Welcome to frostmane.
having ganked and spanked all the gnomes on dragonmaw, farq and his friends decided to move to a new realm... a realm full of gnomes who have never known the fear of being chased by a big angry orc with a big orange hammer... and of course hundreds more stupid allies who think they can grind or ride to their instance in peace and tranquility.
well, here is the first day of farq on the Frostmane (EU) realm server.
the first order of duty was looking for new friends.
i met up with my pvp buddy talangar and we quickly found some dragonmaw noobs to kill. they didn't drop any sandwiches (i have a GM ticket open on this) so we kept looking for new allies - fresh allies, FROSTMANE allies!
zomg! first frostmane ally kill, a nub warrior with bwl axe and valor gear. i can already tell this server is full of pve'ers... it's surely time to add some pvp to frostmane.
and pvp doesnt always involve fighting under circumstances which are completely fair.
and so the allies start to whine about it.
hey, i might as well kill this hunter cindel. gief sandwich plx!!
AGAIN, no damn sandwich. :( <- sad panda face.
full tier2 doesn't really help, unless u have 5 scattershots...
there's that hunter cindel again - keel!!
another hunter. l2freezetrap and run keke.
Woot - first frostmane gnome kill! enjoy the taste of the silithus dirt, halfpint.
and so it was time to meet some of the big frostmane guilds. meet: Victus Forensis.
Hi Cindel! Still no sandiwch ??
meet: Nefarius.
LoL, that ice block is REALLY gonna help alot...
Mmm... dead frostmane allies taste Good. anyone for a gnome steak ?
meet: Momento Muri. (but, isn't red just so last season? wts [Fashion Sense]...)
more ganking action!
Zomg... as in... "zomg it's a long corpse walk to the scarab dias."
all gnomes must frigging DIE.
and yes we've killed quite a few allies already. /cheer for pvp on the new server.
Oops, I think the allies are a little upset now... a full 40 man raid came down from aq and ended our little get-together.
and i quickly found out that wherever you find decent, honorable players who will come and help out their friends who are in trouble, you will also find jerks who take sick pleasure in laughing at other people's misfortune.
QFT nubcake! the allies here are NOT happy pandas and as a result u just got owned.
and so it was awesome to meet new frostmane allies, from all the big guilds. however no evening is complete without ganking some nubs from dragonmaw.
hehe, dead again. you guys are getting quick on the "Release" button!
but still, NO DAMN SANDWICHES.
and so ended my first day on frostmane. it seems a fun server, no ques, lag-free, plenty of guilds running around in aq epix (you can tell them, they're the ones that look like bugs), unfortunately many nubs from dragonmaw :( but hey i won't complain, i'll just gank them because they deserve it.
finally i'll leave you with a quote from irc: "we have an understanding of peaceful co-existance in grinding and outdoor zones".
something tells me this is all going to change on frostmane....
catch u soon on frostmane (EU) - farq.

Confessions Of A Curvy Girl: Lingerie After Dark
- Published by

- Leave your thoughts
Who says because you are over a size 10 that you cannot and should not wear form fitting, sexy sleep wear? Not this girl. Sure, I have plenty of things to sleep in that are both comfortable and warm when it needs to be family friendly. But what about those times when you need something a bit more- adult?
Get some good ideas at HerRoom.com
My opinion of lingerie, specifically the kind I think my husband would like to see, has changed over the years. There has been quite a trajectory from a newly married woman to new mother to exhausted working woman to someone pushing forty. It has become less about the sex appeal of the piece and more about making something work for me, my body type, and the situation.
Most men would argue about what constitutes 'sexy' and I definitely do not have enough time or space to debate that here. But what I do know is that wearing something that makes YOU feel comfortable and is of good quality already sets you off on the right foot.
Confidence- now THAT is sexy!

|Another top 5 find! I love the hairpin legs and get this... the entire top spins!!
I was in the process of painting it here... more pics to come.
|Another children's chair for the collection. I actually painted
this one green and had it for sale in the Somethings Sale
but (thankfully!) no one bought it. I kinda love it.
|Chair - to be painted
|Another gold tea cart! I am VERY tempted to paint it turquoise.
|Another vintage metal stool from the Sampler like this one.
I'll be giving it a fresh coat of paint -- kind've thinkin'
yellow on this guy.
|This little vintage vanity stool was just screamin' for
a makeover. The possibilities...
|How darn cute is this pint-sized red/white striped
vintage folding beach chair? Too cute, that's how cute!
|And last but not least is this old ladder back chair.
The cushion has been recovered and the frame will
be getting a paint job. Pics to come...

Fayetteville, North Carolina residents like Aidan J. Cassidy may be looking skyward for law enforcement assistance soon. Last year, the State General Assembly of North Carolina engaged a working group to develop a report and recommendations on the use of drones for such assistance. This issue is of particular interest to Cassidy since not only is he on the city council, he is also a former police officer.
The report to the Joint Legislative Oversight Committee on Information Technology was delivered by N.C. Chief Information Officer Chris Estes early in March of this year. The group studied the prospective roles for unmanned surveillance aircraft, the safety records of the drones, possible infringements on privacy, data security and management in addition to operating costs and funding concerns.
The report supports "the safe and responsible use" of remote piloted drone aircraft by local and state agencies in North Carolina. "This will change law enforcement in a fundamental way," says Aidan J. Cassidy. "Having access to a live bird's eye view of an area could be a valuable tool in public safety."
Supporters of the use of unmanned surveillance drones have identified many potential uses for the aircraft beyond policing. They include search and rescue, emergency response, surveying, mapping, firefighting support, evaluating natural disasters and agricultural research. It appears drones are becoming another tool for officials but are the benefits worth the potential loss of privacy?
Private/Public Debate
John Villasenor, in an article written for Scientific American, says "because they [drones] can perch hundreds or thousands of meters in the air, drones literally add a new dimension to the ability to eavesdrop. They can see into backyards and into windows that look out onto enclosed spaces not visible from the street."
Using a fleet of unmanned aircraft, government officials could potentially keep track of every vehicle in a city or town. In an emergency, such as a serious crime in progress, this could be a huge asset to ensuring public safety. Abused, the technology could lead to spying on innocent US citizens.
Control Issues Studied
Earlier this year, the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) stated they had chosen six research and test sites in the U.S. to develop criteria that would govern the use of drones on US soil. These sites will be looking at safety risks, how drones handle different climates, as well as citizen interests such as: operations, pilot qualifications and use for commercial purposes.
The studies are in reaction to the increased use of surveillance drones by policing agencies in the absence of any defining state or federal legislation. In an article for talkingpointsmemo.com, Bailey McCann says, "U.S. Customs and Border Patrol has loaned out its drone fleet hundreds of times to law enforcement officers for use on U.S. citizens and not just individuals streaming across the border."
This use of the technology is forcing legislators to create rules and regulations to govern the operation of unmanned aircraft.
Affordable Policing
With the improvements in drone safety and reduction in purchase and operating costs domestic applications for unmanned aircraft is expected to soar.
"For smaller jurisdictions having access to this technology could be an affordable addition to emergency services," says Aidan J. Cassidy. "Local governments are always trying to find creative ways to reduce costs while improving the services to the citizens."
Anthony L. Kimery, Executive Editor of hstoday.com, argues drones can be a force multiplier for law enforcement.
"Cities, towns and municipalities facing strained budgets and dwindling resources may more easily be able to afford drones than traditional big ticket first response equipment and personnel," he says.
"Consequently, for some local governments, it will give them a bigger bang for their (law enforcement) buck."
Commercial Applications
The use of drones is not confined to policing and emergency services. States across the U.S. are considering applications from companies to incorporate drones into their business activities. Last year AeroVironment, Inc. received a "Restricted Category" rating for one of its drones from the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA). This was the first time this category was given to an unmanned craft and permits operators to fly the drone for commercial missions like oil spill monitoring and ocean surveys.
Not all jurisdictions are happy with the increasing acceptance of drones in the sky. Deer Trail, Colorado, for example, is considering a legislation that would offer civilians license to shoot drones out of the sky. This hostile view of drones is not shared by a majority of Americans, according to a poll released in June 2013 by the Aerospace Industries Association (AIA).
It showed 54 percent of Americans favor the use of drones for civilian purposes, including border patrol, weather prediction and disaster response. Another poll conducted by the Institute for Homeland Security Solutions (IHSS) found "an overwhelming majority of Americans support the use of unmanned aircraft for homeland security, search and rescue and fighting crime."
It is clear the use of drones will become more prevalent by law enforcement agencies across America. For local officials like Aidan J. Cassidy they may be a tool to help save lives and reduce the costs of policing to taxpayers.

Tired of the pace and noise of life near London and longing for a better place to raise their young children, Mary J. MacLeod and her husband, George, encountered their dream while vacationing on a remote island in the Scottish Hebrides. Enthralled by its windswept beauty, they soon were the proud and startled owners of a near-derelict croft house-a farmer's stone cottage-on "a small acre" of land. Mary assumed duties as the island's district nurse. All the Island People is her account of the enchanted years she and her family spent there, coming to know its folk as both patients and friends. In anecdotes that are by turns funny, sad, moving, and tragic, she recalls them all, the crofters and their laird, the boatmen and tradesmen, young lovers and forbidding churchmen. Against the old-fashioned island culture and the grandeur of mountain and sea unfold indelible stories: a young woman carried through snow for airlift to the hospital; a rescue by boat; the marriage of a gentle giant and the island beauty; a ghostly encounter; the shocking discovery of a woman in chains; the flames of a heather fire at night; an unexploded bomb from World War II; and the joyful, tipsy celebration of a ceilidh. Gaelic fortitude meets a nurse's compassion in these wonderful true stories from rural Scotland.

According to the National Institute of Mental Health, an estimated 3.3 million Americans suffer from Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD). The condition is characterized by distressing and intrusive thoughts (obsessions), and/or repetitive, ritualistic behaviors (compulsions). Sufferers may be preoccupied by an irrational fear of dirt or germs so they wash their hands over and over again. Or they may worry so much that they are going to be victims of crime that they repeatedly check to make sure their doors and windows are locked. Even being overly concerned with order and symmetry is a symptom.
But just double-checking to make sure you didn't leave the stove on or that your doors and windows are locked does not constitute a diagnosis of OCD. It's only when these thoughts and actions get in the way of your everyday life that you may suffer from the condition.
While we don't know what triggers it, we do know that it strikes men and women in equal numbers and tends to show itself in childhood. In its most severe forms, it can cripple a person to the point where they have trouble functioning in society and may even stop working.
The good news is that great strides have been made in treating OCD involving Exposure and Response Prevention, the gold standard therapeutic approach. This involves facing one's fear but resisting the temptation to ritualize it. For instance, if you have a fear of germs, you might be asked to touch a toilet seat but refrain from washing your hands. Though traumatizing at first, over time your anxiety level will wane and, perhaps, even disappear. By combining this with cognitive therapy and, in some cases, medication, we are realizing better outcomes. Including the patient's family into the process can reap even better results.
Recently, Johns Hopkins researchers identified a genetic marker linked to OCD. If this finding is confirmed, it might prove useful in understanding its origins and help us in treating it.

I bought an Apple Magic Trackpad. The device is working out of the box on Ubuntu 11.04 64bit.
However, when I tap with 3 - or more - fingers the device stops working. It works again if I disconnect it and then connect it again. I've tried touchegg but it didn't work.
Is there any solution to disable 3 or more fingers for tapping?

New York Yankees right-handed pitcher Michael Pineda was suspended for ten games on Thursday, one day after he was caught possessing a foreign substance on his person in his start against the Boston Red Sox. Pineda has decided not to appeal, which means the suspension will begin immediately and the Yankees will be forced to carry a 24-man roster for the duration of his suspension.
The 25-year-old pitcher was spotted with a brown substance smeared on his neck by Red Sox manager John Farrell, who brought it to the attention of the umpiring crew. Upon investigation, the substance was determined to be pine tar, and Pineda was ejected in accordance with Major League Baseball rule 8.02 (b).
During a post-game interview, Pineda admitted what everyone watching on television already knew.
"In the first inning, I could not feel the ball and I didn't want to hit anybody so I put [pine tar] on," Pineda admitted, declaring that he would learn from the mistake.
More: Pineda ejected after using pine tar in Yankee loss
However, it is unknown why Pineda did not learn from a previous mistake. The pine tar incident from Wednesday comes just two weeks after Pineda was spotted with a substance on his pitching hand while playing against the same Red Sox team. Because it was not brought to the attention of the umpires, no disciplinary action ever came of the issue.
Yankees general manager Brian Cashman voiced his disappointment in Pineda on Thursday, indicating that the team had multiple conversations with the young right-hander since the first incident.
"I'm surprised that we as an organization are in this position," Cashman noted when talking to reporters. "There have been enough conversations. And obviously there will be more now, or there have already been more now, even in-game when he was ejected from the game. I think after the last go-around with the same team, clearly there were a lot of conversations about this. There are no secrets there."
Despite the ten-game suspension, Pineda will miss just one start due to off days built into the Yankee schedule. Though nothing is official, it is expected that David Phelps, who lost out to Pineda for the final spot in the rotation, will receive a spot start.

Research Interests
Fungal genetics, population biology, and evolution
Ongoing Research
Population genetics and evolution of fungi. I am interested in the processes that shape the structure of fungal populations including sexual and somatic recognition, reproduction, mutation and recombination. To investigate the impact of these natural processes in populations, our research uses the tools of molecular genetics, genomics, and evolutionary biology. Current research includes the following:
- mating systems, population biology, and ecolutionary genetics of basidiomycete fungi
- experimental evolution of yeasts
- evolution of resistance to antifungal agents
- genetics of adapatation in fungi
- speciation in fungi (collaborator and co-PI, Linda M. Kohn)

An endowed scholarship has been established with the Moraine Park Foundation by the Francis R. and Ruth E. Oberreich Foundation in Markesan.
This new general scholarship is available to all qualified Moraine Park program students. Applicants must be enrolled for at least nine credits per semester and maintain a grade point average of at least 2.75. Financial need is among the criteria used to determine scholarship recipients.
"An endowed scholarship ensures student scholarships for perpetuity and is an outstanding memorial to individuals like Francis and Ruth Oberreich," said Sharon Nevins Holmes, Moraine Park vice president of marketing and college advancement. "Increasing the Moraine Park Foundation's endowed scholarship fund will enable us to make education a reality for more students."
The private foundation established by the late Francis and Ruth Oberreich is dedicated to helping youth and makes annual gifts to churches, schools and other nonprofit organizations. This is the first endowed scholarship the Oberreich Foundation has given.
Lynn Funk, Oberreich Foundation board president, said education was something that Ruth Oberreich always felt was important so when the opportunity arose for the foundation to create an endowed scholarship, the board felt it was "a match made in heaven," she said.
"The idea that this money is perpetual is what was really appealing," said Funk. "The money that has been donated will go on and on and continue to help people who want to go on to college but need some additional assistance."
For more information about the Moraine Park Foundation, visit www.morainepark.edu or call Sharon Holmes at 920-924-6326.

Revisiting, Representing and Reimagining Education: (Re)Telling School Stories
Did you receive a good education? What is a "good" education (and is it something you "receive")? What is education for, and for whom?How could your K-12 education have been different? This course asks you to revisit your schooling experiences using sociological, cultural studies, historical, and philosophical lenses, which you will develop during the semester. We will examine the purposes, practices, and contexts of education and the stories we tell about school. We will consider how political and social forces shape school life—how do the structures of race, class, sexuality, and gender reproduce themselves in schools? How do capitalism, globalization, neoliberalism, and democracy play out in education? Through critically reflecting on and writing about your own education and through examining a range of popular educational narratives, you will explore how these forces influence the ways we think about and talk about school. We will interrupt some of the "commonsense" talk about school and work to tell new, more inclusive, and more democratic stories about school.

Stuart Slotnick
Attorney, Buchanan Ingersoll and Rooney
Tuesday, December 7, 2010; 12:30 PM
Julian Assange, the founder of the WikiLeaks Web site whose release of sensitive U.S. documents on the Internet has generated outrage and embarrassment in official circles, was denied bail Tuesday after he was arrested by British police on a Swedish warrant for alleged sex crimes.
Stuart Slotnick, attorney with Buchanan Ingersoll and Rooney, was online Tuesday, Dec. 7, at 12:30 p.m. ET to discuss the legal issues of Assange and WikiLeaks.
Slotnick concentrates his practice in commercial litigation, white-collar and government investigations, civil litigation, intellectual property, medical malpractice, mass tort litigation, products liability litigation and personal injury litigation.
Stuart Slotnick: Stuart Slotnick attorney and managing shareholder of Buchanan Ingersoll & Rooney's New York City Office is available to discuss the WikiLeaks potential prosecution and developing news relating to Julian Assange's arrest in the United Kingdom.
San Antonio, Tex.: I assume that the statute that would be used against Assange is 18 USC 793(e), which starts out "Whoever having unauthorized possession" (of defense-related stuff). There is nothing limiting who the "whoever" might be, nor how they came into possession of the material, nor indeed that the material be of U.S. government provenance, let alone that it be classified.
If such a prosecution were to succeed, I'd think it would be a tremendous step toward establishing 18 USC 793 as an official secrets act of great scope.
Stuart Slotnick: You are correct that the DOJ will consider using 18 USC 793(e) as a basis to prosecute Assange, however, the government must prove that Assange has "reason to believe [the information disclosed] could be used to the injury of the United States or to the advantage of any foreign nation." Look at 18 USC 798 which proivides that "Whoever knowingly and willfully...makes available to an unauthorized person..prejudicial to the safety or interest of the United States... concerning the communication intelligence activities of the United States..." This may be a better fit.
Washington, D.C.: Is there any existing legal basis for Assange to be prosecuted in the United States?
Stuart Slotnick: We can expect that the DOJ will charge Assange in the United States based upon the harm that he has caused to the United States and the connections that Asssange has to the USA. We await to see the chain of events that allowed Assange to receive the classified materials.
Washington, D.C.: If Assange can be prosecuted in the United States, why not the New York Times?
Stuart Slotnick: The argument is that once the information is declassified by the worlwide disclosure that it can no longer be considered to be classified.
Washington, D.C.: If the American public becomes hysterical and demands that Assange be sentenced to life in prison without parole, and if a federal judge and jury sentence him to that exactly, would President Obama still be able to pardon Assange before leaving office?
Stuart Slotnick: Presuming Assange is convicted in the United States, a Federal Judge would impose a sentence that is allowable under the law. And, any President, now or in the future, may be able to pardon him. I would not bet on it.
Virginia Beach, Va.: What happens when someone is killed or hurt (via terrorist or targeted attack) as a direct result of stolen classified/sensitive information posted by WikiLeaks? It seems that at that point Mr. Assange would be liable.
Stuart Slotnick: Depending on the connection between disclosure of the confidential information and the damage that occurs, the discloser could face potential liability.
Bowie, Md.: Why deny him bail on the charges in Sweden? And how long could he sit in jail?
Stuart Slotnick: Bail was denied based upon Assange's risk of flight. Assange will remain in jail in the UK until he is either extradited to Sweden or extradition is denied. If Assange fights extradition, he could be in the UK for a lengthy period of time.
Arlington, Va.: Has INTERPOL ever issued a warrant (or whatever they call it) for anyone accused of rape before?
Stuart Slotnick: INTERPOL recognizes felony arrest warrants by participating countries.
Rockville, Md/\.: Without diminishing the allegations of sexual assault/misconduct in Sweden, is it the usual course of practice to involve Interpol and aggressively pursue alleged offenders, or is this an extraordinary action by Sweden (presumably) due to the celebrity of the alleged offender?
Stuart Slotnick: Sex offenders are frequently sought across international boundaries. For every celebrity case that you hear of, there are many more that are unknown to the public.
Washington. D/: Is the Espionnage Act really the appropriate avenue to prosecute Assange? Some say the act is archa�c and that the Obama administration would be placed in an awkward political position using it...
Stuart Slotnick: If the acts fit within the plain language of the statute, it will be used. Although it has been the subject to criticism, we would not be surprised to see it put into play in this situation.
Washington, D.C.: Is it possible the U.S. or other governments would try to nail Assange or others who work for Wikileaks (we haven't spoken about his employees being culpable yet) on other charges not related to espionage - such as tax evasion?
Stuart Slotnick: Good question. YES. We may see that other governments allied with the USA bring charges against Assange, either related or unrelated to the disclosure of classified information.
Abuja, Nigeria: As far as I'm concerned Assange's arrest and denial of bail only goes to show that the proponents of freedom of the press around the world are not prepared to play by the rules when the table is turned on them. What makes it okay for WikiLeaks to expose perceived enemies like Iran, al Qaeda, Russia, etc., and not the allies?! This is double standard manifesting itself before our very eyes. Nevermind the sexual allegations because it is common knowledge that U.S. officials have been exploiting avenues to have him prosecuted ... They are bound to get him sooner or later anyway, for daring to do the unthinkable.
Stuart Slotnick: Your point, will be related to Assange's defense if he is ever brought to the USA to face charges. The jury will have to balance two competing and emotional appeals; one from Assange and one from the United States.
Washington, D.C.: Some years ago a French court would not send back Ira Einhorn because he was charged with capital murder, and the French would not send an accused defendant to a country that might execute him or her if found guilty. If prosecutors in America charge Assange with crimes that could carry the death penalty, would either Britain or Sweden refuse to extradite him here?
Stuart Slotnick: You are correct that the death penalty has been used as a basis for refusing extradition in the past. A standard extradition treaty provides that the crime charged in the country seeking extradition is also a crime in the country where the individual is being held pending extradition.
Harrisburg, Pa.: How much legal reach does the U.S. Justice Department have in this case?
Stuart Slotnick: That question is one that will be debated by Assange's defense team. They will argue that the USA does not have jurisdiction over him based on his lack of contact with the USA. The DOJ may argue either that Assange's contacts in the USA or the harm caused to and in the United States is enough to establish jurisdiction over Assange.

In a gnome-terminal, I started Blender (any app would do, though I didn't many others) followed by an ampersand. Nothing happened! Some minutes later, discovered it had indeed opened, but was in a different workspace than where the gnome-terminal was. Is this a bug or a "feature"? Why did this happen, and is there a way to fix it? (If it's really just a bug, I'll wait...)
This is on 11.04, with two monitors, everything straight "out of the box" no config tweaking yet. (I can't find where to tweak things...)

America's Cup officials said Tuesday the premier yacht race is on course to take place as planned despite the death of a veteran sailor from the Swedish team during training last week.
All four teams slated to duel on San Francisco Bay in powerful AC72 boats remain on board for a competition that begins in July with Louis Vuitton Cup matches, which will decide who takes on the champion Oracle crew in September.
"The America's Cup will go ahead this summer," the Cup's external affairs director Tom Eihman said during a press briefing at Pier 27 in San Francisco.
"We will see the world's best sailors racing at the highest level on the iconic San Francisco Bay."
Cup officials met with leaders of each of the four teams early on Tuesday to brief them on the make-up of a committee formed to look into the fatal accident and ways to make the 34th America's Cup safer, according to Eihman.
"There was not even a thought given this morning to doing anything but continuing apace," Eihman said of the meeting.
The review team roster included regatta director Iain Murray; Vincent Lauriot-Prevost of French multi-hull design firm Van Peteghem Lauriot Prevost; New Zealand Queens Counsel lawyer Jim Farmer, and veteran sailor John Craig.
The committee was to commence its work on Thursday after Provost and Farmer arrive in the United States, according to Murray.
"There has been a lot of sailing of AC72 yachts around the world, many hours, and there has been a huge amount of success with that," Murray said.
"These boats have exceeded all expectations and part of that is for us to review and understand and comment on how we manage this incredible speed and dynamics these boats have."
The review team will work with US Coast Guard and San Francisco police who are investigating the capsizing last week that killed a member of Artemis Racing of Sweden.
Artemis Racing member Andrew Simpson, nicknamed "Bart," died when the Swedish team's AC72 overturned while training on San Francisco Bay on Thursday.
The accident fueled concerns over the safety of the 72-foot America's Cup catamarans.
Murray said the review process will include getting safety recommendations from Artemis Racing, Emirates Team New Zealand, Luna Rossa, and defending US champions Oracle.
The sailing teams have taken a week off training out of respect for the loss and were expected to return to the Bay on Thursday.

This meme needs no title
I wasn't going to post anything today, but Nuthatch at bootstrap analysis cruelly tagged me with this meme. Here it goes.
10 years ago: In 1995 I did a mandatory and, luckily, once-in-a-lifetime 30-day stint with the Turkish Army in the extremely dull town of Burdur in Turkey (I hope my friend Zeki, who lives there, is not reading this). All day long all we did was march up and down dusty roads and pull weeds from fields planted with vegetables. To remind us that this was actually military training, not some forced gardening exercise, we were taken to a target area just once and each of us was made to shoot two bullets with ancient World War II rifles, M-somethings, that had been taken out of storage for this special occasion (they are not used for any other purpose anymore).
The only good thing that came out of those 30 long days (actually 28, because we had 2 leave days) was that I was able to retain my Turkish citizenship. Now when I go to Turkey I take two passports, one Turkish and one American. Interestingly, it wasn't until several years later when I was renewing my U.S. passport that I learned for certain that it wasn't necessarily illegal for a U.S. citizen to serve in the military of another country or to carry two passports provided that certain conditions are met.
5 years ago: I had a trip to Turkey in the summer to collect snails, otherwise, nothing too memorable seems to have happened.
1 year ago: The most memorable event of 2004 was yet another summer expedition we had in Turkey. This one was lots of fun and I still have hundreds of snail shells that I need to sort, identify and then write papers about. Also, in September we went to Canada to my niece's wedding. That was fun too.
Yesterday: Was a routine day at my desk job. Took a long walk after lunch and photographed a large turtle in the lake. Otherwise, the most exciting thing I did was subscribe to the New Scientist. Now I am looking forward to getting the fist issue. I spent the evening photographing and measuring the snail shells I have on loan from the Field Museum in Chicago. The loan expired 2 days ago, so I am desperately trying to finish what I want to do, before I get a nasty e-mail from the collection manager asking me to return the material (I hope he is not reading this either).
5 songs I know all the words to: Hmmm…I know many songs, but I don't think I know the entire words of any. But, wait, there's one! Neil Young's Till the Morning Comes: "I am gonna give you till the morning comes, till the morning comes, till the morning comes. I am only waiting till the morning comes, till the morning comes, till the morning comes." A short song, indeed.
5 snacks: Chocolate covered pecans, yogurt covered almonds, dried mango slices, marzipan, chocolate covered pecans (yes, I really like them).
5 things I'd do with $100 million: Retire! Then, I would spend the rest of my long life studying nature. I guess I'd also found a foundation to fund research on evolutionary biology and donate some money to museums.
5 places I'd run away to: Hawaii, Australia, Charles Darwin's house in Down, England and, if time travel were possible, two places in Turkey about 10,000 years ago after the ice age, but before the human assault on the environment started: the current location of Istanbul and on the west coast the area between the rivers Küçük Menderes and Büyük Menderes (the ancient Caystros and Meander, respectively).
5 things I'd never wear: Polyester shirts, a toupee (not that I need one), wool directly against my skin, because it makes me itchy, itchy, itchy…
5 favorite TV shows: I don't watch TV anymore. The last show I watched regularly was Third Rock From the Sun, and before that Seinfeld. Now, once in a while, I may watch the Simpsons. Monday nite I wanted to tape the Bob Dylan documentary on PBS, but couldn't get the VCR to receive the channel it was on and gave up. I'll wait for the DVD.
5 greatest joys: Long walks in places that I am least likely to encounter people (not that I am antisocial), cats, photography, field trips to collect snails, late summer afternoons on the deck with my wife and a bottle of beer chatting and reading light stuff, blogs mostly (we call them "beer & daer" hours, "daer" being the backward spelling of "read".)
5 favorite toys: My computer, digital camera (thinking of getting a new one), 2 microscopes (stereo and compound) and GPS receiver.
5 people I'm tagging: afarensis at afarensis, tony at milkriverblog, Alun at Alun, Henry at Webiocosm, last but not least, Pamela at Thomasburg Walks.

Southeast Texas is experiencing "dog days of summer". During this time it has been said that birds quit singing, wounds don't heal, snakes become meaner and wine becomes sour. So how did this description come to be used with this hot sultry time of year?
The term "dog days of summer" goes back to ancient times and the observance of constellations which were much easier to view in the unlit night sky. Sirius is the brightest star in the constellation Canis Major (large dog).
Ancient Egyptians called Sirius the "dog star". Its appearance in the east warned them of the rising of the river Nile each year, thereby enabling them to prepare for the inundation.
Egyptians and Romans thought this star added heat to earth during its presence overhead. In summer when it rose and set with the sun, it was felt that the rays of Sirius mingled with the sun's rays intensifying temperature.

Mood Boosting Foods
By Ana Mantica, "Eat to Beat the Blues," March/April 2010
Boost your mood with these uplifting foods.
"So this article says that you should eat whole foods then encourages consuming low fat, refined dairy? Saturated fat from grass fed animals is good, whether it's dairy or meat, as long as it's whole and organic so it retains its vitamins...
2. Go ahead: order the bagel.
In a new study in the Archives of Internal Medicine, people who for a year followed a very-low-carbohydrate diet—which allowed only 20 to 40 grams of carbs daily, about the amount in just 1⁄2 cup of rice plus one piece of bread—experienced more depression, anxiety and anger than those assigned to a low-fat, high-carb diet that focused on low-fat dairy, whole grains, fruit and beans. Researchers suspect that carbs promote the production of serotonin, a feel-good brain chemical. Also, the challenge of following such a restrictive low-carb diet for a full year may have negatively impacted mood, says study author Grant D. Brinkworth, Ph.D.

College Hockey:Minutemen Edge Catamounts In Pre-Holiday Battle
Big Edge In Shots Not Enough For UVM
BURLINGTON, Vt. — In what has become a pre-Thanksgiving tradition, Massachusetts skated with Vermont on the Tuesday prior to the holiday. The Minutemen hung tough, scoring first and ultimately escaping with a 2-1 win at Gutterson Fieldhouse.
Freshman Chris Davis broke the tie with 2:57 to play, and goaltender Jon Quick was outstanding in net for UMass, making 29 saves while helping to hand No. 5 UVM its third loss in five games after starting 7-0.
On the winning goal, Davis put a pinballing puck past Vermont's Joe Fallon (nine saves), for his third of the year, assisted by John Wessbecker and Stephen Werner.
The Minutemen did exactly what they needed to do, beating the fast-skating Cats. They slowed the game down — playing a trapping style, clogging the neutral zone, and not allowing the Cats' offense second and third shots on goal.
"We're on the road, and UVM plays at a high tempo," said UMass coach Don "Toot" Cahoon. "We knew that they were gonna come at us. We felt that we just had to be positionally pretty sound. I thought, for the most part, our guys did a good job.
"We're working on just pulling ourselves together," he said. "We're just trying to gather ourselves and come up with a game plan and a way we play that can be successful. It's nice to see we can get something done in a tough situation."
UMass got on the board first, with 1:30 left in the period, as freshman Scott Crowder caught the puck above the right circle. Fallon got a piece of Crowder's low slapshot, but not enough, as it dribbled across the goal line for the 1-0 lead.
The Cats answered as the period wound down. Torrey Mitchell stripped a UMass skater inside the blue line and went alone on freshman Jon Quick. Mitchell made a move and stuffed it in at the left post with two seconds left in the period. Matt Syroczynski assisted on Mitchell's fourth of the year.
After a sluggish start to the period for UVM, as UMass controlled most of the play in the first 10 minutes, the Cats turned it on, ending up with a 9-2 advantage in shots on goal.
The deadlock continued through the second period. Vermont again carried the play, but, like in the first, wasn't able to develop much flow. UMass stymied the Cats' offense as Quick made nine more saves in the period, including at least six nice ones from close range. Quick stonewalled Mitchell, Peter Lenes, and Baron Becker right in front of the paint as UVM was buzzing in the zone midway through the period.
"Credit their goaltender," said Vermont coach Kevin Sneddon. "It was on our scouting report, He's a good goalie. Unfortunately, I think we lost that battle tonight. He played better than our goaltender. He did a great job of making the first save."
The teams traded the only two power plays of the game early in the third. UMass was unable to get past the nation's second-best penalty kill, but the nation's sixth-best power play couldn't break through UMass, either.
Fallon was called upon to keep the game tied, a little over midway in the period. He made a nice poke check on freshman Cory Quirk, then another on Quirk, who was set up in the slot with a pass from behind the net. Vermont had a few quality chances of its own before the game-winner by Davis but couldn't find daylight behind Quick.
The Cats pulled Fallon after a timeout with 1:14 remaining, but the UMass defense held the fort as Vermont pressed for the equalizer.
UVM dominated the final shot totals 30-11, despite the loss.
"It's frustrating, obviously," Sneddon said. "We didn't come out to play very well in the first period … we just didn't play well at all. I thought we did a better job in the second and third period of skating, getting to loose pucks — doing things that make us successful. We just didn't have any finish to our game tonight.
"That play should have never happened," Sneddon said of a mistake made by his defense on the go-ahead marker. It was a harmless play that turned into a good play by them."
UMass (3-7-0, 2-5-0 Hockey East) next plays Colorado College on Friday and Denver on Saturday, while Vermont (9-3-0, 3-3-0) heads to Maine for a big No. 4 versus No. 5 matchup Sunday afternoon.
"These guys were just waiting to break out," Sneddon said of UMass. "They played a great game against BU (in a 4-2 win at home last Saturday). They've played some good hockey and just haven't found a way to win. And now they are starting to believe in each other. You kinda just see it, they are starting to gel a little bit more. I think this is gonna be a pretty dangerous team in this league."

It took a ram raid to end a quarter of a century of trading for a Bradford shopkeeper.
Now, after more than two months of repairs, Delph Hill Newsagents in Woodside Road, Wyke, is set to re-open on Saturday.
More than £30,000 of damage was caused to the premises when the raiders used a car to smash their way in on April 17 to steal cigarettes and alcohol. The raiders had carried out a separate raid on a Londis mini-market in Bradford Road, Liversedge, an hour earlier, also causing extensive damage.
Tina Maisuria, 31, whose dad, Umak-ant, owns Delph Hill Newsagents, said the crime had had a devastating impact on her family She said: "It's not just the financial side, but the distress it has caused to my dad.
"He has worked there each day of his life for 25 years. He had not once stopped trading in that time.
"The level of damage caused by this mindless act has had a terrible impact on him because he is so used to being at the shop."
Miss Maisuria said the closure had also inconvenienced the shop's regular customers, who had been asking when it was going to reopen.
She said: "I know that our customers have had to go further afield and they have been looking forward to us reopening."
The ram raid caused massive damage to the shop front, ceiling and counter.
Miss Maisuria, who lives in Gomersal, said it had taken weeks to sort the cost of the repairs out with insurance loss adjusters and the family was looking forward to re-opening.
She said: "The whole family has rallied round to get it to this stage where it is ready to start trading again."

A recent report to MUFON, the Mutual UFO Network, comes from Rogers, Oregon, and refers to an incident that occurred around 7:15PM on November 1st, 1012, when an entire family witnessed an extraordinary sight.
The father began the story, "the UFO appeared to the naked eye as a soundless spinning flame. When we zoomed in on it with a camera, it had more structure, but was totally unfamiliar. It was not like anything any of us had ever seen before."
He went on, "My son initially reported that he saw a strange light outside. The entire family rushed outside and we saw a second light fly overhead about five minutes later. I grabbed my digital video camera before the third one flew over five minutes later."
The video that he took captured the third object quite well. "When we magnified the images you can see that the flames are definitely not normal. They appear to have a square structure around them. We discussed what it could possibly be. It was obviously not a plane as there no flashing strobe lights like you see on aircraft and it couldn't have been a flare because it didn't fall like you would expect a flare to."
The witness uploaded both video and still images to the MUFON website on November 2nd. He explained, "The date stamp on the video is off by one day. This actually occurred on November 1, 2012.I recorded the video with my iPhone, as I displayed the original video on my TV."
Each witness sighting reported to MUFON adds to the knowledge base of what exactly UFOs look like or how they behave. This family in Rogers, Oregon, did their part to increase that knowledge. MUFON exists to maintain a database of as many sightings as possible, and to make the information available to the public. In return members of the public are encouraged to report unusual sightings to MUFON which will examine and analyze all the reports. Their conclusion is that the majority are in fact alien spacecraft.
The family in Rogers, Oregon, truly believes that they had an encounter with a UFO. "What other explanation could there possible be?" the witness wondered. "If you look at other videos and photographs in the MUFON archives, the description of what we saw is not far off others. They nearly all describe strange UFO lights as being 'bright' or the actual object as being 'without a sound'." leading one to wonder whether Rogers, Oregon, will be the next bedrock of UFO activities.
For those who absolutely refuse to accept the witness' version of events, maybe a video would help. Both the video and still photos of the video can be found within the MUFON archives. The time stamp may be off by one day as the event occurred on November 1, while the uploading was done on November 2, a day later. It is worth checking out.

Eyayou Leads Men's Soccer to 2-1 Win Over Winnipeg
The USF men's soccer team ended the 2011 season on a high note, as the Cougars overcame a 1-0 first half deficit to defeat the University of Winnipeg, 2-1 in the third-place game of the USF Classic, held this weekend at USF Field.
Fans were treated to a match full of fouls (13), yellow cards (4) and attacking---the two sides combined for 21 shots---with the Cougars firing 14 total attempts.
"Winnipeg is a physical team and the first half was a battle," USF head coach Paul Bennett said after the match. "I told the guys at half (down 1-0) that we don't want to end the season this way and to put the pressure on in the second. I think we did, and as a result we got two goals to get the win."
The Wesmen set a fast and physical tempo early, as they pressured the USF back end relentlessly, creating multiple scoring opportunities and picking up the match's first yellow card at the 15 minute mark. The Cougars would counter with a good attack of their own in the middle of the first half, an attack which included a point-black shot by junior Connor Shefte that sailed just north of the crossbar.
Winnipeg took the lead in the 43rd minute when Adam Bromley sent a crossing pass to the front of the goal where Sean Dong was waiting and he touched it home to give the Wesmen a 1-0 lead they would carry into the half.
The Cougars equalized when Shefte sent a ball to the left side of the penalty area, and immediately cut toward the net. Senior Amare Eyayou settled it, and sent a quick pass back to Shefte, who blasted the ball past Winnipeg keeper Tyson Farago.
"When we play together as we are supposed to, that is what happens," Bennett said. "We create opportunities and we tuck them away."
Where Shefte buried his chance at net, Eyayou was left wanting.
The Cougars continued to press in the second half. Several times it was just inches that made the difference- one shot glanced off the crossbar and a couple others were just wide - but Farago survived them all.
In the closing minutes of the match, Eyayou displayed the speed and technical footwork that has made him the most exciting player on Coach Bennett's roster the past two seasons.
Eyayou blew past the Wesmen defense and fired a low ball that Farago stopped but could not contain. Eyayou collected the rebound and one-timed it into the net with 67 seconds remaining for the fourth game-winning goal of his career.
"The goal was a team effort," Eyayou said. "But, it was my last game and I wanted to finish in a memorable way."
With the win, the Cougars finish the season with an overall record 7-9-1 while the Wesmen fell to 13-3-1.
Eyayou led USF with five shots on the day, including two on frame. Senior keeper Adam Wemhoff made three saves between the pipes for the Cougars.
The win caps the end of the collegiate careers for five USF seniors: Amare Eyayou, Zach Jurgens, Cody Lutes, Barry Owen and Adam Wemhoff.

Jim's Famous Hamburger
Most summer grilling is done for large groups and as such is not too fancy – burgers, hot dogs, steaks, and the occassional kabob. For this recipe I've borrowed a tip from my good friend Jim Honniball – a way to dress up a simple hamburger.
Everybody should have a friend like Jim. He can swim a mile, bike thirty, and still have the energy to cook up a batch of his legendary hamburgers for his friends. Jim learned to cook from his mom and loves nothing more than to see everyone's delighted faces as they bite into something delicious he's prepared. Especially satisfying after a hard day of body-boarding and surfing are his hamburgers which are seasoned with fresh rosemary from the garden and A1 sauce.
At the time of this writing I did not have a grill, so to simulate the high heat grilling environment I went to Williams-Sonoma and bought a heavy-duty cast iron grill pan for the task. They also sell calphalon pans (for about 5 times the price) but the calphalon simply cannot hold the high heat that cast iron can to match the heat of a real grill. Eventually the heat will warp the caphalon. The brand I picked up was "Lodge" for about $22. They also carry Le Creuset for somewhat more.
The recipe:
- 1 lb hamburger meat
- 2 heaping tablespoons of chopped fresh rosemary leaves (not the stem)
- 2 Tbsp A1 sauce
- Salt and pepper to taste (perhaps half a teaspoon of each)
- Buns
- Lettuce
- Tomatoes, sliced
- Onions, sliced
- Avocado, peeled, pitted and sliced
- Mayonaise, ketchup, mustard
Mix the rosemary and A1 sauce into the hamburger meat, distributing evenly. Add salt and fresh ground pepper. Form out the hamburger patties. If the meat is low-fat, you may want to add some grapeseed oil or olive oil to the mixture, or after the patties are made (but before cooked), rub some oil over them. Place on a hot grill or grill pan. If you are indoors with a grill pan, be sure to use your stove fan. If on grill pan, lower the heat to medium high. Grill on one side until you can see the juice begin to run at the surface. Flip over and grill on the other side, again until you can see some juice coming through. If you wish, grill the buns on remaining grill surface. Onions can be either served fresh with the hamburger or sautéed a little in olive oil.
Serve burgers with lettuce, tomatoes, onions, avocado, mayo, ketchup, and or mustard. (For the low-carb version skip the bun.)
Serves 3 to 4.

London 2012 Olympics day two weather could be wet - with rain and hailstorms
10:46 29 July 2012
PA Wire
Day two of the Olympics could be hit by the return of wet weather.
Forecasters say there will be heavy showers across central and east London, with hailstones also a possibility.
The change in weather follows the wettest April and June on record and a rainy start to July, although the past few days have seen sunshine and high temperatures.
Sports fans visiting the Olympic Park in Stratford can expect a dry and sunny start to the day, before the clouds start to build up, forecasters said.
Paul Mott, senior forecaster with MeteoGroup, the weather division of the Press Association, said: "There will be some showers around in the afternoon, and some of them look like being quite heavy.
"It looks like there could be some thunder and even hailstones. It's also going to be a fairly cold day compared to recent days, with highs of 20 degrees.
"Although there will be a lot of rain around, we're not expecting the day to be a washout, and it looks like we'll see a return to drier conditions on Monday."
Other Olympic venues are also forecast to be hit by adverse weather, with the Met Office predicting heavy showers at Wimbledon, where the tennis event is taking place, from around 1pm and lasting through the afternoon.
Elsewhere, the archery at Lord's Cricket Ground will be affected by heavy rain in the afternoon, the Met Office said. Meanwhile the cycling event will experience some lighter rain.

Spring 2014
50th Anniversary of the Civil Rights Act of 1964:
Dorie Ladner, Charlie Cobb, and Charles McLaurin
The keynote is open to the public. For more information about Geneseo's King Commemoration, see http://mlk.geneseo.edu/ or contact Emilye Crosby (email@example.com).
This event is sponsored by the Office of the Provost, the Africana/Black Studies Program, the Xerox Center for Multicultural Teacher Education, the Office of Multicultural Programming and Services, Women's Studies, History Department, and the Office of the President.
Martin Luther King, Jr. Commemoration
Geneseo's Commemoration of Martin Luther King, Jr., is guided by the following understanding of King's life and legacy.
Martin Luther King, Jr., is the most visible leader of the modern Civil Rights Movement. He came to prominence during the 1955 Montgomery Bus Boycott after he was drafted as a reluctant leader. In the process, he began to develop the ideas of nonviolent resistance-- as tactic and philosophy--that are closely associated with him. An effective and charismatic speaker, King was skilled at reaching multiple audiences and drawing on and synthesizing ideas from multiple traditions. Decades after his death, many of us are still moved by his words and vision. Unfortunately, however, our culture has done much to sanitize King. We have frozen him in 1963 giving his famous "I Have a Dream" speech. We forget that when King was assassinated, he was under attack for speaking publicly against the United States' role in the Vietnam war and that he was organizing an interracial Poor People's Campaign intended to bring assertive nonviolent resistance to the nation's capitol. When our political and civic leaders draw on King's words and legacy, they tend to emphasize his advocacy of nonviolence and his dream for a "color-blind" society. They ignore his later calls for affirmative action and the redistribution of wealth. They obscure his criticism of the United States as a purveyor of violence around the world.
In honoring Martin Luther King, it is important that we remember the full range of his social justice work and the ways that he evolved over the course of his life. We must also understand that King did not create the Civil Rights Movement. Rather, an extensive mass movement propelled him forward. It is really meaningless, then, to memorialize King separate from the larger struggle and the work and commitment of countless women and men. In joining people across the country in honoring King, the Geneseo community is particularly concerned with recognizing and acknowledging King's enduring commitment to social justice and to the ways that King's leadership reflects a broader tradition of struggle.
The Civil Rights Movement has been called the "Borning Struggle," the inspiration and model for the many progressive movements that emerged out of that movement. Geneseo's King Commemoration honors and acknowledges the individual contributions of Martin Luther King and the expansive movement for social justice that he was a part of and which continues today.
Martin Luther King, Jr., Commemoration committee:
Catherine Adams, Sue Ann Brainard, Emilye Crosby, Cynthia Hawkins, Fatima Johnson, Susan Norman.

Thanks Maric. Just keep doing what you love.
Congratulations Lon,
It's inspirational and encouraging to see someone persevere with faith in their own talent and willingness to share. Hopefully one day I'll join you in the Winner's Circle.
:-) When you get my age Sandy you find yourself saying, "What have I got to lose?" a lot. I have large friend and fan bases on FaceBook, Reverbnation, MySpace, etc. so I made shameless appeals to listen to the songs in the competition and vote for mine if they thought it was the best. That didn't take 'balls' but it did take a lot of mouse clicks and separate 'thank you' notes. Hope you enjoyed Bernice. :-)
Congratulations, Lon! You have more balls than me.

Yes! I (and my song, Bernice, has just won First Prize in the OpenMic.US Singer-Songwriter competition! I'm so jazzed I don't know what to say! You can hear if free at the competition site, or my Reverbnation page or even (PLease) buy it at CD Baby or Amazon ... ah... just listen to it an be happy for me. I just turned 65!
Okay fellow So. California Players... I entered a songwriting contest with my song "Bernice" and I'm not too proud to ask for you to go to the link and vote for me. http://openmicus.competitionalley.com I'm in 5th place at the moment so just scroll down till you see "Lon Milo DuQuette" . You can listen to "Bernice" and even watch a video of it... but please, if you like it, cast your vote for me. Thanks :-)
Fellow So. CA artists ... might get a kick out of these articles out today in the OC Register and the OC Weekly... if you can, won't you please come to my show Friday March 9th at the Chance Theater in Anaheim Hills?
Walter, I am new to both as well. Relatively so anyways. I know I need help to play better, finding the help is a bit difficult as I am unemployed and I don't drive. It has become an obsession though, wanting to be able to play and play well.

Summoning Familiars
Using the Summoning skill, you'll find that there are a few familiars that might be useful for training your Cooking. Of particular note is the fruit bat, whose flying ability will fill its inventory with fruit while you're in Karamja. This is a great way to get all the fruit you need for all those gnome cocktails.
Preparing Sinew (for Crossbow Strings)
Crossbows require a tougher string than flax can be spun into, so it is most common to use sinew. Sinew can be harvested by Cooking beef or bear meat over a range. When you choose to cook beef or bear meat on a range, you will be presented with the choice of either Cooking it into a delicious meal, or drying it out into sinew. You only need level 1 Cooking to prepare sinew.
|Image:cooking range.gif
Once sinew has been prepared, it can be spun into a crossbow string by using it with a spinning wheel.
Cooking boosts
|The Cooking cape, Cooking cape (t) or Cooking master cape can be used to temporarily increase your skill level by 1. To do this, equip one of the capes, right-click it and choose Boost.
|You can make the different types of ales by fermenting various ingredients. One of these drinks is the level 54 Chef's delight, which will raise your Cooking level by 1-5 (based on your normal Cooking level). For more information please see the Cooking Methods section.
Evil stew of DOOM!
Those who have started the Recipe for Disaster quest, and have got to the stage where they need to save Evil Dave will learn of the totally evil and totally spicy stew.
To get stew, you will need to get an empty bowl, fill it with water and add a potato. When you have done this, continue by adding some cooked meat, and then cook the stew on a range to complete it.
Now you have normal stew, it is time to spice things up a bit! If you head to Evil Dave's BASEMENT OF DOOM!, you will find Evil Dave himself, along with many hell-rats.
Using your cat (or soon to become hellcat), order it to chase the hellrats. When it successfully captures one, they will drop a spice shaker, one of 4 colours, which may have up to 4 doses of that colour in them.
How it works
You can use a maximum of 3 doses of a colour in a stew, and the colours/doses will determine what the stew will do. To work out how the stew may effect you, you need to get the number of doses you put in, and multiply it by 2. This is the maximum you will gain or lose, please note that it is up to this number. For example, if the number is 6 you may get 4.
Of course, this means if you are lucky, you could temporarily boost any of the skills mentioned above by 6! (Or, if you are unlucky, temporarily lower the skill by 6.)
If you want an extremely random stew, try putting 3 doses of each colour in and see what happens!
Iron Spit
This piece of equipment can be used to cook some meats on an open fire. You can cook rabbit, bird, beast and chompy meats on the spit.
Once you have some raw meat, use the spit with the raw meat. Then light a fire and use the skewered meat on the fire. Jubbly meat can be cooked on the spits outside Rantz's cave and Jiggig.

Raw Rabbit
|Skewered Meat
Cooking Gauntlets
Cooking gauntlets can be obtained as a reward from the Family Crest quest. These Cooking gauntlets give you an increased chance of successfully cooking certain types of fish.
Pies that don't just heal...

|Cooking Level
|Constitution Level
|Other Effects
Mud pie
|Halves target's run energy
Garden pie
Fish pie
Admiral pie
Wild pie
|Raw bear meat
Raw chompy meat
Raw rabbit meat
Summer pie
|Heals 10% run energy
Boosting Experience Gain
|The pendant of Cooking and the prized pendant of Cooking can boost your XP gain depending on your level, the prized pendant providing a larger boost. To activate your bonus XP, you must right-click the pendants and choose 'Gain xp'. Once the bonus XP has been added to your bonus XP pool, the pendant becomes a cosmetic item.
|Each individual item in the sous chef's set (jacket, mitts, shoes, toque and trousers) grant 1% extra XP each. A complete set will grant an additional 1% XP bringing the total to 6% for the whole set.
Players in a clan with a citadel will find that contributing to their clan's resource pool will earn bonus XP that can be used on the surface world.

Alexia Foundation, Open Society Calling for Submissions
The Alexia Foundation and the Open Society Foundations separately announced calls for submissions from photographers yesterday.
The Alexia Foundation issued a call for entries for its 2014 Women's Initiative Grant, which will provide a $25,000 grant for the production of a project "on a significant issue involving and affecting women," the foundation said in its announcement.
"Unlike the first Women's Initiative grant, which specifically focused on abuse of women in the United States, this call for entries is intended to permit the photographer to propose a serious documentary photographic or multimedia project encompassing any issue involving women anywhere in the world," the foundation says.
The deadline for grant applications is June 30, 2014. More details are available at the Alexia Foundation website.
Meanwhile, The Open Society Documentary Photography Project is calling for photo projects for an upcoming group exhibition on surveillance. The exhibition will include the work of five or six photographers, according to Open Society Foundations (OSF).
The deadline for applications is May 1, 2014.
"We are seeking photo-based projects that explore surveillance-related issues from a variety of perspectives. We encourage applicants to interpret the theme broadly," OSF said in the announcement.
Called Moving Walls 22: Watching You, Watching Me: Photography in an Age of Surveillance, the exhibition is scheduled to run from October 29, 2014, to May 2015 at Open Society Foundations–New York. See the OSF website for complete application information.
