Honor Guard vs. Maco Engines / Deflector
Hi All,
I'm thinking about ditching my MACO Mk12 engines (and the 3pc bonus..its ok, but not great) on my cruiser for Adapted KDF Honor Guard engines...or perhaps something else. Has anyone compared the turn rate bonus on these two engines specifically...how do they stack up? (Engine power in high 30s-low 40s, FYI)
Also, has anyone had a hard time tanking with the honor guard deflector on the KDF side? It just doesn't seem as good as the MACO one for a cruiser, though I may just be missing something.

Unfortunately, not everyone becomes a SilverFox with age: those with one or two [=MC1R=] variant alleles will instead find that their hair turns an ugly dirty yellow. Older women in the 1970s and earlier who wanted to be gracefully grey would therefore get their stylists to treat their yellowing hair with a blue rinse, which, with luck, would tone down the yellow and leave a silver grey. It didn't always work - not everyone's hair absorbs the same amount of dye - and many older women walked around with distressingly blue hair. This led to this trope and also to the phrase "the blue rinse set", used in the 70s and 80s to describe older women in general (and still used in [[UsefulNotes/BritishPoliticalSystem British politics]] to describe old Tory women who don't think women should participate in politics and make sure that happens by [[{{Hypocrite}} taking control of local branches of the Conservative Party]]).Not to be confused with the [[YouGottaHaveBlueHair intensely blue hair of some anime women]]. Or men.----!!Examples[[AC:{{Film}}]]* The violent old lady in the ''WesternAnimation/{{Madagascar}}'' movies is codenamed 'Bluehair' by the penguins.* Alex's mother in ''Film/AClockworkOrange'' is shown with bluish-purplish hair. While audiences now might guess that she's a superannuated punk rocker, her color is an exaggerated blue rinse treatment.[[AC:{{Literature}}]] * In ''AmeliasNotebook'', there is one occasion where the titular character zones out in the lunch line and almost mistakes an elderly cafeteria worker for one of her troll dolls due to her blue-tinted hair.* Aunt Beatrice from ''The39Clues''.* By the end of ''Auntie Mame'', the titular character's hair "which had all gone to gray, was rinsed to a delicate periwinkle blue". Her great-nephew notices this:-->She pressed her nose against Mike's and looked into his eyes. "I've never ''seen'' hair the color of yours, my little love. It's so red!"\\"I've never seen hair the color of yours, either," Mike said. "It's ... it's so ''blue''!"* A story-- title frustratingly forgotten-- from a long-ago issue of ''Cricket'' magazine had a girl try to add a little bluing to her white horse for a show, and ending up with a blue horse. She then tries to cover it up with a chestnut-colored temp dye.

Iran criticises US over new sanctions
Iranian President Hassan Rouhani has criticised the US over new sanctions, terming them "not compatible" with the spirit of current negotiations, BBC reported Saturday.
New sanctions on 25 firms and individuals were announced in Washington Friday, as world powers suspect Iran seeks atomic weapons, a claim it strongly denies.
Speaking at a news conference broadcast on state TV, Rouhani said the introduction of new sanctions was "a very ugly move" that would deepen distrust between the two sides.
Speaking on Iranian TV, Rouhani said Iran was still committed to continuing nuclear talks with the US and five other international powers, BBC reported Saturday.
Iran insists that it is enriching uranium for use in nuclear power stations and for medical purposes.
According to US officials, the new sanctions target those suspected of evading previous sanctions, aiding the nuclear programme or supporting terrorism.

Another initiative to limit excessive salaries, and once again, the newspapers publish a list of the "top earners." More like a top 10 roll call of shame: former Teva CEO Jeremy Levin (NIS 25 million per year), Israel Chemicals CEO Stefan Borgas (NIS 20.4 million), Africa-Israel CEO Lev Leviev (NIS 20.1 million), Clal Insurance CEO Izzy Cohen (NIS 18.1 million), Oil Refineries...

Need to distinguish purely private company (is there such a thing?....Tax benefits, infrastructure benefits) Some of these salaries are in quasi public bodies, bodies in receipt of substantial State tax/subsidies etc
thank you

Having relieved Rafael Nadal of his Monte Carlo title in April, he then suffered early losses in Madrid and Rome. Last year, he swept past Roger Federer in straight sets in the semi-finals in Paris before losing in four to Nadal in a final which was completed on the third Monday.ROGER FEDERER (SUI)World ranking: 3Age: 31Birthdate: Aug 8, 1981Birthplace: Basel, SwitzerlandResidence: Bottmingen, SwitzerlandHeight: 6'1" (185 cm)Weight: 187 lbs (85 kg)Plays: Right-handedTurned pro: 1998Coach: Paul AnnaconeWebsite: www.rogerfederer.comTwitter: @FedererOfficialCareer singles titles: 76Grand Slam singles titles: 17 (Australian Open 2004, 2006, 2007, 2010, French Open 2009, Wimbledon 2003, 2004, 2005, 2006, 2007, 2009, 2012, US Open 2004, 2005, 2006, 2007, 2008)Career prize money: $77,153,203Best French Open result: Champion (2009)- Completed a career Grand Slam with victory in the 2009 final over Robin Soderling, who had handed Nadal his one and only loss. But Federer was swept aside by Nadal in the Rome final last week, winning just four games and heads to Paris without a title in the year for the first time in 13 years.RAFAEL NADAL (ESP)World ranking: 4Age: 26Birthdate: June 3, 1986Birthplace: Manacor, Mallorca, SpainResidence: Manacor, Mallorca, SpainHeight: 6'1" (185 cm)Weight: 188 lbs (85 kg)Plays: Left-handedTurned Pro: 2001Coach: Toni NadalWebsite: www.rafaelnadal.comTwitter: @RafaelNadalCareer singles titles: 56Grand Slam singles titles: 11 (Australian Open 2009; French Open 2005, 2006, 2007, 2008, 2010, 2011, 2012; Wimbledon 2008, 2010; US Open 2010)Career prize money: $53,801,264Best French Open result: Champion (2005, 2006, 2007, 2008, 2010, 2011, 2012)- No man has ever won eight singles titles at the same Grand Slam event but Nadal is the overwhelming favourite to achieve the feat over the next two weeks. His record in Paris is a staggering 52 wins against just one loss, his 2009 injury-hit defeat to Soderling. Since his return after seven months out with injury, Nadal has won six titles from eight finals.DAVID FERRER (ESP)World ranking: 5Age: 31Birthdate: April 2, 1982Birthplace: Javea, SpainResidence: Valencia, SpainHeight: 5'9" (175 cm)Weight: 160 lbs (73 kg)Plays: Right-handedTurned pro: 2000Coach: Javier PilesWebsite: www.davidferrer.comTwitter: @DavidFerrer87Career singles titles: 20Grand Slam singles titles: 0Career prize money: $18,544,109Best French Open result: Semi-final (2012)- In another era, Ferrer, nicknamed 'The Bulldozer', probably would have crushed most rivals to a earn respectable haul of major titles. But with Djokovic, Federer and Nadal in his way, he is the sport's "nearly man". Made the semi-finals in 2012 where Nadal allowed him just five games.TOMAS BERDYCH (CZE)World ranking: 6Age: 27Birthdate: Sept 17, 1985Birthplace: Valasske Mezirici, CzechResidence: Monte Carlo, MonacoHeight: 6'5" (196 cm)Weight: 200 lbs (91 kg)Plays: Right-handedTurned Pro: 2002Coach: Tomas KrupaWebsite: www.tomasberdych.czTwitter: @TomasBerdychCareer singles titles: 8Grand Slam singles titles: 0Career prize money: $14,419,926Best French Open result: Semi-final (2010)- A contemporary of Ferrer in the 'almost, but not quite' category of leading men. Possessing groundstrokes which make him the envy of most men on the tour, Berdych is a career of 'ifs' and 'maybes'. Lacks self-belief at crucial times -- in 2010, he was two sets to one up on Soderling in the semi-finals in Paris before the Swede prevailed. Wimbledon runner-up just four weeks later.JO-WILFRIED TSONGA (FRA)World ranking: 8Age: 28Birthdate: April 17, 1985Birthplace: Le Mans, FranceResidence: Gingins, SwitzerlandHeight: 6'2" (188 cm)Weight: 200 lbs (91 kg)Plays: Right-handedTurned Pro: 2004Coach: Roger RasheedWebsite: www.jowiltsonga.frTwitter: @tsonga7Career singles titles: 10Grand Slam singles titles: 0Career prize money: $11,532,819Best French Open result: Quarter-finals (2012)- On the 30th anniversary of Yannick Noah's French Open win -- the last by a home male player -- the popular Tsonga remains his country's best hope of ending that wait. Has shown glimpes of claycourt form this year, reaching the semi-finals in Monte Carlo and quarter-finals in Madrid. However, his biggest rival could be the impatient home crowd.dj/ak

Compact-sized and broadband carpet cloak and free-space cloak
Optics Express, Vol. 17, Issue 22, pp. 19947-19959 (2009)
Enhanced HTML Acrobat PDF (764 KB)
Recently, invisible cloaks have attracted much attention due to their exciting property of invisibility, which are based on a solid theory of transformation optics and quasi-conformal mapping. Two kinds of cloaks have been proposed: free-space cloaks, which can render objects in free space invisible to incident radiation, and carpet cloaks (or ground-plane cloaks), which can hide objects under the conducting ground. The first free-space and carpet cloaks were realized in the microwave frequencies using metamaterials. The free-space cloak was composed of resonant metamaterials, and hence had restriction of narrow bandwidth and high loss; the carpet cloak was made of non-resonant metamaterials, which have broad bandwidth and low loss. However, the carpet cloak has a severe restriction of large size compared to the cloaked object. The above restrictions become the bottlenecks to the real applications of free-space and carpet cloaks. Here we report the first experimental demonstration of broadband and low-loss directive free-space cloak and compact-sized carpet cloak based on a recent theoretical study. Both cloaks are realized using non-resonant metamaterials in the microwave frequency, and good invisibility properties have been observed in experiments. This approach represents a major step towards the real applications of invisibility cloaks.

Legal history of the Catholic Church
This article is part of the series: |
Legislation and Legal System of the Catholic Church |
Canon Law Task Force |
The legal history of the Catholic Church is the history of what is claimed to be the oldest continuously functioning internal legal system in Western Europe,[1] much later than Roman law but predating the evolution of modern European civil law traditions. The history of Latin canon law can be divided into four periods: the jus antiquum, the jus novum, the jus novissimum and the Code of Canon Law.[2] In relation to the Code, history can be divided into the jus vetus (all law before the Code) and the jus novum (the law of the Code, or jus codicis).[2] Eastern canon law developed separately.
Jus Antiquum[edit]
The most ancient collections of canonical legislation are certain very early Apostolic documents, known as the Church Orders: for instance, the Didache ton dodeka apostolon or "Teaching of the Twelve Apostles", which dates from the end of the first or the beginning of the 2nd century; the Apostolic Church-Ordinance; the Didascalia, or "Teaching of the Apostles"; the Apostolic Canons and Apostolic Constitutions. These collections have never had any official value, no more than any other collection of this first period. However, the Apostolic Canons and, through it, the Apostolic Constitutions, were influential for a time in that later collections would draw upon these earliest sources of Church law.[3]
It was in the East, after Constantine I's Edict of Milan of toleration (313), that arose the first systematic collections. We cannot so designate the chronological collections of the canons of the councils of the 4th and 5th centuries (314-451); the oldest systematic collection, made by an unknown author in 535, has not come down. The most important collections of this epoch are the Synagoge kanonon, or the collection of John the Scholastic (Joannes Scholasticus), compiled at Antioch about 550, and the Nomocanons, or compilations of civil laws affecting religious matters (nomos) and ecclesiastical laws (kanon). One such mixed collection is dated in the 6th century and has been erroneously attributed to John the Scholastic; another of the 7th century was rewritten and much enlarged by the schismatical ecumenical patriarch Photius (883).
In the Western Church one collection of canons, the Collectio Dionysiana, exercised an influence far beyond the limits of the country in which it was composed. This collection was the work of Dionysius Exiguus, who compiled several collections that now go under the name Dionysiana. Dionysius appears to have done most of his work shortly after the year 600.[4] His collections contain his own Latin translation of the canons of the ancient third-, fourth- and fifth-century councils, excerpts from a (probably) confected collection of African canons (which Dionysius calls the Registrum ecclesiae Carthaginensis), and a collection of (38) papal letters (Epistolæ decretales) dating from the reign of Pope Siricius (384-398) to that of Anastasius II (died 498). The influence of this Italian collection grew enormously during the seventh and eighth centuries, especially in England and France. It was continuously enlarged and modified, the most famous modification being a version supposedly send by Pope Adrian I to Charlemagne in 774 and therefore known today as the Collectio Dionysio-Hadriana.
Besides the Dionysiana Italy also produced two 5th-century Latin translations of the Greek synods known as the Corpus canonum Africano-Romanum and Collectio prisca, both of which are now lost though large portions of them survive in two very large Italian collections known as the Collectio canonum Quesnelliana and Collectio canonum Sanblasiana respectively. In Italy was also produced a popular fifth-century collection of forgeries known today as the Symmachean forgeries. Africa possessed a late fourth-century collection known as the Breviarium Hipponense as well as an early fifth-century collection known as the Codex Apiarii causae; also the Breviatio canonum, or digest of the canons of the councils by Fulgentius Ferrandus (died c. 546), and the Concordia canonum of Cresconius Africanus, an adaptation of the Dionysiana (about 690). In Gaul many important collections were produced, like the collection known today as the Concilium Arelatense secundum and, at the beginning of the 6th century, the Statuta Ecclesiæ antiqua, erroneously attributed to Africa. Also from Gaul/France are the collections known today as the Collectio canonum quadripartita and the Libri duo de synodalibus causis composed by Regino of Prüm. Gaul/France also produced two immensely important collections known as the Collectio canonum vetus Gallica (compiled in Lyons about 600) and the Collectio canonum Dacheriana (about 800), the latter so called from the name of its editor, Luc d'Achéry. The Collectio canonum Hibernensis or Irish collection of canons, compiled in the 8th century, influenced both England, Gaul and (though much later) Italy.[5] Unlike almost every other region, England never produced a 'national' collection, though English personnel played an important role in copying and disseminating Irish and Italian collections in Germany and France.[6] Around the year 700 there developed in either England or Germany a collection of penitential canons attributed to Theodore of Tarsus, Archbishop of Canterbury (died 690). This collection marked a major advance in the development of penitential-canonical collections, which had already been in development for centuries especially within the Irish church. Collection like the one attributed to Theodore were known as penitentials, and were often rather short and simple, most likely because they were meant as handbooks for the use of confessors. There were many such books circulating in Europe from the seventh to the eleventh century, each penitential containing rules indicating exactly how much penance was required for which sins. In various ways these penitentials, mainly Insular in origin, came to affect the larger canon law collections in development on the continent.[7]
Iberia (i.e. Spain) possessed the Capitula Martini, compiled about 572 by Martin, Bishop of Braga (in Portugal), and the immense and influential Collectio Hispana dating from about 633, attributed in the 9th century to St. Isidore of Seville. In the 9th century arose several apocryphal collections, viz. those of Benedictus Levita, of Pseudo-Isidore (also Isidorus Mercator, Peccator, Mercatus), and the Capitula Angilramni. An examination of the controversies which these three collections give rise to will be found elsewhere (see False Decretals). The Pseudo-Isidorian collection, the authenticity of which was for a long time admitted, has exercised considerable influence on ecclesiastical discipline, without however modifying it in its essential principles. Among the numerous collections of a later date, we may mention the Collectio Anselmo dedicata, compiled in Italy at the end of the 9th century, the Libellus de ecclesiasticis disciplinis of Regino of Prum (died 915); the Collectarium canonum of Burchard of Worms (died 1025); the collection of the younger St. Anselm of Lucca, compiled towards the end of the 11th century; the Collectio trium partium, the Decretum and the Panormia of Yves of Chartres (died 1115 or 1117); the Liber de misericordia et justitia of Algerus of Liège, who died in 1132; the Collection in 74 Titles — all collections which Gratian made use of in the compilation of his Decretum
Developments since the Council of Trent[edit]
Jus Novissimum[edit]
After the Council of Trent, an attempt to secure a new official collection of church laws was made about 1580, when Gregory XIII charged three cardinals with the task. The work continued during the pontificate of Sixtus V, was accomplished under Clement VIII and was printed (Rome, 1598) as: "Sanctissimi Domini nostri Clementis papæ VIII Decretales", sometimes also "Septimus liber Decretalium". This collection, never approved either by Clement VIII or by Paul V, was edited (Freiburg, 1870) by Sentis. In 1557 the Italian canonist Paul Lancelottus attempted unsuccessfully to secure from Paul IV, for the four books of his "Institutiones juris canonici" (Rome, 1563), an authority equal to that which its model, the "Institutiones" of Emperor Justinian, once enjoyed in the Roman Empire. A private individual, Pierre Mathieu of Lyons, also wrote a "Liber Septimus Decretalium", inserted in the appendix to the Frankfort (1590) edition of the "Corpus Juris Canonici". This work was put on the Index.
Jus Codicis[edit]
Pio-Benedictine law[edit]
At the First Vatican Council several bishops asked for a new codification of the canon law, and after that several canonists attempted to compile treatises in the form of a full code of canonical legislation, e.g. de Luise (1873), Pillet (1890), Pezzani (1894), Deshayes (1894), Collomiati (1898–1901). Pius X determined to undertake this work by his decree "Arduum sane munus" (19 March 1904), and named a commission of cardinals to compile a new "Corpus Juris Canonici" on the model of the codes of civil law. The 1917 Codex Iuris Canonici (CIC, Code of Canon Law) was the first instance of a new code completely re-written in a systematic fashion, reduced to a single book or "codex" for ease of use. It took effect on 29 May 1918. It had 2,414 canons.
Johanno-Pauline law[edit]
In 1959, Pope John XXIII announced, together with his intention to call the Second Vatican Council and a Synod of the Diocese of Rome, that the 1917 Code would be completely revised.[8][9] In 1963, the commission appointed to undertake the task decided to delay the project until the Council had been concluded. After Vatican II closed in 1965, it became apparent that the Code would need to be revised in light of the documents and theology of Vatican II. After decades of discussion and numerous drafts, the project was nearly complete upon the death of Paul VI in 1978. The work was completed in the pontificate of Pope John Paul II. The revision was promulgated by the apostolic constitution "Sacrae Disciplinae Leges" on 25 January 1983, taking effect on 27 November 1983.[10] The subjects of the Codex Iuris Canonici (CIC, Code of Canon Law) are the world's 1.2 billion Catholics of what the Code itself calls the Latin Church. It has 7 books and 1,752 canons.
Oriental law[edit]
Distinct from this are the Eastern Catholic Churches. These Eastern Rites within the Catholic Church have a separate code of canon law, called the Codex Canonum Ecclesiarum Orientalium (CCEO, Code of Canons of the Eastern Churches) which incorporates certain differences in the hierarchical, administrative, and judicial fora.
Jus antiquum
- From the apostolic period, the Church used different collections of law but development of a single collection which could be used in all courts did not develop until the Middle Ages.
Jus novum
- The books of the Corpus Juris Canonici were derived from Gratian's work Decretum Gratiani and were integrated with papal decretals written from 1200 to 1500.
- 1234—Gregory IX promulgates the Decretals
- 1298—Boniface VIII published a similar code on 3 March 1298, called the Liber Sextus
- 1317—John XXII added to it the last official collection of Canon law, the "Liber Septimus Decretalium", better known under the title of "Constitutiones Clementis V", or simply "Clementinæ"
Jus novissimum
- 1566—Pius V begins a project to unify the collection of law. He wanted to ensure the use of authentic and reliable versions of the libri legales so that the administration of justice did not depend on the version of Gratian that a particular canonical court used. He assembled a committee of great canon law scholars who became known as the Correctores Romani. The Correctores were guided by Antonio Agustín of Spain. Pope Pius V did not live to see this project to completion.
- 1580 — Gregory XIII promulgates the finished version of the above (enforced until 1917)
Jus codicis
- 1904—Pius X appoints a commission to compile a code of canon law for the Latin Church
- 1917—Benedict XV promulgates a complete code, the 1917 Code of Canon Law (Latin: Codex Iuris Canonici)[11]
- 1918—The 1917 Code comes into legal effect[12]
- 1959—John XXIII announces that the 1917 Code would be completely revised.[8][9]
- 1983—John Paul II promulgates the 1983 Code of Canon Law,[13] abrogating the Code of 1917.[14]
- 1990—John Paul II promulgates the Code of Canons of the Eastern Churches (Latin: Codex Canonum Ecclesiarum Orientalium)

creamy split pea, carrot + sumac soup recipe {vegan}
Yesterday was one of those days where a roaring fireplace wouldn't have gone astray. The drizzle hung around most of the day, making me feel like I was back home in NZ. From the moment I woke I had soup on my mind. Growing up I'm pretty sure there was a constant supply of soup plopping away on the coal-range, filling the air with its homely smell throughout the cooler months. The boy is just like his dad and doesn't care much for soup, but as Si's away up north working the whole school holidays (I know, what?!) it was the perfect time to bust out the big pot and indulge mine and Ada's cravings for soup.
This soup couldn't be any easier. A base of olive oil, onion and garlic are cooked down, split yellow peas and grated carrots are added before turning it down to a gentle simmer and leaving it to do its thing. An hour later you're greeted with a huge potful of thick, stick-to-your-ribs hearty soup. The kind my Dad would have told us as kids will put hairs on your chest (um, no thanks Dad).
The sumac sprinkled over the top is the key to making a simple dish like this sing. I'm addicted to the stuff and find myself sprinkling it on virtually everything. But of course if you can't get your hands on some, a good squeezing of fresh lemon juice (from a lemon like this maybe!?! Haha) right before serving will give the soup a lovely lift and a similar tang.
creamy split pea, carrot + sumac soup
This is a super simple soup where the sumac really is the star of the show. You can find it at specialty grocery stores and some supermarkets. But if you really have no luck finding it, a little fresh lemon juice added right before serving will give the soup a lovely lift and similar tang.
Serves 4-6
1/4 cup (60ml) extra virgin olive oil
1 onion, peeled and finely diced
2 cloves garlic, peeled and finely chopped
2 large carrots, peeled and grated coarsely
2 cups (400g) yellow split peas
2 litres (8 cups) cold water
fine sea salt + freshly ground black pepper
sumac, to serve
extra virgin olive oil, to serve
Heat oil in a large saucepan over medium heat, add onion and cook gently for 2-3 minutes or until tender. Add garlic and carrot and cook for a further 2-3 minutes, stirring often until softened. Add split peas and cold water, bring up to the boil then reduce heat and simmer for 50-60 minutes, stirring occasionally throughout and more often towards the end. In the last 10 minutes of cooking season well with sea salt and black pepper. I like this served thick, but thin down with additional water if you prefer it a tad thinner. Serve hot, sprinkled generously with sumac and drizzle with extra virgin olive oil.

This looks so simple and delicious. I went over to my parents' house the other day to water their plants while they are on hols and stole a little pot of sumac from my Mum's spice cupboard to try - ha! - must be fate that I found this recipe :-)
ReplyDeleteI love your blog , split pea and sumac are two favorite elements in Persian cuisine , it brings a smile to my face whenever I see you've come up with something near Persian dishes , I'm definitely going to try this .
ReplyDeleteI really like sumac and I don't use it often enough. This soup sounds perfect for these cold days. (I know, I'm in Queensland and that's not REALLY cold.) :)
ReplyDeleteSeeing this recipe really brings home to me the fact that Australia is on the other side of the world! Definitely saving this recipe to brighten a grey and miserable day here! xx
ReplyDeleteYum, this looks utterly delicious. I am trying to eat more legumes again after years of restricting them on Paleo and this looks just the ticket.
ReplyDeleteSumac is such an interesting addition.
This dish smiles at traditional Persian cuisine, Emma.
Lovely! Lovely!Three of my wintery ingredients in a perfect combination of soup. Yum. Lovely recipe Emma. Hard to imagine that you'd need a fire though where you live. We definitely need one here this weekend in lovely southerly blown Wellington.
ReplyDeleteThere's something so enjoyably surreal about reading this post and imagining a roaring fire and soup-filled day as I sit here wilting in some especially uncomfortable summer humidity. There is an awesome soup joint just a couple blocks from my apartment, and it is a major weakness of mine in the fall and winter. It is their fault (ok, and maybe my fault too!) that I don't make soup at home more often. But when I do, it's one of my favorite things — stirring, tasting, and seasoning, and taking in all the extra stove-top heat I can get. And I love everything about this soup in particular. (I'll take yellow split peas over their green counterparts any day of the week.) I can't wait to make it in the colder months!

"In Tulare County, CHARACTER COUNTS! has a long history of community support from a diverse range of education, law enforcement, media, faith-based, private sector and civic organizations. We are always delighted to see the community support grow, and this year it comes in the form of a partnership with the Visalia Rawhide," said Tulare County superintendent of schools Jim Vidak. "We are particularly excited that the Rawhide chose to help us create a character education program promoting good sportsmanship through their 'adopt-a-player' program. We look forward to working with the Rawhide and Tulare County schools to reinforce the message that CHARACTER COUNTS! on and off the field."
Through this partnership, the Rawhide will be sending their players into the community via the newly formed "adopt-a-player" program. These players will be trained to convey the CHARACTER COUNTS! message throughout 25 Tulare County schools from April through August during the 2013 season. Rawhide general manager Jennifer Pendergraft believes this program will not only help shape the lives of Tulare County students but also the young men sent to play professional baseball in Visalia.
"Partnering with an organization like CHARACTER COUNTS! has been a vision for the Rawhide organization for several years now and we are very happy that this idea is coming to fruition," Pendergraft said. "Part of being a Minor League team is coaching the players -- off the field as well as on the field -- to be Major Leaguers. You see players like Craig Breslow and his Strike 3 Foundation for cancer research, or Orlando Hudson's C.A.T.C.H. Foundation for children with autism; those are the kinds of players we want to help the Diamondbacks produce. Training our players to speak to children here in Tulare County on the Six Pillars of Character is a great place to start and will hopefully instill those same characteristics in our team as well as the kids they're being role models for. This is a win-win partnership."
On May 29, the Rawhide will host CHARACTER COUNTS! Day at Recreation Ballpark. This day will feature special discounted tickets and food for school groups as well as interactive booths promoting the message of living a healthy lifestyle. Select students from all schools in attendance that day will receive special on-field recognition, awards and prizes provided by the Rawhide and CHARACTER COUNTS!

Re: Paella recipes
One thing to mention is there are two types of chorizo and they are NOT interchangeable. Mexican chorizo is good for very little but tacos. Do not use it for Paella! If you can't find chorizo and you want some sausage I would use andouille it will have a different flavor, but not too bad. Heck the thing I like about Paella is it is kind of like a stir fry, you can throw what ever you have on hand in the cooler. Don't get upset about not having an ingredient, with the possible exception of saffron and short grain rice. Lots of folks like there shrimp shelled, that is OK, but if you do that sauté the shells in olive oil with a bit of onion and garlic, then pour the stock over them and simmer it for around 10 min, or so. This will give the taste of the shrimp shells and heads (if you live somewhere that you can get head on shrimp). I hate to see someone throw away shrimp shells. I keep clam juice around too, that can supplement or replace the broth.
Some additions I like to put into mine is fresh sweet corn on the cob (cut into 1 inch sections can be raw or leftover) mushrooms, lima beans, zucchini especially baby zucs with the blossom still on, broccoli, leeks, ramps, pretty much what ever fresh stuff I have around. I know that it may veer off of what is officially accepted, but if it is fresh and good then throw it in!
And any good sized saute pan will work, though a paella pan does seem to be best. When I ran a Spanish restaurant we did it in a standard carbon steel pan and transferred it to a ceramic presentation plate. I wanted to order real pans but the chief did not want them.

After Trier, we headed to Cologne to see the cathedral. Cologne is a big city and we had a heck of time finding the parking and then lugging our stuff into the hotel--a little stressful :). Once we got settled, we headed straight to the cathedral. It's a bit like the grand canyon in that you can't appreciate just how big it is until you experience in person. I couldn't get far enough back to get the ...

On the subject of the weather, it was so warm for the time of year, I had taken a coat and a jumper as I thought I would be cooler than it was, I didn't wear my coat once all the time I was in Dusseldorf, it was average 23deg, I got the impression the locals were used to the weather being a little warmer as many people were walking about in coats. I ...

Day Trip to Cologne and Düsseldorf
... We took another regional train to Duesseldorf at 3:30. In the train station, we decided to stop for Dunkin' Donuts. I asked (on a whim) if they had anything vegan (no milk or egg) and they looked at me like I was crazy and said it was all vegan. They told me the ingredients and I was so happy. I got a powdered strawberry filled donut and the group set off for the old city, except for Colleen who went to meet a friend for a barbeque.

A former Minnesota actor is currently looking for work. Justin Kirk, who got his start on Twin Cities stages, found out Thursday that his NBC sitcom, "Animal Practice," will be yanked off the air on Nov. 14 with no plans of it coming back. It will be replaced by "Whitney."
"Practice"'s Wednesday night episode only drew 3.8 million. The series had taken some ridicule for seemingly putting more attention on a monkey than on Kirk's character, a tactless veteranarian. "Practice" is the second network show this season to get the axe. CBS gave up on "Made in Jersey" earlier this month.
I had lunch with Kirk a few weeks before the show's highly touted debut and asked him about the possibility of the show not catching on.
"Either we're going to be done and people will say, 'Remember that stupid show with the monkey?'" he said. "Or we're going to be a cool show that just happens to have Crystal (the monkey) on it."
I suggested that the monkey's presence might let him off the hook. People will remember it as "The Monkey Show," not "The Justin Kirk Show."
"That's a good point," he said. "I get to skate away."
