"An Archaic Code"
The chem trails have seeped in when clouds cross in the sky, the landscape and sunset smear, and dark tears streak cheeks. Wiping at one, in a blur, but it doesn't help the feeling of being simply upset. So, relax. Have a seat on this here log and enjoy these moments as they blissfully waste life. Not that this is death, no, but that time in every person's life for rejuvenation. Thy mind weeps with colors, while juicing, flooding, and numbing all perception as a whole; one-being of thinking. Everyone is calm. Nobody complains anymore. Mind-poison is "An Archaic Code" to a consensus solution.
And everyone associates poison with something bad. Let's take a step back here and find point A within point B. The Archaic Architecture, if you will. What makes this poison create cooperation? From what plant or from under what rock was this poison extracted? Does it populate the natural state of most everything inhuman? This is real. This is in our minds and sounds and matter. This feels venomous, but important. Like being drunk, only awhile afloat, so physics don't matter. Thus, this log upon you is post-nature. Human is the soil now. Root all that is perpetual into the mind. Become the world's key to… "Yo, that's my boiii Jason Lescallet. Aye, Jason!? Toby and Matt poppin your new c40 today, yeah? That's so ill, my dude! "
Jason Lescallet's new cassette, Archaic Architecture, is out now on NNA Tapes.

Pill Wonder
"Mag & Kev & Rad"
Between press emails and music blog RSS feeds, nearly all of my new music discovery happens from someone else running the spotlight. So it's great when those "I wonder what this band's been up to?" inquiries pay off. Seattle's Pill Wonder has been quiet since their wonderful 2010 release Jungle/Surf," an eight-song safari of jangly, shade-searching pop songs with more than about 30 layers of shaking and thumping auxiliary percussion. Pill Wonder's new track "Mag & Kev & Rad" doesn't stray far from the formula. The guitar tones still bounce around a bed of driving drum sounds, only this time, much of the energy has been toned down to a Julian Lynch kind of wooziness, and the obtrusive, overblown vocals are entirely left out. Check it out below.

The Pluto Moons
Mannequin Legs
Making pop music is something to be made very daringly. Like, like, look at Gaga, Ke$ha even, MNDA's adverts, Daft Punk featuring Giorgio Moroder, anything Ween ever did, ever. So, I'm feeling that vibe with The Pluto Moons' Mannequin Legs. Honestly, without all the verbiage below describing the band or the Bandamp's picture on picture on picture visuals, I imagined just a pair of pantied Mannequin Legs dancing to everything and at the right speed: all entertainment. Controlled and within themselves. Completely conscious of their variety in step and sequence. Right down to the toe, actually. Tipping them legs, shaping the foot arches up to the curves of their calves, and so on. More-so, as if The Pluto Moons were watching these legs lead them in song and groove.
So, here is The Pluto Moons being daring: taking structure and genre and sound, cutting it at the waist, and dancing tracks out with their own patience and humor. Maybe at times a little too far away from where they are trying to take the listener, but sustained by sonic and melodic intrigue. The mystery of "Why?" however is maybe most tossed off. I get that there is mystery here and enjoy their ability to switch up their sound while remaining consistent in pop focused on skill. Shit, it's even daring in lyrics with the song "BlkPPLSellingWhtPPL#Food," leaving listeners a little curious of musician intention, but playfully. Yet, I don't want to know "Why?" As much as I want to, it's hard for me to pinpoint "Why do I want to know more about this album?" My final conclusion: Listen to Mannequin Legs by The Pluto Moons a dozen more times today for answers. It'll be a fucking PARTY!! Also, CDs are available through their Bandcamp, which were exclusively sold on tour before. Get 'em while they're burning!

Douglas Dare
Douglas Dare, London-based singer-songwriter, will be releasing his new EP Seven Hours on one of my most favorite record labels, Erased Tapes. It really is a genuine pleasure to help introduce Douglas Dare to a broader, TMT-friendly audience. I'm always nervous about introducing you all to a new (to us) artist, but I really do trust you all will behave appropriately around him. (I know I should know better, but maybe this time will be different?) I'm counting on you being nice to the guy. Make him feel at home, you know? He's quite good at what he does! And spare him the awkward glances, please, C Monster. Please! And, please, no random Foucault references dropped in conversations, Birkut. (Baby photos are okay, though! Cat photos too, Paul!)
But I'm serious. I have my eye on all of you. Especially you, Ze Pequeno. Especially.
Sigh. Please do that outside, Riboflaven.
Anyway. Yes! It is my pleasure to introduce you all to Douglas Dare and the lovely track from his forthcoming EP, "Lungful." Enjoy!
Shut up, Ben! Ugh.
Do you see what I have to deal with here?
Okay! Now enjoy!
Douglas Dare's Seven Hours EP is out September 30 on Erased Tapes.

Sometimes, unprovoked one-off SoundCloud uploads can feel like browsing the unmarked cassette tapes at a thrift store. No context. No date. No sleeve. When familiarity isn't taken into consideration, the result can be anything you can imagine. The clips from a needle running around the inside groove of a 45 can turn into a rhythm. The squeal of car brakes can become a subtle melody. A single breath looped and repurposed can draw the entire song space. I'm not saying any of these things are making up the sounds you hear on "Pe5." I'm saying, "Who knows?" And it isn't it wonderful that "no one" is the answer?
Listen to "Pe5" below. Maybe it'll end up on an unmarked tape at the bottom of that cardboard box marked "kitchen" in the back corner of the thrift store, and an entire new generation will be able to discern its noises for themselves.

Our first snow was over the weekend. However, I am not sure we had snow right in town, there was snow on the surrounding hills, and we did have some frost. The tomatoes probably froze if not covered. Yes, it is a beautiful fall, with, no doubt, more warm weather to come, so enjoy, as winter is on its way!

|Maternal sensitivity moderates the impact of prenatal anxiety disorder on infant responses to the still-face procedure.
MedLine Citation:
|PMID: 20554325 Owner: NLM Status: In-Process
|Animal studies have demonstrated the interactive effects of prenatal stress exposure and postnatal rearing style on offspring capacity to manage stress. However, little is known about how parenting quality impacts the association between maternal prenatal anxiety and stress reactivity in human infants. This prospective study examined the impact of prenatal anxiety disorder and maternal caregiving sensitivity on infants' responses to a standardised interactive stressor (still-face procedure). Eighty-four women completed a clinical interview during pregnancy to assess anxiety symptoms meeting DSM-IV diagnostic criteria. At infant age 7 months, maternal sensitivity to infant distress and infant negative affect were observed and coded during the still-face procedure. Maternal postnatal (concurrent) anxiety and depression were also assessed at this time. Results indicated a negative association between maternal sensitivity to infant distress and infant negative affect responses to the still-face procedure. An unexpected finding was a positive association between parity and infant reactivity. The main effect for sensitivity was qualified by a significant interaction, p<.05, suggesting that the impact of sensitivity was particularly marked among infants of women who experienced an anxiety disorder during pregnancy. This finding is consistent with a cumulative risk model suggesting that maternal prenatal anxiety and quality of maternal care act in concert to shape infant outcomes.

Research Tips
Unreported Decisions
Unreported decisions are judicial opinions that have not been published in any official or near-official case reporter. They are also called "unpublished decisions," "unreported opinions" and "unpublished opinions." They can be easy or difficult to find.
U.S. Court of Appeals: Unreported decisions of the U.S. Court of Appeals are published in West's Federal Appendix. They are also available in the Federal cases databases on Westlaw and Lexis. If you know the case name or number, unreported Court of Appeals decisions are also available through PACER.
U.S. District Courts: Unreported decisions of the U.S. District Courts can be found in Westlaw's District Court Cases -- Unreported (DCTU) database, as well as the database covering all District Court cases (DCT). Lexis includes unpublished district court decisions with its regular district court case files. If you know the case name or number, and have a password, you can also get an unreported district court decisions from PACER.
Lexis publishes all unreported USDC opinions starting June 21, 2005; prior coverage was selective. To eliminate unpublished opinions from a search, use FOCUS and add "and not notice(unpublish! or publish! or precedent!)" to the end of your search string.
U.S. State Cases: Unreported decisions from U.S. state courts can often be found on Westlaw or Lexis. Unreported state cases may also have appeared in a local legal newspaper, and they are generally included in case law CD-ROMs covering states where unreported opinions are considered persuasive. In some states, unreported decisions are available through the court's online docket system. (For more information on these materials, see the entries for the individual state.)
In addition, an unreported opinion from a high-profile case may be included in the Lexis GENFED;EXTRA or STATES;EXTRA files. And legally significant unreported opinions might have been published in a Mealey's Litigation Report, Westlaw Journal (formerly Andrews Litigation Reporter), CCH or other looseleaf reporters covering the topic in question.
Finally, you should be able to get the opinion from the relevant court clerk, the court library and/or the state library. If you're really, really lucky the opinion could be posted on the court's Web site.
Depublished Opinions: Apparently California and Oregon allow their "state supreme courts, on their own motion, to 'depublish' intermediate appellate court decisions" -- that is, the can change reported opinions into unreported opinions. This is practice is discussed in Aaron S. Bayer's "Unublished Appellate Decisions Are Still Commonplace" from the National Law Journal (August 24, 2009), in print or on Law.com. The article cites to Cal. R. Ct. 8.1125 and Ariz. R. Civ. App. P. 28(f).
Frequently Asked Questions: Joseph Gerken's "A Librarian's Guide to Unpublished Judicial Opinions" asks and answers most of the common questions about unreported decisions (96(3) Law Library Journal 475 (Summer 2004)). Questions addressed include: Why Do Courts Issue Unpublished Opinions? How Can a Court Say That a Decision is Not Precedent? Is Depublication the Same as Nonpublication? Can an Unpublished Decision be "Used" or "Cited"? Is it Possible to Use an Unpublished Decision in a Circuit With a Do Not Cite Rules? and Can an Attorney Ethically Ignore an Unpublished Decision That Supports a Client's Case to Avoid Sanctions for Violating a Do Not Cite Rule? See also Aaron S. Bayer's "Unublished Appellate Decisions Are Still Commonplace" from the National Law Journal (August 24, 2009).
Precedential value: The precedential value of unreported/unpublished opinions issued by Federal appellate courts is established in the court rules for each Circuit (see "Federal Court Rules"). For a discussion of these rules, see "From Anastasoff to Hart to West's Federal Appendix: The Ground Shifts Under Un-Citation Rules," 4 Journal of Appellate Practice and Procedure 1 (Spring 2002) and "Unpublished Appellate Decisions Are Still Commonplace" by Aaron S. Bayer, National Law Journal (August 24, 2009).

Depression accounts for the greatest burden of disease among all mental health problems, and is expected to become the second-highest amongst all general health problems by 2020. By the age of 75, 1 in 7 older people meet formal diagnostic criteria for depression. Efforts to ameliorate the burden of illness and personal suffering associated with depression in older people have focussed on those with more severe depressive syndromes. Less attention has been paid to those with mild disorders/sub-threshold depressive syndromes but these patients also suffer impairments in their quality of life and level of functioning.
The CASPER study has been designed to assemble an epidemiological cohort of people over 75 years of age (the CASPER cohort), from which we will identify those eligible to participate in a trial of collaborative care for sub-threshold depression (the CASPER trial).
We aim to undertake a pragmatic randomised controlled multi-centre trial evaluating the effectiveness and cost-effectiveness of collaborative care; a low intensity psychological intervention in addition to usual general practitioner care versus usual general practitioner care alone. General practitioners from practices based in the North of England will be asked to identify potentially eligible patients over the age of 75 years. Patients will be sent a letter inviting them to participate in the study.
We aim to recruit approximately 540 participants for the CASPER trial. A diagnostic interview will be carried out to ascertain trial eligibility with the major depressive episode module of the Mini International Neuropsychiatric Interview (M.I.N.I.), eligible participants randomised to either the intervention or usual care. The primary outcome will be measured with the Patient Health Questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9) and additional quality of life measures will be collected. Data will be collected at baseline, 4 and 12 months for both trial and cohort participants.

I've never really done anything like this before, ever, and am really happy with the results! I wanted to make a spooky short for Halloween and searched the site for a text record to use and wound up finding Metaphorest's poem. Luckily there was a very creepy and wonderful reading done by rachelb of the poem.
MeganCarnes created this brilliant Little Horror Theme, and Johnnyclyde added some extra spooky elements to it, and they created this incredible audio record that just inspired me so much to turn that little reading into a longer video.
Though I know the poem was originally inspired by an image of a doll by Lindseyd, I interpreted it as a poem about a woman who makes you fall in love with her, but then turns out to be a vampire and sucks the life out of you. So I'm hoping the words work with what MikeK and I recorded. I think it makes sense, but hey I obsessed over it for a few days to make sure it works out :o)
This actually went through a few changes. First it was going to be a video with a girl and a guy and then at the end the girl bites the guy. Then it was going to be a long take of just a girl. And the third script I wrote ended up being this. I really wanted to do the long take, but we didn't have enough space to work with, that would have been so awesome! And this was all supposed to take place in a cemetery, but the closest one that is open at night is 50 mins away…and I couldn't break into the ones close by, ya know how it goes. And we couldn't shoot too early in the day, vampires don't like light. We shot this around sundown in a shaded area.
Side note: I crashed into a tree branch while shooting one of those twirling scenes and cut myself! I have a large gash on my lower back haha. I thought the branch actually punctured me and went into my body!! Haha, now that would have been creepy :o)
Big thanks to MikeK for shooting this for me and doing a damn good job at it too, exactly how I pictured it :o)
It's a little spooky and a little silly and I like it, I hope you like it too :o)
If anyone wants the RAW footage, let me know and I can upload it.

Counting down to LSU-Alabama with a daily dose of analysis and news.
DAYS REMAINING TO KICKOFF: 3, or .6 yards less than Alabama outgains their opponents on an average play; the difference between their 6.8 yards gained per-play and 3.2 allowed is the widest in the nation. LSU's per-play margin checks in at an impressive +1.6 (5.6 offensive, 4.0 defensive), and it's worth noting that that number has come against a tougher schedule than Alabama's ... though that 2.0-yard gap between the teams is still, statistically speaking, an enormous one (and explains why the Tide have been established as the Vegas favorite). 3 is also the number worn by Tide freshman DB/LB Vinnie Sunseri, and that Richardson kid everyone's always going on about.
QUESTION OF THE DAY: We know about the stars on both teams. But of course not every player who'll make an impact on the game will be a star. Who are some of the under-the-radar players that could/should shine Saturday?
Before we answer that, let's note that when we say there are stars on both teams, we mean it. Take a look over this excellent breakdown of the two teams' NFL draft prospects by CBSSports.com draft analyst Rob Rang, and it's obvious that -- despite a light crop of NFL prospects in the Tigers' senior class -- what's "crystal clear as the BCS trophy is that Alabama and LSU are loaded," as Rang writes.
(Maybe the most interesting nugget from Rang's piece? That LSU's Morris Claiborne is "arguably the elite cover corner in the SEC." Wonder what Dre Kirkpatrick, Casey Hayward and even LSU teammate Tyrann Mathieu would say about that.)
But as much fun as it is to discuss the Trent Richardsons and Rueben Randles of the world, we know there's always 22 players on the field and better than 80 on each roster. Saturday's game won't be decided by the draftable athletes alone. So here's three players from each team whose impact could outshine their press clippings:
Anthony Steen, RG. Steen took some heat from Tide fans after struggling mightily with Nick Fairley during his team's collapse from 24-0 ahead in the 2010 Iron Bowl, but the sophomore has rebounded nicely to help the Alabama running game reestablish itself as one of the best in the nation. If Steen can show exactly how much he's improved by handling LSU's powerful tackle tandem of Michael Brockers and Anthony Johnson, the Tide will have taken a big step towards keeping that run game going.
Jesse Williams, DT. The Australian native and former JUCO standout (pictured at left) took a bit to find his feet in Tuscaloosa, but has come on in recent weeks and played a major part in stuffing Arkansas with five tackles overall and two for loss. If he shows similar big-game flair Saturday, LSU will have a tough time moving the ball on the ground.
DeQuan Menzie, CB. The de facto fifth Beatle of the Tide secondary, Menzie will no doubt have just as much to do as his more celebrated teammates, whether it's helping on Randle, gang-tackling Spencer Ware or Michael Ford, or tracking the likes of Odell Beckham Jr. The way Jarrett Lee has been playing, if Menzie plays like a weak link in the Tide defensive backfield, the Tigers will take advantage.
Odell Beckham Jr., WR. Speaking of the true freshman Beckham, Randle can't be the only legitimate threat in the Tiger receiving corps or Barron and Co. will squeeze him out of the game. Beckham (right) and tight end DeAngelo Peterson must make their presence felt.
Will Blackwell, RG. Moving the Tide's front seven out of the holes needed for the LSU running game won't be easy, but if any of the LSU linemen are up to it, it's got to be the agile 6'4", 303-pound senior. It's going to take both power and guile to maintain any running consistency vs. the Tide front, and we like Blackwell's combination of those qualities as much as anyone's on the LSU front.
Kevin Minter, LB. We mentioned two days ago that the LSU linebacking corps hasn't been quite as special as most of the other units on the team, but that doesn't mean this fast-rising sophomore and fellow 'backer Ryan Baker don't have the potential to rise up and play over their heads. They may have to to keep Richardson in check.
THE LATEST HERE AT CBSSPORTS.COM: In addition to Rang's draft breakdown, there's a metric ton of cool LSU-Alabama content here at CBSSports.com. Dennis Dodd has taken a look at the LSU defense under John Chavis and Bruce Feldman the Tide's linebacker-driven D. Bryan Fischer has profiled LSU's budding 2012 recruiting class with Alabama due the get the same treatment at Eye on Recruiting later Wednesday. The Free Bruce Podcast Wednesday with Feldman previewed the game with special guest Paul Finebaum. And here's CBS Sports Network's Jason Horowitz and Spencer Tillman offering their takes on the game:
Tide fans, though, will want to make sure they read Tony Barnhart's Q&A with Nick Saban, as well as watching the video of the interview below:
THE LATEST FROM TUSCALOOSA: We've got some bad news for LSU: Dont'a Hightower says that the Bryant-Denny Stadium crowd has already shown itself capable of hampering opposing offenses ... and maybe even the Tide's own?
"They did an excellent job at Tennessee," Hightower said. "Even when our offense was on the field, they were so loud I couldn't really hear or know what Coach (Kirby) Smart was saying." That's quite the accomplishment, and considering that the crowd should be much livelier for a game it knows could propel their Tide into the BCS national championship ... well, let's just say we're hoping LSU has practiced their silent counts.
Is Richardson not the only Heisman candidate on the Tide roster? Center William Vlachos revealed Tuesday that he, too, has received a Heisman vote ... from Heisman winner and former Tide star Mark Ingram. "Seriously," Vlachos said. "Seriously." We believe you, William.
Also: Saban compares telling his players to ignore the hype to setting down ground rules for a son or daughter's date ... Williams talks about his tradition of painting his face for games ... Duron Carter is playing the part of Jordan Jefferson in practice ... Richardson says Mathieu is a "tremendous player."
THE LATEST FROM BATON ROUGE: Apparently it's not just the Tigers' Australian punter Brad Wing who could use a crash course in the history of their opponent this week; end Sam Montgomery admitted Tuesday he thought of Bear Bryant as a Tide player and said "I don't know anything" about the Alabama legend. We might chalk this up as some kind of odd smack talk if Montgomery didn't also admit to not recognizing Steve Spurrier when the Ol' Ball Coach paid Montgomery's high school a recruiting visit.
We already gave you Saban, so here's Les Miles talking to Tim Brando about the game:
Louisiana governor Bobby Jindal and Alabama governor Robert Bentley have made the politicians' traditional food-based bet on the game, with Bentley offering a Tuscaloosa sandwich shop's "13 National Championships BLT" (with 13 strips of bacon) vs. Jindal's Louisiana seafood dinner. Frankly, as much as we like bacon, we think Bentley's coming out a bit ahead here. But Jindal sonds by far the more confident of the two.
"He (Bentley) is a nice man and a good friend," Jindal said. "But we expect to beat them and treat them badly. We will not be gracious guests." Oh snap!
Also: Miles suggests his team ignore their social media for a week, saying "we needed no Twitter personalities in this game" ... Mathieu, speaking publicly for the first time since his suspension for the Auburn game, says he "let a lot of people down ... Miles said that Jefferson will "play a key role" and be "oiled up and ready."

== History =
Marah was formed by singer/songwriter Dave Bielanko, bassist Danny Metz and drummer Ronnie Vance in 1993. After hearing the band play, the trio was augmented by Dave's older brother, Serge Bielanko, in 1995. The band's first album, "Let's Cut The Crap and Hook Up Later On Tonight," was released in 1998. To date, the band has released five full albums (not counting remixes and Christmas albums), ranging from the straight-ahead rock on �Kids in Phillly� to dance-inspired Britpop on �Float Away With the Friday Night Gods.� Still, despite long-time critical acclaim, Marah have yet to find mainstream success. Among the critics and writers who have championed Marah are Nick Hornby, Stephen King and Rolling Stone�s David Fricke.
The band played at the Bonnaroo Music Festival on June 16, 2006, which was highlighted by a cover of The Who's "Baba O'Riley". ==Discography=

Mopane worms a wriggly delicacyComment on this story
Gwanda, Zimbabwe - In Zimbabwe as well as most parts of southern Africa, mopane worms are a staple part of the diet in rural areas and are considered a delicacy in the cities.
They can be eaten dry, as crunchy as potato chips, or cooked and drenched in sauce.
I decided to document the harvesting, preparation, sale and consumption of the worms, and found the preparation somewhat stomach-turning.
But the worms can be mighty tasty and they're very nutritious. Here's everything you always wanted to know about mopane worms but were afraid to ask.
The worm is the large caterpillar of the Gonimbrasia belina
species, commonly called the emperor moth. It is known as a mopane worm because it is found chomping the leaves of mopane trees after it hatches in summer. It has also burrowed its way into literature, finding its way, for example, into the pages of Alexander McCall Smith's series about The No. 1 Ladies' Detective Agency, set in neighboring Botswana. At least one of the characters munches on dried mopane worms.
After six weeks of rain, the mopane worms can be seen clinging to, and feeding on, the leaves of the mopane trees in rural Gwanda, an arid cattle-ranching area in southern Zimbabwe. Amanda Ncube normally fetches firewood to sell and looks after the family cattle, but when it's worm-harvesting season she joins other women and a few men in collecting the worms, which are as long as the width of two hands and as thick as a cigar. She slowly plucks them from the lower branches before climbing partway up the tree to shake off the higher ones. The more stubborn ones that cling to the leaves and branches are pried loose with a long stick. The worms excrete a brown liquid once they make contact with a human hand, leaving the pickers' hands wet and slippery. As they harvest the worms, the women and men move from one tree to another until their buckets are full. A thick slimy green fluid comes out as Ncube carefully squeezes out the entrails from a mopane worm she has just plucked from a tree. While some worms are prepared on site, other harvesters wait until they are back home where they squeeze out the entrails of the worms before leaving them to dry for a few days in the hot African sun. During harvest season, the porches of mud-walled homes are covered with thousands of worms, laid out to dry.
At the local market, mopane worms are quite popular with residents who buy a cup or two of them and eat them immediately. The market is abuzz with activity, with most stalls strategically displaying the delicacy so people cannot miss them. Vendors offer free samples. The mopani worms are graded according to size and the area where they were harvested. Picky buyers ask about their provenance before buying, favoring worms from one district over another because, to the connoisseurs, worms from one area taste different from those from another.
The mopane worm is a healthful and cheap source of nutrition.
A Zimbabwean nutritionist, Marlon Chidemo, says the worms are high in healthy nutrients and contain three times the amount of protein as beef. He says eating worms is less taxing on the environment than consuming beef because it takes far fewer leaves to produce worms than it does feed to produce the same amount of beef.
Dried mopane worms have become a multimillion-dollar industry, even exported to countries like South Africa and Botswana. They can be found in African restaurants in Paris.
Once they've been dried out, they can be eaten straight away. They can also be cooked in a spicy or peanut butter sauce and served with pap, a maize porridge.
Having grown up eating the mopane worms, I have never had the opportunity to see how they harvest and prepare them until now. While the process is rather disgusting, the worm can be a pleasure to eat as a starter or a side dish. The taste is reminiscent of salty potato chips. Malawi's first President Hastings Kamuzu Banda preferred his just like that, simply dried and then eaten as a snack like chips. Banda was known for carrying around pocketsful of worms that he would also offer to children.
Here is a Congolese recipe that AP's special Africa correspondent Michelle Faul describes as "one of the tastiest" for mopane worms.
Mopani Worms for four people.
Ingredients: 500 grams dried mopane worms; three tomatoes, diced or 1 can of tomatoes; two onions, diced; 1/2 teaspoon turmeric; three fresh green chilies, finely chopped; three cloves of garlic, finely chopped; tablespoon of fresh ginger, finely chopped. Soak dried worms in water for 3-4 hours to reconstitute. Fry onions in groundnut oil on medium heat until translucent. Add turmeric, chilies, garlic and ginger. Fry for about five minutes. Add tomatoes and cook on low for about 20 minutes until spices are well blended. Add drained worms and cook until they have softened a bit but still are a little crunchy. Salt and pepper to taste. Serve with pap, called sadza in Zimbabwe. Enjoy. - Sapa-AP

CARMICHAEL, CA (MPG) - Prestidigitators recently vied for the prestigious Stage Magician of the Year title at the Mission Oaks Community Center, Carmichael. An annual tradition, the contest is run by the Society of American Magicians and the International Brotherhood of Magicians.
A panel of entertainment industry judges chose Miles Tresser for the 2014 title. The 12-year-old Placerville performer wowed his audience with a magical smile, junior-size tuxedo, and slick card routines. Competing against adult professionals, Tresser became the youngest S.A.M. member to take the prize. His passion began at six, when he mastered simple tricks purchased from Sacramento magic stores.
"Miles is a super achiever," beamed his father, Alan Tresser. "He's a champion swimmer and wrestler. He does well at school and also likes to play the saxophone and sing. He did his first magic contest—competing with adults—when he was seven. He's fearless about competing."
Tresser's win at Mission Oaks was augmented by a People's Choice audience vote. "It's great to see a young fellow studying so hard to improve his skills," said S.A.M. President Dale Lorzo. "With his talent, Miles could take magic to new heights." Second place in the contest went to Pepe Puglisi; David Wright took third prize.
The prizewinners have the opportunity to join a cast of pro-magicians in the annual Mysteries of Magic show on October 11th. This event is a tribute to Harry Houdini, who died in October 1926. At the time, the legendary escape artist was national S.A.M. president. The performance begins at 7 p.m. at Mission Oaks Community Center. Before curtain up, strolling magicians will entertain the audience. A fundraiser, the event splits proceeds between the S.A.M and Mission Oaks Community Center programs. Admission is $5. For information, call S.A.M. President Dale Lorzo at (916) 481-2595 or visit www.MORPD.com.

I picked up a yard of this fabric at my LQS (they only had the one bolt). It was so pretty that I started searching online to find more patterns.
This is a yarn dyed Japanese cotton that is the most beautiful cotton I have EVER seen. I ended up ordering 8 more yards to make a quilt. But it is so gorgeous that I wonder if I'll ever be able to cut into it.

For years, I have seen it advertised in quilt magazines but it was impossible to find online and in LQS. I finally gave up, and it's probably more easily accessible now. Isn't it just gorgeous?!?
How is the hand of the fabric?
Eh, go ahead and cut into it. Just order another half-yard to keep for petting. It's really okay to do that. Really. I have just a few fabrics I 'visit.' I take them out of their storage box, admire their beauty (IMO), pet them, and put them back.
------ iPad's auto-correct is my enema.
It actually took a good bit of searching to find the few places that sell this fabric.
It is very silky for a cotton and tightly woven. It's about the same weight as other quilt cottons.
I bought some Daiwabo recently from Hawthorne Threads where it is listed as a house designer -- I bought some home decor fabric called Tip Top Canvas. I think they have a few quilt cottons as well.
I happened to make a trip yesterday to my very favorite quilt shop (about an hour and a half from my home) that I only hit a few times a year. I was stunned when I asked about Daiwabo and the women there showed me at least 50 bolts of it...all absolutly gorgeous. We had quite a time oohing and aahing over it together. So, of course, I had to pick up a few more yards of it.
That's why it's my favorite shop, they always have fabric that no one else has and they have all sorts of items for inspiration.

Kwame DawesBack of Mount Peace
A retired fisherman, Monty Cupidon, encounters a naked, bloodied and traumatised woman standing at the cross-roads. He offers comfort and takes her in. Suffering from amnesia, she cannot tell him anything about herself. The only clues are the signs that she has once worn a wedding ring, has a butterfly tattoo and red nail polish on her toes. In the absence of memory, he names her Esther. So begins a remarkable sequence of poems that explores many dimensions of liminality. Back of Mount Peace occupies a space between lyric and narrative, between reflection and story. It explores the space between body and mind, making Esther's halting discovery of her self through her body, which like a tree bears its indelible history and, unlike the mind, 'doesn't forget its grievances', work both as moving narrative device and a deeply sensed and sensual reminder of the physicality of existence. Above all, this is a sequence that explores a relationship which begins in a primal Edenic space of innocent discovery in which, as Monty hopes, 'the hallelujah's of new love will begin', but which, like all relationships must enter history, the decay of time and the corruptions of knowledge. In the use of rhyme and other patterns of sound, Back of Mount Peace shows an exceptional delicacy of formal control that constantly reinforces the poem's insights and moving conclusions.

Zuheily Rosado was shot and killed while working at a gas station last February. One of her daughters is upset because she says her mom's grave is the ONLY one at the cemetery without a headstone.
) 3 Later today - a family of six who lost their mother in a brutal killing - will attend a ceremony for her in Flagler County. Zuheily Rosado was shot and killed - while working at a gas station last February. One of her daughters is upset - because she says her mom's grave is the ONLY one at the cemetery without a headstone. Thanks to the Justice Coalition and a local company - a new headstone will be unveiled at her gravesite today. Channel 4's Elizabeth Campbell is COVERING FLAGLER COUNTY with this story. 3 0-521-2728-34 Losing your mother is hard enough -- especially when all of her children are so young. Rosado's second to oldest daughter Kayle , who is 16, was even more upset because she says when she goes to visit her mothers grave, she felt sad thinking that no one would know who her mom was because she didn't have a marker -- but that's all going to change today.SOT - 0140 we will have the unveiling of that head stone and this young girl will have a dream come true as she helps to unveil this stone TRACK - Ann Dugger says the Justice Coalition couldn't be happier to help make this happen. 32-year-old Zuheily Rosado was gunned down last February while working at a Palm Coast gas station to support her 6 children. Her second to oldest daughter, 16-year-old Kaylee, was having a hard enough time dealing with the loss of her mother. But what keeps her and her siblings from finding peace -- is that they can't afford a gravestone to help properly remember their mother. Thanks to the Justice Coalition and Southern Monument -- a beautiful headstone will be unveiled today at a ceremony honoring Zuheily and the brave children she left behind.SOT - 0316 being able to have this for remembrance today there could be a place they can go back and see their mother has a name they can sit at the grave and find a place of remembrance and remember those things that was so special to them as they were growing up TRACK - Dugger thinks this ceremony will finally bring this family the happiness they deserve.SOT - 0455 i think this is going to change her future and knowing she can go there and my mama has her name Dugger tells me that the family knows about the ceremony and the unveiling of their mother's headstone but she says they don't know EVERYTHING that is taking place -- There are a couple of surprises in store for the family. The ceremony will take place today at noon at Craig Flagler Memorial Cemetery and anyone is welcome to attend.

Native Plants: Tips for planting and maintaining a drought-tolerant garden with native plants
Water-wise gardening discussions have occurred for years, but the recent California drought has elevated interest in less thirsty landscaping.
My goal here is to offer water-wise landscaping ideas with an emphasis on drought-tolerant native plants. A common misconception about California native plants is, "They require little or no water." Most are drought tolerant when they are planted in their natural range — and once they are established.
Some native plants planted outside their natural range consume large amounts of summer water to survive, like the coast redwood in Redding.
Even though lawn replacement is a growing trend throughout California, some people will not relinquish their lawns. Fortunately native plant "turfs" exist that require less water, fertilizer and labor. These include herbal lawns such as yarrow (for sun) and yerba buena (for shade), meadows of bunchgrasses (fescue, blue gramma grass, California melic grass, and purple needlegrass — the state grass), or warm-season native grasses that tolerate regular foot traffic with UC Verde Buffalograss considered best for our climate.
A California native plant is commonly defined as existing in the California floristic province before European settlement. The California floristic province is composed of biotic communities spreading from southern Oregon, down California and into Baja California. A biotic community hosts interdependent organisms that inhabit a particular region.
The Redding area contains several biotic communities: oak woodland, chaparral, mixed-evergreen forest, grassland and riparian. The plants in these communities have adapted to local climate, water availability, soils and wildlife. They exist without the intervention (watering, soil amending, pest controlling) of humans. A good way to explore these communities is to join a guided field trip with the CNPS Shasta Chapter (shastacnps.org).
An important objective of landscaping with native plants, and landscaping in general, is planting the right plant in the right location. Spending the time reading and researching increases your success and ultimately saves time and money. Start with the site analysis: size, sun/shade, soil/drainage, wet/dry, flat/sloped, deer pressure, fire threat, wind, views, and proximity to existing structures. Try to, as the CNPS suggests, "select plants that suit the site rather than to modify the site to suit the plants."
The fun but challenging next step is deciding what plant characteristics you desire. Think about size and form; rate of growth; evergreen or deciduous; foliage texture and color; colors of flowers, berries, and seedpods; timing of flowering; scent of flowers and foliage; fall color; fire and deer resistance; attracting pollinators and other wildlife; soil/drainage and water requirements. The early design phase of the garden should emphasize hydrozoning; grouping plants with the same water requirements in the same watering zone, which will promote efficient watering.
The native plant garden is a habitat garden that inevitably attracts lizards, frogs, birds, butterflies, bees, beneficial bugs (most insects are beneficial), and other fauna. Wildlife require water, food and shelter. A steady supply of food consists of flowers and fruit emerging during the different seasons. Groupings of trees, shrubs, herbaceous perennials, annuals, groundcovers, grasses, and vines create layers of shelter for the different creatures. Natural predators keep garden pests in check and maintain a healthier, balanced garden. The habitat garden provides one with a "sense of place."
Once the site information, the desired plant characteristics, and the design of the garden are established, time to choose and find the plants. Tour the local biotic communities mentioned earlier, consult enthusiastic volunteers and workers at native plant sales and nurseries, visit local residential native plant gardens and native plant community gardens (Celebration Garden at the North Valley Art League Carter House, Turtle Bay Arboretum and Botanical Gardens, and Shasta College Demonstration Garden), peruse the Sunset Western Garden Book and the Internet (shastacnps.org, laspilitas.com, and shrb.blogspot.com). Many California native plants tolerate an array of soils and climate zones, but you will succeed more often and consume fewer resources if you choose from native plants that thrive in our biotic communities.
The plants have arrived, now to plant and maintain the garden. Fall is the best time to plant; warm soil and rain will help establish a healthy root system. Spring is a distant second best time to plant natives in our "extreme" Mediterranean climate. Weed control is essential before planting. Generally, avoid amending the native soil when planting; top off with 2 to 4 inches of mulch, keeping it away from the trunk (avoids rot and disease).
Ordinarily, native plants flourish in nutrient-poor soils. Avoid fertilizing, especially during the hot months or when the plants are dormant. Mulch lowers water demand by reducing moisture evaporation from the soil. It also stabilizes the soil and root temperature, offers a finished look and hides drip irrigation. Organic mulch for woodland and forest gardens (mimics decaying leaves and branches) improves soil structure and supports biological activity. Since organic mulch quickly decomposes during our hot summers, frequent reapplication is necessary.
The first few years the native plants need babying (mulching and watering) until established. Always water to the root depth. As the plants mature, adjust the watering to cover the spreading roots. Once established, water deeply and infrequently. This promotes deeper rooting that better tolerates drought conditions. Also during drought conditions, remember to thoroughly water the California native plants throughout the normal "rainy" season. If you plant the right drought-tolerant native plant in the right spot, once established it will require little if any summer watering. A few noteworthy examples include silver bush lupine, foothill penstemon, Douglas's iris, some buckwheat species, white sage, Cleveland sage, wooly blue curls, California coffeeberry, some ceanothus species, toyon, flannel bush, and western redbud.
One of the rewards of drought-tolerant native plant gardening is the relatively low amount of maintenance. A misconception is that they take "no maintenance." Remove broken and crossing branches, pest-riddled or infested parts, and some faded flowers. Weeding is imperative, because weeds compete with the desired plants for resources and can harbor pests and diseases. Pest and disease monitoring is always vital, sometimes necessitating replanting. Routine and thoughtful maintenance will keep the native plant garden looking its best.
The vast majority of native plant gardens are informal, exemplified by natural spaces. If you desire a more ordered, pristine and manicured garden, a native plant garden might not be your cup of tea. Life is like a native plant garden, sometimes appearing messy and untidy. However, once the whole experience comes together, you have a sustainable, pleasurable, and gratifying native plant garden.

By imposing the overwhelming majority of the risk of error on the defendant in its application of the most stringent standard possible, Georgia holds that it is far better to erroneously execute a mentally retarded person than to erroneously impose a life sentence on one not mentally retarded. Requiring a defendant to prove mental retardation beyond a reasonable doubt is appropriate only if the interests of a state in maximizing the number of death sentences outweigh the constitutional right of mentally retarded offenders not to be executed. This state interest, however, is not constitutionally permissible at the cost of violating the constitutional right of a mentally retarded offender not to be executed.
Hill v. Schofield, __ F. 3d __ , Case No. 08-15444 (11th Cir., June 18, 2010), slip op. at pgs. 14-15.
However, the decision was not without strong dissent. I am no lawyer, but a few folks I know withknowledge of these matters suggest that it is likely that the state will ask for a a rehearing in front of the entire array of the 11th circuit's judges, a procedure known as motion for rehearing en banc. A motion for rehearing is (according to my sources) a prerequisite for seeking review by the SCOTUS.
Although the case is limited to the 11th Circuit (Fla, Ala, Ga) it could potentially have impact elsewhere. The concept of limited powers to define and apply Atkins could possibly be extended beyond just the burden of proof (e.g., one could argue bright line cutoff scores, SEM, and courts claiming to know the types of behaviors the define the AB prong of the Dx--Briseno AB standards in Texas).
Clearly this case warrants close monitoring.
I have added the case to the ICDP Court Decisions blogroll with a link to the decision.

1. Re: How are you using Wallaby? (Request from Adobe)al385 Apr 5, 2011 2:02 PM (in response to michael.orourke)
First of all - I love the idea behind Wallaby!
In my mind the biggest obstacle in using it is the lack of Android support. Webkit is used by both iOS/Android but I understand SVG support is omitted from the Android browser (there are some rumors that Honeycomb should correct this). However would it be possible to have some sort of a fallback mechanism in place for browsers that don't support SVG? Like possibly an extra (optional) checkbox to just render everything as PNGs too?
What I wanted to use Wallaby for is for animated elements in html/js cross-platform mobile development. So basically I'd code everything in javascript/html5 and then use tools like Phonegap to export it as an app for Android and iOS (and possibly other platforms in the future). This is why for example file size is not an issue in my case and having a png-based fall-back mechanism could be an attractive option until the SVG support is sorted out and the next version of Android is widely adopted.
Also a quick question - any idea why html5 wallaby-exported animation is running terribly choppy on my new (dual-core?) iPad2 and yet smoothly on my old iPhone 3GS? Doesn't make any sense.
2. Re: How are you using Wallaby? (Request from Adobe)jmerrilljr2 Apr 7, 2011 10:24 AM (in response to al385)
I'm in the Digital Publishing Prerelease program (creating "apps" or magazines for the iPad.) I wanted to do a cover with a simple slide in animation which I was able to code usings/CSS/html 5. The problem with my coding was that the animation would sometimes load and sometimes not. This was inconsistent and I could not solve the problem. I recreated the animation in Flash and used Wallaby to generate the html/css. The animation performed as desired with one exception--it seemed to slow down the page load very slightly with the result that the background image (whether part of the animation or not) would take a fraction iof a second to resolve - going from blurry to sharp.
3. How are you using Wallaby? (Request from Adobe)MobileDesign May 24, 2011 10:38 AM (in response to michael.orourke)
Currenty using Wallaby to cut a lot of work. Sencha-touch does not stop animation and importing/editing graphics is time-consuming.
What is needed is actionscript that could be converted into the JQuery instead of css3...dontcha think so? some simple actionscript would be really helpful (the same thing that you did with Flash Lite 1.0 years back in Japan) . Predicting that your team is already working with this.

still need more examples and tutorials regarding understanig so we can manipulate it as per our needs.
5. Re: How are you using Wallaby? (Request from Adobe)CarlMa Sep 14, 2011 11:29 AM (in response to michael.orourke)
Hello, Thanks a lot for your efforts to write a Flash->HTML5 converter.
I understand, that it is currently not supporting AS3 conversion.
May I ask, whether you heard about emscripten (https://github.com/kripken/emscripten) - This is a LLVM to JavaScript compiler which runs well.
Having this and your great ios-exporter (which uses LLVM as a middle layer) it shouldn't be too complicated to add AS3 to JavaScript to Flash.
I can give you more details, if wished.
To explain: We are developing most of our web-based-stuff with Adobe Flash CS 5.5 and are currently evaluating whether we should continue (this would be the best solution for us, because of the code base and most of all because of the great Flash-IDE Debugger etc.)
With an extended Wallaby, we could write cross-plattform code: for apps and for web and all with one code base (which is AS3, a great object oriented language).
As you see, we are more than willing to support your platform. But for this, we need support from you as well:
1) What is the roadmap of Wallaby (To be honest, I cannot understand why you are not publishing this, this would be a great opportunity for you to sell more Flash CS 5.5 and most of all keep the huge developer base with Adobe)
2) Is it planned, to do more frequent updates on Wallaby (I cannot wait half a year to get a bug fixed, a timeframe of four weeks would be perfect)
Thanks and I am open for every discussion on this topic.
6. Re: How are you using Wallaby? (Request from Adobe)Yozef0 Sep 19, 2011 11:13 AM (in response to michael.orourke)
There was something reassuring in CarlMa's remarks, which I share. Somehow, I saw it more Flex -> HTML5 + JS Components (matching all attributes one to one). Either case Wallaby is a great attempt and adventure which I'm sure will export in one way or another the Flash Stage to the HTML5 Canvas through Adobe's SVG, effectively & efficiently. It is obvious that Adobe in a way has an important impact on W3C's HTML5 and web standards through the tools they create for the developer community. As for Wallaby in production, as is today, is fairly primitive and narrow in it's use cases, and but a great endeavour to pursue!
7. Re: How are you using Wallaby? (Request from Adobe)mikelly3614 Oct 26, 2011 10:51 PM (in response to michael.orourke)
this is completely brilliant! I converted one of my student's animations almost instantly. they're using Flash to create splash pages for their e-portfolios (at my insistence even though some of them are balking due to iProduct and Lion compatibility issues).
I presume it will work on iPads; they will be so freaking happy and so will I!
why aren't we hearing more about this? when will it be updated?
this could be revolutionary!
thank you guys. please finish!!!!!

I have an .htrml page that previously had two .swf files running on it that I've converted to Wallaby .css/.js animations so that they'll show up on mobile devices. After I had converted the first .swf animation and pasted the code in both the <head> and <body> section, it displays and animates great. However, once I add the second animations code in both the <head> and <body> section, it really screws up how both of them display and animate. Can I not have two running on one page?
Here's the page I'm working on.
It would also be nice to be able to convert .fla files that contain either embedded video or an external video with playback component.

St. Paul's East Side dominance in badminton has belonged to Johnson and Harding high schools the past eight years, with each winning four state championships in a row.
Harding won the title from 2006-09, and Johnson has won it every year since, its latest a 7-0 victory over Harding in the title match Wednesday at Burnsville High School.
The top-seeded Governors capped a 17-0 season by winning 20 of 21 individual matches during the two-day state tournament.
"To win four state championships is pretty amazing," said senior Ka Lia Her, Johnson's No. 1 singles player. "When I started playing varsity as a freshman, I never imagined we could be so successful."
In the past four seasons, Johnson has a combined 57-3 record, with one loss in each of the past three seasons.
"This team is a coach's dream," Johnson coach Mark Fischbach said. "This run of dominance has been incredible, and the girls deserve all of the credit. They showed up at practice every day, ready to work. I can't say enough good things about them."
You can already pencil Johnson in as the favorite to win No. 5 in a row next year with the return of 10 underclassmen who played on the varsity this season. The Governors had a combined 113-7 record in singles and doubles matches this season.
Even Harding coach Tracy Hrouda, whose team lost three times to Johnson this season, was impressed.
"Their run is very comparable to ours," she said. "We were that team back then that was doing it to other teams. It's really special to be a part of that kind of success.
Johnson clinched its latest championship at No. 2 doubles with Song Fang and Genda Lee's 21-19, 21-9 victory over Harding's Shawnee Theng and Julia Lee. That gave the Governors an insurmountable 4-0 lead. Her made it 5-0 with a 21-15, 21-14 victory over Harding's Panyia Vue.
Her moved to St. Paul from Wausau, Wis., in 2006. She was happy to make the move partly because she knew Minnesota offered badminton as a high school sport and Wisconsin did not.
"I was super happy coming to Minnesota," she said. "I'm so glad I started this sport when I was a little girl. In Minnesota, I've had the opportunity to improve so much and to experience the joy of winning."
Her said she would love to continue playing badminton in college but is unaware of any schools that offer it as a competitive sport. She plans to attend the University of Minnesota to get a degree in education and to coach badminton.
"I want to give back and help, just the way I was helped when I came to Minnesota," she said.
Her is seeded No. 2 in singles when the tournament switches to individual competition Thursday at Eden Prairie. Central's Law Law is the favorite and No. 1 seed in singles after losing in the championship match last year. Highland Park's Gao Lee, the defending champion, is nursing a knee injury and won't decide until Thursday if she can play. If she does, she will be the No. 3 seed.
Burnsville defeated Edina 5-2 in the third-place match.
