Laguna Beach
Laguna Beach is a resort-residential community (population about 20,000) along the Pacific coast in South Orange County in Southern California. It is known for its extensive artist community, seaside village atmosphere, beautiful beaches, and luxury resort hotels. Fans of the Beach Boys will recall the mention of the city in the song "Surfin' Safari". In warm sunny weather, Laguna Beach can have an overwhelming Mediterranean-island ambiance. Laguna Beach attracts a few million visitors a year.
Laguna Beach lies along the coast of the Pacific Ocean with a ridge of hills bounding its eastern edge. The main road is Pacific Coast Highway, also referred to as Coast Highway, Highway 1 and PCH.
North Laguna This is the area from about High Street north to the city line at Crystal Cove State Park. This stretch of Coast Highway has a few restaurants and shops, but is main residential (large gated communities) with entry points to secluded beaches.
Main Beach / The Village This area fans out from Broadway, a street that becomes Laguna Canyon Road (CA 133, a main artery into Laguna Beach). To the north is the famous Gallery Row area and oceanfront Heisler Park. To the south is the village area with shops and restaurants. Broadway ends at Main Beach, with its boardwalk and popular sandy beach area.
South of Main Beach This is the long area from about Cleo Street south to Aliso Creek Beach. This stretch of Coast Highway contains a lot of shopping, restaurants, hotels and entry points to secluded beaches. Residential neighborhoods slope up the hills.
South Laguna This is the area from Aliso Creek Beach south to Crown Valley Parkway. It contains cliff side beaches, some restaurants and shopping, a hospital and residential properties.
Get in[edit]
By plane[edit]
Orange County's John Wayne Airport, also known as SNA, [16] is only about 15 miles from Laguna Beach. From SNA, you can get to Laguna Beach by one of several ways: rent a car and drive (most popular), take a taxi (about $50), take a door-to-door shuttle (about $30) or limo, or take the OCTA [see Orange County Transportation Authority below] bus #76 ($2.50, runs hourly) to the Newport Transportation Center and transfer there to the OCTA bus #1 that runs to Laguna Beach via the Pacific Coast Highway. All of these modes may be found at the SNA's Ground Transportation Center across the street from Terminal A and B, with the exception of the OCTA bus #76, which is boarded at the OCTA Bus Stop at the far end of Terminal B curbside.
By car[edit]
Laguna Beach is located along the Pacific Coast Highway (CA 1) at the "T" intersection of Laguna Canyon Road (CA 133), which becomes Broadway in town. When arriving on summer nights during Pageant of the Masters performances expect a lot of traffic along CA 133 and plan extra time to get into town.
From John Wayne Airport, you can take either Interstate 405 (to the north) or CA-73 (to the south and partway a toll road) to get to CA-133 and south to Laguna Beach. Alternatively, you can drive south from John Wayne Airport to Newport Beach and pick up CA-1 to Laguna Beach.
By rail[edit]
Amtrak and Metrolink stations are located in Irvine, Laguna Niguel, San Juan Capistrano, and San Clemente. From there it will be necessary to take public transportation or a taxi.
Get around[edit]
Laguna Beach is a linear town stretched along the Pacific Coast Highway (CA 1) punctuated by several canyons. In town, Broadway (CA 133, which becomes Laguna Canyon Drive out of town) divides the Pacific Coast Highway into the North Coast Highway and the South Coast Highway; address numbers increase outward from Broadway, with odd-number Coast Highway addresses on the ocean side.
By public transit[edit]
The FREE Summer Shuttle Service is a four-line service to accommodate locals and visitors going to the Pageant of the Masters, local art festivals, etc. Beginning in late June through the end of August, the four Summer shuttle routes operate seven days a week from 9:30AM to 11:30PM Frequency 30 minutes.
By car[edit]
Although a car may be convenient, parking is at a premium in the summer; beware of having your car towed. You'll probably have to pay to park downtown in beach weather. The cheapest option is parking in the residential areas on the other side of Pacific Coast Highway, although you risk begrudging the residents. If you are trying to get downtown a good place to park is the district parking lot just across from Laguna Beach High School. From here you can take a short walk into town. Lot prices in the summer range from $7 - $15.
See[edit][add listing]
Do[edit][add listing]
There is very good scuba and skin diving in Laguna. Diver's Cove is in north Laguna.
CAUTION: Laguna is notorious for its shore breaking waves which cause countless neck and back injuries year round. Checking with lifeguards about the conditions is alway a must if you are thinking about going out in the water for your first time.
Buy[edit][add listing]
The sales tax here is 8.25%, .5% higher than all other Orange County cities.
Eat[edit][add listing]
There are a wide range of options for dining in Laguna Beach. The high-end restaurants and inexpensive options are mixed together both in the village core and along PCH. Most restaurants will have their menu outside so that you can determine if the food and prices are what you're looking for.

Get out[edit]
Laguna Beach makes an excellent launching point for other activities in the area. Disneyland is 25 miles away and Hollywood is about 60 miles away. However, there are plenty of things to do in the nearby area.
South of Laguna Beach The pleasant harbor city of Dana Point offers shopping, restaurants, great surfing beaches and a family-friendly Ocean Institute with exhibits. Farther south is San Clemente with it's fine pier, famous surfing spots and more shopping and food options.
North of Laguna Beach Crystal Cove State Park offers overnight camping, gorgeous cliff side beaches and hiking. Just north of the Park is Corona Del Mar, a sleepy ocean community with good dining options. Beyond this is Newport Beach and Huntington Beach.
East of Laguna Beach The city of Irvine is vast. The Spectrum is large shopping complex near Laguna Canyon Road (CA 133) offering a wealth of shopping and dining, as well as a 21-screen theater including IMAX.

We are just days away from, for many, the best time of the season. Before the first high school football kickoff of the 2014 season, there is excitement, high hopes, optimism and the anxiousness of making memories that will last a lifetime.
It is also a time for mourning, grief, tears and memories that will endure a lifetime. Unfortunately, it seemingly has become a yearly tradition.
Long before parents, families, friends and fans make their way into a stadium, some of those people have made their way into a funeral home, church or graveside service. Later this week, high school football will start in earnest. However, we know that four players won't suit up ever again, having died after a practice session.
In Ohio, a Kent State senior also died during preseason practice.
There will be uniform patches and helmet stickers with numbers of the players who are missing, but at the forefront of thoughts.
Noah Cornuth was a 16-year-old attending New Kingston (PA) Burrell High School. In Georgia, 17-year-old Zyrees Oliver is remembered at Douglas County High School. Evan Raines was also 16 when he collapsed and later died after a Fayetteville (NC) Seventy-First High School practice. William Slogram was just 14-years-old when he couldn't recover following a Vero Beach (FL) Sebasian River High School practice.
Those situations were totally unexpected.
A day before Kent State's Jason Bitsko died, he posted a message on Twitter that gives his family and friends comfort:
"There are 86,400 seconds in a day. Make sure you use one of those to thank god for everything you have #stayfocused."
There is plenty of grief to go around, but mostly on the East Coast.
Last Saturday night, tragedy struck close to home. Sheldon Martin, who played at Jurupa Hills High School and was attempting to earn a spot on the Chaffey College roster, was gunned down in a car-to-car shooting on a freeway in Riverside County.
It was senseless, but then, what murderous shooting isn't?
What is also senseless, if not downright stupid, are those who fail to understand the impact this event has on coach Rob Hadaway's team? His teammates and coaches are hurting just as much as the teams of the other five players.
"We lost an important member to our team; he was a really special kid to this team," Chaffey teammate Anthony Purtle told our Liset Marquez. "He was really going to shine his light."
As it turns out, the circumstances surrounding Martin's situation may have further eroded the community college picture. There is a faction that still believes two-year colleges are nothing more than "high schools with cigarettes;" athletes "just don't have what it takes to play at a four-year school;" or that athletes are undisciplined and are delaying their entry into the work force.
Wrong, wrong, wrong.
The emphasis at a community college is educational, to get students ready for the next level and many are working full-time and attending school. The same for athletes. The goal for Chaffey athletics, as at all two-year institutions, is get their athletes in a position to continue their education.
It's also about building a team, to work together. That's common ground in all cases.
A team member has been taken away and the circumstances are not that important. A human being is missing and it doesn't matter how.
What is important is that these tragedies have deprived us, all of us, of the potential of these young men. Each died young, with unfulfilled dreams. We will forever wonder how much more they would have contributed to this country, what their ultimate potential would have been.
It is a hurt that will never go away.

Former Bishop of Sendai, Japan Ordains Seminarian John Culbreath-Frazier
Saturday, March 12, 2011 • Campus Ordination • By Deborah (Malacky) Belonick
During the first Memorial Divine Liturgy of Great Lent, third-year seminarian Dn. John Culbreath-Frazier was ordained to the Holy Priesthood by His Grace Bishop Seraphim (Sigrist) in Three Hierarchs Chapel. The eucharist celebration drew together not only the campus community and family and friends but also people and places representing important threads in the lives of both Fr. John and his wife, Mandy, and Bishop Seraphim.
Co-celebrating at the liturgy was Fr. William Mills of the Nativity of the Holy Virgin Church in Charlotte, North Carolina, the place where Fr. John was received into the Orthodox faith and the place where he and his wife were married. Also co-celebrating were Fr. Alexis Vinogradov, rector of St. Gregory the Theologian Orthodox Church, Wappingers Falls, New York, and Fr. Michael Plekon, who is attached to that same parish. Fr. John, with Matushka Mandy, attends St. Gregory's each Sunday, as a parish intern. Fr. Alexis, who gave the homily during the liturgy, expressed his gratitude and joy at having the couple as part of his parish community for this academic year.
His Grace Seraphim, former bishop of Sendai, Japan and seminary alumnus ('67), who met and got to know the Culbreath-Fraziers at St. Gregory's Church as well, offered prudent words to the couple following the liturgy. He spoke about two dimensions of the priesthood—poverty and service—but outside of their usual secular connotations.
Poverty, he noted, suggests something beyond material lack. "With reference to the priesthood," said His Grace, "it implies a person without a specific vocation, a person whose only vocation is to offer the world the ministry of Christ. Just as in the Book of Acts, when Peter looked at the begger and said, 'Silver and gold I do not have, but what I do have I give to you,' so the priest brings to the world what it chooses to forget, and he reminds the world of what it dare not hope for. As a priest, you will represent healing and wholeness in life."
Speaking about service, Bishop Seraphim observed that the secular mind linked service to servility. "But Christian service," he said, "implies a freely given heart—to be with others and to share with them; to learn as well as to teach. This type of service, imitating the Lord who said, 'My yoke is easy and my burden is light,' enables the Church to be the Church."
Bishop Seraphim's words about poverty and service were especially cogent: first, because Fr. John and Mat. Mandy had met and been drawn together through their life in the Church and mutual interest in community service; and, more broadly, because His Grace informed those gathered for liturgy about the devastation to his former diocese, Sendai, Japan, just the prior day, due to a massive earthquake and ensuing tsunami. "Sendai is a poorer region of Japan," the retired bishop said, "and the faithful there will need our help to rebuild churches that were destroyed by this natural disaster."
In light of Bishop Seraphim's words, Fr. Alexander Rentel, chapel ecclesiarch, asked that a special collection be taken to benefit the Orthodox faithful and all those suffering in Sendai—a fitting conclusion for a eucharistic celebration and an ordination rite that embraces the virtues of poverty and service.

text: Farmland, Homes and Hope Disappear with Rising Waters in Haiti July 17, 2013 Joseph is a truck driver from Fonds-Parisien, Haiti, who has nine children. His family has lived by Lake Azuei for generations. In the past 10 years, the lake has risen more than 10 meters and has doubled in size, from 155 square kilometers in 2004 to 354 square kilometers today. As the waters rose and began to spill over the banks, Joseph's land has gradually disappeared underwater, taking with it his home and those of his extended family. "[The floodwaters] have diminished our ability to work because we lost nearly everything we invested in this land," Joseph says in an interview translated from his native language, Haitian Creole. "Life has become much worse because we have to find a way to build other houses." Three kilometers away, in the Dominican Republic, Lake Enriquillo is also rising with no signs of stopping, and has already engulfed farmland, houses and roads. In an effort to understand the toll that the surging waters have taken, Mimi Sheller, director of the Center for Mobilities Research and Policy in the College of Arts and Sciences, joined a team studying the imperiled lakes on the border between the two countries. "Knowing what is causing the lakes to rise—whether it's a climate-related or geological phenomenon—will help officials in the Dominican Republic and Haiti develop effective mitigation strategies," says Sheller.

LOS ANGELES - The 2008 Financial Times Executive Education rankings of global providers were released yesterday. UCLA Anderson's Executive Education Programs ranked 19th worldwide and 9th in the U.S.
The FT surveys non-degree executive education programs globally, with a resultant ranking that includes 65 providers of custom executive education and 50 providers of open enrollment programs from around the world. FT derives the rankings from data that schools provide, and by talking to both custom and open enrollment clients.
UCLA Anderson ranked 8th in the open enrollment worldwide survey and among the top 10 in the "New skills & learning" and "Aims achieved" categories. UCLA Anderson custom programs were ranked 37th.
There are several rankings that address degree or non-degree programs among business schools. Each survey measures different programs or variables, and uses different methodologies. The results of this survey, along with others conducted throughout the year, provide some insights into how our programs are perceived by various stakeholders. Individual rankings are but one indicator, among many, of a program's quality and impact.

Thanks to the generosity of a newfound friend who let me borrow the book, I just finished a race through "The Devil in Pew Number Seven." To call it a race is not an understatement, since I pored over the book until I finished it in eight hours. This was not my reacting to a dare or an enticement to competition. It was purely interest-driven. I was captivated by the true story that took place in Columbus County during the 1960s.

May Johnson (Sydney, Australia) and Leah Pridgeon (Lawrenceville, Ga.) were topped by Olivera Jokic and Carolin Weikard, 8-3 at the second doubles spot.
Rounding out the scoring in doubles action was the tandem of Renata Paiva and Andrea Redrado, who took down Ivana Marevic (Rottweil, Germany) and Michelle Lingner (Dunwoody, Ga.) by a final of 8-3.
Unfortunately, the Bobcats were unable to dig themselves out of that 3-0 hole, dropping a pair of singles matches.
Redrado defeated Pridegon 6-2, 6-0 at the fifth singles position before Lingner fell at the final singles spot 6-0, 6-0 to Sandra Jung.

U.S. Rep. Joe Barton said at a hearing Thursday that he fears the Obama administration will attempt to make Energy Secretary Steven Chu the "fall guy" in response to GOP attacks on the government's loan guarantee for the now-bankrupt Solyndra LLC.
At a hearing where Chu testified under oath, the Republican from the Dallas-Fort Worth area raised the concern in the wake of emails discussing the notion of Chu stepping down. Barton said many people have asked whether he thinks Chu should resign.
"I said every time I don't think you should resign," Barton told Chu during a hearing of the House Energy and Commerce Committee's oversight subpanel. "I do think you're a man of integrity. I think you're trying to do your job as the best that you can."
In recently released emails, a former Obama adviser suggests asking Chu to resign and move elsewhere in the Energy Department, roughly a month after a controversial restructuring of the loan guarantee. A top White House aide rebuffed that suggestion in a follow-up email, as The Hill newspaper recently noted.
Chu and Barton engaged in testy exchanges over the $535 million loan guarantee to the solar-panel maker in Fremont, Calif. Republicans have accused the Obama administration of approving the loan guarantee despite having knowledge the company was struggling financially.
Chu rejected a Republican commitee member's suggestion that he apologize.
"It is extremely unfortunate with what has happened to Solyndra, and I think both you and I feel the same," Chu said, adding later that the loan decision was made "absolutely only on the merits."
He said the company suffered after the price of solar panels unexpectedly decreased by 70 percent in two years. "Fundamentally this company and several others got caught in a very bad tsunami, if you will," Chu said.
Republicans have seized on the Solyndra loan as they try to attack Obama's policies for developing alternative energy sources.
Democrats have come to the administration's defense, saying investing in renewable and alternative energy sources is crucial to reducing pollution and oil imports, boosting the economy and helping the country compete with China and other nations in renewable energy.
Chu concurred when Rep. Henry Waxman of California, ranking Democrat on House Energy and Commerce, suggested investment in renewables are "for our economic well-being but also for stopping climate change if possible."
Republicans also have criticized the Energy Department for restructuring the loan terms in February. The restructuring subordinated government debt — putting it at lower priority for repayment in event of bankruptcy than $75 million in new private-sector funding.
Asked today how much money the government could expect to recover on the default, Chu said: "That remains to be seen. I'm anticipating not very much."
Barton suggested that the restructuring might have broken the law, which he said "clearly states you can't subordinate."
Chu responded that the law "clearly states we cannot subordinate at the origination of the loan." The restructuring occurred in February, long after the loan guarantee was approved in 2009.
Republicans also have questioned whether Democratic donor and Obama fundraiser George Kaiser influenced the loan guarantee's approval. Kaiser's self-named foundation was the largest investor in the company.
Kaiser himself has told House Energy and Commerce Committee staffers he didn't push for the loan guarantee's approval. Republicans have claimed Kaiser did talk about Solyndra at the White House, pointing to recently released emails. Democrats have since accused Republicans of selectively releasing emails to bolster their claim.
Chu told the lawmakers he didn't know about the Kaiser connection when the loan guarantee was under consideration, and insisted it wasn't approved on the basis of political considerations.
Barton was skeptical.
"I believe you're being truthful when you state he never asked you about this particular loan program. I absolutely believe that," Barton said. "But it's the elephant in the room. Everybody and their dog at DOE knew who he was and knew what he was involved in.
"And we have on the record that he was in and around the White House at least 16 times in the time period the Solyndra loan program was being reviewed."

On Thanksgiving, one blessing for some of us is a large-group feast that we plan and prepare in stages for several days, if not weeks. Regardless of whether some of the guests are bringing a variety of side dishes, the head chef still has to wrestle with a turkey or two. Depending on the size this usually requires getting ol' Tom into the oven in the wee hours of Thanksgiving morning.
Others of us are thankful for a smaller party. And it is to those November celebrants we proffer this petite menu of seasonal dishes that, while "lavish," can allow us to sleep in on Turkey Day, at least till it's light out.
It may seem to flaunt tradition, but this somewhat free-form menu is designed for six (but there's plenty for eight) and eschews turkey for another type of poultry: Cornish game hens, which are a lot easier to handle and a lot quicker to roast than that 20-pound behemoth so many home cooks traditionally deal with on the fourth Thursday in November.
Seafood canapés
Some of the rye toasts are topped with marinated herring, some smoked salmon and some caviar. This offering is rather Nordic in nature, but provides an interesting contrast to our all-American main-course approach. Another plus is that you can do the toppings and toast the rye bread ahead, then put them together at the last minute.
Herb butter
6 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
3 tablespoons reduced-fat sour cream
2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice
2 teaspoons each, minced fresh chives and dill
1 jar (about 8 ounces) marinated herring, drained and cut into 16 pieces
Half of a red onion, sliced paper thin
1/3 cup thinly sliced small mushrooms (no stems)
White vinegar
3 ounces smoked salmon, chopped finely
2 tablespoons finely chopped red onions
1 ounce good-quality black caviar
1/2 ounce salmon roe
Canapés, garnishes
16 large slices rye bread or two-tone pumpernickel
Fresh chives and dill
For the butter, in a bowl, with electric mixer, cream butter, then gradually beat in sour cream and lemon juice. Beat until light and smooth, than beat in chives and dill. Add some pepper to taste. Cover and refrigerate if not using right away, bring to warm room temperature for spreading on toasts.
For the seafoods, in a bowl, combine marinated herring, sliced red onion and mushrooms. Add about 1/4 cup of vinegar and pepper to taste and stir well. Cover and let marinate a couple of hours.
In another bowl, combine smoked salmon and chopped red onion. Chill.
Chill caviars.
For canapés, heat oven to 350 degrees. On a work surface, use cookie cutters to cut each bread slice into 3 decorative shapes. Place on baking sheet(s) and toast just until they're pale gold, about 4 minutes. Remove to wire racks to cool.
To finish, spread each toast with some of the herb butter. Remove herring from marinate and pat very dry with paper towels. Arrange some herring, mushroom and onion on 16 of the toasts. Arrange the smoked salmon and chopped red onion on 16 more toasts. Spoon some black caviar on 16 toasts and top with some of the salmon roe. Arrange canapés on a pretty serving platter and garnish each with some chives and dill. Makes about 48 canapés.
Cornish hens, plus
What most of us like best about Thanksgiving turkey is the leftovers. Well, we build leftovers into this meal by providing a whole game hen per person. Use kitchen shears to cut each hen in half along the breast bone. Guests have the option of eating the whole thing or saving half for another time. If more than six accept your invitation, the hens can be halved before you serve them, and you can keep the remaining 4 halves for yourself.
Make the stuffing ahead; bring to room temperature before applying to the hens.
If you must have something green, do a spinach salad. Or some Brussels sprouts.
1 cup coarse bulgur (health food store if your supermarket doesn't have it)
2 1/2 cups reduced-sodium/fat chicken broth (or turkey broth)
1 teaspoon salt
1/3 pound bacon, cooked until crisp, fat reserved, bacon chopped fine
Two vidalia onions, chopped (about 1 1/2 cups)
1 large stalk celery, finely chopped
2/3 cup dried apricots, chopped
1 teaspoon rubbed sage
1/2 teaspoon coarsely ground black pepper
6 Cornish game hens (about 1 1/2 pounds each)
About 1 stick unsalted butter, melted
4 teaspoons sweet paprika
2 teaspoon dried thyme
One-half teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon coarse pepper
Additional warmed chicken broth, for basting
Parsley sprigs and/or curly kale pieces, garnishes for platter
3 large russet potatoes, unpeeled, scrubbed, cut into 1-inch pieces
2 large sweet potatoes, peeled, cut into 1-inch pieces
8 ounces button mushrooms (small), rubbed, stem tips removed
12 shallots, peeled, halved
12 large garlic cloves, peeled
3 large carrots, cut diagonally into 3/4 inch pieces
1 large celery root (a.k.a. celeriac), peeled, cut into 1-inch pieces
1 teaspoon sea salt
1/2 teaspoon coarse pepper
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper
3 tablespoons peanut oil, if needed
For the stuffing, in a large, non-stick skillet, over medium high, toast bulgur, stirring occasionally, about 7 minutes, until it makes a popping sound and is lightly browned. Transfer to a bowl and cool slightly.
In a saucepan, bring chicken (or turkey) broth and 1 teaspoon salt to boil. Stir in toasted bulgur. Reduce heat, cover and simmer until tender but not mushy, about 20 minutes. Drain bulgur in a strainer when tender if there's still some cooking liquid in pan. Spread cooked bulgur into a baking sheet to cool.
While bulgur cools, in a large, non-stick skillet, over medium, heat 2 teaspoons of the reserved bacon fat. Add onions and celery, stirring until onions are softened Transfer to a large bowl. Add apricots, sage, pepper, cooked bacon and cooled bulgur. Taste for seasonings.
For the hens, heat oven 350 degrees. Rinse hens inside and out; remove giblets, if any, and discard. Pat dry. Use about 3/4 cup of the stuffing for each bird. Use kitchen twine to tie up wings and legs, if desired. Arrange hens, breast side up, in large roasting pan. Brush generously with some of the melted butter. Combine paprika, thyme, garlic powder and pepper. Sprinkle some onto each hen. Tent roasting pan with foil. Place in oven and roast for 30 minutes.
Meanwhile, heat some chicken broth and when hens have roasted for 30 minutes, baste with warm broth. Re-cover, return to oven, and roast 30 minutes longer. Baste again. Roast 20 minutes longer. Remove from oven, remove foil, baste with pan juices and roast about 20 minutes longer to brown. Thermometer inserted in thickest part of a thigh should read 175 degrees. Remove hens from pan to a large platter, cover with a damp kitchen cloth, then the foil tent you used for roasting. This will keep them moist as they cool enough to cut.
For the vegetables, raise oven temperature to 400 degrees. Pour off (and save) all but a thin film of the roasting pan juices. Arrange vegetables in pan. Combine salt, black pepper, garlic powder and cayenne and sprinkle over vegetables. Roast, turning gently, but often, for about 45 minutes, until tender. If they are sticking to the pan, move the veggies aside and use a paper towel to wipe some peanut oil onto the bottom of the pan. If they are becoming overbrown, add some of the pan juices and tent with foil until about 5 minutes before they're done. Remove foil for last minutes of roasting.
To serve, on one or two platters, arrange hens (cut in half lengthwise) and surround with roasted vegetables. Garnish with parsley sprigs or pieces of curly kale.
Apple crisp
We use McIntosh apples because they're sweeter than a lot of apples, and they become meltingly tender in the oven. If you wish, try galas instead. You can do the crisp the morning of, then gently reheat after the hens and veggies are out of the oven.
1 1/2 cups dried cranberries
1 large cinnamon stick
1 1/4 cups water
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 cup firmly-packed light brown sugar
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 stick unsalted butter, cut into bits
12 McIntosh apples
Whipped cream, ice cream, warm caramel sauce, etc., for serving, optional
Heat oven to 400 degrees. Spray-coat or butter a 9- x 13-inch baking dish.
In a small saucepan, simmer dried cranberries and cinnamon stick in water for 10 minutes. Drain cranberries; remove cinnamon stick.
In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, brown and salt. Cut in butter with a pastry cutter or two knives, until mixture resembles coarse meal, toss well.
Peel, core and slice apples thinly. Toss apples with cranberries and arrange in prepared baking dish. Sprinkle brown sugar over apples/cranberries. Bake about 25 minutes, until apples are tender and top is golden. Cool somewhat on a wire rack. Serve as is or with suggested goodies. Makes about 8 servings.

Graham to introduce a guns background check bill
Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.), who has cast himself as a vocal opponent to changing the gun laws, wants to change the background check system for gun purchases.
But what exactly he wants to do and how it differs from Democratic proposals isn't clear.
(WATCH: Obama pushes for gun legislation in SOTU)
Graham's explanation to reporters in a press conference he called to discuss the topic on Wednesday: "My Democratic colleges want to expand the background check law to make us all feel that we're safer. My retort to my Democratic friends is that you can't really feel safer by expanding a broken law."
So instead, Graham said he is going to file a law to change the background check system.
"We talk a lot about new laws. We talk about the emotional aspects of gun violence," Graham said. "We don't seem to be doing very much in the real world to deter people."
Graham pointed out that he owns an AR-15 and that he saw the movie Django Unchained and likes Quentin Tarantino, saying that violence in video games are also part of the problem.
"We're going to have a flood of gun legislation that's going nowhere," Graham said in his summarizing appeal. "We're going to vote. People like me are going to go back to South Carolina and say I stood up for your Second Amendment rights. And my friends on the other side are going to go back to their districts and say, 'I tried to do something about rampant gun violence.' And we're all going to be talking to our bases. And at the end of the day this problem doesn't get any more solved if all we do is talk."
He added, "I just don't know how much we at the federal level can do to create a solution to a very complicated problem where it is part of our constitutional right to own a gun."
Asked for details on the legislation he said he'll file next week, Graham had none. He was clear on a few things: It's not what Democrats have proposed. It isn't a universal background system. And it doesn't close the gun show loophole.
But while assailing the Democrats for being "cheerleaders" for gun laws, he did say he will look at a federal registry for the mentally insane, and merging state and federal systems used and he thinks the mentally insane should be prevented from purchasing weapons at gun shows, which Democrats support.
"My belief is universal background checks are going to require universal registry of weapons," Graham said when asked about closing the gun show loophole. "My belief is that's the wrong road to take."
Graham's call for change came with a poster complete with a gun villain titled, "Alice Boland Gets a Gun." The South Carolina senator used her as an example throughout his press conference.
Graham went through a lengthy timeline outlining how Boland plead not guilty by reason of insanity after threatening to kill the president in 2005 and then nearly eight years later was able to complete a background check in South Carolina and purchase a weapon.
Boland then took the gun to a school in January 2013 where she attempted to shoot a teacher but because it didn't contain a chambered round, the gun didn't fire. She was then charged with attempted murder.
If there was one thing Graham was clear on, it was that he thinks the existing laws should be enforced. He criticized the current administration for not prosecuting enough people who fail background checks, saying the 80,000 people who were prevented from buying a gun last year was enough because the federal government didn't follow up by prosecuting them.
Graham argued that since those who were denied guns through background checks might have been able to buy guns elsewhere, either legally or by trying different stores, federal officials should prosecute those who fail the checks.

PHILADELPHIA, Pa. - Yale made sure the effects of a heartbreaking loss to Penn in the first game of a doubleheader didn't carry over to the second game. The Bulldogs scored the first nine runs of the game and held on for a 9-5 victory over the Quakers to earn a split. Katie Yanagisawa, Ashley Sloan, Aracelis Torres and Mariclaire Rebman all had two hits for Yale. Anna Puglisi's RBI single in the bottom of the eighth inning lifted Penn to a 4-3 win in the first game.
The Bulldogs (11-9, 1-1 Ivy) took a 2-0 lead in the third inning of the second game. Yanagisawa singled, stole second and scored on Sloan's double. Megan Enyeart followed with a two-out, RBI single.
Yale manufactured a run in the fourth. With two out, Courtney Blachford reached on catcher's interference. She then stole second and scored on Yanagisawa's single up the middle.
Tracy Timm's pinch-hit RBI single highlighted a three-run fifth inning, and the Bulldogs took advantage of four Penn errors to score three more times in the sixth. Nicole Wolfe drew a bases loaded walk to force home one of the runs.
Penn (12-8, 1-1 Ivy) scored three runs in the bottom of the sixth and then added two runs in the seventh. The Quakers had the tying run at the plate, but Taylor Tieman grounded out with the bases loaded to end the game.
Rebecca Wojciak went the distance in the circle for the Bulldogs to earn her fourth win of the season.
Penn had 11 hits in the game but left 15 runners on base.
In the first game, Katie Edwards hit a two-run home run in the second inning to give Yale a 2-0 lead. It was Edwards' fourth career homer at Warren Field. Enyeart's two-out RBI single in the sixth made it 3-0.
The Quakers, though, scored twice in the bottom of the sixth and then tied it in the seventh on Christina Khosravi's RBI single.
Alisha Prystowsky started the winning rally in the eighth by singling to right with one out. Bridget McDugall then walked and Puglisi followed with the game-winning hit.
KR Ling pitched the first six innings for Yale and allowed only one earned run. She was the beneficiary of some fine defense. Yanagisawa made a diving catch to snare Prystowsky's liner in the second, and Sloan made a fine running catch in centerfield to take a hit away from Kelsey Wolfe in the fourth.
Jessie Lupardus struck out nine in eight innings to earn her 10th win of the season for Penn.
The Bulldogs are back in action on Sunday when they play a doubleheader at Columbia beginning at 12:30 p.m.

Pancreas Transplantation
Some patients with type 1 diabetes have experienced positive results from pancreas transplants. Typically, part or all of a new pancreas is surgically implanted. The old pancreas is left alone; it still makes digestive enzymes, even though it doesn't make insulin. Most organs are obtained from someone who has died but has decided to be an organ donor.
A transplant of the pancreas is usually reserved for those with serious complications. Pancreas transplants are most often done when a patient also receives a new kidney. The pancreas transplant adds little further risk in this situation and offers big benefits. However, transplant surgery is risky. Each person needs to carefully weigh the potential benefits and risks.
Benefits of Pancreas Transplants
- You may be able to maintain a normal blood glucose level without taking insulin.
- Many of the diabetes-related side effects are prevented or delayed.
- Most people with nerve damage who receive a pancreas transplant do not get worse and sometimes show improvement.
Downsides to Pancreas Transplants
- The body treats the new pancreas as foreign and the immune system attacks the transplanted pancreas.
- Transplant patients must take powerful immunosuppressant drugs to prevent rejection of the new pancreas. Drugs that suppress the immune system can lower resistance to other diseases, such as cancer, and to bacterial and viral infections.

In preparation for a Turkish black-eyed pea dish that I'll be featuring soon, I made this Middle Eastern blend of spices, seeds, herbs and nuts. I am running out of room for all the homemade blends that I make, but I can never resist in any case. Widely used in the Middle East and North Africa, dukka — also spelled "dukkah" or "duqqa" — is a wonderfully tangy, zesty and salty blend of dry roasted nuts and seeds with herbs and spices that's surprisingly hearty on its own. Often served for breakfast with bread after dipped in olive oil, this delicious blend can be enjoyed for a snack, lunch, dinner or whenever you please. Consider adding it to salads, with your vegetable dishes or included in your favorite dipping sauce. The possibilities are endless.
I did some research and came up with my own recipe for dukka based on ideas I found from A Life Time of Cooking and Kevin of Closet Cooking. Dukka will keep in the refrigerator in a sealed glass jar for several months. Your pulse should be rather coarse. Enjoy the aroma while making this blend, and try the exotic flavor just on its own.
Sumac is the dried fruit of a temperature shrub ground to a powder and used extensively in Middle Eastern and Turkish cuisine. You can easily find it in any Middle Eastern or Asian grocer.

Macensi Wittenborn got a good night�s sleep before she returned to Summersill Elementary Tuesday morning.
Macensi Wittenborn got a good night�s sleep before she returned to Summersill Elementary Tuesday morning.
But that doesn�t mean she wasn�t anxious.
�I was a little nervous and excited. I was just a little scared to be in a new classroom,� the 10-year-old fifth grade student said.
Macensi was just one of 24,535 students who were in Onslow County Schools on Tuesday. On the first day of school for the 2012-13 school year, there were 24,071 students, according to school officials.
Macensi said she had a fun time in Onslow County, Virginia and Indiana with her family over the summer and, while she was a bit sad to see summer end, she was also happy to return to school, math and her friends. She said it�s fun to learn different ways to solve problems, and she�s looking forward to doing experiments in science and social studies this year.
The experienced elementary school student said that younger students shouldn�t be too nervous because �they�ll meet new friends and maybe they�ll have fun.� She also warns that they shouldn�t argue back with their teachers or say things they aren�t supposed to � and that they should follow instructions in class.
Savion Young was excited to return to Hunter�s Creek Middle School where he�s in eighth grade despite having a good time at leadership camp in Maryland at the beginning of August. He said he is looking forward to a school year full of National Junior Honor Society, Academic Derby, basketball and helping others in the community.
Savion said he was nervous about how his teachers would react to him after his attending the Junior National Young Leaders Conference was announced in The Daily News on Aug. 18.
�I have heard a lot of people had seen me in the newspaper,� he said, explaining that people were proud of him and had cut out the clipping.
Emily Macon, who is also in eighth grade at Hunter�s Creek Middle, said that she was a little �anxious� about school Tuesday so it was easy to wake up and get to school.
�I was happy to see all my friends I haven�t seen since June,� she said.
Emily said she read a lot over the summer though she couldn�t remember the titles.
�I remember I was sucked into them,� she said.
The eighth grader said that sixth-grade students shouldn�t be nervous, among other words of advice, about middle school.
�Don�t get on anyone�s bad side. Just be yourself and don�t get on the bad side of any teachers,� she said.
Emily said that when she went to sixth grade she tried being someone she wasn�t and ended up getting into trouble. She said she returned to her normal reserved behavior for seventh grade.
�And now I�m just me,� she said.
Sixth grade is the next step for Jaedah Hines, who returned to Summersill Elementary for fifth grade Tuesday and said she�s looking forward to middle school. In the meantime, Jaedah was ready to get to math class.
�I think it pushes me forward. � It makes me go farther. If I don�t know something, I push myself just to get it,� she said of her favorite subject.
Jaedah said she had a fun summer going to the beach and spending time with her family, which included trips to the library and math-related games, but she was ready to get back to school.
�I think this school is really fun and being in fifth grade, I feel older,� she said.
Shayla Palmer, a fourth grade student at Summersill Elementary, said her first day of school was going well and she was enjoying getting to know new people. Shayla said that she enjoyed summer and visiting her grandmother in California, where it was hot, but she was glad to be back in the classroom.
�It�s so boring without school. You get to do fun things and learn fun things,� she said.
And this year, she�ll get to learn fun things with the help of technology. Summersill Elementary is one of 19 POD schools where parents are able to send personally owned electronic devices to school with their children to be used in the classroom. The schools will also issue devices to students as necessary.
�It�s kind of weird for me to bring electronics to school,� Shayla said. �I�m not really an electronics person. I like to go outside.�
Shayla said she likes running and tends to take notebook outsides to write down what kind of animals and plants she sees.
�I went outside one day and I saw a black widow. But I didn�t touch it,� she said.
And while she�d rather play outside, Shayla said she is looking forward to using electronics in class because it�s something she hasn�t been able to do before.
Interim Superintendent Ron Singletary said he began visiting schools at 7:30 a.m. Tuesday and, while he didn�t expect to visit them all on the first day, he was pleased with how the beginning of the school year was going.
�We�ve got excited kids � they seem eager to be back,� he said while visiting Summersill.
Singletary said that on top of new students, the system also has many new teachers who are �excited to be a part of this team.�
Onslow County Schools Public Information Assistant Suzie Ulbrich said that transporting children to and from school �went as smoothly as can be expected for the first day of school.�
�Traffic dropping off students was a little heavier than it will be,� she said. �We heard there were parents who drive their students today as they were unsure of the bus stops, but now that they�ve seen where they are those children will be on the bus.�
She asked that parents be patient for the next few days while parents and staff alike get used to the drop-off and pick-up process.
�It always takes a few days to make all the adjustments,� she said.
Parents can also help school get started on the right foot by making sure their students get enough sleep, do their homework and arrive on time, Ulbrich said.
�We encourage parents to stay in communication with teachers. Talk to your children about their day, spend time with them and give them an opportunity to talk about their fears and their triumphs,� she said.
Parents also have the opportunity to keep up with their student�s attendance and progress through Home Base, a statewide instructional improvement and student information system that is being used this year. The program will allow students to access schoolwork and learning activities, administrators to monitor data and teachers to access student data, as well as teaching and learning resources.
�For the most part, the Home Base start up was successful,� Ulbrich said. �There were some complaints that it was slow and anytime you are learning a brand new program it�s going to take time and patience � This is going to be a good tool.�
Ulbrich said that reports from schools were positive.
�Students and teachers were excited about opening day and happy to be back,� she said. �School offices were bustling � children were still being enrolled, students forgot things, and parents had lots of questions � but everyone was smiling. Most of the schools are seeing increased enrollments. In the classroom, it was calm �students and teachers were ready to get down to business.�
And among those ready to get to work was Emily.
�I�m happy to be back,� she said.

|This tattered
document played a major role
in one of the most famous court cases in United States history: the case of Myra Clark Gaines, fought
through local, state and federal courts for nearly sixty years, all told. The litigation arose from Mrs. Gaines'
claim that she was the legitimate daughter of Daniel Clark, businessman, landowner, U.S. Consul in New
Orleans during the last years of Spanish rule, and the Territory of Orleans' first delegate to Congress. If she
won her case, Mrs. Gaines would inherited enormous wealth and property – property constituting, in fact, a
large portion of what is today New Orleans' Central Business District.
The will shown here was written in 1811, two years before Clark's death. But Gaines claimed that Daniel
Clark had written a second will shortly before he died in 1813, naming her as his only legitimate child. This
all-important second will, she argued, had been destroyed by Clark's business associates to protect their
own interest. It was the 1811 will shown here, however, that was admitted to probate in New Orleans,
setting off an impossibly complicated legal proceeding that ended, ultimately, with the U.S. Supreme Court's
decision in Gaines' favor (after the court changed its mind several times). But by the time of the Court's final
ruling in 1891, attorney's fees and other debts had eaten drastically into Clark's estate, and Mrs. Gaines'
heirs (for Myra Clark Gaines herself died before the suit was finally settled) got very little.

Huffington Post blogger urges parents to welcome fornication at home
Teens are going to "do it" anyway, so why not keep them "safe" at home, where parents can teach them how it's done?
So suggests Soraya Chemaly in a Huffington Post blog entry titled "How Do You Feel About Sex and Teenage Sleepovers?"
The self-proclaimed feminist argues it's time for Americans to join Europe in adopting looser morals and a more open dialogue about sex, especially among teenagers.
"I recently picked up Alain de Botton's 'How to Think More About Sex,'" Chemaly writes, "which generated a very interesting conversation with a car full of teens about how they are taught to think about sex. Why not teach children, I suggested, how to have sex well, the way you teach them how to do other things?
"This, for the record," she admits, "horrified my children, but intrigued their friends."
Chemaly explains she was prompted to discuss the idea after homosexual humorist Henry Alford penned a New York Times column called "Sex in a Teenager's Room?"
Though Alford admits he has no children, he claimed he would permit a 16-year-old daughter to have a boyfriend stay the night, but a 14-year-old? No, that would be too young.
Chemaly, on the other hand, didn't set a specific age limit in her column.
"Would you rather teach your kids that sex is dangerous and forbidden or that it is permissible and … well, awesome?" she asks. "It seems logical to me that the same way I try to teach my kids to exercise, sleep well and be good people, I would teach them to have healthy sex and sleep with other good people."
Chemaly sets up a dichotomy in her column between parents who fall into either the "responsible-sex-is-good" category or the "scare-them-silly" category.
Nowhere does her column address the biblical position of marital sex as both "responsible" and "awesome," but fornication as sinful before God and hurtful to the people involved.
Chemaly's column, in fact, contends forbidding sex is part of the problem, and abstinence-based sex ed – which she describes as "slut-shaming" and "homophobic" – only pushes teens to explore their sexuality without meaningful parental instruction.
"Why would you create a situation where your children are forced to hide, sneak around, be dishonest, be uncomfortable, take unnecessary risks and make uninformed decisions about their physical and emotional health?" she asks.
After all, she concludes, if you don't talk to your kids about sex, it just sends them and their questions to pornography, where they naturally get all the wrong answers.
"Parents have more influence on what their kids think and do about sex than teachers do," Chemaly posits. "Parental attitudes, it turns out, are far more influential and meaningful."
Therefore, she concludes, for teaching teens how to fornicate, there's no place like home.

Russell Crowe and his wife Danielle Spencer have separated, according to Australian news reports.
The Sydney Morning Herald reports the split is amicable.
The Oscar winner and singer Spencer wed in 2003 and have two sons, Charles, eight, and Tennyson, six. The couple first met 22 years ago on the set of the movie The Crossing. Crowe, 48, is currently filming Noah in the U.S. while Spencer is at home in Sydney with the couple's boys.
As rumors of the split surfaced late on Saturday, Crowe was co-hosting The Indoor Garden Party with pal Alan Doyle at the Gramercy Theatre in New York.
The "Gladiator" star, who is a frequent Twitter user, has yet to comment on the break-up stories – his last posts focused on Saturday night's music and comedy concert and his cycling and work-out regimen.
Hours before news of the split leaked, he wrote, "yesterday 11.6km bike ride to work, 30 mins (minutes) yoga, light weights today so far 14.5 km stat bike, 20 mins light weights."

text: May 29, 2014 at 6:02 AM Poll: Should Gorge concertgoers pay surcharge to help Quincy hospital? Posted by Thanh Tan Once again, three days of intense partying at the Sasquatch! music festival led to a surge in patient visits to the little emergency room at Quincy Valley Medical Center. Hospital Chief Executive Mehdi Merred said a preliminary count as of Thursday indicates 116 patients were admitted to the ER over the Memorial Day weekend — 56 or 57 of them came from the Gorge Amphitheatre. On an average day, the hospital sees about 10 patients. Still unknown is how many of this year's patients skipped out on payment or lacked health insurance. "Some say they have insurance, but it turns out they don't," Merred said over the phone, adding that some Sasquatch! attendees-turned-patients also come from Canada. "There needs to be some reconciling of information before we finalize the numbers." As The Seattle Times editorialized on May 24, many of the Gorge's concert attendees are young adults who've been slow to sign up for the Affordable Care Act. Their choice to not be covered could leave local taxpayers in the Quincy area with a huge bill. Last year, the hospital reported $400,000 in uncompensated care and additional staff time. Live Nation, the operator of the Gorge, has refused to help defray the costs. Here's a solution that should be considered by the Legislature: State Rep. Matt Manweller, R-Ellensburg, is crafting a bill that would add a $1 surcharge per ticket for shows at the Gorge. The proceeds would be split between the Quincy hospital and the local fire department. It's a good idea. Live Nation should support Manweller's plan. If Sasquatch! attendees could afford a ticket that costs more than $300 a pop, they should be able to cough up an extra buck to offset the price of partying a little too hard. Do you agree with this idea? Vote in the poll below. Take Our Poll More Comments | Topics: drugs, hospital, music festival
