• 75g sesame paste
• 500ml konbu dashi
•75g kuzu flour
• scant tsp of salt
optional: wasabi and soy sauce for garnish

Try a more savoury and umami-rich alternative to tofu with this easy sesame tofu recipe. Unlike real tofu (which is made from coagulated soy bean milk), this 'tofu' is made from a combination of sesame paste and kuzu flour, with kombu kelp dashi and salt added for a deeper savoury flavour. Enjoy this traditional 'shojin ryori' Buddhist dish cold with a little soy sauce, or add cubes of it to miso soup.
• 75g sesame paste
• 500ml konbu dashi
•75g kuzu flour
• scant tsp of salt
optional: wasabi and soy sauce for garnish
Crumble the kuzu flour so that it's not lumpy. If you have a food processor or suribachi you can use these to save a bit of time.
Place the kuzu flour in a bowl, add the konbu dashi, sesame paste and salt, then mix well with a whisk until all the lumps disappear.
Pour the mixture into a pan, stirring continuously. While stirring, turn on the heat to low-medium. As the mixture begins to warm up, it will gradually get gooier and gooier. It should take about 10-15 minutes to thicken, when it dollops thickly off the spoon it should be ready.
Dampen your mould and pour in the mixture. If you don't have anything suitable to hand, you can always use a little cling film tied tightly with a rubber band, just make sure it's water tight.
Bang the mould a couple of times to release any trapped air bubbles, then cover with a damp cloth. Place your mould or cling film blob in a container of chilled water to cool down.
When the mixture has cooled to room temperature, put it in the fridge to set. This should take about 2 hours, then your sesame tofu will be ready to slice up and serve. Enjoy with a little dab of wasabi or splash of soy sauce.
• If you can't get your hands on Japanese nerigoma sesame paste, you can use tahini or grind your own using a suribachi. If you've decided to make your own, lightly toast the sesame in a frying pan first before grinding. Also be warned it might take a while, so you'll want to get unsuspecting friends, family and passers-by to lend a hand too.

The Real World
I open my mouth,waiting for something clever to come out of my mouth but shut it again when I realize that it has taken too long. Codian blinks at the door at nods at it. "Quit being a cherry and come on. I have something you need to know." He stands and holds out a hand. I take it. His hand is both warm and rough on my skin. He pulls me up and frees his hand gently. Leading me out of the door,we walk to another hallway. "Monsters,creatures exist all over the world." He opens a set of oak doors. I manage to control my tears but a few drip out of my eyes. "Welcome to the world of the shadows. The real world."
The light of the sun passing through huge glass hemisphere-shaped ceiling. A gold ring is formed around the end of the glass. Paintings hang on the walls like the ones in the hall but these are scary. Monsters from children's nightmares. Phantoms from the other world.
Under each and every of the paintings are framed with gold and gold plates with words scripted across each of them. I walk slowly,scanning over them. Those aren't words at all. Just twists and curves of lines twining together. "What does this mean?"I stop in front of a random painting and ask silently,pointing at the words. This creature has pale skin,almost like Kyo's, but much paler. Her skin is scaly and it sticks to her bones. Literally. Her nails are replaced with sharp claws. Long, sharp teeth crawling out of her mouth and a long thin strip of tongue sticking out from the sets of teeth,like a snake's. Her tangled hair covering her bare chest. The body of a human, and a long tail of a fish. She looks like The Little Mermaid in a much scarier version.
"The words of the Lightseekers,"he answers behind me.
"Yeah,but what does it mean?"
"Arians, meaning 'once the beauties of the ocean'."
"Beauties?"I repeat the word,staring at the painting. Does he even know what that means?
"Trust me when I said beauties. In English, they're called mermaids. Before Arians,they were Glasen. They were beautiful creatures until one of them wanted to be the only beautiful one among the race and eventually,her vanity brought her to seduce the only male Glasen who had magic and he granted her request by turning the rest into Arians. But as soon as he found out she was only setting her eyes on his powers,he turned her into the hideous creature,"he explains. His fingertips skim the plate.
"Are you afraid?"I murmur.
"Of being ugly? Yes."
"No. Of being a Lightseeker. How can you face these creatures? You're not afraid of their figures?"I don't believe that people don't have fears. But he is a Lightseeker after all.
"We Lightseekers are born to be fearless. As a child, I was trained to fight them."He gazes at his fingers that are touching the tangled lines, seemingly to dive deep into his story. "I got used to seeing them. Alden told me we looked exactly the same as humans. I was never allowed to set foot outside the school. But there were a few occasions when I had to be out. The first time I went out on a mission,I was afraid of the humans more than Phantoms. I met a homeless man and a beggar that night and they were begging me for money and food. I wanted to put a knife through their heads so badly at that time."This time,he looks me in the eye. "What are you afraid of?"
I shrug a shoulder. I was afraid of spiders and cockroaches and clowns. But now,considering that there are much more scarier things out there,I am afraid of the world. "I don't know. I guess it's the real world. Why are you showing me this? Aren't you afraid that I might get a word out on all this?"
"Nope. That will make you an idiot and maybe someone will bring you to the mental hospital."
I laugh dryly. "You got a point there."
I move to the next one. A skinny,small, black creature crouching. The spine almost breaking out of its skin. Its ears are pointy and large like a bat's. Its red beady eyes watching me."What's this one called?"
"Zydeor. Very nasty creatures." He curls his fingers near his arm in a gesture. "They cling onto you and suck you dry then take your body to feed the young ones."
"That's revolting,"I say,nodding as I agree. "Where is everybody?"I walked in hallways but there are just us five in the whole building. Could it be that the four of them are actually having this place for themselves?
"There is just the five of us left but we have recruited a few more and we let them stay in the dorms. "He grins the large smile of the Cheshire cat and that makes me feels uneasy. "And you,"he points at me,"will be staying with us as well. You do not have to question me."
"Stay here?"
He nods. "Staaaaay here,"he repeats."Besides I'm offering you a place to stay. I bet that your place is the first place the Phantoms will check and probably wait for you to get back. An ambush."
"I don't want to stay. I can stay in a hotel till it's safe."
"Even if you stay for a thousand days,what makes you think they'll be gone or they won't find you and rip you to shreds?"he says with such certainty of what they'll do to me. "So stay. That's the only option you have left anyway. And as for your parents,call them. Lie to them."
I almost forgot that I lie about having parents. "They won't answer my calls anyway. They're busy with work. They don't even care if I got shot in the leg. "I shrug like it's nothing when it's deeply hurting me. "And you have a point there. I'm not safe there."

World-Wide Factory Activity by Country
Global manufacturing activity was generally stronger in October, led by a strong gain in the U.S. as only a few countries still are seeing contraction in their factory sectors.
A global index produced by J.P. Morgan rose to 54.4 last month, compared to 53.0 in September, as the U.S., China and the U.K. led growth. Despite expansion in the euro zone, not all of Europe is growing. The situation is improving in Italy and Spain, but the nations still have a contracting factory sector. Russia took a step backward. After notching growth in September, manufacturing contracted last month.

The Sarajevo Haggadah is an illuminated manuscript that dates back to Spain 1492. Over centuries it traveled from Spain to Sarajevo (via Venice and Vienna) finally arriving in 1894 and was acquired by the National Museum of Sarajevo, which was established in 1888. In 1942, Nazi Commander General Johann Fortner came to the museum to claim the Haggadah, knowing its value to the Jewish people. The museum's chief librarian Dervis Korkut, a Muslim, tricked Fortner into believing that the Haggadah had already been taken by the Nazis. When Fortner asked for the name of the person who took it, Korkut responded, "I did not think it was my place to ask." Korkut then took the Haggadah to a mosque in a remote village and hid it among the Korans and other Islamic texts. It was returned to the museum following the war. The Haggadah was rescued by a Muslim once again during the Bosnian War, when, in 1992, the National Library was burned to the ground, and a librarian named Enver Imamovic retrieved the book and hid it in a bank vault. The President of Bosnia presented the sacred Haggadah to the Jewish community of Bosnia at a Passover seder in 1995.
If you read the amazing history of the Haggadah in the New Yorker by Geraldine Brooks or her wonderful novel, People of the Book, that imagines the Haggadah's storied travels, you understand how momentous this event was. The staff attended the modest ceremony, which was brief, but I will always remember his reverence saying: "Please take care of the Koran in the U.S. as we took care of your Haggadah." As we prepare for Passover, let us all reflect on the freedom that we share, and the freedom yet to be won for our brothers and sisters.

Thank you, it's nice to meet you.
"Well, isn't it nice to meet a nice young lady with manners. You are precisely the kind of young lady that I'm sure the Headmaster had in mind when opening Tanglewood up to girls such as yourself." The Professor grabbed your file and reviewed the dorm openings. "Well, it seems that we have a few openings in Knight Hall for exceptional individuals such as youself.
"Umm... exceptional?" You ask.
"Yes. It's the hall for our honors students. Now, it isn't primarilty acedemic, so don't get worried about extra homework. It's where students that the administration and faculty think will make good leaders and innovators are placed. You certainly seem up to it, my dear." She hands you your file with a map stapled to it. "Just follow the path markers and you'll find it no problem. It's hard to miss." The Professor waves you off, and you pick up your bags and head towards Knight Hall on the map.
You're so busy, in fact, that you don't see the girl stopped in front of you until it's too late. You both collide, and suitcases and files go flying. You look over at the other girl - both of you have fallen over from the accident. She seems to be about your height and build, but blonde hair where yours is red and blue eyes where yours are green. Her face is also conspicuously free of freckles. She seems just as shocked as you do, and looks over questioningly at you.

Poll: What do you guys want to read next? Vote Now!
Author has written 19 stories for Supernatural.
Hmmmm, what to put in this? I don't know what people want to know about me, or even if they want to know anything at all... What to tell you, what to tell you...
So, fanfiction has quickly become my life. I spend all day reading it on my phone, much to the annoyance of my husband and son. What can I say, it's addicting! I just wish I could find more compelling stories other than something that is half assed and obviously taken from somewhere else. Yes, I know I have no room to talk but I try to hide the origins of my inspiration in the story itself even though I'm pretty sure I failed... I'm just going to shut up now...
As much as I love to hear feedback, I don't write for reviews like a lot of writers and I try not to sound like I'm begging for them. It would be nice to hear about why you liked something, why you don't like something, or what I could do to improve my writing. I will try to get back to you but if I don't get to it I hope you don't get offended. I have a two year old who demands my time though I would be lying if I said I smothered him with attention. I believe it's important for him to be able to entertain himself with his toys or the animals. I need time to do my thing and he needs to find what his thing is- so far it's dragon hunting- and I think we have found a good balance.
If you want me to write you something, I will add it to my list (found at the bottom) that seems to only get longer and rarely shorter. It may take a long time to get it done or it could take a few hours depending on what I am working on at the time. My aim is to please my readers and I am sorry if I disappoint you, just tell me if you don't like it and I will rework it until you do. All you have to do is ask. I will write pretty much anything as long as I have a general idea of what you want. If it something with multiple chapters you have to be patient with me and all of the random questions I will ask at random times depending on how far in I am.
Music is my life! It is the biggest source of inspiration. Just about everything I write came to me while listening to a song. Like I said, I try to hide the fact it came from such and such song but to me it's obvious so I'm not sure if I succeed.
I try to keep several things in the works at once, even if it is just playing with ideas. If I have writers block on one, I can go to the next one and work on that until something new comes to me about the first or I get writers block again. It's a never ending vicious cycle. Some of the things I write gets torn up and tossed away because I don't like the way it's turning out. If I do it to something you like, let me know and I will do whatever I can to make it up to you.
My Favorite fanfiction authors: thecouchcarrot, and ChealsexQ - you should check them out!
I don't know what else to say... If you want someone to chat with, I am your girl. Send me a PM and we can chat the night away :P The only times I can't talk is if I'm putting my baby down for bed and that could take a while, he does not like going to sleep, and I apologize ahead of time.
Happy reading, all.
Forever Yours,
Countess Impossible
Updated July 17, 2013
So, I figured you all would appreciate an updated list! All of my completed works have been taken off to make way for the new and exciting things I have in store! Yeay!
So, while cleaning my house and dancing around like an idiot, I have found soooo many songs that are begging me to write something to. I don't write song fics but they are deeply inspired by them. For example Confessions was inspired by Running Out of Time by Poets of the Fall, and Soothe My Pain was inspired by the The Distance, also by Poets of the Fall. I wont write the playlist on here because I have not put a dent in it but when I get started on one I will add it that way. Easy, right?

The 27-year-old has impressed for Swansea since joining the club from Rayo Vallecano for just £2.2million.
Michu has scored 18 times in 35 appearances for Swansea and has been linked with the likes of Arsenal and Liverpool.
Jenkins said: "We've seen with Tottenham and Gareth Bale that every player has a price. We are not in that bracket with Tottenham but they sold a top player. We are realistic about that side of things.
"I would say Michael was about right with his valuation of Michu if you look at the current market, but this call-up enhances that further.
"We know we have a very talented player and naturally we want to keep him."

On the Island
A Novel
Tracey Garvis Graves
This book is available for download with iBooks on your Mac or iOS device, and with iTunes on your computer. Books can be read with iBooks on your Mac or iOS device.
Two people stranded on an island struggle to survive—and slowly fall in love—in the runaway New York Times bestseller from the author of Covet.
Anna Emerson is a thirty-year-old English teacher desperately in need of adventure. Worn down by the cold Chicago winters and a relationship that's going nowhere, she jumps at the chance to spend the summer on a tropical island tutoring sixteen-year-old T.J.
T.J. Callahan has no desire to go anywhere. His cancer is in remission and he wants to get back to his normal life. But his parents are insisting he spend the summer in the Maldives catching up on all the school he missed last year.
Anna and T.J. board a private plane headed to the Callahan's summer home, and as they fly over the Maldives' twelve hundred islands, the unthinkable happens. Their plane crashes in shark-infested waters. They make it to shore, but soon discover that they're stranded on an uninhabited island.
At first, their only thought is survival. But as the days turn to weeks, and then months, the castaways encounter plenty of other obstacles, including violent tropical storms, the many dangers lurking in the sea, and the possibility that T.J.'s cancer could return. As T.J. celebrates yet another birthday on the island, Anna begins to wonder if the biggest challenge of all might be living with a boy who is gradually becoming a man.

Loved this book. Every chapter kept my interest.
Didn't want it to end.
Fun Adventure
I've never read a romance book in my life, but I was looking for something a little different then the usual thriller or emotional drama, and I found this book.
Although, some events in the book were a bit ridiculous and made me roll my eyes, overall it was a great adventure and I found myself thinking about the characters long after I finished the book.
Loved It!!!
Amazing story! I couldn't put it down! Must read!

Attorney Q&A
The attorneys at Rosenthal, Levy, Simon & Ryles are asked questions on a daily basis. We want to share a few of them with you. If you have a legal questions you would like answered, email us today at firstname.lastname@example.com.
- Will the contractor's insurance cover water damage he caused while doing repairs?
Question: While replacing the plumbing and tile in my upstairs bath, the contractor cracked a pipe and caused water to flood the entire bottom level of my home. I assume that since he caused the problem, his insurance will cover my home repairs. Am I right?
Answer: You have two, perhaps, three, potential sources for coverage of your damages:
- If, in fact, the contractor (a) caused the flood that damaged your home and (b) has insurance, then his insurance company should be the first in line to pay for the repairs. Before hiring, always check that the contractor is licensed and insured.
- If your contractor is not insured, you can file suit against him personally. However, it has been our experience that uninsured contractors rarely have sufficient assets available to pay for such losses.
- If neither of the first two sources is available, then you will have to turn to your homeowner's insurance to cover your losses. Do not assume, however, that funds for all the costs of repairs will be handed over promptly.
When going through your own homeowner's coverage, you are required to proceed "according to you policy." That could mean paying thousands of dollars out-of-pocket. Worse still, you could find yourself waiting weeks, perhaps months, to get those costs reimbursed by your own insurance company!
Consider this: Most homeowners' policies require you to "mitigate" your losses or damages. That means you have to take the necessary steps to get all the water out of your home before additional damage occurs. If you discover mold associated with the water damage, you must also take care of it immediately.
Sound complicated? It can be, especially with insurance companies working overtime to avoid costly claims. Protecting your rights is what the firm of Rosenthal, Levy, Simon & Ryles does. We are dedicated to providing you the justice that you deserve.
- I cut my mouth on a piece of metal in my meal. Is the restaurant responsible?
Question: A few days ago, I was at a restaurant and cut my mouth and lip on a chunk of metal in my meal. I told the manager, but the only thing he did was offer to take the meal off my bill. I was upset and quickly left the restaurant but did take the metal object with me. My mouth is still very sore and has not yet healed completed. Is there anything I can do now?
Answer: Absolutely! A restaurant is always responsible in this type of situation. The idea is that the restaurant is selling a "product" (the meal), which makes them responsible for ensuring the safety of this product.
I would have preferred if you had stayed at the restaurant and filled out an incident report. This report gives a brief description of what occurred, the time and date of the incident, names of witnesses, and the signature of the manager or employee on hand filling out the incident report with you.
Although you didn't get an incident report, I'm glad that you took the metal with you. The offending object is a key piece of evidence that you do not want the restaurant to lose or destroy.
As for next steps, it is important that you seek immediate medical attention:
- Have your mouth fully examined and your wounds thoroughly cleaned to ensure that no metal fragments are lodged in your mouth or lip.
- Have photos of your mouth and lip taken and obtain a full medical report of your injuries, which should then be filed with your insurance company. The medical report is essential when filing any claims for reimbursements for your medical bills.
The restaurant should be held responsible for any medical bills you incurred as a result of your mouth injury, as well as any lost wages due to doctor visits or an inability to perform your job duties. A jury may also place a monetary value on the pain and suffering that you experienced as a result of this ordeal.
Protecting rights is what we do. With insurance companies working overtime to avoid costly claims, injury cases are more complicated than ever. We are dedicated to providing you the justice that you deserve.
- How do I prove my husband's fatal heart attack was an "accident"?
Question: My husband, a 45-year-old father of four, suffered a fatal heart attack at work. His life insurance company claims that he died from natural causes. Some of his co-workers called me to say that they think his death may have been prevented if he had received prompt intervention. If so, doesn't have make his death an "accident?" How do I handle this?
Answer: I'm sorry for your loss. We often see this problem. Insurance companies do not profit by paying double benefits for accidental death. It is to their advantage to rule that the death was due to natural causes. Our investigation can uncover the issues that prove the death was an "accident" according to the terms of the life insurance policy. We do this by:
- Reviewing the victim's medical history.
- Determining if the employer proactively trained staff members to respond to emergencies such as heart attacks, strokes and trauma.
- Questioning witnesses to determine if co-workers could have assisted the victim with CPR or use of an Automatic External Defibrillator (AED). You have probably seen these devices on the walls of manufacturing plants, grocery stores, malls and workplaces. Most places of business should have an AED device to resuscitate someone whose heart is not beating properly. If used in the first 3 to 5 minutes, the machine can help re-establish the heart's rhythm and prevent heart attacks, brain damage and death.
- Securing a strong cardiologist to determine if the victim could have been saved had efforts begun sooner.
The lawyers of Rosenthal, Levy, Simon & Ryles have prosecuted cases for families who lost a loved one after he or she suffered a heart attack in facilities which were not equipped with an AED. In those cases, doctors were able to determine that the deceased person could have been saved if proper action had been taken immediately. We proved that the deaths were due to "negligence." As a result, the death was considered accidental, meaning the insurance company was required to pay double benefits to the victim's family.
These cases can be very difficult to prove. Since it is not always clear whether the death could have been prevented, you need an experienced attorney to review this type of case. Protecting rights is what the lawyers of Rosenthal, Levy, Simon & Ryles do. With insurance companies working overtime to avoid costly claims, we are dedicated to providing you the justice that you deserve.

Whew! We're working hard on Visual Studio Codename "Orcas", and that has kept me extraordinarily busy. One of the things I have been working a lot on has been our cool SharePoint workflow tools in VSTO Orcas.
Using these tools makes it a lot easier to start developing and debugging a workflow solution. Once you get going with workflow, a lot of new avenues will beckon. For example, you can call a SharePoint Web service to get information about items that are currently part of a workflow process. SharePoint handles the security and heavy lifting for you- all you need to do is call a Web service and parse the response.
Admittedly– the responses are not always very clear. And, we do not really document the schema for the message that are returned. It would be great if someone would do this work! For example, here's part of the response for a request I have sent to a SharePoint server to give me the workflow information for a text file on the server:
<Web Title="Document Center" Url=http://myserver/Docs />
<List Title="Documents" Url=http://myserver/Docs/Documents />
<WorkflowTemplate Name="TestComponents" Description="My SharePoint Workflow">

. . .

For the most part it appears that the schema is the one used for initiation data in SharePoint, but it still is largley undocumented. In an ideal world we would document it.
We just hit an important internal milestone for our product, and we had a timer sitting in the hallway that count down how far to go before the end of the milestone we were working on.
Well, I changed the clock to count down to my birthday for everyone (it's on June 30th!). Here's what it looks like now:
Rock Thought for the Day:
I have been trying out so many new bands (aMute, Brand New, Explosions in the Sky, etc.) that I just do not have time to blog about them all. Besides, the new SMASHING PUMPINS songs are starting to trickle out. I have heard "Tarantula" and "God & Country" from the new album Zeitgeist. Both songs are fantastic, and I hope to hear Tarantula a lot more on the radio. It is distinctively Smashing Pumpkins yet it is fresh and new– very exciting Rock and Roll!
Also- my own band (my sons and me)– Atlas Falling— is playing this Saturday at 7pm at Moonray Espresso in Duvall (14606 Main St. Duvall, 98019)- just behind the Subway. Come support the band and see my sons play!

reviews – Sanpete Tales
Journal of the West
Humor is the lubricant of life. These tales from central Utah reflect both the Mormon church background and the Scandinavian origins of some of the residents. Enjoyable reading and a chuckle generator.
Utah Historical Quarterly
In 1930 Edgar M. Jenson, the author's grandfather, began writing down the impudent folk tales told by the Scandinavian settlers of Sanpete County. An example: "When Doc Olstein was called in to see Requel Nielsen's wife, who was very ill, he made a very careful examination, but finally shook his head and said, 'Requel, I am worried. I yoost don't like your wife's looks at all.' 'Vell, i neffer like dem either,' answered Requel, 'but she surely haf been a faithful vife oond modder'" (57).
Although these stories had entertained and united the community for decades, by 1930 the old tradition of storytelling was dying out, and the then-current generation of Sanpeters was mostly ashamed of the dialect and situations in these tales. Though many disliked the way the stories made the settlers look unsophisticated, Jenson loved the stories, and he wanted his children to know them.
Lucky for us. The hand-typed, hand-illustrated volumes he left for his posterity have been compiled and abridged into this volume. Besides making us laugh, the dry humor in this collection helps us to enjoy the people—the "tough-bodied, warm-hearted, sly-humored" (xx) Swedes, Norwegians, and Danes who passed them around.
Journal of Mormon History
Sanpete County's Scandinavian population, perhaps Utah's most distinctive ethnic group for its first century, has also produced a legendary body of folk humor focused on tough endurance, hyperbolic descriptions of gender roles, deliberate obtuseness about higher culture, and carefully calculated subversions of the alien English language. Edgar M. Jenson, the author's maternal grandfather, died in 1958, leaving three typed and hand-illustrated compilations of these "droll stories," one for each of his daughters. He never published any of them, out of consideration for the privacy of the third-generation descendants of those pioneers and also as a sensitive recognition that dialect stories seemed "demeaning" and "old-fashioned." William Jenson Adams's decision to publish them reflects the new "fierce loyalty" of Sanpete descendants to their "ethnic heritage" (vii).
Adams's introduction also supplies a history of Scandinavian Mormon migration to Utah, settlement history, the folk explanations for the folktales themselves, and a bibliographic discussion of other efforts to collect these tales. The preface his grandfather prepared for his holograph collection is also included.
But the core of the book is "Eddie Miller's" 232 tales and sayings of Philosopher Pete and sixteen Danish-style caricatures (Miller taught art at Brigham Young University). Here are three samples:
Stake President Canute Peterson prayed devoutly for the general authorities of the Church "dat dey may be true oond virtuous from time to time." (45)
Philosopher Pete says: "Marriage entitles vomen to de protection of strong men vat can steady de stepladder for dem vile dey vitevash de kitchen ceiling." (63)
Aunt Stene had a flock of fine Plymouth Rock hens. Their eggs were normally dark shelled, but one day Uncle Neils Peter brought in an egg with peculiar white markings all over it. Uncle Neils, thrilled with their hieroglyphic appearance, was sure it must be some sort of message from on high and urged that they send the egg to Salt Lake City for translation. "Remember de writings on de wall at Belshazzer's Feast, Stene," he counseled.
Stene was not impressed. "Neils Peter," she announced firmly, "you can believe vat you vant to believe, but I for von don't tink de Lord sends messages to us t'roo de hind end of a chicken." (55-56).
Latter-day Messenger, Tamara Wahlquist
Any Scandinavians or lovers of Scandinavians would enjoy this little volume of Central Utah folklore. At first it is hard to get the knack of the dialogue, but once you read a few of the stories outloud to yourself, and get the dialect conquered, the tales are quite amusing.
These stories were collected over a long period of time; told and retold. The printing of them now allows us to see ourselves in some of the stories. It's good to laugh at ourselves and see the humor in day to day activities. This is a highly enjoyable book which would make a great gift to anyone you know who will enjoy seeing their own foibles in these stories and be able to laugh at themselves.
Update Magazine, KSU School of Journalism, Molly Kingan
'Der vas von ting Villiam Adams vas vorried about. He vanted to preserve his family's heritage. 'Dis vas an admirable endeavor, in anyvon's book, but dat book dat he wrote vas vunny, too.
In his new book, "Sanpete Tales: Humorous Folklore from Central Utah," Adams preserves the dialect and heritage of an entire group of immigrants from American history.
The book, published by Signature Books of Salt Lake City, is a collection of stories gathered by his grandfather Edgar Jenson. The book compiles the humorous tales of the Scandinavian immigrants of Utah. The stories begin around the 1840s with the Mormon trek and continue through the next 80 years until the Great Depression.
Adams, an associate professor in the A.Q. Miller School of Journalism and Mass Communications, teaches a variety of journalism classes including Research Methods for graduate and undergraduate students. He also teaches broadcast history and photography courses. He has received awards for his own photojournalism in addition to two Excellence in Teaching awards from K-State. He also has a life outside Kedzie Hall that includes an interest in preserving storytelling.
"Storytelling is beginning to revive again. It had died out for anumber of years. Hopefully, this is part of that trend," Adams said. "Stories are commentary on a society, and that still works."
Many people had tried to capture the Sanpete tales without much success, but Jenson changed this. He decided to collect these stories when he began "realizing he too would soon be an ancestor." Because the third generation of Utah Scandinavian immigrants feared being embarrassed by the tales, Adams said the stories began to be lost. But three years ago his family decided the time to share the stories with the world had come.
"Well, the first through the third generations have all passed away and the fourth and fifth aren't looking too healthy," Adams said.
The perfect author for this book, Adams has a background in writing textbooks dealing with programming, public relations and promotions. He also has his personal memories of his grandfather's tales.
"My grandfather collected all these stories. I've grown up knowing them," Adams said. "With the Utah centennial coming up (in 1996), the family decided to make them into a book."
Jenson died when Adams was young, but Adams was not left without memories of him. Jenson left behind recordings of himself telling the Sanpete tales aloud with the authentic dialect of the settlers. He also left three volumes, one for each of his daughters. Within these volumes are hand-illustrated, Danish-style caricatures Jenson drew to accent the stories. In addition, Jenson had numerous notes and journals, which Adams worked with to compile the book over a two-and-a-half-year period.
"The reworking of the stories took me about a year," Adams said. "Then I spent about a year and a half working with the publishers."
Adams streamlined the commentary, removed titles for the stories and standardized the punctuation and spelling of dialect words.
Adams said that for some time, these tales were the biggest dontation to Utah humor. He illustrated this in the book through the tales.
"My favorite story is probably one of the funeral stories," Adams recalled. "The one about Falsebottom Peterson's eulogy."
Each of the townspeople had humorous nicknames. Falsebottom received his name after he was found stuffing luxury goods into his trousers during inspections at Ellis Island. Adams explained that once a name was chosen it was hard to lose.
The story, like many others, finds humor in the slip-ups that happen when immigrants come to a new country, with a new language and culture.
"Carried away by his eulogy, Simon Coffeepot leaned forward on the pulpit and said 'Ve don't need to vorry none about Brodder Falsebottom. He vas a good man, a kind man, if not an honest von.' Then, pointing to his casket, with tears in his eyes he sobbed, 'Dis han't Brodder Peterson vat is in de coffin. Dis only de shell of Brodder Peterson. De nut has gone to de Great Behind."
Adams' book doesn't just show the humor of the tales as seen above, but his pride in his heritage. He combines both in his dedication.
"To Dad and Mom and their fellow townspeople, whose Sanpete humor furnished fun from the shoe leather up and renovated the soul."
Manhattan Mercury, Glenn M. Busset
Well, no, not all the Scandinavian emigrants to America ended up in Wisconsin, Michigan, North and South Dakota and Lindsborg. Quite a few found their new homes in an entirely different location, on the Western frontier. None however could have been more surprised than those who landed in Sanpete County, Utah south of Salt Lake City. This isn't a book about Mormonism, although that is the mechanism that got these Swedes, Danes and Norwegians to Utah.
These so-called 'droll stories' represent how Scandinavian immigrants to Utah in the 1850s entertained themselves. Their new life was a hard one—adjusting to a raw, new country, a new language and a new church. They accepted these new hardships by making light of them, poking fun at society and each other. Eventually these waggish stories, told in the familiar vernacular, became the central feature of entertainment by which settlers greeted each other.
These stories represent part of the heritage of pioneers who had little else to cheer them. Writer Adams explains it this way,
"Life was hard and humor was one of the few defenses the people had against grievances. I marvel at how people today love to lecture about how much better things were in the 'good old days.' Some people who worry endlessly about automobile pollution can't imagine the effect of hundreds of horses on city streets, open sewage systems, drinking water from irrigation ditches and cooking over coal fires."
He further explains the people and why he concluded to collect some of these folk stories before they became lost:
The stories are not heroic, or poetic, or romantic; to me they are funny. The Swedes, Norwegians, and Danes at the center of the tales were a tough-bodied, warm-hearted, sly-humored lot, who turned their ironic eyes on themselves and each other. The result was a collection of stories loaded with broad, earthy humor and topped with dry wit.
Fortunate are those among us senior types who grew up in a community that had old grandpa and grandma Swenson, Hansen, Nelson, whatever—just off the boat, as we used to say—who spoke slowly, with a sober face but a twinkle in their blue eyes. They often substituted w for v (vell), y for j (by yiminy) and using d for the English th (dat). As the author's grandfather explained it, "Dere are yust some sounds that I don't believe the Good Lord meant Scandinavians to say."
When I went along eagerly with my veterinarian father to the second generation Norwegian farms in our community, I always hoped that the old grandfather (Nybroe, Rasmussen, Lampe, et al) would talk to my father about, 'Ven ve first comed to Kansas.' On the way home, I would get a more distinct clarification from dad.
But, enough of these warm up explanations—what we really need are some of the stories that were exchanged as the old timers gathered on the Wise Bench at the post office.
Here we can sample the Sanpete tales, and they are more enjoyable when you read them with the proper Scandinavian accent, and with a proper sober face.
Remembering the tendency to apply seemingly irrelevant nicknames the author's explanation for the need for nicknames is a choice part of the introduction:
Now that we are ready to get into what is a real page-turner, here are a few just (yust) to warm you up:
Stena Threecorner was one of the nastiest personalities in old Fort Ephraim, always fighting with her neighbors and vilifying people generally. When she died, it was practically impossible to get anyone to speak at the funeral. Finally False Bottom Peterson was persuaded to be the speaker. After the prayer and the opening song which was: "Nay, Speak No Ill," Brother Peterson began: "Vell, broders and sisters, der is von ting I can say in Sister Stena's favor. She vas not alvays as mean as she vas most of de time."
Brewsern answered,"Ya, at least only von of dem can be elected."
Chris Ole was brought into bishop's court charged with assault and battery for hitting Ole Thompson, a Swede, with a brick.
After the usual preliminaries, the bishop inquired: "Brodder Ole, vhy did you hit dis man?"
"Bishop," Chris replied, "he called me a damn Danish rascal."
"Vell, you are von, aren't you?" asked the bishop.
"Maybe so," said Chris, "but suppose somebody should call you a damn Danish rascal; vouldn't you hit him?"
"But I'm not von," answered the bishop.
"No, not a Danish von," replied Chris, "but suppose somebody called you de kind of a damn rascal you is; vouldn't you hit him?"
William Jenson Adams is Associate Professor of Communications at Kansas State University. His grandfather Edgar M. Jenson first collected these tales of the Sanpete pioneers.
The only story that appears to be missing from this excellent anthology is how Sanpete County got its name.
You tink mebbe dats gonna be in annuder book sometimes, heh?
Sanpete County was settled largely by Scandinavian converts to the LDS Church (77 percent of the population of the valley by 1880; 94 percent of Fort Ephraim). Leaving their homes and coming to a place that was not only frontier but also where a new language was spoken and a different culture was developing proved challenging, but the good folk had their faith—and a sense of humor—to see them through. They needed both.
And over the years, some great stories have been told and retold about those early settlers.
A number of them were compiled by Edgar M. Jenson, who, when he died in 1958, left copies to his three children with the instructions that they not be published until everyone mentioned had also died—just in case there were any sensitivities. So now, William Jenson Adams, a grandson, has put together a collection of tales, drawn from those original compilations.
Because so many people had the same names—the Peter Petersons and Jens Jensons, for example—almost everyone had a nickname: Shingle Pete, Salt Peter, Wheat Sack Olsen, False Bottom Peterson (and of course, every name had a story). Edgar Jenson himself was known as Eddie Miller (because his father ran a gristmill), and all these names add to the fun as you share the faith and foibles of these good folk.
The stories are told with a Scandinavian dialect, which takes a bit of getting into, and which might raise a red flag in these politically correct times, until you realize that there is nothing mean-spirited in the collection. The intent is not to make fun but to share loving insight, along with a laugh or two. And that it does.
You find yourself wishing you knew people like Faithful Andrew and Philosopher Pete, who could find a worthy lesson in pretty much anything. You kind of envy people who grew up in a town that had a "wise bench" in front of the Post Office, where people could sit and ponder life's meaning.
There's a lot of wit in this slim volume—but some fine wisdom, too.

One day Chris Lingo was haranguing Brother Brewsern about the poor quality of the democratic and republican candidates who were running for mayor of Ephraim.

RCP Community Liaison Officer chosen as a 2013 Disney Conservation Hero

We are thrilled to announce that RCP's Community Liaison Officer, Ayubu Msago, has been selected as one of the Disney Conservation Heroes for 2013! Msago truly deserves this honour – he has dedicated his whole career to wildlife conservation and has made huge positive impacts on both people and wildlife.
In 2009, Msago was part of the small team that started RCP under very difficult conditions – there were only 3 people living in small tents in a very remote wilderness area, and the local tribe, the Barabaig, were extremely secretive and hostile. Msago worked tirelessly to build a field camp for the project and spent years patiently trying to build relationships with the Barabaig, who were killing an extremely high number of lions, usually in response to attacks upon livestock. One night, a young Barabaig girl went missing, and Msago helped organize a search party for her and searched for 3 days till she was found, very dehydrated but alive, in the bush. This helped him bond with the fearsome Barabaig warriors, and enabled him to become the first outsider that they accepted and were willing to work with.
Msago also hashelped villagers protect their livestock from carnivores by constructing more than 50 predator-proof corrals, and not a single head of livestock has been lost in one of these enclosures. Msago works tirelessly to help villagers prevent carnivore attacks, and even heroically saved the life of a villager who was being attacked by a lion, at extreme risk to his own life. With only one bullet left in his gun, he chose to protect the villager rather than save a bullet in case it was needed in self-defence, and chased the lion off by shooting over her head.
Long-term conservation depends upon local people seeing real benefits from conservation, so Msago has also worked endlessly to develop meaningful community benefit initiatives. He worked with the national government to equip a healthcare clinic, helped establish secondary school scholarships for pastoralist children and developed a program to link village schools with international schools. He is endlessly passionate about conservation – he conducts wildlife DVD nights in local villages, which have engaged over 10,000 people so far, and has taken hundreds of warriors, women and schoolchildren on educational visits to the nearby National Park. Living in a small, remote tent, hundreds of miles from his wife and children, Msago is making a huge difference to the conservation of over a tenth of the world's remaining lions, while also helping local communities see real benefits from carnivore presence. His dedication, passion and patience have played a huge role in RCP's success – lion killings have declined in the core study area by 70%, and that could never have been achieved without Msago – he truly is a conservation hero and we are thrilled that he has received this international recognition.

RCP launches subsidised veterinary medicine programme

In late February 2013, the Ruaha Carnivore Project (RCP) launched a subsidised veterinary medicine programme that provides high-quality medicines to Ruaha-area pastoralists at a subsidised cost. The programme is in response to a survey of local villagers conducted by RCP, asking what benefits they would most appreciate from carnivore presence.
The medicines are available to people who have worked with RCP to fence their bomas (livestock enclosures), to reward those who have invested in predator-proofing and to encourage others to follow suit. And, because the majority of livestock loss in this area is due to illness and injury, not wildlife depredation, the medicines will help villagers reduce losses to disease, thereby improving their economic security.
We are grateful to the American Zoos and Aquariums Conservation Endowment Fund for helping us purchase and distribute the medicine.
