What's your favorite thing about June? It is so much fun to attend the many weddings, graduation, Father's Day and other special celebrations. We have been as busy as can be around here with the Kimmswick Strawberry Festival, Kids Karaoke, Father's Day Car Show, and more. In all the hustle and bustle, you may have missed the all-important holidays of Strawberry Rhubarb Pie Day on June 9 and Strawberry Short Cake Day on June 14! I had a wonderful visit with my good friend Tim Ezell on Fox2 News to share a few delicious treats! If you missed it, check it out, but prepare to be hungry afterward.
If you did miss out on celebration of those days, it is not too late. I would love to share a recipe from our cookbook Seasoned with Love. It is sure to delight your taste buds, whether you make it yourself or order it from our bakery!
Strawberry Rhubarb Pie
3 cups fresh strawberries, sliced
2 cups fresh rhubarb, chopped
1 ¼ to 1 ½ cups sugar
¼ cup cornstarch
½ cup water
1 TBS. butter, cut into pieces
Cook all ingredients, except the butter, until thick and bubbly. Set aside to cool while making pie crust.
Pour cooled filling into bottom pie crust. Dot top of filling with pieces of butter. Cover pie with a top crust. Seal and crimp the edges of crust. Cut steam vents in top pie crust. Brush top with a slightly beaten egg white. Sprinkle with sugar. Bake at 350 degrees for 45 minutes or until crust is golden brown.
Gloria's Pie Crust
2 cups flour
1 tsp. salt
1/2 cup butter-flavored Crisco
5 to 6 TBS. cold water
Cut flour into butter-flavored Crisco. Add salt and stir in just enough water to make a stiff dough. Knead slightly together. Chill dough before using. Divide dough in half. Roll out top and buttom crusts for a 9″ medium pie pan.
I do so hope that this is the recipe you have been dreaming of…and always remember that Dreams Really Do Come True!
All My Love,

- Body discovered in Pontypridd property identified as Tracey Woodford, 47
- She is thought to have been attacked in woodland before being taken to flat
- She was 'liked and loved by all' and would 'help anyone', family said
- Man named locally as Christopher May, 50, was arrested over the murder
The family of Tracey Woodford (above), whose body was found dismembered in a flat in Pontypridd, Wales, have described her as 'very kind-hearted' and 'selfless'
The family of a woman whose body was found dismembered in a flat in Wales have described her as 'very kind-hearted' and 'selfless'.
Tracey Woodford is believed to have been attacked in woodland in Pontypridd on Tuesday before being taken back to the property of a man she is thought to have left a town centre pub with, police said.
The 47-year-old's body was discovered with 'massive injuries' at the flat around 3pm on Friday afternoon, prompting police to launch a murder investigation.
A man named locally as Christopher May, 50, has been arrested. Police confirmed yesterday they had been given an extra 36 hours to question the suspect.
Her family today paid tribute to Ms Woodford, who was last seen by them around 12.45pm on April 21 in Rhydyfelin.
They said: 'Tracey was liked and loved by all of her family and friends. She was very kind-hearted and a selfless person who would go out of her way to help anyone.
'Tracey was a gentle person who would not hurt anyone and she will be dearly missed by all who knew her.
'We are thankful for all the support we have received to date.'
They added that they would like everyone to respect their wishes for privacy and leave them alone to grieve.
Ms Woodford was reported missing on Wednesday and her body was discovered after police received information she was with a man at the Skinny Dog pub for around two hours that night. She is believed to have left the premises with him.
A police spokesman said: 'Police officers then visited the suspect's address and, following a search of the property, discovered a body. The suspect was arrested on suspicion of murder.

'A 50-year-old man remains in police custody and is assisting police with our enquiries.'
After discovering the body police cordoned off an area surrounding nearby Pontypridd Rugby Club's Sardis Road stadium and officers were seen searching the undergrowth.
At least four South Wales Police vans and one helicopter took part in the operation.
Detective Superintendent Paul Hurley described the events surrounding Ms Woodford's death as 'tragic'.
In a press conference he said: 'The events have had a profound effect on her family and the wider community, especially given the harrowing circumstances of her death.
'There are well established communities in the South Wales Valleys. I know those communities will rally around Tracey's family.'

He added that police want to speak to anybody who thinks they may have information that can help the investigation.
They are particularly interested in those who noticed anything suspicious near Andrews Court, Rickards Street, or near the rugby ground.
'No matter how insignificant the information may seem, we would like people to contact us,' he said.
'We have a team of detectives and the support of specialist resources working on this inquiry and while we understand it will alarm the community, this is an isolated incident and we do have somebody in custody.'
Police are now appealing for anyone with information to come forward. Above, an officer near the scene
Neighbours at the flat complex are shocked at the latest updates. One said: 'It is just too shocking to think about. You dread to think about that poor woman and what she went through'

One said: 'It is just too shocking to think about. You dread to think about that poor woman and what she went through.'
Another added: 'Tracey had her problems over the years but she was loved by her family. No-one deserves to die like this. It doesn't bear thinking about.'
Reverend Michael Gable, a local vicar, also paid tribute.
He said: 'It's a tragic situation. The community will be upset and concerned by this news. We send our thoughts and prayers to those involved.'
A post-mortem was due to take place today.

text: Overall the hand cream is something I did enjoy using. It has an amazing scent! Just thinking about it, makes me crave it. It's very herbal and just lovely! Wow. What a description. I used the cream over two to three months every night, but I'm not sure if it's worth spending €23 on. I found that it did keep my hands moisturised but not so much that people were commenting on it, then again, I was only applying it once a day. Otherwise I do think there are cheaper alternatives that will do a better job at keeping your hands moisturised but this one is a little luxury to put on before bed, and just inhale.

My wife and I have been considering getting a a dog for a long while now and the Great Pyrenees appeals to us for some many reasons. I myself fell in love with my neighbors Pyr while growing up.
Aside from all we have read and researched there is one aspect which I have found little information and which I am curious, "Do Great Pyrenees make good running companions?"
Some things I've read make me believe they do and others things have me thinking they may not.
Pyr as Runners? I've read Pyrs' have good endurance and move gracefully for a large dog. I assume they can navigate rough mountainous terrain without much difficulty having adapted to the Pyrenees mountains and would therefore be excellent trail runners. Could a Pyr, being a large dog, run at a hard pace for an extended time say anywhere from 1-2 hours, 3-5 times a week [at full maturity]. I used to run with my lab and understand the need for an available water source or carrying extra water for the both of us. However, my main concern would be putting to much strain on a dog that size? Anyone have experience running distance with their Pyr?
Unleashed?? I see that an unleashed Pyr is a gone Pyr but does that pertain to running as well (My lab was clued to my hip as long as I was moving, he'd wander if we took a break but never to far)? I run at a fairly fast pace so a Pyr would not have much time to wonder if they didn't want to risk loosing contact with me.
Would a Pyr wonder off to patrol an area and separate himself from me or would his protective instinct kick in and stay with me to see that I am safe? Could I leash train him as a puppy to run with me to the point where a leash wouldn't be necessary?
What if we encountered other people or a more likely an issue, other people's dogs? Would a Pyr ignore them and continue to run with me? Or would a Pyr be likely to challenge?
To clarify, in general day to day running I would have my Pyr leashed (as I would recommend for anyone with any breed of dog), however some of the remote trails require scampering [using my hands] while others are narrow or have dangerous footing where I would want to minimize any risk entangling myself in the leash. In these situations it would be important for me to run with my hands free. Just curious if any Pyr owners have been in similar situations or have taken their Pyr running without a leash and whether or not this can work in specific situations?
Wild life on the trail? I currently live in Colorado and do a lot of trail running in remote area's, some of which may have bear, bobcat, coyote, and mountain lion. I run alone and certainly wouldn't want to encounter any of the wild life in the middle of nowhere (luckily no encounters yet) but they are a real danger esp. to lone runners. I'd like to have the added security of a Pyr along side but not the additional worry he will run off the trail after a "potential" threat.
Bears for example are not likely to attack people, so I wouldn't want my Pyr to go bounding after one. The general situation where a bear might attack a human is where I would be running on a trail, turn the corner and startle the bear. I'd want the Pyr with me, and issue a warning, scare the bear off or fight it off together if need be [highly unlikely but I think it would be hard to leave your dog fighting a bear].
Also I would want the Pyr to stay close for its heightened perception [keen sight, smell, etc] maybe warn me if a mountain lion were above in the rocks with a growl etc rather then wandering off and putting itself in harms way.
"Breeder?" Would my hopes to find a running companion in a Pyr be something I mention to a Breeder? Would certain puppies be more inclined? Male vs female? Or even certain parentage?
I am more speculating what I would hope to find [or at least train] in a running companion with a Pyr. There is little material out there on specifics on this matter and anybody with a Pyr who has some personal experiences relating to encounters in the wild, running, or just general thoughts based on other experiences with Pyrs, I'd really appreciate it.

With 6 games remaining in the Florida Panthers 2013/2014 regular season schedule, Scottie Upshall leads the team with a breakout year and career-high 35 points. While Upshall is playing great this season, if you compare his numbers against the rest of the league his stock drops to 172nd overall in the points department.
This is the type of offensive production Panthers fans have been subjected to in recent memory. Besides maybe Olli Jokinen, the Florida Panthers haven't had a single legitimate offensive superstar wear their jersey since the good old days of Pavel Bure at the turn of the century.
To compensate for the lack of firepower on offense, over the years the Cats have consistently stuck a bunch of hard-nosed outcasts and weathered veterans together to hold down the offensive fort while Fanthers hope their draft picks can develop into NHL stars before new management guts the team.
Although we have yet to draft an NHL superstar, players like Scott Gomez, Ed Jovanovski, Krys Barch and Tomas Kopecky have been making a living in South Florida for two decades. That's why it isn't a huge surprise they own the lowest power play percentage in the league at the moment of this writing.
But the fact that these same gritty character guys, the defensively responsible guys, the wily veterans, the ones who lack the offensive fortitude to put the puck in the net, these grinders and penalty killers — are also the worst penalty killers in the league — just makes me wonder how we got this bad?
It's no secret that the Panthers have hung their pride on some lesser talented NHL players, a group of hard-working, high energy, blue-chipping, penalty killers that work their butts off to compensate for the lack of offensive ability. So on the offensive end of things it's been like watching the darkness around the star trying to be the light.
But can anyone explain how it's just as dark on the defensive side of things?
For a quick recap, here's a few snippets of what we've been sold regarding the quality of players and penalty killers:
- Jesse Winchester, "he's earned his keep with the Panthers by being hard-nosed with the puck as well as being one of the team's most dependable penalty killers".
- Tomas Kopecky, "he's counted on in the much-improved penalty-kill unit, where his average 1:57 ice time is third most among forwards behind Jesse Winchester and Marcel Goc".
- Marcel Goc, "he hasn't been a big-time point producer but is a guy who can add talent at even-strength and on the penalty kill, where his 2:17 per game this season has led Florida."
- And Mike Weaver, "He's just a battler and never gives up on a play," said Panthers forward Jesse Winchester, an integral part of the PK unit along with Shawn Matthias, Dmitry Kulikov, Drew Shore and Marcel Goc."He sends a great message to the rest of the guys, not only on the PK, but on the team. Someone who's willing to sacrifice their body every night and doesn't get a lot of recognition for it." Weaver has built a successful 12-year career out of being one of the best Pkers in the NHL."
But the list goes on and on and backwards for twenty years.
If a much-improved penalty kill unit has "much-improved" yet still the worst penalty kill unit in the league, maybe we should no longer strive to be penalty killers? I'm sure Panthers new owner, Vinny Viola, is thinking the same thing as he stares at his brand new sinking ship.
Although we may only be experiencing repercussions of previous ownership, with the departure of long-time team President Michael Yormark earlier this month, and then last weeks sudden news that Panthers General Manager Dale Tallon fired Assistant GM, Mike Santos, 9 games before the season's end so he could take the team in "different directions", signal large ripples raining down from the front office.
Whether or not it's a step in the right direction remains to be seen, but from the looks of it there's nowhere else to look but up.
Perhaps this is Viola's key opening the gate and setting free all the hard nosed grinders who can't score goals or kill penalties? Maybe this is the sound of the trumpet signaling the end of an era – with players Shawn Matthias, Marcel Goc, and Mike Weaver all departing at the trade deadline.
Panthers fans, I know this might sound crazy… but I don't think this is a time to be afraid. This is cause for celebration. It looks like we're ditching the penalty killer code written into the blood-line of this organization. Now that Vinny Viola is in town, it looks like we're ready to start supplanting our roster for some real NHL quality.
It makes perfect sense, too. Because if Viola's gonna make the Florida Panthers a great product, he's gonna have to get some better ingredients than the one's the previous owner left in the fridge.
So Fanthers, don't think twice it's alright, because it appears that we may be on the cusp of creating a better team with a higher upside by ditching all the penalty killers on a team full of the worst penalty killers in the league.

Four days in Kyushu
We had a string of national holidays in Japan last week so my friend Aiko and I decided to hop on the ferry and head south to Kyushu.
One of my favourite things about Japan is how easy it is to get around without a car. We stood on the edge of an active volcano, sampled the nightlife of a pulsing city and relaxed in a town famous for its hot springs. All made possible by Japan's extremely efficient and very reliable network of trains, buses and ferries.
The first leg of the journey took us from southern Shikoku to northern Kyushu. The two-hour ferry ride was uneventful, aside from being swarmed by a group of rowdy junior high school boys hell-bent on showing off their mad English skillz.
They'd consult with each other in Japanese and whisper the words in English until one boy would be brave enough to shout out "I am crazy!" or "I like soccer!" and then the pack would dissolve into hysterical laughter. (It's a testament to how cute Japanese junior high school boys are that, even after nine months of it, I still find this sort of thing utterly endearing.)
The only other thing about the ferry ride worth mentioning was how much it reminded me of crossing the Georgia Strait between Vancouver and Victoria (minus the three-hour sailing waits). There was no White Spot on board but the scenery outside the ferry windows was strikingly similar.
After we got off the ferry, we boarded a train that took us into the heart of Aso National Park. As soon as we arrived in Aso, we dumped our bags in a locker and waited for a bus to take us up into the mountains to see the park's prime attraction -- an active volcano.
Two older Japanese men wearing crumpled suits and stinking of sake stumbled over to where we were standing and struck up a conversation with us. One of the men was excited to learn we lived on Shikoku Island and even more excited when he found out Aiko lived in the same town he grew up in. He disappeared for a while and when he returned, he thrust half a dozen chocolate bars and two ice cream cones in our hands.
It may sound sweet but it was actually kind of creepy. As we licked our ice cream cones, the two men kept staring at Aiko's ample bosom and telling us how pretty we were. (Seriously, though. Why am I such a magnet for dirty old men? Why can't I attract clean young men?)
When the bus finally pulled into the station, I dragged Aiko aside and whispered, "Okay. We're going to let those guys on the bus first. We'll wait until they sit down and then we'll sit as far away from them as possible." But they never did board the bus. They just stood on the platform waving to us as the bus left the station.
The bus switchbacked up a winding mountain road and dropped us off near the mouth of the volcano 45 minutes later. We walked on a spectacular path that ran along the edge of the dramatic crater.
Once we reached the mouth of the volcano, we joined the masses posing for pictures along the guardrail. Earlier, Aiko had told me her secret for looking 10 pounds lighter on camera, "Just twist your body sideways and lift your chin up."
But instead of making me look thin, it just made me look stiff and slightly deranged.
We hiked around the volcano for a couple of hours before heading back down and checking into our hostel for the night. I didn't really know what to expect since I had never stayed in a hostel before.
I assumed hostels were full of obnoxious 20-somethings trying to one-up each other with tales of their travels. They'd go out drinking and talking about how great they were until 2 a.m. when they'd come crashing into the dorm room, slamming doors, turning on lights, playing bongo drums and vomiting over the side of the bunk bed.
It turned out my fears were completely unfounded. We stayed at three different hostels and each one of them was clean, comfortable and quiet. Our roommates were lovely young women who were all in bed way before midnight. And not a bongo drum in sight!
From Aso, we hopped a train heading north to Fukuoka, the largest city in Kyushu. We timed our arrival to coincide with the city's Dontaku Festival, which promised lots of music and dancing. The highlight of the festival was supposed to be the parade. But it turned out to be little more than dozens of high school marching bands parading through the streets for four hours.
The next day we went to Beppu, which bills itself as the hot spring capital of Japan. We were a little confused by this sign:
We figured it out as soon as we rounded the corner and saw people dipping their feet in one of the hot springs. Suddenly "hot spring of a leg" made perfect sense.
In Beppu, Aiko guided me through my first onsen experience (that's a whole other blog post). I didn't mind being naked with a bunch of other naked people. And I enjoyed soaking in a hot tub of water. But I wasn't completely sold on the whole public bathing experience. Why pay money to have a shower and a bath with a whole bunch of other people when you can do the same thing for free in the privacy and comfort of your own home?
We spent one night in Beppu before catching the ferry back to Shikoku yesterday. Unfortunately, I don't have any pictures of the ferry ride back home because I spent most of the trip curled up in the fetal position trying not to vomit as the boat rode over giant roller coaster waves.
I don't know what made me feel more nauseous: the roiling sea or the sound of people retching all over the ferry. It was so bad that the bathroom sinks were clogged with vomit. Everyone was splayed out on the floor. Old women were holding handkerchiefs to their foreheads.
But other than that, it was a great trip.

Largest forest concession in the Congo Basin receives FSC certification
The IFO concession covers 1.16 million hectares. This brings the total FSC-certified area in the Republic of Congo to 1.7 million hectares and to 4.8 million hectares in the entire Congo Basin.
IFO was one of the FSC certification pioneers in Central Africa, passing its first audit in 2009. It subsequently lost its certificate, not by direct fault but because FSC dissociated from IFO's parent company Danzer, following allegations that another former subsidiary in neighboring Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) had infringed on the human and traditional rights of forest communities.
In order to be reinstated, Danzer worked with expert international organizations to strengthen its conflict management procedures and practices as per conditions stipulated by FSC. After it reassociated in August 2014, third party Rainforest Alliance evaluated IFO according to the FSC standards, assessing the environmental, social and economic aspects of its forest management.
"We recognize the great efforts Danzer has undertaken in order to improve and meet the high FSC standards," said Daniel Tiveau, WWF's Regional Forest Program Coordinator in the Congo Basin. "FSC remains the only available credible certification system in the Congo Basin, especially for countries with weak governance. It is also increasingly becoming a tool to improve forest management."
FSC-certified concessions currently represent about 10% of all logging concessions in the Congo Basin. WWF strongly encourages other companies in the region to follow IFO's good example and get their operations FSC certified.
"This is a good way to show their buyers that they are serious producers," said Tiveau. "The FSC certificate also reduces the amount of due diligence required of importers in Europe, who, under the European Timber Regulation (EUTR), have to show that they have done their utmost to ensure the wood is not illegal. We encourage buyers of wood to demand that it is FSC certified."
The IFO concession is home to more than 5,000 people, of whom about 40% are indigenous, semi-nomadic.
Tiveau added that "well-managed forest concessions also provide important habitat for wildlife, such as forest elephants." As the Congo Basin is a hotbed for poaching, WWF strongly urges IFO and other logging companies in the region to enforce strict anti-poaching rules."

The iPhone X Cases Collection
Simple, unique & protective phone case.
Our Traveler case is everything you need for your phone. We've made it our mission to produce the most unique and original phone cases you've ever seen. We love using natural materials like wood and seashell to create small pieces of art for your phone. We worked hard to find the perfect balance of a protective case and a minimal feel and we think you're going to love it!
How protective is it?A Carved Phone Case isn't just a pretty face. The outer rubberized shell on each of our cases will keep your phone safe and protected from day to day drops and bumps. We worked hard to find the perfect balance of a protective case and a minimal feel.
We could put a fancy badge here, or make up some snazzy name for our "exclusive" technology, but we think there is one simple way to answer this question.
Almost everyone who works at Carved uses one of our cases on their personal phones. We didn't just design this case to sell it to you, we designed it to use it ourselves.
Completely Unique!
We love working with natural materials because each finished case we make is unique. The grain pattern will react beautifully to lighting changes. The product you receive may have a slightly different pattern than what is pictured. It will be one of a kind.
Natural Feel & Finish
Our finishing process is non-toxic and maintains a natural look and feel to the material. This is an amazing finish that ensures your new case will look great for years to come. Our finish is very hard and will protect the back of your phone against most scratches.
Why do some photos look different?
Our products are made using natural materials which will never be exactly the same and will react to lighting changes. Every case will have a different and unique pattern. We do our best to photograph a variety of grain patterns and lighting conditions to give you the best idea what our product will look like. We love the changing nature of real materials! Your case will look different in the sun than it will inside your house or car. That is what makes our products so beautiful and unique!

Great product
I actually bought my boyfriend one first about a year ago (found through etsy). Really liked his. So decided to get one myself. Really enjoyed the colors and look of this case so decide to get it. These cases seem sturdy without being bulky. Definitely would refer a friend to carved! Very good products. The packing it comes in is also really nice. P.s wish I could add a photo to the review
Beautiful but I think XR needs more protection & a stand
I upgraded from an iPhone 6 to an iPhone XR in something of a hurry and ordered the Half Dome Print to go along with it. But before the case arrived, I began to discover just how different the XR is from the 6. Surface area is 23% more, weight is 50% heavier, and of course cost is nearly 200% greater. Gradually I realized I was going to need a case with more protection, as well as a stand so I don't have to hold the dang thing as much. I decided to return the Carved case after it arrived. When it arrived, however I found the print is even more beautiful in person than in the web images, and the ridging on the sides solves the slippery-case issue I had with my previous Carved case. It hurts to have to send it back. If Apple goes back to making reasonably-sized and reasonably-priced phones again, I hope Carved will take me back in.
Awesome phone case!!
My wife bought me this case for Christmas and I am more than impressed with it! I have been very excited to show it off to my family and everyone's reaction to how good it looks has been evident. I proposed to my wife in Yosemite, so to have this picture on my phone case with me every day is such a neat thing to have! This is actually my second carved phone case and the first one held up great so of course I expect this one to do the same. By far this is the coolest phone case I have ever owned!!
Highly recommend!
All the cases Carved makes are beautiful. I had a hard time picking one! I ultimately decided on this case with no regrets. It's beautiful, good quality, and ethically made. I don't plan to need another case anytime soon, but when I do, I'll get the joy of picking another Carved case!
Beautiful and slim.
The phone case is beautiful, slim and protective on the sides of the phone. A bit of an adjustment from a silicone case since the plastic is slightly less grippy. The only downfall is that the case does not have a lip on the front to protect the screen when it is laying face down or dropped and lands face down. Overall a good phone case.

Gary's Dream About The Red Plague!
June, 2006
My husband, Gary, came to me today telling me that he dreamed of the coming Red Plague. YAHUVEH told him that it IS coming and coming VERY SOON! Gary had no clue that this had already been prophesied and so I knew it was from YAHUVEH.
He dreamed of the red mist coming from the sky and people were running hysterically everyone trying to get away from it, but there was nothing they could do. Once it touched them, it was too late and it would begin to make them sick and then ultimately eat their flesh til there was nothing left. Gary said, we were watching all this in the dream and when he saw the red mist coming our way, he yelled for YAHUSHUA and it did not touch us.
YAHUVEH said audibly in the dream....Beware, for the red plague IS coming soon and very soon! Many warnings were given and were NOT heeded. The people WILL see that I, YAHUVEH AM also a GOD of wrath.
I believe ha Satan tried to silence us so that we would not tell what YAHUVEH has warned! We had our other ferrets out playing and suddenly there was a banging at the door. We couldn't open the door until we had the ferrets spotted and safe from escaping outside.
When we finally got the door open, a fire was blazing on our porch. Somehow a big easy chair we had sitting out there had caught on fire! We would have never known had YAHUVEH and YAHUSHUA had not been protecting us!!! There was NO damage to our home at all!

MARLBOROUGH – One of the city's oldest and most historic homes will receive much-needed improvements this spring to prevent damage to the more than 325-year-old property.
The Marlborough Historical Society, which occupies the 1688 Peter Rice Homestead, recently received a $4,200 grant that will fund a portion of the work to reslope the home's yard. The yard currently slopes toward the foundation and when it rains, the basement floods, said society President Janet Licht. The home is on the National Historic Register.
Crews this spring will dig up the yard, regrade the land and build a drain to direct water away from the property, said Bob Kane, society vice president.
"That's to help it structurally," Kane said of the project. "The home is safe. Our homestead is very, very old. We have a lot of structural problems with the place because of its age and years and years of wear and tear."
The work is expected to cost $5,000 to $6,000. Kane anticipates the society will pay the difference from funds raised at this year's annual Festival of Trees and calendar sales.
"We'll have to throw that money in ourselves," he said. "We'll have enough to do that project."
The society has overseen a handful of improvements to the home in recent years, including adding columns and installing a dehumidifier in the basement, replacing a boiler and building a shed to store some of the society's heavier relics, many of which were in the attic.
"It's always a constant battle on and on," said Kane. "It's tough to keep up with an old, old house. It's an uphill battle."
Located at 377 Elm St., the home housed six generations of the Rice family and was later converted into apartments for soldiers returning home from World War II. The home was sold to Honeywell Corp. and deeded to the Marlborough Historical Society in the 1960s.
The home houses the society's historical memorabilia. Residents can schedule tours by contacting the society.
"It's part of our history," said Licht. "It's part of what Marlborough is all about."
Kane stressed the importance of ensuring the home is in good condition so future generations can appreciate it.
"I think it's very important on our part," he said. "We're here to preserve history, not get rid of it."

OK, yea, that first post went off the rails quite a bit. I had intended a bit of an intro, and it quickly turned into a rant and I just went with it. At one point, I was just streaming consciousness to such an extent that I didn't do manual saves as I usually do; and after about 30 minutes…blank, and no WP auto-saves I could find. That pissed me off even more. Luckily, a few tricks later, I was able to recover what I'd written.
What I wished to convey was a short bit about how "health" or "healthy" is so often used metaphorically (at best), to loaded, just-so assertions (at worst). Like: hearthealthywholegrains or healthylowcarblifestyle. On the political side—which was the purpose of the intro that turned into full-on rant—it's healthyeconomy, healthyjobmarket, healthystockmarket. And the list goes on.
It's all bullshit. It's all manipulative. It's all designed to get you to think: oh, this is healthy!!! (now, turn off brain and don't think).
The simple fact is that you don't really know how healthy or unhealthy anything is, excepting outright poison, fire, drowning, falling from heights, tangling with a bear or African cat. You can know that certain things are sustaining: drinking water, eating real food. But can you say with certainty how much different indulging in neolithic foodstuffs 50% of the time, or 5% of the time, makes a huge difference? And if so, how much? And how does it weigh on your overall sense of well being? …Hell, there are still tons of people out there asserting that the minuscule amounts of n-6 PUFA you get from CAFO beef is unhealthy because it's a bad ratio with n-3.
Here's all you can do: Make Reasonable and Educated Guesses. Then CHOOSE.
You can pay attention to how you feel, and other makers of a "healthy" body. By and large, if you feel bad all the time no matter what you eat or drink, something is amiss and you may not be optimally healthy—whatever that means.
So how about a different paradigm? Here's my modest proposal: view everything as a choice on a spectrum from bad to better to better and better.
To return to what was going to be my intro, democracy and socialism (there's no important distinction) is better than totalitarian dictatorship. I think anarchy of the mind is a better choice still. Pretend and act as though you don't need all the handouts, tax incentives, deductions, entitlements, "rights," and so on, doled out by means of forcing others to pay for all that rot on your behalf.
…Being pathetic is surely not "healthy." …I'm just guessing.
You're going to indulge yourself, because you live in a world of plenty and evolution prepared you for a life of scarcity. A-priori. It's all around you everywhere and it's enticing and very few will want to resist. Moreover, that desire changes with age. Being ripped is certainly a 20-something value (I was 20-something; I know: pussy). But having a bit of flab at 50…but a shaper, more tuned, critical, educated, and experienced mind as a tradeoff? I don't begrudge those who want to have both and some will, but is that a "health" debate, or a debate of preference and tradeoffs, where "health" is just a diversion and talking point?
I get criticized all the time for maintaining 15-20 pounds of excess fat at nearly 52 (after losing 60 pounds of it). But I sit and write a lot. I drink too much (helps the writing). Liquid calories fuck up fat loss in that 10-20 pound range. I know this. But it's also a tradeoff. Am I "unhealthy?" I doubt it. I also know I make better eating choices than about 95% out there, perhaps more.
Everyone needs to relax. This is about good, better, better to better choices (there is no "best"). But it's pretty easy to know that "this is better than that." Go with better, most situations. And this works over the entire spectrum. No matter what menu you see before you, you don't have to go: "there's nothing Paleo." You can go: "I'm hungry, I really would like to eat, this looks like the better choice."
I'll leave you with a better indulgence, all yooz who crave a grain indulgence now and then. How about start with a classic substrate—a French baguette, made with plain white refined flower and water, basically—but as all French know, the water and the minerals in the water make the baguette.
Avec Beurre
Jambon Blanc
Et Cornichon
Lil' open facers with a bit 'O onion
So there you go folks. Philosophy, practicality, and a bit of better choices.

New Orleans' French Quarter does indeed imply beer, beer, and might I add, more beer. And years back, it was well-stocked with fresh suds from the Jackson Brewery, kitty-corner from Jackson Square on Decatur Street. According to Wikipedia:
"Constructed in 1891, it originally was the central brewery for Jax Beer, and in the 1960s was the 10th-largest brewery in the country. But in the 1970s, the company owning the brewery went bankrupt, and in the 1980s the building was purchased and turned into space for shops and restaurants."
Aw, nuts. Another casualty of modernity. Whattaya gonna do? I drew the lovable old hulk.

Posted by Larry Venter
Senior Director of Retail Solutions for Microsoft Worldwide
Just under a year ago I was fortunate enough to do a tour of Lakeside Park Primary in Vryheid, KwaZulu-Natal. During that tour the headmaster told me of the struggle that the foundation phase children have in learning English – in fact I recall something he said; "when the children stopped using English on the playground, their English results suffered". I left the school a few hours later thinking about how we could do something to improve literacy acquisition. Over the next few months I set about researching PC educational games and the edutainment market, but it was really at the launch of the San Diego Microsoft Store that the penny dropped. At the opening, in June of last year, I saw Kinect™ for Xbox 360® being played by children and parents outside the store and I recall thinking – that's the perfect medium for learners! It's fun, its interactive, it's in English and it's highly collaborative too!
Momentum kicked in with Microsoft's Live@Edu team funding the study, which engaged local educational technology experts, NGO SchoolNet SA, to develop the teacher training materials and conduct training, and also to review, select and purchase appropriate games, install the devices and security systems and manage an independent evaluator, Mindset. Eight teachers from Lakeside Park Primary, a small school in the remote district of Vryheid in rural KwaZulu-Natal, were trained and their classrooms equipped with the interactive Xbox and Kinect gaming platforms and security.
I have learnt that in education there are two levers that can be pulled to improve the learning experience – time with teacher, and the quality of the teacher. In the early days of this program we started seeing how teachers were able to use Kinect to drive heightened engagement in the classrooms. One teacher is quoted saying that "the level of interaction I saw on day one would normally take us three to four months to get to". In my mind that equates to more time with the teacher!
We have also seen teachers use the training we provided to start providing creative solutions – or learning opportunities – that benefit the children and improve the teachers delivery too. In the first week we saw a teacher use "avatar creation" as a way to introduce the learners to life skills – by allowing each to design their own avatar. We also saw a teacher use bowling as a numeracy exercise, and even the use of "kinectimals" as a way of constructing sentences – in my mind all that helps to develop the quality of the teachers delivery.
Studies of gaming in education show that learners really engage when teachers design their lesson activities around the topics in games, simply due to the added stimulus. With Kinect, you can play a variety of sport, edutainment and instructive games using body movements and voice. Sensors replicate your motions via an on-screen avatar – your 'mirror image'. Change was afoot from the word 'go'.
Today we officially announced the program in South Africa and it has drawn a lot of excitement from national and local educators and politicians. My hope is that we can use the findings of this program and develop solutions that will continue to transform the teaching and learning experience across Africa.

A week before the July 4 holiday, a gallon of regular gasoline in the Chicago area costs an average of $4.02, according to AAA Chicago -- about a nickel less than a week ago.
In the past two weeks, gasoline prices have declined, said Patrick DeHaan, a petroleum analyst at GasBuddy.com. Earlier this month, prices spiked because of turmoil in Iraq and because of power disruption at a Citgo oil refinery in Lemont.
In the city, the average price for a gallon of regular unleaded was $4.24, down from $4.28 a week ago.
Despite the recent decline, prices remain elevated, DeHaan said. That's partly because of the continuing unrest in Iraq. Also, oil pipelines from the Gulf Coast...

Each one of these is hand cut, carved and polished and is a time consuming process, and are priced as such to reflect this. However this does mean that I can make minor tweaks and changes to the piece to make it more comfortable for you shape wise, just contact me through the site with what you would like and I'll be happy to discuss options with you.
These can be made in a limited range of other materials, please email me if there is a specific material that you are after or if you would like a list.

Reusable Turkey Timer
Click Image for Gallery
End the guess work! This pop-up timer tells you when your turkey or chicken is roasted.
This pop-up timer is reusable up to 500 times. Simply stick into the thickest part of the breast. When the meat reaches 167 degrees, the timer starts to pop out. (In our opinion, this is the perfect temperature.) When the timer is all the way out, the bird is well done, 185 degrees.
" Now you'll know when your chicken or turkey is perfectly roasted."

COURSE Description
The definition of a smart object is a product that enhances interaction between people and other objects. The ubiquity of embedded computing has redefined the role of form in material culture, leading to the creation of artifacts that communicate well beyond their static physical presence to create ongoing dialogues with both people and each other. This course will explore the rich relationship among people, objects and information through a combination of physical and digital design methods. Beginning with an examination of case studies, students will gain a sense of the breadth of product design practice as it applies to smart objects. Through a combination of lectures and hands-on studio exercises, students will investigate all aspects of smart object design, including expressive behaviors (light, sound and movement), interaction systems, ergonomics, data networks and contexts of use. The course will culminate in a final project that considers all aspects of smart object design within the context of a larger theme.
Course objectives
In this course, students will explore theories of product design as they apply to both physical and virtual systems. They will learn techniques for crafting product behaviors and develop strategies for using tangible experience prototypes as part of the design process. Students will gain an understanding of physical interaction, networked objects, product personality, information displays, ergonomics, haptics and the role of smart objects in contemporary design practice, while learning methods for testing and communicating new ideas in physical/digital design.
In this course students will learn:
How to develop design-actionable insights through dialogue with users, clients, observation of human behavior, and market analysis.
How to invent and define product ideas, features and benefits.
How to select and prototype core features to understand more about the impact of that idea.
How to define and apply dynamic product behaviors using rapid hardware, firmware, & software prototyping techniques.
How to select appropriate technologies and systems to achieve design goals.
Methods for crafting product personality by identifying and analyzing key moments of interaction.
Ways of defining and documenting information structures through experience flow diagrams, systems mapping, and overall information architecture.
Techniques for creating manufacturing documentation, including Bill of Materials, Electrical Schematic, and 3D drawings.
course deliverables
The main deliverable will be a physical interaction design project communicated through a final presentation using prototyped artifacts and presented to a panel of designers and relevant industry experts. Students will need to work in groups in order to identify user needs, develop scenarios, and build user experience frameworks around a given topic.

Dear 1Ls,
Welcome to the funnel.
Really, we hate to burst your bubble. It pains us to do so. Your first few months of law school have been a blast, click clacking your way up a huge rollercoaster lift, and you have no idea how far you have to fall.
It's late autumn and your peers rush to schedule OPIA appointments. Click. Everyone's doing something positive for their 1L summer. Clack. And you have no reason to believe that your friends will abandon their ambitions for easy money. Click. After all, how could somebody who did TFA go on to defend the corrupt actors responsible for our national foreclosure crisis? Clack. Or the tens of thousands of cancer-causing chemicals in everyday products? Click. Or the climate change that caused Hurricane Sandy? Clack. Clack. Clack.
But defend them they will. Your peers will put aside their hopes and dreams and good intentions. They will position themselves firmly on the wrong side of history, beside the lawyers who defended everything from tobacco to the BP oil spill. Beside the lawyers who think their "professional responsibility" is to ignore the results of their actions.
And they will do it for two reasons: money and fear. (Okay, mostly money.)
We're here to call out this funneling process, this soul-sucking vacuum that takes brilliant, passionate, and dedicated humans and turns them into corporate defenders. But it's not all about the negative. We're also here to remind you that you are too talented, you are too full of promise, and you have too many options to sell yourself short.
Building off of the remarkable success of last spring, we thought we'd openly publish our five goals for the upcoming year. That way, you can know exactly what we're up to and why. And you can let us know if we're doing a good job.
Goal 1: Talk about what firms really do and who they really defend
By the time you learn about what firms really do and who they really defend, it's too late. Most students sign away their professional lives after only one year of classes they didn't choose.
Perhaps if you had studied antitrust or securities law during 1L, you'd realize what it entails: mind-numbing legal maneuvering that feels pretty close to the criminal activity you're helping your clients get away with. And that's when it doesn't feel like sub-citing the world's most boring law review article.
Goal 2: Critically evaluate what a life in corporate defense means
What does it mean—emotionally, psychologically, spiritually—to waste the vast majority of your waking life doing something you don't believe in? What does it mean to mortgage away the rest of your twenties (and most of your thirties) in six-minute increments?
These jobs have harrowing implications for individuals and their families, but they're only mentioned in the sexist and euphemistic frame of "work-life balance." Sexist because it's almost always directed at women. Euphemistic because everything else in the world that matters to you is placed in firm opposition (nay, "balance") to your "work."
Goal 3: Support and encourage HLS's best-in-class public interest programming
The way HLS students talk about finding jobs, you'd think they were lepers graduating from massage school. In fact, as Harvard Law students, we have the incredible privilege, luck, and opportunity to attend a world-class institution with unparalleled resources for those seeking to do something (anything) positive with their law degree.
Have you ever met with OPIA? These people are ridiculously good at what they do, and they'll put themselves on the line for you. And under Dean Minow, Harvard's significantly expanded the Law and Social Change program, launched the Public Service Venture Fund, secured 25 Ford Foundation grants, and maintained one of the most comprehensive loan repayment programs in the country. Simply put, HLS is a great place to do good.
Goal 4: Narrate the law-school-to-corporate-defense funneling process—as it happens
For all the administration is doing, much of legal education hasn't changed since the 19th century. We venture to say that it's got a rotten core—from the Socratic method to the corporate firms for which our classrooms are named.
This broken legal pedagogy, combined with undue BigLaw influence, produces the coercive funneling system we have today. Most 1Ls don't know it yet, but you're going to have to sign up for EIP all too soon. Before you have any relevant professional experience. While you're locked into classes you didn't choose and locked out of clinics that remind you why you came to law school in the first place.
The tragic part is that it's the same, senseless song, year after year. And that we are all complicit in hitting "replay" each fall. Most 1Ls get their misinformation from 2Ls and 3Ls—none of whom have actually done the work they blithely insist is the only reasonable option.
We hope to share our honest and critical experience of 1L with you, as you go through it, and we sincerely hope you make this conversation a two-way process.
Goal 5: Continue & expand the national conversation
Firmly Refuse is spreading—fast. Last year, Berkeley Law started its own 60+ member chapter and looks to ramp up involvement this year. Our peers at Yale held similar conversations about firm recruitment and the funneling process, and we can't wait to reach more law students at RebLaw this spring. We're already talking to NLG chapters in law schools all across the country, and we're excited to keep this conversation going at a national level.
Bonus Goal: Bring justice back
Justice has become a word we see only in quotes on walls, a word we hear only in speeches recited as students come and leave the school. Yet a different law school experience—a different legal education—is possible.
Imagine if there were a conversation on campus about being the most effective advocate for justice. Imagine if we weren't afraid to ask each other why we're taking the jobs that we do. Imagine if it were normal to ask your peers what good they hoped to accomplish with their career—and how we could work together to make it happen.
We're Firmly Refuse, and we've got some great news: We're here to start that conversation.
Firmly Refuse is a campaign initiated by Harvard Law students, conducted through the National Lawyers Guild. Those interested in getting involved can e-mail firstname.lastname@example.com, or visit firmlyrefuse.tumblr.com.

The day we put up our Christmas tree, we fished out the holiday movies and realized that last year we hadn't watched CHRISTMAS IN CONNECTICUT. I'm not quite sure how we missed this last year, but we chalked it up to the silly seasona and how crazy it can get. So since we missed it last year, it was the first video we popped in last week.
Now, this is not the remake version with Dyan Cannon, but the original with Barbara Stanwyk, who plays Elizabeth Lane, a woman who writes a food column for a magazine based on Good Housekeeping. Problem is, she can't cook, doesn't live on the farm she talks about in her column, and has no baby or husband, either. So when her publisher tells her he's sending her a war hero to host for Christmas, she has to scramble to create the life she's pretended to have. What ensues is a lot of fun and romance and holiday cheer.
And for those of you who notice these things: It seems that Hollywood decided to use the same house that's in Holiday Inn for this movie (or the other way around). Might as well not waste a good set.

I can totally understand why the Muggles go crazy when they lose power for more than a few days – imagine if your wand snapped and you didn't know when it would be repaired. We live among these poor crazed Muggles and do what we can to help them out without letting them know we're using magic. Still, it makes it hard to concentrate on magical classes – with no thanks to the Ravenclaws who waited until the last 3 days of the month to post 60% of their projects. Yes, they beat us in October too.
Grumble, grumble; it's a good thing they are so inspiring and endearing…
So, finals for October are as follows:
1. Righteous Ravenclaw with 527 and a partial
2. Superb Slytherin with 492
3. Gorgeous Gryffindor with 432
4. Hard-working Hufflepuff with 395 and a partial.
Gryffindor grabbed an early lead the first two days of November with 16 projects – more than double from any other house. Nice work Lions.
So here we are – last chance to keep the cup. The full total homework post standings are as follows:
1. Claws at 1185
2. Snakes at 1066
3. Lions at 98
4. Badgers at 924
If we did the same amount as September and the Claws dropped off a little we could catch them. Really.
Go Slytherin! Get in your tiny projects in multitudes – and do it now in case the power goes out. Homework by wand is not always an option, plus it overwhelms the Professors. Grumpy Teachers does not equal extra bonus points.
Fly my Pretties, fly!

Post Titles Really Do Count
Reviewing Diva Marketing Blog's stats tonight I noticed a link from Google that led to a post I had written about Bob Lutz, Chairman of GM, who by the way, has helped set the bar for c-level blogging. My post was a continuation of the conversation from Debbie Weil's informative interview with Gary Gray, GM's VP Communication for North America, about Bob Lutz.
The key word search was - bob lutz blog. Diva Marketing's page rank - #2. The GM blog - #1. Naked Conversations came in #3 ... and Shel posted an entire interview with Mister Lutz.
Go figure! The search people would be able to tell you why. All I know is Post Titles Really Do Count. Of course by tomorrow the rankings might have changed...
P.s. I hate Typepad's new format for archive pages. Why do they insist we scoll down to read the post?

Hey, hey! My name is Kimmoy. It means "Caribbean Goddess." Not really, but I like to think so sometimes :) Anyway, thanks for stopping by my site. I'm excited that you're here to explore adventures of being a writer in the Tech industry. If you've ever worked at a job you hate, then you know it must feel like winning the lottery when you finally find one that you actually like. Thankfully, I love my profession as a content strategist and technical writer. At the time of writing this, I have visited over 20 countries where most were on a 10-month journey across Europe, Asia, and Argentina. I had plans to visit other countries in South America, but once I landed a contract with Google, I brought my suitcase and high hopes to Silicon Valley.
Surprisingly, here in California is where I've experienced unexpected culture shock. How so? First of all, I'm an island gurl, born and raised on St. Thomas. I have lived in a few countries as well as states in the US, but being out here in the "Bay Area" is a completely different lifestyle. You would think this would be the perfect place for a summer chasing chick with an electrical engineering degree, right? Ha! As painful as it it sometimes, I was not meant to fit in here, but born to stand out.
In fact, I have been navigating my career as one of the few engineers-turned-technical writer/content strategist for the past 11 years. I know that you don't really hear much about engineers who are good at, let alone enjoy writing. In my wild imagination, I believe I should be salsa dancing somewhere in Colombia, but for now, I feel like I've found my happy "work" place in the world of Tech. So many cool products to learn and explore, and I get to help other people ("users and customers") do the same.
So, here on Keeping Up With Kimmoy, I share some of my experiences and tips as a Tech writer and because I'm very passionate about traveling, I'm sure I'll bring it up occasionally. For the most part, you'll find resources on how to build a strong professional brand for a job in Tech which includes services to update your resume, strategies to master the elusive job search process, and a course on how to kickstart a writing career in tech. Lots of people have found them to be worthwhile and insightful which is why I'm excited to share them with you. Oh! If you're an aspiring tech writer, content strategist, or writer in Tech, please stick around. You're my people.
My ultimate goal here is to help you with your career goals and get as many talented writers in the Tech industry because quite frankly, I can't take on all of these juicy opportunities. Anyway, I built this site as a way to serve and inspire you. If you can keep up, catch me on your favorite social media platform or simply shoot me an email using the contact form below.
Thanks a bunch for joining me on this journey!
