Blooming, I've always read that you're supposed to blanch green or yellow beans before freezing them. I did that last summer, but we never got to taste them; I didn't seal the bags properly, and they got freezer burned. Most people around here preferred canned beans to frozen ones, but I haven't had a chance to compare yet.
okay I'm thinking about being brave and trying a small batch of watermelon jam (canned)
This is the recipe I'm thinking of using:
Watermelon Jam
Recipe file created August 17, 2000.
Two variations -- one using the traditional "boil it until it jells" method, the other using fruit pectin.
Both are tasty.
3 cups watermelon
1/4 cup raspberries (optional)
1 cups watermelon juice or water
3 cups granulated sugar
6 tablespoons lemon juice
Remove seeds from watermelon and chop finely -- do not puree. Measure 3 cups.
Place 3 - 1/2 pint (1 cup) canning jars into canner. Cover with water. Bring to a boil. Let boil at least 10 minutes to sterilize jars.
Measure all ingredients into a large pot. Boil until juice reaches the jellying point -- 9 degrees F above the boiling point for water at your altitude. This will take about 20 minutes.
Prepare lids. The ones I use need to boil for 5 minutes before use. Check your package for directions.
Ladle jelly into hot canning jars, leaving 1/2 inch headspace. Wipe rims to remove any spillage. MAKE SURE THERE IS NO STICKINESS ON RIM. If there is, you will not get a good seal. Put lid and screw band on (fingertip tight), and place in boiling water canner.
Be sure all jars are covered with water. Return to a boil and process for 10 minutes. At altitudes over 1000 feet, process for 20 minutes. Remove jars and let sit overnight.
Check seals. Sealed lids will be curved down. If lid clicks when pressed, it is not sealed. Use these soon. Store the rest in a cool dark place.
Has anyone tried watermelon jam? Any thoughts?

Has anyone ever tried to can smaller batches of pickles using the Mrs. Wages quick process pickle mixes??? DH bought some packets to make my life easier, but I don't have the time to make 10 - 12 quarts at at time!!!

I canned jam today for the first time by myself. I've helped my mom for a few years but this was the first time on my own. I liked it much better working by myself!
I used Pamona's and made 5 half-pints of blueberry, using blueberries from my grandparents' patch, and 6 half-pints of strawberry. It certainly tastes great so I hope the consistency is nice.
As I was licking the pan after the strawberry jam was done I had a thought that I wanted to pass by you experts. If I poured the mixture onto sheets in the dehydrator instead of into canning jars would I end up with fruit leather?
I bought a pressure canner this year and I'm hoping to use it (or the water bath canning method where appropriate) for all sorts of things including, but not limited to: homemade stock/broth, soups, applesauce, tomatoes, pizza sauce, pickles, peaches, pumpkin
We have a ton of tomatoes in the garden, so I think I'll be busy!
I've never eaten canned chicken. Does it come out rubery or anything? If not, it might be nice to have some ready to toss in chicken pot pie instead of having to thaw the chicken and cook it before I can do the easy part.
Oh, and watermelon jelly sounds really good! I might have to try that!
I know nothing about canning or making jellies, but couldn't you just vaccum seal the jars instead of using the pressure....whatever? I'm sorry...even to me this question sounds stupid.....
I planted six tomato plants in my garden this year and I want to can salsa, but I need a recipe. Does anyone have any that they can share?
As I was licking the pan after the strawberry jam was done I had a thought that I wanted to pass by you experts. If I poured the mixture onto sheets in the dehydrator instead of into canning jars would I end up with fruit leather?
The directions on the "quick process" packet say you can keep the unused brine in the fridge. I have the packet on my counter, waiting for my cucumbers to grow! Since it's a seasoning product, I would think you should be able to divide the recipe by measuring how much powder is in there and using proportional vinegar/water/whatever else. It also says to use vinegar and water if you run out of brine before your jars are filled.

Bridget; You might have to hunt around for it. Some stores it is in with the seasonal items, some have it in with the baking items, some have it in random spots like the freezer aisle. Or, instead of hunting, you can just ask a clerk or manager, which is what I do

Shotgun's Car of the Day - 1977 Pontiac Grand Prix
1977 Pontiac Grand Prix - What is Love?
General Motors didn't invent the personal luxury car. They did, though, come to dominate the market segment with stylish cars like the Pontiac Grand Prix.
Experts divide the experience of love into three partly overlapping stages: lust, attraction, and attachment.
The 1969-1977 Grand Prix was built off what was known as the GM "g-body", a modified GM "a-body" intermediate platform. Grand Prix shared the g-body with the Pontiac Grand Am, Can Am and LeMans, the Chevrolet Monte Carlo, Malibu and El Camino, Buick Regal and Century and Oldsmobile Cutlass,
Lust is the initial passionate desire that promotes mating, and involves the increased release of chemicals such as testosterone and estrogen.
Grand Prix were known for baroque styling, luxury and to some degree and particular to the era, (high) performance. This Pontiac built 301 V-8, available as the base engine in 1977 GP's, with only 135 net horsepower, not withstanding.
Pontiac, somewhat whimsically, used Dusenberg vehicle model nomenclature to distinguish various levels of trim and available equipment. Grand Prix "L" (our subject car) was the base model. There was "LJ "for luxury and "SJ" for sport.
Recent studies in neuroscience has found that as people fall in love, the brain consistently releases a certain set of chemicals. These include pheromones, dopamine, norepinephrine, and serotonin. These chemicals act in a manner similar to amphetamines, stimulating the brain's pleasure center and leading to side effects such as increased heart rate, loss of appetite and sleep, and an intense feeling of excitement.
Insurance surcharges and federal mandates for safety and fuel economy, the latter necessitated by the 1973 energy crisis, eroded much of the performance of the Grand Prix. As a result, 1969-1972 Grand Prix, in general, are much stronger performers than 1977 models. A base, "L", in 1969, had a 265 horsepower (SAE net, approximately 200 hp net), 400 cubic inch engine. Subsequently, values of earlier GP's of this vintage have much higher values today compared to later models like our '77.
Since the lust and attraction stages are both considered temporary, a third stage is needed to account for long-term relationships.
The Grand Prix' interior was not immune to GM's notorious cost cutting. The interior of our L suffering from fake wood appliques and plastic injection molded bits that plagued interiors across the entire company.
Attachment is the bonding that promotes relationships lasting for many years and even decades. Attachment is generally based on commitments such as marriage and children, or on mutual friendship based on things like shared interests.
Pontiac sold 270,000 Grand Prix in 1977. Over the years, shifts in consumer taste have made personal luxury cars obsolete.
It has been linked to higher levels of the chemicals oxycontin and vasopressin to a greater degree than short-term relationships have.

Between the excitement of the midterm elections and the flood of atheism-related news that has occurred this month, there was one very important date that passed almost unnoticed, but that I would be remiss if I failed to mention. Namely, November 9 was the birthday of the famous astronomer and skeptic Carl Sagan. If he were still alive, he would have been 72 this month.Sagan's scientific achievements were groundbreaking and hardly need me to recount them. During a time when the human species … [Read more...]

New on Dangerous Intersection: Scorched-Earth Politics
To cap off an eventful day, I'm happy to announce that I've accepted an offer to become a guest author on the blog Dangerous Intersection.

Theocracy Watch VI: Thoughts in Captivity
There have been many pieces of good news for atheists in November, and I'm happy to be able to report another one. As reported in the November issue of Freethought Today, the Freedom from Religion Foundation has done it again, winning a major victory against the creeping theocracy that is infiltrating our government due to the unconstitutional actions of the Bush administration.Specifically, an FFRF legal challenge has persuaded the U.S. Bureau of Prisons to cancel its plans for five … [Read more...]
What Christians Care About?
In a post from October, I wrote that evangelical Christianity in America today has become "a set of right-wing political talking points" and lamented:Regrettably, the Christians who understand how the aggressive drive for secular power is rotting their faith's foundations from the inside out seem to be outnumbered by those who regard it as an unmitigated good.There is news on this front that, depending on how one interprets it, may be either good or bad. Take this story, President-elect … [Read more...]
Should Scientists Speak Out Against Religion?
Thanksgiving season this year has been anything but peaceful. Providing further evidence of the growing assertiveness of atheists, the war of words between faith and reason has erupted into the headlines once again. This time it came in the form of a scientific forum in California titled "Beyond Belief: Science, Religion, Reason and Survival", where a vigorous debate was waged over whether and how scientists should fight against religious belief in society.And the aftershocks of this debate … [Read more...]
We Are the Swing Vote
In a post from October titled "Tipping the Scales", I wrote that although non-believers are still outnumbered by the conventionally religious, there are encouraging signs of recent growth and increasing organization among atheists and agnostics, signs which...may well be the grains of sand that presage a much larger slide in the near future, and lead to a much more dramatic tipping of the scales.If I were inclined to claim supernatural foresight for myself, I might try to turn that … [Read more...]
So What If It Is?
Despite the Democrats' smashing victory in the 2006 midterm elections, there is still distressing evidence that America as a nation has much moral progress left to make. I am speaking of gay marriage bans, which were approved by voters in seven states (Arizona being the exception, and the first state in the nation to reject such a ban), bringing the total number of states with such a ban to 27. Several of these states have even more oppressive laws that prohibit not only gay marriage but any … [Read more...]

The Summer Before The Storm (edition 2006)
by Gabriele Wills
Work details
The Summer Before the Storm by Gabriele Wills
No current Talk conversations about this book.
Gabriele Wills takes a reader back in time in her book The Summer Before the Storm. It is more than just a story of a time period. It is more than a story about a family. It is the story of passion, survival, and determination.
When I started this book, I was expecting something lighter and obviously written in just a couple of months. I immediately realized that this was a book that could not just be read in one night or even a couple of days. This was an epic story that would take me much longer to enjoy and fully get the impact.
Ms. Wills is one of the most talented writers I have read in a long time. She paints the world for the reader where you could easily just step into the picture and actually feel the air from the lake on your face and hear the noises of the elegant gatherings around you. She has written more than a story. She has written a world to get lost in.
Her characters are full of color and depth. They are real. They are vibrant. Their feelings become the reader's. Her writing talent is exceptional as she weaves a plot that cannot simple be described in a book summary or a review. It is woven in a complex yet enjoyable pattern.
This is truly a book you have to read. If you like a book set back in time with characters that will stay with you long after you've closed the book and loaned it to a friend.
Note: This book was provided as part of a book tour with no expectation of a positive review.
Book Tour Review & Giveaway: We're today's stop on the Virtual Book Tour for The Summer Before the Storm, Book #1 in the Muskoka Trilogy by Gabriele Wills. I don't normally participate in a lot of book tours but there was something about this one that I found fascinating. I love historical novels and I always want to learn more about Canada, probably because I've never met a Canadian I didn't like. The Summer Before the Storm did not disappoint. Read the rest of my review & enter to win a copy at http://popcornreads.com/?p=4931.
When I first came across The Summer Before the Storm it was said that if you like Downton Abbey you should try this book. I'm a huge fan of the show so I thought I would give this book a go. This novel is set in a group of islands in Canada. I've only been to Canada once and it was beautiful. So I could easily imagine the scenery that the author writes about. The main focus of this book is the Wyndham family. At the head of the family is the grandmother. She is not only the matriarch but also rules everything with a tight fist. There are dozens of characters in this book. If that frightens you then be assured, the author has provided a cast of characters at the beginning of the novel.
The Summer Before the Storm takes place in 1914. Times are about to change in a drastic way, but before they do we get to spend some get-to-know-you time with the family. This is definitely a character driven novel. For the most part, it centers around Victoria and Jack. Victoria has grown up in luxury. She's spunky with a whole lot of gumption. Jack's father was disowned by the Wyndham family. He grew up poor and after his father died, he decided to reconnect with his Wyndham relations. The family welcomes him. However, the author drops a few red herrings that things might not be what they seem. I like both Jack and Victoria. Victoria has quite a bit of growing up to do in this book. And Jack, though he knows what he wants, might not do what ever it takes to get it.
The family in itself is dynamic and complex like any huge family. The author portrays the family life in a realistic way. I enjoyed reading this book. Although at times I felt like this book was longer than it should be, when I got to the end I still wanted to read more. I do want to continue with this series. I'm hooked now, and I want to find out what happens to Victoria and Jack. This book takes you back to a sweet period in time then leads you into a war ravaged country. This book is very engaging and I'd recommend it. The Summer Before the Storm is the first book in The Muskoka Trilogy. The next book in this series is Elusive Dawn followed by Under the Moon.
When I saw the gorgeous boat on the cover of this book and found out that it was mostly set amongst summer cottages on a lake, I knew that it was a book that I had to read. Several generations of my family spend the summer together at a remote lake cottage on an island and although our area is not quite like Muskoka, I could vividly picture the life they led, the dramas that played out, and the feeling of belonging that the area and cottage inspired. Set during the Age of Elegance in Canada in the easy lull just before the world erupted into the horrible and deadly World War I, Gabriele Wills' The Summer Before the Storm is an engrossing look at lives of privilege and entitlement and the ways in which their world is already changing irreparably.
Focused primarily on the extended Wyndham family, the novel opens with a handsome and audacious waiter bending down and whispering something into the ear of the proper and wholey class conscious matriarch of the very wealthy family, something that makes grandmother Augusta Wyndham blanch. The waiter, it seems, is a Wyndham, the eldest child of the disowned but still much mourned and beloved youngest son Alex. With Jack's bold introduction to the family, tensions between the Wyndhams will tighten and strain. His advent foreshadows the coming conflict acoss the ocean and marks the start of the last "normal" summer at the cottage and Muskoka. Although Augusta is willing to accept the advent of this son of her rogue son, she is a canny and observant woman and she keeps a close eye on the goings on around her. Jack is a schemer and having spent his entire life thus far in poverty, he is determined to not only get into his fabulously wealthy family's good graces but to stay in their monied bosom forever more. And to that end, he chooses his cousin Victoria, a young woman testing the boundaries of propriety and taste, a new breed of freer woman, and clearly the apple of her grandmother's eye despite her outspokeness and forward thinking, modern choices.
The summer passes slowly and lazily as the Wyndhams and their social set, including those not entirely acceptable to them except in the more relaxed atmosphere of Muskoka, embark on their usual summer amusements: a regatta, a swimming contest, tennis matches, canoeing, parties, swimming, and endless visiting amongst the myriad of privately owned islands in the lake. New adult relationships are formed, unwelcome news is uncovered and brushed firmly back under the rug; the Wyndham grandchildren are growing older and becoming adults; the long-standing tensions between the remaining Wyndham sons and their wives escalates with sharp words and frequent spats. New neighbors are met and folded into the social fabric of the lake society. And the myriad of servants face their own belowstairs dramas. In short, aside from the advent of Jack's coming, which has supercharged the atmosphere, the summer of 1914 is little different from previous summers until the July announcement of war, when reality intrudes on this shangri-la.
The book is sweeping and epic in scale and feel with a marvelous grandeur of times past. It is hard to get into in the beginning because the cast of characters is altogether overwhelming. There are a full four and a half pages for the character list before the novel even begins and although many of them don't enter the book until later, it is a challenge to keep the early characters straight until they are well and fully introduced. But once the story focuses on fewer members of the family, really those whose lives will carry the story (and ostensibly the further two books in the trilogy), the confusion settles down and the reader can settle into an engrossing and addictive read.
The languor and indolence of the monied class and their complete insularity is brilliantly captured here as is the strict insistence on maintaining the illusion of elitism. The young generation is striving to break the tighter propriety bonds that stifle them and there is certainly a rising awareness of social inequity and a desire to make the world a better place. As the war blows into the lives of this community, everything shifts and changes with the young men joining up and leaving for England and the young women left at home, at least initially, to carry on in a world changed forever. The historical detail here is marvelous and complete. The beginning of the book is slow and fluid feeling but the end pelts along at an increased clip and time feels compressed as indeed it must have with the war raging. The ending felt more like a cliffhanger before book two than a completion but that's a minor quibble and I look forward to revisiting the altered lives of the Wyndhams, Victoria in particular. Historical fiction readers will sink into this tale, happily immersed in the end of an era that is marching relentlessly into a terrible and costly war.
This book takes you to a world not seen by many people - a world of "cottages" on private islands and personal steamboats. It takes place in what can only be a glorious area of Canada just before the onset of WWI. We meet the very wealthy Wyndham family just as they meet a long lost relative. The book is populated with well defined characters of all stripes from the ahead of her time Victoria to the entitled sons of the family who don't want this interloping new nephew Jack coming forth to claim any of the money they think is all theirs.
The Muskoka area is full of people both rich and not so rich and Ms. Wills can draw a reader in and make that reader feel as if she were in that brand new speedboat on the lake feeling the warmth of the day and the spray of the water. I love a book that causes you to just totally get lost in the story and this is that book. I would have read it in a couple of sessions if not for Hurricane Sandy and worry about my family. I just couldn't concentrate and I didn't want to lose any of this great story. (My family is in New Jersey - they are all OK.)
The book takes us through the beginnings of the war and training of certain characters in the RAF. The tales of the fighter pilots are harrowing and war is, as always hell. The Lusitania and her sinking play a very large role and that horrific attack is hard to read. The ending is a touch histrionic but it sets up the next book in what is going to be a trilogy. I will be looking forward to it most ardently and will keep this book on my shelf to re-read in advance of its arrival. Yes, this one is a keeper and you know how few I keep to re-read.

Dreams of todays duck hunt woke me from a dead sleep, heart racing and adrenaline pumping! Got to love that feeling! The anticipation is almost as good as watching the bird fold in the deeks.
The day I stop being excited about hunting is the day I hang up my waders.
Well boys this may be my last hunt of the season but I'm cocked locked and ready to rock how about you?
See ya out there k9horseluvr, duck slayR, Bad moon rising, the old lady aka (Frog), and andrew.

"Stomp" is concentrated doom with deep pressured coded into the wandering sub, industrial swagger and slo-mo mentasms.

Surf Playa Venao
The break is best approaching and around high tide. When it's real big, there are good breaks in other spots on the same beach. It does close out when the waves go much higher than 8 feet.
The sand floor means its also a great beginners beach. People say that you can learn in a few weeks what would take months in other spots – mainly because of the consistent waves in Venao.
Playa Venao is considered Panama's best beach break. The main wave breaks left and right. There is usually always something to surf unlike other spots in the area that depend on swells. During the week the sea is often empty, making it a surfers dream. At weekends locals do come and ride waves, but the nature of the beach break means it rarely feels crowded.
There is usually surf all year round. However, you're more likely to get sweet offshore winds during the dry season (January – May).
There are several other great surf breaks in the area, such as Madroño Beach – the next beach over from Venao.

There are several other great surf breaks in the area, such as Madroño Beach – the next beach over from Venao.
If you're feeling motivated, find transportation out to Guanico or Cambutal – around an hours' drive, but well worth it once you are there.
La Garita and Playa El Toro in Pedasí are especially popular with body boarders.

One For the Road
I wanted to squeeze one more post in, before I hit the road tonight, see you in Boston.

seu trabalho é MUITO BOM parabéns Alberto.

I love it.
Something I notice is the proportions are slightly less than perfect - but I don't mind at all. Maybe it's because people aren't perfect. I know I'm not. :)
And that hair! - do you have a habit you fall into when contructing hair, or do you just meander around with the pencil?
- September 30, 2005 2:06 PM
- wcr1 said...
Ditto Corkbutt, esp. about the hair.
I'm still waiting for that long-promised L.A.-area workshop, now fading into the land of What Might Have Been.
In general, I (and surely others) am interested in your thoughts on technique in drawing.
- September 30, 2005 5:41 PM
- Stef said...
I've been to Boston last August and I loved it! Hope you'll have fun over there!
Great drawing by the way!
- October 01, 2005 7:10 PM
- Kristen McCabe said...
YOWZA! She's gorgeous! Gotta love the mole!
- October 01, 2005 10:38 PM

Sandra: Both.
BigBeatty, Kristen:Thanks, guys.
Stef: Boston is just a gorgeous city, your drawings really did it justice.
Vanoni!: "do you have a habit you fall into when contructing hair, or do you just meander around with the pencil?"
I try to avoid falling into any sort of pattern, (proportions, hair, body types or facial features) obviously, I don't always succeed, but none the less I fight to become increasingly aware of my tendencies, both good and bad.
Most times I catch myself repeating the same "formula" and just for the fuck of it (you can call it experimenting) I draw against the form or purposely take a turn the other way and explore a totally unfamiliar and uneasy path; for instance, I've always known I have the tendency to draw everything facing left, so for months at a time I force myself to draw everything looking the opposite way, by becoming aware of my habits I'm able to keep things interesting for myself, otherwise I'd fall into long spells of inactivity and the dreaded "artist's block". My only consistency is inconsistency :)
Like i said, the results don't always work to my advantage but I've been pleasantly surprised many times.
WCR1: "I'm still waiting for that long-promised L.A.-area workshop, now fading into the land of What Might Have Been."
The L.A. workshop really doesn't depend on me, I've always said that if there's enough interest, I'd just fly out there and spend 4 to six hours doodling and sharing my evil ways with a bunch of receptive and willing individuals, I did that twice last year, one workshop in N.Y. and one in the L.A. area, the thing is, I don't want to be the one organizing it.
Mike Manley came up with the idea of the Draw! magazine "joint" seminar, (meaning a workshop given by Bret Blevins, Mike and myself ) I said I'd gladly do it but I wanted no part of the organizing, I know for a fact that Mike's current obligations and crazy workload prevented him from putting this thing together in a timely fashion, so that's where we stand.
If you want to set up a small workshop with a few interested peeps, I'd be more than happy to make myself available, charge a nominal fee to cover my travel/hotel expenses and bingo!, all I need is an empty room and a six-pack of Corona. (a live model would be nice but optional)
spundman: "Master Bator" me llaman :) Gracias mil, pero mira quien habla!
Edinho: Grato pelos comentários. Eu segui a link a seu website, você tem uma página muito creativa, mim gosto de sua diversidade. O desenho vermelho da tinta é esplêndido!
Espero você permita que eu afixe uma ligação a seu flog.

so how was Boston?
- October 04, 2005 7:37 AM
- Process Junkie said...
Thanks Lou.
Mike, I''ll be posting my full report later this afternoon.

I've linked you on my blog, hope you don't mind! :)

The Holy Ghost Is Real
Madeleine B., age 6, Illinois
One Sunday I was reading a story from the December 2007 Friend called "The Holy Ghost Is Real." While I was reading about the Holy Ghost, tears came to my eyes and I couldn't stop them. The Holy Ghost helped me to know that He is real.
Looking Forward to the Friend
Jake N., age 12, Missouri
I look forward to the Friend every month because I find the stories interesting and can relate to them. I live in Missouri, and there are not a lot of members of the Church here. I am excited to hear about children who are members of the Church all over the world.
I Love the Friend
Mariah L., age 9, Utah
I love the Friend because it has lots of stories and activities that I like to read and do. One of my favorite things to read is Friends by Mail. One reason I like that page is because it tells how Jesus helps us. When I read Friends by Mail, I see how other people have made good choices when they were faced with hard decisions. This helps me know that I can make good decisions too.
Favorite Story
Paola H., age 7, California
My favorite story in the November 2008 Friend was "Same-Size Service." I liked it because it shows that it is very kind to help someone have fun when they are not having fun, but you are.

Perez brings culture, faith to his work with the less fortunate
Capt. Beau Perez, 53, a native of Guam, has brought to Roswell a world of culture, knowledge and understanding as the new Corps Officer at Roswell's Salvation Army for the past year. Perez said he naturally incorporates values of faith and traditional beliefs from his jungle roots on the island Guam into his job.
"(Guam) is kissing island,†he said. "On Guam, you kiss your elders' hands. After church, young people, when the elders walked out of church they would wait to get a blessing from their elders. It's all about family.â€
Much of what Perez does as an administrator, "delegator,†pastor and teacher at the Salvation Army is centered around family values and helping others mend the fences of their lives back together. He said that growing up in Guam taught him about the responsibilities that others have to their loved ones and their community.
[auth] "Nobody ever goes hungry on Guam,†he said. "There will never be a convalescent home on Guam, because no matter how old your grandparents get, you take care of them … it requires that somebody be at home all day.â€
During the week, Perez makes his home at the Salvation Army, 612 W. College Blvd., where he leads Sunday services and programs like Life's Healing Choices. Life's Healing Choices is a 12-step rehabilitation program for individuals struggling with addictions. Perez works with addicts from all walks of life, who suffer from various addictions, which require a certain meekness as prescribed by his Christian faith.
"People who have been hurt are very cautious or skittish, they don't want to be hurt anymore,†Perez said. "If you approach them with humility, that's kind of disarming, then you can have a conversation and accomplish what the goal is. (You have to explain to them]) 'I'm really just like you, except my circumstances are different.'â€
Perez graduated from United States Military Academy at Westpoint in 1982 with a bachelor's of science degree. During that time, Perez also served in the U.S. Army as a mechanic and infantry officer. He continued his service through 1988. In 1992, Perez earned his theology degree from Fuller Theological Seminary.
While in the military, Perez's tenure took him back home to Guam, Germany and cities all over the U.S., where he said he learned how to become a planner. He credits his acquired skill of planning with helping him on a mission he completed with California's Salvation Army branch before moving to Roswell.
"Doing disaster work, you've got to do the best you can with what you have,†he said. "During Hurricane Rita … we spread out the map and executed Vietnam battle tactics — only with food. Instead of search and destroy, it was search and feed. The military does that for you.â€
This holiday season, Perez is doing exactly that. Through the Salvation Army, in partnership with Golden Corral, he's distributing holiday cookies to about 40 churches in the community. He characterized the Salvation Army's work as the servitude that Martha, of the Bible's New Testament, displays. He said that the organization's responsibility is to serve and help others become happy.
"As many people as I can influence to become reasonably happy — supremely happy, I want to return the maximum investment … in lives that have discovered Christ.†Perez, a father of five, has been married to his wife, Mandy, for 29 years.
His hobbies include blogging and playing Xbox with his sixth-grade son Daniel.

I'd say stop drawing on trains and start making full letters.
@MN Nice-I like the top one,has a nice flow. But the bottom, not feeling the loops and the colours are not working for me
Mo-Town bombers PM me
@neso sweet black book
@naked nice page keep em comin not diggen the colors either tho but there gettin better
@gemer im not feel in the arrows but your hand styles fresh
@MN Nice I'm feel in it just not the blues
@neso i agree quit coloring trains no offence i did like the orange one though
ha yea for you^ my bad
Mo-Town bombers PM me
Crits, feel your letters more. Give them emotion, give them limbs. Think of them as people. Come up with a backstory, a family and medical history. n occupation. Did your letters grow up in a nice sensible suburb? Do they work in a car wash? Do they live on the streets? Think bout your letters mood and responsibilities within the set. Are they proppng up, pulling over or tangling with other letters. With their limbs make that important. Don't think of the outside, think of the underneath. The physical structure of the thing.
For instance, if you were to draw a person would you just draw the outside and hope it turns out all right? of course not. Start with the bone structure, work out how the limbs are supposed to relate and move with each other. Flow correctly instead of unnaturally. The same applies to letters. You can't have their bones and internal organs all mooshed up funny, they will just end up looking awkward and end up with health complications. Like a Pug dog, or a Person with bone-itis.
haha lol ^^
i think i could of made the "b" a little bigger, and fix the last leg of the "m" near the top
Mo-Town bombers PM me
He's juss tryin to say letter structure is important, lol.
c-sone i cant really give you any constructive crit on those, but i can drop ma dollar.
perspective is kind of wierd on first one, i know what u meant to do, but it didnt came out well, s si one level above the other two. I had troubles on finding letters in second one i can see the s and o, still didnt find n and e. And i think you aint planing to bomb that. I suggest you post it in the intermediate thread, there you'll get better crits.
@gemer shorten those arrow/extensions, try giving letters the same lean. Dont make m that "spacey" next time, you kill flow with that. Try to reduce this space with letter bars, also on down/right part of g. Overall nice work, its got potential.
ill stuff gem your letters are ruude n sone your styles on point with that pen game. you guys wont get much qualitative input from most of the kats in this thread imo move it to intermediate
quick ting
absolutly horrible outline. playing with stuff for my end of a Slotr exchange.
i really like blue an yellow together! crits please!
Beko: Koto, Kote? T isn't bad. That K needs some work. And whatever is on the end needs medical attention. You're improving over all, but keep working on your straights and getting them to flow.
ya beko that k needs some work..the charecter isnt bad, in my opinion lose the splashes coming off the charecter
looks to me like theres a lot of rockin been going on....i had a few days off drawing... did these today

The Youth Advocacy Project for Routt County (YAP) envisions a strategic network of collaborative, sustainable youth serving agencies that builds resiliency in youth and guides them towards their optimal potential.
Michael and Sara Craig-Scheckman founded the Craig-Scheckman Family Foundation, a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization, in the spring of 2005. The Craig-Scheckmans made their move from New York in the summer of 2003, trading in a hectic life for a more peaceful, outdoor life in Steamboat Springs, Colorado. Sara grew up vacationing in Steamboat with her parents and brothers, and now her entire family permanently resides in beautiful Routt County, and call Steamboat Springs home. Michael and Sara have four bright and wonderful daughters: Rachel, Rebecca, Dawn, and Madeline. The Craig-Scheckmans believe in strong families and strong communities, and are very pleased to provide funding which will directly benefit Routt County youth and youth-serving agencies.
Michael Craig-Scheckman grew up in New York City. He is a registered investment advisor and has over 30 years of professional experience in the field of finance and investment. Since 2003 Michael has been president of Deer Park Road Corporation in Steamboat Springs, Colorado. Deer Park is a registered Investment Advisor and the manager of STS Partners Fund, a hedge fund that invests in asset backed securities.
Sara Craig-Scheckman was raised in California and later moved to New York to attend law school. She has dedicated her professional life to working with special needs, at-risk, and low income youth. Sara has worked directly with a wide variety of children with special needs, including emotionally and physically abused children, youth with physical and cognitive disabilities, and youth in the juvenile justice system. After graduating from law school, Sara worked in the area of youth law advocacy, providing direct civil legal services. Sara is fluent in Spanish and has advocated for the rights of immigrant children and families.
Craig-Scheckman Funding
The Craig-Scheckman Family Foundation (CSFF) gives $480,000 annually as Youth Advocacy Project (YAP) grants, and an additional $125,000 in "discretionary funding" to organizations that have received YAP support in the past. These discretionary dollars may be used for event sponsorship, support of a challenge grant, or for other purposes as seen fit by Sara and Michael Craig-Scheckman. The Foundation also provides approximately $95,000 in funding through CSFF General Discretionary Funds to local youth and family organizations that fall outside of the YAP Grant Guidelines. Total annual CSFF contributions are $700,000. In addition to the Foundation, Sara and Michael Craig-Scheckman are generous philanthropists and make personal donations to select causes at their discretion.

Following the recent debuts of the Leaf Nismo and Juke Nismo comes this March Nismo, based on the small hatchback also known as the Micra or (in Taiwan) as the Verita. Nismo has given it a enhanced sportiness through lightweight wheels, updated grille and aero kit, new door mirrors and sportier seats and steering wheel inside.
It's all capped by a pearl white finish with red highlights, but while the Nismo parts catalog is sure to offer bolt-ons for the March, this particular configuration is strictly a concept. Check it out in the pair of high-resolution images along with the press release after the jump.
YOKOHAMA, Japan (January 13, 2012)- Nissan Motor Co., Ltd. today revealed the March Nismo Concept at Tokyo Auto Salon 2012. This surprise unveiling marks the third premium sports compact released from Nismo, following on the Juke Nismo Concept and the LEAF Nismo Concept.
Based on the Nissan March and fitted with Nismo exclusive parts, the March Nismo Concept is an expression of how a premium sports compact can marry practicality with exciting driving performance.
The concept's exterior features a lower stance and bolder styling thanks to a modified front grille design and the addition of dedicated, efficiency-enhancing aeroparts that were developed as part of Nismo's racing technology. Additionally, the door mirror design has been tailored, and a rear lip spoiler added, to further enhance the car's aerodynamic performance.
In the interior, Nismo's purpose-designed seats and steering wheel have been adopted to aid smooth interaction between the driver and the car.
The March Nismo Concept is painted pearl white with red highlights, the signature Nismo colors for performance-focused premium sports models, similar to the Juke Nismo Concept.
Fitted with several of Nismo's vaunted racing technologies, such as a high-performance suspension and large-diameter lightweight wheels, the March Nismo Concept delivers superior handling and stability that adds to the pleasure of sporty driving.

Students will learn about the pop art movement. They will then create pictures of ice cream cones.Objectives:
The students will be able to:
Motivation and Discussion:
The students will view and discuss the paintings and sculptures of the Pop Art movement of the 1960's. They will understand that Pop Art's aim was to break down the barriers between art and life. Pop Art is a western cultural phenomenon. It's center was America.
It was born in New York and London, the new art centers of the western world. As a result, the cultures of the entire world have become Americanized.
The subject matter of Pop Art is made up of ordinary objects from everyday life. The objects are distorted, enlarged, simplified and colored differently.
Commercial materials and techniques are used to produce the art.
Pop Art mirrored contemporary reality and reflected upon the cultural changes of the 1960's. These changes included: the music of the Beatles and the Rolling Stones, the idealism of the Kennedy era, the reality of the assassination of President John F. Kennedy in 1963, the outbreak of the Vietnam war in 1964, and the race riots and drug addiction in the United States.
The class will discuss favorite ice cream treats: sundae, soda, banana split, and cone. The teacher will remind the class to "think like an artist". The art should be visually interesting.

Syrian President Bashar al-Assad escaped death or injury when rebels launched a mortar attack on his convoy early Thursday. The incident suggests "the country's crippling civil war is edging [its way] to its seat of power," The Guardian reports.
Assad was traveling to a mosque in the Damascus suburb of Malki where he has an office and a home when the attack took place. Residents told The Guardian that at least three mortars or small rockets landed as his motorcade arrived in the Enas bin Malik province at the beginning of the three-day Islamic festival of Eid al-Fitr.
It's not clear whether the convoy was hit. Syrian Information Minister Omran al-Zoubi denied the attack had occurred and said Assad was safe and well. But two rebel groups that claimed the attack said there were some casualties and damage to at least one vehicle. Claims from both sides have often directly contradicted each other since the civil war's beginning in early 2011.
—Posted by Alexander Reed Kelly.
The Guardian:
Malki has remained a relatively safe district of the capital as war has raged nearby. Rebels have proved difficult to dislodge from areas in the south and west of the city that have emerged as opposition strongholds over the past year despite relentless regime counter-attacks.
From areas such as Douma, Yarmouk and Daraya, all within the city limits, a combination of Islamist and mainstream opposition groups have been able to launch attacks on areas that house security buildings and the presidential palace.
The apparent attack on Assad is thought to be the first to target high profile members of the regime since a bomb detonated in a national security building in Damascus in July 2012, where senior officials were holding a planning meeting. That attack, claimed by the opposition, killed Assad's brother-in-law, Assef Shawkat, as well as Syria's defence minister and several other key officials.

New Delhi, Jan. 9: The victim of the December 16 gang rape wanted the six men who assaulted her to be hanged, according to her dying declaration.
"I want them to be hanged so that no other criminal can do this kind of torture and ill-treatment to any other girl. In fact, such criminals should be burnt alive," she had told a sub-divisional magistrate who recorded her statement at Safdarjung Hospital on December 23, two weeks before pre-trial proceedings began.
The 23-year-old paramedical student wrote the names of five of the accused on a piece of paper from her hospital bed, a top Delhi police source said. She also scribbled two lines on the paper: "Kuch logon ko aate dekha…. aur rod se ladai ki aur lohe" (Saw some people coming… and (was) attacked with a rod and iron…)."
"The piece of paper will be placed before the trial court," a senior police officer said. Pre-trial proceedings started on January 7.
The young woman, who was grievously injured in the assault and died six days later, could not write any further.
"They took me to the back of the bus, tore my clothes and took turns to rape me. They also assaulted me with an iron rod and bit me everywhere. They inserted the rod inside my body and the six people took turns to rape for nearly an hour. I was semi-conscious," she said in the December 23 declaration.
The victim told the magistrate she suspected something amiss after boarding the bus as the conductor locked the door and switched off the lights. "But the conductor of the bus had already taken Rs 20 as fare and the bus had started moving by then. That's why we kept seated," the statement said.
The men then started abusing her male friend before beating him up, she said.
In a second statement, given to a metropolitan magistrate on December 25, the victim said the accused took her for dead when they threw her out of the bus. "They said, 'the girl is dead. Throw her'."
The young woman also told the metropolitan magistrate she could identify the rapists.
Two of the men had pretended to be passengers, she said. The men had taken turns to drive the bus, the victim also said.
Police sources said the main accused, bus driver Ram Singh, had revealed during interrogation that he and his co-accused had planned to pick up a "female passenger to have sex and make merry" before they had set out for a "joy ride" on December 16 evening.
"He also disclosed that they wanted to kill the victim and her friend so as to ensure their identities did not come to light," an officer said.
In a statement to a magistrate that was recorded before the victim's statements, her friend and the lone witness said three of the six accused first beat him up, slapped and kicked him.
"I fought back but two more persons joined and started beating me up. I tried to hide under the seat but they brought a rod and assaulted me on the head, hand and leg. My friend tried to save me but two of them took her to the back of the bus. They asked the driver to speed up. They beat me severely and made me almost unconscious. They tore her clothes and took turns to rape her. She was screaming," he said.

DIY: Stewart Water Pump + Expansion Tank + Coolant Change + 2 Tensioner Pullies

My Ride: 2004 330i smg
View My Garage
My upper radiator hose split three days after I received my car back from a smg to manual conversion. I had a lightweight flywheel installed so I'm assuming the quick acceleration and 3 month of no use was alittle to much for the hose. I love the low coolant indicator with alarm tone. My needle never moved from center. I replaced the upper hose and all is good.
I decided to refresh the entire cooling system essentials minus sensors which I can do on a later date. Belts and pulleys will be replaced as well.
Not to bore everyone, all the basic cooling parts and belts/pulleys I just purchased. The icing on the cake is the Stewart waterpump, ECS aluminum waterpump pulley, aluminum thermostat housing, and oil filter housing assembly gasket.
EDIT: Update on cooling system overhaul
Before I replaced any part that was cooling system related, I focused my time on replacing the oil filter housing gasket. It's not difficult. Just set aside the power steering pump and reservoir, remove alternator, and go ahead and remove the six bolts holding the oil filter housing. I cleaned the mating surfaces and installed new gasket. Hopefully this will solve my mysterious low oil every couple months. Next I went ahead and installed new A/C tensioner and pulley, idler pulley, deflector pulley, Stewart water pump, ECS aluminum overdrive waterpump pulley, ECS aluminum thermostat housing, lower rad hose, expansion tank, all drain plugs, engine plug washer, bleeder screw, fan temp sensor, ET level sensor, and both belts. Then flushed with distilled agua only and ran for about 20 minutes checking for leaks. All was fine. Drained and filled with BMW coolant and distilled agua. My back hurts...

Helms lives on the street side and Krakau on the side nearest the courtyard.
Krakau sits next to him working out a problem on a chess board.
He had formerly been teaching Hebrew in Krakau, and from thence came to Knigsberg.
They wanted some one else, but I said: "No, let's ask Krakau; it will please him."
At last so high were they that cities appeared like flies and Krakau with its mighty turrets like two spiders.
The stove is on Krakau's side, but by way of compensation Helms has an upholstered arm chair with a tall back.
Helms' side is conspicuously ill kept and in disorder; Krakau's side is spick and span.
On our return from Praga, a deputation from the Hebrew congregation of Krakau was introduced.

The American air traveler has been remarkably docile over recent years. Take my shoes off? Fine. Put my liquids in a baggy where you can see them (but not test them)? No problem. Strip off my belt and watch and rings? Happy to. Subject myself to potentially dangerous radiation in a machine that hasn't been proven to work? I'm ready.
But the TSA finally seems to have crossed a line. We're hearing more and more stories about outrage on the part of passengers across the country.
It's being fueled by reports like the one about a woman being told to remove her prosthetic breast. Or the man whose aggressive pat down left him urine-stained despite his warnings to be careful with his urostomy bag. And the 71-year-old man who had to take his pants down in a public space for a knee replacement to be checked out.
The TSA is finally facing the fury it's long deserved, and the key ingredient is shame. That's right, in a culture where reality shows rule the airwaves and nobody seems to be ashamed of anything anymore, shame is driving the discussion.
According to psychologists like Gershen Kaufman, shame is a basic human feeling. Its core is a sense of exposure and that can take many forms. We can feel exposed about a misdeed (guilt), or exposed in front of an audience (shyness) or exposed for doing something silly (embarrassment). In its most extreme form, shame is humiliation and it can drive us into rage.
That's what the TSA has unwittingly done. It's enraging the American public by humiliating us through intrusive, invasive, idiotic security measures that leave many of us feeling helpless and ashamed. Imagine having had cancer surgery and having your body invaded once again, by strangers who don't seem to have the least bit of empathy or kindness.
These stories trigger our own sense of shame for the people suffering through them, and anxiety that we could be next. It's a nightmare. And half-hearted responses from the head of TSA only make things worse.
We had to put up with the lie that the government needed naked images of us and our loved ones to make us all safe, and these images couldn't be stored. Now we've been asked for "patience" and presented with a phony choice: be humiliated by these pat-downs or get blown up.
Shame sometimes has a powerful positive effect: it alerts us to outrages against human dignity, it makes us fight to right a wrong. That's what partly fuels movements for social change. In the cascade of TSA stupidity, there's one thing to be thankful for this holiday season: in pushing us too far, the TSA might be forcing us to wake up and take action.

BRPD urges safety ahead of July 4 festivities
BATON ROUGE - Local law enforcement wants everyone to have a fun, but safe, Fourth of July and have some safety tips and information to make it happen.
The big three safety concerns mentioned by BRPD Chief Carl Dabadie are fireworks, guns and drunk driving. Dabadie said officers will be on the lookout for violators all the way through the holiday and weekend.
Police wish to remind citizens that fireworks are illegal everywhere within the city limits of Baton Rouge, in addition to all of East Baton Rouge parish, and will be confiscated if found. Violators could face criminal charges.
Fireworks are allowed in the following parishes:
- Iberville Parish
- West Feliciana Parish
- East Feliciana Parish
- St. Helena Parish
- WBR Parish
Some surrounding parishes only allow fireworks in rural areas outside of city limits:
- Ascension Parish
- Livingston Parish
- Point Coupee Parish
- Assumption Parish
Chief Dabadie also said officers will strictly enforce the law against anyone caught in the act of firing a gun into the air.
Several sobriety checkpoints are planned and patrols will be actively looking for drunk or impaired drivers on roads throughout the city as holiday celebrations commence, according to Dabadie.
BRPD also encourages citizens who plan to turn out for the downtown Fourth of July event and fireworks display to observe the event's rules to ensure a safe time for all. Chief Dabadie said there will be "zero tolerance" for criminal activity at the event, and over 100 uniformed officers will be on patrol throughout the downtown area for the festivities.
Ice chests, BBQ pits, tents and pets are not allowed to be brought into the grounds so police encourage festival-goers to prepare accordingly. Police encouraged motorists to arrive at the event early if they are driving and be aware of downtown exit ramp closures on the interstate. Motorists are reminded to use all available entrances into the downtown area including River Road, North Street, Laurel Street, Florida Blvd., North Blvd., Government Street and Convention Street in order to reduce traffic jams.
Law enforcement intends to clear the area as soon as the event ends and said loitering will not be tolerated.
WBRZ.com will keep a list of Independence Day events updated throughout the holiday.

Habitat for Humanity distributes shelter repair kits to families affected by Typhoon Haiyan
Kits are the first distributed in Cebu province
25 Nov, 2013, 14:12 ET from Habitat for Humanity
DAANBANTAYAN, Philippines, Nov. 25, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Habitat for Humanity distributed shelter repair kits over the weekend to 240 families affected by Typhoon Haiyan in Daanbantayan, the northernmost municipality on the island of Cebu in the Philippines. The kits contain plywood, lumber, galvanized iron sheets, a hammer, a saw and nails. In addition to distributing the kits, Habitat provides training on safe building practices.

"Often after a disaster, victims spend as much as six months living in tents or barracks," said Leonilo Escalada, Habitat for Humanity Philippines chief operating officer. "The shelter repair kits will put recipients in the fast lane toward recovery because we provide them with the materials and the tools to improve their housing situation. And we're showing them how to build back better, so we're also giving them hope."
The shelter repair kits are the first of their kind to be distributed in the province.
"Habitat is the first to do this," said Cecille Du of the Philippine government's department of social welfare and development. Du accompanied Habitat staff to Daanbantayan for distribution-related orientation. "This is a big help for the people."
Also on Saturday, Habitat distributed 250 shelter repair kits in Guiuan, where Typhoon Haiyan first made landfall. Saturday's distribution was part of a multi-day effort to deliver 1,000 kits to the devastated community.
Typhoon Haiyan damaged or destroyed more than a million homes in the Philippines. Habitat Philippines has already distributed 5,000 emergency shelter kits and plans to distribute 30,000 shelter repair kits and 50,000 cleanup kits. Based on funding availability, the longer-term response will follow Habitat's model of assisting affected communities with housing solutions ranging from transitional shelter interventions to permanent home reconstruction. Donations can be made at https://www.habitat.org/cd/giving/one/donate.aspx?link=500.
Since 1988, Habitat for Humanity Philippines has played an active role in working with families to build decent, durable and affordable housing. Through a network of project offices in rural and urban areas, Habitat for Humanity Philippines has built and repaired tens of thousands of homes. Habitat has also assisted more than 5,000 families displaced by typhoons, fires and landslides.

NFL: Palmer, Arians team up in Arizona
GLENDALE, Ariz. — Arizona Cardinals coach Bruce Arians has worked with some pretty good quarterbacks in his coaching career — Peyton Manning, Ben Roethlisberger, Andrew Luck.
Now, with Arians at age 60 in his first full season as an NFL head coach, his quarterback is 33-year-old Carson Palmer.
"Like I told him," Arians said on Saturday, Day 2 of the Cardinals' training camp, "this is a cowboy movie with two old guys, this is our last rodeo in the desert."
Palmer has arrived highly motivated. At this stage of his career, he's not interested in a long rebuilding project. It's about winning now, he said. No matter what it will have to come in the NFC West, arguably the toughest division in the league.
While there is much work to do, he said, he senses the same sentiment among his teammates.
"The one good thing you look at is that guys are flying around, guys are excited to be out there, guys are excited to get going," Palmer said. "There's not the attitude of 'Let's get through camp,' there's an attitude of 'Let's get better.'"
Palmer is entering his 13th NFL season, his 6-foot-5, 235-pound frame battered in his years with the Cincinnati Bengals and Oakland Raiders. The Cardinals, in dire need of a quarterback after a disastrous 2012 season, sent only a sixth-round draft pick to Oakland to get Palmer, then signed him to a two-year, $16 million contract.
Last year, Palmer had the third 4,000-yard passing season of his career, but the Raiders were usually trying to come from behind, limping to a 4-12 record. It was clear Palmer's two-year stay there was over. Arizona loomed as probably the final destination in a career with big numbers not a lot of success in terms of wins and losses. In 122 career starts, Palmer is 54-68.
In yet another training camp, Palmer said it's back to basics for him.
"Early stages one of the things I'm always focused on is mechanics and footwork," he said. "That's something you can't get enough work on. You can't get coached enough on it. You can't get enough reps. It's something I'm consistently looking at."
He's also keeping up his work on the playbook, even though he's been studying it all offseason, through a series of formal and informal workouts.
He wants to "feel better about the play as it's coming into my head and I'm going through my reads and going through my decisions before I make the call in the huddle,'" Palmer said. "And a whole bunch of other things. There's a ton of work to do by everybody in that locker room."
Timing with the receivers is less of a problem. The quarterbacks and their targets had an informal workout last month just to stay sharp. Palmer throwing to Larry Fitzgerald, Andre Roberts and Michael Floyd and others.
"There really wasn't a big lapse in timing where we have to get back on the same page," Palmer said. "I think that's one really good thing about getting together in July is you keep that rhythm and you keep improving it."
There is always a bit of dread for veterans going into camp. Palmer said he feels that less so this year than in any other. Such is the rejuvenating nature of a fresh start.
"We need to keep the attitude we have right now in week two, week three, week four," Palmer said, "because we have an attitude now where we're just trying to get better."
After a severe knee injury and the inevitable consequences of age, Palmer is not a mobile quarterback. Keeping him upright will be the main task on an offensive line still in the making.
There is competition at both tackles and the projected starter at left guard, first-round draft pick Jonathan Cooper, is absent in a contract dispute.
As Palmer noted, there's always optimism at this point.
"It's a great feeling in the locker room," he said. "It's only Day One."
