- I think I may have a learning disability. How would I get evaluated to find out?
Q. When should I notify Susquehanna about my disability?
Ideally, you should contact the Disability Services Office (ODS) immediately after placing your deposit as an incoming student, or in the first two weeks of the semester if you are a returning student. This will allow the Coordinator to contact you and offer assistance in various areas of orientation at Susquehanna. Please keep in mind that if requests for accommodations are not made within a timely manner, faculty and staff may not be able to fully provide an accommodation and/or are not obligated to give accommodations.
Q. Who do I need to contact regarding my disability?
Requests for accommodations are given to the Coordinator of Disability services. This office is located on the lower-level of the Blough-Weis Library. You may contact the coordinator, Phillip Gehman, via e-mail at email@example.com, or by phone at 570-372-4340. Documentation may also be sent by fax to 570-372-2729. All services are confidential.
Q. What is the process for obtaining accommodations at Susquehanna University?
To obtain classroom, housing, or dining accommodations at Susquehanna University, you must submit a Request for Accommodations form to the Office of Disability Services (ODS) along with documentation from a qualified professional, preferably within the first two weeks of the semester. Once the documentation is reviewed, the CDS will meet with talk with you to determine appropriate accommodations. A "Letter of Agreement for Accommodations" will be issued for each class in which you require accommodations. How to Obtain Classroom Accommodations.
Q. How do I notify my professors about my accommodations?
After receiving a "Letter of Agreement and Accommodations" from the coordinator, you will need to contact each instructor to arrange a convenient time to discuss your accommodations. Students are discouraged from handing their professors the letters after class with the expectation that the accommodation will be arranged without discussion. Upon agreement, you and the instructor will sign the letter. The letter is then returned to the Coordinator at which time a copy will be given to the student. The original copy will remain on file in the Office of Disability Services.
Q. What accommodations will I receive?
Accommodations are determined on a case-by-case basis depending upon the supporting evidence and recommendations given in the documentation. In all cases, accommodations may not be given unless there is proof that the disability/condition "significantly limits a major life function." There must be a direct connection between the disability/condition and the accommodations being requested. If the documentation is incomplete or does not support your requests, further information may be needed. Accommodations will not be given if they alter the essential fundamental elements of a course. Some frequently used accommodations are: extended testing time, having test questions read aloud or taped, taking tests in a noise reduced environment, taking essay tests on a computer, tape recording lectures, having a note taker or a scribe and preferential seating.
Q. If I received a 504 accommodation or had an IEP in high school, will the same accommodations be provided?
Not necessarily. Although information contained in an IEP or a 504 Service Agreement may be helpful, you may not qualify for the same accommodations you had in high school, even if your situation is "otherwise unchanged." The laws governing accommodations between high school and college are different. Therefore, what qualified you for accommodations in high school may not qualify you in college. Changes in Services from High School to University.
Q. May I appeal the decision that the Coordinator of Disability Services has made regarding my accommodations?
Yes. The coordinator will do everything available to provide you appropriate access to accommodations, however, students who disagree with an accommodations decision may appeal the decision by following the appeals process.
Q. How will services for accommodating my disability change when I attend college?
There are many basic differences between the laws governing accommodations in high school and college. The major shift takes place in the area of independence. In college, you are expected to rely on your own self-advocacy skills to communicate with faculty and obtain accommodations. Faculty and staff expect to work with you, rather than your parents. In addition, the laws governing confidentiality make communication between faculty and parents more restrictive. Changes in Services from High School to University.
Q. Who do I contact if I need special housing accommodations?
You first start by completing a Request for Accommodations form from the Office of Disability Services (ODS). You will then be asked to complete a Housing Accommodations form. As with other accommodations, documentation must be provided from a qualified professional stating the reasons and recommendations for the accommodations. Once the forms and documentation has been reviewed you will be contacted by the Coordinator to discuss the request. If approved, you will then meet with the Assistant Director for Operations to determine the best housing options available. Dining arrangements will be approved by the CDS and students are responsible for making arrangements with the food service personnel.
Q. Who should I contact if I need any special adaptive technology?
If you're in need of special adaptive technology due to a disability, you will need to make this request to the coordinator who will work with you to obtain the adaptive or assistive technology as soon as possible. If you are requesting books on tape/ e-texts, or special software such as speech to text or text to speech, it is important to contact the coordinator as early as possible. Ideally, new incoming students should make their requests as soon as their schedule is finalized for the upcoming semester. How to Obtain Accommodations.
Q. If I had a foreign language waiver in high school will I get it at Susquehanna?
No academic requirements at Susquehanna University will be waived. However, students may be permitted to substitute courses, for example, in a foreign language. These cases are rare, however, and must be fully supported by qualified professionals in appropriate documentation. Please see Course Substitution Policy.
Q. I think I may have a learning disability. How would I get evaluated to find out?
The Office of Disability Services (ODS) cannot provide testing to screen for a disability; however, there are alternatives that should be considered. ODS has no formal relationship with these outside agencies. Therefore, the scheduling of appointments, the fee structure, etc. are to be determined between the client and the agency.
Private Psychologist: This is often the quickest option. A resource to aid in locating private testing services is the yellow pages. Information can be found under "psychologist." This type of testing may be covered under some insurance policies, so be sure to examine specific policies or contact your insurance agent and/or your medical doctor for a referral.
Vocational rehabilitation agencies are resources in each state that serve persons with disabilities. If you suspect you have a disability, check with a VR office for an assessment of your eligibility for services. Their evaluations of your eligibility for client services are free, but scheduling may be difficult.
Things to keep in mind when deciding on a testing option:
- Will your insurance (or your parents' insurance) help out with fees?
- Have you compared costs of testing in the area?
- Have you checked to see if you have any previous record of a disability on file?
- Do you need a medical referral for testing?
- Are adult measures being used in your evaluation?
- Did you bring Susquehanna's documentation guidelines with you to the testing center?

Posts from Monday, Feb. 16
More honors, more hoops
Posted at 7:21 p.m. ET – Eric Lindsey, UK Media Relations
No surprise here – junior Jodie Meeks has earned another Player of the Week honors. This time it comes from CollegeHoops.net, which named Meeks Player of the Week for the second time this season. The guard from Norcross, Ga., is the only player to achieve that feat this season.
Before leaving for Vanderbilt, UK Coach Billy Gillispie spoke to the media for a brief news conference Monday afternoon. Here are a few highlights from what was said:
UK fan base stands alone
Posted at 6:40p.m. ET - Eric Lindsey, UK Media Relations
The UK men's soccer team ranked in the top 25 in average attendance for the 2008 soccer season, according to NCAA statistics.
The Wildcats came in at No. 25 overall, averaging 1,001 fans in their nine home games this season.
With the Wildcats' top-25 attendance ranking, UK becomes the only school in the nation to rank in the top 25 in attendance in men's basketball, women's basketball, football, baseball and men's soccer for the 2008 athletic year.
Men's basketball notes: Meeks named SEC Player of the Week; Patterson update
Posted at 12:02 p.m. ET - Eric Lindsey, UK Media Relations
Kentucky guard Jodie Meeks has been named the Southeastern Conference Player of the Week for his performances last week.
Meeks, a junior from Norcross, Ga., led UK to a pair of victories over Florida and Arkansas last week. In the victory over Florida on Tuesday night, Meeks hit the game-winning 3-pointer in the final seconds of the game to snap the Wildcats' three-game losing streak.
Meeks followed the thrilling Tuesday night game with a Bud Walton Arena record 45 points on 17-of-24 shooting, including 7-of-12 from behind the 3-point line, in the win at Arkansas on Saturday. In all, Meeks averaged 34.0 points and 6.0 rebounds in the two games.
During his record-breaking game Saturday, Meeks became the 56th UK player to reach the 1,000-point milestone, finishing the week with 1,037 points.
Also, UK Coach Billy Gillispie was just on the SEC Coaches Teleconference and had a small update on sophomore Patrick Patterson. Gillispie said Patterson is still day-to-day with a sprained right ankle, but added that the injury is actually allowing time for Patterson to rest his injured finger.
"I saw an injury report this morning and that was an indication (that his finger is getting better)," Gillispie said. "You don't want to have him out because we definitely need him - he's so central to everything that we do - but his finger wasn't getting any better. Our trainer put on the report that this time has been very, very helpful for his finger, and he was talking about some differences and how he's going to be able to treat it to where it's not nearly as cumbersome of a bandage as he's been putting on it in the past, so maybe it's going to be a postive in that respect."
2009 Kentucky Outfield Preview
A look at the 2009 roster shows that the Wildcats will be without two first-team All-Americans - Cowgill and Sawyer Carroll - and a bevy of veteran pitchers. However, UK, fresh off a season that saw the Wildcats lead the conference in ERA and rank second in fielding percentage, will be anchored by a potentially dominant pitching staff and an impressive defensive club.
In the outfield, the two All-American's are gone, with Keenan Wiley the lone returning starter for the Wildcats. The center fielder has been a fixture in the lineup since cracking the rotation as a redshirt freshman. Considered one of the best defensive outfielders in the SEC, Wiley has hit .327 in both of his first two seasons, primarily hitting first or ninth in the order. A speedy left-handed hitter, Wiley totaled 13 doubles, two triples, two homers and 38 RBI last year, before earning Cape Cod League All-Star honors. Wiley also hit a walk-off home run against Louisville last year, sending a ball clear over the high right field wall at Cliff Hagan Stadium.
"Keenan is going to be as good as anybody's center fielder, he is as good a defensive center fielder as there is," Henderson said.
Competing for the corner outfield posts will be a host of players, with returners Troy Frazier and Bryan Rose expected to provide some experience. Frazier functioned as UK's extra right-handed bat in 2008 and hit .256 with five doubles, three homers and 26 RBI, while playing excellent defense, typically in right field. Last year, Frazier played in 46 games for the Wildcats starting 30. Frazier also showed he has a big bat hitting a home run in the NCAA Regional win at Michigan.
Rose had some breakout moments as a redshirt freshman in 2008, including a two-homer game at state rival Louisville, a home run in his first collegiate at bat, and a 4-for-5 outing against SEC Tournament Champion LSU which included a homer and a double. Rose played in 46 games for Kentucky starting 20 times. He hit .290 on the season with seven doubles, two triples, four homers and 21 RBI.
"The other spots at left and right are open and at this point, we are really pleased that we have some good candidates," Henderson said. "Troy Frazier, Bryan Rose and Brock Wright have the experience, but Chad Wright, Cory Farris and Navarro Hall are all going to push for playing time."
Freshmen Navarro Hall, Cory Farris and Chad Wright will all have an immediate impact, with each bringing different skill sets to the outfield. Hall, an athletic 6-foot-1, left-handed hitter, is considered to be a defensive weapon in center field after redshirting in 2008.
Farris, a high school All-American from Florence, Ky., is a power threat as well as a good athlete. As a senior, Farris hit .469 with 42 runs, nine doubles, nine homers and 33 RBI. Chad Wright, brother of junior outfielder Brock Wright, had a stellar fall, showcasing an ability to step in and have an immediate impact. As a senior in high school, the two-time first team All-State selection hit .418 with 51 runs, 15 doubles, five homers and 34 RBI.
Outfield depth could also come from several other players on UK's roster. Gunner Glad, the versatile six-foot junior could compete for one of the corner-outfield spots. Glad was one of the top junior college recruits in the country, setting school records for home runs in a career and season during his time in two years.
"The positives of having such good competition for starting jobs are obvious - you have to show up every day and it creates a sense of urgency within the group," Henderson said. "We have several jobs open and that creates a very positive, healthy environment."

Product description
Our understanding of Late Antiquity can be transformed by the non-dogmatic application of social theory to more traditional evidence when studying major social conflicts in the Eastern Roman Empire, not least under the Emperor Justinian (527-565). Social Conflict in the Age of Justinian explores a range of often violent conflicts across the whole empire - on the land, in religion, and in sport - during this pivotal period in European history. Drawing on both sociology and social psychology, and on his experience as a senior British Civil Servant dealing with violent political conflicts in Northern Ireland and elsewhere, Bell shows that such conflicts were a basic feature of the overwhelmingly agricultural political economy of the empire. These conflicts were reflected at the ideological level and lead to intense persecution of intellectuals and Pagans as an ever more robust Christian ideological hegemony was established. In challenging the loyalties of all social classes, they also increased the vulnerability of an emperor and his allies. The need to legitimise the emperor, through an increasingly sacralised monarchy, and to build a loyal constituency, consequently remained a top priority for Justinian, even if his repeated efforts to unite the churches failed.

In the poem " To his Coy Mistress" where does the tone change?
what kind of tone is the speaker using
1 Answer | Add Yours
This poem is a witty example of carpe diem style--seize the day for tomorrow will be a different story!
The poem begins with the speaker praising the lady's beauty,and he tells her how much time he would spend ravishing her every inch, giving the most time to her heart since it is the most beautiful part of her. If time were unlimited, he would spend every bit of it wooing her.
The tone changes, however when he says, "BUT at my back I always hear Time's wingèd chariot hurrying near;" which tells us that he does not believe that have all the time in the world. He cannot admire her as she deserves to be loved since time is their enemy. The remainder of the poem gives us reasons why she should jump at the chance to love and be loved NOW while they are still young and beautiful.

National and International Issues
Food Production
The year 2002 saw mounting concerns over global food supplies as harvests declined in many areas of the world. North America, Africa, and Australia experienced drought that significantly reduced crop output. Also contributing to the production decline in Africa was continued political instability. Total grain output in the United States fell 25,900,000 metric tons, or 8%, owing to drought. Output in other countries fell 52,070,000 metric tons, or 2.6%. With global consumption nearly constant, ending stocks fell owing to the lower output. World output of oilseeds fell slightly, less than 1%, because the reduction in U.S. output was offset by increases elsewhere. World meat output rose 2.9% in 2002. The tightening global supply-and-demand balance caused strong price increases for major agricultural commodities.
Food Aid
By the early summer of 2002, concerns about the possibility of famine for over 14 million people in southern Africa had emerged. The countries most seriously affected included Zambia, Zimbabwe, Malawi, Lesotho, Swaziland, and Mozambique. By fall 2002 roughly nine million more people in Ethiopia and Eritrea were forecast to need food assistance from external sources. While drought was a factor in all countries, other forces contributed. In much of the region, a shortage of land had led to overuse and degradation of the soil. While fertilizer could compensate for the loss in soil productivity, most small farmers could not afford to buy fertilizer at commercial prices, and international donors had reduced their donations of fertilizer in recent years. Political issues often magnified the food crisis. In Zimbabwe land reform directed at large commercial white-owned farms contributed to the decline in production, while restricted access to food by members of the political opposition worsened the food crisis. Malawi's government was accused of having sold its national emergency grain stock prior to the crisis. Poor transportation and marketing systems compounded the effects of drought by slowing delivery of food aid and, over the longer run, critical agricultural inputs such as seed and fertilizers.
Food assistance was also slowed in southern Africa by concerns that American grain offered for food relief contained genetically modified (GM) corn (maize). Thousands of tons of aid were initially rejected or locked away from the starving population. Recipient countries were further concerned that GM corn would be retained for seed and thereby introduce manipulated genes into future crops, a situation that would hamper exports to Europe, where there was resistance to importing GM corn. Eventually, Mozambique and Zimbabwe accepted offers by donor countries to grind the corn before distribution so that it could not be used as seed, but Zambia continued to resist the aid on the grounds that GM corn jeopardized the safety of the population. In Angola continued internal strife threatened an estimated half million people as refugees were forced to abandon their fields.
Other countries faced famine as well. North Korea continued to require food assistance despite domestic reforms to raise prices and salaries sharply. The World Food Programme had been feeding six million people in North Korea and generally enjoyed access to most regions of the country. Especially toward the end of the year, concerns over North Korea's nuclear-weapons-development program increased the reluctance of donor agencies to provide food aid. U.S. pursuit of its "war on terrorism" on the territory of Afghanistan affected the return to normalcy of agricultural production, so the country still had to rely on food assistance from the international community.
International Organizations
The World Food Summit organized by the United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) was held in Rome, June 10-13, with the purpose of renewing the world's commitment to reduce hunger. Delegates approved a measure reaffirming a 1996 resolution to cut the number of hungry in the world by more than half by 2015. Delegates from less-developed countries were critical of subsidization of farmers in developed countries for depressing world commodity prices. Developed countries also came under fire for maintaining import barriers on agricultural products that denied farmers in less-developed areas access to richer markets. Calls were made to increase agricultural aid from the existing $11 billion to $24 billion. Another criticism that was voiced was that most industrialized countries had not sent top leaders to the summit (only Spain and host Italy were represented by their prime ministers) and did not seem to take the meeting very seriously.
Multilateral trade liberalization negotiations launched in Doha, Qatar, in November 2001 continued through 2002, and some progress was registered. In August the U.S. Congress granted Pres. George W. Bush trade promotion authority (TPA). The president was again given the go-ahead to negotiate trade deals subject to a "yes-no" vote in Congress. The president's TPA had expired eight years earlier, and the U.S. negotiating position was weakened because other states were reluctant to negotiate with the president when Congress could subsequently change any agreement he approved.
During 2002 several countries presented their initial negotiating positions for the Doha Round. The U.S. proposed cutting tariffs on agricultural products to an average of 15%, expanding market access commitments by 20%, and reducing domestic farm subsidies to no more than 5% of the value of production. The U.S. also sought elimination of export subsidies. The Cairns Group, a coalition of 17 agricultural exporting countries with little governmental farm support, introduced a proposal that asked for larger tariff cuts and greater market access plus elimination of trade-distorting domestic support. Proposals by less-developed countries focused on more access to developed-country markets. The Japanese proposal called for less-ambitious changes from existing WTO trade rules. The European Union (EU) did not formally make a proposal in 2002 but was judged likely to oppose ending export subsidies and domestic support in its position statement in 2003. The EU sought to restrict imports of GM foods until they were shown to be safe for consumers and the environment. The exporting states, notably the U.S., opposed restrictions on the movement of GM foods.

Amber Rose Spotted Having Bonding Time With 11-Month Old 'Bash'
Look at those cute chubby cheeks!
It was all about mommy bonding for Amber Rose yesterday as she enjoyed a nice quiet day alone with her 11-month-old son Sebastian Taylor aka "Bash." The model-turned-full time mom was spotted at a playground in Malibu holding on tight to the cheerful toddler who is growing twice as fast as most kids.
Earlier this year, when Bash was just four months, Amber told MTV News that he was wearing clothes that fit a 6-month-old, and two months later, she revealed on Instagram:
My Munchie is only 7 months old and wears 12-24 months clothes! He's such a big boy…. He was born big.
With parents who are 6'4, and 5'9, I wouldn't be surprised if the couple have a future athlete on their hands.

Sigrid's Carrot Cake
I'm so sorry I've been away so long, my friends. I have 497 reasons I could give you, not the least of which is the fact that I'm getting ready to launch a new version of my regular site, thepioneerwoman.com, and that has taken over my life…and the fact that I've been cooking so much lately, I haven't even had time to edit photos and post recipes here…oh, and then there's the matter of the four children I decided to bring forth from my loins. Sometimes they need attention. And clean clothes. And food.
But I'm back now, and so pleased to share with you yet another winning recipe from the innards of my mother's recipe binders that she—ahem—"accidentally left at my house several weeks ago" and that I—ahem—keep "forgetting" to mail back to her. And I believe that next week, I shall also forget to mail them to her, and then the week after that as well. Because as long as I keep finding recipes like this one, I won't ever be able to part with the suckers. Sorry, Mom. But I want them.
Here's the recipe we'll be making today.
This is the original recipe card for Sigrid's Carrot Cake, written by hand by Sigrid herself many, many years ago.
Sigrid was one of my mom's dearest friends back in the Old Country, and Sigrid's daughter happened to be close friends with my punk-ass sister, Betsy. As such, every holiday or family event was occasion enough for Sigrid to bring one of her delicious, delectable carrot cakes to our house. And let me tell you, this practice went on for a period of approximately 25 years and I remember every single bite of every single carrot cake she gifted us. It's such a basic, wholesome recipe, each bite you take makes you feel like you're doing something good for yourself. Okay, so the thing is loaded with sugar. But it also contains 2 cups of vibrant, vitamin-rich carrots, so how bad can it be?
The best thing about Sigrid bringing her carrot cakes to our house was that my punk-ass siter, Betsy, is deathly allergic to tree nuts. And since the carrot cake icing contains chopped pecans, that meant more for me. And make no mistake, I ate my fair share. I also ate Betsy's fair share, and probably some of my brother, Mike's, too. And then I'd start in on my mother's fair share because, I reasoned, her hips didn't need it.
Karma's a real bummer, because now MY hips don't need it. But that didn't stop me from making—and devouring—this carrot cake a couple of days ago. But only because I wanted to honor Sigrid.
Wanna make it with me? Let's go!
The Cast of Characters (cake only): Sugar, Vegetable Oil, Eggs, Flour, Salt, Baking Soda, Baking Powder, Cinnamon, and Grated Carrots. It's all very natural and wholesome and innocent. Just like me.
Start by blending 2 cups sugar, 1 cup oil, and 4 eggs in a mixer.
Now, if you follow Sigrid's instructions, you'll sift together 2 cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking soda, 1 teaspoon baking powder, 1 teaspoon of cinnamon, and 1/2 teaspoon of salt. Then you'll add the dry mixture into the bowl. But I didn't feel like sifting that day, and I don't like doing things I don't feel like doing. So I just added the dry ingredients straight into the mixing bowl.
Please don't be like me. And please don't tell Sigrid.
After you add the dry ingredients, blend mixture together until combined.
Now comes the good part. Add in 2 cups grated carrots. Mmm…can you believe this color exists in nature? I love orange.
Mix it together, just LOOK what the carrots did to the batter.
Now you can grab whatever pan you want to use. Sigrid always used a Bundt or tube pan, which made it special. But I just love sheet cakes, partly because they're just easy to slice and grab…and partly because I have no fewer than nineteen sheet cake pans lying around my kitchen and I feel the need to justify my compulsion to buy new sheet cake pans despite the fact that I don't need any more sheet cake pans. I don't think I've ever confessed that problem until just this moment. I feel cleansed.
Oh, and you can also do cupcakes. Carrot cupcakes. How cute.
Sigrid says to grease and flour the pan, and to me that means: Grab the Baker's Joy. It's this baker's joy.
Pour it into the pan and smooth out the surface. And I realize this batter might look equal parts delicious and unappetizing. But just you wait, Henry Higgins.
Name that Broadway musical.
Now! Pop the pan into a preheated 350 degree oven for anywhere from 25 (sheet cake) to 50 (Bundt cake) minutes. Just give the pan a very gentle shake if you're unsure. If it jiggles, it ain't ready. And while the cake is baking, you have plenty of time to make the icing!
The Cast of Characters: Butter (softened), Cream Cheese (softened), Vanilla, Powdered Sugar, and Pecans.
Place 1 stick of (regular) butter and 1 8-ounce package cream cheese in a bowl.
Mix it together, and try not to pass out from the fat fumes.
Dump in 1 pound of powdered sugar, give or take. Mix that in. Then stick your finger in, pull it out, and lick it. Then say, "Oh my Lord." Then close your eyes and be at peace.
But we're not finished yet! We need to chop 1 cup of pecans. I like to get them pretty fine, as large chunks of pecans ruin my afternoon.
Dump them into the icing, and mix together…
And then, if you're like me, add in 2 teaspoons vanilla extract. If you're like Sigrid, you would have already added this in with the butter and cream cheese.
Again, don't be like me.
Anyway, this is what the icing looks like when you're finished. It's beyond delicious on its own, and you'll be hard pressed not to eat it by the spoonful.
Plop the icing on top of the baked (and COOLED) cake, and smooth it out.
This really is just enough icing to cover a large sheet cake, but if you'd used a 9 x 13 Pyrex dish, there'd be more than enough. If you wanted to do a layer cake, I'd probably suggest doubling the icing recipe to ensure you'll have enough to cover the cake.
Now, the first thing I like to do is cut the cake into pretty little squares, and set the squares on a Fenton milk glass cake stand so I'll feel like Martha.
Then I like to remove the pieces from the Fenton milk glass cake stand and place them into cheap foil pie pans. Then I like to give them all away because the cold, hard truth is that I can't be trusted with this kind of temptation in my house.
But I haven't taken total leave of my senses…
Of course I saved myself a piece.
And of course, I had to go ahead and try it. But only to honor Sigrid, remember.
Sigrid's Carrot Cake, my friends, is moist. It's flavorful. It's basic and wholesome and natural.
And if it's in my house, it's gone in two seconds.
It's perfect for Easter: carroty and exceedingly Springy. Try it this weekend!

I made this for Easter dinner and it was amazing. Thank you Ree
Kristin On Thursday, March 27 at 10:37 pm
WOW. im not a huge fan of carrot cake but i had to give this a shot.. my whole family loved it and it was SOOOOOO easy. I left the nuts out of the frosting cause im a pain like that but it was really realy good.. thankyou so much for all your awesome recipes.

"Just you wait, Henry Higgins. Just you wait!" My Fair Lady!!!!
Dave On Thursday, March 27 at 10:42 pm
Oh my God. That looks so good. Especially when I'm stuck here at work without food for another hour and a half! I love the idea of the pecans in the icing. I make a carrot cake that I put chopped toasted walnuts and crushed pineapple in. Talk about moist! I'm going to try the pecans next time, but like you, I can't be trusted with it in the house. That stuff just gets in your mouth, doesn't it?

Pip On Thursday, March 27 at 11:05 pm
I made this for Easter dinner, SO good! I even pulled a PW and took photos of them on a pretty plate….beside the styrofoam plate we ate off.
Jen On Friday, March 28 at 12:20 am
Can I be particular and say that *technically* it's "Pygmalion"? Do I get extra points?
amber78125 On Friday, March 28 at 12:21 am
Can not wait to try this. Carrot Cake is my absolute favorite. I love cream cheese frosting but my Grandmother used to use an orange juice glaze on her warm carrot cake it was out of this world and a great way to mix it up.
Randi M On Friday, March 28 at 1:16 pm
Ruth On Friday, March 28 at 1:24 pm
Pygmalion is the play by George Bernard Shaw, on which the musical My Fair Lady is based (yay for the English major actually being useful in the real world!).
PW, you have very pretty dishes. I've noticed this before, but never voiced my opinion, and I felt that it was time to. Where did you get those blue plates? I kinda want to steal them. You might want to consider starting to lock your china cabinets!
And the cake, as always, looks extremely tasty. I wish our dorm's oven was more reliable.
Randi M On Friday, March 28 at 1:25 pm
Ree! This was outstanding. I made it, didn't change a thing-it was perfect. My husband has declared never to change it and to make it all the time. ( I admit, I wanted to add crushed pineapple). Everyday, I look forward to your posts while ignoring the kids making them watch mindless cartoons so I can transport myself into your world-just for a few hours. But hey, they benefit from all the yummy recipes you have provided us.
Can you give me some foolproof kids love'em recipes that your kids eat? Or are they perfect and eat everything you make them? They are getting a little better as they get older ( Reese,5 & Hayden 2). Thanks and you are awesome!!
Drenna On Friday, March 28 at 3:51 pm
Made it, loved it! I ate half the cake myself.
jen On Friday, March 28 at 4:53 pm
I made this minus the nuts and by substituting half the oil with applesauce. It was the best carrot cake I've ever made. Most and tasty, non greasy. Yum!
Good Yarns On Friday, March 28 at 9:50 pm
Made 'em for Easter. Perfect. None left.
Dense and rich…and the frosting…ooohhh.
Katrina On Friday, March 28 at 10:26 pm
I have this in the oven as I type, and I am dying to taste it! hehe. Looks amazing…
Though next time I will make sure I have regular carrots and not just baby carrots. My fingers hurt from grating them all! haha.
Carmen On Friday, March 28 at 11:02 pm
omgosh I just grated up some carrots and am going to whip some of these up in a few minutes. Cant wait to try them : D I havent made carrot cake in like FOREVER Carm
Nancy On Saturday, March 29 at 4:20 am
MMmm… yum, carrot cake. Will have to try this.
We had carrot cake for our wedding – carrot and chocolate and guess which one COMPLETELY DISAPPEARED (into guests' mouths, of course)?
froodie On Saturday, March 29 at 3:14 pm
Hi Ree,
Making this recipe again for the third time in a week. This time it's cupcakes for a friend's cd launch. But I'm wondering how many cupcakes this recipe will make?
mosheep/Denise On Saturday, March 29 at 3:31 pm
What happened to all the comments about the carrot cake.
Surely there were more then 19.
The cake was delicious but the icing was out of this world.
I have a recipe exactly like yours only you make it in the food processor. No grating by hand of the carrots.
I left the pecans out of the frosting because I was sharing the cake with my sister and her family who just don't care for nuts.
froodie On Saturday, March 29 at 5:22 pm
Never mind. I used just about 2 tablespoons of batter per cupcake, and i made 36. Isn't it magical how dozen-y it all worked out. granted, I've only 32 left, and I haven't iced them yet
Valerie On Saturday, March 29 at 7:15 pm
Same recipe I've been using for 20+ years, one minor difference — I put the nuts in cake, not the icing. (I made a 3-tiered wedding cake with this recipe long, long ago…)
Gina On Saturday, March 29 at 7:50 pm
Where have you been all my life?!?
Mommaofmany On Sunday, March 30 at 12:34 am
The best carrot cake ever! We had it with our Easter Dinner and everyone, down tot he toddler loved it!
Rachel On Sunday, March 30 at 1:22 am
Oh my god. Made this for Easter and it was FANtastic!! Thanks for the recipe!!
okfarmerswife On Sunday, March 30 at 1:37 am
Ok, I confess. Today I made the Carrot Cake that was featured on the Today show last week because of the rants, raves, and assurances of the "stars" there that it was the best carrot cake in the world. Even when I looked up the recipe on their website this morning, the raves were tremendous in support of it being the best carrot cake recipe. After I cleaned up what ran over the side of the pan in the bottom of my oven and readjusted cooking times because the thing took forever to get done, I realized I should have followed my first hunch and try PW's recipe for the church potluck tomorrow. So, I made a second cake using PW's recipe and it cooked up very nicely thank you, doubled the icing recipe and iced both cakes. Guess which one tastes better? Yup, it's the one made by the woman who actually cooks daily. Good grief, what made me think I could trust a television show recipe over a real cook's recipe?
Michelle On Sunday, March 30 at 1:41 am
Made this into muffins and filled with the cream cheese frosting. Yummmy! You rock, Ree.
Jona On Sunday, March 30 at 4:27 am
I handed this recipe to my 16 year old daughter last week and said "Here's your Easter recipe". She did a great job and it was fabulous. The frosting with the nuts was perfecto!
okfarmerswife On Sunday, March 30 at 3:01 pm
The cake was a hit at potluck today. Had the preacher standing over it telling everyone how terrible it was and had another guy telling me it was just like his aunt used to make and he hadn't eaten any in over 13 years. The raves go on!
ORKMommy On Monday, March 31 at 10:14 am
That cake and a tall glass of ice cold milk…mmmmm…can I go home now and make one!
Judy in Tennessee On Monday, March 31 at 11:08 am
Gir-r-r-rl! You should have your own show on the Food Channel! Either that, or you and Paula Deen need to hook up for a show or two (or forty-eleventy-twelve)!! You are both so hilarious, and your recipes are outrageously good!! Does she know about you?!? (I apologize if I'm out of the loop in suggesting such a thing – I just found your website a couple of weeks ago…so if I'm pouring salt on a wound or a broken, old chicken leg, forgive me.)
danika On Monday, March 31 at 1:43 pm
I made this cake/icing last night for my daughters birthday cake. I cute it and reshaped it into a giraffe. I used chopped up pecans for the giraffes spots. This recipe was soooo yummy and it was totaly devoured by al lthe company! I am making it again tonight (I have left over icing) I don't wan that icing to go to waste:)
Vicki On Monday, March 31 at 2:00 pm
Holy cow was that easy and SOOO good! My first ever carrot cake and it was a huge hit! I will definitely make it again! Thanks PW!
Leah On Monday, March 31 at 4:46 pm
Mmmmmm, I'm going to make cupcake versions!! Also, I'm totally cracking up because my mom's recipe box from 1977 is filled with those same daisy recipe cards!!
Lynn On Monday, March 31 at 5:16 pm
Made this Friday night. Very, very good, although I ran into a problem. It was TOO STICKY!!! I substituted a whole cup of applesauce for the whole cup of oil. I think that was the problem. Next time I'll use half applesauce and half oil. Also, the person earlier who said not to use the pre-shredded carrots at the grocery store? She was dead on. I used them (no food processor or grater and I'm LAZY). They were GROSS. They stayed in their long, square strings and ruined the effect of the cake.
I did come up with a good idea, though! I was making P Dub's cinnamon rolls the night before and had leftover maple/coffee frosting/glaze stuff. Since I was making this as a layer cake, I put about 1/2 a cup of this between the layers. It definitely added to the overall cake.
Oh, and in 2 9 inch pans, it took about 40 minutes in my oven. And there was WAY too much frosting for this poor little layer cake. Oh, and for other newbie bakers, please DON'T frost the cake until it has cooled entirely. *blush*
Great recipe, though, Ree!!! The errors were all mine.
Bethany On Monday, March 31 at 5:17 pm
That was an unbelievably delicious cake!!! Thank you so much for the wonderful recipe. I have never had carrot cake this good before.

Wonderful carrot cake recipe – easy & delish! Huge hit for Easter (actually, it was gone by Saturday night – didn't make it to Sunday lunch!).
Amy Shipp On Tuesday, April 1 at 12:19 pm
Yummy! I can't wait to try these out! I love your blog.
Desiree On Tuesday, April 1 at 9:48 pm
I even emailed you pics tonight of my carrot cake.I forgot to mention not only everybody loved it,my neighbours 28 month old ate 4 pieces in one day,awesome way to get my son to eat veggies otherwise he wont.I might try to make muffins with it next time
Liz On Wednesday, April 2 at 2:52 pm
I made these in cupcake form for Easter and they were a huge hit! The cake by itself is really good but the frosting makes them divine!
Mary On Thursday, April 3 at 2:36 pm
I made cupcakes from this recipe and sent them with my husband to work…They were gone in 15 minutes flat! Thanks for posting such an awesome recipe!
K.Simone On Monday, April 7 at 10:19 am
YES! I made this cake over the weekend and it is great. Not too sweet and a nice light cake color. Pecans are a nice change from walnuts. This cake was very easy to make, stayed suprisingly moist and I did not miss the raisins that are usaully found in a carrot cake. Good job, Pioneer Woman!!!
Becky On Monday, April 7 at 10:50 am
Does the icing freeze well?
Carmen On Monday, April 7 at 8:33 pm
We loved em and here is my pic, I didnt have any nuts
Kim On Monday, April 7 at 8:57 pm
Made two of these last night…one for my office and one for my family…quite possibly one of the best cakes we've tasted. Ever.
Thank you for all the time and effort you've put into your wonderful website and for sharing your incredible recipes!
Natalie Wardel On Wednesday, April 9 at 9:52 pm
Made this in cupcake form for book club, work and some friends and they loved it! It made about 18 cup cakes — but probably could make more because they overflowed from the cups!!
Rachel On Thursday, April 10 at 2:45 pm
I made this for my husband's birthday and brought it to his place of bondage (also known as work). I think I may now be the most favorite office wife-Thanks Pioneer Woman!
Dawn H. On Friday, April 11 at 8:45 am
I made this last night and it turned out wonderful. My girls were asking for it at breakfast:) Reminds me of the carrot cake my grandma always made for my grandpa's birthday. Good memories!!
Jenny in TX On Monday, April 14 at 12:39 pm
PW… My daughter Hannah made this cake this weekend and it was absolutely amazing!!! So moist and creamy. I think I like it better than your Chocolate sheet cake, which is saying a lot since I am a self proclaimed choco-holic! I just wish I could eat only one piece.
Kelley in IN On Monday, April 14 at 1:02 pm
Thanks for your wonderful site and recipes (learning to love to cook again). I'm gonna bring this cake to Mother's Day cookout, sounds like it will be a hit.
Janet On Tuesday, April 15 at 5:29 am
Hey, i tried this recipe, but i separated the egg yolks and whites (beat the whites till fluffy), and it turned out really sticky. Does it have something to do with it?
martina On Thursday, April 17 at 12:00 pm
OK, I just wanted to let you know that the frosting spatula before and after shots are hilarious. I'm going to attempt this recipe over the weekend for "Husband Appreciation Day" (which is Saturday). Wish me luck. I've never made a cake without a mix from a box.
Lisa On Sunday, April 20 at 3:40 pm
Hey yo.
I just wanted to let you know that I made this cake for the school I work at and converted your recipe to serve 480. You can check out my blog and see how it turned out. Thanks a million for your fun ideas.
Oksoimnotperfect On Thursday, April 24 at 9:18 am
I made it today for a non-kitchen-friendly friend of mine – well cupcake versions of it and there are way to many for the two of us to eat so I brought them to work with me …. heh I swear the guy just next to me just fell in *LOVE* with me! lol ok not quite but it made me go have one (I was trying to be good – after knowing what went in them – that didn't work so well)
I had one bite and I was in heaven! Delicious!
PS I licked the spatula – best advice ever! lol YUMMY!
Barbara in Texas On Wednesday, April 30 at 9:45 am

I don't know how you do it all, kiddo. Thanks.

Julie On Friday, May 2 at 7:58 am
I was always a little intimidated by baking from scratch but I made this cake yesterday and my husband LOVES it! Thank you for sharing.
MAYBELLINE On Sunday, May 4 at 5:34 pm
Here's my California twist to the recipe:
Add California raisins and California pecans to the batter along with a splash of vanilla. I didn't add nuts to the frosting because I like it smooth and not to resemble anything healthy. However, I added some California orange juice to the frosting recipe for some kick. I'm not on Arnold's tourist board or anything. I just have a lot of this stuff at my disposal and need to use it or lose it.
Let me know if you're interested in a Lemon creamcheese pound cake recipe (THIS is what satan orders for dessert!).

cecelia On Monday, May 5 at 4:34 pm
I love the recipies and photos, it makes it so doable. And, Sigrid'ssweet recipe card brought back memories. This cake will be made soon as I just inherited two bags of carrots from a wedding shower! And the pecans in the frosting sound fabulous.
CarrieP On Wednesday, May 7 at 2:56 pm
Simply delish…my husband raved and ate and ate and raved…so much for fitting into my summer clothes!

made this today for a friend's birthday- super moist & yummmmy good! Everyone was so impressed that we made this cake from scratch & we got tons of compliments! Thanks to you & Sigrid so much for this fabulous recipe!
Lynette Cruz On Thursday, May 15 at 7:36 pm
I made this carrot cake today, an absolute keepr! So delicious and the frosting is crazy! I could eat that frosting on a red velevet cakle as well…SO good! Thank you Sigrid and Thank you Dee for sharing,Love your blog!

DUH!!! I called you dee! HAHAHA, Sorry Ree!
Jill On Tuesday, May 20 at 7:35 pm
This is amazing. I have made it thrice. It is quite possibly the most exciting cake to make. I'd always thought that carrot cakes were nasty (because the store-boughten ones ARE!) But this made me change my mind. And no one in my family has a fab carrot cake recipe (my mom owns with her chocolate cake and pb frosting) so this is perfect! Of course when I'm asked about it, I have to say i got it from the thepioneerwoman.com's cooking blog, but it's Sigrid's, which makes for odd looks. Oh well. I just wanted to thank you for it! It's wonderful! You should share more recipes from your mom's binders!

Best carrot cake evah!
La Petite Madeleine On Sunday, June 1 at 11:18 pm
Hi there. New to your website. Loved it and thought your remarks were simply hilarious. I really enjoyed it. I have been trying to make a carrot cake (similar to your recipe) in a cathedral bundt pan, but I've been getting very poor results. I get a lot of sticking to the pan walls and the cake simply gets destroyed. I believe this cake might have very little grease and this makes it stick. Do you have any advice as to how to unmold this cake from a detailed bundt pan? Thanks.

Chris On Thursday, July 10 at 4:08 pm
Another huge success! My kids decided just the other day to try carrot cake for the first time and loved it, so today we made your recipe. Of course, it was WAY better than the slices that we bought at the bakery. And my kids think I'm some kind of genius. So thanks!
brianna On Monday, July 21 at 11:53 am
Did i miss the oven temperature? I am pregnant and the deliciousness of the cake could be blinding me, but i think i need to make this for my husbands birthday the weekend… but what temp? i don't need to ruin something this yummy… help me pw!!

Made this today…first carrot cake I've ever made, it's still cooling…..I can't wait to try it!! Thanks for all the great recipes Ree!!
Marythemom On Tuesday, August 12 at 4:31 pm
This was my first attempt at your recipes, and it was delicious! Since my family of 6 is much more sedentary than yours (and I have high cholesterol and could lose a few – ok 50 – pounds), I adapted the recipe.
I used all whole wheat flour, substituted fat-free plain yogurt for all of the oil and butter, and used fat-free cream cheese. I also used Splenda instead of sugar/ powdered sugar. No nuts for one family member, but I added raisins.
The frosting was a little runny because I couldn't wait until the cupcakes were cooled to apply! (Patience is not one of my virtues!).
Someone mentioned applesauce as a substitute for oil, but this usually makes the item heavy and can add a flavor (not a problem in carrot cake, but could be in others). I find fat-free plain yogurt to be a perfect substitute that doesn't effect the texture or flavor!

after testing out my new attachment for my KitchenAid Mixer, shredding my carrots, I was ready to see how the cake would do…it did fairly well…..everyone was in mmmmmmmmmmhhhhhhhsssssssssss …..and no word …..except is there more ……

Thanks PW. : )

They liked it! http://radar.net/see/1940121
I was worried about how big the carrot chunks were, but everyone said it was the best carrot cake they have ever had. Also added nutmeg.

This is a hit at our house. Next time I make it I will try cupcakes. I think this will go over big at the guys at the fire station. Since we live in brush country, I keep them well bribed to rememeber me and my address!

Just made a sheet cake of this for a church barbeque supper. There was just enough batter left over for 12 mini muffins and my son and I polished them off before I could even get the sheet cake out of the oven. Great recipe!
Rico On Thursday, October 23 at 3:01 am
Just loved making this, I loved even more eating it….soon i'll be making it for a friend to place at her cafe…well done keep cooking.
Just Me On Wednesday, November 19 at 9:15 am
I suggest you add the temperature at which this should bake to the printable recipe. I printed it off but had to come back here to look that up.
Off to put it in the oven…
Mommaofmany On Friday, December 12 at 8:25 pm
Like JustMe, I had to return here due to the omission of the temp on the printable. It's a mah-vo-lous cake, though! I've made it a few times now.
Malena schroeder On Friday, December 26 at 2:11 pm
Just wanted to let you know that your carrot cake recipe was the hit of X-mas Eve. I usually made a great x-mas carrot cake, but I saw your recipe and took a risk. It was wonderful. Thank you for your website.
Stacy in SC On Friday, January 2 at 3:29 am
I really messed up by making this cake… Now I have to make it for every family gathering and it's never enough. I made two cakes for Christmas dinner and there were no leftovers, although, I think my mom did eat half the cake by herself, she claims my chihuahua helped her lol I've made it so many times now that I've submitted the recipe permanently into my memory bank.
Thanks so much for taking the time to add your yummy recipes… I spent about 12 hours on your site the other day just reading all your older posts. I'm addicted and so envious!

You can tell Sigrid this is the best carrot cake I've ever tasted! I made it twice in one week and I'll be making it again soon. Thanks so much for posting it.
Jen Clyde On Saturday, February 7 at 1:18 pm
Made it for a work luncheon, and it was a big hit! I made it in a sheet cake, a huge batch, and it was allllllllllllll gone.
Rico On Wednesday, February 18 at 4:55 am
I can definitely see another success, a classic having been brought to the 21st century, with a Pecan Cream Cheese topping delightful, I am truly impressed how good it looks and the photography is great too.
That makes me think, should I make a few classics, or shall I just stick to inventions, like my Blueberry Cottage Cheese Baked Cake. Anyway well done for this post …and thanx for sharing xxx

Dieithryn On Wednesday, March 25 at 6:44 pm
Oh My Dear Gods. The best carrot cake I've ever had, Hubby loved it and it's the first time he's ever tried carrot cake. I also took about half of it into work for a charity function and have been asked for it on a regular basis since. Not bad for my first attempt at baking apart from package mixes Think I will make it again this w/e.

TS causing lag??
Some of our clan members have been having high ping spikes. They have been trying to get things sorted, thinking that it was there end.
Well we think we have found the common denominator... TS!! when connected to TS we are experiencing spikes in our ping. Jumping for the normal in game ping of 30-50 to 300-600 one guy was experiencing a ping spike of 1023!!! if you dropped out of TS the problem goes away, if you rejoin then the problem re-appears.
Has anyone experienced a similar problem, and more to the point has anyone got a fix for it??

Mitt Romney campaigned in Arizona this week ahead of the state's Feb. 28 Republican presidential primary. Polls show Romney way ahead in Arizona.
That's in part because of the state's large Mormon population.
But there is dissent in a place you might not expect.
In Arizona's White Mountains, an isolated spot between two Indian reservations, Mormon pioneer roots run more than a century deep.

Its that time of year when you start getting those important tax documents in the mail - reminding you - filing season's around the corner. Before you get started, consider your options it could save you a lot of money.
Consumer groups say they are zeroing in on H&R Block this year. In fact, they promise to hold protests in front of their offices all across the
country. The reason - groups are trying to warn cash-strapped families to know exactly what they are getting into. If they sign up for any kind of 'tax anticipation loan.
H&R Block and some other tax preparers hook up with banks. They file your taxes electronically, and then they loan you your refund amount minus interest charges and a series of fees. Only, we are told in some cases, those charges and fees can add up to 1/3rd your refund amount.
H&R Block has been the target of class action lawsuits in Illinois and Texas for misrepresentation. The bottom line - getting your refund immediately versus waiting a week or two is expensive.
The National Consumer Law Center says in 2001 - low-income families paid tax preparers and banks close to $2 billion just to get refunds immediately.
If you need help preparing your taxes - you can get it for free at several
locations in Colorado Springs and Pueblo.
Ecumenical Social Ministries offers assistance Monday through Friday from 9 a.m. - 2 p.m. starting Feb. 2.
Seniors can go to the Senior Center on Hancock starting Feb. 2. Just call to make an appointment.
In Pueblo, head to the Pueblo Community College on Orman. They have folks who speak both English and Spanish.

The Gentleman angler
Friebele a welcome fixture on Coastal Bend fishing scene
ROCKPORT — Area hatcheries were brimming with tiny fish larvae after the 1989 freeze that killed countless trout and reds in Coastal Bend bays.
Rearing ponds and tanks where these newly hatched fish usually are allowed to grow to an appropriate release size were beyond capacity. The solution might have seemed desperate, but choices were limited.
Texas Parks & Wildlife biologists decided to release millions of the overflow redfish into the bays before their time. The rest would be grown out properly at the hatchery and released as fingerlings when they were more likely to survive.
But with hatchery staffers working around the clock to restock our depleted bays, who would have time to carefully release these fish that were five days old and about the size of a mosquito larva? Trained volunteers, that's who.
Among the most reliable of those who answered the call was Jim Friebele, whose decision the previous year to become a full time fishing guide probably had him questioning his judgement. And yet that summer there he was at dawn in the parking lot of Rockport's Tackle Town, where biologists distributed clear plastic bags, each filled with about 10,000 redfish, saltwater and oxygen.
Friebele would be working for free, but he believed the payoff would be worthwhile for the community he loved, the family he cared for and for the resource on which his chosen profession depended upon.
Just a few years earlier, he was running a bait-shrimp boat and managing Fleming's Bait Stand, a Pepto-pink painted fixture in Rockport Harbor. The Fleming's gig was a perk of being married to Peggy Fleming, who now is the Aransas County Clerk. The two met when Friebele was an engineer's assistant at Lockheed's NASA office and Fleming held a post at the Lunar Receiving Lab. He says she kept track of moon rocks and she never lost a one.
They married in 1968 and moved to Rockport, her hometown, in 1973.
But, during the summer of 1990, hardship tested the family's resolve. Fishing was so poor that many guides were forced out of the business. Friebele worked harder, spending many mornings scooping bay water with a plastic cup and pouring the contents into those plastic bags filled with tiny squiggles that were unrecognizable as redfish. Before the vulnerable larvae could be released they had to be acclimated to their new environment. It was a 20-minute process for each bag to equalize the temperature and salinity of the water.
And the larvae couldn't be released just anywhere. Volunteers were instructed to find shallow seagrass or chordgrass shorelines with plenty of hiding places.
Often Friebele would wade to boggy locations he considered ideal for survival.
He would have considerable trouble doing this today. A degenerative bone condition has put a hobble in his walk. Friebele doesn't do much wade fishing anymore. But he's on the mend, thanks to two artificial knees and some surgical adjustments to his neck and back.
But in the summer of 1990 he was a younger man with a purposeful gait and a strong will. The freeze may have killed many predators in the bays, but he figured the few that remained were hungry. And these tiny redfish represented his future.
When Friebele describes this tedious routine, he's not complaining. In fact, he's quick to tell of the positive results of his labor, though he knows that only a tiny fraction of those larvae survived.
"I must have released well over a million little redfish that summer," Friebele said. "But somebody had to do it. And the fishing was so bad after the freeze, I had plenty of time on my hands."
This wasn't the case for most of the next 20 years. Friebele got his reward. The fishery rebounded well and so did his guide business, which included duck hunts and birding tours. The waterfowl guiding stopped about 10 years ago.
But he still runs about 15 birding tours each year. Identifying birds has been a lifelong hobby for Friebele. In 1989 he ran tours on the Pisces, a 60-foot vessel out of Rockport. During the 1990s Friebele ran 40 to 50 birding tours each winter in his Majek.
While many fishing guides seem almost proud of their lack of bird knowledge — they'll jokingly call a great egret a big white bird when clients ask — Friebele describes the subtle features that distinguish a reddish egret from a great blue heron or he'll point out the distinctive walk of a spotted sandpiper when he sees one during a charter trip.
To soft spoken and grandfatherly Friebele, known within the Coastal Bend angling community as "Gentleman Jim," a day on the water involves much more than yanking fish from the bay.
But he can do that too.
Following a day of foolishly trying again for topwater trout this past week, I ran into Friebele. After hearing about my day he offered to take me and a couple friends out the next morning for some drum. For weeks, several Rockport guides have been making a living in St. Charles Bay on black drum. This is easy fishing, even in wind.
They attribute their good fortune partly to a lack of commercial pressure. The market price of drum is not as high as it once was, though its holding steady. We saw no drum lines in the bay that day.
But we did find some drum and redfish in the back bay. And we spotted a couple alligators, a green-back heron, several flocks of lingering waterfowl including a flight of fulvous whistling ducks and two least bitterns while idling up Burgentine Creek.

Just moved to Princeton, looking for oysters
I'm looking for the best oysters within an hour and a half's drive, preferrably under an hour. Any recommendations?
Blue Point Grill, Princeton.
The absolute best selection of oysters in the area - changes daily but typically about 8 types to choose from. Great fish and seafood as well. byob. Secure a reservation on opentable as it's always busy.
Enjoy and welcome to the area!
Or for do it yourself / take home, try the Metropolitan Seafood & Gourmet store in Lebanon, about a 40-45 minute drive north of Princeton. The proprietor, Mark Drabich, keeps several varieties on hand - east coast and west coast - and usually has one or two that are new to me. His guys will shuck them for you too. The best fish monger in that part of the state.
I don't eat oysters, but several people I've had dinner with at The Metropolitan at The Borgata said they were very good.
Blue Point Grill is absolutely your best bet in the immediate area. If you don't mind driving north, you should also try the Milford Oyster House, one of the best seafood restaurants in New Jersey (as is the Blue Point). The name says it all.
+1 for Blue Point Grill. My wife and I went there for our anniversary in May specifically for the oysters and were not disappointed.

In reviewing the chaos, confusion, and bureaucratic snafus associated with the response to the BP oil spill, David Brooks discovers that "we have a federalism problem." He observes:
All around the region there are local officials who think they know their towns best. They feel insulted by a distant and opaque bureaucracy lurking above. The balance between federal oversight and local control is off-kilter. We have vested too much authority in national officials who are really smart, but who are really distant. We should be leaving more power with local officials, who may not be as expert, but who have the advantage of being there on the ground.
Umm, we have a president — who came highly recommended as "really smart" — who has decided to federalize health care and the car industry and would like to do the same with industrial emissions, financial regulation, and almost anything else he can get his hands on. And "smart," as we have learned the hard way, doesn't mean smart about managing a crisis, or smart about economics, or smart about the medical profession, or smart about any other area of governance. In sum, the people in Washington, especially the president, may be glib and polished, but they possess no monopoly on "smart"; rather, they have an acute shortage of common sense and business experience.
This is a good reminder to be wary of giving the federal government tasks outside its expertise — which includes more than cleaning up an oil spill.

You were there through the bad driving, the head-shaving, and the Criss Angel thing. It?s been a tough year for our girl. No one could have imagined a mere 12 months ago that she?d create such glorious new nonsense every week. Some of the craziness escapes you? Come back every day: We?re counting down the events that made up the Year in Britney.
May 3 – Don't Call it a Comeback – Britney took to the stage in a wig, fur coat, short skirt and trashy boots for her first performance since her divorce and rehab stint. Though she spent a few minutes on stage singing and writhing around, her House of Blues shows looked more like her meltdowns than a performance – with a little choreography sprinkled on top. [People]
May 16 – The Message – The singer became a scribe when she took to her website to post an ultra-personal message to her fans. Thanking them for their prayers, she waxed poetic about their support during her "trying time." Little did they know her situation – and her writing – were only gonna get a lot worse. [I'mNotObsessed]
May 18 – The Weave Debuts! – It's a rug! It's dead roadkill! It's BRITNEY'S WEAVE! Finally, after months of wig-wearing, Britney was able to pay someone enough money to bind pounds of fake hair to the buzz cut she had grown out on her noggin. But her nasty new hair soon became the butt of every blogger's joke, and TMZ even called her hair-tastrophy one of the great man-made wonders of the world. We like to think of it as more of an unnatural disaster. [DListed]
May 29 – I Was So Lost – The starlet capped off the spring with another post to her website, but this time her rambling took on a depressing, helpless tone. In the lengthy post Britney addressed her trip to rehab, her manager, divorce and how she had "cut so many people" out of her life. She went from acknowledging her issues : "I truly hit rock bottom," to sounding surprisingly human: "I just want the same things in life that you want?and that is to be happy." But in the end, she only solidified her reputation as a train wreck. [MTV News, Evil Beet]

When printing:
a) About Photo Paper: Photo paper will give a deeper color and comes in gloss or matte finish. It does tend to use less ink, however it is generally not as sturdy as card stock.
b) About Card Stock: card stock will give you a sturdier surface for your wrappers and toppers, however the colors may be a little more faded and it does tend to soak up more ink.
