Above His Proper Station(The Fall of the Sorcerers, #2)
Anrel Murau, a simple scholar, is secretly the notorious revolutionary Alvos the Orator — the Empire's most wanted man. On the run and nearly penniless, Anrel finds himself forced to seek refuge in the capital city's Pensioner's Quarter, a den of thieves, murderers, and con men. Barely scraping out an existence on the fringe of respectable society, Anrel never forgets his demands for justice, nor the love of the woman he left behind.
The civil unrest that has long been simmering in the Empire is beginning to boil over into violent protests and Anrel's enemy, Lord Allutar, continues to corrupt the Grand Council.
But Anrel's alter ego, Alvos the Orator, has taken on a life of his own and many factions in the Grand Council seek a way to harness his followers' political might for their own ends. Which means they need Anrel to take on a surprising new role and gain access to one of the Empire's greatest secrets to stop the rampant evil.
The adventure of Alvos the Orator continues with more action, more intrigue, and more suspense than ever before as Anrel seeks to clear his name and seek retribution against his old enemy once and for all.

Bryan's Jewel with Alex CintronBryan's Jewel won the 109,125 Grade III Obeah Stakes at Delaware Park on Saturday afternoon.
The five-year-old won the 75,000 John Memorial just a week ago.
Bryan's Jewel with Alex Cintron had the slight edge over And Why Not with Joshua Navarro.
She ran the mile and an eighth with a 1:51.21 marked time over a fast main track. Bryan's Jewel has a career record of eight wins out of 23 starts.
The Obeah Stakes is the local prep race for the mile and a quarter $750,000 Grade I Delaware Handicap to be run on July 20.
McLean Robertson, the trainer of Bryan's Jewel is unsure if Bryan's Jewel will participate in the Delaware Handicap.
"We will see how she comes back,"Robertson said in a released statement. "She has made $200,000 for the year and she has a graded stakes win now. Obviously, we are here at Delaware Park, we like Delaware Park and we want to run in the Delaware Handicap especially because it is a Grade I, but she would have to be awful right to run in the race."

October 7th - January 30th, 2011
Art has become increasingly cross-disciplinary over the past several decades. Many artists today no longer confine themselves to one medium or one approach, but instead explore multiple materials and modes of creative expression. This phenomenon has affected ceramics as much as any other genre. Breaking Boundaries features the work of four Canadian artists under the age of 40 whose work illustrates a variety of cross-disciplinary approaches to contemporary ceramic art. Although each of these artists approaches ceramics from a different perspective and integrates clay with other materials in different ways, their work collectively makes a strong case that ceramics remains a vital and relevant part of contemporary art practice in the 21st century. The four artists included in the exhibition are Brendan Tang from British Columbia; Marc Courtemanche from Saskatchewan; Shary Boyle from Ontario; and Carmela Laganse from Quebec.

Exact replacement, great battery. Spins over real well!
good battery holds charge
Yuasa batteries are the best. They ship with the electrolyte in a separate container and the container is a clever design that makes it easy to fill and prep the battery. The battery is sealed and mantenance free after prep. Good starting power and decent life. I have used them in both bikes for years.
Good Price and was just what i needed for my Road King.
works well, fit's well I hate to do it but: time will tell fast shipping
After finally receiving a second battery, because the first one was cracked on delivery. I installed it and it seems to be working just as expected
Fit perfectly
easy to prepare, charged up fast, installed on 2002 HD FLHT had to use spacers, but lined up perfectly. I ordered this Battery on a Monday got it the next day! Thanks J&P for the great service, I been buying parts from you since 1999 and always been satisfied!
good battery but I have had it only 1 month and the bolts keep backing out because of the brass spacers you need to use on your harley, ...thinking for a few bucks more the harley battery would of been a better choice. If you buy this battery check the bolts daily they tend to loosen up quickly from the vibration. I never had this happen on all my harley batteries ever.
The activation was so easily clean, picked up charge quick, fresher than the factory activated version, but the hook up was hard on my '01 sportster custom. So far so good, my lights are brighter and turns over good.
Yuasa batteries are the best
Fast shipping good sales people very good item
Good service, quality merchandise, fast shipping.
disappointed about battery bei being a Chinese product. but kept it
Perfect condition when it shipped to my home. I got 12 years of service from the original battery, cleaned up the original connections with CRC cleaner & neutralizer, installed battery & then used CRC protector spray. Bike fired right up and headlight is bright again. Highly recommend this battery.
All the parts including the last order (Battery & Spark Plugs) have performed perfect. J&P is a great organization and I will recommend you to my friends.
Easy to prepare & easy to install! Very Happy with my purchase!
Very satisfied after initial shock of acid separate from battery! Read instructions, filled battery easily, charged, installed! Totally satisfied with order, delivery time frame, and product!
Appears to be a good quality battery. Set-up instructions were clear, although initial charging instructions were a little unclear.
Delivery was fast, set up was easy, and the battery starts my bike even after sitting for a month.
good deal on the battery
worked great turning over a high-compression high stroke 106"
Great battery turns my 93" shovel head over with no problem
Good battery ,last one was still good but 6 years old on a daily rider 365 days per year.
This battery is the perfect fit for my bike. Has a high crank amp too.
Was highly recommended by friends.I am very satisfied. old man 68.
First battery change since owning the bike for 7 years, so got the same battery again. Had to activate, but the directions were simple and you will need to charge before use, but only took three hours to complete.
easy ordering fast delivery and great fit

I really don't understand why you all think that being one is such a wonderful thing. To me it's like going back into my mothers womb. The whole "going back home" concept. Why would I want to do that?
Why would I want to be merged with people who I despise? Why would I want to give up my individuality. That is what makes me ME. It reminds me of the Star Trek Deep space nine episode, where Odo found some of his people and merged with them and how yeah it felt pretty good at first but after awhile it got annoying. All those thoughts all together. That episode creeped me out. I LIKE my individuality. I LOVE me. I love being different. The idea of having my thoughts, my being merged with others is like the Borg concept(yes Star Trek again )... one hive one mind. NO thank you. I like my mind where it is with me.
I mean come on..why would you want the thoughts of say Hitler or Draco or any sadistic murdering person roaming around in your energy? You can't tell me that those thoughts are not "allowed" and if that's so, there's another reason I don't like it. I want to be able to think whatever I want. I especially don't want others to know what I'm thinking ..again that's just creepy!
Now don't get me wrong I'm not saying that you shouldn't believe in it or like it or whatever. I just really want to try to understand why?

Twelve-year-old Breanna Franke has gotten used to two wheels over four.
Monday afternoon, Breanna's dad Joel Franke was able to shift around his schedule, work from home, and scoop her up from Prairie View Middle School after class let out.
Since the family lives within 2 miles of the school, the district said Breanna would not have a seat on the bus this year. The Franke's were able to fight the decision last year and get her a ride, but this year, they weren't so lucky.
With that, Breanna bikes the 1.9-mile route about every other day, joined by neighbors who have also been told the bus won't be picking them up this year. Most of that ride is along Highway 19.
"That mile and a half, there are cars driving right by you," Breanna said. "It can scare you sometimes."
There is a bike path, and the Franke's said that's why the district told them Breanna had to get her own transportation to school instead of catching the bus. However, Breanna said she doesn't feel safe on her commute right next to such a busy road.
"You're 10, 15 feet away. It doesn't protect you from anything," Breanna said.
Joel said he's not just worried about the distracted drivers his daughter has seen coming to and from school. When the winter hits, Joel said he and his wife, Kay-Tee, recognized what risks snow-covered, slippery roads can pose when cars are already going at high speeds.
Joel said he understands why the older students can handle it, but he is concerned about Breanna's safety.
"When you've got 65-pound, 11- and 12-year old little girls expected to go 2 miles on their own next to a busy highway of people doing 45, 55 miles per hour, and then crossing intersections where it's 45 and 55," Joel said. "I think that screams hazardous regardless of whether there's a bike path or not."
The intersection the Franke's are most worried about is at highways 19 and C. According to DOT documents Joel and his wife have acquired, on average, almost 12,000 cars passed through that traffic light each day in 2009.
In addition, Joel said he tallied up a dozen sex offenders living along his daughter's route to school, all with charges involving children.
"It is dollars and cents," Joel said, "and it shouldn't be at the expense of child safety."
Kay-Tee Franke told News 3 the Sun Prairie School District has been very receptive to their concerns, which are echoed by their neighbors in the same situation. She said Dane County deputies are expected to reevaluate the safety of Breanna's route in the near future.
"Just for us to sleep at night, knowing that she's going to walk along this dangerous highway," Joel said.
Kay-Tee added she plans to present her concerns with the school's policies, specifically those that ensure safe transportation for students and define what zones are hazardous throughout the district. The district's annual meeting will take place Monday, September 30, beginning at 7 p.m. at Sun Prairie High School.

Beatty attends U.S.-Africa Summit Dinner at White House
The Columbus Dispatch - August 06, 2014 02:04 PM
While most lawmakers are back in their district for the August recess, Rep. Joyce Beatty spent last night at the White House, attending the U.S.-Africa Summit dinner at the White House.
The dinner is part of a week-long summit with African leaders aimed at encouraging leaders of
African nations to build relationships and develop solutions on the continent.
Beatty attended the dinner with her husband, Otto Beatty, a lawyer and former Ohio state representative. Also at the dinner were the President and First Lady, Vice President Joe Biden and his wife, Jill, former President Jimmy Carter and Secretary of State John Kerry.
"Central Ohio is home to many nationalities from the African continent and the African diaspora, and I am glad to contribute to furthering relationships between the United States and African nations," Beatty, D-Jefferson Township, said. "I look forward to continuing to build partnerships with stakeholders to improve diplomatic, economic, and cultural relations between all our countries."

The UK Advertising Standards Authority are getting miffed at FCUK again and have warned FCUK, this is the 13th time since 1999 that the ASA has published an adjudication regarding French Connection's adverts.
The latest ads are for the FCUK perfume, with the usual fold-out samples, with pictures of a young couple sitting in a bed wearing only underwaer and the headline reads: "open here to try fcuk her" and "open here to try fcuk him."
FCUK argued that FCUK is the brand name and the headline clearly states open the fold-outs to try the perfumes named "him" and "her".
The ASA responded that in the context of the ad, the phrases "could be interpreted as 'fuck,' not just as the advertiser's brand name." and reminded French Connection "that it had previously made clear in published adjudications that 'fcuk' should not be used in an advertisement if it could be interpreted as 'fuck' and was concerned that they had done so in the advertisement."
The perfume ads were placed in Boots magazine and received only two complaints from the public.
Have you seen the new tee shirts for Democrats?
In huge caps on front/back - or small, delicate lettering embroidered on polo shirts (for the few Dems allowed into that Republican stronghold, the country club) ---
This is a very bad problem, a brand name that is similar to a foul word. I almost mistook it 2 times as well. This is because one of the most common errors in speed reading is transposed letters, resulting in a misinterpitation, and most people, including me will speed read to screen content they want to read.
I question I want to ask is: "Is FCUK playing a dirty joke?" I think whomsoever thought this up should have been fired from the ad agency. I also kept on wondering if it is an acrostic using french words that is to be used in future advertisements by FCUK. In a few cases, I've seen no connection with the brand name at first, then a year later, the advertiser reveals an element of the brand name, perhaps the way it was thought to be. Expect to see this no longer in existences soon.
Yawn. So tired of hearing about this. Wasn't there hubbub about the perfume in the states some time last year? I guess everytime someone gets riled up about the name, French Connection just smiles- they're getting plenty of free press.
There is a bad wind of conservative right-wing fundamentalistic Christian anti-sexuality blowing through the world. Beware, soon we all be Victorianistic victims with chastity-belts...
I'm sure Beattie gets a bonus every time a little FCUK controversy hits the papers. Or a boner.
While that article is mind-blowing, you should see that FCUK used to have a website, http://fcukinkybugger.com. Now the domain is up for sale.
New Marketing Strategy:
Use the full name (French Connection United Kingdom) instead of FCUK.
second note: Reverseing the 3rd and 4th words in the acrostic is results in something startling
Does the brand really wand a "United Connection Kingdom?"

Wallace Joins California Staff
from press release
BERKELEY, Calif. – Emma Wallace became the newest member of the California lacrosse team on Thursday, when first-year head coach Ginger Miles announced the hiring of her assistant coach. Wallace previously served as the varsity head coach of the Georgetown Visitation Preparatory School in Washington, D.C., and played collegiately at Johns Hopkins.
"Emma brings with her a great playing career at Johns Hopkins and was mentored by and worked with the great Janine Tucker there," Miles said. "She has a good amount of coaching experience already, having coached at a couple of different high schools and leading her team to a great 14-4 record last year at Georgetown Visitation. She's not unfamiliar with the recruiting game and also brings with her a marketing background, which will be a great addition to the staff. I'm excited about her passion for lacrosse, her excitement for the game and her desire to continue the growth of the sport out here on the West Coast."
Wallace, a 5-10 defender, played at Johns Hopkins from 2004-07 and was a member of three NCAA Tournament squads.
Prior to Georgetown Visitation, she was the varsity head coach at the Highland School in Warrenton, Va., and the head coach of the Upper Corner Lacrosse Club in northern Virginia. She has worked in various capacities outside of the lacrosse world, including as a marketing coordinator for Stanley, Oberon Division.
"The athletic program out here is fabulous," Wallace said. "Cal presents a really good opportunity in the lacrosse community to be a great program. The resources in place for the student-athletes are fabulous. What a great opportunity to be a part of a growing lacrosse program. I'm excited to be out here."
Wallace, whose father is British, is a dual citizen of the United Kingdom and the United States.

If you cater to families, you might consider adding some soy options to your menu. Why? A recent study suggests that girls and teens who consume soy regularly may see a reduced incidence of breast cancer later in life. Scientists have long recognized that Japanese women are much less likely to develop breast cancer than American women. Early on, it was proposed that the Japanese consumption of soy-based foods might be one reason for this difference. But over the past 20 years since the ...

Scoping out: make the internet work for your house hunting
Getting hold of information has become far easier than ever before
Searching for a house is an emotional experience. It can take many months to find exactly the right place, and then several more as you secure that first mortgage for a property and pass through all the processes associated with actually buying. By the time you actually move in, it can feel like you've run the homebuyer's equivalent of a marathon.
When you are viewing houses each weekend, there are few worse feelings than turning up to meet an estate agent at the front door of a potential property and finding that it looks nothing like it did in the details. Unless you know an area well, it can be difficult to filter out genuinely tempting properties from the hundreds that are sent to you.
Choosing your first mortgage, or using the internet to compare mortgage rates, or even looking at second mortgages for an existing property you own, is an important part of staying realistic and in control of what you can afford. A good way to find out how much your monthly repayments will be is to use a mortgage calculator.
House search
The good news is that, as with many things, the internet has made getting hold of information far easier than ever before. The first step to take is to create an account at several of the property aggregator services that allow you to browse hundreds of house details at the click of a mouse. Set your filters to focus in on your preferred price range, style of home, number of bedrooms and areas and services such as Rightmove, Zoopla or FindaProperty.com can sort out the wheat from the chaff even before you contact an estate agent.
As soon as you see something you like, the next thing to do is to check where it is. While just five years ago, this used to involve combing the streets on foot, the obvious step is now to take up your mouse and become a Google gumshoe. By using the search giant's online maps, especially the Street View feature, which allows 360-degree street-level aspects, you can easily view the neighbourhood.
This can give you vital details including what the parking is like nearby or whether, when you look out of your living room window, you are likely to be confronted by a sea of wheelie bins. By cross-referencing this with the bird's eye feature from Bing Maps, you can really get a feel for the area and by using Police.uk, you can check on the crime and anti-social behaviour levels in the area.
The bottom line...
Once you get to the stage of thinking about making an offer, it's good to have all the information to hand. Knowing the exact price the seller paid for it puts you in a strong position.
The free OurProperty.co.uk uses Land Registry data so you can see, for example, that the house you want to buy sold for 25 per cent less a few years ago. For the savvy buyer, this could mean two things: either the present owner has spent a lot of money doing up a property that was barely habitable when they took it on; or they are overestimating the value of their home. Either way, the information gives you the chance to make a considered judgement as to whether the price you see in the details is a fair one - or whether the owner may be open to an offer.
And by comparing the land registry data with the Nationwide and Halifax house price indices, you can get an idea of the overall housing landscape since your target property was last sold. Just use it for a guide and bear in mind that what prices have been doing may vary even among areas within a single town.
Finally, if you are not at the stage of actively looking to buy (or sell), you can use Zoopla's TemptMe service to register interest in a specific property, and be alerted if it comes on the market - and if you are the owner, you can hang a tentative price tag on your home to see if anyone bites.
When you've bought that dream home, remember that early repayment charges apply during the fixed-rate period. Your home may be repossessed if you do not keep up repayments on your mortgage.

What is in this article?:
- Farm program cuts to be deep
- DP main target
- Budget cuts deep for ag
- Direct payments singled out
- New leadership
Significant cuts are coming to farm programs when the next farm bill becomes law, probably in 2012.
"All signs point to less of a safety net. I can't put a positive spin on what's happening in Washington," said Joe Outlaw, professor and Texas AgriLife Extension economist. "Congress can't take less money and make everyone better off."
How deep could the cuts go? Depends on whose numbers get the most attention, but proposed cuts by either the National Commission on Fiscal Responsibility and Reform or the Bipartisan Policy Center indicate severe reductions, Outlaw said.
The former would eliminate $1 billion out of a $6 billion total. The latter would take $3billion, half the current budget.
"The 2002 farm bill had $11 billion in the commodity program," Outlaw said during the Texas Plant Protection Association annual conference in College Station. "In 2008, we got $6 billion." Funding for crop insurance doubled and nutrition program funds more than doubled.
Outlaw said 38 programs in the 2008 farm bill do not have baselines to carry them forward. He said one possibility congress might consider is redirecting funds to "those at risk. For sorghum, cotton, rice and wheat, direct payments are going to landowners. The safety net is not going to farmers."

Pecanios, or Maple Pecan Tartlets
These pecan tartlets are one of my favorite winter sweets to make, so I'd better publish this recipe before the weather gets too balmy. They're easy to make, and unlike traditional pecan pie recipes, don't require any corn syrup, which we can't buy in France or Switzerland.
I use a flexible silicone tartlet mold for these, though I'm sure you can make them with regular muffin molds. The advantage of the shallow tartlet form is the ease with which you can fit the dough in the indentations: cut out dough with a circular cookie cutter, place the circle of dough on the indentation, push down gently with your thumb, done.
You can see the black tartlet form I used at the bottom of this pile of molds (from an earlier post on my fixation with silicone molds). Click to enlarge the photo.
Recipe: Pecanios (Maple Pecan Tartlets)
Source: I believe these were inspired by a recipe from Bon Appetit, though I made some changes.
Ingredients for the shells
- 1/2 cup butter
- 1/4 cup brown sugar or less
- 1 beaten egg
- 1 packet vanilla sugar (or 1 tspn vanilla extract)
- 1 3/4 to 2 cups cake flour
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
Shell preparation
Cream butter to soften; add brown sugar and beat until light and fluffy. Beat in egg and vanilla. Mix together the flour and salt; blend into the creamed mixture.
Roll out the dough thinly, then chill it, as described here and here. Or proceed as you normally would for cut-out cookies. The thinner the dough, the better, or these tartlets get heavy.
Cut with cookie cutters into circles. Place circles in little tartlet molds (or cupcake molds). Chill while you prepare the filling.
Ingredients for the filling
- 1/4 cup sugar
- 1 large egg
- 1/4 cup maple syrup = 90g
- 1 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
- 1 packet vanilla sugar (or 1 tspn vanilla extract)
- 2/3 to 3/4 cups chopped pecans
Filling preparation
Preheat oven to 180°C. Whisk first 5 ingredients in medium bowl to blend. Mix in pecans. Spoon into unbaked shells. Bake tartlets until set, about 20 minutes. Transfer to rack; cool.
Update March 4th: I followed Kai's suggestion and named these "Pecanios..." Thanks for the idea!

I can't wait to try these! My friend brought me two huge bottles of corn syrup last summer so I could make pecan pie and coconut macaroons, but I'm so scared to use it that I've only made one pecan pie so far (it was awesome!). So I'm excited to try this corn syrup-free recipe. One question... the recipe calls for "cake flour" (aka 6-8g protein)which we can't buy in CH. Which flour did you use?
- February 23, 2007 11:33 AM
- Astrid said...
Hi Tanya - Oh, I don't think I pay attention, I use regular white flour. You can use Zopfmehl too, no? It really makes no difference. Let me know how they turn out!

Astrid, these are gorgeous...now the question is how many can I put in my mouth at one time? That first picture is perfect

They look so delicious, and the pics too.

- Kai Carver said...
Let me suggest again you call these delicious little pecan treats "pecanios" (a play on "pequeño"). The word is not taken, according to google.
- March 04, 2007 7:58 AM
- Astrid said...
Helene - Yes, pecan pie without the guilt... sort of!
Zorra - Thank you for your kind comment!
Kai - Pecanios it is...
- March 04, 2007 8:32 PM
About how many tartlets does this yield? Looks perfect for our upcoming Thanksgiving celebration! Thanks.
- November 23, 2008 3:48 PM
- Astrid said...
Hi Louise,
I must say, I haven't made these since I posted about them! Which is a shame, but I guess I moved on to other projects.
If memory serves, this is not a very large batch, maybe 24 little tartlets? Sorry I'm so unsure. But try doubling the recipe to be sure.
And do let me know how they work out for you!

Sound: After viewing 36 Crazyfists' Underneath A Northern Sky the 2009 DVD that played out as somewhat of an homage of sorts to the band's frosty hometown in Alaska it's difficult not to have a better grasp on how the band's music has developed over the years. The latest step in that evolution arrives with 36 Crazyfists' fifth studio album Collisions and Castaways, one that delves into various aspects of the musical spectrum along with your standard metalcore. The record certainly trades off gruff/death vocals with melodic choruses, but there are more than a few moments when you'll hear instrumental interludes and restrained, gain-free guitar licks At the heart of the album is the work of guitarist Steve Holt, who not only shows his technical prowess, but also his proficiency in the studio as producer. While there are a few songs like Reviver that are carried by the main underlying melody, most of the tracks stand out because of the excellent riffage. The opener In The Midnights first sounds as if it will be essentially the album's overture with an emotional acoustic intro, but the track quickly builds and transitions into an electric powerhouse. 36 Crazyfists doesn't stick with just one formula, and that's the big selling point of the record. While plenty of metalcore bands rely on your standard screamed/growled verse and clean chorus, Collisions and Castaways isn't afraid to strip it all back with a song like Caving In Spirals. While it's not as mellow as some rock tunes out there, it's certainly one of the most subdued on the album. Long Road To The Late Nights is an instrumental that once again accentuates Holt's ability to write a strong composition regardless of the genre.For as low-key as 36 Crazyfists can become, Collisions and Castaways shines in the aggressive moments. Whitewater and Death Renames The Light is carried by grooving, rough riffage, while the latter is an excellent example of Brock Lindow's strength as a capable frontman. Elsewhere Anchors, which features Adam Jackson of Twelve Tribes and Raithon Clay of Plans To Make Perfect, contains a fantastic breakdown that has somewhat of a Lamb of God vibe to it. Collisions and Castaways isn't a perfect album, but 36 Crazyfists venture into some new territory and continue to keep things intriguing. // 8
Lyrics: I really wanted to talk about what has hampered progress for me in my life, Brock Lindow has said about his latest work on Collisions and Castaways. The latest album most definitely is an emotional journey that comes through each of the 11 tracks. Whether he examines the imperfection of past actions in Mercy and Grace (Untangle me from my detest; Untangle my wreck; Slowly but surely we're dining in a table of regret) or examining inner flaws in Trenches (I can't be reached in this soulless design; Capsized my insides). Collisions and Castaways is a heart-wrenching diary of sorts from Lindow, and that honesty should connect with plenty of listeners. // 9
Overall Impression: There has been discussion that Collisions and Castaways is 36 Crazyfists' heaviest album yet, and there are moments when that is an accurate statement. But on the same token, it's a record with depth and emotional ups/downs. It's not necessarily a perfect album from start to finish and a few songs do lag, but on the whole Collisions and Castaways is another solid offering from Alaska's pride and joy. // 9
Sound: 36 Crazyfists have a solid, and popular back catalogue amongst their fans, and their latest effort, Collisions And Castaways is no different. It is a very solid album. However, as with each of their albums, some of the songs don't stand out, and lack in that something special that the classic Crazyfists songs have.
This said, the album manages to create a good vibe, and blends the melodic with the heavy, The Deserter is heavier than a lot of previous songs. I think the main thing that struck with this album is the groove that it gives off, the rhythms in the majority of the songs are really quite amazing, and very fun to listen to. // 7
Lyrics: Brock Lindow is like marmite, and I can see why people may not like his style. This album shows his skills just as well as any other album, and he always injects a huge amount of energy into the vocals. As already mentioned, the music on the album is highly rhythmic. There are no spectacular fireworks in any section, but this gives 36 Crazyfists some of their charm, they don't try too hard, and still come out with some solid music. // 7
Overall Impression: Comparing to other albums, I think Collisions And Castaways may not stand out as better than any other record, but its worth giving it a listen. Whitewater, Death Remains The Light and Reviver are perhaps the best songs, and overall the album is good, just not stand out amazing, and I have to admit, The Tide and its Takers was better, still... Well done guys, keep it up. // 7

text: Hello everyone! Ok so I'm super frustrated! Past 2 nights my 3 month old gets fussy and doesn't want to nurse. He starts crying hysterically and sticking his hands in his mouth. He also drools alot and will chew on anything he can get his little hands on. He will do this for like an hour until he gets tired enough and falls asleep. Can he possibly be teething this early? What can I do to help him? He doesn't want to nurse which is so frustrating! I feel helpless for the first time. any insight?

NY distracted driving fines rise
According to information posted on www.distraction.gov, laws regarding distracted driving vary widely from state to state. Pennsylvania, for instance, has a ban on texting for all drivers, but there is no ban on the use of cell phones.
Mississippi has a ban on the use of cell phones and texting for bus drivers, and texting for novice drivers, but there are no bans on either for most drivers, and there is a state law that prohibits municipalities from enacting distracted driving bans.
Only two states, Montana and South Dakota, have no laws on the books regarding distracted driving.

I've got a confession. When it comes to tarpon, I'm giant poseur. I tie flies for tarpon, I have books on tarpon and, with the exception of a flats boat, am completely outfitted to fly fish for tarpon. I know all the lingo. I know the places to fish. I know the time of year to fish those places. I know all about palolo worm hatch and the dates, tides, and moon phases in which it should occur. And I'm all talk.
I have jumped, not caught, but jumped, one tarpon in my life. And that was from a bridge. At night. While baitfishing. And it was a baby.
I managed to jump this tarpon on my first and only trip to the Florida Keys. My buddy Merlin and I went down there as a sort of therapy for the previous year that was filled with hospitalized children, divorce and house fires. Basically 2009 sucked real bad for the both of us and getting away from home for some serious fishing/drinking was what we decided would be the best course of action for our mental stability.
We didn't have the money for a guide so the idea was to buy drinks for locals in every bar we could until we found someone willing to take us out. That didn't work out due to high winds and us being drunken idiots, so we stuck to bridge fishing. Merlin doesn't fly fish (and once told me that he wouldn't start fly fishing until he got bored with actually catching fish), so baitfishing it was. This is how I found myself stuck into a 20 or 30 pound tarpon from a bridge one night.
That, coupled with the sight and sound of much bigger tarpon crashing bait, was the beginning of an obsession. When we left the Keys I was bound and determined to come back the next year and catch one of those fish on a fly rod.
The idea of hooking into a hundred pounds of thrashing silver scales and muscles and then making it my bitch had a lot of appeal to me. In my mind, tarpon became some sort of sea dragon and I was going to slay said dragon… figuratively.
I went into heavy research mode when I got back home. I learned everything I could about the silver king and how to catch them on the fly. I studied maps. I made plans. I bought myself a heavy rod, a good reel and tied dozens of tarpon flies. I was ready.
Due to circumstances beyond my control, I never got back to the Keys. My big rod and boxes of tarpon flies are collecting dust. This spring is shot and the next is doubtful. But eventually I'll get my chance to try and slay a dragon. And if I get beaten down, well at least I was there to be beat.

Bode Miller, who was one of the top contenders in the men's downhill event, failed to earn a place on the podium Sunday. The American's eighth-place finish was a major disappointment on Day 2 of the 2014 Olympics after he saw so much success four years ago.
The New York Times' Olympic feed passed along word of Miller's downhill fate, as well as reaction from his teammate, Travis Ganong:
No medal for Bode Miller in the downhill. After starting fast, he lost time at the bottom and stands in 6th after 15 skiiers.— NYT Olympics (@SochiNYT) February 9, 2014
Bode Miller's teammate Travis Ganong on Miller's mistake: "Bummer for him. Critical mistake at the wrong part of the course."— NYT Olympics (@SochiNYT) February 9, 2014
More from Ganong on Miller mistake: "Pinched a left-footed turn and hit the gate panel. Heading into an uphill you can't lose speed there."— NYT Olympics (@SochiNYT) February 9, 2014
USA Today's Joe Fleming provides his finishing time:
No good for Bode Miller. 2:06.75. Sixth— Joe Fleming (@ByJoeFleming) February 9, 2014
The Wall Street Journal noted the medal winners for the event:
Austrian Matthias Mayer wins the men's downhill. Christoff Innerhofer of Italy (silver) and Kjeitel Jansrud of Norway (bronze). #Sochi— WSJ Sports (@WSJSports) February 9, 2014
Fleming and Roxanna Scott, also of USA Today, tweeted out photos of an understandably disappointed Miller:

Bode Miller disappointed with his downhill run, coming in sixth with 35 skiers left. #Sochismg via @guygruber pic.twitter.com/vl865YOxhL— Roxanna Scott (@roxscott) February 9, 2014
Making his fifth Olympic appearance for the United States, the 36-year-old was coming off his best Games after winning three medals, including a gold, in Vancouver.
He was confident about his chances in 2014. Barry Svrluga of The Washington Post provided comments from the skier ahead of the competition. Miller felt his preparation was putting him in a position to succeed:
I'd say I have a lot more experience. I know what the process is. It's easy for guys who are so excitable to push too hard, to do too much too early. I definitely know that winning a training run doesn't matter much. I've done that so many times. I think I have a good process for how to build into a race.
Unfortunately for Miller, things didn't play out as he hoped. Coming up short of the podium amid such high expectations is shades of 2006, when he arrived to Turin, Italy, with plenty of hype but failed to win a single medal.
Make no mistake: The Sochi course was providing a formidable test for the skiers. Miller had solid training runs, though, and appeared poised to bring home another medal.
What type of lasting legacy will Miller have?
A lack of regular competition over the past couple of years due to a knee injury could have been a factor. He hasn't needed that extra gear as often as he would have probably liked in between Olympics, but he arrived to Sochi healthy and ready to go.
In the end, it simply didn't translate into success in the downhill, the first Alpine skiing event of the Games. It shows that the margin for error, even for the top athletes in any discipline, is extremely thin on the Olympic stage.
The failure to medal in the downhill event will put extra pressure on Miller for the rest of the Olympics, but as Charles Robinson of Yahoo! notes, his best opportunities to medal are in front of him:
Bode Miller's flameout in downhill is a disappointment, but it wasn't his likely medal event. Super-G and super combined will be best shots.— Charles Robinson (@CharlesRobinson) February 9, 2014
If he can bounce back, the event will become an afterthought. If not, it will get viewed as the start of another frustrating Games for the American.

Helping Patients Avoid Kidney Stones
Here are simple steps to help your patients avoid kidney stones.
- Encourage patients to drink plenty of water or other fluids, staying ahead of their thirst.
- Diets including generous amounts of vegetables, fruits, and beans are rich in potassium and very low in sodium.
- If you prescribe calcium supplements, encourage patients to take them with meals, rather than between meals.
- Encourage patients to avoid animal products. Their proteins and sodium content increase the risk of stones.
Patients should keep salt and sugar use modest.

Sarah Roell's journey to Eastern medicine started with a pain in her wrist.
At the time, her physician recommended a brace for her agonizing repetitive stress syndrome.
She sought an alternative route: acupuncture. It produced impressive results and even cleared up her headaches.
That's when she decided to go from patient to practitioner. Roell recently opened Acupuncture & Wellness at 1269 S. High St. in Merion Village. She rents space inside Central City Chiropractic.
She studied at the American Institute of Alternative Medicine in the Northland area, and later completed some advanced training in China, and is both nationally certified and licensed in the state of Ohio.
Roell said she understands people's apprehension to acupuncture, but steadfastly defends the method.
"It's been around for 5,000 years so there's got to be something to it," she said. "Some people don't realize it's an option."
Those who practice traditional Chinese medicine believe in a life force called qi (pronounced chee), which flows through the body in pathways called meridians. When there is blockage, it creates an imbalance and therefore pain or illness.
To unblock it, flexible needles are inserted in the skin, stimulating specific points in the body and re-establishing flow through the meridians.
Acupuncturists maintain that the treatments helps with chronic pain, sleep disorders, stress, depression, anxiety and a number of other issues, Roell said. She also performs other traditional Chinese medicine, such as tui na, sometimes referred to as Chinese massage, and gua sha, a gentle scraping of the skin.
Roell, 29, received her undergraduate degree from Northern Kentucky University in mathematics and planned to become a high school teacher.
After deciding teaching wasn't for her, she went on to work as an administrator and accountant for a local planning firm.
Roell, who's married to Tony Roell, a member of the Merion Village Association, said her new career is rewarding.
"Helping people with problems that they have all but accepted makes me realize that I have found my place in the world," she said. "I'm excited to be part of the Merion Village community and to be able to bring acupuncture to the South Side of Columbus."

You will need a stainless-steel pan, large enough for all the ingredients. Tie the peppercorns, allspice, and cloves in cheesecloth. This ketchup will improve with age.
Sometimes it seems as though the site has grown an attitude. "Won't update me, eh? Well guess what you jerk, I won't let you update at all! Stick that in your pipe and smoke it!"
For the past week I've been trying to nail down a php error that has been giving me blank pages while trying to login, edit pages or simply refreshing pages. Only last night was I able to whip things into shape, so I'm going to go ahead and get something up while I have a chance. Even worse is the fact that I'd announced on my Facebook page that I planned on updating days ago only to be made a liar by my own website. That'll teach me to open my fat mouth.
Regardless, I'm here and I'm writing about the process for making ketchup. That's all that really matters. I'd like to take a minute to point out how looney it might seem to be making ketchup when grabbing a cheap bottle at the store takes only a fraction of time with fairly consistent results. I say "looney" because that what I literally—yes, literally and not figuratively—was called by more than one person when they asked what recipe I was working on next.
Aside from a large stainless-steel pan I also needed a lot of tomatoes, a bunch of apples, an amount of sugar capable of giving someone type two diabetes, and more than enough malt vinegar for 173 orders of fish and chips. Not pictured was half a dozen onions because I forgot to pick them up and had to go back to the store shortly afterwards. Sigh.
Once I'd picked up the onions my lovely wife and I started on prep for making ketchup. While I began roughly chopping the Roma tomatoes…
… my wife peeled and cored all of the apples we needed.
Fifteen minutes later we'd chopped the onions, apples and tomatoes roughly. I love it when the recipe calls for a rough chop. My OCD gets set aside and I just get the job done rather than stressing over exact cuts.
Everything—and I mean everything, vinegar, spices and sugar—went into the only stainless-steel pot I had that was large enough to hold it all. I can't imagine how big a pan would have to be to hold all of these ingredients. Because I had run out of cheesecloth on a previous recipe all of the spices were free to roam carelessly through the other ingredients in the pot. It wasn't ideal to say the least but I knew everything would work out down the line. You'll see.
After two hours of simmering the apples, onions and tomatoes had softened to the point of disintegration. Everything in the pot went through a sieve to ensure that there was a constant texture to end product and by doing so it also happened to remove all of the spices that should have been wrapped in cheesecloth. Given the chance I highly recommend using the spice bag method but if you're making a bunch of ketchup with no cheesecloth you're not completely out of luck.
There is something that I should mention that's not in the book: There was an excessive amount of liquid that needed to be removed from the apple-onion-tomato slurry before it could be called ketchup. As I ran the mixture through a sieve over 2.5 liters or a little above a half gallon of water was leftover. I kept it all just incase I would have needed it to thin out the ketchup, but that was't the case in the end. If anything, I could have removed more moisture to improve the texture of the ketchup.
The ketchup was boiled one more time to remove the rest of the excess moisture and to improve the texture. I poured everything into my second largest plastic food container to let the condiment "find its feet" over the next few days as Mr. Henderson suggests.
Soon thereafter my wife and I invited some friends over for an evening of fish and chips, drinks, and Cards Against Humanity. While the ketchup wasn't the star of the show by any stretch of the imagination, it didn't stand out like a sore thumb, either. The flavor was ever so slightly sweeter but with a spicier undertone than normal ketchup that made it much more interesting than anything you could find in a plastic bottle one could purchase at your local megamart. Otherwise it was ketchup. Hand-made, delicious ketchup. I can't wait to can it and hand it out to my friends and family. Aside from the looney comments I know they'll appreciate the effort that went into this condiment.
One down, thirty one to go.

back from portland, again
Mar 11th 2007 10:09:39 pm
I am exhausted. We had a good day in Portland, but man, a weekend goes fast when you are driving four hours a day. I handed out my survey to the vendors at Crafty Wonderland. Here is a picture of me in front of the sign for proof. All of the crafters were just lovely and so kind. I already received seventeen of the surveys back today. My goal is to get twenty. I gave out thirty-five and the people who didn't give me theirs today have envelopes to mail them to me. So, I think I will reach my goal easily. If anyone from Crafty Wonderland is reading this, thank you so much for your help! I also bought a bunch of great stuff at Crafty Wonderland that I will photograph and post about later. There are so many amazing craft artists out there!
After handing out the survey, Travis and I went to Chipotle for lunch and then went and finally bought the extension corner desk for our office. We are too tired to set it up now, but I will post pictures once I find some energy. I am so excited that Travis and I will actually be able to work in the same room together from now on!
(The top photo is from our front yard. The bushes and daffodils are blooming. Spring comes early in Oregon!)

Photo Flash: First Look at Farah Alvin, Natalie Venetia Belcon and More in THE LAST SMOKER IN AMERICA!
The four member cast features Drama Desk Nominee Farah Alvin (The Marvelous Wonderettes) as Pam, Natalie Venetia Belcon (Avenue Q) as Phyllis, John Bolton (A Christmas Story, "Gossip Girl") as Ernie, and Jake Boyd (MCC's Carrie) as Jimmy.
In a world where smoking has recently been outlawed and the penalties are growing stricter by the minute, Pam is having an impossible time trying to quit. Her husband Ernie dreams of being a rock star and relentlessly practices his guitar in the basement, while their videogame-addicted son Jimmy listens to so much rap music he thinks he's black. As if Pam isn't pushed to The Edge of reason already, her nosy, anti- smoking zealot neighbor Phyllis is on a mission to catch transgressors mid-puff. Will Pam kick the habit or fight for her right to light up? The Last Smoker in America delivers explosive satire and smoking wit, along with a thrilling rock score that will leave you craving for more.
The musical received a developmental workshop production at the New York Musical Theatre Festival in the fall of 2009, where it extended and played to sold-out audiences. In the fall of 2010, The Last Smoker in America received its world premiere at CATCO (Columbus, Ohio), where additional performances were added due to popular demand.The creative team includes Charles Corcoran (sets), Michael McDonald (costumes), 2012 Tony Award®-winner Jeff Croiter & Grant Yeager (lights), Bart Fasbender (sound), and Jay Binder (casting). Roger Alan Gindi is the General Manager and Pamela Edington is the Production Stage Manager.
The producers for the New York run of The Last Smoker in America include Andy Sandberg, Whitney Hoagland Edwards, Michael Palitz, and Stephanie Rosenberg.
The producers of The Last Smoker in America recently announced they will host the first ever Smoke-In/Smoke-Out on the occasion of the show's opening night. On one side of this dueling event, smokers wishing to give up the habit will be encouraged to throw away their packs of cigarettes and quit cold turkey. These discarded cigarettes will be collected and delivered to the other side of the event, where nicotine enthusiasts will be invited to puff away on them, guilt-free, among like-minded smokers. All of Broadway's iconic smokers are welcome to participate, on either side of the event, including but not limited to: Vanessa Redgrave, Lauren Bacall, John Larroquette and more, as well as anonymous members of the public. Join The Last Smoker in America and the first ever Smoke-In/Smoke-Out set for Thursday, August 2nd in front of The Westside Theatre (407 West 43rd Street). Festivities begin at 5:30 p.m.
