If you are into less TV and more nature, less electronic toys and more natural toys for children this may be for you...A group of optimistic parents seeking to learn and share more about Waldorf style parenting and teaching methods.

What do customers want in a multichannel experience and how will technology help deliver it in 2014?
Customers don't always know what it is they want, but by looking at current habits, themes will undoubtedly emerge.
Walker Sands has recently surveyed 1,000 US consumers on the future of retail. The results are interesting and give some pointers to retailers hoping to stay on consumer trend for buying habits.
Here are the best bits:

I recently wrote a round-up post on the fairly new phenomenon by 'buy to give' ecommerce sites. One of the featured sites was MyGoodness.com.
I've been talking to its founders to find out more about its founding ethos and the future of the platform.
Will buy-to-give become a larger part of charities' efforts and charitable 'donations', as the consumer urge continues unabated?

Winter is here and the Christmas decorations are out in full force.
According to the BRC-KPMG Retail Sales Monitor, online sales over Christmas 2012 were up by almost 20% compared to the year before as almost 60% of people did most of their Christmas shopping online.
Now that consumers are increasingly using smartphones and tablets to shop, we will no doubt see an even greater surge in online Christmas shopping in 2013.

The feeling of leading a charitable and sustainable life is one that most of us want. For those of us that don't straight-out donate to charity, making the right choices is essentially the best way to give back.
Sort of like that decision not to go to McDonald's but to use the local bakery instead or buying a pair of TOMS, for example, we feel as if we've given something back without making any effort. Guilt-free consumption, if you will.
If you're not familiar with TOMS, it's the shoe and eyewear brand with the 'One for One' philosophy. For every product bought, TOMS will help a person in need.
Of course, this reads a little like cheating on the part of the customer that wants to feel like a saint whilst getting those in vogue boating shoes. Well, actually I don't think it is.
I think ecommerce and philanthropy are a natural fit, allowing customers to give something back simply by making the right choices.
In this post, I'll be listing eight buy-to-give ecommerce companies and explaining why I think this movement might fundamentally change company culture.

Consumers can buy almost anything online from groceries to holidays, gadgets to clothing, even cars.
Ecommerce today is exciting, innovative, and profitable: last year U.S. shoppers made internet history when Cyber Monday sales topped a record-breaking $1.5bn in online sales.
According to comScore, it was the biggest spending day in U.S. ecommerce history.
But one of the cornerstones of retail, be it online or in physical stores, has always been turning one-time shoppers into regular customers. What's the best way to do that?
by Bernard Luthi 30 April 2013 15:51pm 3 comments
Well, it's that day again. Valentine's Day is here yet again to the delight of retailers everywhere. No wonder, when online sales in the US and the UK have continued to rise year-over-year in the run up to Valentine's Day and retailers have had to learn to scale for seasonal surges.
The folks over at Rakuten, the online marketplace that's quickly catching up to Amazon and eBay, shared a few stats and a lovely infographic (don't say we didn't give you anything for Valentine's!) detailing the global spending trends surrounding this love-sick holiday.

Given the surge of ecommerce and the collapse of Blockbuster, HMV and Jessops, it seems bricks and mortar shops may eventually disappear.
As technology and delivery mechanisms improve, will we become a nation that stares at a screen, clicking away with a cup of tea?
Online shopping is convenient and simple. The way we research and buy online may be changing, but the High Street can still play a major part in this development.
Technology can enhance and rejuvenate bricks and mortar shopping, creating an interactive and enhanced shopping experience.

The world recently celebrated Global Entrepreneurship Week, which aims to encourage people to set up their own businesses.
Afterwards, an article by the Independent claimed that whilst Britons are keen enough to promote the entrepreneurial spirit, few of us are willing to actually take the risk.
Those of us who do, then don't promote our success because, well – we're British.

The internet has become so integral to our everyday lives that even the most old-fashioned items on the Christmas 'to do' list have now been transformed.
So it's true that in some situations, we actually can't live without technology, but metaphorically speaking, could you have survived Christmas without it?
Here's my top 10 ways in which the internet changed Christmas in 2012:

I'm trying to gather our SBARG information
What do we know? We can all read what's on the sbarg tumblr, so I won't post too much on that, but here is some information we might not all know:
This is the "he" that the horrorterrors keep referring to
As for the codes, we're trying to decode them all. I've found that the first code they ever sent has some exact parallels to a certain conversation between John and Grimdark Rose, and they may be saying something to the meaning of "hello, would you like to help us find the killer?" This same conversation might lead to more decoding.
Melodic whispers. Has this been decoded? Am I missing something?
The horrorterrors have said that we may save our planets if we choose. Otherwise, they were blown up by Chronos when we entered the game (and thus received our god-tiers).
SC also seems to be in our askboxes. The SC tag should be thoroughly explored. The horrorterrors have said that Prospitian dreamers can receive guidance from the Skaian clouds - is this what SC stands for?It has come to my attention (because of this player) that the SC in our askboxes (not in the sc omegle tag) is an individual known as splitCenterfold on pesterchum, whose tumblr states that he will answer your questions if you can tell him the password. It is interesting to note that "lux purgat" is Latin for "Purge the light." This might be a reference to a void aspect, or it could be a threat to "light" - what we assume is analogous to information. He is the leader of a group called Black Sheep. I still have not confirmed if they are a gamejacker or what, and I am working on that now.
We also know that there are "Strangers" (or "Enigmas") on omegle under the SC tag who seem opposed to the horrorterrors. This may be Chronos, but we can't be sure. apocalypsegambit has told me that these are not, in fact, the same SC as splitCenterfold and tend to make less sense.
There is a Chronos blog here,
and again I have not confirmed if this is a fan or a SBARG-affiliate.There is an anon here who has told us that this blog is not canon and most of the asks have been sent by the person running the blog to garner sympathy.There is someone who calls themselves terseThespian and claims they want to bring "Lord Chronos" into existence. They may be a fan, or they may be with SBARG. Let's not rule anything out yet.
I have asked the SBARG tumblr if splitCenterpiece, terseThespian, and the Chronos blog are canon to their game. Do not come to any conclusion until they have answered, anon sleuthing or not.
If you hadn't already seen, Lord English appears to be helping the horrorterrors in order to kill Chronos and then the players and horrorterrors. Probably a gamejacker but the sbarg tumblr did acknowledge him. Also the frog was found in the space S-5. This might become important information later on.
Also here is a screenshot of the forge being destroyed.
There is a sbarg-findthetruth tumblr, but it has seen little love.
sbargrist.tumblr.com will chronicle your grist-collecting. The SBARG tumblr has said that they are monitoring it.
We have also asked repeatedly if the horrorterrors can lie or omit information, and they have said they cannot lie and our only legitimate information comes through them. This makes the probability of SC, terseThespian, and the Chronos blog being simply fans very high.
The truth is, we don't know who to trust. We need more information before we can proceed without doubts. However, the horrorterrors have a sense of humor, so there's that.
IF YOU HAVE INFORMATION: please tag it sbarg-findthetruth and be prepared to show screencaps! I'm technically not affiliated with that blog but I will be following the tag! I will try to edit this post as we learn more.
I have added a ton of information! Please take note of information that has come to light today.

Sponsored Deals
They're like ads, but good.
OK, yes, companies pay a little something to be Sponsored Deals. But we don't allow just any old crap in this section. Sponsored Deals are proposed to us by other retailers, manufacturers, and even other daily deal sites. If we find the deal compelling enough that our members will appreciate us bringing it to their attention, we'll feature it here. Believe it or not, we have a reputation to uphold. If your store would like to be considered for this space, please contact us for details. But if your deal is lame, or sketchy, no amount of money will let you buy your way in.
Community Deals
It's whatever you want it to be.
Pretty much, anyway. This is where you find the deals that wooters like you have ferreted out and brought to light. We're thinking it'll turn into a massive database of discounted products from around the Web, constantly expanding to absorb the newest deals from the very moment their prices are slashed, with each deal immediately rated by hordes of savvy voters to spotlight the very greatest deals in the world today. Hey, we can dream, right?
We use a fancy algorithm to determine which deals are catching the most buzz – they're under the Popular tab, which is the default view of this section. You can look for the most popular deals today, this week, or this month. The Fresh tab features the most recently submitted deals, so that's where to look for deals that everybody else doesn't know about yet. And the Search bar does what a Search bar does, only, uh, much wootier! Yeah! Right on!
Ask The Community
They probably won't bite.
Organic bullets? Vegetarian haggis? Cheap tickets to Antarctica? The best high-performance sweatsocks for under $100? If you're looking for a deal that doesn't appear to show up in our Community Deals section, throw the question to your fellow cheapskates. Or answer a question for one of your fellow cheapskates. Or vote for your favorite questions, or your favorite answers, or… maybe we should call this section "Ask, Answer, Comment On, And Vote In The Community", but that won't fit on the page.

Warfarin diet: What foods should I avoid?
By Mayo Clinic staffOriginal Article: http://www.mayoclinic.com/health/warfarin/AN00455
- With Mayo Clinic emeritus hypertension specialist
Sheldon G. Sheps, M.D.
read biographyclose windowBiography of
Sheldon G. Sheps, M.D.
Sheldon Sheps, M.D.
Dr. Sheldon Sheps, emeritus professor of medicine and former chair of the Division of Nephrology and Hypertension in the Department of Medicine at Mayo Clinic, has been with Mayo Clinic since 1960.
Dr. Sheps, a Winnipeg, Manitoba, native, is board certified in internal medicine and specializes in hypertension and peripheral vascular diseases. He developed a multidisciplinary approach with specially trained nurses, dietitians, technicians and educators to help form a team approach to the treatment of patients with abnormal blood pressure.
"I have always believed in involving the patient and family in their health care," Dr. Sheps says. "I have asked for their understanding of the illness and issues and for participation in decisions. The Web is a natural extension of that, and now many more people can be informed."
Dr. Sheps chaired the sixth working group, and he participated in the fourth, fifth and seventh groups that developed the then-latest guidelines for hypertension under the auspices of the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI). He helped write the latest American Heart Association (AHA) report on blood pressure measurement. He chaired an AHA group that produced an online accreditation for blood pressure measurement for health professionals.
Dr. Sheps has co-authored books, newsletters, CD-ROMs and other Mayo Clinic health information material. He joined Mayo Clinic's Web team in 1998. He was medical editor-in-chief of both editions of the "Mayo Clinic on High Blood Pressure" book; the last edition was published in 2003. He was also medical editor-in-chief of "Mayo Clinic 5 Steps to Controlling High Blood Pressure," published in 2008.
In addition, Dr. Sheps was section editor for each of the first three editions of "Hypertension Primer" for the American Heart Association.
Dr. Sheps was also chairman of the Science Base Subcommittee and the National High Blood Pressure Education Program, and he was a consultant to the Hypertension Initiative of the World Health Organization. In 1997, he was honored with the Individual Achievement Award on the 25th anniversary of the National High Blood Pressure Education Program of NHLBI. In 2009, he was honored as a Distinguished Mayo Alumnus.

Warfarin diet: What foods should I avoid?
Can you tell me what I should eat while I am taking warfarin (Coumadin)? What foods should I avoid?
from Sheldon G. Sheps, M.D.
Warfarin is a blood-thinning medication that helps treat and prevent blood clots. There is no specific warfarin (Coumadin) diet. However, certain foods and beverages can make it so warfarin doesn't effectively prevent blood clots. It's important to pay attention to what you eat while taking warfarin.
One nutrient that can lessen warfarin's effectiveness is vitamin K. It's important to be consistent in how much vitamin K you get daily. The average daily allowance of vitamin K for adult men is 120 micrograms (mcg). For adult women, it's 90 mcg. While eating small amounts of foods that are rich in vitamin K shouldn't cause a problem, avoid eating or drinking large amounts of:
- Kale
- Spinach
- Brussels sprouts
- Parsley
- Collard greens
- Mustard greens
- Chard
- Green tea
Certain drinks can increase the effect of warfarin, leading to bleeding problems. Avoid or drink only small amounts of these drinks when taking warfarin:
- Cranberry juice
- Alcohol
Talk to your doctor before making any major changes in your diet and before starting any over-the-counter medications, vitamins or herbal supplements. If you are unable to eat for several days or have ongoing stomach upset, diarrhea or fever, consult your doctor. These signs and symptoms may mean you need a different dose of warfarin.

Poster Boys (and Girls)
Astronauts show a lighter side in their unofficial crew posters.
- By Rebecca Maksel
- AirSpaceMag.com, July 08, 2011
Courtesy Sean Collins, Amy Gish, and NASA.
Designer Amy Gish was inspired by the 10-year anniversary edition of Reservoir Dogs when she created the Expedition 23 crew poster. "I wanted a design that was fluid, so I would be able to switch out crewmembers if needed," she explains.
Gish remembers her time at NASA with great fondness: "I worked with some amazing artists," she says. "It was an amazingly positive experience. And it was fun—I got to color all day; you can't complain about that!"

Is Frank De Winne looking a little pensive? Perhaps he has just remembered what traditionally happens to red-shirt crew members.

Tim Reckart Talks Head Over Heels
Spend enough time at film festival screenings and you soon realize that some of the best, most innovative and interesting animated shorts made today are student films. You still have to wade through the usual amount of dreck to find the truly outstanding pieces. But by and large, the work being produced by student animators is certainly on par with the work of the vast majority of independent animators you'll find lurking about today's animation community, hiding in the shadows as they wait for their renders to finish or their disability checks to arrive.
One of the best animated shorts you'll find from last year's crop is one such student piece, Timothy Reckart's graduate film, Head Over Heels. The only student film among this year's Oscar nominees, Head Over Heels takes a poignant, funny and remarkably mature look at the inherent struggles that both define and plague relationships. The film's unique frame of reference – a husband and wife living upside down from each other, separated by gravity – forms the central visual metaphor that has meaning and context within any conflict between two people.
Following in the footsteps of his idol, Nick Park, Timothy did his work at the UK's National Film and Television School. In fact, his stop-motion graduate film comes exactly 30 years after Mr. Park's introduction of Wallace and Gromit in his 1982 graduate film. After meeting Timothy and his film's producer, Fodhla Cronin O'Reilly (pronounced "Fola") at this year's Annie Awards, where Head Over Heels took home the Best Student Film award, we had a chance to talk about his film, his first time directing a real crew and the challenges of telling such a compelling story without the benefit of any dialogue.
Dan Sarto: So tell me about the genesis of your film? How did you first come up with the idea?
Timothy Reckart: So, it started with the idea of a husband and wife who are separated by gravity. That encapsulated a lot of ideas that I had been thinking about, things that I thought would be great to address with the film. One of those was the kind of hostile tone that political disagreement has taken on in the US over the past few years. So it appealed to me, because it's a story about two people who see the world differently, but they still have to find a way to live together. This is an idea that could apply to political, religious, really any sort of ideological disagreement. It was a great metaphor for that. Of course, it's also directly about marriage. It highlights what I've seen with marriages. Personally, I'm not married but the married people in my life have provided great examples of the fact that marriage doesn't just "happen." You have to work at it, to "try." This film is an opportunity to talk about the sacrifice that fuels marriage. The other thing was at the time, I was studying in England and my girlfriend was in New York. So during the animation process, that divide also provided a lot of emotional fuel for all the acting and performances of the puppets.
Once I had settled on this idea, we decided to go with stop-motion because it's the sort of idea that could just be a metaphor and could work just at the conceptual level. Just having a world of ideas. I wanted it to have realism. I wanted the world to be tangible, for people to feel this upward gravity, that they weren't watching the film at arm's length. I wanted people to always be aware of the metaphor but actually remain fully immersed in the here and now of the characters. Ultimately that was why stop-motion was the right medium. It's got that intense focus on miniatures which exaggerates the textures that all the objects have naturally, that makes everything so immediate and tactile. Also, it's wonderful because you can do some fun things in-depth. We didn't have to do everything like a doll house. We could do some high angles, low angles, do some interesting over the shoulder shots, which were actually sort of below the shoulders in a way. Stop-motion was going to be the only way to do it. It was a weird choice though. When we started doing development meetings with the school faculty there was some concern about how the hell we were going to build a set where you can hang the puppets from the ceiling. Are we going to need to flip the set? That kind of thing. Because it's just not something that people usually do with stop-motion.
DS: No they don't.
TR: Yeah. It was funny because the one reference I used to show them it could be done was the bit in The Wrong Trousers where Wallace is walking on the ceiling of the art museum. It was great being in England because we had the context of Aardman. I asked a couple contacts there how that was done. [They said] they literally just put it upside down, it was that simple. So we knew we could do it. We needed to find a way to build the set so that we could flip it. The way we ended up doing is was the whole thing was built so it could be taken apart and reassembled without destroying it. That was the set build.
We crew up at the film school with one student from each discipline. We had a production design student, one [handling] editing, composing, sound design and cinematography. The production design student headed up the set build. Over the course of around five months, we built all the props, the sets and the puppets. Then it was time to start animating.

Downton Abbey has been getting a lot of buzz lately. And it is well deserved. This show blows my mind. I stayed up until 3:30 AM yesterday (well, technically, this morning) finishing Season 1, which you can find on Netflix.
After a heart-jerking Season 1 finale, I had a sheer moment of panic: Netflix only has the first season.
Luckily, there is nothing a quick Google search cannot fix, and I found out that PBS has all of Season 2 online.
I'm already on Episode 3, and oh yeah, its intense.
Reasons to Obsess:
1. The acting is phenomenal. Each character is so distinct, dynamic, and interesting, and the actors are fully committed. You see their vulnerabilities, insecurities, and they really put their heart in to it. So much so, that when things go wrong, your own heart breaks, and when things go well, you rejoice with them. The episodes tend to take place entirely in or around the house, yet there is not a dull moment, as their relationships are fascinating to watch as they unfold.
2. It is beautiful. I wish I could steal their clothes (okay, I might look slightly out of place in early 1900s attire). But in all sincerity, whoever designed the sets and the costumes did a fantastic job, and the hair and the makeup is impeccable.
3. You get a glimpse in to history. The show gives a very honest and accurate view in to what life was like in the early 1900s. The writing is strong– they definitely did their research. And what I love most, is that they give both sides of the story; what it was like for the higher class and the lower class, as the story follows two groups, the wealthy aristocratic Crawley family and their servants, living in the same household.

Remember Me
The Yazoo City Chiefs won the 8 and under tournament, 82 Challenge, in Greenwood this past Saturday. The Chiefs won the championship game 1-0 over Synergy (Greenwood) and finished 4-1 in the tournament. Pictured above are (from left ro right) bottom row: Hayden Tyer, Gavan Echols, John Jacks, Zachary Parks, Ty Saxton, and Daris Dew. Middle row: Tyler Johnson, Tyler Wommack, Ashton Saxton, Landon Lowery, JoJo Russell and A.J. Saxton. Coaches: John Lowery, Trey Parks, head coach Joey Saxton and Josh Wommack.
Earlier this week, Yazoo City senior Jalen Nelson signed his national letter of intent to play baseball next spring for Holmes Community College. Nelson (seated middle) was joined by his parents Patricia Nelson (seated left) and Hubert Nelson (seated right), as well as (back row, from left to right) Holmes CC Assistant Coach Ryan Beggs, Yazoo City head coach Gerlad Peyton and Yazoo City assistant coach Keith Fisher. Nelson played short stop for the Indians this past season.
Catrina Hall was named to the All-Region Team this past week as a freshman.Q'curtesia Bullock was one of four Lady Panther softball players to be named to the All Region 3-4A team.By TAYLOR MITCHELLSports EditorAfter a quick and promising start to the 2012 season, the Lady Panther softball team of Yazoo County saw its season end on a sour note.But that taste has subsided a bit with the announcement of four players named to the All-Region 3-4A Team.Catrina Hall, Jessica Adams, Raven Carter and Q'curtesia Bullock were chosen by the coaches in the region recently to be honored as the best players in the region.The selection of four Lady Panthers to the all region team bodes well for the upcoming seasons. Carter is the lone senior on the Lady Panther softball team, meaning head coach Grant Andrews returns the bulk of his starting line up in 2013.
The Mitchell ReportIn my five years working as a sports reporter, I've written plenty of articles about success stories and championship victories as well as the negative ones about losses and bad performances.I've celebrated the accomplishments of players and called out coaches, players and even an entire team when the situation called for it.But's that the rule, only when the situation calls for it. If a coach or player makes a decision that turns out bad, it is my job to point that out. If they cost their team the game, it is my job to point that out as well. (Note: I do not call out high school players like I would a college or professional).However, you and me, as well as the person sitting next to you, all have different opinions about what is negative. That's fine and it is what makes us human. Which brings me to the point I want to make. In this past Wednesday's edition, I wrote a story about Fletcher Cox. I had an opportunity to speak with Cox at the Yazoo City Athletic Awards Banquet. It was a good interview and a story I was excited to write about.So, when I sat down trying to figure out what to lead with, I looked for something interesting to grab the reader's attention, which led me to the Philadelphia Inquirer's report about Cox's first practice and a situation with a coach.It was interesting and I thought it would grab the reader's attention. So, I wrote the story without a second thought. Apparently those four paragraphs didn't have a good reception for several people, including Fletcher himself.I deeply apologize to Fletcher for that. It was never my intention to offend by writing something negative. I did not see it as something negative, but rather something interesting about that first weekend of practices. Again, I did not mean to offend, but only to entertain and keep the readers informed on Cox's experience as an NFL rookie. For that I'm sorry.
Manchester senior Mary Moses Hitt returns a back hand shot, en route to her sixth straight state championship, 6-1, 6-1. Hitt's victory helped guide Manchester to another state championship in MAIS class AA. The Mavs claimed the state title last year, but lost two key players and had to fight even harder for them to win it all again.Sophomore Mary Morgan Mohamed (above) and Margaret Dent won the No. 2 girls doubles state championship with a 6-4, 6-4 victory over Lamar Academy.Hitt's sixth straight title leads Manchester to second state title in two yearsBy TAYLOR MITCHELLSports EditorWhen she was just a seventh grader, Mary Moses Hitt set a goal for herself that would seem impossible to anyone else. Before she even stepped onto a court, Hitt wanted to go out and win all six state tennis championships that she would be able to in her career.Wednesday afternoon at the Ridgeland Tennis Center, she accomplished just that with a 6-1, 6-1 victory over Anna Reddy in the MAIS AA No. 1 girls singles championship match."When I set that goal so young…to accomplish that is very great," Hitt said with her sixth state championship clutched in her hands. "I see it as pretty big accomplishment.""That was tremendous to see her accomplish," Manchester head coach Debbie Crisler said. "She set a goal for herself and never backed down from it."-------for the rest of the story see The Yazoo Herald printed edition or subscribe to the Digital Edition.----------

We searched the web's ticket sites high and low, but no one has any tickets available for this event.
If you track this event, we can let you
know when tickets become available.
You will receive emails alerting you about price updates and ticket deals.
When you track performers and events on SeatGeek they'll be shared on your timeline.

Tickets for Music Festivals are sometimes mislabeled by the seller.
Some tickets are for a single day's entry, and some are for multiple days.
Please double-check your tickets before you buy.
SeatGeek's Deal Score is a rating that determines whether a ticket is a bargain or a ripoff. The higher the number, the better the deal. The worst options have the classification Awful Deal, with classifications proceeding all the way up to Amazing Deal (Deal Score of 88 or above). Amazing Deals are exceedingly rare--only 5% of events have one.
When buying tickets for any event on SeatGeek, focus on the tickets with the highest Deal Scores and you can be confident that you're getting a bargain.
For some events on SeatGeek, there are over 10,000 tickets available. It can be quite difficult to sort through all of those tickets and identify the best deals.
This is further complicated by the fact that, when buying tickets for live events, you cannot shop based on price alone. A courtside ticket for $50 is probably a better deal than a bleacher seat for $30, but this might not be apparent if you sorted by price.
Deal Score enables you to make apples-to-apples comparisons among tickets that are in different parts of an arena.
If considering going to one of several events, Deal Score, is also helpful for determining which event has the absolute best deal.

mid-August report
1. Congrats to Gail Savina and Ingela Wanerstrand who did a good job answering questions on KUOW this past week. Being live ain't always easy to do, but they fielded questions nicely.
2. Remember to water. Especially newly planted trees and berries, shrubs or trees in containers. The heat will dry things out. Water.
3. Someday if you are up in the Mt. Vernon area you might drop by and look at the trees and berry bushes at the Mt. Vernon research center. On Saturday, August 18th, several speakers will be there as well talking on fruit-related subjects. I have mentioned the Master Gardeners, the Answer Line, Seattle tilth in previous blogs. The Mt. Vernon Research Center is just one more resource to help the backyard gardener.

Petite Filets Rubbed with Scotch and Cracked Pepper
I feel not the least bit of guilt buying petite filets once or twice a month. The largest supermarket in my town is undergoing a renovation, and adding new and better products. I've been able to find choice cuts of meat more often.
For the second time this month, we've had steak rubbed with cracked pepper.
"Try rubbing it with Scotch," my single-malt loving husband suggested. He's fond of Lagavulin, a peaty, smoky libation our friend R., a bon vivant and raconteur of the first order, introduced us to a decade ago.
And so I did, allowing the meat to marinate in the Scotch for an hour or so. Then I massaged in a commercial cracked pepper rub and broiled the meat on a bed of herbs, turning over frequently.
I served this very tender meat on a bed of oven roasted vegetables: Potatoes, onions, carrots, red pepper and Brussels sprouts.
Everything melted in our mouths. The buttery syrah we drank was a fine choice.
You can scrimp all you want in tough times. But you must continue to pump money into local businesses. And you must eat.

Mouth watering. Shall do them next Sunday for guests. Mine, very much the opposite, Black Beans, Chicken and Ginger. Also waiting for more snow. We love it.

Scotch? Really? Never heard of this. Thanks for the recipe.

Hi, Rob! Thanks for the visit - love your cheery yellow blog. Don't you love winter?
Lydia, I've seen steaks done with bourbon, too, but we are confirmed single-malt scotch fans here. - 22 February, 2009 21:36

Ah, wonderful idea! My boyfriend is quite the Scotch lover, so this would be a perfect Friday night dinner in.

The scotch imparts a very subtle taste to the meat. My husband raved, something this reserved Cornishman rarely does!

I've never been a Scotch drinker, but I know that any alcohol changes flavor when used in cooking. I absolutely adore the sound of this one! I think I just might have to pinch some from my friend Ellen who drinks it...

Sounds yummy, as usual. I have had Bourbon Chicken, but never paired liquor with beef (except red wine, of course!)...hmmm....our local grocer has tenderloin on sale at least once a month...perhaps next time? I know it would get raves from my husband...he loves beef of any kind!

This recipe is making my mouth water. Actually it's the picture that is doing it. Our Scottish friends will love this. Thanks for another great recipe, Mimi.

- lady jicky said...
we have the "scotch" cut of meat here too. Its better than rump IMO as its more marbled with fat. So, more tender.
They say there is a downturn in $$ of sales here but.... not in the supermarkets etc.
People still have to eat. - 25 February, 2009 23:51
- Sunita Top Foodie said...
O I could'nt agree more about a common chord amongst women in the family cutting across generations - loving their kitchens and their recipes! Also agree whole heartedly - there shall be no compromises as far as good food is concerned. In fact I'd say experimentation is the name of the game - chicken, ginger, black beans and some thoroughbred dna... ha ha ha

Toni, a bit of marination seems to layer the flavor. The first time I tried it, I did not marinate as long and the flavor was more obvious.
Cyn, what is it with men and beef? Same thing at our house.
Hi Penny, thanks for the kind words. I liked the photo, too, and was happy to finally take a decent steak photo.
Hi Lady J: Funny thing here: The supermarket parking lots are a bit less congested these days. I've never seen this before.
Hi Sunita and welcome to my kitchen. When time and money are scarce, inventiveness rules! - 26 February, 2009 07:50

Tell your hubby we have a friend who collects whiskey - and whisky, with more than 500 different bottles in his cellar.
Never thought of soaking the beef in it... Good idea! And I agree - somethings we just can't skimp on and still have a life! - 27 February, 2009 13:56

Welcome, Connie, and thanks for the kind words.

Sounds divine Mimi. I agree, I don't skimp on food either. We have to eat and enjoying a good meal is very important. I've never heard of using scotch I'll have to remember this next time I buy steaks.

Updated 2/18/9am: Newtown Square Fire Co.'s Public Information Officer James Biddle states that officials are investigating the fire which may have ignited from an unattended wood-burning stove.
According to Biddle, fire crews were dispatched at 8:38 p.m. on Sunday night for an initial report of a brush and woods fire. However, when firefighters arrived to the scene, the fire was described as a large barn on fire.
Biddle noted that the 20-degree weather made it especially hard to fight the structure fire on Sunday night. The following fire crews responded to the scene: Edgmont, Newtown Square, Broomall, Malvern, Paoli, East Whiteland, and Goshen's Hershey Mill stations.
Updated 2/18/13 8:30am: NBC Philadelphia reports:
Two dogs were killed in the fire and two cars inside the barn were destroyed. Officials say heavy wind and the bitter cold made it difficult for firefighters to fight the blaze.
Update 2/18/13 6am: The Daily Local tweeted that two dogs died in the fire.
Original story continues below
Crews were called out to a fire on the 1000 block of Providence Road Sunday around 8 p.m.
The fire is in the Newtown Square area near the Willistown/Edgmont border, according to Malvern Fire Co. Chief Neil Vaughn.
Newtown Square Fire Co. is responding.

The Maroon VOL. IX LOYOLA UNIVERSITY, NEW ORLEANS, LA., FRIDAY, DECEMBER 19, 1930 No. 6 Voice of Loyola Answers Westinghouse Salute GALAXY OF STARS FEATURE OF RADIO STATION'S PROGRAM WWL Shows Appreciation of Honor By Special Broadcast By Temple H. Black A flare of trumpets and the sound of the human voice floats through the ether. "New Orleans, America's Most Interesting City, goes on the air in response to the gracious tribute by Westinghouse Electric on last Tuesday, December 9." Thus spoke Wilson S. Callender, national advertisinr manager for the Association of Commerce, and guest announcer for New Orleans' return of the Westinghouse Salute. On Tuesday night, December '.*, Westinghouse Electric and Manufacturing Company honored New Orleans, Second Port U. S. A., with a salute. The speaker lauded the Crescent City and stressed the charms of old New Orleans. The world was told of the charm of the Vieux Carre, old Royal street, tiny houses with beautiful patios, the splendor of Canal street. All were vividly described in the course of the salute. The theme then changed. New Orleans was pictured as the Metropolis of the South. Her great docks and the vast amount of commerce that passes through the port daily described in detail. Westinghouse plays a most important part in the destiny of this great city. DEBATING TEAM TRIALS TO BEGIN AFTER HOLIDAYS Series of Debates On Question Of "Free Trade," Scheduled Trials for the teams which are to represent Loyola University in the approaching intercollegiate debates will begin immediately after the holidays, it was announced by Fr. Hynes, dean of the arts and science department.These trials are necessitated, due to the recent loss of the debating society's direct*,, Fr. de Monsnberf:. Each participant in the trials will be assigned a complete debate and rebuttal against the other participants. A series of eliminations will decide the members of the team. Under this plan the debaters will be tested in rebuttal as well as in main speeches. The subject will be: "Resolved, That the nations should adopt a policy of Free Trade." A committee of the faculty will act as judges. All members of the Debating Society are urged to take part in these trials, as the position of debater on the Loyola team is one of high honor. CLEE CLUB WILL ADMIT NEW MEMBERS Regular Practices Will Be Resumed With Staunch Nucleus The Glee Club, under Rev. Fr. Francis' careful guidance, has been making slow but sure progress. Some few of those former members who found the work too difficult or for other reasons ceased to attend the meetings regularly, have been eleminated and a staunch nucleus of willing songsters compose the group which in the future will represent the University as its Glee Club. Although rather late in the year for such a procedure, the director has deemed it wise to allow a few more aspirants to try for membership provided they have the necessary ability, and willingness which is required of all Glee Club men. First Tenors pnd Basses will be given special consideration.As the Christmas holidays will put a brief pause to the regular Tuesday and Thursday meetings, the Glee Club will start the new year right by having its first meeting on Tuesday, January CD, 1981, at the Holy Name Girls School, on St. Charles Ave. and Calhoun St. at 8 p. m. New members must be there if they expect to take part in any of the activities which have been planned for the Club. Freshmen Reign Supreme For A Day, But Sophs Swear Vengeance Lowly Rats Make Most of Chance As Next Day Brings Retribution With caution characterizing their every move, sophomores at University Tuesday quietly slipped through back doors, studiously avoided the grass ami stepped'put of the ; buildings wt/rfn they wanted to smoke. For Tuesday was the day when the freshman ruled supreme at the university. Tuesday was Freshman Day and the mighty sophs had to bow to the will and do the bidding]' of the lowly frosh. For four months the freshmen ] have been obeying the rules at the bidding of the sophomores, but the worm has turned and for a day the firstryear men reigned supreme. BXit occasionally a forgetful soph broke one of the rules and there was I always a watchful freshman ready to j take down his name, and at noon in ( the kangaroo court, the forgetful, : ones were declared guilty and were ' I either compelled to run the freshman gauntlet or to roll an egg for the amusement of the assembled freshies. The modes of punishment used by the freshmen were many and novel, as the sophs discovered to their sor- j row. Nor was the said weaker sex exempt from these punishments, j Many was the sophomore co-ed who ' spent her lunch hour attempting to remove the rouge and paint with which she had been smeared by the vengeful freehies. The freshies, however, suffered one great disappoint- : ment. It came when they decided that Clarence (Halfback) Smith should run the gauntlet. After carefully preparing their belts and licking their chops in a manner of speaking, the freihies, to their great disgust, saw nothing but a streak of dust when Loyola's speedster sped through their line. But he who laughs last laughs best, and the freshmen are now in the ! process of "getting their's" and will j continue to get it until December j 22, according to all reports from the sophomores. MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYBODY! u • To our friends and readers—A Merry Christmas and and Happy New Year— ■D THE STAFF. COMMERCE CLASS HEARS LECTURE BY BY ORLEANS BANKER Continental Bank Executive Speaks on "Banker and The Community" One of the most interesting lectures of the year was delivered to the commerce students last Friday by James J. A. Fortier, president of the Continental Bank and Trust Company. "Thrift is the best remedy for a period of depression," said Mr. Fortier. "By beintf a thrifty nation France paid her war debts and is not at the present time under a period of depression. Life insurance is the best means of savinjr." Mr. Fortier advises the graduates of today to stay in New Orleans, for many opportunities will be offered by this city in the future. The city will prosper since it will always serve as an outlet for the products of the Mississippi Valley. Being a very close friend of the late Father deMonsabert, Mr. Fortier dedicated his lecture to this beloved professor. Father Hynes Returns From Convention Arts Dean Attends Educational Session Held At Atlanta Rev. J. W. Hynes, S. J., dean of the college of arts and sciences, returned recently from the annual meeting of the Southern Association of Secondary Schools and Colleges, held at Atlanta, Ga., from December 1 to 5. The salient feature of the convention, said Father Hynes, was the trend of thought manifested in the speech of Merle Prunty, president of the North Central Association of Colleges. Mr. Prunty stated that it seemed that the spirit of accrediting agencies today is marked by a tendency towards sympathy and help in dealing with educational institutions, and interested consideration of circumstances in different localities rather than a rigid enforcement of credit standards.
