Zucchini Patties
1 large zucchini, grated
1 small onion, finely chopped
1 clove garlic, minced
5-6 white or cremini mushrooms, finely chopped
3 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
salt and pepper, to taste
bread crumbs, as needed
1-2 teaspoons flour, optional
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F, if baking. Add some salt to the grated zucchini and allow it to drain for a few minutes in a colander to remove excess moisture.
2. In a mixing bowl, combine the zucchini, onion, garlic, mushrooms, parsley and oregano. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
3. Add enough bread crumbs so that the mixture sticks together well enough to form patties. I find that adding the small amount of flour helps the mixture stick together better. The mix should make about 8 (4") round patties depending on the size of the zucchini used.
4. Cook the patties in one of two ways: pan fry them in a bit of oil or lightly spray a baking sheet with nonstick spray and bake for about 20 minutes, or until nicely browned.
Serve these as a side dish to accompany your favorite pasta or rice dish. They are great as is or with a little marinara sauce. They also make great sandwiches with a good Italian bread and marinara sauce. Enjoy!!
Loved this recipe. Really good flavor. I'm trying to find ways to get my husband to eat more veggies and this recipe worked out great with whole wheat spaghetti and marinara sauce. I added diced red peppers and used lots of bread crumbs and just a tad bit more flour. You really do need to squeeze the zucchini to get out all the liquid. Baked it at 400 degrees for 20 minutes.
My roommate and I LOVE this recipe...she is taking some to her daughter... 1 T. chopped jar garlic, 1T. dried parsley, 3 t. Italian seasoning, 1/3 c. oat bran, 3T or more as needed whole wheat flour and I added 1 t. crushed red pepper flakes. I did drain the zuc. with salt in a colander but had to push it to get the liquid out. I refrigerated the patties for about 5 mins. Then I sort of flash fried them in a hotter oil so they were crispy on the outside and softer on the inside. We all agree, they taste like cornbread stuffing! Yummy, thanks for the recipe!
As is, this recipe is yukky. It totally fell apart in the oven. I transferred it to a fry pan with a little oil, added a little more flour and it turned into crumbles. Useless. I think some sort of potato or egg replacer is needed.
I would not make this again. Bummer, because it sounds good on paper.
This is a great recipe. I had leftovers and just re-heated them in a frying pan the next day for breakfast with tofu scramble. Delicious!!!
Thanks for helping me use up my crisper full of zucchinis.
;)b I thought this was a great recipe! I think the garlic was a little overpowering and i may omit it next time and add a dash of garlic powder instead. I put some vegan parm cheese on top and a little spaghetti sauce and it was yummy, i was just not in a ketchup mood. Plain or dressed up, these are great!!!! I will probably make them again very soon. Yum. Oh, i used italian seasoned bread crumbs and i thought it added a great touch, and reduced the seassonings. The squash needs to be drained and patted dry, or these will be too wet.
These were really tasty. I'll definitely make them again. I oven-baked them though and the zucchini and parsley discoloured and it didn't look all that appetising, though that was improved with a little tomato sauce and parsley on top. Next time I think I'll fry them.
I also made a few modifications. I fried the onion, mushrooms and garlic before adding them to the rest of the ingredients. They weren't coming together, so I added a little extra flour and eventually some ground flax mixed with water as an egg-substitute. Very good stuff.
Delicious! The straining process is VERY important if you want your patties to hold together. I think I will use more flour next time, and perhaps weight the zucchini to drain it better. However it's well worth "tweaking" the quantities for another time.
YUMMERS! these were sooo good. I cooked the onions, mushrooms and extra garlic together before adding it to the zucchini. I also used flour as well as panko bread crumbs, no parsley. Great flavor.
THIS RECIPE IS fantastic i had to use an egg replacer to hold all my ingredients together, but they turned out amazing! i also threw in some dried kale to absorb some of the extra moisture from the zuchini (instead of soaking in salt). and i used our fresh basil instead of dried herbs... i baked them in the oven on a greased cookie sheet, put it in a flour tortilla and it was a perfect meal! my 2 year old daughter ate the WHOLE thing (rarely happens). Thank you for the post!

Friends of the Peak tend to be doers more than talkers. The annual schedule of projects attests to that. We build trails, we maintain trails, we close social trails, we restore eroded areas. But in all that, we're trying to be good stewards of the natural environment on Pikes Peak. Building trails, which entails cutting down trees, clearing plants, exposing soil, seems almost contrary to that. But getting people out into nature builds appreciation for all nature offers, which leads people to want to protect it. If people are using an area anyway, routing all, or most of, that use on one, sustainable, trail reduces the wear in the area. Maintaining trails helps reduce erosion, and keeps trails usable, providing the benefits of enjoying nature. Our advocacy tends to express itself in action more than in words. When we see a problem, we don't just point it out, we offer to help fix it, and, if the offer is accepted, do it.
But sometimes words are necessary. Sometimes an issue arises. Sometimes we notice a problem that is beyond our abilities or scope. Then we try to be good stewards by evaluating environmental effects, not to exclude human use, but to balance the two, perhaps with something of a bias toward the environment. Because of our partnerships, working in cooperation with agencies, organizations tend to listen to us. So we can use all that trail work we've done to make our voices better heard when necessary.
Perhaps FOTP president Paul Mead summarized it best: "We try to minimize human impact while maximizing human enjoyment."

Islambul, Hittite genocide, return of Hittite Turks to Hattusha and back to Turan
Reader comment on item: Does Turkey Still Belong in NATO?
Submitted by Ianus (Poland), May 4, 2009 at 06:27
BERKA AKK wrote :
"It was founded in 667 B.C. by the Greek colonists from Megara under king Byzas , son of Nisos"
>667 bc One day Byzas was going around bosphorus and decide to built a city.so simple.<
Not really. The place was well known to the Greeks from time immemorial. Have you ever heard of Jason and the Argo? These parts had been explored long before and on the Asiatic coast of the Bosphorus there had already been the city of Chalcedon founded in 675 also by Megara. The problem was not 'going around" but choosing the best location in the known region. Byzas was clever enough to realize the Chalcedonians chose a wrong place for their colony. He was right. The father of Alexander the Great besieged it in vain.
> Foundation of a city does not smimiliar to make a football team.<
It is fairly well know to those interested in the subject how the Greeks and Romans founded their cities. It was a religious act first and foremost which included marking the boundaries of a polis (city) and of the temple precincts which was done on a specific propicious day. This day was later celebrated as the foundation date of the city and was preserved with paricular veneration and celebrated by the local people and priests. Hence the dates Herodotus or Thucydides have meticulously collected on the spot and quoted are fairly accurate. Building a temple , in case of Byzantion it was Poseidon's temple as Byzas family claimed to have descended from the god of seas and earthquakes, was accomplished over a longer period, particularly if the temple was more than just a shrine.
After 1000 years the city was re-founded as "New Rome" or "Constaninoupolis" on A.D. 21.04.330.
> There are still new excavations in istanbul historical bases dates back to 7000 years ago.It is the transition point of makind and used nearly 50 000 years.see national geo tv.<
And of course the Turkish archaelogists have already found Turkish DNA there which brilliantly 'supports' state-sponsored theory of Turkish origin of everything, what ?
Even in Rome there are traces of human habitation going back thousands of years before B.C. 753, yet who would call them "Rome" before Romulus?
But again the Turkish archaelogists' only task is to find (or invent if they don't find what they are told to to do) evidence supporting the Turkish theory. If someone dared deny it, he would lose his job and face trumped-up charges of 'denigration of Turkishness' with known consequences. We know how "Turkish science" works, don't we?
"With this argument in mind one can easily kick the Turks out of Anatolia back into the Karakorum desert telling them after the fact "It all depends on historical conditions ... and they have changed , you know."
> Exactly you are right.They had tryed to kick many times and when have enough power will try again.
Yes... these Armenian militarists with their 3 000 000 inhabitants and 29 000 km2 pose a deadly threat to 780 500 km2 and 76 000 000 Turks with no weapons, no real army, peace-loving mentality of their inhabitants, concistent record of Turkish innocence and virtue suffering from defamation ... Add the masses of PKK terrorists lurking everwhere and the 15 000 men strong Cypriote Guard responsible for the Turkish genocide in Cyprus and now opposed by underpaid, unarmed and lax 40 000 strong Turkish army of occupation ... Turkey must be vigilant , the army must get a lion's part of the budget moneys ... The new Turkish slogan is no more 'Peace at yurt, peace at world" but "Less bread, more weapons!!! Higher wages for generals, lower wages for archaeologists! Kick them out before they kick us out!"
"another Grek name "Istanbul" (=EIS THN POLI) with a specific narrow meaning but allegedly better Turkish sounding, was adopted to designate Constantinople"
>This made me to remember sun langage theory.if you like we can discuss it.<
The Turks have their own etymology of 'Istanbul', don't they ? ... Let me see ... it's a dialectical variation of "Islambul" , from "Islam" - you know the dreamland for terrorists- and the Turkish verb "bulmak" - "to find" "to reach", "to achieve" or "Islamı bul" or simply "Find Islam!!!" The name clearly refers to frequent conversions -some voluntary some otherwise - that took place here since this ancient Turkic city of at least 10 000 years came back by bequest to their true owners - the Turks in 1453.
"One could wonder why the Turks suddenly are so fond, appreciative and enthusiastic about the 'lost populations', mysterious ancient nations of the Hittites, the Phrygians while they detest and deny all historical rights to their homes to the historically excellently documented nations of the Armenians and the Greeks"
> I dont want to start a new discusion but if iou like we can.when the turks had come to anotolia said populations had been exterminated hundreds of years ago. <
"Exterminated" ? How well you know what happened "hundreds of years ago"! ... Anyway, if they had been exterminated, then the Turks could not descend from them and ATATURK WOULD HAVE BEEN WRONG which he NEVER was !!! It would be an insult to Turkishness to say so!
>this is another serious subject.<
You keep speaking of 'serious topics' and all of them as you expose them turn out on closer examination to be a miserable farce.
"Turkish historical dogmas according to which Turks are native (sic!) to Anatolia because they descend directly from the Sumerians and the Hittites and the Phrygians. Turkish is after all the pre-language of humanity, both Sumerian and Hittite are of Turkic origins and modern Turks are 'legitimate' heirs to these populations, as Ghazi Kemal taught."
> Continental human migration due to various reasons is comon in history. Origins of american natives almost proven to come from various parts of asia through bering sea. Anyway origins of all humans ofcourse can reach up to one language. <
What you are driving at are not general anthropological considerations but a justification for the farcical jingoistic Turkish theory of Turkish supremacism and Turks as the originator of all civilization. Anyway, go on if patriotic anti-scientific Turkish nonsense makes you so happy!
> From a different point of view there has been some unproven evidences about the return of a oguz turks to anadolia back.<
If "unproven", then it's no 'evidence', I'd presume. But if it is, then I'll rather call "a fairy tale" "an unproven history". Conjectures are quite legitimate unless they so grossly offend common sense as Turkish pseudo-historical fantasies do.
"Return" ? Around A.D. 1071 ? ... afer overruning the Gaznavid and encroaching upon the Abbasid and Fatimid caliphates? ... Interesting return ... after how many millenia?...
>who knows they had been kicked before from anatolia .and they escaped from a extermination work... <
"Native Turks" in Anatolia "before" their return to enter their ancient inheritance ... all thanks to escaping from an "exterminatation work" ?... all according to "the unproven evidence" ,of course, which is now the certainty in the Turkish national consciousness ...
Before that the Turks believed in the miraculous flight of the porphet from Mecca to Jerusalem and his splitting the moon (aren't Turkish astronomers still looking for the evidence of it?). But now they have another blithe miracle -that of a happy return of miracuoulsy saved Hittite-Seljuks to their ancient home around Iconium ... But imagine that those Hittite-Turks back at home are dreaming now of returning and taking inheritance of another homeland of theirs - Turan! ... But where haven't the Turks got their homeland and inheritance to claim ? ...
What a comedy of errors ... with a racially and religiously happy end !
> As far as i guess you dont want to enter into this subject.<
Why? I start liking the modern Turkish fairy tales. I found their ancient ones very boring and disgustful instaed ...you know this zoophilia where Ashina impregnates a she-wolf at least ten times to produce the heads of the main turkic tribes ... Now we have the noble Turkish-speaking Hittites and Phrygians escaping the Hittite and Phrygian genocides by the Armenian-Achean-Medan invaders and then returning home to restore justice, take back their ancient inheritance and impose peace and happiness at home and in the world and eventually to produce the superhuman super-turk ATATURK as the last emanation of all the sublime qualities which the pan-human Turkic civilization has ever produced ...
Waiting for more of your bedtime stories with impatience ...!

I was reminded recently at the funeral of a loved one, of a simple phrase that carries special meaning in my family, "when our ship comes in." As the phrase was repeated in a family story retold during the eulogy, my mind drifted to local history and wondered perhaps, if the story could be documented. With a little bit of research, the following intertwined tale unfolded.
It began with the building of a steamboat named Claire. Built in 1918, the wooden hulled boat was assembled from parts of other boats long retired. Her steering lever was salvaged from the Elmore and her distinctive deep-throated whistle from the second Hassalo. At a length of 157 feet and a width of 34 feet she was built for towing on both the Willamette and Columbia Rivers. By the time of her retirement in 1952 she was the last operative steamboat on the upper Willamette able to navigate through the locks at Oregon City.
Seven years before she was built, the father of our story William Boyd Fergus was born in land-locked Garland, Utah. He married Cleone Cutler on June 27, 1935 at the height of the Great Depression. Their honeymoon was spent in a humble sheep wagon in the mountains near Black Pine, Idaho where Boyd worked cutting fence posts. Then they moved in with Boyd's family. In 1937, their first child Darwin was born.
Hoping for a better life, with a home and land of their own the family decided to take advantage of a federal program through the Farm Credit Administration and relocate to North Plains, Oregon. For the first time in their married life they had a home of their own and with funds from the government loan they were able to build a large barn and purchase the livestock they needed. Two more children joined the family, Dorothy and Howard. Boyd's brother Marion Fergus moved to Oregon as well. Prosperity seemed just around the corner, then misfortune struck.
In 1939, a year after taking possession of the North Plains property, Boyd's father in Idaho grew ill and died. As the eldest of his family Boyd made several trips back and forth to Idaho traveling along the original Columbia River Highway. First to keep his father's farm running and provide for his mother and sister, then to bury his father and move his mother and sister to Oregon. While he was gone Cleo and Boyd's brother struggled to keep the farm and growing herd of dairy cows going. Boyd's brother proved unreliable, missing several milk pick-ups arranged by the local dairy cooperative. By 1941 the family had lost their dream. The land and buildings reverted to the government and they were forced to move to the nearby town of Roy. They became tenant farmers, and continued to move every few years.
During World War II Boyd picked up an extra job in the Kaiser shipyards in Portland. The family felt more prosperous for a time despite rationing and other wartime restrictions. Two more children were added to the family, Monty and Gary. When the war ended, Boyd was laid off and answered an ad in the newspaper for a herdsman for Rivercrest Jersey Farm and dairy outside Wilsonville, Oregon. The Rivercrest Jersey Farm was a hobby farm for a rich Portland radio executive that bred Jersey cows for the high concentration of butterfat in their milk. The job came with a rather mercurial, cantankerous boss and a drafty two-story house that had the dubious reputation of being struck by lightning numerous times throughout its history. But it did have a beautiful view of the Willamette River.
So, what does this have to do with the steamboat Claire? Throughout the years, in answer to the children's pleas to go somewhere or buy something, one of Boyd's oft-repeated answers was that they could do that someday "when his ship came in." No money for shoes to start school with? As soon as his ship came in, they'd be able to afford them. It's not hard to imagine the young family around the dinner table sharing dreams of what they would buy once their father's ship came in.
Imagine the children's surprise and excitement one day, when they spotted the largest ship they had ever seen on the river below their house. The date was June 30, 1952 and the ship, the steamboat Claire. A veteran of 34 years on the river, Claire made her retirement voyage that day from Portland to Champoeg, en route to the Veteran Steamboatmen's Association annual picnic. Her retirement marked the end of 101 years of steam boating on the upper Willamette River.
The children ran for their father, yelling "Daddy, our ship's come in, our ship's come in!" Surprise turned to shock and then sadness as the father gathered his little ones and explained what the saying really meant. All five children did a bit of growing up that day as childhood dreams were lost to the reality of a harsh world. And a family story was born. Carried down to this day and shared as a reminder of every parent's hope and dreams of a better life for their children.

The announcement that President Barack Obama would create a task force devoted to cracking down on financial fraud comes comes just three years after he announced a different fraud task force, leaving many in the enforcement community scratching their heads.
In his State of the Union address on Tuesday night Obama announced the formation of the financial crimes unit. This will be a "special unit of federal prosecutors and leading state attorneys general to expand our investigations into the abusive lending and packaging of risky mortgages that led to the housing crisis," he said. "This new unit will hold accountable those who broke the law, speed assistance to homeowners and help turn the page on an era of recklessness that hurt so many Americans."
The language was reminiscent of a speech Obama gave in November 2009 when he announced the creation of the Financial Fraud Enforcement Task Force, a sprawling investigative unit established to "hold accountable those who helped bring about the last financial crisis as well as those who would attempt to take advantage of the efforts at economic recovery."
With representatives from more than 20 federal agencies and 94 U.S. attorneys offices, that task force, created in 2009, has disappointed critics who argue that it has chosen to pursue relatively small fraudsters while leaving alone the major offenders, including the CEOs of banks that wrongfully foreclosed on struggling homeowners.
"Look at what happened with WorldCom ... Those guys were committing fraud at their own companies, and still they went to jail for what they did," said a prominent securities lawyer who wished to remain anonymous, referring to the fates of CEO Bernard Ebbers and other WorldCom executives. In comparison, "these financial shenanigans had an impact way beyond any one company, and these guys are still walking around free," said the lawyer. "There's just not been much effort to hold Wall Street or any of these other guys accountable."
So what will make this new investigative group any better?
One difference is that the new unit will pool state and federal resources to leverage impact, said an official with the Department of Justice. "Given that there are federal, state, civil and criminal components to these investigations, marshaling our efforts will be more effective."
Another key difference is the new unit's narrow focus, enabling the investigators to delve deeply into the issues instead of having to spread themselves across a variety of different types of fraud, said the DOJ official. Specifically, whereas the older task force is charged with investigating the financial fraud that led to the economic crisis in the broadest sense -- corporate fraud, insider trading, Ponzi schemes -- this working group is very narrowly targeted to fraud related to the origination and securitization of mortgage loans.
For some consumer advocates, the new unit sounds promising. "I think it is a good sign that the administration has made this commitment to pursuing origination fraud," said Diane Thompson, counsel for the National Consumer Law Center, one of the nation's premier consumer organizations. "There has been a dearth of accountability for the fraud that landed us in the global economic catastrophe we are living through."
Others remain less convinced. "I am agnostic about this," said Dean Baker, an economist and co-director of the Center for Economic and Policy Research.
Eric Schneiderman, the New York attorney general, is one of the new unit's five co-chairs. Schneiderman gained prominence last year with his resistance to the deal being negotiated between the Obama administration, the Department of Justice and the majority of the state attorneys general with five of the nation's largest banks after their being charged with falsifying mortgage documents and inappropriately denying loan modifications to needy homeowners, among other wrongdoings. Schneiderman has resisted participating in any deal that doesn't allow states to pursue their own cases against the mortgage companies. The new group is a subunit of the larger task force.
"I have respect for Schneiderman, but he is basically joining an existing task force on mortgage fraud that has done nothing for two years," Baker said. "Perhaps he will be able to turn things around, but if that was the intention it would seem to make more sense to simply let him set up his own task force."
Three of the new unit's co-chairs have also served on the Financial Fraud Enforcement Task Force, which raises concerns for David Dayen, a progressive blogger who's written extensively on the housing crisis.
"Three of the five co-chairs of this panel have a history of dragging their feet on enforcement against the banks in precisely the same areas that this panel will allegedly investigate," wrote Dayen in a post. Dayen is referring to Tony West, assistant attorney general for the civil division, Robert Khuzami, director of enforcement for the Securities and Exchange Commission, and Lanny Breuer, assistant attorney general for the criminal division. In addition to Schneiderman, the final co-chair is John Walsh, U.S. attorney general for the district of Colorado.

[Presented in reverse chronological order]
8:35PM OK, one more one last thing. McCain kinda sucks with or without a teleprompter. But Obama keeps fumbling the easy ones, where all he has to do is segue into his stump speech talking points. If that reminds you of his initial response to the Georgia invasion, it's for good reason. The man simply is not ready for the burden of this office. But I'm more than ready for another martini. So if you'll excuse me, I'll see you next week at the next debate. Cheers!
8:33PM One last thing. McCain is finishing with, "Obama still doesn't understand." It's true that McCain pulled a lot of punches. But he's won on points — and at the end, I think that was his strategy all along. Had he come on too strong, McCain would have left himself open to those charges of being imprudent. Tonight he was prudent, if sometimes overly so. Obama came across as an impudent naif — and that's not what Americans want, need, or can afford in times like these.
8:30PM OK, I'll give you a real close now. Obama strikes me as a modern Chamberlain, praising his (oh-so-transient) "peace with honor." McCain, however, comes across as "peace when we're done kicking you ass and not one moment sooner." And since this was ostensibly a foreign policy debate, I give the win to McCain. Oh, and one other thing — Obama is still talking as I write this. But he's spending his last answer angling for the European vote, which does nothing but reinforce my point.
8:27PM Now that it's almost over, may I at long last say … "oh, the humanity!"
8:25.5PM I mean, who would notice?
8:25PM "I've never said I object to nuclear waste." Then let's store it on Chicago's south side!
8:24PM Last question …
8:23PM Obama expected Russia to trade its "peacekeepers" in South Ossetia and Abkhazia with "international peacekeepers." And how did he propose to do that, even prior to the invasion? If you thought I was too harsh calling him a "naif" before, surely you agree with me now.
8:22PM This debate still has ten minutes or so to go. But it's not too soon to give you a wrap. McCain is no debater. He wouldn't last a second during Question Hour in the British Parliament. And yet Obama is coming off in third place in a two-man session.
8:19PM Quoting Obama, "Both sides ought to show restraint." Both sides including … GEORGIA! And again McCain draws a contrast between himself and Bush. And again Obama comes off as me-too at best, a naif at worst.
8:18PM Don't get me wrong — McCain is hardly my dream candidate. Unfortunately for me, and the nation, Cal Coolidge has been dead for quite some time now.
8:18PM Do I sound dismissive about the distinguished senator from Illinois? Oh, good!
8:17PM How do you see Russia? Obama: "uh … um … ah … we need to assess…" Maybe even a study group!
8:16PM On to Russia …
8:15PM "Aw, please," says McCain. It's about time somebody said that to this contorted naif.
8:15PM "Preconditions" = "Preparation," says Obama. To again put it in high school terms: Studying for your exams is the same as expecting your teacher to just give you an A.
8:14PM I don't know if McCain will win. I still doubt it, and sometimes I dread it. But if he doesn't do better with Jews than any Republican since… ever, then there's something wrong here.
8:13PM "I'm not going to set the White House visitor schedule before I'm elected." And Obama just got another welt across his behind.
8:12PM Every time Obama complains that the Bush strategy hasn't worked with Iran, he reinforces the point that his own plan is just more of the same, only granting Iran even more prestige. How stupid does he thing we are? How naive is he?
8:11PM Obama is man enough to admit that "it may not work" to have the Iranian president over at the White House. Back in high school, we used to say, "No sh*t, Sherlock?"
8:10PM "Let's talk about this," says Obama. Isn't that the goddamn problem, you inexperienced, officious little whelp?
8:09PM Pardon me as I wet myself while McCain spanks Obama over his promise to negotiate with Iran "without preconditions." It's like gay porn, only this stuff turns me on. (Sorry, Bruce!)
8:08PM "Tough, direct diplomacy against Iran!" I wave papers in your general direction, you Persian sons of hamsters!
8:08PM But yet we need "tougher sanctions."
8:07PM Obama just said sanctions haven't worked against Iran!
8:06PM Oh, and he slid it in under the wire, but every Jew watching just noted McCain say "never again." Obama should have followed suit, but so far hasn't.
8:05PM The best way to hurt Iran is to lower oil prices. McCain ought to be hammering that fact as part of his Drill Now, Drill Frickin' Everything mantra.
8:04PM In the comments, Dave writes, "'Paahkistaahn' might be closer to the correct pronunciation, but it comes across as effete. (Jenjiss kaahn?)"
8:03PM Lehrer says they're even on time. But that they've run out of five minute thingies. Give it to Lehrer for running an even debate, if nothing else.
8:02PM "You'd think Obama would have gone to Afghanistan." And then McCain further slammed Obama for hiding behind Senate rules (although I doubt many people caught that one).
8:01PM "No soldier ever dies in vain," says Obama. That's in direct contradiction to something he said during the primaries. Can someone look that up for me, please, while I drink? (I'm lazy, it's true.)
8:00PM Can I vote McCain for Best Old Uncle?
7:58PM Do a shot every time McCain says "I have a record." He doesn't *need* to say, "And my opponent doesn't."
7:58PM Now there's a bit of history I'd forgotten. McCain voted against his "dear friend" Reagan's deployment of Marines to Lebanon. Kind of squashes that whole "prudence" complaint.
7:57PM This is Obama's first really solid answer. So I can promise you it's the one all the news outlets (save *maybe* Fox) will be running tomorrow.
7:57PM Heh. Obama just slammed McCain about "prudence" after that "Bomb bomb bomb Iran" song. It's a fair cop.
7:56PM "Nobody talked about attacking Pakistan," says Obama. This must be Obama v2.0. Three-point-oh?
7:54PM "You don't say that out loud," says McCain, about Obama's promise to invade Pakistan. My exact words, from the first time Obama made his stupid, juvenile threat.
7:53PM You know, Obama is right — and has been right — about calling for more troops for Afghanistan. But now he's calling for more eradication of poppy seeds… and extending the Drug War to Afghanistan is the single biggest mistake Bush has made in that country.
7:52PM I just spent HOURS talking to Austin Bay about Afghanistan last weekend. And his assessment — wise when Obama was writing junior high school love poems — does not match up with that of the senator from Illinois.
7:50PM Obama has got to stop doing that half smile thing. I know, because I do it too. All the freaking time.
7:49PM Wasn't Obama promising to reduce our troops in Iraq "in 16 months" at least 12 months ago? Why won't the left call for his warmongering head?
7:48PM I live and breathe this stuff, even while drinking, but I can barely follow Obama's answers. McCain is hardly inspiring, but he at least seems to make sense.
7:47PM I haven't been paying attention to CNN's audience-o-meter. Can someone tell me how the candidates are doing? It's a gimmick, but I'm curious — and I have to LISTEN to these debates while I focus on typing on the screen.
7:46PM "Obama doesn't understand the difference between a tactic and a strategy."
7:46PM Ahhh.
7:44PM I'm going to miss some stuff now, while I go shake another martini. I trust you'll understand and forgive.
7:43PM McCain says the next President won't decide IF to go into Iraq, but HOW to exit and WHAT to leave behind. And it's there that Obama's judgement has been wrong for years.
7:42PM Obama has GOT to stop counting the costs of the Iraq War, at a time when Americans are feeling better about it. It's bad politics, bad strategy, and absolutely shitty leadership. If you'll pardon my English.
7:41PM Obama opposed Iraq. Who knew! But didn't he also oppose the surge that McCain endorsed before Bush and before the Pentagon? "Distraction… Afghanistan… blah blah blah."
7:41PM OK, quick question: Without peeking, repeat one thing Obama has said.
7:40PM If I'm not mistaken, there's been a foreign policy question, and an answer to match. "We are winning in Iraq… with honor," says McCain.
7:39PM "It is well known that I haven't been voted Miss Congeniality" in working with Bush. And then McCain outlined lots of places where he has parted ways with Bush… while sneaking in an endorsement for Palin. Nicely turned, McCain. More of this, please.
7:38PM "I just have to make this point, Jim." Obama his hitting McCain hard for voting for "most" of Bush's budgets.
7:36PM "Spending 300 billion dollars on tax cuts." That right there explains why I haven't voted for a Democrat for President since 1992, and would rather not until they beat that sentiment out of themselves. Preferably using ball-peen hammers.
7:35PM I understood that there would be a foreign policy debate. And that there would be no math.
7:34PM McCain just put Obama on defense again on energy. "You can't get there from here." I'm starting to wonder if the old guy has been laying low this whole time.
7:33PM McCain would freeze spending on everything but defense and such. Obama says, "yes, but…" Which has been his entire performance so far tonight. That's playing defense. That's playing to lose.
7:32PM Obama's liberalism is just "opposition to Bush's failed policies."
7:31PM Obama says some things "will have to be delayed." Lehrer says "What?" Obama answers with stuff he doesn't want to delay, and stuff he doesn't want to cut, and taxes he wants to raise. And college tuition! Somebody's got to pay off his wife's loans.
7:30PM If this were Oxford, it would start like this: "Resolved: That we would like to hold all of the primaries over again."
7:29PM "It's hard to reach across the aisle from that far to the left." "I oppose ethanol subsidies." I know McCain wasn't planning to take Iowa, but I wonder if he just kissed off Indiana and Ohio, too.
7:28PM Joe Biden has possessed the body of Barack Obama. He just. won't. stop.
7:28PM Affordable college? Infrastructure? What was the question again, Barack?
7:27PM Obama: "I don't have a plan." OK, he didn't quite say that, but he does say we need "energy independence." And then he gave a nice little reach around to Detroit automakers. Hello, Michigan's 17 electoral college votes!
7:26PM Lehrer has done OK, I suppose, but this ought to be his last major debate.
7:25PM What a wasted chance. McCain is stumbling now. But Obama says, "It's just not true, it's just not true." But he never says how it isn't true.
7:25PM McCain just took one of those uppercuts. It's not connecting, quite, but at least he finally tried one.
7:24PM But I'll give Obama this much credit: "Loopholes" is usually a Republican complaint. He's taken that one away. But now he's talking health care and against free markets and this is a foreign policy debate?
7:24PM Is Obama really claiming that American businesses don't actually pay enough taxes?
7:23PM 95% of you will get a tax cut! I'm giving you money! Vote for me!
7:22PM 15 minutes in, it's clear that McCain is missing chances to throw uppercuts. But he's ahead on jabs.
7:21PM Obama is begging off on the numbers, and claiming he'll go "line by line" through the budget. Well, fine. But instead of arguing "change," Obama is arguing about earmarks. McCain has forced him off that hill called Hope and Change — and that's an operational, maybe strategic, little win on his part.
7:19PM McCain just accused Obama of being a johnny-come-lately on earmarks, and that "maybe that kind of money" isn't serious to Obama. Right now I'm liking this fight.
7:18PM Has anyone factchecked Obama's claim that he can cut taxes for 95% of families when one third of taxpayers pay no income tax at all?
7:17PM Ah. Under McCain, 300 billion in tax cuts to the "rich," says Obama. It's starting to get nasty. Which means it's almost time for a second martini.
7:16PM Wow. McCain just claimed that Obama has earmarked almost a million dollars a day as a senator. Can someone look that up, see if it's right? Obama just took one on the chin, then weakly claimed that NOW he's refusing earmarks.
7:15PM "What would you do to lead the country out of the financial crisis?" McCain: Control spending. And then on to earmarks. Yes, McCain has had two unforced errors, but he's also pretty adept at turning questions to his strengths.
7:14PM I'm glad to see McCain placed equal blame on Washington for once, and not just on Wall Street. But it took him a week to get there?
7:13PM Speaking of unforced errors, Obama just mentioned "failed energy policies." Like the Democratic ban on oil drilling that Democrats just allowed to expire because they weren't brave enough to actually go and change them?
7:12PM "People will be held accountable in my administration." Nice contrast with Bush, who would fire someone for peeing in his hat.
7:11PM McCain is telling a great story about Eisenhower. Telling it so well you might believe McCain was there with him. You might even think he was there. First health, now age. That's a couple unforced errors already.
7:10PM Obama is leaving himself wide open for McCain to bring up all the Freddie & Fannie money Obama has taken in four short years — but will he?
7:09PM "I am optimistic," says Obama. Wouldn't have guessed that from his first answer.
7:08PM BAM! Didn't take long for McCain to bring up our "dependence on foreign oil."
7:08PM McCain seems solid, and he's playing up the bipartisan angle. Obama would be smart to follow suit. He'd have been smarter to have started off that way three minutes ago.
7:07PM McCain "isn't feeling well" about the economic situation. Smart to bring up the health issue, even tangentially?
7:07PM Nice note from McCain about Ted Kennedy, who was rushed to a hospital earlier tonight after a "mild seizure."
7:06PM Fumbled the "trickle down" line.
7:06PM But he's got on a tie pin. (I don't wear one.)
7:06PM Obama's first answer is very well rehearsed, but maybe obviously so. And his tie seems a little… nightclubbish.
7:05PM "We are at a defining moment in our history…" And I think maybe I fell asleep already.
7:05PM "We must achieve security and solvency." A quote from Eisenhower to lighten the mood. The question goes to Obama.
7:04PM Both candidates look good. Cordial. Maybe even warm. Wish I could say the latter about Lehrer.
7:03PM Part of the fate of the free world depends on a coin toss. Don't think about that.
7:03PM I'm sure I've used this joke before, but Jim Lehrer looks amazingly lifelike.
7:01PM OK, here we go. I've just taken a rather large dose of cocktail to fortify myself for the impending disaster. Or brilliant performance. Or whatever.
7:00PM Somebody just accused Christiane Amanpour <sp?> of being pretty much unAmerican. Good thing it was from a fellow unAmerican journalist, otherwise there'd be hell to pay.
6:57PM Here's a better link to Bruce's Vicodinblog.
6:55PM My sources inform me that Tony Blair is actually a cat person. Pajamas Media regrets the error.
6:54PM The Obama guys are cracking me up, claiming McCain is a "peerless" debater. I mean, Tony Blair's dog is probably better at this stuff.
6:50PM Can Obama pull off the commander-in-chief role? Will anyone care three weeks from now? McCain has run a (mostly) smart campaign. How'd he get snookered into holding the foreign affairs debate first?
6:47PM The talking heads agree: Both of these guys pretty much suck at debates, but give McCain the edge. It's a heavily handicapped race — or maybe a race between the handicapped.
6:44PM In a global first, Bruce Carroll is Vicodinblogging tonight's debate. I've got ten bucks says he passes out before it's over.
6:42PM I'll admit though that I'd give up booze for a month if I could play with CNN's map software and giant touch screen.
6:40PM (All times Mountain, or else I'll have to do math.) After splitting a bottle of cheap champagne with my bride, I've poured myself a hefty Ketel One Citroen martini. And if Wolf Blitzer keeps going on about how people can turn the little dials for stuff they like, I'm going to need my second Ketel One Citroen martini in record time.

It's our second holiday in Switzerland. We last came here 10 years ago, in 2013, when Zoe was 8 and Irene just 4.
It's amazing coming back to our favourite places like the Lauterbrunnen Valley and the Trummelbach Falls ten years later, doing some of the same things, and reflecting on how much has changed.
We had rented a campervan that time. Now we've driven in our own campervan (RV). We left our dog in a kennel that time; now we've brought our dog, lovely Jake instead of lovely Trooper, whom we gave away when we left the US.
I was not a blogger then, and did not own a business. It was pre-Facebook and pre-Twitter, and we did not miss being disconnected from the world. I had a few essays out, and an (abortive) book proposal and checked on them at internet cafes, and emailed a few friends.
Now, I have a WiFi hotspot which works anywhere in the world, pretty much, so am as connected as at home–and like it that way, though obviously, I am not spending much time reading blogs, FB statuses, or tweets.
We've brought technology with us, laptops, iPads, iPhones, iPods, each to his or her own, because the internet, the world wide flow of knowledge is an extension of ourselves, has become part of the way we think (continually researching areas of curiosity) and the way we do life. We are unapologetic about it!!
We've changed; the world has changed; human consciousness has changed. Facebook, Twitter, blogs—all these barely existed ten years ago. They are now part of how I do life. Just like recording in a journal gets one to slow down, and take it all in, sharing your life in a blog or Facebook enforces a beneficial slowing down, paying attention, and reaching out and connecting which is a universal human impulse. Knowing I am going to write about it, photographing things as I go, enforces a heightened attention and I think that is a good thing.
Ten years ago, we lived in America and were American citizens. Now we live in England, and are British citizens too. Ten years, ago, we blinked at the stressfully high Swiss prices. Now, having living in England for 9 years, we've become inured to high prices.
Ten years, ago we had wild lively children, heard long before they were seen. Now we have savvy teenagers. Ten years ago, they would volunteer to cook us a meal at the campground kitchen and it was an grand adventure. Now, they'd rather read.
Ten years ago, we were intimidated by Swiss glares when the children were heard as well as seen, and by general Swiss dourness. Now, bah, the Swiss are just people, and if they frown and glare, I shrug! (Besides, they definitely seem to have grown nicer, or perhaps I have!)
Internally, I am happier, deeper, more content, more rooted in God. I have learned the secret of the bluebird of happiness. She lives within, that wild thing, and one must burrow within to find her.
A few then-and-now photos:
- Jake the Collie, with one eye blue and one brown, has been a photographed by many tourists to Switzerland!
Some photos of the fortified hilltop village Gruyères (from where Gruyère cheese comes from). The symbol of Gruyères is the stork (gru, in French).
Switzerland has gorgeous scenery. All but one of these are from the Lauterbrunnen vallley.

US giant General Atomics scouting for Indian partners to make next-gen weapons - Financial Express
Huma Siddiqui | New Delhi | Updated: Oct 25 2014, 14:05 IST
Huma Siddiqui | New Delhi | Updated: Oct 25 2014, 14:05 IST
In a bid to exploit the 'Make in India' policy initiated by the Narendra Modi government, US-based global defence and
nuclear giant General Atomics is looking for local partners to build next-generation weapons and support systems based on advanced electromagnetic technologies in the country. The company has already established base in India and has appointed Vivek Lall, who has worked for Boeing, Raytheon and NASA and has been globally recognized as an aerospace leader, as CEO for US and international commercial strategic development for General Atomics Electromagnetic Systems (EMS).
According to sources, PM Narendra Modi met select business leaders in Washington during his recent visit, including Lall, which could result in win-win business opportunities for both countries in support of Modi's 'Make in India' campaign.
Several Indian companies, including L&T and Pipavav, have apparently shown interest in co-production of such a high technology system. Electromagnetic Systems is developing and building state-of-the-art linear induction motors and control systems to launch aircraft from carriers, replacing steam-driven catapults, and is incorporating advanced rotating motors into new arresting gear systems for recovery of aircraft. This is precisely targeted for the US navy and is being showcased as next generation modernisation.
Sources in the ministry of defence (MoD) have indicated the Indian Navy is keen on this system as it looks at future aircraft carrier needs.
General Atomics/EMS is developing next-generation weapons and support systems based on advanced electromagnetic technologies that can improve operational effectiveness and efficiency. EMS is leading the development of pulsed power systems for rail guns, which can launch projectiles without propellants or explosives.
The company is also a world-class developer, designer, and manufacturer of high voltage capacitors for DC, pulse, high frequency AC, and specialised applications. This could have significant applications in India's stated renewable and solar energy aspirations.
The Gulftronic Electrostatic Separator removes catalyst particles (fines) from FCC/RFCC slurry oil. The Gulftronic Electrostatic Separator is a continuous operation, electrostatic, on-stream separation system currently in use by most major oil companies.
So far, more than 50 systems have been installed at petroleum refineries worldwide, including Reliance Industries in India. GA's TRIGA reactor is the most widely used non-power nuclear reactor in the world. With India's nuclear liability laws under debate, this could be another area the company could partner with the Indian government. Since the beginning of nuclear power, GA has provided custom designed, environmentally- and seismically-qualified radiation monitoring equipment to the nuclear power industry.

|Official internet-portal of St. Petersburg, cultural capital of Russia
|Petersburg CITY / Guide to St. Petersburg, Russia
Printed from: http://petersburgcity.com/news/city/2010/04/05/plushenko/
City news, 05.04.2010 19:05
Russian Plushenko's fans to console him with 'people's' gold medalFans of Russian skater Evgeni Plushenko, who hoped to become the first repeat men's Olympic gold medalist since 1952, but won silver in the free skate at the Vancouver Games, will award the skater and his coach "people's" gold medals, the initiator of the award has said.
Plushenko's coach, Alexei Mishin, will be awarded an alternative medal during a ceremony in Saint Petersburg on Sunday, Dmitry Ilkovsky said. The 27-year-old skater, who was reported unable to attend the ceremony, will receive his award later, he said.
The medals, intended to console the skater and his coach, are made of gold contributed by Plushenko's fans.
Mishin's medal made of 14k gold weights 0.5 kilograms (1.1 pounds) and is decorated with six diamonds.
Earlier, Ilkovsky said a medal to be awarded to Plushenko weighted 0.516 kilograms (1.137 pounds), the exact weight of an Olympic gold. However, there is only 0.006 kilograms (0.013 pounds) of gold in an Olympic gold medal, with the rest being siver. Plushenko's medal was expected to comprise more gold or even fully consist of these metal.
Plushenko, who led Evan Lysacek of the United States by half a point after the short figure skating program in Vancouver, was beaten out by the American in the final free skate despite performing a more difficult routine. He disagreed with the result, saying he should have been given the gold as his performance was obviously better. He did not want to take part in the traditional victory lap and hurried to remove the silver medal from his neck.
The president of the International Olympic Committee criticized Plushenko, who had suggested Russian sports officials should challenge the result, for his behavior after the competition.
Experts say Plushenko received silver because a new system of judgment is in effect in figure skating, and that it fails to properly take into account complicated elements performed by skaters.
In mid-March, Russian President Dmitry Medvedev awarded Plushenko the Order of Merit for the Motherland.
The former Olympic and three-time world champion returned to the ice late last year after a self-imposed retirement from competitive skating following his stunning performance in Turin in 2006.
He easily won an international Moscow cup in October and the Russian national championship in December. He also triumphed at last month's European Championships.

Cessna Citation across bluQube Scoring Gate
At around 04:30 GMT on Friday, Conrad Colman and Adrian Kuttel were the first Global Ocean Race Class40 to cross the extended Leg 3 bluQube Scoring Gate, grabbing the maximum six points with Cessna Citation and immediately dropping deeper into the Pacific with 2,000 miles in the Furious Fifties ahead of the Kiwi-South African team until they reach the Felipe Cubillos Cape Horn Gate and exit the Southern Ocean.
In second place on Financial Crisis, the good news that Marco Nannini had been made Italian Sailor of The Year was balanced by the destruction of the Class40's masthead spinnaker – a costly loss for Nannini and his Spanish co-skipper, Hugo Ramon. While the two southern boats are racing off the wind with southwesterly breeze from a low pressure system rolling east through the Southern Ocean below the Class40s, furthest north in third place, Nick Leggatt and Phillippa Hutton-Squire on the GOR's South African entry Phesheya-Racing are enduring variable headwinds and rough seas as they wait for the tail winds to arrive.
As Colman and Kuttel shot across the bluQube Scoring Gate averaging 13 knots on Cessna Citation, Marco Nannini and Hugo Ramon were 170 miles to the west making ten knots: "The last 48 hours have finally given us some following winds and faster sailing conditions," confirmed a very relieved Marco Nannini. "This came as a huge relief, although sailing downwind at high speeds presents its own challenges too."
In the 15:00 GMT position poll on Friday, Cessna Citation held a lead of 179 miles over Financial Crisis as Conrad Colman and Adrian Kuttel drop below 50°S, deeper into the Southern Ocean on starboard reach averaging just under 12 knots. Around 200 miles northeast of Cessna Citation lies Point Nemo, the Oceanic Pole of Inaccessibility or, in plain English, the most geographically remote piece of water on the planet furthest from any land. Point Nemo's nearest land is Ducie Island, an uninhabited atoll in the Pitcairn Islands 1,700 miles due north.
While Colman and Kuttel head into the Furious Fifties, Nannini and Ramon are 70 miles from crossing the bluQube Scoring Gate which was extended south by 180 miles early GMT on Thursday. "The GOR Race Committee has decided to extend the southern limit of the scoring gate from 47°S to 50°S in light of the upwind conditions that we would be likely to encounter and the fact that every boat is now out of a main area of known ice," explains Nannini. "A pragmatic approach that puts our safety first," he adds.
On Phesheya-Racing, 920 miles northwest of Financial Crisis, it's upwind-business-as-usual for Nick Leggatt and Phillippa Hutton-Squire. "Over the last day or so we have been tacking and stacking," reported Hutton-Squire on Friday morning. "The wind has been very variable as we sail around the edge of the trough and north of the trough there's a little low pressure system forming." The system quickly grew with winds of around 30 knots spinning clockwise around its centre. "We have to be careful not to get too far east as we will get strong headwinds," she predicts. "So we have been playing the shifts by tacking to stay north."
Reporting thick mist completely obscuring the full moon, Leggatt and Hutton-Squire are once again in the horrific conditions that have stalked Phesheya-Racing for well over one week. "Now we're sailing straight into the waves and slamming, bouncing, bashing and being thrown around like a rag doll," says Hutton-Squire. "It's very uncomfortable and sleeping tonight is going to be the biggest challenge," she adds. "The wind is forecast to be very light, but we have been having anything from ten – 20 knots in a matter of minutes." On Friday afternoon GMT, in a brief email to the GOR Race Organisation, Leggatt and Hutton-Squire advised that they were hove-to with Phesheya-Racing becoming frequently airborne. "The positive side is that soon we hope to be sailing down wind," says Hutton-Squire. "We keep telling ourselves that, but hopefully next time we're in contact we'll have the wind from behind or aft of the beam."
In the 15:00 GMT position poll on Friday, Leggatt and Hutton-Squire were near the centre of the low pressure system with weather files predicting following, southwesterly or westerly breeze for Phesheya-Racing within six hours as the system slips south.
GOR leaderboard 15:00 GMT 10/2/12:
1. Cessna Citation DTF 3391 11.9kts
2. Financial Crisis DTL 179 9.2kts
3. Phesheya-Racing DTL 1107 4.1kts

What if I want to cancel my Sapling Plan?
If you change your mind within 28 days of your application being accepted, you can return your documents for a full refund – with no questions asked. If you cancel your plan mid-term, the company reserves the right to retain £500 of the burial plot price and £250 of the ash interment plot price to cover administration costs.
How do we actually arrange a funeral at GreenAcres Epping Forest?
We always work very closely with your chosen Funeral Director. In many instances we will show the family around the park and our buildings. During that initial visit we will let the family know what to expect on the day and if they do decide to select a plot at the park we will confirm these details, along with a confirmed time and date, with their Funeral Director. We will ensure that every detail of the funeral is double checked. If we notice during the arrangement period that a tiny detail has been overlooked, we will draw it to the attention of your Funeral Director immediately.
Can we choose the exact place for the burial?
Throughout the park we have special dedicated Burial Trees and burial areas; along with one of our team you can choose the place that suits you best.
How do we find you ?
GreenAcres Epping Forest is easily accessible; the park is located just outside North Weald Bassett, close to the M11.
Approaching the park from the M11: exit at Junction 7 and take the A414 (Canes Lane), following the signs to North Weald Bassett. At the junction with the B181 (High Road) turn right and continue to North Weald Bassett where you will find Kiln Road second on your left after the Kings Head public house. The entrance to the Park is past the railway bridge on the right-hand side of the road.
Approaching the park from the Chelmsford area: take the A414 signposted to Harlow. Continue on through Ongar until you reach the Talbot roundabout, with the B181 signposted to North Weald. Turn left onto the B181 and continue through the village. After passing the Kings Head public house on your left, cross the mini roundabout and Kiln Road is the next turning on the left. The entrance to the Park is past the railway bridge on the right-hand side of the road.
Approaching the park from Epping: at the north end of the town, turn right at St. Margaret's traffic lights onto the B181 (signposted to North Weald). Continue to North Weald, passing the golf course on your right. As you approach the mini roundabout, take the right hand turn just beforehand into Kiln Road. The entrance to the Park is past the railway bridge on the right-hand side of the road.
What payment options do I have?
Payment is required before the service or interment takes place. You can pay via credit or debit card, cheque or by a bank transfer. For those who wish to secure a place with us in the future you can pay in advance over 12 months using our interest-free instalment plan. Our Sapling Plan cover the cost of the plot price only. The services of a Funeral Director and the use of the Woodland Hall for a service are not included in the plan. If you wish to include these services, please contact your local park for further information.
Do we need an appointment to visit the park?
It is advisable to make an appointment to visit the park. Many of our visitors come because they enjoy the beauty of woodland and we actively encourage the parks to be used by all. However, sometimes it's worth a quick phone call to the team to check the park has not been closed for a few hours. We sometimes need to do this, perhaps owing to some woodland management programmes that need to be completed, adverse weather conditions or a funeral taking place is that of a public figure and the family have asked for complete privacy.
Can flowers be left on a grave?
Yes of course. Cut flowers may be laid on the grave but in keeping with the woodland environment cellophane and ribbons need to be removed. When flowers start to deteriorate, one of our woodland team will remove them to keep the grave looking well cared for. If you think you might want to present flowers in a more traditional way in a vase, we can provide wooden vases made with dowels in the bottom so they can be inserted into the earth and remain upright.
What if I don't want to mark the grave?
Some people choose not to mark a grave with a wooden memorial which is very much a personal choice. However, whenever we bury anyone at our parks we record the graves very carefully and use both traditional mapping and GPS technology to ensure that there is a permanent record of each person who is buried with us and their location.
Do you say what kind of coffin is allowed?
The choice of coffin is a very personal one. Perhaps you would prefer not to have a coffin and would rather a shroud or other natural fabric-covering that will not harm the environment. Other eco coffins include cardboard, willow, banana leaf and bamboo which, along with traditional wooden coffins, are acceptable at all of our parks.We are committed to complying with our eco and conservation policies. With this in mind we do not allow metal caskets or zinc-lined coffins to be interred.
Can people be buried together?
All of our Full Burial and Ash Interment plots are double depth, with the exception of some areas in the meadow. This allows for the plot to be used by a second person, perhaps a close family member or loved one, when their need arises. Should you choose not to share a final resting place then there is no obligation to use the second interment space.
Is the ground in your burial park consecrated?
No, but individual graves can be blessed.
Must there be a religious service?
We pride ourselves on our relationships with both the local clergy and the local independent celebrant team, ensuring the requirements of both the religious and secular community are met.
How do I know that you will take care of the cemeteries and ceremonial parks?
Unlike some other burial sites or cemeteries, we take the long-term care of the place where your loved one is buried very seriously. A trust is in place to maintain our cemeteries and ceremonial parks.
Can we bury ashes as well as a full burial?
Yes you can. Our burial trees are chosen to offer the widest choice and ashes can be buried close to the foot of the chosen tree. You can also scatter ashes at our dedicated ash scattering area and we also offer the option of a burial either full burial or ashes where no memorial posts are included. For many the park itself becomes the place of remembrance.
