Extra Points: Brian Spano 4/4
By Brian Spano PrepsKC Senior Writer
As a high school football reporter, you have to be unbiased when you cover so many teams. That comes into play even when you get the rare opportunity of sitting in on a game of your alma mater. When you've been doing this for such a long time, and that passion for doing it still burns, you develop relationships with coaches and players, but that never impedes on the job we have to do as reporters: Tell the story.
Oh sure, I may find myself rooting a little for all the Kansas City-area teams at the state championship games against the St. Louis teams, but I'd never admit that out loud. My job is to relay the details of the game as a neutral party. Think of me on the same side as the officiating crew, but only without all the rules and regulations.
It's funny how both officials and the media are sometimes looked upon as the so-called bad guys. Officials get a bum rap from fans, coaches and players when they make a bad call or make a call that simply isn't, let's just say, popular with one side of the field.
Sometimes the media and officials might get treated like North Korea, but in reality we're just Switzerland. We're not out to get anybody. We just want to be friends without really taking any sides. But I'll get into some of the crazy things officials have experienced on the field in a minute.
I have one rule I try to follow when I head out on Friday nights: never wear the colors of either team playing. So if I'm on my way to Blue Springs/Blue Springs South, no, I won't be donning any purple or green and blue. If I'm pacing the sidelines of a Blue Valley/Blue Valley Southwest game, I'll be staying away from the black and gold or green.
Well, I unknowingly violated that rule in a game last season during a Center/University Academy contest. There was a threat of rain that night, and I own a lightweight blue and yellow rain jacket. Guess the colors of the Center Yellowjackets.
At halftime of that game, I was standing on the sideline, and the intermission was nearly over. Center had not yet returned to the field. The referee was nearby. He turned to me and said, "You better get your team to the field or they're going to get flagged for delay of game."
It was at that moment I realized my blunder. I'm much more vigilant now.
During the games, I don't normally carry on conversations with any of the officiating crew. I know their job is tough enough with the pressure of the game itself. But I did have the opportunity to speak with Phil Parrino who has been officiating games for the past 27 years in some capacity. He has served as an umpire in the majority of the games he's worked, so you'll see him standing some five to seven yards behind the defensive line when the ball is snapped.
He's pretty much seen it all.
Several years ago while working a playoff game at St. Pius X High School, he and the rest of the crew were running off the field at halftime toward the room that is adjacent to the concession stand, so they have to work their way through the crowd.
"As I was approaching, we were running into the room, and when you do that, you want to get to there as fast as you can and avoid the crowd," Parrino said. "There was a relative that had a son that was playing for St. Pius, and several of the family members were there in the stands. They saw me on the field, and as I was coming in, they stopped me and gave me a hug and peck on the cheek. You know, it's kind of a tradition in Italian families to do that, and that was kind of an embarrassing moment because it was such a big game, and there were people around from the other team. The crew I was with jokingly gave me a hard time about it."
But that may not compare to the experience he had in Concordia. This epitomizes small-town football on a Friday night.
"It was about halfway through the third quarter in the game, and all of a sudden, the guy that refs with us that was on the sideline, blew his whistle and came running in," he said. "You figure when the whistle blows from there, it's probably offsides or encroached on the defense. What happened was the three guys working the chain gang were all the ambulance drivers in town for the hospital, and they got a call in the middle of the game. They dropped the chains and just left."
Parrino has witnessed kids in the huddle argue amongst themselves and once saw a running back say he didn't want to run the ball anymore because no one was blocking for him. He's seen a coach get thrown out on the first play of the game. He's had coaches yell at him for an entire game. But there's a reason he's been doing this for 27 years.
"These officials work really hard to get the rules down and do the best they can," Parrino said. "Every crew I've been on has taken a lot of pride in that. You learn through the years and try to remember how much work the coaches and kids put into this. For the coaches anymore, this is a 12-month job for them. Everyone of them is competitive. They want to win and they really work hard at practice. You really try to do the best you can."
And that's all any of us are doing, the best we can for a game we love so much.

My first cricket coach died from bowel cancer and as a consequence my awareness of this disease increased greatly.
He was a wonderful man who, along with his family, became great friends and that's why
I became a patron of Bowel Cancer UK, the UK's leading bowel cancer research charity.
That's also why I'm encouraging sons, dads, brothers, uncles, nephews and granddads to join together this Decembeard and show their support for the charity.
The rules are simple, just clean shave on 30 November and let your facial hair flourish throughout the month of December.
Already bearded? No problem. Dye, ditch or decorate
your beard and join the campaign.
More than 44 people die from bowel cancer every day in the UK, it's the nation's second biggest cancer killer.
However, it shouldn't be. It's treatable and curable, especially if diagnosed early.
Taking part is easy, sign up at bowelcanceruk.org.uk/decembeard

One of the hardest tasks that a diy video or audio producer will encounter is recording high quality audio in less than optimal recording environments.
Often when we create videos for clients we are required to record audio voiceovers or other types of overdub. The uninitiated might think that you require expensive recording equipment to capture a high quality sound.
In truth good qualiy recording equipment has never been easier to use or cheaper. That hard part is creating a high quality recording environment
In this article I'm going to show you how you can create a great audio recording environment using a cheap memory foam mattress like those you can find at bestmemoryfoammattress.info that will help you get pro sounding audio overdubs.
Sound Bounces Off Walls
In the recent movie Begin Again starring Kiera Knightly and Mark Ruffalo the main characters are required to record a studio album on a budget.
Because they don't have much money they decide to do it outdoors. The casual viewer might think that was because they could not afford to rent a space to record in, but anyone with a background in audio recording would have known the real reason.
The real reason is that when you are inside in room, any room, the properties of the room influence the quality of the sound in that room.
Think of it like when light shines through a stained glass window the light takes on the color due to the properties of the glass. Well, in recording audio, the room is like the glass. Every room that you record in acts like a fliter on the sound emphasising some fequencies and deempahsising other frequencuies.
It happens because of the way the sound is reflected around the room. The sound takes on a color and for recording audio this is a bad thing.
Professional studios are designedt to minimise this effect. The sound still echos around the room but the room is contructed so that the sound is not overly colored. Like a seethrough normal glass window.
Buy your spare bedroom or your office has probably not been contructed like this. So anything you record in that environment will be colored by the type of room.
So What Can Be Done About It?
So I promised some help on this. Well here is what we have done here at Antos for recording video voiceovers.
We simply purchased a cheap memory foam mattress and used it stood on it's end behind the recording source. So for example if we are recording a voiceover we have the narrator stand. Obviously the microphone faces the narrator but behind the narrator is a large memory foam mattress. This mattress absorbs the sound so that the only thing that the microphone which is directional is picking up is the sound of the voice and not the reflections of the room.
This results in a dry sounding recording without any reverb so we digitally add in a little reverb effect to recreate the room. It's a but like recording a green screen video. The memory foam mattress acts like the green screen, isolating only the source that we want to record and allowing us to place that source in any audio environment we choose using reverb impulse response technology.
To save even more money you could use a simple memory foam mattress topper, which is a thin version like these ones here, but you will need to build a structure to help it stand up.
I should add that unless you plan to also sleep on the mattress then you don't need to pay any more than about $150 and this makes it a very affordable solution to getting high quality audio recordings done on a budget.
Another cheap sound gobo alternatives is the insulation material that you put inside walls but it's very messy and itchy and I think memory foam is a much better alternative.

This's certainly not the tiniest color printer unemployed, however-- Epson still keeps the bragging civil liberties for its "Small-in-one" series like the XP-420, however the explanation those are thus very small is given that they do not have the performance features of the MFC-J470DW.

A follow-up to the Chimerix story from a bit earlier ....
Not to defend the company, but if Chimerix's contention that it can't interrupt the testing and approval process to help save 7-year-old Josh Hardy doesn't hold water for you, a glance at the biotech's Website might be of interest. It seems Chimerix has encountered this question before regarding Brincidofovir, the drug that the boy's family seeks to help fight a life-threatening viral infection.
On its site, Chimerix says it has received "hundreds" of requests for "compassionate use" of the drug, a situation that it says requires the company to work closely with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration. It has offered up the drug for patients who have requested it in the past, but only in conjunction with ongoing tests, which are in a lull right now.
"Making an experimental drug available outside of controlled clinical trials has the potential to slow or derail the approval of that drug," the company's Website says. "Providing Brincidofovir in any of these situations, where there is currently limited evidence to suggest that our experimental medicine would be helpful, could very likely place the entire development program at risk."
The company even has an email address set aside for compassionate use requests of Brincidofovir: firstname.lastname@example.com.
Further, it points to a paper from the trade group Biotechnology Industry Organization, which outlines the history of cases like those involving Josh. In its April 2010 paper, the group agrees that early access to program could create a conflict between the needs of a few against those of large patient populations and their need to have the drug approved swiftly.
The paper says: "A patient's right to treatment based on his or her autonomous decision-making ability does not supersede a company's ethical responsibility to develop and market safe and effective products as fast as possible."
Spokespersons from Chimerix or Biotechnology Industry Organization did not respond to requests for comment.
To recap, Josh has survived four bouts with cancer, but his weakened immune system contracted a life-threatening virus after he underwent a bone-marrow transplant. His parents are pleading with Chimerix to provide Brincidofovir to their boy but the company is reluctant because it has received hundreds of requests for compassionate use of the drug, which would delay development and approval for it. Chimerix says it's unlikely to gain approval before 2016.

Harpsychord follows hot on the heels of 2015's Volume V and Kleptomania
and his previous 2012 solo masterpiece, Twango
Nat da Hatt is a political refugee from New Zealand who has settled in Japan where he spends his days in a cave creating tone paintings on an array of devices and instruments including: guitar, thumb piano and a Korg vocoder.
He's also collaborated with fiffdimension's Dave Black on the 2014 explicitly Japanese psychedelic album
ネオン列車の風景 Neon Train Landscapes
and guested on Ngumbang
as well as with American jaw-harp maestro Richard Morrison as Mezcla de Refresco
the Ballad of William Knife

安里屋ユンタオーバードライブ Asadoya Yunta Overdrive (Okinawa)
Here's a new bonus track we've added to the album ネオン列車の風景 Neon Train Landscapes – our version of a traditional shima uta (island song) from 沖縄 (Okinawa).
Dave Black – sanshin, harmonica, field recordings
Nat da Hatt – acoustic & electric guitars, electronics
Cylvi Manthyng – shakuhachi
As you can hear, the music of Okinawa is quite distinct from that of mainland Japan.
Ascension Band 2005
"With elements of punk, post-punk, jazz, classical, straight rock, opera and music hall, the Ascension Band are that rare thing: Something Wholly Other. They retain avant garde cred and still manage to rock harder than AC/DC." – www.varsity.co.nz
This riff
by organist/conductor/arranger Nigel Patterson (The Black Seeds, The Manta Rays, Fly My Pretties), guitarist & organiser Dave Edwards (fiffdimension, The Winter), and over a dozen musicians on guitars, basses, drums, electronics, keyboards, trumpets and vocals, was the seed that grew into a full scale electric symphony: Evolution.
"The 50-minute piece of music, broken down into six movements, was performed live over a few nights for the Fringe Festival in 2005; the group taking out the Best Music Award.
"It was stunning. Discordant guitars were choked, drums clattered and crashed, voices mingled with percussion and keyboards – but this form of free-improvisation had a structure to it. It had movement, it had a plan. It was a great beast of a song that writhed and wriggled and often managed to run downhill, away from the players – in the best possible way.
"Here, the show has been recorded onto a CD for posterity – and it begs discovery. It's an intense listen – but that's to be expected from a group of players who took their name from one of John Coltrane's toughest listening albums." – Simon Sweetman
Nigel Patterson – hammond organ & conductor
Will Rattray – electric guitar
Bell Murphy – bass
Warwick Donald – bass
Murray Stewart – keyboards
Damian 'Frey' Stewart – laptop
Ryan Prebble – tone generator
Felicity Perry – vocal
Atushi Iseki – vocal
Matt Baxter – drums
Greta Welson – drums

The Winter: Exit Points
Today is the last day of winter in the southern hemisphere – so to celebrate, here's the fifth album from The Winter – a New Zealand free improvisation trio of Mike Kingston, Simon Sweetman and Dave Edwards… with a sound that swerves from acoustic folk/blues with hints of Asian, Celtic, and Balkan influences, to electroacoustic soundscapes, abstract dissonance, and pots & pans percussion.
Mike Kingston: guitar, bass, clarinet, electronics
Dave Edwards: guitar, bass, banjo, harmonica, ukulele, sanshin, electronics
Simon Sweetman: drums and percussion, electronics
2014 roundup
Bye 2014 – overall a pretty good year here.
Most importantly we put out two new albums in contrasting styles: ネオン列車の風景 Neon Train Landscapes and in the non-idiomatic idiom in Norway.
The first was a composed Japanese psychedelic rock album while the second showcased the free improvised music I'd been influenced by in my earlier years in Wellington.
It was also a good year for travel to southeast Asia: I visited Singapore, Malaysia and Indonesia for the first time… and I finally returned home to New Zealand after two years living in Western Australia and a year before that in Okinawa.

Aarthi Sri Shakumbari ji ki-Hindi BHajan
Translated by
"Shakambari Devi is considered a Symbol of Botanical Energy. According to the legends Shakambari Devi helped the living creatures to survive only upon plants and vegetables (shaka-ahar), when no water was available on this earth, for full long hundred years. Hence, she was known as Shakambari. The splendid form of Shakambari Devi is described in detail in Devi Mahatmya in the last chapter named 'Murti Rahasya'. The temple of Goddess Shakambhari or Shakumbhri, is situated in the Jasmour village area, at a distance of 40 km to the north of Saharanpur in Uttar Pradesh state. It is said that, at this place, Mother Goddess Shakumbhri killed the mighty demon king Mahishasura. It is also believed that, here she performed worship and meditation for 100 years, having a vegetarian meal only once at the end of every month. Another big temple of Shakumbari Devi is located in Badami, of Bagalkot District of Karnataka."
1.Hari Om shakumbari ambaa ji ki , aarthi keejo,

Wordless Wednesday : Falls
2 comments:
That looks beautiful. :-)ReplyDeleteReplies
It really is beautiful - the Ingleton trail in the Dales, which has something like 8 waterfalls in 4 and a half miles. That particular fall is Thornton Force, which Turner once sketched. The downside? It's more like a trial to do the 4 and a half mile walk than a trail! Seriously arduous, its a very steep uphill/downhill walk on rocky pathways and we weren't prepared for it at all. I was so glad to get to the end of it and grab myself a pint!Delete

Leif Garrett (born Leif Per Nervik; November 8, 1961) is an American singer, actor and television personality. He became famous in the late 1970s as a child pop star and teen idol, but received much publicity in later in his adult life for his drug abuse and legal troubles making him infamous.
Garrett was born in Hollywood, California to Carolyn Stellar and Rik Nervik, and started his entertainment career at age five. Garrett's father was absent for most of his life, but Garrett has since reconciled with him, stating "He feels so badly about missing the years when you know you're so proud to have son, like from age 12 to manhood, when you help influence and guide your son's life. Well, he missed out on all that stuff. He is regretting missing that and he now treats me like that."
Garrett and his sister, Dawn Lyn of My Three Sons, worked a variety of small acting jobs. They co-starred in the horror movie Devil Times Five as juvenile mental patients who almost innocently go on a murder spree at an isolated ski resort. Dawn and Leif also guest-starred in an episode of Gunsmoke as well as Wonder Woman.
In the first few years of his career Garrett performed under the name of "Leif Per"; however, casting agents found the name difficult to pronounce (Per is pronounced the same as "pair" or "pear"). In 1971, Garrett received a check in the mail incorrectly addressed to a "Leif Garrett". After Garrett and his mother undertook research on the name, they found that the name "Garrett" held connotations of strength, so the name stuck.
Garrett's more notable performances include the breakthrough role of Jimmy Henderson in Bob & Carol & Ted & Alice (1969); the protagonist's son Mike Pusser from the Walking Tall movies (1973, 1975, 1977) and the recurring role of Zack Russell on the ABC TV series Family. Leif also played the role of Leonard Unger, the son of Felix Unger (Tony Randall), on the ABC series The Odd Couple, a part that previously was played by Willie Aames.
In the fall of 1975, Garrett, at fourteen, appeared in the role of Endy Karras in a 12-week CBS drama series Three for the Road, with Alex Rocco as his father, Peter Karras, and Vincent Van Patten as his older brother, John Karras. The story line is that of a father and two sons, grief-stricken over the death of their wife and mother sell their house, buy a recreational vehicle, and roam throughout the United States. Garrett's appearance in the program triggered a response from teenage girls, and led to his first appearances in teenage magazines, such as Tiger Beat. Garrett also played alongside Lee Van Cleef in two Spaghetti Westerns shot in Israel God's Gun and Kid Vengeance.
In the 1980s, Garrett returned to acting, appearing in a small role as Bob Sheldon in the 1983 Francis Ford Coppola film The Outsiders. In 1985 he starred in Shaker Run as a mechanic and in Thunder Alley as the lead singer of a pop band that is torn apart by drugs. Other notable Leif Garrett movies from the decade include Delta Fever and the horror film Cheerleader Camp.
In autumn of 1976, Garrett signed a recording contract with Atlantic Records and recorded his first album, Leif Garrett. The album was released in 1977, and his first four singles charted modestly on the US Hot 100. All of these hits were covers of late 1950s and early 1960s hits such as "Runaround Sue." In mid-1978 he signed with Scotti Brothers Records and recorded his second album, Feel the Need. Its first single, "I Was Made For Dancin'", reached #10 on the US Hot 100 and #4 on the British chart in early-1979. It became his greatest hit in both the US and the UK. However, subsequent singles failed to crack the Top 20 in either country. Nevertheless, Garrett continued to record, releasing the albums Same Goes For You (1979), Can't Explain (1980) and My Movie of You (1981) in quick succession.
After a break from 1990 to 1995, Garrett returned to acting and singing, appearing in the 1995 low-budget horror film Dominion, touring with The Melvins and recording vocals for their cover of "Smells Like Teen Spirit" on The Crybaby (2000). In 1998, a greatest hits compilation, The Leif Garrett Collection, was released. Garrett, however, has stated: "My former record label was bought out. The label was started by me … meaning my music started it, funded it. And then it was bought out by some company that released the Greatest Hits Collection. Not only have I not seen any royalties from that, but they wanted me to promote it - the compensation being a couple of CDs." In 1999 he formed the band Godspeed with Christopher Wade Damerst and Michael Scott (The Distortions, Deadtime Stories). They recorded a three-song EP on Garrett's own label - Tongue and Groove Records - and debuted on The Rosie O'Donnell Show, but broke up after only a few performances.
Garrett's stage work includes playing the title role in Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat and, in late 2000, appearing in the National Theatre of the Deaf's production of A Child's Christmas In Wales. He also appeared in summer stock at The Barn Theatre's production of Old Timer in 2001. In the same year, he voiced himself in the animated television series Family Guy episode, "The Thin White Line".
In 2003, Garrett appeared as himself in the David Spade film Dickie Roberts: Former Child Star. He also co-wrote and sang "Former Child Star" for the film's soundtrack and was one of the singers of "Child Stars on Your Television", which played over the ending credits.
In September 2006, Garrett appeared on the celebrity edition of Fear Factor. He won the grand prize of $50,000. On New Year's Eve 2006, Garrett first appeared in Las Vegas with retro act Original Idols LIVE!, hosted by Barry Williams. The show also featured the Bay City Rollers, Bo Donaldson and The Heywoods and The Cowsills, with selected appearances by Merrill Osmond, Tony DeFranco and Danny Bonaduce.
In August 2007, CMT cast Garrett in the short-lived Ty Murray's Celebrity Bull Riding Challenge, among nine celebrities appearing on the show. However, he quit after one episode, citing soreness and lack of desire to continue.
In November 2007, Garrett released the album Three Sides of..., which constituted songs he recorded with his current band F8 and his 1990s band Godspeed as well as some new songs.
In 2008, the producers of TruTV's The Smoking Gun Presents: World's Dumbest... added Garrett to their cast, which features comedic commentary from celebrities like Garrett who have had brushes with the law. Garrett has frequently spoofed his troubled past and participates in a wide variety of sketches and skits written specially for him by the show's producers. In a 2010 episode, Garrett reenacted his most recent arrest with two actors portraying police officers.
Garrett toured South Korea in May 2010, with shows in Seoul and Busan. This marked the 30th anniversary when Garrett performed in Korea in June 1980. He embarked on another tour of the country in 2013.
Garrett was a cast member in the fourth season of Celebrity Rehab with Dr. Drew, which documented Garrett's struggle with addiction to heroin. The season premiered December 1, 2010. Garrett's mother, Carolyn Stellar, who was battling Stage 4 lung cancer, appeared in Episode 7, which was filmed during Family Day, when the recovering addicts were visited by their loved ones to discuss how their addiction affected their family relationship.
In the early 2010s, Garrett began collaborating with punk-rock artist and songwriter Craig Else. Garrett has released two digital-exclusive singles sharing Else's credits, "Everything" (released in 2010) and "Help You, Make You" (released in 2012). The two have also recorded a cover of Neil Young's "Old Man".
Beginning in 1979, Garrett dated English actress Nicolette Sheridan; the two split six years later. Two decades later, Garrett credited Sheridan for helping him at the start of his career, and said of her "She's a special person in my life."
In 1986, Garrett joined the Church of Scientology and provided lead vocals to the song "The Way to Happiness", as well as backing vocals to the title track of the L. Ron Hubbard album The Road to Freedom. However, Garrett left the church in 1992 after becoming a qualified Scientologist.
Garrett also dated celebrities such as his former Family co-star Kristy McNichol, Tatum O'Neal and Justine Bateman. In the 1990s, Garrett was also in a long-term relationship with actress Elaine Bilstad, who died in 1999 of a heart problem. Of Bilstad, Garrett said: "The person that I really wanted to spend the rest of my life with passed away and that one hurt real bad. She was an angel. She was amazing to me - that someone of that much beauty, not only physically, but also in her heart and in her soul could be taken from here so quickly."
In a 2012 interview, Garrett stated, "At 16 I always used to say that I never want to have a kid because I don't want to bring it into this world. And I've kind of kept to that - but my paternal instincts have become very strong." He also expressed his wishes to adopt a child whom he would name Kerrie.

Things I liked: The overall look and style, very clean lines.
Things I would have changed: The current threads strip too easy. That is the only drawback to this sight. This is the best style out there for my crosman pistol, but those threads just have to be cut out of stronger materiel.
What others should know: I had originally given this sight a very good rating. Things seemed good until I tried to re-sight in at a farther distance and realized that the threads had stripped. PA swapped it we me for another, a very painless transaction, I must say. Now I can see I'm going to have the same problem with this one. I'll eat the cost on this one and find a different sight down the road. I'm not going to put PA and myself though another switch even though I know PA would gladly help me out. This will not stop me from purchasing more products down the road from PA. I haven't mounted this sight yet and just playing with it I can see the same outcome. This is not my 1st rodeo, I've been around guns for over 60 years. I'm going to try to find parts to replace with better threaded currents.

Things I liked: Very well made and the settings stay where I leave them. The price is reasonable. Very clean cut and it operates smoothly.
Things I would have changed: Nothing. I like it just the way it is made.
What others should know: I've used similar Williams sights on my hunting rifles, smokeless powder burners. I don't see any difference in quality.

Things I would have changed: More elevation for my 2300T.
What others should know: Be ready to shoot better groups. Some way to get more elevation would be nice.

Also wish to know if will work on the 2260mb
I have a new Sheridan 2260MB. Will this sight fit , and work with the original front sight. I would also like to know the width of the opening in the blade. The William LPA sight blade width I have, is too wide for the distance it is from my eye. Thank You.
Will this sight fit up on a benjamin Discovery?

Revenge sketches the transformation of Jhumur, an educated, ambitious Bengali lady who after marriage transforms into a meek, obedient wife. Taslima Nasrin has portrayes Jhumur as a strong yet submissive woman who married Haroon for love and is bewildered to see the change in her husband's attitude after the wedding. The book keeps us pondering on the ideas of right and righteous acts.
When Jhumur married Haroon, little did she know that the life she dreamed would remain in her fantasies. Haroon was just another orthodox husband with little respect for her dreams or ambitions; he expected her to do the cooking for the entire family, despite having maids to do the same. He insisted her to cover her head and was not allowed to stand in the balcony or travel alone or to her parents' place. He defined Jhumar's life by setting a code of acceptable behavior befitting a daughter-in-law rather than seeing her as a woman yearning for his love and companionship.
When Jhumur conceives after six weeks of marriage, Haroon forces her to abort, as he does not believe that the child is his. This was the ultimate betrayal to Jhumur. Her husband had destroyed the truth, trust, and purity of their relationship. Jhumur realizes that she hates him and webs plans to get revenge by falling in love with Afzal, the painter living downstairs. Their mutual attraction leads to physical intimacy, and Jhumur plans to have a child fathered by Afzal. She connived by avoiding her husband during her ovulation period and keeping a physical relationship with Afzal.
By the time Jhumur becomes pregnant for a second time, Haroon is a totally changed man. He excludes her from all household chores and involves her opinion in all the decisions. He believes the child to be his beyond any suspicion and acts like a doting father, taking care of all the baby-related chores.
Jhumur's life changes also. She no longer has to cover her head, is allowed to travel alone to meet up with her old friends, and decides to work as a eacher. Haroon no longer controls her and accepts her as an intelligent woman strong enough to make her own decisions.
Taslima Nasrin has narrated the emotional turbulence that Jhumur suffers after marriage very vividly. Jhumur faces a myriad of emotions, from the bliss of being married to the man she loved to the shock knowing his abusive nature to her insecurities and helplessness to realizing she didn't love Haroon anymore. Jhumur opts out of divorce, as she had seen how divorced women are treated by her society. (Even their parents treat them worse than the maid.) She accepts that her life and fate is tied with Haroon, but she can't let him off the hook for the distrust he had shown her.
Nasrin tried to portray Jhumur as a determined modern woman, though occasionally one can feel the contradiction in the character. Jhumur hates her husband well enough to have a child from another man, yet she says she doesn't hate him enough to leave him. She decides to free herself from the traditions, yet she is traditional enough to consider marriage was for life and couldn't live with the "disgrace of divorce." Other than slight discrepancies in setting boundaries to Jhumur's thoughts, the novel is an uncomfortably wonderful read.

BHP Billiton says the company is looking for a new CEO that truly understands the world's biggest miner amid reports the group is preparing for sweeping changes at the top and battling a tougher global market for commodities.
During BHP's annual general meeting in Australia on 29 November, Chairman Jac Nasser said the group had been searching for a successor since the day CEO Marius Kloppers was appointed.
Kloppers has faced strong criticism over the years, after failing to close three major deals, including a full takeover of rival Rio Tinto, a merger with Rio Tinto's iron ore business and a bid for Canada's integrated producer of fertilizer, industrial and animal feed products Potash Corp.
Criticism of Kloppers was further exacerbated after he signed off two US shale gas takeovers worth $17bn, just before gas prices slumped on oversupply in the country.
Despite this, Kloppers still retained some praise for his leadership through the financial crisis, following a rein-in of costs and maintenance of shareholder payouts. Kloppers even gave up his bonus this year, after BHP took a $2.8bn charge on the value of its shale gas assets.
"If he is replaced, I only hope they choose someone from inside and not someone that parachutes in, because we need a CEO that understands this company. Sure, Marius Kloppers is yesterday's man, but that doesn't mean he isn't needed anymore, he proved that during the global financial crisis," said Ian Mancovitch, a BHP shareholder at the Sydney AGM.
There are four internal candidates that are seen as front runners for the job; nonferrous chief Andrew Mackenzie, iron ore head Marcus Randolph, Mike Yeager, aluminium and nickel chief Alberto Calderon.
BHP's Nasser said that the group is using its own human resources people and external advisers to analyse the candidates.
"As part of the executive development process we identify high potential people at various levels both inside and outside the company on an ongoing basis," Nasser said.
The company added that it does not know when to expect a succession but it identified the search as a top priority.
Adding more difficulty to the search, under BHP's dual Australian-United Kingdom listings, BHP's headquarters must be in Australia, and its chief executive must spend 51 percent of his or her time in the country.
The new CEO will have to commandeer the company through a tough environment, as BHP's 2012 / 2013 bottom line is tipped to tumble by some $4bn to just under $15 bn due to lower minerals prices.
BHP's shares rose 1.5 percent in early London trading to change hands at 1962.50 pence each. It is also up around 5 percent so far this year.

Potter Valley
Potter Valley
In 1852, when William and Thomas Potter and Mose Briggs first entered what would be known as Potter Valley, they were searching for the headwaters of the Russian River from their base in Sonoma County. The Pomo People called it Ba-lo Kai. They found three Pomo villages (each about 500 people strong), the Russian headwaters, and a lush valley with wild oats "stirrup high". Eventually the Potters returned to settle there, and the valley became known by the American ranchers' name.
Potter Valley is located just northeast of Ukiah and Lake Mendocino in Mendocino County, with the valley floor at roughly 1,200 ft elevation. The headwaters of the East Fork of the Russian River originate in the valley. Potter Valley is a rich agricultural region, with excellent soils, planted mostly in irrigated pasture, wine grapes, and pears, but supporting a wide variety of farms and ranches. The post office opened in 1870, Guinness McFadden moved here in 1970… and the rest is history.

The AFC Divisional Round. KC at home. The last time they won in Foxboro was 1990. The last time they played us was the 41-14 loss last season.
If they win, Alex Smith is one game from playing a Super Bowl in San Francisco's stadium. The irony of that is very amusing to me.
If we win, we become just the second team in the Super Bowl Era to go to 5 Conference Championship games in a row.
Notable inactives for the us are Tre Jackson and Tavon Wilson.
Notable inactives for KC are, well, no one. None of the names of thier 7 jumped out at me, which is my standard.
So, that means Jules and Danny are back for us, and Maclin and Houston are playing for them.
Weather in Foxboro is chilly, no precip, no real wind.
Ian Eagle and Dan Fouts have the call, and Craig Wrolstad is the ref.
Go Pats!!!

Newsstand: April 16, 2015
Once more, with feeling! In the news: The provincial government gets set to sell some of its stake in Hydro One, loosening up restrictions on food truck permits, and the taxi industry cozies up to Jim Karygiannis.
Once more, with feeling! In the news: The provincial government gets set to sell some of its stake in Hydro One, loosening up restrictions on food truck permits, and the taxi industry cozies up to Jim Karygiannis.
The Maple Leafs have fired almost everybody. Welcome to the dark night of this city's hockey soul. In the news: it will cost $990 million to reroute the Gardiner, a new signage pilot project for Toronto parks and trails, the TDSB spies on a principal, and no fines for smokers who light up in public places.
Rob Ford is featured in the latest print ad for Bad Boy Furniture. It is almost like seeing the birth of a future Vintage Toronto Ads post right before our very eyes. In the news: Platform changes for most GO trains at Union Station, bed bug and cockroach infestations at a TCHC property in Scarborough, and another live music venue closes.
Apparently Marilyn Manson was punched in the face at a Denny's restaurant in Lethbridge, Alberta over the weekend. Lethbridge, this is why you are not allowed to have nice things. In the news: John Tory's "big data" idea to improve Toronto traffic, a hen delivery service for Torontonians who want to raise poultry, a fallen crane in the west end, and freezing rain warnings across the GTA.
All news, all the time. Here is what is happening in our fine city: a proposal to review dog bylaws, the TSO cancels an appearance by a controversial Ukrainian pianist, and the hunt for a purple and gold statue in the Beach.
Here is some pretty crazy news: apparently Cadbury Mini Eggs are now available year-round. Did you know this? Mind-blowing... In other news: Jim Karygiannis wants to ban Uber from City-owned phones, Giorgio Mammoliti wants to take Frances Nunziata to court, an elderly man who was hit by a streetcar has died, and a handy list to help navigate what is open and closed this long weekend.
No April Fools' joke this morning, just the news—which, let's face it, can kind of seem like a bad joke most days: the TTC is investigating a violent altercation involving two transit officers, Mayor John Tory thinks city councillors spend too much time sweating the small stuff, a TCDSB nominee gets bounced from joining the Board of Health, and York University students head back to class.
If there is one thing to be gleaned from today's headlines, it's that if people ran their personal finances in the same way that governments ran theirs, most of us would either be destitute or in jail. In the news: the provincial government will not cover an $85-million shortfall on the Spadina subway extension, a new report says the future of the TCHC looks grim without a $7.6-billion investment in property repairs, and the City remains powerless to collect $4 million in property taxes from the federal government.
#AlwaysInOurHeartsZaynMalik. If that reference is lost on you, consider yourself a blessed human being. In the news: tempers flare at a meeting of the executive committee, Mayor Tory tells the premier to get on with municipal election reform, and UofT hopes that binding arbitration will end the teaching assistant strike.
Once again, it is time for the news: the Toronto Public Library ends its used-book buying program, Ontario craft breweries want their own retail store, and a mayoral summit with Premier Kathleen Wynne.
Early reports say a German plane has crashed in the French Alps, likely claiming the lives of all 148 passengers on board. In less grim the news this morning: Mayor Tory defends some TCHC executive bonuses, frozen pipes are still affecting more than 800 properties in the city, and antique explosives in a Vaughan home.
According to American economist Tyler Cowen, Scarborough is the best ethnic food suburb in the world. What do you think, Raccoon Nation: is Scarborough the best-kept foodie secret in the city? Discuss amongst yourselves. In the news: UofT has reached a tentative deal with teaching assistants, parking enforcement officers get heat for ticketing on-duty Wheel-Trans vehicles, a portion of Eglinton Avenue is closed because of a weak tunnel, and a patient at Sunnybrook tests negative for Ebola.
If you're under the age of 48, you have not been alive to see the Toronto Maple Leafs win a Stanley Cup. Sadly, this year won't be your year either, since the Leafs have been bounced out of playoff contention once again. In the news: Kristyn Wong-Tam wants to curb construction noise, a former Paralympian is asked to remove her service dog from a Toronto Tim Hortons location, Captain John's is up for auction again, and more pieces of the Gardiner come tumbling down.
Happy Saint Patrick's Day. While it a pint of beer probably won't make these headlines any more enjoyable, no one will stop you from trying. In the news: controversy after two Ryerson journalism students were denied entry into an on-campus meeting for racialized students, a first look at the design for the Pan Am Games torch, and new statistics about Tasers.
Another day, another news headline. Why beat around the bush? Let's get right to it. In the news: The new municipal budget passes, the development potential of a Scarborough LRT, and plans for the Stollerys building site.
A new phone app lets you answer all your text messages with lyrics from Drake songs. Not completely useful, but endlessly amusing. In the news: a privacy analyst is under investigation at Trillium Health Centre, hundreds of possible job cuts loom over the TDSB, retaliation graffiti appears in Kensington Market, Shad is the new host of Q, and it's back to school for some York students.
Employees of a state agency in Florida claim they were directed to not use phrases such as "climate change" and "global warming" in official communications. Let that sink in for a second and then facepalm away. In the news: the uncertain future of the Metro Theatre, a TTC lobby group aims to join the commission's board, and spring road closures.
Rob Ford is at least $23,000 richer thanks to his recent online auctions of "memorabilia." One collector warns that the buyers are unlikely to see a profit from their investment, so here is hoping the person who spent over $16,000 on Ford's NFL tie really does have that kind of scratch to burn. In the news: A TTC bus driver decides to skip four stops along Lawrence Avenue West for unknown reasons, a dog is hit by a TTC bus in Leaside, the ROM has a new interim director, and a fire at the Grand Hotel.

Every week for about six months when the garbage collector's would come in my neighborhood to pick up the garbage, he would stop the truck right in front of my house, and you know how they reve the engine to compact and push down the garbage they have collected and to make room for the new garbage that they need to put in before they have to go back to the dump and make one big drop? Well, that is what he would do. So as they reve the engine to do the compacting, a liquid substance that I fondly like to refer to as "GARBAGE JUICE" would come running out of the bottom of the bottom of the truck, and consequently onto the ground, and right in front of my house. And in the summer time it becomes absolutely unbearable. So here I went, out to the front of the house with a cup of washing powder, the gallon of bleach, my outdoor broom, and the water hose. And I commenced to scrubbing the street in front of my house to help regain some sense of the aromatic bouquet of the roses growing in abundance in my front yard. Every week I had to go through the same thing, repeat this same process. Garbage man came, and I went out or sent my son out to scrub up the "GARBAGE JUICE." Well, one day I 'd had just about enough. So, this particular morning, there I stood on the front porch and waited until I heard the garbage truck coming. When I saw him coming down the street, I marched myself right out there and said, "Hey, excuse me! But every week you come down the street and stop right in front of my house and you reve that truck, and squeeze "GARBAGE JUICE" right in front on my house, and it smells absolutely horrible. And I do not appreciate it. Can you please NOT do that again?" They compliantly and apologetically agreed that they would not squeeze "GARBAGE JUICE" in front of my house again and rolled on up the street. Wow! I was ecstatic. I had gotten something accomplished. I had really gotten through to him. The next week came and once again, I stood on the porch when I heard him coming down the block, and up the street. True to his word, when he got to my house he did not squeeze the "GARBAGE JUICE" in front of my house, just as he had promised. He even nodded his head to me as he passed my house. I was very happy, and smiling I turned to go back into the house. That is, until I heard the truck stop at my next door neighbors house that lives on the right of me, and I heard the truck engine reve, and I saw the "GARBAGE JUICE" come running out of the bottom of the truck, right in front of HER house. And I watched in horror, as it began to roll back down the hill, right-in front-of-my-house. Oh, did tell you, I live on a slopping hill? Hmmm. So, there I went, back down the driveway, with my washing powder, my bleach, my outdoor broom, and the water hose, because I got my neighbors "GARBAGE JUICE."
G.I.G.O. is an acronym used in computer language that means, Garbage In, Garbage Out. In other words, the computer can only give out what you put into it. If you put in garbage, you are going to get garbage back from it. How many times have YOU accepted or received something, "GARBAGE JUICE" that was not actually your own. How many times have we allowed people to put or transfer their garbage into you. We tend to allow people to conveniently dump their woes, their problems, their situations and their circumstances on and their baggage on us, and many times, we just accept it as our own. We can't even draw the line of distinction anymore, because we can't remember that it's not our garbage. We become a human garbage can. It may not even be a whole bag of garbage. It may just be a little trickle of stuff, "GARBAGE JUICE," that you allow to run down your way, in front of your houses, into your bodies that God calls your temples. And if you ignore it, if you cover it up with something like,e maybe the smell of a rose-bush, then maybe, just maybe you can forget that it's there, and the smell will eventually go away. It won't. For as the sun (The Son) continues to allow the heat to bear down on it, (whatever the situation) the smell just gets worse, and worse. It's time to get out the bleach, the washing powder, the outside broom, and the water hose, and wash their "GARBAGE JUICE" off of you.
Now, tell us what you think,

Thanksgiving has been on the brain and after seeing this cocktail on Tasting Table, I thought that I would give it a whirl. It sounded intriguing and utilized celery, a staple in Thanksgiving stuffing, but something that I can't say I've ever used in a cocktail, aside from as garnish for a Bloody Mary.
I've been thinking lately that I've been neglecting the "clear spirits" in my cocktails, in favor of my old favorite and standby, whiskey. It was brought to my attention that I am not alone in this oversight as I read this morning's LA Times article, discussing how "mixologists" (what happened to just being called a bartender?!) are starting to use more clear spirits in cocktails.
After reading my various cocktail recipe books, I kept coming across Sloe Gin and realized it was not part of my bar cabinet and wondered why since it appeared easy to combine with a variety of alcohol. My first foray into Sloe Gin was the classic and aptly named Sloe Gin Fizz.
