As a food blogger, I spend a lot of time in the kitchen. In fact, some days I spend the entire day in the kitchen. While I absolutely love recipe developing and creating fun new ideas, it sometimes gets kinda boring in there. I typically have the radio on, but I feel like the stations just replay the same songs again and again. But recently I discovered The Chew, a food show that airs at 1e|12p|c on ABC, and this has been a fun addition to my daily routine! The hosts are engaging, and the food and recipe topics always sound delicious. Let me tell you…The Chew has been an entertaining way to break up the day!
While each episode that I've watched has been enjoyable, I was particularly struck by one of the episodes earlier this week where the hosts remade a number of different Old Fashioned Favorites, including Oven Fried Chicken and Creamy Peanut Butter Cookies. But I've always had a weakness for a delicious burger and fries. As a kid, I ordering hamburgers almost exclusively when we would go out to eat. And I still love a good burger and fries! So I was particularly intrigued when Carla Hall, one of the hosts on The Chew, used a simple meatloaf recipe for hamburgers. I loved that Carla put a twist on the ordinary by using meatloaf, a classic winter-time dish, to make delicious burgers, a summer-time staple around my house. (Ok, who am I kidding? Burgers are a staple in our house year-round!) Check out the link below to watch the entire episode, and then Tune In: Fresh Daily. 1e|12p|c on ABC for other episodes.
In the same episode, Carla also demonstrated a recipe for Seasoned Fries. If you've never made homemade fries, then now is the time! As you know, fries don't hold their texture well over time, so it's best to eat them right away…and there's nothing better than making your own and serving them straight out of the pan! Carla's seasoning mix is quite simple, and you can always adapt the various spices to your own tastes. Some mandolins feature the ability to make fresh-cut waffle fries, but if you don't have this type of mandolin, then you can easily make "regular" stick fries…trust me, they'll be just as delicious!
Speaking of delicious grilled food, I've also included a clip below where the hosts of The Chew discuss how to keep Grilled Chicken juicy, create a tasty Grilled Cantaloupe + Garden Veggie Salad, and whip up a refreshing Watermelon and Cucumber Drink. Carla even talks about using peeled cucumbers as ice cubes…creative!! Put all three of these together, and that sounds like a pretty amazing summer meal!
Hopefully these recipes and ideas have inspired you to create some delicious new summer dishes! Don't forget to spend summertime with The Chew! The show airs weekdays at 1e|12p|c.

Old parchment texture
I thought Id post up a tutorial for the method I use to make old stained parchment for use as a base on maps and other projects. I work with Photoshop though Im sure the techniques used here can be used on other software like Gimp.
So to start, pick a size for the image. I tend to work in 300 dpi as I often print the resultant images and thats the best resolution to go with for print. If youre only going to use them on-screen you can go down to 100 dpi. For this example Im using a standard A4 size, though can use anything.
Add a second layer, call it Base and fill it with a good parchment colour. You can use anything though I used ede0c6 or mine.
Add three layers on top of this, naming them (from top-down), light, medium and dark, respectively. Fill them with progressively darker colours, like khaki, tan to dark brown. For mine I used e9c78a, b99c5e, and 372b24 respectively.
Add a layer mask (reveal all) to the three layers as well as clipping masks to the Base layer.
Apply a Filter -> Render -> Clouds to the light, medium, and dark layers. Now here comes the interesting part. Make sure the mask on the light layer is selected (rather than the layer itself) and go to Image -> Adjustments -> Levels. The captured dialog will appear:
Moving the black slider (on the left) to the right increases the black in the image. Moving the white slider (on the right) to the left increases the white. Since were doing this on a reveal all mask layer, the black will hide the layers colour. Chose an amount youre comfortable with. Went with values of 98 and112 for black and white, respectively.
Do the same for the other two layers, choosing more black for the medium layer, and again more for the dark layer, respectively. You should end up with something like this:
Now, use Filter -> Blur -> Gaussian Blur on each of the layer masks. I used 5.0 on mine, though can use whatever looks right to you, even changing the amounts on each of the three layers. The masks are looking a bit too prominent, so I changed the opacity of the layers, decreasing as I got darker. I went for 60%, 50%, 40%, respectively on mine.
Attachment 47499
Now its time to add some detail. I added a rock texture (using a default photoshop rock texture) and two layers above it, Noise and Burn. Both layers were filled with 50% grey with the layer mode set to soft light (which makes 50% grey invisible, making it great for adding subtle effects). The texture layer mode was set to Linear burn with an opacity of 25%.
Make sure the Burn layer is selected and, use the burn tool to make the edges darker, as youd expect with old paper. Now select the Noise layer and add use Filter -> Noise -> Add Noise and use a monochromatic Gaussian noise. I set mine to around 10%.
Looking at the paper, the layer masks are still somewhat prominent, so I played around with the opacities> I also grabbed a large soft-edged eraser, and erased parts of the centre of the light, medium, and dark layers, making sure the layers and not the masks were selected. The great thing about this is that you can turn it into an action to make textured pages very quickly. Add some nice grunge brushes to this (which you can use in black/white on a 50% grey soft light layer) and youll end up with something like this:
Hope this helps

Bipartisan Rejection, Populists and the Grassroots
What's most interesting about the failed bailout plan is that it was such a bipartisan decision. Until yesterday I had no idea that 95 Democrats would oppose the plan. After supposed "leader" Nancy Pelosi ransacked many Republicans for their hardcore stance against the bailout, you would have thought her people would come through. Not so much.

Harry Styles Speaks On Taylor Swift Split
February 18, 2013 03:10 PM by Megan Wilson
While Taylor Swift spoke in a fake British accent at the 55th Annual Grammy awards, she has yet to speak out about the X Factor guest star's break-up with Harry Styles. Harry, however, dished to a radio station in London about the demise of their relationship. Keep reading for the details!
Harry Styles and Taylor Swift have been over for about a month now, and Harry appeared on London's Capitol FM radio to gush about his new single, "One Way Or The Other", when the subject turned to Taylor. When asked how the singer was handling the split, Harry said, "I'm okay, thank you for asking. I'm good."
When the radio DJ asked if Styles had any thoughts on the rumored Grammy jab, Styles replied, "She's a great performer and she always performs great," Styles said of the Grammys moment. "She's always good on the stage. She's been doing it a long time. She knows what she's doing on stage. It was just another good Taylor Swift performance. It was good." (How many "Good"s can you have in one quote?
Harry was also asked how he was handling all the paparazzi attention. "I understand why people would want to know stuff like that, I get it. If someone does stuff like that then I want to know about it, too," he said. "I guess it just kind of. . . It is what it is, I guess."
While it may seem like it's coming up roses for Harry, both stars are desperately trying to avoid each other. Harry and Taylor were slated to practice together at Brit Awards before performing; however, plans were changed so the two wouldn't see each other. A source told The Sun, "It was a bit of an oversight to say the least. The original plans were drawn up a while back when Harry and Taylor bumping into each other wouldn't have been an issue. But they're had a bit of a rethink now. Mumford & Sons were meant to be rehearsing on the Monday with Emeli Sande and Ben Howard, but they were happy to switch.
"It could have caused a bit of a headache if the Mumfords kicked off, but fortunately they played ball."
Maybe the break-up isn't as amicable as we've been led to believe? What do you think? Let us know in the comments!

Well, I hate his band and think he is probably a cocky son of a gun because he is attractive…
…but he handled that very maturely. Unlike T-swift.

No Success but don't give up.
Thursday, June 06, 2013
Two years since my last entry and I was 275 pounds. Got off the scale today and was happy hat on my new effort I have lost 3 lbs and now I am 275 pounds. So often we want to say what is the use and the excuses come up - Diabetes, A-Fib, shortness of breath, High blood pressure and so on. The truth is my health is deteriorating as my body carries this excess weight. Do I want to Die??? The answer is NO!!! Right now I walk a quarter mile and have to catch my breath for several minutes, then I can do it two more times before being worn out.
My Spiritual daughter told me at the office, papa, do what you can, don't press beyond, BUT keep doing it. Such wonderful advice. We watch the hard bodies screaming no pain no gain and believe we have to keep up. NO I am 68 years old in another couple of months. A friend of mine, Peter Wagner said in his plenary speech at the ACEA summit said, "God has promised us 120 years, and even though I am 82 I plan on filling the goal or at least die trying."
There is no such thing as too old or too sick to care for your heath. This is not a weight or beauty issue at my age. It is about life and health issue.
The truth is I can look at my physical disability "A heart that is always malfunctioning." and comfort myself in pity or I can do my best and realize that my heart speed in 10 minutes is what the fit ones try to achieve in 30. Hey that is a positive. Add to it eating right and this time around I see success.

Amen! So proud of you! AND you are right! Half the battle is within ourselves and the dread that paralyzes us. But once you remain consistent over time, you will begin to see changes in your mental and emotional outlook as well as your physical stamina! Our bodies are fearfully and wonderfully made! Keep up the Good Work and you won't be disappointed! :)

At the end of October, 2011, I was just off a ventilator, taking 22 pills every morning to keep things ticking (including my heart which tried to run away at high speeds without me for a while), unable to move my legs, and with very little strength in my arms and back. Now I'm walking 2 to 3 miles three times a week, doing aerobics on the alternate days, doing strength training and stretching. I'm actually having a hard time getting my heart rate up to my target range! And I only have trouble with my breathing when I eat too much salt. All because of exercise. I'm no athlete, but life sure is better and easier now than it was then. Exercise, diet, they're hard but so very worth the effort. Stick with it, you deserve to feel better.

Every step counts. I read an article a while back about a man who started walking around his dining room table because that was all he could do. He started out with once around several times a day and gradually increased it. Over time he was able to increase his walking to going down the driveway, then down the street and beyond. Keep working on it. The more weight you can get off the easier it will be on your heart.

Live Scoring | Facebook Photo Gallery
TULSA, Okla. – No. 6 Washington missed an opportunity on Thursday at round three of the NCAA Championships at the Tulsa Country Club. Improved conditions gave teams a better chance at scoring, but the Dawgs could not take advantage with round of 13-over 293 to drop back to 15th place.
The Dawgs made nine birdies on the afternoon as winds died down, but several key miscues and some cold putters led to poor scoring. After entering play in a tie for ninth, Washington struggled early on and could never make it up and now are 25 shots off the lead at 41-over 881 for the championship.
After two very windy days, 16 of the 24 teams had their best round of the championship in round three, but the Huskies were not one of them, leading to their tumble down the leaderboard.
No. 3 Duke rose to the lead with a round of 2-under 278, while No. 1 USC was the big mover shooting an identical round to the Blue Devils to move up to second, six shots off the lead. No. 7 Oklahoma who entered the day in the lead struggled and is now third 10 shots back. Four other teams are within 15 shots of the lead as there is plenty to be decided during Friday's final round.
SooBin Kim continues to be Washington's top player, although two late bogeys dropped her back into a tie for 20th. Kim finished with a round of 4-over 74, but bogeys on her final two holes dropped her to 7-over for the tournament.
Charlotte Thomas played the Dawgs best round on Thursday, making one birdie and one bogey on the way to an even-par 70. The Husky sophomore bounced back from a tough second round to move up the leaderboard into a tie for 35th at 9-over for the tournament.
After two solid rounds to open the tournament, Jennifer Yang struggled with her opening nine holes on the way to a 5-over 75. Yang made two uncharacteristic double-bogeys on the front, before getting it together for nine pars on the back. Still, the damage had been done as Yang dropped back to a tie for 52nd at 11-over for the tournament.
Ying Luo was the final Husky score used on Thursday, firing a round of 4-over 74. Luo five bogeys and a birdie and is now tied for 84th at 16-over for the championship.
Kelli Bowers could not maintain momentum after an opening birdie and finished with a 7-over 77. She is now tied for 116th at 23-over.
Washington will complete the NCAA Championships on Friday, beginning at 5:55 a.m., PT, off the first tee. The Dawgs still have plenty to play for as the look to move back into the top-10 for just the fourth time in program history.

One of the most important facets of the Love and Logic technique is empathizing with children when they get into difficulty. I will openly admit that this has been difficult for me to pull off, because I too quickly end up sounding sarcastic or insincere. That pretty much ruins what I'm trying to accomplish and over the years I've given up in frustration more often than succeeding.
The good people at Love and Logic suggest saying something like, "Bummer!" or "Oh dear." Find a phrase that works well with your own personality and use it all the time. This for some reason was hard to do, and I've tried a few different ideas out over the years but nothing has really fit. "Bummer" or "Oh dear" just aren't quite a perfect fit for us.
Tonight though, I think I hit on what will work for both me and the kids. It'll run something along the lines of "Oh man! That looks really difficult." or perhaps "Dude! That's a tough one."
There's more to the equation than just using the right words though. I think that not being angry is a big part of the success that Love and Logic parents enjoy. For me personally, getting to that point? Not so easy. And while I've attained a degree of calm in my life for now, there's no guarantee that I won't relapse into an angry fit here and there. (I just keep trying; and letting go of things that annoy.)
It's not completely clear why I'm handling things with more calm than in the past. Perhaps I'm finally growing up. Well. Sort of. I hope to continue to be annoying in my children's eyes young at heart for many years to come.
I bought an iPod last year and it has been quite popular with the children. I also bought a case for it, because keeping my possessions in mint condition is a value. Not so for the boys. They've been taking it out of the case and it is now scratched. On top of that, it's common to find the battery run down or they put it where I can't find it.
I sadly told them that they can't borrow my ipod anymore, because it's not being treated well enough. This morning I was pretty surprised to see my case in The Mercenary's hand, walking into church. He'd taken it to cover the iPod he bought (with his own money) last week. Talk about a double standard! i made a big deal of teasing him over the whole thing, but I wasn't really angry. Getting upset isn't going to take the scratch out, and hopefully he sees my side of things.
Or at least he will someday when he buys his own car and I ride in it eating a really crumbly snack and leave my drink and coat and papers in the seat. Heh.
Innnnn the meantime, I plan to keep saying "Dude!" or "Oh Man!!" and cultivate more empathy.

We just had a problem here with one of our users creating a mail filter on some spam. It seems that Zimbra by default selects 'any' as the choice and not 'all'.
This user's action was to Discard the mail, but the mail filter included his email address in the To field, so all mail addressed to him ended up being discarded.
Can the Zimbra guys change the default from 'any' to become 'all' by default if you right click and email and select 'Add Filter'?

In 2014-15, the publication's average press run was 9,074. The peak press run for 2014-15 was 11,547 (March 4, 2015 issue). The peak press run in Let's Play Hockey's first year in 1972-73 was 3,000.
However, given the close nature of the hockey community, and LPH's distribution in many sporting goods stores and ice arenas around the Midwest, Let's Play Hockey is read by many more than simply circulation numbers indicate. Many coaches, rink managers, and parents admit that each issue is often passed on from team to team, player to player, parent to parent, fan to fan. Estimates indicate that between two and ten additional readers see each individual edition of Let's Play Hockey, meaning as many as 110,000 hockey enthusiasts may see each issue. Below is how our distribution works:
Let's Play Hockey is read throughout the United States and Canada, with a heavy emphasis on the Midwest (see chart). Approximately 78 percent of the publication's readers reside in Minnesota, with an additional percent living in Wisconsin, Illinois, and Iowa. Other states that receive LPH regularly include North Dakota, South Dakota, and Nebraska, as well as many other states and Canadian Provinces.
Let's Play Hockey is also distributed at all major youth tournaments, as well as other special hockey events.
Since its inception in 1972, Let's Play Hockey newspaper has taken a leading role in helping advance the sport of hockey. By being actively involved, LPH broadens its influence and visibility, thus increasing the exposure of its advertisers.
Following are some of the ways Let's Play Hockey has been involved with the growth and promotion of the sport:
• The 15th Annual Let's Play Hockey International Expo in Las Vegas, October 16-17, 2012 was the largest buying show for the hockey industry.
• The 27th Annual Let's Play Hockey Expo, which will be held in St. Paul March 4-5, 2016, during the Minnesota State High School Boys Hockey Tournament

• Former sponsor of the United States Hockey League (USHL) Player of the Week and Player of the Year Awards
• Official provider of high school hockey rankings for the Associated Press
• Let's Play Hockey staff select the "Three Stars" at all Minnesota Wild home games
• Started the Let's Play Hockey Cup for top eight Bantam, PeeWee, 14U, and 12U B teams in Minnesota
• Established Foundation for the Development of College Hockey
• Former organizer of the American Hockey Coaches Association Annual Convention and Exhibits trade show
• Sponsor of several post-season awards banquets
• Host of the Commission for the Progression of Hockey Symposium
• Official program for the Division III College Hockey Showcase
• Produce the Minnesota Boys State High School Hockey Tournament Banquets
• Creator of the Reed Larson Award given to the state's top senior boys' high school defenseman
• Creator of the Mike Richter Award given to the top college goaltender
In addition to our newspaper, the Let's Play Hockey TV magazine show ran for 12 years. It was a 15-week television show on Fox Sports Net, Midwest Sports Channel, and Victory Sports Network, reaching approximately 2.7 million homes in the upper Midwest. As a result of its continued commitment to excellence and to the advancement of hockey, Let's Play Hockey is often referred to as "The Hockey Bible" of the United States.

Historical places to visit | Walking on Bruny | Food and Drink Attractions | Beaches
Administered by the Bruny
Island Historical Society.
Since the Bruny History
Collection was established during the Bicentennial year
of 1998, local history research has been ongoing with
most information coming from the monthly Historical
Society field excursions and discussion groups.
The History room has been
established primarily for the benefit of the past and
present community to provide a central point to meet,
bring friends and relatives to look at 'grass roots' of
family, or in the case of new arrivals, the location
they now occupy. The secondary purpose is to
provide visitors with an ideal venue to access the many
facts of Bruny Island history as it comes to life again
through the many displays available.
This is very much a
working History room. Subjects will come on line
and cross-referenced as time permits by a group of
dedicated and enthusiastic people, so there will always
be something new to see and read on your next visit.
All this
fascinating history is well presented in a series of:

"The Prime Minister declared earlier this year that Strasbourg must not "undermine its own reputation" by overruling national courts and is in danger of becoming a "small claims court" rather than dealing with serious violations.
You will all be pleased to know, and not one bit surprised, that our intrepid Prime Minister is already watering down the demands that we should be the master of our own decisions in our own courts by are own judges.
The latest draft of the planned reforms, suggests that key British demands have been toned down before full negotiations even start, all this after the court of Human Rights have made decisions that have been to the detriment of our country, particularly in the case of Abu Qatada and the Nigerian who raped a thirteen year old girl, after had completed his sentence ( the judge had ordered his removal after his release from prison) after appealing to all the courts it was deemed that he had made some friends, they could be considered his family and on that premise he could stay here.

While the Ouya "All-Access" pass might have delighted owners of the Android-powered micro-console, some developers were not happy about the promotion. The company unveiled the All-Access Pass which for a one-off payment of $59.99 granted users access to over 800 games available for the platform for a 12 month period.
Ouya stressed that this deal was not an annual subscription, but a one-time non-refundable payment. Once purchased the vast majority of Ouya shop content was marked down to $0.00. The deal applied to games priced at under $30 and does not cover in-app purchases. The company also said that it reserves the right to disqualify games or customers that it believes are "abusing the system during the duration of this program."
But the controversy surrounding the promotion – which was limited in scope and has already sold out – is that the people at Ouya didn't bother to talk to the content creators whose content it was handing over for $0.00. Developers who spoke about it publicly were not happy that they were automatically opted into the program without being offered a choice and that the promotion was never discussed with them prior to it launching.
For what it is worth, – as Gamasutra points out – developers will still receive their regular 70 percent of the full sale price for games that are downloaded under the plan.

How bad was this one?
Coach Dave Tippett pointed to one positive, then said, "After that, you could just take the rest of it and scrap it."
Raffi Torres called it a "real poor effort," berating himself for a turnover that led to a goal.
There was a lot of blame to pass around in the Coyotes' 5-0 loss to the Vancouver Canucks on Friday night in front of 14,569 at Jobing.com Arena.
The Coyotes' play was sloppy, uninspired and inconsistent - a 5-on-3 penalty kill was the bright spot - in their worst outing of the season.
"Our execution was so far below par that it just wasn't even a game, and that's what it comes down to, execution," Tippett said. "It's checking, it's with the puck, get engaged in the battle; the execution of winning a one-on-one battle was just non-existent.
"We didn't start very good, we didn't have a good middle, and we didn't end very good. That pretty much sums in up right there."
In the first 20 minutes, the Coyotes could not muster much of anything, a precursor for the rest of the night.
Goaltender Mike Smith took the brunt of a ferocious first-period attack by the Canucks, but he thwarted every opportunity. The Coyotes were fortunate to escape with a scoreless game after one.
"It was one of those things where we knew we had to get better," captain Shane Doan said. "Smitty had given us a chance. . . . It wasn't our best period, but we still had a chance. We got better, but by that time, we had just given them too much momentum."
In the second period, the Canucks scored goals in a span of 2:12 to put the game away.
The Canucks' Cory Schneider recorded his second shutout in a row, facing only 22 shots.
The Coyotes did pick up their intensity level to start the second period, but after they allowed the three goals in the first 7:13, that pretty much sealed it for Vancouver.
"I thought it was going all right until I turned it over to (Ryan) Kesler," Torres said. "You can't be doing that out there to that guy, personally just got to make a better play there. You can't give these guys turnovers; they're good, they're going to hurt you too much."
Tippett already was looking ahead to tonight's game against Dallas: "We're just going to have to be better. That's unacceptable, the way our team played, and we're going to have to better."
Key player: Canucks goaltender Cory Schneider recorded his second consecutive shutout.
Key moment: Canucks center Ryan Kesler stole the puck from the Coyotes' Raffi Torres and scored an unassisted goal to increase the lead to 2-0 early in the second period.
Key number: 2:12. Time span during the second period in which the Canucks scored three goals.
Everything the Coyotes could not afford to do, they did. They were fortunate that the score was tied after one period. Even with that, they failed to capture any momentum, making bad decisions and turning the puck over, and the Canucks took advantage. But they get exactly what they need tonight - a chance to make amends when they host Dallas.

50th Anniversary Box Set Incoming
News broke over the weekend that the 50th anniversary spoof The Five(ish) Doctors Reboot will finally be heading to DVD.
Colin Baker confirmed at the Myth Makers convention panel [via]. However, Baker said this would be part of a special 50th DVD set.
Further to this, a BBC DVD spokesperson has stated that Night, Day and Time of the Doctor are very likely to be included, though final confirmation of this is still pending. No mention of Name.
The release date is also still to be announced, though some of you will remember a "Collector's Edition" of The Day of the Doctor was originally mooted for around summer time.

NXP has introduced a LIN bus interface chip for simple identical control nodes in cars that take their identity from their position in a daisy-chain – so called 'node position detection'.
Intended for non-critical multi-colour LED modules that the firm predicts will decorate the inside of cars (see photo below), the modules have three low-current high-side LED switches that can be used for other applications.
"Whereas interior LED modules are currently programmed during the module manufacturing process, with node position detection all LED modules can be individually configured after being mounted in the car," said the firm. "This offers flexibility while reducing manufacturing logistics."
The chip, UJA1018, is designed to work with a local microcontroller and contains all components to interface the MPU to, and protect it from, the car's LIN bus and power rails.
As such, it has LIN transceivers, a 5V regulator, a reset generator, and three low-current high-side load switches – nominally for red, green and blue LEDs.
Also on-board is the 'LIN switch' needed for NXP's take on node position detection.
Rather than the LIN bus being connected in parallel to all the nodes in the system, it is only connected directly to the first node in the daisy-chain.
Data connection to each subsequent node in the chain is via the previous node's LIN switch.
When the chain is initially set-up, all switches are open so only the first node is connected to the bus master allowing it alone to be programmed with its bus address.
Once programmed – which is entirely done by the local MPU as there is no data processing or memory in the UJA1018 – the MPU instructs the chip to close the LIN switch, passing data onto the next node, allowing it to be programmed with its address, and so on.
If the MPU has flash, nodes only need be programmed once, rather than at every power-up.
Control from the MPU to the LIN switch and load switches is through individual I/O lines, with PWM from the MPU required for LED dimming.
Vehicle lighting firm Hella has used the chip in a demonstrator – pictured below.

by Marilyn Odneal, Horticulture Adviser
Hollyhock (Alcea rosea) is an old friend to many of us. It is a member of the hibiscus family and closely related to cotton and okra. These biennial or short lived perennial plants are tall and upright and most people remember them from grandma's house next to the barn. Actually, our librarian and outreach coordinator, Pam Mayer, remembers her father calling them "outhouse flowers." Hollyhocks, like Rodney Dangerfield, don't get the respect they deserve.
The large and lovely blossoms grow from large prominent buds borne singly up the stem. Each bloom remains open three or four days during late spring and early summer. As the four-week long blooming season progresses, the bloom front advances towards the top of the leafless stems.
Vickie Baumer, a graduate student working at the Missouri State Fruit Experiment this summer, told me that children can make little dolls out of the flowers by clipping and connecting an unopened bud for the head and an upside-down flower for the dress. Hollyhock doll dresses come in pink, purple, yellow, white and even black.
Single-flowered hollyhock blooms are to 3 inches across and have a protruding stamen column typical in the hibiscus family. The flowers produce large quantities of seed in round, flattened capsules. Double flowering types that look like pom-pom shower scrubbers are also available.
A native of Asia, the single flowered type was brought to England by the Crusaders during the middle ages. The Anglo-Saxon name for mallow, a related European species used for medicine, was "hoc." The name "hollyhock" developed from the original "holy hoc" brought home from the Holy Wars. Later, during the 1800s, the hollyhock became a favorite in Victorian gardens.
Even though hollyhocks are prone to problems such as rust, leaf spot, anthracnose, spider mites and Japanese beetles, they are easy to grow in sunny sites with fertile soil. Plants started in pots in the winter will flower the first season, but those that are sown outdoors in midsummer will flower the following spring. Individual plants may only live two years, but they will re-seed readily. Hollyhocks are tall and may require staking where they are not protected by a building or fence.
So show these lovely, old fashioned "outhouse" flowers a little respect. They can brighten up a cottage garden or perennial border as well as frame and anchor an out building or cottage and are absolutely beautiful in the right setting.

Volleyball Loses 3-0 To Jayhawks
Sept. 22, 2004
LUBBOCK, Texas - The Texas Tech women's volleyball team could not match the intensity of the No.21 Kansas Jayhawks, losing the match 3-0 in front of 808 Jayhawk fans at the Horejsi Family Athletics Center today. Kansas has won the last three meetings between the two teams.
The Red Raiders were led by freshman Amy Charlebois with 10 kills on a .286 hitting percentage. Sophomore Nina Miller tossed in six kills, on a .400 hitting percentage, in the losing effort. Tech tallied another four aces on the match, with Charlebois taking credit for two and junior Desiree Batista and freshman Emily Ziegler each tallying one.
In front of a hostile crowd, the Red Raiders started out game one with a 5-0 run to stun the Jayhawk fans. Two kills, by Charlebois and sophomore Nina Miller, combined with three Kansas attack errors led to Tech's early lead. Kansas began an offensive explosion of its own to come back and tie the game at 9-9. The Red Raiders would then fall victim to Kansas' strong block that would shut-down the Red Raiders three times within the next seven points. Kansas would remain ahead for the remainder of the game to take game one 30-24.
In game two, the Lady Raiders kept the Jayhawks within arms length, as they kept the game close at 6-4, Kansas lead. Tech would rally back behind an ace by Charlebois, and two hitting errors by Kansas' Josi Lima, to tie the game at 9-9. Kansas then rolled out eight points versus Tech's five to take command of the game at 17-14, answering the Red Raider offensive attack. The Jayhawks would continue to keep the Red Raiders at bay, taking game two 30-23.
The Jayhawks came out sluggish out of intermission, trading points with the Red Raider until 15-14, KU lead. It would then be all Kansas for the rest of the match. The Jayhawks continued to not allow the Red Raiders any breathing room, as they pushed the lead to 26-18. Kansas' strong play at the net would prove too much for the Red Raiders who would fall in game three 30-20, losing the match 3-0.
The Jayhawks were led by Lima with 14 kills and 14 digs to post the Jayhawks only double-double on the night. The Jayhawks, who entered the game ranked second as a team in blocking, out-blocked the Red Raiders 22-20. The stellar play by KU's Ashley Michaels with 13 kills and seven blocks also proved to give the Jayhawks the needed edge to sweep the Red Raiders at home. It would be the lopsided back-row play of the Jayhawks who posted 71 digs to the Red Raiders 37, proving to be the game breaker for Tech.
Ku moves to 10-1, 1-1 Big 12, while moving the Red Raiders to 5-4, 1-2 Big 12.
Texas Tech will next travel to Ames, Iowa, to battle the Iowa State Cyclones Sat., Sept. 25 at the Hilton Coliseum. The match against the Cyclones will wrap-up a two-match road trip for the Red Raiders before they return home for a match against Colorado Wed., Sept. 29.

Top Chef: Dale L. Calls his Elimination a "Compliment"
December 17, 2010 12:00 PM by Shayla Perry
When Dale L. and Stephen were both eliminated in Wednesday night's episode of Top Chef: All-Stars on Bravo, they didn't pull a "Jen Carroll" and angrily defend their losing dishes. In fact, in a recent interview with TVGuide.com, Dale said that his being eliminated in the show's double elimination episode was actually a compliment to him and his work. Find out why, and see what words of wisdom Dale L. had to impart on the remaining Top Chef: All-Stars cheftestants.
TVGuide.com: What was the thought process behind taking such a risk with your sweet veal dish?
Dale L.: Townhouse was so over-the-top and whimsical and funny and all those things. I think the rest of our team was really conservative. I went for peanuts and popcorn and I tried to go over-the-top and it didn't work out. We try to cook in our own style and to be pulled out of that was, I think, my demise. I went in very confident, but a little reticent about what I was trying to accomplish. It was go big or go home, and I got the a– end of that deal.
TVGuide.com: What did you think of the judges' decision?
Dale L.: I think they're doing want they can to be as fair and objective as possible. In seeing the episode, to me, it felt like they flipped a coin. I feel like if it was a single elimination instead of a double, I would have been there. My dish was too sweet. I agree with the judges. I used store-bought chicken stock, and I make everything from scratch, so when I reduced it, it became too bitter. The dish was supposed to be sweet and savory, so I dumped it out to make more stuff edible.
TVGuide.com: You said in your exit video that it was an honor to be eliminated. What did you mean?
Dale L.: When the challenge is to cook in another chef's style, I take being eliminated as a compliment because I couldn't. I cook in my style. When you have to switch out and not cook as yourself, the fact that I failed is a compliment because it means I'm so ingrained in what I do, and that's what you have to do as a chef. It means my career is on the right track.
TVGuide.com: How would you compare your experience on All-Stars to your first go-around?
Dale L.: My first season was a blast. I had so much fun and made amazing friends. Sara Nguyen from Season 3 is my roommate, my sous chef and an amazing cook. So if it was not for Season 3, I would not have my best friend. On All-Stars, we all sort of knew each other and there was a lot of boys club s— going on, and it seemed like a lot of chefs' self-worth seemed to be banking on their failure or success on that show. I'm just not that person. There's no shame in being eliminated from Top Chef: All-Stars. Every one of us is there for a reason. So finish with dignity. I will say this to all my other fellow contestants: You're all awesome, bow out with pride. It's not the end of the world.

ELCA: 4.5 million members, $2.6 billion in offerings in 2009
The ELCA reported a baptized membership of 4,543,037 in 10,348 congregations in 2009. The ELCA Office of the Secretary and ELCA Research and Evaluation extract these numbers from analysis of membership and income data in parochial reports submitted by ELCA congregations each year.
ELCA Secretary David D. Swartling said in a report that data indicate a 2009 decline of 90,850 members and 48 congregations-slightly more than membership declines in the preceding two years.
Total receipts for ELCA congregations exceeded $2.6 billion in 2009, down 2.94 percent from 2008, according to the report. However, reported total assets of ELCA congregations actually grew in 2009 by 1.2 percent to $20.9 billion, the report said. Funds held in endowments and memorials also increased to almost $1.2 billion in 2009. Average giving per baptized member grew 2.8 percent in 2009 to $492, the ELCA secretary reported.
Swartling said that 2009 was a turbulent year nationally and internationally, and that "the ELCA certainly had its share of turmoil."
Despite the challenges, "ELCA members have continued to be remarkably steadfast in their giving, and many ELCA congregations remain surprisingly healthy from an economic perspective," Swartling said. "We must not forget that by the world's standards we remain a wealthy church that must continue to look for innovative ways to translate that wealth into effective ministry through this whole church to God's world."
The secretary's report said the average number of people in worship in ELCA congregations declined slightly from the previous year. A total of 1,289,967 people or 28.39 percent of baptized ELCA members attended weekly worship in 2009. That number was 1,330,709 (28.71 percent of baptized members) in 2008, the report said.
For the first time parochial reports asked congregations to provide information about the number of people participating in the congregation's ministry, not simply members, Swartling said. "Our hope is that we will be able to develop more meaningful data in the future based on participation," the ELCA secretary said. "It also will allow us to link congregations more effectively to take advantage of particular strengths in their ministries."
In this new category congregations reported 2,527,941 people participating in congregational activities. More than 35 percent of ELCA congregations reported African American/Black participation and 32 percent reported Latino participation.
The number of congregations reporting more than 5 percent multicultural membership has also risen, the report said. "Many ELCA congregations continue to be proactive in their efforts to be intentionally inclusive," Swartling added.

text: hello ammo canners.. I recently started reloading using some older equipment from a relative and I am not to positive that my powder scale (old redding with hyd damp) is at it's best for accuracy. I am considering purchasing a scale of my own and I would like some input if anyone has some on the Hornady gs1500. Any word, (good or bad) is helpful. Thanks
