3:47 AM | Posted by Cara | Edit Post
I said back awhile ago I was going to try a new recipe every week. That lasted for about 5 weeks straight. Then life kicks in and you know how it goes...
But before I get back to the no carb thing I want to make some of the 5000 recipes I have lined up to try. Make that 5020, I added about 20 this summer. So here's one I made last night only 5019 to go....
But before I get back to the no carb thing I want to make some of the 5000 recipes I have lined up to try. Make that 5020, I added about 20 this summer. So here's one I made last night only 5019 to go....
Cheese and Veggie Crepes*
(the recipe called for 4 crepes you can find them in the produce section. I see them every stinkin' week when I am in Stop and Shop hanging right there by the berries. OF COURSE this week they were out...grrr. So I substituted frozen puff pastry instead..and they were yummy. And of course I changed the recipe and added stuff...like I said yummy)
One puff pastry sheet
8 oz container sliced mushrooms; washed
1 small onion; diced small
1 clove fresh garlic; minced
6 oz baby spinach (I grabbed two good handfuls); washed and dried
Shredded cheese ( I used colby cheddar mix - that's what I had in the refrigerator; would work well with any shredded cheese you prefer)
Thaw puff pastry sheet for 20 minutes on counter. Cut into six squares and put on a baking sheet sprayed with cooking spray
Heat oven to 375
Saute mushrooms, onions and garlic in olive oil over medium heat until most of the liquid has evaporated (about 5-6 min.)
Stir in spinach and cook until just wilted; about 1 minute
Season with salt and pepper and let cool slightly
Spoon mixture evenly in the centers of the six puff pastry squares. Sprinkle about 2 TBL cheese over each. Gently pinch and fold edges of pastry up around filling to keep from spilling over.
Bake for about 10-15 minutes until pastry is golden brown.

Ethics and Safety Guide
April 2016
Guidance Document
Whether testing technologies in the field or collecting information about and with users, we adhere to the highest ethical standards and ensure compliance with local rules and regulations. Ethical action and regulatory compliance are the guardrails within which successful projects operate. Accordingly, STeP is committed to ethical conduct, adherence to local and national regulations, and complying with the rules and guidance of implementing and partner organizations.
Regulations and standards that apply to field testing activities for new sanitation technologies cross multiple national, subnational, and organizational boundaries, highlighting the critical role that they play while underscoring the need for project-level investment. By following regulations, standards and good ethical practices, teams not only meet contractual obligations, but they ensure that people, property, and information are protected, risks are appropriately managed, consent is acquired, and customs and cultures are respected. As a result, trust with partners is developed and relationships are strengthened, further increasing the probability of project success.
In light of this, the purpose of the Ethics and Safety Manual is to share STeP learnings with partners of the Foundation, to support them as they manage field testing activities of their own and to promote good ethical practice among all stakeholders.
Key Topics
We structured the manual according to the following categories:
- Institutional Review Board (IRB)
- Informed Consent
- Regulations and Permissions
- Standards
- Field Testing Safety
Broad in design, the manual does not necessarily provide step by step instructions, nor is it intended to be proscriptive, but it does provide a framework and instructions for Partners to consider. The guidance extends beyond the technological specifications or geographic location of testing and links with, or points to, other STeP resources to ensure that partners are equipped with an informational toolkit essential for success when testing new sanitation technologies in the field.

text: Huneck continues his popular series about Sally the black lab with this sixth entry in the series. When she's left at home, Sally wishes she could go off to school or a job like the other members of her family. In simple, first-person narration, she considers all the jobs she could do, including driving a school bus, teaching school, running for president and opening a restaurant. The names of quite a few occupations and fields of study are included, such as biologist and paleontologist. Huneck's droll sense of humor is evident in both text and illustrations when Sally imagines licking the plates clean in her restaurant or cleaning up after the elephants as a zookeeper. After thoughtful consideration, Sally decides her real job is taking care of her family, illustrated in a rather odd final spread by playing tug-of-war with a sock, with the son of the family on the other end of the sock. Though this is not the most dynamic of Sally's adventures, Huneck's woodblock print illustrations in his distinctive folk-art style are always as charming as Sally herself.

Introduction (written c. November 17, 2012):
Okay… so I wrote this post a while ago, actually, when Selina was home for Labor Day and I was really struggling with jealousy over her wedding. I was sort of debating whether or not to even post this.
I decided to because a) well it's honest and b) I think it says something that's sort of important. Plus c) it might maybe be helpful if you're thinking of getting married someday or if d) you have some extra space on your prayers list.
The Post (written c. September 3, 2012):
For those of you who don't yet know:
My sister Selina is engaged.
I am engaged.
I am older.
She is younger.
She was engaged first.
I am getting married first.
Two words, people:
I don't know how it happened! And I can hardly remember a time when I have found myself in a less satisfactory position. I have been engaged in a spiritual struggle lately, in which I have been so (SO) tempted to see my life as (as Meredith so wisely put it) "a zero sum game." That means: Selina's dress… takes away from my dress. Her flowers from my flowers. Her adorable doily-candle-holders from my I-don't-have-anything-like-that-in-my-wedding(s).
Now I want you to notice something about these examples. Dresses, flowers, doily-candle-holders: they're are all… things. Things! Really pretty things, but things nonetheless. It's not that I'm jealous of Selina's fiance. It's that I'm jealous of her things.
That is silly. That is really, really silly!
The first and most important purpose of this post is to ask you all to please, please pray for me and for all brides or brides-to-be! Because I'm pretty sure (is it wrong to say I hope?!?!) I'm not the only one who feels this way. And I super-de-duper don't want to, and I bet other brides don't either. Because really — why are we all getting married? Oh yeah because we're answering a vocation. And being united in a sacrament. And loving another person more than ourselves. And all sorts of other things that aren't at ALL compatible with envy. So their sometimes-coinciding is, well, really uncomfortable.
The other primary purpose of this post is to say that brides today struggle with envy, jealousy and greed because of:
- Well, original sin, duh, but also and more importantly
- The constant assault on brides by the wedding industry. Which is often actually
- Assault on brides by the devil. Because what does the devil do? He attacks those things that are most powerful in the most insidious way possible.
- If you think I am going overboard here (see pt 7), yeah yeah yeah you're not alone.
Nevertheless, I want to ask you to pray for us. For me, my sister, all brides (which now, as I'm re-writing this, includes Brianna! And my cousin Grace! Whoop! Our family is a-growin.) Because again, the devil likes to assault those things that are the most effective avenues of grace in our lives.
Mary, Queen of Peace, pray for us.
Addendum (Written January 7, 2013):
Selina and Andrew have set a date! Please keep them in your prayers, since Andrew just went off to Naval Officer Training (I think that's what it's called?) in an… undisclosed location? Just in case?
Anyway, he'll be gone for at least three months, and he and Selina are only allowed written correspondence. They are doing really great though, and I'm so proud of my little sister and how maturely she is handling such a difficult wedding planning situation!
I was so afraid that even after Dan and I were married I might experience some sort of retroactive envy for Selina's big day. But: so far so good? I'm hoping this is due to the marital grace people keep telling me about, and that it's going to stick around.
I did, however, have a nightmare that Selina decided she wanted her reception theme to be: bilingual. Not that that makes any sense. The point is, all the toasters had to give their toasts first in English and then in Spanish. So I was freaking out at the reception trying to write a speech that was both as heartfelt as Maura's at my wedding… and simple enough to be quickly translated into remedial Spanish.
It was horrible. I was all like, "A bilingual theme?? Seriously Selina?!"
Totally something she would do, too.
The sneaky little booger.

|And we win again. Mordue brewery defend the BOB title with Apollo 40.
For the full list of entrants and winners see here. But I would be surprised if my Apollo 40 dominated the field by a long shot in the same manner X squared did last year. Anarchy at second had a formidable entrant with their 6% Belgian pale ale/wheat beer hybrid and Acton ales at third had an IPA that stood out with resiny citrus hops.
Yet none the less I felt we had a beer with complexity, charm and composure. I hoped it was bold enough to stand out as I was aware that any big ass stout or aggressive IPA would certainly grab a judge's attention more than this, humble balanced pale ale with it's caramel malt, orange and herbal notes from the six different hops used.
But as it turns out complexity and approachability were what the judges were after (despite the name, runner up Anarchy Punk Era is a beer packing in plenty of wheaty grain, banana and malt. Big and complex yet approachable). So none the less after meeting the Mayor of Newcastle again and getting lots of photos taken of myself and the Mordue crew it was good to hang out with the diverse set of characters that make up the region's brewing scene and try many beers.

I'm such a seasonal crocheter. Fall: pumpkins and candy corn. Winter: snowman, and x-mas trees. Spring: bunnies,lambs, and chicks Soooo predictable. Here is a pattern I designed myself and I'm toying with the idea as offering it as a free pattern on my blog.
I thought these would make cute spring giveaways for work and friends.
Here is the latest on the weather out here. we have been captive all day holed up here in the house. First pouring rain last night, this morning freezing rain changing over to sleet, then finally snow this afternoon. we have at least 6-8 inches of the white stuff. I did my part to battle it. I shoveled our drive and the sidewalk. Now, hopefully it won't snow more tonite.

I'm sharing one of my favorite, and probably oldest, recipes in my collection for Sunday Supper's holiday dessert event. My Mom got this recipe a very long time ago. It kind of sounds funny to say that but it was about 26 or 27 years ago. It quickly became a family favorite as my Mom made it many, many times throughout the years. I have made it more times than I can count for everything from Christmas to Easter because it's a beautiful cake for any occasion. Being a 3 layer cake, it's a show stopper and always WOW's guests. My Mom had the brilliant idea, because she thought that sometimes 3 layers was too much (silly Mom), she would frost 2 layers for her gathering and then give a single layer to a neighbor. Me…I'm a bit more selfish…I want it all for myself. This cake is that good. I will share, but secretly, I want it all to myself.
Although this cake starts with a mix, there are a few steps. First you must toast the coconut. I do this in a pan in melted butter over LOW heat. Don't rush this process or you will burn the coconut. Trust me on this one. The layers are delicate so use care when removing from the pans. When topping the cake with additional toasted coconut, gently press into the frosting.
- 1 package yellow cake mix (regular size)
- 1 package (3-1/2 ounces) instant vanilla pudding mix
- 1-1/3 cups water
- 4 eggs, room temperature
- 1/4 cup vegetable oil
- 2 cups coconut
- 1 cup chopped pecans
- 4 tablespoons butter, divided
- 2 cups coconut
- 1 package (8 ounces) cream cheese
- 2 teaspoons milk
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla
- 3-1/2 cups confectioners' sugar
- In a large bowl, blend cake mix with pudding, water, eggs and oil. Beat at medium speed for 3 minutes. Stir in coconut and nuts. Pour into three greased and floured 8-in. round baking pans. Bake at 350° for 25-30 minutes or until cake springs back when touched in center. Cool in pans for 10 minutes. Remove to rack to complete cooling.
- For frosting, melt 2 tablespoons butter in skillet; add coconut and stir constantly over low heat until golden brown. Spread coconut on absorbent paper towel to cool. Cream remaining 2 tablespoons butter with cream cheese, milk and vanilla. Add sugar, beating well to blend. Stir in 1-1/2 cups toasted coconut; spread on top and sides of cake. Sprinkle remaining coconut over cake.

We will be using following components along with Nagios.
- NDOUtils - Storing runtime information to database
- NRPE - Remote Plugin Agent
- NSCA - Remote Plugin with Passive Checks
- Nagvis - Visualization Addon
- Nagios Business Process Addons - Custom Bird's Eye View of Business Application
- NSClient++ - For monitoring Windows Hosts
I assume you have nagios installed and working. If not visit quick-start guides Ubuntu, Fedora, OpenSUSE. They work perfectly. Go through nagios console and explore what nagios provide out of the box.
Lets first see how to setup nagios and NDOUtils. NDOUtils is an implementation of Nagios Event Broker module(NEB). NEB has shared object which is loaded by nagios and can register for listening events. NDOUtils passes this event to file or socket. Second part of NDOUtils is C-daemon which saves the information to database.
Download ndoutils tar from nagios site. When you try to compile it you may face problem with mysql library. On Ubuntu first install mysql-dev library. Off course you have to have mysql server installed first.
sudo apt-get install libmysqlclient15-dev
Start mysql client and login as root. Create Database and nagios user.
create database nagios;
use nagios;
grant all on nagios.* to 'nagios'@'' identified by 'nagios'
grant all on nagios.* to 'nagios'@'localhost' identified by 'nagios'
Go to db directory and create necessary tables.
./installdb -u nagios -p nagios -h localhost -d nagios
Now go ndoutil deirctory and compile the source
./configure --with-mysql-lib=/usr/lib/mysql
Copy binaries to nagios. This assumes that you have installed nagios in /opt/nagios (Defualt is /usr/local/nagios)
cp ndo2db-3x /opt/nagios/bin
cp ndomod-3x.o /opt/nagios/bin
Also copy config files - ndomod.cfg and ndo2db.cfg from config directory to /opt/nagios/etc
Modify Following lines.
Now open nagios.cfg file and modify following keys
broker_module=/opt/nagios/bin/ndomod-3x.o config_file=/opt/nagios/etc/ndomod.cfg
Now start ndo2db daemon before restarting nagios
/opt/nagios/bin/ndo2db-3x -c /opt/nagios/etc/ndo2db.cfg
Restart Nagios
/opt/nagios/bin/nagios -d /opt/nagios/etc/nagios.cfg
Now start mysql client and check nagios_hosts and nagios_services table to see that data is getting saved.
You can put following lines /etc/rc.local so that all events fired by Nagios ( which is started from /etc/init.d/nagios script) are picked up and processed. This makes everything started when machine boots up.
/opt/nagios/bin/ndo2db-3x -c /opt/nagios/etc/ndo2db.cfg
Once this is done all your data is saved to database. Now we can build our Performance Parser on top of this. I will come-up with shell or perl script for all installation once complete.

AANP Past-President (2008-2009)
Photo by Don DeBold via Flickr, used under the Creative Commons License.There is an interesting and, frankly, ear-splitting phenomenon occurring in my household. We love birds, so we installed a variety of feeders in both our back and front yards. We diligently fill the feeders as they are drained by hungry birds. Our efforts are worth it. We are treated to a plethora of warblers, wrens, finches, woodpeckers, chickadees, doves, and hummingbirds. The colors are spectacular and we grin with satisfaction at the busy chomping occurring outside of our windows.
We are not, however, the only ones grinning. Our neighbor's cat now loves us, or rather our yard. Not only can he sit in-wait for a bird, but the seed droppings have attracted a variety of other delectable critters. We have what seems to be several families of chipmunks and squirrels that come to eat the discarded seeds on the ground. Unfortunately, the cat has made off with quite a few of these little ones.
And that brings me to Nora, our dog. Upon waking in the morning, after a good stretch, she eagerly trots out of the bedroom and hustles down the stairs. She gains momentum as she goes so that by the time that she reaches the main floor she is galloping towards the bay windows in our kitchen nook. With her tail a blur, she carefully scans the yard. She is usually rewarded with one, and then several more, chipmunks; and on a good day a squirrel; and on a particularly phenomenal day, the cat. She greets each one of these critters with a wildly enthusiastic barrage of barking, moaning, squeaking and (dog) talking. The bigger the animal, the louder she is. Unfortunately, our house has wood floors and minimal carpeting, so her barks bounce off the interior of our home with ear-splitting volume. Inevitably, after about 10 seconds of this cacophony, we command her to stop. She does, but proceeds to whine/talk/moan at the world on the other side of the glass. Exasperated, we often let her out on the porch where she barks her way into the upper hand and clears the lawn of all creatures – winged and tailed. And then there is blessed peace and quiet. She comes in content, we settle in, and soon the birds come back and it all starts over again.
Despite the fact that we are probably losing the upper register of our hearing, we just won't take the bird feeders down. We recognize that we are completely responsible for initiating this chain of events and, as such, have no right to complain. It is a daily lesson for me too as I can't help but wonder what other chain of events I have unknowingly or inadvertently set into motion. Wondering about that also gives me pause whenever I start to blame someone for something as I realize that there is very likely possibility that a long series of events, decisions, and situations led up to what I see before me.
Actually, just about everything seems to work this way – illness included. A sickness is usually the result of a long series of events, decisions, and circumstances. What we see manifested is the tip of a vast iceberg of interconnections. Perhaps, spending some time taking a look underneath would be a good idea, and certainly recognizing the ever-present connectivity in the world gives us deeper understanding and, ultimately, compassion.

Now four years later, Ashton is released from juvenile detention with revenge on the mind little realizing how his conviction altered and damaged Willow and her family.
Prepared for indifference towards everyone he once knew, nearly as soon as Ashton sets foot back in Gilt Hollow, everything changes. Continue reading "Gilt Hollow by Lorie Langdon – Atmospheric Young Adult Whodunit"

My favorite part about my job is the shopping part--surprised? Recently I was asked to find some accessories and other items for a beach house. Though my idea was rejected I thought an Orkney chair would be fun in one of the bedrooms; perhaps the guest room. I was wrong but I decided to take a look at how else they are used. As a bit of history, Orkney chairs come from a small Scottish island of Orkney and were made from the materials that the inhabitants had readily available. What started out as a small stool covered in straw, became a unique looking hooded chair to protect them from the drafts.
Through my search, I saw them used as dining chairs. Mixing chairs at a dining table looks eclectic and collected and I love the Orkney chairs at the head of the table. Found this awesome image HERE.
I love the white washed body on this Orkney chair--it makes it softer. This room is just lovely and the Orkney chair is less predictable. By Phoebe Howard.
I love this image. This is like the book "Goodnight, Moon" where you try to find the little mouse in every picture. Try to find the mini Orkney chair in this one! What a sweet accessory in a child's room. By Shannon Bowers from Veranda.
This is a lot of wood tones for my taste but it's interesting to see the entire table surrounded by Orkney chairs. Heavy. By Mark Boone.
Here is another white painted chair in a beach house--perfect for a beach house like I thought! I'm loving the idea of an Orkney chair in a pool house--and I love the drapery fabric too. By Phoebe Howard again from HERE.
A chair at a stair landing is a perfect use of space. It's a nice focal point and usually you just walk by that area. I'm not saying that you'll sit in that but its a very beautiful chair and therefor the perfect spot for it. Orrick & Co.The amazing thing is that these chairs are all handmade (if you buy right) and unique. You can find them at antiques stores--I was first introduced to them at my first job HERE. So, are they becoming ubiquitous? Do you like them? In my imaginary house on Nantucket, I think I'll have an Orkney chair somewhere in there. Maybe in the guest room...hmm.
Happy Friday (this day can't be over fast enough)!

1) Scouting camera position locations in Dufur, Oregon 2) Boating in Barbados with the sea turtles 3) Arriving into Barbados 4) Amtrak-ing back home from Canada
I love travel. LOVE it. And this last month has been packed with it. I've been on just about every mode of transportation in a short period of time lately, which is probably why all I want to do now is shut myself inside with Netflix and my scrappy stuff.
The wanderlust will come back though, it always does.
I'm now a bit overwhelmed with the amount of pics I want to scrapbook from this year, but honestly, that's a good thing! Do you ever feel the same way after a trip? Does it take you forever to tackle travel layouts, or do you just dive right in? I definitely struggle with them sometimes, eesh.

GASTON COUNTY, N.C. - A Dallas minister is accused of child sex crimes.
Investigators said the crimes happened 20 years ago in Brunswick County.
A home security camera captured images Wednesday of police leading Joseph Hall away from his Gastonia home in handcuffs.
His neighbors watched in disbelief.
"I am thinking to myself, 'What in the world,'" Doug Henry said.
They didn't know what he was charged with until Eyewitness News told them about the 14 counts of sex crimes with a girl as young as 12 years old, including first-degree rape.
The charges are out of Brunswick County, where Hall used to live.
"Joe has been a very good neighbor, very good friend. Shocked is all I can say," Henry said.
Neighbors said he and his wife would often have family and friends visit and swim in their backyard pool.
"We just didn't believe it, we thought that somebody had made a mistake," said neighbor Betty Henry.
The warrants allege Hall raped a girl from 1994-99.
Channel 9 spoke with Brunswick County officials on Thursday. They gave no details about Hall's relationship with the accuser or why she came forward now.
"I was shocked. I would never believe that," friend Wilson Johnson said.
Hall became a minister 10 years before the first alleged offense.
He is currently the men's ministry leader at Restoring Hope Foursquare Church in Dallas.
His profile on the church website stated he leads a group called Men of Valor.
Hall is in jail on a $1 million bond.

This is one of my personal favorites. We took our girls had the girls wear a Sunday dress and took them to the Temple where we talked about what it means to be sealed as a family, how we should act when we are there and how we can feel when we are there. We had asked our girls' mom's to write their daughters a special letter ahead of time and to keep it a secret and then handed them to the girls at the Temple. They were each to go and find their own spot, away from everyone and take a while to read the letter and ponder on it. The girls loved it! Before we left each girl got their picture taken in front of the Temple as well as a picture with their leader and a group shot.
Later we gave them these pictures:
Email me and I can send you a PSD file of this picture.

Encountering Diabetes Emergencies
We, the Texas Diabetes Council, made this video to aid police officers and other first responders to potential diabetes emergencies.
4 replies
I agree with what everyone said about this video. It is so important that all law enforcement and EMS's know to look for some kind of sign that will help them determine that the person is in fact no on drugs or alcohol. Funny—-I just put my I.D. bracelet back on today, I had to take it off when I went in for surgery in February. I'm going to tell all my friends about this video so they can watch it.
This is excellent video!! Everyone should see this!!
This is very good ! All law enforcement officers and EMS should see this one as well as family members/caregivers ! Angie

Last week, a few days before I headed out of town to visit one of my daughters, I asked her if there was anything I could make her cute little girl. She immediately sent me a photo of this dress she'd had her eye on:
This beautiful toddler dress has a soft cascading ruffle down the front and was refashioned from one of my old shirts I no longer wanted.
For the pattern, I used a free pattern designed by Shwin and Shwin called the Black Bird Tunic. The pattern was the perfect size for this toddler and it had the same neckline as the dress my daughter wanted.
I started this task by cutting up a shirt of mine that looked like the one my daughter is wearing in the photo below when she was pregnant with her little girl. Instead of turquoise, my shirt was almost the right color combination as her requested dress. The shirt definitely looks like a maternity top, I realized once I wore it, and so it had to be eliminated from my wardrobe. So glad I got to create something so cute and feminine out of it.
The part of the dress that stumped me a bit was the ruffle on the center of the dress. I learned that this ruffle is called a cascading ruffle and after asking advice from one of the sewing groups I belong to called "Sewing For Children" on Google, I was given two useful explanations on how to make it. Using every scrap I could from the sleeves of my tunic, I was able to get the ruffle cut out, but not the facing. So for the facing, I decided to use a little sturdier fabric and I cut up a white linen shirt I had purchased from a thrift store.
This light weight cascading ruffle dress will be perfect for wearing on a hot summer day, like it was the day I visited my daughter and her family. I encourage you to go to Shwin and Shwin which will direct you to a site called Craftsy where you will be able to download a free pattern for this tunic.
Lengthen the tunic, like I did (I needed the finished length to be 18 1/2 inches), and make a light weight summer dress for your little one. I'm sure they will feel cool and comfortable in a dress just like this one.
Look at the back of this dress and how the top layer of the dress flows over the bottom ruffle.
I'm glad I was challenged to make this dress. According to my daughter, it's her favorite thing I've sewn to date. I call that successful sewing! xoxo Grandma
Interested in joining Craftsy? Just tell them xoxo Grandma sent you.

Since Copyright Is So Handy For Censorship, It's Tempting To Use It To Censor Lots Of Content
from the unrelated-to-creativity deptMatt Schruers, over at the Disruptive Competition Project blog has a great post discussing the harm of the increasing pressure to abuse intellectual property law to do a variety of things that it was clearly never intended for. He calls this intellectual property's "immigration" challenge, noting that these uses have "at best, a tenuous relationship to 'promot[ing]... Progress.'" Why "immigration"? Plaintiffs are jumping into the copyright realm because it's more appealing than laws in other areas, even if what they're seeking to do has nothing to do with copyright. One popular misuse of copyright law these days is as an alternative means of dealing with revenge porn. You can understand why people gravitate to this tool -- especially when there appear to be limited other tools for dealing with such sites. But can anyone explain what using copyright to takedown revenge porn has to do with promoting the creation of new works?
As Schruers notes, a big part of the issue is that copyright law comes with such a giant club in the form of statutory damages, which make it quite a powerful tool in censoring content:
What is happening is that plaintiffs are migrating into IP territory. Why? In a word: remedies. When testifying before Congress on this subject in July, I briefly noted that IP remedies are so attractive that they attract plaintiffs from other areas of the law. Rather than forum-shop, potential plaintiffs jurisprudence-shop. Claimants come to IP seeking redress for concerns that they cannot vindicate elsewhere. In the physical world, immigration is usually an indication that the destination is more attractive. In fact, a large amount of migration occurs in search of better conditions, or opportunities, and the anecdotal evidence suggests that this "remedy immigration" is no different.He goes on to discuss the use of copyright law against revenge porn and the recent "celeb leaks," noting that many of the photos in question aren't really good targets for copyright law, since many are taken by others (selfies are the exception, generally). He compares that to the Garcia case, in which an actress was able to take down the entire (controversial) "Innocence of Muslims" video based on a highly questionable copyright claim. He compares that to another case, Monge v. Maya Magazines, in which a celebrity sought to suppress images of her secret wedding (which she did not take).
When it comes to remedies, intellectual property is the land of opportunity. Robust injunctions, sweeping doctrines of secondary liability allowing recourse against parties other than the wrongdoer, statutory damages, and the availability of rapid DMCA takedowns all encourage plaintiffs to reframe various misdeeds (or perceived misdeeds) as infringement complaints. In a world with a general uniformity of remedies, there would be little reason for plaintiffs to seek out greener pastures, but when the remedies are unmistakably stronger in another area of law, plaintiffs have a natural incentive to reframe their claims to take advantage of them.
Both Monge and Garcia represent efforts to use post hoc IP claims to suppress information from the public. While the circumstances may make for sympathetic plaintiffs, no one seriously thinks the litigation is about authorship. This is why it is so odd that the weapon of choice to suppress content is a statute aimed, ironically, at encouraging publication.Again, one can (and many probably will) argue that they sympathize with the folks making use of copyright in this manner. Perhaps because they are troubled by the situations all of them find themselves in, and the lack of what they feel to be appropriate remedies. But it's quite clear that copyright in these cases is being used for things that have nothing to actually do with copyright. If we want our public policy to work properly, part of that has to involve making sure that we don't twist and turn laws to cover things they should not.
A big part of the issue, frankly, goes beyond just the remedies aspect that Schruers highlights. It has to do with the fact that copyright has long been viewed as a First Amendment work-around. The conflict between copyright and the First Amendment is undeniable -- in fact, whole books have been written about it. Historically, the courts have brushed off these concerns however, arguing that things like "fair use" create a "safety valve." But what's really happening here is that people are recognizing a tool that has been effectively blessed as a "legal" way to get around the First Amendment and use the law to censor content they wish to suppress. People can argue over whether or not it's appropriate to suppress that material, but everyone should at least be willing to admit that copyright should be the wrong tool for this sort of thing no matter what.

The surprise showing of "Scent of a Woman" as best dramatic picture and its star Al Pacino as best actor in a dramatic role at Saturday night's 50th Golden Globe Awards adds a new twist to the Academy Awards race for best picture Oscar.
The film, in which Pacino plays a blind retired Army lieutenant colonel, picked up a third award for Bo Goldman's screenplay. In doing so, it zapped such big Oscar favorites as "A Few Good Men," "Howards End" and "The Crying Game." But another Oscar favorite, Clint Eastwood's Western "Unforgiven," won two Globes, for director Eastwood and supporting actor Gene Hackman's portrayal of a corrupt sheriff.
"No one cares about the Golden Globes except all of Hollywood," was the quip that one studio publicist made during the star-studded ceremonies. "The myth that it foretells the Academy Awards is so often confirmed."
That notion may have occurred to Rob Reiner, who directed "A Few Good Men." He was overheard to joke to Lauren Bacall after the ceremonies: "Well, we were the big losers tonight." His film had been nominated in five categories and won in none.

** Happy New Year **
January 2007
Club Info & Events
Details of the December Meeting
Another nice turnout for the December meeting. Prior to the meeting
six of us met at Papa Ginos and realized that this isn't the greatest
alternative to Applebees. I did an Internet search of resaurants
in the area and found a couple of possibilities. X and O's is not
open yet but should be open soon and is not too far from our current
location. Nocera's,
a reasonably prices Italian restaurant looks like a good place to
try for the next meeting. It's just off of exit 18B and only a ten
minute drive through town back to our meeting place. I will send
out details in an email before the January meeting.
bit of sad news. Ted Blank (left),
our second oldest members has
decided he can no longer attend the
Club meetings. After having a second
heart surgery it's just become too much
for him. In addition, Ted always
brought Sid, our oldest member to the club meetings so it's possible
we may lose them both. Hopefully Sid can catch a ride with Tony
who also lives in the area. We want you both to know you will be
missed and hope you can come back from time to time.
What Did the Holiday's Bring?
I hope everyone had an enjoyable holiday season and were pleasently
surprised to find lots of pipe related niceities under your trees
and/or from a loved one. I bought myself an early Christmas present
in the form of a Tim Hynick Stacked Poker in the Tree Bark finish.
This is one big hunk of wood and a bit out of character from what
I'm used to smoking. But once I lit that baby up there was no turning
back. It smoked like a dream just like the 2006 Club Pipe did, and
although its big I was still able to keep it clenched firmly in
my teeth throughout an hour long pipe cleaning session (well...
most of the time anyway). Tim made the pipe to my specs (for the
most part) and he did an awesome job. I highly recommend purchasing
one of these quality pipes before the time comes when you can't
afford one, but be prepared to wait a bit, he's already got a back
log. In addition, I also received a Savanelli Bing's Favorite in
a smooth finish. I've liked this shape for sometime and decided
to put it on my christmas list.
What did you get for Christmas, Hannauka, or whatever it is you
celeberate this time of year. Bring it to the January meeting for
show and tell.
Husdson Valley Pipe Clubs Holiday Extravaganza and
The Northeast Regional Pipe Smoking Contest
Tom Martin
first annual pilgrimage to the
Hudson Valley Holiday Extravaganza
and Pipe Smoking Contest certainly
lived up to my expectations. It was
held at the S. M. Frank & Company,
Manufacturers of Kaywoodie, Yello-
Bole and Medico brand, in Peeksill,
NY. After hours of driving we stopped at the I-84 Diner for brunch.
With only thirty minutes of driving to go, I was excited to get
there. Apparently not as excited as Dock, Steve were as they passed
us on the highway hell bent on Peekskill, obviously anxious to be
the first of the Sherlock Holmes Pipe Smokers to arrive. [Read

Dunhill Trunk Show at Peretti's of Boston
Rick Frederics
On Saturday, December 2nd my original plans were to go to the
New York Pipe Show. Instead, I decided to forgo the trip to New
York and go to another trunk show at L J Peretti in Boston. This
show had a large assortment of Dunhill pipes. It was nice talking,
not only to the representatives from Dunhill, but also to the many
customers who came into Peretti's including a prospective new member
to the Sherlock Holmes Pipe Club. Tim Hynick also joined me on this
visit, and it was nice talking and showing some of the great pipes
Tim has made --- including the one I was smoking. As with other
visits to Peretti's it was a very enjoyable afternoon. I've had
good times at the New York Pipe Shows in the past, but I have just
as enjoyable times with Steve Willet, Steve Smith, and Charlie -
and everyone at Peretti's. I look forward to my next visit. Oh yes,
in case anyone was wondering I did get a Dunhill pipe which I plan
to light up on New Year's Eve. Happy smoking and Happy New Year
to everyone!

are a one-time offer in limited supply. They are smaller in
size but at this price make for an excellent value.
Hearth & Home Old Tartan
smooth-smoking mixture uses a variety of cube and rough cut
Burleys and a splash of natural Cavendish with just enough
Latakia to add a slight smoky spice. The uniqueness of this
tobacco, however, comes from a rather rare herb- deertongue.
This pale green leaf adds a natural fragrance and light sweetness
to the flavor.

Baking the Kake .......... By Horace Harker
my never ending quest for the perfect tobacco (for me anyway) I've
come across two that I've really enjoyed. I'm a bit hard to please
in the tobacco category but these two seemed to be doing the trick
for me. Both of them are tobacco shop house blends; Deerstalker
I found at the Smokers Gift Harbor in Mt. Kisko, NY and Anniversary
Kake is one of the Hearth and Home blends from PipesandCigars.com
and blended by Russ Oulette. Both of these blends I tried a couple
ounces at a time and in both cases finished it all quickly and ordered
another couple of ounces that were also quickly consumed. Both blends
were enjoyable from the first light to the bottom of the bowl. Here's
where everything changed....
Feeling confident that I loved the tobacco I decided to buy some
in bulk and purchased a pound of each (at two separate times since
this was over the course of a couple of years). Upon smoking the
first bowl of the Deerstalker I noticed it didn't taste the same.
I tried it in numerous pipes and at different times of the day and
it never tasted the same. I called the shop and the woman who answered
told me she blends the tobacco and has been blending the same recipe
for years. I wondered if it may have had Syrian Latakia in it which
is no longer available and they substituted it with something else
but didn't tell anyone. They didn't offer to send me another pound
without me shipping my pound back to them. Needless to say I was
a little disappointed.
I had the same experience with the Anniversary Kake. I probably
liked this blend more than the Deerstalker but when I smoked from
the pound I bought I experienced very varying results. Unlike Deerstalker,
Anniversary Kake is a pressed tobacco and comes in 5" by 1" bars.
I found inconsistent smoking qualities from bar to bar. I mentioned
this to Russ when I saw him at the New York show this past March
and he suggested that the inconsistency may be a result of the way
the perique is added to the blend. Because its a pressed blend it
is difficult to ensure that the perique is evenly distributed throughout
the blend therefore causing some of the bars to have more perique
than others. In a more recent conversation with Russ he mentioned
that he may try a new layering method sandwiching the perique between
the other tobaccos. Hopefully this new process will work out so
I haven't given up on the blend just yet.
In a effort so see if I could improve what I already had I decided
to try stoving both blends as described on Jason Newquist's Tobacco
Aging, Storing and Cellaring FAQ. From the options outlined
on this site I decided to try the 220/220 method (2 hrs 20 min at
220 deg) and after reading all of the comments about the different
processes I made a slight adjustment to 200/200 (2 hrs at 200 deg).
I put both tobaccos in ball jars, rubbing out the Anniversary Kake
completely. I covered the jars with tin foil and put them in the
oven for the two hours. Other suggestions on the site said to let
them sit awhile, even as long as two weeks before trying. I left
them both alone until the following day then decided to try the
Kake first. The blend was slightly different and a bit mellower
but it still really wasn't what I was hoping for and subsequent
bowls still varied some. On the other hand the Deerstalker was noticeably
better. It was smoother and the tobaccos seemed to have blended
nicely with each other. I'm sorry now that I didn't use a larger
Ball jar which means I'll just have to go through the process again
sooner. It still is not the Deerstalker I remember from the first
four ounces but it is once again a very enjoyable all day blend.
And so goes my first experience with stoving tobacco. It was an
interesting and enjoyable experiment and I recommend it to those
of you who may be interested in trying to improve any blends that
are close but don't quite meet up to your approval. You never know,
you may just end up with the perfect "stranded island" tobacco blend
you've been looking for.
On The Virtues of The Estate Pipe
I was surprised to find out that there are a few in our pipe club
who have never smoked an estate pipe! I won't refer to them
by name but we'll just call them Mreg Graniero and Frick Redericks.
I hope the following missive will convince Mreg & Frick to
give pre-smoked pipes a try. Estate pipes are a relatively new phenomenon
that the late, great Barry Levin's monthly newsletter is credited
with starting. For the first time, folks began to warm to the idea
of smoking a pre-smoked pipe. There are several factors that make
estate pipes a great option in pipe collecting/smoking: (1) The
ability to smoke a brand of pipe which has long since been extinct
and may have been so since before you were even born! (2) Estate
pipes are far less expensive than new pipes by an average of 40
to 50%. (3) If treated well an estate pipe will likely always hold
it's value. Compare that to that brand new briar you just forked
out a few hundred dollars for which after JUST one smoking will
devalue itself nearly in half! (3) If you hate to break pipes in,
rejoice in utter happiness as someone's already done the dirty work
for you. (4) If it's an especially old pipe, you will have an instant
connection with someone who lived long ago and smoked that pipe.
It's kind of neat to wonder who they were as smoke curls up over
your head...
By recommending to you that you should smoke an estate pipe I'm
not simply saying that you should buy some dirty old piece of wood,
fill it to the brim and light it up. I'm saying that once properly
cleaned an estate pipe will be every bit as sanitary as any sitting
in your racks. It's usually best to send them out to a professional
for a complete rejuvenation. For especially filthy pipes the pipe
cleaner starts out by washing the pipe with a mild cleanser. He
then scrubs out the shank with bristle brushes, pipe cleaners and
a strong alcohol like Everclear. Then the carbon is trimmed down
in the bowl and it's wiped out with alcohol too. The stem is then
buffed on a wheel using Tripoli polish to remove oxidation as well
as teeth marks and scratches. Then the bowl is polished with carnuba
wax to bring back it's luster. If the pipe has a plateau top, a
wire brush is used to remove any darkening or built up "crust" which
might be present.
I'd like to extend an invitation to Mreg, Frick and anyone interested
the opportunity to smoke a thoroughly cleaned estate pipe and would
happily clean one myself for them free of charge. I won't even say
"told ya so" afterwards...
Best to all,
Dock J.Perry

Feb 10, 2006
DocuWare has introduced DocuWare 5, which supports all forms of Electronic Signatures, designed to make secure online access to file cabinets possible from anywhere in the world, and integrating mobile users into a company's workflow processes.
Once DocuWare 5 has been installed on a mobile client, the user is able to take advantage of the full range of DMS features, even offline. By synchronizing information out of the central document pool with a file cabinet stored locally on the notebook computer, the user can tap into project materials, customer files, and client data with the click of a button--even while traveling. DocuWare 5 documents can be searched without a connection to headquarters as well as annotated/edited and then stored anew. Steps in work processes can be completed away from the office. With the next synchronization, any work completed will automatically be integrated in the workflow and then sent to other colleagues in the process. Via the Internet, a DocuWare 5-client can access any of the file cabinets stored at headquarters from anywhere in the world. The only thing that needs configuring is the correct IP address on the client.
DocuWare now supports both Advanced and Qualified Signatures that meet EU guidelines. In addition to individual, personal signatures, DocuWare 5 also supports Mass Signatures and Electronic Time Stamps. Many smaller enhancements in the details, such as in the DocuWare Viewer or the process for configuring search and store windows, have increased the comfort level for the user. All administrative tasks are captured in a hierarchical tree structure. And just like a client user, the DocuWare Administrator can now use the Internet to manage remote installations.

Gulbis is a genuine maverick, who estimates he breaks up to 70 rackets a year and who once spent a night in jail for allegedly soliciting prostitutes in Stockholm. But for one day only the notorious volatile tendencies were kept on a leash as the 23 year-old fired down 30 aces and hit 62 winners en route to a remarkable 7-6 (7-5), 7-6 (7-4), 7-6 (7-4) victory against Berdych.
"I'm well-known for my mental strength," he quipped, drily. "Ask around." In truth, the fighting qualities of Gulbis have frequently been called into question since he reached a French Open quarter-final aged 19, only to fall off the radar amid rumours of indiscipline and brattish behaviour.
As the son of the third richest man in Latvia, he used to travel to junior events by helicopter and never wanted for the finest coaching, but the dominant 'power tennis' he showed here betrayed a renewed commitment.
With a first-serve percentage edging above 80 and his returns consistently deep, Gulbis broke down Berdych's defences remorselessly. In the second-set tie-break, he grasped the initiative with a lethal return to force an error from the Czech, before whipping a forehand down the line to set up three set points. The third followed a similar pattern, with Gulbis not so much as blinking with another casual forehand for match point, which he converted when Berdych deposited a return into the net.
Gulbis, now working with Austrian coach Gunther Bresnik, was asked if he had felt any nerves. "No, nothing, zero," he replied, with typical insouciance. "My concentration was up and I really kept going. If I hit the ball well, I hit it stronger than everybody else."
John Isner, the huge-serving American, might like to dispute that assertion, but the 19th seed was in downcast mood after losing in five sets to Alejandro Falla. In a tight contest dominated by serve, it looked briefly as if the match would have echoes of Isner's unforgettable epic against Nicolas Mahut two years ago, but he was eventually broken in the fifth as the Colombian concluded a 6-4, 6-7 (7-9), 3-6, 7-6 (9-7), 7-5 win.

LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - Beyonce's lips remained sealed on Wednesday over her headline-making rendition of the U.S. national anthem at President Barack Obama's inauguration, leaving others to do the talking over whether she lip-synched to a pre-recorded track.
Celebrity magazine Us Weekly quoted a source saying the Grammy-winning artist was disappointed by the controversy she stirred by singing "The Star-Spangled Banner" at Monday's solemn ceremony using a backing track - and drew a comparison to late Italian opera singer Luciano Pavarotti.
As some of America's singing stars offered sympathy and understanding, an inaugural official, who declined to be identified, told CNN that Beyonce "did not sing live."
"Because she didn't have time to rehearse with the U.S. Marine Band, she decided to use her recording with the Marine Band," the official told CNN on Wednesday.
The U.S. Marine band said in a statement on Tuesday that no one in the band "is in a position to assess whether it was live or pre-recorded."
Us Weekly meanwhile quoted a different, also unidentified source, as saying "She did sing, but used a track."
"She didn't think there was anything wrong with it," the source told the celebrity magazine's website on Wednesday.
"Pavarotti has done it! It was freezing out, and if she messed up just one note, that would have been the story ... Everybody uses these tracks, and the music director advised it," the Us Weekly source added.
Pavarotti lip-synched his last performance, at the 2006 Winter Olympics in Turin, because of the bitter weather and his failing health, according to orchestra conductor Leone Magiera in a 2008 book. The Italian tenor died in 2007 of pancreatic cancer at age 71.
Beyonce's publicist has declined to comment on the furor, but Aretha Franklin and Jennifer Lopez chimed in with their support.
"When I heard the news ... that she was pre-recorded I really laughed," Franklin, 70, who sang live at Obama's first inauguration in 2009, told ABC News.
"I thought it was funny because the weather down there was about 46 or 44 degrees and for most singers that is just not good singing weather ... she did a beautiful job with the pre-record ... next time I'll probably do the same."
Lopez told Jon Stewart on "The Daily Show" on Tuesday that many performers resort to using pre-recorded tracks.
"You know, sometimes it happens," Lopez said. "When you're in certain stadiums and in certain venues, they do pre-record things because you're going to have that terrible slapback."
Beyonce, 31, was giving her first major public performance since giving birth to a baby in January 2012. On Sunday, she had posted on Instagram photo of herself in a recording studio holding the sheet music for "The Star-Spangled Banner."
She is due to take the spotlight again next month by performing, live, at the February 3 Super Bowl halftime show.

There are only a handful of 100% varietal Bordeaux Cabernet Franc producers. And Paradise Rescued is proud to be one of them. And despite our very strategic Vision focussed approach to our wine business, becoming a leading promoter for the amazing wine varietal Cabernet Franc wasn't in that picture.
In fact, until almost the last minute, we thought that our first vineyard block was a Merlot block! As I tell the story in Chapter 2 of my new book "It's Not About the Dirt", despite the last minute advice, we didn't really have an option. If we wanted to help sustain our village and maintain the heritage around our own corner of that village, there was no other choice but to go forward. And then use the unique qualities of Cabernet Franc as a full varietal wine to create a very different single block wine product in the Bordeaux market.
Of course today there is no doubt. The unmistakeable and beautiful taste that is Cabernet Franc is clear for all to taste in our B1ockOne and Cloud9 wines. The combination of Bordeaux climate and soil combined with loving hands on organic viticulture has delivered an amazing taste from inside one of the world's leading wine producing regions.
Cabernet Franc is the subtle force in Bordeaux assemblage wines. Often overlooked in favour of its two genetic children Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot, Cabernet Franc adds class, perfume and easier drinking. It is often the smaller part of a Bordeaux wine composition but when tasted as a 100% varietal, it is easy to see why it's influence and blending into a more full-bodied wine provides such a difference.
In a world that currently favours (but now slowly starting to change) big full-bodied wines, Cabernet Franc is a moderator and enhancer, toning down the heaviness and tannic approach of big Bordeaux wines. With a taste that is closer to the expressive charms and delicate taste of Pinot Noir than Cabernet Sauvignon, it is easy to see why its influence is starting to grow back.
With a Bordeaux Cabernet Franc, gone are the often acidic and green tastes found in similar wines from climates where achieving full ripeness is an annual or seasonal challenge. In comes a wine that is very expressive with a young cassis flavour moderating to ripe soft cherry with age. Aided by oak maturation, there is no lack of subtle complexity, all topped off by the Cabernet Franc signature finish. Its spicy seemingly endless length makes it a perfect food and 'drink on its own' wine.
It wasn't quite where we wanted to be. Nor how we wished to get started. But happily we took advantage of the cards handed to us in order to create something so rare and different in the vast wine vat that is Bordeaux.
And now we are very very proud to be Bordeaux Cabernet Franc. Onwards…
