Car: Sunbeam Tiger MK II
Year: 1967
What makes it special: Sunbeam Tiger's are the V8 high-performance version of the British Rootes Group's Sunbeam Alpine Roadster which was designed in part by the late Carroll Shelby and produced from 1964 until 1967. He had carried out a similar V8 conversion on the AC Cobra, and hoped to be offered the contract to produce the Tiger at his facility in America.
What made it famous: There were two major versions of the Tiger that were built, consisting of the 1964-'67 Series I equipped with the 260 cu in Ford V8, and this one, the Series II, of which only 633 were built in the final year of Tiger production, that came equipped with the larger Ford 289 cu in engine.
Why I would want one: Two simple reasons. It's a good looking, low production series roadster, and the fact that it has a Ford V8, which is incredibly fun to drive when there is that much motor in a small sports car. 'Nuff said.
Fun fact: For two years, the Sunbeam Tiger MK II was the American Hot Rod Association's national record holder over a quarter-mile drag strip.

LEESBURG, VA — Morven Park is a 1,000-acre property with a historic mansion that was once the home of Virginia Governor Westmoreland Davis. Davis was an advocate for agriculture and one of the founders of the Virginia Dairymen's Association. Today, his estate is run by a non-profit organization that has a mission to serve the public in a number of ways. To meet its agriculture mandate, the park has started a farm incubator program. The first participant in that program is Three Monkeys Farm, a local grain operation helmed by Trent Tebbe. Tebbe grew up on a grain farm in Indiana, where his family grew corn and soybeans for grain and seed, as well as wheat and popcorn.
The superstition mountains of GMOs
by Steve Wagner
Changing Food Trends was the theme of the 137th PennAg Annual Meeting and it asked the question on the front page of the program "do consumers drive the agricultural marketplace?" Penn State's Ross Pifer was one of the answerers. Pifer, who is with the Agricultural Law Resource and Reference Center's Rural Economic Development Clinic, pointed out many of the ifs, ands or buts with regard to how various states are handling some of the thornier issues. Pifer is specifically addressing mandatory GMO labeling. Fifteen years ago, the New York Times ran an op-art illustration of what the supermarket offering of GMO foods might look like in the future. Among the items were odorless fish ($5.99/lb.), rectangular zucchini (for easier cooking on the grill), and Viagra peas for 99 cents. (Don't ask.) But since public perceptions of GMOs still runs against them, largely mountains of superstition and misinformation, Pifer focused on a specific argument using tomatoes as an example, and also how some states are managing labeling of GMO products, and also with legal developments.

Make a difference says Farm Fusion speaker
EAST SYRACUSE, NY — As a sought-after professional speaker and radio commentator, Steve Gilliland logs thousands of miles on the road each day. It would be easy for him to lose direction and a sense of purpose.
It doesn't happen, however, because he remembers the dark days that forced him to examine his life and take control.
Gilliland was the keynote speaker at the New York Farm Bureau's Fusion Forum: "Fusing Purpose, Passion & Pride to Ignite Your Potential" at the DoubleTree hotel in East Syracuse in March. It was the first of two days of lectures and workshops aimed primarily at young farmers and ranchers. [Read more…]
Grazing under contract
by Tamara Scully
Are you hearing that rumble? If some of the top grazing specialists in the Northeast have their way, you will be. They've organized together to develop a potential new source of agricultural income, a innovative means of utilizing non-prime farmland, a means of keeping lands in agriculture, and a way to promote the actual grazing of livestock as a reliable feed source.
About 100 people attended the inaugural 2015 Northeast Contract Grazing Summit, held in late March in Morrisville, NY. Hosted by the Weaver Family Farm, and organized by Troy Bishopp, Madison County Soil and Water Conservation District Grazing Specialist, aka "The Grass Whisperer." The event brought together a diverse group of farmers, grazing experts, butchers, and legal and insurance industry representatives, all of whom offered advice, shared successes and learning experiences, and underscored the real opportunities which contract grazing can bring to the region's agricultural community.
"We think this is good for New York. We keep trying to get someone to listen, now we're just doing it," Bishopp said, indicating a team that includes Brett Chedzoy, Mike Baker, Steven Lorraine and many other of the workshops speakers. [Read more…]
Coats for goats
This story sounds like a rhyming children's story. There are pickles and jams in jars and goats in coats on a farm. But there is more to this story.
Pashley Farm, in Schuyler, NY is also home to Rosie's Heavenly Harvest. Rose Burroughs creates homemade salsas, butters, canned products; all fresh and natural. The farm and the canning all started seven years ago when she thought she could make goat's milk cheese. They have not quite come to fruition with the cheese but they make jams and jellies, wine, vinegar from the wine, maple syrup and more. The farm is also home to goats, ducks, and chickens.

And how many of you remember Stringer at the clubs back in the 80's? Remember, Ed Koch pretended as well.
It was a publicity stunt for when he runs for Mayor in 2013, that's all.

Yankees president Randy Levine appeared on "The Michael Kay Show" on Friday to talk A-Rod, Andy Pettitte and the Yankees' dismal performance in the ALCS.
Kay asked Levine if A-Rod would be the Yankees' starting third baseman on Opening Day next spring.
"I do," he said.
Rumors have been swirling about Rodriguez's departure from the Bronx after he was benched in the ALCS.
Levine said he didn't anticipate there being any problems between Rodriguez and manager Joe Girardi after what transpired in the ALCS. Listen to the complete interview:
"I think that it's not a toxic situation whatsoever," Levine said. "I think that Alex is a great player and a great team guy and has a lot of pride. But I think deep in his heart he knew that Joe made the right decision. I think Joe handled it the right way. He talked to him, he spoke to him. He just wasn't hitting right-handed pitching. The relationship is fine. I think Alex wants to be here. Right now I don't anticipate anything different. I think he's going to be a Yankee. When you look at his year, he was an above average third baseman and he's going to continue to be an above-average third baseman."
Here are some other highlights from the interview:
Our pitching was really really good. I think that our hitting just went away. I think that it was incredible to be -- I've been searching for answers why all of these professional hitters just didn't hit. For the most part, except for a few guys, it was most of our team. I've heard a lot of people, a lot of explanations. Nobody really has an answer to how a bunch of great professional hitters -- older hitters, younger hitters, in the middle hitters, a erase hitters, home run hitters -- all went cold at one time. And the only explanation is, that's baseball.
No. I can assure you there was nothing.
I think Joe Girardi and Brian Cashman, they did a great job. They got us in the American League Championship series and they did everything we could to get there. They did a great job, as I said. To me, this whole series came down to great hitters, for one week, not hitting.
My gut tells me that he's such a great competitor that he's going to want to come back. He basically said he's going to think about it but my gut is he's going to want to come back .
CASH SAYS A-ROD WASN'T A SCAPEGOAT: Brian Cashman said Rodriguez shouldn't be viewed as a scapegoat during an interview with Chris Russo on Mad Dog Radio.
"Not at all," he said.
"Alex Rodriguez did not hit right-handers very well all season. He has just over a .600 OPS against right-handed pitching the entire year and that got worse as we went into September and even worse in October. So we had a legitimate alternative. You could argue Chavez had just as good a season, maybe even better than Alex because Alex missed as much time as he did with the injury, the fractured wrist. So we had an alternative from the left side, sitting there at third base, that was very productive against right-handed pitching. So in Alex's particular case we had a legitimate alternative.
"The other guys got a little more rope and then we went to the legitimate alternative with Brett Gardner eventually where Swisher sat and Granderson sat, too. In Robby Cano's case there wasn't any real legitimate alternative to consider, not that we would consider that because he's such a great hitter, but at the end of the day if you look at the large sample size of the entire year and you take the big name out of it and, really, who deserves to play in these matchups, the numbers bear it out. Alex should play against lefties and Chavez against righties based on the year he had."

Bright lights, big city
It all started last February when my friend Lauren got her number drawn out of a lottery of over 1,000,000 people to participate in the New York City Marathon. She couldn't go alone – she needed a travel companion and moral support. How could I refuse my good friend? And besides, it was the perfect excuse to plan my first trip to New York.
Fast forward nine months later. Lauren has trained diligently, we have recruited another partner in crime (for moral support, of course) and we are on board a plane headed for the Big Apple.

Nick & Meichol & Corin
Storming Love: Meteor Strikes #3
by Mychael Black
When a piece of the Sanctuary 69 station crashed to Earth, Meichol finds himself on the outskirts of a destroyed desert city. Wounded, he prays he can find more suitable shelter before night falls. Before he can get far, though, he meets Nick. The human nurse helps Meichol back to a basement shelter with other survivors, and they strike up a friendship–and mutual attraction. But the struggle is far from over, especially when another meteor strike lands another Sanctuary denizen named Corin practically in their laps. The three men, from very different cultures and races, somehow manage to find a way to work together while struggling to survive.
DungeonCrawl 5: Client Has Stopped Responding
by Mychael Black
Elijah has never been the type to fight. Now he has no choice. Mirov's forces march toward them, hellbent on destroying the mages and their supporters. Elijah must stand by his lover Sarin, and with their friends, they must win the battle or face utter destruction.
War is an ugly thing, though, and no one comes out unscathed. For one of them, it is utterly devastating. But hope looms on the horizon, if they can only make it through the night.
by Mychael Black
Evan Reynallt has a past no mortal could ever understand. Reborn as a human, the fallen angel searches for the answers to a prophecy that will allow him to return home. With his human twin, Will, by his side, Evan finds himself caught up in something far more sinister.
Four hundred years after their vampiric turning, Evan stumbles into the one man he's been looking for his entire human life. Protecting the mortal should have been easy, but Evan didn't count on falling in love.
Morgan Adamson swore off all relationships two years ago. A modern-day American transplant living in London, he is perfectly content to be single. Then an image appears in his bathroom mirror, derailing all such notions of bachelorhood. But the man Morgan finds harbors secrets that may very well cost him his life.
(This novel has been previously published, but has been revised.)
by Mychael Black
Detectives Cameron Marshall and Chase Ward are after a killer. Gruesome murders are plaguing their city, and Chase has a unique way of finding the victims. When his visions lead them and a team to an abandoned home, they discover the latest body. Another frightening vision tells Chase that there's far more to this case and the murderer than they ever expected. Now they're on the hunt for a murderer who can't be caught by any normal means.

Glamorous and gritty Mumbai
Mumbai, previously known as Bombay, is the largest city in India and is a conglomeration of seven islands on the Konkan coastline. An eclectic and cosmopolitan city, Mumbai is a contrast of the glamour of the Bollywood film and television industries and India's biggest slum population. A true Mumbai experience means mixing with the locals, eating from street stalls and haggling at markets.
Bollywood, bazaars and the British Empire
Relics of the British Empire can still be seen in Mumbai in a number of impressive examples of colonial architecture. Heritage buildings that deserve a visit include the Prince of Wales Museum, the Victoria Terminus railway station, the Bombay High Court and the expansive gardens at Horniman Circle in the Fort area. Built to commemorate the visit of King George V and Queen Mary, the Gateway of India is Mumbai's most iconic landmark and is best viewed by boat. Back on land, take a leisurely stroll around Kala Ghoda, the cultural centre of Mumbai and home to the best art galleries and museums in the city, most notably, the Jehangir Art Gallery. Next on the list of admirable constructions is Haji Ali, an imposing mosque and tomb built in 1431, situated offshore and accessible only at low tide via a long causeway.
The various facets of Mumbai's rich culture can be discovered in many ways. At street level a myriad of markets and bazaars bring the city to life. See the lanes lined with colourful vendors at Colaba Causeway, or search for antiques and spices at Chor Bazaar Thieves Market. Mumbai is packed with intriguing places to shop. It's also possible to take a socially responsible walking tour of Dharavi, one of Asia's largest slums and the hub of small-scale industry in Mumbai. At the other end of the spectrum, viewing a glamorous Bollywood film at the architecturally spectacular Eros Cinema is an unmissable event. If you have time, stop by the ancient Buddhist caves carved into the volcanic rock in Mumbai's national park. Then, as the sun sets, relax with the locals on the beaches of Juhu and Marine Drive.
Transport to and around Mumbai
Mumbai's Chhatrapati Shivaji International Airport is well connected with most major cities worldwide including London, New York, Dubai, Singapore and Hong Kong. Domestic flights are also available from Terminal 1. A free shuttle bus connects the domestic and international terminals. The easiest way to travel the 28km from the airport to the city centre is with a prepaid coupon taxi. Coupons can be purchased as you exit the airport, just be sure to compare different offers for the best deal. Travellers already in India can jump on a train to Mumbai from most areas. Within Mumbai taxis are plentiful and cheap though travelling in the city traffic can be frustrating and at times terrifying. The BEST bus network offers fairly comprehensive coverage of the city and suburban areas with an efficient and reasonably priced service.

MORRISANIA - Two firefighters were injured battling a three-alarm fire at a bodega Thursday afternoon in Morrisania.
Firefighters say they received a 911 call reporting the fire at Pamela Deli and Grocery around 3:30 p.m.
The whole building on Tinton Avenue and East 163rd Street belongs to the bodega owners, and the fire severely damaged both floors.
One of the injured firefighters was taken to Cornell Hospital with neck burns.

Chloe Grace-Moretz talks about the surprising similarities between Hit Girl and Carrie
There are people I interview every year or so who seem to be basically the same people every time we talk. They may change their haircuts or make some superficial change to their appearance, but they don't really change.
With Chloe Grace-Moretz, though, every time we check in, I am struck by how much she's grown, both in terms of height (she's got to be at least a foot and a half taller now than when we first met) and in terms of maturity. She has become a very poised and confident young woman these days, and each new film she makes seems to expand both her ability and her ambition.
Since the first time we spoke, she has worked with with Martin Scorsese, Kimberly Pierce, and Tim Burton. She has gone toe-to-toe with Alec Baldwin on "30 Rock" to hilarious effect, and she has tackled difficult emotional material in films like "Let Me In" and "Hick." Even so, she is still a teenager, and what I find most encouraging about our chats every so often is that even as she puts together this impressive resume and turns in smart, sensitive performances, she still sometimes seems like a goofy, silly teenage girl, and that's got to be a healthy thing.
For example, our "Dark Shadows" interview last year was a whole lot of silly, and better for it.
This time, Chloe was in full-on junket mode, and I suspect she's been thinking about Hit Girl a lot lately, and answering questions about her seems to come pretty naturally at the moment. She was unable to attend the Comic-Con panel that I moderated a week earlier for "Kick-Ass 2," but we did a live satellite feed to include her, since she was stuck in Boston shooting "The Equalizer," which she co-stars in with Denzel Washington.
By coincidence, they were doing junkets for both "Kick-Ass 2" and "2 Guns" at the same hotel that day, so Chloe knew that Denzel was just one floor down, and she seemed excited to find a chance to run down and say hello. And so even as we did one of our most on-message interviews, focused and professional, she snapped right back into "unaffected teenager" again as soon as she stood up.
Not every young actor makes it through this profession unscathed, and I think there is something particularly difficult about it for young women who make the transition from child to adult with the whole world watching. Chloe is surrounded by family at all times. I've gotten to where I recognize her mother just as readily as Chloe herself. I think she's got a shot at being one of the ones who emerges from adolescence as a whole and normal person, and I'm rooting for her. I remember writing about watching her work back in 2010, and it feels in some ways like it's been a lifetime since then, and yet she's still just warming up for the career I feel like she's got coming.
Should be a blast to watch.
"Kick-Ass 2" opens this Friday.

In Egypt as well as in France, we say no to fascism!
In a context of capitalist crises, the popular revolts are expanding since several years. In Egypt, the revolt took a revolutionary dimension by chasing Mubarak. But it was confronted since the begining to the counter-revolutionary dynamic of religious fascism.
The Egyptian Muslim Brotherhood, after staying carefully away from the popular revolt, a revolt they didn't initiate, were called as a spare wheel by Egyptian bourgeoisie as well as western bourgeoisie.
Playing the historical role the fascists currents whether they put forward a religion or not always played, they took a pseudo-revolutionary stance to gain access to political power, becoming thus the real tool of the counter-revolutionary takeover.
In Egypt, the Muslim Brotherhood, historically supported by British imperialism to counterbalance the independentist movement and the workers' movement, organized themselves on the basis of an ideology which was defined by Sayyid Qutd - one that we can without doubt describe as a religious fascist ideology. Like the fascists in France and everywere around the world, they boast about a so-called "social" dimension while at the same time violently oppose workers' struggles, developing a racist and anti-semitic view of the world, and calling for a national-religious "revolution".
In the same way that the fascists in France champion a "national capitalism", the Muslim Brotherhood champion a "Muslim capitalism" which is only the ideological formula of the Egyptian bourgeoisie's interests.
The first measures taken by Morsi, under Muslim Brotherhood influence, were directed against the workers' movement. We can mention as examples: the banning of strikes, criminalizing union activists, and the will to put workers' unions under control, fully in line with vertical and corporatist fascist unionism. These measures also targeted women and religious minorities.
After allying with the SCAF military junta, the Muslim Brotherhood has emerged as the most efficient representative of the Egyptian bourgeoisie.
Now, they are trying to establish a religious fascist regime through a "coup de force". They try to justify this coup by saying it is aimed at liquidating the old Mubarak state apparatus, while keeping most of it in place - except for a few underlings who were brought on "lip service" trials.
In reality this coup aims to liquidate the workers' struggle as the crackdown of Egyptian strokers and class-struggle union activists shows. Among the victims of this crackdown are 3 comrades, member of the Egyptian Libertarian Solidarity Movement, Mohamed Serag El-Din, Mohamed Ezz and Ali El-Kastawy.
To justify this coup de force, the coupists try to hide it under a democratic veneer using a referendum organised under suspicious circumstances.
The Coordination des Groupes Anarchiste (Coordination of Anarchist Groups-France) sends its solidarity to the Egyptian women and working class who rise up once again, this time against religious fascism. We especially affirm our support to the Egyptian anarchist comrades who fight for the anarchist alternative, in the heart of the popular revolt, as a bulwark against military and fascist authoritarism.
In Egypt as in France, fascism is as a gangrene: if we don't eradicate it, we die from it!

Thanks for dropping by the Trepidatious Traveller blog which is set out in three sections –
Camino blogs
Click on Camino Frances for daily reports from the Camino de Santiago (Frances route), 500+ miles across northern Spain from the Pyrenees through Santiago de Compostela to Finisterre – which I walked with my daughter in April/May 2013
In 2014 I walked the Camino Portuguese. I set off from Lisbon in May and travelled north through Portugal, across the Spanish border and on to Santiago de Compostela (670 km's). The daily posts are full of photos and useful information for future pilgrims.
2015 saw me walking the Camino Mozárabe from Málaga. This little walked camino is very lonely for the first 500 km and I was lucky to find a walking partner for company. We saw only three other pilgrims during eighteen days of walking. At Mérida the Mozárabe meets the Via de la Plata and there are many pilgrims from this point on. I took the Sanabrés variant of the VdlP and after reaching Santiago I walked on to Finisterre. 52 days walking and 1,365 kms. I provide a lot of information in these posts that I hope will be useful to future pilgrims taking this route.
I am planning another long walk for 2016, although not so long as the Mozárabe. I will commence walking from Irun on the Spanish side of the northern most point of the French border, and travel west along the north coast on the Camino del Norte as far as Ribadeo at which point this camino drops down inland towards Santiago and joins with the French route for the last 40 kms. I plan to remain on the coast and follow the Ruta do Mar as far as Ferrol. This is not a camino route and does not have the signage and accommodation infrastructure of the well known pilgrim ways. Once I have reached Ferrol I will walk the Camino Ingles into Santiago and possibly continue to Finisterre again. El Norte is a beautiful and rather challenging camino with a great deal of elevation to tackle most days.

First, if there is any commentary that the US Economy is not firing on all cylinders, you wouldn't have known it visiting PCBC. The builder and architect community that I spoke to at the event were all crazy busy. The general comments were along the lines of "we haven't been this busy since 2005″ and " we are having a hard time keeping up".
The show itself is experiencing somewhat of a resurgence with a reported attendance reaching the 20,000 mark for the first time in over a decade. The cautious optimism, experienced at last years event in San Diego has been replaced with a "we're going full throttle" as one Napa based residential builder commented. With the relatively weak Canadian Loonie and pent up demand, sales potential in the California market remains strong for BC producers.
Based on the feedback from our members and Sector Advisory Groups, BC Wood has put together a comprehensive list of market development activities for the coming year in Vancouver. Follow the links for information on a few we have limited space for our members in now:

I went with five other ladies and we all thought the show was fabulous. There was something for everyone in the lyrics and presentations. The presentation was great.
Imagine four women at a Bloomingdale's lingerie sale with little in common besides night sweats, memory loss, chocolate binges, not enough sex, too much sex, and more. Inspired by a hot flash and a bottle of wine, Menopause the Musical is a joyful celebration of women living through The Change. Featuring a parody of 25 re-lyricized classic Baby Boomer hits, the 90-minute show features such chart-toppers as "I Heard It Through the Grapevine," "You No Longer See 39" and the disco favorite "Stayin' Awake! Stayin' Awake!"_ Menopause the Musical _has been a runaway success with men and women ever since it opened at a tiny perfume shop-turned-theatre in Florida almost six years ago.

This past week provided a study in Christmastime contrasts.
On Friday, we celebrated a work-delayed Christmas in New Jersey with my wife's family, consisting of seven adults and two children, ages 8 and 2.
On Sunday, we celebrated a Christmas at home with my side of the family, consisting of 16 adults and nine children, ages between 15 and 7. A toddler and his parents couldn't be with us; his dad is laid up following recent surgery, and can't travel well until mid-January.
Among those 24 people expected Sunday, six "adults" are grandchildren or their significant others.
For the Friday celebration, gifts were fairly simple. Abby, 8, and Wyatt, 2, got the large stacks of presents. The rest of us got one or two gifts apiece.
For the Sunday celebration, the "big-family" rule applied: Nothing in the trash gets thrown away without a second in-the-garage search through the torn-apart wrappings. Inside, there could be an overlooked gift or, for that matter, a child, giggling at having hidden from the rest of us.
Well into January, we'll fondly recall the leisurely, child-centered gift opening session in New Jersey.
Well into January, we'll be remembering bits and pieces of the frenetic free-for-all that usually accompanies the big-family get-together.
Hershey bars are the great gift-leveler.
In buying gifts for some of the people attending either celebration, my tastes run from the bizarre to the banal, with occasional flashes of "Why, this is just what I needed!" brilliance. More often, when someone opens a gift that I have bought, there's a short silence and an earnest smile, along with a "Thanks, Grandpa ... I think."
So to ensure that everyone is happy, everyone gets a giant Hershey bar.
Who can argue with a Hershey bar? They're delectable and consumable and, to avoid confusion, each recipient's name is Sharpie-pen dabbed onto each bar.
For those few who might not covet chocolate, or who might be attempting to get rid of a post-holiday bloat by dieting, Hershey bars are eminently tradeable. "Hey, I'll give you my Hershey bar AND the gift from Grandpa in exchange for (whatever)...."
My wife puts thought into her gift-buying.
I go on impulse, and in batches.
Every year, I see something that could be an appropriate gift for one grandchild ... but might also work for several others. So the one grandchild who is thrilled by the ratcheting screwdriver with 24 bits and drivers is offset by others whose faces reflect the aforementioned halfhearted smiles.
Perhaps my gift-buying pattern is genetic.
When my own kids were children, my late mother insisted on buying pajamas for each of them, to be given to them on Christmas Eve and worn during the Christmas morning gift-opening session.
Mom thought pajamas with footies were cute; they are, but not on 15-year-old males. And, harking back to her own Depression-era youth, she always bought sizes that "they can grow into."
A toddler in a size 4T is cute.
An almost-man with shaving cream on half of his face, howling because he just stepped on a dragging footie and tripped himself into bouncing off the bathtub ... well, that is a Christmas morning memory of another sort.
With the cocky self-assurance that comes with thirtysomethng maturity, I used to make fun of Mom's gift-selection abilities with a patronizing smile.
Now, at seventysomething, I seem to have grown into those same warped selection criteria.
Oh, well. The Hershey bars make up for that, at least in part.
I never claimed to be a good gift-giver to my children or grandchildren, or to the extended cadre of them encompassed by my wife's family.
I do like to be a fun-spreading gift-giver. What I want them to remember is that, for all his goofiness, Grandpa did serve up love and affection, accompanied (most of the time) by laughter.
That is the common yarn knitting together the small-group and big-family gatherings that occur during Christmastime.
I remember with fondness my late mother-in-law's predilection to patterned sport shirts, cellophane-encased. The size was always correct, but the patterns dated back to the 1950s, and this was in the 1980s. My teenaged sons would look quizzically at me after opening one of Grandma's shirts, and I would shrug my shoulders with an air of "I got one too; just deal with it" resignation.
Some were exchanged. Others reposed inside dresser drawers until someone moved away, at which time they went to Goodwill Industries or the Salvation Army.
What remained, though, was the warm feeling that my sons and I felt as we both basked in Grandma and Grandpa's genuine affection.
That is what I hope my generation can now pass along to the younger folks. It's Christmas, and we cherish you.

Takata Expects $445 Million Special Loss on Recall
Japanese Air Bag Maker Hasn't Determined How Much Loss Will Hurt Results
TOKYO— Takata Corp. 7312 -0.81 % , the Japanese manufacturer of air bags subject to a series of large recalls, said Friday that it expected to book a roughly Y45 billion ($444.80 million) special loss related to the continuing problems.
The Tokyo-based company said it was still looking into how much the special loss, which would factor into its April to June earnings, would dent its results for the quarter. The company said in early May, before a number of major auto makers announced the recalls, that it projected a Y16 billion group net profit for the fiscal year ending in March.
Over the last five years, troubles with Takata air bags have led to recalls of around 12 million vehicles world-wide. In a handful of cases, the air bag inflaters have detonated with too much force, causing the air bag to rupture and metal parts to fly around the insides of cars. There have been a number of reports of injuries, and two deaths, stemming from the problem.
The recalls began in 2008 and have grown in scale since then. In the most recent example, the German auto maker BMW BMW 0.05 % said this week that it was recalling about 1.6 million cars world-wide from the 2000-2006 model years, in what it described as a "voluntary, precautionary" move. It said it had no reports of any air bags rupturing.
Takata last year took a charge of about $300 million to cover costs of previous recalls related to the problem, which the company has blamed on moisture entering the inflaters, either in the manufacturing process or during use.
Shiro Sakamaki, an analyst at Daiwa Securities Co. in Tokyo, questioned whether the projected special loss would cover all the costs related to the recent recalls. "The number sounds a bit small," he said.
Takata couldn't immediately be reached for further comment.
Analysts say air bag inflaters generally cost about $80, and labor costs could add several hundred dollars to the repair bill.
Takata and the affected auto makers haven't disclosed arrangements for covering the costs.
"It's a sensitive issue,'' Mr. Sakamaki said. "Takata and the car makers will want to maintain their relationships, but at the same time someone has got to pay."
