Dumont's fans might find this latest exercise enjoyable, but his style of filmmaking is an acquired taste. I doubt those without that taste are going to acquire it here.
Dumont makes movies that almost nobody wants to see. That doesn't make him a great filmmaker, but he's a great filmmaker all the same.
If Hadewijch is Mr. Dumont's most overtly religious film, it is not pro-faith in any specific way, although the director clearly respects the religious impulse.

This is the perfect gallon sized jar for displaying treats for $1 donations at an upcoming fundraiser. The lid gasket makes a good airtight seal, the glass is bubble-free and sturdy. I'll use it for storing my pup's dehydrated raw food mix at home once the event is over. It looks like it'll take going in the dishwasher with ease. It arrived quickly and was very carefully packaged to prevent damage. Good price, too! Good show!

I love this intelligent design/creationist bullshit. These people might as well promote belief in the Gnomes of Zurich, MJ12 and the Elders of Zion while they're at it. And what kind of fucked up god spends his/her time developing sophisticated "all natural" fruit packaging? Why not produce packages of carpi sun while he's everyone's time?
If only he knew the subtle irony that the banana's current form evolved quickly from human selective forces- becoming bigger, sweeter and brighter to take better advantage of the seed-spreading apes we are. Of course, we've since selected for bananas with no seeds at all.
Its all God's plan.
Jen Graves slogged about this awhile ago.
Actually I think the atheist's worst nightmare is that people are actually trying to get this rubbish taught in the supposedly secular schools of this country.
indeed...and isn't that KIRK fucking CAMMERON or whatever from GROWING the fuck PAINS or whatever sitting next to him?
of course it is.
yeah, this is old shit, but they did do an entire 30 minutes on how homosexuals are sinners in the eyes of god.
Its the most manipulative show I have ever seen. They take what people say, who they ambush on the street unprepared, out of context and then cut there own commentaries with it to make this narrative that proves all of their points. You'd think this shit would be on Fox News, but the fact that this is a show about the warped bastardization of spirituality is even more infuriating.
A cashew?
No, cashews are so small the curved shape isn't really relevant.
A Coke bottle? They have an hourglass curve, and they fit in your mouth, right?
I know! A turkey neck! They are just the right size and that curve, and people love to eat them. Is it a turkey neck? It it? What did I win?
You might as well point to the myriad breeds of dogs as proof of god's hatred for fire hydrants. We've been selectively breeding things for a long, long time.
Here is the homosexual episode. When it starts, it sounds like the Aussie guy is saying "SIN francisco"
Part 1- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TDgKxbL2jq4
Part 2- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mJbl1p_WaEU&mode=related&search=
Part 3- is located in the "Related" box on the right hand side, Slog won't let me post more than 3 URLs, lest I be seen as spam.
Here is part 3-
I like how you can hear "Kurt" giggle in the background when the guy mentions that the banana doesn't "squirt all over your face." Priceless.
Actually, you're supposed to open the banana from the bottom. This way, you can avoid the bending and squashing of the banana that occurs when opening it from the top.
This is, after all, how our closest evolutionary relatives, the chimps, eat thems.
That's actually child star Kirk Cameron on the right side.
This is the kind of post that separates the true bloggers from the dabblers. This was covered long ago in the blogosphere.
Another bit of irony here: REAL bananas in nature DON'T Actually look like this. (Ever been to Hawaii and seen a banana plant that's not pumped with chemicals and genetically altered?) They are much smaller, much browner, and their "wrappers" aren't nearly so plastic-like and convenient. How did commercial bananas, like the one this genius is holding, get that "perfect design?" By God's creation? No - agricultural industry's creation! It's the same reason tomoatoes are "perfectly red," have a subtle square shape that makes them fit so conveniently into a box, and fit so neatly into the human hand. Asshole.
Its cock isn't it. Always thinking about cock you gays are. Not like us evanGELicals. We think about about the wholesome godly banana. No cocks here yes siree.
Also note the miracle of the navel orange. It contains no seeds for man to choke on. It signifies it's seedlessness by a navel for the convenience of shoppers, and as attested by Sunkist, it is almost flawless round, orange and uniformly sized.
The banana is a cultivated crop. Note that the bananas you eat are seedless. They are clones of a small number of cultivars, just as most fruits are. Fruits grown from seeds aren't close enough to the parent to be usefull commerically. So nature had little to do with this.
It is astonishing however that something cultivated so carefully by man for his eating pleasure is also so well adapted to vaginal masturbation. That truly is miraculous.
(Sunkist by the way is a trademarked grade, not a brand, that signifies a particular size, color range and roundness for oranges.)
You have got me on this one, Dan. I can't think of anything shaped like a banana and is just the right shape for the human mouth and is sometimes curved toward the face to make the whole process even easier. Uhhh, wow, this is beyond me! Great fucking question!
I saw this the first time at least 6 months ago or so. In fact, I think you guys had it here before.
Still, could this clown be any more retarded? The common grocery-store banana he's peeling looks nothing at all like the original wild natural banana before man started fucking with it. What a douche bag.
Please excuse me @19, but what exactly does a wild natural banana look like? Is it edible? Is it shaped to fit a human mouth perfectly? Would I want one in my mouth, and if I did, where could I find one?
Ever been to Hawaii and seen a banana plant that's not pumped with chemicals and genetically altered?
There are over three hundred varieties of banana, and none of them are native to Hawaii. None of them have been genetically altered, either -- no, not even that nice big Chiquita you're holding -- unless you consider selective breeding to be "genetically altered"... in which case you also have to include lots of other things like corn, and dogs, and us people too. Many of the other commercial varieties of banana are smaller and darker, but that doesn't make them any more (or less) natural than the Cavendish, the variety commonly sold in the US. They've all been subjected to selective breeding too.
now what do *I* win?
I fear for my future
South Carolina passed an ammendment to the state constitution banning gay marriage.
Kirk will be so pleased.
@23: Monkey, as a monkey and what this guy wants to do with bananas, so would I.
And BTW, I sooooo had the hots for Kirk Cameron when I was a teenager. My disappointment has been huge.
Dave @ 26-
From what I have seen of Kirk Cameron and if past evangelical actions determine future results, there is no need for you to be disappointed. You need only be patient.
Yeah, I've watched this before. You should see the episode where Kirk Cameron preaches that you shouldn't single out gays for abuse, because all people are sinners, and gay sex isn't worse than unmarried sex.
Between being obsessed with GodTube (and having my home IP address banned from the site for comments I made discrediting an anti-Muslim video) and watching Jesus Camp last night, my quality of sleep has been deteriorating and every time I close my eyes I see images of crazy fucking Christians... and I think I'm going crazy.
I'm scared... I'm so scared.
That said, the logic in the banana video is flawless.
So God fucked up all the rest of the fruit? or were they practice?
One hit wonder.
OMG do these people have nothing else better to do then talk about the shape and texture of a Banana?
Clearly, the gentleman has never eaten a mango.
If God is so great, why hasn't He come up with a seedless pomegranate?
I am allergic to bananas, what does that mean?
Selective breeding IS genetic modification. Humans have been doing it for tens of thousands of years, indeed all plant-eating animals have been, for MILLIONS of years, though there's a school of thought that says humans aren't using plants to selectively breed for the traits they want, but rather the plants are selectively producing the traits that are attractive to humans. We're been "used" every bit as much as the plants are.
Cavendish bananas were not just discovered one day growing in da jungle; they were bred to look like that. Likewise, the wild corn plant has, or had, ears that were a fraction of an inch long and resembled wheat more than they did today's gigantic cattle fodder. That breeding work was done by American Indians long before any white person ever saw a tortilla.
None of this has fuck-all to do with "God's perfect design", since God didn't design it; people did, or the plants did, take your pick.
Kirk Cameron, on the other hand, WAS designed entirely by God, which tells you all you need to know about His amazing skills, or lack thereof. Sheesh.
Lemme guess. They aren't acutally targeting athiests with this. If they are, then they need to come up with an argument that's not completely made of fail.
That has to be the most pathetic attempt at an intelligent design argument I've yet seen.
Carollani at #29 said "crazy fucking Christians".
Sshhhhh! You're going to make me miss Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip!
PS--"And sometimes a banana ISN'T just a banana"--S. Freud.
Evolutionary theory has many flaws and can probably never be proven in the standard scientific sense of the term, but it seems to provide a reasonable framework for understanding various biological processes.
You might be interested to know that the vast majority of Christians, Jews, Muslims, and Hindus accept evolutionary theory. None of the major religions has expressed disapproval of the theory, though disapproval has been expressed by some small groups and (often very vocal) individuals. Scientific discovery is embraced by the major religions and such discovery is generally the result of the long-term historical support by the major religions and adherents of these religions for scientific inquiry (despite what you may have heard, a reading of the historical records overwhelmingly and directly supports this). What the major religions have consistently opposed is the position that there is no God. Classical and modern evolutionary theory (even the versions which have been generally discarded) do not conflict with the presence of God.
Undertake scientific research into the actual stated positions of the major religions as well as the adherents of these religions and you'll discover this for yourself. It seems that nonbelievers are often very surprised (and sometimes shocked) at how compatible evolutionary theory is with the tenants and historical documents of the major faiths. The believers generally aren't.
Francis Crick (credited with codiscovering the DNA helix), after reviewing the body of information regarding DNA, stated "An honest man, armed with all the knowledge available to us now, could only state that in some sense, the origin of life appears at the moment to be almost a miracle, so many are the conditions which would have had to have been satisfied to get it going."
Gene Myers of the (now famous) Human Genome Project stated the following: "What really astounds me is the architecture of life The system is extremely complex. It's like it was designed There's a huge intelligence there."
Regarding the basic "code of life" (DNA), Werner Gitt of the German Federal Institute of Physics and Technology, has stated the following: "A code system is always the result of a mental process It should be emphasized that matter as such is unable to generate any code. All experiences indicate that a thinking being voluntarily exercising his own free will, cognition, and creativity, is required There is no known natural law through which matter can give rise to information, neither is any physical process or material phenomenon known that can do this."
Anthony Flew is known as a leading philosopher and defender of atheism. He has been a professor over the last 5 decades at major UK universities (including Oxford and Aberdeen). Regarding his espousal of atheism, he has now publicly announced, "As people have certainly been influenced by me, I want to try and correct the enormous damage I may have done." Anthony now holds that God exists and proof of this is found in DNA.

This story has nothing to do with walking your dog without a leash. It just proves someone is a idiot.

Read this --there is no such thing as a "leash law" in the City Of Crockett.The only restriction is you can only have no more than 5 cats.The rest is pretty much about hogs,horses or endangered species.An ordinace with no teeth! I know of a residence with no less than 8 pit bulls chained in the front yard. Aniaml control finally came by and made the owner feed and water them on a regular basis ,but otherwise that's it. The law can't do anything or won't ! Frankly i'm sick of it all.This is not in the country ,this is in a neighbor hood in the city.
#28 Jan 18, 2009
Well we do have a leash law here in Trinity and we have an animal control officer who has picked up several dogs on Parker Street.
Since: Jul 08
#29 Jan 18, 2009
Well, good for Trinty!!! I guess Crockett doesnt want to make the pit bull owners mad for some reason
What is the deal with getting a dog(of anybreed) and Chaining it up in the yard? I dont get that mentality .Talk about redneck ....someone enlighten me

Sorry you a Gordon fan, I used to a MM fan,now 99. redneck don't do that to dogs maybe you talking about trashie people.
#32 Jan 18, 2009
First of all I am talking about people walking there dogs without a leash you idiot! You need to read! And if you have a dog in city limits you should have then in a fence or chained or in your home. LIKE I SAID BEFORE ITS FOR THE SAFETY OF OTHERS AND THE PET. Sorry about the caps, but Gordon you are something, let me tell you. I mean come on guys I could be scratching my ass instead of trying to make a point. I hardly every start something on here but to me this is something that needs to be addressed. When I do call they say the dog catcher is busy doing something else. Frankly I am tired of all the pets people leave to fend for themselves. Pets that should be on a leash but have idiots for owners. Some people do not realize the effort you have to put into a pet until its to late.
#33 Jan 18, 2009
Some people are mentaly qualified to be pets, not own them...... I say let your pooch do as it wishes, but if it sniffs my boot it will get my boot, and if it bites my kid it'll get a 7mm round in the temple, and no I ain't callin' no "Trinity Dog Catcher"...lol. Anyways, aside from that I like dogs, but the only thing cats are good for is keepin' the critters off the ranch.
This all reminds me of this one feller in Goober Gap who used to have a Sihitzu, and a bulldog. Well, the 2 of them there love birds went off and made themselves a pup. Yea, the name of that breed is the same thing most of this dog chitter chatter is.......Anywhoo.

Stacey -- I AM talking about the safety of dogs and owners ,not to mention the citizens of any city who walk their dogs without a leash!!But there are NO LAWS about that in the city of Crockett.. I only hope no one moves in across the stret from you and brings 8 ---yes E-I-G-H-T pit bulls and leaves then chained up for you to enjoy ! with no fence to keep little kids from being harmed if they should venture into there to pet the "pretty puppies" ...I do see your point --please be sure to consider mine as well

"trashy people" -- I was being nice --whoever does does it is trash ! Redneck or whatever they you wanna call em . regardless ,it's not right whoever does it (btw I like 99 and MM too)

WE are in Trinity not Crockett. Two different counties. Houston County - Crockett Trinity - Trinity County.

Gordonfan24 i know you was being nice i hate trashy prople who called themselves redneck, because i'm a redneck. not in the hollywood way. Dear Stacy i'm sorry also hope you are very happy. hey 24 what # is mm going to be with hendricks.
#38 Jan 18, 2009
There is a state leash law and it does not matter whether you live in or out of the city. It is illegal to allow your dog (or cat) to run loose. If it is on your property it can be loose but as soon as it leaves your property it must be on a leash or under your control. Allowing a dog (or cat) to run loose means it is not under your control. If a law officer told someone it was okay to allow it to run loose then they need to educate themselves on the state leash law.
#39 Jan 18, 2009
EVERYBODY DO NOT WALK YOUR DOG IN FRONT OF STACY'S YARD WITHOUT A LEASH, AND DO NOT POST ON STACY'S THREAD UNLESS YOU LIVE IN THE CITY LIMITS OF TRINITY........Now Stacy are you happy. I sure in the heck hope so.

What are your thoughts on that? How can we come together? Is it necessary to come together? What kind of negotiations can we start with in order to have a relationship with each other? What do we need to understand about each other in order to be accepting of each others path?
Hm, well I don't identify "as" poly and I have never been one to seek out company based on a commonality such as sexual, gender, or relationship orientation. Even when I go to nudist resorts, I go there because *I* want to be naked, not because I want to be around other people who like to be naked!
I'm not sure if I'm qualified to answer your question(s), but it helps to keep in mind that not everyone wants to "come together" or "have a relationship with each other". I'm fine with people going off and doing their own thing(s) and including or being included by as many or as few people as they choose. I don't think the world has to be one huge love fest. I think there needs to be less coming together and more minding our own business. That's been working for me so far and whether anyone wants to believe it or not, I am quite fulfilled in my personal relationships. But that's just me and I wouldn't dream of forcing my ways upon any happy, positive-thinking people who are reading this.

Dawn of War II Help
I really like the look of this game but I've read mixed reviews. My gaming magazine gives it 9/10 but I've read some reviews by gamers saying it's too easy and the missions are almost the same so I'm not too sure if I should buy it. I've played some RTS but it was a long time ago and now I play more RPG / FPS games.
So I'm throwing this out to you for some advise, pluses and minuses please.

Overall, I liked it. I got it when it first came out, but only recently completed it. I am not an online strategy multiplayer, definitely preferring single player options, so I can see that to maximise the value for $$ you probably need to be willing to play online.
I liked it as it quick paced - some missions only taking 8-10 min. There was an RPG element in that you skill up your squaddies and get some loot (random I think) from various kills.
I did find the overall campaign a bit easy, although I played it only on the medium level difficulty.
I liked the tactical aspect of combat, but sometimes with some bigger battles, particularly against tyrannid swarms, I had no clue what was happening other than my marines were carving through them and I just had to press buttons to heal up, or throw a grenade everynow and then.
There is some (arbitrary) rewards for different play styles. I preferred to clear whole maps, which at times would take 25 min or so rather than the quick style of going straight for the main boss. I figured I would get more loot optons by clearing the map. You score different points depending on % enemies killed, time taken and own team losses.
Overall, I put the game in a 'good category' without being brilliant. I love the 40k universe and story, so that may bias my positive perspective somewhat too.

I have to agree, stay away unless you really like to play multiplayer online, I have stayed playing Dark Crusade and Soulstorm, mostly Dark Crusade as my mod works with that.
And the fact DoW2 has GFWL and Steam, if it only had GFWL I could probably put up with it, but both, no thanks.

I really enjoy the single player campaign, as there is scope for different strategies and the AI has been improved. Multiplayer is a real hoot, too.

I loved the game
About to start getting back into it as I gave Red Alert II a go, which is disappointing to say the least.
Storying line for the game, meh.
MP, pretty good
Style of the game, loved it. It gives some pretty intense battles though to get that level you have to use keyboard shortcuts, use the right weaponry, and push tactics and speed.
Otherwise, you can just back off a bit and walk through it repeating tactics. Which you will see mentioned in many reviews.
MP however you cannot do that. You have to play quick and smart. But it is great fighting a smaller fight and faster fight.

The Singleton of Dufftown recently launched two new NAS expressions. You may have seen them, they're the ones named after hot rod car paints fishing flies (in keeping with the Singleton logo): Tailfire and Sunray. The colours correspond to the flavour profiles of the whiskies, which makes it a little easier for folk who may otherwise find choosing from a shelf of single malts a daunting proposition.
The new releases are set to be celebrated at The Singleton Whisky Night Market on Thursday May 15th (18:30-22:30) down at Southbank, where they will be paired with specially made chocolates (Cocomaya), cheeses (Pong), and whisky marshmallows (The Marshmallowists) alongside theatrical presentations (no doubt involving the one and only Colin Dunn), comedy (Tom Sandham* off of Thinking Drinkers), some top grub (Forza Win and Mark Hix) and whisky cocktails from the excellent Andrea Montague (of Callooh Callay fame, now Diageo's in-house 'malt mixologist').
Enjoying a Honeyed Whisky Collins on the rooftop.
I popped down to Bird of Smithfield last night for a little Night Market preview that included Master Blender Dr. Matthew Crow's thoughts on creating these two single malt whiskies. Seeking to create new, flavour-led expressions he searched for points of interest that also offered something different from the existing range. What he identified were red berry notes in certain casks at certain ages and honey notes in some others. He then set about seeking to elevate and lengthen these characteristics to produce a couple of whiskies that have differing, overt characters as well as further complexity.
Singleton of Dufftown Sunray – 40%
Nose: Vanilla and honey, apple and blackcurrant – two great pairs working well together. Grassy honey then dehydrated apple with cinnamon moving into strudel with some dark, syrupy blackcurrant.
Palate: Soft stewed apples. Thick honeyed texture and taste, with a hint of malt in the background.
Finish: Fairly short, warm and drying.
Singleton of Dufftown Tailfire – 40%
Nose: Crisp apple, red grape, raspberry and candied orange peel all jump out. A grassy green note and Wensleydale & Cranberry maintain balance whilst a touch of tobacco develops over time.
Palate: Raspberry bush, more Wensleydale. Oats, vanilla and a hint of pepper.
Finish: Drying and hot rod with lip smacking fruitiness.
A couple of interesting releases, with the overt side of the flavour profiles providing ample opportunity for mixing, pulling those notes out and further lengthening them:
Honeyed Whisky Collins made with Sunray and mead (left) and a 'Fruity Scot' made with Tailfire, crème de mûre and white grape juice (right).
Grab yourself a ticket for The Singleton Whisky Night Market and you can sample both whiskies for yourself, enjoy a Honeyed Whisky Collins or Fruity Scot made by Andrea Montague, and experience a whole raft of other gastronomic and entertainment delights. You may well even see me there too**.
* "Has everybody here been to a whisky drinking before?"
** I live around the corner, other than laziness I'll really have no excuse at all.

Am I right in saying that these are being positioned specifically as mixing whiskies - or is that a sort of by-product that was being showcased as part of the event?
Ben @ Master of Malt
They're designed to "inspire a new generation" by concentrating on appealing, recognisable flavours that can be easily conveyed prior to purchase allied with the complexity of a single malt. They see it as a modern approach that will remove some barriers to people confidently purchasing malts and whisky based mixed drinks. So not specifically for mixing, no - but whisky cocktails are certainly part of that modern vision.Capiche?
Capiche.It's very, very exciting to see a big player pushing Single Malts into the mixing category (albeit slightly cagily maybe?).Employing Andrea is a very strong move.

Which sex is the worst about washing up? Why is it so important? We've got the dirty truth on how and when to wash your hands.
Jaci's Story: Changing her Life With Small Steps
Jaci's story
Jaci's tips
Ask Jaci what has helped her lose weight, and she rattles off the list:
- Cutting down on fast food.
- Learning to control portion sizes.
- Exercising 5 days a week.
- Eating breakfast. "I never used to eat breakfast. I had to force myself to eat breakfast. It gives your body fuel. I used to go without breakfast and lunch and then at dinner, I would just gorge. I'd be starving."
- Eating her favorite foods. If she has a craving for french fries, she will eat a small portion or get a kid's meal if she is at a fast-food place.
- Eating her vegetables. "I love all vegetables."
- Being choosy when eating out. "I'll look for something that is low in fat. I try to eat half of it and box half of it." Sometimes she will share a meal.
- Eating fish. "I never used to like fish before." She thinks fish that she had before may not have been fresh or cooked right.
- Having healthy snacks. "I find that really helps. I'll have an apple or almonds."
- Writing down everything she eats.
- Cooking at home as much as possible. "We do a lot of vegetables. Asparagus has been a big thing with us. The kids like it. My husband likes it. Grilled stuff-chicken. We grill a lot of vegetables."
The key to success
What has been most important to Jaci's success?
"Sticking with it. I know people who have lost 100 pounds in a year," she says. "It's taken me 4 years, and I feel like I know how to do it and I know what I'm doing. I feel like I have a better chance of keeping it off.
"I think if you lose weight too fast, it could come back just as quickly as you lost it." She thinks people who do crash dieting haven't had "the chance to really learn what their body needs and doesn't need. I think if you lose weight too quickly, for one, you're not doing something right, something healthy.
"A lot of people I hear, they cut stuff out of their diet in order to lose weight. I don't think that's healthy. I don't think you can always keep something out of your diet-like a food group or a type of food. If you want a hamburger and french fries, have a hamburger and french fries. Just have it in moderation.
"I don't like to say I can't have something. That's when I feel it's more a diet than a lifestyle change."

PopCap's popular tower defense game Plants vs. Zombies is coming to another platform. On Friday they confirmed it will be released through PSN soon.
As they name implies, PvZ is a battle between plantlife and the walking dead. Zombies are trying to get into your house to eat your brains and only your plants can protect you. You gather sunlight and use it to create plants with different zombie-slaying abilities. The zombies have their own tricks so you'll need to create defenses to counter them.
No release date has been revealed for the PSN port. If you don't feel like waiting, note that the game is also available for PC, iOS, and Xbox 360.

Keep the Opportunities, Lose the Opportunists
A European collaboration among researchers at St. George's University of London, the Karolinksa Institutet, Tubingen University, and nanotech firm QuantuMDx Group working to develop what they call a "smartphone-like" device to analyze the DNA of different malaria strains from just a finger-prick of blood and in just 15 minutes today announced that its prototype device will be ready for field testing this year, well ahead of schedule.
The group, dubbed the Nanomal Consortium, is working in response to the fear that artemisinin-based combination therapies against malaria will soon become ineffective. Supported by €5.2 million (around $6.77 million) through the European Commission's Seventh Framework Program, the researchers hope the nanotech-based point-of-care diagnostic device they are developing will help enable the eventual personalized prescription of effective antimalarial drugs.
"Placing a full malaria screen with drug resistance status based on accurate DNA analysis in the palm of a health professional's hand will allow instant prescribing of the most effective antimalaria medication for that patient," QuantuMDx CEO Elaine Warburton said in a statement. "Nanomal's rapid, low-cost DNA testing will further support the global health challenge to eradicate malaria."

The Scottos are back to plate their signature Sunday sauce over spaghetti with a side of savory garlic bread. The family, owners of New York-based Fresco by Scotto, shares the Italian staple, complete with meatballs and sausages in a tomato basil sauce.
- 1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil
- 1 pound sweet Italian sausage
- 1 pound hot Italian sausage
- 1 cup dry red wine
- 2 tablespoons finely diced garlic
- 2 onions, diced
- 1 cup diced pancetta
- 1 tablespoon crushed red pepper
- 2 large (28 ounces) cans Italian plum tomatoes
- 1 cup chopped fresh basil
- 2 pounds cooked meatballs (see recipe)
- 2 pounds spaghetti pasta
- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese for topping
Baking Directions:
1. In a large pot over medium heat, heat the oil and sauté the sausages until brown, about 10 minutes. Remove the meat from the pan and set aside. Keep the pan over medium heat. Deglaze the pan by adding ½ cup of the wine and scraping up the bits. 2. In the same pot, add the garlic, onions, pancetta and crushed pepper and cook until the onions and garlic are lightly browned, about 2 minutes. Add the remaining ½ cup of red wine and cook until the mixture is reduced. Add the tomatoes and simmer covered for 1 hour over low heat. 3. Add the basil, sausages and meatballs to the tomato sauce, and simmer covered again for 1 hour over low heat. 4. In a large pot of boiling, salted water, cook the spaghetti pasta according to package directions until al dente. Drain the pasta, toss it with the Sunday sauce, top with the sausages, meatballs and parmesan cheese; serve immediately.

- 1 cup olive oil
Baking Directions:
1. In a medium bowl, mix the ground beef, veal, pork and bread then mix in the onions, parsley, eggs, parmesan and provolone cheese, and garlic. Add salt and pepper.

Baking Directions:
1. Heat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. 2. In a large bowl, combine the butter, Parmigiano Reggiano, olive oil and garlic, and season with salt and pepper to taste. Blend with a fork but don't overdo it or the butter will separate. 3. Cut the loaf of bread into 1-inch-thick slices. Spread the butter cheese mixture on both sides of each slice of bread. Wrap the bread in foil and place on a baking sheet. Heat in oven for about 10 minutes, then open the foil to make the loaf crispy, cook about 5 more minutes.

**Update 2/24/2016
It's taken me a couple of years to get back to check on this one. The original trail is gone but I found her!! Extremely happy about that. I've removed her from her hiding spot and could possibly replant, after some overdue maintenance.
I did this stamp for my sweetie on her 7th birthday. It's in the Lowami Hart Woods Park. Not sure how long it will last since they are renovating the park. We'll see. Trails are pretty muddy when wet. I recommend boots.
Hitchhiker friendly: Yes
Handicap friendly: no
Kid Friendly: Maybe, if they can handle hills
Shouldn't take more than 30 minutes
Go to the park entrance across from SW 149th ave. Stand in front of the park regulations in the clearing. Go down the trail on your left a few feet to the trail on your right. Go across the bridge. When you get to the conjoined twins there will be another trail to the left, (rumor has it a Superhero as a secret lair near here). Follow that trail to the fire pit in the middle of clearing. There is a bridge going across the creek. Go across, passed the old flagpole and up the hill (it's pretty steep). When you get to the top, the trail will bend left. Step over the fallen limb. Look left for the mighty giant. The box is behind it under some (you guessed it) rocks.

Performance Analysis of Proportional Fair Sceduling in OFDMA Wireless Systems
This paper analyzes the performance of Proportional Fair (PF) scheduling in Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiple Access (OFDMA) wireless systems. OFDMA represents a promising multiple access scheme for high-data-rate transmission over wireless channels as it combines the Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) modulation and subcarrier allocation. On the other hand, the PF scheduling is an efficient resource allocation scheme with good fairness characteristics. Consequently, OFDMA with PF scheduling represents an attractive solution to deliver high data rate services to multiple users simultaneously with a high degree of fairness.

City police seek home invadersBy Josh OGorman
STAFF WRITER | February 04,2013Rutland City Police are searching for at least four assailants who broke into an apartment and pistol whipped the occupants.
Shortly after 4 p.m. Saturday, Rutland City Police received a 911 call stating two men were fighting near 110 Maple St. Upon arrival, police said they interviewed two men and a woman who said at least four, and possibly five, people kicked in the back door to the apartment and used the threat of pepper spray to gain access to the apartment.
One of the assailants found the female resident in her bedroom and threatened her with what she described as a silver pistol, and when one of the male residents attempted to protect her, the assailants attacked him, according to police. The assailants demanded drugs and money before fleeing the apartment to an unknown location, police said.
Police said one of the male victims sustained serious injuries and was taken by ambulance to Rutland Regional Medical Center. The other male victim declined to be taken by ambulance and was driven to RRMC by a private party.
I would characterize it as an anomaly, Rutland City Police Sgt. John Sly said of the incident. We dont have many home invasions and its uncommon to have roving groups of people like this breaking into residences.
It is not known what, if anything, was taken, but the victims were able to identify two of the assailants as people they knew personally, police said.
The assailants remained at large Sunday night.
