2012 International Bluegrass Music Association's Instrumental Group of the Year, The Boxcars, along with Mandolin Player of the Year Adam Steffey will make a return performance to American Legion Post 238 in Hughesville on Jan. 27.
The show starts at 2 p.m. with special guest Charlie Thompson and host Jay Armsworthy opening the show.
The doors open at noon, and tickets are $15 per person.
The Boxcars is a ground-breaking band made up of five guys who have a sound like no one else and yet they capture the excitement of the bands that preceded them and combine it with cutting edge sounds of bluegrass today, Armsworthy said.
The result is, well, magical, he said. You can't replace chemistry between band members.
The group's second album, "All In" on Mountain Home Records, has gained the band the 2012 Instrumental Group of the Year and Mandolin Player of the Year for Steffey.
Along with Steffey, The Boxcars — Ron Stewart, John R. Bowman, Keith Garrett and Harold Nixon — make up what is surely becoming one of the top headliners in bluegrass.
With collective stints with Alison Krauss and Union Station, J.D. Crowe and the New South, Blue Moon Rising, The Isaacs and most recently The Dan Tyminski Band, the quintet starts out with an impressive rap sheet.
Legion Post 238 is on the corner of routes 381 and 231 in Hughesville. The doors will open at noon.Tickets will be sold at the door only. Food will be available for sale before the show.
For more information, go to www.americanlegionbluegrass.com or call 301-737-3004.
Nonperishable food donations will be accepted for the Helping Hands Food Bank of Southern Maryland.

Frenchman Jean-Eric Vergne blamed his Toro Rosso team for an incorrect call to use slick super-soft tyres in Q2, a decision that he said cost him a place in Q3.
"Qualifying was going quite well on my first run," said Vergne. "When I came into the pits after the long first run on intermediates, I was expecting to fit the same type of tyres, but the team opted to put me on slicks.
"I believed they had a better picture of the situation than I did, but it turned out to be the wrong choice and cost me a chance to get into Q3, which is a shame."
Vergne ended up 13th one place ahead of team-mate Australian Daniel Ricciardo.
Another disappointed driver was Briton Jenson Button, the 2009 World Champion, who qualified 10th for McLaren. "I haven't thought too much about it yet and I don't really want to," he said. "Yeah, I knew it would be tough, but I didn't expect to be 10th after I did my lap and I didn't expect to be three seconds off the pace…"
Ferrari's Brazilian Felipe Massa, who has survived a few off-the-asphalt excursions this weekend, was fourth-quickest and happy, but warned: "We have to be ready for anything. The conditions, the rain, the track… anything can happen here today."
Finnish rookie Valtteri Bottas had done well to make it into Q1 for Williams but couldn't bridge the gap to the top 10. "It wasn't the easiest qualifying session to start my Formula One career," he admitted. "It was good to get through Q1 yesterday but the conditions were tricky again today as it was getting drier all the time. We tried the supersoft tyre, but unfortunately it didn't allow us to improve our lap time. We will now focus on getting ready for the race later and will aim to do our best to get into a points-scoring position."
Closer to the front, Nico Rosberg swallowed the disappointment of being out-qualified by new Mercedes teammate Lewis Hamilton after his strong showing in free practice. "That's a good team result this morning if you compare to where we were at the end of last year, so we have made some good progress over the winter, which is down to the fantastic work of the team back at the factories," said the German. "However, we can also see that there is still a gap to the quickest team. I was very quick in the wet but later it didn't work out as well on the slicks."

Great meal at Blackfish in Conshohocken
Had another great byob meal recently at Blackfish in Conshohocken PA, which remains my favorite Philly area restaurant. It was another one of their Tuesday night $45 four-course dinners focused around a single ingredient, this time CRAB. I fear my descriptive powers fail me in the face of such wonderful cuisine, so here are a few photos.
~Wild mushroom soup shooter
~Dungeness crab in Kombu broth with a 63-degree egg (cooked at 63C to a unique consistency)
~Galette de crab "George Perrier" (a tribute to Chip Roman's mentor, it is his take on George's signature dish)
~Veal Oscar with jumbo king crab, Béarnaise sauce and trumpet mushrooms
~Manjari (a citrus-flavored chocolate from Madagascar) pot de creme with preserved orange segment
~Cheese plate (extra $) with Amazing Acres goat cheese, Manchego, drops of 100 year old sherry vinegar and beet membrillo paste
~'06 Ratzenberger Bacharacher Kloster Furstental Riesling Sekt Brut
~'07 Fritz Haag Brauneberger Juffer Riesling Kabinett
~'76 H. Josef Fries Noviander Honigberg Riesling Auslese
~'06 Giacomo Conterno Barbera d'Alba Cascina Francia
Upcoming Tuesday night dinners (I swear I'm not getting a kick-back, I just love this place!):
11.29.10 (Monday) guest chef Pierre Calmels of Bibou (I'll be there!)
11.30.10 Lobster
12.07.10 Beef
12.14.10 King Crab
12.21.10 Foie Gras
12.28.10 Lobster
Some more photos... We happened to be sitting at the "cookbook table", and it was interesting to see what sort of cookbooks Chip has collected. Plenty of obvious names, but I was disappointed not to see "Mastering the Art of French Cooking I & II". I guess you don't need it if you have the benefit of a real culinary school education, but still...
Tir, great pictures and my mouth is watering, I totally get when you find a great place to eat and you want to share it with everyone!
Thanks for the calendar of events... and, um hey if you ever need anyone to help out with those wines, just let me know!
re: cgarner
Thanks cgarner! If you haven't been, you should definitely check out Blackfish.
If I get a chance, I'll post some photos from Pierre Calmel's dinner last night at Blackfish. The house was completely packed. Not surprisingly, given the combined talents of my two favorite Philly-area chefs, it was a wonderful meal.
Passed on going again tonight for lobster. I need a few days to recover from last nights excesses (I can still taste the foie gras-stuffed pigs feet!).
Would definitely be up for a byob Chowdown sometime...
re: Tir_na_nOg
Count me in
re: Delucacheesemonger
Send me an e-mail and let's organize something...
re: Tir_na_nOg
I've heard nothing but great things about Blackfish and really need to get there.
Maybe we could organize a big Chowhound night there and take over the place?
re: mitchh
I would be totally up for that. I haven't tried it yet and I want to get over there!
re: Tir_na_nOg
I'm in!
re: phillybakingqueen
Just to throw it out there I did send an email to Blackfish asking how many people they would require for a private event and what the cost per person would be. I also mentioned that it would be a midweek event.
I'll keep you posted when I get a reply.
re: mitchh
We had several inconsistent meals at Blackfish a few years back, and have not been back since. However based on the recent reviews and menus we will definitely be going back, perhaps even joining all of you if there is a Chowhound event!!!
re: EpicurBurbs
My experience there over the past several years is one of remarkably high consistency over around 190 visits. In fact, I am quite astonished by the fact that rather often a dish comes out of the kitchen that is not merely excellent, but meets the qualitative standards my wife and I get consistently at Per Se in NY.
I cannot recommend it highly enough.
re: RocketJSquirrel
Dude, you need to occasionally try some other restaurants! ;-)
re: Tir_na_nOg
Just had great meals at Barclay Prime and Le Bec Fin (also around 200 times, in total).
Here's a secret, for those who are able to indulge. The lunch at Blackifsh. There is always a main course of fish from the regular menu for $15. Yesterday's was a superb blackish in a sauce with black truffles, crunchy on the skin side and just wonderful.Not enough? Well, we started with a large bowl of lobster bisque for $8. Not the kind watered down with this that or the other, but real, intense lobster. If you've had it, you know what I mean. There are other fun items for lunch that are quite good, but for me the opportunity to have two real courses of great food for $23 just screams bargain.

Mitchh... count me and a +1 for the Mister too
re: cgarner
I received a reply from Blackfish
Thank you for your interest at Blackfish Restaurant.
We have two rooms. One can hold 40 ppl and the other one 22 ppl max.
You can order a la carte or we can create a menu for you.
We are willing to work with your budget.
Regarding the size, I think it would be best to hold it to 20. While it would be great to get 40, to get that many people to agree to a date is going to be tough.
Regarding menu, I think we should just let them create a menu.
I guess the next step is to come up with what kind of budget we want to set and some dates. As for dates, I think it's safe to say that the rest of this month is out, so should we shoot for something in January or February?
re: mitchh
I am open to anything and everything.
re: Chefmonty
Well, I guess the question is, what's the best way to get this organized, on the forum or via email? My thinking is email, so I would ask anyone who is interested to please shoot me an email at email@example.com with
How many will be in your party
whether you would prefer to order a la carte or if you want them to create a menu (majority vote will dictate which direction we go)
Dates that specifically you specifically cannot make it
re: mitchh
Just e-mailed you, we're in!
re: mitchh
re: mitchh
Since it is BOYB, we should probably discuss a wine strategy?
re: crazyspice
Chowhound doesn't permit dinners to be organized on the board (just announced), so I suggest everyone e-mail mitchh directly...
re: Tir_na_nOg
I am well aware.
I love Blackfish - have never had a bad meal, and I am picky. I've eaten things I would never have tried before due to the limited menu (aka no red meat/steak as my fall back). The lobster tasting last week was divine....especially a compliment coming off a week at the Cape where seafood was scarfed down at every meal. The service is great. They need to expand and get a liquor license and move to Phoenixville!
re: yummykimmy
I know I'm preaching to the choir here but I had to say I really really like Blackfish. Just had my second meal there last night and it was delightful. What's not to like? Great food, great service, very nice ambience. Wish we hadn't waited so long to try it. Also wish we could afford to go there much more often. Oysters and skate both times. This is the only place in Philly I would order either, outside of a Mike Stollenwerk restaurant.
re: JanR
Had the beef tasting menu on Tuesday night at Blackfish, which continues to be a great value. The menu consisted of:
steak tartare with mustard crisps and micro greens
hanger steak on a bed of arugal with a 63 degree egg and hollandaise
sirloin steak with wasabi mash potatoes, wax beans and bordelaise sauce
molten chocolate cake
All three beef dishes were exceptional, and service was prompt but not intrusive.

Phone firm backs ex-Cumbrian woman's bottle campaign in memory of stabbed husband
Last updated at 16:17, Friday, 05 October 2012
A mobile phone company has backed a woman's campaign to ban glass bottles from late-night venues.
Jane Sherriff's husband Phil died after being stabbed in the neck with a bottle during a corporate event at a London nightclub in April.
The dad-of-two is known in Cumbria area having worked at The Link mobile phone shop in Carlisle until 2002.
The family lived at Edenhall, near Penrith, until Phil's work in the mobile industry prompted a move to Lancashire.
His widow Jane, who was a country park ranger at Talkin Tarn, near Brampton, as well as working for Defra in Cumbria during foot and mouth, is pushing forward the Bottle Stop campaign, calling for glass bottles to be banned from all late-night city centre pubs and clubs.
Having already received the backing of more than 42,000 Facebook users, mobile phone network Three UK – Phil's former employer – has added its weight to the campaign.
Employees at the company are supporting Jane in her drive to get 100,000 people to sign a petition, forcing a debate on the issue in parliament.
Originally launched by the family of club doorman Blake Golding, who was permanently scarred in a glassing attack in Milton Keynes in 2004, support has swelled following Jane's campaign launch and now boasts more than 60,000 signatures.
In memory of Phil, and to support Jane's cause, Three UK's staff also made the decision to only serve drinks in plastic cups at the after-party of their annual sales conference in Liverpool last month.
More than 700 employees attended the event with each person adding their signature to the petition.
Amanda Lambert, Three UK's sales director, said: "By supporting the Bottle Stop campaign we hope that other families won't have to go through the same tragedy as Jane and her children.
"Phil had a lot of good friends here at Three UK and the team's ability to help drive awareness and support Jane's campaign has meant a lot to everyone.
"We hope that our involvement with the initiative will encourage other companies to take similar action."
Jane, 35, said there is still a long road ahead but she has been buoyed by the level of support she has received from across Cumbria and beyond.
"The support locally has been amazing, and invaluable. With hundreds of local supporters adding their voices to our cause, I know we can make this happen," she said.
"We are determined to ban glasses and glass bottles from late night venues in order to make sure no other families have to go through the pain we have."
She urged more people to sign the petition or like the Facebook page. For details visit www.bottlestop.org.uk.

At the 2013 SSP (Society of Scholarly Publishers) Annual conference I was on a panel about research assessment and metrics. As part of my presentation I shared some findings from a large survey conducted by Elsevier's Research and Academic Relations group (methodology in the slides).
One finding the Twitter back-channel picked up on was the surprising statistic that, from this random sample, only 1% of academics were familiar with altmetrics. I followed this up with a more optimistic statistic showing that both researchers under 35 and also researchers from developing nations were more likely to view different types of potential altmetrics as useful. For this section of the talk, my primary point was that we need to focus on raising awareness among this demographic if altmetrics are to gain legitimacy in the researcher community.
Also discussed are DORA, Journal Metrics (SNIP, SJR), Snowball Metrics, and more. I summarized the primary take away points as follows:
- Choose methods + metrics appropriate to level and impact type being assessed (DORA)
- Don't confuse level with type (alms ≠ altmetrics) – Tip: Embed free Scopus Cited-By counts at article-level
- Awareness of metrics correlates to acceptance, raising awareness matters
- APAC + younger researchers open to new metrics
- Don't use just one metric, promote a variety of metrics – Tip: Embed free SNIP/SJR on journal pages
- Choose transparent and standard methods + metrics – Tip: Learn best practices from Snowball Metrics free ebook

Five Rising Actors to Watch Right Now
September 10, 2013 via Pepsi
Five Rising Actors to Watch Right Now
The 2013 summer movie season has been another big one, with wall-towall movies featuring favorite big-screen stars like Robert Downey Jr., Hugh Jackman, Denzel Washington, Leonardo DiCaprio, Brad Pitt, and more. However, there have also been a handful of breakout stars, many of whom appeared in some of the season's breakout indie hits, and seemed primed for a jump to the big time. Here's five young new stars who look like they're about to make that leap.
1. Michael B. Jordan
Without a doubt, the biggest breakout of the summer has been for Fruitvale Station star Michael B. Jordan. Directed by Ryan Coogler, Fruitvale Station, based on the tragic true story of Oscar Grant, is already being tipped as a potential best picture nominee at this year's Academy Awards. Jordan, who started his career on HBO's The Wire, and was recently seen in the superhero hit Chronicle, is also being mentioned as a potential best actor nominee. Whatever the case, he's already planning to re-team with Coogler in Creed, a hot project teaming Jordan with Sylvester Stallone, who'll be returning to his most famous role, Rocky Balboa. Jordan stars as the grandson of Rocky's former nemesis-turned-friend, Apollo Creed, who Rocky trains as a boxer to follow in his grandfather's footsteps.
2. Logan Lerman
Ok, so maybe Percy Jackson: Sea of Monsters isn't anyone's idea of a breakout hit, and while this series does seem to be more than a little played out, star Logan Lerman is on the cusp of hitting his stride as an actor to watch. While Lerman's already tried his hand at action movies (The Three Musketeers 3D) he's at his best in darker, edgier indie fare. His performance in The Perks of Being A Wallflower earned raves from the critics and proved to be a sleeper hit, while his part in the ensemble drama Stuck In Love has also been well-received. Lerman's next movie is Darren Aronofsky's Noah--with Russell Crowe in the title role--which is already one of 2014's most eagerly awaited films.
3. Greta Gerwig
Unlike many of the others on this list, Gerwig's been around for a while and is even something of an icon in the mumblecore movie scene. She's had roles in mainstream fare like No Strings Attached opposite Natalie Portman and Ashton Kutcher, and the ill-fated Arthur reboot with Russell Brand. However, it's been her performances in Noah Baumbach's Greenberg, and the recent Frances Ha (cowritten by Gerwig herself) that have drawn the most attention. Many are calling Frances Ha her best role to date, and are tipping her for an Independent Spirit Award nomination.
4. Aubrey Plaza
Aubrey Plaza is already well-known on the small screen for her part on NBC's cult comedy hit Parks & Recreation. She recently made the leap to the big screen with her movie The To-Do List. While the reception has been mixed, Plaza's previous film, Safety Not Guaranteed, earned her a trip to the Sundance Film Festival, and was warmly received by both critics and audiences. Plaza's not showing any signs of slowing down. In addition to her on-going part on Parks & Recreation, she's has no less than three movies in the pipeline for 2014.
5. Miles Teller
Miles Teller's part as the teen protagonist in The Spectacular Now has proven to be one of the breakout performances of the summer. It drew raves at Sundance, and the film's release will be expanding throughout the month. Teller's got at least three movies already in the can, including the eagerly awaited young-adult lit adaptation Divergent, which re-teams him with his Spectacular Now co-star Shailene Woodley. Teller's also been on the shortlist for several high profile projects, with one recent report even linking him to the upcoming reboot of the Marvel property Fantastic Four.

Launch Vehicle: Black Brant IX Suborbital Sounding Rocket
Launch Site: White Sands Missile Range, New Mexico
NASA Center: Johns Hopkins University Applied Physics Laboratory
Spacecraft Mass: 1,110 pounds
Spacecraft Instruments: Telescope
Spacecraft Dimensions: 24-foot
Johns Hopkins University Applies Physics Laboratory
The Far-ultraviolet Off Rowland-circle Telescope for Imaging and Spectroscopy (FORTIS) is a NASA sounding rocket mission that will obtain ultra-violet spectra of comet ISON as it nears the sun. The ultra-violet region contains particularly rich information about comet chemistry. In a suborbital flight that lasts only minutes, FORTIS can observe the comet much closer to the sun than other orbiting observatories.
FORTIS will launch from White Sands Missile Range in New Mexico, and will soar up above 60 miles high, where it will be above much of Earth's atmosphere, which would interfere with the detection of cometary emissions at far-ultraviolet wavelengths.
FORTIS will be able to look at the molecules and atoms inside the comet by taking advantage of the fact that, as the comet moves toward the sun and warms, its rate of sublimation (a process similar to evaporation in which solid matter transitions directly into gas) increases. FORTIS will observe that gas with an instrument called a spectrograph, which can separate incoming light into its component wavelengths. The intensity of light at each wavelength, in turn, corresponds to the sublimation rate of certain atoms. A series of shutters open and close throughout flight to allow the instrument to gather information from several areas at once: different parts of a galaxy, for example, or in this case different parts of the comet.
FORTIS is flying an autonomous targeting system that will locate the center of the comet on the fly and then deploy a pre-programed array of the instrument's microshutters, in order to observer 43 different locations in the comet. Overall, FORTIS will sample a region approximately 625,000 miles in diameter. This system, designed by former Johns Hopkins University graduate student Brian Fleming, uses a prototype of the microshutter arrays built by NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, Md. for the Near Infrared Spectrograph on the James Webb Space Telescope. When the instrument comes back down to the ground, the team will recover it and should be able to use it again.
The window for the FORTIS launch begins on 19 Nov. 2013, just nine days before comet ISON's close encounter to the sun. If the comet survives, it will to travel back out into space, unlikely to ever return to the inner solar system.
Editor's Note: Adapted from: A Six-Minute Journey to Study Comet ISON by Karen C. Fox (NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center, Greenbelt, Md.). You can read the full article, here.

Someone has stolen the Mach 3 (Old hole 10) that was removed from Wills Park between THU DEC 9th and SAT DEC 11th which was to be used at the next course going in at another Alpharetta Park in 2011.
The basket belongs to the city of Alpharetta, and they have offered (with my asking) to let whoever has stolen it to return it with NO QUESTIONS asked before this Friday DEC 17th at 5PM. After that time a police report will be filed and the person responsible will be charged with the crime.
If anyone in the disc golf community has any information on the basket, you may PM, Email, or call me. It is a basket that is over 6 years old, but in very good shape and someone in the area has to know that if someone has a "new" Mach 3 they just got - that it most likely is the basket from Wills Park.
It is a shame that with all the good will Disc Golfers had created with the redisgn, bridge work and all the other work done on the course in the last 3 months - that someone decides to steal the basket and ruin the reputation of disc golfers with one selfish act.
PLEASE keep your eyes open and if you see the basket or know who has it, do the right thing and bring it back before Friday, so the city will not derail the other project due to this unfortunate incident.
Thanks for any help,

"I don't normally like cooked spinach but I fell in love with this at first bite. Sooo good!"
Hmm. None of these ingredients are on sale today.

1 (10 ounce) package
frozen chopped spinach, thawed
1 bunch
green onions, finely chopped (white parts only)
eggs, beaten
1 (16 ounce) package
cottage cheese
2 cups
shredded Cheddar cheese
1/4 cup
crushed croutons
This was amazing! Made a few changes though: sauteed some chopped yellow onion and a few chopped mushrooms in a bit of oil before adding 8 oz of microwaved & drained spinach. Also threw in about 1/2 c chopped sun dried tomatoes. Drained cottage cheese and mixed in with the spinach, then poured the whole thing into a greased pie plate. I sprinkled with about 1/2 c grated asiago cheese and then poured 6 beaten eggs over the top. Baked for about 50 min at 375. The sun dried tomatoes and asiago really gave the dish a lovely flavor.
I made this for brunch today and though the texture and flavor was overall good, the spinach taste was a little too strong. If I made it again, I would cut back on the spinach.

This is great. My husband told me I outdid myself on this one. But squeeze liquid out of spinach, or it will come out when baking.
A delicious non-crust quiche. I followed the advice of an earlier poster and replaced the croutons with a mix of seasoned breadcrumbs plus grated parmesan. Delicious! The only thing I'd add is to leave about 10 minutes after cooking for the quiche to set.
Great for freezing ahead I allways make 2 and freeze the extra filling in a ziplock bag. On the day we are going to eat it I will defrost it and bake it in my pie plate
I looked at all the diffrent suggestions and just went for it with this recipe. I used Ricotta instead of cottage cheese. Since it was before payay, I mixed and matched diffrent cheeses (smoked gouda, cheddar and mozerella) till I reached 2 cups. I put it in a store bought roll out crust, and added a few cooked slices of turkey bacon in the mix, and garlic powder 1 teasp. WOW was it good. Great basic recipe to mix and match. I loved it!
I just loved this. I am a Personal Chef and after a day long cooking session I am too tired to cook. So, I tried this but added leftover artichoke hearts (chopped), feta cheese chunks, some hot sauce and for the topping used Pringles new Potato Parm chips crumbled up. It is great with tomato/red onion salad and lovely heated up the next morning in the toaster oven for breakfast. Very versitile recipe which I will be using for my clients. Chef Diane Hunter, Savannah, GA
I have been looking for a recipe to recreate the filling in Panera's spinach and artichoke souffle. This is as close as I've been able to get!! I substituted the cheese for a tub of Asiago/Parmesan/Romano blend. A whole tub made it VERY tasty but too salty. I'll do half and half with the cheeses next time. I added chopped artichoke hearts, too, and two additional eggs. This is a delicious recipe I'll be using again and again! Thanks!

translated from the Japanese by Sim Yee Chiang and Sayuri Okamoto
Excerpted from Sou-ou no In, edited by Okazaki Ikuko and published by Keiyusha (2002). By permission of Kou Reishi, Okazaki Ikuko, and Keiyusha.
Kou Reishi (born Kou Tenki) is a writer, sculptor, the president of the Taipei Haiku Association, and has the distinction of being the last living Japanese-language writer in Taiwan. Born in Tainan in 1928 when the country was under Japanese rule, Kou received his education in Japanese. While many Taiwanese writers who wrote in Japanese made their literary debut during WWII, Kou began writing in Japanese only after the war ended, at the age of 17. His output includes haiku, tanka, modern poetry, novels, and criticism, but these works have remained unpublished for decades ever since public use of Japanese was forbidden in Taiwan in 1945.
In 1970, Kou founded the Taipei Haiku Association and started publishing private editions of his works, despite censorship under the Nationalist Party's rule. Known for their wit, pathos, and humour, his works are now attracting new readers among the post-war generation, wining several prizes such as the Masaoka Shiki International Haiku Grand Prize (Japan, 2004), The Order of the Rising Sun (Japan, 2006), and the 台湾文学牛津奨 (Taiwan, 2006).
Sim Yee Chiang is a contributing editor at Asymptote. He was born in Singapore, received an undergraduate education and a master's in English from Stanford University, and researched issues of English-Japanese and Japanese-English literary translation under the auspices of the University of Tokyo, where, seduced by the praxis itself, he now hopes to contribute to the exponentially growing mass that is world literature.

Ed Brown's new movie Unacceptable Levels tells the story of chemicals in our bodies: how they get there, what it means to our health, how in the world it can be legal, and what we can do about it.
All this from the perspective of a young dad contemplating the food his family eats, the water they drink and that cute little rubber duck his kids chew on. Brown's personal journey, as he pulls back the veil on our chemically-saturated world, is well worth watching. I'll be at the film's July 11 screening in San Francisco along with other PAN staff — if you're in the Bay Area, please join us! Showings are also happening soon in Chicago and Austin.
I couldn't bring 9-month-old Connor with me when I attended my first POPs treaty meeting in Bonn, so I brought my breastmilk pump instead. I vividly remember struggling with my rusty German to convince the women in the conference center kitchen to store my milk in the deep freeze.
As a nursing mother, participating in the POPs treaty meetings took on a very personal dimension. Here's why: persistent chemicals build up in food chains across the globe, and this is a key reason the treaty exists. Human milk — nature's perfect food for infants — is at the very top of the food chain. This is why POPs show up so often in breastmilk.
Turns out a new generation of supposedly safer pesticides isn't so safe after all. In the latest entry of a growing body of evidence, scientists announced last week that pyrethroid pesticides — now in hundreds of pest control products sold for home use — can interfere with the healthy development of an infant's nervous system when moms are exposed during pregnancy. Here we go again.
History tells us that substituting one type of pesticide for another "safer" variety just doesn't work out very well.
Imagine if a persistent, toxic chemical was being added to all sorts of products you use everyday: soap, toothpaste, cosmetics, shaving cream, even toys and underwear. Imagine being told that it was put there to keep you safe from disease, when in reality it could end up making you sicker by contributing to antibiotic resistance. Imagine your food was being grown in fertilizer contaminated with this chemical, and that government tests found it in 75% of Americans. Finally, imagine you had an opportunity to do something about it.
Two studies came out in the last couple of weeks that really illustrate the problems associated with "PBT" chemicals: those which are simultaneously persistent, bioaccumulative, and toxic. Persistent substances resist degradation — you can move them around but it's really hard to get rid of them. Bioaccumulation happens when chemicals in food, water, and air end up getting stored in the body of a living thing. Thus, for a bass living in a mercury polluted lake, the mercury levels in the fish may be thousands of times higher than the levels in the water. A cow grazing on PCB-laced feed will store the chemical in her body and excrete it in her milk, and humans too act as sinks for all kinds of chemicals.

Ana produced an accomplished performance to beat Italy's Flavia Pennetta 6-4, 6-4 in the second round of the Rogers Cup Presented by National Bank in Toronto.
Ana made a bright start to the match. She broke the Italian's serve to love at the first time of asking in the second game, convincingly hitting four straight winners.
Leading 3-0, the 25-year-old fashioned a break point in the fourth game but this time, she was unable to convert it and Pennetta got her first game on scoreboard instead.
It would prove to be a turning point in the opening set, with the Italian reeling off three games to level the tie. The match was competitive until 5-4, when Ana converted her fourth set point on the Pennetta serve.
Break point opportunities were prevalent in the second set too, and the scoring followed the same pattern as set one, as Ana moved 3-0 ahead only to be pulled back to 3-3.
Despite being troubled by a right leg injury, Ana always looked like the player more likely to move ahead. The 16th seed forced 12 break point opportunities – of which she converted two – and dropped serve just once to wrap up victory after nearly two hours of play.
Ana will take on world No.5 Li Na from China in round three on Thursday. The match is scheduled to take place sometime after 1pm local time (7pm Central European Time).

Happy 13th Birthday Brooklyn Beckham! (Photos)Chris Rogers
Happy Birthday Brooklyn Beckham!
The oldest spawn of David and Victoria Beckham turns 13-years-old today (March 4)! It's hard to believe the kid has aged so quickly as it just seems like yesterday when his mom, better known as Posh Spice, was touring around the world with the Spice Girls!
It was in 1998, while touring in New York City, that Beckham realized she was pregnant with Brooklyn. Later flying back across the pond, Brooklyn was born in Westminster, London at Portland Hospital.
Brooklyn was 4-months-old when he was assigned the special duty of ring-bearer at his parent's wedding. How posh!
"It's brilliant. Victoria is very well. She is sitting up drinking champagne and has spoken to the other girls. It's something I've always wanted, it's something I've always wanted to do. It was very exciting but also a little bit scary. There were no complications. It was lovely," proud dad David said on the birth of his first born child back in 1999.
Take a look at photos of Brooklyn below!
Disneyland 2007 1 of 10Friday 17th February 2007. Victoria Beckham visits Disneyland with her children Brooklyn and Romeo. Flanked by security guards among the crowds, Victoria bought candy floss and then played around with her friend whom she pushed in the buggy. The family then enjoyed the "Pirates of the Carribbean" ride.
Soccer Game 2007 2 of 10Wednesday 15 August 2007. David Beckham made a fairy-tale competitive home debut for the Los Angeles Galaxy on Wednesday night. Becks, who captained his side, played 63 minutes solid, scoring a superb penalty kick midway through the first half just after earning a yellow card for a hard sliding tackle. Two minutes into the second half Beckham set Landon Donovan free behind the United defense for a breakaway goal, before leaving the field just after the hour mark. His team won with a 2-0 victory over D.C United. Beckham's wife Victoria and three sons - Brooklyn (right in white strip), Romeo (left) and Cruz (centre) all watched the match from the family enclosure.
Ice Cream 2010 3 of 10Sunday January 31 2010. Victoria Beckham takes her three boys for an afternoon out at the Malibu Country Mart. Before leaving the outdoor shopping mall, Victoria treated Brooklyn (grey t-shirt), Romeo (red t-shirt) and Cruz (in her arms) to ice creams from the Chocolate Box Cafe. As well as her ever-present bodyguards, Mrs Beckham was also accompanied by her parents, Tony and Jackie.
Soccer Game 2011 4 of 10Wednesday July 20, 2011. LA Galaxy, lead by captain David Beckham, took a 1-0 win against US team Columbus Crew at the Galaxy's home pitch at The Home Depot Centre in Los Angeles California.

by Sarah Lasry, KosherStreet.com
This is a healthy recipe – using ground turkey instead of ground meat – that uses one of my favorite cooking tools...the slow cooker. Add the ingredients, set the temperature, and let it simmer all day. The house will smell fabulous and you will have a great meal to serve to your family.
For the tomato sauce:

A "Classic" Roc, or another Roc mold? That's pretty sweet! Wish I could putt like that. :)

I had a basically new DX Roc in my Garage somewhere. If I can find it, and my kids haven't destroyed it throwing it on the Street, I'll message you for your address and send it to you.
thats awsome man!! Maybe I will start canning some shots. How do i check for messages??
Latitude 64 Core, best do all mid there is and definately the best plastic on the market. I do throw Ontario Rocs also.
Z Buzzz or Buzzz SS
I have both in my bag. BUT, I aways seem to kept going back to my Ching Legacy. The weight is 170. I know there are some out there who will not like my answer. But, it works for me. :)
I dig the Core as well. Try the Warship, gonna blow your mind.
have to agree,the warship is pretty amazing!it will never push the cobras out of the bag,but it is certainly earning a spot.easy to control,amazing glide,and deceptively fast!
Thanks Dookville. I'll have to try the Warship out.

PS. Don't know where I got this recipe from, but it's very easy to make and is always a hit.

I can already hear liberals (of which I am one) shouting "false equivalency" at their screens and firing up their post blog rebuttal. I've already observed this new favorite line of my progressive friends popping up all over progressive blogs and Facebook pages, particularly anytime that it is suggested that Fox News and MSNBC are to some degree in the same business. "Foul!" "False equivalency!" The whole matter worries me.
I am worried because we are becoming more of a reflection of the Fox Newsers everyday. (I know, I know "false equivalency!"). Just in shouting "False equivalency," we are proving it. Much like the Beck-heads ingest and then regurgitate Beck's talking points (I am intentionally saying Beck's and not Republican's, because the tide has reversed course a bit in that relationship) with little to no thought and manage to do it with the kind of convicted dedication that you usually only see in suicide bombers, we are slowly beginning to do the same.
As you can see in the video below, the phrase "false equivalency" is one that Obermann, and others at MSNBC, are using to reorient the argument in a way that makes them a clear winner (and quite frankly a bit of a victim as well). So, not only are we buying into it and using their terminology to defend it (like Beck watchers are prone to do), but we are buying into a false argument that has been artfully crafted in much the same way that Fox News has done so many times.
That does not mean we believe they are equal, just similarly inserting divisive perspectives on national issues in a way that negatively impact our overarching ability to engage with the other side in reasoned dialog. Let's face it, they both are businesses and gain monetarily by putting a negative face on the other side. While MSNBC clearly bases their commentary more on facts in comparison to Fox's fear based commentary, the demonetization, name calling and false urgency that both sides practice are only serving to further divide this nation and that divide helps halt progress... so, which side of the debate do you think our current approach helps the most?
I'm not saying it is easy to have dialog with the other side (see my xtranormal video). I'm not even saying they want to engage in dialog (not engaging plays to their desired outcomes). I am saying that relationships are always at least two-sided. You do not get to simply point to the other side and say it is their fault. Like it or not, it is a relationship and not only are we in it, but we are partly (not necessary equally) responsible for the tenor of our debates.
It is all a matter of degrees not a matter of equivalency. You don't have to be exactly the same distance from "sanity" to be too far away from it to be helpful. MAD, mutually assured destruction, doesn't require both sides to have the same weapons or an equal number of them. It only requires for both sides to be far enough away from peace that the other side will be too frightened to make a move. "Would you like to play a game?" (shameless reference to one of my favorite childhood movies, "WarGames")
Christians are offered a third way out of the false dichotomy that humanity always tries to place on itself. Theologian Walter Wink calls it, Jesus' Third Way. I wrote a sermon based on it that you can find here. This response begins with loving your enemy not villainizing them. It looks like nonviolent resistance. It stands over and against any type of violent response.
It doesn't have to be physical violence. Bullying is violent. And while we on the Left are great at standing up and demanding that the world stop bullying teens who are gay, we tend to do it in a Facebook post that is followed by a grown up version of bullying as we call Beck and idiot or paint a Joker face on Bush in response to the one that was done on Obama. I'm just as guilty as anyone. The xtranormal video I made doesn't exactly play fare in the false dichotomy it paints between the mental facilities of the Tea Partier and the member of The Christian Left. Just because you try to intellectualize the content of your bullying, it doesn't make it any less bullying.
I'm tired of these games we play. What scares me is the way we on the Left are slowly falling pray to joyfully playing these games, that stand over and against what Jesus taught, just so we can hold on tightly to what want to believe. If you are on The Christian Left, God calls you to a better path. For that matter, if you are a Christian, period.
I'm tired of the games - tired of the mutually insured destruction to which these games lead. It is not what God wants. God want for us, plans for us, hope...and a future. The current path is not the path that leads us there.

Berry College's Teacher Education Program is nationally accredited and has been cited as a model of excellence. If you want to graduate from a program that has one simple goal - to produce 100 of the best-prepared new teachers each year - Berry is the place for you.
Principals and personnel directors place great confidence in Berry's program. In both good and bad job markets, nearly all of our graduates are employed by school systems before the next school year. In addition, many of our graduates begin master's degree programs within one to two years while continuing to teach.
Berry's Teacher Education Program is grounded in the liberal arts but also is rich in the wisdom of practicing teachers. Nearly all of Berry's Teacher Education professors have extended experience in P-12 schools, with a dramatically higher than normal proportion of experience in inner city, overseas and high minority schools. In addition, a number of courses are team taught, allowing students to benefit from the expertise of professors from different backgrounds and disciplines.
Almost all of Berry's Teacher Education courses are conducted in the newly remodeled Cook Building, which is equipped with the latest teaching and educational technology.
Berry's Teacher Education Program is unique among Georgia's private colleges and universities in maintaining accreditation since 1974 by the National Council for the Accreditation of Teacher Education (NCATE), the principal accrediting body for teacher education schools. All certification programs are approved by the Georgia Professional Standards Commission.
