Yum!! I made this to use on Greek Penne Pasta (6 WW Points) (greek penne) and it turned out wonerful!!! I did add about 1/2 pack of stevia though, because i like things to be more on the sweet side. It turned out perfect though! thanks!!
Enjoyed this dressing! Paired it with a Greek seasoning mix; Greek Seasoning Mix. Grilled up some beef cutlets with the seasoning on it, feta cheese, Dole's italian lettuce, and poured on the dressing. Made a great Greek Salad.
Great! This was my first attempt to make Greek dressing and I don't think I would change anything. It went very well with feta cheese.
Followed as written, for the most part. I probably used about a teaspoon or so of oregano, and shook well. Simple and delicious over a salad with black olives and feta cheese.
Absolutely outstanding - what a simple delish salad dressing - definately a keeper !
Great recipe!
My boyfriend and I both found this to be way too oily. All we could taste was the olive oil. I tried to doctor up the recipe by adding more vinegar, but it was unsalvageable. If you like a very oily dressing, go for this one!
Loved it!--Its my new favorite sugar-free dressing
This is a keeper. Enjoyed by all.Thanks

I doctored a bit but this was absolutely awesome!!! And as for being dry by "chef's" comments? I totally disagree! I added more cheese, spinach, garlic salt, and parsley and MAN were my taste buds satisfied! Delicious!
I found that the mix of ingredients is very nice but the result is a little bit dry. I would suggest to use some cream (creme fraiche would be awesome, but it is pricy and sometimes difficult to find) as well as ricotta:)

I do love Xen as a product, but sometimes, I really hate it. I'm having some networking issues with one of my Xen clients sitting on a Debian 6 machine VM (so Xen is running inside a Debian 6 virtual machine). As always, the issue is bridging. Here are the commands I've ran so far to set it up. Believe me, I've rerun them again and again trying to see what the problem was.
xen-create-image --hostname=CN01061 --dir=/opt/xen --force \
--size=10gb --image=full --swap=2gb --memory=1gb --dhcp \
--dist=squeeze --arch=i386 \
--mirror=ftp://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/ \
--passwd --install-method=debootstrap
##### This is my network script
cat >> /etc/xen/xend-config.sxp << 'EOF'
(network-script network-bridge-wrapper)
##### This is the script itself
cat > /etc/xen/scripts/network-bridge-wrapper << 'EOF'
/etc/xen/scripts/network-bridge "$@" netdev=eth0
/usr/sbin/brctl addbr intercomm0
/sbin/ifconfig intercomm0 192.168.198.1
##### Make it executable
chmod 0755 /etc/xen/scripts/network-bridge-wrapper
##### Edit /etc/default/xendomains
#XENDOMAINS_RESTORE=true <<-- the default value
XENDOMAINS_RESTORE=false # <<-- my value
#XENDOMAINS_SAVE=/var/lib/xen/save <<-- the default value
XENDOMAINS_SAVE="" # <<-- my value
##### Add intercomm0 interface to CN01061 (DomU client)
cat >> /etc/network/interfaces << 'EOF'
# intercomm0 interface
auto eth1
iface eth1 inet static
address 192.168.198.2
netmask 255.255.255.0
##### Finally, the config file /etc/xen/CN01061.cfg
dhcp = 'dhcp'
vif = [ 'bridge=eth0','bridge=intercomm0' ]
So, to summarize what's going on, the DomU client (CN01061) receives an IP via DHCP on its eth0 interface just fine, and has a static address on its eth1 interface (192.168.198.2) for communication between itself and Dom0. Dom0 has bridging setup between its eth0 interface and its intercomm0 interface (defined in /etc/xen/CN01061.cfg)
The bridge is configured correctly I believe:
root@dom0:~# brctl show
bridge name bridge id STP enabled interfaces
eth0 8000.080027eeef71 no peth0
intercomm0 8000.feffffffffff no vif1.1
The reason I'm smashing my head against the wall is because even though the DomU client receives an IP via DHCP, it's not reachable via SSH or ping from any other computer on the network. The DomU itself can't reach anywhere outside either; it can't even ping the gateway.
Any ideas? xen-hypervisor is 4.0.1-4, xen-tools is 4.2-1, and xen-utils is 4.0.1-4.

Driftin' Blues
|"Driftin' Blues"
|Single by Johnny Moore's Three Blazers
|December 1945
|10-inch 78 rpm record
|Los Angeles, September 14, 1945
|Philo (no. 112)
"Driftin' Blues" or "Drifting Blues" is a blues standard that was recorded by Johnny Moore's Three Blazers in 1945. The song is a slow blues and features Charles Brown's smooth, soulful vocals and piano. It was one of the biggest blues hits of the 1940s and "helped define the burgeoning postwar West Coast blues style".[1] "Driftin' Blues" has been interpreted and recorded by numerous artists in a variety of styles. The Blues Foundation Hall of Fame and the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame have acknowledged the song's influence and lasting popularity.
In an interview, Brown described "Driftin' Blues" as "the first song that I wrote down and tried to sing".[2] Music critic Dave Marsh adds that Brown wrote it while still in high school.[3] Rhythm and blues singer Johnny Otis, who was in Bardu Ali's band with Brown in Los Angeles in the early 1940s, recalled that Brown was reluctant to record the song.[4] Brown's inspiration for the tune was a gospel song his grandmother had taught him and he felt conflicted about mixing gospel and blues; Otis and others helped convince him to go ahead with it.[4] Another earlier blues song, "Walking and Drifting Blues", recorded by Bumble Bee Slim in 1935, uses the line "Now I'm driftin', like a ship without a sail". Music writer Bryan Grove notes that Brown's original working title for the song was the same and although he was influenced by Slim's lyrics, the songs are otherwise dissimilar.[5]
After his stint with Ali, Brown joined guitarist Johnny Moore and bassist Eddie Williams. As Johnny Moore's Three Blazers, they were modeled on the Nat King Cole Trio (Moore's brother, Oscar Moore, was Cole's guitarist).[6] They became a popular attraction at Hollywood-area night clubs, leading their style to be called "club blues".[7] In contrast to the jump blues popular in dance halls, the style was suited to a more intimate musical setting.[8]
Recording and release[edit]
"Driftin' Blues" was a feature of Johnny Moore's Three Blazers' club repertoire. Their performances of the song were well received and led to a recording contract with Philo (soon to become Aladdin) Records.[9] During their first recording session on September 14, 1945, they recorded four songs.[10] To round out the trio's sound, Brown invited Otis to sit in on drums.[10] Otis recalled for "Driftin' Blues", Brown used a different approach: "he poured his heart into the record—not in the Nat Cole manner—but in that deep and soulful style that soon had many young R&B singers trying to sound like him".[11] Brown's vocal has also been described as "plaintive",[12] "lush, mellifluous",[1] and having a "laconic grace and soothing timbre".[13]
The song follows a twelve-bar blues chord progression and is performed at a moderately slow tempo (72 beats per minute) in the key of E (notated in 12
8 time).[14] The instrumentation, including Moore's electric guitar solo, is understated and reflects the influence of the post-World War II cool jazz movement.[15] Brown described it as "a kind of melancholy type of blues, with feeling" that allowed him to tell more of a story than traditional blues.[15] Although the lyrics deal with lost love, they also reflect the alienation felt by many southern African Americans in post-war American northern and western cities:[16]
Well, I'm drifting and I'm drifting, like a ship out on the sea
Drifting and I'm drifting, like a ship out on the sea
Well, I ain't got nobody, in this world to care for me
The song is credited to Brown, Moore, and Williams, although several commentaries discuss it as Brown's composition.[17] According to Brown, Moore's and Williams' names were added without his consent and being unfamiliar with copyright law, did not challenge it.[18] He also claimed that the group signed away their financial interest in the song for $800 and a vague promise of a share in future revenues by Philo Records.[19] Despite becoming one of the biggest R&B hits of the 1940s, the group never received any additional compensation.[16] Brown called it "the biggest mistake we ever made in our lives".[19]
"Driftin' Blues" became a hit, spending twenty-three weeks on the Billboard Most-Played Juke Box Race Records chart.[20] The song reached number two and "emerged [as] one of the top selling black records in 1945 and 1946".[9] The song appears on numerous Brown compilations, including the Philo/Aladdin years compilations The Complete Aladdin Recordings of Charles Brown and Driftin' Blues: The Best of Charles Brown.[21] It is also included on many various artists blues collections, such as Martin Scorsese Presents the Blues: A Musical Journey and The Blues: A Smithsonian Collection of Classic Blues Singers box sets.[21]
Recognition and legacy[edit]
"Driftin' Blues" was inducted into Blues Hall of Fame in 1989 in the "Classics of Blues Recording" category, which noted that it was "one of the records that helped define the burgeoning postwar West Coast style of smooth 'lounge blues'".[1] In 1995, it was included in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame list of "500 Songs That Shaped Rock and Roll".[22] During his career, Brown re-recorded the song and variations on it several times.[21] In 1969, an updated version "came off as new, thanks to Earl Hooker's inspired slide work", according to biographer Sebastian Danchin.[23] It appears on the Bluesway Records' album Legend!
The song became a blues standard and numerous renditions have been performed and recorded by a variety of artists.[24] Some follow the original arrangement, while others interpreted it differently.[17] As early as 1946, a young Ray Charles was one who played it regularly.[25] He recalled, "Charles Brown was a powerful influence on me in the early part of my career, especially when I was struggling down in Florida. I made many a dollar doing my imitation of his 'Drifting Blues'. That was a hell of a number".[25] In 1950, Lightnin' Hopkins recorded a different arrangement of the song, accompanied only by his amplified guitar (John Lee Hooker made a similar adaptation in 1961). Billy Eckstine recorded it in 1959 for the album Basie/Eckstine Incorporated and Chuck Berry recorded his interpretation for his 1960 album Rockin' at the Hops.
"Driftin' Blues" entered the charts again in 1968 when Bobby "Blue" Bland recorded it. His version reached number 23 during a stay of eleven weeks in the Billboard R&B chart.[26] Bland's version also made an appearance in the Billboard Pop chart at number 96.[26] The Paul Butterfield Blues Band recorded an extended version, titled "Driftin' and Driftin', with a horn section for their third album, The Resurrection of Pigboy Crabshaw, in 1967. They also performed it at the Monterey Pop Festival in 1967 and Woodstock in 1969. A live version by Albert King, featuring an extended guitar solo, was recorded at the Fillmore Auditorium in 1968, which was released in 1990 on Thursday Night in San Francisco. Eric Clapton recorded several versions of the song, including a group arrangement for his live 1975 album E. C. Was Here and a solo acoustic piece (as "Driftin'") for his 1994 album From the Cradle.[27] In 1997, American R&B and boogie-woogie pianist and singer Little Willie Littlefield recorded a version for his album The Red One.

See our site http://www.mennoniteusa.org and enter any search to see the results page. I may have to remove the title display from this template page altogether. (I've tried just entering static <h1> content there instead of PHP and it still repeats).
Here is what I've got in the PHP template file (through the Header section):
Template Name: better-search-template
<?php get_header(); ?>
<?php if (have_posts()) : while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>
<div id="title">

I am new to Subversion, just recently installed it on our server. I imported a existing web project we have been working on. I am able to check out files edit them update them and commit them. Everything seems OK in subversion. If I login to my repository in a browser it will show me my changes in the code.
But it does not change the original web project folder that imported. It should show it right? Am I missing a step?

Who is Chi Chi Gonzalez?
He's a pitcher I only really knew because of his incredible name (and seeing it a few times on prospect lists)… I knew almost nothing about this guy. So instead of doing any research or pounding the Fangraphs, I decided to go into this week's Pitcher Profile blinded. I'm going into it like walking into a crowded room, desperately yelling "Chi Chi?! Chi Chi!??!?!"
And honestly, I wouldn't have broken down his debut against the Red Sox on Saturday had it not been a no-hit bid into the 6th. Debut bias alert! "JB, you got suckered in…" Darn tootin'! But I was unable to watch the start live, so even though I figured there was some smoke and mirrors going on, you never really know until you sit down and watch a guy to see how he looked. So alas, here's how I saw Chi Chi's Major League debut:Please, blog, may I have some more?

Cutting inflation adjustments and capping wage and salary
increases has helped the Central Otago District Council trim
a potential average district rate rise of about 5.9% to 5.2%.
However, council corporate services manager Susan Finlay
warned councillors yesterday there was some risk involved
with such a ''lean'' budget.
The council's long-term plan had indicated a rise of just
over 7% but staff had worked to bring that down. She said
most savings had come from taking out inflation adjustments
but the biggest saving overall had come from capping wage and
salary rises for this year and next year.
While staff would still get a pay rise, it would be lower
than planned.
The intention, after the next election, was to use technology
such as tablet computers to view agendas and other documents,
saving about $40,000 in photocopying, she said.
However, rentals of district assets were down and the council
faced a significant increase in insurance costs. Council
chief executive Phil Melhopt said the budget would ''make it
pretty difficult ... trying to deliver what the financial
strategy says and keep the level of service''.
Deputy mayor Neil Gillespie said the only thing left to
change in order to cut rates was the level of service.
''You've done what you've done and trimmed it [the budget] to
the bone; the only thing left to give is the level of service
... but people don't say what they want less of, only what
they want more of.''
Mrs Finlay said savings had also been made by combining the
roles of the Roxburgh visitor information centre, library and
council service centre, which operated from the same
building. Other savings were gained by changes in IT and the
funding of depreciation in the roading budget. Mrs Finlay
said the Maniototo, Cromwell and Vincent community boards
were yet to consider their ward component of rates so the
average figure of 5.2% could change.

Stanford University
If you are interested in visiting locations of higher education, Palo Alto is definitely the de facto old school college campus in the United States. Not only is Stanford one of the best universities in the country, but its landscape and architecture is overwhelming.
Palm Drive, the Clark Center, Stanford Stadium, Hoover Tower, and the Old Union Building are all locations that you will enjoy looking at!
Have a great time and enjoy!

Stanford University
Leland Stanford Junior University, is commonly known as Stanford University or just Stanford. It was founded in 1885 by the former governor of California Leland Stanford in memory of his son who had recently died of typhoid. The university opened in 1891 with 15 professors and 559 students including future president Herbert Hoover. Today Stanford's enrollment is 6,700 undergraduates and 8,000 graduate students.
Campus landmarks that we visited on our short trip include the Main Quad, Memorial Church, Green Library, and the Hoover Tower. The Main Quad is one of the few remaining structures from the original university construction not destroyed by the 1906 or 1989 earthquakes. Memorial Church is the most impressive building on campus with its stained glass and huge mosaics. The original building of the Green Library was built in 1910 and is known as the comical name of the Bing Wing. Hoover Tower stands 285 feet tall, is part of the Hoover Institution on War, Revolution and Peace, and was completed in 1941, a reproduction of the cathedral tower at Salamanca.
Other famous buildings on campus include the Cantor Center for Visual Arts and art gallery, the Stanford Mausoleum and the Angel of Grief, the Rodin sculpture garden, the Papua New Guinea Sculpture Garden, the Arizona Cactus Garden, the Stanford University Arboretum, Frank Lloyd Wright's 1937 Hanna-Honeycomb House, and the 1919 Lou Henry and Herbert Hoover House.
Stanford University
Stanford University is known as a challenging and prominent research university. The school is well known for a challenging curriculum and strong research base. It's research focuses on the sciences and it's location in Silicon Valley makes it a strong player in the field of technological advancement (the founder of Google is a graduate). The student body includes nearly 7,000 undergraduates and approximately 8,000 graduate students.
Stanford was opened in 1885 by Senator Leland Stanford and his wife. It is said that Senator Stanford offered to build the school in nearby Menlo Park, but the town refused to close down its many raucous saloons.
Today, the school boasts a beautiful campus filled with art and interesting architecture. Currently, the school houses the largest collection of sculptures by Auguste Rodin than anywhere in North America. For those less interested in academics, Stanford's football team (Stanford Cardinal) is a member of the NCAA Pac-10 Conference. The school also hosts an annual US Open Tennis tournament.
The school is located off Hwy 82/El Camino Real. Parking is free on weekends but permits are required during the week. Metered parking is available in the circle at the Main Quad.

Hoover Tower at Stanford University
Hoover Tower is located on Stanford's Campus, next to the Main Quad and the Green Library. It was built in 1941 The tower is part of the Hoover Institution on War, Revolution and Peace, begun by former President Herbert Hoover in 1919.
During the academic term, the tower is open for visits to the Observation Deck. It costs $2 to go up and enjoy the view.

The Stanford campus is huge & so beautiful! I drove around, found visitor`s parking & parked, then wandered around. I`ve visited a lot of college campuses & this one by far is the most beautiful. And it`s not just the weather either. Sprawling lawns, open space, unique architecture that seems European to me, & courtyards.
This is definitely a campus to visit.
Directions: Proceed up University Ave to Campus Drive. You can`t miss the University. Follow the signs.

It sort of works.... but I implemented on a client site and found it unreliable, and also found it required payment in order to have anything more than the bog basic features. Overall, I think it would not be hard to do this better. ...I will have to build a plugin of my own to suit my clients needs.
This WAS hands down the best plugin on the market if you own a gold or precious metals site.
We loved it to bits - the constant update feed was a perfect thing to have in a site header.
Unfortunately the free version is now broken. I say broken because it only updates twice a day (which is pointless) and shows $zero amounts for half the day.
To get the function the free version DID have up until a few days ago you need to subscribe at a huge monthly fee or $200 a year. If the plugin did more that would almost be worth it on a site that generates good money, but on a free informative site it makes no economic sense.
Such a shame - this was a brilliant simple plugin.
The price for the new version is beyond ridiculous.
Here's hoping that fee goes to something more realistic and we may continue using the plugin - but failing that the new free version is useless.

Winter, 1433--and Jeanne d'Arc's ashes still glow...
In the battle between Good and Evil, the Black Knight's sword fells enemies with silent grace. The Knight has sworn that fallen angel Lucifer de Morte and his cruel brotherhood will pay for their reign of terror over France--and over the d'Ange family, where nearly all have died a terrible death. All but one...
Yet the Knight's hard-won battles and dented armor hide a larger secret. For "he" is actually Seraphim d'Ange. She is traveling to de Morte's demesnes, executing his demon henchmen along the way. Now, aided by Baldwin, a family retainer, and San Juste, a mysterious stranger, Sera grows closer and closer to her final target.
Yet little does she know that there is one more aspect of power she herself holds....

Read an Excerpt
France -- 1433
The black knight's sword-tip drags a narrow gutter in fresh-fallen snow. The tunic of mail chinks against outer protective plate armor. Footsteps are slow. It is a struggle, the short walk from horse to a wool blanket laid upon the snow. There, a squire stands waiting to disassemble the heavy armor and remove it from the knight's weak and weary shoulders.
Thick white flakes have begun to blanket the muddy grounds surrounding the Castle Poissy, making foot battle difficult, slippery. Yet successful.
Mastema de Morte, Lord de Poissy, Demon of the West, has fallen, his head severed by the very sword that now draws a crooked line in the snow.
"You did well," the squire says, not so much encouraging, as merely words spoken to break the hard silence that follows the soul-shredding events of the evening.
The squire, lank and awkward in a twist of teenage limbs, takes to the removal of armor. Gauntlets are tugged off and deposited on the blanket with a cushioned clink. He unscrews the pauldrons starring the knight's shoulders, and lifts the heavy bascinct helmet off the mail coif. Working from shoulder to leg the squire carefully, noiselessly, sets aside the pieces of armor. Wouldn't do to draw attention to their dark hideaway a quarter league from the castle. Earlier, the squire had found the perfect spot tucked away inside a grove of white-paper birch limning the river's edge. The Seine flows in quiet grace, accepting with little protest the fallen soldiers who have given up the ghost in battle.
"Hold out your arms and I'll lift the tunic from your shoulders. Steady."
It is difficult not to sway. The knight's legs feel cumbersome, leaden. Arms are weak from swinging the heavy battle sword. Though forged and designed especially for the bearer, the weapon had become a burden after what seemed hours of blindly swinging and connecting with steel plate armor, chain mail, and human flesh and bone. Though it could have been no more than a quarter of an hour from the time of entering battle to the moment of success.
This act of participating in war, in bloodshed and mindless cruelty is new. But necessary. And not mindless. Not in any way.
The tunic, fashioned of finely meshed mail, is lifted from shoulders, lightening the weight on the knight's tired, burning muscles. Carefully the squire works the mail coif from a tangle of dark, sweaty hair that has slipped out from under the protective leather hood.
Suddenly granted reprieve from the heavy weight of steel and mail -- and revenge -- the knight's muscles wilt and limbs bend. The hard smack of check against ground feels good. Cool snowflakes kiss feverous flesh and melt tears of the new season over eyelids and nose and lips.
The squire, sensing the immense toll battle visits upon his master, allows the silent surrender to rest, a dark oblivion rimmed with promises of salvation that only angels can touch. He lifts the mail tunic and places it in the leather satchel spread across his horse's flanks. Necessary tools this heavy armor and meshed steel, as they travel the unseasonably frigid desolation of France from one village to the next in this insane quest for revenge.
Insane, but certainly warranted.
"You have felled both Satanas and Mastema de Morte," the squire offers, holding observance over his silent master. "But three to go."
"This one . . . was for Henri de Lisieux." It hurt to stretch a hand up to brush the snow from a bruised and aching face. The knight squinted against the sharp bite of cold. It is not natural, this heavy snowfall. But what since the coming of the New Year had been natural? "Have you caught wind of where the next de Morte plans to strike?"
"Nay," the squire responded. "But I wager word will be bouncing off the tavern walls in the next village. If you can find a de Morte foolish enough to venture out after the death of two brothers. I fear Abaddon de Morte will remain scaled behind a fortress of stone once word of another brother's death reaches his ears."
"He is the . . . Demon of the North," the knight managed through breathless gasps. Lying in a state of weary triumph, surrender to the bittersweet kiss of winter is effortless. "We shall be on to Creil and meet the man on his own domain."
"Is there any other way?"
The squire sighed, and kicked at the fresh-fallen layer of white flakes with a tattered boot he'd peeled off a dead man's foot less than a week ago. "There is another way, it is called retreat."
"Not an option, squire. Do you live in fear or faith?"
He wanted to simply mutter fear, for of the two 'twas that to which he clung most often. To him, faith was a whole new world, one he'd hoped the abbe Belloc could lead him toward, far away from the sins of his past.
"It is fear . . . for now."
"Then I shall have to keep the faith for both of us. We ride."
The squire had known that would be the command. As he had come to know every rational suggestion he made would be immediately discounted by this false knight of vengeance. But whom had he left in this world to listen to anything he should say? "Tomorrow then, we ride to Pontoise, it is six leagues from here. We shall keep our eyes wide and our cars open for any word of the North Demon's plans."
"We shall ride tonight."
"Six leagues?"
Unhinged, the squire thought of the knight sprawled on the ground. Completely lunatic.
"It is what must be done" The tone of his master's spoken words had changed since the first morn of the New Year. Commands and utterances had become deep and alien, laced with an unwelcome evil.
"Very well." Resigned that he would get no sleep this night -- as he had not gotten for the last two nights they had ridden by moonlight -- the squire rubbed his itchy eyes. With resolute regard, he toed a mass of the black hair that swirled around his master's shoulder. "If you intend to continue this charade I wonder should you cut this off. These luxurious curls are a dead give- away that you are a woman, my lady."
"I've no intention of disguising myself as a man. It is unnecessary. Rumors run rampant of a black knight come to exterminate the de Morte clan. Who would suspect a woman?"
"True. But the road is a dangerous ride, my lady. You are a beautiful woman. Would not you prefer the safety of disguise over the possibility of further harm to your person?"
"There is not a brand of harm left in the tattered kingdom of France that can further wound this blackened heart."
"Really?" He hated to challenge her so, but the squire knew otherwise. This woman's heart glowed a brilliant silver.
A lightning swift hand lashed up and unfastened the dagger from the belt the squire wore at his ankle. Another dead man's gift.
Seraphim d'Ange handed Baldwin Ortolano the weapon, handle first. "Do it then."
Lucifer de Morte tightened his jaw and clamped his eyelids shut. The sheep tallow used to oil his saddle oozed between his leather-gloved fingers.
"Just last night," Mastema's emerald-liveried messenger said in a tone too soft and fearful to blossom from a whisper. "I rode all night, my lord. I beg thee forgiveness."
At a dismissing flick of Lucifer's fingers, the messenger bowed and backed from the private chamber positioned deep in the center of die fortified lair. Lucifer remained stiff, his hand fixed in a scrubbing position on the cantle of his saddle.
To his right, a blazing fire spat angry sparks across the tiled Istrian-marble floor. The hearth -- forged of iron -- resembled a demon's mouth, complete with curved fangs, and above the gaping jaws, carved recesses for eyes where the flames danced high, animating the macabre face in wicked design. Overhead, suspended from the pine-beamed ceiling, a stuffed eagle, preserved and mounted with its eight-foot wingspan regally spread, silently mocked Lucifer with its glistening ruby eyes.
The black knight, the messenger had said. Again.
In a rage of motion, Lucifer pushed away from the saddle stand and crossed the room, scattering tallow and steel saddle furnishings in his wake. His sword, propped by the hearth, flashed violently as he swung the jagged-edge espadon through the heat-festered air.
He spun once, his anger, the pure force of his loss, drawing the pain up through his arms and to the end of the espadon. With a grunt and, a thrust, he dashed his blade against the stone wall. Steel clanged dully. Limestone chips spattered the air. He thrust again. Clang. And again. He smashed his sword against the wall until his arms burned with exertion and foul sweat poured from his scalp.
Staggering to the wall, to which his back connected with a jaw-cracking thud, Lucifer finally dropped his sword with a clatter. A spark from the hearth leapt into the air and landed an amber jewel upon the deadly steel.
Lucifer raked his fingers through his tangled mass of dark hair. He squeezed his scalp until he saw crimson behind his closed eyelids. The color of blood.
The black knight's blood.
Some fool bastard had taken it upon himself to exterminate the de Morte clan. Why?
No! It mattered not the reason. Lucifer knew well there were hundreds, perhaps thousands of reasons; the bones and scarred flesh of those reasons buried copiously beneath the frozen French soil or floating down the murky waters of the Seine.
But why now? Why, after nearly two decades of de Morte reign, had some demented soul finally decided to exact revenge? And to succeed?
Mastema had been beheaded in the middle of the battlefield. He always surrounded himself with his own men. Always. After learning of their brother Satanas's death on the field but five days earlier, surely Rimmon, Mastema's Master of Arms, must have been at his side, his eyes peeled for oncoming danger?
With a guttural grunt, Lucifer kicked at the flaming ember that simmered on his sword blade. It sailed through the air, a sizzling missile launched by hatred, to land in the fire with a grand explosion of heat and blue-red flame.
Still panting from the toil of his anger, Lucifer stood before the blaze, fists clenched at his thighs. Heat blistered his face in delicious warmth. He could feel the sweat bubble upon his flesh like the surface of a witch's cauldron. So difficult at times, this sheath of mortality that he wore.
But obviously not a challenge for much longer, if this black knight would have his way.
Satanas had lived south of Paris in Corbeil; his nickname, the Demon of the South, as the villagers had taken to calling him. Hell, half of France used the monikers years of destruction and debauchery had attributed to the de Morte brothers. Mastema, the West Demon, had resided in Poissy. Sammael, the Demon of the East, resided in Meaux. The four brothers surrounded Lucifer, who lived in Paris.
But if the black knight was systematically attempting to crase the de Mortes from the planet, north would be his obvious next move.
Squeezing his fists so tight the tallow and sweat and his own blood mixed to a hideous ooze, Lucifer decided on his course of action. He would not leave his own fortress to aid his youngest brother. Abaddon was an ox in size and vigor; he did not require Lucifer's help to flick away an offensive gnat like the black knight.
But he would send out a scout -- no, a mercenary -- to track this vengeful knight, and stop him in his tracks before Abaddon even need worry about defending himself against die revenge the de Morte family surely deserved, but would never tolerate.
The road to Pontoise stretched a long white ribbon this chill January eve. Flakes as light yet massive in size as swan's down fell quietly through the night. Seraphim blew a breath through her nose. Ignoring the ice-fog that lingered in a pate cloud before her, she slipped the leather hood from her head. She scratched a hard over her newly shorn locks and eased her heels into Gryphon's flanks to pick up the pace.
Gryphon had been her brother Antoine's prized mount. A fine black Andalusian bred for battle stealth and stamina, it measured near to sixteen hands. The beast's coat glimmered a blue sheen under sun and moon. "Power," Antoine had always whispered, as he'd brush down Gryphon's coat -- a formidable partner to sword and shield.
Behind Sera, Baldwin dutifully followed on his borrowed roan, clad in borrowed clothes and borrowed life. He was a reluctant squire to Sera's bold, black knight. The man -- teen -- had been studying under the tutelage of the abbe Belloe, an ill attempt at penance against his former life, when Lucifer de Morte's raid upon the d'Ange castle the first morning of the New Year had taken down all but a handful of household servants and knights.
Much as Sera would rather shoulder the quest for revenge entirely herself, she took comfort in the young man's company. There was no favor for a lone woman riding the high roads by night. Even if the disguise of armor and distempered countenance did fool some, it certainly would not fool all. And as Baldwin had implied, she might be physically prepared to fight off attackers, but mentally, there were no promises.
Sera had endured much since her mother's illness had rendered the taciturn matron useless about the d'Ange castle a decade ago. But she had endured so much more in the short days since the New Year had begun.
The moment she allowed herself to stop, to think on what had occurred just weeks earlier, the nightmare would engulf her.
Never. I will not allow it.
"Oh my -- bloody saints!" Baldwin hitched a clicking sound at his horse and rode up alongside Sera. "I -- I'm so -- damn -- so sorry!"
She regarded him slyly, for to turn her head any more than a fraction of an arc pained fiercely. Exhaustion from this night's battle clung to her muscles. She needed rest. Even the chill air could not rouse her to any more than dull interest. "What be your concern, Bertram?"
"Your . . ." He gestured at her head with long, pale fingers that she'd always remember as clutching a bible. Or a toad. The makeshift squire stretched his mouth to speak, but after a few more gesticulations and wide-mouthed gasping, couldn't express his obvious dismay with any more than, "I'm just so sorry."
Sera rubbed a hand over her scalp, assuming his chagrin to be directed at her hair. "Twill grow back."
The sound of her own voice, abraded and sore, was an odd thing. She did not recognize the deep rasping tones. New, shiny scar-flesh had begun to appear beneath the scabbed wound on her neck. Little pain lingered. Save that which seeped from the tear in her soul.
"But . . . it's so -- oh -- Mother of Malice! Why did you command me do such a thing in the dark of night, my lady? It is hideous! You look a sheep shorn by a swillpot. It juts here and there and -- Heaven forgive me!"

I anm an avid reader of paranormal romance and historical novels. I rarely meet a novel I don't like. In Seraphim, I loved the plot, Sera and Dom had great potential...inspired and creative idea. Unfortunately, the writing was flat and lacked detail. The action scenes were bland. Ms. Hauf is a capable author and has written some ejoyable books. This book neeed a good editor to kick it back for rewrites a few more times.. Reading it was an Epic Struggle.
This book became my favorite when I had previously never had a favorite book before. It's been a few years since I first picked it up, but it's one of those books you loan to everyone and I can personally say my copy of this book has seen more hands than any other in my collection. It speaks from the two main characters' points of view and shows the growing romance between them as they go on a journey seeking revenge. There are several battles in the story and all are very unique, no part of this book is repeative. The author also works very cleverly with twists.
This is recommended to anyone looking for a skillful blend of action and adventure with just the right amount of romance. (Of all the books I recommend Elphame's Choice is by far the best as the only book to ever surpass Seraphim in my mind.)

Arts This Weekend at the Movies
posted by May 25 at 16:04 PMon
This weekend is all about SIFF (and SIFF Notes Online), of course, but say you don't feel like braving the dead stare of Platinum pass holders and the anxiety of watching a film with the director nervously anticipating your every titter. What are your options?
Seattle True International Film Festival: The scrappy underdog festival kicks off this weekend. Andrew Wright has the lowdown. (Actually, many directors will indeed be in the audience at STIFF, but the fanciest pass holders only paid $50.)
Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End: Sean Nelson reviews the juggernaut.
Ping Pong: Grand Illusion has a "manic, wonderfully overwrought manga adaptation about the fierce competitive drive of dudes with names such as Peco, Smile, and Demon," says Andrew Wright.
The Freshman: The Paramount's Silent Movie Mondays series wraps up on… a Friday? Yes, indeed, The Freshman and For Heaven's Sake play tonight at the Paramount.

I'm working on a new theme for my WP site. I'm new WP and not sure how everything works just yet. I've been reading the Codex and found many answers there to my questions but this one I can't find.
I'd like to list my recent posts on a page called "Recent". Then I'd like to use the plugin called "Static Front Page" to set my "Recent" page as the default page. The problem is I don't know how to get my posts to show on the "Recent" page. I've copied the code from the index page, hoping that would work but it didn't. Can anyone point me toward answer? Perhaps there is something I missed in the Codex?

Since the data files are so spread out I've made a quick search utility that allows you to search for files with a specified name within all the game's MOD and RIM files. It is listing all matches in a sortable list along with in what MOD/RIM archive they were found. It also has an extraction feature where it can extract the selected files from the search result to a folder on your hard drive.
You can use wildcards in a limited way within the filename, for example to search for all files of a specific type ("*.2da" to find all 2DA files), or a match against a sub-pattern of a file name within a specific type ("p_ling*.txb" to find all TXB files with "p_ling" as part of the name, or "p_li*h01.txb" to find all TXB files with names containing "p_li", potentially followed by something else and then followed by "h01").
Wildcards do not work within the file extension itself ("*.md*" for example) at the moment, and may sometimes behave in a bit weird way when used in the middle of a filename pattern. Hopefully those bugs should be fixed in the next version when I have the time to do it properly.
It seems to work from what I've tested, though it's not considered complete yet. As said above the search works in a somewhat peculiar manner currently, which I hope to make more logical in later versions. Future plans include adding support for searching in the KEY/BIF data files as well as the override folder so that all data can be searched.
If anyone wants it, you can downoad it from the link in the first post in this thread.

There are loads of those memes flying around social media that are some variation of "How to help an author" or "Support Authors" or "Fuck you, reader, dance for me, you monkey!" The truth is, you owe an author nothing. At all. Just because I wrote a book, and that book got published, doesn't mean anyone is under any obligation to buy it, let alone do anything else. And even if you, dear reader, did buy a book I wrote, and you loved it so much you went around with it stuffed down your pants for a week, you still owe me nothing. Although, you might need to consider getting out more if you really did spend a week with a book down your pants. But I digress.
Put simply, there is no obligation of any kind on readers. They choose to either buy a book or not. Then they get around to reading it or they don't. That's it. Finished.
But, of course, there is a lot more they can do, should they so choose, and lots of those things really honestly genuinely help authors. So as my Alex Caine trilogy hits Australian and NZ bookstore shelves today, all three books in print at last, it seems a pertinent time to talk about this. And the ideas, while they can be listed in a trite meme, are maybe better explained in a little more detail. This stuff applies to big trad books and indie books, well-known authors and newbies. So here we go. You owe me nothing, but if you want to help, here's what you can do and why it helps.
Buy The Book
Well, d'uh! Right? Not entirely. More options later. But obviously, at the bottom line, book sales are what keeps authors and their publishers alive. But it's especially good with a new release if you buy the books during week 1 or 2 after release. Why? Because publishing is a machine and it doesn't stop. It swallows authors, chews them up, and spits out their gnarled remains. The way an author survives the machine is if they sell well enough to not be spat out. And the best way for an author to sell well is to start by selling well. Sure, many books are successful on a slow burn, but to sell they have to be on shelves. Bookstore real estate is highly contested space, so if a book sits on a shelf for a while and doesn't sell, it will be sent back to make space for a new book. But if it shifts several copies in the first week or two, the shop gains confidence in it and gets more copies in. The sales data is good and buyers order more. It might hit bestsellers charts, even just in-store ones, and stores order yet more. The profile of the book is raised and it gets more traction. That's momentum happening right there, and that's what we need. So please, if you think you want the books, buy them sooner rather than later. And if your local store doesn't have them, order them in.
Order them in at your library.
But you're skint? No problem, man, I know those feels. Books can be a real luxury. But you know who has free books for you to read? Your local library. So go there and ask them to order the books. When libraries buy a copy, that's another sale. And authors get a small amount of money for each library borrow their books have, so that's another income stream for them in the long term. And more visibility of their books out in the world.
And you know what? As we're talking about helping authors, even if you do buy the books, order them at your local library too. Help the authors and other readers will find them over time. Readers are what it's all about, and more on that in a minute.
If you're travelling, buy them at Newslink.
This is a weird one (and a bit Aussie-centric) but it really helps. Newslink is the bookstore chain at airports and train stations around Australia. Lots of people impulse buy books right before a long journey, so they go to Newslink looking for a travel read. The Alex Caine Series (for example!) is a great thriller read for travelling, so if Newslink have plenty in stock, it's likely they'll sell well there. But remember about how stores only keep stock of books that sell? It's a bastard of a catch-22, right? So if you're into buying these books and you're travelling soon, grab them at Newslink so Newslink order more!
Buy for yourself and as gifts.
So as this is all about helping authors, how about buying the books more than once? Buy for yourself, of course, but if there are any birthdays or other celebrations coming up, buy another copy to give as a gift. That's more sales and more readers, who may not have bought the books otherwise. I love buying books for people and introducing them to new authors, and I love it when people do that for me.
Tell friends, family and colleagues all about them.
So that's all the actual purchase stuff covered. But there's much more to a book's success than that, and here's where we talk about readers. We need lots of sales but individuals can only do so much. We need lots of individuals doing a little bit. Garth Nix calls it the transfer of enthusiasm. So when you love a book, don't keep that to yourself. Talk about it! Tell your friends and family, talk about books at work, show off the copy you love so people recognise the cover when they see it again. Be enthusiastic and transfer that enthusiasm all around. Nothing works better than genuine, honest word of mouth. That's what really sells books and that's where books find success. So recommend them wherever you can.
Lend your copy to a friend.
Lend? Isn't this all about sales!? Well sure, but not entirely. If you've loved a book, lending it is a great way to transfer your enthusiasm. That's another reader, hopefully another fan. That's another person talking it up and transferring their enthusiasm. Momentum!
Talk them up (and share the cover images) on social media.
If you only have 14 followers on Twitter and 38 friends on Facebook, don't think for one second that you lack influence. People will pay attention to your social media commentary if they are your friend or follower. That's why they're your friend or follower. Every single eyeball counts. So just like you talk up the books in person, do it online, wherever you hang out online. And again, share the cover image so people can spot it easily in store. It really helps.
Leave a review and rating on Amazon, Goodreads, iTunes, etc.
And when it comes to talking about them online, if you can be bothered, reviews make a huge difference. You don't need to be a great reviewer. You can write:
"this book was really grate, I loved the action. people will definately enjoy it to."
Seriously, that's awful spelling and grammar, but it counts. Because it's the transfer of enthusiasm that matters, not your writing skills. And the more reviews something has, the more visibility it gains on that site, and the more likely other people are to take a chance on it, because it seems like it's already popular. And that's the thing about getting more readers – the more popular something appears, the more other people will want to check it out. The more other people check it out, the more likely they are to talk about it too. Hopefully they've enjoyed it and they're talking it up, so the more transfer of enthusiasm we have. That means even more readers, that means even more sales. It's a self-perpetuating engine of literary love. The book gains success, the author stays in the machine and gets to write more, and readers get to read more. And you helped. Only you can help. Readers and their enthusiasm are an author's pulse and lifeblood. We love you people.
So you owe me nothing, but if you do want to help, buy, order, talk, and review. Be part of that great word of mouth process. And if you do any of that, I genuinely can't thank you enough. You totally rock!
Transfer your enthusiasm!

Couple deny arson chargeMay 21,2013Couple deny arson charge
A Fair Haven couple charged with torching their car dealership denied a pair of arson charges brought against them.
Edward David, 50, and his wife Tammy, 46, pleaded innocent Monday in Rutland criminal court to felony charges of second-degree arson.
They were released on minimal court-ordered conditions after the hearing.
The pair allegedly lit a fire that destroyed their dealership on the evening of March 17.

Simple and delicious! I made a few small preparation changes slicing the mushrooms and zucchini to suit the size of the prawns / skewers but otherwise stuck with the marinade and cooking method. The subtle lemon / garlic flavour was great and the olive oil in the marinade helped it all cook evenly.
