I haven't announced a new chapter of my occasional series, It's A Vegan World, for a few months now because I've just been too busy at work and home. So when Graziana of Erbe in Cucina offered to host it in April, and even suggested a cuisine– French— I jumped at the chance to revive it.
I had considered a French edition of IAVW before but hesitated because veganizing French cuisine can seem a huge challenge to anyone. When I picked up a copy of Julia Child's Mastering the Art of French Cooking at a yard sale years ago, I thumbed eagerly through it hoping to find at least something that I might be able to veganize. I gave up because, honestly, it seemed almost impossible to pare down all the animal-rich ingredients in there.
But now I think I am ready to dust it off and thumb through it again.
I might not be alone in my fear of cooking French food. Although often simple and stark, the cuisine of France seems daunting to any cook who's new at it, perhaps because it occupies such a hallowed place as one of the world's most luxe cuisines. Just the minute attention to detail and technique is enough to drive an otherwise accomplished but time-pressed cook to throw in the apron and call for Chinese takeout.
Besides, it does seem to include a lot of meat and dairy products. But it also includes lots of fresh vegetables and lentils. And when you think back on all those French recipes you've run into, you're bound to think of something that can easily be veganized or is even vegan to begin with. Ratatouille, for instance.
So toss aside those inhibitions and all those ideas about doing things just so and get cooking. We are not trying to win the Michelin stars here…we are just trying to make some healthy, wholesome, delicious food that we'd love to sit down to after a day's hard work. And have some fun while we're at it.
Here are some Web sites to help you get started:
I also came across this book of vegan French recipes, in case you want to check it out of your public library. And one of my favorite TV chefs to watch, Jacques Pepin, often demonstrates French recipes that are both simple and vegetarian or easily veganized.
Don't forget to look up the event announcement page at Graziana's blog with the guidelines, and to send her your recipes. The only thing you need to remember is that it has to be vegan– if you have any concerns about whether a certain ingredient qualifies or not, think about whether it involved some animal or insect. Honey, fish, milk, eggs, gelatin are NOT vegan, and not allowed.
I'll see you around.

Toyota Repair Problems? Ask a Mechanic for Answers ASAP
Hello and welcome to Just Answerif the engine isn't cranking then first check it can turned over by hand by using a socket on the crank pulley nut, so double checking for any mechanical issues
If OK then check that the main battery cables are on tight and the terminals are clean and bright. Do the same for the engine / gearbox earth strap.
Then follow the main positive lead back to the engine and down to the starter motor, and check the connection at this end as well.
There should also be a small wire to the motor which should have 12V when you're turning the ignition switch/ pushing the start button to crank. If the 12V isn't there, check back along this wire for damage to the insulation or corroded connections
This 12V feed comes directly from the ignition switch/ starter button so this may be faulty and need replacing
Check the resistance of the main positive lead that runs down to the motor as anything more than a few ohms and it should be replaced
Don't forget to try a jump start from another car / battery as its possible the battery is poor, if you have a voltmeter a healthy battery should read 12.7+V
also try substituting the battery for another as I've known a very flat battery to drag down the system voltage too far even with jump cables
one other thing to consider is that the immobiliser is faulty and preventing the starter from being enabled - however if the dash / ignition lights are on then this usually means that its off
If this is all OK then its possible the car needs a new starter motor
Hido you still need help?Bear in mind that the site takes a deposit from you at the beginning and this is held by the site until you rate my answer at which point the cash is split between the site and the expert. I am only paid for my work on this question if you rate my answer, using the star system at the top of the screen. Please do not forget! If you're not pleased, also let me know because rating bad does not result in a refund, there are better options. Rating now will not close this post nor prevent further repliesThanks Matt

green cars of austin needed a new logo design and created a contest on 99designs.
A winner was selected from 162 designs submitted by 55 freelance designers.
Our design task involves the combination of a unique logo and business card designs. The contest guidelines include the obvious 'think green', but also must be as far removed from the 'status quo car dealer' business model. Colors and font will be important. We are also undecided on a tag line so any/many suggestions are welcome!

Our pricing is pre-set and 1 price (no back and forth haggling).

- Item 1...The logo/business card contest should include the obvious---think 'green'---from colors to font and format.

- script should be all lower case with the (possible) exception of my name and title which could read "Trent McClure, President"
- Font size for "green cars" should be larger than that of "of Austin"
- Must be very innovative and unconventional yet organic, cheerful, welcoming, and professional
- For business card---a front anc back that includes the following info:
- green cars of austin

- austin, texas 78745
- 512.555.1978 p
- 512.555.0727 f

Oh, goody. It's 13F time, when mere mortals like us get to see how the big boys rolled the dice in the last quarter.
Among the highlights, Soros Fund Management increased a bear-call bet on the S&P 500 in a huge way. The fund lifted a put position — a bet the market will go lower — on the S&P 500 ETF /quotes/zigman/714403/delayed /quotes/nls/spy SPY to its biggest size yet, in terms of value and portfolio percentage, making a 605% leap over the previous quarter.
Bullion Baron, who has long kept a beady eye on Soros's SPY moves, has summed up the latest dealings. He speculated that this could be a hedge — or Soros is really worried about something. One possible something is China, which the hedge-fund titan referred to as a global uncertainty earlier in the year, notes the Baron.
Soros also lifted positions in Apple and Facebook and a portfolio loaded up with stocks, so he can't possibly be all that gloomy. As for that China unease, WSJ's MoneyBeat reports that China bears are entrenched and see stocks headed for a big fall. One strategist says it's not good to see that stocks there have been rallying on both good and bad economic news.
"In [a] market frenzy, it is difficult to keep a cool head. But if things don't add up, it will eventually fall apart," Hao Hong, Bank of Communications international strategist, tells MoneyBeat.
Now the only problem here, says the Baron, is that if things go pear-shaped in China, that's not great news for equity markets anywhere, especially those at overvalued levels. Just a reminder, the 13Fs are from the second quarter so for all we know Soros has changed his mind completely since then.
In the short term though, it seems global managers are willing to place their bets on Wall Street. What IG's Chris Weston hears among some institutional funds, he says, is that with Europe pinned down by Russian worries and growth problems, most think U.S. stocks are a pretty good bet, at least for the short term — three to six months.
"From a relative-growth perspective, the U.S. is significantly outperforming Europe, corporate earnings have been good. From a geopolitical standpoint … where do you go to invest right now, with bond yields so low? The belief is that the U.S., on a relative basis, is going to outperform," says Weston.
He says if you'd asked him three months ago what his biggest worry was, he would have said a 10% drop for the S&P 500, due to a major rise in 10-year bond yields. "That's clearly not going to happen anytime soon," he says.
Recent data from Bank of America Merrill Lynch data shows fund money poured out of Europe in this week, into Japan and China, with modest flows into the U.S.

We're in phase 3, he says, which is credit down, equities up…credit bull market is over, spreads start to rise as investor demand for rising leverage ebbs. But equity bull market carries on as profits and CEO risk appetite keeps going.
Phase 4 is where we're headed: Classic bear market, where equity and credit prices fall in tandem, collapsing profits, worsening balance sheets are a hallmark, insolvency fears for credit market, profit warnings for equities.

I recently happened across a description of alchemy, that delightful pseudo-science of the last millennium that evolved into modern chemistry. For a moment I thought that the authors were instead describing the current state of the art in game design.
Every time I sit down with a finely crafted title such as Tetris or Super Mario Brothers, I catch hints of a concise and clearly defined structure behind the gameplay. It is my belief that a highly mechanical and predictable heart, built on the foundation of basic human psychology, beats at the core of every single successful game.
What would happen if we codified those systems and turned them into a practical technique for designing games?
Historically, the process of understanding games has been limited by numerous factors ranging from messy experimental practices, spiritual reliance on untested theories of play, and confused terminology. We are still alchemists of our trade, mixing two parts impure story with one part polluted game play with three parts market voodoo.
As an industry, we need to beyond the mystical hand waving that defines modern game design. It is now possible to craft, test and refine practical models of game design built from observable patterns of play. We can describe what the player does and how the game reacts. Recently, we've begun to crack open why players react to certain stimuli and are able to create models that predict pleasure and frustration.
This essay will describe into one such model.
Diagram 2: Condensation polymerization of Nylon,
(a substance not available to alchemists)
The bigger hope is to move our alchemical craft towards the founding of a science of game design. We currently build games through habit, guesswork and slavish devotion to pre-existing form. Building a testable model of game mechanics opens up new opportunities for game balancing, original game design and the broader application of game design to other fields.
The advent of basic chemistry gave us tools to build a new world of technologies far beyond that imagined by our alchemist forefathers. Plastics, engines, fabrics, power sources revolutionized our lives. It is a worthy effort to crack the fundamental scientific principles behind the creation of games.

If you use Apple's Mail app for OS X and have multiple accounts set up, you may have noticed some lagging issues, particularly if you're running Lion or Mountain Lion. I have been experiencing severe issues where Mail.app takes several seconds to catch up with what I am typing or performs poorly when loading messages which results in excruciatingly long wait times. One of my colleagues shared an interesting piece with me by Brett Terpstra that fixed it for me in just a few steps:
There was a tip on Hawk Wings long ago which showed how to speed up Apple's Mail.app by vacuuming the SQLite3 index. I hadn't tried it since Snow Leopard, but I was having some serious issues with the time it took to open a Mail folder on my Air, so I thought I'd give it a shot.
The problem seems to lie with the database of Mail, which is what houses all your messages and other information about them. With a simple terminal command, you can vacuum out the envelope index which should speed up the Mail database significantly.
I tried it on both my iMac and my MacBook Air and the results were pretty good. I can now tab through messages much more quickly, mass delete things without hiccups, and type emails without Mail lagging behind me.
Hit the link below to grab the command and try it for yourself. There's also instructions on how to set up an automatic script so you don't have to run it each and every time mail slows down. Let me know how it works for you!

The Bisons open a three-game series with Murray State Friday at 4 at Ken Dugan Field at Stephen L. Marsh Stadium. Senior right-hander Josh Smith, a preseason All-Atlantic Sun selection, will start the opener. Senior right-hander Matt Bowling will be on the mound in the second game Saturday at 2. Sophomore right-hander Davey Hackett will get the call Sunday at 1.
The pitching staff is under the direction of assistant coach Tyler Shrout who is also making his debut with the Bisons this weekend.
Shrout is confident that Smith is going to give the Bisons a chance to win against any team in the nation. Smith is the only returning starter from last year's weekend rotation. He is making the transition to the No. 1 pitcher in the rotation.
"Pitching won't change for Josh," Shrout said. "They are the same hitters whether you are facing them Friday or Saturday. The biggest difference will be not letting the hype and emotions of pitching on Friday night get to him.
"He is what he is. He is a competitor. He has wanted the No. 1 spot. I think it is his time to shine."
Bowling has been both a starter and a reliever. He throws in the upper 80s to lower 90s with a good breaking ball and changeup. Shrout has stressed to Bowling the necessity of not giving up big innings as a starter.
"Matt has always had the stuff," Shrout said. "Between the ears he has matured. He just has to get out of his own way on the mound and just pitch instead of trying to make a perfect pitch every time.
"If there is a walk or an error or he gives up a couple of hits he has to understand damage control. If he gives up one or two runs that is fine, but don't give up four or five."
Hackett may be the biggest surprise this season. Shrout likes Hackett's mechanics and thinks he has the talent to be a solid starter.
"Hackett has gained some strength and improved his ability to locate pitches," Shrout said. "He has wanted velocity all of his life. But we have got him using a two-seam with a lot of run on his fastball. His stuff has gotten better. I will match him up with anyone else's No. 3 pitcher."
Sophomore right-hander Dannie Strable, a junior college transfer, will be a fourth starter and could also find his way into the weekend rotation. He throws from 85 to 88 on his fastball. He also can be effective with both his breaking ball and his changeup.
"Dannie is a three-pitch guy," Shrout said. "He is going to need all three of his pitches to work.
"He only has one year under his belt. I see him being our first long reliever the first couple of weekends. He will bridge the gap to our closer. He will start in mid-week games. It wouldn't surprise me if he finds his way into the starting rotation."
Shrout is working with 15 pitchers. Only five are returning from last year's staff. Smith and Bowling are the only seniors. The depth in the bullpen is expected to take some pressure off of the starters.
"Only having five guys returning is good and bad," Shrout said. "We are definitely young, but this is going to allow them to create an identity that is different from last year's and more importantly is part of my philosophy.
"They were wide open to trying new things. It has been good. They have created an identity of competing. That is the one thing I demand of them _ to compete with what they have got that day."
In addition to Strable, there are some additional choices in the bullpen. Junior college transfer Alex Ross is a left-handed reliever. Two freshman left-handers, Chris Nunn and Blake Fonfara, are going to get some time on the mound as relievers if they show they can consistently throw strikes.
Mike Grace, a junior college transfer, is a right-hander who has gotten stronger since arriving at Lipscomb. Sophomore right-hander Josh Cotham will also be competing for innings after bouncing back from an injury.
Right-hander Chad Fromm, another junior college transfer, is going to serve as the primary closer.
"The closing role is Chad's to lose," Shrout said. "He has the prototypical makeup of a closer. He competes on every pitch. He is a little animated on the mound, but he doesn't let the emotions affect him.
"He is an upper 80s to lower 90s guy with an above average swing-and-miss breaking ball. He is a typical high velocity swing-and-miss closer that we have not had before. Hopefully, he will be seen twice on a weekend. We are going to use him as much as his arm will allow."
In addition to the depth in the bullpen, Shrout also thinks the Bisons will be more of an offensive power.
"We are going to hit a lot better than last year," Shrout said. "I think we are going to field it better.
"The margin of error is not one or two runs like it was last year. We might give up some runs early, but our pitchers have to compete and give us a chance to win."

Zimmerman hits 3 HRs, but Davis leads O's over Nats
Baltimore, MD – Chris Davis finished a perfect 4-for-4 with two homers and three RBI to offset Ryan Zimmerman's first career three-home run game, as the Orioles utilized a six-run seventh inning to outlast the Nationals, 9-6, in the first of a two-game interleague set at Camden Yards.
Nick Markakis added a solo homer and two RBI and Steve Pearce contributed a two-run shot as part of the game-changing seventh inning for the Orioles. Manny Machado and Ryan Flaherty also drove in one run in the victory.
Baltimore reliever Steve Johnson (1-1) earned the win after replacing starter Chris Tillman in the fifth with the Orioles trailing 6-2. Tillman lasted 4 2/3 innings, allowing six runs on eight hits, including four homers and all three of Zimmerman's shots.
"I thought Stevie's (Pearce) home run kind of brought us back," Orioles manager Buck Showalter said. "But probably the key outing was Johnson. That's going to be over looked."
Zimmerman homered in his first three at-bats and finished with four RBI. He became the second MLB player on Wednesday to go deep three times, joining Chicago Cubs catcher Dioner Navarro, who had three home runs in a 9-3 victory over the White Sox.
Washington starter Jordan Zimmermann (8-3), who was looking to become the MLB's first nine-game winner of the season, was charged with a season-high seven runs and 10 hits over six-plus innings to absorb the loss.
Roger Bernadina hit a solo homer and Denard Span drove in the other Washington run. The clubs split a pair of games in D.C. over the previous two days.
Baltimore ended Zimmermann's night in the bottom of the seventh. Trailing 6-3, the O's exploded for six runs thanks to five consecutive hits allowed by Zimmermann and reliever Tyler Clippard.
Flaherty smacked a leadoff single and Pearce came through with a two-run homer, making it 6-5. Nate McLouth then reached on an infield single before Machado plated him with an RBI double to left to tie the game at 6-6. That would be the last batter for Zimmermann.
Clippard entered the game looking to stop the bleeding, but he too ran into immediate trouble. Markakis hit a run-scoring single up the middle to give the O's a 7-6 lead.
Clippard forced Adam Jones to fly out to deep center, but Markakis alertly tagged up from second on the play. Davis rounded out the Baltimore rally with a punishing blast to center, his second of the game, which not only expanded Baltimore's lead to 9-6, but brought the home crowd to its feet.
"We always have a chance," Johnson said. "That's what's so great about this team. We always have a chance to come back."
Fittingly, Zimmerman opened up the scoring in the first, launching a two-out, solo shot to left-center to give the Nationals a 1-0 lead.
The Orioles tied the game at 1-1 in the second on Flaherty's RBI double down the right-field line, scoring Davis.
Washington stayed hot in the fourth with back-to-back homers. Bernadina opened the frame with a blast past the right-field foul pole and Zimmerman followed with his second homer, crushing Tillman's high fastball to dead-center for a 3-1 Nationals lead.
Not to be outdone, Davis added his first homer in the home half, a solo bomb to center, closing the hosts' deficit to 3-2.
The Nationals continued to attack Tillman in the fifth and eventually forced the righty out of the game.
Danny Espinosa, playing for the first time since May 22 after the team announced he had a broken bone in his wrist, reached on J.J. Hardy's throwing error at short and Span brought him home with a double to make it 5-2.
Zimmerman again figured out Tillman two batters later, smacking an opposite field homer to right for his third of the game, giving the Nats a 6-2 advantage.
Markakis joined in on the home run derby in the sixth by opening the frame with a homer to right-center, cutting the Orioles' deficit in half, 6-3.
Zimmerman headed into his fourth at-bat in the seventh having gone 3-for-3 with three homers and four RBI, but was fanned by Johnson.
Jim Johnson earned his 16th save of the season with a perfect ninth.
Game Notes
Zimmerman joined Adam Dunn (July 7, 2010) and Alfonso Soriano (April 21, 2006) as the only Nationals to hit three homers in one game ... The Orioles have won eight of the last 10 meetings at home in the series ... It was the first time since April 21 that Zimmermann didn't last past seven innings. He also entered the game allowing 3 runs or less in 15 consecutive starts overall -- which was good for the longest such streak in the majors ... The last time two players homered three times in one day came on Oct. 30 of last season by Dan Johnson of the White Sox and Evan Longoria of the Tampa Bay Rays.

It's letting up. But it's not over.
The National Weather Service said this morning that the intense rain activity that has deluged Boulder this week and triggered a 100-year flood event is finally loosing its grip on the immediate region.
Showers will remain intermittent through the day today, with about a 50 percent chance of rain, which could still bring another inch to Boulder, on top of the 14-plus inches that already have fallen since Monday, said meteorologist Kari Bowen.
"There will still be some (additional) flooding potential with it," Bowen said of today's expected rain.
Boulder has, in fact, been under a flash flood watch since 7 a.m.
There is a glimmer of good news in the forecast, with Saturday's rainfall potential slipping to about 30 percent, some periods of sunshine expected with temperatures expected to reach 75, after today's predicted mid-60s.
But then things turn less promising, with a new wave of southerly moisture expected on Sunday, with rainfall potential back up to 70 percent, and temperatures slipping back into the mid-60s. When that rain hits, the high water dangers will be renewed.
"There's a chance for flooding with this," Bowen said of Sunday's forecast. "We have saturated ground in a lot of places, we have rivers and creeks that are over their banks. We can't take a whole lot of rain, without more flooding and flash-flooding potential. If we feel the need to put out a warning, we will do that."
Meteorologist Matt Kelsch said that as of 7 a.m. today, Boulder had registered 14.62 inches of rain at the official measuring station on Broadway, south of Baseline Road. And the city's most recent 24-hour total, also ending at 7 a.m., was 5.20 inches.
"Our total for the year is 27.61 inches, and the record year is 29.93 in 1995, so even if for the rest of the year we only have half the average precipitation, we would make that record," said Kelsch.
"It's remarkable," Kelsch added. "We have set the records for daily totals, monthly totals, and we haven't just set them, we smashed them. Precipitation of this caliber would be unusual in a tropical area. It would be considered unusual if you were in New Orleans. So, to happen in a semi-arid place like Boulder is really remarkable."
Despite the fact that Boulderites will see glimpses of sun today, and more on Saturday, it is not cause to attempt any form of recreation near the water, Bowen said.
"People need to be aware that just because the sun comes out, it's not time to go exploring. These creeks can still rise very quickly, so we want people to use precautions," she said.

The Catholic Worker Movement, often described as a rag-tag effort to live out the Gospel precept of love of neighbor, has returned to Davenport, Iowa.
Michael Gayman, decided to purchase a house and offer hospitality after spending more than two years with a Catholic Worker community in California and deciding to return to eastern Iowa to be closer to family.
Barb Arland-Fye, editor of the Catholic Messenger, newspaper of the Davenport Diocese, reports that it's been 20 years since a Catholic Worker house has been open in Davenport.
The house will be named the Oaks of Mamre Catholic Worker. Its name is connected to the story in Genesis (18:1-16) in which Abraham extends generous hospitality toward three strangers, not realizing that one of the three is God. Abraham's compassionate act occurred near the great oaks of Mamre.
"We aim to keep alive hospitality as an ancient sacred code of conduct," Gayman said in a letter to friends. "We will be offering food, and a place to rest along life's journey."

First off dont get me wrong, whoever one chooses to love is certainly their business, and I have no problems with inter-racial couples. I myself have dated outside my race in the past, and would have no concerns about doing so again. However, truth be told I would love to find a sista, (woman of color-from wherever) who was atheist,or at the very least maybe spiritual but not religious. Talk about needle in the haystack! Maybe one that actually lives in my city, or state (we all cant relocate). Usually w/ sista's upon hearing my belifes, or lack thereof, 'the party's over". Which is not a bad thing I, since I certainly could not deal with the whole xtian mindset, customs yatta, yatta. I am not a god-fearing man and am very proud of it! At the same time there seem to be more white women for whom it is not a concern. So would I be settling? I mean, you fall in love with, who you fall in love with. Maybe I just feel my sista's eyes already rollin at me, just for the thought of it. But hey, a brotha cant wait "forever" for yall to come around.
Not patiently waiting.
Views: 1934
if you are brave enough to be an atheist in Texas then your brave enough to handle whatever path true love leads you to, and anything else this life can dish out for that matter.
Brava. Well said Naomi. I think one of the issues in finding atheist women of color, which cirkus-frk got to was the taboo of a black woman and or another WOC calling herself an atheist. There are few things that afford us privilege and being a Christian is one of them. For a sista to be an avowed atheist is a social risk many may be scared or unready to take [both within the community and society at large].
Ultimately J.Muntu, I think someone who is strong in her non-theistic beliefs and a personality and values match, regardless of color would be a better match for you than someone who can simply tolerate yours.
Best of luck to you!
Thank you, I definitely agree, but in the mean time... Lol!!! I feel like a damn monk. In the sence that I feel bound not to have what I want. Now I'm as optomistic as the next person, heck even more at times, but I feel as if every woman that I'm attracted to is christian. then when I do find a atheist/agnostic, I feel like there's so much more pressure at least initally, since it is so rare that it happens. Then I'm always dissapointed due to us not being compatible in some way or many many miles apart. I imagine when I do finally find her out ther she will have been worth the wait (I know I am :) but damn will I be 80 or what! Lol!!!
Have a good one.
Love is love, period. If you find and fall in love with an atheist/ non-believer/ skeptic who is not black then so be it! I'd rather you be with this type of woman as opposed to being with a religious black woman who will more than likely refute your beliefs and/or try to "change" you (as a black woman, I HATE when other black women swear up and down that they can change a man!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!).
My last relationship was with a dark-skinned non-believer (at that point in time, neither of us deemed ourselves as atheists. I realized that I am one after we broke up, however, religion was never an issue). Frankly, I am only open to dating other atheists, non-believers, and maybe a guy who is spirtual but not religious. Theists need not apply- AT ALL. Not sure if I'll find another black man who meets that standard here in New York, although I'm not really looking.
Good luck with the sistas, Mr. Muntu and the other brothas on this thread. We're not all religious assholes.

Macfarlane to enter Missouri Sports Hall of Fame
KANSAS CITY -- It was about 26 years ago that Mike Macfarlane was driving across the country to Baseball City, Fla., where the Royals were encamped, with his bride, Kathy.
Macfarlane was still getting over shoulder surgery, so it was important that they would stop along the way for a little practice.
KANSAS CITY -- It was about 26 years ago that Mike Macfarlane was driving across the country to Baseball City, Fla., where the Royals were encamped, with his bride, Kathy.
Macfarlane was still getting over shoulder surgery, so it was important that they would stop along the way for a little practice.
"Part of our honeymoon was driving to Florida for Spring Training and playing catch with her. She was a girlie-girl and we'd go to a high school field in Texas or Louisiana, driving across those states," Macfarlane said with a laugh. "Our first marital spat was how bad her soft toss was."
Kathy Macfarlane must have done something right because her husband developed into the most durable catcher in Royals history and a highly respected 13-year Major Leaguer. That will be recognized Jan. 26 at Springfield, Mo., when he's inducted into the Missouri Sports Hall of Fame.
That comes 15 years after Macfarlane wrapped up his career in 1999 with Oakland.
"Anytime you get recognized with such a tremendous honor, you're kind of like, 'Really?'" Macfarlane said.
But he wasn't forgotten.
"It's really an honor to be inducted," Macfarlane said. "I know people say that, but when something comes out of the blue like that, you're genuinely shocked to a certain extent and asking yourself about the worthiness of your credentials. But the further away you get from the game, you tend to look back and say there were some things you try to stay humble with but, you know what, that wasn't too bad."
It sure wasn't. He caught more games, 798, than anyone in Royals history. No one else is even close (Brent Mayne is second with 620). Macfarlane was a superb handler of pitchers, excellent on defense, hit with power and was a team leader.
In fact, he was so respected that when after his first eight years with Kansas City he signed as a free agent with Boston, he was away for just one season before the Royals brought him back for two more years.
"I was so fortunate early in my career in the last couple of years in the '80s to play with George [Brett] and Frank [White] and Willie [Wilson], established veterans, and learned to catch from the likes of Bob Boone," Macfarlane said. "And then the pitchers here in Kansas City that I had a chance to work with, from Jeff Montgomery, who is my closest friend, to Sabes and Goobie [Bret Saberhagen and Mark Gubicza] and those guys that helped mold who you are as far as a game-caller and everything else."
Macfarlane had some impressive moments himself, including 20 home runs in 1993, a two-homer and five-RBI game in 1991, and throwing out 15 of 36 basestealers (42 percent) in '91. He could also take one for the team, being hit by pitches 97 times in his career.
His 2014 class of inductees in the Missouri Sports Hall of Fame also includes Bob Kendrick, president of the Negro Leagues Baseball Museum in Kansas City. Kendrick is saluted for making great progress in stabilizing the institution co-founded by the legendary Buck O'Neil.
Also in the class of 15 is former Cardinals outfielder Willie McGee.
"I played with Willie in Boston in '95 and what a class act he was," Macfarlane said.
Briefly an analyst for ESPN, Macfarlane these days concentrates on the operation of Mac-N-Seitz Baseball and Softball, a training facility in Kansas City. His partner is another former Royals star, Kevin Seitzer, who's just been hired as the Blue Jays' hitting coach.
"Kevin and I are awfully busy. Kevin with his success as a hitting coach leaves some of the duties on me during the spring, so I'm busy with that," Macfarlane said. "And chasing four kids -- my youngest is now a sophomore in high school, so I'm getting older than dirt."
He's 49 and he and Kathy have four children -- Megan, Austin, Allie and Ryan.
"I'm just a huge Royals fan -- to a fault," he said.
As a former catcher, Macfarlane keeps close watch on Royals All-Star catcher Salvador Perez.
"I like everything about him, just love him. I would've loved to have played with him, I would've loved to have caught behind him," Macfarlane said.
"My last couple of years playing [with the A's], being a mentor to Ramon Hernandez, A.J. Hinch, some of those young players and catching the likes of Tim Hudson. Those are some of the things that you look at that were kind of special and to think you had a part in their successful careers. You look at what Salvador has done at such a young age, how he's still humble, still respects the game and still plays it the right way. He's got a lot of old school in him."
Just like Macfarlane.

European Commission - Press release
Bisphenol A: EU ban on baby bottles to enter into force tomorrow
Brussels, 31 May 2011 - Baby bottles containing the substance Bisphenol A (BPA) have to be removed from the shelves in stores across the European Union tomorrow, as a ban on the placing on the market and import into the EU of such products enters into force. The ban is foreseen in an EU directive (2011/8/EU) adopted in late January. The industry has been withdrawing voluntarily from the market baby bottles containing BPA. On March 1, the EU had banned the manufacture in the Union of baby bottles containing BPA.
John Dalli, Health and Consumer Policy Commissioner, said: "June 1 is a milestone in our efforts to better protect the health of EU citizens, in particular the health of our children. Due to the fact that there are uncertainties concerning the effect of the exposure of infants to Bisphenol A, the Commission deemed it both necessary and appropriate to take action. The aim is to further reduce the exposure of the most vulnerable part of our population –i.e. infants"
What is BPA?
BPA is an organic molecule that is used in the manufacture of polycarbonate plastics, which –in turn– are used to manufacture plastic materials, such as baby bottles.
Traces of BPA can be released from plastic containers into the food they carry –infant formula in the case of baby bottles– if these containers are heated at high temperatures.
During the first six months of the infants' lives, exposure to the substance is the highest, especially if infant formula is the only source of nutrition. Also, during this period the infants' system builds up and does not have the capacity to eliminate BPA.
In 2010, France and Denmark had taken national measures to restrict the use of Bisphenol A. France focussed on baby bottles only, while Denmark targeted also other food contact materials intended for children.
The Commission asked the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) to assess the new scientific evidence and EFSA delivered its opinion in September 2010. It concluded that Bisphenol A is safe up to a daily intake of 0.05 miligrams per kilo of bodyweight. The exposure of all groups of the population is below this limit. However, EFSA also raised some questions about the possible impact of BPA on infants, and concluded that more robust data on the areas of uncertainty are needed.
In January 2011 the Commission adopted Directive 2011/8/EU, which provides for a ban prohibiting the manufacture in the EU of baby bottles containing BPA (March 1) and a ban on the placing on the market and import into the EU of such products (June 1).
The provisions on BPA are now included in Regulation (EU) No 10/2011 on plastic food contact materials amended by Regulation (EU) No 321/2011.

hi everybody, i'm italian and i'm writing my first cover letter ever...could someone help me and check it for errors? ps: i still have to write the last paragraph - that will be more specific about my thesis and the master course program - cause i'm not graduated yet all comments are welcome!!
"Dear Sir or Madam,
I am writing in order to apply for the Master Programme in Molecular Biotechnology at the --University. I gained my Bachelors degree in Biotechnology at the --. I became aware of the possibility to take a Master Programme in Molecular Biotechnology in the --University after a strenuous Internet research, trying to find a challenging, open-minded university environment.
I think my qualities, such as creativity, determination and passion for what I am studying, put together with the characteristics of your university, like a high quality education and an international orientation, would foster my ability to develop complex projects and to work in a team, which I already experienced through my academic studies as well as my voluntary work in the Red Cross Association.
I chose this Master Programme because it combines biotechnology with molecular biology - quite different fields complementing each other very well; as my degree project shows, Im very interested in .
[this is the unfinished paragraph]
I hope that you will consider my application and view me as a favorable candidate for this program.
Yours sincerely,"

Bestfriends, 'A-Sides' – Free MP3 Download
Nick Scalise and Gregory Shanahan of Bestfriends have taken a hands-on approach to creating their breed of indie-pop-electronica, and they've carved out a niche in the genre. The Chicago-based pair have a vision, and they ensured its realization by taking complete control over their 2012 self-titled EP. Not only did they write and perform the six-track EP, but they also produced, mixed and mastered it. They even directed a couple of accompanying music videos.
Their distinct vision has paid off, resulting in songs like 'A-Sides,' which we're offering as today's free download. It's a fun, poppy tune ready-made for summer, reminiscent of the joy that emanated from Cults' 2011 debut album. But Bestfriends offer a fresh interpretation, with vocals that give a hint of R&B, a la Mike Posner.
Although 'A-Sides' is undeniably a dance track, Scalise told Diffuser.fm that the wrappings contrast the song's message.
"A-Sides is a nostalgic summer indie dance jam," he said. "There comes a point where you have to decide what defines you as a person. Success? Love? Power? Are you willing to sacrifice one of those for another?"

Carols That Swing
I'm sitting at my computer getting into the Christmas spirit despite the grey November weather thanks to a fine CD that has just landed on my desk.
Jazz for Christmas, featuring the Winnipeg version of the Bob Watts Trio (Bob Watts, drums; Bert Johnson, piano; Bob 'Moose' Jackson, bass) is different than most seasonal CD's in that the group has ignored the usual candidates (Let It Snow, The Christmas Song, Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas, etc.) in favour of nine traditional carols.
In their press release they claim this is the only jazz CD out there with such a repertoire.
Whether that's true or not, they've made these tunes – everything from God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen to What Child Is This – swing.
The familiar melodies are there, beautifully rendered, but what makes the recording soar is the superb improvisational work of Bert Johnson, a young Winnipeg pianist who completed his Masters in Music (jazz piano) in 2009 at the University of Manitoba and now teaches at the Manitoba Conservatory of Music and Art.
The good news is you don't have to travel to the frozen prairie to catch this material live. In fact you can hear it this Sunday, December 4 (7:30 pm) at St. Phillips Anglican Church in Oak Bay, where Watts, with the Victoria version of his group, has been offering monthly jazz vespers concerts for over a year.
Tom Vickery takes the piano seat this week and is sure to serve up his own tasteful renderings of these charts backed by the solid work of Watts on drums and Ross MacDonald on bass.
I can't think of a better way to ease into the Christmas season. And you should be able to snag the CD at the concert as well to carry you right through December.

Robert Mau was born in Mortsel, and studied Latin, Greek and architecture. He began his career working as an architect, sculptor, painter and illustrator. In the early 1950s, he was an illustrator for De Katholieke Digest, for which he also created the comic 'Tante Zulma'. His comic 'Snoppeke & Kozijn' for Kerkelijk Leven remained unpublished due to a flood at the publishing firm Halewijn in Linkeroever.
Pits en Kaliber - De verloren safari
Starting in 1959, he made illustrations and political cartoons for 't Pallieterke, and in 1959 he started a collaboration with magazine Iris/Ons Land ('Piet Velo en Tony', 'De Pagadders'). In that same year, he created his first important comic series, 'Pits en Kaliber', that was published in albums by Algemene Pers, Heideland, Het Goede Boek and Het Volk, as well as in the magazine Ohee.
Kari Lente - De Tiran en het Varken
In 1962, his best-known, Franquin-inspired comic debuted: 'Kari Lente'. This series about an adventurous girl journalist and a remarkable animal called Slurfie was first published in Gazet van Antwerpen on 12 July 1962.
Pits en Kaliber - De verloren safari
Later on, it also appeared in Het Belang van Limburg and Het Friesch Dagblad. Several albums were published by among others De Standaard in Antwerp, and later Knorr and Born, where the series started under the title 'Klarinet & Co'. 'Kari Lente' ran in Gazet van Antwerpen until 1994.

Apache TomEE bills itself as being Apache Tomcat with the web profile baked in. This means that it behaves mostly like Tomcat.
While reviewing the TomEE container adapters, I noticed that there is a lot of overlap with the Tomcat adapters. I'd like to recommend that the TomEE adapters build on the common module in the Tomcat adapters rather than having a completely separate implementation. Doing so has the following benefits:
We'd like to encourage either the Apache Tomcat, Apache TomEE or both teams take the lead on the Tomcat adapters. We're happy to host the Tomcat adapters in their current location, but we'd also be perfectly happy to contribute them to the Tomcat project (or some joint project). Ideally, the adapters would be be released in sync with the container releases (this has worked well for AS 7).
The goal for this thread is to start the conversation and share viewpoints about the future of these adapters.
