Curry County Commissioner Wendell Bostwick has asked for an attorney general opinion on a $36,000 a year private consultant contract awarded Curry County Sheriff Matt Murray to supervise jail operations.
"A timetable has not been set for this matter, however, a thorough effort is being made to render a decision as quickly as possible," AG Gary King's spokesperson Lynn Southard said Friday.
Although Southard didn't indicate who asked for the opinion, state Sen. Stuart Ingle of Portales said he forwarded a request to King sent to him by a Curry County commissioner.
Bostwick acknowledged late Friday that he made the request.
Murray said via email Saturday that he wasn't aware of the request for the opinion. He also said " my contract has to do with my consulting business and the County. It is separate from the Sheriff position or the Sheriff's Office."
Bostwick questioned the contract when it was put to a vote and approved May 21, saying it seemed to be an attempt to thwart state laws that set the sheriff's salary at about $53,000 a year and other laws that specify the sheriff is responsible for running the jail.
The contract was approved on a 3-1 vote with Bostwick voting against and Tim Ashley abstaining. County Attorney Steve Doerr said at the time the contract was not an increase to the sheriff's salary but a monthly additional amount providing consulting services.

The Pickerington High School Central football team had four players from the 2014 senior class sign to play collegiately Feb. 5.
Andrew Meyer (WR) and Brennan Dudziak (OL) signed with Ohio University.
Signing with Division II programs were Tawain Gordon (RB/DB) with Ohio Dominican and Vince Lewis (OL) with Ashland.
Last season, Dudziak made first-team all-league and first-team all-district in Division I as the Tigers finished 8-3 overall and 6-1 in the OCC-Ohio Division to earn a share of the league title.
Lewis was second-team all-league and Gordon made honorable mention. Meyer missed most of last season with an injury but returned late in the season to contribute to the Tigers' playoff run.
In addition, 2012 Central graduates Roger Lewis (WR) and Marcus Milton (DB) signed letters of intent to play for Bowling Green.
Lewis and Milton both attended Jireh Prep in Matthews, N.C., before signing. Lewis verbally committed to Ohio State during the summer before his senior season at Central but didn't sign.
Both were contributors in 2011 when the Tigers were Division I state runners-up.

The program is best suited for students, ages 12 and older, who are already members of a swim team or are considering joining one. The clinic is limited to 36 swimmers and will be taught by David Prutow, who over his 30-year career coaching the sport led high school teams in New Jersey to win two state championships, nine county titles and 10 conference championships. He retired as the sixth winningest coach in the state's history. He has developed swimmers to the high standards of the YMCA and USA Swimming, with many advancing to the Junior and Senior National qualifiers.

This species is a type of land hermit crab with a spectacular appearance and intriguing biology. It is probably the largest terrestrial arthropod in the world and is able to grow to relatively gigantic proportions (2). Indeed, Charles Darwin described the coconut crab as "monstruous" when he encountered it on the Keeling Islands during the voyage of the Beagle (3). Unlike most other hermit crabs, only the very small juveniles of this species find and use gastropod shells to protect their soft-skinned abdomen as they develop. Larger juveniles abandon the shell-carrying habit, and instead their abdomen develops a hard skin, the exoskeleton, as over the rest of the body (4). This protects the crab, reduces water loss and does not restrict its growth, allowing it to reach up to a metre in size toe-to-toe (2). This huge crustacean is well adapted to life on land with long strong legs. It also has large muscular claws which are used for husking coconuts and opening the shell to eat the flesh (4). This is a unique behaviour amongst crabs and explains why this species is called the coconut crab. The claws are in fact so powerful they can lift objects such as vegetation or rocks weighing up to 28 kilograms (5). Its stalked eyes are red, and this crab's body colour varies between islands from purplish-blue to orange-red (6). Studies show that males are considerably larger than females (2).

Healthy Banana Honey Ice Cream Sandwiches
March 28, 2014
I have to admit that I have been a bit slow to jump on the one-ingredient banana ice cream bandwagon. I keep seeing recipes for creamy banana "ice cream" popping up everywhere but as someone who takes ice cream very seriously I was skeptical to say the least. That being said I am so glad I finally overcame my skepticism and tried it. It is seriously delicious. Sweet, creamy and refreshing just like ice cream should be. In the interest of total honesty I will say that banana ice cream will not replace real ice cream for me, but it does completely satisfy the desire for a sweet frozen treat in a much healthier way. Plus it is much quicker and easier to make and doesn't require an ice cream maker so that is an added bonus. My kids absolutely adore this, especially when I turn it into ice cream sandwiches, and I have sold them on the fact that it is a special treat. When they have these healthy (and delicious) ice cream sandwiches in their hands we all happy.
The cookie I used for these ice cream sandwiches is a honey sweetened almond-flour based cookie. To my taste the cookies are a bit too sweet by themselves but they are the perfect compliment to the creamy banana ice cream. Even better, since they are grain-free these ice cream sandwiches are perfect for Passover and are a nice change to the standard cakes and cookies.

Healthy Banana Honey Ice Cream Sandwiches
March 28, 2014
Ingredients & Instructions
Ingredients & Quantities
1 1/4 cup (5 oz) blanched almond flour
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 cup (2 oz) coconut oil
1/4 cup (3 oz) honey
1 cup (6 oz) mini chocolate chips
3 ripe bananas
Cooking Instructions
Combine the almond flour, salt and baking soda in a large bowl. In another bowl stir together the oil and honey. Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and stir to combine. Stir in the chocolate chips.
Form the mixture into 1/2 inch balls and press onto a parchment lined baking sheet. Bake for 7-10 minutes or until lightly browned and set.
Transfer the parchment with the cookies to a cooling rack and let cool completely.
Cut the bananas into one inch pieces and place them on a parchment lined plate or cookie sheet. Freeze until firm, 1-2 hours.
Place the cookies, still on the parchment, in the freezer and freeze until firm.
Remove the bananas from the freezer and process them in the food processor and blender until smooth and creamy. Depending on the size and power of your food processor it may be necessary to do this in batches.
Scoop a small amount of the banana ice cream onto the flat side of a cookie and top with the flat side of a second cookie. Repeat with the rest of the ice cream and cookies. Wrap each ice cream sandwich individually in plastic wrap, place in an airtight bag or container, and return the sandwiches to the freezer to firm up, at least 30 minutes.
Remove the ice cream sandwiches from the freezer and let them stand at room temperature for five minutes before serving so that the banana can return to the perfect creamy consistency.
These ice cream sandwiches are best the day they are made, because that is when there is the most contrast in texture between the cookie and the creamy filling. They can be made up to a week in advance (and I often do that just to have them on hand) but the cookie will become softer the longer they sit.

Jessie Korpess stands beside a cake and flowers as she prepares to celebrate her 100th birthday with friends and family. Approximately 150 people turned out on Saturday afternoon at the Royal Canadian Legion Club to wish the centenarian Prince Albert resident a happy birthday.
Surrounded by friends and family as she prepared to celebrate her 100th birthday, Jessie Korpess was well aware of her good fortune.
"I feel very good," the centenarian Prince Albert resident said. "I'm lucky to be as healthy as I am," she added.
Her feelings were shared by the estimated 150 well-wishers who turned out on Saturday afternoon at the Royal Canadian Legion Club to help Korpess ring in her centennial anniversary ahead of her official birthday on Monday.
The woman of the hour -- currently the oldest living member of the Holy Trinity Ukrainian Orthodox Church -- attributed her longevity to years of farm life and a diet rich in simple, nutritious food.
"On the farm, there's always work," her daughter Sally Brule noted. "You don't stop."
Korpess's strong connection to her Ukrainian roots is still evident in her slight accent.
Her parents both immigrated to Canada from the Ukraine in 1911, with father Steve Horychun arriving in the spring and her mother Teresa Lukasiewich arriving that fall.
Born in Prince Albert in 1914, Jessie Horychun grew up in a Ukrainian community and attended Podole School in the community of Honeymoon, where the family later moved to homestead
Twin tragedies struck the family when she was relatively young, with Jessie's sister Mary dying of diphtheria in 1919 before her mother passed away in 1926.
"She was 12 years old when her mom died," Brule said. "So she stayed with her dad and they ran the farm up until my dad came into the neighbourhood."
Future husband Mike Korpess was working on farms when he arrived in Honeymoon in 1936 and met Jessie.
The pair formed a deep friendship, which soon turned into love. They married in September of the same year and continued work on the family farm, with Mike taking an active role.
Two daughters were born in 1941 and 1944, and in 1945 the couple bought land in the Clouston district south of Prince Albert.
In subsequent years Mike and Jessie had four more children, with Jessie's father continuing to live with them until his passing in 1953.
After her husband died in 1992, Jessie stayed on the farm for nine more years, initially renting out the property before it was sold to a grandson.
I'm lucky to be as healthy as I am. Jessie Korpess
Her son Roy was killed in a traffic accident in 1996. In 2001, at the age of 87, Korpess moved to Sherman Towers, where she currently resides.
Living in the local apartment block, Korpess remains very independent and self-sufficient despite her advanced years.
"She does her own laundry, does her own cooking," Brule noted.
With all her free time, Korpess continues to keep busy.
Aside from watching television and a considerable amount of reading, she enjoys frequent visits and phone conversations with friends and family.
One of her favourite hobbies is tending to her flowers, including a flower garden on her balcony and a small garden in the yard at Sherman Towers.
"I like to plant some flowers," Korpess said. "That's important."
Her extended family today includes 11 grandchildren, eight great-grandchildren and one great-great grandchild.
Family and friends were plentiful at Korpess's Saturday birthday celebration, which included a hearty lunch and words of congratulations.
"We've got her guestbook here from her 90th birthday … A lot of the same people are here again and a lot have passed on," Brule said. "So you visit with who you can -- a lot of people that you don't see very often."
Another book displayed official greetings from prominent figures congratulating Korpess and wishing her a happy 100th birthday.
They included congratulations from Queen Elizabeth II, Prime Minister Stephen Harper, Gov. Gen. David Johnston, Premier Brad Wall, Opposition Leader Cam Broten, Prince Albert MP Randy Hoback, Wascana MP Ralph Goodale, Lt.-Gov. Solomon Schofield, Prince Albert Northcote MLA Victoria Jurgens and Prince Albert Carlton MLA Darryl Hickie.
Looking ahead past her significant milestone, Korpess plans to continue living her life much as before -- but did mention one notable birthday wish.
"I hope I stay healthy," she said with a smile. "I wish for health!"

text: My research focus is at the intersection of environmental and energy economics and public finance, with an emphasis on strategies for designing public policies to curb air pollution and greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. I have studied the design and implementation of economy-wide and sector-specific abatement policies, and their interactions. Common threads in my research agenda are the study of optimal policy design in the presence of multiple unpriced externalities and heterogeneity of firms' and households' responses to environmental policy. These studies can reveal interesting interactions between climate policies and other sources of social cost and benefit, such as the congestion cost of granting solo hybrid vehicle drivers access to carpool lanes, and provide new insights about the efficient design of economic mechanisms. My work helps to uncover new evidence on the nature of firms' and households' responses to environmental policy, such as electricity importers' responses to a GHG pricing regime or households' responses to gasoline price changes, often shedding light on the unanticipated consequences of existing policy. In addition to my empirical work, I have developed theory models to analyze the impact of lobbying during the regulatory process on allocative-efficiency and rent-seeking. This theory work complements my empirical work on GHG market design.

Mangalore: Minister H K Patil must apologise or quit - Poojary
Pics: Brijesh Garodi Daijiworld Media Network - Mangalore (BG)
Mangalore, Jul 11: "The state rural development and Panchayat Raj minister, H K Patil has to ask for forgiveness or resign from his post as minister for criticizing the Anna Bhagya scheme," said Congress leader B Janardhan Poojary, addressing a press meet here on Thursday, July 11.
A day prior to the launch of the ambitious rice at Re 1 per kg scheme, Patil had said instead of providing cheap rice, the government should have focused on providing drinking water and sanitation facilities in rural areas. However, he later retracted and said that the scheme would help the poor.
Lambasting Patil over his statement, Poojary said, "It is not right on the part of Patil to oppose and criticize the rice scheme. This clearly shows that Patil has no concern towards the poor."
"Patil has clearly violated the code of discipline making such a statement. He has to ask for forgiveness, or resign from his post. All others, including a few opposition leaders have praised the scheme. Our duty is work for the poor. People have trusted the Congress manifesto and voted us. It is not right to cheat the people in any way," he said.
"Opposition and BJP will quote Patil when the Food Security Bill is going to be passed in the session. Earlier in 2005, we had waived a debt of nearly Rs 48,00,000 in favor of the poor. The government had given nearly 300 acres of land for a company, but no update on this has been received yet."
"There is a need to work together for the welfare of the people, especially the poor. A people friendly government has to be formed," he said.
Kallige Tharanath Shetty, Harikrishna Bantwal, Suresh Ballal and Arun Coelho were present.

Perhaps the most fun, (and often overlooked) aspect of Record Store Day is the bit where you get home and carefully remove each of your beloved new records from their sleeves, (mindfully holding them only with a flat palm on the edges), place them on the deck and drop the needle.
On this week's podcast I invite you to share in the crackles and grooves of a few my own RSD purchases, and to have your mind politely blown by brand new music from the likes of Chad VanGaalen, Gardens & Villa, Amusement, Triptides, Iceage, and a quite beautiful rework of a recent Austra single by Vondelpark.
Enjoy the long weekend.

Hydro Thunder Hurricane ReviewBy Jake Gaskill - Posted Aug 03, 2010
Midway's high-octane boat racer Hydro Thunder makes its next-gen return in Vector Unit's downloadable sequel that brings all of the blistering speed, over-the-top level design, and white-knuckled intensity that defined the original game. Taking to the waters against friends online provides the perfect escape from the painful difficulty curve that hamstrings the later portion of the game.
The Pros
- Tracks feel like Disney rides
- Solid variety of modes and maps
- Blistering fast and tight racing
The Cons
- Flawless AI on harder difficulties infuriates
- Progression structure = some repetition and vehicle digression
The one phrase that continuously, and inadvertently, kept escaping my lips as I was playing Hydro Thunder Hurricane was, "Holy sh**!" Sure, the game does a good job of conveying the fact that you're traveling at absurd speeds, and the undulating water is gorgeously rendered, especially when you move from interiors to exteriors and back again, but it's the epic scope of the levels and explosive intensity of the racing that consistently caused me to let slip some rather salty exclamations.
Yo Ho Yo Ho A Race Boat's Life For Me
Each level feels like a any boat-based Disney ride, with each one featuring a wholly unique storyline and events (i.e. chunks of a freshly bombed mountain crash down around you, a giant sea creature leaps causing giant waves as it lands, etc.) that not only influence the track but the race as well. Because the developers put so much time into creating realistic water physics, it's easy to hit a jump when you don't mean to, or miss a boost canister because someone's wake pushed you off course. It definitely takes some time to come to grips with the fact that simply driving isn't enough to win a race, since it also comes down to what the water is doing at key points in the race.
Race Together, or Yell Alone
The majority of the frustrations that crop up in the single-player fade away in multiplayer, because you know the other players are capable of making a mistake even if they are the best driver in the race, and you can simply enjoy the thrill of the race. In the higher difficulty events in single-player, there's little to do but sit back and watch as the computer flawlessly maneuvers around the tracks to victory, regardless of your performance. While you can progress through the game winning nothing but bronze medals, even that becomes a nearly impossible proposition on the hardest circuits. Strangely enough, there isn't much rubber-banding, which is a relief.
Thankfully, once you hit that point of control-chucking frustration in single-player, you can jump into multiplayer and have fun again. In addition to the standard race mode, there is a mode in which one player drives a giant, rubber ducky, and the rest of the team has to protect it, while also trying to destroy the other team's. It's a bit more chaotic than the regular races, but it's still enjoyable. The games looks and plays smooth online, and will definitely end up being where most people spend the majority of their racing time.
Wet and Wild (and Relatively Cheap)
Hydro Thunder Hurricane delivers the kind of "Whaaaaaaat?!" thrills of a Burnout-style racer in a downloadable package. The tracks are packed with awe-inspiring moments and inventive designs, and the racing is tight and fluid. While only the best of the best will find any joy in the harder difficulty challenges, racing online with friends provides all of the excitement and joy you'd want from an arcade racer (all for just $15).

The New York Times asks that question in an article about the Isaiah Scroll that unconvincingly argues Hebrew is vanishing faster than the American Jew:
Its revival is often hailed as one of the greatest feats of the Zionist enterprise; today Hebrew is the first language of millions of Israelis, a loquacious and literary nation that is said to publish an average of 5,500 books a year.
But in a country where self-doubt and insecurity run deep, even a linguistic triumph can be a cause for concern. After such a meteoric comeback, some worry that the common language may already be in decline, popularized to the point where many Israelis can no longer cope with the rich complexities of traditional Hebrew prose.
"There is a feeling of anxiety," said Ruvik Rosenthal, a popular Israeli language guru and author of a best-selling dictionary of Hebrew slang.
There is the creeping foreign influence, as urban sophisticates pepper their Hebrew speech with accented English affectations like "please," "sorry" and "whatever," along with a noticeable loss of nuance and relative paucity of vocabulary in regular use.
Israelis can obsess about language. "We speak with mistakes," Mr. Rosenthal said. "Everyone does, and everyone corrects everyone else."
But he and other Hebrew watchers point to a potentially more disturbing trend: living Hebrew has moved at a fast pace, and in the process, it has become increasingly estranged from its loftier ancient form.
"We used to understand the biblical language better, and our language was closer to it," said Ronit Gadish, academic secretary of the Academy of the Hebrew Language, the state's supreme guardian of the national tongue. "Now, what can we do to keep up the continuity?"
In a country suffused with religious and historical symbolism, the linguistic link to the past has always evoked feelings of national identity, vindication and pride. Any erosion is bound to stir unease.
"The Bible," said Mr. Rosenthal, "is first of all our connection to the land."
Yes, but, in a country largely divided between the secular and the ultra-Orthodox, what about belief in the Bible?

Why it's your fav:The price is right. It's usually served at a fraction of a degree above freezing. And the mountain image on the can is a real mountain you can actually ski near Nelson, BC. That helps.
Ideal situation to drink it in: Behind the wheel. But cracking one while sitting on your tailgate after a day of ski touring is pretty good too.

My summary of "An Update of Fisheries Activities in GSMNP"
I figured I'd start a new thread, since I didn't want to wade through the last one.
Matt Kulp and Steve Moore had an excellent presentation on the fishery in the GSMNP last night in Wears Valley. I would recomend it to anyone wanting to go in the future. Alot of information was covered, so here are a few of the highlights that interested me the most.
- 60% of the fish die annually in a typical year in the park.
- Most fish don't live beyond 3 years in age. The 9 and 10" fish you are releasing probably won't live much longer, so you might as well keep it.
- Terrestrials (sp.) make up most of a trout's diet, by a very large percentage. This has been told to me many times, I guess I just needed a biologist to pound it home.
- There have been 2 food habit studies of otters conducted in the park and both found that otters eat crayfish all months of the year.
- Of the fish that the otters eat, and they do eat fish, only 14.3% of them are trout.
- They have conducted fish population studies of watersheds before otter re-introduction and after, and have found that otters have little influence on trout populations within the park. Thay showed us the figures for many watersheds. Trout populations rose and fell with water events (drought, floods) and that there are as many fish now as there was before otters.
- As streams get smaller, otters eat less and less fish. Our brook trout streams are safe.
- They will be removing the brook trout from Lynn Camp Prong and re-poisoning it again this year in an effort to re-re-introduce the southern strain of brook trout.
I'm 100% satisfied that otters pose no threat to our fishery.
I'm sure I missed some other highlight that may have interest some of you, but you'll just have to go to the next one yourself.
My posts are worthless without pictures
Excellent summary, Buzz. You take far better notes than I.
I got the impression they have conducted the fish population studies before otter re-introduction and after for most major watersheds, including Deep Creek, although there was not a slide specifically for it in the presentation. Matt said he would be happy to share the data for any or all streams that they studied.
The next Community Fisheries Presentation will be at Townsend City Hall on March 3 at 7pm. I encourage those that can to attend.

Thanks Buzz, that's interesting information for sure. I am especially amazed at that 60% figure on mortality for a "typical" year so that means in a drought year it's way higher. Even more so in a 2nd or 3rd drought year I would think, it just drives home how tough the little fellers are at digging in and maintaining!!
<(((>< In tribute to Ben, Duck Hunter extraordinaire, and man's best friend.
Maybe I didn't read it right... They are going to kill all the fish in lynn camp again?? wow... Out of curiosity, what strain of brook trout did they put in? Whos job was it to obtain these brook trout? Does this man or woman still have a job? If so why? They cry about the posibility of someone adding rainbows to the creek, and they didn't even stock it with the right type fish themselves? What can we say, its a government job... Maybe we'll get to fish that area again in 30 or so years.. What a waste of time, money, and not to mention the thousands of aquatic organisms they are killing.
2weightfavorite--Like you, I am thunderstruck by this piece of information. We are talking tens of thousands of dollars and untold man hours. I thought the Park learned this lesson decades ago. Surely there is some explanation beyond "we are going to do it all again."
Jim Casada
Buzz, thanks for taking the time to share some of the high-lights with us. Wish I could have made it.
Joe, thanks for posting the date for the next meeting.
Outside of predators, drought, floods, etc....... what were some other contributing factors pertaining to the short life spans?
Buzz thanks for the report. My mind at least is a bit more at ease on the Otter front but it is worth keeping an eye on over time like with anything. I was shocked about the plan to re-poison Lynn Camp prong again not sure how I feel about that. I am kind of thinking the restoration project should be ended after Lynn Camp is finally done. Does anyone know if any other streams are going to be restored or is this the last one? Overall I can't argue that it sounds like these guys know their business and I am impressed with all the specific details on the Otter situation in particular.
Adam Beal
Hey Jack (JAB)...
Buzz--Thanks for the detailed report. I remain highly skeptical on the otters (certainly not 100% satisfied they pose no threat), and I'll give one specific example of why. How can the biologists determine that 14.3 percent of the diet of Park otters is trout unless they are (1) tracking otters constantly with a video or (2) killing otters to examine their stomach contents? The answer is obvious. They can't, because they aren't doing either of those things. When I see very specific percentages like this, I immediately get dubious. Moreover, I doubt, and doubt seriously, that there has been a lot of effort put into the otter research. Were you given any information on the specific streams surveyed, how it was done, when it was done, and who did it?
I do intend to contact Matt and ask for the specific studies and, more importantly, their methodology. I have found him very open and forthcoming. The information on methodology is crucial, as is the extent of the studies in terms of sampling.
My continuing skepticism notwithstanding, I appreciate your taking time to share what you heard. I've commented elsewhere on the re-poisoning of Lynn Camp Prong. That is, in my view, a travesty and someone screwed up big-time.

Key statistics for pancreatic cancer
How common is pancreatic cancer?
The American Cancer Society's most recent estimates for pancreatic cancer in the United States for 2016 are:
- About 53,070 people (27,670 men and 25,400 women) will be diagnosed with pancreatic cancer.
- About 41,780 people (21,450 men and 20,330 women) will die of pancreatic cancer.
Pancreatic cancer accounts for about 3% of all cancers in the US and about 7% of cancer deaths.
Lifetime risk of pancreatic cancer
The average lifetime risk of pancreatic cancer for both men and women is about 1 in 65 (1.5%). But each person's chances of getting this cancer can be affected by certain risk factors.

Auburn Doubledays – July 17, 2010
The morning after I watched the Rochester Red Wings at Frontier Field, I woke up at my Rochester Extended Stay America hotel, showered carefully to avoid touching anything and headed out. Auburn is less than two hours' drive from Rochester, and with an evening game in Auburn, I had most of a day to kill.
I began the day by destroying an Italian sausage skillet at Denny's. It's one of those moves that seems brilliant at the time, but one you regret pretty soon after.

Who cares. I'll buy it and then I'll buy it again if Clayton finally decides to release it eventually. Legend III:I came out ten years ago, it's about time. If Clayton has the rights to it and finishes it up and releases it on his own label (and it's significantly different than the first go around), he can have my money twice like he did for Legend I and the rather useless limited edition extended-mix version of the album they put out.

Deer season is almost over. There are a few days left for bow hunters and muzzleloaders. Also if you have a crossbow you're allowed to hunt deer till the end of the month. Squirrel season will go out December 31, North of US 40, but you may hunt until the last day in January below US 40. Why? I don't know; some joker just made a rule like that for no reason. I know it doesn't make any sense but that's the way some game laws are in Indiana.
I used to publish what I called "The Dumb Law of The Day", but no one ever did anything about them. In the state of West Virginia, squirrel season comes in around the middle of October. Here in Indiana it comes in the middle of August. Does someone really think I'm going to go hunting in the middle of August? It's hot; the mosquitoes are thick as fleas (this is a dumb expression) and meat will spoil very quickly unless you carry a cooler full of ice into the woods with you.
Want some more DLOTD's? Watch this column; I'll try to put one or two in every issue. Have a statewide hunting/fishing regulation that you want published as 'The Dumb Law of the Day'? Send it to me. I won't publish your name if you don't want me to.
I recently had the opportunity to attend a Bow Hunters' Deer Camp in Ritchie County, West Virginia, about 300 miles SE of Fort Wayne. I say attend because I really didn't participate; I only observed and took a lot of notes and pictures. I'm not a bow hunter, yet. I think it's too much work. I like gun hunting because I can load, shoot, and put my firearm away, after cleaning it of course. To be a proficient bow hunter you have to shoot an average of 5 arrows a day to keep your muscles toned up, so I was told. I guess I'm just lazy.
Bow hunting season "comes in", in October and I had a week off so I thought I'd go see what a bow hunters' deer camp was all about and if it was any different from a gun hunters' deer camp. I was the guest of the West Virginia Bow Hunters Association or Club; I'm not sure which. It was started back around 1974 by my older brother Roy Joe, his three sons B.J., Joe, & Jack, his brother-in-law Bill, his nephew Freddie, his nephew's son Billie, and longtime family friend and recently married member, Brian Smith. Brian complained a lot about back trouble from a recent motorcycle accident. OK Brian, whatever you say.
In order to help 'pay my way' and to give a reason for my visit, I helped cook a few of the meals using my trusty Dutch ovens and I took a lot of pictures. I was introduced to bow hunting techniques (ambushing from tree stands), bow hunting equipment (the latest models of compound bows), and how to use camouflage, deer scent, and buck lure effectively. These good ol' boys know what they're talking about; Billie killed an 8-point (Eastern count - four on each side) and I watched as he dressed it out. Billie is a professional butcher for Wal-Mart so I watched carefully and took mental notes as to how he did it.
I learned to butcher my own deer way back when but I can always us some good tips. I used to take my deer to a meat locker in New Haven to have them processed but after arguing with them the last time and having to walk away with only 25 pounds of meat (no steaks - they said I shot up both hind legs), I decided that I wouldn't let them cheat me any more. Incidentally, I shot the deer in the left front shoulder through the heart. That's the reason I started processing my own meat. The locker has since gone out of business.
If you want to start butchering your own meat to be sure you get all the meat you have coming, go to the library and check out some books on butchering. Here's is one tip I learned – bone out all the meat. You can completely butcher a deer with only a sharp knife by cutting at the joints. You may need a hatchet to break the ribs to fit the large Ziploc bags. Also I never use a saw. I do save a few leg bones to boil down for soup and later saw them up to make Boy Scout neckerchief slides.
By the way, I want to thank Virginia Amick for the frozen venison. As soon as I get the holidays over with, I'll tell you in my Kampfire Kookin' column how I prepared it. Remember to take your kids hunting or fishing or just spend some time with them in our great outdoors; it will be the best time you ever spent. See ya in the woods and on the water.

UPDATED 6:45 PM PST: Take-Two Interactive has released a statement regarding the reports of 3D Realms' current situation to TheFeed.
The publisher would not comment on the health of the studio, but simply reiterated its publishing rights to Duke Nukem Forever and said its agreement with 3D Realms did not include providing funding for the project.
"It is the Company's policy to not comment on its contractual relationships, nor do we comment on rumors and speculation," said Alan Lewis, VP of corporate communications and public affairs for Take-Two, in an e-mailed statement to TheFeed. "That said, we can confirm that our relationship with 3D Realms for Duke Nukem Forever was a publishing arrangement, which did not include ongoing funds for development of the title. In addition, Take-Two continues to retain the publishing rights to Duke Nukem Forever."
As it stands, if Duke Nukem Forever is to be published, whether it's through 3D Realms or another studio, it has to happen through Take-Two, according to the publisher's statement.
All that remains is 3D Realms' side of the story.
UPDATED 5:43PM PST: Neither 3D Realms nor Take-Two Interactive have commented on the reports about 3D Realms' reported demise, but someone else has.
Deep Silver and Apogee Software just issued a statement saying the "situation at 3D Realms" will not affect the development of its announced Duke Nukem Trilogy planned for the DS and PSP.
"Deep Silver and Apogee Software are not affected by the situation at 3D Realms. Development on the Duke Nukem Trilogy is continuing as planned," reads the official statement received by TheFeed.
Stay tuned for more.
ORIGINAL STORY: We've waited more than a decade for 3D Realms to let us play Duke Nukem Forever, and now it's looking like we never will. Shacknews has published a story with insider sources reporting 3D Realms is being shut down, unpleasant information that TheFeed has separately heard, too.
As of this writing, however, no one from the company has stepped forward.
I've contacted both 3D Realms co-owner and president George Broussard, co-owner and CEO Scott Miller and publisher Take-Two Interactive, but have yet to hear back from any parties. 3D Realms has made no comment on the several message board threads about the topic on their official website, nor commented on any of the company's Twitter accounts.
No other details about 3D Realm' situation or the fate of the never-ending Duke Nukem Forever are currently available. As soon as we know more, you'll know it, too.

In case you didn't watch the MTV Movie Awards last night what you missed were about 20 f bombs which started dropping right from the outset and also Sandra Bullock kissing Scarlett J
Boo – can't watch these in Canada apparently 🙁ReplyCancel
@Terri – My husband just said the same thing to me. He said it like as if I were in charge of them or something. 🙂
I didn't get the way they played the whole Scarlett being on stage/silent and then the kiss. Seemed weird. I was also surprised Sandra said as much as she did on stage…..still love her though.ReplyCancel
There were more than 20 f-bombs. Heck, there were probably 20 just in the speech by the guy for the Twilight movie at the end of the show. And I wish I knew why someone thinks saying F this, F that, comes off as cool.ReplyCancel
I'm SO with you, Jax. The mess this oil spill has caused and the damage from it for DECADES to come demands international help and support. We all know BP doesn't give a shit.ReplyCancel
I can't even think about BP without wanting to cry or smack something. That's why I loved when Azziz gave them a little smack down. There were so many 'F' bombs that the viewers would have been totally desensitized 5 minutes into the show, so the incessant bleeps were really unnecessary.
I've been a defender of 'Twilight', but last night I think it finally jumped the shark for me. They did not deserve a single one of those awards. Then again, this is the MTV Movie awards. MTV can't even do the music awards right, so what was I expecting.ReplyCancel
@Robert, ditto the thanks for the link. Used to live down there and the whole thing is heartbreaking.ReplyCancel
Yeah, it seems really abstract when you hear about it or see it on the news, but the familiar frame of reference sheds a whole new light on it. The worst part for me is seeing the animals paying the price for this gigantic fuckup, to say nothing of the hardworkin' American folks whose lives are devestated, possibly for generations.ReplyCancel

In 2007, Rottefella debuted the New Telemark Norm, a binding system that promised to revolutionize telemarking's age-old cable-binding system by combining ski brakes, step-in entry, and a tour mode. But it wasn't an instant success. The bindings felt too soft and too heavy, and the boots came in only a few sizes. All that stands to change. Crispi, Scarpa, and Garmont are now making NTN boots in many sizes. And the bindings are burlier. We swear. You can actually hammer a tele turn on these with complete stability. The only bummer: The touring mode isn't a full free pivot.
Finally, the NTN rips
When it first debuted, Rottefella's New Telemark Norm boot and binding system wasn't quite perfect. Now, it's getting pretty darn close.

Remember what the shaped ski did to skiing...well thats what NTN is doing for Freeheel
Hate running hate being beat up...downhill torques the body...why because the equipment is so good it generates HUGE force and you locked in...so your body takes the G's..Well Freeheel lets you rip without getting beat up. Best yet...the feeling is even greater do to the range of motion. The NTN binding is it. The Crispi boot is it. Hang up the G sticks and drop a knee bomb and dance in the pow pow. Freeheel rocks!

This weekend, Sarah Paulson tackles a harsh and some might say unforgiving role in 12 Years a Slave. In Steve McQueen's latest, the actress is the wife of a brutal slaveowner played by Michael Fassbender. ScreenCrave recently spoke to Paulson about embodying such a vicious character. We also discussed the psychology behind the master-slave relationship, which was commonplace for hundreds of years.
The book Twelve Years a Slave is told from Solomon Northup's perspective, so not much is known about Mistress Epps. How did you fill in the blanks?
Sarah Paulson: You're right, it really is his autobiography of his experience during those 12 years. So it's his interpretation and his experience with Mistress Epps. So the other stuff I, with Steve and Michael, had to fill in. We did some work on our own to come up with a backstory to support the choices that we were making.
In one confrontation scene, it seems like Master Epps hints at his wife's humble beginnings.
Sarah Paulson: Yes, but we couldn't decide whether or not that was Master Epps trying to belittle her right back, or if it was true or not true. There was a real question about that in terms of what we decided for ourselves. We didn't know if he was just saying that to be cruel to her or if he meant it. But he might have. He might have really meant it.
Why do you think she stays with a man who's obviously obsessed with another woman?
Sarah Paulson: I think it's two-fold. I think one is that he does have the money and station even though he's an alcoholic and has a reputation for being a hard man. The most disgraceful thing you could think of at that time was to get divorced or have your husband fall in love with another woman, much less a slave. That's deeply humiliating to her, the concept of that. I think it would be hard for her during that time to walk away from the marriage, and also to go to what? It's a different time for women then. She doesn't have much recourse, which is probably why she perpetrates such violence towards Patsey also.
Is there any background between those two women?
Sarah Paulson: One thing that was in the book — though there isn't a scene of this in the movie — but when Patsey was a young girl she was Mistress Epps' favorite girl. They were quite sweet with one another. It's when she became a woman and my husband's eye started wandering in her direction that everything started to go awry between Mistress Epps and Patsey. To Mistress Epps, it's kind of a double betrayal because she lost both her husband and one of the girls she helped to raise.
Can't Mistress Epps understand that Patsey's the victim in this situation?
Sarah Paulson: She does understand that, but I think it's much easier for her to kind of lash out at Patsey because it's more accepted — that kind of behavior from a slave owner to a slave.
Where do you think that comes from?
Sarah Paulson: She was raised by ignorant people who were racists and bigots. I don't think she has the mental or spiritual or emotional capacity to challenge what she's been taught. Therefore, she behaves in the most entitled sort of way. Her opinions and her ways of doing things are the right ways. I think if she were a more self-reflective person she would perhaps investigate why she was feeling such vile feelings towards Patsey.
How did you get involved in this amazing project?
Sarah Paulson: I got involved by auditioning. I found out on a Thursday night about the movie and I was in New York and the casting director was in Los Angeles. My agent said, 'If you wanted to get in on this, they're moving very quickly. I think Steve McQueen is about to offer this to another actress but if you can get the tape done quickly and by tomorrow morning we can get it to L.A. and at least you'll be in the mix of things.' I said, 'OK.' So I read one scene. I didn't even read the whole thing, they didn't give you the whole script. I put myself on tape and I got a call the next day saying, 'Steve is very intrigued by your tape. And he was about to make an offer to another actress but he's going to hold off.' Then they called me a day or two later and said that he decided to go with you. He told me that he showed the tape to his daughter and his daughter was terrified of me and so he thought that it was probably a good idea that I was cast.
12 Years a Slave is now playing.

Ricky Gervais made a nasty joke about Justin Bieber when he was at Sunday night's Golden Globes. The young pop star was not the only person who became the 'victim' of the comedian's jokes, but he is surely the most dangerous one. Why? Well, Justin Bieber has lots of fans, and they just hate to see their idol being mocked. It seems that Ricky Gervais realizes that he is in hot water for mocking Justin Bieber. The day after his appearance at the Golden Globes, the comedian tweeted: "Getting out of town now. Bieber fans aren't happy with me. That's some scary sh** Ha ha. Bye LA. hello NY!" Ricky Gervais also posted a picture of himself with something that supposed to protect him from Justin Bieber fans and tweeted: "OK. I've got enough protection against Bieber fans now." But of course, he was only joking because it was a picture of him with a little cute dog.
Justin Bieber – Became a BrunetteWhen Justin Bieber appeared at the 2012 CES, many of his fans were surprised to see that the young pop star changed his hairstyle. But recently, the young pop star made another change to his hair. In a recently taken photograph of Justin Bieber, we can see that the young pop star has become a brunette. Justin Bieber had changed his hairstyle a couple of times, but this one is the most dramatic change. Some people who had seen the picture of the young pop star with his new hair color think that it makes him look a bit more mature. You can check out the picture yourself to see how Justin Bieber looks like with his new hair color.
Invited to Paramount Picture's Photo Shoot
Last Friday night, Paramount Pictures celebrated its 100th anniversary. More than 100 movie stars were invited to a photo shoot to celebrate the anniversary, including Justin Bieber. Other stars who were invited to the photo shoot include Brad Pitt, Leonardo DiCaprio, Nicole Kidman, Tom Cruise, and many more. After the photo shoot was done, all of them enjoyed a great after-party.

Over the course of Oliver Stone's career, we've seen him tackle a number of heavy-hitting topics. He's taken on Wall Street and some of our nation's most tragic events. He's a director who doesn't shy away from dark material. In fact, Stone thrives on making movies like his latest, Savages.
The film centers on two friends, Ben (Aaron Johnson) and Chon (Taylor Kitsch), a couple of the wealthiest men in Southern California. They have a powerful and popular brand of marijuana, which has made them very rich. They have it all, including a carefree and mutual girlfriend O (Blake Lively). But their happiness hits a snag when a Mexican drug cartel tries to buy them out. When they refuse, they kidnap O and force them to meet their demands or else she'll die. Now it's up to Ben and Chon to take back their girl and show the cartel who's boss.
Loceras is a Mexican cartel from Mexico and they're involved in horse races. It seems they're getting close. Is there, in the movie, a fear of showing what's really happening?
Oliver Stone: It's prophetic. I did go to Mexico and did talk to a few people who are heavy down there, on both sides of the fence, legitimate and otherwise. We had a DEA agent, and we had computer consultants. This is a hypothetical fiction. This is not Traffic. Traffic [is a] wonderful movie, but it's much more documentary-like. This is a hypothetical situation. It hasn't happened yet and it allows us to imagine. You can imagine the worst… It's in the interest of the Mexican cartels to keep it south because if they start to move here they're going to get a lot of bad publicity in there's going to be a lot of consequences. They are here, they are growing, and we know that. There's been buzz and we know that they have Indian land. We know they've grown and they may have deals here in California because this is a natural…the best laboratory in the world is now here. All these possibilities exist, but quite frankly from all my research I couldn't find. No one was talking about that.
What about the smaller legitimate growers in California?
Oliver Stone: We do have an independent growers market here, which is like a boutique business and they're very good people. They grow great stuff; best I've ever had in 40 years. It's like Wal-Mart coming to town like [John]Travolta says. If that does happen, Wal-Mart will definitely be interested in making good product because they'll take the niché business and they'll bring it up. Mexican weed's s–t as we said in the movie, but they would be interested in growing better weed because there's money in it. We don't know the answer yet, but right now I think it's hypothetical. Let's keep it that way and I think also by the way in that vein I think that Taylor Kitsch has a very good argument in the movie. A third of the way, he says to Johnson, he says that you should've done what I said, 'Take them on at the beginning we would've killed a few of the f–kers and we wouldn't be in this f–king mess we're trying to negotiate out of.' And it became a mess because Ben [Johnson] did take the negotiation pacifist view of this thing, no violence. I think maybe Aaron was right 'cause they wouldn't have risked the heat that they would've gotten with murders here in the United States.
In this movie you have so many layers between the story and each character. As a filmmaker, how did you prioritize what had to be there? What kind of play room did you give yourself?
Oliver Stone: Oh we cut a lot; the book is one hundred and twenty scenes. I think we only in the movie have 30 scenes to play. We had to make decisions in [the] script. We made decisions in the editing. We had to consolidate so much and there's so many things different in the movie than the book. You have to read the book to understand that. But definitely the book inspired me. Don Winslow did a great job of writing it and knew that world and it really gave me the desire to make a movie about it that was fresh. But ruthlessness in terms of — we have some good deleted scenes that you'll see one day that are fun, but they had to go. Benicio's [del Toro] home life among them.
Blake Lively said you like your actors to argue with you.
Oliver Stone: I do!
As far as their roles and how they see it, do you like that conversation with the actors?
Oliver Stone: I'm glad she thinks I did like it because I was smiling funny. No, I think it's good that every actor is the best advocate for his own; he's a lawyer for his own defense. And a good actor will be thinking, feeling, questioning, and Blake was one of the most aggressive in terms of questioning everything in the script. She was different than the concept in the book. She was more of a flower child than the girl who was more punk rock in the book. She always wanted to emphasize the heart and the hope that she had and I liked that and I liked what she did very much. She's very elegant, sophisticated, reminds me frankly she has a concept of script, she reminds me of a very smart like a Meryl Streep at that age. I knew her when she was starting out. If events are good to her she could go all the way. She's got the chops.
I wanted to ask about casting and working with Salma Hayek. She said you were very generous as far as allowing her to have some freedom with her look. Were there any times where you had to reign her or the other actors in?
Oliver Stone: I had no choice… She's a tough — she came from Mexico and she just propelled herself to Hollywood. I guess she didn't speak much English when she got here. I met her years ago when I did U-Turn and [the] first time I met her she said, 'You son of a bitch. You didn't even see me for…you gave it to Jennifer Lopez!' I was stunned you know. I didn't know her, but you know what, 15 years later I went right to her. I said this is the one. I didn't even see another actress, maybe one, but I never saw another actress, and I wanted Salma. I wrote her a note in Europe and I just said you're the one. She didn't remember that story I don't think. When Universal said is she tough enough I said sweetheart she's tough! Now Jennifer Lopez is going to come in after me. She's got a heart in the movie though. She has this strong, Latin fixation for family and I think when she tells that story about her husband and her children I think she really puts her heart out there and transfers it to Blake in a way, but still ruthless.
You mentioned this story hasn't happened yet. How concerned were you with avoiding some of the common stereotypes found in drug trafficking films?
Oliver Stone: Well, we're going to Mexico right after we open here. That'll be our first country and we'll find out. I think people are fairly reasonable and understand the realities of the situation. I think we showed some of the cruelty. We didn't show all of it because it's too rough, but certainly you have to deal with it, otherwise you're just sanitizing a situation that's gotten extreme. As to having made several movies about drugs including Scarface…It's funny, when I did Scarface you would've thought that it was a cartoon. But they modeled themselves after him then the Scarface character became a bit of a cliché. But it's so many of them acted like him. What I saw it in Miami with my own eyes, [he] is larger than life. And what I see in Mexico is larger than life. I've met quite a few of the growers here, grow ops in California, it's an interesting time. The world is living in a larger life fashion in general. We are seeing entertainment become politics and we're seeing people acting out in ways that are extremely violent and destabilizing including bankers. No rules apply. We're in an era of no rules now it seems.
Savages opens in theaters June 6.

2002 Blue Ribbon Dissents
Unanimity and consent are all very well and good, but sometimes pure passion needs its own outlet. I'm speaking, of course, of the passion for a particular title, a title that didn't manage to make the Blue Ribbons list but nonetheless aroused in its admirer the desire to praise, to advocate, or maybe even to whine a little. Here, then, are our consolation prizes, our chance to appeal a book's case to the world: our 2002 Blue Ribbon Dissents.
--Deborah Stevenson, Editor
The story is told in fifty short and snappy chapters (whose titles include "Revenge with a Vengeance," "Dancing at Starbucks," "Mom dot com," and "E-mail and the Detectives"). The text is an intriguing pastiche of texts: traditional book text, expressive and misspelled email and chatroom texts, newspaper articles, a page from Ned's passport, computer screen displays, line drawings, handwriting, and icons.
The pace is relentless and the pages nearly turn themselves, as readers accompany Ned and his friends on a chase that takes them to outback Australia, middle-class Massachusetts suburbia, a French castle, the hilly terrain of Jamaica, and a Manhattan townhouse filled with endangered animal skeletons. As with James Bond, the readers never doubt the ultimate success of the team's mission, but the unwinding of their tale (including a final elaborate and remarkably believeable sting operation) makes this slalom ride of an adventure one that readers will not want to miss.

Entertaining at home -- whether you're hosting a dinner party or just spooning up mac and cheese for your family -- is all about having fun, sharing food and relaxing with folks you love. Sure, there are times when it becomes more formal, people dress up and your styling is more elaborate (and that's fun, too), but the theme of today's Top 5 Friday is whimsical kitchen and dining accessories. These are the items you buy because you love them, which is really how you should feel about everything in your home.
Owls are having a moment -- consider them the new sparrows. These elegant napkins are a gorgeous grown-up colour, but putting a bird on them keeps them fun. Potter and designer Jonathan Adler is the king of whimsy, and this new butter dish says I heart pachyderms without going overboard.
Marbella Owl Napkins, $38 for 4, Serena and Lily; Elephant Butter Dish, $68, Jonathan Adler
I love the idea of a cookie jar -- and it makes doling out treats extra-special. Why an Anjou pear? Why the heck not? My grandmother had a nutcracker just like this one that only seemed to come out at Christmas. What is it with the holidays and nuts? Is it because you can go slightly nuts with all the festive hustle and bustle? Whatever the reason, this vintage nutcracker is a classic -- keep it out all year!
Anjou Pear Cookie Jar, $179, Anthropologie; Vintage Walnut-Shaped nutcracker, $80, badassbunny Etsy shop
Pop Culture
I know I'm not the first person to write about these Star Wars fan-friendly cookie molds, but how cute? Love the wookie! And what LEGO-lover, big or small, wouldn't like to sip a drink chilled by a LEGO ice cube man?
Star Wars Cookie Molds, $19.95 Williams Sonoma, LEGO man ice cube tray, $8.49, LEGO store
Fairy Tales
If my husband is reading this...I adore these Scandi place mats. They're slightly spooky, would go with anything and I can only imagine how kids would react (think of the stories you/they could invent!). And to add to the fairy tale theme, these adorable tilted Mad Hatter bowls are inspired by Alice in Wonderland and would be handy as sugar or salt bowls. ( I know Alice isn't a fairy tale, but it falls under classic kid lit, so it works, yes?)
Moomin black table mat, $17.98 each, Scandinavian Design Center; Mad Hatter Bowls, $211, YLiving
We're having a Morocco moment for the holidays -- get the Moroccan-inspired menu on FoodNetwork.ca. Mix and match these authentic plates for dinner, or choose one special plate to leave out cookies for you-know-who. This bright and cheery serving bowl in a classic Sagaform Dala Swedish horse shape is making my day. Though not expressly meant for the holidays, doesn't it feel festive?

Crowley's recommended "blessing" of a meal, "Will," is an exercise I've always liked. Eating is the fundamental life-sustaining activity of all animals, and is thus a powerful connection between ourselves and the natural world. I am pleased to be reminded, each time I eat, of my higher self and purpose.
Crowley's Will is quite simple and direct, which is a virtue. However, in its brevity, it omits certain worthy considerations. In the spirit of Thelemic creativity, I offer this variation on "Will" (which unfortunately destroys Crowley's simplicity with a number of baroque additions).
Crowley recommends saying "Will" as a Thelemic substitute for fasting. Whereas an Osiris-era mystic needed to fast to remain pure for spiritual practices, Thelemites need only dedicate their food to the Great Work (Magick in Theory and Practice, ch. 13). Crowley's text accomplishes this purification by using the Scholastic idea of tracing all events back to a First Cause (for the Scholastics, this was God; for Thelemites, this is the Will). Saying "Will" before meals also expresses another powerful Thelemic idea (actually, straightforward biology) -- that "meat and drink are transmuted in us daily into spiritual substance."
One critique of "Will" is that it pays no attention to the food and where it came from. There is no acknowledgement, as in meal blessings from other religions, of the source(s) of the food, and no expression of praise or gratitude. In the Thelemic context, such an acknowledgment could take the form of a magical listing of various elements that go into the food, in keeping with the idea that these elements are transformed into the fifth element, spirit.
"Will" is organized as a logical chain, each step going backwards along a line of causation leading to the "first cause," the speaker's Will. This causes a problem, in that each of these steps is completely subordinated to the next step. While I agree that it is magically useful to ultimately subordinate all things to the Will, and that this is the purpose of the ritual, it is also useful to acknowledge that each step in the logical chain is also an independent fulfillment of the eater's will.
Finally, "Will" in company is done in a role-playing dialogue, with a questioner and an answerer who declares his or her will with regard to the meal. However, the questioner (who usually is also eating) makes no statements about his or her will.
The following is an attempt at a "will" dialogue (between persons "A" and "B") incorporating responses to these criticisms:
A: 333-55555-333. Do What Thou Wilt shall be the whole of the Law.
If any of y'all have other interesting variations, do post them.
A related topic is the use of food in ritual in different cultural traditions. In Jewish ritual, food is important in several important ritual, including Seder and Sabbath. Anyone know of other interesting food rituals (hey, not to mention the Mass)?
