(from Keeneland notes)
The first five finishers in yesterday's $750,000 Toyota Blue Grass (gr. I) -- Dominican, Street Sense, Zanjero, Teuflesberg and Great Hunter -- are all, according to their connections, pointing toward a start in the May 5 Kentucky Derby (gr. I) Presented by Yum! Brands (gr. I). Four of those five were separated by only a neck at the wire in yesterday's race.
On Sunday, trainer Darrin Miller was still savoring Dominican's upset win, and said he is "thinking" about the Kentucky Derby as the gelding's next start. Dominican thrust himself into the Derby picture with his nose victory over heavily favored Street Sense.
"So far he looks great," Miller said when asked how his horse came out of the Blue Grass. "He's the same Dominican as he was before; he was very aggressive this morning." Dominican was hand walked under the shedrow on Sunday.
Miller said he is undecided about when to ship Dominican to Churchill Downs since "he does so well" at Keeneland. The son of El Corredor who is owned by Silverton Hill, finished third to Tiz Wonderful and Any Given Saturday in last fall's Kentucky Jockey Club (gr. II) at Churchill.
Miller also is considering Sedgefield, fourth in the Central Bank Transylvania (gr. IIIT) on opening day, for the Derby. "I'm just going to train him like we're going and see what happens," he added.
Trainer Carl Nafzger reported that beaten favorite Street Sense jogged a mile over the Churchill Downs track Sunday morning. "Everything is good," he said from his barn in Louisville.
"I told the track photographer he just took the picture at the wrong time," Nafzger laughed, referring to the colt leading in the final strides.
Third-place finisher Zanjero came out of the Blue Grass "really well" according to Scott Blasi, assistant to trainer Steve Asmussen. He said Zanjero, owned by Winchell Thoroughbreds, will make his next start in the Kentucky Derby.
Co-owner and trainer Jamie Sanders pronounced fourth-place finisher Teuflesberg as "very good" Sunday morning. The son of Johannesburg set a slow pace through much of the Blue Grass but drifted out in deep stretch and was overtaken at the end.
Though disappointed with the narrow loss, Sanders said she was pleased with Teuflesberg's big effort, which reportedly gave the colt the graded stakes earnings needed to be competitive among the top 20 prospective Kentucky Derby contenders.
Second-choice Great Hunter finished fifth in the Blue Grass after jockey Corey Nakatani had to take up when Teuflesberg drifted out at the sixteenth pole.
"He's happy. He came out good. He's walking okay," said trainer Doug O'Neill's assistant, Sabas Rivera, about Great Hunter on Sunday morning. "We'll just keep going."

When people get into a harsh disagreement, it is not uncommon for one or both of them to think that the other one is stupid. If it is a really harsh disagreement, they might even say so out loud.
After all, the only possible explanation for the fact that you refuse to agree with me is that your puny little brain gets in the way.
But the other day some very superficial reporting (the only kind of science reporting most of us ever see) came out about a new study on how the human brain works. So now we can think that people who don't agree with us are not dumb. They are mentally ill.
Well, that's a way to make political debate more civil, isn't it?
Research done on people who suffer from clinical depression, using MRIs to watch their mental innards, shows that such folks are not people whose brains aren't working. They are people whose brains won't shut up.
A well-functioning brain, looked at with such tools, shows that certain areas are active when its owner is doing certain things: singing, smelling, remembering a childhood event, etc., etc.
But brains belonging to people who suffer from depression, according to these pictures, are ablaze all at once. We're talking real clinical depression here, not just feeling a little blue because of the weather or the last Jazz game.
It's called hyperconnectivity and, even though it would be hard to call someone whose brain is firing on all cylinders at once unintelligent, it's apparently still bad.
Which brings to mind the brains of the Utah Legislature. Their hyperconnected selves are working on bills to:
• Gut all public school sex education programs, even though there's serious statistical evidence that what we've got is already too little, too late.
• Force students to recite the Pledge of Allegiance, more often and in more places, for no reason other than that the Legislature has the power to command such foolishness.
• Stage a little Fort Sumter by demanding that the federal government turn over millions of acres of federal land in the state, even though the state can't take care of the land it has and only wants more so it can sell it for tar sand flimflams.
• Put some ridiculous constitutional limits on state revenues, even though Utah's budget process is among the skin-flintiest you will ever see.
• Stand between local elected officials and the people who elected them by arrogantly blocking city measures on billboards, vehicle engine idling and the display of firearms.
A savvy politician in another state, one who was well adjusted enough to know what to worry about and what not to, once explained to me that most members of most legislatures don't run for office, take all that time away from their families and businesses, just to sit there and do nothing. Even when doing nothing would be good.
So they come up with all kinds of silly, useless, disruptive and damaging bits of legislation called "message bills" in these parts just to justify their existence.
Usually, it is liberals who are accused of refusing to sit still and accept the status quo. My short experience watching the New York Legislature, though, was a view of a totally deadlocked process, where little good or bad got done.
And in Utah it is the so-called conservative brains that have been turned all the way up to 11 on a scale of 10.
Maybe we'd be better off if they really were just as stupid as we used to say they were.

Global Social Betterment & Humanitarian Programs Sponsored by the Church of Scientology
Church of Scientology Pasadena Hosts Forum to Tackle Teen Drug Abuse
Pasadena leaders at the Truth About Drugs Prevention Forum at the Church of Scientology of Pasadena April 20 joined forces in fight against drug epidemic.
More than 80 civic, community and religious leaders representing over a dozen groups and associations attended a Truth About Drugs Prevention Forum April 20 at the Church of Scientology of Pasadena. The purpose: to tackle rising teen drug abuse in the Pasadena area.
Speakers included Los Angeles County Sheriff Lee Baca; Sergeant mark Cripe of the Sheriff's VIDA program of at-risk youth; Jesse Mendoza of the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Executive Clergy Council; Gary Moody, President of Pasadena NAACP; Tarik Ross of the Amer-I-Can program; Jessica Ruiz and Porfirio Frausto of the Flintridge Foundation; Dr. Nicholas Benson, Vice President of the Ecumenical Council Pasadena Area Congregations; and Bob Adams of the Church of Scientology International.
According to the most recent California Healthy Kids Survey for the Pasadena Unified School District, 19 percent of 7th graders and 33 percent of 11th graders surveyed are "current AOD (alcohol and other drugs) users"—they have used alcohol or illicit drugs in the past 30 days.
"Our community's greatest wealth is our ability and willingness to truly help one another," said Eden Stein, President of the Church of Scientology of Pasadena. "Working together, we can save the lives and futures of our youth."
The Truth About Drugs is a drug education and prevention program supported by the Church of Scientology. Because of the effectiveness of its educational materials, many Los Angeles County groups and organizations have adopted the program, several of whom shared their experience with forum attendees.
Sergeant Mark Cripe, county-wide director of the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department VIDA program (Vital Intervention and Directional Alternatives), spoke of the results he and his deputies have achieved using the Truth About Drugs curriculum with at-risk youth and youth who have turned to drugs and crime. He said he uses the Truth About Drugs program because it is "the best."
Jesse Mendoza, Director of Victory Outreach Youth Activities for South Los Angeles, told attendees why he uses the Truth About Drugs in his work. He particularly values the public service announcements and feature-length documentary, The Truth About Drugs: Real People, Real Stories.
Over the past 10 years, Dr. Nicholas Benson has graduated 5,000 inmates from the halfway house he runs. He learned of the Truth About Drugs program and put it to use in weekly drug education classes. Drug and alcohol problems were significant factors in what went wrong in the lives of most of his residents and the curriculum helps them examine their own circumstances and make important decisions for the future.
The Church of Scientology has published a brochure, Scientology: How We Help—The Truth About Drugs, Creating a Drug-Free World, to meet requests for more information about the drug education and prevention initiative it supports. To learn more or read a copy of the brochure, visit the Scientology website [8].
Scientology Founder L. Ron Hubbard wrote, "The planet has hit a barrier which prevents any widespread social progress—drugs and other biochemical substances. These can put people into a condition which not only prohibits and destroys physical health but which can prevent any stable advancement in mental or spiritual well-being."
The Church of Scientology supports the Truth About Drugs, one of the world's largest nongovernmental drug education and prevention campaigns. It has been conclusively proven that when young people are provided with the truth about drugs—factual information on what drugs are and what they do—usage rates drop commensurately.

Several mills in Maine have seen recent turmoil.
Fulghum Fibres in Baileyville included.
"This chip mill was built in 1997. It was built to provide chips for Woodlawn Pulp, which is the customer on the other side of the fence. We do about a million tons a year of chips," said Chief Operations Officer, Kurt Malzer.
Fulghum Fibres has 36 operating around the world.
They have a team of 38 here.
On March 10th, Malzer says they were grinding in the maintenance area when sparks hit the floor.
"Went under a very small gap in the insulation in the floor and started to burn the insulation and dust material behind it," said Malzer.
They say they put it out, and later found that it had spread to another part of the building. Malzer says within an hour the whole building was on fire.
"You were happy that nobody got hurt, that was the main thing, and I knew this company, that there would be the support to what we were doing again," said Mark Seavey, mill manager.
Management says within three days thanks to the crew's ingenuity and creativity they had operations up to nearly 50%.
"We decided immediately that we were not going to be laying anybody off, we were going to keep the whole crew. We have them in a combination of either operating mobile equipment or helping us pull the mill down and work with contractors to rebuild it," said Malzer.
"It's been quite hectic, but everybody joined together and it's like one big family," said Gary Bell, the first mill manager and current consultant.
Malzer says although many of the employees are doing building things, and doing jobs they never have before it's been their resilience, and strength that has led them to overcome and help rebuild.
"Said, 'Hey. guys. we're staying the course,you're on the books, we can make this, we're going to fix this, and were going to move on,' and you could almost hear the collective sigh of relief, and we've just put our shoulder to the wheel since then," said Malzer.

PLEASE HELP: Need A Wisconsin Husky Expert Behaviorist
Recently got our 2yr old Sibe & found he has a horrible aggression towards anything he gets his hands on. Former owners had no problems. We can put our hands around his food or bones but when he gets something he's not suppose to, he growls loudly as he lunges forward to grab anything he can bite of yours.
In the past week he has punctured my palm and recntly bit my arm after telling him no and reaching for a straw he had been shredding. Dominance is key factor I think. Regular obedience has yet to do anything for him. He attends the daycare I work at and goes for hr long dog park runs 5-6 days of the week. Exercise I've read shouldnt be an excuse.
Need to find a behavioralist who is VERY knowledgeable about huskies to fix this issue or he's getting rehomeed, as I never have and refuse to own an aggressive dog.

Wow, I am sorry you are having such trouble with his resource guarding. I do not know of a behaviorist around you. I don't think dominance is really the key here. www.youtube.com
Have you tried trading him something even better? Example: a toy he loves or a tasty treat. I would suggest the book "MINE" by Jean Donaldson.
Obi answered on 12/25/12. Helpful? / 2
i would have to agree with obi. he is a jedi after all. lol. there are lots of fairly decent videos on resource guarding on you tube. idk for sure about the book obi mentioned. huskies and the other northern breeds do keep life interesting. trading for a special toy for the object also works well. try using a treat ball with some treats or peanut butter in it. he should learn quick that if he drops something on command he gets an awesome treat. good luck

The fact is, once a dog bites the hand that feeds it, it will always believe it is more powerful and will always be dangerous towards that person.
Vinnie answered on 12/27/12. Helpful? / 0
I agree with Obi. This is called resource guarding and it can be worked on. They had good suggestions on where to start. I totally disagree with Vinnie -- no behaviorist would agree with that either.
Kolbe answered on 12/27/12. Helpful? / 1
This is a very fixable behaviour and yes you are right -it is a dominant behaviour he is exhibiting.
When my Siberian was 9 weeks old he had the EXACT same issue with his resource guarding. On top of that he had food aggression.
I spoke with serval behaviourists who all assured me this a dominance issue I was having. I had NEVER experienced this with any of my previous Siberians so it was very new to me.
After 6 weeks of obedience training I noticed a HUGE improvement. .
I did extensive training with "drop it" and "leave it" commands. It took about 2 months until he would fully leave something that he knew he was not allowed to have. Occasionally he will still growl but allows me to take what he has away.
Your guy is older and it may take a little more work but it is something that with work can be fixed!
Good luck! :)

|Patriots Look Poised For Another Super Bowl Run
|Bruins Trade For Drew Stafford
|Black and Gold Bruins Turn Yellow On Parade Day
|Inconsistency Will Continue For Bruins Unless A Change Is Made
Tis the end of the line for a lot of you out there. Most leagues have wrapped up their action in Week 16, leaving some to celebrate and others to plan for 2010. To those in leagues where Week 17 is the championship game, then you need to stick around and soak up all of the advice you can get.
Sucks for anybody with Peyton Manning, Reggie Wayne, or anyone else valuable on the Colts. Having already locked up the #1 seed in the AFC, head coach Jim Caldwell benched most of his starters for the majorityof the second half of Sunday's game against the Jets. This came as a blow during most league's fantasy championships. Just send your hate mail to Caldwell.
Rookie QB Matthew Stafford was placed on the IR last Thursday, ending an injury-plagued rookie season. Daunte Culpepper and Drew Stanton will most likely share duties in the season finale against Chicago.
Panthers QB Jake Delhomme was placed on injured reserve with a broken right finger. The Panthers said they would like Delhomme back next season, but with the emergence of Matt Moore as a dependable QB, Delhomme may find himself riding the bench.
Brady, despite injuries, tore apart the Jaguars for 267 yds and 4 TD.
The Patriots clinched the AFC East on Sunday, so I can't see Brady playing that much against Houston. He may end up playing a couple of series and that's it.
With DeAngelo Williams out, Stewart ran wild all over Giants for a career-best 206 yds and a score.
I can't see a reason why the Panthers would rush DeAngelo Williams back for the season finale against against New Orleans, considering they are out of the playoff hunt. Start Stewart against the Saints, who have allowed 145+ rush yds in two straight games.
After just 6 catches for 74 yds in his previous two games, White regained his form with 8 catches for 139 yds and 2 TD against Buffalo.
Atlanta won't be going to the playoffs, but the starters should be playing anyway. White should put up good numbers against the lowly Bucs defense and White scored a TD in their last meeting.
Celek continued his breakout season with a season-high 121 yds and a score.
The Eagles are in the playoffs, but could jockey for a better position against the Cowboys, who will also want better seeding. Celek and the rest of the team should play all four quarters.
Janikowski went 3/3 on field goals including making a career-long 61 yarder.
The Raiders host the Ravens at home. Baltimore is actually pretty bad on the road, going 2-5 this season. The Raiders may give more opportunities than you think to Janikowski.
The Jets stopped the Colts' perfect season by allowing just 15 points while picking up 2 sacks, 1 INT, 1 fumble recovery, 1 blocked kick, and 2 TD (defensive and return)
The Jets are playing for a playoff spot, so they will be going all out against a Bengals team that has already clinched their division.
Jim Caldwell puled his starters in the 3rd quarter, leaving the best players with minimal stats. Manning came away with 192 yds and no scores.
Expect the same, and probably a little less this week as the Colts will rest their starters against Buffalo.
Williams has been on a roll this season, but he hit a roadblock against Houston and rushed for only 35 yds before leaving with a shoulder injury.
The injury is minor and Williams says he will be fine. The Dolphins are still in the hunt, so they should be firing on all cylinders against Pittsburgh (who are also fighting for the playoffs)
Marshall did have 8 receptions, but they only went for 39 yds against Philadelphia.
The Broncos haven't clinched a playoff spot yet, they still have to earn it. Marshall and Denver should have no trouble against Kansas City's sorry defense.
It's the same story as Peyton Manning, Caldwell rested Clark in the 2nd half and he came up with 57 yds and no scores.
See Peyton Manning above.
No field goals, but I guess the five extra points were good. No, not in my book!
Gostkowski has made just four field goals in his lat five games. It is not a lack of accuracy, just no available opportunities. With the Patriots already in the playoffs, look for New England to rest their starters this week, which will create very little chances for Gostkowski to score.
The Vikings have been a stellar defense all season, but they couldn't fend off the Bears on Monday night as they allowed 36 points while getting 2 sacks and 1 INT.
Thanks to two straight losses, the Vikings are still fighting for a first round bye. Minnesota returns home for the season finale to host the struggling Giants. The Vikings allow less than 100 rush yds per game, but they are vulnerable through the air. I have a feeling Minnesota will stop Eli Manning.
Jay Cutler's favorite receiver this week hauled in 7 catches for a career-high 150 yds and a TD.
QB Jay Cutler favors somebody different each week, so it is unrealistic to expect anywhere near a repeat performance. Then again, against Detroit, anything is possible.
The backup running back scored 3 TD to go with 39 total yds.
This was in garbage time with the Packers up big. This could happen again since Green Bay has already secured a playoff spot and may want to rest key players.
The Cadillac looked good for once and he ran for 129 yds and a score. It was his first 100-yd game since Week 11 of 2006.
If you expect this to happen again, then you probably aren't playing for a championship this weekend.
Heap only had two receptions for 37 yds, but both receptions went for touchdowns.
The Ravens are in the hunt for the playoffs, so they will be playing hard against Oakland. Heap has scored in two straight games (4 total), so he is clearly getting redzone looks.
Foster was the highlight of the Houston backfield this week, rushing for 97 yds and a score.
He outcarried everyone else, and Houston is still in the playoff hunt. Houston will be playing all of their starters against a New England team that should be resting starters since they have clinched the AFC East.

Monkey Bread (From Scratch)
How was your Thanksgiving?!
I hope everyone is recovering nicely. I had a great night, spent with family and friends. There was tons (and tons) of food, a pie buffet, and lots of laughter!
Yesterday I posted a photo which has prompted several emails for a recipe. So even though you've all probably had your fill of sugary things the past few days, today I have this glorious recipe for homemade monkey bread.
If you've never had monkey bread, you should try it. Because it's everything you love about cinnamon rolls in a pull-apart loaf of goodness. They somehow seem lighter than a roll, and it's inexplicably fun to eat each little puff of caramelized sugar and butter.
What prompted this bread's creation was that amidst my pie bake-a-thon, I was asked last-minute to bake some monkey bread for a Thanksgiving party. But perusing the internet for recipes proved a bit disheartening. I spent 20 minutes only finding recipes which called for pre-made biscuit dough that comes in a can. Umm, no thanks.
I came across a homemade one from Mel's Kitchen Café, but then remembered I'd made it a while back and was disappointed. It tasted good, but the bread was a bit tough, and the caramelized bits got too caramelized. Perhaps I had overbaked it, though I've read elsewhere that the coating on a monkey bread can get pretty brittle and tough by the end of baking, resulting in an almost tooth-breaking coating. No thanks again.
I came across another from Baking Bites, but wanted to keep the dough egg-free in hopes of creating a lighter and fluffier final product.
The monkey bread of my dreams is light as a pillow with an airy crumb. Not sickeningly sweet, and not with glasslike shards of "caramel" around the edges.
I winged the recipe as I went along, and ended up with a mish mash of the two recipes above, then veered completely off course for the coating and used mostly white sugar and baked in smaller pans.
And a star was born. This was THE BEST monkey bread I have ever baked or eaten.
The loaves were packaged and sent off to the party. They all disappeared PRIOR TO DINNER, which I found both complimentary and somewhat frightening. Apparently they didn't ruin appetites, but instead resulted in several heartwarming phone calls. And I've been asked to bake them again for this week's Poker Night.
I did save myself one loaf to eat late last night and OHMYGOODNESS it was delicious. It needed no reheating, though I've included more tips about that–as well as the best way to store the monkey breads, making in a stand mixer, or baking in advance–below the recipe.
So, I promise to post some nice and healthy recipes in days to come, but feel free to bookmark and give this monkey bread a try the next time you want to put a smile on someone's face. This bread had adults and children alike diving in for one more sugary puff!
So, let's get baking!
First, mix the yeast, warm water, and a pinch of sugar in a large bowl. Let sit until foamy and bubbling, 5 minutes:
Add the warm milk, melted butter, sugar, salt, vanilla, and 1 cup of flour to the yeast mixture and stir, stir, stir until combined:
Add flour 1/2 cup at a time until your dough comes together. For me, I added 2 1/4 more cups, resulting in about 3 1/4 cups flour total. You want your dough to pull away from the sides of the bowl. It may take some elbow grease:
Now, dump your dough onto a work surface sprinkled with flour:
And start kneading! Don't be intimidated by kneading please. It's just smooshing dough around on a table top. If you keep your hands and work surface well floured, it's a pretty cathartic process. I kneaded for about 8 minutes, before my dainty little arms got tired:
Once your dough is relatively smooth, form it into a ball and stick it into a bowl. Cover tightly with plastic wrap and let rise for 1 hour:
After an hour, your dough should have doubled in size:
Dump it back out onto your floured work surface and pat it into an 8″ square:
Now, cut it into 8 strips (a bench scraper makes this very quick and easy):
And then again into 8 strips going the other way (totaling 64 pieces). Please don't worry If they are slightly uneven:
Now it's time to roll! This would be a great task for kids to help with.
One at a time, take each piece of dough and roll into a ball, then plop a few at a time into the melted butter:
Let the excess butter drip off, then roll in your cinnamon/sugar mixture:
As you coat them, lay them into your prepared pan:
Continue until all your loaves are filled, then divide any remaining butter and sugar/cinnamon mixture between them, sprinkling on top:
Cover with plastic and go do something for 30 minutes:
Come back to find your monkey bread climbing out of the pan:
Remove plastic and bake!
I got lucky and guessed the right amount of baking time on the first try. Hint, hint–it will smell like heaven in the house:
Let them sit in the pan for a couple minutes, then flip them out onto a wire rack:
OH MY! They are glorious things. Let's take a closer look, shall we?
I love you, monkey bread.
The crumb on these beauties is almost like a freshly fried donut hole, minus the grease. They are fluffy like King's Hawaiian rolls. But they taste like butter and cinnamon and vanilla goodness. These are more than worth the effort. They will hit the sweet spot, I promise.
Now, for f*ck's sake, drizzle them with some icing:
MONKEY BREAD – Makes 6 mini loaves or one 10″ Bundt pan
(recipe inspired by this and this)
Note: Directions for a stand mixer included in Italics. Make-ahead or bake-ahead instructions are included below the recipe, as well as packaging ideas for gifting.
For the dough:
1/3 cup warm water
- 1 (.25 oz.) package active-dry yeast (about 2 1/4 teaspoons)
- 3 1/2 tablespoons white sugar
- 3 1/4 cups flour, divided, plus more for work surface
- 1 1/4 teaspoons salt
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons butter, melted
- 1 cup whole milk, warmed
For the coating:
- 1 stick (1/2 cup) unsalted butter, melted
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar
- 1 cup white sugar
- 2 1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
For the icing:
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- water
1. Make your dough: In a large bowl, dissolve the yeast and a pinch of the sugar in the warm water. Let sit until foamy, 5 minutes (if your yeast doesn't foam up, it's "dead." Discard and try again with a new packet). Add the remaining sugar, 1 cup of the flour, the salt, vanilla, melted butter, and warm milk. Stir until all is combined.
If using stand mixer, proof yeast, pinch of sugar, and water in the bowl of your mixer until foamy. Add remaining sugar, 1 cup flour, salt, vanilla, butter, and milk and combine with paddle attachment over medium speed.
2. Begin adding remaining flour, 1/2 cup at a time, and stir vigorously to incorporate. Add the last 1/4 cup; your dough should be somewhat shaggy and pulled away from the bowl (IF your dough hasn't come together, add another 1/4 cup flour until it does. If it comes together earlier, do not add the remaining flour).
Stand mixer directions: add remaining flour 1/2 cup at a time until dough pulls away from sides of bowl. Switch to dough hook attachment.
3. Dump your dough out onto a floured work surface and knead for 5-10 minutes, adding flour as necessary to prevent sticking. Dough should be tacky but not sticky. Continue kneading until smooth.
Stand mixer directions: Knead with dough hook about 5 minutes on medium speed until dough is smooth and elastic.
4. Put dough in a large bowl and coat lightly with spray oil (I like to use Baking Pam). Cover tightly with plastic wrap, and leave to rise in a warm place until doubled, about 1 hour.
5. Meanwhile, prepare your loaf pan/s by spraying with Pam or greasing with softened butter. Prepare your "rolling station" with the melted 1/2 cup butter in one bowl, and then mix the brown sugar, sugar, and cinnamon and place on a rimmed plate.
6. Once dough is doubled, remove plastic and dump dough onto a lightly floured work surface. Pat into a rough 8″ square. Cut into 64 equal pieces (8 cuts horizontally, 8 cuts vertically) using a bench scraper or a knife.
7. One piece at a time, roll dough into balls between your hands. Coat in the melted butter and–letting excess butter drip off–roll in the cinnamon/sugar mixture. Place about 10 balls in each loaf pan. Repeat with all 64 balls. Drizzle with any remaining butter and sprinkle with any remaining sugar.
8. Cover pan with plastic wrap and set aside to rise for 30 minutes. Preheat your oven to 350 F.
9. After 30 minutes, dough balls should be very puffy! Bake in preheated oven for 15 minutes, rotating your pan halfway through. The monkey bread should be very puffy and golden, springing back when pressed, and the coating should have bubbled out around the sides of the bread. If you are unsure whether it's done or not, pull off one piece of the bread to see if it's set in the middle. (Then, eat it quietly or stuff it back into the pan.)
Let cool in pan for a few minutes, then turn out onto wire racks to cool slightly.
10. To make the glaze, place powdered sugar into a bowl and sprinkle with water several drops at a time and whisk vigorously until you have a thick icing. Drizzle over monkey bread.
There are 2 options. If you'd like to prepare your monkey bread in advance, you can either prepare your dough and refrigerate it overnight to rise slowly in the refrigerator, or bake it off and store it overnight to eat the next day.
1) To prep your dough ahead and refrigerate it raw: Proceed with recipe through step 7, then cover your pan tightly with plastic wrap and immediately place in the refrigerator for its second rise. The refrigerator will slow down the rise, and you can keep it there overnight. In the morning, remove plastic and pull the dough out as your oven heats up. Bake as directed.
2) To prep your monkey bread completely, follow recipe as written, making sure to pull monkey breads from oven without overbaking. Let them cool COMPLETELY on a wire rack, then place in a container and wrap tightly with plastic wrap. My breads were still completely moist, tender, and soft by the next day and required no reheating to restore fresh-from-the-oven texture.
Let cool completely, then transfer to disposable foil mini loaf pans.
Place entire loaf inside a cellophane or plastic candy bag.
Tie with festive string and add a label if desired.
***I got my plastic candy bags at Michaels, the raffia string at Cost Plus World Market, and made the labels from blank gift cards from a dollar store. The loaf pans are from my local grocery store.
I included ingredient information since the breads were going to a party full of children, in the event of any food allergies. I also included reheating instructions as I saw fit, however the feedback I received was that the bread needed no reheating and disappeared within minutes of me dropping it off.
I ate mine almost 24 hours after baking and have to agree: they were still VERY soft and tasted totally fresh, having been sealed in airtight plastic.***

Crowell was dismissed from the team Friday, hours after he was arrested near campus.
Georgia coach Mark Richt informed the media of Crowell's dismissal via a statement:
""We have a dedicated and committed group of men who are working hard to prepare for the coming season," Richt said. "Our total focus will be directed toward the team and this effort."
Crowell, who was arrested on charges of carrying a concealed weapon (a misdemeanor), possessing a weapon in a school zone (a felony) and carrying an altered ID mark (a felony), was considered by most to be the starting running back for the Bulldogs heading into the 2012 season.
Crowell was released on bond Friday afternoon. It was not immediately known whether he has an attorney.
"Things happen," Crowell told Dawg Post upon his release. "I don't really have a comment right now."

The police report written by arresting officer Kathryn Thornton noted that she had been working a road block on East Campus Road and Green Street near the Ramsey Center on campus.
The report says that Crowell had four other teammates in the car with him: True freshman Blake Tibbs, Josh Harvey-Clemons, Sheldon Dawson and sophomore Quintavious Harrow.
After approaching the road block the officer reported that Crowell didn't have his seatbelt on, and that Thornton said she smelled marijuana from the car.
Crowell said he'd been at the club "Aftermath" and that was likely where the smell was coming from. Thornton asked if marijuana had been smoked in the car. Crowell said no, but that the smell was likely from the club.
Crowell then agreed to a search of his person.
"I didn't locate any contraband on his person," Thornton said in the report.
Other officers asked why Crowell was so nervous. Officers searched Harrow, Clemons, Dawson and Tibbs, but none had contraband on them, the report said.
Thornton checked under the driver's seat, and located a Luger 9mm pistol at which time she placed Crowell, who had claimed the car as his, under arrest, the report said.
Police said the altered ID mark charge resulted from a tampered serial number on the weapon.
Crowell said other people drive his car and that he does not have a handgun permit. The officer also indicated in her report that Crowell does not have a criminal history.
Georgia law indicates that persons convicted of statues 16-11-127.1 and 16-9-70. face a minimum of three years imprisonment.
Crowell's dismissal is another offseason hit for the Bulldogs. As first reported by Dawg Post earlier this year, starting linebacker Alec Ogletree and All-American safety Bacarri Rambo are both facing suspensions for at least the first two games, and possibly the first four games, of the season. Brandon Smith, who will likely start at cornerback and has played some running back, will miss at least one game after being arrested for possession of marijuana in Alabama.
|Read the full text of the Georgia state law statutes cited in the Isaiah Crowell arrest.
The Bulldogs have been seen as the favorites to win the SEC East by most publications, but Crowell's departure could change that.
The former five-star high school recruit was considered a huge get for the Bulldogs over Alabama on Signing Day 2011. His talent was evident when he performed well in games against Auburn, Tennessee, Ole Miss and South Carolina.
But Crowell was undependable as he was suspended for the first quarter of the Bulldogs' win over Vanderbilt and the entire game against New Mexico State. He also struggled with injuries after suffering a high ankle sprain in the Kentucky game. He didn't play against Georgia Tech the following week, and was used sparingly against LSU in the SEC Championship Game. He then missed the second half of the Outback Bowl after re-injuring his ankle.
The Bulldogs will now turn to a slew of mostly inexperienced running backs to fill the void for Crowell. Sophomore Ken Malcome and newcomer Keith Marshall are expected to compete for the starting spot this fall if Crowell is dismissed from the team.
He finished his freshman season with 850 yards and five touchdowns, but was riddled with injuries and sat out some time due to suspensions.

you can compare between modified date and published date of a wordpress post.
get_the_date displays published date
get_the_modified_date displays modified date
NEW : if modified date = published date
UPDATED : if modified date != published date
there are many ways to achieve this. it depends on your html/css coding knowledge/experiences. use your imagination…
for example: if you want the link text can be changed easily, you can create a single background image for this, and the menu text positioning can be achieved using CSS absolute positioning.
HTML code:

 Home Coming Evets Coaching

CSS code:
.gameboard { background: url(YOURSINGLEIMAGEURL) no-repeat top left; width: 300px; height: 400px; position: relative; } .gameboard a { color: white; text-decoration: none; width: 120px; text-align: center; position: absolute; } .gameboard a:hover { color: yellow; } .gameboard a.menu-home { top: 20px; left: 140px; } .gameboard a.menu-events { top: 150px; left: 20px; }
Note: this is only an example.
If you want to hardcode your text to the image. yes, you have to make a little piece for every menu, both for normal & hover link…
Please don't call it WPMU again. Wordpress Multisite is better word.

In WP 3 .2, this link is hidden, you can click "Howdy, admin" at top right to see it…
Hi Christina,
That website use an old code style with table. Yes, it can work the same way in Wordpress. But if you want, you can re-code it with a better table-less code.

CD Projekt RED - Interview, Next-Gen Releases?
by Dhruin, 2012-02-18 00:05:50
Eurogamer has an interview with CDPR's Adam Badowski discussing the two known AAA games they have in development for 2014/15 releases. Adam says both titles will be multi-platform and suggests this will be a next-gen console release:
"We are definitely starting for new consoles," managing director Adam Badowski told us, when asked whether the pair of known-about "AAA+" games will be for this generation or the next.
"The market is ready for something new," heralded head of marketing Michal Platkow-Gilewski, "for something faster, more powerful."
Badowski added: "I can tell you we are and we were focusing on powerful gaming rigs. We're going to do something amazing, so we need extra processors.

Snowboarding Forum - Snowboard Enthusiast Forums (http://www.snowboardingforum.com/forum.php)
- Snowboarding General Chat (http://www.snowboardingforum.com/snowboarding-general-chat/)
- - The Good Ride website (http://www.snowboardingforum.com/snowboarding-general-chat/52490-good-ride-website.html)
The Good Ride website
Still fairly new to the forum, I've read several posts critical of the above site. Just curious why.
I'm not here to defend the site, but I have found it is a good starting point for getting a non-brand affiliated opinion on snowboard gear. I know that they don't necessarily ride/use every item they review, but they do indicate which ones they have ridden/used.
Also, as with any snowboard review site, I've found that one has to understand any possible biases in the reviewer's comments and/or how their riding style affects their reviews. Caveat emptor!
Finally, since I'm asking about snowboarding/gear review websites, are there any others of which I should be aware?
Angry Snowboarder (Home to BA of course.)
Geeks of Shred
Snowboard Review
Any others worth a look?
I only really go by what I read on Angry Snowboarder, or on what some of the more experienced boarders on here say.
Just find it to be more trustworthy, sound, and unbiased advice I supposed.
David z and leo i believe are the guys on agnarchy. they are both active on here.
board insiders does video reviews but they come out kind of late. For example they don't review this years gear until mid season.
The thing about gear is that, its relative to the hill or region. Sure there are the fan clubs...burton in east, ns and venture in colorado, lib/gnu in pnw, and prior in bc....and the reasons are partly based in fact that the team/proto testing is generally done in those areas...therefore a board/gear made to handle those conditions/terrain. In a general forum, like here, some folks forget that the local hill is a huge influence of their riding style, preferences and what they tote as the best. Perhaps at the beginner and intermediate level it doesn't matter so much but at the expert level the little design things for the conditions/terrain just add up. So just take into account their region and riding level and style and perhaps check in with a local core shop and their seasoned riders to see what they ride or recommend.
i use thegoodride all the time to compare different gear.
now that people are bringing this up i am noticing some errors on their site...
the good ride rates 390 bosses as a 2 out of 5 for flex.
they then rate the Mob Bosses as a 3 out of 5 for flex.
People on this forum have said that the Mobs are flexier and more of a jib binding than the 390s.
is this true?
For myself, I ride the Ice Coast primarily. Powder is something only rumoured out here most of the time. For me, edge hold is extremely important, and I have found that Mervin's magnetraction works best. Therefore, if I reviewed a board, I'm sure I would be critical of ANY deficiency in edge hold. Someone who rides mostly powder might put far less emphasis on that feature and rate the same board more positively than me.
I'd be curious how some of the members on this forum who do review gear regularly feel about this?
Snowolf, BA perhaps?

Shayboarder is awful. She'll like anything from a company that hooks her up. And I've seen her ride. She can't do anything to actually test a board.
Agnarchy has good dudes over there.
Snowboard Review... after some poking around I only found a few things I didn't like. Seems alright.
Geek doesn't have enough on there and I've yet to see anything to suggest they aren't just licking the hand feeding them.
Angry. I work for him. You trust him, he trusts me.
I take those things into consideration. Despite what people seem to think, we do get gnar ice in CO. Especially at Keystone. There are sides of that mountain that sit in the sun most of the day, then around 1:30 shade hits. That'll easily drop the temp 20* in half an hour. It gets bulletproof.
On top of that, a good tester can tell what the edgehold is gonna be like on standard groomers here. If you're the type that can feel the minute changes in snowboards you can translate it's reactions in certain conditions to others.
Everyone else is crap, we are the best!
Thanks for that impartial advice their Nivek:icon_scratch:.
On the whole I am inclined to agree with him though, the good ride seems to make some strange conclusions about boards it would appear they haven't ridden.
I personally try to find all the info I can get on various sites and take them all with a pinch of salt. If you see several people on different sites making similar observations about the same board that gives you something to go by.
Personal preference has to play a huge part, nothing wrong with that its human nature.
Conditions will play a big role as well.
As far as I know there are very few independent gear review sites here in Japan (in Japanese). Maybe a gap in the market.

Another review site, mostly geared towards bigger riders but still gives a good additional point of view for smaller riders as well.

Congrats Nitin. I am waiting for my day too.
Hi friends,
I am about to start a work on an APP GUI (tyro here) including launcher icon. But curious to know how much should I be charging and how should the charges be applied (whole project or screenwise)?
Thank you in advance for your time. KK
So nice of Demorfoza to answer all concerns patiently! Kudos for helping mind!
Forget the common response on rejection. If once in a while GR doesn't challenge you with your own file then what fun?
I am no good in icons, but here are my thoughts. I tried searching car icon images and found that all are designed to a particular perspective. Either flat & side view or flat & front view. If perspective is to be given, stick to that style. When i looked at your file, i felt the first cars in row 1 and 2 are standing apart from the crowd. Some are big, some are small.
Try making it uniform. Hope I din't kill you further! ha ha. Happy CAR-ing.
Even for my logo too. It is almost a week since i uploaded still in Que. I would also like to know if this is only to the logo section. I see the number of logos approved per day is also come down to two or four.
When can the speed of 'within two days approval' spring back into action?
Welcome and good luck.
pxartwork said
I couldnt care less about you, because it's not about you, it's about the principle. Obviously this thread wasn't created about you, so obviously there are more people out there that get "items that look simmilar to other items" approved while some people get rejected for the same reason.
+++++1 PRINCIPLE! This forum did not start for a 'lots of time for fight' dear shoe friend. Yours was just a case, an example. Just hurts to see lots of similar items approved and items getting rejected with 'similar look' feedback where those are actually no where near similar!
Ciaos and have fun designing… Good artwork comes from happy mind. Graphic Design Rocks!!!
Btn, Chew your pop corn well. ha ha…3d, is it?
[Links removed. Please don't call out items on the forum. Thanks!]
O! I din't know that was an offence!
Bye all.
Authors, no offence please. Curious on how this happened when there are a lot of cribbing about rejection with "similar items" feedbacks.
[Links removed. Please don't call out items on the forum. Thanks!]
Hi, To begin with, even i am not a huge reviewer fan. But coming to your fret, there are no files similar to yours. Yes i did go through all clouds. Din't you find 'cloud heart' similar? he he… Did you also see the number of sales with the idea"cloud circuit"? Clouds with upload or file transfer or some other cloud concept is selling much better. Leave this behind and move forward. Keep this work in your archive and some other day you will be struck with a greater idea on how to improve (coming to that, the outer most cloud is good and inner one is loosing the punch). Tis works for me.
You have a tough reviewer, in the long run, you will have a good portfolio (my soul-mate's line when i go down with file rejection ). Good luck and let your portfolio rock. Ciao

text: Mark Gatiss: Next Sherlock is very special and tremendously exciting - but may not be at Christmas The Sherlock special is going to live up to its name and "would fit" as a Christmas episode - but "there's no guarantee" it will be, says the show's co-creator ARTICLE CONTINUES BELOW By Paul Jones Tuesday 18 November 2014 at 4:05PM Back in June, Sherlock star Martin Freeman let slip that the next time he and Benedict Cumberbatch would unite to film the detective drama it would be for a Christmas special. But when the official announcement came that filming on a one-off episode – designed to bridge the gap between series three and four – was to begin in January, it was described simply as "a Special", with no reference to festivities or seasonal scheduling. Now, Sherlock co-creator Mark Gatiss has cemented the ambiguity (if that makes any sense), saying that, while pre-production on the episode has already begun – and while the story would work in a Yuletide slot – it's still not clear whether it will be the 2015 Christmas gift fans are wishing for. "It will be finished, of course, by the end of spring," Gatiss tells me, "[but] when they show it is entirely down to the schedulers. It would fit as a Christmas special but there's no guarantee of that – they used to show the Mike Yarwood [Christmas] Show in the summertime." The good news, according to Gatiss,is that "it's a very special special, and we're all tremendously excited about it". And if that wasn't quite the level of detail you were hoping for, he's quick to point out that, given the now traditional gathering of fans at Sherlock filming locations, more information is likely to become available for those who want it in the not-too-distant future. "It's pretty close to shooting now," says Gatiss, who will return as Sherlock's brother, Whitehall grandee Mycroft. "It won't be long before people see enough to get their teeth into..." But what exactly can they expect? Well, one way or another the episode will address that series three cliffhanger – the apparent return from the dead of Andrew Scott's supervillain Moriarty. Is he really still alive after apparently shooting himself through the back of the head? Or was the glorified gif that appeared on screens across the country during the closing moments just a trick being played from beyond the grave? The Sherlock special should answer those questions – but will it be Christmassy? If, as usual, Gatiss and Moffat borrow elements from Doyle's original Sherlock Holmes stories, and if they want to create a seasonal vibe, there's one in particular they'll be revisiting. The Adventure of the Blue Carbuncle is a fun and atmospheric tale of a stolen gemstone and a Christmas goose –and one that Gatiss once told me he adores and would love to adapt. When I asked him about it this time around he was staying predictably tight-lipped but if he and Moffat do end up delivering a proper seasonal special, shown in December, then I like to think it's a helping of Christmas goose those fans will be sinking their teeth into...

The past week has been full of new sights, smells and sounds.
The snow began falling on Wednesday early morning and kept falling for several days. I was a little nervous about it at first but soon decided that snow is FUN!
I love to bury my head in it to smell the grass underneath and to jump through the drifts like a bunny...it's cold!!
Mom dug a path all of the way around the house and through the yard for me to explore..I call it my racetrack and I can RUN fast on it!
Then the freezing rain fell and made a layer of ice on top of the snow. I fell through when I tried to walk on it so I'm sticking to the paths for now.
More snow is supposed to fall tonight..I can't wait!
Mom and I have been busy this month. We are now volunteers for Havanese Rescue Inc. http://www.havaneserescue.com/
and have begun fostering for Angel Paws rescue which is near Seattle.
I've helped two doggie foster brothers in finding their forever homes in the past month AND I got neutered! I'm officially a big boy now =)
Mom says she'll be happy when my hormone levels drop so that I quit humping everything..
I say good luck with that one! BOL
Mom said that we have a new dogpark in our area. The Grand opening was today and Mom went to check it out...I can't go yet cuz' the Vet say's "not till after your next set of shots" but I'm still looking forward to playing there and meeting LOTS of friends.
Mom told me ALL about it. There are two seperate areas...one for small dogs like me and another for the big doggies and both areas are HUGE and have two gates that you have to walk through to get into them. They also have lots of grass and picnic tables and benches to play on. I can't wait until next month when I get to see it for myself!!
I'll RUN like the WIND!!!!

The machine gun rounds sounded like popcorn as they punched holes in the Osprey's fuselage. Sgt. Shane Moreland, perched at the aircraft's tail gun, began raining lead on enemy positions as he and his aircrew made the final approach to insert reconnaissance Marines in a predawn raid in southern Afghanistan on the morning of June 27, 2012.
Marines with Alpha Company, 2nd Reconnaissance Battalion, and accompanying Afghan National Army soldiers were interdicting drug movements and seizing weapons caches. It was the job of two Osprey crews with Marine Medium Tiltrotor Squandron 365 to insert them in two waves. The first wave had gone without incident. Both aircraft touched down, put Marines and ANA in the dirt and left to pick up reinforcements.
But by the time they returned with supporting forces, the enemy had mustered and raked the landing zone with medium machine gun and rocket-propelled grenade fire as the two aircraft made their final approach. By the end of the mission, both aircraft would be badly damaged, causing one crew to nearly ditch in the desert. The mission, however, was a success and the raid force would take only one casualty — an Afghan soldier shot in the leg.
For their actions that day seven aircrew members were recognized June 26 aboard Marine Corps Air Station New River, N.C. Among them were two Marines who became the first MV-22 Osprey pilots to receive the Distinguished Flying Cross — the fourth highest award aircrew members can receive after the Silver Star, Navy Cross and the Medal of Honor.
Going in hot
As the Ospreys entered the LZ for the second time, they were met with an overwhelming volume of enemy fire. The first Osprey, Dash-1, flown by co-pilot Capt. David Austin, didn't hear the call to wave off, Moreland said. Armed escorts began suppressing enemy positions, and Moreland's Osprey, Dash-2, piloted by Capt. David Haake, veered away and went into a holding pattern.
Despite being in a kill zone, the crew of Dash-1, including pilot Maj. Michael Hutchings, aerial observer Sgt. John Leist and crew chief Sgt. Matthew Belleci, managed to get their passengers out of the aircraft with no injuries.
Moreland, Austin, Leist and Belleci would earn the Air Medal for their actions that day, and Haake and Hutchings would become the first of their field to receive the Distinguished Flying Cross.
"While inserting an element of the force, Captain Austin's aircraft encountered enemy resistance from rocket-propelled grenades and medium machine gun fire, resulting in extensive damage to critical flight control systems," Austin's award citation reads. "Despite continual engagement with enemy forces during departure from the landing zone, Captain Austin skillfully flew the severely damaged aircraft with crew safely back to Camp Bastion."
Even with severe damage to his aircraft, he later returned to the heavily defended area to withdraw the raid force, "thereby enabling the successful completion of their mission."
Hutchings, who also helped pilot Dash-1, directed suppressive fire, landed and unloaded the remaining portion of the raid force during the second wave of the raid.
"Major Hutchings' heroic actions in the face of danger saved the lives of his crew and allowed for the insertion and extraction of the reconnaissance raid force to and from a highly contested objective area," according to the citation.
Leist, as the aerial observer aboard Dash-1 , "calmly guided his aircraft to the landing zone which allowed the raid force to disembark the aircraft and immediately engage the enemy," according to his citation. Belleci "delivered suppressive machine gun fire to enemy forces on the approach."
Moreland and Dash-2 didn't touch down with the first group, however. After veering away from the landing zone, Moreland's aircraft held for about 20 to 30 minutes, he said. The armed escorts told the pilot, Haake, that the LZ was still hot, but if they came in from a different heading they would lay down supporting fire.
"The pilot made sure we were all kosher with going in while fires were in the zone," Moreland told Marine Corps Times.
They flew in and, on approach, rounds started snapping by.
"I began shooting from about 150 feet in the air, so I could hear machine guns going off before I saw them. It sounds like popcorn when it goes through carbon fiber. Then I started seeing them and the muzzle flashes," he said.
It was still dark and they were operating with night vision goggles, giving them some cover but also adding to the chaos.
In all, the aircraft would take 12 rounds, damaging flight controls, causing a fuel line puncture and badly injuring an Afghan soldier.
"At that point, I didn't even really relay all the information. ... I've shot with Capt. Haake, so he had an understanding that if I was shooting, it was probably for a good reason," Moreland said.
They landed, unloaded their passengers except for the casualty and left the landing zone. As soon as they were clear, Moreland began administering aid to the Afghan. Unable to find a tourniquet, he tore the sleeve off his uniform and improvised one to stem the bleeding.
Limping home
Losing fuel fast, and unable to switch into airplane mode, the Osprey was on the verge of failing.
"We had damage to some of our flight controls. They hit a fuel line directly. That's why we were were losing so much fuel," he said. "Once we lifted, we decided what FOB we were going to go to because we knew we couldn't make it back to Camp Bastion. We kept losing all this fuel, and we didn't think we had enough to make it to the FOB we were actually trying to get to. So Capt. Haake up front called the escorts and told them to attach to us, because we thought we were going to put it down in the desert."
Low fuel wasn't the only concern.
"We weren't able to take it down to airplane mode," he said. "Anytime we tried to do that, it pulled the airplane down and to the right. The gear boxes were getting hot. The way we mitigate that is by going down to airplane mode. So along with all the other faults that we had, our transmissions were getting hot enough that they weren't going to operate much longer," Moreland said.
It wasn't until settling safely at Forward Operating Base Edinburgh that Moreland surveyed the damage and was taken aback.
"I looked at the damage and realized how close it had been for all of us," he said. "I had four seats that took bullet holes through them. The ANA solder was shot through the leg because he didn't have a pack on. Other Marines sit forward on the edge of the seat because of their packs. There were holes around the tail where I was, too."
Moreland's citation lauds his actions throughout the mission.
"Displaying courage, poise and superb situational awareness in spite of extreme adversity, he skillfully assessed aircraft damage, stabilized the casualty and assisted with a landing in the security of Forward Operation Base Edinburgh," his citation reads.
Haake is credited with getting Dash-2 safely to the ground.
"Captain Haake departed the landing zone and maneuvered his aircraft, despite the severe control systems issues and a massive fuel leak, to a safe landing," according to his citation.
Capt. Joel Vandenende, a pilot on Dash-2, received an Air Medal. His "bold and heroic actions in the face of danger saved the lives of Marines and a wounded Afghan soldier," according to his citation.

Florida lawmaker: Why not require everyone purchasing ammo to take anger management courses?
posted at 3:03 pm on March 6, 2013 by Erika Johnsen
Yes, why don't we use up even more of the state's resources to force law-abiding citizens wishing to purchase ammunition to take preemptive anger-management courses? The brilliance is overwhelming me.
A Florida legislator wants anyone trying to buy ammunition to complete an anger management program first, in what critics say is the latest example of local lawmakers reaching for constitutionally-dubious solutions to the problem of gun violence.
The bill filed Saturday by state Sen. Audrey Gibson, D-Jacksonville, would require a three-day waiting period for the sale of any firearm and the sale of ammunition to anyone who has not completed anger management courses. The proposal would require ammo buyers to take the anger management courses every 10 years.
"This is not about guns," Gibson said. "This is about ammunition and not only for the safety of the general community, but also for the safety of law enforcement."

Mr. DeFAZIO. Mr. Chair, today, I am voting in favor of H.R. 6213. First and foremost, the American taxpayer should not take a backseat to venture capitalists. This bill ensures that any loan default falls first on the company's investors and remaining assets instead of on the taxpayer.
The Department of Energy's loan guarantee program needs better oversight to protect taxpayers from the financial risks of emerging technologies in a competitive and volatile energy market.
I am also concerned that the loan guarantee program, which was created under the Bush administration in 2005, heavily favors thermal industries--including coal. This money would be better spent on innovative, cutting-edge technologies that will reduce our reliance on fossil fuels, cut greenhouse gases responsible for global warming, and make the United States more energy independent.
Limited federal dollars should go to creating high-wage, high-tech jobs that can't be exported--they should not be used to subsidize the largest energy companies that have benefited from billions of dollars in taxpayer subsidies and decades of federal support.
That's why I am also voting for Representative Waxman's amendment. H.R. 6213 allows DOE to use its existing authority to award $34 billion in loan guarantees to projects on the Republican-deemed ``winners' list.'' This is a list of 50 or so applications that were submitted to DOE prior to the end of 2011. More than three-quarters of the applications are from the nuclear and coal industries.
By voting in favor of Representative Waxman's amendment, I support allowing DOE to consider new applications until the remaining loan guarantee dollars are exhausted. This will create a level playing field for all technologies including renewables like wind, solar, and biomass.

Nutritional Facts
Table Sauce for Grownups
We call Voodoo Sauce a table sauce for grownups because we believe that it deserves to have a place next to salt and pepper at every meal. Everything that tastes better with salt and pepper will truly benefit from the sweet and spicy kick of our Voodoo Sauce.

Harris Teeter Video: Voodoo Sauce
Lucky 32 Southern Kitchen shows lots of uses for our Voodoo Sauce. See the video by Harris Teeter, July 2014
Spicing Shrimp
Whether as a dip for boiled or fried shrimp or as a glaze for grilled shrimp, the crustaceans' succulent brininess is complemented and heightened by the unique blend of spices in Voodoo Sauce.
Dipping Veggies
Getting bored with traditional dips for your crudite? The sweet and spicy balance of Voodoo Sauce is just what you need for dipping broccoli, celery, carrots and cucmbers.
Saucing Chicken
It doesn't matter if you're grilling, frying, roasting or baking chicken; you can finish the dish with a light coating of Voodoo Sauce, or serve the sauce tableside so your guests can make their plate as saucy as they like.
Glazing Fish
Voodoo Sauce may be a tad bit agressive for mild fish like flounder or grouper; but more assertively flavored fish like mahimahi, swordfish, mackerel, salmon or tuna will benefit from the sweet & spicy tang of our Voodoo Sauce. Just drizzle some sauce over the fish after cooking.

Bloody Lucky
Our great friend, Mark Weddle, who was recently published in the 75th anniversary edition of the "Mr. Boston Bartenders Guide", regarded as the authority on cocktail recipes and bartending knowledge, has developed an awesome Bloody Lucky recipe using the Lucky 32 Southern Kitchen Voodoo Sauce. Enjoy!
The Recipe is;
1.25 oz Southern Comfort
.25 oz fresh lemon juice
1 oz Voodoo Sauce
3-4 oz Bloody Mary mix
Combine all ingredients with ice in a mixing tin and shake once or twice. Pour into a Mason Jar or collins glass and garnish with Allan Benton's Country Ham from Madisonville, TN and pickled okra.
Flavoring Vinaigrettes
For a grown-up take on French Dressing, try this: Mix together 1/4 cup apple cider vinegar, 1 Tbsp dijon and 1/4 cup voodoo, whisk in 3/4 c canola oil. Store in a mason jar in your refrigerator and you can shake vigorously to re-emulsify before using.
Leveraging Leftovers
Whether eating cold fried chicken or leftover pizza, sometimes a little lift is needed for yesterday's meal to retain its former glory. With a dab of Voodoo Sauce, leftovers will taste like a new dish.
Soaking Steaks
Are you getting tired of steak sauce for your steaks? Try Voodoo Sauce as a table condiment for your favorite steaks next time you grill out. See recipe for Sergeant Lee's Marinated Grilled Sirloin: Cooking in the Sinai with the North Carolina National Guard, written by Staff Sergeant Khan Eakin
Slathering Sliders
Sliders seem to be everywhere these days, so why not try your hand at making some? They can be as easy to create as warming some rolls, splitting them open, layering Voodoo Sauce, slices of country ham and a knob of pimento cheese inside. Serve, sit back and let the accolades come rolling in.
Dunking Nuggets
Use Voodoo Sauce as a room temperature dunking sauce for chicken nuggets, catfish nuggets, or any other nuggets you consider eating.
Punching-up Hors D'Oeuvres
A quick drizzle of Voodoo Sauce over a tray of hors d'oeuvres will punch-up their flavors to unexpected heights, adding just a bit of je ne sais quois.
Basting Ribs
Perhaps the most tantalizing use for Voodoo Sauce, whether they are beef, babyback, or spare, we recommend basting ribs just before serving.
Building Flavors
Seriously, just add Voodoo Sauce to anything that you are cooking or plan to enjoy - from jambalaya, pork chops, roasted Portobello mushrooms, French fries and scrambled eggs to a meatball sandwich - this stuff is the ultimate condiment. Voodoo Sauce is best when added just before serving, as room temperature brings out the wide range of flavors that make Voodoo Sauce so special.
Boosting Burgers
Incorporate Voodoo Sauce into your burgers next time. For every 1 lb of ground beef, mix in 1 egg, 1 Tbsp Lea & Perrins Worcestershire Sauce, 2 Tbsp Voodoo Sauce, 2 tsp kosher salt, 1 t ground black pepper and 1/4 c Panko bread crumbs. Mix well and form into four patties. Grill until desired doneness is achieved. A glaze of 2 Tbsp Voodoo Sauce to finish the burgers will crown these sweet and spicy burgers. Who needs cheese?
Napping Kebabs
Marinated meat on a stick often needs just a little something. When it comes off of the grill, brush on a thin veneer of Voodoo Sauce and it will lend a glistening appearance and an unparalleled taste.
Wonder where the term "napping" comes from? It's a vernacular term from American kitchens derived from the French cooking term, nappe.
Topping Take-out
Equally as fantastic on eggrolls as it is on fried rice, Voodoo Sauce brings its sweet and spicy personality to bear on take-out meals.

South Africa fashion stitch in time for troubled textile
By Mmathabo Tladi
(Reuters) - South Africa's slowly dying textile industry could receive a shot in the arm from a burgeoning fashion market in Africa's largest economy that is looking for home-grown fabric and stitching for its internationally known designers.
The 8th Africa Fashion week in Johannesburg this week brought together the glamour and chaos of countless fashion shows and the hopes of thousands of jobless textile workers living in poverty.
The textile industry for decades had been a mainstay of Africa's biggest economy until about 20 years ago when cheaper imports from Asia began saturating the market, with factories closing down.
"There have been about 160,000 jobs lost in the industry since 1996, the height of employment in the industry. However, the rate of job losses appears to be slowing down," said South African Textile Workers Union (SACTWU) researcher Simon Eppel.
The number of workers brought back to work from an African fashion success is still small but workers are hoping that as African designers gain in global stature, more jobs will return.
Thula Sindi, an established South African designer showing his line at fashion week, uses co-operatives of skilled seamstresses in the factory areas of Johannesburg to produce many pieces in his line.
"The good thing about co-ops is that you are outsourcing to smaller factories in the city. We work according to demand. It's one way to create and save jobs because the advantage is being able to deliver clothes on time," Sindi said.
To encourage more of these tie-ups, a trade expo was launched concurrently with the fashion week to bring designers, retailers and manufacturers together. Continued...

Brazil's culinary influences include not only Amerindian and Portuguese foods, but the cooking styles of immigrants from many other parts of Europe, Africa, the Middle East, and Asia. Each of the country's five geographic regions offer cuisines that are distinctly different yet recognizably Brazilian.
Brazilians are outgoing, fun-loving people. Friends and acquaintances are greeted with kisses, more kisses and big hugs.
While Brazilians eat a light breakfast, the customary complimentary one in hotels for tourists often is an elaborate spread: several varieties of fruits and fruit juices, cheeses, breads, cereals, cakes, eggs and meat. In restaurants, breakfast, or cafe da manha, generally is served from 7 to 10 AM.
The main meal of the day is lunch, or almoco, which is served from about 11:30 AM to 3 PM. Dinner, or jantar, is served from 7 to 11 PM. In metropolitan areas Brazilians dine late. If you arrive much before 10 PM on the weekends, you'll probably be in the company of other tourists!

There has been some discussion amongst turkey hunters about hunting specific birds and the advantages and disadvantages of doing that. My good friend and hunting partner Patrick and I, both seem to have a little bit of a problem with that. Patrick in particular, feels such a bond with the animals that he chooses to give them names so as to differentiate between them during hunting discussion.
We have put in countless hours of scouting and effort into trying to figure these birds out, including 4 am wake-ups on Saturdays and Sundays throughout March and April.
Since May 1st we have pursued these two particular birds relentlessly. They were chest deep in hens, and very difficult to dictate their behavior with calling. Plus, PA ain't the easiest place to be hunting these Easterns let me tell ya....Although, they did not feel the hunting pressure, they seemed to have a 6th sense and tended to avoid our setups just out of range, usually between 60-75 yards.
Although these birds were difficult to get in front of, they had certain habits that we knew we could count on and could exploit.
At around 7:00 on 5/16, after about 10 different setups on "Tommy Tailfeather" in the previous three weeks, he finally corralled all of his hens in the wrong direction, and we were formally introduced. RIP Tommy Tailfeather, you will be missed but never forgotten. Had to take a little bit of a poke at him, he was 40 yards exactly, the furthest shot I ever have and ever will take on a turkey.
10" beard, 1" spurs, 19.5 lbs.
This guy had some colors on him...
The Circle of Life...
Well, Thursdays seem to be not working out so well for our bird friends, because it was the previous thursday when Patrick and I set up together, and after having a couple hens in the decoy for a litte bit, "Tommy Strutsalot" showed up to pay a visit, and got the hammer courtesy of Uncle Patrick. Sorry Thomas, Rest easy brother.
10" beard, 1" spurs, 19 lbs.
As it stands, Larry Longbeard lives on, and he will be quite the specimen by next year when Patrick gets ahold of him!
And lastly, I just thought I'd share that a close friend of mine, who I do a ridiculous amount of waterfowl hunting with, was able to take his first spring bird ever (who will remain nameless)this year on the opener during our annual trip to Sullivan County. He played Lacrosse in Middle School, High School, and College, and although he's been hunting since he was a kid, the amount of time that he has been able to put into spring turkey hunting during that time is probably equivalent to what many of us can put in during a season.
Congrats to Colin on the first of many to come. This bird was well earned, and I'm happy for you.

What's the attraction: My son is in the fourth grade. So as many parents know, that is the grade when the mission project is assigned. So Chase picked Carmel to visit and research for his extra credit video, as well as see the mission he chose to build. He wanted to see the place where Father Junípero Serra was laid to rest. Serra founded eight missions in California. San Carlos Borroméo de Carmel was the second mission founded in the state.
The ride from Lodi was beautiful this time of year. Everything was still green. While arriving at the mission, it was packed as Mass was still going on. It was beautiful to walk on the grounds, listening to the angelic voices of the choir sing.
