Grand Commandery Articles
Spring York Rite Festival Held in Jacksonville
A Spring York Rite Festival was held in Jacksonville on March 23 – 25, 2017. Nine new York Rite Masons were exalted and greeted, in the Chapter and Council, and knighted in the Commandery of Knights Templar.
Pictured first were the new Royal Arch. Companions with M. E. Companion C. Robert Cooper, M. E. Grand High Priest of the Grand Chapter, R.A.M. of Florida, after the R.A.M. Degree on Friday, March 24, 2017.
In the second picture, the new Sir Knights are pictured with the Commandery officers and cast after the Order of the Temple and knighting on Saturday, March 25, 2017.
Masons pay tribute to those buried at historic EvergreenRight Worshipful Kurt Morauer, a freemason, stood wearing his Templar uniform, a black military-like outfit adorned with golden shoulder boards and medallions featuring red crosses across the breast.
Atop his head he wore a white-feathered chapeau, and across his waist lay a gold-striped belt that held a gold-hilted sword, which he unsheathed with a white-gloved hand and held up in front of him as Right Worshipful Frederic Latsko began the Knights Templar Memorial Ceremony.
Morauer's elaborate attire was all part of Masonic Memorial Appreciation Day, which was held Saturday in the historic Evergreen Cemetery in southeast Gainesville.
Our departed knights were taught that the sword, in the hands of a true and courteous knight, was endowed with three excellent qualities: it's hilt, with justice impartial; it's blade, with fortitude undaunted; and it's point, with mercy unrestrained, Morauer said to the crowd.
He could never grasp it without being reminded of the attributes it symbolized.
And to these attributes, with their deep significance, we renew our pledge. And inspired and heartening hope leads up to the comforting belief that they met their trying hour with fortitude undaunted. And walking in the dawn of a new day, have received justice tempered with mercy unrestrained, which is the glorious attribute of the Son of God.
With a focus on York Rite freemasonry, which includes the Knights Templar, this year's Masonic appreciation day featured a recognition of the fraternal order's grand masters and grand high priests who have been buried at Evergreen and a Knights Templar memorial ceremony.
The history of masonry in Gainesville is as old as the city itself, said Grand Commander Henry Adams; Gainesville was founded in 1854 and incorporated in 1869, while the Gainesville Masonic Lodge was founded in 1857.
Between then and now, he said, the lodge has served the community, and he gave the example of when the lodge housed military troops during World War II.
He also pointed out that Evergreen Cemetary's founder James Thomas was one of the founding members of the local Masonic lodge.
So, masonry here in Gainesville has a long history and a long tradition, and its families have been aided in their grief by Evergreen Cemetery, which (is the burial grounds for) many, many of our brothers" , he said during a speech.
Morauer said the lodge is the oldest nonreligious building in Gainesville that is still owned by the original owners and used for its original intent and that masons have had a hand in shaping the area.
If you go back through the history of the whole area (you'll find that) the Chesnut family, the Zetrouer family and the Hailes, which are the old families that established (here) — they had the original plantation(s), they were all masons,
And, over time, the significant business owners, politicians, past presidents of UF (were masons).
The event began with a Knights Templar procession, which had the knights marching toward the lectern from behind while carrying an American flag and banners called beauceants that each symbolized a commandery in North Central Florida.
Once the flag and beauceants were planted, Morauer welcomed those in attendance and explained that the memorial, which was held for its first time last year, is a product of happenstance that resulted from his attending an American Legion Post ceremony where he met Jimmy Brown, the cemetery's historian. Morauer asked how many masons were buried on the grounds, to which Brown replied that the cemetery was actually trying to determine just that and was looking for someone to help them identify Masonic symbols.
It was one of those timing-cosmic things that has just turned out very well, said Morauer.
He then explained that they have discovered that more than 300 masons are buried within the grounds, and spoke of plans to hold such an event annually.
Shortly after, Henry Adams, grand commander, recognized past grand masters and grand high priests who lay buried in the cemetery, which was followed by County Commissioner Lee Pinkoson, who officially proclaimed the day as Masonic Appreciation Day in Alachua County.
Finally, the memorial ceremony was held in tribute to all those masons who lay beneath the soil at Evergreen.
The event was open to the public, which may run counter to what many think of when they think of freemasons.
The reality is that outside of the secretiveness of what we do — and we're not a secret society, although we have secrets in our degree work that we don't let out to the public. But if you've seen the History Channel, you've seen most of them anyway — we do a lot of public work, both locally and nationally, said Morauer. We're known a lot for our charity work.
Morauer explained that to be a mason, one has to simply believe in a supreme being of any denomination and that they are not allowed to talk about religion, politics or have alcohol in their lodges.
Meanwhile, he said, the Knights Templar are the only distinctly Christian part of masonry.
For me, masonry is about doing studies and having a fraternal support network that makes me a better person, which in consequence makes me a better father, a better husband and a better participant in my community, he said. A lot of it really is taking a higher moral ground and a higher ethical ground.

There's no longer consensus in culture, but there's more opinion than ever, and mine is that last year was one of the best in recent memory for music of all sorts. Below is a link to a YouTube playlist of my favorite songs of the year—18 jams that span the gamut of styles, from minimalist hip-hop to frisky garage rock to sci-fi country to Lorde. (Despite existing on YouTube, the songs, not the videos, are the point of this collection, so feel free to let it play and not watch.)
I call this year-in-review mix "The Connector," a title derived from the best song on Arcade Fire's ambitious, bloated Reflektor album. Even as artists delved deeper into micro-genres and niche sounds, music of every stripe further saturated every facet of our lives, an unprecedented immersion that suggests that what we listen to matters less than how closely we listen.
1. Heliocentrics, "Wrecking Ball"
2. Phosphorescent, "Song for Zula"
3. Kurt Vile, "Girl Called Alex"
4. Thee Oh Sees, "No Spell"
5. Daft Punk ft. Panda Bear, "Doin' It Right"
6. Kanye West, "Bound 2"
7. Lorde, "Royals"
8. Arcade Fire, "Reflektor"
9. The Moondoggies, "Stop Signs" (Live on KEXP)
10. The Cave Singers, "Shine"
11. Justin Timberlake, "Strawberry Bubblegum"
12. James Blake feat. Chance the Rapper, "Life Round Here"
13. Mount Kimbie feat. King Krule, "Meter, Pale, Tone"
14. Pusha T feat. Kendrick Lamar, "Nosetalgia"
15. Grand Hallway, "Horses" (scene from the movie Touchy Feely)
16. Sonny & the Sunsets, "Dark Corners" (teaser only; full track not available)
17. Washed Out, "It All Feels Right"
18. The Comettes, "Great Lakes"

This blog is dedicated to Lacocoon Dante, a male Maine Coon classic red tabby, who is truly one-of-a-kind.

This is Dante in the front yard in July 2010.
He's wearing his bright orange shirt with black stripes and 'trim'.
"Fanks fur sayin' dat Mama. I feels very trim wen I'm in it."
Yes Dante, it's quite slimming indeed.
But then, so is his kilt!

Here's Dante in the summer of 2010.
... as well as to the 'eye of the tiger' which Dante wore on his back.
Dante was a beautiful cat but he could also be super cute.
Don't you just want to pick him up and cuddle him?
But one should always be mindful that inside every kitty, there still exists ...
... the heart of a wild cat!

Dante's in the front garden in July 2014.
He and the garden cat have both spotted something of supreme interest.
Why, it's summer, of course!
Nothing could 'bee' more interesting that that.

From July of 2013, here is Dante for all intents and PURRposes.
Yes indeed, when Dante had his mind fixed on something he was always very 'intense'.
His attention never strayed from his PURRpose -- whatever is was at the time.

These are some pictures taken of Dante on the front patio in July 2016. They are, in sum, what I call "Patio Reflections" because Dante seems to be deep in reflection.
Then again, purrhaps he was just rather sleepy!

In these pictures from July 2014, Dante has gone inCATnito in the garden.
He is so integrated, that he has actually become part of it ...
... until you go underneath to get a glimpse into his cloistered world.
Then you can see the true Dante -- a cat who is as beautiful as his surroundings.
He was truly heaven-scent!

Papelbon's ankle OK
Red Sox pitcher Jonathan Papelbon, who was hit by a line drive about an inch outside his left ankle last night, said this morning that the area felt fine.
"It's unbelievable how good it came out," Papelbon said. "I have a bruise the size of a dime. I should probably be able to run tomorrow. The good Lord above must have been watching."
Papelbon saw Dr. Thomas Gill this morning, but the injury wasn't serious enough to warrant an X-ray. Papelbon said he has full motion in the ankle, and that there was no swelling.
He added that the ankle felt a little stiff when he woke up, but said "it's been loosening up more and more. It came out 10 times better than I expected."

Ethnoworld is a record label[1] and music publisher established in 2000 and based in Milan. The core genres of its catalogue are ethnic, folk and world music, but over the years Ethnoworld's releases have spanned from jazz to classical, through contemporary (rock, pop, minimalist) music. Among the main acts signed to the label there are (or were) Celtic Harp Orchestra, The Afterglow, F.B.A., Kal Dos Santos, Alexian Group. Despite having worked also with major record companies (notably with E.M.I., BMG Ricordi, Universal and Warner), the label has failed to reach commercial success and today is mainly active as a music publisher. During 2003 edition of the Samonios Festival (Milan), Ethnoworld has been awarded as "Best Folk Label of the Year". Celtic Harp Orchestra "The Myst", The Afterglow "Decalogue of Modern Life" (both originally released in the UK by London-based short lived sister label "Silent Revolution") and F.B.A. "Till the sky shall fall" can be considered the most successful albums released by Ethnoworld, both for critical reception and worldwide circulation.

New Delhi: Gold prices will continue to show weakening trend this week and is likely to further shed up to Rs600 in the futures market on the back of lower crude oil prices and strengthening US dollar, say analysts.
The prices of the precious metal would hover in the range of Rs12,000-11,100 per 10 gram, Karvy Comtrade's analyst Bhavna Glory said.
"Gold is likely to shed Rs500-600 per 10 gram this week," she pointed out.
According to analysts, if the precious metal breaches the projected lower limit of Rs11,100, the prices could go down up to Rs10,700 level per 10 gram.
Meanwhile, in the international market, the spot prices of the precious metal are likely to trade between $820-770 an ounce.
Further, experts feel that if gold tumbles below the lower level of $770 per ounce, then the metal could be as cheap as $750.
Another dampener for the precious metal could be the Industrial Production figures from the Eurozone, expected to be released this week.
"This week, the Industrial Production Index figures from Europe is expected to be negative, which would have a negative impact for both the Euro and the bullion," Bhavna Glory pointed out.
Moreover, the Advance Retail Sales data from the US, which has been on the decline and figures of US Trade Deficit, could bring down the gold prices further.
Noting that gold would be on the downward trajectory in the coming days, Religare Commodities metals and Energy Research In-charge Somnath Dey said: "The only good thing for gold is the festive season in India, but it amounts to only 5%."

One of the top superfood powder in the market today; I swear by it for my best body I've ever had.
You need to have the right vitamins and minerals on a daily basis to help you feel your best. Getting enough carbohydrates along with vitamins and minerals help fuel your body and keep everything running smooth. It's crucial that you're getting enough vitamins and minerals each day, both from what you eat and supplements. Keep reading to find out how to make that happen.
If you are feeling like you need a bit of a boost you need to increase your vitamin intake. Vitamin C not only aids in fighting off infection, it also gives you additional energy by supplementing what you may be lacking. The main reason we feel less than ideal is that we are deficient in vitamins and minerals.
Vitamin A deficiencies can cause hyperkaratosis, keratomalacia and night-blindness. Forms of vitamin A, include retinol, beta carotene and retinal. This fat soluble vitamin can be found in orange and yellow fruits and vegetables, spinach, fish, liver, soy and milk. Vitamin A supplements can also provide you with the nutrients your body needs.
Most of us try to eat the best we can, but a lot of us can't afford to eat well. Minerals and vitamins are a great way to ensure your body is getting what it needs. They are also budget friendly for the most part.
You have worked hard to lose weight but you seem to have hit a wall with weight loss and burning fat. Try adding different vitamins and minerals to your low fat diet to break on through. Your body has probably consumed the vitamins and minerals stored in the body that aides in promoting weight loss and it simply needs more than you are consuming in your diet to jump start the old engine.
There are millions of people who believe drinking water religiously is the key to overall good health. This is very true except you are also flushing the body of many nutrients, vitamins and minerals, it needs to function properly.

Folic acid prevents birth defects, certain cancers, stroke and heart disease. This B vitamin is added to flour, cold cereal and pasta. Additionally, many leafy vegetables, melons, beans and meats contain folic acid. Folic acid is used to treat Alzheimer's, macular degeneration, RLS, neuropathy, osteoporosis and other signs of aging.
Always tell your doctor if you are taking vitamin or mineral supplements when you are prescribed medication. Some prescribed drugs interact with certain vitamins, which can lessen or increase the effectiveness of the drug. This can have negative consequences on your body if you do not inform your doctor of supplements you are taking beforehand.
As previously mentioned, your body needs vitamins to stay healthy. Nutrition is important to everyone on the planet. Utilize the tips shared in this article to be sure all of your loved ones are receiving the minerals and vitamins they need.

Even Skin Tone Body Lotion so if you are interested in lightening your skin or evening your skin tone naturally and safely use Kojic Acid Skin Cream. You should never pay more than $11.
This can be achieved by using specially formulated cosmetics.Makari skin lightening cream is part of a whole range of skin care products that are widely used by black men and women to improve the colour of the skin and balance out the skin tone. If you are suffering from nivea natural tone lotion dark marks and scars due to the after effects of acne blemishes or any cuts that have caused hyperpigmentation to occur one of the products from Makari could be just right for you.

General contractor named for former Memorial Aud site
The Pike Company, based in Rochester, has been named general contractor to oversee the completion of historically aligned canals, paths and pedestrian bridges being built at the former Memorial Auditorium site.
The company was chosen by Travelers Insurance, the bonding agent for DiPizio Construction, the previous general contractor removed in the spring by Erie Canal Harbor Development Corp.
That decision was upheld in State Supreme Court, but DiPizio has responded by filing three lawsuits against the waterfront agency, individuals and a consultant on the project.
Work is expected to resume at the site before Sept. 30.

You've bought a beautiful vintage typewriter and now you're wondering what accessories you may need. One essential accessory for your typewriter is a nice typewriter pad.
Typewriter Pads
I use a typewriter pad most any time I am using a typewriter. What is a typewriter pad? It's really just a cushioned pad that is placed under a typewriter to help hold the machine in place and to absorb any vibration. My current favorites are these sold by Richard Polt. They are the perfect size for most all my typewriters and have a rubber packing which really helps keep my typewriter in place when I'm typing. Even better, the proceeds go to a good cause. Go buy yourself a couple and see for yourself.
I also own one that I purchased from mytypewriter.com years ago. It is a nice, thick pad of wool felt but it does have a tendency to move around since it doesn't have a rubber backing. It's also a bit pricey compared to other options.
Some people also use carpet squares that you find at your local carpet store. Again, those probably will work best if they have a rubber backing applied to them otherwise you'll find yourself chasing your typewriter across the table.
From time to time, I've also been given vintage typewriter pads and most of those seem to work pretty well too.
Have you found another alternative for typewriter pads? If so, comment below!
Stay tuned for my next post!

Pulsos Latinos
Pulsos Latinos
Films from the frontier of Latin American cinema
Curated by Jay Kuehner
Explore a nueva ola in Latino cinema with us this April, as we mine the open veins of a transcontinental film movement—both native and diasporic (Spanish, Portuguese, and of course English-speaking)—filled with vibrant, insurgent film voices.
An industry boom in production and funding, combined with digital technologies and an invigorated festival circuit (including FIC Valdivia in Chile, BAFICI in Argentina, Morelia FF and FICUNAM in Mexico, to name a few) has transformed a once marginally-exposed cinema region into a contemporary center of film gravity
From lush Amazonia to the arid frontera, from cock-fighting comedy in Costa Rica to slacker drama in Ecuador, from tragedy in the Andes to growing up punk in Jalisco: there's a world waiting to be discovered. Come join us as we explore the new crystal frontier.
See the full film schedule for download as a Word document on this page. [Updated April 7]
Please confirm show dates/times with Northwest Film Forum before release, and email us for access to the Press and Publicity Dropbox, for advance stills and film background/EPKs.

But Timberlake quickly brushed away the straying hand, and continued performing.

Scrap a car for cash in Merseyside, sell your car for scrapping in MerseysideWe can scrap your car legally in Merseyside, free collection and disposal, scrap a car and get cash today!
Merseyside, comprising the boroughs of Liverpool, Knowsley, Wirral, Sefton and St Helens, the county of Merseyside as the name suggests straddles the River Mersey. The county has been the birthplace of many famous names throughout its history, with Liverpool's bustling port at its heart Merseyside was always a cosmopolitan place for both artist and artisan.
From TV legends Cilla Black and Tom Baker, to sporting heroes like Wayne Rooney and Stephen Gerrard, the area has long been a cultural hotbed and no-one typifies this more than its biggest export: The Beatles. To this day a source for much of the area's tourism, The Beatles went from humble beginnings at The Cavern Club to global acclaim in the 60's and many favourite spots for tourists today owe their fame to The Fab Four: the original Cavern was demolished in the 70's but an exact replica was built in 1984 even using some of the bricks from its predecessor and this houses The Beatles museum; Strawberry Fields cemetery also lies within the city.
Historically Merseyside has grown from a rural community to a bustling urban sprawl, and much of this growth is down to the county's docks. The city of Liverpool, Birkenhead and Bootle docks were all massively enriched by the slave-trade in the 18th century and by ship-building until more recent times, as well as being the first step on the road to America in the 19th and early 20th centuries: the ill-fated Titanic was constructed in Liverpool's ship-yards. With Liverpool's forthcoming Capital of Culture status the area has seen large investment recently, which can only add to its draw for tourists; although a county that can boast the biggest band in history, two of the nation's biggest football clubs, the world's largest Anglican cathedral, Tate Liverpool and Wayne Rooney probably needs little help.
How A Car Is ScrappedWe will collect the scrap car from Merseyside or the surrounding area and dispose of it through our nationwide network of 23 fully licensed Authorised Treatment Facility (ATF) Sites who will scrap your car in line with End of Life (ELV) Legislation, and provide you with a Certificate of Destruction which we file online with the DVLA. So you can rest assured your car has been scrapped legally.
For a hassle free fast way to scrap your car in Merseyside please complete the fields in the form to the right and we will provide an instant online scrap car price with the choice to accept and arrange scrapping or decline our scrap car offer.
Should you have any queries, then please contact a member of our team on Freephone: 0800 111 4995 or 01226 770306 to discuss your scrap car collection and what cash payment you will receive, or alternatively email us at: email@example.com and let us know your scrap a car for cash query.
Raw2K ATF sites utilise the advised environmental disposal methods/process as per ELV/ATF Guidelines and legislation.
Raw2K's operations are focused upon lowering our waste and increasing recycling, therefore providing us with a controlled and reduced sustainability impact wherever possible. A scrap car is much greener than an abandoned car and the owner is paid cash for scrapping their car.
Scrap Metal Dealers Act 2013 Important Information
Once you have completed the scrap car form above you can send us your scrap car request by clicking on the 'Get Quote' button, you will be provided with an instant online scrap car price which if you are happy to accept you can then arrange collection of your car for scrapping and the cash payment to you.

"I remember that week we spent in Goa. Everywhere we walked there were piles of plastic bottles. We saw cows trying to eat them, and kids burning them, creating clouds of sulphuric acid smoke. They stood in that smoke. Although we didn't want to use them, by the end of the week we had amassed our own 'guilt-pile' of empty bottles. When we left, we just had to leave them in the room. We knew they would be dumped on one of those piles and be burned."
The Fill2Pure bottle filters for up to 500 refills. That's 500 water bottles saved! It fits into car cup holders, lunch boxes, backpacks and bike racks. It can save you hundreds of dollars in one trip on bottled water costs!

The Educated Alternative
"We are effectively and positively providing the solution to the public's concerns by taking water filtration to a whole new level of sophistication… via technological advancements and unsurpassed performance. The independent lab tests prove beyond a doubt that we have a product line to be trusted." – _ Carl Palmer, President and CEO
Maintenance & Storage
DO NOT… Place the bottle in the freezer. (When water freezes it expands and could damage the bottle and/or filter); DO NOT fill with HOT water, or anything other than WATER; DO NOT run the bottle through the dishwasher. When the filter system will not be used for an extended period, flush chlorinated water through the filter and allow to dry thoroughly with top cap removed. Reassemble and stow.
"The odds are stacked against you when you travel. It's not what you know. It's what you don't know. I know because I spent almost a month in a Nepalese hospital after racing over the Himalayas out of India. That alone was a story… me lying, moaning, in the back of our Kombi as crazy Sikh lorry drivers tried to push us off the road… at 2am in the morning. The hospital wasn't good either. I remember being dumped on a stretcher and being left for 3 hours while they found a bed for me. I remember crawling to the toilet 28 times in one day. I remember wondering if I would ever see home again… I was lucky. My wife sold our old Kombi to some Christian missionaries and we were able to stay there while I recuperated. I'd lost 25 kilos so that took quite some time. How did it happen? Well, we stopped at a roadside stall for breakfast.. and I remember seeing the owner washing our plates in cold water and thinking 'Hmm.. I wonder.." And when it hit… we took one look at the local Indian hospital and we KNEW I'd die if I had to go there. No doctors, people feeding their relatives and camping on the floor… you get the picture. That's why we made the mad dash for Nepal. My wife never recovered. She had some sort of waterborne bug that Australian doctors could not cure. How could they? It didn't have a name! She suffered from wind, bloating and IBS for the rest of her life. Forty years later it is still the thing I remember most from all of my world travels. Are things better now? Well, India has cable TV and fast internet… but the water is still deadly.
Ian Blair Hamilton
Even Europe is worth an investment in a Fill2Pure. When you've spent so much on travelling and travel insurance, a simple decision about drinking water – the number one travel sickness problem in the world – makes total sense. WE filled our Fill2Pure BPA free bottle in amazingly beautiful places, from what appeared to be pristine sources. I remember one place I filled up at – my local host in Umbria told me the whole area was contaminated with very nasty toxic waste! Thank you Fill2Pure!

Why have we chosen for natural water ionisers instead of electric?
For 15 years we've wanted to have a better alternative for the thousands of people forced to pay the high entry price for electric water ionisers. We've watched as many good people lost the chance to access hydrogen saturated water.
Almost 3 years ago we decided it wasn't good enough and embarked on our own development of a natural water filter and hydrogen infusing system. The US made, AlkaWay designed UltraStream is today's answer.
And really.. how could we continue to sell a unit four to six times the price when we KNOW the UltraStream is as good or better?

I'm going to write it exactly like they wrote it, since it's so good, but I want to warn you- you need a HUGE pot. I started in my 7qt crueset thingie, and it laughed at me and overflowed before I got half the ingredients in. I've already frozen more than half (without the pasta, I don't like to freeze pasta, it's weird) and I'm going to have more leftovers than we'll ever be able to eat. So next time, I'll cut the entire recipe by half, and still freeze half of THAT half before I add the pasta.
You. Must. Try. This.
For those of you in the real world, this would be PERFECT when it starts to cool off in the fall, with some nice crusty bread you can pull apart and smother with butter....mmmm. I miss seasons for that reason and that reason alone.
Pasta Fagioli
From Pennies on a Platter via Pinterst
2 tablespoons butter, divided (I'll do my notes in blue. I used a smidge more butter. Like, double. I like butter.)
1 package sweet Italian sausage, casings removed (I used a pound of ground turkey sausage.)
½ large (or 1 medium) onion, finely chopped (I used one large. I like onions too.)
4 cloves garlic, minced (six! I am apparently addicted to overdoing it!)
4 carrots, thinly sliced
4 stalks celery, thinly sliced (I put all the veggies in my processor so they'd be super fine. Read: easier to get into my kids' bellies. They can't dislike what they can't see.)
28 oz. can diced tomatoes
1 can red kidney beans, drained and rinsed
1 can white cannelini beans, drained and rinsed
64 oz. beef broth (I used about 52oz bc my things were 26oz each)
28 oz. can tomato sauce
2 teaspoons dried parsley
1/2 teaspoon dried basil
1 teaspoon salt
4 oz. small dry pasta (I am going to be using a lot more. Like, probably an entire box, for half of this recipe. I have kids, and kids want noodles. And I couldn't find the cute pasta she used in the pic (this IS guam) so I'm just using elbows. BORING.)
I crap you not, Ava just wandered in and said "Man, that smells SO GOOD, when are we EATING!!!" It's good ya'll. It. Is. Good.
In a large stockpot over medium heat, melt 1 tablespoon of the butter. Once melted, add the sausage, crumbling it as it cooks. Using a slotted spoon, remove sausage from pot and discard any grease that remains.
Melt remaining 1 tablespoon of butter in the same pot. Add the onion, garlic, carrot, and celery. Saute over medium heat until the vegetables are soft, about 8 minutes. Carefully add the cooked sausage back into the pot. Add the can of diced tomatoes (do not drain), stir, and simmer for 10 minutes.
Stir in the beans, and add the beef broth and tomato sauce. Stir in all of the seasonings. Turn the heat to high and bring the soup to a boil. Once boiling, turn heat to low, cover, and simmer for at least 30 minutes.
Add the dry pasta and continue to simmer on low for another 30 minutes.
Dammit! After I posted, I added the pasta. The reason they say to only add 4oz is because you ONLY NEED TO ADD FOUR OUNCES. I added half a box (to half the recipe) and it turned it into just a pasta dish. As opposed to a soup. And my elbows were WAY WAY too big, you really do want those little tiny pasta circle thingies. Dang.

Clippers seek 'kill mentality' as playoffs near
Inside a quiet, victorious Clippers locker room at the Talking Stick Resort Arena in Phoenix, the phrase tossed around late Thursday night was "kill mentality."
And the question was whether or not the Clippers have it.
They didn't show it against the depleted Suns. Or in a loss in which they blew an 18-point lead to Sacramento, or in a loss to Dallas in which the Clippers let a winnable game get away, or much at all lately as the regular season edges to its conclusion.
The playoffs are about two weeks away for the Clippers and the thought of Thursday night was whether the team could summon a kill mentality at will.
"No, you've got to have it. You got to have it," Clippers center DeAndre Jordan repeated Thursday night. "Maybe it's something you can learn. I don't believe so."
Jordan then was asked, do the Clippers have that mentality?
"I would hope so. I would hope so," Jordan responded. "If not, it's going to be an early exit."
That would be an early exit from the playoffs.
Jordan said he has a kill mentality. "But as a team, it takes all of us," he added. "But, yeah, I do. But we'll find out. That's for damn sure."
The idea of being able to finish games became a topic when Chris Paul was asked where the Clippers stand with five regular-season games left.
The Clippers haven't quite been killing it on the court these days, going 11-10 since the All-Star break.
"We're still have a ways to go, but we're right on the brink of it," Paul said Thursday night. "I think that's what it's telling us. We're capable of it. We know what to do. We just got to do it."
Even in the games the Clippers have won, they have lost leads.
Maybe, it was suggested to Paul, this team losses its focus at times.
"It can be," Paul said. "You can never get too comfortable. And that's just always having that kill mentality and keeping your foot on the gas. Paying attention to detail, knowing that teams are not going to give up."
In the Clippers' eyes, they still have time to reclaim the mentality they once had earlier this season when they were 14-2.
"Definitely need to capture that," Paul said. "I've got to do a better job of making sure we do that."
Rest coming for Clippers
After playing the Lakers Saturday afternoon in their home game at Staples Center, the Clippers will have three days off before they play again.
They played 18 games in 30 days during the month of March, leaving the Clippers fatigued.
"I'm excited about it. I'm excited about it," Paul said. "First, we've got Saturday. But much needed rest. I'm all for it. I'm going to play when we've got the games."
Up next
When: 12:30 p.m.
Where: Staples Center.
On the air: TV: Prime Ticket; Spectrum SportsNet; Spectrum Deportes; Radio: 570, 1330, 710.
Records: Clippers 46-31; Lakers 21-54.
Records vs. Lakers: Clippers 2-1.
Update: The Clippers won their two games over the Lakers by an average of 20 points per game. The Clippers have defeated the Lakers 17 of their last 19 games, winning those games by an average of 15.7 points per game. The Lakers have lost nine of their last 10 games, 17 of 19.

Angels getting used to the new LED lights at Angel Stadium
It's normal for batters to chit-chat with the opposing team's first baseman after a hit or a walk, but C.J. Cron of the Angels found it peculiar when the same topic kept coming up in conversations with Dodgers players in the first game of the Freeway Series in Angel Stadium on Thursday night.
"When they got to first, all the Dodgers were saying, 'When did you guys switch to cream-colored pants?' " Cron said before Friday night's game. "I'm like, 'We didn't, but we have new lights, and they're trying to figure these things out.' "
The Angels this winter joined a growing list of major league teams to install a new LED lighting system, which is expected to improve visibility, reduce glare and shadows on the field and lower maintenance costs and energy usage.
The Seattle Mariners were the first team to install LED lights in 2015. The Texas Rangers, San Diego Padres, New York Yankees and Houston Astros installed LED lights in 2016, and the Baltimore Orioles did so this season.
The first thing players noticed was that the new lights made their white uniform pants look cream-colored. Mike Trout noticed a theater-like effect from his position in center field.
"It seemed like it was darker in the stands," Trout said. "They're obviously different than last year. It's going to take a few games to get used to them, and they're definitely going to adjust them during these first couple of games and throughout the season. But I like them, for sure."
Cron was one of several players who struggled to adjust to the new lights.
"I just don't think they're locked in yet," the Angels first baseman said. "It could be because it was our first night game in seven months, but it just didn't feel perfect. Something seemed a little off. I don't think there's supposed to be shadows at night.
"I guess they can tinker with them to get them where they need to be. I guess they're going to be different [Friday] night. We'll see if it's any better."
Manager Mike Scioscia said the team is working with stadium officials and lighting engineers to iron out any kinks in the system.
"I'm not sure about the technology," Scioscia said, "but there all kinds of ways to adjust these lights."
Dodgers third baseman Justin Turner said Angels third base coach Ron Roenicke turned to him in the sixth inning to say the lights were new and ask if he had any problems with them.
"I saw the ball fine," Turner said.
Street smart
Reliever Huston Street credited a platelet-rich plasma injection that he received 2 1/2 weeks ago with promoting the healing of an upper back strain that has sidelined him since early March. The veteran right-hander was cleared to begin a throwing program on Tuesday and could return by May.
"As an athlete, you want to know that it's healed, and now I can start working confidently," Street said. "We all play through a lot of stuff, but when you're injured, you can be working in a negative direction. So we got good news [Thursday] that we're working in a positive direction."
Street, who is looking to rebound from an injury-plagued 2016 season in which he went 3-2 with a career-worst 6.45 earned-run average, must progress from flat-ground throwing to bullpen sessions and will need five to seven rehabilitation appearances before returning. He declined to place a target on that return.
"I'm not shooting for anything," Street said. "I made the mistake last year of coming back too early from the oblique [injury]. That was my fault. You're a competitor and you want to pitch. I learned a little bit from that mistake."
Short hops
Lower-back soreness sidelined Andrelton Simmons for the fifth straight game, but the shortstop completed a vigorous pregame workout Friday, and Scioscia said he "anticipates" that Simmons will play Saturday night. … Pitcher Matt Shoemaker, who underwent emergency brain surgery after being struck in the head by a line drive in Seattle last September, has decided to wear a small carbon-fiber piece of equipment, made by Safer Sports Technologies, inside the right side of his cap to help protect his head.

I've had time at my disposal lately, and have been perusing and updating the various websites where I have a presence (mostly photo/social media sites). What I haven't done is updated the blog in well over a month! No bueno! My bad, y'all - sorry! I'm going to fix that this week. I have a few thoughts rolling around in my head, and will touch on those things all in due time. I plan to attack those things in their own separate posts.
For now, a little bit of an update since last I posted...
My LT schedule got busy, and then not, and then busy again... and now... well, not so much.
In February, I was taught a new program for the spring, and a new set of equipment that I'll use indefinitely, regardless of the time of year. Bonus for me, as that will give me the potential for more work as it comes. I got busy schedules for a few weeks with this new spring program, but then had a little over a week off for spring break. After spring break, the schedule got busy again... until I injured myself somehow a little over a week ago. :(
A week ago last Friday, the Boy and I were leaving our local coffee shop. I got out of my chair, and felt a small 'pop' in my right hip. While that pop was only accompanied with a small amount of pain (hardly any to note), the small amount grew and grew as the weekend progressed. By Sunday night, I could barely walk on my own, and getting up and down from chairs and into vehicles presented an intolerable amount of pain - really. I resorted to going to the emergency room. While there, I received the industrial strength doses of pain killers and anti-inflammatory meds. They ran tests - blood, urine, x-ray - all came back normal. ER doc guessed it to be bursitis in that hip, and sent me home with prescriptions and orders to stay on crutches until I saw my orthopedic doctor. I saw my ortho doc on Wednesday afternoon - he said 'no' to bursitis, and instead decided to call it a labial (groin) strain/tear. He gave me a week's worth of a different anti-inflammatory to use, had me ween myself off the crutches as tolerated, and take another week off from work (this week). If these things didn't make my problem better, I would need to return to him for an MRI.
Fortunately, it seems to be working. I'm currently free of crutches. I can move around without pain - the joint is still quite stiff, and I plan to start working on range of motion stretching as tolerated beginning either tomorrow or Wednesday. I have meds through Thursday to finish... and I hope to return to normal working status on Monday next week.
But this leaves me with the week free. I'm working on updating everything website-related since there is an excessive amount of time to do so. I should be caught up by the time I return to work. Then, I'll still only have a few weeks of work left before the spring season at LT ends... and I'll be idle once again.
Until I leave for Alaska!
I fly out of Chicago on May 30th into Anchorage. I'll get in super-late... nearly midnight... so I've reserved a bed at the nearby hostel. On the afternoon of May 31st, I'll hop the bus to Homer and finally meet my host family where I'll be spending the next 5 weeks. The Boy will drive up to pick me up sometime during the first weekend in July, and we'll take a week or so to explore, to visit my host family from last year near Fairbanks, and then take another week to return home. All of this has gotten here a lot quicker that I anticipated... but because I went last year (twice), I feel like I'm better prepared for what lies ahead.
More later! :D

A 100km ultra marathon trail running event along Victoria's Surf Coast.
Enter Now
A 100km ultra marathon trail running event along Victoria's Surf Coast
Kate Smyth doesn't like running. She loves it. From local cross country races as a girl in her home town of Orange, NSW to representing Australia and finishing seventh at the 2006 Commonwealth Games in Melbourne, and two years later running home in 44th at the Beijing Olympics, Kate has tallied up a total of 16 marathons.
Photo: Kate Smyth striding out at the Commonwealth Games, Melbourne, 2006.
During an eight year hiatus from competition Kate's love of running has not wavered, nor has her excitement for events. This September will see Kate return to her competitive zone, when she steps up to take on her first ultra marathon in the Surf Coast Century, Anglesea, Victoria.
She'll be tackling the 100km in a team of two, with her friend and training partner Brianna Bateup.
Marathons: 16 and counting
PB: 2:28:51 in the Nagano Marathon (2008) placing Kate 6th on the Australian all-time list.
Running shoes currently in rotation: 10 pairs
Home: Orange NSW and Sydney
Lives: Jan Juc, Surf Coast, VIC
Born: 1972
If you weren't running, what would you be doing: Being miserable, or doing another sport of course, maybe Skydiving?!
Running dislikes: Smelly running shoes
Funny running stories: My most embarrassing mishap was collapsing in the Melbourne Commonwealth Games from dehydration and heat stroke. The key memory I have from my first experience of representing Australia is waking up in the medical tent surrounded by a whole bunch of people after collapsing at the finishing line, practically naked, packed in ice.
Reactions to running the Surf Coast Century 100km ultramarathon: Most people say "you're crazy", that motivates me even more!
Photo: Kate Smyth enjoying some trailrunning above Royal in the south of France
Q) You've already achieved much in the running world – representing Australia at the Olympics and Commonwealth Games. What is it about long distance running that first got you hooked, and keeps you coming back?
Running just sets me free. I first got a taste for it when I was 8 years old in my first cross country at school but it wasn't until I watched the Sydney Olympics that I was motivated to train properly. Now that I am retired from serious competition, running still remains my passion. It's something I just love to do and running long distances is really enjoyable for me. I love getting outside and onto the trails amongst the bush. It's a form of meditation for me and no matter what the weather or what is going on in my life, it keeps me physically and mentally healthy and balanced!
Q) What would be your all-time favourite running memory? (if you can pick one)
Running in the Nagano Olympic marathon in 2008 in Japan. I ran the race of my lifetime finishing the marathon in 2.28 and qualifying for the Olympics. It was one of those few races where everything came together on the day, it just felt effortless. I met some amazing women at that event including my all-time inspiration who won the gold medal at the Sydney Olympics – (Naoko) Takahashi from Japan and also once world record holder Tegla Loroupe from Kenya. I learnt that underneath we all are just runners living and breathing our passion in life.
Q) Is stepping up to take on the Surf Coast Century 100km ultramarathon with your friend a natural progression in your running journey? How did the idea come about?
I've always wanted to do an ultra, just for the thrill of making it! Doing it in a team makes it even more motivating for me. We were chatting in the gym one day and realized we both had the same idea, and we just agreed to do it together.
Q) How's training been going, and have you tweaked it to account for the new distance and course?
I'm actually training completely differently to what I used to for hard competitive road racing. As I have quite a lot of wear and tear already in my body, I have to respect that. I am trying to build up very slowly and gently. I won't be doing speed work or hard workouts, it's all about just getting time on my legs and getting onto the trails. The main goal is to stay injury free between now and the event and to finish with a smile on my face.
Q) What would you say to someone thinking about giving it a crack?
Go for it. You only live once. I am a rookie too so I can't suggest anything specific but I've learnt some brutal lessons in the past when I have pushed my body too hard. So I would suggest listening to your body is key. Adapt slowly and surely. Train for the distance and time on your legs. How can you expect yourself to run for 5 hours if you haven't even run 2 hours in training? Eat high quality nutrient dense food rather than highly processed breads and pasta rubbish! Drink regularly throughout the event rather than waiting till you are thirsty. Most of all- enjoy it! It is such a unique event and we are so privileged to have the physical capabilities to do it regardless of where we finish or how long it takes.
Q) And finally, what are you least and most looking forward to about taking on the Surf Coast Century?
I just love living and running on the coast. The Surf Coast has the most amazing trails with such stunning scenery. It is a runner's paradise! I am most looking forward to the sense of satisfaction from finishing the event. I am least looking forward to my first massage after the event. That is never pretty!
PHOTO: Training partners and friends Brianna Bateup and Kate Smyth of Jan Juc are in training for their first ultra marathon the Surf Coast Century 100km.
Kate Smyth is racing in the Surf Coast Century 100km event with her friend and training partner Brianna Bateup, a personal trainer at M & B Health & Fitness.
