A wonderful spiced and fruited cake which heralds the advent of Spring, simnel cake has a fascinating cultural heritage with roots that stretch back to the Romans and Athenians. In Britain, known as the Shrewsbury Simnel, it is simply made using white flour, fragrant spices and is generously studded with dried fruits and pungent peel.
Like a Christmas cake, it is covered with pale sweet almond paste. The decoration is plain – twelve little balls of smooth paste. A specially baked simnel cake is a wonderful gift to take to your mother for Matronalia, Mother's Day, or Mothering Sunday Tea Time. Decorate it with crystalised flowers and tie some yellow ribbon around the side.
For the almond paste:
- 400 g icing sugar, sifted
- 250 g ground almonds
- 1 large egg yolk, beaten lightly
- 3-4 tablespoons orange juice
- 5 drops almond essence
For the cake :
- 250 g plain flour
- 1 pinch salt
- 1 teaspoon nutmeg
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 280 g currants
- 250 g sultanas
- 110 g mixed peel
- 160 g butter
- 160 g caster sugar
- 3 large eggs
- 200 ml milk, to mix
You will also need:
- a sifter,
- nest of bowls,
- food processor or electric beater,
- spatula,
- wooden spoon,
- 24 cm round cake tin,
- baking paper,
- brown paper and twine,
- rolling pin,
- thin metal skewer.
To make your own almond paste you will need:
- a food processor fitted with a steel blade.
- Don't be tempted to use store-bought almond paste because it contains lots of sugar and few almonds, it will turn to liquid under the grill.
Place icing sugar and almonds in food processor bowl. Process, slowly dripping in egg yolk, orange juice and almond essence. The mixture should form a pliable paste. Set aside a small portion for balls with which to decorate the cake. Roll out the remaining paste into 2 circles which are the approximate size of the tin. Set aside.
Preheat oven to 160°C/320°F.
Use a sturdy non-stick cake tub or line the buttered base with baking paper. As the baking period is long (1-1 1/2 hours), prevent the cake drying out by wrapping a double thickness of brown paper around the pan and securing it with twine.
Sift flour, salt and spices together, then stir in fruit and peel. Cream butter and sugar thoroughly until light and creamy then beat in eggs one at a time, until the mixture is fluffy. (Reserve a drop of egg yolk for brushing over top layer of almond paste.). Stir flour and fruit into creamed mixture (you may need to add a little milk to give the mixture a dropping consistency).
Place half the mixture into a greased and lined cake tin. Place one pre-rolled round of almond paste over the top. Cover with remaining cake mixture. Before baking the cake, give the pan of mixture a sharp tap on to a firm surface. This settles the mixture and prevents holes from forming in the cake.
Bake in the center of the oven for 1-1 1/4 hours or until a thin metal skewer inserted in the center of the cake comes out without a trace of stickiness. Level the cake by placing a weighted plate on top of the cooked cake while it is still hot.
Turn out cake on to a wire rack after leaving it to settle in the cake tin for between 10 and 15 minutes. Peel off paper and leave to cool completely.
Cover the top of the cake with a second round of almond paste. Roll 12 small balls of paste and place evenly around the top of the cake. Brush the top with a little beaten egg and very lightly brown under the grill until the almond paste turns light golden brown. Remove and leave to cool.
Note from someone who tried this recipe:
I did give the pan it's tap to get rid of air bubbles but almost had a disaster when I went to take everything off so that I could set this on a cake rack to cool.. the almond paste in the middle was still liquid and was leaking down the sides of the cake at a great rate, so I quickly shoved it as neatly as I could back into the springform and let it cool completely before loosening it again. At least my baking paper helped stem the flow before I lost it all. Some of my twelve little balls slipped off while I had this in the oven the second time… so I'd advise not to put them too near to the edge of the cake.
In ancient Roman religion, the Matronalia (or Matronales Feriae) was a festival celebrating Juno Lucina, the goddess of childbirth ("Juno who brings children into the light"), and of motherhood (mater is "mother" in Latin) and women in general. In the original Roman calendar traditionally thought to have been established by Romulus, it was the first day of the year. As the first day of March (Martius), the month of Mars, it was also the Feriae Martis.
The date of the festival was associated with the dedication of a temple to Juno Lucina on the Esquiline Hill circa 268 BCE, and possibly also a commemoration of the peace between the Romans and the Sabines. On the day, women would participate in rituals at the temple, although the details have not been preserved other than the observation that they wore their hair loose (when Roman decorum otherwise required them to wear it up), and were not allowed to wear belts or to knot their clothing in any place.
At home, women received gifts from their husbands and daughters, and Roman husbands were expected to offer prayers for their wives. Women were also expected to prepare a meal for the household slaves (who were given the day off work), as Roman men did at the Saturnalia.
Patti Wigington at Paganwiccan.about.com wrote this nice little description about Matronalia.
This annual "festival of women" was held in honor of Juno Luciana, a goddess who watched over married women and those in childbirth. This aspect of Juno was associated with childbirth. The name lucina was thought to have come from the Latin word lux (light); thus, when a child was born it was said to have been "brought to light".
In this aspect the goddess was a lunar deity, often paired with Diana and depicted as holding a torch. In the worship of Juno Lucina, women untied knots and unplaited their hair – sympathetic magic to prevent entanglements in the delivery of babies. She was in charge of newborn infants, and a woman in labor might make offerings to her so that she would have a safe delivery of a healthy child.
Women and girls prayed to her and brought offerings for prosperity in marriage. Gifts were exchanged, people feasted on similla, cakes decorated it with 12 balls of marzipan around the edges. and everyone treated the ladies exceptionally well on this day. Cakes with a similar name, simnel cakes, are associated with Mothering Sunday in England from which Mothers' Day is derived.
Children of all ages were expected to pay a formal visit to their mothers and to bring a Simnel cake as a gift. In return, the mothers gave their children a special blessing. This custom was so well-established that masters were required to give servants enough time off to visit out-of-town mothers – provided the trip did not exceed 5 days!
Juno was the Roman Mother Goddess, known to the Greeks as Hera, and her original name to the Romans was Junonius. Juno is a counterpart of Janus and the divine watcher over the female sex, so this month is considered the best time to marry. As Juno Moneta, guardian of wealth and money, she had a temple on the Capitoline hill in Rome where the empire's coins were minted.
Among Juno's attributes, she is queen of heaven, approximating Frigg in the Northern Tradition, and Mary in the Christian. She is ruler of the high point of year, when there is maximum light and minimum darkness (the northern Summer Solstice).
Later on, Matronalia evolved into Mother's Day in Europe, and was shifted to the fourth Sunday of Lent. During the Middle Ages, those who had moved away from home would return on this day to their "mother" church, visiting their families who still remained in the village. Servants were allowed to pick flowers from their masters' gardens, and given the day off to return home; hence, the custom of bringing one's mother some flowers on Mother's Day.
In the United States, Mother's Day actually falls in May, and is held in honor of humanitarian work carried out by women during the Civil War.
"You're right to come, Marcher; your days demand their place
and the month that bears your stamp is here."
March (Martius), the first month of the lunar calendar, was named after Mars and the entire month was dedicated to Him. The festivals reflected a purification and regeneration of the arms and fields, marking a time when farmers had to think of cultivating and protecting their lands. The efficacy of Mars' divine aid was much needed in preparation for the seasonal crop growth and upcoming military campaigns, as wars often began or were renewed in the spring.
March 1st was the lunar calendar's New Year's Day, and may have also been Mars' birthday. The festival of Quinquatrus (named for its length of five consecutive days) commenced on 19 March when the ancilia of the Salii and the weapons of the whole army were purified.
On 23 March, the Romans venerated Mars during the Tubilustrium, a cleansing ceremony for the trumpets used in sacred rites and the instruments of the entire army. A subsequent purification rite was performed on 19 October during the Armilustrium, and the Salii, commemorating the return of the legions in the fall, made their final procession through the streets of Rome. It signified the end of the military campaign season when arma (arms) and ancilia were purified and laid to rest for the winter.
How do we relate to Mars this month?
With Mars, there is no contemplation before action. The drive associated with Mars differs from that of the Sun in that it is self-assertion rather than assertion of the will; it is raw energy rather than creative energy.
Mars is still the essence of the god from antiquity. He is still the captivating aggressor, the rouser, and the protagonist of destiny; breathtakingly candid in His purpose and deliberate in His bounty. Mars personifies a vigorous energy that carries with it its own reproductive weight, immersed in singular ambition, and seldom outdone. He is the quintessential model of male sexuality; the catalyst for creation Who leaves little doubt that our perpetuation is imminent and our survival inevitable. Yet His artful passion is lucid; a flowing expression steeped in honorific intent and delivered with remarkably unbiased conveyance.
The expression of our basic needs remains the one true constant among all living beings. When we peel back the layers of aspirations and ideals, we reach the crux of the human race with uncanny fidelity; the instinctual drives that have served us so well. It is here, at this center that we find Mars, ceaselessly reminding us that no matter how far we venture from this place, the road back is always nearer than we realize.
How do we honor Mars this month?
Mars represents the instinctive nature still evident in all species: that of survival and protection. In antiquity, Mars' reigning aspects were interwoven into a society that understood a definable application of pursuit and preservation. The Romans recognized the necessity of this sequence as the occurring truth behind any deliberate progress. These enduring principles are at the very heart of Perpituitas; qualities attributed to our role as the caretakers of our posterity.
In His warrior aspect we associate Mars with iron, but an iron will is of the same caliber. Protection has always been our gift to those we love, and a duty to ourselves. Though we no longer spend our days in the fields, the fruits of our labors still determine the quality of our life.
Pray to Mars when you need to shift into another gear, to bring your purpose from wishful pondering to fruition and culmination. Look to Mars when your spirit needs reawakening and you find yourself lost in the cycle of delay, needing to summon up the courage to act. When the mundane begins to chisel your determination into quiet resignation, let Mars hear your call to arms. His still powerful voice speaks volumes to all who listen. Mars continues to provoke and ignite while craftily providing us with His earthly wisdom; those universal gifts of our own nature which allow us to fully embrace our life's experience and remain secure in our duration.

Saint David's Day is the feast day of Saint David, the patron saint of Wales, and falls on 1 March each year. The date of 1 March was chosen in remembrance of the death of Saint David on that day in 589, and has been celebrated by followers since then. The date was declared a national day of celebration within Wales in the 18th century.
The 17th century diarist Samuel Pepys noted how Welsh celebrations in London for St David's day would spark wider counter-celebrations among their English neighbors: life-sized effigies of Welshmen were symbolically lynched, and by the 18th century the custom had arisen of confectioners producing 'Taffies' – gingerbread figures baked in the shape of a Welshman riding a goat – on St David's Day.
In 2003 in the United States, St. David's Day was recognized officially as the national day of the Welsh, and on 1 March the Empire State Building was floodlit in the national colors, red, green and white. It is invariably celebrated by Welsh societies throughout the world with dinners, parties, recitals and concerts.
To celebrate this day, people wear a symbol of either a leek, or daffodil. The leek arises from an occasion when a troop of Welsh were able to distinguish each other from a troop of English enemy dressed in similar fashion by wearing leeks. An alternative emblem developed in recent years is the daffodil.

I found this account of Mother March in an old book about Bulgaria, published in 1877. I love the way they used to celebrate the month of March. It occurs to me that it might be fun and informative to watch the weather this month and assign certain days to certain people and see what happens.
The month of March, which falls in the Spring equinox is called by the Bulgarians, Baba Mart, Old Mother March, and is the only female month of the year, the others being considered as masculine. March in Bulgaria is like April in England, inconstant and capricious, alternating between storms and sunshine; and it is here specially dedicated to the fair sex, who during its continuance enjoy complete idleness, doing no work, and asserting a sort of temporary superiority over their husbands, which sometimes even goes to the length of administering a thrashing, without fear of reprisal.
In order not to displease Baba Mart, the women do not even smear the floors of their houses with clay (a work which is usually performed every week), wash, weave, or spin; for if they were to do so Baba Mart would give no rain during the year, and lightning would infallibly strike the house in which she had been thus insulted.
There are certain clever old women who, knowing where Baba Mart resides, pay her a visit, and from her information assign to each of the married women a day of the month on which the weather will be according to the character of the lady whose day it is; thus, if Mrs. Dimitri gets the 1st of March, it will be fine, with perhaps a warm and gentle shower or two, for she is an amiable and soft-hearted woman, a little give to shedding unnecessary tears upon any pretext. Mrs. Tanaz is a loud-voiced shrew, so her day will be made up of wind, black clouds, snow, and heavy rain. "Don't go out shooting tomorrow, Chelibi, for it is the day of Kodja Keraz's wife, and she has such an awful temper that the weather is sure to be horrible."
When a woman is assigned a day for the first time, her character is judged by the state of the weather; fortunately this system is not extended to young ladies on their promotion, or many a match might be broken off by an inopportune storm in the month of March.

Dead bodies and secrets
Steve finally had enough of Becky and went out and got drunk and decided to go to gamble all his money away at the local Casino, until Dev stopped him doing something he'd regret. Back on the street, Dev talked some sense into Steve, who then proceeded to tip the Social Services about Max's living arrangements!

I thought the episode was awful tonight and for the first time in a long time I nearly had to switch over half way. It emcompssed all the terrible stories in one episode, the so tiresome John debacle which has dragged on forever and a day, the trumped up Becky and Maxay borefest, pointless Dev with his head wobbling and Steve gambling away money that he does have, why doent you pay Lloyd bank first instead of wallowing in it constanly MacGurn?. Interesting to see how the aunties are gonna fit in to the two up two down the Alahans now live in and whether its even mentioned they have moved,. Bring back Uncle Umed Frosty says!

I suppose the Aunties could stay in Curly's loft! I don't think they're there for good, just another visit. I'm sure they'll have something to say about the reduced circumstances, though.

The figure depicts a model for the distribution of ancestral chromosome segments in the human, zebrafish, medaka and Tetraodon genomes. Thirteen reconstructed ancestral chromosomes are represented by the coloured bars, and the genomic regions originating in the ancestral chromosomes (a–m) have the same colour coding. Major rearrangements are represented by arrows and lineage-specific small-scale translocations by dotted arrows. A dashed box in the zebrafish genome indicates that most parts of the corresponding ancestral chromosome were lost by extensive rearrangements. Individual ancestral chromosomes are labelled a–m, which corresponds to the evolutionary scenarios in Supplementary Information.

Spent a good part of the weekend reading the third and final volume of the Collected Letters of Robert E. Howard. I had a lot of mixed emotions as I read through this volume. It's the one that contains the most information about Conan. The years 1933-1936 was when Howard was working hard on the tales of the burly Cimmerian. All the quotes I've read in various Conan related books and articles over the years come from the letters in this time frame. It was interesting to see them in their proper context.
However it's also the volume that contains Howard's last letters. The book is broken up by years, so as I reached 1936 I knew that Howard was fast approaching the end of his life. The tone of his letters doesn't really change though there is more mention of his mother's declining health. Much has been made about the motives for Howard's suicide, but I won't speculate on that here. I once read that suicide occurs when someone's pain exceeds their capacity to cope, and I think that's true.
There was one strange little moment as I was reading through Howard's letters for June of 1935. Howard liked to travel around as much as he could and he always kept up his correspondences from wherever he was. I'm reading along and suddenly there are two letters mailed from Santa Fe New Mexico. I immediately emailed Laura to tell her that Howard had visited her hometown.
A few pages later, in a letter to H.P. Lovecraft, there is a detailed account of Howard's visit to Santa Fe. He was only there for two days, and he talks mostly about the crowds of tourists and the mountain vistas. However he does mention that he went to the Governor's Palace which had been made into a museum even back in 1935. While I was in Santa Fe in June of this year I also visited that museum. I'm sure it's quite different than it was then but the fact remains that I have walked through the same space as Robert E. Howard. There's a building we've both been in. I find that kind of neat. I've had lunch in Conan Doyle's favorite hotel bar. I've sat at the desk where Charles Dickens wrote David Copperfield. I've held letters written by Mark Twain. I've sat at J.R.R. Tolkien's table in the Eagle and Child pub in Oxford. Now I've crossed paths with REH. I hope to make a trip to Texas in the not too distant future to see my pal Lanny and to visit the Robert E. Howard museum in Cross Plains.
Anyway, I finished up Letters Volume III last night not long before bedtime. No more missives from Two-Gun Bob as Lovecraft called him. However next year there will be two volumes that collect the correspondence between Howard and Lovecraft. I'll be able to read both sides of their often long and drawn out arguments and discussions without having to look through half a dozen books. So I'm not quite done with the letters of Robert E. Howard.

Scott Keenan was one of the longest serving Race Directors of any U.S. Marathon. As president of the North Shore Striders, a running club in Duluth, Minnesota, Keenan planned the first Grandma's Marathon in 1977 for a field of 150 runners. Under his direction, the 26.2-mile race has grown into the fourteenth largest in the nation – as of 2013. With the addition of a half marathon and 5K, Grandma's Marathon weekend now draws more than 17,000 thousand runners. In addition to growing the number of participants and events in Grandma's Marathon's portfolio, Scott created a sponsorship program for the event and auxiliary programs that generated over $1.1 million of cash and in-kind products and service annually resulting in $25 million of sponsorship revenue during his tenure with the organization.
After retiring from Grandma's Marathon in 2013, Scott began a new chapter as an independent consultant for races and nonprofits through his company – Scott Keenan Consulting, Inc. In an effort to reach out and help even more businesses thrive, Scott Keenan Consulting has partnered with Race IT, one of the fastest growing online registration and fundraising platforms in endurance sports, to provide multi-day, onsite consulting services to businesses across the globe.

Claudia Hanisch
European Advisor
Working as a volunteer in an orphanage in rural Kenya 20 years ago, Claudia Hanisch from Freiberg, Germany, fell in love with the African continent and developed a passion for travelling. Immerging in different cultures and exploring nature in combination with outdoor sports has since become a style of life. For Claudia, there is no better and more intimate way to get to know a country and its people than by running, cycling, skiing, kayaking, sailing or dog sledging it. She finished more than 300 marathons, ultras, fun runs, triathlons, cycling and skiing races within the last nine years and has been female marathon champion of the German state of Saxony several times. As member of the Freiberg triathlon club, she helps with the organization of running events for runners of all levels, including handicapped persons and refugees.
So when the opportunity to join the running retreat with ultra-running legend Scott Jurek in Bhutan arose, she didn't hesitate to register. It became a trip of a lifetime: Running through the stunning landscapes of the "happiest country on Earth", getting a deep insight into the Buddhist culture and sustainable lifestyle of the Bhutanese people and meeting lots of inspiring and passionate runners from all over the world. In order to spread the word about those enriching experiences among runners from even more countries, Claudia joined the Sister Marathons Peace Initiative.
After earning a master's degree in French and Spanish, political science, science of communication and Latin American studies from universities in Germany and France, Claudia worked as a freelance journalist and French teacher. Whilst working as an interpreter for a humanitarian project in West African Mali, she first came in touch with solar energy technology and developed another passion - for renewable energies. Since 2008, Claudia works as a PR manager for a big German-American solar company and has returned to Africa for solar projects several times.

Good Way to Start a Business – Use Custom Phone Cases
The smartphone is one of the best devices that was created thanks to technology and it is a really important device that people need each day. The smartphone is a really useful device that millions of people use. It is pretty difficult to think about a life without these phones, Apple or Android services are really needed today. Smartphones have become a really huge thing today and it has really changed how people communicate with other people and interact with all of their social media sites. But it doesn't only help you with how to communicate and go by with your daily lives easier, it also has another thing it can do.
The advancement of technology also gave people a lot of opportunities to earn money with their spare time or free time. Smartphones are the best tool that you can use to help you with your business. If you are a person who wants to climb the ladder of success, using the smartphone will be a perfect device to help you with making business. You just have to embrace the thought of how important a smartphone can be to a person, you can create and think about a business that could actually help you build a good start.
You should think about a product that will take care of your phone when it will fall so that it won't break right away because the device is also a tool that you use to communicate with other people easily, right? You have to make sure that your phone will be well protected because if you will be replacing it because it broke, you will have to ask some contacts again and that could be a hassle especially when you lose your business contacts. It will be helpful to satisfy the needs of your clients, if they have any problems, they can always talk to you. In any business clients are always important because they are the people who made your business grow. You can actually link your device to a virtual assistant that will help you go with 24/7 care for your customers and you do not have to have a dedicated team to do that. Using this kind of technique will help you save two important commodities and that will be time and money.
You have to know that customer service is pretty important when you are handling your business, a customer can either make or break your business so be sure that you take care of them and using your device will be a good thing. Constant communication with a client will help you get their trust and that will make them a loyal customer. It is important that you get some loyal clients for business so that you will never lose assets.

Its hard to tell people you have been diagnosed with ADD. It shouldnt feel embarasing... its just a neurochemical deficite, but I feel like there is still a stigma. What most people dont know is that ADD in women tends to look much different than the general societal idea of ADD, e.g. hyperactivity. In fact women with ADD often feel foggy, sluggish, and suffer from hypoactivity.
Once I got diagnosed I started a regiment of aderall, and it saved my life. I was so run down and foggy, needing to take an 3 hour nap right around 2 or 3pm and getting a second wind in the evening. Aderall helped me feel awake and with it, and allowed me to stay awake all day so that I could sleep at night. You can imagine my panic when my P.A. told me she no longer felt comfortable giving me Aderall after episodes of tachycardia and an irregular heart beat.
I will admit I am not wanting to give up my pharmaceutical crutch even though I have suspected for some time that my ADD symptoms are actually symptoms of something else. The severity of my issues increased exponentially after a couple of years of substantial stress. A naturopath suggested that maybe my issue was Adrenal Fatigue...then I came across this list of symptoms
* Morning fatigue. You don't really seem to wake up until 10 a.m., even if you've been awake since 7 a.m.
* Afternoon "low" (feelings of sleepiness or clouded thinking) from 2 to 4 p.m.
* A burst of energy at 6 p.m. when you finally feel better from your afternoon lull
* Sleepiness around 9p.m. to 10 p.m. However, you resist going to sleep
* A "second wind" at 11 p.m. that lasts until about 1 a.m., when you finally do go to sleep
* Cravings for foods high in salt and fats
* Chronic low blood pressure
* Sensitivity to cold and feeling chilled
* Increased PMS or menopausal symptoms
* Mild depression
* Mood swings
* Mental fog
* Memory problems
* Lack of energy and feeling rundown
* A decreased ability to handle stress
* A decreased ability to recover from illness
* Muscular weakness
* Increased food allergies
* Lightheadedness when getting up from a sitting or lying down position
* Decreased sex drive
* Frequent sighing
* Inability to handle foods high in potassium or carbohydrates unless they're combined with fats and protein
* You crave sugar
I can say yes to every one of these symptoms. Now I have to get a plan together to change my lifestyle and find the right supplements to help my body do what it is supposed to do. My first order of business is to let go of the caffeine...I dont want to but I gotta. I will share more of this journey as it evolves.

Slip & fall incident at near retail pharmacy stre , due to a flimsy entry mat posted at center of entry. Causing a bruise on left leg and ripped muscle in the left arm, Day of incident i wasnt hurting much. LOGICAL, by nte time swelling on leg occured causing bruise for some days. I took photos and called HQ of store , they took little info and claimed store mgr would call back. I was called asked brief info and stating witness filed a statement as well. 1 month and no call have been made by them since. I have seekd an attorney he stated that case wouldnt have merit since i didnt see dr at time of incident???? Cani get help PLS... North hollywood CA
It appears that you were seen by a medical doctor (hence the diagnosis of "ripped muscle in the left arm") albeit some time after the incident. The diagnosis need not be made immediately after the incident but with lapse of time intervening you likely have greater difficulty establishing the incident as the cause of your claimed injuries. You can sue in Small Claims Court for up to $10,000 if you cannot settle it without a suit.Ask a similar question
Yes, may still pursue a claim. However, 1+ month post-incident and no treatment. Strongly suggests your injury has resolved. Contact a local and qualified attorney today. Good luck.

delays and gaps in treatment are going to make your case difficult especially without a lawyer. Contact a personal injury lawyer ASAP.
I agree with the other attorneys that responded. I would add that, since you put the store on notice and took pictures of your injuries, then at least you documented the occurrence, and, assuming you can get a doctor to causally relate your injuries to the occurrence, the case may have some value. Best of luck.

Without being injured no personal injury attorney would take the case as that is a necessary element of every injury case. If you didn't seek treatment, you can't be too injured. The attorney you consulted is right.Ask a similar question
Although you can still bring a claim, the fact you have not sought treatment will likely negate your chances of recovery, given that slip and fall cases inherently carry liability issues regarding notice and such like anyway in California. I would not accept such a case based upon what you write.Ask a similar question
You have the right to proceed with an action; however, because your injuries are limited to a bruise and you have never seen a doctor for your injuries, the amount of any recovery against the responsible store owner and/or occupier could easily be exceeded by the costs of pursuing such an action. You need to examine your liability and damages issues further with an attorney. You should talk to another attorney to discuss your case further.
Marc Lazarus
When personal attorneys, at least this one anyway, contemplate what makes for a good case.... seeing a doctor for treatment sooner rather than later is one thing on the list. Another item on the list is an injury beyond just soft tissue swelling. Broken bones, lacerated tendons, obviously displaced discs, etc. Those are things that one can exhibit with a film blown up on the big screen to show in Court. As one can imagine, a plaintiff telling a jury he or she is in pain, is just not as convincing as a picture of two bones that should be one.

You can still seek medical treatment for this injury, and you can find a lawyer on Avvo who will take your case. Find a lawyer with a low contingency fee, less than 30% with no costs deducted, so you get the lion's share of the settlement, not your lawyer.

The delay in care can be an issue on damages. However, self treatment at home is a viable method of treatment. Thereafter, you realize you are not getting better and this must be more serious of an injury then you initially thought and therefor sought out a medical professional. Very plausible, but it does give the defense something to talk about. Consult with other attorneys in your area and you always have small claims as an option if you cannot resolve this matter with the store.Ask a similar question

Piotyr is a major character in the fourth game in the series, Shadows of Darkness, if the Hero protagonist is a Paladin himself. The Paladin encounters the ghost of Piotyr at night in the town of Mordavia (at Erana's staff). As a side quest, he will be able to redeem Piotyr's family name. Others will only hear Piotyr being mentioned as the history of Mordavia unfolds. Piotyr is a Paladin, the former Adventurer's Guildmaster[1], and the grandfather of Mordavia's Burgomeister Dmitri Ivanov.
Piotyr journeyed to Mordavia to aid the Mage Erana in defeating Avoozl. He and an army of soldiers tried to stop the Cult of the Dark One from summoning Avoozl in the Dark One's Cave. Most of the Cult were destroyed by Piotyr as Erana sought to drive the Dark One back to his own dimension. Unfortunately, his army and Erana were lost before the gate between worlds was closed. Piotyr found Erana's Staff and made it back to the town where he collapsed from his wounds.
A young woman, Magda, nursed Piotyr back to health, and they fell in love. Piotyr placed Erana's Staff in the center of town, to stand as Erana's memorial and to protect the town with its magic.
One night, Piotyr had a dream about Erana. He knew that her spirit was trapped between worlds. Only by casting all the rituals to summon Avoozl could Erana be free and the gate between worlds closed forever. One week before he and Magda were to be wed, he learned where one of the rituals was hidden. It was guarded by a powerful Wraith. In the terrible battle with the Wraith, Piotyr was killed.
No one in town knew what happened to Piotyr. Many snide rumors said that Piotyr was just dallying with Magda, and deserted her when he discovered she was pregnant. Magda's family felt she and Piotyr had dishonored them, and threw her out of her home.
Magda raised her son Geoff by herself. Piotyr visited her in her dreams to comfort her, but his ghost wept at what he had put her through by taking on the Wraith alone. Now he guards the town, and watches his grandson Dmitri get old and bitter.
Behind the scenesEdit
Piotyr's last name is not given, it may be "Ivanov". But this is not verified. However a paladin has the chance of redeeming Piotyr's family name implying his last name is Ivanov. However as he never married Magda, she and her son may have kept her own name.
Strangely, most accounts appear to treat Piotyr as Dmitri's grandfather, and he does refer to him as grandfather in most cases. However, when you return the sword, he says that its his 'great-grandfather's sword'. This would seem that there was one extra generation between Geoff and Dmitri. With this in mind certain details such that Dmitri's mother's father (Dmitri's grandfather) only speaking badly of Piotyr, or that Dmitri's father would never speak of or allow Piotyr's name to be be mentioned may have a completely different context. Another possibility is that the sword belonged to a paladin, Pyotyr's grandfather before it was passed onto Pyotr. So that the sword is the 'great-grandfather's's sword as well. This appears to be the explanation that Corey currently uses (although he has suggested it was likely a mistake in the past)[2].

Only the Guildmaster is allowed to make other logbook entries.", "Near the end of the book, Piotyr tells how he led the armies against the Chernovy Cult outside the Dark One's Cave.", "Near the end of the book, Piotyr tells that he was going to seek out the Rituals of the Dark One and destroy them. There are no later entries."

Journey To Space Blu-ray Review and Giveaway – 3 winners
Journey To Space is a fascinating documentary about space travel. The film starts with the Space Shuttle, which is the world's first reusable, piloted space craft. Even more impressive is that the Space Shuttle was powered by a computer less powerful than today's smartphones. The documentary also spent a little time on the International Space Station (ISS), but most of the movie covered our future journey to Mars. In my opinion, Journey To Space is a must-see documentary for everyone. Thanks to Shout! Factory, I'm giving away three Blu-rays on my dad blog. Journey To Space is available now on Blu-ray and 4K. Continue reading for some fun science experiments and to find out how to win the Blu-ray.
Fun at the Evergreen Wings and Waves Waterpark and Aviation and Space Museum
A lot of people think about going to the water park on a hot day, but water parks are also fun on rainy days. At least that has been our experience. We went to Evergreen Wings and Waves Waterpark over the weekend. It was an awesome experience for several reasons. First, it was rainy and in the 50's outside. But inside the water park it was in the balmy 80's. Second, it was a ton fun to go shooting down the fast slides from a Boeing 747 aircraft sitting on the roof of the building. And finally, we also got to check out all the cool airplanes in the Evergreen Aviation and Space Museum right next door.

NetBeans IDE 7 Cookbook
Meantime, I have been sent one chapter in advance, Chapter 7 -EJB Application, which I am permitted to share via the link. You can read and download this chapter for free, too.
First impressions are not good, if this chapter is representative of the quality of the whole book. First, the numerous typos are distracting: average proof-reading would have found most of these so I wonder whether there is enough quality assurance applied, pre-publication. I haven't the patience to list them all. The quality of the writing is also not particularly high, though I'm always prepared to make allowance for non-native English writers/speakers and I believe the author is Brazilian. Not all the clickable links in the PDF have been checked either: the first one I decided to click, at the top of page 160, leads to the 404 page on Oracle's site.
However, my main criticism of this chapter is to do with its content. This is supposed to be a 'cookbook' and in the context of computing books 'cookbook' usually means a compilation of 'recipes' (concise instructions) for solving real-world problems using a specific programming language or tool. Well... I suppose the sample chapter does tell you how to use the EJB functionality in NetBeans 7, so in a very shallow sense I suppose this could be regarded as a 'recipe', but the chapter text does little more than walk you through the IDE wizards. Cookbook recipes are usually focussed on something more substantial. The pasting-in of the source code generated by the NetBeans wizards isn't all that helpful either - if you're running the IDE, you'll have the code in front of you anyway. Lastly, as this is Chapter 7 of a book dedicated to NetBeans and Java EE, why does the text redundantly repeat instructions on downloading NetBeans and ensuring GlassFish is installed?
If you don't know anything about Java EE, this book won't help you much. If you do know EJB / Java EE then you probably won't have much trouble working out how to drive NetBeans to create (e.g.) a stateless bean, so I'm not sure who the target audience is.
But this is just one chapter: I will review the rest of the book when I receive it.

Cloud Storage and Security
Very disappointed to read about the latest DropBox security issue. Disappointed in two quite distinct ways: first because their account of this issue suggests a somewhat careless attitude to both security and regression testing, and second, the fact that the first I heard of this was when I read this Register piece. Not good enough. The world is scrutinizing cloud applications quite closely and I fear DB hasn't been paying attention.
Leaving aside the insecure nature of the DropBox service itself and it's apparently relaxed attitude to regression testing, there is the issue of service management and customer relations. As many others have pointed out, directly informing all users, as soon as reasonably possible, is a pre-requisite for establishing trust. Just compare DB's behaviour with that of LastPass. As soon as LastPass detected a possible breach, they immediately informed their users and took sensible action. Impressive, and reassuring.
I've been a SpiderOak user for a while, but until now I hadn't considered using their Sync feature, as I've been using DB instead. This incident has been just the trigger necessary to make me move my stuff out of DB and into SpiderOak, and I will be trying their Sync service now. By the way, I have no affiliation with SpiderOak whatsoever. I use their service principally for these reasons:
- Zero-knowledge privacy
- Their attitude to engineering
- Their prices. (Better than DB)
Another comparison article can be found here.
Superficially, DropBox is a lovely product but as you start to rely more on cloud storage you begin to think of all the ways your content might be compromised or misused and SpiderOak's robust, credible approach completely trumps any pretty UI.

GMaven Archetype – minor fixes
I became so irritated by the bugs in the GMaven archetype that I decided to do something about it. There is a link somewhere below to a BitBucket project containing my fixed-up version of 1.4. The rest of this piece describes what got me so annoyed and what I did about it.
To see the problems, create a new Maven project using the archetype "GMaven Archetypes :: Basic", the latest version being, as far as I can tell,1.3. The Maven coordinates are:
GroupId: org.codehaus.gmaven.archetypes
ArtifactId: gmaven-archetype-basic
Version: 1.3
You can find it on this page in the mvnrepository site. The three big issues are:
- Project coordinates entered by user are not used in the generated project. The generated project's coordinates are just copies of the archetype's coordinates.
- Generated stub source-files have syntax errors. Once you have generated the project, look at the source files in GroovyTestPackages. e.g. HelperTest.groovy. The package declaration appears after the import statements and the import statements need to qualify the classes fully.
- GMaven depends on a rather old version of Groovy (1.6.9) and the GMaven runtime (1.6-1.3, which I think means v1.3 of the runtime built against Groovy 1.6).
These problems have been picked up by other folk – I eventually discovered that issues have already been raised in Codehaus JIRA for these. See:
- http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/GMAVEN-86
- http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/GMAVEN-81
- http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/GMAVEN-73
This project attempts to fix these, plus updates some dependencies to bring the generated project up to date, notably the Groovy runtime (to 1.7.10) and JUnit (to 4.7). These are small changes, but make the archetype much more convenient to use.
Currently, the fixed version of 1.4-SNAPSHOT is distinguished only by the archetype description – look for "(fixed)" in the description text. If I've made these changes correctly then I'll contribute to the next official release. (Not sure exactly how I submit them for approval).
If you're using NetBeans (if you're not, then I do recommend you give it a try), the first-class Maven support extends to creating new projects from Maven archetypes. Below is how the fixed archetype will appear, once imported into your local repository:
In the next stage of project creation, NetBeans will prompt you for the Maven coordinates for your new artifact, and also for a project name, which is an 'additional property' shown at the bottom of the dialog:
In the fixed archetype, all of these properties are correctly processed. The resulting NetBeans project will carry the name assigned in the additional property and use the coordinates you assign here.
Update: there is another important change to the prototype POM (src\main\filtered-resources\archetype-resources\pom.xml) which I missed in the original posting. In order to use a newer version of Groovy, it's necessary to exclude the older version from the gmaven-runtime dependency in the gmaven-plugin, and include a dependency on the version of Groovy used in the rest of the POM.
The code is available from the gmaven-archetype-basic project in my BitBucket repository. You can download a zip from there or pull from the Mercurial repository:
hg clone https://firstname.lastname@example.com/rsearjeant/gmaven-archetype-basic
I hope this is some help to others. I'm keen to hear whether the small changes I made are fully correct and consistent as I'm still relatively new to Maven. If the changes are OK then I'd be happy to push / checkin to Codehaus.

HAPI v1.1 released
HAPI 1.1 is now out!
This release features a few new features, and a number of bug fixes, including contributions from a number of people around the world.
This release is available on Sourceforge, and thanks to Francis De Brabandere it's available in the Maven Central Repo too, meaning that you no longer need to add the HAPI repo to your pom.xml file if you are a Maven user.
It's really good to see HAPI is such a healthy state, and good to see the release going straight into Maven Central.
Thanks to James and other contributors for making this happen.

JVM Language Futures - Groovy++, Mirah, Gosu ...
The three I've noticed all look promising and merit a bit of investigation. In order of importance (IMO):
- Mirah. From Charles Nutter, who created JRuby, so this one has probably the best pedigree. I don't much like Ruby syntax, but I absolutely agree with the guiding principles.
- Groovy++. I really like Groovy (and Grails). The Groovy++ project goals overlap to a degree with Mirah, mostly in terms of static typing and achieving native Java runtime performance.
- Gosu. This one is interesting because it was created by a company team to meet their particular needs and not primarily to invent a new language.
These three languages have quite different starting points but appear to share broadly similar goals. Essentially, they are trying to obtain as many of the benefits of a dynamic language as possible (leaner code, less ceremony) while at the same time carrying as few of the disadvantages as possible (no types = poor tool support, dynamic method dispatch = relatively slow). That's a difficult sweet-spot to hit.
Although I ranked these three in terms of importance, I actually think Groovy++ may have the best chance of getting into production code first because it's more mature than Mirah and has the great benefit of being an extension to something which already exists and is successful and established. I'd love to see Groovy++ adopted officially and absorbed into the main Groovy roadmap. Being able to add static typing just where you want (and leaving it out where you don't), getting traits into the language and getting better runtime performance are surely strong arguments in favour.

Xubuntu desktop
With Xubuntu 10.10 I'm daring to believe that I might have a stable enough platform to be able to make a bigger commitment to Linux, certainly as a development desktop. I've been running it alongside Windows 7, using the Wubi installer. This is by far the best way to experiment with Linux: you get very close to the experience of a 'proper' installation (I don't think I have been able to detect the virtual disc performance hit) and you don't disturb Windows or the drive partitioning in any way.
I have two reasons for wanting to move on from a Wubi install:
1) Virtual drive size. I went with the default (17GB or so) and eventually this will probably be an issue.
2) You cannot use Remastersys on a Wubi installation. To use this handy utility, you need a real installation. I know this, because I trashed my first Wubi installation when I tried.
Apart from creating a complete backup of your installation, Remastersys can also do something else: generate a new master ISO image of your installed OS, containing all the configuration changes you have made, so you can walk up to another machine and just deploy it. That's worth having, because I don't want to have to go through the process of installing my stuff all over again (and waiting for the upgrades) and I will want to standardise the development desktop we use via a deployment image.
Happily, there is a way to move your Wubi Ubuntu to a separate partition, turning it into a full installation. This thread on the forum provides a really good step-by-step guide, complete with downloadable script. I plan to try this but only after I have made a drive image of my current Windows installation (because if I don't, then I know it will go badly wrong).
So what's left? What are the things I still cannot do on Linux? The final barriers to a complete switch? There aren't many:
- Some digital devices, notably my Sony Walkman, just don't have drivers or companion software. With the Walkman, the problem is Sony's truly dreadful SonicStage software. Much as I hate it, it's the only way to convert and sync stuff to the device. When I last looked, there were a few poor-quality tools which claim to work with the Walkman but when I tried them they messed-up the device's track database and filesystem. Not going that way again.
- My Vodafone USB wireless broadband device. There's a Windows driver for this, but no Linux software, as far as I know.
- VISIO. I do need a decent 2D drawing / diagramming tool. I have tried Dia, but I just don't like it and development appears to be stalled. In the past I have almost ignored OpenOffice Draw (because I have Visio), but I think Draw may be just good enough, if I make a bit of effort with it.
There are a few other minor things, but these are the three I would pick as most irritating. To fix (1), some might suggest I buy a different media player! Maybe, but this is really just an example of a more general issue which only the passing of time will solve: manufacturers and software publishers supporting deployment to non-Microsoft environments. And there's WINE of course: this does solve some problems, but unsurprisingly not everything runs under WINE (SonicStage, for example) and even the things which do run, look pretty awful.
Xubuntu (and I think the plain Ubuntu distro) also appears to have removed another barrier to adoption which I just could not work around before: poor font rendering. When you spend so much time reading, editing and writing on-screen text, fonts (and rendering) really matter. In the past, Linux font rendering was truly dreadful: inconsistent across applications, and never very good in any of them. That seems to be over. Java applications still leave something to be desired, but that's down to Java, not Linux.
Cautious optimism, then.
