Home: The Longfellow House & the Emergence of Portland
The Wadsworth-Longfellow house is the oldest building on the Portland peninsula, the first historic site in Maine, a National Historic Landmark, home to three generations of Wadsworth and Longfellow family members -- including the boyhood home of the poet Henry Wadsworth Longfellow. The history of the house and its inhabitants provide a unique view of the growth and changes of Portland -- as well as of the immediate surroundings of the home.
Belfast During the Civil War: The Home Front
Belfast residents responded to the Civil War by enlisting in large numbers, providing relief from the home front to soldiers, defending Maine's shoreline, and closely following the news from soldiers and from various battles.
Young men and women in the 19th century often went away from home -- sometimes for a few months, sometimes for longer periods -- to attend academies, seminaries, or schools run by individuals. While there, they wrote letters home, reporting on boarding arrangements and coursework undertaken, and inquired about the family at home.

Home: The Wadsworth-Longfellow House and Portland
When Peleg Wadsworth built his house in 1785, what is now Congress Street in Portland was on the rural outskirts of the community known as Falmouth. The house passed on to other family members and Portland changed around what remained a family home until 1901, when it became a historic house museum.

New Pope, not overly keen on the current one, too many things have been badly handled and too much dogma when a lighter touch was required. Not entirely his fault but still ultimately he has to be the one responsible for the failures of many.
Last edited by MOD Sam; 16 Feb 2013 at 08:40 PM. Reason: removed bit outside the debate
Any organisation that is hundreds of years old will have a certain amount of historical baggage and a set of accepted ways of doing things. We have a monarchy, whereas younger nations do quite well without any castles at all.I'm not anti-religion or anything. I just hate the structure, power and hypocrisy behind it.
A religion is expected to uphold certain ways of doing things, so any change which seems trivial to a secular world (like women bishops or gay marriage) is a huge issue to accommodate for a religion. They are more adept at resisting change, because in reality the world according to most religions is in moral decay and this must be opposed. You wouldn't expect the world in it's turn to happily accept this viewpoint.
Both sides influence each other, I would suggest that to expect priests to remain unmarried and celibate in an age of the exact opposite is a bit of an anachronism for the church. Yet nothing is likely to change for decades. Although where change is possible (like the use of condoms) it happens regardless of the public message.
Other things also clash with the modern world, we now expect everything to be open and publically justifiable, whereas the church has always been secretive and centralised.
Don't recall the Queen being expected to follow any kind of example, except that of other Queens. Tend to live in big houses, lord it over the proles, own lots of bling. The Pope is supposed to be the Vicar of Christ. Don't know if you remember him, but he was famous for railing against greed and avarice, owned squat, not big on luxury. Hypocritical only applies to one of these. Ratzinger was also head of the inquisition, a protector of paedophiles, a bigot, and a bully. Trouble is, he and his predecessor stuffed the College of Cardinals full of similar bigots. We're going to get another homophobic, misogynistic boot-boy to blight the lives of millions all over the globe. Yay for organised bigotry.
The reasonable man adapts himself to the world; the unreasonable one persists in trying to adapt the world to himself. Therefore all progress depends on the unreasonable man.
What Moog said ^
The monarchy have made changes in the past and are now mainly tourism generators. They don't govern the country and don't give out out-dated views and say that everyone should live with nothing.
"...it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of God."
So when the Pope and all his friends are sitting in his big city with everything they could possibly need, all the money, all the priceless artworks, they're not really on Jesus' good side. They're not spreading true Christianity, they've formed a system that's benefited themselves like men through the ages with religion, making up rules and passing them off as the will of God.
I have no problem with people using religion to help people, or having religion for hope of a sense of well being. Anyone who takes the Pope seriously, however, is going down the wrong path.
The Pope has frequently spoken out on poverty, and what is he supposed to own exactly ?
You really are just chucking in a lot of words without sources.
The needle verse refers to the spiritual poverty of the rich man, not that being rich itself is bad, just that you won't get to heaven without God as wealth means nothing.
I'm pretty sure the Church is very active in helping people, although really it exists mainly to promote the word of God.
As for the next one, I'm a bit disappointed that it is being seen as a nationalistic thing as if this will reflect well on their country if chosen. I will agree with Moog in that there has been a promotion of traditionalists and this will likely influence the decision. It's the same problem that the CofE had, with the ABish trotting out ideas that were then rapidly misunderstood by the general public.
When the Pope started talking about intrinsic moral disorders and other obscure theological issues, then maybe he should have checked which group had the most media support first.
I disagree with the Catholic church on some fairly fundamental theological points, and on some fairly important practical points, but I respect the current Pope, and as far as I can tell, he's a Christian. I hope the new appointee is as good.
What I came across recently, I found very amusing and it means there is hope for me yet (I do not believe in God btw)
Within the C of E synod there is a group (I cannot remember the name and I did google) that do not beleive in God, they believe in living a good life with good morals but do not actually believe in God. I don't know about anyone else but I found this surprising/shocking and also very amusing (possibly because I am a non believer)
I had a lovely visit from two very polite old gentlemen a couple of days ago who wanted to discuss their beliefs with me. They were so nice I felt really mean turning them away. They were Jehovah's witnesses, but they were so nice I found it hard to reconcile the public image of Jehovah's witnesses with two such pleasant men.
I don't object to anyone having any religion or believing anything they want to. I do object to anyone trying to force their beliefs on others or using it as an excuse for violence or oppression. Most of the war and bloodshed throughout the centuries has been in the name of religion. We never seem to be able to get past that, no matter how "educated" or "civilised" we become.
Edit: Since Sam moved it and more in context - I think the Catholic church has a lot to answer for in recent times, not least it's contribution towards the spread of AIDs in Africa.

I personally refuse to give any respect to an organization that continues to persecute and belittle innocent members of the public based on their life choices, for example homosexuals, and who will still to this day refuse to allow females to gain any position of power within their organization. Any other company would be sued in to oblivion, but they are fine as they can cower behind the idea of 'religion'. So I guess I couldn't give two hoots who is currently running it, the previous pope was a bigoted, self preserving Nazi, and I'm sure the next one will be much the same
The more worrying religions are the ones who have the widest influence and breed the most fanatical followers. You could argue over which has had the most detrimental effect on society in the past twenty years, it would be hard to find a "winner" on that score.
Meme - strictly speaking, I'm not sure they've contributed to AIDS, but they've certainly limited attempts to constrain its spread (v. pedantic I know). The worst, although I think it's eased now, was when, during BUsh Jr's term, funds to help prevent AIDS was only available for those which promoted abstinence.

Taking photos of large groups of people — such as at family gatherings, business meetings, conventions, etc — can be very tricky. And, while this article over at Improve Photography has a lot of great advice on how to get better photos of groups, the photos its using literally set my teeth on edge. It's pretty obvious that these are all heavily posed stock photography shots using professional models which is a great way to convince the real, normal people out there that there is something terribly wrong with them when the group photos they're involved in turn out looking like groups of real human beings.
For the most part, I have no real beef with stock photography. We make use of it a lot to showcase examples of certain kinds of photography — nature, wildlife, scientific, etc. And, marketing departments use it all the time which is why it's becoming increasingly obvious when a photo is a "real" photo as opposed to a stock photography photo. So, I'd like to offer some advice to stock photographers out there in hopes of improving the quality of the photos they sell to stock photography sites and decreasing the number of "some VP will love this photo that would absolutely never happen anywhere in the multiverse because real people don't act that way" style photos that tend to pervade such exchanges.
1) Stop with the overblown expressions already — The only way a photo like this would actually exist in nature would be if the two women were looking at a hated rival's computer screen that had, helpfully, shown them every single bit of information they needed to ensure that said rival would have their life, career, marriage, and social life completely destroyed. Or if they were looking at Godzilla, King Kong, and Mothra working together to rebuild Tokyo. Yes, I know, these photos are popular with marketing departments. They're also extremely unpopular with customers.
2) In any group of people, there is going to be someone who looks like crap — If you take fifteen people at random, someone in that collection will have had a poor night's sleep. Or they might have sunburned over the weekend. Their hair won't be perfect. They'll have freckles. Someone will be overweight. So, seriously, stop with the groups where everyone is trim with fresh makeup and in suits. Also: suits. Suits do great on the East Coast. They get you laughed at for being a complete Poindexter on the West Coast. And that business casual yuppie thing needs to stop right this minute. No one dresses like that. Ever.
3) Tokenism is still bigotry — Any photographer or company who uses images with only one black person, only one Asian person, or only one person in "ethnic" dress to try to communicate how diverse they are is a company run by people who are socially inept. So, seriously, stop with the tokenism in stock photography. It's stupid.
4) Never again take a photo of false enthusiasm — This never happens. Never. So stop photographing people doing it. There will never, in the history of the multiverse, be an instance when a bunch of people dressed like they just walked out of JC Penney's will stand around a laptop without a logo on the back looking beyond it with their fists in the air in a victorious manner. The closest you might get is a bunch of sports fans watching a game or something but their expressions won't be so fake and they'll be looking at the screen and not the camera.
5) There is no family that sits in bed with a laptop and someone holding up a credit card — Generally, if someone has a laptop in bed, they're single, in their 20s, and aren't going to have immaculate living spaces. If someone is old enough to have two children and a spouse, they're not going to gather the whole family in bed to do online shopping. Actually, they'll probably rarely consult with the children on a purchase (seriously, are there any parents who involve young children in financial decisions?) that isn't for the children themselves. So, photos like this one should not exist.
Now, with all that said, there are some really great stock photographs out there that involve people and look real, sincere, and communicate a clear message other than "I'm doing this because some idiot above my pay grade thought it was a great idea." If you're ever curious about which category a photo should go in, ask yourself if you could imagine the photo happening without being elaborately staged. If the answer is "no," then that is a stock photo you should stay well away from.

Breathbones: a treat our girl asks for every night
"Our dog, London, a two year old Cavalier King Charles Spaniel, struggled with digestive issues and constant soft stool (or worse) for almost a year before we finally received a diagnosis of Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD) caused by food intolerances/allergies. We home cook for her (a recipe of cod/sweet and white potatoes/fresh veggies). We haven't stopped home cooking for her because she's been stable (no flare ups for +6 months), however, V-Dog Breath Bones are the only "commercial" products or treats that she can have without getting really sick. Plus, they smell absolutely amazing!! We love knowing V-Dog bones are vegan as the majority of our girls issues are with animal proteins. Thank you, V-Dog, for making a high quality vegan product that is good for our fur baby!! It's so difficult to find a vegan product on the market, especially a high quality vegan product, and we'll continue telling all of our friends about V-Dog. Thanks for giving us peace of mind, and for making a treat our girl asks for (and enjoys) every night!!"

Conenor Ltd., Tampere, Finland, has used a new version of its Conex conical-rotor extruder to produce multi-layer flat panels up to 24 in. wide from wood-plastic composite (WPC). In trials, Conenor has extruded a foam core with up to 50% wood and unfoamed skins containing up to 80% wood. Conenor presented this development at the recent Wood-Plastic and Natural Fibers Composites 2006 conference in Baltimore, sponsored by Principia Partners, Jersey City, N.J. The Conex extruder for two-layer WPC sheet uses a nested combination of twin stators with spiral grooves on both sides, separated by rotors with matching whorls of 1-in. holes. The stators' spiral grooves change from deep to shallow, forcing material through the holes in the rotor. The holes cut the material off sharply and pass it to a different channel inside the next stator, producing distributive mixing. Spinning the two rotors in opposite directions produces opposing orientation of the fibers in the two layers, which adds stiffness to the panels, Conenor says. A 500-mm-diam. system reportedly can process up to 880 lb/hr and can use coarse, moisture-laden wood waste without predrying, as well as paper, cardboard, straw, and various olefinic or styrenic resins. Conex extruders are built and sold to Conenor licensees by Maillefer Extrusion Oy in Vantaa, Finland. Conenor: +358 (40) 753 4605/PTDirect: 612FD .

Well, how do you fare compared to the Zeitgeist?
Chat up your fellow wooters and let us know how lame this poll was or what obvious choices we missed.
For example: Was this poll a) STUPID, b) DUMB, c) POINTLESS or d) ALL OF THE ABOVE?
I don't have children, but dinosaurs were always my favorite when I was young. And, to some extent, still are. :P
Ver1 - Dolphin
Ver2 - no idea
Ver3 - Giraffe
Child 1= Turtles
Child 2= Goats
Kid A - Zebra
Kid B - Manatee
Zebra for my little girl.
Dinosaur: My little girl dreams big.
Dinosaur - definitely dinosaur.
My little guy loves alligators and sharks.
Does Pikachu count, and does that make me a terrible parent?
He loved moose when he was little. Now he wants a giant dog
My twins are 2 and 1/2 years old. One loves tigers. The other loves a fictional animal from a northern Wisconsin town (Rhinelander) called a Hodag. She knows it's not real, and she knows it's superior to anything she's seen in a zoo. Interested? See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hodag By the way, I'm from Texas, not Wisconsin. I'd vote for an armadillo, personally.
Bearded Dragon : )
Chickens and roosters. Unless of course the chicken actually tries to touch him.
Zebra. That's the first thing we have to see at the zoo.
Father and son love monkeys!!
Ditto on the dinosaurs. Middle daughter, at 7 years old, decided she's going to be a paleontologist.
My kiddo is all about the monkey...personally I like the Cougar (oh wait, maybe I am the cougar...I get confused)
I'm guessing cat since she tends to torture it more than the dog.
My son loves cows....he went through a bog cow phase around the time he turned 3.
i don't have a kid of my own, but I endorse both monkeys and dinosaurs. I have a nephew, he has a lot of monkey stuff and requires more.
When my son was little (18 years old now) he loved 2 animals. Dinosaurs & wolves. We lived in NC & visited my brother in NYC. We went to the Bronx Zoo & I swear if I'd let him, he would had looked at the wolves & nothing else. All those cool animals & he was fascinated over the dogs. And we've always had a dog. Go figure.
#1 dog
#2 fish
#3 cat
#4 cat
#5 unicorn(so it isn't real, who cares)
#6 dolphin
Before you ask, yes six, and they are all adults now.
Favorite can have a different meaning if you must be in the same room with said animal.

How do I moor in open water?
Maybe what you want is an old truck tire filled with cement solid with a piece of one inch rebar bent in a U with the ends bent at a 90 so it cant pull out and get a crew to help you sink it off a couple of barrels or a barge make sure you have the heavy line attached with a good clevis all heavy stuff and a ball get it right the first time as it will be there to stay. The water cops may hassel you if you don''t get a mooring permit.

How do I moor in open water?
Many thanks to both of you for your replies. They have sparked off further ideas and I''m going to look at how I could adapt them for here. Unfortunately the water at the jetty is too shallow to pull the boat in for unloading and I''ll probably have to use a tender.
Any other suggestions welcome!
How do I moor in open water?
We used to moor our soling between a dock and a mushroom anchor. After attaching hefty-sized block atop the mooring ball, we were able to rig a big loop - like a clothesline- between the dock and the mooring ball. We then tied the boat up to this "clothesline" . You could have lines spliced into it in the right places for your boat. When we wanted to go sailing, we''d uncleat the "clotheline" and pull the boat in. When we were done, we could come in alongside the dock, clean up & unload, and then pull the boat back out. It takes a long line, and you have to be sure there''s no boat traffic that might snare the line between the boat and the dock, but it''s very convenient.
How do I moor in open water?
Sounds like what you are wanting to have is your own mooring. You could put down a mushroom anchor and float a good quility mooring buoy to that and call it home. You will have to make sure that such an instalation is not outside any laws or rules in your area.
|Real Ale
How do I moor in open water?
I have a 30 ft wooden ketch moored to a jetty. At the front it''s secured by the anchor and a chain to another permanent anchor. At the back I have two ropes tying it to the jetty. (Hey, I''m a beginner so I can say "front" and "back" :-)) But I''ve got to move it away from the jetty into open water. How do I moor it? I think I should still use the same arrangement at the front, but what about the back?

The pain was too much...
Went to the vet with Dad yesterday, and I'm doing very good. I even lost a couple of pounds - Mom said I needed to - harumph - I'm not too sure. Anyway, I got a clean bill of health (well, except for a little bit of ick in one of my ears). Anyway, all in all, I'm good.
Well, after the vet and getting poked - Dad and I went to this park - and guess who was there???!! Mom and Scout!! We sure had fun saying hello - Dad said I'd better cool it otherwise folks would think I was 'attacking' Mom - hey -I was just saying hello!! We walked around a little while, there were lots of folks there and even some other critters - like donkeys and sheep. No hot dogs tho - Dad, Scout and I were real disappointed...I don't think Mom cared too much - she's just crazy tho.
Well, the excitement wasn't over. A snake came in our yard and Scout and I had to keep it busy until Mom got Dad and Dad took it out of our yard. That snake was NOT happy - he was slithering all over the place and just being not nice. But, nobody got bit and the snake is ok (I guess, I didn't go looking for him).
Why does it always seem to rain when Mom walks us? The good thing is we get to go see the goats and Mom isn't in a hurry. I get to sniff and make sure that EVERYBODY knows that 'Beau was here'.
But the best part of it is that Mom towels me off when we get home - it feels so nice - it's almost the best part of the walk!!

Dear Abby,
We still miss our big old woolly girl. It does not seem like it has been four years since you left us.
There have been many comings and a couple of goings in the last two years. First, as you know, Lexie joined y'all a couple days after her 13th birthday a year ago last May thanks to cancer. We have been joined by Max, Nadia, Kiska, Kodi, Kane, Georgia, Turbo, Taz, Blue, Merlin, Sasha, Yukon and Isis. Kodi was adopted by a Dogster friend a few weeks after we rescued him. He is living in MD. Missy lost her tail back in December thanks to a tumor which turned out to be cancerous. We had thought it was gone but the cancer showed up again a bout six weeks ago. She is taking Pred which seems to help keep the tumor in check but it won't cure it and there isn't much else that we can do now but keep her comfortable.
We hope you are having a ball with Aileron, AJ, Tasha, Rustie and Lexi while you wait for the rest of us to join you.
We love you.
Dear Abby,
It has been two years since you left us so suddenly that night. It doesn't seem possible that it has been that long, but it has. To say that we miss you would be an understatement.
There have been some comings and goings around here since you left.
As you know, little Tasha, who eerily reminded us so much of you, crossed the Bridge and joined you, Aileron and AJ on the other side last November. She was never a replacement for you but rather just another little girl in need like you were when you joined us.
Rustie crossed in early January. We sometimes wonder if she took the place that she held here as the alpha female of the pack. Knowing her, I suspect she did. You were never one to make waves so I suspect you had no objection.
Lucas joined us a week after Rustie left. He is a very special boy, and I think you would have liked him a lot. Then a couple of weeks after Lucas arrived, Panda joined us. Max (2) joined the pack in early May. I think you would like both of them too although you would have had a hard time keeping up with Max being that he is still only about 7 months old and a bundle of energy. There may be another "little" boy in need joining us in the near future. Time will tell.
Zoe had a tumor on her leg removed in May. It proved to be cancer, but it appears that Dr. Darlene got it all and that Zoe is good to go ..... it never even slowed her down!
We found that Mischka has cataracts in both eyes like Queen did. We hope to be able to get them treated in the future. Everyone else is doing fine . Even Lexie, though considering her age, I suspect she will be the next one to join you. Hopefully not too soon though.
Please know that we still love you, and the rest of our pack on the far side of the Bridge, and hope that y'all will wait patiently for the rest of us to join you in the future.
Love always,
Mom and Dad
Dear Abby,
It is hard to believe that it has been a year since you left us so suddenly. Believe me when I say that you are greatly missed. What I would give to see you out on "patrol" along the edges of the yard.
There has been a few changes around here since you left us last year. First, Tasha came into our lives. It is uncanny how much she looks like you. The same colored "wooly" coat. The way she walks. She is a bit smaller and has brown eyes instead of your blue eyes. I think you would have loved to pal around with her.
Also a couple of months ago Nakita and Mischka joined the pack.
As you know Rustie is still around. We really thought she would have been the first to go. I am sure that she will be joining you, Aileron and AJ sooner rather than later. She is going downhill with her lung problems and it is getting more and more noticable. And the smoke from the two swamp fires drifting in all the time isn't helping her any.
As I said, you are greatly missed, Both your mom and me still have a hard time viewing your Dogster page without tearing up somewhat. But we both know you are waiting at the bridge with Aileron and AJ for us to join you.
Love, Dad

rally car
does anybody know what i need to make my focus zx3 aproved for scca rally i have a skid plate,race cage,mud flaps,what do i need to finish it?
The rules provided above are only for rallycross, a much more sedate form of real rally (often called pro rally or stage rally). Rally rules are available from Rally America and NASA rally sport, the two sanctioning bodies. You'll need a whole lot more than you already have. Have a fat wallet ready.
Rally America rules can be downloaded here:http://www.rally-america.com/rules.php
in PDF or Zip format.
NASA rules can be downloaded here:http://www.nasarallysport.com/rules.php
It sounds like you are already started into getting the vehicle preped. The Focus makes a very nice entry rally platform IMHO and I am having the most fun in a car that I have ever had in my life (and I'm 50 years old.)
Here we are on the way to winning the Berlin Regional at the New England Forest Rally: http://www.rally-america.com/event.N...551&gallery=50
I believe that the "fat" in your wallet can be modified by your passion. Example; I have no passion for Bass Fishing so a nice Bass boat is something for which my wallet will never be fat enough. The passionate Bass fisherman OTOH feels these costs to be necessary, appropriate and justified.
Good luck pursuing your passion(s)!

Mise en Place: Broccoli
By Andrea Chalfin News Dir. On July 2, 2010 · Leave a Comment · In Agriculture/Ranching, Andrea Chalfin, Business, Ellen Mahoney, KRCC News, Mise en Place, Slideshow
Welcome to Mise en Place, a journey of culinary delight where anything can happen. Based on the Colorado Department of Agriculture's list of food by month, KRCC takes a look at farmers, chefs, and fodder, all with a Centennial State bent.
Each month, the state's agriculture department highlights a commodity and provides a recipe using that product. We take it a step further.
[slideshow id=43]
Broccoli is typically harvested in late June and then again in the fall when temperatures tend to be slightly lower. KRCC's Ellen Mahoney visited Isabelle Farm in Boulder County and spoke with Jason Condon who owns the farm with his wife, Natalie. Ellen also met up with Tiffany Cooper who is the CSA director for Isabelle Farm and also a trained chef. Tiffany baked a broccoli frittata in a cast iron skillet in her home kitchen.
Click below for the recipe from Tiffany Cooper for her broccoli frittata, and a recipe from the Department of Agriculture for a broccoli and cheese strata.
KRCC News is soliciting listener recipes for our next Mise en Place. If you have a good recipe featuring cantaloupe, send it to email@example.com
Broccoli and Goat Cheese Frittata
Tiffany Cooper, Isabelle Farm
4 cups broccoli, cut into florets and stalks, small dice
1/4 cup onion, fine dice
1 head green garlic, fine dice
1/2 cup mushrooms, small dice
1/4 cup carrots, small dice
2 cups spinach
8 eggs
2 tablespoons butter
1/3 cup half and half, or 2% milk
1/2 cup herb goat cheese, crumbled
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
Salt and pepper to taste
1. Preheat oven to 350.
2. In a medium saucepan, blanch broccoli for 1-2 minutes, until vibrant green. Shock in ice/cold water. Drain and set aside.
3. In an oven proof skillet (cast iron preferred), saute onions and green garlic in butter until translucent. Add carrots, sauté 5 mins. Add mushrooms, sauté for 10 mins until all soft. Add broccoli and spinach. Toss. Place lid on pan to wilt spinach for a few minutes. Remove from heat.
4. Lightly beat eggs and stir in cream, goat cheese, salt and cayenne pepper. Pour mixture over veggies in pan.
5. Cook for 3-5 minutes on stovetop at medium heat, or until eggs are set on the bottom.
6. Move frittata to the oven. Bake for 30-40 minutes until the eggs are set and the top is starting to brown. Allow to rest before cutting. Cut into wedges and serve with side of green crisp salad.
Recipe from the Colorado Department of Agriculture
Broccoli Cheese Strata
Chef Jason K. Morse, C.E.C., Valley Country Club, Aurora, Colo.
7 slices Sourdough Bread, cubed into 1″ squares
1-1/2 lbs. Ham, diced
2 cups Broccoli, blanched, chilled and chopped
1 clove Garlic, minced
8 Eggs
6 fl. oz. Whole Milk
1/3 bunch Italian Parsley, chopped fine
1 tsp. Black Ground Pepper
1/2 cup Asiago Cheese, shredded
1/2 cup Aged Sharp Cheddar Cheese, shredded
Preheat oven to 375° F. In a large sauté pan, add a small amount of oil and cook the ham then add the minced garlic. Mix the eggs, milk, parsley and black pepper in a large bowl. In a 9×13 casserole pan, spray well with non-stick pan spray and layer bread, cooked ham, broccoli, cheese and then pour the egg mixture on top. Allow the egg mixture to soak into the bread, press into pan to ensure all is coated. Cover with foil and bake for about 40 minutes, uncover and finish until center is fully cooked. The dish will have a nice golden color when done. Top with additional cheese if desired.

GALLOWAY, N.J. -- All seven Ivy League women's golf teams will descend upon the Jersey Shore for the fourth time in the past five seasons, but for the first time the event will take place at the Seaview Golf Resort in Galloway, N.J. From April 27-29, the League will compete for the title on the par-71, 6,011-yard course.
Yale took home the 2011 championship, holding off Harvard to win by four strokes. The Crimson hopes to find the winning touch that gave it back-to-back titles in 2008 and 2009, while Princeton hopes to win its first title since 2005. But the past three years have seen three different teams win the championship, including the first-ever title for Penn in 2010, and the other six teams hope the odds are in their favor. Brown and Dartmouth are looking for their first League Championship in their programs' history.
Six of the 2011 top-11 performers return, including Yale's Seo Hee Moon, last season's Ivy League Player and Rookie of the Year, and Columbia's Michelle Piyapattra, who was the only golfer to shoot under par en route to the 2011 individual championship.
Other returners include Penn sophomore Michelle Lee and Princeton sophomore Kelly Shon, who tied for fifth in 2011. Shon won the Low Country Intercollegiate on March 25-26 to become the first Princeton medalist in a tournament since Susannah Aboff won the Ivy League Championship in 2009.
The final two regular-season tournaments before the Ivy League Championship showcased all seven League teams. Brown, Dartmouth, Penn, Princeton and Yale competed in the Brown Invitational in Providence, R.I., and Columbia, Dartmouth and Harvard faced off in the Lions' ROAR-EE Invitational in Suffern, N.Y.
In the Brown Invitational, the home team placed second with a team score of 314-320--634, followed by Penn in third (320-317--637), Yale in fourth (329-313--642) and Dartmouth in fifth (326-238--654).
The Big Green also competed in the sixth-annual ROAR-EE Invitational, tying for sixth-place with a team score of 638 (316-322). Harvard won the event by carding a 600 (306-294) and the host squad placed second with a 606 (309-297). Columbia's Piyapattra edged Harvard senior Jane Lee by one stroke to win the individual title; the two golfers are expected to compete for the Ivy League championship as well.
The Crimson's success in 2011-12 has a direct correlation to the play of freshman Tiffany Lim, who is ranked third in the League by Golfstat. Dartmouth also has a freshman in the mix for Rookie of the Year, as Jane Lee has paced the team in six of its seven events this season, including the Dartmouth Invitational in which she tied for second. Not to be outdone, Brown freshman Stephanie Hsieh has twice gone to playoffs for the individual title, winning the Richmond Invitational but losing in the Lehigh Invitational.

Twenty-first century nail design goes way beyond the single-coat-and-color philosophy. Nail techs today can create looks that take nails everywhere from sexy to outrageous – the more innovative, the better. Check out some of the most interesting (and out-there) nail art we've seen, and get inspired to become a nail tech and create your own adventurous designs.
Pop open a bottle of bubbly and have a good time with this glittery, rhinestone-loving nail art. These nails would look great on a fun-loving, young (or young at heart) lady heading out for a night on the town.
Nothing says Christmas like nails that say, well, "Merry Christmas." You'll need a steady hand and a tiny brush to create this look, which will wow guests at every Christmas party you hit. And how can you go wrong with the fabulous French manicure base?
We are loving the nod to the immortal Kitty in this whimsical Japanese nail art. From that famous face to the super-cute gumball machine, it's hard to imagine a more purr-fect design. Plus, these nails will win the adoration of little and big girls everywhere.
Hmmm… The design is certainly creative, but the application is a little too homespun for our liking. It could be a good look for a high school kid who wants something fun to distract her during a boring class, but these nails aren't really "dressed" to impress.
Do these nails remind anyone else of Julia Roberts in "Pretty Woman"? Sure, they might give you late '80s / early '90s flashbacks, but retro is way in. Find a coordinating outfit to complete the look.
It's simple but bold, and it will show off your expert nail painting skills. The plain red nails keep the patterned nails from overwhelming the look, but we still can't keep our eyes off it.
Well, this is another way to make a statement with your nails, but we're just not sure it's one you want to make. If you're looking for attention, however, the creepy blood and candy corn painted nails certainly deliver.
The look is easy to create, but classy for just about any occasion. Offsetting the simple yet classic French manicure with a few floral-inspired nails keeps the style beautiful but not overwhelming. And if you're not the type who thinks pink, this design is versatile enough to work in just about any color.
Love it, love it, love it. Soda-can nail art says you don't take yourself too seriously – but you will take the time to do intricate design work and do it well. Our fave: the glittery green Mello Yello.
Who's ready to go under the sea? These gorgeous, underwater-themed nails showcase your spontaneous side and still possess an air of elegance. Love the 3D gems, which make the nails a complete visual treat.
Brides might be looking for a simple French manicure, but why not update the look with trendy 3D nail art flowers to coordinate with the rest of the wedding flowers?
Explore nail tech programs, where you can learn how to create looks like these and more. And feel free to post your latest nail designs here!

4.0 Earthquake in Missouri Shakes 9 States
EAST PRAIRIE, Mo. (AP) - Only minor damage is reported after an earthquake centered in southeast Missouri shook at least nine states.
The U.S. Geological Survey says the magnitude 4.0 earthquake was centered near the town of East Prairie, Mo. Geological Survey geophysicist Amy Vaughan says several people in Missouri, Arkansas, Illinois, Kentucky and Tennessee reported being awakened by the quake that happened at 3:58 a.m. A few residents of North Carolina, Alabama, Indiana and Georgia also felt it.
East Prairie City Administrator Lonnie Thurmond says the shaking lasted about seven seconds. Vaughan says he's heard reports of cracks in sidewalks and walls, some broken windows, and minor household damage such as rattled shelves and things falling from cabinets.

When you check out a person's relation to yourself Geni provides an answer,- a family line.
But in many cases there are more than one blood- or family lines,- How can I ( Or rather GENI ) show this?
Ivar N Utbjør
Shalom Ivar,
at present you can not show multiple lines, although Geni has said this is on their list of things to do. Sometimes, you CAN "cheat" a bit by "helping" the path finder though. If you know of a common relative that you want to trace through, then show that path, and then request the complete path. Because they cache the paths, this sometimes helps.
How do you help the path?
Well by checking the path to an intermediate, you also add that path to the Cache. :-)

Hey there, time traveller!
This article was published 1/6/2014 (1122 days ago), so information in it may no longer be current.
Brandon-born Keaton Gudz earned an exemption to the Canadian junior boys' golf championship after finishing fourth in the CN Junior Links Prairie Championship at the Shilo Country Club on Sunday.
Gudz, a Victoria native who is the grandson of Brandonite Frank Gudz, finished the 54-hole stroke play event with a 5-over 221, six strokes back of Calgary's Andrew Brown, who won the event with a 215. Vancouver's Owen Xiong, Winnipeg's Zach Sackett, Calgary's Michael Martin and Corey Bailey of Shaunavon, Sask., also qualified for the national championship.
Brandon's Austin Dobrescu was the top local. He finished in a tie for 21st with a three-round total of 233 in the event that featured 57 boys golfer from as far away as British Columbia and Quebec. After shooting a 74 on the opening day, Dobrescu struggled on the final two days and posted an 81 and 78. Carberry's Joel Baron finished in a tie for 46th at 248, while Minnedosa's Zane MacDonald posted a 285.
In the girls' event, Calgary's Jaclyn Lee shot a course-record 67 on Saturday and went on to win the event with a 2-under 214 and earn an exemption to the Canadian junior girls' championship. The next closest player to the national development team member was 13 strokes back.
Brandonites Hayley Shanks and Tianna Slate tied for 17th place after taking 358 strokes to finish their three rounds.
Erickson's Bobbi Uhl was disqualified for not disclosing that she used two balls on the 12th hole in her first round. She hit into a spot that was under repair and scored the same with both balls, but didn't inform officials she used two balls.

Many times our patients present to the office with particular life or economic circumstances that either outline or even dictate the treatment plan. Most of what the prudent dentist recommends is the very best treatment option to help defray future costs of remakes of failures due to compromised treatment. However, excellent treatment alternatives exist that have the potential to provide the patient high-quality, aesthetic, and long-lasting treatment without incurring considerable expense.
Our elderly patients are examples of these types of case scenarios. Additionally, in many instances, their particular edentulous situation may not lend itself well to providing a balanced occlusion for their restoration. In particular are those who present with bilateral distal extension mandibular removable partial dentures (RPD) with either selected or fully edentulous maxillas. With the loss of mandibular alveolar support in these cases, we often find that the potential for fracture of any remaining teeth is inevitable.
Much of what we do for our elderly patients sacrifices aesthetics for function. Additionally, we frequently find ourselves reacting to the forces of occlusion and parafunction on their remaining dentition via the extraction of fractured teeth and consequently adding teeth to their existing partial prosthesis. Obviously, with this treatment, the patient not only loses the tooth, but also more importantly risks the loss of additional alveolar support after the extraction. Many times, we have found that fractured teeth leave an intact subosseous root structure that can serve as support for the added-on partial denture tooth. The risk of additional root decay is weighed against the complete removal of the root and subsequent loss of the supporting alveolus.
A frequent occurrence is the fracture of the tooth with a pre-existing crown restoration along with the remaining ferrule, which many times leaves the intact root. The remaining root structure does not always leave the dentist with the option of rebonding or recementing the crown. The very best treatment option in this instance, if there is not enough remaining ferrule, is root canal treatment, possible crown elongation, and re-restoration of the tooth with a new crown. However, these types of invasive treatments may not be feasible or indicated in many elderly patients.
This leaves us with the less desirable option of extraction and adding the tooth to the partial denture over the extraction site. If the remaining root structure has no pulp exposure or has had previous endodontic treatment and the area can be sealed with the concurrent removal of caries, why not leave it? Informed consent is provided for the patient in addition to instructions for home care for the remaining root structure. The addition of the new denture tooth to the pre-existing partial denture is the only remaining possible dilemma. If the fractured crown was custom stained to match the adjacent dentition, the option of utilizing the crown as the "denture tooth" is much more viable than a stock denture tooth. With the increased bond strengths to various surfaces available to us with state-of-the-art adhesives, we now have the ability to add the crown to the partial denture using a "cone" of opaque porcelain over a specially designed metal substructure that can be laser-welded to the pre-existing partial framework.
This article describes a case in which this technique was used.
|Figure 1. Preoperative condition illustrating fractured core and crown on tooth No. 7.
An elderly lady fractured off a beautiful Empress crown to the gingival level (Figure 1). Her removable partial denture was all the posterior occlusal support she had. There was not enough of a ferrule to rebond/recement the fractured tooth/crown, and the patient refused to have endo-dontic treatment, a post and core, and a new crown restor-ation. She additionally needed a full porcelain-to-metal crown under the partial clasp on tooth No. 5.

Because of her economic situation and her medical condition, she was not a candidate for ideal treatment, which would either be elongation, orthodontic extrusion, endodontic treatment, post and core restoration and a new porcelain crown, or implant replacement. The existing Empress crown for tooth No. 7 was well shaded (Figure 2) and matched her adjacent dentition extremely well. After all the options were discussed, it was decided that there was a better chance of having a more aesthetic and possibly equally functional result with the old crown bonded to the partial denture versus a new denture tooth added to the RPD.

After removing a slight amount of caries on the re-maining root, a small drop of composite (Heliomolar, Ivoclar Vivadent) was placed in the conventional manner over the root stump. It was finished and polished using Brassler ET burs and Astropol Polish-ing System (Ivoclar Vivadent). Subsequently, the fractured tooth structure inside the all-porcelain crown was removed, and all remaining biologic material and adhesive material were removed from inside the existing crown. The intaglio of the crown was then sandblasted to condition and improve the bondability (Figure 3). A bite registration of the patient's maximum intercuspation was taken using Blu-Mousse (Parkell). An impression with Provil (Her-aeus Kulzer) was obtained of the upper and lower arches with the existing removable partial dentures in place. The lab was then instructed to process an "undercoping" or a "receptor cone" for the cleaned out crown that was to be subsequently added to the partial denture while seated in the mouth.

After the lab received the model with the partial denture, the bite registration and opposing model, the final impression for the crown for tooth No. 5, and the old Empress crown from tooth No. 7, provisions for the add-on were made on the partial denture to accept the minor connector for the "receptor cone," which was designed by the laboratory (Bill Thomas, CDT, from Smile Science Dental Lab, Cleve-land, Ga, Figure 4). Initially, the lab prepared a small, antirotational notch in the Empress crown from tooth No. 7 to help with the construction of the receptor cone (Figure 3). The new receptor cone was then fabricated from a resin pattern in the lab inside the crown by Chris Mote, CDT, of Smile Science Lab and cast in nickel-free, nonprecious alloy (Figures 5 to 7). The cone and minor con-nector were then laser-welded to the palatal strap major connector of the partial denture using the Laserstar Compact Welder (Laserstar Technol-ogies). The laser welder (Figure 8) has revolutionized the ability to make repairs and add-ons to all types of metal structures in dentistry. The advantage is that there is very little heat developed during the welding process.

The receptor cone was later opaqued using opaque porce-lain (IPS d.SIGN, Ivoclar Vivadent) and sprinkled with porcelain margin powder to improve bondability (Figures 9 to 13). The bond between the crown and the opaqued receptor cone on the RPD appears to be as good or better than one to dentin, particularly on a compromised root stump.

After trying in the partial denture in the mouth to confirm the fit of the receptor cone over the root stump (Figures 14 and 15), the intaglio of the porcelain crown and the receptor cone were then prepared chairside as if we were bonding porcelain to porcelain. This includes 37% phosphoric and then hydrofluoric acid etch on both surfaces, silane application (Por-celain Silane, Microdose Series, Premier Dental Products), and Prime and Bond NT (DENTSPLY Caulk) applied to both surfaces. The partial was inserted in the mouth, and after lubricating the root stump, the crown was luted onto the opaqued cone on the RPD with Variolink II cement (Ivoclar Vivadent, Figure 16). Additionally, the crown under the clasp on tooth No. 5 was inserted in the conventional manner using RelyX Unicem resin cement (3M ESPE). The occlusion required minimal adjustment, and the patient was dismissed. The patient was extremely pleased with the final results, particularly be-cause of the treatment's noninvasive nature and optimum aesthetics (Figures 17 to 20).

As patients present with challenging situations that tax the creative mind of the restorative dentist, common sense mixed with the use of the proper technology preside. If the procedure as described above is properly carried out, the result that can be attained can be as aesthetic, and perhaps as strong, as bonding a porcelain crown onto an existing tooth. Additionally, the ability to match more exactly a porcelain crown versus a stock denture tooth to adjacent dentition is considerably easier with this type of add-on to a pre-existing removable partial denture. Laser welding has provided dentistry with an excellent tool to develop techniques such as the one described. The beam can be adjusted down to approximately 0.2 mm for pinpoint accuracy. Plus, the amount of heat produced during laser welding is negligible, helping to prevent the need either to protect or to replace the nonmetal components of the partial denture.
The procedure described was done with no local anesthetic and was minimally invasive, which is ideal with a patient who cannot, will not, or should not be treated in a more conventional manner. Ideal treatment is not always conventional, as in the case above, however, with proper planning and the correct choice of materials and techniques, one can offer options that were never available to us before now.

Ishmael ben Jose
|Rabbinical Eras
Ishmael ben Jose (Hebrew: רבי ישמעאל ברבי יוסי, read as Rabbi Ishmael beRabbi[Son of Rabbi] Yossi) was a Tanna of the beginning of the 3rd century, son of Jose ben Halafta. Ishmael served as a Roman official together with Elazar ben Simon, and was instrumental in suppressing the hordes of Jewish freebooters that had collected during the war between Severus and Pescennius Niger (193). His activity in this direction was greatly resented by the Jews, who never forgave him for handing over fellow Jews to the Roman authorities for execution (Bava Metzia 84a). In halakic literature he is known by his citations of his father's sayings which he transmitted to Judah I, with whom he read Lamentations and the Psalms (Lam. Rab. ii. 420; Midr. Teh. iii. 1). He had a wide knowledge of the Scriptures, and could write down from memory the whole of the Bible (Yer. Meg. 74d).
Social interactions[edit]
Ishmael b. Jose was not on good terms with the Samaritans. On one occasion, when he was passing through Neopolis on a pilgrimage to Jerusalem, the Samaritans jeeringly invited him to pray on Mount Gerizim instead of on "those ruins [Jerusalem]"; Ishmael retorted that the object of their veneration was the idols hidden there by Jacob (Gen. R. lxxxi.; comp. Gen. xxxv. 4). Sanh. 38b would indicate that he also had occasional passages with Christians.
As a judge, Ishmael was noted for absolute integrity (Mak. 24a). His modest bearing called forth high praise from his master. The treasures of Tyre shall be "for them that dwell before the Lord" (Isa. xxiii. 18) refers, said R. Judah, to Ishmael b. Jose and to others who, like him, consider themselves as of little account, but for whom some day a greater glory waits (Eccl. R. i. 7). The following gives an instance of his timely wit: Compelled to say something agreeable about a very ugly woman, he in vain sought ground for a compliment, until he learned that her name was "Liḥluḥit" (the dirty one). "Ah!" said he, "there is something beautiful about her—her name, which suits her uncommonly well."
His haggadic interpretation of למנצח מזמור (Ps. iii.) may be given as an example of his method of exegesis. He explains it to mean "a psalm to Him who causes man to conquer himself." "Sing a psalm to Him who feels a great joy in being conquered. Come and behold! God's way is not man's way. One who is defeated is depressed, but God rejoices in being conquered, as seen in Psalm cvi. 23, where the joy of the Lord is expressed at the fact that Moses, His chosen one, was victorious in his mediation for Israel" (Pes. 119a; see Rashi ad loc.).

Nike/ Umbro meets Manchester City
I recently did a job with Nike, I was commissioned to do a painting. Nike just acquired a company called Umbro. Nike recently hosted The Manchester City soccer team at their campus to practice in Portland Oregon. My painting was presented to the Manchester City team as a gift to celebrate the new Nike/Umbro and Manchester City working relationship. It was a good project for me in that I did watch a bit of the World Cup, this project was a education in the english soccer league.
