25 Great Grilled Vegetable Recipes
Grilled Sweet Potato Wedges with Dipping Sauces
Use either unpeeled sweet potatoes or russet potatoes for these easy grilled potato wedges. Cook wedges in boiling water first to shorten grill time. Serve with Creamy Chive Sauce or Honey Sesame Sauce.
Grilled Vegetables with Summer Hollandaise
Grilling asparagus and Broccolini over dry heat concentrates their sweetness and adds a delectable smoky flavor. Making the sauce in a blender means there's no fear of it separating.
Grilled Zucchini with Mozzarella and Dill
A summer veggie, cooked in the summer way: on a grill! Lemon juice, crushed red pepper and fresh dill add more punch to the zucchini.
Grilled Tomato Melts
Gooey Monterey Jack cheese bubbles inside fresh tomatoes, while chopped sweet peppers and toasted sliced almonds add crunch.
Grilled Asparagus & Arugula Salad with Shaved Parmesan
Warm asparagus wilts the peppery arugula and melds all the flavors in this grilled salad. Use Parmigiano-Reggiano from Italy and fresh squeezed lemon juice for the best flavor.
Vegging Out Grilled Mushrooms
Smoky cheese holds grilled eggplant, onions and pepper together, and portobellos form "bread" for this hefty meatless sandwich.
Grilled Green Beans with Shallots
Wrapped in a foil packet, fresh green beans--seasoned with onion, soy sauce, basil, mint, sesame seeds and your choice of nuts--grill alongside your entree.
Grilled Green Tomatoes with Garden Herb Salad
This recipe is perfect just before the beginning of tomato season and just as it ends. Grilling the tomatoes gives them a smokiness that complements their natural tanginess.
Grilled Potato Packets
Slice russet potatoes and combine with sweet peppers, onion and fresh parsley for Grilled Potato Packets. Foil packets trap steam that cooks the potatoes.
Grilled Sweet Onions
Onions wrapped in foil steam to juicy perfection when cooked on your grill. The recipe comes from a Naperville, Illinois, reader, who says the onions turn out tender and sweet.
Veggie Bread Salad
Quarter red, yellow or green sweet peppers; remove stems, seeds and membranes. Thread small tomatoes on skewers. Slice Italian bread. Brush all with olive oil. Place on grill rack over medium coals. Grill peppers 8 to 10 minutes or until tender and browned; grill tomato skewers and bread slices 2 minutes or until tomatoes are softened and bread is toasted, turning all once during grilling. Cut peppers into bite-size pieces and bread into cubes. Toss veggies and bread with torn romaine, some Parmesan cheese and Italian dressing.
Fire-Roasted Dilled Potato Medley
Make this colorful potato medley with yellow-fleshed potatoes, carrots and onions. Roasting-pan cooking gives grilled potatoes a rich, nutty flavor.
Grilled Squash and More
Brush Italian dressing on squash, onion and mushrooms for a zesty herbed-vinegar coating.
Pesto Rosemary Skewered Baby Potatoes and Carrots
Veggie kabobs are a fun way to serve summer vegetables. Rosemary makes a fancy skewer for baby potatoes and carrots, but you can use metal or wooden skewers, if you prefer.
In our picture, veggie kabobs are on the left and center of platter. To the right of the veggies is a skewer of Grilled Pork Tenderloin Spiedini, an oregano-and fennel-marinated main dish. (Spiedini is Italian for skewers.)
Pesto Rosemary Skewered Baby Potatoes and Carrots
Grilled Ham and Corn Kabobs
Fresh apricots make a surprise appearance in this skewered main dish -- perfect for a barbecue. Brush a mixture of apricot nectar, honey, lemon juice and mustard on the grilling kabobs.

Get to know Ryan Reeves, Associate Professor of Historical Theology.
Gordon-Conwell-Jacksonville was founded in 2006 at the impetus of a committee of alumni pastors in Jacksonville and other church leaders who wanted to bring our commitment to educational innovation, academic rigor and faithfulness to the Gospel to students already engaged full-time in ministry or the marketplace. Initially an extension site of the Charlotte campus, Gordon-Conwell-Jacksonville is now our fourth campus.
The Jacksonville location, which graduated its first class in 2010, offers three ATS-accredited degrees: the Master of Divinity, the Master of Arts in Christian Thought, and the Master of Arts in Christian Leadership. Its adult learning format, modeled on that of the Charlotte campus, emphasizes both hands-on training and in-class learning.
Classes are offered on weekends, evenings and in one-week intensives, and students can secure a Master of Divinity (M.Div.) degree entirely through weekend classes. Students also couple academic learning with practical ministry experience by partnering with a professor and a seasoned Christian leader through apprenticeship at a local church.

No, I actually love them. The reason is I can bash them so much, and it's easy because I see the whole story.
You seriously hate the C's i love it
Look, the two most annoyng fan bases in the world are:
1) New York Yankees. I have met plenty who belive if the Almighty Himself went up against a New York team, He would lose.
2) Boston Celtics: They live exclusively in the past.
I suppose we are in contention for #3. but that isn't the point. In my life, I have known in person, plenty of #1's and #2's. I won't deal with the New York fans in this thread. I actually like the Knicks, a lot, and have always respected them. To me, the Lakers Knicks rivalry 1970-73 was incredible, two wonderful teams. I will have no problem if the Knicks turn it around and start winning titles, hopefully not against us.
I came in at the tail end of the Lakers Celtics rivarly. I was in 7th-8th grade in 1967-69 when we lost our last two series to Russell's teams. It was at this point in my life I hit puberty, well ahead of my classmates, and enjoyed an incredible height advantage. I was one of the best basketball players at school, for awhile, until they caught up to me. No one could get a rebound away from me. No one could stop me by the basket. One of my good friends, and a better player, was a big Lakers fan. If not for him, I may not have become a Lakers fan, hadn't really heard of them, I was more into the Dodgers and the Angels. I didn't even watch the Lakers on TV or listen to them on the radio until 1969-70. So, the last two losses to Boston were something I just read about in the newspaper, as usual. What got me really into the Lakers was the night in 1969 when Wilt went down to a likely season ending injury. I tuned in on the radio that night and poor Chick Hearn was simply devasted. From that point on, I watched or listened to every game I could, to see how the Lakers would do without their big man. Been a loyal fan ever since.
During high school, there was no Lakers/Celtics rivalry, Boston ducked us in 1972, and 1973. After that, it took until 1984 to get it going again, plus a couple more seasons where Boston tanked to avoid losing to the Lakers. It was at this point in my adult life that I started meeting, mostly through work and school, plenty of Celtics fans. All they could do is harp on us for the 60's. Boston fans didn't really hate the Lakers that much until 1985, when little brother grew up and we started beating them. Signs were showing in the early 80's they were starting to despise us because we had a great team and they were second fiddle to the Sizers, who we beat 2 of 3 finals. Anyway, we sent them into oblivioon in 1987 and the hate from them started to grow. We dominated the 80's and they didn't.
In 2008, the old Celtics fans rejoined the bandwagon and plenty of new ones came aboard. They thought beating us again was to be expected, as they had done so many times years ago. As my signature shows, the head to head could be closer if they were as good as they think they are, but they aren't. Celtics fans love to cherry pick, selecting only what they want to. I know before we beat them in 2010, one C's fan was going on how Kobe had never beat the Celtics, only Kareem and Magic could. My response was where was Boston when Kobe was winning his other 4 rings? Of course, 2002 Boston ducked us, but other than that, they were fishing.
Celtics fans can only dwell on the past. Few fans are alive today that witnessed Boston's glory years. You have to be at least 67 to have seen it all, and even thought of remembering any of it. Median age in the USA is about 37, meaning half the Celtics fans were born after 1974 and remember 1 Celtics title, 2 if they are lucky. However, they have seen countless Lakes titles, and grandpappy always told them Celtics were better than the Lakers. Why wasn't it happening now? That translates to Lakers hate. Call it envy, call it whatever. Reality is, we are the better franchise.
Beyond those 17 banners, Boston Celtics history is a walking disaster.
Since Russell left:
13 times missed playoffs, including a recent 6 year in a row spell.
13 times lost series with home court advantage. Larry Bird accounts for 7 of them, pathetic!
9 first round playoff losses.
6 titles, but no back to back.
Countless seasons with very few wins.
Ducked Jordan's Bulls, only beat him before he got teammates
Dominated/Outshown in the Bird era by Sixers up front, Pistons at end, and Lakers throughout. In fact, in the modern era, the Lakers have a 10-4 title advantage!
No one cars what Boston did in hte stoneage. Those 11 Russell titles don't hold up anymore for a claim for them to be best. Yes, it's most titles, but those titles aren't worth as much as one earned today. I have asked plenty of Celtics fans in real life and on line, would they trade those Russell titles with the Lakers current ones if they still had 1 17-16 title advantage and 10-4 in the modern era? They won't answer, not a single one. Why? Because it proves my point, those Russell era titles aren't worth much. Of course they would trade them, but admitting they would trade them proves my point. They can't say no either because they are left holding that worthless stoneage fabric. So, they don't answer. That also proves my point.
Yep, i love the Celtics and their delusional fans. Bring them all to me, I'll take care of them set them straight. Little brother grew up and the NBA is the Lakers league, and has been for years.

Monday, Sept. 8, 2008 – The cross-border trucking program with Mexico will be under the gun again tomorrow when the U.S. House of Representatives is expected to vote on ending the program – and preventing any new ones from starting.
A vote on HR6630 is expected on the House floor sometime Tuesday, and truckers are being urged to call their lawmakers in support of the measure.
The Owner-Operator Independent Drivers Association issued a National Call to Action alerting its members to the upcoming vote. To read the Call to Action, click here.
The bill got off to a running start when it was introduced in late July.
The bipartisan bill not only seeks to mandate the end of the current program, but also goes further. It seeks to restrict any more authority to operate beyond the border zones from being doled out to Mexican motor carriers without prior approval from Congress.
The bill drew immediate support from the OOIDA.
"Our members have been active in fighting this program for a long time by voicing their concerns to lawmakers, and we thank them for staying involved," said Todd Spencer, OOIDA executive vice president.
Rep. Peter DeFazio, D-OR, along with co-sponsors Rep. James Oberstar, D-MN, Rep. John J. Duncan Jr., R-TN, and Rep. John Mica, R-FL, introduced HR6630 late in the day on July 29.
The bill passed the House Committee on Transportation and Infrastructure unanimously two days later – teeing the bill up for consideration by the full house when members returned from the recess on Sept. 8.
The bill calls for the ongoing cross-border trucking program with Mexico to end no later than Sept. 6, 2008 – one year to the day after the program was launched by the U.S. Department of Transportation.
As a first matter of business, the bill mandates an end to the current demonstration project. But, in a move to prevent any other programs from cropping up, the bill also seeks to restrict the U.S. Department of Transportation from granting authority to any more Mexico-based motor carriers to operate beyond the commercial zone after Sept. 6.
The bill goes far beyond just seeking an end to the current program and preventing a new one from starting up. DeFazio and the other co-sponsors obviously want to know the real impact of the program. The bill mandates a couple of reports dissecting the goings-on in the program.
First, the bill reiterates the fact that the DOT's Office of Inspector General is to complete a report reviewing complete compliance of the program as required by Section 6901 of The U.S. Troop Readiness, Veterans' Care, Katrina Recovery and Iraq Accountability Appropriations Act of 2007.
Such OIG audits have been required since the passage of the 2002 transportation appropriations legislation Section 350. However, that legislation only required the OIG to sign off on FMCSA's compliance on just eight provisions within Section 350 and update its audits annually. DOT officials could just certify that the department complied with the rest of Section 350.
Not so anymore with the passage of Section 6901. The Inspector General is now required by law to certify DOT's compliance with 22 additional provisions for conducting a cross-border program with Mexico.
DeFazio's current bill calls for the audit of the 22 additional provisions to be completed 60 days after the bill is signed into law.
HR6630 also addresses oversight of the program. The bill seeks to establish an independent review panel that is to report to Congress on a variety of aspects of the program.
The independent panel is called on to:
The bill also calls for the Secretary of Transportation to report on a variety of details on the program in a report to Congress. The secretary would be required by the bill to report to Congress:

Hemp Clothing
Because growing hemp is illegal in the US, our hemp comes from industrial hemp plants grown in China. And while technically not certified organic, it's grown as organically as possible. Thanks to its natural heartiness, hemp doesn't require any chemical pesticides or fertilizers, which makes it's safer for the farmers that grow it as well as the land it's grown on. In fact, this drought resistant plant does wonders for the soil it's grown in. Farmers who grow hemp are able to plant food crops in the same field immediately after harvest—something not possible with a lot of other crops.
Once hemp is processed into fabric, it resembles linen in a lot of ways. It's lightweight and remarkably breathable. It washes well, and because we blend ours with other materials like organic cotton, recycled polyester, and spandex, it doesn't wrinkle as much as linen does.

American Farmland Trust has joined with more than 640 organizations to send a letter supporting the Conservation Title to the Senate and House leadership of the Agriculture Committees.
See letter here.
"I am proud to stand with conservationists from all 50 states as we call for a strong Conservation Title in the 2012 farm bill," says Jon Scholl, President of American Farmland Trust (AFT). "We must have the most robust conservation spending possible to give farmers the programs they need to protect our farm and ranch land and to help keep our soils, water and other natural resources in the best condition possible."
This diverse group -- representing landowners, farmers, ranchers, forest managers, agricultural and forest businesses, hunters and anglers, local and state government officials, and non-profit organizations -- knows first-hand the importance of conservation programs for the economic and environmental health of rural America. As the letter says, "The result is real conservation with multiple benefits for every region of America. Not the least of these is helping landowners to stay on the land as stewards of America's legacy of natural resources."
The letter reminds Congress that Conservation Title programs are implemented in unique partnerships -- and cooperative conservation agreements -- between the USDA and private landowners. This time-tested and successful model helps make conservation an engine of economic growth by advancing agriculture, forestry and outdoor recreation.
The organizations recognize that difficult decisions will be made while Congress works to reduce the federal deficit, noting, "…the proposal by the House and Senate Agriculture Committees in the Budget Control Act last year demonstrates that the Conservation Title can continue to meet vital national needs while sharing in budget reductions." At the same time, this letter is a clear indication of the importance of continued support for the Conservation Title. "We must keep moving forward, despite the fiscal challenges,"
says Scholl.
"It's time to recognize that the Conservation Title is a crucial strategic investment that underpins our health and prosperity today—one that will only gain in importance as we face increasing agricultural and environmental challenges in coming decades," Scholl concludes.

This is the parameter that can be changed with the "timeout" option. But of course if the client is clever enough to implement it, it could also implement a not-as-stupid dynamic fall-back. "The server typically responds in 2msec, but it's been 20msec." "I've been missing a bunch of packets. I'll give the server some extra time before giving up."

Good idea -- I didn't know about Matt's PhD project. A complexity is that you cannot hold off making the TFTP connection for too long. If a PXE client times out on the request it usually does Something Pointless, like giving up and not rebooting. > This would help to limit the problems with > current TFTP server implementations: clients, once they got through, > would be guaranteed quick and complete service. A better approach is detecting overload and round-robin servicing the clients. But I haven't figured out what "detecting overload" means, especially when there are no RFC-suggested timeout values. Hmmm, but SEDA could play a role here: if your round-robin gets close to the per-packet timeout, you want to give up on new connections. There is also the issue of monotonic progress: if you start losing clients to timeouts, you might want to throw away fairness to make certain that some clients succeed, while letting others stay just under the timeout limit. > If no one else writes such a beast (*nudge**nudge*) I plan to, but > only in my Copious Free Time. :) Great! But there is a very low reward. Even around here I get "why write another TFTP program?" These things often take more time than you expect. Writing a simple server is simple. Creating a test setup that causes failures in way that you can figure out what went wrong is Really Very Difficult. -- Donald Becker becker at scyld.com Scyld Computing Corporation http://www.scyld.com 410 Severn Ave. Suite 210 Scyld Beowulf cluster system Annapolis MD 21403 410-990-9993

When most people think of Japan, they think of reliable cars and electronics, or perhaps karaoke or manga, recently maybe even whales – but bears? Probably not. And yet there are lots of bears in this country; two species to be exact, the Asiatic black bear and brown bears.
Historically, Asiatic black bears (Ursus thibetanus) occupied all of Kyushu, Shikoku and Honshu, while brown bears (U. arctos, grizzlies in North America) ruled Hokkaido. Their ranges have been much reduced over the centuries, and black bears became extinct on Kyushu in the 1950s and are restricted to very small pockets of Shikoku.
In Honshu, there are estimated to be more than 15,000 bears, although even here some isolated populations are endangered. The 1,000–2,000 brown bears in Hokkaido are now confined to mountainous areas. Bears are difficult to count in Japan's rough and densely vegetated topography, and population statistics remain vague at best.
So many bears, so many people. There's regular contact and conflict between the two in fields, bee yards and other places. It's inevitable considering bears eat literally everything we do and a few things that would turn us yellow.
Unfortunately, bear conservation and researching preventive conflict methods have not been priorities in Japan. Live wild bears have no economical value, but dead bears do. Bear gall bladders have been in traditional Chinese medicine for thousands of years.
Even though the pharmaceutical companies synthetically produce the active ingredients contained in a bear gall bladder, some patients still prefer the wild variety. This may help explain why non-lethal damage control methods have been spurned to the benefit of lethal methods.
On average, more than 1,000 bears are killed each year just in damage control actions.
Nationwide, each year, people are still mauled or even killed, and damage to property still ranges in the hundreds of millions of yen, which fuels local demands for more kills. Clearly, more effective methods are required.
In truth, the system is slowly evolving. The government is slowly getting more interested and involved, sometimes asking hunters to limit the number of bears they kill or encouraging property owners to use preventive methods; occasionally, even helping fund scientific research projects.
As a bear researcher, I am confident there will be at least some wild bears in Japan for a long time, but I am very worried about some local and isolated populations. A few of those are now partially protected and may recover, but others may disappear unless killing moratoriums are enforced at least until scientific research ascertains their health and determines sustainable harvest rates.
Bears have already disappeared from Kyushu and most of Shikoku and western Japan and current management approaches may not protect isolated populations further north. I hope stakeholders will begin meaningful discussions resulting in a consensus on the issues to ensure the long-term survival of bears in Japan.
Oscar started leading two-day summer bear-viewing hikes in the Japanese Alps in 2007 to help raise awareness and funding for the NPO he co-founded. So far all the participants have seen at least one bear and some as many as four. If you are interested in supporting the NPO's bear studies and having a great time this summer with a knowledgeable guide, visit www.withoscar.com/viewbears (English) www.shinshukumaken.com (Japanese).

First off, I am very sorry for taking a picture with my cell phone. I completely forgot to take a photo last night so when we had some for lunch today, I had to take a quick pic. Guess I was a bit hungry and excited last night.
I have never made chili – well that isn't 100% true, I did help my friend at one point make it but I've never made it myself so I did some looking around online for recipes. There are countless chili recipes and so many delicious sounding ones. However, all of the recipes called for onions and Bryan can't eat those, so I was determined to make a flavorful chili minus the onions and gluten of course. While shopping, I noticed that a few brands of chili powder contained gluten in them – thankfully the store brand didn't and it was way less money! I found a few that sounded great, read them over and kind of picked different ingredients from each recipe and came up with my own. Keeping my fingers crossed that it would taste okay, seeing as Bryan was having some classmates over to study for their midterm. Probably not the smartest idea to cook/bake something you have never done before when people are coming over, but I did it anyway and it came out great!!
We really enjoy spicy food in our house, so I tried to make sure I had enough spice in the chili but not over powering. The following recipe has a great kick to it so if you aren't into spicy food, just adjust the seasoning to your taste level, maybe by cutting the measurements in half at first and go from there. you could also add some extra tomatoes to help cool it off a bit. Also a great topping to help with the heat – sour cream! Bryan thought I was crazy when I picked it up at the store but after he tried it, he really liked it.
Chili – Gluten Free and Onion Free
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
4-6 celery stocks (cleaned and chopped)
5 cloves of garlic, finely chopped
1 large green (or red) bell pepper, chopped
1 can of tomato paste
3 tablespoons chili powder (if you like less spice, use 1 – 1 1/2 tablespoons)
2 tablespoons chopped chipolte chilis in adobo sauce
1 tablespoon of the adobe sauce from the chilis (this is in addition to the 2 tablespoons of the chopped chili's)
1/2 teaspoon cumin
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
2 pounds of ground beef
1 28oz can diced tomatoes with juice
1 bay leaf
2 cans 14.5 oz kidney beans, rinsed and drained
1/2 cup water
Salt and ground pepper
In a 5-quart heavy pot or dutch oven, heat oil over medium-high heat. Add garlic, celery and peppers. Season with salt and pepper and cook until the celery and peppers have softened – about 3 minutes.
Add tomato paste, chili powder, chipotle chili's, adobo sauce, cumin and cinnamon to the garlic, celery and peppers. Cook until everything is well combined and starts to brown, about 2-3 minutes. Add ground beef, and brown, breaking it down into chunks and no longer pink.
Add the diced tomatoes with their juices, bay leaf, kidney beans and water. Simmer for 45 minutes to one hour – taste and season with salt and pepper accordingly.
We served this with Bob's Red Mill's Gluten Free Corn Bread (topped with butter and honey, yummmm)
Top with:
Shredded cheese, sour cream, avocados, jalapenos etc.

Interbike 2011: Wheel manufacturers go wider for 2012
New cyclo-cross disc offerings, too
If the wide-rim movement was a drop in the proverbial bucket a few years ago, it's now a veritable downpour if this year's Interbike trade show was any indication. Companies like HED and Zipp (and quietly, Shimano and Velocity) have already been on board for some time but now American Classic and Rolf Prima have entered the fray as well.
The benefits are tough to argue with – more air volume for a given casing size, better sidewall support for surer cornering, fewer pinch flats, and improved road feel. In some cases, aerodynamic performance is claimed to improve, too.
Other trends include a growing number of road tubeless-compatible options (from Campagnolo and American Classic) along with some enticing new disc-ready road models for 2012 as well.
HED's 'wider and rounder' rim shapes and new disc-compatible wheels
HED have been at the forefront of the 'wider is better' approach to wheel design. They're once again wasting little time waiting around, with new disc-ready versions of their Ardennes alloy clinchers and tubulars, and Stinger 5 carbon tubulars to accommodate the new wave of disc-equipped 'cross bikes.
Both variants feature Center Lock alloy hubs with grease ports and 135mm rear axle spacing that add just 35g each as compared to the company's non-disc hubs, according to HED "repository of knowledge" Andy Tetmeyer. Add in some lightweight rotors and the expected full-hydraulic setups soon to come from SRAM and Shimano, and it seems that overall weight penalties might be more modest than some have feared.
HED has decided to go with the Center Lock interface on its disc-compatible hubs. Six-bolt rotors will also work with the appropriate adapter
Unfortunately, HED won't have those disc-compatible wheels available for another six to eight weeks so they'll miss out on most of this 'cross season, but we're still looking forward to trying out a set later this year.
Coming in November is the expanded and revised Jet range, with the same wider-format C2 aluminum clincher and tubular rim beds and brake tracks as before, but with new unidirectional carbon fiber aero caps that are both lighter and more aerodynamic thanks to their more rounded nose shapes borrowed from the Stinger family.
HED gives its Jet series of aluminum and carbon-rimmed aero wheels the same wide rim profiles as its Ardennes models
Claimed weights for the Jet collection range from 1,643g for the 46mm-deep Jet 4 FR up to 1,965g for the 90mm-deep Jet 9 FR. Pricing varies between US$1,900-2,000 depending on rim depth.
Also new to the Jet family for 2012 is the lower-priced Jet 5 Express, built with the same rim technology as the rest of the collection but with slightly heavier hubs, thicker spokes, and a versatile 55mm-deep profile for a total claimed weight of 1,681g. Cost is reduced by around US$500 per set.
The Stinger range of wide-format, all-carbon tubulars see the biggest change this year, growing from three models to six. The new 33mm-deep Stinger 3 is the lightest in HED's company catalog at 1,188g per set, owing in part to the 25mm width as compared to the other Stingers' broader 28mm measurement. Tetmeyer says HED easily could have made an even lighter wheelset for pure climbers but instead opted for a slight compromise that still offered some aerodynamic benefits on the way back down.
HED bills the new 50mm-deep Stinger 5 FR as its toughest and most impact resistant model, designed for a wide range of typical road conditions but also cyclo-cross and cobbles. Despite the toughness, claimed weight is still only 1,545g.
Finally, there's the new 75mm-deep Stinger 7 FR at 1,626g, aimed at riders looking for a little more speed while still being manageable in crosswinds. Pricing for all Stingers ranges from US$2,200 to US$2,400 depending on model and save for the Stinger 3 FR, Ardennes GP, and the three-spoke wheels, all of HED's wheels are also available with optional Powertap hubs for an additional charge.
American Classic ditches ETRTO standards
New for 2012 from American Classic are the Road Tubeless road wheels
American Classic is celebrating their 30th anniversary with six new wheel models for 2012, highlighted by new tubeless variants in both road and mountain formats.
Rather than simply use the currently available UST or Stan's NoTubes rim shapes, American Classic's Bill Shook has decided to create his own rim profiles, which – interestingly enough – toss aside industry standard ETRTO dimensions in favor of a more progressive approach that works more like automobile or motorcycle rims. "ETRTO is crazy," he told BikeRadar. "I just want to make stuff that works."
Shook says his rims use a slightly bigger bead diameter than typical along with a gently ramping internal shape and a pronounced ridge that actively wedges the bead into the hook for safety. That hook is also lower – similar to what NoTubes has been advocating – so that the tire casing is less restrained. American Classic still recommend proper Road Tubeless tires to match, though, for their safer no-stretch carbon fiber beads.
Despite the Road Tubeless wheelset's broader 22mm-wide rims (19mm internal width), claimed weight is still just 1,179g thanks to American Classic's ultralight Micro 58 and RD 205 front and rear hubs. Retail price is US$1,399.
Lighter yet is American Classic's reintroduction of their magnesium-rimmed road clinchers, which share the Road Tubeless model's 22mm external width but omits the tubeless compatibility. Claimed weight is 1,108g for the pair – on par with many carbon tubulars – and retail price is US$1,599.
American Classic's new MTB Race wheels – available in both 26″ and 29″ diameters – adopt the same philosophy as the Road Tubeless model with a larger-than-typical bead seat diameter but an even-wider 28mm external width. In fact, Shook claims it's so wide that most riders should be able to drop down a tire size – thus saving weight – while still maintaining the same footprint and casing volume.
American Classic unveiled new tubeless-compatible MTB Race wheels at this year's Interbike show in both 26″ and 29″ sizes
Even with those more generous dimensions, the rims themselves are ultralight at just 310g for the 26″ size and 340g for the 29ers. Claimed weight for the complete wheels is similarly svelte at 1,321g and 1,419g per pair, respectively, and both are built with American Classic's Disc 130 and Disc 225 six-bolt hubs with convertible axle standards. Suggested retail price for either is US$999.
Shook cautions that the MTB Race wheels' bead diameters are specifically designed for tires with tube-type beads and in fact, he says that ones with true UST or even tubeless-ready beads likely won't fit.
Shook has designed a less aggressive profile into the new mid-range Terrain 26″ and 29″ tubeless mountain bike wheels, however, and all tires should readily seat. Rim width is a more modest 26mm (external dimension) and weights are more average as well at 1,782g for the 26″ size and 1,895g for the 29ers. Both are built with American Classic Terrain Disc hubs and retail price is US$470 per pair. All of American Classic's new wheels should be available by January.
Campagnolo launches new alloy-carbon road clinchers with Road Tubeless options
Just as it did with its Fulcrum sister range, Campagnolo has added a new collection of alloy-carbon hybrid aero road clinchers to its collection for 2012 called Bullet.
Campagnolo will offer the Bullet wheels in three depths – 50, 80, and 105mm – and all of them will be offered in either standard clincher or tubeless-compatible 2-Way Fit rim profiles for use with either format. In addition, buyers will also have their choice of CULT steel bearings or the company's USB hybrid ceramic setup.
Campagnolo's new Bullet Ultra 80 uses an 80mm-deep profile to slice through the wind
Differences between the Fulcrum and Campagnolo versions go beyond skin-deep, however. Both share anti-rotation bladed stainless steel spokes for easier truing, pierceless outer rim walls that require no rim tape, rims that are balanced with the valve stem in mind for more stable running at high speed, and special aluminum internal nipple seats for more precise spoke alignment. Both also use two-to-one lacing patterns on the rear wheel for more balanced spoke tension but the Campagnolo wheels will get the company's unique G3 spoking pattern on the rear wheels as compared to Fulcrum's more conventional looking setup.
Claimed weight for the lightest Bullet Ultra is 1,590g; the mid-deep Bullet Ultra 80 weighs 1,790g; and the most aggressive Bullet Ultra 105 is 1,960g for the set.
Campagnolo also showed off some of their new component offerings for 2012. In addition to the much-hyped electronic system (which is set to officially launch this January), Campagnolo displayed their long-overdue updates to its aero offerings with new alloy and carbon bar-end shifters in both 10-speed or 11-speed formats with configurable back-to-zero (similar to SRAM's R2C setup) positioning, multi-shift capability (up to three gears in either direction), and handy external ports for the cables.
Campagnolo's new bar-end shifters feature position-adjustable levers and back-to-zero internal mechanisms
Those shifters will be accompanied by new bar-end brake levers with either carbon fiber or aluminum lever blades and tidy quick-release mechanisms for use with Campagnolo's own QR-free brake calipers and upsized 55/42T or 54/42T chainring combinations for Super Record, Record, or Chorus cranksets.
Finally, there's a subset of Campagnolo components designed specifically for cyclo-cross with heavier-duty seals including four Power Torque cranksets – two with carbon arms, two with alloy ones – for 10-speed and 11-speed drivetrains, some simple forged aluminum wide-profile cantilever brakes, and five wheelsets from basic alloy clinchers to deep-section carbon tubulars.
Campagnolo's 'cross-specific cranks are built around the Power Torque spline system and feature specific chainring combinations
Rolf Prima lightens up, dips its toes into the wide-rim pool
The new Rolf Prima Vigor Alpha wheels feature an all-new rim extrusion measuring 23mm wide
Rolf Prima adds a new top-end 'Alpha' variant to their Vigor family of 33mm-deep alloy road clinchers for 2012, boasting a fresh 22mm-wide rim extrusion for a better match with more common 23mm- and 25mm-wide tires but extra machining on the front hub to keep the overall weight in check. Total claimed weight is 1,480g with just 14 front and 16 rear bladed stainless steel spokes and White Industries rear hub internals. Retail price is US$1,250 and Rolf Prima estimates the wheels to be in stock at retailers beginning in November.
Rolf Prima's lighter Elan family carries on with the same narrow rim extrusion as before but a new Alpha flagship version trims a few grams by way of Sapim CX-Ray spokes and a little extra hub machining. Total claimed weight is now 1,335g for the set while pricing is still relatively reasonable at US$1,149.
All new for 2012 is the Ares line of all-carbon clinchers, which will include the 46mm-deep Ares 4 (1,435g, US$2,499), the 66mm-deep Ares 6 (1,590g, US$2,499), and the 80mm-deep Ares 8 (1,790g, US$2,599). Common features 21mm external rim widths, titanium freehub bodies and internals made by White Industries, titanium quick-release skewers, and bladed stainless steel spokes.
Finally on the road side, the long-running TDF 58 SL has been replaced by the new TDF 60, which uses a new 60mm-deep tubular rim profile measuring 23mm at the tire bed but 25mm at its widest point. According to Rolf Prima, this new shape tests even faster than their own 85mm-deep wheels while still being light at 1,395g per pair in the lightest SL version. Suggested retail price is US$2,299.
Rather than develop another custom extrusion, Rolf has instead chosen to use a custom drilled Stan's NoTubes Arch rim for its long-awaited Ralos 6 and Ralos 9 mountain bike wheels. Naturally, Rolf Prima will again use its trademark paired spoking pattern that reportedly allows for higher tensions and straighter builds and White Industries rear hub internals with stainless steel freehub bodies.
Claimed weights are 1,495g for the 26″ version and 1,655g for the 29″ hoops, both with convertible front and rear hubs and retail prices of US$899.
A closer look at 3T's intriguing Mercurio
Rather than drill or mold holes in the rim, 3T instead molds T-slots into the sides of the rim
In fairness, 3T's new Mercurio carbon road tubular wheels are neither unusually wide nor – obviously – tubeless compatible but their novel configuration warrants a mention nonetheless. Rather than anchor the spokes in the rim via conventionally drilled or molded holes, 3T instead seat each straight-pull spoke head in T-slots that are molded into the side of the rim.
According to 3T, the advantages include a more continuous fiber structure for improved strength, lower wheel inertia since the nipples are relocated to the hub flange, easier wheel truing since the tire doesn't have to be removed, and greater surface area for safer tire gluing. Despite appearances, 3T claims the exposed spoke pockets don't affect aerodynamic performance, either.
Claimed weight is competitive at sub-1,400g for the top-end Mercurio LTD 60 and a "surfacing veil" on the brake track (technology supposedly derived from 3T technical director Richard McAinsh's experience in Formula 1) is said to yield nearly identical stopping performance in both wet and dry conditions.
One undersung feature, however, is the universal freehub body design borrowed from Swiss wheel company Edco. The clever dual-spline pattern will readily accept both Shimano/SRAM or Campagnolo cassettes with no other modifications required aside from adding or removing some spacers.
Reynolds Cycling ready for discs
Reynolds' new Assault disc-compatible wheels can be used with either disc brakes or rim brakes – as long as your frame is spaced for 135mm rear hubs
Last but not least is the disc-ready version of Reynolds Cycling's Assault carbon road/cyclo-cross wheels, built with the same rim as the other Assault wheels but new six-bolt hubs in preparation for the coming crop of road and 'cross framesets.
Spacing on the rear hub is set at 135mm and claimed weights are 1,496g for the tubulars and 1,716g for the clinchers.

In boys hockey: Essex defeats Falcons in comeback win
by Richard Creaser
copyright 2-13-2013
JAY — The North Country Falcons (10-4-1) came out on the wrong end in a match-up of top five Metro Division teams in boys hockey action on Saturday night as they lost 3-2 against the visiting Essex Hornets (11-2-2). The game featured solid goaltending on both sides as Chris Bronson patrolled the net for North Country and Brock Paquette manned the pipes for Essex.
Saturday's contest at the Ice Haus in Jay displayed some of the finest hockey action fans for either side could have expected. The game's officials appeared content to let the teams play a physical — though far from goonish — game. Hard hits, slick skating and dynamic playmaking kept the two sides close throughout the contest.
The Falcons have scored five or more goals in nine of their ten wins and have yet to be shut out by any opponent. By contrast, and with only a few exceptions, Essex has proven itself a capable defensive team whose wins generally turn on low-scoring affairs including a 1-0 shutout win over top seeded South Burlington. Saturday's match would be a contest that would pit North Country's high flying offense against the Hornets' smothering defense.
Scoring opportunities would be at a premium on Saturday night. As if realizing the enormity of the challenge, the Falcons took advantage of an early power play opportunity. Ross DeLaBruere would record the power play goal at 7:06 of the first period to give the Falcons the early lead. Nathan Marsh provided the assist.
The teams would remain dead even through the second period, as the two teams battled to a scoreless draw. North Country had a few solid scoring chances on breakaways but were unable to beat Hornet net minder Paquette to increase their lead.
"We didn't really give them a lot of quality scoring chances," Falcons Coach Andrew Roy said after the game. "We were able to keep them on the wings, out of the front of the net. We played 30 minutes of good hockey and then got a little sloppy in the final period."
The Falcons received a boost in the third period when Adam Viens wrangled the puck past Paquette to give North Country a 2-0 lead a mere 47 seconds into the period. It appeared that the Falcons had the game well in hand until the Hornets struck at 5:03. Tom Fogg snuck one past Bronson to cut the Falcons' lead in half.
Four minutes later the wheels came off the bus for North Country. Penalties to DeLaBruere and Viens 37 seconds apart gave Essex a 5 on 3 advantage. Those penalties had a greater effect on the outcome of the game than fatigue brought on by a short bench, Coach Roy said.
"I don't think it was tired legs or anything else," Coach Roy said. "We made some key mistakes out there tonight and it cost us. It's a tough loss to swallow."
Though North Country would hang in and kill off the penalties, Essex took advantage of the post-power play confusion to strike. A mere 16 seconds after Viens came out of the box Luc LeBlanc would deflect in a shot from Nate Foice to tie up the game at 2-2.
The collapse would be complete when, with 1:22 remaining to play, Steve Jurkewiecz buried a pass from Joey Robertson and Brody Almeida to cap off the Hornets' comeback win.
Despite the heartbreaking loss Coach Roy was not discouraged with his team's chances heading toward the post-season.
"If we can avoid making those mistakes we can play with anyone," Coach Roy said. "There's no reason we can't be the top team in the state."
The Falcons play two more home games against BFA-St. Albans on Wednesday, February 13, at 6 p.m. and Rutland on February 16 at 7 p.m. before finishing out the regular season with three road games against Rice Memorial, Middlebury and Champlain Valley Union on February 20, 23 and 26 respectively.

Signs Of Ovarian Cancer
Ovarian cancer is the fifth leading cause of cancer death for women in the US. In 2009, nearly 22,000 women will be diagnosed with ovarian cancer, and the disease will kill an estimated 14,600 women.
The ovaries are the small organs located on either side of the uterus. They produce and release eggs (ovulation) and are the main source of a woman's female hormones, estrogen and progesterone. Most cases of ovarian cancer are epithelial, where the cancer grows within the cells that cover the ovaries. It may also form on the cells in the ovary that develop into eggs (germ cell tumors) or in the connective tissue that holds the ovary together and produces female hormones (sex cord-stromal tumors).
The survival rate is high for women who are treated for ovarian cancer before it spreads to other organs. Unfortunately, ovarian cancer often goes undetected in its earliest stages because of its vague symptoms— such as unexplained bloating, pelvic or abdominal pain, back pain, increased abdominal size, difficulty eating, unexplained weight loss, urinary incontinence, frequent urination, constipation, fatigue, and indigestion—which can easily be mistaken for other stomach or digestive problems.
Women who regularly experience these symptoms for an extended period should be evaluated to rule out ovarian cancer as the culprit. It is also important to have yearly checkups and take note of how your body looks and feels so you can notice changes if they occur.
There are no screening tests currently available to detect the presence of ovarian cancer early. However, some women are at an increased risk of developing ovarian cancer, including women who never had children or were pregnant after age 30; never used birth control pills; have a family history of breast, endometrial, ovarian, or colorectal cancer; are between ages 50 and 75; went through menopause after age 55; or are obese. Women who experience symptoms, have a family history, or who have a certain gene mutations (BRCA 1 or 2) that predis-poses them to cancer may be evaluated with a pelvic exam, blood tests, an ultrasound, or genetic counseling.
Pregnancy and breastfeeding may have a protective effect for some women. Using oral contraceptives may also reduce ovarian cancer in women who are at high risk.
Some women with BRCA gene mutations decide to have their ovaries removed—even if cancer is not present—as a preventive measure. If you are considering this option, it is important to consult a genetic counselor and your doctor to discuss whether this is the most effective option for you.

Care about content? Better copy isn't enough. As devices and channels multiply—and as users expect to relate, share, and shift information quickly—we need content that can go more places, more easily. Content Everywhere will help you stop creating fixed, single-purpose content and start making it more future-ready, flexible, reusable, manageable, and meaningful wherever it needs to go.
This book is about a topic very near to my heart: creating flexible content that can be published wherever you need it. If you're making content with a single destination in mind, you're wasting a lot of time. You should stop, read this book, and rethink the way you think about content.

These common questions and their short answers are taken from Sara Wachter-Boettcher's book Content Everywhere: Strategy and Structure for Future-Ready Content. You can find longer answers to each in your copy of the book, either printed or digital version.
- What do you mean by "content everywhere"?
The way I talk about it, "content everywhere" doesn't mean splattering your message in every corner of the Web. It's about investing in content that's flexible enough to go wherever you need it: multiple websites, apps, channels, and other experiences. Why? Because devices of all shapes, sizes, and capabilities are flooding the market, and users expect to get your content on all of them, which you can read about in Chapter 1.Right now, most organizations can barely keep up with their large, unwieldy desktop websites, much less multiple different sets of content for all these different experiences. Content everywhere is all about learning how to prepare one set of content to go wherever it's needed—now and in the future.
- What do you mean by structured content, and why is it so important?
Today, most digital content is unstructured: just words poured onto a page. To signify where one part ends and another begins, writers use formatting, like upping a font size to be a headline or putting an author's name in italics. This works fine if your content is only going to be used on a single page and viewed on a desktop monitor, but that's about it.Structured content, on the other hand, is created in smaller modules, which can be stored and used in lots more ways. For example, you could display a headline and a copy teaser in one place, and have a user click to read the rest—something you can't do if the story is all one blob. You can give the same content different presentation rules when it's displayed on mobile, such as resizing headlines or changing which content is prioritized or emphasized—automatically. In this way, adding structure actually makes content more flexible, because it allows you to do more with it. You can learn about this in Chapter 5.
- But don't I need different, simpler content for mobile?
If your content is needlessly complicated and full of fluff, then yes: Your content should be simplified for mobile—and for everywhere else, too. After all, a user with a desktop computer doesn't want to wade through filler either. But should your mobile users be offered "lite" versions of your content rather than the real deal? No.While you might know what people do most often on their mobile devices, you can't know what they're intending to do on any specific visit. After all, people apply to college and buy cars on their phones every day—and will only do more on mobile as devices get more powerful and cheaper. Finally, I've seen firsthand how hard it can be for organizations to manage content on just one website. How much harder will it be when you're juggling updates and versions for multiple discrete experiences? There's no way you'll have the time, resources, and skills to keep up. One set of content that's clear, meaningful, and well structured is a more sustainable solution. You can read more about making this work in Chapters 9 and 10.
- Who should be doing this work?
In the past, content modeling work was often just called data modeling, so it was done by database developers. That's not necessarily a bad thing, but it has its problems. Because content can be much more ambiguous and conceptual than other sorts of data, it needs attention a developer alone is unlikely to give it. If you want content to communicate a message, tell a story, or do something specific for your organization or your users, then you need someone who understands what the content means and how it means it there when you're making content modeling decisions.Oftentimes, the ideal person to play this role is a content strategist, editor, information architect, or user experience designer. The good news is, it's not either-or. Content modeling and structuring can and should be collaborative—something that's more effective when people from multiple perspectives are involved. In Chapters 3 and 4 of this book, I aim to show those who may not have been in those conversations in the past how to get started.
- I'm a content person. Do I really need to understand the technical parts?
If you typically work in a creative, editorial, marketing, or branding role, then dealing with modular content, metadata, logic, and relationships might feel foreign. How does this relate to communicating a message or telling a story? Do you need to know how to build databases and APIs?No, probably not. But here's the thing: If you're the one who understands the content best, and who knows what readers and users want from it, then you're exactly the right person to be thinking about how it should be structured, stored, and transported—so you can keep its meaning and purpose intact. While this doesn't mean you need to become an XML expert, it does mean you should get more comfortable with the ideas presented in Chapters 6 and 7, and be able to discuss needs, options, and priorities with those who will implement technical solutions.
- Is this just about mobile?
Yes and no. Getting content ready for mobile is a big challenge, and spawning all sorts of debate: Do we give mobile users just a portion of our content, allowing them to "snack"? Do we go responsive? Build an app? What does mobile mean, anyway: Is a tablet a mobile device, or something else? As these questions are raised, it becomes more and more clear that what we need is content that can go onto all the devices that exist now—and those that will exist in the future.Smartphones may be disrupting our assumptions today, but they're just the beginning. TVs, household appliances, cars, and more are becoming Internet-enabled. Plus, there are content-shifting services like Instapaper and content-plucking sites like Pinterest to contend with, as I explore in Chapter 11. It would be easy to get overwhelmed, but the good news is this: The work you do now, to structure content for reuse and get it ready for mobile, is going to also make that content more prepared for wherever the future takes it.

When I decided to write Content Strategy for the Web in 2008, I knew with absolute certainty that I was not, in fact, a subject matter expert. I'd earned my undergraduate degree in theater, and my professional expertise lay primarily in making things up, depending what job I happened to have. Where did I get off thinking I could write a book about, well, anything?
What it came down to was this: I was a Web copywriter, and I was sick of the way people treated content as an afterthought. I wanted things to be different. And, ultimately, I had nothing to lose. No one knew who I was, so I had no literary reputation to uphold. Clearly no one cared about the topic, anyhow, so probably no one would read it. And it was with these extremely low expectations of myself that I began—and finished—the process of writing a book.
Then, just as one might hope, some people bought the book. Some conferences called and asked me to speak. And then, one morning I woke up to discover that, according to the Internet, I was suddenly a content strategy "subject matter expert," "thought leader," and "guru." And that was when the imposter complex set in.
The imposter complex manifests like this. The more people tell you how smart you are—the more you hear about how your book is changing projects and companies and careers—the more you are absolutely convinced that any minute now someone is going to point a finger at you and say, "Waaaait a minute. YOU'RE not an expert! You're just someone who plays a content strategist on TV!" And then you will be exposed for the stupid, inexperienced jerk you are. Because clearly, you are not a subject matter expert. Only real experts write books. You should just stay home, eat toast, and keep quiet. You imposter.
In July of 2011, a relatively unknown content strategist named Sara Wachter- Boettcher posted the following statement to her brand-new blog: "I'm not a subject matter expert. But I play one on the Internet." She then proceeded to publish post after post about multiple facets of content strategy: editorial, user experience design, and content management. Her writing was smart, sassy, practical, and accessible.
After a while, Sara started digging into topics I had no experience with but was regularly asked to speak about. Intelligent content. Adaptive content. Structured content. While I understood these topics in a general, surface-y way, I was secretly terrified by them. I am not a technical person. I don't think in systems. I can't create or analyze complex CMS processes. But when Sara began to write about these topics, there was something about the way she approached them that made me feel, well, smarter. Like I understood not only what she was talking about, but why I should care about it in the first place. And that is what a subject matter expert does.
No matter where you are in your career, it's not easy to step up and say, "This is what I think. This is what I value. Here is why I think you should value it, too, and here is how we can do better work together." But if ever there were a time for content professionals to step up and share what they know—with each other, with their companies, and with clients—now is that time. While we all continue to struggle with managing our website content, our other content problems are multiplying exponentially. Sara's book provides us with accessible, practical information that helps us navigate the current complexities of multichannel content. Moreover, it offers important alternatives to planning and structuring content that empower us to move confidently into the future, rather than constantly trying to recover from the past.
Sara has made her mark as a thought leader not because she was born that way, but because she has taken an enormously complex, intimidating topic and made it accessible to practitioners of all stripes. Content Everywhere promises to be the new bible for content professionals who are committed to creating meaningful content that can, at last, be free.

I'm indebted to everyone who listened to my excessive freak-outs, silenced my inner critic, and encouraged me enough to keep chipping away at this book. And trust me, that's a lot of people.
I'd especially like to thank Kristina Halvorson, who encouraged me to do this and introduced me to Lou Rosenfeld when I least expected it. Without that hearty shove, who knows what I'd be doing right now.
Lou Rosenfeld is the sort of guy you want in your corner: unflappable, aboveboard, and smart as hell. I'm lucky he believed I could pull this off, despite having precious little evidence to support my case. I'm also incredibly thankful for the whole Rosenfeld Media family: Marta Justak, my editor; Karen Corbett, who wrangles operations; the editorial board, who saw promise in my proposal; and the entire production team, who pulled all this together.
Eva-Lotta Lamm has a hyphenated German name, which means I liked her even before she created the incredible illustrations used in this book. I would never have finished the manuscript without the support of the nitpicky and crazy smart Jonathan Kahn, as well as my other reviewers Jason Grigsby, Elisabeth Hubert, Erin Kissane, and Sarah Krznarich. Their detailed, thoughtful feedback pushed me in all the right ways, as did the support of early readers Margot Bloomstein, Dan Klyn, Rachel Lovinger, Ethan Marcotte, and Ginny Redish.
Karen McGrane, Ann Rockley, Deane Barker, Mike Atherton, Cleve Gibbon, and R. Stephen Gracey contributed material that brought new perspective to the book—and influenced my writing and thinking as well.
Friends like Anna Hrach, Eric Covill, Daniel Eizans, Nicole Jones, Matt Grocki, Deb Gelman, Corey Vilhauer, Carolyn Wood, Tim Kadlec, Boon Sheridan, and Chris Avore gave me endless encouragement, advice, and criticism throughout the process.
And then there was a whole cast and crew of delightful folks who shared their expertise and experiences with me: Zach Brand and Patrick Cooper at NPR, Mike Reich at Seaborne Consulting and his client at the FCC, Gray Brooks. Mark Porter talked with me about the Guardian; Erik Runyon gave me insight into Notre Dame's website; Dave Olsen and his team shared their experiences at West Virginia University.
The list goes on: Aaron Gustafson, Cameron Koczon, Dorian Taylor, Jeff Eaton, Jeffrey MacIntyre, John Eckman, Josh Clark, Lyza Gardner, MaryLee Grant, Mat Marquis, Max Fenton, Stephen Hay, Michael Spinnella, and Scott Abel all took the time to talk with me and make me much, much smarter than I was before.
But I can't thank anyone more than William Bolton, my partner and best friend for the past decade, who managed to defend his doctoral dissertation and move us across the country while I was writing this book. His patience and love have made this possible.
Thank you all.
