 46, he is too old.
He told her he could make her forget about her boyfriend.
He then proceeded to tell the victims girlfriend she has a fat rear end, the report states.
When the womans boyfriend confronted the suspect about his comments, the younger man turned around and hit him in the face with a closed fist.
The victim fell on the floor and the two started fighting. He said he was hit in the face several times with a closed fist.
The victim said he left the bar after the altercation.
A bartender confirmed the victims story about what happened.
The suspect, who was still at the bar when deputies arrived, was arrested for simple assault.
Equipment stolen
The Georgetown County Sheriffs Office is investigating more then $4,800 worth of equipment reportedly stolen from a sewer station near the intersection of Powell and Saints Delight Road.
An employee with the Georgetown County Water and Sewer District said the last time the equipment was accounted for was in January when inventory was taken.
The report states its different types of pipes and equipment that was stolen. The worker did say heavy machinery had to be used because the items taken weigh more than 1,000 pounds.
He said they have a camera but it points straight down from the water tower if its even working, the report states. He said he did not have any suspects in mind.
Repo man troubles
Deputies were sent to Maidenbush Road in Pleasant Hill June 25 because a man trying to repossess a car was having problems.
The repo man said he was given permission to take the car by the owner of the uncle of the man who had the car because the car was on the uncles property.
The car was loaded onto the tow truck when the fiance of the woman who had the vehicle said one of the tires had been changed and it belonged to his cousin. The suspect jumped in front of the tow truck and would not let him leave. The driver said he moved up slowly and did not hit the man but the suspect began acting as if he had been struck by the tow truck.
The repo man was able to get out of the yard with the car in tow and then met with deputies. He showed them a video of the incident. He said the video would prove he never hit the man.
The driver said he wanted the incident on file in case anything happens in the future as a result of the repossession.
Cameras no help
A woman called Georgetown police June 24 and reported someone had used spray paint to vandalize the outside of an apartment on Avant Court.
The shape of a heart was painted using both white and black paint.
There are security cameras that police installed in that area recently but the camera was no help because someone had tampered with it making it point at the ground.
The estimated cost to repair the damage is $200.
Car vandalized
Deputies met with a woman from Myrtle Russell Place in Andrews June 29.
She said a group of kids were playing next to her house and she told them to leave because of recent damage they had allegedly caused. She said when she went outside she saw the passenger side window on her vehicle was broken.
The woman said she is aware identifying a suspect will be difficult but she wanted the incident documented.
The deputy said extra patrols of the area will take place during the day while the kids are active.

text: I don't think I have seen this movie since it came out in the theaters back in 1984. Firestarter is one of my favorite SK books and I remember liking (not loving) the movie back then. I caught the last 40 minutes or so on cable last night and I have to say that Drew Barrymore was heartbreaking in it. Made me want to go back and watch the whole movie again soon.

If it is determined that a foreign national is eligible for the O-1 visa and sponsorship and another visa type (e.g., J-1 or H-1B) is not an option, the Office of Global Services will file an O-1 petition for NYU with USCIS. In order to file an O-1 petition in a timely manner, Scholar Services requests lead time in advance of the desired appointment start date:
New cases can request O-1 status for up to three years. Concurrent or extension O-1 status is only granted in one-year increments, but is renewable indefinitely.
USCIS should adjudicate the O-1 petition (form I-129) according to the normal processing times posted on their website (subject to change). If necessary, cases can be expedited by using premium processing (form I-907) for an additional fee. The USCIS processes premium cases within 15 calendar days, barring delays due to security checks. Regardless of how an O-1 case is filed, the scholar may not begin working for NYU until our O-1 petition has been approved by USCIS, even if s/he currently has O-1 status with another employer.
The Office of Global Services can also assist with visa sponsorship for O-3 dependent spouses and children (unmarried, under the age of 21). Please note that O-3 dependents are not permitted to work in the U.S. under any circumstance, however they may study.

David Mitchell is a tall, gregarious man, full of energy and passion for the history of this place, into which his own is interwoven. After entering, unsure, into Old Clinton Barbecue, Mitchell's voice rang clear across the room. He was rattling off someone's lineage to a table full of rapt listeners like he was reciting the begats from the Old Testament. That clinched it that this was the right place.
After a quick caravan across the road, the tour started in a small portion of the Old Clinton Cemetery, cut off from the rest by Greene Settlement Road.
"I wanted to start here so that you could see some of the granite quarried in the place we're going today," said Mitchell.
The stonemason doing that quarrying was Jacob P. Hutchings, a former slave, who used the area now known as Jake's Woods as the source for such buildings as the first Jones County courthouse in Clinton. Many of the stones from the foundation of that building now make up the wall seen at today's courthouse.

CROQUEMBOUCHE or PIECE MONTEE
Our wedding was small, barely a dozen attended. A simple affair, a stroll to city hall, sitting in those gilded chairs fit for royalty, the sun streaming into the large, bright hall, the festive floral murals gracing the pale golden walls made for a celebration. My soon to be husband, glowing in his joy, sitting in his black brocante zoot suit looking rather stunned in disbelief and I, sitting happily, nervously next to him in something old, something new, something borrowed, something blue, a bit stunned myself at the wonder of sitting here in Bois Colombes marrying * gasp * a Frenchman. M. le Maire Adjoint walks in, seemingly as giddy as the soon-to-be-newlyweds, bringing with him an unexpected added gaiety to the party, his infectious booming laughter, and an electric buzz shoots through the room and we are off! With much less solemnity than we had expected, we are married by this rotund, funny gentleman who, in no uncertain terms, imparts his pleasure in joining a Frenchman and an American, his first American in 20 years of performing marriages. Sacrebleu!
His words washed over me like warm water and whenever he glanced in my direction, his eyes meeting mine, and he paused I simply stuttered "Oui" as if on cue. He prattled on, his words a lovely, incomprehensible jumble of French, or so I assumed, but nary a word did I understand. No matter. I knew what I was there for, I understood the gist and the huge, fatherly grin splashed across his face gave me the confidence that whatever he was having me promise must most certainly be for my own good.
After the ceremony, the exchange of rings, the fumbling kiss, the signing of the papers with shaking hands, we paraded back home in all of our married glory to a wedding brunch that we had cooked and prepared ourselves the day before. Champagne flowed amid the flowers, we ate and drank and I, in my stumbling schoolgirl French met many of his friends for the first time, giggling at their amazement and disbelief that he had actually, formally tied the official knot. And amongst the guests was one, his witness, his best friend, the one who came to the wedding decked out in red and green tartan plaid from head to toe for a laugh, carrying a baby stroller as a good joke, Olivier. Crazy, wild, funny Olivier with whom JP shares some wild and crazy stories of their adventures together. Well, this is a tale of his wedding, not our own humble affair. Our marriage was no traditional fête, no storybook Parisian wedding, no affair spread out in the dreamy pages of some American women's magazine; no elegantly dressed guests, no top-hatted gentlemen nor women in extravagant, frothy hats, no fancy white car decked out in flowers to whisk us off to church, no sophisticated string quartet entertaining us as we nibbled on catered fare. No, not even an engagement ring nor les fiançailles, no bridal shower nor stag party, and for dessert on that most special day of our lives? Homebaked Vanilla Sponge Cake with coulis de fruits rouges and a dense, decadent Chocolate Cake with Cognac Buttercream whipped up by the bride herself in her future Mother-in-Law's kitchen.
But Olivier's marriage, for a rather simple, low-key affair, pulled out all the stops and whistles. We arrived, two tiny sons and my older brother in tow, the day after their small, private City Hall knot-tying ceremony. We settled into the hotel in time to change and make it to his parents' huge, aristocratic stone pile for the pre-wedding party: lots of food, laughter and loud music as we wandered in amazement from room to room, avoiding small talk with people with whom we had very little in common. The next morning, we found our way to church for the traditional religious ceremony. Bride in a simple beige suit, groom sitting next to her, they listened to the priest for what seemed like hours, the ceremony long and solemn, much more solemn than I would have imagined for something as joyous as a marriage, and totally incomprehensible to me.
But what sticks in my mind most vividly of this entire weekend was the wedding dinner. We arrived as the sun was setting and were led into an unusual, pretty renovated mill all in dark wood and elegant lighting. Guests were milling about (sorry for the pun), admiring the romantic country setting, the beautiful surroundings, finding their way into the reception room. Gold tablecloths, glittering chandeliers, sophistication and charm as the stars lit up the sky outside and the bottles of champagne were opened, pop, pop, pop, one after the other, glasses filled and crystal clinking as the toasts to the newly married couple began. And then the food: oysters, platter upon platter of oysters, began arriving. We joined the line at the table up front and began loading down our plates with oysters and the other wonderful seafood that was carried out and placed amongst the bottles of bubbly. And we ate and we ate and we ate to our fill. And the platters of oysters and smoked fish and all of the delectable treats kept coming. And champagne, of course, to wash it all down. What seemed hours flew by and, completely sated, we simply were left wondering how late the party was to go on for and then it dawned on us. With horror did we realize, much too late, that in fact, the oyster and seafood bar was simply the appetizer. Yes, the appetizer. Just as we were pushing our seats away from the table we turned around and saw waiters carrying in the first course. Well, as polite as we were and as gauche as we were afraid of appearing, we put on our "yes, of course I know what's going on" faces, picked up knives and forks and dug in. First course, second, third, that huge traditional French wedding feast.
Applause then rose from the crowd, tipsy on food and champagne, as they wheeled in the pièce de résistance, le chef d-oeuvre de la soirée (the evening's masterpiece): La Pièce Montée: an elegant pyramid of perfect little choux buns, filled with pastry cream and piled up into a sumptuous creation, a delicate, graceful tower of tiny pastries dripping with cascades of golden threads of caramel, the delicate shower of sugary caramel giving this elaborate "Assembled Creation" its other name "Croquembouche" or "That which crunches in the mouth". This traditional wedding dessert is the French version of the American multi-tiered, frosted, flowered confection topped with tiny bride and groom figurines, a classic at all formal weddings. And we were now witnessing our very first. It is up to the bride to pull apart the tiny choux and pass them one by one to her guests, her way of sharing the happiness of the day. One version of the origin of this French wedding fixture dates back to Roman times when the bride would have a large crown of bread placed on her head. The bread was then broken as a sign of future fertility, a good luck token, if you will. The guests then picked up the pieces and ate them so they could enjoy the same good luck!
The May 2010 Daring Bakers' challenge was hosted by Cat of Little Miss Cupcake. Cat challenged us to make a piece montée, or croquembouche, based on recipes from Peter Kump's Baking School in Manhattan and Nick Malgieri. I absolutely adored this challenge, as I so love making both pastry cream and choux. I usually use my dear old dad's choux recipe, but this time I followed Cat's recipes. Mathilde, my wonderful Macaron assistant, came and spent the day with me so she could learn how to make these treasures! She came with her grandfather's choux recipe, too! We made both chocolate and vanilla pastry cream as they are both quite simple so Mathilde could learn. She was astonished that both the choux puffs and the pastry cream, although demanding careful attention, were quick and simple to make. This is such a perfect dessert to make when you want to impress family, friends and guests! And memories of my own marriage day as well as all of the weddings, simple and fancy, that I have been to flood over me….
Recipe from Peter Kump's Cooking School and chef Nick Malgieri
Vanilla, Chocolate or Coffee
For the Vanilla Crème Patissiere (Half Batch)
1 cup (225 ml.) whole milk (I used low fat)
2 Tbsp. cornstarch
6 Tbs (100 g) sugar
1 large egg
2 large egg yolks
2 Tbs (30 g.) unsalted butter (at room temperature makes it easier)
1 tsp vanilla
Dissolve cornstarch in ¼ cup of milk; whisk until smooth and there are no lumps. Combine the remaining milk with the sugar in a saucepan.Bring to a boil; remove from heat.
Beat the whole egg, then the yolks into the cornstarch mixture. Pour 1/3 of boiling milk into the egg mixture in a slow stream, whisking constantly so that the eggs do not begin to cook.
Add the rest of the hot milk to the egg mixture then return all of it back into the casserole and return to the heat.
Continue whisking (this is important – you do not want the eggs to solidify/cook) until the cream thickens and comes just to a boil. Remove from heat and beat in the butter and vanilla.
Pour cream into a heatproof pyrex or stainless steel bowl. Press plastic wrap firmly against the surface. Chill immediately and until ready to use.
For Chocolate Pastry Cream (Half Batch Recipe):
Bring ¼ cup (about 50 ml) milk to a boil in a small pan; remove from heat and stir in 3 ounces (about 80 g) finely chopped semisweet chocolate; mix until smooth. Whisk into pastry cream when you add the butter and vanilla.
For Coffee Pastry Cream (Half Batch recipe):
Dissolve 1 ½ teaspoons instant espresso powder in 1 ½ teaspoons boiling water. Whisk into pastry cream with butter and vanilla.
Pate a Choux (Yield: About 50)
¾ cup (175 ml) water
6 Tbsp. (90 g) unsalted butter
¼ tsp salt
1 Tbs sugar
1 cup (125 g) all-purpose flour
4 large eggs
For Egg Wash: 1 egg and pinch of salt
Pre-heat oven to 425°F (220°C) . Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
Combine water, butter, salt and sugar in a saucepan over medium heat. Bring to a boil, stirring occasionally. As soon as it boils, remove from the heat and sift in the flour, stirring to combine completely.
Return to heat and cook, stirring constantly until the batter dries slightly and begins to pull away from the sides of the pan.
Transfer to a bowl and stir with a wooden spoon 1 minute to cool slightly.
Add 1 egg. The batter will appear loose and shiny.
As you stir, the batter will become dry looking like lightly buttered mashed potatoes.
It is at this point that you will add in the next egg. Repeat until you have incorporated all the eggs.
Scoop teaspoonfuls of batter and push off the spoon with your finger, leaving about 1 inch between the choux. Choux should be about 1 inch high about 1 inch wide.
Using a clean finger dipped in hot water, gently press down on any tips that have formed on the top of choux. You want them to retain their ball shape, but be smoothly curved on top.
Brush tops with egg wash (1 egg lightly beaten with pinch of salt).
Bake the choux in the preheated oven until well-puffed and turning lightly golden in color, about 10 minutes.
Lower the temperature to 350°F(180°C) and continue baking until well-colored and dry, about 20 minutes more. Remove to a rack. With a small sharp paring knife, slice a small slit in the bottom side of each choux to allow steam to escape or the choux may moisten. All to cool on a cooling rack.
Can be stored in a airtight box overnight.
When you are ready to assemble your piece montée, using a plain pastry tip, pierce the bottom of each choux. Fill the choux with pastry cream using either the same tip or a star tip, and place on a paper-lined sheet. Choux can be refrigerated briefly at this point while you make your glaze. (We put equal amounts of vanilla and chocolate pastry cream side by side in the pastry bag so each choux would be filled with a marbled swirl of both flavors.
Chocolate Glaze:
8 oz (200 g) finely chopped chocolate (use the finest quality you can afford as the taste will be quite pronounced; I recommend semi-sweet)
Melt chocolate in microwave or double boiler. Stir at regular intervals to avoid burning. Use the best quality chocolate you can afford. Use immediately.
We dipped only half of the choux in the chocolate because it became matte as it dried and though delicious it gave the choux a very heavy appearance. Next time we will prepare a lighter chocolate glaze.

i love this post, being able to visualize your wedding (ok, and olivier's too - no, not MY olivier), even before i get to see the actual pics (soon !). as far as i am concerned, you had exactly what you needed - and more. bride and groom, in love. a oui and a kiss (even if fumbling), et voila ! ok, and perhaps a piece montee too. oh how i dreamed and dreamed of having a mega-multi-tiered wedding cake, american style. but alas, in france, croquembouche it was. but a dessert buffet to go with ! ;)
i love the images above, especially the one of the wedding party walking in the french countryside - brings me right back to our walk to the town hall for our civil wedding too. thanks for sharing your wedding memories and bringing back my own.

I'm not sure how I feel about weddings - the show of it all today (I'm in my late 20's so every summer for the past five years has been wedding after wedding). My husband and I got married on his lunch break at the county courthouse and we had one guest, my mom, and only because we needed a witness. We did it to ease the visa process for me and told everyone we will have a wedding ceremony soon. That was 2 1/2 years ago and now that our family and friends have stopped asking when we will have our wedding I'm secretly hoping we never do.
That said, I love weddings. I love what they mean, I love the party, I love the food, I love the tradition, and I love all the show. So much that I once made mini croquembouche's for each of my girlfriend's guests. She had 200 guests and they all had to be made that morning. They were a huge hit, but never again! I've gotten smarter. This September I'm doing welcome gifts for the hotel rooms for all 150 guests at my friend's wedding - baby macarons, baby kouign amans, and mini choc chip cookies - all made the day ahead!

Jamie that is so lovely! I went with your suggestion and did chocolate glaze for mine as well. I really enjoyed making it and was also, like your assistant, pleasantly surprised at how easy it all was. Looking at yours makes me want to eat it all over again x

Absolutely gorgeous Jamie... evocatively beautiful post and such a pretty piece montee. Love the bit by bit pictures, stunned that you 'tea spooned' the choux {will do that in future}, and love the idea of marbled cream within! You are a pastry queen too darling girl!

@gastroanthropologist: Adrienne, how I wished you had been around when I got married! We had 12 guests which included his immediate family and a few of his friends I had never met. Walk to city hall, walk home, lunch we had cooked and that was it and it was perfect!

What do you think Apple will announce at the iPad mini event? [Poll]
We've put up our iPad mini event preview, where we went through all the stuff we think Apple may announce tomorrow at their October event. So now it's your turn! What are your predictions?
Since we keep calling it the iPad mini event, we really kind of hope that'll be on the official Keynote list, but what else do you expect to see? Updated iPad 3? A new iMac and Mac mini? What about a 13-inch Retina MacBook Pro? Any chance for a new Mac Pro or Retina MacBook Air? Too soon? To physically impossible?
Any updates on deck for peripherals? Magic Mouse or Magic Trackpad 2? A newer, better keyboard maybe? New Thunderbolt displays with USB 3?
And how about software? iTunes 11 seems almost certain, but could there be more to it than we've seen so far? Could iOS 6.1 make an appearance? What about iOS 6.0.1? And what features would you want to see?
Could there be a new version of iLife and more urgently, iWork for Mac? Aperture, Final Cut Pro, or Logic due for an update?
iBooks 3.0 should get shown off, but will iBooks for Mac? Will any brand new apps debut? Anything exclusive to the iPad mini?
We're less than a day away, this is your last chance to weigh in -- what to do you expect to see at Apple's Oct. 23 event? Vote in the poll up top and then give me your full predictions in the comments below!
Have something to say about this story? Leave a comment! Need help with something else? Ask in our forums!

What do you think Apple will announce at the iPad mini event? [Poll]
I will most likely get the iPad mini for web browsing at home away from my computer and maybe games too.
I just got an macbook air 13" and now I wish I waited for this....ughh.....what can you say, there's always something better around the corner right.
I think the retina macbook air is the one you have to wait for though......

Because of the party hearty nature of Halloween weekend — and the sheer number of bands playing 'ween-themed shows over the next few nights — we're going to venture outside of the music section this week into GO! Magazine's cover story, which features not 20 … not 30 … not 40 … but 50+ Halloween parties, concerts, trick or treats, costume contests, films, readings and more.
If you don't find something spooky to do in these listings, you just aren't looking hard enough. Happy Halloween! Y'all have fun out and be safe out there.

Meh, I don't remember joe Frazier by getting bounced off the mat by foreman or Lennox Lewis for getting crushed by Rahman or McCall. I remember them being hof fighters who got caught by amazing shots or just got outclassed on a given night. He'll, the foreman ko by Ali is replayed repeatedly and I don't think it's embarrassing nor is it foremans legacy as he beat the shit out of everyone else just like belfort has recently.
You say shark I say hey man, Jaws was never my scene and I don't like Star Wars
I guess we just see it differently. I'd hardly call it a dunce cap.
You say shark I say hey man, Jaws was never my scene and I don't like Star Wars
I call it a ko. What do you want here?
He got ko'ed by arguably the goat and it was a highlight reel. Awesome.
Is what vitor did to wandy a dunce cap? Randleman cracking crocop?
No. A dunce cap is representative of public humiliation for stupidity, laziness, or rebelliousness. He hardly fits in any of those spots. He saw a kick and tensed up for it to hit his chest, it came up to the chin as he Leaned in. He got caught. He wasn't clowning. He didn't take a dumb risk. He didn't run in and get suckered.
Any 5 of vitors ko's could have equally been used as covers for games and I would have said the same.
You say shark I say hey man, Jaws was never my scene and I don't like Star Wars
But if your point is that lazy or uneducated people will be happy to jump to conclusions--particularly inaccurate ones--then yes. But it still doesn't make it an embarrassment. It just makes it inaccurate.

Friday, Aug. 31, 2007: A day that will live on in the annals of McFarlane history. On this day, the doors of our flagship retail store, McFarlane, opened wide, admitting a sizeable crowd who had awaited the event with sweaty palms and wildly beating hearts.
The 2,117 square-foot store, located at the Westgate City Center, has close proximity to the University of Phoenix Stadium (new home of the Arizona Cardinals), Jobing.com Arena (home of the Phoenix Coyotes), and a multitude of other Westgate stores and restaurants makes it a certifiable shopping destination.
Todd was on hand to greet the first customers, and even rang up the first transaction himself. The first official sale went to Joe Stephens of Tucson, who hit the road at 2AM to make sure he would be among the first in line. It paid off - he picked up a 2007 Super Bowl exclusive Jason Taylor and a Roger Staubach Legends figure.
As he chatted with him, Todd picked up a Sharpie and drew Spawn on Joe's shopping bag. There are definitely benefits to being the early bird!
One of the many great things about the McFarlane Glendale store is the current availability of some classic action figure lines that haven't been on store shelves recently, including Wallace and Gromit: The Curse of the Were-rabbit, Ozzy Osbourne, The Beatles Yellow Submarine, Napoleon Dynamite, Tim Burton's Corpse Bride, SPAWN Reborn, SPAWN Series 1 and SPAWN The Movie!
In addition to the extensive local newspaper coverage, the store opening has also generated a number of on-site television interviews with Todd, including local news stations FOX 10 and 3TV.
If you're in the area or planning a trip to Arizona, you owe it to yourself to visit McFarlane!

Betty Crocker sent me a prize package give away which included Create-A-Bug Fruit Flavor Shapes, Fruit Roll-Ups, Fruit By The Foot, a frisbee, pic up sticks and a light up yo-yo. I have to admit I have turned away other offers for "fruit" snacks because they haven't been organic, but I cut Betty Crocker some slack--I owe them one for creating mainstream gluten free baking mixes.
Anyway, my kids were pretty psyched, because they haven't seen that kind of junk food in our house since last Halloween. I have to say, it is nice to have a little junk food every now and then so no one feels like it is actually off limits or forbidden. I try to be under the radar about unhealthy food--I just don't buy it. So, here is my take on these Betty Crocker "Fruit" snacks...
-It is really helpful to have mainstream snacks that are labeled gluten free.
-These snacks contain pears (not apples.) Pears are the least allergic fruit there is, while apples contain salicylates which some people are very sensitive to. Most "fruit" snacks contain apples. If your child reacts to other dried "fruit" snacks, they might do better with these Betty Crocker "fruit" snacks. If they react to these as well, it might be the dye or the corn syrup.
-The Fruit Roll ups are only 50 calories and 7 grams of sugar, which means it's not a ridiculous amount of corn syrup and sugar. Some kids are sensitive to the amount of sugar in a snack and most other brands contain more sugar.
-My kids loved them and I think I could have gotten them to do anything for a Fruit Roll Up!
-They are a mainstream product that friends and family might have in their house or find in the regular grocery store.
-They turned my daughters tongue bright blue, which was a little scary. Ideally, I would like NO dye, but could they scale back on the dye so her tongue wasn't quite so blue? See my post on Lose the Dye for more info.
- They contain cottonseed oil--which is a "byproduct of an industry that has a surplus of seeds and it is one of the most pro-inflammatory oils."
-They aren't organic, so they might contain up to 28 pesticides that are found on pears according to What's On My Food.
-Almost anything could be in "Natural and Artificial Flavors"
I was thrilled that everyone is healthy enough now that they don't get thrown off by a little junk food. In addition, my kids are enjoying the light up yo-you (even though it is plastic.) I would like to request that Betty Crocker consider taking the dye out of their fruit roll ups. Food companies took the dye out of many drinks and they are now clear. They took the dye out of gum. Why not consider taking the dye out of these "fruit" snacks at some point? We just don't need bright blue food. I asked Betty Crocker which of the snacks had the least dye. They told me to check the packaging as formulas change. I am guessing from my kids mouth that the fruit gushers have the least dye and the fruit roll ups have the most dye. Hopefully Betty Crocker will consider taking the dyes out of products marketed to children, as they have in England where "Food manufacturers, including Mars and McDonald's, have agreed to replace artificial dyes with natural alternatives, but only in their UK products." 1
If you want your own "Simple Joys" prize package from Betty Crocker, leave a comment with your email by December 1st (or leave a comment AND send your email to my email separately by clicking on the @gmail.com on the right.) You can get an extra entry by blogging or tweeting this and leaving a link to your post/tweet in your comment.

CRESTVIEW — In time, Crestview High School girls basketball Coach Kathy Combest hopes her young Bulldog team will look a lot like Pensacola High's girls.
The Tigers aren't very big, but they are athletic and quick. And they use that athleticism to pressure teams into submission defensively.
Pensacola used that pressure defense and athleticism to beat Crestview 66-53 Thursday night, snapping the Bulldogs' 11-game winning streak.
"That's a good team," Combest said. "We had to get used to them pushing the ball, and I don't think any team we are going to meet is that fast."
In the early going, the Bulldogs battled the Tigers as scores by Jasmine Middleton, KK White and Arianna Simms propelled Crestview to an early 10-2 lead.
As the Bulldogs continued to exploit the Tiger defense, Pensacola surprised Combest by pulling out of the full-court press.
Racine Frank led a Tiger charge as Pensacola closed to within a basket of the Bulldogs with the score 10-8 with 4:06 left in the first quarter.
Shamina Hunter tied the game with a basket off a steal with 3:49 left in the first quarter capping an 8-0 PHS run.
White put the Bulldogs back on top with 3:36 left in the first period.
Crestview led 16-13 at the start of the second quarter, but the Tigers opened the period with an 11-point run, taking a lead they wouldn't relinquish.
Pensacola led 24-16 with 5:04 left in the half. Crestview responded with scores from Tiara Payne, White and Middleton to cut the Tiger lead to three points with 3:18 left in the half which was as close as the Bulldogs would get the rest of the way.
Pensacola led 33-27 at the half and stretched the lead to 55-42 at the end of the third quarter as the Tigers coasted to the win.
Frank led Pensacola in scoring with 20 points. Hunter had 16 and Njeri Nelms scored 12.
White topped Crestview with 18 points. Jensis Coleman scored 11 points, all in the third quarter and Simms scored 10 points.
Crestview returns to action at 5:30 p.m. on Thursday against Niceville in the semifinal round of the District 1-7A tournament at Fort Walton Beach.

- Chemokine receptor-5Delta32 mutation is no risk factor for ischemic-type biliary lesion in liver transplantation (2009)
- It has been shown that certain chemokine receptor polymorphisms may correspond to certain complications after organ transplantation. Ischemic-type biliary lesion (ITBL) encounters for major morbidity and mortality in liver transplant recipients. So far, the exact cause for ITBL remains unclear. Certain risk factors for the development of ITBL like donor age and cold ischemic time are well described. In a previous study, a 32-nucleotide deletion of the chemokine receptor-5Delta32 (CCR-5Delta32) was strongly associated with the incidence of ITBL in adult liver transplantation. This study re-evaluates the association of CCR-5Delta32 gene polymorphism and the incidence of ITBL. 169 patients were included into this retrospective analysis. 134 patients were homozygous for wild-type CCR-5, 33 patients heterozygous, and 2 patients were homozygous for CCR-5Delta32 mutation. There were no major differences in donor or recipients demographics. No association was found between CCR-5Delta32 mutation and the development of ITBL.We conclude that CCR-5Delta32 is no risk factor for the development of ITBL in our patient cohort.
- Contrasting disease patterns in seropositive and seronegative neuromyelitis optica : a multicentre study of 175 patients (2012)
- Background: The diagnostic and pathophysiological relevance of antibodies to aquaporin-4 (AQP4-Ab) in patients with neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorders (NMOSD) has been intensively studied. However, little is known so far about the clinical impact of AQP4-Ab seropositivity. Objective: To analyse systematically the clinical and paraclinical features associated with NMO spectrum disorders in Caucasians in a stratified fashion according to the patients' AQP4-Ab serostatus. Methods: Retrospective study of 175 Caucasian patients (AQP4-Ab positive in 78.3%). Results: Seropositive patients were found to be predominantly female (p < 0.0003), to more often have signs of co-existing autoimmunity (p < 0.00001), and to experience more severe clinical attacks. A visual acuity of ≤ 0.1 during acute optic neuritis (ON) attacks was more frequent among seropositives (p < 0.002). Similarly, motor symptoms were more common in seropositive patients, the median Medical Research Council scale (MRC) grade worse, and MRC grades ≤ 2 more frequent, in particular if patients met the 2006 revised criteria (p < 0.005, p < 0.006 and p < 0.01, respectively), the total spinal cord lesion load was higher (p < 0.006), and lesions ≥ 6 vertebral segments as well as entire spinal cord involvement more frequent (p < 0.003 and p < 0.043). By contrast, bilateral ON at onset was more common in seronegatives (p < 0.007), as was simultaneous ON and myelitis (p < 0.001); accordingly, the time to diagnosis of NMO was shorter in the seronegative group (p < 0.029). The course of disease was more often monophasic in seronegatives (p < 0.008). Seropositives and seronegatives did not differ significantly with regard to age at onset, time to relapse, annualized relapse rates, outcome from relapse (complete, partial, no recovery), annualized EDSS increase, mortality rate, supratentorial brain lesions, brainstem lesions, history of carcinoma, frequency of preceding infections, oligoclonal bands, or CSF pleocytosis. Both the time to relapse and the time to diagnosis was longer if the disease started with ON (p < 0.002 and p < 0.013). Motor symptoms or tetraparesis at first myelitis and > 1 myelitis attacks in the first year were identified as possible predictors of a worse outcome. Conclusion: This study provides an overview of the clinical and paraclinical features of NMOSD in Caucasians and demonstrates a number of distinct disease characteristics in seropositive and seronegative patients
- A prospective randomised, open-labeled, trial comparing sirolimus-containing versus mTOR-inhibitor-free immunosuppression in patients undergoing liver transplantation for hepatocellular carcinoma (2010)
- Background: The potential anti-cancer effects of mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) inhibitors are being intensively studied. To date, however, few randomised clinical trials (RCT) have been performed to demonstrate anti-neoplastic effects in the pure oncology setting, and at present, no oncology endpoint-directed RCT has been reported in the high-malignancy risk population of immunosuppressed transplant recipients. Interestingly, since mTOR inhibitors have both immunosuppressive and anti-cancer effects, they have the potential to simultaneously protect against immunologic graft loss and tumour development. Therefore, we designed a prospective RCT to determine if the mTOR inhibitor sirolimus can improve hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC)-free patient survival in liver transplant (LT) recipients with a pre-transplant diagnosis of HCC. Methods: The study is an open-labelled, randomised, RCT comparing sirolimus-containing versus mTOR-inhibitor-free immunosuppression in patients undergoing LT for HCC. Patients with a histologically confirmed HCC diagnosis are randomised into 2 groups within 4-6 weeks after LT; one arm is maintained on a centre-specific mTOR-inhibitor-free immunosuppressive protocol and the second arm is maintained on a centre-specific mTOR-inhibitor-free immunosuppressive protocol for the first 4-6 weeks, at which time sirolimus is initiated. A 3-year recruitment phase is planned with a 5-year follow-up, testing HCC-free survival as the primary endpoint. Our hypothesis is that sirolimus use in the second arm of the study will improve HCC-free survival. The study is a non-commercial investigator-initiated trial (IIT) sponsored by the University Hospital Regensburg and is endorsed by the European Liver and Intestine Transplant Association; 13 countries within Europe, Canada and Australia are participating. Discussion: If our hypothesis is correct that mTOR inhibition can reduce HCC tumour growth while simultaneously providing immunosuppression to protect the liver allograft from rejection, patients should experience less post-transplant problems with HCC recurrence, and therefore could expect a longer and better quality of life. A positive outcome will likely change the standard of posttransplant immunosuppressive care for LT patients with HCC. (trial registered at www.clinicaltrials.gov: NCT00355862) (EudraCT Number: 2005-005362-36)
