Maison Ilan on Anthony Bourdain's No Reservations, Burgundy Episode: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uwZYWCbJOCo We are on around the 33 minute Mark but this whole episode was excellent! This is where I met both Chefs Ludo and Tony. Both of them are just as you see on the show, no TV characters, just real people who love and enjoy so many parts of life. This shared attitude is something that I think brought us all together.
I've had countless people tell me how much they enjoyed the episode. You'd think that it would be something that I would be able to get used to. But I've watched every single No Reservation and Layover since they originally aired and so for me, it is all too surreal. It really was an experience that I'll never forget.
Thank you Tony, Ludo and everyone over at Zero Point Zero for including me on the show.

Today marks the last day of my "staycation." I am sad to think that I must go back to work tomorrow morning, but at the same time, I find myself wondering where the time went over the last several days. I guess that I regretted not doing more when I had the chance, but I needed the extra rest that I got over that time. I am thinking about any last-minute things to do on this last day away from work. I don't know that anything will happen, I will just let things play themselves out.
I know that I needed the break from everything. My writing took a hit since I deliberately wanted to get out of my routine. One thing that I have already decided is that I will not travel tomorrow morning to the clients' offices. I go there almost every single week, and I do deserve a break from that to catch up on things in the morning. I will send them an email tomorrow morning informing them of my decision and letting them know that I will see them next week.
The only real downside to the staycation was that Hal still had to work. We made time for each other regardless, and I would not change the time we had together at all. I enjoyed sleeping in late and not having to stress about other people on the job. I needed that break from things to clear my mind and to restore my sanity.
I have been careful to monitor how much I let the outside world intrude over the last few days. The latest round of chaos wasn't affected by my lack of attention; I am sure of that.
And so, as I listen to some Jazz this morning, I am mentally preparing myself for the end of staycation. I will make sure to arrange another staycation soon.

For the orchid, I stamped with Versamark on Island Indigo card stock and then heat embossed using Copper Embossing Powder. After die cutting with the Orchid Builder Framelits, I adhered the flower using Dimensionals.
Next, I die cut a square from Cajun Craze using the #4 square die from the Stitched Shapes Framelits. The orchid was adhered to it using Dimensionals.
A matte of Island Indigo was dry embossed using the new Garden Trellis Embossing Folder and then a strip of the Copper Trim was pulled apart to create a ruffle and then run down the front of the matte and taped in the back. This matte was then adhered with Dimensionals to a Copper Foil matte and then to a Cajun Craze card front.
The stitched square was adhered over top of the Copper Trim using Foam Adhesive Strips. The sentiment was stamped on Island Indigo and heat embossed with copper. The Triple Banner Punch flagged each end and then was matted with a flagged piece of Cajun Craze. It was adhered to the embossed matte using double Dimensionals.
A matte of Very Vanilla was used for the inside of the card. The leaves from the stamp set were stamped on two corners using Versamark and embossed with copper. The edges were then sponged with Island Indigo before adhering the matte to complete the card.
One strange result of the embossing on this card is that the orchid almost looks like a face–spooky!
Do you like the color scheme of this card? I think that Island Indigo and Cajun Craze look wonderful together! If you like, save the color scheme for your own projects.

On our continuing quest to make all of your favorite recipes grain-free and low glycemic, we found a request that was surprisingly common… pumpkin bread.
If you're looking for a moist and hearty paleo-approved Pumpkin Bread that's packed with pumpkin… and not sugar, then look no further.
With it's moist and tender texture and rich, fragrant spices, pumpkin bread is a soul-warming comfort food that makes the perfect afternoon snack or breakfast accompaniment. It's also loaded with powerful antioxidants, thanks to beta-carotene rich pumpkin and chart-topping cloves, cinnamon and allspice.
Unfortunately, however, those healthy benefits are typically negated by heaps of sugar and flour, transforming a potential superfood… into junk food.
In today's recipe, we've punched up the pumpkin and spices – while slashing the sugars and starches – to make an authentic tasting pumpkin bread that you can enjoy without a moment's guilt.
Superfood Paleo Pumpkin Bread: All of the Antioxidant Goodness, None of the Junk
Packing a full cup of pumpkin per loaf, this dense bread does best when fully cooled and sliced to retain its structure. If you prefer, feel free to reduce the amount of pumpkin to 2/3 cup to lighten up the loaf.
Either way, you'll get a great-tasting superfood bread that is easy on the blood sugar and friendly to the waistline.
Best of all, it takes just a few minutes to whip up!
Paleo Pumpkin Bread: The Step By Step
Like all of the recipes we create here at Wellness Bakeries, the preparation method is simple and there won't be much to clean up!
Preheat your oven to 350 F and line a 7.5 x 3.5 inch loaf pan with unbleached parchment paper (spread a few drops of your favorite oil over the paper to help keep it in the pan).
In a medium bowl, add the eggs, melted coconut oil, vanilla, pumpkin puree, Erythritol and stevia. In another bowl, add the Miracle Mix and spices.
Blend the wet ingredients on high speed using a hand held mixer. Add the dry ingredients to wet and blend until smooth.
Spread into your lined loaf pan and pop into the preheated oven…
Bake for about 40 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean. Here's what your loaf will look like…
- 4 pastured eggs
- ½ cup virgin coconut oil, melted
- 1 cup pumpkin puree (240 g)
- ¼ cup Erythritol, powdered
- 30-40 drops liquid stevia extract (to taste)
- 1½ cup Miracle Mix (160 g)
- 2 tsp. vanilla extract
- 1 Tbsp. ground cinnamon
- 1 tsp. ground nutmeg
- ¼ tsp. ground allspice
- Preheat oven to 350 F. Line a 7.5 x 3.5 inch pan with unbleached parchment paper.
- In a medium bowl, add the eggs, melted coconut oil, pumpkin puree, Erythritol and liquid stevia. Blend on high speed with a hand held mixer to fully combine.
- In a small bowl, combine the Miracle Mix and spices.
- Add dry ingredients to wet and blend to a smooth batter.
- Spread into lined pan and transfer to the oven.
- Bake 40-45 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.
- Cool on a wire rack for 10 minutes, then remove loaf and cool directly on wire rack before slicing.

Hello everyone!
Time for the weekly fishing report! As usual, we start off with the first thing everyone wants to know – what's the water been doing?
As you can see, they ran quite a bit more water earlier in the week, tapering off over last weekend. Since 3300 CFS is the maximum (avg) one generator puts out, you can see over the 28th to the 30th, they spiked up to around 6 generators, my kinda fishin'! Then, on the 31st, they dropped it down to nothing, then spiked it. Guests reported that day (31st) the fishing being a little off, especially in the afternoon.
It's been fairly stable the last few days, as you can see, with the water low in the morning, and coming up later in the day.
Spin (Bait) Fishers – on sunnier days, the power micetails in pink and white have been working well, and shrimp is coming back into fashion… One new thing also working well is Gulp Fat Floating Troutworms in Natural (with the liquid). On the overcast days, smelt have been doing better, along with natural redworms. Sculpins if you can catch them… 🙂
Lure Fishermen – bright days, rainbow and gold/black floating OR sinking Rapalas (size and sink/float will depend on if the water is up or down). Overcast days, silver/black is the ticket, along with anything that looks like a minnow.
Fly fishermen – y2k's, large streamers, and woolly buggers. Again, size and color dependent on the conditions of the moment. Typically, dark colors on darker days, and larger sizes with larger flows.
To sum it up, with the exception of one day last week, fishing has been good. Again this last week we alternated between sunny and overcast, lower and higher water. When the water is changing, and one moment sunny, the next overcast, know that you might need to change up a little bit, and you'll have a great time on the White River!

The Dirt Of Sin
We all know women whose homes are always immaculate and men whose offices and garages are always pristine. Those people obviously hate dirt. God is the cleanest Being that exists. He hates sin and calls it uncleanness.
Habakkuk 1:13: Thou art of purer eyes than to behold evil, and canst not look on iniquity: wherefore lookest thou upon them that deal treacherously, and holdest thy tongue when the wicked devoureth the man that is more righteous than he?
1 Thessalonians 4:7: For God hath not called us unto uncleanness, but unto holiness.
Because God hates sin He wants to eliminate it from our hearts and lives. He eliminates it from our hearts and then eliminating it from our lives should become a cooperative effort between us and Him.
Charles Svoboda: Salvation is like taking a bath on the inside; you don*t want to go out right away and get dirty again.
God and God alone purifies our hearts.
Acts 15:8-9: And God, which knoweth the hearts, bare them witness, giving them the Holy Ghost, even as he did unto us; 9 And put no difference between us and them, purifying their hearts by faith.
1 John 1:9: If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.
After He purifies our hearts He wants us to keep them clean and We can get His help in doing that by asking for it in prayer.
Matthew 6:13a: And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil: . . .
1 Corinthians 10:13: There hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to man: but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to bear it.
1 Timothy 5:22b: . . . keep thyself pure.
James 1:27: Pure religion and undefiled before God and the Father is this, To visit the fatherless and widows in their affliction, and to keep himself unspotted from the world.
Praise the Lord that because He hates sin there will be none in heaven, not even in us when we get there.
Revelation 21:27: And there shall in no wise enter into it any thing that defileth, neither whatsoever worketh abomination, or maketh a lie: but they which are written in the Lamb*s book of life.
Jude 1:24: Now unto him that is able to keep you from falling, and to present you faultless before the presence of his glory with exceeding joy,
Care to discuss Dirt Of Sin, The with Ron?

The beginning of something is always hard, especially when it comes to home renovations. Deciding how and where to start when all you have is a dream for your home, makes it even harder. For this reason, we've created a guide to help you with those first initial steps for planning your home renovation. Once you actually get started on the renovations, you're on your own, but for now, read on to help you get started on planning your home renovation.
- Make a wish list
Making a wish list is the best way to get dreaming for your renovation. This can be especially helpful for those of you who don't really know what you want from a renovation. Take a walk through your home or flat, and start taking some general notes about what you like and dislike about each room.
In your lounge, think about the way the space fits your lifestyle. Do you spend much time in it? Is it where you like to gather in the evening as a family? If so, you might want to think about adding double glazing windows to keep the room cozy and warm in the winter.
Don't forget about your outdoor potential renovation space as well. Are you thinking about adding a spa in the near future, or space for an outdoor fireplace? Make sure there's plenty of room in your yard to allow for these dreams as well, especially if you're expanding any rooms indoors which could use up valuable outdoor space.
- Create some visuals
Now that you've made some notes and nailed down your wish list, it's time to start visualising the wish list. You can do this in a few different ways, old fashioned or new. An old fashioned way that is still tried and true is to create a vision board. When you see something you like in a magazine, or a pattern in a shop, ask for a sample of it or cut it out of the magazine and place it on your vision board. This physical way of dreaming up your renovation can really help you start putting together what you want out of your renovation.
Basically an online version of a vision board is an online board where you can keep things you see online in one place. Try using something like Pinterest to get you started, and branch out to other websites as you fancy.
Another exciting way to visualise your renovations, using technology, is to use different renovation planning apps. Take a look at this list of planning apps to get you started. The great thing about these apps is the ability to plan out exactly how much room you'll have pre and post renovation, and to arrange your home without tearing down any walls quite yet.
- Visit showrooms, get quotes from various designers
Okay, so you might be a little bit sick of the dream and vision board stage of your home renovation, but bear with it for a little bit longer. This is the part where you get to see things in action. Go visit designer showrooms and designer furniture stores. Even popping down to a local shop like an IKEA, if you have one nearby, will help you start visualising how a room pulls together in different ways.
Another really great benefit of visiting a showroom is being able to meet with interior decorating specialists. You can obtain quotes from them for any decorating you need, or assistance with planning your renovation, and maybe even get some free advice. Developing a network of designers and builders can help you get a better feel for costs and timelines.
- Consider relocating any major appliances
When you're getting a rough idea of the renovations you're going to make, start thinking about where your appliances are situated. Especially important for a bathroom or kitchen renovation, you'll need to be aware of where and how your pipes are situated, or if you'll be needing to move something like your heat pump or air conditioning unit. Knowing where your appliances and pipes are, and if you can move them, will help you make some big decisions for your kitchen and bathroom renovations.
- Make a budget
Time to get down to business. How much money can you afford to spend on this renovation? Part of the problem with budgets is that you can't really create one until you know what you want to do, but you might already be invested in what you want to do before you create the budget. This can mean you'll have to make some sacrifices on your wishlist to fit your newly created budget. Avoid this by making a budget as quickly as possible, once you have your basic renovation ideas in mind.
- Decide on separate contractors or a building company
Your next decision, once you have a budget to work with, is to decide who to hire for your renovations. If you're rather handy, and have a good background of successful renovations on your own, you may just want to hire out a specific contractor for work you don't know how to do. If this is your first renovation project, you may find it easier to go with one renovation business who organises the contractors for you.
- Organise the after renovation work
Once you've started work on your renovation, you'll want to make sure that your home and furniture looks beautiful and new after the work is done. Stay on top of this by organising post renovation work to be done immediately after. For example, hire some painters to come in and paint your new room or touch up the walls where you tore something down.
If you're dramatically changing a room, you might want to think about hiring an upholstery specialist as well. A reupholstered couch, for example, can completely change the tone of the room and tie the new renovation together, without having to purchase brand new furniture or update your flooring.
Once you've completed these seven steps, you've made a significant leap forward to finishing your home renovation and enjoying it. Keep the momentum going by meeting with potential renovation builders and contractors, and get started on the home of your dreams!

GMS sponsored the select Bill McLaren Foundation XVs in a special match against the UAE Rugby National XV earlier this year, with the match an integral component of the UAE Rugby Asian 5 Nations 2013 preparations. Much to the delight of GMS, the select team beat the UAE team, 50/12.
Bill McLaren was known throughout the world as 'The Voice of Rugby' thanks to his distinctive tone and imaginative commentary of the game. The Foundation was set up in his memory and continues to be a prominent charitable organization globally.
Duncan Anderson, chief executive at GMS, says: "Congratulations to both teams for a great match and well done the select team! We were delighted to contribute to the Bill McLaren Foundation, which encourages young people throughout the world to get involved in the game of rugby union and the sporting values that come with it. If we as a company assisted the Foundation while helping the UAE prepare for an important competition, then we scored twice."

By NY Staff
Printed press faces a huge challenge during Ramadan due to a lack of popular interest in printed media and a general preference for reading the Holy Quran and other religious books. Paper media suffers serious financial losses in this period as sales decline considerably, placing limitations on the ability of newspapers to pay employee salaries and cover printing costs. In order to face these challenges, owners of newspapers tend to reduce the number of printed issues during the month as well as the number of pages in each issue. Some agencies include supplements featuring religious, historical and thought-provoking content. Others organize competitions complete with daily prizes.
Journalists explain the unpopularity of newspapers during Ramadan in the context o the holy month itself. Ramadan is a chance for journalists to take a rest from the political conflicts they witness during the rest of the year. Journalist Azzoz Al-Samei'e, who writes regularly for Al-Jomhoria Newspaper, says that diminished newspaper sales are a product of readers' desires as well as the psychological situation induced by hunger during the day. "The choices newspapers provide are limited, but they can improve their readership by publishing various supplements, including foods and recipes," he suggested.
Recent reports showed comparatively low rates of newspaper purchase, which affects the financial status of the newspaper owners. This decrease is compounded by the loss of ad revenue to television stations, who increase their airing of commercials during Ramadan. Additionally, the spread of private channels will also exacerbate the suffering of printed press. Sport journalism suffers, as stated by Ali Al-Hamly, Editor in Chief of Al-Riada weekly newspaper. "We have to reduce the number of pages as well as the amount of printed issues but can never stop publishing during Ramadan," he explained. Al-Riada fights the Ramadan slump through annual competitions intended to attract readers to buy the newspaper.
Similarly, store-owners suffer their own recession during Ramadan and share the loss with newspapers. The owner of Al-Yamamh Library, a newspaper and magazine store, says he can barely cover his rent and personal expenses during Ramadan due to low consumer interest. Al-Yamamh is forced to develop alternative product lines just to attract customers.
Readers also have their choices, states Fares Al-Shairy. Ramadan's particular circumstances lower the reading of newspapers against people's other priorities. "My activities during daytime include reading the Quran and other books and watching T.V programs at night while chewing qat," he noted.

It just seems very appropriate that while I am currently flying over America at an altitude of 30,000 feet on my way to Las Vegas that my first guest post is from a guy that seems to live his life in airplanes, and is also a frequent business and world traveler. In fact, he goes by the name "The Guy" and his blog is one that I do enjoy reading. Terrific posts and pics that describe his travels, whether it be the cities he explores, the airlines he takes, or the trials and tribulations of getting around. Give his blog a read, as he offers some great tips if you are looking to travel abroad. Plus, he occasionally goes on a rant as I do!
Take it away Guy! (I sure do love in-flight wifi!)

As a part of our ongoing CSR initiatives, we have adopted seven Traffic Training Parks (total participant 3,50,000 +) at Gurgaon, Delhi, Lucknow, Hyderabad, Rourkela, Nashik and Nagpur for holistic road safety programmes.
We also conduct various safety training modules for school/college students and general two-wheeler riders.
The Traffic Training Parks are equipped with Riding Simulators, Safety Riding Tracks, Road Stretches with varying road conditions and Safety Riding equipment.
Our trained faculty educate the participants on road safety through specially prepared audio visual aids, road sign posters, brochures and videos.
In order to supplement the efforts of the local Traffic Police & the Transport department, we organize many mega safety campaigns, like the National Road Safety Week, the UN Global Safety Week etc., in collaboration with local, national and international enforcement agencies and organizations.
Student police cadets programme:
In association with Gurgaon police, we have initiated a Student Police Cadets (SPC) programme where 2200 students from 50 schools are given not just tips and training about road safety and traffic rules, but also are trained on building various leadership and personality traits.

To make people aware of the importance of Road Safety we are running major campaigns on Road Safety on social as well as electronic media.

A carbon fibre entry has won the violin category of the German Musical Instrument Awards for the first time. The violin (pictured), by German carbon fibre specialists mezzo-forte Streichinstrumente, shares the top prize with a wooden Guarneri violin copy by Andreas Haensel. Organised by the Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and Energy, the prize will be presented during an awards ceremony at this year's Musikmesse International Trade Fair in Frankfurt on 17 April.
The judges at the Institute for Musical Instrument Making in Zwota, Saxony based their decision on playing and acoustic tests, and levels of craftsmanship. The 'Design Line' carbon-fibre violin stood out 'thanks to the innovative implementation of the basic idea, the very pleasant sound and the excellent value for money offered', while the Guarneri replica was honoured for its 'responsiveness and playability'.
The German Music Instrument Awards have been presented annually in different categories since 1991. This year, prizes were also given in the B-flat trumpet category.

Madhya Pradesh Monuments Project: Learning Through Peer Review and Collaborations
Less than two years ago, the Madhya Pradesh Monuments Project (MPMP)—a partnership between World Monuments Fund and the government of Madhya Pradesh—was an overwhelming list of 43 historic buildings spread across the Indian state that needed to be conserved. Conserving historic buildings in India is a challenge for several reasons aside from the technical and financial, including a lack of skills within the profession and varied perceptions of the communities in which heritage sites are located.
The two-day consultative workshop held in Indore on October 8 and 9 was revealing and energizing for the project coordinating team and others. Today, with over 24 conservation specialists on the job and an engaged client—the Government of Madhya Pradesh—the challenges seem surmountable. The excitement among the professionals of the possibilities of learning from each other, and a dialogue with the multi-disciplinary technical advisory committee, was palpable. The MPMP project, in addition to being a conservation project, is a large-scale demonstration of peer group sharing and multi-stakeholder learning in the field of conservation in the history of cultural heritage management in modern India.

VRF Benefits Outweigh Initial Costs
Considering the hefty upfront cost of light-commercial applications, it's difficult to imagin a variable refrigerant flow (VRF) system could ultimately save money over traditional HVAC systems. However, long-term energy savings, reliability and customizable comfort make it one of the most rapidly growing sectors of the HVAC market.

Starting her drum corps career as a member of the Norwood Park Imperials from Chicago, Marie Grana-Czapinski has made her mark in the marching arts activities as a top-notch visual adjudicator, from color guards to marching bands to drum corps.
In the 1970s and 1980s under the mentoring of DCI Hall of Fame member Donald Angelica, Czapinski worked with a variety of corps including the Finleyville Royal Crusaders, Seneca Optimists, Madison Scouts and Spirit of Atlanta, in the process gaining valuable insights as both an instructor and a judge.
Donald assigned her to the DCI World Championship judging panel in 1976 and she has never looked back. She was natural as a judge and was immediately accepted by the DCI community in the dual role of instructor and judge. Since that first opportunity, she has been a regular fixture on adjudication panels for the DCI World Championships and other major regional contests.
As a judge, Czapinski is noted for her ability to communicate clearly and concisely, the instructor at heart always eager to give the competing corps constructive feedback to improve future performances. She is widely respected for her knowledge, enthusiasm and honesty in her interactions with every drum corps, regardless of their level of accomplishment. All drum corps enjoy the same attention, boundless energy and passion she exhibits in her work.
Marie's judging tapes will always be memorable and are always in demand by the corps members to listen to after a performance, as she talks to them, cheers for them and encourages them to dig down and give their best consistently. Her insight, questions, and commentary are respectful and beneficial to the corps, yet ask you to dig deeper as a designer, instructor or performer to maximize the performance.
In more than 40 years as part of the judging community, Czapinski has served on various committees to revise and improve the DCI, BOA and WGI judging systems, as well as educate new and current adjudicators. "Marie has been integral in mentoring countless new judges and was continually on the lookout for emerging talent to join our ranks," DCI Judge Administrator John Phillips said.
With a penchant for continually educating herself with the latest skills and proficiencies in an ever-changing activity, Czapinski is one of only a small handful of judges who are qualified to judge every one of Drum Corps International's visual captions.
Marie is a co-founder of Winter Guard International, and the only person to hold Hall of Fame memberships in all 3 elite organizations: WGI, BOA and DCI.

Creating a story through pictures is every photographer's dream. For the audience to feel as though they've stepped into the subject's world and are part of someone else's story, is the ultimate achievement. Whether photojournalism, wedding photography, families or fashion, we all have a common endeavor. And through the photographs I'm sharing today, I tried to do just that - my own little story for you all to be a part of.
My lovely friend, Jennifer, agreed to pose as the subject for this styled portrait. Given that she's French, I decided to take a typical Français angle and make it truly Oh là là! I gave myself the challenge of proving that no matter where you are in the world, with a bit of thought and creativity, you can set a story wherever you like. Through the help of some props, a good location and a pretty smile, I was able to create my little French petit-déjeuner.
Where to shoot? Well, being that we're in Dubai, authentic French brasseries are few and far between. However, thanks to a suggestion by the Française herself, we ended up at the Rostang Brasserie in Atlantis. It was perfect! According to Jen, the décor was very Parisian, but they also had lovely French music playing in the background (to which Jen was singing along ;) ) and of course, an array of fresh pain au chocolats ready for us to devour :)
And so, with her red beret and of course the biography of Coco Chanel in tow, Jennifer was ready for a splendid morning sipping her café au lait. So, was my challenge of creating a mini-France in Arabian Dubai, successful? I don't know, you tell me :)

Tartare. When we look that up in the dictionary, there's an empty plate and a smiling person sitting there.
The Bison Tartare at Heyday, in the LynLake neighborhood, fits this definition aptly and it's a crowd pleaser for sure.
Before ordering it, you ought to know that this is Jim Christiansen's first solo restaurant. In the biz for 20+ years, he's worked at the likes of La Belle Vie, Sea Change and Il Gatto. What opened up his mind was his trip to Copenhagen in 2012, where he indulged in an internship that forever changed his culinary perspective. One that he has brought into Minneapolis for good.
The Bison Tartare is a strong emulation of the new American fare that Heyday is hoping to portray to its diners. With rutabaga, pistachio and corn it's a finessed plate that is well seasoned and shows respect for its ingredients.
There is so much more from this menu to go for though. Four course meals run $54 or Brunch, where you get 2 plates and a coffee or cocktail go for $28.
You'll visit this place more than once, so plenty of time to explore each dish. Bring some friends, your appetite and enjoy.

Custom Formed 30 Herrett Brass
Originally developed by Steve Herrett of Herretts Grips, the 30 Herrett is one of the first bottleneck hunting cartridges designed specifically for the short barrels of single shot handguns. Very efficient and accurate. Our brass is made from brand new, unfired 38-55 Winchester brass formed and shortened to 30 Herrett cartridge dimensions. We also have custom 30 Herrett reloading dies at a very reasonable price! Wildcat Headstamp: With the difficulty in obtaining new, unfired brass, we have used various brands including Winchester, Remington, PPU, and even Starline. Our forming process leaves the web of the case un-stretched and full strength (Unlike DIY fire-formed brass)... Use this brass, and your 30 Herrett ammo starts off with a full strength web. This brass is 30 Herrett but the headstamp reads something else. Excellent Load Performance: This brass grips and seals the chamber nicely from minimum to maximum loads. We found load development to be quite easy and predictable with this brass. Access all of our Custom Brass and Dies at our Reloading Home Page.

Claydon Drilling in Italia
Export Manager Jacob Darby recently visited first Claydon customers in Italy, from Novella Sentieri, Andrea Zorzi, Luigi Zanotti and Dr. Mattia Trevini.
The farmland is in Brescia, near Milan, and sowing has been carried out this first season using a 6m Claydon Hybrid.
The crops are fantastic and the customers are well pleased. Andrea Zorzi commented that there has been a huge increase in worm numbers and casts. This lends fertility and structure to the soil.
Please visit Galleries, Italy, Brescia for more photos (courtesy of Novella Sentieri).

Moors murderer Ian Brady is said to be at death's door and in the care of nurses specialising in end-of-life care.
Brady, 79, was jailed for life in 1966 along with his girlfriend Myra Hindley for abducting, abusing, torturing and killing five children in Manchester before burying them on nearby Saddleworth Moor.
He has been held at Ashworth high-security psychiatric hospital in Merseyside since 1985 and is reportedly receiving palliative care there.
A source told The Sun: "He is gravely ill and everyone there is prepared for him dying. He is receiving 24/7 treatment from nurses specialising in assisting patients with terminal cancer.
"Despite who he is and what he has done, they are being professional and trying to make him as comfortable as possible."
Although the nature of Brady's illness has not been publicly confirmed, he is known to have been a heavy smoker and suffers from emphysema.
In February Brady's lawyers said their client had been bedridden for several years and described him as "terminally ill".
They added he receives constant oxygen and a nebuliser four times a day.
In 2016 Brady wrote to a Channel 5 journalist, claiming he was dying from a terminal lung and chest condition.
The killer has been force fed against his will through a tube in his nose after vowing to starve himself to death in jail in 1999 and in 2014 his mental health advocate said she believed he was showing signs of dementia.
Brady was jailed for life in 1966 for the murders of three children. Hindley was convicted of two of the murders and shielding Brady after another murder, and given a life sentence. She died in jail in 2002 aged 60.
Keith Bennett, a 12-year-old abducted by Brady and Hindley in 1964, remains the only victim whose body has never been found.
Brady lost a legal bid to be transferred to a jail in 1985 on the grounds that he is mentally insane.
The NHS describes end of life care as "support for people who are in the last months or years of their life."
It adds: "End of life care should help you live as well as possible until you die, and to die with dignity."

Commercial Signs
Effective, Long-Lasting Commercial Signs: Prairie Signs
So, you've got a great product and now you want to make sure people know about it. Commercial signs are an excellent way to communicate what you have and how it will benefit customers. A smart business owner knows that a store's signs and graphics could be the difference between making a sale and customers walking out the door without spending a dime.
Branding for Corporate Buildings, Franchises, or Small Businesses
The commercial sign you choose will represent your business. There are several different types of signs, and we at Prairie Signs want to help guide you through the selection process. In sending that consistent message, you might use one of the following: point of purchase signs, A-frame signs, standing signs, display signs and wall signs are all formats you can use throughout your store.
Don't trust just anyone with your company's image. Prairie Signs has a number of experience in advertising and marketing, and we have a long list of satisfied customers. Trust us for your commercial signs.
Yes, I want unique commercial signs for my business!
Tips For Effective Commercial Signs
Perhaps the best tip we can offer is to consult with an expert in designing and providing commercial signs. Prairie Signs is a team made up of individuals with a wide range of advertising and marketing experience. We want to get to know you and your business so we can design an effective marketing strategy and commercial signage that will deliver results.
Tips From The Experts At Prairie Signs:
- Your signs should simply begin the selling process, not contain every tidbit of information. Get viewers interested and curious, but don't overwhelm them.
- With that, pick three important features or benefits, and include only those. Those benefits should differentiate your product or service from the competition (ie: why should they choose you over anyone else?)
- You may have as few as five seconds to capture a passerby's attention, and you'll likely only have 20 seconds of their attention after that, so get to the point.
- Motivate viewers. Include a call to action.
- Bright colors and bold images refreshed regularly keep your business top of mind with customers.
- Rely on an expert to walk you through the design and graphics process
In general:
Think about branding. To be effective, your sign should match your brand, be visually appealing and easy to read, and easy to maintain. At the risk of sounding like a broken record: consistency is key.
Focus on your needs. Your business signage works overtime in promoting your business so if you want to get the most from your investment, choose a style and material that is suitable for your situation, would last for years and require low maintenance.
Build for the future. You want a sign that will last - both in terms of its message and its design. You want a message that will resonate with potential customers for years to come, and you want a sign that will endure the effects of weather and time.
Lastly, understand the zoning requirements (and make sure your commercial sign provider does, too!). You should have a grasp of local zoning regulations before having one created, as there's no sense in spending time and money on a commercial sign only to have that go to waste because it didn't meet the zoning requirements.

Restaurant opens 2,500-square foot Organic Rooftop Farm – first to be Certified Organic in the USA — City Farmer News
January 17, 2009 at 5:38 am Sunny Leave a comment
Photo: Scott Stewart, Sun-Times. Helen Cameron inspects the veggies growing on the roof of her restaurant. "I come up once a day to see what's ripe," she said. Six tons of soil were carried up to the roof.
Restaurant opens 2,500-square foot Organic Rooftop Farm – first to be Certified Organic in the USA — City Farmer News: "In late July the folks at the Uncommon Ground restaurant, 1401 W. Devon, opened their 2,500-square foot organic rooftop farm. The lofty mission is to deliver organic produce for the downstairs restaurant and to use the garden to teach adult volunteers and children how to grow food organically in an urban, roof-top environment.
'There's a lot of green roofs in Chicago,' said Helen Cameron, co-owner of Uncommon Ground during a roof top tour. 'But they are not necessarily geared for full-on production and as an educational tool. We made an enormous investment with the idea of producing food for the restaurant. That's the biggest difference between us and other green roofs.'"
Got to say, it ain't often that a restaurant opens its own certified organic rooftop farm for its own use. Sure there are chef gardens like the one at St. Lawrence College in Kingston, the garden on top of the Fairmont Royal York Hotel in Toronto and others. Trent University's rooftop garden provides fresh vegetables to the Urban Spoon Cafe for the students.
This one's definitely the first to be certified organic – and I've reamed the web for awhile.

|God is Light
|Written by Wayne Teel
|Wednesday, 30 April 2014 00:00
"God is light, and in him is no darkness at all" (1John 1:5b)
In our ongoing study on the subject of truth, we notice the Bible teaches that truth is light. When we walk in the light of God's word we are obeying the truth. Truth is light and anything opposite of truth is error or darkness. Where would you rather be, in light or darkness? I believe we would all prefer the light. Why, then, do we not make a more serious effort to walk in the truth, which is the light of God's word?
Are you passionate about the truth? Do you have a strong yearning for the truth? If we do not have an overriding desire for the truth, we will not care about finding it. We live in a world of apathy. A world that says, "You believe what you want to believe and I'll believe what I want to believe and somehow we will all get to heaven together. It really doesn't matter if we have opposite views of what the truth is. We will just be nice to each other and agree to disagree and God will be happy with our attitude." This kind of thinking shows a serious lack of interest in the truth.
"O send out thy light and thy truth: let them lead me; let them bring me unto thy holy hill, and to thy tabernacles" (Psalms 43:3). "But he that doeth truth cometh to the light, that his deeds may be made manifest, that they are wrought in God" (John 3:21). These verses indicate a heart that is seeking the truth. Does this describe you?
The path we walk in this life must be lit up by the light of God's word. "Thy word is a lamp unto my feet and a light unto my path" (Psalms 119:105). Dear reader, please understand; if we do not have a serious desire for the truth, we will not find it. We will be deceived into believing a lie is the truth and we will fall for any false doctrine that comes along.
Satan is the master deceiver. He is good at his job because he has been doing it since the beginning of time. Satan has helpers in this world who work with him hand in hand. False teachers are servants of Satan. Beware!

"I shiver and I feel scared inside
When our family has to hide.
Hide inside the house all day
Because there might be a scary
I know they will take my
Close relative away.
These big men wearing green
I hear they have guns and are mean.
I fear I will get shot-
Or mommy too".
Mommy says, "Hide
Under that bed-
Cover your head!
Don't talk or move-
till I tell you what to do!"
"I can't go to church today
That is where my family and me pray.
I pray now for my family and me-
I hope tomorrow is better than today
For now I'm scared and I afraid."
Written by Suzae Chevalier on October 1, 2016
