Last week, I innocently tweeted:
|Dear Nutella: I really think you should start selling Nutella baking chips. Seriously. They would rock.
I don't know what made me say that. Maybe because these Perfect Chocolate Chip Cookies have been on my mind, and when I went to my cupboard to check if I had chocolate chips, I saw two jars of Nutella sitting right in front of the peanut butter. Or maybe it was simply because I happened to overhear someone else publicly declare their deep and abiding love for that irresistible hazelnut chocolate spread. (That happens a lot.)
Either way, I thought it would be really cool to bake chocolate chip cookies with Nutella baking chips. Apparently, many others thought it was a great idea as well.
So I decided to try my hand at making my own Nutella chips. It can't be that difficult, I thought to myself. Just … just don't tell Jacques Torres I said that, because I know he'll set me straight in 1.2 seconds.
For my first attempt, I simply spread the Nutella on a sheet of foil and stuck it in the freezer. They say Nutella gets hard in the refrigerator, so I thought, wouldn't it be funny if it were that simple?
Well, apparently it isn't that simple. After 24 hours in the freezer, it had the consistency of a soft fruit roll-up. No way was this going to stand up to being mixed in with dough. Besides, after only a minute or two out of the freezer, it had already begun to melt and return to its original spreadable state.
So I decided to throw in some chocolate chips and butter along with the Nutella and gently melt everything together. I figured the chocolate chips and the butter would help the resulting mixture solidify more after freezing. I used milk chocolate chips because I didn't want the strong flavor of semisweet or bittersweet chocolate to overpower the delicate hazelnuttiness of the Nutella. (You can tell I'm excited when I start making up words.)
I just kept mixing it until it looked smooth and glossy.
Note: In a third attempt, I tried just mixing Nutella and butter and then freezing it. It worked wonderfully as well, and the Nutella flavor was better preserved. (Details at the end of this post.)
My plan was to once again just spread the chocolate on a sheet and let it freeze, but something got into me and I decided to find some ambition in my life. So I stuck the chocolate in a plastic bag and attempted to pipe out discs of chocolate.
I'm no artist, I'll tell you that. A friend of mine very kindly referred to my discs as "puppy poop." (Thanks a lot, pal.) I did, however, eventually get the hang of it. Kinda.
The good news is that the spiral mounds even out as the chocolate settles, and they look much better when you take them out of the freezer. I made the discs a bit larger than the usual chocolate chips because I wanted nice big chunks of Nutella in my cookies.
Happy with the chips, all that was left to do was mix up a batch of my favorite Perfect Chocolate Chip Cookies. I love that recipe not just because of the deep flavor imparted by the browned butter but also because it doesn't require a mixer.
The aroma of this browned butter is amazing and it leaves your kitchen smelling like toffee. Once the basic dough was done, it was time to take some chips out of the freezer.
Nutella chips, welcome to the world. Allow me to introduce you to browned butter cookie dough.
They make a cute couple, don't you think? I decided to give them a little bit more alone time in the refrigerator overnight. Apparently, letting the dough rest in the refrigerator really deepens the flavor and gives it a richer, darker color.
I had to camouflage the dough in the vegetable drawer, though, under the napa cabbage. Leaving cookie dough out in the open in my house is a dangerous move.
The dough thankfully escaped unharmed. I made large cookies the next day, using an ice cream scoop to measure out the dough. Into the oven for 14 to 16 minutes, and you get those lovely crunchy edges, moist center, and ooey gooey Nutella chunks all over.
Even the cat outside groaned when I broke open the first cookie.
This, my friends, is serious stuff. If you love Nutella, you'll flip over this cookie. And if you don't love Nutella, make these and you just might be converted.
Homemade Nutella Chips
Makes about 2 cups
Using the added milk chocolate chips gives the chips more structure and creaminess but it also mutes the hazelnut flavor. If you don't mind a subtler Nutella flavor or if you will boost the flavor of the cookies with added toasted hazelnuts or ground hazelnuts, feel free to replace the butter with even more milk chocolate chips.
6.5 oz. Nutella
In a double boiler or a glass bowl set over a pot of simmering hot water, melt all the ingredients until you have a smooth, glossy chocolate mixture, about 3 to 5 minutes. Be careful not to burn the chocolate. Take the mixture off heat.
To make chunks, spread in a 1/8-inch thick layer on Silpat or foil and freeze for at least 2 hours. When frozen solid, break into chunks with a knife (try not to handle the chocolate too much or the heat of your hands will start to melt it). Store in the freezer until ready to use.
To make chocolate chips or discs, put the melted chocolate inside a pastry bag or resealable bag with a corner snipped off. Pipe out the discs or chips onto a baking sheet lined with Silpat or a sheet of foil. When done, put the sheet in the freezer and freeze for at least 2 hours. When frozen solid, loosen the chocolate chips and store in a bag or airtight container in the freezer until ready to use.
Nutella Chip Cookies
(Adapted from America's Test Kitchen's Perfect Chocolate Chip Cookies)
Melt 1 1/4 sticks butter in a skillet over medium-high heat. Keep swirling until butter has a dark golden brown color and a nutty aroma, about 1 to 3 minutes. Transfer it to a bowl and mix in the remaining butter until melted.
Add the sugars, salt, and vanilla to the butter and mix well. Add the egg and the extra yolk; whisk until smooth, about 30 seconds. Let it rest for 3 minutes, then whisk again for about 30 seconds, before letting it rest again. You'll want to whisk this about 4 times, until you have a thick, glossy, and smooth mixture.
Gently stir in the flour and baking soda just until combined. Make sure dough is cool before stirring in the Nutella chips and nuts, if using.
Cover the dough with plastic wrap and store in the refrigerator for 24 to 36 hours.
Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Form dough balls about 3 tablespoons in size (I use an ice cream scoop) and place them on a lined baking sheet about 2 inches apart. Bake at 375 degrees for 14–16 minutes (mine took 15 minutes), then put the baking sheet on a cooling rack and let the cookies cool on the sheets.
Here is a photo of the chips/chunks made with just Nutella and melted butter mixed together. I spread the resulting mixture on a silicone mat, put it in the freezer for about 3 hours, and then cut it into chunks.
Because the only chocolate in this mixture is the Nutella, the hazelnut flavor is more pronounced when compared to the batch made with added milk chocolate chips. These are simpler to make, too, and my preferred method for making Nutella chips. At least, speaking from my vast experience of Nutella-chip-making that encompasses all of three days.

Washington, DC (February 9, 2012) – Today, the House of Representatives overwhelmingly adopted legislation without the "public corruption" amendment included in the Senate version on a voice vote without debate. While the attention of the media and the public have been focused largely on the insider trading provisions of the primary piece of legislation, the STOCK Act, House Majority Leader Eric Cantor boldly and correctly rejected that amendment, which would have turned bad legislation into even worse law.
The amendment had sought to re-write multiple criminal laws in precisely the way the Supreme Court has declared would be unconstitutionally vague and overbroad. See Skilling v. United States, 130 S.Ct. 2896 (2010); United States v. Sun-Diamond Growers of California, 526 U.S. 398 (1999). Importantly, decades of successful prosecutions of corrupt public officials with the over two dozen federal criminal statutes already in existence belies all assertions that the Department of Justice desperately needs more tools in order to prevent public corruption. The "Public Corruption" Amendment, both in its substance and in the manner in which it was piggybacked onto the STOCK Act, provides further compelling evidence of a disturbing and costly overcriminalization trend in Congress.
According to NACDL President Lisa Wayne, "There are over 4,450 federal criminal laws on the books and tens of thousands more in the regulations. It's actions like these – the unconsidered rushing through of harsh criminal law solutions to vague or undefined problems – that got our nation to this terrible place."

Mimosa bars are a super fun addition to holiday brunches, wedding showers and summer parties!
I created one for brunch last Sunday and it was a huge hit, so I wanted to share exactly what you need to make your own at home!
Supplies Needed
- colorful tablecloth
- chalkboard
- champagne flutes
- 4 glass bottles with stoppers
- tags for each bottle
- ribbon for tags
- serving tray for fruit
- assorted fruits
- assorted juices
- champagne
Begin by placing the tablecloth to your table, next place the "Mimosa Bar" chalkboard sign on the tablecloth.
I picked up this fun chevron green tablecloth and adorable owl chalkboard sign at Hobby Lobby!
Next, add the champagne flutes to the table.
I purchased fresh fruit from Polito Farms at the Little Italy Mercato and juiced them myself (with the help of my Dad!) using my Healthy Juicer!
Remember to click on the right banner of the page where it says "Win a Free Healthy Juicer" to sign up to win your own!
Next, pour the juices into the bottles, then add tags to the bottles with ribbon for each juice flavor!
Finally, add the fruit to a serving tray. I used my Longaberger 3-bowl serving tray with spoons that worked perfectly!
Place a bottle of champagne on the table and await your guests arrival!
I can't wait for my next party, just so I can make another mimosa bar!

Saving Pennies or Dollars is a new semi-regular series on The Simple Dollar, inspired by a great discussion on The Simple Dollar's Facebook page concerning frugal tactics that might not really save that much money. I'm going to take some of the scenarios described by the readers there and try to break down the numbers to see if the savings is really worth the time invested.
Calista writes in: Does making your own baby food purees save pennies or dollars?
As always, it depends on the source of the food you use to make the puree. If you're using excess produce from your garden, it's going to be cheaper, of course.
However, where Calista raises an interesting point is with fresh fruits and vegetables that you can buy at a very low price at the grocery store. How do you decide when it's worth it to make it yourself versus simply buying those convenient Gerber baby food containers?
I'll use bananas as an example. I can frequently buy bananas at my local grocery store for $0.49 a pound – and, often, they're on sale for less than that. If I peel out a pound of bananas, I'm left with about eleven ounces of fruit, based on my weighings on my kitchen scale. To this, I would add roughly five ounces of water, milk, or formula to create a smooth texture, then puree it in a blender. After that, I'll have to individually package it in some method, usually by filling up an ice cube tray with the puree and freezing it. Boom – a pound of "banana baby food" for about $0.50.
On the other hand, I can buy a 3.5 ounce tub of pureed bananas from Gerber for $0.57 per container (16 containers for $9.13). A pound of these containers would be about the same as four and a half of these containers, or $2.28.
In other words, I'm saving about $1.78 per pound of bananas that I turn into baby food. This requires the time to peel a few bananas, put them in the blender, add some liquid, hit the puree button, then pour the liquid into the ice cube tray and pop it in the freezer. That's about five minutes of work for a pound of baby banana puree.
So, in the case of straight-up bananas, you're saving dollars and not cents making the baby food yourself.
So, what's the cutoff for value? I'd be willing to make my own baby food if I were saving about $8 per hour. I would estimate that I could convert a pound of raw foods (like bananas) into baby food in about five minutes, and a pound of food I'd have to cook (like broccoli) into baby food in about ten minutes. Thus, I'd have to spend an hour to convert twelve pounds of raw food into baby food or six pounds of cooked food into baby food.
It costs roughly $2.28 to buy a pound of processed baby food, or $13.68 for six pounds of processed baby food or $27.36 for twelve pounds of processed baby food.
To make cooked baby food worthwhile, I'd have to find a source of the food at $5.68 ($13.68 minus $8) for six pounds of the food, or about $0.95 per pound for the raw food. So, if you can find, say, broccoli at $0.95 a pound or less, it's probably worth your time to turn it into cooked baby food.
To make raw baby food worthwhile, I'd have to find a source of the food at $19.36 ($27.36 minus $8) for twelve pounds of the food, or about $1.61 per pound for the food. So, if you can find, say, bananas at $1.61 per pound or less, it's probably worth your time to turn it into cooked baby food.
In the end, you can certainly save dollars by turning some foods, like bananas, into baby food. It gets trickier when you look at out-of-season fruits and vegetables, though, as the cost for a pound of those foods tends to make the savings quite small (and can even result in a loss).

Braves believe next wave of talent is on its way
LAKE BUENA VISTA, Fla. -- The Braves had just two players on MLB.com's Top 100 Prospects list, released in January. That's a far cry from the three in the Top 50 the organization had in 2011 or the five prospects on the '12 list. While that might cause some to deride the Braves' system, there are reasons Atlanta's front-office staff feels the organization is in better shape than many feel.
LAKE BUENA VISTA, Fla. -- The Braves had just two players on MLB.com's Top 100 Prospects list, released in January. That's a far cry from the three in the Top 50 the organization had in 2011 or the five prospects on the '12 list. While that might cause some to deride the Braves' system, there are reasons Atlanta's front-office staff feels the organization is in better shape than many feel.
"I think our farm system is better than people are giving credit for being," Braves assistant general manager John Coppolella said. "I think it's tough, because so many players have come through our system and done so well that are at the Major League level right now. If you look at players 25 and younger, I would put the Braves' system up against any system in baseball."
Picking near the end of the first round annually in the Draft, as well as not being on the selling side of a trade to bring in prospects of late, has no doubt taken its toll. Beyond Lucas Sims and Christian Bethancourt, no other Braves prospect in their new Top 20 garnered serious Top 100 consideration.
That doesn't mean there isn't talent. The new Top 20 does have some intriguing talent, even if much of it is further away. The top group of names has some arms -- 11 of the 20 are pitchers -- that, along with Sims atop the list, should have Braves fans optimistic about the future of the pitching staff. That includes 2013 first-rounder Jason Hursh, right-hander Mauricio Cabrera and a now-healthy J.R. Graham.
The 2013 season began with one of those 25-and-under types, Julio Teheran, at the top, but he graduated off the list, and his fine rookie campaign led to a six-year contract. Graham was No. 4, but he's dropped a few spots to No. 6 because of the injury concerns. Sean Gilmartin, No. 5 to start off 2013, was traded to the Twins for Ryan Doumit this offseason.
Bethancourt is once again the top position player in the system, with shortstop Jose Peraza not far behind him at No. 4, though like with much of the talent in this system, he's a few years from being ready.
Evan Gattis and Alex Wood joined Teheran on the graduated list, while Carlos Franco, David Peterson and Juan Jaime dropped from the list because of performance and injuries. Those holes have been filled by players like 2013 draftees Victor Caratini and Kyle Wren, third baseman Kyle Kubitza and right-hander Shae Simmons.
"We probably don't have a top-five system right now, but a lot of it goes in cycles," Coppolella said. "We had a very good system a few years ago. They're all up here now and they helped us win 96 games last year. We feel like there is a next wave on its way. We feel there's a really good group there. We feel there are a lot of underrated prospects in our system, and it will be exciting to see them come through and help us in Atlanta."
Three questions with Jason Hursh
Hursh was the Braves' first-round pick in 2013, taken No. 31 overall, out of Oklahoma State. He's participating in his first Spring Training, in big league camp.
MLBPipeline.com: What are your impressions of big league camp? And were you surprised you got the invite?
Hursh: It was a shock at first. I was looking back at this time last year and I was getting ready for college games. In a blink of an eye, I'm in a clubhouse full of big league guys. It's cool, it's a dream come true. It was a little of a surprise, honestly. I didn't know what to expect. When I did get the call, I was excited. I knew it would be a special deal.
MLBPipeline.com: Are you fiddling around with pitches to see what works best?
Hursh: Here and there, a little bit. I was mainly a slider guy in college. That's what I could really control a lot better. That's one of the things they changed with me when I first showed up here. They wanted to make me a true curveball guy. That's what I threw in high school and I was comfortable with it. I'm really working on that pitch right now, but if I get that down, I can always go back to that slider and have another secondary pitch that I'm comfortable with.
MLBPipeline.com: Having come back from Tommy John surgery, is it something that you don't think about any more? Was it a blessing in disguise that you got it out of the way?
Hursh: Exactly, it was in the aspect that it's out of the way and I felt I came back 100 times stronger. I think I physically matured. I don't really think about it. I think I have a new tendon in my elbow that's stronger than it was before. I just kind of let it go.
Camp standout: Juan Jaime
Jaime may have dropped off of the Top 20 list, but he was turning heads in the early stages of Braves camp.
Guys that throw hard often do create a buzz, and Jaime does just that. Right from the get-go, Jaime's electric arm got rave reviews.
"I caught Jaime," veteran catcher Gerald Laird said. "He has explosive stuff. The fastball is in the upper 90s, with that split and a slider. I caught him the first day, and it looked like his arm really belongs in camp."
Jaime joined with young arms like No. 9 David Hale and No. 19 Shae Simmons in opening some early eyes, each with a chance to impact the big league bullpen. Starting prospect J.R. Graham (No. 6) also pleased many by being healthy and throwing well.
Jaime has never had trouble throwing hard. At first, he had trouble staying healthy, missing two seasons in 2010 and '11 with the Nationals and D-backs following Tommy John surgery. The Braves nabbed Jaime on waivers following the 2011 season and he's stayed healthy since, putting his 80 fastball on display and striking out 13.8 per nine innings over the past two seasons. He's also given up close to 5.9 walks per nine in the same time span. Jaime's control, along with difficulty in throwing his secondary stuff consistently, are big reasons why didn't have a great 2013 season in Double-A and why he didn't make the Top 20.
Jaime's early work in big league camp has been encouraging. Getting him to trust his stuff and understand that he never has to nibble would go a long way in getting him to Atlanta's bullpen soon.
"With that kind of stuff, it's mostly commanding within the zone," Laird said. "I'm not asking him to hit corners when you have that kind of stuff. When he settles in and can throw strikes when he wants, it's going to be make it a lot easier for him.
"The main concern with him is just getting him around the plate, because his stuff is good enough where he can throw it over the plate and get away with it. When you ask him to hit corners and he starts walking guys, that's when you get into trouble. If he just commands his stuff in the zone, he's going to be fine."
Breakout candidate: Tommy La Stella
Wherever La Stella has been, he's hit. He finished his college career with a .384 average. La Stella has hit .327 with a .412 OBP as a pro since being an eighth-round Draft pick of the Braves in 2011. The problem has been he simply hasn't been on the field enough to allow that bat to cary him to the big leagues
La Stella has yet to play more than 90 games in any one season. Continuing to work on his play at second this spring has been a focus, with the feeling the bat will continue to be there. If he can stay away from the disabled list, this could be big year for La Stella, one that could end with him in Atlanta.
"I think he can really hit and he may get an opportunity in Atlanta if the need arises," Coppolella said. "He needs to play more games. We need him to stay healthy and continue to improve his defense. But the guy can flat out hit."

FAIRFIELD COUNTY, Conn. — As the snowstorm tapers off on Tuesday afternoon, the birds are once again flying across Fairfield County.
"The March storm makes it difficult for birds to find natural sources for food, so feeders are like a fast-food drive-through during storms. Chickadees need to fatten up during the day to survive frigid nights," said Brookfield resident Tara Maguire, an avid bird lover.

Dear Cakespy Readers,
When I was in high school, I was overweight--and as a result, always on a diet. Of course, periods of intense deprivation inevitably would end dramatically, with me raiding the freezer for ice cream, cookies, candy, chips...anything. A vicious cycle.
When I was a senior in high school, I came across Geneen Roth's book When You Eat at the Refrigerator, Pull Up a Chair. In it, she recounts how one day she said "enough!" to the yo-yo of constantly starving oneself and asked herself what it was that she really wanted to eat. In her case it was chocolate chip cookies, so she ate them--and only them--every day, every meal, until her body was crying out for a veggie. Over time, what happened was that she learned how to actually listen to her body and respect its desires and needs.
What was it that I really wanted, I wondered? The answer was immediate, and consisted of two things: cake and bread. And so, for the next several months, I rotated a menu consisting almost completely of bagels with a generous spread of cream cheese, gooey grilled cheese sandwiches, and cake--mostly vanilla cupcakes with pink frosting and crumb cake.

"I am circling around God, around the ancient tower, and I have been circling for a thousand years and I still don't know if I am a falcon, or a great storm, or a great song."
Rainer M. Rilke
Welcome to my website. Something or someone led you here so please stay awhile and acquaint yourself with some of my reflections on psychology and loss or even my comedic musings.
A little bit about me: Professionally, I am a practicing Human Relations Counselor with a Jungian perspective, a Certified Group Psychotherapist and a Clinical Member of The American Group Psychotherapy Association. I've been practicing as a depth psychotherapist for 39 years meaning I believe in the power of the unconscious to offer us some truths and to help set us free emotionally.
I have specialized in grief and loss and serious illness - particularly after the death of my precious daughter, Katie, to a brain tumor. My work is with individuals, couples and religious communities. I run groups on specific topics. In March, 2009, I founded and have facilitated a free-of-charge group for bereaved mothers who have lost children. It's called "Mothers Finding Meaning Again." There is more information about these courageous women on this site under groups.
I am pleased to have been chosen as a member of The Partners in MS Care. This program recognizes and supports quality Multiple Sclerosis care. The program involves health care professionals in the areas of neurology, mental health and rehabilitation, as well as links to sites that provide multi-disciplinary and comprehensive MS care. Health care professionals recognized as Partners in MS Care demonstrate knowledge and experience in treating chronic illness and engage in communication with other healthcare providers treating the MS patient. We have a special interest in treating people, spouses and families living with Multiple Sclerosis. Partners in MS Care has a strong collaborative relationship and works closely with the National MS Society to access a full array of medical, psycho-social and rehabilitation services delivered in a coordinated fashion where providers share common goals for patient outcomes.
In Oct. 2008 I completed my book entitled When Every Day Matters. My publisher is the esteemed author of Simple Abundance, Sarah Ban Breathnach. I am a Certified Simple Abundance Leader and incorporate the beliefs of gratitude, simplicity, order, harmony, beauty and joy. Early in 2009 When Every Day Matters foreign rights were contracted with St. Pauls and Better Yourself Books in Mumbai, India, for the English version for distribution in third world countries: India, Sri Lanka, the Philippines, Malaysia and Africa. You will find a link here to Amazon should you like to purchase a copy for yourself or a friend.
Lastly, if you are interested in entering therapy with me, know that I believe your inner journey is sacred. I will treat you with respect and compassion. I will enthusiastically encourage you to work hard to uncover your truths. The therapeutic alliance we experience together will help you unravel complicated issues you struggle with, make changes where possible, and accept that which cannot be changed. My bottom line is I believe faith and spiritual beliefs make life bearable in hard times and are a joy in good times.
I see clients in person in Newtown Square, PA or consult by telephone. I do not accept insurance keeping your information highly confidential. My fee is reasonable. I will help you decide what comes next.

Dr. Deane Manolis was hoping the people doling out the state's Legacy fund money would be interested in an oral history of psychiatry in Minnesota. They gave him $2,914 in taxpayer money for the project.
Lori Bents got money to document women who served as Red Cross volunteers in World War I. Taxpayers gave Kang Vang $7,000 to tell the story of Asian-Americans in north Minneapolis. Jon Collins got money to compile the history of Minnesota journalism in the last half of the 20th century.
With the state's new taxpayer-backed Legacy fund churning out hundreds of millions of dollars for arts and environmental initiatives, hundreds of small projects cataloging the sometimes offbeat nooks of the state's cultural heritage are quietly flourishing.
Not everyone thinks that Minnesota can afford these amenities when state leaders are slashing budgets and borrowing money to pay bills as many people struggle to find work.
"When you're so tight on money, especially on the state level," it is difficult to justify them, said former U.S. Sen. Rod Grams, who helped lead an unsuccessful campaign in 2008 to defeat the Legacy Amendment.
In good times, Grams said, "some of these projects we probably wouldn't care about."
State officials said they are sensitive to what projects get Legacy money, especially with much of Minnesota facing the lingering effects of a recession and coming off years of back-to-back, multibillion-dollar deficits.
David Grabitske, the Minnesota Historical Society's manager of outreach services, said cultural heritage grant recipients meet "identifiable standards" and must show a "clear need and rationale." While he acknowledged that Legacy money is supporting many projects that otherwise might not be a priority, Grabitske said the public and state officials "did not want to see things that were just mere busy work."
The state's Historical Society now sifts through hundreds of requests for Legacy grants for cultural heritage projects. Before the Legacy constitutional amendment, the society typically awarded $80,000 to $200,000 a year in competitive grants. Now, $5.25 million is available annually.
A recipient who got money to compile the history of comics in Minnesota compared it to the New Deal's Federal Art Project, which gave money to artists and historical researchers during the 1930s.
The cash infusion is part of more than $200 million a year from the voter-approved Legacy constitutional amendment, which increased state sales taxes to fund projects benefiting the outdoors, clean water, parks and trails, art and cultural heritage until 2034.
Money for missile history
A good chunk of the money is going to small-scale projects. Of the 1,230 Legacy projects so far, nearly half -- 610 -- got less than $50,000. One-third received less than $15,000.
So while there are big projects -- such as the $1.1 million being spent to update the inventory of wetlands in Minnesota -- just over $4,000 went to look at the history of maternity care in Duluth prior to 1941, and $7,000 went to study the culture facing women who served in the St. Paul Police Department.
Fred Keller, from the small Hennepin County suburb of St. Bonifacius, helped get a $14,000 grant to tell the story of the Cold War-era Nike missile base once located near the town. The money also went to erect plaques near a leftover missile perched in a city park.
In awarding the money, officials noted that "St. Bonifacius is the only town in Minnesota with a real Nike-Hercules missile in its park." Only 15 to 20 of the missiles still exist from the thousands that once guarded 20 U.S. cities.
Grabitske defended the use of Legacy money for plaques to explain the Nike missile. "Having a missile in a park that doesn't have a story attached to it is not accessible," Grabitske said. "It provides the answer to, 'So what? Why is this thing here?'"
Jerry Stenger got $7,000 to help preserve videotapes and other material that tell the story of Minnesota explorer Will Steger.
"I can see where people can say, 'Well, you know, why is that important?'" he said. "[But] the application process is pretty rigorous. They're not just handing money out to anybody."
No 'money wasted'
Much of the Legacy money has gone to larger projects to address statewide or regional needs, such as monitoring moisture at the Basilica of St. Mary in Minneapolis, mapping the vulnerability of glacial aquifers and building a stormwater retention basin in suburban Crystal.
Others are smaller in scope. A $7,000 project is studying the history of a Jewish long-term health care system in the Twin Cities. The Richfield Historical Society got $4,620 to catalog 7,500 black-and-white photos from 1955 to 1957 of nearly every home in the Minneapolis suburb.
Jodi Larson, the society's director, said the grant made the project possible. "Someone could come on in and say, 'I really would like to see what my house looked like in 1957.' We can actually find their house," she said.
But she conceded: "It's not high profile. Nobody's going to drive by the building and look at our museum and say, 'They look like they just rehoused their photos.'"
Margaret Miles oversaw a $6,700 Legacy grant to create an oral history of homelessness in Minnesota. The money, she said, enabled her to travel the state and talk to 67 homeless people and add their stories to hundreds of others she'd already collected. She turned the stories into a traveling exhibit that has been displayed in Washington, D.C.
"I'm well aware the Legacy grants are controversial," Miles said. "For that reason, [I] was quite mindful of spending the money as a wise taxpayer that I am. I wouldn't want my money wasted."

Which Fast Food Joint Is Fastest?
(NEW YORK) -- Which fast-food joint is the fastest of them all?
Wendy's takes the crown with an average 129.75 seconds, according to Quick Service Restaurant (QSR) Magazine's annual Drive-Thru Performance Study of six national fast-food chains and one rotating brand. This year, that brand was Del Taco. Burger King came in seventh, barely hanging onto its crown with 201.33 seconds.
A call to Burger King for comment wasn't immediately returned.
By averaging the times during 318 visits to Wendy's, QSR Magazine found that Wendy's was 20 seconds faster than second-place Taco Bell.
However, speed may not be everything. One commenter on the QSR Magazine website stated, "I will take freshness and quality over speed every time!"
The magazine and Insula Research conducted the survey by visiting each restaurant between 203 to 362 times.
The fast-food industry doesn't exactly have an equivalent to the computer chip industry's Moore's law, which predicted in the 1970s that processing power would double every two years. Complex menus have contributed to a plateau in drive-thru speed for the last seven or eight years, the magazine states.
A statement from Burger King noted that it "prides itself on providing excellent products and great service to all of our guests."
"As part of our HAVE IT YOUR WAY promise, we offer great-tasting products that are fresh and made-to-order for each guest; from flame-grilled hamburgers to smoothies and frappés," Burger King said. "The level of customization may delay the drive-thru experience."
QSR's other ratings included order accuracy, favorable exterior, condition of landscaping, speaker clarity and customer service. Here is its ranking of restaurants by average service times:
1) Wendy's
2) Taco Bell
3) Bojangles'
4) Krystal
5) McDonald's
6) Chick-fil-A
7) Burger King

Research in asthma has focused on the airways, however, little is known about how regional pulmonary perfusion changes during an asthma attack. Recent studies from our lab using positron emission tomography (PET) functional imaging have shown for the first time that dramatic perfusion redistribution, away from patchy areas of low ventilation, take place in spontaneously breathing human subjects with asthma during methacholine-induced bronchoconstriction.
The long-term objective of this research is to understand the mechanisms of, and factors that modify, the regional perfusion redistribution during bronchoconstriction in asthma. The main hypotheses to be tested in this project are:
These hypotheses will be tested using state-of-the-art PET-CT functional imaging of regional perfusion and ventilation with the following specific aims:
This research is designed to improve our understanding of the mechanisms that match blood flow and airflow in the lungs during an asthma attack and how these change during recovery from an asthma attack. Knowledge of this important lung function may lead to improved asthma therapy and possibly reduce asthma-related deaths.

In Defense of the CEO
Chauffeur-driven limousines, millions in stock options, golden parachutes. It's no wonder bosses' pay and perks can rankle. Here's why the best ones are worth it.
A $90,000 area rug, a pair of guest chairs that cost almost as much, a $35,000 commode and a $1,400 trash can—these are just a few of the expenses from a remodeling of John Thain's office when he took over as Merrill Lynch's chief executive officer in December 2007. The total bill came to an astonishing $1.2 million—about the price of five average single-family homes.
Those same remodeling expenses contributed to Mr. Thain's resignation just over a year later, after Bank of America bought Merrill, and helped to define the...

Neoplatonist philosopher and mystic
Plotinus, born and raised in Egypt, studied philosophy in Alexandria. After briefly joining the Roman expedition in 244 against the Persians, with the idea of learning about Eastern philosophies, he settled in Rome where he single-handedly tried to revive the classical Hellenistic philosophy as an antidote to the ruin and misery of the crumbling world around him. Because it was based on the views of Plato, the philosophical movement which Plotinus founded came to be called Neoplatonism.
Under the auspices of the Emperor Gallienus, Plotinus became extremely influential throughout the Roman Empire and for a time it seemed as if his mission would succeed. At one point the Emperor agreed to let him build a second city near Rome, based on Plato's Republic, to be called Platonopolis. It would have been the center for the new philosophical revival. But then, suddenly, for reasons unknown, the Emperor withdrew the offer. Plotinus turned instead to writing.
Plotinus stands at the crossroads between the Greek tradition spanning the seven centuries from Thales to Sextus Empiricus and the beginning of Christendom. Although he did not begin writing until he was forty-nine, his works, edited posthumously by his student Porphyry into fifty-four books called the Enneads, covered every major branch of philosophy except politics. In them, under the influence of all the ancient thinkers, especially Parmenides and Pythagoras, Plotinus tried to resurrect Plato's philosophy. Plotinus' works importantly influenced the Catholic theology that came with the end of the Roman Empire and the subsequent Christian era of the Middle ages.
Works by Plotinus
Plotinus is often accredited as the founder of Neo-Platonism. In an attempt to revive Platonic thought, this third century philosopher and mystic wrote about issues such as virtue, happiness, reason, body, and soul, with Plato's philosophy as his guide. Like Plato, Plotinus had much disdain for material things and instead embraced the idea of a higher realm of immaterial intelligibility. Plotinus located the source of creation in a supreme "One." Plotinus believed this "One" transcended being, nonbeing, multiplicity, and division. The Enneads were compiled by Plotinus' student, Porphyry, who gathered together his teacher's essays and arranged and edited them himself. These writings had a significant impact on the religious metaphysicians and mystics from the ancient world. Plotinus has also influenced many thinkers of Islam, Indian Monism, and the Eastern Orthodox Church.

The 2013 Parapsychological Association (PA) grants competitions have come to a close, and two grant proposals supporting research on macroscopic psychokinetic phenomena have been awarded. The Gilbert Roller Fund will be supporting research that continues the investigation of the Felix Experimental Group and assesses the application of digital imaging to investigate mediumistic psychokinetic phenomena. Each research initiative will explore areas that have far-reaching implications for furthering the science of parapsychology and understanding the nature of consciousness.
Stephen Braude (Emeritus Professor of Philosophy and Former Chair of the Department at the University of Maryland Baltimore County) will continue research on the apparent manifestation of anomalous physical phenomena in the Felix Experimental Group. The phenomena are principally attributed to Kai Muegge, a medium in the group. Previous trips to sit-in with the group have produced video footage of anomalous events, as well as observations of various physical phenomena such as moving lights and moving target objects. The Gilbert Roller grant will enable Dr. Braude to return to Europe and sit with the Felix Group again to investigate Kai's mediumship under tightly controlled conditions.
Mark Boccuzzi (Co-Founder, Windbridge Institute) will explore the potential application of digital infrared thermographic imaging in the investigation of macroscopic psychokinetic phenomena during field investigations of physical mediumship. In previous research of this type the medium's need for near-complete darkness has been a previous point of criticism. The use of new passive low-lighting technology may aid in the documentation of apparently anomalous events in sittings with physical mediums and thereby produce visible images for continued study. Boccuzzi will use the new tech in ongoing investigations of table-tipping and other physical phenomena that have been reported to in the presence of a Windbridge Certified Research Medium (WCRM).
Funding for these grants was made possible through a generous donation from Mrs. Marion Roller. The Gilbert Roller Fund supports scientific field investigations into macroscopic psychokinetic phenomena such as those reported in sitter-groups, séances, and poltergeist activity, and/or theoretical approaches to help explain the nature of such large-scale effects, and is administered by the Board of the Parapsychological Association. Donations to support the Gilbert Roller Fund can be made by contacting Executive Director Annalisa Ventola at email@example.com.

You have a small apartment, but want to change the interior design so that it really makes for a comfortable living area. But for an area so small you need some interior design ideas that gives the illusion of an apartment larger than it really is.
The first thing to do before thinking of interior design ideas is to consult with your landlord or employer, and what you can or cannot do. It really pertains to the specific restrictions on the residence where you live.
If you find the restrictions too stifling for the interior design ideas that you have, you have two basic choices. You can try to find a compromise with your employer or landlord, or you can move to another apartment.
When it appears what you can design in the apartment, you will want to collect your ideas for the interior design. First of all, you will need to think about this furniture that you have. Are you satisfied with the furniture, or do you want to get rid of it and buy new?
If you want to keep your furniture, then you will need to organize them so that you have more room. For example, if you have a big couch, you want to make sure that it is not located directly in the center of the room. Rather, make sure that you move the couch against the wall in one area to save space.
If, instead, you want to buy new furniture, it is necessary to consider the relative size of the room to the dimensions of the sofa. It's a good idea to have a large sofa, but just make certain that it does not take up all the space.

This is an easy design to stencil with a dense foam roller. For expert stenciling tips, please watch our How-to stencil videos! You'll find them extremely helpful for your stenciling project. Even beginners get great results!
Although most of our stencils do not require the use of spray adhesive, if your walls have a texture to them, this pattern could benefit from it to help minimize paint seepage (Elmer's spray adhesive seems to be the best). Make sure you shake the can well and lightly mist (not drench) the stencil, and let it dry for a moment before positioning it on the wall. This step will prevent the adhesive residue transferring to the wall. You'll need to re-mist the stencil after a few repeats. Note: you will still need to hold the stencil in place with a few pieces of blue painters tape! Adhesive by itself is not enough to hold the stencil on the wall. Clean-up tip: Spray the stencil with Simple Green to help to remove adhesive residue.
Stenciling on rough or textured walls may contribute to increased paint bleed. For more information on stenciling on textured walls, see our F.A.Q. section.
About seepage and imperfections: Even with a proper loaded roller and correct technique you might get some minor paint seepage here and there. In most cases it's not noticeable, especially from a couple of feet away and it can be easily touched up with a small brush. Don't forget that you're creating a "hand-painted wall finish". A few imperfections and some paint seepage here and there are natural and inevitable for this type of work. To avoid seepage, use spray adhesive and less paint on your roller and brush.
Did you know you can stencil your own fabric and use it for curtains, tablecloths, pillows, etc.? When stenciling on fabric, please use stencil adhesive to ensure good results. First, tape your ironed fabric to the surface so it doesn't move around while you stencil. You'll get better results with stencil brushes, but sometimes roller can work too, depending on your fabric. Add some textile medium ( sold in craft stores) to your acrylic paint. You can also get a specially formulated fabric paint, but, frankly, good craft acrylic paint with a dollop of textile medium mixed in works just as well, and costs way less! :) Let the stenciled image dry completely, 24 hours is best, then heat-set it by ironing the fabric for about 20-30 seconds on a LOW setting through the piece of cloth. Heat-setting will cure the paint and will prevent it from being washed off in the washing machine. Always experiment with a sample of your fabric first to ensure good results. We have stenciled on silk, cotton, linen and even sheer fabrics with great results. It's always better if your fabric doesn't have too much texture.
All of our stencils are made of thick, sturdy but flexible 12 mil clear plastic, reusable, easy to clean and stenciler-friendly! In our 20+ years of professional stenciling this material has proven to be far superior than any other material we used, including the industry standard 8 mil mylar.
We are certain you'll notice the difference and will love working with it, just like all the folks who already bought our stencils.
Our stencils are made to last and with proper care and storage will serve you for long time.

According to one report, Lindsay Lohan won't be making it to "The Other Side."
The star has been dropped from the film, writer/director David Michaels told TMZ.
"Our team simply chose to move on from Lindsay and we'll soon be announcing a replacement," Michaels said.
A separate source told the site they were concerned about Lindsay not being "bankable."
Other stars attached to the in-development film include Woody Harrelson, Giovanni Ribisi, Dave Matthews and Alanis Morissette.
Lindsay's next role will be in Robert Rodriguez's "Machete," due later this year.
In recent years, LiLo's been better known for her tumultuous personal life than her filmmaking, with an incident with father Michael Lohan – who arrived to her home with police to check on her 16-year-old sister, Ali — earlier this week the latest to draw headlines.

Now that the wrap has been pulled off the 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray at the Detroit auto show, uncamouflaged prototypes can safely hit public roads.
A Corvette fan in Arizona has posted two short video clips on YouTube of Stingrays he spotted on the road. Whereas the Detroit show cars were red and gray, this video shows the Stingray in blue and black.
We like the black car--all the various black-painted vents blend into a monochromatic look for the car.
They're brief, but enjoy this live action of the Stingray in the desert.

How well do you know the Code? Think you can spot violations the original installer either ignored or couldn't identify? Here's your chance to moonlight as an electrical inspector and second-guess someone else's work from the safety of your living room or office. Joe Tedesco, who has a knack for finding shoddy electrical work, did the dirty work and found this mess. Now it's your turn to identify the violation.
Find the Answer
The answer is, neither one. The 2005 NEC added a definition for handhold enclosures to cover a new rule added to Art. 314. The definition reads as follows: "An enclosure identified for use in underground systems, provided with an open or closed bottom, and sized to allow personnel to reach into, but not enter, for the purpose of installing, operating, or maintaining equipment or wiring or both."
The specific violation with the installation shown in the top photo is the metal cover has no means of attachment to the handhole enclosure (because of the missing screws). This installation violates the requirement in 314.30(D), which states the cover must weigh more than 100 pounds before it can be installed without a feature that allows you to use a tool to open it. So why doesn't the cover with the screws comply with the Code? Although this cover is securely fastened in place, it doesn't meet another requirement of 314.30(D), which states the cover must have an identifying mark or logo that prominently identifies the function of the enclosure.
In addition to the violations noted above, there's a good chance that neither of these installations meets the bonding requirements of 250.96(A). To meet this requirement, a bonding jumper must be attached to the covers. Although we can't see inside these enclosures, there's a good chance the jumper isn't there.

Cool again
I tried on Rubble eventually, although I haven't had another look at it since the weather cooled down enough to actually wear it and I haven't photographed it. I think it's OK. I'll have a look at it soon and report back.
I have been blasting on with Boxy. I'm making the seamed version, because like Jean and Sally Melville I think that garments hang much better if they're properly structured and seams help to give them structure. I don't seem to hate purling at all nowadays, and in fact probably feel exactly the same about purling as I do about knitting. Also, something with as many stitches as Boxy would get wildly twisted if knitted in the round, and I would get RSI in my shoulder, so flat it is.
I spent some time labouring over what size to choose, peering at other people's choices, but I eventually decided to do as Joji says, and chose the size that fits my arm circumference even although it's a bit bigger elsewhere. I'm making it slightly shorter than the pattern: the largest size is three inches longer than the smallest and one of the things I learnt from watching What Not To Wear is that long tops make your legs look short. Well, maybe not your legs, but certainly mine.
The purl rows at the shoulder don't really show up because of the marl, but I expect they add to the structure too. The pattern is well written and even I didn't make any mistakes doing the second side. At least, I don't think I did.
The yarn is lovely. The two plies are fairly loosely twisted together but I expect them to fluff up and become more dense once it's finished and washed: it needs a hand-hot wash to get the oil off. It's not totally cashmere-soft at the moment but certainly very nice to work with, and very airy. If the shape turns out to be a terrible mistake I can just chop the arms off and use it as a blanket.
Last Tango in Halifax is being shown in the US and they're filming a second series. I think I was watchhing The Fall last time I wrote; it was terrifiic but I hope I'm not giving anything away if I say the last episode was a huge letdown. What Remains finished on Sunday and we're still reeling from the ending.
Those of you who follow the Idiosyncratic Fashionistas and live in the UK might like The Fabulous Fashionistas documentary showing on Channel 4 this week, on - oh, tonight, at 10.00.I expect it'll be available on 4OD.
And on Wednesday there's a doco on BBC4 called Knitting's Golden Age. It seems to be the first in a series about textiles but the website isn't giving much away, and the Radio Times mention is full of the usual patronising nonsense, but we shall see.
Family Snaps
Thanks very much for the comments about the photographs. Yes, I'm very lucky, Mette. I wish I were well enough to organize them properly and annotate them, but at least I can post some of them here. Here's another one.
This is my great-grandfather, Robert Glen, in the late 1920s. He's the one in the wing-collar, bowler hat and very shiny shoes. He was a butcher and cattle-dealer so those must be some of his beasts, as we used to say in Scotland. His son married the dark-eyed girl you saw in an earlier post. He was still working when he died on the 2nd of July 1929, at the age of 94, and he only died because his wife had died on the 13th of June. My grandfather buried them 3 weeks apart.

I agree, a good side seam suits a nice sweater. I enjoyed The photo of your grandfather and the story about him.

Love seeing the photos. I am always struck by how formally dressed folks were. It must have been just as hot and uncomfortable for them as it is for us. I have become more and more enamoured of seams. For instance, ripping out means just one sleeve or one cardigan front, not the whole damn thing. Must check out Halifax.

I keep looking at Boxy and think I should knit one up soon and there will be seams! Your Boxy is lovely! One never goes taking advice from Sally Melville. Cheers! Dawn

You had me at black and white marled cashmere. Yum!
On an unrelated note, my older daughter has begun talking about going to Oxford next summer for a two-week program, and then college "somewhere in Britain". St. Andrew's has been mentioned. I keep smiling and swallowing hard, and figuring a) college is still nearly two years away, and b) I like visiting there, right?

Press conference quotes: Jorge Vergara
On why he and Angelica Fuentes decided to take full control of Chivas USA:
There was a divorce between Chivas USA and Chivas Mexico. They stopped using the resources and the knowledge that Chivas Mexico had to offer. One example is that I offered Chicharo [Javier Hernandez] to Preki for one season and he declined it saying that he wasn't good enough.
We believe in the project, we believe in MLS and we're certain of the success the team will have in MLS and the league but the past few years have been unsuccessful.
We started this project with Chivas USA a couple of years ago and these past years, it's gone out of the road we thought it would go. Angelica and I decided to buy out the remaining half because of this. We wanted to make this dream come true and once again, we have that chance. This is a challenge, but we take on it with a lot of excitement.
We didn't invest in the club for nothing. We know what we can do and that we can get to where we want it to go. I believe this is going to be a better opportunity for us to start at zero and build ourselves up.
On why the club has not been able to stand-out:
We understand the different situations that took the team into the wrong direction. We're going to choose the coaching squad; we've already began the process with Johan Cruyff and the Dutch consultants to create a team of leaders that identify the team's cultures. Considering that Chivas USA is a team of a mix of cultures; from Hispanic immigrants, Mexicans, Colombians, Salvadorans, etc. and we want to create a factor of success in the unity of cultures and identification with those cultures. We are going to recreate Chivas USA as an extension and success for Chivas fans in the United States.
We can't be any worse. The team has broken all records; from most goals received to longest losing streak. A member of the community told me earlier this morning that seeing Chivas USA on the field was like waking up with a different wife every morning because Chivas didn't use the same line-up for more than one game.
On the team's past performances:
They [Chivas USA] tried to imitate the style of play from other MLS teams; they played more physical, the qualities of the US players and they forgot to use the technical advantage and speed of Hispanic players. We didn't play like they do in the US, or Mexico and the failure of that is in this last season.
Who's choosing the team's next coach:
A decision will be made based on the necessities of Chivas USA. With their [Dutch consultants] profound knowledge in soccer, and the administrative and marketing support from us, we'll find our right coach.
On the development of Chivas USA's Youth Academy:
All changes are for the club, as well as Youth Academy. What we're doing in Mexico and with the Dutch group, we're going to implement it here. We need to improve our scouting in the American market; we haven't done that very well. There is many unfound talent and we need to pull them into Chivas, make them believe in the project, develop programs like 'ChivaBarrio' that count with over 20,000 low-income children and we adapt that here in the United States.
How often fans will get to see Vergara in Los Angeles:
Fans will see me a lot more in Los Angeles, we're going to make this our second home. There will definitely be more involvement on our part.
On the team's future in LA:
There has been various cities that have offered us a home, specifically one in Texas. But it's clear why we chose Los Angeles. In the beginning, we paid an extra fee to be in Los Angeles and that's where we remain. This is where we have our fan base and we're not moving. We have the advantage in Chivas USA of having many nationalities; we can promote players of other nationalities, which by the way, is already happening.
Soccer wise, it's simple. We need the team to perform on the field, play spectacularly and most importantly, get the wins, be the champion. Our goal is that in the next two years, we get to the MLS Cup final and grow from there.

Escape From Tomorrow
Available on VOD beginning Oct. 11
A sensation when it debuted at Sundance this year, writer-director Randy Moore's film stars Roy Abramsohn as a stressed-out family man who endures a harrowing, surreal day at an amusement park, where he keeps seeing shadowy figures and discreet decadence. The big hook is that Moore shot most of it guerrilla style, taking his cameras, cast and crew into the actual Disneyland and Walt Disney World, posing as a tourist. Frankly, the backstory is better than the film itself, which is repetitious and more than a little heavyhanded in its critique of Disney's power and omnipresence. That said, the use of actual locations does give this movie a real charge — as does the striking black-and-white imagery, which is enhanced by trippy computer effects.
Europa Report
Magnolia, $26.98; Blu-ray, $29.98
Another example of the innovative, intelligent sci-fi films that have become blessedly frequent in recent years, director Sebastián Cordero's half-mockumentary/half-found-footage work reconstructs a doomed space mission using "news reports," "interviews" and "on-ship surveillance recordings." The result feels a little drier than the typical interstellar thriller, but "Europa Report" also achieves a rare verisimilitude with its documentary re-creations. Even though it features recognizable actors (including Sharlto Copley, Michael Nyqvist and Embeth Davidtz), it looks like a real mission, which only adds to the drama when things start to go very wrong. The DVD and Blu-ray add deleted scenes and a featurette about the film's special effects.
The Hangover Part III
Warner Bros., $28.98; Blu-ray, $35.99
Available on VOD beginning Oct. 8
The good news is that this is better than the exhausting "Part II," which merely repeated the plot of the first film in a new location. The bad news is that the third film is still pretty dire. The bad-luck buddies played by Bradley Cooper, Ed Helms and Zach Galifianakis return to Las Vegas (after a detour through Mexico) and get embroiled in a caper plot involving their old nemesis Leslie Chow (Ken Jeong). This is more or less just a loud, violent, generic action movie, with few laughs and little rooting interest in any of the principals, who have long since ceased to be sympathetic and have become merely grotesque. The outtakes, extended scenes and tongue-in-cheek featurettes on the DVD and Blu-ray are just as tiresome.
The Purge
Universal, $29.98; Blu-ray, $34.98
Available on VOD beginning Oct. 8
Sci-fi and horror films don't always have to be good to become big hits; sometimes they can just be interesting. Writer-director James DeMonaco's low-budget thriller predicts a future America where all of the nation's major problems are solved thanks to a government-sanctioned 12-hour annual nationwide crime spree. Ethan Hawke is very good as a well-to-do family man who sells security systems, and when the hero's own home is threatened during "the purge," the movie raises provocative questions about whom society protects and who gets hung out to dry. The DVD and Blu-ray tack on a featurette that explores this idea further.
After Earth
Sony, $30.99; Blu-ray, $35.99
Available on VOD beginning Oct. 8
American Horror Story: Asylum
20th Century Fox, $49.98; Blu-ray, $59.99
Stuck in Love
Millennium, $28.99; Blu-ray, $29.99
Available on VOD beginning Oct. 8
