For fans of J Lynn, Jodi Ellen Malpas, and Sylvia Day comes Yours Completely, an all-consuming, raw, and powerful love story....
Lana Case knows what it feels like to be tossed aside - first by her family and then by the man she naively believed was her true love. But when Jack leaves, reconfirming that she isn't worthy of love, her world shatters. The last person Lana thought to find refuge in is an adrenaline-junky firefighter, let alone Jack's best friend. Yet Callum Malone's easygoing playboy persona is just what she needs. When Lana finds herself the target of a stalker who isn't going away, Callum welcomes her not only into his home but also into his bed.
Unable to deny the chemistry between them, Lana gives in and, after a night of fiery passion, discovers what it finally feels like to be not only cherished - but safe. Lana and Callum are falling fast, knowing they're both far out of their depth. And then Jack returns to claim the woman he left behind.... Addictive and unforgettable, Lana's story will seduce, surprise, and stay with you.
A brand-new romance by the number-one best-selling author of Break Me Slowly, the Reign series is an emotional roller coaster you'll want to keep riding forever.
©2014 Joya Ryan (P)2015 Audible, Inc.
So Jack's left the country leaving the heartbroken, confused, devastated and bitter Lana behind but he has also left an opening for the patient, drool-worthy Firefighter and ex Playboy Callum to step in and seize his chance with Lana. He knows it's going to be an uphill struggle, a nearly impossible feat and an emotionally and sexually frustrating endeavour but he's willing to take the chance, to put in the effort and to pull out all the weapons in his very large arsenal because, for him, to win Lana's love would be worth it all. So he starts off slowly by being a friend, a shoulder to cry on and giving her a taste of a loving family when he introduces her to his lovely Aunt who had raised both him and Jack. And before too long the chemistry that was always there between them started to smoulder once again just waiting for that spark.
However, Lana was fighting the attraction - she was sadly and annoyingly still in love with Jack but Jack had left her..... left her lost and emotionally bleeding from the near fatal wound to her heart but it still beat and could it possibly heal and be made whole again by Callum who was there giving her all that he had and showing her all that he was..... or was he? Because he too was keeping secrets back, secrets that was going to eventually destroy the love and trust that had been slowly, tenderly and successfully built brick by loving brick. Lana's Father, the evil Stepmother and her cruel and vicious Stepbrother are continuing to give her emotional grief as their shady, devastating and increasingly dangerous actions build.
A heartbreaking, raw, beautiful and romantic story that also had its fair share of passionate loving sex scenes. The Aunt and best friend are good secondary characters and the drama and angst surrounding her dysfunctional family makes for additional interest. Still told from Lana's POV and still very well narrated so you're swept up in all the mental images that this well-written emotional story provokes.
Worth a credit? YES absolutely..... and still the story is climbing and climbing because now Jack is back for Lana and Callum isn't about to stand aside.... no he's prepared to fight for the woman he loves.... but so too is Jack. Thank God I've got book 3 ready coz the suspense is killing me.
"Whiny woman"
It's so irritating having all the angst and little actual story. Yes men in these stories are also full of themselves. But great sex scenes
"Really? I can't believe the ratings!"
I would kick Lana's butt and get her out of her own head. She's pathetic, 7 hours of introspection, I wanted to gag.
Nope this was it. Since there are so many positive ratings here Ms Stark shouldn't change her formula, it obviously appeals to a demographic that I don't belong to.
Uhmmm what? Like donate to a fund for writers who don't create tiresome female leads?
"one or the other"
ok so the first book made me want to listen to the second, the second wants me to listen to the third. jack pissed me off, not listening to her. but glad he is not the end.
"Team Callum"
Holy love triangle! I did not see this coming. About to start book 3, and I can't wait! I have to say that I think she has a deeper, more real relationship with Callum, but I'm afraid that she has a stronger connection with Jack. Great story so far and I adore Jennifer Stark's narration!

Budget was all about power, not about rewarding the taxpayers for their sacrifices in the austerity years
While economic turmoil may have abated in Ireland, the political chaos that transpired in the wake of the General Election was on full show yesterday as Budget 2017 was revealed in all of its gruesome glory.
In this first budgetary outing of the minority Government, Finance Minister Michael Noonan promised to "keep faith" with the prudent policies pursued in the past five years.
The story fell apart in stages.

Hello, my name is Jose and I'd like to thank you in advance for taking the time to view my profile. That being said, let me tell you a bit about myself. I am a 28 year old Latino from Chicago, Illinois. I'm 5'7" with a stocky build. I occupy my time by lifting weights, reading, writing, drawing and doing pretty much anything that can take my mind off the everyday stress of incarceration. I'm very easygoing, down to earth with a great sense of humor. I am also a good speaker but a better listener.
What am I looking for? I'm looking to build a friendship (and possible relationship) that can go the distance. They say there's "somebody" out there for everyone and I'm hoping to find my "somebody" one day. For me looks don't mean a thing and it doesn't matter if you're thin/plus size. It's what's on the inside that counts. I'm a loyal, sincere and honest person so naturally I'd like for you to have these same qualities as well. I'm looking for someone who can carry on a conversation about anything and who never runs out of things to talk about because like I said, I'd like to take my mind out of prison as often as possible. Not everyone who's incarcerated is a bad person and I'd like for you to give me the opportunity to prove it to you. So write me, tell me about yourself. What are your likes/dislikes? What's your name? Let's get to know each other. I'm just one letter away…if possible please include a pic with your letter/message.
Thank you for your time, I look forward to hearing from you.

Using Poetry: Mary had a little lamb. where art thou, Romeo?
© Beverley Paine, 2004
Reading includes poetry - rhymes are one of the most powerful ways to help children become engaged and learn to read. It's sad that by the time most children become teenagers rhymes are restricted to song lyrics...
Don't forget to hunt for some poetry - and songs - that tie in with the books and movies you are reading. Reciting or reading poetry is a much neglected part of everyday life. We begin on the right path when the children are tiny, chanting and singing rhymes at, and with, them, but forget that poetry is an art form that, like paintings, sketches, sculpture and dance, can soothe and refresh the soul, challenge us to think deeply, excite our imaginations and stir the emotions.
We can't avoid poetry, however, even if we try! How many of us find ourselves repeating rhyming advertising couplets, or singing jingles throughout each day?
Point out to your children that these are poetry too, that the world is full of practical and useful poetry as well as artistic poetry.
Songs are simply poetry to music: encourage your children to sing from an early age; not that most need encouragement! I love the Beatles music; it's so easy to sing along to and conjures up great imagery.
I love reading aloud Shakespeare as it's tremendously powerful. You don't need to understand the words to feel the emotion embedded in them.
There's a poem for every occasion. I know families who read poetry to each other each day and make up outrageous limericks at the breakfast table.

I'm a recent transplant from Los Angeles, now living in the Edgewater Apts at 23rd and Race. I was hoping for some suggestions of places that are either a short walk or that will deliver to us here. We're adventurous eaters and like all kinds of food. Thoughts?

There is nothing better than starting the day with a good breakfast or brunch. I was never been a big fan of porridge as a child but as I learned to cook I used my granny's recipe and adapted it to my own taste. Back then they used water and a pinch if salt and it was a bit gloppy but mine is slightly different with chopped nuts, chia sends and almond milk giving it a creamy, nutty texture bursting with flavour.
150g Organic porridge oats
1/2 pt. Water
1/2 pt. Unsweetened Almond Milk
1pinch Salt
20g Whole almonds chopped up
Chia seeds
Drizzle of Manuka honey
Pop half of the milk, water, and salt in a non stick pan, slide in your oats and chia seeds. Cook over a low to medium heat until all liquid is gone and then gradually add the remaining liquid until all is gone, this should take 15-30 minutes. Top with chopped nuts and a drizzle of wonderful Manuka Honey.
Then for the smoothie
1 ripe banana
200g Raspberries (frozen from my allotment).
300ml Natural yogurt
2 Kiwis chopped
1tsp. Chia seeds
1tblsp. Manuka honey
100ml Cranberry juice
Whack everything into a food processor and blitz,
here we have two simple recipes that are packed with goodness and will give you a great start to the day!

Will Gravity outweigh 12 Years a Slave and American Hustle? Can Matthew McConaughey coast to his first win? And will previous winner Cate Blanchett be giving her statuette some company?
As the Oscar race enters its final stretch, PEOPLE's critic handicaps the contenders gunning for gold this Sunday.
Best Supporting Actor
Jared Leto
Don't blame the actors for jacking up your Oscar ballot. Nearly all of this year's front-runners are heavy favorites, so they're probably not going to keep you from winning the office pool. (I wish you all kinds of luck with those tricky technical categories, though.) Indeed, Leto – who faces off against Barkhad Abdi (Captain Phillips), Bradley Cooper (American Hustle), Michael Fassbender (12 Years a Slave) and Jonah Hill (The Wolf of Wall Street) – has all but assured a win for his performance as Rayon, the transgender woman who goes into business with McConaughey's Ron Woodroof to provide safer drugs to people with HIV/AIDS in Dallas Buyers Club. But that's as it should be. Lesser actors might've turned Rayon into a caricature, but Leto develops a fully realized person, one who's fighting just as hard as Woodroof not simply to survive, but to live.
Best Supporting Actress
Lupita Nyong'o
I've adored Jennifer Lawrence since I first saw her in Winter's Bone, and have been delighted with nearly every performance since. She's hilarious in American Hustle as Rosalyn Rosenfeld, giving a surprisingly nuanced take on an outlandishly big character (and in a movie full of them, no less). But I have to give the edge to Lupita Nyong'o. The newcomer – who's also up against Sally Hawkins (Blue Jasmine), Julia Roberts (August: Osage County) and June Squibb (Nebraska) – is a revelation as Patsey in 12 Years a Slave, trapped in her master's glare, an object of his revulsion and his lust. When finally called on to unleash Patsey's festering rage, she does so with a mighty roar that doesn't begin to diminish our empathy for her. I fervently hope that Nyong'o takes that Oscar, but furthermore, that she goes on to have the kind of career opportunities readily available to an actress like Lawrence.
PHOTOS: Let the Oscars Parties Begin!
Best Actor
Matthew McConaughey
Let's take a moment to pour one out for the homies who aren't here – the cruelly snubbed Robert Redford and the (arguably) overlooked Tom Hanks. With that said, drink up for Dallas Buyers Club's McConaughey, who's clearly had the most dramatic artistic maturation of any of this year's nominees. (McConaughey's competition? Christian Bale in American Hustle, Bruce Dern in Nebraska, Leonardo DiCaprio in The Wolf of Wall Street and Chiwetel Ejiofor in 12 Years a Slave.) Need I remind you that this is the same dude who slouched through Dazed and Confused, extolling the glories of high-school girls? His portrayal of Ron Woodroof, a hard-living rodeo clown/electrician/SOB, is beautifully well-rounded, hilarious, heartbreaking, infuriating and heroic, often at the same time. In fact, he deserves bonus points for having worked so hard to get Dallas Buyers Club made in the first place. When you champion a passion project and deliver a stellar performance, you know what that makes you? Golden.
Best Actress
Cate Blanchett
Another case of will win/should win, no matter what residual dirt may have fallen on her as a result of the Woody Allen controversy. None of the director's travails should affect Blanchett, who delivered the most vivid, captivating performance of any actress this year. She's be squaring off against Amy Adams (American Hustle), Sandra Bullock (Gravity), Judi Dench (Philomena) and Meryl Streep (August: Osage County). (Given the fact that the Best Actress nominees have 38 past and present Oscar nods between them, that's saying a great deal.) In Blue Jasmine, Blanchett takes an entirely unlikeable character and makes her sympathetic, with a turn that's somehow delicate yet snatches the film by its throat. In short, she steals Allen's movie from him.
Best Director
Alfonso Cuarén
I'm splitting my vote this year. Cuarén excelled at achieving a singular vision for Gravity, a film that relies far more on the man behind the camera (and his peerless technical team) than it does on tight dialogue, effective costumes, cool makeup, or even – gasp! – great performances. (The other nominees include David O. Russell for American Hustle, Alexander Payne for Nebraska, Steve McQueen for 12 Years a Slave and Martin Scorsese for The Wolf of Wall Street.) It's as close to one man telling a story as big-budget action movies get, even if there's so much CGI going on that it technically qualifies as an animated film. With that said, though
RELATED: Red Carpet Standouts: Then & Now
Best Picture
12 Years a Slave
There's no doubt in my mind that 12 Years a Slave should win best picture. As a fully realized cinematic experience, 12 Years is the most satisfying film of the year. (This year's nine-way race also includes American Hustle, Captain Phillips, Dallas Buyers Club, Gravity, Her, Nebraska, Philomena and The Wolf of Wall Street.) Yes, it's also the most painful – but then, shouldn't it be? Shouldn't we be gutted watching the rape, torture and murder of Americans on our own soil? Shouldn't we own that experience, nonetheless? Don't we owe it to the people who were turned into commodities to bear witness?
Yes, 12 Years is an important film (and all that that implies), but it's also an exquisitely made piece of cinema, with the kind of exceptional dialogue and performances that Gravity, quite frankly, lacks. Speaking of the actors, there isn't a disappointing one in the bunch, from the nominated stars, like Chiwetel Ejiofor, Nyong'o and Michael Fassbender, to those who were overlooked – from Paul Giamatti as a brutal slave trader bereft of empathy, to Adepero Oduye as a mother subsumed by grief over the loss of her children, to Sarah Paulson as the vicious Mistress Epps, possessing a political scientist's mastery of soft power. In concert, they deliver a work that not only paints a haunting portrait of our nation at its ugliest, but that will also change the way we talk about race onscreen. That's the power of an amazing film.

Dow Jones Jobs
Some people marvel what number of days the stock market is open in the United States. The market is often the strongest across the last day of the month, or no less than the last trading day of the month. He points to at least one extraordinarily tiny market which is certainly nearing the highest of a bubble, and he initiatives that this specific drop-in-the-bucket Chinese Shanghai market is going to collapse the entire system. However it does not imply that you just shouldn't invest in a market which has numerous enthusiasm.
The other distinction between a inventory and a forex market is that stock markets operate in shares and companies which belong to a particular nation; foreign exchange markets then again operate globally and might embrace any and each country of the world. Stock market participation refers back to the number of brokers who buy and promote fairness backed securities both directly or indirectly in a financial exchange.
A May sixteen article outlined the ideas shown below intimately; large moves often come within the inventory market after long intervals of consolidation. The situation has turned to be dicey because the India market news feel that it might definitely need time for the world's largest financial system to recover from the massive losses and despite the massive financial bailout, evidently the worldwide recession is difficult to be taken over with ease. As you'll be able to see, unemployment has been under the Fed's 6.5% target for some time.
Dow Jones has produced unrivaled quality content for greater than a hundred twenty five years and right this moment has one of the world's largest news gathering operations globally. In January 1973, a New York Times poll of eight market authorities predicted that the market would move considerably greater" sooner or later. Stock buying and selling generally permits for no more than 2 instances leverage in margin buying and selling.
Forex market opens 24-hour whereas US inventory market opens each day from 930am EST to 4pm EST. The stock market news have supported the identical as to get well from the global recession will have to be solely with the help of nicely deliberate economic methods which only economists and monetary consultants can determine. When the rate of interest futures rally too exhausting to quick and then fall, you'll be able to typically see the dollar rally. Easy to make use of Instantly useable for informal market checks but also cofigurable to point out your portfolio.

I had a few of you ask who the artist was behind the skull piece I featured yesterday... Well, I have a surprise for you! Today's post? It's all about him!
Paul Alexander Thornton is simply spectacular in my book! After discovering him through Pinterest, I was totally hooked on his work. Like no other. It reminds me a lot of Gustav Klimt and his abstractions (He is SOOO my absolute favorite!) So this guy... He's got my attention quite beautifully. According to his profile on his website he "has a love affair with ballpoint pens and felt-tips, and has an eclectic style that ranges from decadent, intricate and sometimes photo-realistic ballpoint pen drawings all the way through to psychedelic drawings that make your eyes melt."
Total love, right?! Sooo amazing. And inspiring. And I want. Like beyond anything... Want!

Vauxhall have high hopes for the Astra in 2017 after the model made a strong finish to last year.
Latest figures released by the Society of Motor Manufacturers and Traders showed the Vauxhall Astra topped the sales charts in its class in each of the last three months of 2016, a period during which almost 16,000 examples were sold. The news capped an excellent year for the Vauxhall Astra, during which it was crowned European Car of the Year as well as collecting trophies at the Auto Express, What Car?, and Fleet News awards.
The Astra also helped Vauxhall cement its place as the number one supplier to UK police forces, where the company enjoys a 70% market share and last year built the largest dedicated police car factory in Europe to meet demand.
"The Astra is the best family car on the market," said Rory Harvey, Vauxhall's Chairman and Managing Director.
"After winning a host of top awards, 2016 was the new Astra's first full year on the market and I am very pleased to see it top its segment in the fourth quarter and the second half of the year. Now we focus on 2017, with our best-ever product portfolio and five new models in the pipeline."

Newspapers report on how the new agreement between the teachers' union and education minister may not solve shortage problem.17 April 2008
THE NETHERLANDS - Several papers report that Education Minister Ronald Plasterk and the teachers' unions finally managed to reach an agreement on pay and conditions early on Wednesday morning.
However, the new agreement will not solve all the problems plaguing the Dutch education system and the headlines reflect this.
Trouw goes with, "agreement is a step in the right direction" and de Volkskrant has "nice plan, even if it is late". NRC.next sums it up nicely with, "the money's nice but most of the teachers are due for pension". Many of the country's teachers are about to hit retirement age and the shortage of teachers is threatening to become chronic.
NRC.next writes that teachers will be getting a significant pay rise but that the question remains as to whether it will make teaching a more attractive profession.
The demand for more pay and better conditions was prompted by the shortage of teachers threatening the education system. The idea behind it being that if teachers were better paid, the benefits were better and the opportunities to earn more were improved then more people would decide to join the profession instead of earning three times as much working in the private sector.
The leader of one union said the agreement was, "most certainly not the definitive solution for the shortage of teachers" while another union leader said it was "an important step in the right direction".

Tradition is a funny thing. More often than not, no one really knows how any one in particular began; all they do know is the sky will certainly fall if they break it.
One pundit probably came closest to the truth when he remarked, "Tradition is how something was done when you were growing up."
Nowhere is this more apparent than at the Thanksgiving table, where traditions are often treated as if they have been etched in stone, while in reality they're changing all the time.
We have a fixed memory of the way the meal was in our childhood, and clear notions of "how it ought to be" but our family's dynamic brings changes so subtle that we often don't notice. Even the one thing that we "don't dare change" gets a subtle overhauling with time.
Marriage brings on an inevitable merging of two traditions that may take years to settle into. Aunt Millie dies without passing on her yeast roll recipe; one of the children goes off to college and becomes a vegetarian. Someone develops a severe allergy to shellfish. It all brings change to the table.
This became very apparent when I posted a query on Facebook asking people for the one dish they dared not exclude. Everyone had a "tradition," but almost none of them were so sacred that they survived exactly as Mama or Grandma made them.
The very best example was photographer Scott Bryant's Garlic Mashed Potatoes. Bryant's in-laws had a tradition for potato salad; his own family's tradition was mashed potatoes. To keep a little of his own traditions, he started making mashed potatoes. Except, what he makes is nothing like his grandmother's; they're enriched with lots of cream and spiked with roasted garlic.
This year as you start planning your menu, perhaps the secret to keeping your own traditions may well be to quietly stretch them as much as possible.
Lucy-Mama's Oysters
For good friend and fellow cookbook author Chef Ruth Adams Bronz, the only fixed dish on her Thanksgiving menu is her grandmother's scalloped oysters. The one time she tried to omit them, her annual crowd of 30 plus was near mutiny. Once you taste them, you will understand why. Instead of baking them in one dish as Lucy-Mama did, Bronz now finishes them in individual scallop shells.
Serves 8
8 individual scallop shells or pie plate
1 quart shucked oysters and their liquor
30 saltine crackers
1/2 cup (4 ounces or 1 stick) unsalted butter
1/2 cup chopped parsley
3/4 cup chopped scallions, both white and green parts
1 cup heavy cream
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
2 teaspoons Tabasco sauce
Salt and whole black pepper in a mill
1, Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. Butter an 8 individual scallop shells. Strain oysters, reserving liquor. Crush saltines into medium crumbs.
2. Melt 2/3 of butter in large skillet over medium heat until foamy. Add 2/3 of saltine crumbs and stir until evenly coated with butter. Add parsley and scallions and toss (mixture should be quite dry and just beginning to brown). Add oyster liquid and cream and simmer, stirring often, until reduced by 1/4. Watch carefully. Add oysters, Worcestershire, Tabasco, and salt and pepper to taste. Stir well.
3. Divide mixture among shells or pour into pie plate. Wipe out pan. Add remaining butter and melt over medium low heat. Add remaining crumbs and toss until coated. Sprinkle over oysters and bake until bubbly, about 10 minutes.
Wild Mushroom and Country Ham Stuffing
Nothing causes more contention than what you do or don't put inside the turkey. Mine was a dressing family (baked outside the bird), but once upon a time, most Georgia cooks stuffed the bird. The base of this recipe dates back into the 1850s, but it has been subjected to subtle change from my own experience.
Makes about 7 1/2 cups, stuffing a 12-pound turkey
1 ounce imported dried porcini mushrooms, reconstituted and soaking liquid reserved (see notes below)
1/2 pound fresh crimini (sometimes labeled baby bella) mushrooms
1/2 pound shiitake mushrooms
1 cup chopped shallots
4 tablespoons bacon drippings or unsalted butter
1 cup cubed dry-cured (country) ham
5 cups (tightly packed) small-diced or finely crumbled day-old European style bread
1/2 cup minced parsley
Salt and whole black pepper in a peppermill
Whole nutmeg in a grater
Turkey broth, as needed
1. Boil 1 cup water and pour over dried mushrooms. Let stand 15-30 minutes. Dip in soaking water several times to loosen dirt and lift out. Strain water through an un-dyed paper towel or coffee filter and reserve. Wipe fresh mushrooms clean with a clean, dry cloth, and cut in small dice.
2. Put shallots and drippings in pan large enough to hold all stuffing and turn on heat to medium. Saute, tossing, until golden, but not browned, about 5 minutes. Add ham and saute until it loses raw red color. Add both mushrooms and saute until fresh mushrooms are beginning to color, about 4 minutes. Turn off heat.
3. Put bread in large mixing bowl. Add shallot, ham, mushrooms, and parsley. Season well with a healthy pinch of salt, a few grindings of black pepper, and a liberal grating of nutmeg. Moisten with soaking liquid from mushrooms and toss until evenly moistened but not soggy, adding broth if needed. If made ahead, cover and refrigerate.
4. When ready to stuff turkey, put stuffing into skillet in which shallots and mushrooms cooked and turn on heat to medium. Heat, tossing, until evenly hot, and spoon loosely into bird. Truss up bird and roast immediately. Stuffing that does not fit can be put in lidded buttered casserole and baked (next step).
5. Alternatively, stuffing can be put into a buttered, lidded 3-quart casserole, basted with turkey roasting juices, and baked, covered, until bubbly, about 30 minutes. Remove lid and bake until lightly browned, about 10 minutes longer.
Bacon-Braised Brussels Sprouts
In my family it is not Thanksgiving without a big pot of collard greens. I am equally content if the greens are Brussels sprouts, especially if they are braised in bacon.
Serves 6
2 pounds fresh Brussels sprouts
4 ounces extra-thick-sliced applewood smoked bacon, (about 3 slices) cut in 1/2-inch dice
1 small red onion, quartered, peeled and thinly sliced
1 tablespoon chopped fresh, or 1 teaspoon crumbled dried thyme
Salt and whole black pepper in a peppermill
1. Wash sprouts under cold running water and drain well. Trim and split in half lengthwise.
2. Put bacon in a large, lidded saute pan or skillet over medium heat. Saute, tossing frequently, until browned and fat is rendered, about 4 minutes. Add onion and saute, tossing frequently, until golden, about 4 minutes. Add sprouts and toss until golden brown on cut side but still bright green, about 5-8 minutes.
3. Add thyme and season with a little salt and pepper. Add a about ? cup of water, reduce heat to medium low, cover tightly, and braise until tender but not mushy, about 8 to 10 minutes. Sprouts should be a nice green and firm, but not crisp. Turn off heat. Taste and adjust seasonings, toss, and serve warm.
Scott's Garlic Mashed Potatoes
In photographer Scott Bryant's family, mashed potatoes were traditional at Thanksgiving, but his wife's grandmother makes potato salad, so Bryant started bringing the mashed potatoes, bumping up his family's tradition with roasted garlic and heavy cream. These are terrific with any poultry, pork, and steak.
Serves 4-6
1 large head of garlic
Olive oil
2 pounds russet potatoes
1 tablespoon salt
1 cup heavy cream
4 tablespoons butter
Warm whole milk, as needed
Whole white or black pepper in a mill, optional
1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Slice 1/4-inch from top of garlic, leaving head whole. Put on aluminum foil and drizzle with olive oil. Loosely wrap, leaving a small opening at top. Roast until garlic is very soft, around 40 minutes.
2. Peel potatoes and cut in even quarters. Put in 4-quart pot with enough cold water to cover and stir in salt. Bring to a boil, then simmer until potatoes are just fork tender, about 20 minutes. Remove pot from heat and drain well. Put through ricer into pot or return to pot and mash with hand-held masher.
3. Separate cloves of garlic and squeeze pulp into small saucepan. Stir in cream and butter. Heat gently and stir occasionally until warmed and butter is melted. Mix gradually into hot potatoes. If needed, add warm milk until desired consistency is reached. Season to taste with pepper and more salt, as needed necessary.
Cranberry Preserves
Like many families in the South, my own family didn't have fresh cranberry sauce. We had the jellied stuff that plopped out of a can and sliced onto a crystal relish plate. When I started making my own cranberry sauce while working on my first cookbook, the historical recipe that I began with gradually evolved into this conserve.
Makes 3 cups
1-1/2 pounds fresh, ripe cranberries
The zest of 1 orange, cut in fine julienne
1/2 pound (1 cup) demerara or turbinado ("raw") sugar
2-3 tablespoons bourbon
1. Wash cranberries and drain well in a colander. Put 1/3 in a 4-quart stainless steel or enameled pot. Lightly crush with a wooden spoon and add just enough water to barely cover. Turn on heat to medium and bring gently to a boil. Reduce heat to a low and simmer, uncovered, until juices are thick, about 45 minutes. Turn off heat.
2. Pour into a cloth jelly bag (or clean piece of muslin set in a sieve) over a bowl. Force juice through cloth into bowl and discard pulp. Put juice back into pot and add remaining whole berries, orange zest, and sugar.
4. Turn on heat to medium and bring back to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer until berries are tender and transparent, about 45 minutes. Turn off heat and stir in bourbon.

From Sidekick to Hero to Legend
Why I believe DC Comics should eventually allow Bruce Wayne to really "die" off and Dick to take over as Batman.
Filed Under: "
I have been an avid Batman fan all my life and have enjoyed countless tales of about the entire Bat Family. I am currently loving the New 52 reboot and think that the Batman titles (Batman, Detective Comics, Nightwing, Batman and Robin, and Batgirl) are all very well written and doing well. However, I greatly enjoyed reading Dick Grayson as Batman after the Final Crisis where Bruce dies a Heroic death after defeating Darkseid, and well after all these years of Bruce Wayne as the Caped Crusader...I think it is time that he either step down or die and pass on the mantle of Batman. I also believe that the next Batman should be Dick.
Now many CBMers may be thinking this is an absolutely ludicrous idea, but before you write this off here me out. Batman was created to be a symbol, something that could live on even after the original Batman is dead and gone. For years, Bruce has trained others to potentially take over when he is no longer fit to wear the cape and cowl. DC had finally moved past the Bruce Wayne era after Final Crisis only to bring him back again and then relaunch the Universe via The New 52. While I do think the relaunch was a good move, and I hope that they continue the good work, staying away from weird death and revival stories, I think it is time for Bruce to step down. And that is just how he should do it too. He needs to pass on the mantle to Dick rather than be killed in action.
Batman is a tough guy, but he ages just like the rest of us, and with the hell his body has been through he shouldn't be able to last for decades in the line of fire without getting sloppy due to wear and tear. Dick has already stepped up as a great hero in his Nightwing persona, and has proven himself to be a great detective like Bruce. However, his mind isn't as sharp as Bruce which is one reason I think Bruce should still be around to help out much like Alfred has done for Bruce.
While I do think Dick would need to be taught to be more like Bruce in some aspects, he needs to make the cowl his own. Much like he did when he stepped in after Final Crisis. He was a much more acrobatic Batman and fought occasionally with his Escrima sticks. I would still like to see that in his portrayal of the Bat along with the adjustments to the cape and keep his wit while fighting. As Robin and Nightwing he was known to make jokes during battle, and I think it would be great to see Dick bring that into the Batman persona.
This would also give us a chance to see a Batman who makes mistakes. Batman is known for being perfect, always being one step ahead with contingency plans for everything. Dick wouldn't be as prepared so we'd see a more rough around the edges Batman. A little sloppy, but not quite as rough as Year One's Batman. Dick would still have a lot of background experience from his years as Robin and NW.
This role change would also give DC a chance to change Bruce Wayne's role in Gotham. Imagine the good Bruce could do if instead of focusing say 90% of his time as Batman 10% of his time to Wayne Enterprises, he spent 90% on WE and 10% on Batman. Gotham would have a chance to thrive in a way that it had never imagined. They would benefit from having Bruce's mind at the helm of WE free from distractions, except for the occasional mentoring of course, and keeping the Batman to patrol the streets of Gotham.
I know this article is probably a little rough around the edges, and I apologize for that. I hope those of you who have read this enjoyed it. I am open to any constructive criticism you have for any future articles I may post.

Sponsors have been trickling in prizes for this weekend and the courts are free of ice!
The Lafayette Leader (a newspaper) will be releasing an article on Thursday about the riverside Tournament! We should be getting a lot press this weekend!
A huge critical mass is planned for Friday night (see http://www.facebook.com/GreaterLafayetteCriticalMass) and press from local newspapers will be covering that too!
If things keep going this well, bike polo will be illegal!
Lets just hope Doomington remembers the goals for Saturday.
In any case, weather this weekend will be warm (70's), with chance of T-storms.
See you all soon, and drive safe!

Writer's Craft #42 – Probably my last book
Lorne S. Jones is the author of the novel Mighty Oaks, available on Amazon.com. And a cancer patient with a grim prognosis.
From your host, Lynda Williams
If you knew you had months, weeks, or days to live would you still care about writing? Lorne S. Jones does.
Lorne and I both attended the same Writer-Librarian Read Dating event this April at the Vancouver Public Library. I didn't interact with Lorne much at the time. But a few days ago, I was weeding backlogged messages from lists when I spotted the subject line on readdating "Probably my last book". And was humbled by Lorne's message in which he tells the group about his aggressive brain cancer and follows up by urging us to keep writing!
When I asked him if I could share the e-mail on The Writer's Craft, he said yes. You can read it here: Lorne Jones – Probably My Last Book. I also quote, below, from the e-mail in which he gave me his permission.
We might take it for granted that, because we can read, every generation that follows will somehow magically be imbued with that ability. Even a light skim through history tells us otherwise. So many dead languages. So many lost stories. I'll make my plea one more time: all you writers out there, keep at it, no matter how many buckets of cold water are thrown on your dreams. Even in the face of a full fire-hose blast of negativity, your work has value and possibly even the ability to keep the fragile flame of literacy from being dowsed.
Lorne S. Jones
Let's tell Lorne we'll keep the torch alive for him.

Deeply moving. It is good to hear a voice speaking from the perspective of the big picture — not just today's market report, to ebook or not to ebook — but the hereafter of centuries.
When my mother was my age she had been dead for four years. As I make my way through my second half-century, my work becomes even more urgent. Even if I don't manage to get it published, it must at least be written, revised, perfected as much as possible in the hope that it may be preserved after I am gone, discovered, shared. I think many of us write with this in mind, that our work will survive us, will live on and continue to be an active presence in the world after we are gone.
Thank you, Lorne, and yes, if we all keep a candle burning, we can keep the flame going through even the darkest age.
October 17, 2011 10:44 pm
Thanks, everyone, for the kind words of support. I've never really thought of myself as a wise man, or even a very clever one. I've certainly been outmaneuvered and even swindled by many clever types in my life, and it's usually been my own fault. I think it was WC Fields who coined the phrase: "you can't cheat an honest man". During my formative years, every time that one of my buddy's came up with a sure-fire scheme for getting away with something dishonest, it invariably went horribly wrong, whether I participated or not.
So I'm not looking for some magical way to pull my old sack of bones out of this situation, some rule-bending escape from the clutches of the cancer which is rapidly devouring what few working brain cells I've got left (hey, I remember the Sixties, and I was really there).
But there is no way that any of us is going to live forever… physically.
However, there is another type of immortality that is available to each and every one of us who writes. Does the name William Shakespeare ring a bell? How about Wordsworth, Keating or Shelley?
While it is true that there is a very real possibility that ignorance could engulf humanity and the ability to read and write could vanish from our species, and that writers are the first line of defense against that possibility, there is also a form of immortality available to those who keep the fragile flame of literacy burning in the hearts and minds of generations to follow.
A writer of classic novels or pulp fiction, sonnets or limericks is every bit as valuable to the ongoing struggle against illiteracy as the creator of technical reports. And sometimes, like a piece of buoyant wood held down by a heavy weight, it might take quite a while for the importance of your work you surface and be "discovered" for its worth. Don't let that discourage you! Van Gough only sold one painting in his lifetime, and that was to his brother. That is sad, but irrelevant when you take into consideration the impact and power of his work that still resonates today.
Where am I going with this rambling message? To put forth the view that writers, composers of words who either discover new and interesting ways of thinking or else find new ways of stating old yet still valuable points that might otherwise become forgotten it the relentless march of progress, writers are possibly the most valuable commodity that humanity has against the never ending gravitational pull of ignorance that would otherwise see us revert to a bunch of grunting, club-swinging hunter-gatherers.
I'll close by adding an addendum to the old quote: "The pen is mightier than the sword". My addition is: "…provided folks can still read."
Keep writing, everyone, and enticing people to get so excited that they will always want to share your works with folks they know!
Yours truly,
Lorne S. Jones

Two bad seasons is far too many, as far as the Westhill football team is concerned.
From the high point of a Section III Class B title earned in 2009, the Warriors fell back to a place where, two years later, everything seemed to go wrong for head coach Gary Griffo and his charges, from injuries to bad penalties to untimely turnovers.
In 2012, Westhill tried to rise again. With a very young lineup, and despite injuries to several key players, the Warriors went 3-4 and sneaked into the fourth and final Section III Class B playoff spot before a first-round defeat to eventual champion Cazenovia.
Now Westhill wants to take the success the school has found in so many other sports – basketball, lacrosse and baseball – and parlay it into a return to gridiron glory.
"The kids bring a winning tradition into the (football) program," said Griffo. "These kids know how to work hard and they want it pretty bad."
That hard work included a trip to Syracuse University's summer camp. Griffo, who coached in Louisiana in the 1980s, said that off-season work, such as the spring football he witnessed down south, sets the tone for the fall to follow.
Reed Derrenbacker injured his knee last fall and missed time at quarterback, forcing sophomore Richie Easterly into a starting role. Now Derrenbacker's knee has healed and, as a senior, he's expected to lead the charge forward.
"Reed is an excellent passer and great athlete," said Griffo. "He can run, too, and has good passing mechanics."
When the Warriors throw, Derrenbacker has plenty of options to consider. Donovan Whipple, who also missed time in 2012, is back at 100 percent, joining Easterly, senior Jack Centore and sophomore Chase Gedney (son of Syracuse great Chris Gedney) at the receiver spot, while senior captain Brendan Fessinger returns at tight end.
There's also depth in the backfield. Mike Burton, the team's first junior captain since Pat McAnaney back in 2002, and senior captain Chris Brusa give the Warriors a pair of tough, imposing backs. And they won't have to take all the carries, either, since Joe Rainone and Ja-Shai Jamison are capable of stepping in at any time.
Where the Warriors' biggest concern, literally and figuratively, lies is in the offensive line after the graduation of stalwarts Jordan Hicks and Cory Badman.
The size is at the tackle spots, where 260-pound Greg Newton and 270-pound Eddie Kernan will start. Inside, quickness off the snap will key the work of 200-pound lacrosse star Franco Tangredi at center, along with guards Cody Badman (195 pounds) and Ian Haummann (195 pounds).
Traditionally, Westhill has used a 4-3 defensive alignment. Haummann and Ryan Obrist are both lined up at end, flanking Fessinger and Ramy Guiney at the tackle spots.
Part of the leadership that Burton and Brusa provide is as two-way starters, as both will both start at outside linebacker, with Cody Badman patrolling the middle. Jamison and Centore are at cornerback, with Easterly seeing plenty of action on defense as he joins Tyler King at safety.
Much of the Warriors' season, said Griffo, might hinge on how well it does in Friday's opener at Chittenango, who has reached each of the last two sectional finals and won it all in 2011. He added that the team's work ethic and chemistry gives them a great chance to contend for Class B West division honors, and perhaps more.
"With the amount of work they have done, they're clicking right now, and that doesn't happen often at this point in the season," said Griffo.

The world places tremendous importance on the power of value. Our money, our houses and our cars are constantly appreciating or depreciating in value.
But, there are other important things we should place value on – how we value ourselves and how we value others…
Many leaders have approached me asking how best to motivate their team. They may ask how to identify the key motivators for their staff and how to help them find fulfillment in their role. These are all excellent questions to ask.
I believe that the first question to ask is not, 'what motivates my team?'
Rather, 'what do the individuals in my team value?'
From experience, I know that leaders must identify the individual values of their team members before attempting to motivate them.
The below six steps will help leaders to identify their team members' individual values:
- Ask about their top three priorities – who or what are they?
- Recognize that if team members struggle to articulate what they value, they may struggle with feeling valuable.
- Build trust and ensure that your team feels safe with you. Be aware of tone of voice and body language.
- Be discreet when asking about value – your team may not want their vulnerabilities shared as a point of discussion with others.
- Ask your team not only what they want to do in the team, but also who they want to be in the team. Results and positive behaviour change both need to be achieved for lasting success.
- Build a team culture around giving rather than receiving – a good workplace should focus on what you can give rather than what you can get.
- One-on-one time is crucial – busyness can be an enemy of value-building.

Boon is a young company that is committed to creating the most innovative baby gear and keeping it affordable. The founding principle was to deliver a benefit to parents in response to problems they face bringing up their little ones. Hence, the Company was called Boon, which means 'benefit', particularly 'a benefit bestowed in response to a request.' Each one of their products offers a 'boon' to parents by helping to make their everyday lives a bit easier while incorporating great design at an affordable price.
The first product was the Frog Pod Bath Scoop, the design of which was inspired by founder Rebecca Finnell's experience of a messy bath time. Today this product is included in the top 21 most innovative products list by 'Mother and Baby'. Baby Brands Direct is a wholesaler of Boon's range of brightly coloured, fun products that are engaging for both parents and children.
Baby Baths are a vital purchase for new parents looking to bathe their newborn safely in an enjoyable environment. Baby Brands Direct stocks a variety of baths from the 3 in 1 baby bath by Fisher-Price to the portable inflatable bathtub by Munchkin. In addition, the Fisher-Price trusted brand offers a variety of safety features and accessories to be used as baby grows. Browse our wide selection of bath time products available for wholesale here. Discover our product line of baby baths, bath time accessories, hooded towels, bath inserts & supports, toiletries, bath and room thermometers, bath mats, baby grooming essentials and bath water temperature indicators.
Baby Brands Direct works in association with expert names in the industry providing our clients immediate access to the most sought after nursery brands. Our suppliers work closely with paediatricians who endorse using water as a great way to engage with the little one's senses. The more parents want to make bath time engaging the more bath time products sales keep growing. Our clients can shop bath time goods in different shapes, colours and designs from leading international industry brands.
Parents often look to specialist baby and nursery stores for advice and support in caring best and most efficiently for their little ones. In some cases, they are not always familiar with the products available in the industry or which ones will best benefit them. In the case of Boon, the crux of the baby brand is thinking about those time consuming, not so fun chores and presenting eye catching, trendy solutions that make them bearable and a point of interaction with baby and toddler. Their selection of Bath Scoops is a good example of this and the Boon baby products available wholesale at Baby Brands Direct.
A spokesperson from Boon comments, 'We're committed to creating nothing but the most innovative gear and keeping it affordable. Our design studio is always in motion, tackling one parenting challenge after another.' A highly recommended product for retailers to stock, particularly as a gift item, is the Boon nightlight. The product features 3 portable balls with GLO multi-coloured lights that do not get hot as they are non-electronic; a great toddler bedtime bribe!
As a worldwide supplier, Baby Brands Direct has made it convenient for retailers to stock on brands and items that they often have scarce or no access to locally. For instance, Babymoov has introduced innovative inflatable bathtub, perfect for parents looking for a comfortable, safer bath for their baby. From mats that tell you when the water is too hot to T bars that help hold the baby in place. You can choose from the Earth Friendly Baby range offering organic shampoos, body lotions, baby wipers, massage oil and bubble bath. Hooded towels have been a growing hit among retailers and parents.
Our partners, Munchkin, have introduced a line of bath time ducks to help parents check the temperature of their baby's bath, doubling as fun, exciting toys for baby to play with while in the tub. Our range of bath inserts and supports are designed to make bath time easier for parents. We have made available a range of bath time accessory products, from the practical Tommee Tippee and Beaba who are providing you with baby scissors and combs to nail clippers and nose aspirators.

Publisher's comments:
American Mideast Research, is proud to have exclusively published two books by
The Former Egyptian Chief of Staff, General Saad El Shazly, who led his forces across the Suez Canal, to overpower Israeli lines, and capture the once impregnable Bar Lev line.
The Crossing Of The Suez is an inside look by
The Egyptian Chief of Staff, at events leading up to and including the 1973 Arab Israeli war.
The book gives a day to day account of the war, the capture of
The Bar Lev line, the subsequent split between the political and military leadership, and the aftermath of the Israeli penetration through Egyptian lines.
The Crossing of the Suez Canal has been praised by the international press as thought provoking necessary reading. See Book Reviews...

The Arab Military option is a penetrating some time shocking analysis, of the future balance of power in
The Middle East. General Shazly, examines the present and future military capabilities of Israel and the Arab Countries, and analyses them in relation to the historic, political and economic conditions that shape them.
He contends that the Arabs can negotiate a just settlement, only form a position of strength, and explains why political options are not viable, unless backed by Arab military capability.
Shazly demonstrates, that
The Arabs possess the elements necessary to achieve such a goal, and maintains that the balance of power is tilting against Israel despite the appearance to contrary.
Shazly's discussion includes both the weaknesses and strengths in Israel,
and the Arab world. He examines super power politics and
interests... what action, for example, The US might take
if faced with a simultaneous war in Europe and Israel and
what role the rapid deployment force might play?
Shazly concludes by saying. "In demonstrating that The Arab military option is possible, I do not contend that it is necessarily the preferable option, nor that it is the only option. But I do insist that it must never be excluded as a possible option....
If political resolution of the dispute with Israel is to get any where, the military option must march beside it.
The Arabs must understand that it is idle to believe they can persuade Israel to give up in negotiation, what they cannot compel Israel to cede in battle".
Shazly objectively documents his analysis with internationally recognized sources and includes, over fifty tables and charts. Although this book was first published in 1986, it is still considered an important source on
The Arab-Israeli conflict.

A 22,000-ton whaling ship steams into a broken plain of white, glimmering ice during the howling fury of an Antarctic gale. What madness drives the ship forwards, deeper and deeper into the ice until its jagged edges hold her fast? Marooned amidst the pitiless, frozen wastes, the crew of the Southern Cross make a desperate attempt to survive against the odds.
Hammond Innes was born in Sussex, in 1913. He wrote 30 international best sellers, all of which are now being reissued. It was in the early '50s, with books like The Lonely Skier, Campbell's Kingdom, The White South and The Wreck of the Mary Deare, all of them filmed, that he achieved international fame. His final novel was Delta Connection.
©1977 Hammond Innes (P)2013 Audible Ltd
Compelling -- suspenseful -- entertaining
Although a good storyline, because of the subject matter (stranded in the Antarctic) it was self-limiting. However, that said, the author was able to make you feel isolated and lost in a cold barren wasteland along with his characters.
All of them were compelling.
No particular point.....there were several where you felt the desperation and isolation.
The business relationships and the motives of some of these characters was a little confusing at times.....However, once the race for survival started, the storyline took off.
"Escapist comfort food"
Yes it reads and feels a bit dated but it is a fun read well performed. Good clean prose with an entertaining plot. Makes for a welcome change from reading authors with too many stylistic flourishes. Like having a good burger after eating too many snooty foodie dinners.
"White South"
This story started off very well, was full of interest and had considerable pace until the characters left the ships and became marooned on the ice. From this point on I'm afraid it went donwhill and became a bit of a 'chore'.
Husband really looked forward to listening to this and wasn't disappointed. Full of daring do and a mans got to do what a mans got to do. Will be downloading the rest of Mr Innes books. Great narration too :)
Descriptive without too much violence and an easy read at bed time.
Hammond Innes is a master story teller and in this book he is at his absolute best and very well narrated by Hugh Kermode. I would recommend this book to anyone interested in sheer adventure stories, and is ideal as an audible book.
