Inspired by my fellow music educator and blogger, Jersey Jazzman, and to offer a break from my typical posts about the horrors of education reform, here's a playlist of some of my favorite seasonal tunes. And because the holidays are about indulging–in great music and great food!–each selection is accompanied by one of my favorite recipes. So snuggle up around the fireplace and pour a drink…or 6…
Let's start with an oldie-but-goodie from my favorite crooner, Frank Sinatra: Mistletoe & Holly. There's just something so nostalgic and comforting about this tune. For me, it brings back memories of my childhood when we listened to Christmas albums collected from the local gas station that were given out when you filled up your tank…and to accompany this tasty, jazzy appetizer, a 1960s-era throwback–shrimp cocktail, with a chipotle-infused cocktail sauce to bring it into the 21st Century.
Next up is a beautiful cover from Wayne Bergeron of O Holy Night–and what a great arrangement! This live performance is really impressive, and features Wayne on both flugel and trumpet. Who does that, and sounds that good on both horns? Wow…now, what to pair with this? The only thing that can stand up to this kind of sonic power is a perfect beef tenderloin…with horseradish creme…
and the ideal, fool-proof way to make sure this amazing beast turns out perfectly cooked is to use the "reverse sear" method, explained in painstaking detail here…
The next entry on the list is this swinging arrangement of Sleigh Ride by Ella Fitzgerald, which is featured in our favorite holiday movie, Elf. The trombones in the opening bars of this arrangement set the tone for this bluesy take on the holiday standard.
And to go with this tune, my favorite holiday side dish…a chipotle sweet potato dish from chef Bobby Flay…every time I've made this dish it gets rave reviews, so hurry up and get this on your table, too!
A bonus addition to the list is my new favorite Christmas tune from my friend and colleague at Michigan State University, Etienne Charles. His new album, Creole Christmas, is on heavy rotation whenever I'm in the car or out for a run, and my favorite cut from the album is This Christmas (featuring Mykal Kilgore on vocals). Etienne's arrangement is just superb on this tune, with such a laid-back, cool feel and great horn lines.
Here's a link to the Amazon.com web page that contains a sample cut of the tune, and please head over to Etienne's website to pick up your own copy of this great album–and the rest of Etienne's CDs; all of them are fantastic!
For after dinner, there's only one choice–the urtext version of The Christmas Song (Chestnuts Roasting on an Open Fire) by Mel Torme. This is the one song to listen to at the end of the night, by the fire with your favorite person.
To accompany this classic, we have a lovely glass of port, with some stilton, fruit, and perhaps a drizzle of honey…no recipe needed.
And that's the great thing about holiday music…each one of us could come up with another set of tunes that are just as wonderful, and hold special memories of our families and loved ones.
Keep these tunes handy the next time life deals you a bad hand, and best wishes for the most wonderful of years!

The main purpose of this type of detox is to make the body's pH more Alkaline, but what exactly is the importance of being Alkaline?
Research reports show that 85% of all illnesses are caused by toxins and pollutants in our bodies, further concluding that diseases thrive in an Acidic environment. Therefore, maintaining a more Alkaline environment in the body is critical to one's health. In short, the less Acidic your body is and the more Alkaline, the less prone you are to contracting diseases.
An Ionic Foot Detox helps to facilitate the Alkalization process through the process of ionization, by using water charged with positive and negative ions (electrolytes) which draw toxins in your body out through your feet through a process of exchange between the positive and negative ions in your body, and their opposite numbers in the water; essentially removing free-radicals from the body. It is this exchange of ions that causes the water in the ionic foot bath to change color.
Health benefits of a Detox Foot Bath include:
- Improves the body's lymph circulation, similar to a Swedish massage
- Helps reduce and relieve migraines and headaches
- Can help improve and clear up skin conditions
- Increases natural energy levels
- Helps improve quality of sleep and relaxation
- Boost immune function and fights off viruses
- Relieves muscle and joint pain and swelling
- Can assist weight loss
The process of an Ionic Foot Detox is simple and painless and lasts approximately 30 minutes.
The different colors of the water are said to reflect the areas of the body affected.

Tools and consumables
Gear Puller
To adjust or take off wheels, gears and worms. Comes in box with 5 different pins. A train modeller really can't do without this.
Included pins for axles with diameters of 1mm, 1.5mm, 1.75mm, 2 mm and 3mm.
Oil in precision applicator
Precision oil for use on model trains. Use for brass or other metal gearing or to lube the axles. Do not use for plastic gears, for that you need grease. Very easy to apply only one drop.
Tube cutter
This tube cutter is something you can't be without as a model builder. It is not to cut tubes for plumbing, but for more delicate, brass tubes up to 8 mm. You can now easily cut a straight piece of a 0.5 mm brass rod or tube of only 1 mm short. The small ruler indicating millimeters makes it easy to measure the desired length of the tube/rod. With a thin or flat saw with fine teeth it is simple to cut multiple exact pieces.
The handle on the tube cutter can be removed, so it can be stuck on a vice. Open de handle on the top to put a tube in the V shaped grove. When you've set the correct length, push the handle lightly down to hold the tube in place, then saw through the tube.
The result is always a success. You might need to use some sand paper to clean the cut up.
Watch the video below to see how it works. It's in Dutch, but it will be obvious how it works.
To measure very accurately the thickness of a sheet of plastic, a strip of brass or a rod, the Micrometer will give you more accuracy than a caliper. That's why this is my tool of choice when I need 100% certainty about the thickness of the material.
This is how it works:
The spindle is a very accurately machined screw and the object to be measured is placed between the spindle and the anvil. The spindle is moved by turning the ratchet knob or thimble until the object to be measured is lightly touched by both the spindle and the anvil.

According to a decision of a Massachusetts Superior Court, one day after beginning work in 2010 as a hair stylist for Invidia, LLC, a Sudbury, Massachusetts hair salon, Maren DiFonzo signed an agreement containing non-competition, non-solicitation and confidentiality provisions in favor of Invidia. The agreement provided that she would be restricted, after her departure from Invidia, from offering such services for a period of two years within a ten mile radius of Invidia.
After about 28 months at Invidia, Ms. DiFonzo informed her employer that she was leaving to work for another salon which was only 1.6 miles away. Four days after DiFonzo resigned from Invidia, David Paul Salons, her new employer, posted a "public announcement" on DiFonzo's Facebook page, noting DiFonzo's new affiliation with David Paul. One Ms. Kaiser posted a comment which said, "See you tomorrow Maren [DiFonzo]!" Ms. Kaiser then canceled her appointment at Invidia for the next day.
DiFonzo was thereafter sued by Invidia for breaching the agreement and Invidia sought a preliminary injunction to require DiFonzo to observe the provisions of the agreement until trial on the merits. To obtain such an order by the court, Invidia was required to prove that it would likely prevail at trial and that damages would be inadequate to remedy the breach.
When Invidia learned, almost immediately, that DiFonzo was going to work at David Paul Salons, it had its attorney send letters to both DiFonzo and David Paul Salons, expressing its intention to enforce the Agreement. DiFonzo's employment at David Paul Salons lasted from August 20, 2012 to September 1, 2012. DiFonzo believed that David Paul Salons "fired" her on September 1, although Mr. Pompey, the owner of David Paul Salons, said that he told Ms. DiFonzo "to take time off from David Paul and return if she could get things straightened out with Mr. Patzleiner" of Invidia." Mr. Pompey said that he took this action "solely [because of] the threats I received from Mr. Patzleiner" of Invidia, after a discussion with Mr. Patzleiner in which Mr. Patzleiner said that "he did not care" whether DiFonzo would solicit Invidia's customers, but rather "he 'needed to send a message' to his other employees."
In its supporting papers, Invidia pointed out that DiFonzo had become Facebook "friends" with at least eight of Invidia's clients. Invidia also prepared a report indicating that 90 Invidia clients, formerly served by DiFonzo, "either did not keep his or her scheduled appointment, canceled, or failed to schedule a future appointment" since August 18,2012, the day of DiFonzo's resignation.
Invidia's owner stated that Facebook "is a significant channel of communication between Invidia and its clients." Invidia argued that if these 90 clients are accustomed to communicating with Invidia through Facebook, they are probably Facebook-savvy enough to locate Ms. DiFonzo's Facebook page after she left Invidia.
According to the court, however, Invidia failed to prove that damages were inadequate and failed to prove that it would likely prevail on the merits. Invidia did not show to the court's satisfaction that DiFonzo solicited any of the purported clients via Facebook or otherwise. The court held that: "So long as they reached out to Ms. DiFonzo and not vice versa, there is no violation of the non-solicitation provision of the Agreement." Invidia's request for the preliminary injunction was denied. [Court opinion.]
The court also noted: "The nature of a hair stylist's relationships with her customers is such that it can be difficult to determine whose goodwill is being created as she pleases those customers enough to convince them to return to the salon for future visits. Given the nature of this industry, the question of whether this particular non-competition provision protects the employer's goodwill is a difficult one, as to which Invidia's theory may or may not ultimately carry the day."
NOTE: Many states allow such agreements restricting future employment that are "reasonable" as to geography and time period. With only certain narrow exceptions, such agreements in California would be void as a matter of law. See Cal. Bus. & Prof. Code § 16600 et. seq.

Fall of the U.S.A.
At some point in our recent talk of books and the literary canon, commenter Sanjay mentioned in passing the epic U.S.A. Trilogy of John Dos Passos. It reminded me that back when I was a teenager burning through the interwar classics, I kept running across references to Dos Passos as a sort of invisible patron to writers like Hemingway or Fitzgerald. "I'll read that eventually," I thought. Sanjay's comment brought those old intentions to mind, and it seems that I'm not alone.
What We're Doing
This fall, we will use The American Scene as a platform for the collective reading and discussion of U.S.A. Labor Day seems a politically and seasonally appropriate time to begin what we're calling, in a tip of the hat to the Infinite Summer Project, the Fall of the U.S.A. There will be no explicit deadlines, but we will also brook no acrimony over "spoilers." Comment as you progress through the books, and follow along at your own risk. You will see some contributions from friends of the Scene, some of whom you might already know from elsewhere.
This being The American Scene, we encourage a generous hermeneutic toward the books. They are obviously ambitious, and might fall short on certain counts. Let's think first about what works, and then consider whatever flaws afflict them.
We live in the era of survival analysis, so we welcome any readers who want to participate without committing to the whole trilogy. Reality intrudes sometimes. Even if you might not make it the whole way, give it a try.
I hope to collect reference materials online somewhere (the Sanborn fire insurance maps, for instance, would be a great resource). Any readers who'd like to help are encouraged to do so once we decide on a framework. Maybe we'll serve as a slow-burning flashmob on the wikipedia entry.
Themes for Consideration
I've only started the first book, so I'd make a lousy guide, but already a few themes are apparent. Here are some ideas to keep in mind as you read, and I'd love to see some other ideas in the comments thread (again, we might decide on a new technical approach to this in time).
The Law
When and where does the force of law manifest in the action of the novels and in the lives of the characters?
Media and the Information Economy
Reading this in hindsight, where, if anywhere, do we see hints of the emerging "knowledge economy?"
We hear about it a lot today, mostly in embarrassingly glib terms. Muslim kids go into one end of a madrassa, and radicals pour out the other end. But what actually happens to make some people and not others receptive to radical solutions and life missions? I've always thought that notions of manhood had a lot to do with it, and Dos Passos appears to agree.
What's the Matter with Kansas?
To what extent do direct economic interests shape political orientation? Should they? The book presents solidarity as something ephemeral that takes constant energy input to avoid dissipation.
As we are discovering in the era of "food miles" and "too big to fail," scale is an under-theorized element of political economy that carries a lot of intuitive weight. To what extent does Dos Passos present scale as a normative dimension?
I hope this proves worthwhile, and that everybody gets something out of the books, if not the discussion. Good luck and Godspeed.

Okay, again we are in the month : December.
Time for all the New Year resolutions to be revisited to see how many points decided by us is actually done by us. Some guys will have all the points taken care by them, some will have partial and then some who hadn't done anything. Those people are my people and we all comprises the group Procrastinators. We are sometimes ran over by the world and sometimes we run over the world. Okay, enough of this shit chat.
I don't know about your 2016 but I hope it was equally exciting like my 2016. On the hindsight, it was ying-yang year for me. Lots of good things happened , but I have seen the worst of things too.
Year started on a good note, will end on a good note most probably but in the middle it was a bumpy ride. If you are a regular here, you would know if you don't, then let me ask you What the fuck are you doing here? Never mind, you and me, we both are incorrigible. Animal instincts, may be.
So now let's count good things:
Star Wars Rogue One.
Batman v superman ultimate edition.
Suicide Squad.
- Dear Zindagi.
The bad things :
Batman v superman theatrical cut
Leg fracture
Those are the main things, important things which are accounted. There are definitely lots of things which aren't accounted but exists.
Let's try to remember them chronologically.
- Got chance to work with 2 brilliant clients. Met some interesting people there. Some were terrifically brilliant and some, terribly stupid. But it was an experience working with them.
- Saw some brilliant Series this year. Billions. House MD. Incorporated (ongoing). Bulls (ongoing).
- Met some wonderful peoples. Made some friends. Made some enemies. This year, new enemies outnumbered new friends. Woah!, this is a bad thing. Hoping that 2017 will bring a different situation.
- Rekindled some old friendships. Hero and Gillu shifted to Bangalore. Scientist shifted to Hyderabad but is coming back in January '17. Selfie switched to Wipro.
- Khiru is now an Auditor at C&AG. Finally, he found something he will enjoy doing.
- 1 hair cut in entire year and that too because I got dengue and needed to go to Jamshedpur and folks at home don't like long hairs. Will try for 2 in 2017.
- Due to on-off hospital visits, no trips this year.
- Some pics I took this year of which I am proud of. You can have a quick look at them if you want.
- One plus one got retired in early August. Today there was news of Cyanogen Inc shutting down.
- Two friends bought DSLR 's and I liked their photography pages on Facebook. One is a brilliant photographer, other I don't understand what does he wants to do other than attention seeking.
On the blogging side :
25 posts. (Target of posting twice a month achieved.)
1145 visitors. (Last year it was 850)
12000 views. (Last year it was ~9000)
These figures are disappointing considering the points that not even the people present in my friendlist (both Facebook and Twitter) reads them. Only 2-3 reads them and I know it thanks to WordPress comprehensive stats system. So when your friend circle doesn't read it, then how it will reach to more people because they have to react to it so that it may reach to more (different) people from their respective friendlists. But they don't read it and if they are reading it, they need to react on it. I have around 320 people in my Facebook friendlist and only 65 accepted Page-like request.
This year's biggest lesson :
You need to have a vehicle to gain and maintain friends if you don't have good looks.
I don't know how to ride and drive and I am definitely not decent looking. So that explains all.
Fuck you guys! May you all rot in hell.
A pretty insignificant year, I think.
This time, there isn't a video section, instead there is my Saavn playlist for the year 2016.
Atlast , Happy New Year fellas !

DHARAMSHALA: Around 100 people, at the behest of the Chinese embassy in South Africa, staged a protest at the University of Stellenbosch while CTA President Dr Lobsang Sangay was addressing the students and faculty of the University's law department on 8 February.
The protesters comprised of both South Africans as well as Chinese. The protesters were seen raising slogans such as 'One China' and 'Stop Splitting Tibet from China' and carrying banners such as 'One China Policy ', in what seemed like a glaring case of being oblivious to the core issue of the Tibetan struggle. His Holiness the Dalai Lama and the Central Tibetan Administration have long renounced complete independence for Tibet. They have proposed the Middle Way Approach, which seeks genuine autonomy for Tibet maintaining the 'one China policy' that the protesters themselves were calling for in their protest in Cape Town.
The protesters entered and disrupted the main auditorium with the aim to disrupt the CTA President's address. However, the event was shifted to another auditorium.
While addressing the students, Dr Sangay reminisced having listened to Cyril Ramaphosa speak at Harvard Law School and being told that South Africa has one of the most progressive constitutions and that it ensures equality and freedom. But lamented that currently it looks as though a watering down of the constitution and its values is taking place.
"I've walked the same path as South Africa has walked and its the same message I want to communicate: to embrace the values of the constitution. You must all embrace it and uphold it. If South Africa could achieve success, so can Tibet, without violence," Dr Sangay said.
After the address, around 30 protesters raised slogans again "Shame on you" "one China". However, Dr Sangay smiled and showed a victory sign symbolizing the victory of freedom of speech.
Speaking about the protests, CTA President Dr Lobsang Sangay said: "The Chinese protesters practiced and witnessed freedom of speech today."
He appreciated the fact that university stood its ground despite pressure from various quarters to cancel the event. "The University especially the law school stood up for freedom of speech and the values enshrined in the South African constitution. It's admirable that there are people who'll continue to uphold the spirit of democracy and human rights," he said.
Responding to the protests staged on campus, Martin Viljoen, senior communication official for Stellenbosch University, said the University of Stellenbosch supports the principles of freedom of speech, the promotion of academic freedom, and robust debate within the framework of the constitution.
Reacting to the protests, Dhardon Sharling, Secretary (equivalent) for information at the Department of Information and International Relations, Central Tibetan Administration, said: "The protest was evidently orchestrated by the Chinese embassy in South Africa as Chinese embassy officials were seen distributing pamphlets and banners at the protest site. This is corroborated by the fact that the embassy issued a statement in light of the protests."
In what can be considered an unprecedented move, the embassy of the People's Republic of China in the Republic of South Africa issued a press statement on its official website lauding the 'massive protests.' Titled 'The Sneaked-in Head of "Tibetan Administration in Exile" Met with Massive Local Protest,' the statement mentioned "When the news spreads that the self-proclaimed "President" of the "Tibetan Administration in Exile" Lobsang Sangay attempted to address the Faculty of Law at the Stellenbosch University on 8 Feb, hundreds of South African locals and members of the Chinese community traveled to the school to express, in a peaceful and orderly gathering, their strongest anger and rejection of the move by the politician to sabotage China-SA relations."
Responding to the Chinese embassy's statement, Dhardon Sharling said "till now, the Chinese government has been coercing governments across the world not to meet His Holiness the Dalai Lama and leaders of the Central Tibetan Administration. However, this time, the fact that they are publicly doing this is a paradigm shift in their approach and clearly exposes their insecurity on the issue of Tibet."
The Inkatha Freedom Party led by its founder and president Prince Mangosuthu Buthelezi condemned the South African Chinese embassy's actions in response to CTA President Dr Lobsang Sangay visit to the country. It released a press release yesterday in which it expressed its outrage at the lengths the Chinese government will go to in order to silence the voice of the Tibetan people in South Africa.
"Yesterday's staged [Chinese] Embassy protestations against the president of the Tibetan government in exile, Dr Lobsang Sangay, when he visited the law faculty at Stellenbosch University will bring nothing but further shame and disgrace to China as it continues with its policy of oppression against the people of Tibet, no matter where in the world they may be found," IFP Chief Whip in Parliament, Mr Narend Singh MP said.
Sandy Kalyan, a member of the South African Parliament from the country's largest opposition party, the Democratic Alliance (DA) condemned China's opposition to the visit of Dr Lobsang Sangay, to South Africa. Calling the behaviors of the Chinese embassy as akin to a child throwing tantrum, Sandy called on China to stop "overstepping" on South Africa's sovereign rights.
"In a manner reminiscent of a child throwing a tantrum, the Chinese issued a strongly worded statement that the visit would result in Chinese investment being discouraged. Such veiled threats to the Government of SA cannot be ever entertained. If China wants to go, it should go. The time for non South Africans to hold the South African Government to ransom is long gone," wrote MP Sandy.

Dr. Calvin Williams earned a bachelor's degree in biological sciences from DePaul University in Chicago and a doctorate of medicine from Harvard Medical School in Boston. He completed his internship at the University of Chicago Medical Center then arrived in Dallas for his dermatology residency at UT Southwestern.
"I began to notice early in life how important our outside appearance can affect how we feel and how we're perceived by the world around," Dr. Williams says. "Our skin is not only important for our appearance, but also for our overall health, which is why in medical school I made the decision to become a dermatologist."
Dr. Calvin Williams enjoys caring for patients with a variety of conditions, including psoriasis, acne, warts, hair loss and skin cancer.
"The most rewarding part of practicing in dermatology is being able to participate in the care of my patients and observe their improvement," Dr. Williams says.
Dr. Williams enjoys treating all skin types and has a particular interest in treating skin of color. As an African-American dermatologist, Dr. Williams understands first hand how darker skin can often get misdiagnosed. Some skin conditions appear much differently on darker complected skin compared to lighter skin tones, such as eczema and psoriasis. If not diagnosed and treated properly, patients with darker skin can suffer pigmentation problems.
In his spare time, he enjoys spending time with family members, traveling, attending sporting events and mentoring at-risk youth.

Snoop Lion and will.i.am released their respective new albums yesterday but both seem to be struggling a bit on the charts. HDD reports that Snoop Lion's debut album Reincarnated (which has received some good reviews by the way) is expected to sell 18-21k copies in the first week while will.i.am's sophomore LP #WillPower is in the range of 20-25k.
Both albums have a chance of debuting inside the top 10 on Billboard next week but well short of the leader Michael Bublé's new album To Be Loved which will top the charts with sales of about 150-175k.

Last week I went to Wyoming to attend a workshop with Cowboy Artist, Jim Norton. I took a couple of days getting there and painted at the Horseshoe Bend overlook while I was in Page, AZ. I took a detour to see Bryce Canyon, but didn't paint because of the rain. The workshop focused on really seeing color and value changes, not only in our horse models, but in the landscape as well. We spent a great deal of time focusing on anatomy of the horse and the interaction of light and shadow. I had the opportunity to paint the horse with and without a saddle, and one with a pack on. During one exercise, Jim limited us to one brush stroke per minute! I had the chance to paint the beautiful Wyoming landscape as well. One afternoon, we got to photograph Andrew Goudy, Jim's long time painting model. He was also our cook for the week. I think I gained 10 pounds, Adobe is going to think we're riding double!
On my way home, I met up with Utah photographer Gene Praag. He is truly an inspiring photographer, and has powerfully captured the life of Wild Horses. Standing in the midst of this herd, and quietly watching their interaction, was one of the most powerful experiences I have ever had! My sincere thanks to Gene and Valerie Praag for their hospitality. Please visit his site for a glimpse into the life of these Wild Horses.

Nazi Germany gave Israel one last parting gift before being defeated by the Allies.
When Israel refined the Law of Return, the Israeli architects decided to base their definition of "Who is a Jew" mostly according to Jewish Halacha (with certain exceptions and ambiguities), but determined that eligibility under the immigration laws would be similar to Nazi Germany's Nuremberg style definitions. The logic, if you were persecuted as a Jew, then you were eligible to come to Israel.
Ben-Gurion allegedly called it the "grandfather clause" and Israel's response to Hitler.
[Reader Jerry correctly pointed out in the comments section, that the law actually defines 'Who is a Jew' almost based on Halacha, but the Law of Return itself only uses the definition of who is a Jew as the basis for applying the Nuremberg-style rules as to who qualifies to emmigrate under that law - i.e. anyone 1/8 Jewish (or married to someone like that) is eligible to return).]
From the Knesset Website:
"Rights of members of family
4A. (a) The rights of a Jew under this Law
and the rights of an oleh under the Nationality Law, 5712-1952***, as well as the rights of an oleh under any other enactment, are also vested in a child and a grandchild of a Jew, the spouse of a Jew, the spouse of a child of a Jew and the spouse of a grandchild of a Jew, except for a person who has been a Jew and has voluntarily changed his religion.
4B. For the purposes of this Law, "Jew" means a person who was born of a Jewish mother or has become converted to Judaism and who is not a member of another religion."
A logical idea, if your sole rationale for the state is as a physical sanctuary as opposed to a Jewish state to fulfill our national destiny.
And of course, Reform Judaism (also a product of Germany) and the Fundamental Secularists has strongly defended this definition of the Law of Return as their definition of Jewish is just as diluted and limited.
The result is that when the Iron Curtain fell and all the Russian Jews returned home to Israel quite a sizeable contingent of non-Jews used this as an opportunity immigrate to Israel too.
And with no real connection to Jews or Judaism, they brought certain parts of their culture with them.
Yet you would certainly expect that after living in Israel, going to Israeli schools, and living in Israeli society that they would start to feel some sort of connection to their chosen society.
But that is really too much to expect.
After all, we have an Education Minister trying to remove any remnant of Jewish education from the curriculum, while disconnecting Jewish secular students from their sole potential connection to Orthodox Jews by canceling the National Service arrangements with the schools, not to mention adding Arab propaganda to the curriculum.
We have Reform Judaism trying their best to promote their diluted form of Judaism and simply calling non-Jews Jews with mock conversions (not to mention attempting to disconnect 'Temple and State' in Israel).
And the Fundie Secularists are doing their best to simply remove Judaism from Israel (except perhaps from the museum).
So what chance does a non-Jewish Russian immigrant have if he was already introduced to Nazi culture in Russia, brought it with him, and has no wholesome or Jewish culture/values to replace them with?
I'd say none at all.
Maybe it's time to put Jewish back into the Jewish State.

But when Daniel learned that the law had been signed, he went home and knelt down as usual in his upstairs room, with its windows open toward Jerusalem. He prayed three times a day, just as he had always done, giving thanks to his God. Daniel 6:10
Dear brothers and sisters, when troubles of any kind come your way, consider it an opportunity for great joy. For you know that when your faith is tested, your endurance has a chance to grow. So let it grow, for when your endurance is fully developed, you will be perfect and complete, needing nothing. James 1:2-4
Fearing people is a dangerous trap, but trusting the Lord means safety. Proverbs 29:25
No discipline is enjoyable while it is happening—it's painful! But afterward there will be a peaceful harvest of right living for those who are trained in this way. Hebrews 12:11
So be truly glad. There is wonderful joy ahead, even though you must endure many trials for a little while. These trials will show that your faith is genuine. It is being tested as fire tests and purifies gold—though your faith is far more precious than mere gold. So when your faith remains strong through many trials, it will bring you much praise and glory and honor on the day when Jesus Christ is revealed to the whole world. 1 Peter 1:6-7
Daniel's leadership peers wanted it to be that they would find Daniel praying when they arrived at his house. They wanted it to be that Daniel would become guilty of breaking the new law. They wanted it to be that Daniel would be thrown in the lion's den and die so that he could not be appointed to the position of authority over them by King Darius. The whole premise of the plan concocted by the leadership peers of Daniel counted on Daniel praying to his God in spite of the new law. That is quite a remarkable thing - Daniel's enemies knew he would not violate his commitments and convictions regarding his faith in his God. Why was it that what Daniel would do or not do was such a sure thing? I believe it was because Daniel's motivation to experience the rewards of staying true to his faith and not to experience the consequences of being unfaithful was greater than the motivation for any temporary pleasure the world might give or any relief from the consequeces that might come from not running counter to the culture. This is what the image of "windows open" conveys. The passages above present a value system about the role of testing and trials that needs to be in place in our lives. Our oriententation to comfort, convienience, and the path of least resistence make it hard for us to welcome and embrace testing and trials. This must change if we are to be like Daniel who could be counted on to hold true to the commitment and convictions of his faith
And so Lord, I ask you to bring this change about in my life. I confess that I am spiritually soft and need the conditioning effects of testing and trials. I am willing to let you more effectively use testing and trials to produce the spiritual muscle and stamina necessary to make me spiritually fit. Forgive me Lord for my resistence and for my lack of faith in your wise provision for what is truly necessary in my life. Your will be done!

But where do these players fly? What systems do they have?
I have Windows 10 and I cannot DL 1946 from Steam.
Anyway il-2:1946 from gog.com have no OS restriction, neither DRM.
Because of the amazing range of aircraft types and maps, Il2: 1946 is still attractive to many single players.
There might be quite a lot of pilots who are not very interested in the Russian theater or the Bob (for example because there was no American participation in both).
Moving to North Africa and adding Martlets and P 40s thus seems a wise move for TFS.
The fans of the Pacific theater are still depending on 1946.
I don't think it will ever be possible to create such a wide variety of maps and aircraft in a sim that has the complexity and quality of CloD.
Far too much work for a far too small customer base.
easier to build missions in 46 also

Trust me , I fly a Bf 110 (C2-->C7)
I only play IL2 1946 BAT for the Pacific, carrier ops, ect. I'm tired of the Eastern Front, not because of plane type, because it's so over done. BAT mod has a very decent BoB campaign that I enjoy very much. I just wish I could get a handle on the FMB in CLoD, so I could make some campaigns but baby steps.

"It's show and tell time," Mrs. Reeves, my first grade teacher, announced, "Who would like to go first?"
Before she finished speaking, my hand shot up. I waved it rapidly to get her attention as, "ME, ME, ME" I squealed.
"Teri, I think you have something to share with us."
My face lit with a grin as I popped out of my chair, snatching the bag at my feet. "Mrs. Reeves may I use the globe?" She set it on her desk within my reach.
Oooos and aaahs filled the room.
"Thank you, Teri for sharing your special gift with us."
As a navy brat I loved show and tell. I'm sure my obnoxious eagerness wore Mrs. Reeves out but I also think she appreciated the geography lessons I gave.
God knows we need show and tell. The first two thirds of the Bible show us faith through story. Then God elaborates through the epistles the precepts those stories illustrate. In my last two blogs I've shared some of His precepts on communication, rules for listening and speaking. I began my blog, 5 Rules for Listening, by lamenting the effect of political correctness on our communication. Now It's show time! What follows in this and my next blog are three examples of audacious communication that shatter our concepts of political correctness and cultural politeness. These shocking stories also show great listening and speaking skills; communication God used for His glory.
EliWho? Job's True Counselor, God's MC
The curtain rises. In center stage is a pastor. His head hangs down. A pained look covers his face; his eyes red and puffy, his cheeks tear stained. On either side of him are three other men; the mayor, the police chief, and the high school principle. They are all silent but their brows are drawn together and their mouths twisted with sympathetic frowns. At the far end in the rear of the stage sits…someone. I wonder if a young stage hand forgot to get off stage. Then the drama starts as the police chief breaks the silence, "Pastor, just tell us what you've done! We'll forgive you. You should confess your sin now before it becomes public."
"If only that were the cause," the pastor wails, "but I can't think of how I could require such painful chastening."
The all condemnation breaks loose as the three accuse the pastor. The pastor retaliates in self defense. The theater fills with the tension of the scene. The young man in the background seems just as drawn into it as the audience. Finally weary of argument, all four voices fall silent. We expect the curtain to close and the cast to prepare the next scene. Then the young kid in the back stands. He looks heavenward as though praying and drags his feet to take center stage.
"Eli what are you doing here?" gripes the principle.
"I've been concerned for Pastor too, I was hoping you would help him but you are just accusing him without any evidence. I'm really disappointed in how mean you're being. Like soldiers shooting a wounded man. You ought to be ashamed of your selves…" Now we realize the young kid is an actor playing Eli, a high school student. He continues a twenty minute rant against the older, well respected men then turns to the Pastor and reminds him God answers to no one, telling the pastor his conversation had been out of line too. The other four characters along with the audience gasp in disbelief at the audacity of the angry youth. Are you getting a sense of how incensed they were?
Welcome to a modern day retelling of Job. Sandwiched between the six major characters of Job; The Lord, Satan, Job, and three miserable comforters, speaks an almost forgotten voice. His name was Elihu. What he says of himself and God's silence concerning him, reveal a few important facts. He was by his own admission much younger than the other four men. The fact that he waits until everyone else exhausted their words shows he was both humble and patient, a good listener. His message in Job 36-37 communicates his unbridled passion for truth. When God rebukes Job and convicts the other three friends Elihu is not mentioned. God's never addresses Elihu, confirmation that his words were righteous.
In most cultures throughout history youth are taught to respect their elders. An old Victorian expectation, still held in some circles, is "Children should be seen, not heard." The Bible teaches the younger to respect the older but what if the elders are teaching falsehood or need correcting? Does God prohibit those younger from rebuking them? Of course not! He used Elihu for just that purpose.
How do we handle criticism or correction from those junior to us? I hope we listen to them the way we should listen to everyone, with a humble, gracious spirit. We old dogs just may learn some new tricks.
Next Friday I'll share another shocking tale. Hope you join me for some more show and tell.
Father, please, give us teachable spirits even when the teacher you send our way may be a young whipper snapper.

(EDITOR'S NOTE : from time to time, noted Bronx baseball executive Randy L. graces CSTB's vast readership with his thoughts on the events of the day, sporting and otherwise. Upon the the New York Yankees' introduction of 3 Bombers-branded wines, Randy asked, no, he insisted on having his say – GC)
If we can adjourn for just a moment from thoroughly dull topics such as the Stanley Cup Finals, the Belmont Stakes and our crosstown "rivals" going into the tank even earlier than usual, I'd like to draw your attention to a unique opportunity to turn your shitty studio apartment / parents' basement or Red Hook hovel that you share with a half dozen other aspiring artistic geniuses into a palace with all the ambiance of NYY Steak. If only for a night.
I am fully aware that most of the persons reading this haven't been on a date since Waldman's last pregnancy test (and the two dates in history might not be unrelated), but that's why your best buddy Randy L. is here to add some class to your sad fucking existence. Not since Neil Strauss' award winning "I'm A Schmendrick With Revenge Fantasies" DVD box set has there been a more sure-fire means of locking down an evening with that special someone. Whether you chose our 2012 Russian River Valley Chardonnay, the 2011 Paso Robles Cabernet Sauvignon, or our New York Yankees™ Reserve 2013 Finger Lakes Dry Riesling (do not worry, we can vouch for the fact Brian Cashman's fingers have come nowhere near these bottles), you'll have no trouble demonstrating to the object of your affections that you're part of the same tradition, success and grandeur one associates with The Yankee Universe.
Every since we announced the launch of these excellent-yet-affordable wines, my phone has been blowing up with any number of Yankee alumni eager for free samples. Mickey Rivers, Jason Giambi, Luis Polonia, Joba Chamberlain, Shane Spencer, they're all eager to find out just how special these wines are. Even Vin Baker's been in touch, though I'm pretty certain he's never been part of our organization.
Of course, all of he above are gonna have to pay just like the peasants reading this. We didn't become the most successful professional team sports franchise of all-time by just giving stuff away.

A complaint filed to the Intelligence Community's Inspector General has accused the Ukraine whistleblower, believed to be a CIA operative named Eric Ciaramella, of violating federal law by soliciting money and gifts via a GoFundMe page that has so far raised nearly $230,000, Fox News reports.
The GoFundMe page
Fox only just received a copy of the complaint, which was filed last week. It alleges that the donations from roughly 6,000 individuals "clearly constitute" gifts to a current intelligence official, which may be restricted because of the employee's official position pursuant to 5 CFR 2635.203 and other statutes.
The complaint also raised the possibility that some of the donations may have come from prohibited sources, and urged the ICIG to investigate whether any "foreign citizen or agent of a foreign government" contributed.
Tully Rinckey, the whistleblower's law firm, is refusing to comment on his identity despite several reports claiming to identify the whistleblower. However, they have at least confirmed that the holder of the top-secret SCI security clearance has served in government.
The fundraising page claims that "donations will only be accepted from US citizens." But most of the donors who have contributed were not named, and it's likely the ICIG will need to subpoena GoFundMe to learn the identities of all 6,000+ donors.
For the record, the whistleblower's law firm isn't trying to obscure the campaign. In fact, they have insinuated that they started the campaign on behalf of their client, perhaps because of the tremendous legal bills that he will likely be saddled with from his campaign to undermine the president.
The whistleblower's attorneys have called the GoFundMe a way to "help support the Intelligence Community Whistleblower [to] raise funds," and the GoFundMe page itself states that "A U.S. intelligence officer... needs your help" in the form of a "crowdfunding effort to support the whistleblower's lawyers."
Though the ICIG's office refused to comment on the case for Fox, it's worth noting that the Office of Government Ethics (OGE) warned federal government employees earlier this year that they "may not accept any gift given because of the employee's official position," meaning that the gift would "not have been given had the employee not held the status, authority, or duties associated with the employee's federal position."
Still, some pundits insisted they thought the fund raiser would probably qualify as legal. Others said one could argue that the donations count as a "gift", and are therefore illegal.
Whatever happens, it's a moot point. Because it's likely the whistleblower's law firm will take every cent of that money in "fees".

1 All-Ireland junior title (2008)
11 Leinster senior titles
4 National League titles
When you look at some of the players that have passed through our midfield over the years and haven't got close to that its remarkable, yet he had the fortune of being part of great Dublin teams.
Always dependable and a clam head in the frenzy he was always understated but at times pivotal in the years of 2013, 2015,2016 in my opinion and gave many other lads the foundation to pay.
Wish him and his family all the best in retirement, he will be missed.

Take a look at it on YouTube again. He has literally just come on the pitch and Aidan and Séamie O'Shea comesover and give him a little push, the usual auld stuff. 30 seconds later and Bastick is streaming in on goal with the two O'Sheas 20 metres behind him!
He did really well to work his way back in 2015. The switch to a more solid defensive platform was good for him and I thought he had a good year that year.

NEW POST – James Hardie Siding Trends for 2020
James Hardie siding is a great option for homeowners in Calgary. If you have been considering updating your vinyl siding or other exterior finish, you have likely heard of this high performance product.
Hubbard Roofing & Exteriors is proud to be part of the James Hardie Contractor Alliance. As a member of this program, we have exclusive access to advanced training opportunities on installation best practices to ensure your siding is installed to the highest standards.
Why James Hardie?
James Hardie is a fiber cement product that combines beauty with functionality. The exterior of your home is exposed to the elements all day, every day, so it is important to choose a product that will stand the test of time.
Hardie products are tested against worst-case scenarios: UV rays, snowstorms, hail and much more. Changes in seasons also challenge the exterior of your home (cracking in the cold, expanding and contracting with temperature fluctuations, etc.) and only James Hardie products are specially "Engineered for Climate®".
Hardie Siding (also commonly known as Hardie Plank or Hardie Board in Calgary) is 5x thicker than vinyl siding which allows for deeper grooves resulting in a more authentic wood grain effect. Traditional siding may crack or warp but Hardie siding is noncombustible, water resistant, and built to resist the impact of hail.
James Hardie siding uses ColorPlus® Technology to create a vibrant, long lasting finish. The boards are baked with multiple coats of paint which creates a superior finish adhesion, UV resistance and color retention.
James Hardie Warranty
James Hardie provides a non-prorated, 30 year warranty on their siding products. ColorPlus Technology finishes and HardieTrim boards come with 15-year limited warranties.
Get Started
Contact us today to set-up an appointment with one of our James Hardie product experts. We will use a 3D estimator to build a scaled model of your home to help visualize how the different products (lap siding, vertical siding, shake siding) and colors will compliment your home.

A few weeks ago, a few members of our Cava team journeyed to Leone Produce in Vineland, New Jersey.
Nestled just a few hours from DC (not too far from Philly), Leone Produce is a collection of farms focused on growing a bounty of vegetables — including spinach, mint, onions, rainbow chard, leeks, arugula, and many others. This collaborative setting is a family enterprise, with many farms claiming numerous generations of farmers.
This time of year, the salad greens harvest is in full swing, and we got a front-row seat to the action and the growers' passion for their craft. One thing that was extremely evident was how proud the farmers were of their product — quality and freshness matter above all.
Sam Leone, the leader of Leone Produce, added:
"The cost of doing it right and the cost of just doing it are two different things. But doing it right goes a long way. Supplying to local restaurants means we can enjoy the fruits of our labor."
Visiting the gorgeous, sprawling mint fields at the Leone Produce consortium gave us a peek into the very beginnings of our Strawberry Mint Lime Juice. Seriously, if you've never stood in the middle of a mint field, start looking for a way to make it happen – the smell is incredibly intoxicating.
Another of the Leone Produce team members, hailing from Dan Graiff Farms, discussed how they manage to hold their salad green crops, like spinach, to such high quality standards: It's all about soil quality.
"A big crop rotation and the planting of cover crops, like sorghum and winter wheat, help to put more nutrients in the soil and ensure healthy produce."
We are proud to source from farms that hold the same high standards of quality and craftsmanship that we do. Sourcing from growers and producers like Leone Produce — and many other Mid-Atlantic favorites — continues to be incredibly fulfilling.
All of our fresh baby spinach this season will come from Leone Produce — so dig in and support a great collective of local farms!

I was trying to get some information on buying an Applesauce FD controller. I've had no luck in this endeavor and I thought maybe someone on this forum could shed some light on it. The project was definitely active as of a couple months ago.
Basically if you go to the main web site https://applesaucefdc.com it talks about the project being active with a new software release as of September 6. There is also a teardown and review video. But there is no where on their web site to place an order. There is a search feature on their web site, and I tried searching for "order", and the search results had a pre-order web page with a form. However, on this hidden pre-order form, there is a required field for "Order Code from the email you received from us". Obviously, I have no such "order code" since when I attempt to email them, I never receive a response.
Applesauce also has a facebook page at https://www.facebook.com/groups/5251478676/permalink/10157597145223677. Here they talk about taking pre-orders as of June 6 by emailing email@example.com. I tried sending an email to place a pre-order, but received no response.
You can also go to the wiki that ReactiveMicro hosts at https://wiki.reactivemicro.com/Applesauce. Here it talks about ReactiveMicro being an authorized Applesauce service provider, where they offer to ship refurbished Apple II drives with the Applesauce controller. However, I emailed Henry and he replied saying that they don't sell Applesauce.
So I guess the project is dead? Or it's an impenetrable secret society? Can anyone confirm?

Le Droit Chemin
Rightly described as "sublime" in the guidebook. A pocketed technical slab gives way to a strenuous overhanging pitch, which can also be overcome in A0. The rock and atmosphere on this 8 pitch route in the Sector Paroi Rouge are magnificent and well worth the longish walk-in.
From Grenoble there are two alternatives. Either follow signs for the Vercours park through the narrow gorges via Villard De Lans and Choranche. Before Pont en Royans turn right to the village Presles. Alternativley, drive north up the motorway, exit at St. Romans and continue for Pont en Royan and Presles.
Before reaching Presles (65km from Grenoble) leave the car at the penultimate hairpin curve (tiny parking lot). A small path leads down southwards to the left-hand sectors. Alternatively, park the car slightly higher on the side of the road or on the edge of the plateau. (the descent path leads down to here). Access to the more distant sectors (Paroi Rouge & Triangle de Choranche) is either from above via abseils (equipped descent line), or from the road which leads to the Choranche cave.
The best way to get to this route is to abseil in from "Tatachat". From the parking lot continue by car towards Presles and turn right, before the village, for Le Charmeil. Leave the car at the next fork, the village Penon ("escalade" marks the parking lot), walk past a house to a forest road and then continue along a path with red triangular markers (rappel Tatachat). This walk-in takes about 45mins. The abseil chain is wrapped around a tree. Beware of the penultimate abseil – it is 50m long and exposed. The final abseil follows the line of the route and the name is written at the base.
Easy walk back along the path
Superbly equipped pitches and belays
