Auction serves up Hilltop history
Credit: Faith Ninivaggi
Memorabilia seekers crowded into what was once a dining room at the iconic Hilltop Steak House in Saugus yesterday, where everything from silverware, stoves, signs and art were auctioned off as the Route 1 landmark became history.
Dick Campana, 83, of Wellesley was sad to see it all go. The retired construction worker frequented the Hilltop in the 1960s when "lobsters went for $3.95 and steaks went for $3.25," he said.
"This is part of history gone. Frank Giuffrida did a wonderful job," Campana said, referring to the restaurant's founder.

Egypt have no room for error if they wish to continue on their path in 2013 Afcon qualification as only a two-goal win margin will do on Saturday against a motivated Fauves side
Zimbori, Anzite, Enza-Yamissi, Keita,
Kago, Lignanzi, Dagoulou, Saoudi
Momi, Kethevoama
El Hadary
Fathi, Hegazi, Fathallah, Moawad
Shawky, Aboutrika, Ghaly
Geddo, Meteb, Salah
Less than a week after their 3-2 win over Guinea in Conakry in 2014 World Cup qualifying, Egypt were shockingly on the opposite end of the same score-line against the Central African Republic at the Borg El Arab stadium in Alexandria.
Even though they did not look their freshest physically, all started relatively well in that match as Mohamed Zidan gave the Pharaohs an early lead only for him and his team-mates to twice allow the Central Africans back into the game and then stunningly concede the winner in the second half.
While the defeat represented only Bob Bradley's second loss during his Egypt tenure, it was a particularly difficult one to swallow as it has put Egypt in the unenviable position of needing to win by at least a two-goal margin in Bangui in order to avoid the unthinkable: A second consecutive elimination from Africa's elite tournament which they had previously dominated for years under the guidance of Hassan Shehata.
On the other hand, Herve Loungoudji will have to find a way to convince his players that playing too conservatively could backfire given that the Pharaohs are poised to throw everything they have at the Fauves on Saturday. His men are not necessarily used to conserving such positive away results and are generally short on experience so this will be a huge test for them in that regard.
Egypt's Ahmed Elmohmady did not make the trip to CAR due to a hamstring injury and Bob Bradley has responded to Mohamed Zidan missing training by calling up Emad Meteb for this match.
While the Pharaohs are considered the giants of Africa with seven continental titles, including an unprecedented three in succession, Les Fauves have never even made it to the final stages of the tournament.
- Egypt have only once before failed to qualify for the Africa Cup of Nations and that was last year when Niger surprisingly finished ahead of them, South Africa, and Sierra Leone.
The Central African Republic have recently had a good run of results at home against Arab sides, most notably their 2-0 win over Algeria and a goalless draw against Morocco in 2012 Africa Cup of Nations qualifying.
Centrafrique's 3-2 win over Egypt in Alexandria represented the first meeting ever between the two teams.
Pharaohs defender Mahmoud Fathallah has told the Egyptian media that although him and his team-mates clearly underestimated CAR in the first leg, he expects a show of character in the second in order to obtain the desired result in Bangui. "The true nature of Egyptian footballers comes to life in difficult conditions and we will fight to get through this phase. I believe we can do it," he said.

Visionaire, winner of the Aug. 23 NetJets King's Bishop Stakes (gr. I), won't be pointed for the Breeders' Cup at Santa Anita Park in October because none of the races offers him the opportunity to do "what he does best," according to a recent article on Team Valor International's Web site.

By Dan Liebman - What was the most interesting thing about the $2.2 million sale topper of the annual Fasig-Tipton Saratoga select yearling sale was not the breeder, consignor, or sire of the colt, but the buyer and underbidder.
Even with a $2.2-million Mr. Greeley colt, the Fasig-Tipton Saratoga select yearling auction experienced downturns.
Yes, there are 3-year-olds west of the Mississippi this year. Which one, or ones, will earn the right to take on the big guns back east will be decided in Saturday's $350,000 Swaps Stakes (gr. II), where Tiago will make his first start in California since winning the Santa Anita Derby (gr. I).

By Barry Irwin - Our sport is not ready for prime-time exposure because it is corrupt at its very core. The essence of racing is handicapping a race and betting on it. If one cannot present a level playing field, what is there to promote?
A few minutes after King of the Roxy broke his maiden in his second start July 2 at Hollywood Park, Barry Irwin was on the phone speaking with his Team Valor partner, Jeff Siegel. Now they have a contender for the Bessemer Trust Breeders' Cup Juvenile (gr. I).

Maple Trees + Spring = Liquid Gold
Elena Gustavson
by Elena Gustavson, RAFFL's Everyday Chef. Maple syrup. Ubiquitous and delightful. Celebrated and loved. The sweet liquid gold of our green mountains. Vermont is well known for its sugar houses that dot our working landscape, belching steam from its vents and smoke from its stacks. Our season is short and completely dependent on the weather - freezing nights, 'warmer than freezing' days - and a sugarmaker can be found in the sugar house for days on end as long as the sap is running.
Maple syrup, like honey, is rich in antioxidants and minerals from the trees it comes from. It is a great substitute in recipes that call for honey or simple syrup and can often be successfully swapped in for cane sugar.
In our house, besides the usual pancakes and waffles, we drizzle maple syrup over bananas slathered with peanut butter or use it to sweeten our tea. It is a delicious on oatmeal, in a smoothie, in a salad dressing and spooned over plain yogurt or even ice cream.
Maple syrup recipes abound, so rather than give you lots of new ones, see below for some great recipes within Everyday Chef as well as a few other exceptional sources.
So the only question now is...golden, amber or dark?

The parents accused of leaving Mississippi with their 2-year-old after their infant was found dead were located late Wednesday in south Georgia, police told The Atlanta Journal-Constitution.
The child, Maliah Harris, was not harmed, a spokeswoman for the Sylvester Police Department said early this morning. Her parents were arrested, but their charges were not immediately released.
Wednesday afternoon, alerts were issued to help find the toddler, who police said could be in extreme danger. The girl's disappearance prompted a nationwide Amber Alert and a Levi's Call in Georgia, where police suspected the family could be heading.
Before being found in Georgia, Maliah was last seen around 5:35 a.m. Wednesday in Caledonia, Miss., and was believed to be with her parents, Donald Boyd Harris and Allison Kaye Studdard, according to police.
Lookouts were issued for Harris, 34, and Studdard, 31, believed to be traveling in a 2002 brown or black Pontiac Aztec with Georgia tag PGR7927. Details about their arrests were not released early this morning.
Maliah's 7-month-old sister was found deceased in the family's home in Caledonia early Wednesday, Investigator Eric Granderson with the Lowndes County Sheriff's Department told WSB Radio. Investigators have not yet determined how the baby died, Granderson said.
Located in Worth County, Sylvester is about 175 miles south of Atlanta. The three were found about 350 miles from their Mississippi home.

Nathan and Madison both have had a wonderful day! We are so thrilled with the progress we have made with Nathan. This is truly a very Merry Christmas! We wish you all a wonderful new year.
Monthly Archives: December 2015
Nathan has been doing such a great job at day treatment that he was discharged today!
We have seen a tremendous improvement in his behaviors at home and he was having great days at the hospital. We are so proud of the hard work he put in to do this so quickly.
The hard part of this all of this is that we still are reminded that he has Batten Disease. What that means is that his brain is ever changing and it will be fighting an uphill battle to try and stay ahead of the regression and degeneration. We will constantly have to be on the watch to adjust medicines as needed and to be mindful that he can't express some things to us the way others might be able to. We will have to watch for signs and that can be very tricky. This is still only 6 months new to us and we learn something new about this disease daily. Let me just say it again, I HATE BATTEN DISEASE.
What I will say, is I am thankful he is home and gets to enjoy his Christmas break at home. He is excited to be able to return to his school in January. We are so blessed that this Christmas we have so much to be thankful for. I will have my family gathered around the tree, and the only present I wanted this year was the presence of everyone. I will miss my Dad terribly like I do everyday, but know he is with us in spirit and nothing would have made him happier than to have his grandchildren have a wonderful day!
Thank you to all for your love and support.
Day 2-4 of day treatment
We have seem some amazing progress with Nathan over the last few days.
One thing we have found is that Nathan has a tremendously hard time with transitions. We believe it due to anxiety of not being able to anticipate what is coming next. The day treatment program is working on some strategies to help with that. Drop off and pick up have gone extremely well, with the exception of one day at pickup.
I took him back in on Thursday to his Pediatrician to check his ear. It was still full of puss and needed another 10 day course of antibiotics. We really think his ear is what set all of this in motion. Hopefully, once it completely heals we will be back on track.
We have made a couple of medication changes that I am sure are contributing to the improved behavior as well.
The plan is for him to return on Monday and we will speak to the Doctors to see what the goal is regarding discharging him. We really want him to enjoy a break from school as well.
Thank you all for everything. We are blown away by the love and support we have received and continue to receive.
The story behind it all
I feel like I need to back up a little in our story in order to bring everyone up to speed with where we are at today. I realize I have forgot some crucial details as to what landed us where we are.
Saturday night, we were able to go out to dinner which we rarely do anymore. Nathan did really well at dinner and was not having any issues. Once we were leaving the restaurant he started talking about Star Wars. As most of you know, Nathan becomes obsessive about certain things and on this particular day, it was his light sabers. He had brought one in the car and wanted to show our guests his toy. He started to become agitated that night after dinner. We went home and put him to bed later than usual around 9:30 pm. He would not go to bed. He just kept talking about his light sabers. He kept getting out of bed and coming into our room in a very agitated state. Each time, we would take him back to his room and he would say "I forgot how to fall asleep" (something he has said before and we think this is a piece of the anxiety that goes along with Batten) or "I don't think I will be able to stay asleep all night". He was up until 3 am that night and at one point even fell down the stairs.
Sunday, he was up very early around 6 am. Not a lot of sleep for him. He was very upset most of the day and talked non stop about Star Wars. Every five minutes he wanted to be a new character and would get upset if you called him the wrong name. It was a very long day filled with lots of screaming. Another problem Nathan has been having is when we took him off a medication recently, he began to hit himself in the forehead. I am not talking lightly tapping his forehead, I am talking slapping himself and hitting himself that he has bruised his head and given himself bloody noses. Pretty concerning behavior, but again, we have lived in a constant state of chaos for six years that we just figured this was a rough patch. This night he went to bed very late and had a hard time staying in bed as well. He also maybe only ate a couple of bites of food all day. Very unusual for Nathan who likes to eat multiple meals throughout the day.
He went to school on Monday and Tuesday and there was nothing to report from the school regarding negative behavior, but when he came home he would just be in a rage. I would not be able to get him to stop hitting himself and screaming. He will scream for hours on end. Again, behavior we have seen, so just thought it was more of the same and it just was really bad right now. Another two nights of poor sleep and very little to eat.
Wednesday we had our regular 6 month follow up with the geneticists who diagnosed Nathan. When we got to the appointment, we knew it was not going to be a good one. Nathan did not want to be there, and he was letting everyone know. The doctor came in and to be honest, I do not remember much of what we talked about medically, because the conversation quickly switched to him suggesting that we take Nathan to the emergency room to be admitted. He said that this behavior was quite concerning to him and the fact that he has been doing this for sometime he thought that Nathan and all of us were at our breaking point and he needed to get help. The first suggestion of admitting Nathan would have meant inpatient in the nueropsych unit. That means taking Nathan and dropping him off and getting to see him for 1 hour at lunch and 1 hour at dinner and that is it. We had to do that three years ago and I swore I would never do that again. That for Jay and me was not an option. He suggested that they may be able to put him in a regular room in the main hospital to be evaluated. He left the room and called the Special Care clinic and talked to the head of the department to see what her thoughts were. Jay and I had about 5 minutes to make a decision. He came back in and said that they were in agreement that Nathan needed to be taken to the main hospital immediately. He said it was urgent, but not emergent. He told me to go home and grab some things to spend the night and get him there. To be honest, I was much more open to the idea than Jay. We both want so badly for him to feel better, but we did not have a lot of time to make the decision and Jay needs more time to think on things than I do. That also gets me in trouble sometimes. 🙂
Jay left for work and I drove Nathan home to get some things for us. I explained to Nathan where I was taking him and he was ok with my response. When we arrived at the Emergency Room, it was quite the ordeal. Nathan likes to feel how tall everyone is. Let's just say the security guard did not appreciate the idea of this as much as Nathan. He plopped down in the middle of the waiting room and started screaming. From that point on, we had an escort everywhere we went. We got into a room and the Doctor came in and discovered that Nathan had a perforated ear drum. I remember him saying two times over two days that his ear hurt but there were no other symptoms to go with it to make us think anything of it. However, this is crucial information as this is the ONLY thing that we can think of that would have changed that would have made him not want to eat or drink anything. We are really hoping that it is that simple. That something so easy as an ear infection unfortunately made him have such a bad reaction. Time will tell.
About 6 that night we got moved to a room and Jay was able to come from work. It was so late in the day, that we were not able to see any doctors. I stayed the night with Nathan and it was rough. He literally screamed until 1 in the morning. He starting hitting again, so they had to bring in Mental Health staff to help diffuse the situation.
The gentleman that came in was wonderful with Nathan and was able to help. In one hour they had to give him three different medications to calm him. Finally on the third try it worked, he passed out. I went to sleep and we were up at 6 with a couple of doctors in the room. Nathan quickly became agitated and at one point I counted 14 people in his room including security guards. I will say I know Nathan. He does not want to hurt anyone, EVER, but he gets frusturated so easily and it can appear that is what is happening. It was so hard to stand back and watch them take over and have no control. I needed Jay there. I had said the word Batten many times, but did not feel like anyone heard me. They wanted to put him in a POSE bed. For those who don't know, it is a bed with zippers all around where you can't get out.
I told them no. I kept saying this is a child with a brain disease that has no control over what he is doing and I will not allow him to be restrained in anyway or feel punished for something he can't control. Jay had made it very clear to me as well that they were not to restrain him. I finally called Jay in tears and told him he needed to be there with us. He drove straight over.
Thursday was a blur of doctors coming in and looking at Nathan, but nothing was really done in terms of tests. There was talk at one point of doing an MRI and EEG, but the idea of putting him under anesthesia is very different for a kiddo with Batten and having him tethered to an EEG for 24 hours was a difficult idea. The neurologist felt that they knew the tests would be abnormal so why bother putting him through any more trauma than need be. We were able to get him to eat a decent dinner which was the first real food he had in days. They were able to tweak a couple of medications that helped get him to sleep. Jay did not come prepared to stay the night and because he had Doctor ordered 24 hour two to one supervision we felt comfortable coming home to try and get a good night sleep to tackle the next day.
When we arrived on Friday, he was again very agitated. He was anxious as to where we were and when we arrived I think it was too much for him. They would have to put these mittens on his hands that had padding on them so that he could not hurt himself. We had asked the Doctor and nurse if we could take him out of the room to get him some fresh air and get him out of the room that he had been confined to for 3 days. The nurse immediately said that it would not be safe to allow him to leave his room due to his behavior. We asked what needed to happen in order to allow him to go to the basketball court. She indicated that she would check into it with the Doctor and let us know. The Doctor came and found us and asked to speak with us in the hall. He said if we could be patient, he would try to expedite that. We all agreed. He went in to Nathan's room and told the two male Mental Health workers and his nurse the plan. It was about 11 am. We found out that the basketball court did not open until 2. So we had some time to get him to calm down. We had not mentioned it to Nathan at this point. However, we know our son better than anyone else and knew that a change in his environment was what he needed. He was so good that afternoon and definitely warranted a trip out.
About 1:45 Jay started to get him dressed to go. We brought a wheelchair in his room and the nurse came in and wanted to know what we were doing. Jay told her the plan and she said we were not allowed to do that and she was getting the charge nurse. Jay went in the hall and spoke with the charge nurse. She said she was not aware of any arrangement and that an exception would have to be made any time someone has Mental Health supervision. Jay asked her to get her Manager and come back and speak to him. He waited 45 minutes for someone to come and finally he had to go find her. She said, "Sorry, it is not going to happen, but we will allow you to walk 4 rooms down and look out the window". That would not have done Nathan any good as he CAN'T SEE OUT THE WINDOW!! She then asked "Are you going home tonight?" We felt like that was very insensitive and was acting like we were a burden on the floor. We made the decision to leave that night and come home and be comfortable in our own home and beds and deal with whatever we had to deal with here. We were discharged around 8 pm.
We have had worse weekends and we have had better, but I will say that we were better off being home. We were given some new medications that help short term, but part of Nathan being in day treatment is to assess his medications long term.
Day 1 his back and forth sheet state he had 20 occurrences of self harm. When we got in the car, he was very angry and I counted 97 times that he hit himself.
Now, here is the exciting part. Day 2 they said he had a really good day and had NO occurrences of self harm and when he came out today he had about 3 minutes of anger and that was it. We had a pleasant drive home and he was funny and smiling and laughing. We have not seen or heard that in what feels like forever. It has been a great night with him. We are so hopeful that this program can help connect us with a child psychiatrist and help with behavior therapy and getting set up with palliative care. Those are our main goals. The program has reached out to the leading Batten expert and received some medical suggestions that we will be implementing, so we are hopeful. Just when we think we have run out of hope, we find it again.
I could not end this without thanking our community. Some very amazing people have come together to help our family out. We have come home to a meal every single night since this started. We have been able to leave a cooler on our front porch and people have been leaving meals in there. We cannot begin to express our gratitude for the outpouring of support we feel. I cannot tell you what a tremendous help that something as simple as a meal has been. I have been unable to cook for so long due to the constant interaction that Nathan requires and this has just been a plain lifesaver. We do not even know who is leaving the meals, but from the bottom of our hearts, we are forever grateful for everyone's generosity.
Thank you for everyone's love and concern for our family.

Day 1 of day treatment
I was up all night just sick to my stomach at the idea of taking Nathan back to day treatment. It was such a flashback to three years ago when we did this. I really wish this was not the route we had to go, but know it is our only option at this point.
Day 1 of day treatment was not the best. Nathan did not want to go, but with the help of the nurses was able to go in. We met with the intake person and I was asked to come back at 11 to meet with the team. We discussed our goals and talked about Batten. I let them know my main concern was that they understood his disease so they could better help him. The next concerns were him to stop hurting himself and stop screaming. If we can get these behaviors under control, there will be more peace in our house. This has been so hard on all of us. Madison does not have any 13 year old normalcy and it breaks my heart. Nathan is not a happy 11 year old and that kills me. I don't think Jay and I even know what normal is anymore.
After meeting with the team, I was in the hall and could hear him screaming for me that he wanted to go home. It breaks my heart, but we are hopeful that this will help. I waited at the hospital until 2:30 and picked him up. He was very agitated the whole way home. This will definitely take some adjustment.
Our wonderful community has organized meals for us. They have been such an amazing support for us. Since Jay and I both work, getting him to and from day treatment, working and getting dinner on the table is going to be a huge task. We cannot express how much we appreciate everything everyone has done or even offered to do. It really means the world to us during this difficult time.
I will keep everyone posted as they days go on. Thank you for all your love and support.
Jay and Stacey

The Top 8 Headlines You Might Have Missed / Haaretz Newsline, August 21
From Iran's upgrade of a short-range surface-to-surface missile, to studies citing the positive influence of Israeli hospital clowns on the medical process, Haaretz sums up the top headlines from Israel, the Middle East, and the Jewish World.
Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov warned the West on Tuesday against any unilateral action on Syria after President Barack Obama said U.S. forces could act if the Syrian leader deployed chemical weapons against rebels trying to topple him.
Senior defense officials have recently been visiting the ultra-Orthodox Shas party's spiritual leader, Rabbi Ovadia Yosef, to discuss a possible Israeli attack on Iran.
Defense Minister Ehud Barak plans to hold consultations with the Council for Higher Education and the Ariel University Center before deciding whether or not to recognize the Ariel University Center as a full-fledged university.
Iran's official news agency says the country has upgraded a short-range surface-to-surface ballistic missile just weeks after it was test-fired.
According to a government survey, last July saw another rise in unemployment rates. Results of the study, released on Tuesday, culled by the Israeli Employment Service, said that 20,100 people lost their jobs in July, with the overall number of unemployed Israelis reaching 187,200.
The Israeli embassy in Dublin was evacuated on Tuesday after a suspicious device was found on the premises, police said, later adding that the incident represented a false alarm.
A new Bible studies curriculum in the state's religious school system has stirred up a storm of controversy, surrounding the appointment of a woman as the new supervisor of Bible studies.
Israel's hospital clowning guild, Dream Doctors, is advocating for more inclusion of hospital clowns in the medical treatment process, citing studies that claim a clown's presence in pre-op reduces the amount of anesthesia administered and speeds up a patient's recovery time.

Needs some advice.
We received check-out after moving out of our property. Our landlord told us he would review the check-out report in a few days. He then took over 10 workings days to get back to us with disputes.
The deposit is in a protected scheme.
Where do we stand? Does the landlord have the opportunity to make disputes after 10 working days with no contact?
Can we ignore his disputes and demand our full deposits back?
Please help. Thanks!

This is no mystical or visionary dream with which I am presenting you. It involves hard business sense on the physical plane, a practical commonsense, a cessation of the constant presentation of a beautiful future in a mythical heaven of idleness and usefulness.
The bringing in of the Kingdom of God, the preparation for the coming of the Christ and the salvaging of mankind demand courage, organization, business acumen, psychology and persistence; it needs trained workers and much money; it calls for carefully considered programs, possessing long range vision, plus sensible modern procedures.
It is to this that all with true vision and love of humanity are called today; it means the spreading of an intelligently cultivate goodwill and the fostering of those conditions, attitudes and points of view which will inevitably bring about right human relations.
~~A Tibetan Master
Of Note: CEO God has not made an appearance in this blog for several months. As He also wears the hat of Supreme Fireman of the World, He's been understandably busy elsewhere. But if He did make a statement today, it might be the one above first printed over 50 years ago. I gather from these pointed words that the next evolutionary step will occur when right human relations are achieved. No small matter but obviously attainable if approached with courage, common sense and practical action motivated by good will for all.
Today's Weather Report: We awoke this morning to 4 to 6 inches of fresh snow. In some spots it had drifted to a foot. Blizzard conditions have prevailed most of the day. The picture above was taken only hours ago during a short break in the precipitation. All my garden sculptures and the like remain outside during the winter. Many are now entirely covered with snow only to be seen again next spring when, to my delight, rediscoveries will be made of forgotten treasures.
Watch For Change Snippets: Have you been struck by the irony that as 40 million more people went hungry in the rest of the world, the obesity epidemic took front stage in America in 2008? 66% of Americans are now overweight or obese, doubling the national obesity rate between 1976 and 1999. Apparently, California was the only state not getting chunkier. There must be great dissatisfaction in being obese because $50 billion is spent on diet programs annually in the USA. Cholesterol lowering drugs are now being prescribed for 8 year-olds--much to the delight of pharmaceutical companies. A slim President-elect Obama, who eats rice, broccoli and tuna daily similar to billions of folks worldwide, could be an model for change if he desired. We will have to wait and see if he seizes this opportunity in the face of the growing obesity epidemic engulfing the western world.

Semi-Rigid Car – Concept cars in the history of the motor vehicle industry, though usually produced for brand marketing purposes, amount to, arguably, an avant-garde. The particular evolutionary development of which industry has always depended on the deterritorialization associated with domesticated forms of transportation through the introduction of mutations into the system. There are several biases within concept car layout, of course, ranging from people who focus on advanced content applications, drive-train, fuel, protection, and other performance measurements, such as in Formula One, to those which concentrate on contemporary body design on a relatively unsociable, if not conventional chassis.

"What is a bicycle?" asked the title of a panel discussion at an international bike conference last month in Spain. "An engine-less car or a pedestrian on wheels?"
In Central Park, the odd, middling nature of the bike was put into stark relief during the police crackdown that started in January and focused on the running of red lights. Because the ticketing effort included hours when the park was closed to cars, many cyclists saw it as a form of harassment.

March 16, 2012
Building Information Modeling (BIM) is dramatically changing the way commercial and industrial design and construction is managed and how project teams interact. It involves the creation and use of intelligent, information-rich, 3D models throughout the lifecycle of a building, from design and engineering to construction and facilities management. Ideally, these models are shared and leveraged by all stakeholders to improve the efficiency and effectiveness of design and construction processes.
We strive to use BIM and related technologies wherever possible to improve the construction process from preconstruction through completion. The use of appropriate BIM tools can promote more accurate construction, more efficient processes, and tighter budgets. It can dramatically improve coordination, communication, and cost control as well as improve quality and the overall construction experience.
The challenge with BIM technologies is knowing when and where to use them. …

Founded in 1997, Mindmade Books (formerly Seeing Eye Books) is a small press publishing chapbooks of modern and contemporary poetry. Among the more than seventy titles that have appeared to date are works by internationally renowned poets, several "first collections," and occasional reprints of little-known or long-out-of-print texts.
While there is no single editorial vision, many Mindmade Books have explored the virtuality of the short lyric; the asemantic sign as a medium for poetry; and/or self-reflexivity, seriality, and constraint as compositional strategies. They have also tended to reflect an interest in coherent, chapbook-length works as opposed to groups of otherwise unrelated poems.

Text excerpted from Milorad Pavic's The Dictionary of the Khazars (1984 in Serbian, 1988 in English). The second paragraph of this excerpt was used by singer-songwriter Peter Murphy in lyrics to the song Shy [Deep (1989/90)]. This creation was simultaneous to Neil Gaiman's Sandman universe, which first began to publish October of 1988 (cover dated January of 1989). In Gaiman's archetypal system, Dream and Death are brother and sister.
Akshany, Yabir Ibn (17th Century)
Anatolian minstrels (lute and tambourine players) believed that Satan used this name for a while and that he appeared under it before one of the most celebrated lute players of the 17th century – Yusef Masudi. Ibn Akshany was himself a very deft player. There exists a written record of his fingering for a song, so we know that he used more than ten fingers to play his instrument.
He was a good looking man; he carried no shadow, and his shallow eyes were like two trampled puddles. Although he declined to make public his opinions about death, he conveyed them indirectly through his tales, advising people to read dreams or to gain knowledge about death from the dream hunters. Two proverbs are ascribed to him: (1) "Death is the surname of sleep, but that surname is unknown to us"; (2) "Sleep is the daily end of life, a small exercise in death, which is its sister, but not every brother and sister are equally close."
He once wanted once wanted to show people just how death operated, and he did so by using a Christian military commander whose name has been preserved: he was called Avram Brankovich, and he fought in Walachia, where, Satan claimed, every man is born a poet, lives like a thief, and dies a vampire.

Stylish and personal save the date photo card.
So much to love about this wedding save the date card, starting with the fact that this young man had a photographer on hand to capture his proposal! Disguised as a holiday family photo shoot, Chuck surprised Lauren with a very special Christmas present. Really, these save the dates designed themselves.
Didn't get your proposal professionally photographed? That's okay, this idea will still work even if you just use one sweet engagement photo and pair it with a fun monogram. These criss-cross monograms, as I'm calling it, are super trendy right now and work amazingly well for invitations. This one here features the bride's and groom's first initials, a fleur de lis to represent her roots in New Orleans, and the diamond to represent their engagement.

You can never go too far wrong with ivory satin and letterpress printing in black ink for an elegant wedding invitation. So simple, yet stunning, this traditional ceremony and black tie celebration was well foreshadowed by the invitations guests received to this Connecticut event.
Subtle monogram of the bride's and groom's first initials were letterpress printed in platinum ink on the front of this custom pocket folder. (See more about the etiquette of wedding monograms

There's a reason classic style is enduring.

Are you considering buying a home in 2016?
1. Start saving - stop borrowing. It is always great to reduce your debt, but you will also need money for a down payment and other closing costs.
2. Interview realtors! Yes, you read that right! Talk with 2 or 3 agents who work with buyers. In the end, you will know who the right agent to work with is.
3. Talk to a lender. Your agent can help you get connected if you do not know of any already. You will need to know what you can afford and get a pre-approval for.
4. Make a list of new home priorities. Think about the qualities of the home you will want. Think type of home, size and number of bedrooms.
5. Investigate neighborhoods. Research where you might like to live. Consider important factors such as distance to work and family, quality of schools, and anemities available.

LEXINGTON, Ill. (AP) - A health group has donated automated external defibrillators to police and fire departments in McLean County in central Illinois.
The Illinois Heart and Lung Foundation gave the AED units to first responders in 14 rural communities this week in Lexington. External defibrillators can be used to revive a person experiencing sudden cardiac arrest, that is, when their heart abruptly stops beating.
Foundation executive director Kathi Franklin tells the (Bloomington) Pantagraph the group is working to provide AEDs to all first responders in the region.
Chenoa police received two defibrillators because they serve Chenoa and Gridley. Receiving one AED each were first responders in Anchor, Arrowsmith, Bellflower, Colfax, Cooksville, Danvers, Heyworth, Hudson, Lexington, McLean, Saybrook, Stanford and the McLean County sheriff's department.

I don't know what was happened and realized that this aunty is going to fuck by me .She is kissing me from the back side on my neck and pressing her boos to my back, it was a very nice experience like a heaven and I slowly turned HER side and I gave a big hug from behind and I justly kissed on her eyes and forehead. she just close her eyes and enjoying the feeling. Then I just kissed and release on her pink and sexy lips. She just shived for my kiss and gave small moan. Again I keep on kissing on her lips and took her lower lip with my teeth and gently pressed it and I insert my lips and tong into her month and keep on kissing for 10 min. while kissing her I just place my hands back to her waist and rubbing her waist very justly, actually she having a very week point there for a sexy mood. Then I moved my hands to her hips and keep on pressing that very soft and nice hips from the Saree. Now I put my left hand on her blouse and just press are release on her left boom, which is very soft and stiff. She asked me to remove her blouse, I have done it and stunned to see her '36/24/36 " figure. I am very anxious to have her in front of me who am having a best figure. She asked me to press her boos and suck her pink nipples, I pressed her boobs with my both hands, but my hands are not getting the grip to fully enjoy because her boobs are very large and that is very new to me (This is my first experience). She is a whitish complexion and her boobs becoming reddish due to pressing. She has a good novel and I brought an Ice piece from the fritz which was there in the room and asked her to sleep in the bed. She obeyed my order and slept there.
Now she is having only her petticoat and panty and having very thin waist. I placed the Ice cube in the novel and moved it to her stomach and novel three or four times, she is moaning with a pleasure and asking me to lick her novel with a ice cube. I places a Ice cube on her novel and licking her novel with my tong and she is moaning very please and asking me to fuck.

CHICAGO — Every once in a while, research quantifies the effects of certain education policies on students. Then, the results are often shelved in favor of the prevailing "common sense." As in: If you want more scientists, mandate more science courses in school.
Let's hope this fate doesn't happen with "Missing the Mark," a report by the ACT college readiness test's Research and Policy division. Authors Richard Buddin and Michelle Croft studied the high school graduating classes of 2005 through 2013 in Illinois, not including Chicago, that were affected by a state law mandating a minimum of three years of math and two years of science for students to graduate.
Before the reform, about 23 percent of Illinois school districts required three years of math, while about 75 percent required two years of science. Researchers were able to compare districts affected by the new law to those that had already had such requirements.
By 2013, Buddin and Croft found that the law narrowed the science course-taking gap by 50 percent. But it had little effect on trends in math course-taking. And the requirements also had little impact across the board for student achievement on the ACT college readiness exam for mathematics and science.
While students in the bottom half of their classes did take more science instruction this did not move the needle on college enrollment.
"The results suggest that more advanced coursework alone is not enough to improve student learning or college-going," said Scott Montgomery, ACT vice president of policy, advocacy and government relations. "A majority of students will require more intensive preparation for advanced coursework or coursework that is better adapted to their learning needs. In addition, low-performing students often need extra encouragement and supports, not just new standards, to take more advanced courses and succeed in them."
As always, there's more to the story. One of the caveats of the research is that it looked only at results based on the changes in the numbers of courses taken. No measure of the quality of or content within courses before or after enactment of the law was assessed — an important variable that deserves its own appraisal in the still-evolving equation for getting students on STEM (science, technology, engineering and mathematics) career paths that deserves its own appraisal.
"Obviously, Illinois is well-intentioned in the process of increasing benchmarks, rigor and courses as an approach to getting students to choose math and science careers," said Christopher Emdin, a professor at Teachers College of Columbia University and the author of "Urban Science Education for the Hip-Hop Generation."
"But we fundamentally know that more courses being taught the same exact way as they always have will not increase persistence or affect career choice," Emdin told me. "There is a gap in the nature of the instructor and not in the availability of the course."
Emdin believes that existing STEM teachers and teachers-in-training need specialized professional coaching and mentoring to teach for motivation and understanding of the material instead of just for the grade.
He says that because students are more likely to persist in courses related to the arts, this approach opens up an opportunity for the complexities of science of math to be understood through a focus on art and creativity, communication and scientific sensibility rather than simply content knowledge.
"If we are effective in the delivery of the content in basic classes, you would more likely be successful in getting students to voluntarily take advanced math and science courses and even motivate them to see these as career tracks that are open to them," said Emdin. "As it is, kids who are already college bound jump through the extra hoops but don't go into STEM fields."
There will always be students who "get" math and science and don't need special classes. For the rest, a retooling of teaching methods that instills the wonder, beauty and practicality of math and science is in order if we want more kids to successfully pursue STEM careers.

Bonterra Ratings and Reviews
I had a surprise 70th birthday party for my significant other with 10 friends and family in attendance. The front staff worked with me to make sure everything was completely ready for the surprise by the time we arrived. Jeff, out server, was excellent and attentive all night. The choice of appetizers, entrees and desserts were varied and appealed to all those in attendance. Everything was superb. I would highly recommend.
The menu did not have a lot of options. It was noisy and not a very quaint environment. It was hard to carry a conversation. There was a large party in the balcony area and they were loud and obnoxious. The group was playing some trivia game that could be heard throughout the restaurant. Some of the trivia topics were offensive.
The restaurant is situated in an old converted Methodist Church. Fairly wide open space w/ an upper level which you can't see clearly from the lower level. Decoration is fairly plain and simple and the noise level from the upper mezzanine can be quite loud. But the food and service is excellent. Certainly worth a visit, but not if you intend to have a quiet romantic type meal.
I finally made it to Bonterra and was not disappointed. The food was excellent and the wine list was quite extensive. Convenient to downtown, so was the perfect spot for a preconcert meal and short Uber ride to the Spectrum Centre. I particularly enjoyed the Wood-fired steak as it was cooked to perfection. It didn't hurt that it was accompanied by a nice Merry Edwards Pinot Noir which was a nice find on the wine list. We will definitely be back and would like to try dinner in the wine cellar some time.
Bread was dry and bland. Mussels in ente had very little flavor; fish was well cooked and moist but bland. Salt helped but that was too little, too late. Soufflé should have taken 15 minutes but took 35. Server was friendly and professional. Appetizer of blackened watermelon and pork belly was okay, but not exciting. Although the parking lot was empty, attendant had to run next door for our car. He stated only VIP's cars were allowed in main lot!
We dont normally write reviews but just had to on this one.... food was delicious, ambiance quaint and cozy in this old church, service excellent never rushed.
Now on to the good part! Porkbelly app was amazing taste of salt and sweet with the grilled watermelon, yes watermelon.
Entrees Scallops and Snapper were on point!
Dessert .... Fried Cheesecake .... probably the best dessert i have ever had. Cooked to perfection and delicious!
We will be back!!
My girlfriend and I were there to celebrate our eighth anniversary. Everything was truly amazing, the charcuterie board is one of the best I've had in Charlotte and the fried lobster tails were great. Our server, Zachary, was a little busy but he still provided outstanding service and was there to answer all of our questions. His recommendation of the cheesecake was the perfect ending to a great meal. Not ridiculously expensive but a tad pricey; however when everything taste so great there are absolutely no reasons to complain. We'll definitely be back!!
The appetizer of pork belly and grilled watermelon was excellent, the server recommended a very nice red but the good review stops there. The server was unprofessional, and sloppy, managing to miss our water glasses on 3 different occasions. The sweet corn soup was bland, the strip was OK and the duck was just OK as well. Given the other reviews I have seen I was disappointed. I can only assume that we experienced an off night or the other reviews are from the staff themselves.
Great service, good food, but definitely need work on the ambience and interior. It hasn't changed in over 5 years and having dirty drop ceiling tiles (that cost $2/tile) is not excusable when dinner for 2 runs $150-$200 on average. They have such a great building and just need to make a small investment into bringing it it back to life.
I came to Bonterra for the first time during Restaurant Week and I loved it. Each course was delicious and the wine selection is unmatched in Charlotte. The sirloin for my second course was especially good, my mom had the pork tenderloin which was also delicious. Overall a great experience and I would certainly return.
In fairness, this was during Queen's feast, Charlotte's restaurant week, which may not be the most representative experience. That said, we were willing to order off the regular menu but the server explained that was not an option.
With 4 diners ordering off a $35/per person pre-fixe menu, our bill was just under $500. We had drinks, but nothing out of the ordinary, each diner had 2-3 drinks in some combination of (beer cocktail, wine) I asked for a house red that might go well with my entrée and the server brought an agreeable cabernet. I did not ask the price but I felt tricked when I got the bill and it was $22/glass. This is not to say that a great glass of wine is not worth $22/glass, but when the entire 3-course meal is $35, I think a good server would clarify - our server was otherwise polite and knowledgeable. In general, an evening which is presumably intended as a way to introduce new clientele was marred with the unmistakable feeling that drinks were marked-up to offset the low-cost of the Queen's feast meal.
The salad was the best part of the meal and it featured really tasty ripe tomatoes and really fresh greens . We wanted to pay for a charcuterie plate, but the server explained that was "not allowed," so we made do with the bread. As it happens, we had a loaf of homemade bread with some hummus with our friends at home before we headed out. We all agreed the bread at home was much better. The "olive oil" was indistinguishable from plain vegetable oil.
The entrées were mixed: 1 was great, 2 were good, 1 was OK. We skipped the "third course" the uninspiring desserts.
It was a mediocre meal at a gourmet price. I was still hungry when we left.
We love Bonterra, however our experience last night was disappointing. We were seated 25 minutes late. They were out of several wines. The wait staff seemed frazzled and clumsy, 2 trays of dishes were dropped while we were there. The food was less than stellar. My steak was not cooked to order, overdone, and extremely salty. Not what we expected from Bonterra.
