There are some who feel the Devils are renegades for challenging the NHL by signing Ilya Kovalchuk to a 17-year, $102 million contract, particularly since their last high-profile challenge of an NHL ruling brought such a stern, if not historic, response.
The perceived fallout that followed the outside-the-league legal challenge to former coach Jim Schoenfeld's suspension for his run-in with referee Don Koharski during the 1988 playoffs — including the league ultimately instituting a fine for teams initiating such outside litigation in future matters — might've been enough to soften an organization's handling of such conflicts going forward.
But then, general manager Lou Lamoriello, at the center of both issues, is not afraid to make some waves.
Of course, the Devils also are an organization that thinks it is now on the cutting edge in marketing with last year's decision to wear throwback jerseys one time. Really.
Imagine if Charlie Finley were still around.
It is 40 years since Finley, then owner of baseball's Oakland A's, bought the NHL's Oakland Seals and changed the team's name to the California Golden Seals two games into the 1970-71 season.
He also made his players wear white skates, colorful uniforms and wanted to introduce an orange puck. The league rejected his puck idea.
The Seals were the first NHL team to put players' names on the back of their jerseys.
"Charlie was a legendary guy, without a doubt," recalled former Devils director of player personnel Bert Marshall, who played for the Seals. "I never had a problem with him. Maybe we just didn't know.
"We were the outcasts, the bottom feeders. We were the black sheep of the whole league at the time, dressed up in Kelly green and whatever that yellow was called. Gold or whatever he called it. He was quite a guy. We didn't see that much of him, but we sure felt his presence all the time."
Finley owned the Seals for four years, but his impact was undeniable. His marketing schemes gained attention, yet resulted in neither sustained attendance nor a winning team.
He fired his GM, Bill Torrey, who had begun to turn the Seals around and went on to build the Islanders teams that won four successive Stanley Cups. And, as with the A's when he revolted against baseball's free agency, Finley refused to pay his top players as they jumped to the new World Hockey Association.
"The year the World Hockey Association came in, we lost about half our team. The reason was the WHA was paying more money," said Marshall Johnston, a former assistant coach and player personnel director for the
Devils who had been a defenseman for the Seals.
"The manager at the time was Garry Young, and the league told him, 'We'll look after Charlie. You get the players signed.' They wanted to keep the players in the NHL.
"Back then, the average salary was around $30,000. Some of the guys were getting $35,000-$40,000 to go to the WHA. We had been coming up a little bit, but we took a step backward. The league ended up buying the team back from him. I'm sure Charlie didn't lose a lot of money."
Just as the league assumed ownership of the Phoenix Coyotes last season, it took control of the Seals in February 1974. The Seals eventually became the Cleveland Barons in 1976-77, played for two seasons and were merged with the financially struggling Minnesota North Stars in 1978.
"We were so bad. Mediocre, I guess," Marshall said. "The Seals' white skates and uniforms are what everybody remembers. Nobody remembers the players. They remember the uniforms. Charlie would be happy about that."
Torrey became the GM when Finley bought the team, replacing Frank Selke Jr.
"At first I got along really well with him," Torrey remembered. "People told him I knew what I was doing and he should listen to me. He didn't listen to anybody, and he didn't know a left wing from a right wing."
Torrey knew what he was doing and could have built a winning team in Oakland, but there was a power struggle with Finley.
"I had a provision in my contract that said anything that had to do with a player had to go through me," Torrey said. "He tried to extend my contract if I would have that clause taken out. I wouldn't do it.
"He was going to fire me so I ended up suing him. He went nuts. I beat him in court. Then he fired me anyway, but he had to pay me."
Garry Young replaced Torrey in 1971-72. With the WHA offering higher salaries, Finley refused to keep pace and soon his team was hit hard by losing players.
"Some of the players were in the paper making comments that Charlie was cheap," Johnston said. "So Charlie flies out and has a meeting with the players. He gets up and says: 'Gentlemen, which one of you had this to say in the paper?' Nobody put up their hand. The reason why he wasn't giving the big raises was because we were a poor team. I think he had instructed Young that if we had an OK year, we'd get a $2,500 raise.
"A lot of people had negative things to say about him. I really didn't. We never missed a paycheck. When they were winning World Series, we got good seats right behind the A's dugout."
Marshall said free agency in baseball and the formation of the WHA in hockey infuriated Finley.
"Free agency in baseball set him off. That was the end of the Charlie Finley era," Marshall suggested. "He wasn't going to pay any of those guys-- Catfish Hunter, Reggie Jackson, Joe Rudi-- that kind of money for playing baseball. And we didn't have it in hockey at that time.
"I was making 20 grand from Charlie Finley. I ended up getting traded ro New York and I still had a couple of years left at that. I went to the Rangers for a couple of months and ended up with the Islanders. I remember telling Torrey (now with the Isles), 'How am I going to live in New York on $20,000?' He laughed and said, 'We'll take care of you.' What a crock."
Finley, who made his fortune in medical malpractice insurance, lived in Chicago but spent time in Oakland, where his A's were on the verge of winning three straight World Series. He was able to buy the Seals because NHL president Clarence Campbell and key owners preferred him to roller derby mogul Jerry Seltzer, who had investors from four AFL franchises.
"Charlie wanted to contact all the media in the Bay area," Torrey said. "For three hours we listened to him return calls to each and every one of them, telling them: 'Always in my heart I wanted to own an NHL team. That's been my heart's desire. I love hockey. And I always wanted to live with my family in the Bay area.'
"Well, none of his eight kids and wife ever moved. They kept living in Chicago and on his farm in Laporte, Ind. When he was done talking to the media he said, 'Bill, you know what your first job is for me? To figure out how to get these two teams out of Oakland. I've been here a year-and-a-half and this is an awful town.'
"He said, 'Bill, a good place for us to move is New Orleans. They love baseball and with all the French down there, they'll love hockey.' I said, 'Charlie, they're not French Canadians.' "
He never moved the two teams but did get the Seals to wear white skates even though they created the optical illusion on white ice that players were skating on ankle stubs.
"I told him, 'Charlie, this isn't the Ice Capades. On white ice they're going to look like crap,' " Torrey recalls. "Fred Glover was our coach, an old-time guy, and when I showed him the skates he said, '(Forget it) if you think any of our guys are wearing those.'
"We trained in Oshawa, Ontario, and played exhibition games in Oshawa, Hamilton and Sudbury. Before one game I'm handed a note that says: 'Bill, where are my white skates? I'm downstairs. Charlie.' He was ticked off."
Torrey was certain that when Finley saw how bad the white skates looked, he'd get rid of them. So the GM addressed his players before the game.
"I said, 'Gentlemen, the man who signs your paychecks is here," Torrey said. "Here is a pair of white skates. He wants to see what they look like on a player in a game. Anybody want to volunteer?'
"Everybody dropped their heads. Nobody wanted to wear them. I turned and walked out, not sure if anybody would wear them. But Gary Jarrett put them on and wore them. And they looked like crap.
"Charlie said, 'Bill, you're right. They look like crap. But I'm going to get some green skates with gold toes. We never wore the white skates long. Trainers hated them because the black puck would hit them and they'd look terrible.' But we went with the green skates with gold toes."
The team's official colors were Kelly green, California gold and snow white.
Johnston, now 69 and the director of pro scouting for the Carolina Hurricanes, still has one version of the Seals skates.
"The skates are hanging in my kitchen. They're green and white. Old Bauer skates with white toes and the rest is green," he said. "I remember we were in Boston in the old Garden and there was a faceoff. During a lull this guy hollered, 'Hey, Johnston, where's your purse?' And I still have my jersey."
The Seals never made the playoffs during Finley's ownership, but they traveled in style.
"I remember we went into Boston and beat the Bruins. (Gilles) Meloche stood on his head. We won 3-2 or something and that was during Boston's Stanley Cup days," Johnston said. "The next day we were in New York and Charlie bought us all Gucci shoes.
"We used to fly first class from San Francisco to New York. Quite often it was in a 747 when they came out with the double-deckers. Quite often the team would be up on the top deck, especially if we were on our way back from the East. The beer would be flowing pretty good."
Johnston, who was the team's player rep, tried to get Finley to provide some extras that might help the Seals win more games.
He remembers walking into Finley's office one day when the owner was talking to Everett Alvarez Jr. of Santa Clara, Calif., who was the longest-held POW in the Vietnam War. Alvarez had been a prisoner of war for 8 1/2 years and he was going to throw out the first ball at an A's game.
"Charlie didn't live in Oakland but he used to come out fairly regularly because he had the ball team. He lived in Chicago," Johnston said. "We didn't have weight training, off-ice equipment or video. Those things were getting to be commonplace in the league. So I went in there and had a meeting with him.
"You could call him Charlie. He wanted you to call him Charlie. This was at the end of my first year there. I figured it out. It cost him probably close to $30,000 extra to fly us first class. I said, 'Charlie, we don't have any video or off-ice training. The word around (the NHL) is you treat us like a sugar daddy, but this would help us be a better team.' He said, 'Yeah, that's a good point,' but he never did it."
Marshall said it was tough losing, but there were perks.
"He treated us all right. It was tough to get any money out of him for playing. But he'd take us for dinner, and we'd travel first class," Marshall said. "Some of those trips we had were pretty ridiculous. We'd go on the road for 2 1/2 weeks and play 12 games. And we'd lose 10. If you had one of those trips in October, you were out of it.
"We went on the road with Kelly green double-breasted vests and sport coats with black slacks. We had Kelly green suitcases with the Seals logo on it and yellow piping. We must've looked like a circus coming in.
"I've got that suitcase somewhere. He was a big shareholder in Bulova watches. Two years in a row he gave us very nice Bulova watches for Christmas with his signature on the back of them. I have those watches, too. I was never a big memorabilia guy, but for some reason I kept that stuff."
Mementos from an unusual chapter in NHL history.

There are some who feel the Devils are renegades for challenging the NHL by signing Ilya Kovalchuk to a 17-year, $102 million contract, particularly since their last high-profile challenge of an NHL ruling brought such a stern, if not historic, response.

We begin with defense. There's a misconception that I do these defensive ranks to help fantasy owners pick their fantasy defense. But fantasy defensive scoring -- at least touchdowns, the biggest component of it -- is largely random.
Defensive rankings help us to more astutely pick which offensive players at the bottom of our rosters to start by basing these decisions on the most favorable matchups.
Let's focus on the component rankings before looking at the overall best defenses according to our index of key stats.
The defenses you want to avoid with marginal quarterbacks and receivers (toughest first): Jets, Colts, Bills, Steelers, Redskins and Saints.
The only categories we're looking at are NFL rankings in yards per pass attempt (YPA, including sack yards) and TD passes allowed per game. Yes, the Colts didn't slow Tom Brady. Elite players routinely make a mockery of matchups.
Defenses to exploit with your marginal QBs and receivers (worst first): Lions, Bucs, Titans, Jaguars, Chiefs, Dolphins, Cardinals and Rams.
When matching up flex-type running backs, you want to avoid the following road-blocking defensive front sevens (focusing only on yards per rush and rushing TDs allowed per game, toughest first): Steelers, Packers, Ravens, Broncos, Bengals, Vikings, Cowboys and Niners.
With your marginal running backs, seek to exploit the following Charmin-soft run defenses: Bills, Browns, Bucs, Texans, Rams, Lions, Raiders, Saints, Panthers and Giants.
Fantasy players generally have a much better sense of who the best offenses are. So we narrow our focus here.
This week, let's try to figure out some teams and backs that are due for more rushing touchdowns.
Not surprisingly, rushing touchdowns correlate pretty well to two stats in our Power Index: red zone trips per game and third-down percentage.
These teams tend to generate scoring opportunities and attempts for their backs. But in a handful of instances, the numbers don't add up -- some teams are very good in our red zone trips and third-down percentage stats but lag in rushing TDs per game.
It's a safe assumption that these teams will score rushing touchdowns at a significantly higher rate going forward. Data samples for red zone possessions and third-down conversion are much larger than for the handful of plays that result in rushing TDs. In statistics, larger samples always beats smaller ones for projecting purposes.
These larger numbers say the Patriots, Colts, Giants, Chargers and, most notably, the Steelers will score rushing TDs at a higher rate going forward.
Conversely, the Titans, Jaguars and Panthers are scoring far more rushing TDs than we would expect from their red zone and third down stats.
It's no secret why. Chris Johnson, Maurice Jones-Drew and DeAngelo Williams (along with Jonathan Stewart) are explosive backs who are a threat to score whenever and wherever they touch the ball.
Here are some player recommendations based on individual stats.
Beanie Wells, RB, Cardinals -- He has 14 "big play runs" (more than 10 yards), as does Pierre Thomas (in 86 and 94 attempts, respectively). For context, Maurice Jones-Drew has 14 in 169 carries.
T.J. Houshmandzadeh, WR, Seahawks -- He's among the league leaders in targets with 85. I hated where he was drafted in the summer, viewing him as a No. 3 fantasy receiver in his new surroundings. He should be more comfortable now, gets plenty of opportunities and Matt Hasselbeck is coming around. If his owner is benching him, buy him cheap as a WR3.
Steven Jackson, RB, Rams -- The NFL leader (tied with DeAngelo Williams) in rushes of more than 10 yards, with 28. Alas, the Rams do not get into the red zone and thus tend not to score. Jackson is a yardage and point-per-reception beast.
Reggie Wayne, WR, Colts -- The NFL's highest-targeted WR with 98, 70 percent of which have been caught. Yes, Wayne is being carried by Peyton Manning's enormous gravitational force. The QB is the center of the NFL universe. Whoever Manning chooses to be his No. 1 receiver is going to be damn good.
Marques Colston, WR, Saints -- Targeted just 61 times and has seven drops. He's not a WR1 because he can disappear in a game without it really mattering to Sean Payton and the Saints.
LeSean McCoy, RB, Eagles -- He has been stuffed 12 times in 86 attempts. That's 14 percent of attempts. Brian Westbrook has been stuffed once in 47 rushes (two percent of carries, the NFL's lowest rate).
Eagles passing offense -- About half of Donovan McNabb's incompletions are dropped passes (18.4 percent) and poor throws (41.4 percent). (DeSean Jackson and McCoy have each dropped five.) That's too many unforced errors.

If Dennis Allen pays attention to what the media has to say, he might be readjusting nervously in his ever-increasing hot seat today.
First up, Adam Schefter:
Raiders owner Mark Davis recently rejected HC Dennis Allen's request to give extensions to Oakland asst coaches in last year of their deal.
— Adam Schefter (@AdamSchefter) December 22, 2013
A sign of things to come for Allen? It's no secret that, after a decent start to the season, the Raiders are not finishing the season strong. The latter half of the year has been marred by questionable coaching decisions and poor adjustments in the second half of games, both of which reflect poorly on Allen and his staff.
Allen was personally hired by Reggie McKenzie in one of his first moves as the Raiders GM. You could expect him to have enough faith in his own guy to give him a chance to see these rocky times through. In Allen's defense, he has had horrendous teams in his two seasons in Oakland. However, the defensive unit has gotten progressively worse this year, and that's supposed to be his background.
And because McKenzie doesn't have the greatest of locks on his own job, it might not be in his best interest to keep Allen around if the results aren't there through two years, especially if pressure is coming from above with Mark Davis.
Which leads us to our second news item…
Mark Davis mulled hiring Jon Gruden year ago. Expect more of the same now. Gruden still intrigued by that job: http://t.co/lxBZfzNksa
— Jason La Canfora (@JasonLaCanfora) December 22, 2013
Granted, Jon Gruden gets linked to practically every coaching job that becomes available (and it's not the first time we've heard this rumor with this team), and he's seemingly never not at least a little bit interested in any of them. And yet there he is still on your TV saying "this guy" 564 times and fawning over his football man crush Manny Ramirez every Monday night or making budding young quarterbacks sweat in his football film dungeon. Gruden LOVES his job in TV. So, maybe don't start dusting off those old Chucky dolls just yet. But Gruden is still beloved by the Raiders faithful, and there's no denying that his hiring would excite a fan base that doesn't have a whole lot to be excited about these days.

Friday Harbor's Kasey Rasmussen competes April 9 in state Geo Bee
Friday Harbor's Kasey Rasmussen will have one more shot at the state title.
An eighth-grader at Friday Harbor Middle School, Kasey earned a third consecutive trip to the state Geographic Bee finals on the strength of a competitive written exam.
A three-time middle school Geo Bee champion, Kasey qualified for the state finals by winning the school contest and then earning one of the top 100 scores on that written exam, which every school champion must take in order to compete for the state title.
Sponsored by Google and Plum Creek Timber Company, the 2010 Washington state Geographic Bee features the state's top 100 geography students, fourth through eighth grades, competing for the state crown and a slot in the national finals at the National Geographic Society's headquarters in Washington, D.C., May 25-26. The state competition will take place April 9 on the campus of Pacific Lutheran University.
In addition to a trip to Washington, D.C., the state champion will receive $100 and a "National Geographic Collegiate Atlas of the World." The winner of the national contest receives a $25,000 college scholarship, a lifetime membership in the National Geographic Society, and an all-expense paid excursion (parent or guardian included) to the Galapagos Islands.
Kasey won't be the only student from the San Juans competing in the state finals. Orcas Island's Brigid Ehrmantraut, a seventh-grader, qualified for the state competition as well. As an eighth-grader, however, Kasey will be too old to compete next year and the state finals on April 9 will be her last.
Kasey is the daughter of Scott and Kris Rasmussen of Friday Harbor. Her father is a reporter for The Journal of the San Juan Islands.

Holland Township School community builds rain barrels for water conservation
Eighteen Holland Township School families participated in their "Love the Rain! Build a Rain Barrel" workshop on Feb. 19, 2013. All 20 55-gallon plastic barrels were donated by Hatfield Quality Meats/Clemens Food Group.
Elementary Enrichment teacher Stephanie Bacskai was trained by the Rutger's Cooperative Extension to lead the sustainable workshop. The K-4 Holland students will be learning about water conservation from their K-2 "Conservation Crusaders," who are entered in this year's Siemens We Can Change the World Challenge.
Holland Township School's Discovery Garden will have their first rain barrel, painted by the kids showing the water cycle, installed this spring.

Travel: Barcelona's ten-day Circuit Festival returns (part two)
Post your comment
Comments on this article are now closed.
Reader comments
Nice ad
Great to see some positive comments about inclusion here!
What a load of crap !!! These events are advertised by guys with near-perfect bodies, for guys with no fat on their bones and attended ESSENTIALLY by the same stereotypes. There is no stereotyping, just the plain truth. Sad but true.
this article is nothing but a free advertising for the organisers, rather shameful
I couldn't agree more. The pictures used to advertise the avent speak for demonstrate your point well
I'm with you guys. I'd rather stay at home, pour me a tea and curl up with a good book than hang out with those five alley cats with the distorted abs in the PR photo. At least I'd be able to get up and go to work the next day.
I came away from the article still without the foggiest idea what Circuit is.
A circuit party is a dance party , that you preferably attend in a country where you don't live. The crowd is composed a vacuous clones that wear the latest fashinable underwear, designer shades. You will meet the exact same guys you had met at the last party. the tickets are fashionably overpriced, the music predictable.
I did attend a few so i know what I am talking about.
If you are not interested in predictable fashion, taking a lot of illegal drugs, dropping "fabulous" and "gorgeous" every other sentence, you will be looked down on as a freak – at best.
Shallowness at it's pinnacle.
Oh and if you go with your boyfriend, it's considered kewl for half the attendees to have a taste. Enough said.
The statements in this article are a bit disingenuous. Matinee who puts on Circuit started it a few years ago by piggy backing on the efforts of people putting on Loveball (which wasn't great either).
Matinee uses all their money on promotion and advertising. The parties are notoriously poorly planned and executed with the minimal amount of entertainment and no notion of what a circuit party was really about. Circuit parties started as disco parties in the 70s and reached a peak in the 90s before dying out for heavy drug use (it's hard to have a dynamic party with lots of synergy if everyone is in their own mind space). I live in Barcelona. Here there is a big gap between the tourist and local drug addled gays and the guys who you'd actually like to meet and hang out with. Circuit is the worst example of the lowest common denominator of gay lifestyle you can imagine. Lot's of drugs and people trying too hard. The stereotypes of a vapid gay party are in full swing.
Disrespectful for someone else to put on an event?! Theirs should be the only one and only they should make money out of herding gays around a bunch of identikit clone parties?
Whatever haters – if you spent less time being negative and more time at the gym maybe you'd have a different position! Circuit parties are the most fun ever, and everyone is up for a good time and super-friendly, regardless of pec-size or abs! Of course there are always going to be some nasty bitchy queens about that love themselves, but that is the exception rather than the rule in my experience.
Haters? Nobody here is talking about nasty, bitchy queens…it's the drugs and unsafe sex that worries the sane. I'd say the same about rave parties.
Hi guys! If you are looking for a central hostel in Barcelona, this is a nice one and its next to the venue of tomorrow's party megawoof. http://bit.ly/BonMoustacheHostel
it seems to me the guys who need to go to gym the most always have the most jacked up faces…
Its funny about the advertising because 90 percent of the models they use are straight! :-)

Renewable energy is electricity that is produced from sources that are readily replenished by nature and typically are a cleaner source of energy. Examples of renewable resources include the sun, wind, water and organic matter.
Yes. Duke Energy Progress cares about the environment we live in. We partner with organizations throughout our service territory to support hydrogen, solar and other forms of renewable and alternative energy. Additionally, we allow customers who own their own electric renewable generation systems to connect to our distribution system as long as they are interconnected according to procedures that have been adopted to safely protect the customer and Duke Energy Progress.
Duke Energy Progress has several options for you to connect with our grid and sell us renewable energy. Customers wishing to sell all of the output from their generator under a Cogeneration and Small Producer (CSP) Tariff should visit our Standard Option page. We also have a request for proposals webpage for larger projects.
In order to be an eligible Qualifying Facility and receive energy credits from Duke Energy Progress under the CSP tariff, the Qualifying Facility must be a hydroelectric, solar, wind, hog or poultry waste-fueled or non-animal biomass-fueled. The Seller is a Qualifying Facility as defined by the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission's (FERC) Order No. 70 under Docket No. RM79-54. The homeowner must provide proof from FERC that they are a Qualifying Facility prior to receiving energy credits from Duke Energy Progress.
If you are generating power with your renewable generator, you may choose to offset your own energy consumption rather than selling the output to Duke Energy Progress. This is referred to as Net Metering. Under such an agreement, the homeowner will receive credit for any net power flowing back to Duke Energy Progress and effectively allows the utility to store excess generation for consumption by the customer at a later date. See the Net Metering page for more information.
Yes. We offer several incentive programs under our SunSense solar programs. In addition, the Database of State Incentives for Renewables & Efficiency (DSIRE) is a comprehensive, user-friendly and free source of information on state, local, utility and selected federal incentives that promote renewable energy. With a single click of the mouse, DSIRE provides you with a list of renewable energy incentives available in any U.S. state you choose.
Operation of customer-owned electric power generation sources can take many forms, all of which involve special attention to safety for customers and Duke Energy Progress employees. Customers do not have to contact Duke Energy Progress about non-paralleling (electrically isolated) generation, but should take care to operate their generator safely to protect both themselves and Duke Energy Progress employees (See generator safety tips). Customer-owned generation sources that are continuously paralleled with the Duke Energy Progress system (exporting/selling power or non-exporting) must be interconnected under the NC Interconnection Standards or SC Interconnection Standards.
Duke Energy Progress supports innovative ways to use and conserve energy sources that protect our environment. To that end, we have procedures and tariffs that can accommodate either decision. Customers should carefully evaluate the various economic and technical considerations when making their choice. There are various resources (non-profit organizations, government, vendors, etc.) that provide valuable tools and information for making these decisions. In addition, you can explore various options on the Renewables & Customer Generation site.
The Solar House at the North Carolina Solar Center (NCSC) is one of the most visible and visited solar buildings in the United States. NCSC actively participates, often taking a lead role, in several important national and statewide programs related to renewable energy
NC GreenPower is a statewide effort to improve North Carolina's environment by using green power, electricity generated from renewable resources such as solar, wind, biomass and water. The non-profit NC GreenPower organization is the result of collaboration among electric utilities, environmentalists, state regulators and energy generators.
Palmetto Clean Energy (PaCE) is a statewide effort to encourage the development of renewable resources that improve the environment through reduced greenhouse gas emissions. The non-profit PaCE organization is the result of collaboration among electric utilities, environmentalists, state regulators and energy generators.

I make kimchi, coconut milk kefir, and preserved lemons and eat all 3 pretty much daily.
I make kimchi, coconut milk kefir, and preserved lemons and eat all 3 pretty much daily.
I do milk kefir, water kefir, beet kvass, saurkraut, dilled carrots, and yoghurt, ginger style of drink with turmeric and sometimes creme fraiche. My kitchen is a constant source of amazement to my friends/family with all my little bottles all over the place. They think I am like a mad scientist
I would like to do kombucha but I think I have enough 'pets' on the go already.
I love my homemade yogurt (24 hours ferment), but my body didn't so I switched to homemade sour cream (made exactly like the yogurt but with HWC which has much lower casein instead of milk). This also helps keep me regular (in the waste department). I make meyer lemon curd without any sweetener and mix it with my sour cream and freeze it for tart ice cream.
I also make sauerkraut with cabbage, adding carrots or beets in a mason jar on the counter for a week. I add leftover whey or sauerkraut juice to it when I have it, but it works fine with just salt. I put a ziplock Baggie full of water on top of the cabbage to weigh it down into the liquids. I love to throw it in the blender so I can just drink it.
These have been a major influence in my gut health, along with bone broth and/or gelatin.

yeah you are
lolBaby if you time travel back far enough you can avoid that work because the dust won't be there. You're too pretty to be working that hard.
i Live in Germany so good quality sauerkraut is just a 5 minute walk away, but I am wary of trying it. It sounds bloody awful. What does it go nice with?

We all know the importance of keeping a clean house for ourselves and our families. A clean home gives a nice peaceful sensation and is pleasant to the senses. It is a good feeling to open up our closets, gather up some plastic bags, and happily start making room for the new while we give away the old. Anyone that has ever performed this closet cleaning ritual knows what I'm talking about when I say it is a LIBERATING FEELING. You feel like a weight is being lifted off your shoulders and guess what? IT IS!
Any time that we get rid of things we no longer use or that no longer serve us we are opening ourselves to welcoming new things into our life. We are actually telling the universe we are ready for "new" stuff. It is amazing how well that works. But here's even better news. Not only does this Cleaning work for material "stuff" it works for Spiritual "stuff" as well.
First thing we need to do is take an honest inventory of all the Spiritual stuff we've been carrying around for a long time. Does it still serve us? How about that anger we felt when an old boss fired us from our job? We may now have a much better job yet, we still feel that familiar pang of anger whenever we think about it. Same thing may apply to Ex-partners, co-workers, ex-friends and the list can go on forever.
Here's what I propose - clean all that negative energy out of your life so that new, positive energy can flow through. Get rid of old grievances that no longer serve you so that new friends can come through and new relationships can be started. It can be as easy as cleaning out a closet and a lot more fun and beneficial.
With that in mind, I bring you my new, fresh, SPIRITUAL CLEANING RITUAL - Do it with faith and don't forget to have fun!
This ritual should be perfomed for a week (7 consecutive days) starting on a Sunday and ending on a Saturday. I also recommend you do it each day at the same time. Start by gathering the following ingredients:
Now start the work. Each day of the week, starting on a Sunday you will do the following:
Let me know how this little Spring Cleaning ritual works for you my dear friends. Remember that everything we do with love makes us better, happier human beings. Many blessings to you and yours!

With $5 million in no-interest construction bonds available, St. Tammany Parish school officials are moving forward with plans for renovations at Alton Elementary School.
Part of the federal stimulus act, over $130 million in qualified school construction bonds are available to Louisiana school districts on a first-come, first-served basis, with another $100 million set aside for the state's largest school districts. St. Tammany sent a construction supervisor to the state Department of Education before dawn earlier this month to secure St. Tammany's share.
"Our guy was the first at the door," said spokeswoman Meredith Mendez.
The 15-year bonds will be paid back at an anticipated zero interest rate using parishwide construction funds. The federal government will provide tax credits in lieu of interest to lenders who issue bonds to eligible school districts.
The St. Tammany Parish School Board granted school officials preliminary approval to issue the bonds on Thursday last week. Boards have until November to get state Bond Commission approval and find buyers for the bonds in 90 days or the allocation is canceled.
Mendez said the money will be used to renovate classroom, library and administration areas at Alton Elementary in Slidell. The project is scheduled to be completed in 2012.
"Alton renovations were a project that they were going to have to do little by little over a number of years," Mendez said, "The bonds give them a chance to complete this project all at once over a three-year period."

Social care in the 21st century should offer seamless services delivered by a more skilled and professional workforce.

By including the denial account, Matthew warns disciples against apostasy in the face of persecution. By placing two responses to betrayal side by side, Matthew also points out how disciples should respond to failures of their discipleship. Peter wept with remorse (v. 75); Judas killed himself (27:5). Only the former was able to return to Jesus.
Peter had hoped to follow a Messiah whose kingdom did not involve the cross (16:22); thus he proved unprepared when the time came to take up his cross and follow the Lord (16:24; compare Dewey 1976:111). That Peter illustrates Jesus' teaching about discipleship in 16:24-27 indicates his function as a paradigm for us: only by counting the cost of following Jesus, only by watching and praying, will we be ready when the hour comes for us to share the sufferings of our Lord for his name's sake.

Syracuse, NY - County Judge William Walsh was expected to be unusually busy in court today, pulling double duty on overlapping homicide trials.
He has a jury due back to continue deliberations in one trial and he is scheduled to start selecting a jury in another.
Jurors are due back for a second full day of deliberations in the trial of Jamar T. Coleman. Coleman, 23, of 105 Knaul St., is charged with first-degree manslaughter and second-degree criminal possession of a weapon in the July 8 death of Gary Cooper, 22, of 1337 Butternut St.
Coleman is accused of stabbing Cooper during a brawl in the street near the corner of Knaul and Butternut streets. Police said 20 to 30 people were fighting with knives, bats, bricks and at least one handgun when officers arrived on the scene.
Defense lawyer Edward Klein contends Coleman was acting to defend himself and a friend when the fatal stabbing occurred.
The jurors began deliberations late Thursday and continued all day Friday without reaching a verdict. They are expected to resume deliberations today after having some trial testimony read back to them as requested before they recessed for the weekend on Friday.
With that case going on, Walsh is scheduled to begin selecting a jury to hear the murder trial of Eduardo Trinidad-Ayala in the fatal shooting of cab driver Timothy Gordon last year.
Trinidad-Ayala, 24, is accused of being one of three suspects who tried to rob Gordon during an incident Jan. 29, 2009. Gordon, 29, was shot in the head during the holdup and died the day after he was found wounded in his overturned cab on Summit Avenue in the Strathmore neighborhood of Syracuse.
Trinidad-Ayala is facing charges of second-degree murder, attempted first-degree robbery and second-degree criminal possession of a weapon. His co-defendants pleaded guilty in January.
Chuckie Phillips, 19, pleaded guilty to second-degree murder and admitted he actually shot Gordon during the attempted holdup. He's facing a sentence of 20 years to life in state prison.
Denny DeJesus, 20, pleaded guilty to second-degree criminal possession of a weapon and was promised a sentence of 15 years in prison.
Trinidad-Ayala faces a maximum penalty of 25 years to life in prison if convicted of murder in the case. His trial is expected to last through the week.

Whenever Lee Atkinson's maltese dog Harley heard the slightest sound, he'd bark. At times it was a bit annoying, says the dog's owner.
But thank God for Harley on the morning of June 20, when the small dog barked to alert Atkinson that the house the pair lived in at 1000 Lakeside Road was on fire.
"I was in bed and I was sleeping and my dog started barking. I woke up. I was upstairs and the smoke was just pouring up the stairway up the stairs. I could barely see," Atkinson said Wednesday morning, as from across the street he watched as his family home was being consumed by smoke and fire. The house had belonged to the Atkinson family since 1958. Lee Atkinson had purchased the home from his father Basil a few years earlier.
Although there had been many renovations to the home over the years, and a section could have been built onto the back of the home, a stairway at the rear of the house still existed and Atkinson used that as his escape route. He couldn't see any flames, and having been abruptly awoken from his sleep he was dazed as to what was going on.
"There was a door to the back stairwell that was closed so the smoke wasn't getting in there, so I went through there. Actually the power was still working so I had a light on up there," he said, although by that time the back porch was filling up quite a bit with smoke.
"I came out of the house, I was in a daze. I put my dog in my truck and then I kind of just started walking around the house trying to figure out what was going on," says Atkinson. "There was no flame, it was just smoke. I had some windows open and the smoke was coming out of the windows."
The homeowner called 911 and by that time flames were starting to shoot out of the back windows of the house.
Firefighters from several Yarmouth County fire departments responded to the fire and were still on the scene of the stubborn house fire hours later.
When firefighters arrived on the scene at around 5:30 a.m. Wednesday morning the house was fully engulfed. The cause of the fire was unknown at the time, although later in the day it was reported that the fire marshall's office said the fire could be blamed on a faulty piece of electrical equipment, namely a paper shredder.
The house suffered extensive damage as a result of the fire, with the blaze gutting much of the inside and exterior damage caused by the fire itself and also efforts to combat the blaze.
By 9:30 a.m. smoke continued to pour out of the home and flames could still be seen shooting out from parts of the home.
While manpower was needed early on to tackle the fire, Wednesday morning water was in demand, as pumpers kept bringing water to the scene to fight the fire.
Firefighters were unable to fight the fire from inside the home so they were having to attack it from the exterior. The Yarmouth Fire Department's aerial ladder truck came to the scene around 9 a.m. Wednesday morning to douse the top of the home with water.
Firefighters from the Yarmouth, Port Maitland, Wedgeport and Lake Vaughn fire departments were all on the scene. A portion of Lakeside Road was closed to traffic while firefighters were on the scene.
On Wednesday evening the Yarmouth Fire Department had to go back to the scene after the fire had flared up again.
Aside from his dog, the only thing Atkinson was able to grab as he fled from his home was a pair of shorts that contained his wallet.
As he sat across the road and watched firefighters doing their work Wednesday morning, he remarked about how fortunate he was to have made it out of the home safely. And he also had praise for his dog.
"We always complained because every time he hears a little noise he'd bark and we always said 'stop it, stop it.' I'm glad he did this time."

Matthes optimistic a recount will confirm his narrow win in mayor's election
It's official: Tim Matthes won the extremely close election for Port Orchard mayor.
The Kitsap County Auditor's office certified the election results Tuesday, and the final tally shows Matthes with 2,442 votes and incumbent Mayor Lary Coppola with 2,437.
Since the difference in the vote totals are within one-fourth of 1 percent, a recount of the ballots by hand is required. That will be conducted Tuesday by the elections staff in the Kitsap County Auditor's Office.
Matthes said in a phone interview Wednesday that he's optimistic the outcome will be affirmed.
"The likelihood of a 5-vote mistake being made by the county is not that high," he said.
Matthes declined to say what he thought made the difference in his successful bid to oust incumbent Mayor Lary Coppola.
"I'm just happy at the result, and I don't want to look too close at the reasons because that would be speculative," he said. "Whatever happened along the way was enough to gain five votes, and that's the important thing."
Coppola, reached by phone Tuesday morning after the results were certified, said at first he said he would reserve his comments "until the outcome is final."
However, he added, "We ran a clean campaign all the way through, start to finish, and I have to believe that integrity wins, and if integrity was easy, everybody would do it."
That seemed an obvious reference to the political committee People for a Better Port Orchard, which mailed out two fliers late in the campaign that attacked Coppola's record. Some observers said the fliers distorted the facts.
Matthes, who has said he had no knowledge of the committee nor its activities, had nothing to say when asked if those fliers might have influenced the election.
"I'm not going to make any more comments on that," he said. "I think that's a dead horse that needs to be buried."
While he acknowledged that winning by such a slim margin won't send him into office with a mandate, Matthes said once the outcome is certified in a recount, "I won't worry so much about that five votes.
"The first priority is to get people to realize that Port Orchard won't move forward until we all work together."
Looking ahead, Matthes said he plans to focus on the city's budget.
"I won't kid you; I have a lot of learning to do and I need to do it in a short period of time," he said, adding that he looks forward to working with City Council members and competent department heads like city Treasurer Allen Martin to help him get up to speed.
Matthes also plans to follow through on one of his campaign themes and look for ways to get more citizen input in the decision-making processes of city government.
"I think we've had several things the last four years that came up, and actually blew up because we didn't have enough public participation," he said.

PANAMA CITY BEACH, Fla. -- Matt James, the 17-year-old Notre Dame football recruit killed in a fall from a Panama City Beach hotel balcony, was drunk and reportedly abusive on Friday night, but friends, relatives and teammates remembered James as someone who, according to his coach, "made everybody around him a better person."
James fell to his death from a fifth-floor hotel balcony during a spring break trip to Panama City Beach with about 40 classmates from Cincinnati's St. Xavier High School, the News Herald of Panama City reported. A police major told the News Herald that investigators were told by witnesses and friends that James "had become drunk and belligerent," and was leaning over a balcony rail shaking his finger at people in the next room over when he fell.
James' parents, Jerry and Peggy James, flew to the beach on a private jet provided by a family friend and returned Saturday.
"We would like to thank everyone for their prayers and support during this tragic time, particularly the family at St. X," Jerry and Peggy James said in a statement. "Matt was a very special young man, and it is gratifying to us that you all could see that as well. We are touched by this outpouring of love."

Home-Goods Retailer CSN Stores Raises $165 Million
CSN Stores LLC, an online retailer of home and office goods, said it has raised $165 million from venture-capital and private-equity investors.
The four investors are Battery Ventures, Great Hill Partners, HarbourVest Partners and Spark Capital. CSN Stores, as well as investors from Battery and Spark, declined to comment on the company's valuation.
This is the first round of funding for the Boston-based retailer. Co-founders Niraj Shah and Steve Conine started CSN Stores with their own money in 2002 and said they never needed to raise funds because the company was profitable from the beginning. That's partly because CSN carries little inventory and instead ships directly from manufacturers.
Shah, the company's CEO, said CSN Stores made $383 million in sales in 2010 and is on track to surpass $500 million this year. Internet Retailer Magazine said the site ranks 51st in online sales in the U.S. and Canada.
"To be able to do that without raising capital is incredible," said Alex Finkelstein of Spark Capital.
Sucharita Mulpuru, an online-commerce analyst at Forrester Research, said the investment in CSN Stores reflects "the Internet madness wave of crazy valuations." Professional-networking website LinkedIn, for example, went public last month at a $4.3 billion valuation, while deal-a-day site Groupon is planning an IPO that is expected to value the company at more than $20 billion. Still, Mulpuru added that CSN should be profitable because it carries little inventory.
One challenge, she said, will be marketing expenses. CSN Stores has more than 200 websites, including strollers.com, cookware.com and luggage.com. She said few people finds CSN Store items by going to these sites directly, meaning the company has to invest in online marketing.
Shah concedes that having many sites has been an issue. "One problem is the name is not great," he said. "The strategy of having all these different sites and getting customers to remember the names of all these sites, that's not a very good strategy," he said.
He also said that "CSN" often gets confused with the folk-rock band Crosby, Stills & Nash and that the acronym is hard to remember, anyway. One example: Talk-show Jay Leno once referred to the store as CNS Stores.
Shah said some of the money raised will go toward rebranding CSN as Wayfair.com, a site that will launch in July or August. Eventually all CSN Store sites will be consolidated at Wayfair.com.
The company said it will use its new funds for acquisitions and expansion for Europe.
CSN Stores has 800 employees. It has hired 150 workers this year and plans to add another 200 by the year's end. The company stocks popular items in two warehouses in Massachusetts and in Utah.
Correction: An earlier version of this blog post incorrectly said that Alex Finkelstein was at Battery Ventures.

Lee Sentell, director of the Alabama Tourism Department, said Alabama organizations and corporations spend between $200 million and $300 million each year meeting at Sandestin Beach Resort in Florida because Alabama lacks facilities that can support large groups at the beach.
"We need to do something to change that," Sentell told members of the Economic Development Association of Alabama, who showed their support for Sentell's proposal with enthusiastic applause.
Sentell told the economic developers their group -- a couple hundred strong -- is nearly maxing out the Perdido Beach Resort, where the EDAA conference is being held. He said larger groups must look for larger facilities in areas outside Alabama.
In an interview, Sentell said a new convention center and hotel would not only help the state hold on to its own events and conferences, but also give neighboring states a new option. Many tourists from states such as Kentucky, Tennessee, Arkansas, Louisiana and east Texas consider Alabama's Gulf Coast to be their beach, he said.
"I believe all of them would hold their events here if they had that option," he said.
Herb Malone, chief executive of the Alabama Gulf Coast Convention & Visitors Bureau, said there have been numerous attempts to get such a facility built. Legal challenges, hurricanes, the oil spill and economic downturns have kept a new $100 million convention and hotel complex from going from the drawing board to construction at the Gulf Shores State Park.
However, he said Gov. Robert Bentley has indicated he supports the development.
"I think it is something that we need," Malone said. "Hopefully at some point it will become a reality.
