Lights glinted off the brass bells in Christ United Methodist Church as music filled the sanctuary.
The bells more than 50 of them melded seamlessly into a single song.
It's these young musicians' time to shine and chime (and fix even the tiniest of glitches) as they rehearse for the final time before embarking on yet another summer concert tour.
But this trip promises to be different. This journey to the nation's Rust Belt and New England will mark the 50th anniversary of the Wesley Bell Ringers.
The celebrated Salt Lake City troupe, born in 1963 and touring since 1966, has visited all 50 states and every Canadian province. The musicians have performed at Mount Rushmore and the U.S. Capitol, Disney World and Utah's 2002 Winter Olympics. They have played with the Mormon Tabernacle Choir and the Utah Symphony.
Edwin Duncan brought the idea of a bell choir to Christ United Methodist Church when he moved to Salt Lake City to be the congregation's youth leader. Duncan had seen such a choir playing on a street corner in Latrobe, Pa., the Christmas before he moved.
"I thought, 'That seems pretty neat,' " Duncan recalled. " 'Maybe I'll get a chance to do that someday.' "
That day arrived in 1963. Church leaders were brainstorming for ways to bring more teens into the church, and a bell, so to speak, when off inside Duncan. Why not, he suggested, start a bell choir?
So he and nine youths sold hoagie sandwiches to raise the $640 needed to buy 25 hand bells. Six months later, they reached their goal and bought the bells.
Since that makeshift beginning, more than 450 high school students have pealed, tolled and chimed for the Wesley Bell Ringers, providing music, memories and friendships that last into adulthood.
"We're still getting together and hanging out," said Jeffrey Wood, who graduated from high school last year. "The friendships will last forever."
Bells are even passed from one generation to the next.
Former Ringers Eric and Jeanette Mittelstadt met in the choir, and now both their sons are in the group.
"I joined because both my parents were in it," explained Alec Mittelstadt, a senior Ringer. "They said it was fun. They were right."
The group's current director, Terry Waite, who succeeded Duncan in 1996, is himself a Ringer alum. Waite played in the choir from 1967 to 1970, and his sons did so, too, under his direction.
"I love taking kids," Waite said, "from the point where they don't know what to do with a bell to where, collectively, they make really beautiful music."
This year, Waite directs 37 high school students who play more than 100 instruments, including hand chimes, cup bells, a carillon and a boom-a-gong, one of two in existence. The choir practices four hours every week and has a weekend retreat in the fall before Christmas performances and in the spring before the summer tour.
"[The commitment] brings out your highest potential," said Larni Emery, a senior Ringer.
That potential will be on full display on tour with concerts planned during the next two weeks in Ohio, Pennsylvania, New York, Massachusetts, Connecticut, Vermont and Maine.
"Terry says your child will change on the tour," said Carla McDowell, whose son, Austin McDowell, is a junior in the choir. "Austin was kind of a nerd [before his first tour]. When he came back, he was more grown up. He had a confidence he didn't have before."
When the group returns, Utahns will get a chance to hear the 50th-anniversary concert on June 29 at Abravanel Hall in downtown Salt Lake City.
The show features three songs especially for the occasion. The Ringers commissioned an arrangement of "Variations on a Theme" by Corelli from Kevin McChesney. Bryce Pulver, a current Ringer, made a special arrangement of "Passepied" by Claude Debussy, and Matthew Compton, a 2013 high school graduate from Colorado Springs, wrote "Rhapsody in G Minor" for the choir after seeing the group perform in Salt Lake City.
The Ringers will also perform two songs adapted for the choir by founder and past director Edwin Duncan "Noah and the Ark" by Tammy Waldrop and a medley titled "Gospel."
"Ed is a sort of musical genius," said Eric Mittelstadt. "He's remarkable at understanding how music fits together."
An adaptation of the biblical story of Noah, read by junior Ringer Austin McDowell, accompanies "Noah and the Ark."
"When Terry said we needed a narrator with a sense of humor," McDowell said, "everyone was volunteering me."
Ringers Shannon Loveday and Emily Haden dress as storytellers and act out scenes from the New Testament with props as the choir plays "Gospel" behind them.
" 'Gospel' is the signature piece of the Wesley Bell Ringers," Waite said. "It had to be part of our 50th-anniversary program."
And bells provide the signature sound.

In the vineyard, Christophe Roumier prefers a high vine age and rigorous pruning, resulting in small yields. In the winery, all aspects of the Roumier vinification are completely traditional: a very warm, 18 day maceration, use of 25% new wood barrels (with a slightly higher percentage for the Grands Crus), and egg white fining. Since 1988 the domaine has discontinued the practice of filtration, and the entire cellar has been air-conditioned, allowing a 4-5 day pre-fermentation maceration of grapes.
Domaine Georges Roumier is one of the finest sources of classic, long-lived red Burgundies, with wines that demonstrate fruit, spice, and balance, with substantial tannins. Simply put, Roumier wines are brilliantly made. They are rich, fragrant wines with characteristic aromas of cherries and berries, and often need 4-5 years to show their great depth and harmony. They are also very long-lived, lasting up to twenty years. View all Georges Roumier Wines
About Burgundy
Burgundy is a small region, only about a fourth the size of Bordeaux. The narrow thread of vineyard land stretches from the city of Dijon to Lyon. The five main districts of Burgundy are – from North to South - Chablis, Côte d'Or, Côte Chalonnaise, Maconnais, and Beaujolais. Chablis is far removed geographically (above Dijon) and adheres to its own classifications. Beaujolais is its own region due to grape variety, vinification methods and regulations. Leaving us with the Côte d'Or, Côte Chalonnaise and Maconnais as the heart of Burgundy.
Grapes of the region are easy to remember - Pinot Noir for reds, Chardonnay for whites. Burgundy can be called home for both varietals, despite their increasing presence in every winemaking country. In this area red wines out number whites, although the quality for both is unparalleled.
A bit of History...Once owned and run by the church and nobility, the vineyards of Burgundy were seized during French Revolution and sold off piece by piece. Further separation occurred with Napoleonic Law, which ordered that inherited land be divided among children equally. These two factors put Burgundy where it is today – a myriad of vineyards and villages, each with a number of growers and producers.
NégociantsBurgundy is organized by plots of land and labeled as such. About half of Burgundy works on a négociant system. Growers of small plots sell grapes, or more often, barrels of already made wine, to négociant houses who then blend it with other wines from that region and put it under their label. While the négociant system may sound like a way to produce mass amounts of anonymous wines, that is, luckily, not the case. Wines are labeled with a sense of place, so you know what land you are getting. There are some négociant houses that are much more renowned and consistent than others, and for the most part, the system works. But times are changing. Some growers are purchasing more land and making the wine on their property, under their label, for more consistency. On the other side, négociant houses are buying up their own vineyards so they will have more control over winemaking.
Classification SystemThe classification system is similar to a pyramid. At the base of the pyramid is the most basic of the classifications, the Burgundy AC, meaning grapes can come from anywhere in the Burgundy region. Next up is a village wine, such as Côte de Beaune or Côte de Nuits, or the villages within these regions, like Givery-Chambertin or Puligny-Montrachet. The label will say Appellation Puligny-Montrachet Controlée. At the next level is the premier cru. A wine that says Puligny-Montrachet 1er Cru will still be Appellation Puligny-Montrachet [premier cru] Controllée, but may include the premier cru vineyard name, such as Les Pucelles. At the tip of the pyramid are the grand cru vineyards. There are only 30 in the Côte d'Or and the name of the vineyard is the appellation name.
About France - Other regionsWhen it comes to wine, France is a classic. Classic blends, grapes and styles began in the country and they still remain. Think about it - people ask for a Burgundian style Pinot Noir, they refer to wines as Bordeaux or Rhone blends - Champagne even had to pass a law to stop international wineries from putting their region on the label of all sparkling wine.
The top regions of France are: Bordeaux, Burgundy, Champagne, Languedoc-Roussillon, Loire, Rhone. And these regions are so diverse! It makes sense that wine regions throughout the world try to emulate their style. Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, Cabernet Sauvignon and Syrah are no longer French varieties, but international varieties. They may not be the leader of cutting edge technology or value-priced wines, but there is no doubt that they are still producing wines of great quality and diversity.

a thread about fighter records?
I'm so in.
Love these types of threads.
a thread about fighter records?
I'm so in.
Love these types of threads.
Sherdog.com - The number one MMA site on the web today!
Firstly, I am not a fan of the 'can -crushing' and one of the many reasosn I feel so comfortable with CWFC is their attitude towards quality match making. But, does anyone think that UKMMA perhaps suffer a little bit from a boxing culture? When boxing releases a bright new star they often pitch him against a journeyman fighter who is not expected to win. It gives the new pro a chance to cut his teeth, hopefully without putting him in too much danger. And the sport is very open about this.
It would be interesting if we had the ability to find out which of the record padders fought last minute opponents and which had +6 weeks to prepare for a can. There might have been a decent fight originally set, but as injuries are such a problem, mister promoter with a very thin black book brought in his dependable can or naive cage fighter
Commentator: CWFC, Kayo MMA, Shock n Awe. SAFE MMA. johngooden.co.uk @johngoodenuk
How do you think making them fight Amateur would change their approach to the sport and what makes you think they dont take the sport seriously?
For someone who stood tall trying to protect Mr Mike Persil you seem to enjoy putting the boot into these guys.
Nathan, Mark and Craig would all hurt Mike if they were to fight so what give Mike more of a right to fight on the pro circuit than these "journeymen" (no offence to Mike if your reading this pal)
Just wanting to understand Babycakes logic!
Dan 'Vybz' Welsh 63Kg Pro 11-25-0 firstname.lastname@example.com
Dan are you sure you want to go there? Okkkkk your choice.
Firstly the one and only reason your getting out of most of your fights unhurt is because of your confidence standing and your cushy relationship with promoters ie Oh shit fighter A never turned up don't worry we can call Dan the can who will be more then happy to fight anyone in the fighting community as long as he gets paid well. Another thing Dan im kinda pissed off more because by the sounds of it you have real ability man you could be a force yet you say you don't train that's also a bit cocky for a guy with your record not even training when you know you could be put in with anyone yet your protected due to saving a lot of important peoples arses on shows etc.
I have met Mark nice lad but Craig Allen couldn't even beat himself down never mind Persil. Persil is a better example for MMA then you sure he was old but he trained daily and believed in himself hell he was the laughing stock but he still showed up and had a go despite knowing he faced a up hill struggle. Mike even retired and still trying to stay in the sport doing other things.
Now the only reason I say make them fight Amateur until they get a few wins is to discourage this not training I just wanna be a cage fighter rawr or just to make easy money attitude its dangerous.
However you seemed to concenterate more on a personal attack on me this time lol all of which is complete nonsense may I add!!!!!!
In fact reading it again pretty much all of it is nonsense. But I guess we all have opinions
Dan 'Vybz' Welsh 63Kg Pro 11-25-0 firstname.lastname@example.com
This thread needs loads more name calling and pictures
They guy who invented Burpees , is a secret child molester
Sig awaiting witty quote from someone.
Mike Persil would destroy you Danny Welsh. round 1

And here is something that sticks in my craw: motorists who complain about the behavior of cyclists are expecting a higher standard of conduct from cyclists as a group than they are prepared to apply to their own group. Too often we hear the all inclusive complaint that bloody cyclists jump red lights, but when it comes to the in excess of one hundred thousand drivers who run red lights, well that's just a few ratbag individuals. The vast majority of drivers are pure as the driven snow when it comes to red light running.
[Motorists] console themselves with the thought that...bicyclists are outlaws, and can't be permitted into civilized society. I set out to document the ridiculous nature of this claim on May 4th, during the height of the Critical Mass hatemongering by the Chronicle. On a single 30-minute walk home I photographed so many traffic violations by motorists that I ran out of storage on my camera.So I arm myself with the fact and what I hope are persuasive arguments and vigorously push back. It seems like CycleDog wrote something about that also recently, but I can't find it. Help me out, Ed...
For decades government policy has privileged driving and encouraged anti-social behavior by motorists. Drivers routinely roll through stop signs, drive at excessive speed, run red lights, fail to yield to pedestrians, block fire hydrants, double park in bike lanes, drive under the influence, and use horns excessively. Only a fraction of this vehicular crime is punished. Each and every year motorists kill more than 42,000 people, hospitalize hundreds of thousands more, and cause billions of dollars of property damage. Motorist endangerment is so ubiquitous that even the Vatican has issued 10 commandments for drivers. And yet the perception in the U.S. is that bicyclists are the greater miscreants?
My best advice to any bicyclist encountering such bias is to vigorously push back. Bicyclist behavior is entirely consistent with traffic behavior in general. Which transportation mode poses the greatest danger? Which mode offers the greatest social benefit?

Tornados pick up first SAC win 81-68 over EaglesJanuary 5, 2011
Five Tornados scored in double-figures in the win
Brevard, N.C. - The Brevard College women's basketball team was able to pick up their first South Atlantic Conference victory on Wednesday night when they defeated the Carson-Newman Eagles 81-68 at Boshamer Gymnasium.
Five Tornados were in double-figures in the win and with the victory the Tornados improve to 5-8 overall and 1-2 in conference play.
Brevard took their first lead after Brianna Worley (Asheville, N.C.) hit a layup with 18:20 on the clock on the first half. The Tornados were up 6-4 and they never trailed throughout the remainder of the game as they 53.7% from the field and 45.5% from three-point land.
Despite falling behind by two in the opening minute, they were able to regain control of the game quickly. They were never trailing the Eagles following Worley's first two points of the game at 18:37. After taking their first lead at the 18:20 mark in the first half, the Tornados continued to build on their lead going up by as many as five in the first 15 minutes of play. Carson-Newman was able to tie things up at the 6:20 mark when they scored four straight points, making it 22-22. The Tornados followed up by going on a 14-3 run and were up by 11 with 2:14 left in the first half. Brevard took the game into half up by eight.
Anna Schlobohm (Greensboro, N.C.) led Brevard in the first half with 12 points. She was 5-of-6 from the field in the first half and 2-for-2 from three-point range. Worley had eight points at the break and was 4-of-7 from the field, while Holli Flippo (Kingston Springs, Tenn.) had seven in the first 20 minutes. Mandy Mendenhall led all-scorers in the first half by dropping 13 for Carson-Newman.
The Tornados came out scorching in the second half scoring the first 10 points. Lindsay Brendle (High Point, N.C.) sparked things for Brevard by hitting a three-ball in the first 13 seconds of the half. Brevard took an 18 point lead when Amanda Whitaker (Asheville, N.C.) hit a layup with 18:33 remaining in the game. The Tornados were able to keep a double-digit lead throughout the remainder of the game, and led by as many as 19 in the game. BC was hot from down town in the second half as they shot 50% from behind the arc. They shot 50% from the field as well, going 13-of-26 in the final 20 minutes of play.
Scholobohm led Brevard with 18 points in the win. She was 7-of-10 from the field and a perfect 4-for-4 from three-point land. She also dished out three assists and pulled down three rebounds in the win. Four other Tornados were in double-digits as Brendle followed up with 17 points of her own. She was 6-for-11 from the field and 3-of-5 from behind the arc. Micheala Watkins (Forest City, N.C.) had 16 points, seven assists and two steals in the victory. Worley and Flippo each contributed with 10 points a piece. Flippo and Whitaker led Brevard with six rebounds each. Mendenhall led all-scorers in the game with 22 points for the Eagles. Freshman forward, Shannon Depew, added 15 points of her own for Carson-Newman, as well as, eight rebounds.
The BC women are back in action on Saturday when they play host to the Mars Hill Lions at Boshamer Gymnasium. Tip-off is set for 2 p.m. as they look to the Lions their second SAC loss of the season. If you can't make it to the game, be sure to follow all the action live at 1240-AM WSQL or online at WSQLRadio.com.

SCALE 9X, Day 2.0: Sunday morning coming down
Yeah, it's the last day, but there's no reason why you can't join in. Registration is still open for SCALE 9X — register now by clicking on the winking penguin. Better do it quick, though — SCALE 9X wraps up at the end of the day.!
First on the to-do list when I get home: Lobby the legislature to make days longer; 36 hours apiece, maybe. The reason is that I can never get enough things done during the course of a 24-hour day, especially where shows like SCALE 9X are involved.
As for Saturday, SCALE 9X was — in the words of Jim Rome — "phenomenal," and it appears that Sunday is looking pretty good, too. The Fedora booth was well attended and superbly staffed — Tom Callaway, Alex Acosta, Robyn Bergeron and Scott Williams (and, of course, yours truly) — and with a team like that in a booth, you can be sure that Fedora is putting its best face forward.
SCALE 9X is in a bigger venue this year, with more booths, however the "traffic" problem that has been an issue in years past at the Westin was not evident. In fact, the masses of people descending locust-like onto booths were not as cramped as in years past, and the fact that nearly 1,700 badges were made — for those of you keeping score at home, those are the people who paid and attended — attest to the fact that SCALE and the Hilton may be doing more business for years to come.
Another point that needs magnifying is the wireless at SCALE 9X. With a couple of hiccups, the wireless has been very good at the show overall. Bear in mind that when you have 1,700 geeks running around with wireless capability, you're going to have glitches mostly borne of heavy use. For those of you who don't get that, and have blasted the show because you couldn't get on line at one particular point or another, you need to reassess this.
Again, with my duties as a Fedora booth babe and a SCALE official, I didn't have the time to be one of the aforementioned locust, but I'm hoping that the typically slower pace of the show on Sunday will lend itself to some swag runs. In addition. I'll report back with the best swag of the show in a later missive.
Time to suit up in my hockey jersey . . . .

text: Tiffany Thornton is back at home in Texas. The former Disney star was accused by her husband, Chris Carney, of kidnapping the couple's two young children. Chris filed paperwork to try and return the kids back to California. One big problem in Chris' case is his own mom. You see, Chris' mom is the mayor of Hot Springs, Arkansas so she is going to have some credibility when a judge hears the case. She says that not only did Tiffany not kidnap the kids, she is the one who drove Tiffany to Dallas with the kids because her son is an alcoholic and is a danger to the kids. Chris went to rehab and his mom says that when she discovered that Chris was drinking again, she loaded up Tiffany and the kids into her car and took them to Tiffany's parents' home in Texas. Chris also is going to have a tough time explaining how in his papers he had no idea where Tiffany was and had not been in contact with her because Chris' mom said she witnessed Tiffany speaking to Chris every day during the drive.

Cool article, I was hoping to find a hidden gem. My must-have is Activator, but I won't dispute this list.
I've never noticed Winterboard messing with fonts on retina displays. Did you install Comic Sans or something cool like that? :P
And yea it takes up RAM, but the payoff is worth it. The theme is probably the problem, not Winterboard.
Dreamboard is pretty awesome. I wish I was capable of writing better XML so I could contribute, but that language is just silly. And I miss some iOS features while in Dreamboard, such as Spotlight. Dreamboard will get better as theme creators get better with XML though.
Anthony, you always throw me off when you say "a Twitter tweet" or "a tweet on Twitter". I'm not complaining or anything, I just had to get it off my chest
Sweet, nice roll-up. Thanks. Folder Enhancer is always a must for me. I hate the way the folders open in iOS. Probably one of the sweetest tweaks out there beside Shrink.
Anyone else getting a bug where when they use SBSettings on a iPhone 4S and you respring, once everything is on again it keeps saying No Service until "I" send out a text message...how can i fix this>?
Scratch that...now if i lock the phone...give it a few mins...unlock it...I have no service....whats going on???
Edit: It cant be SBSettings...I uninstalled it and its still happening...wtf...is anyone else getting this problem?
Does Springtomize 2 work with 4s or ipad2?

The Pampers Controversy
A small group of moms is waging an online war with the diaper maker – and something's stinky.
-Mama Betty
There's a storm a brewin' – and once again, it involves moms and the Internet. A fairly small but virulent contingent of moms has started an online war with the new Dry Max diaper from Pampers, and it's turned into a bone fide "Internet Wildfire" with major ramifications for Pampers and its parent company, Procter & Gamble.
Here's the situation: In 2008, Pampers updated its Swaddlers and Cruisers line to be greener and more efficient – the diapers are supposed to be more absorbent and create less waste. Sounds great, right?
Well, not according to people like Rosana Shah, a stay-at-home mother in Denham Springs, La.. According to the Wall Street Journal, Shah says her daughter developed a "very red, very hot" rash after using one of the new diapers. Shah reportedly posted her complaints on the Pampers Web site, called the company and then decided to start a Facebook group called "Pampers Bring Back the Old Cruisers/Swaddlers" to express her outrage over the new diapers. As of right now the page has over 9,500 members, some of whom claim in wall posts that the Dry Max diapers cause "chemical burns."
Not one but two class-action lawsuits have been filed against the company, and the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission has launched an investigation.
Now that's some mommy power!
Or is it?
The Wall Street Journal also reports that Procter & Gamble says that not only are the claims "completely false" but that they are bring "perpetuated by a small number of parents, some of whom support competitors' products or cloth diapers."
Hmm. Cloth-diaper supporters joining an anti-Pampers Facebook page? That's a little, er, stinky, don't you think? (No pun intended – ha!)

2) Tracerouting from multiple locations can give you a good idea.
3) Service/system identification scans can give you a good idea.
4) Observations of target behavior can give you a good idea.
5) Ask the client if they're blocking traffic from your source address.
First the output you've provided does not match the command you've quoted. If you did --traceroute you should have hop counts and info.I tried hping3 (XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX is the IP Address):
And noticed that there are 2 devices responding (different ID's on the TCP packet). Is this assumption correct? Here it goes the output:Code:hping3 -S -p 25 --traceroute -V XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX

Thanks in advance!
I'm pretty sure those marked with DUP! are duplicates, retransmitted for whatever reason. In the results you've quoted it seems packet 4 is a duplicate of packet 1. id should be different for every packet, even those that are retransmitted. From just these limited hping3 results I don't see anything that would lead me to believe XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX is a IDS or FW, there are insufficient details to draw a conclusion.

LONG BEACH - If defense wins championships, Poly High is on its way to the Moore League girls soccer title again.
The visiting Jackrabbits managed another clean sheet Thursday afternoon, playing rival Wilson to a scoreless draw in the showdown for first place just short of the season's midway point.
The matchup was supposed to put one or the other in the driver's seat, but the tie left the two front-runners tied atop the league standings, but with Poly (8-5-2, 4-0-1) maybe an inch closer to back-to-back titles.
"You always hope not to lose on the road," said Jackrabbits coach Teri Collins, whose team will have home-field advantage in the rematch on Feb. 5. "There's still a lot of soccer to be played."
Poly put itself in that position with another impressive, mistake-free defensive effort against a Bruins team that is certainly bigger and stronger. In five league games, the Jackrabbits - keyed by the quartet of Alexis Hagman, Sydney Ellis, Nikki Wadley and Shannon Shier in the back along with goalkeeper Imani McDonald - have yet to give up a goal.
And Wilson, ranked No. 5 in CIF-SS Division 2, didn't get all too close to scoring, as the Jackrabbits held to the Bruins to one shot in the first half and six for the game.
"What I liked was that we still haven't been scored on in league," Collins said. "It something we work hard on."
Even though Collins was proud of the defensive effort, she wasn't particularly happy with her team's offensive performance, especially in the second half as Poly mounted just a few attacks. The Jackrabbits finished with five shots.
On the other side of the field, Bruins coach Dalton Kaufman was livid about his team's lack of offense and scoring opportunities. Wilson (9-4-3, 4-0-1), which dominated the midfield with the play of Claire Oates and Samantha Reinhard in the second half, had the run of play over the final 40 minutes but was never really close to breaking down Poly's defense. The Bruins also failed to use their definite height advantage on set pieces.
"I'm disappointed in the result, to be completely honest," Kaufman said. "In the second half, we were better. But we weren't in midseason form. It looked more like the first couple of games of the season."
Neither team managed to get close to scoring a goal until late in the first half, when Poly failed to produce on a pair of free kicks, one that bounced around in the box before goalkeeper Samantha Moreno grabbed the loose ball and the other, off the foot of Therese Perales, that Moreno snared from just under the crossbar.
The Jackrabbits' only other chance came off another Perales free kick in the closing minutes, a high bouncer that Moreno had to tip over the goal.
All of Wilson's shots, save for one soft shot from the outside, were off target.

By Kevin Grandia • Monday, October 19, 2009 - 17:12
It was a busy weekend for coverage of Jim's new book Climate Cover Up.
As I mentioned before, if you're a blogger or a media outlet and you would like a review copy please email me at: [email protected].
Here's a round-up of the latest media and online stories:
Climate change dispute a 'fake debate,' expert says
Confused by all the mixed messages about climate change? There's a good reason for that, says a public relations expert, who argues in a new book that the so-called global warming debate is a tug-of-war between clever PR tactics and sound science.
Book draws attention to climate change 'coverup' by fossil-fuel industry
Public relations executive James Hoggan says there's no doubt that his new book is provoking some angry reactions from people with its revelations about what is shaping public opinion on global warming.
Hot Topic: Climate Cover-Up
Public relations executive James Hoggan says there's no doubt that his new book is provoking some angry reactions from people with its revelations about what is shaping public opinion on global warming.
Hoggan's climate change 'coverup' tome sparks reaction
"This should be illegal. People should not be able to pull off this kind of deception and get away with it. And I'm not saying let's bring out the chains and lock up free speech. What I'm saying is that we should know who is paying for these things."
New book by Vancouver author details 'crusade' to deny global warming
Public-relations executive James Hoggan says there's no doubt that his new book is provoking some angry reactions from people with its revelations about what is shaping public opinion on global warming.
Peter Foster: The weather exploiters
No names are given, but the evidence is apparently in a book called Climate Cover-Up, by James Hoggan, a close associate of Mr. Suzuki.
Liz Veazy: Climate Cover-Up
I'm sure most of you are familiar with the long-standing deception campaign against global warming.
Climate Cover-up - James Hoggan
This book clearly outlines the millions of dollars spent by huge corporations for the purpose of denying that global warming exists.
Climate Cover Up: The Second Extract
Steve Mcintyre outs more climate coverup(excellent work)
(Any reasonable person would say that a key IPCC team leader was and is a fraud. There was a warmer Medieval Warm Period and our current temperatures are not in any way "unprecedented". Ergo.. the alarmists do not wearing any clothes..)
Re-Visiting the "Yamal Substitution"
by Steve McIntyre on October 19th, 2009
Relationship to Local Temperature
Both Jeff Id and I (and others) have discussed on many occasions that there is a notable bias in selecting proxies from a similarly constructed population (e.g. larch chronologies) ex post. However, for present purposes, even if this point is set aside for now and we temporarily stipulate the validity of such a procedure, the temperature relationships do not permit a preferential selection of Yamal over Polar Urals.
The Polar Urals chronology has a statistically significant relationship to annual temperature of the corresponding HadCRU/CRUTEM gridcell, while Yamal does not (Polar Urals t-statistic - 3.37; Yamal 0.92). For reference the correlation of the Polar Urals chronology to annual temperature is 0.31 (Yamal: 0.14). Both chronologies have statistically significant relationships to June-July temperature, but the t-statistic for Polar Urals is a bit higher (Polar Urals t-statistic - 5.90; Yamal 4.29; correlations are Polar Urals 0.50; Yamal 0.55). Any practising statistician would take the position that the t-statistic, which takes into consideration the number of measurements, is the relevant measure of statistical significance, a point known since the early 20th century.
Thus, both chronologies have a "statistically significant" correlation to summer temperature while being inconsistent in their medieval-modern relationship. This is a point that we've discussed from time to time - mainly to illustrate the difficulty of establishing confidence intervals when confronted with such a problem. I made a similar point in my online review of Juckes et al, contesting their interpretation of "99.9% significant". In my AR4 Review Comments, I pointed out this ambiguity specifically in the context of these two series as follows:
There is an updated version of the Polar Urals series, used in Esper et al 2002, which has elevated MWP values and which has better correlations to gridcell temperature than the Yamal series. since very different results are obtained from the Yamal and Polar Urals Updated, again the relationship of the Yamal series to local temperature is "ambiguous" [ a term used in the caption to the figure being commented on]
In his capacity of IPCC section author, Briffa simply brushed aside this and related comments without providing any sort of plausible answer as discussed in a prior thread on Yamal in IPCC AR4, while conceding that both "the Polar Urals and Yamal series do exhibit a significant relationship with local summer temperature."
In any event, the relationships of the chronologies to gridcell temperature do not provide any statistical or scientific basis for preferentially selecting the Yamal chronology over the Polar URals chronology into a multiproxy reconstruction.

EdB, Keith Briffa has more
EdB, Keith Briffa has more scientific credibility in a follicle of his hair than Steve McIntyre does. Also, have you seen the following graph? It shows that the MWP is far from being warmer than today.
This is from several reconstructions, not just one. Average it out and the MWP was about a half a degree cooler than today.
Hhaha that is funny!
Briffa will one day be fired for gross incompetence, thats for sure.
What he did was so fundamentally unscientific there is no way he should hold on to his position.
Making very bad analysis is forgivable, for amateurs, but Briffa was not an amateur. To compound that with a refusal to provide data to McIntyre, IPCC, co-authors.. when that data would allow others to find gross errors in his work.. well, that is evidence of coverup, ie, proof of a fraud. Jail time is what the layman would expect.
The IPCC case for "unprecedented" warming is thusly falsified. It was based upon bogus science done by one of its wown members.
McIntyre is a hero of Northwest Mounted Police tradition.. against all odds, after 9 years of pursuit, he gets his man!!
Jim Eager replied on Permalink
The resident libelous McI sychophant bemoans:
"a refusal to provide data to McIntyre"
Data that was not Briffa's to give to a third party, data McI now admits he had all along.
You are feeding the RealClimate disinformation to us when you claim SM had the data all along. SM had data, but he did not know what the full data set was, so he asked for it, and was refused.
As for Briffa not being able to release it, he needed to release it as part of publishing a paper, where disclosure is REQUIRED. The onus was on him to get those permissions. If that required putting the Russian names on the paper as contributors, so be it.
IMO, Briffa is a bogus researcher, pure and simple. He needs to be fired. He is the Bernie Madoff of the climate world.
The truth is my shield
Let Briffa sue me, as I would love to ask him in front of jury why he hid the data from S McIntyre and others.
Any jury would discount his credibility.

quit linking to doctored graphs
you idiots keep linking to these false graphs of the MWP. There was a graph of the MWP long before al gore and your team came along. Your team changed the graph, so it is now incorrect.
climate criminal replied on Permalink
Re the MWP
Is this the graph you were wittering on about?
This so called 'graph' was effectively a sketch. At that time there was insufficient data to create such a graph. This curve was based on Lamb's estimated climate history for central England.
Note for Trolls
Intelligent readers will notice that there are no vertical scale graduations!
garth west replied on Permalink
Hoggan's credibility
Seems to me that Jim Hoggan is on somewhat shaky ground himself.
His financial and public support for the Campbell government and its utterly ineffectual climate policy makes his criticism of 'big oil' just a trifle hypocritical.
The province of B.C. had a chance to vote for change on May 12 - instead, at the urging of Hoggan and a large handful of so-called climate 'experts' Gordon Campbell's neo conservative government was re-elected for another four years.
I hope folks who buy Hoggan's book will take the time to investigate exactly how two-faced the advertising business really is. It's not just the oil industry that pays for the message it wants to hear.
When I got a personal phone call from Andrew Weaver asking me to vote for Gordon Campbell to 'save' the environment on May 11 I knew we were living in a modern version of 'Through the Looking Glass.'
Sorry Mr. Hoggan, I think you need to take another look at your own feet.
We need to call foul on opportunists and dissemblers like Hoggan and his ilk…power means an awful lot more to them than the truth. Cheers.
Well, frankly, I thought
Well, frankly, I thought DeSmogBlog pushed for Campbell too much, and I would like to see them holding his feet to the fire.
well well well... Mr Weaver eh?
I bought his book, only to find that he misinformed me about Steve McIntyre when he implied that SM was proven wrong, or that the hockey stick was vindicated by others.
Now why would a professor not do what Steve McIntyre did, that is, check the work of Mann etc to find if the hockey stick was valid? Hmm? Lack of skill statistically? Lack of interest as AGW cool aid is the beverage of choice? Would funding be lost if he were to challenge the AGW belief?
Maybe it is politics. I don't know, but I was SHOCKED to realize that a Professor at U of Vic was feeding me bullshite in a book..
(At least D Suzuki has an excuse, he has been a promoter for 40 years, and stopped doing science)

Wow & Double Wow
Amazon delivered your book -actually 2 copies, I must have hit an order button twice, but I will give the extra to a friend I am seeing today.
The wow is for your writing. I read the first chapter and it is compelling. I recommend anybody buy it, it is easy to read and not expensive. I hope many people take it seriously. They are destroying our democracy with crass lies, as well as our planet. I like the concluding sentence of the first chapter, "our planet is worth saving."
Further comments later. Let me explain that it is unusual for me to give gushing reviews. I feel out of character.

Global warming cover up
There is great confusion about global warming. I have read of over 30,000 real scientists, not business people or polititions that don't agree with the findings of Al Gore and his comrades. I guess only time will tell. What ever the case I believe it prudent to reduce polution and have wise stewardship of the earth's lifeforms. We all need a clean environment.

Basically a nicely written
Basically a nicely written comment with one exception. That 30,000 list won't float around here. Too many dead people and non scientists are on it.
Nice reference to Gore's "comrades" though. The communism thing is always a handy thing to throw in.

The directory tree within the User Data Directory is the same as the Installation Data Directory. Any file which exists in the User Data Directory will over-ride that in the Installation Data Directory.
For example, to modify the position of a nebula texture, the user may copy the
nebulae/default/nebula_textures.fab file from the Installation Data Directory to the
nebulae/default sub-directory of the User Data Directory and modify it there. In this manner, each user on a multi-user system may have their own customized Stellarium data files.

|It depends on where Stellarium is installed. The main Stellarium installation directory is the Installation Data Directory. Typically this will be

|MacOS X
|The Installation Data Directory is found inside the application bundle.
Important data files which may be found in the Installation Data Directory include:
data/ssystem.ini: the solar system bodies description file
stars/default/*: star catalogues
nebulae/default/*: nebula textures and data files
scripts/: script files
textures/: general purpose texture files (button icons etc)
landscapes/*\/*: landscape textures and data files
If a file exists in the User Data Directory, it will be used in preference to a file with the same name existing in the Installation Data Directory. This allows users to customise data files, textures and so on without modifying the originally installed files.
There are several reasons for doing this:
try ... catch ... exception handling when using it.
For example. You are writing a class called Comet, and wish to search for a data file called
comets.dat located in the
data directory, you would go about it like this:
QString path; try { path = StelApp::getInstance().getFileMgr().findFile("data/comets.dat"); } catch(std::runtime_error& e) { qWarning() << "Could not locate file: data/comets.dat : " << e.what(); } ...
As you can see, the file is specified only by the partial path. This partial path is appended first to the User Data Directory. If, and only if the file is not found there, it is searched for in the Installation Data Directory. Thus if the user has a customised copy at:
<User Data Directory>/data/comets.dat it will be used, else the version in the Installation Data Directory will be used.
The files which come with Stellarium are found by the partial paths:
stars/default/stars_0_0v0_1.cat stars/default/stars_1_0v0_1.cat stars/default/stars_2_0v0_1.cat stars/default/stars_3_1v0_1.cat
Naturally, these files are to be located in the Installation Data Directory (because they ship with the installer).
The catalogue downloader tool runs within Stellarium. When it downloads extra star catalogue files, it should place them in the User Data Directory. After downloading all the catalogues, the paths to the various files should look like this:
<Installation Data Directory>/stars/default/stars_0_0v0_1.cat <Installation Data Directory>/stars/default/stars_1_0v0_1.cat <Installation Data Directory>/stars/default/stars_2_0v0_1.cat <Installation Data Directory>/stars/default/stars_3_1v0_1.cat <User Data Directory>/stars/default/stars_4_1v0_0.cat <User Data Directory>/stars/default/stars_5_2v0_0.cat <User Data Directory>/stars/default/stars_6_2v0_0.cat <User Data Directory>/stars/default/stars_7_2v0_0.cat <User Data Directory>/stars/default/stars_8_2v0_0.cat
It might be that someone makes a customised installer of Stellarium which includes all the star catalogues with the main installation - perhaps on a special edition DVD. In this case, all the files would be in the <Installation Data Directory>/stars/default directory.

I wasn't sure what to call this dish. It's based on a recipe called "Spicy Eggplant Relish" but I'm not entirely sure mine was very relish-like. I could see it topping off a rice dish, or dipping some pita in it, for sure. But me? I just went straight at it with a fork. And later over a more ladylike bed of greens, with an extra drizzle of olive oil.
Do what you want with it. Call it what you want, even. It doesn't matter when we're dealing with soft, velvety eggplant, addicting peppery heat and sweet fresh herbs and tomatoes, right? Right.
I snagged a copy of the Moosewood Cookbook at our local used book store and was instantly charmed by it. Mollie Katzen's handwritten and hand-illustrated pages, along with her nurturing and laid back writing style, make it feel like the book was made just for me. First published in 1978, the Moosewood Cookbook is based on recipes from the kitchen of the Moosewood Restaurant in Ithaca, New York.
The restaurant was started by a collective of friends in a converted school gym. With an emphasis on vegetarian cuisine and seasonal produce, The Moosewood created many diverse and inventive vegetable-based dishes that were ahead of their time. (With the exception of the dated overuse of cottage cheese. But we're totally cool with overlooking that.)
With the overwhelming amount of new cookbooks on my to-buy list, it's refreshing to go back to something a bit old school. The recipes give numerous suggestions for additions and alterations that open each recipe up to personal interpretation. Thus, we end up with some kind of salad-relish hybrid that is just groovy with me.
Spicy Eggplant Relish/Salad
adapted from the Moosewood Cookbook (serves 4 as a side)
– 3 tablespoons olive oil, divided
– 1 large eggplant, chopped into 1 inch/2.5 cm pieces
– 1 small red onion, diced
– 2 cloves garlic, finely chopped
– 1 small-medium green pepper/capsicum
– 1/2 teaspoon smokey paprika
– 1/2 teaspoon cumin
– 1/2 teaspoon cayenne
– 1/3 cup mixture of fresh chopped parsley and basil
– 10 cherry tomatoes, halved or quartered
– salt & pepper
Heat one tablespoon olive oil in a large pan over a medium high beat. Add onions and garlic and cook for about 2-3 minutes.
Add another tablespoon of olive oil and the eggplant. Cook for 5 minutes. Add paprika, cumin, cayenne, salt and pepper and stir well.
Add a tablespoon of water, reduce heat to medium-low and cover the pan to cook for another 10 minutes. After this your eggplant should be soft (cook covered for a few more minutes if not.) Remove from pan and set aside.
In the same pan heat your last tablespoon of olive oil and cook green pepper/capsicum over a medium high heat for 3-4 minutes, until slightly tender. Add to the eggplant mixture and allow to cool at room temperature or in the fridge.
Once cooled add diced tomatoes, half of the fresh herbs and salt and pepper to taste, mix well. Top with the remaining herbs. Serve chilled or at room temperature in a pita, over salad greens, on crackers, etc.

Happy New year!ReplyDelete
Best Wishes for 2009!!
I read your blog every day!
This sounds like the perfect meal for a cold snowy day. I am looking forward to many more postings from all you girls in 2009>ReplyDelete
Anneliese. . .another really tasty looking meal. . .I've made a very similar one for camping in a foil pouch. .. your picture makes my mouth water. . .I'm looking at that bread too. . yum.ReplyDelete
surprised to see your recipe today.. I have the exact one that I got from my friend and have been making it for some time. Tastes great..ReplyDelete
In recently discovering your blog, I have come to appreciate all of the familiar products and dishes that come from the Mennonite background. (My inlaws are Mennonite).ReplyDelete
Farmer Sausage is a staple in our household. I use it in soups and casseroles and BBQ it and give it away to other "foodies" who don't have access to the pariticularly good local Farmer Sausage.
Keep on inspiring me and tempting me with your recipes.
Just to let you know, that bread is Lovella's "no knead multigrain bread" and it is so easy and sooo good! You just have to think of mixing it before you go to bed. The next day you bake it after lunch. It's moist and wonderful!ReplyDelete
And you don't have a heavy pot, bake it in a covered casserole dish...that's what I do.
Oh Anneliese...I knew, when I saw the picture, that this would be a post of yours. Soooo very yummy and tempting this dish is! Thanks for sharing. It is interesting, but those who don't have the same frame of reference as we do might wonder at the term "farmer's sausage"...but if you have NEVER had that EXACT sausage...you just don't know what you are missing! It is soooo good...so difficult to find if you are not in a community where they make it! Great post ...ReplyDelete
HAPPY NEW YEAR!!! We have about 100 lbs of sausage in the freezer - always looking for new ways to use it and I love scalloped potatoes. Thank-you for all the wonderful recipes - look forward to seeing many more in '09!ReplyDelete
We enjoy a dish that is much like this...there's nothing quite like a potato and farmer sausage casserole! Thanks for posting this, Anneliese.ReplyDelete
Looks so yummy. My family will love that mixture. Now I know how to cook up the left over sausage.ReplyDelete
I love your recipes.
Happy New Year and this recipe looks great to. I am so glad i found you site. I have always loved recipes from Amish and Mennonite backrounds it truly is real home cooking which is something i adore.ReplyDelete
This meal went over very well with our friends the other night. I used my food processor to slice all the potatoes and grate the cheese...that worked really well. Thanks for the great recipe!ReplyDelete

I love this blog..... I learned to cook from my mother, usually without recipies, I make bread, zwieback, meat buns and more. My duaghters and now my daughter in law keep asking. Are you going to bring a meno dish? they love it. Now thanks to your blog, they are starting to make it themselves and they are getting good at it. This saturday we are all getting together to make zwieback, I am laughing already when I think of their long nails in that dough..hahaha. but your recipies are such a help. thank youReplyDelete
i love this recipe! It is the first (and only) farmer sausage recipe that my 4-year-old daughter has not only completely finished, but it did not take one single plea with her to eat it!!! And the rest of us love it too! Thanks :)ReplyDelete

my family and i love love love winkler farmer sausage, and i've always wanted to cook it a different way. do i have to cook the sausage first before making the casserole? also, all i have are white potatoes.ReplyDelete
- AnonymousJanuary 24, 2011 at 1:00 PM
Great recipe. I forgot about this recipe until I read your blog. I love the flavour of Winkler Farmer Sausage cooked with the potatoes.ReplyDelete
I made this today, but I put it in the slow-cooker on low for 10 hours. I also doubled the recipe & tripled the sauce. Thank you for sharing this recipe, it was sooooo yummy!!! I love seeing recipes like this, with familiar foods like farmer's sausage!!ReplyDelete
I made this for supper last night and it was by far the best scalloped potatoes we have ever had! My 4 yr old asked for the leftovers for breakfast this morning :) The farmer sausage gives it a wonderful flavor.ReplyDelete
- AnonymousMarch 25, 2012 at 12:15 PM
Dear Anneliese, what is that bread in the background? Thanks!ReplyDelete
Todd, it's lovella's multigrain no knead bread found here ... http://www.mennonitegirlscancook.ca/2008/10/multigrain-no-knead-bread.htmlReplyDelete
I'm going to make this for dinner tonight!! should I pre-cook the sausage first?? I'm using 1 1/2" thick smoked pork Farmers sausage...ReplyDeleteReplies
No need to pre-cook the sausage if it's smoked. Just slice and layer with raw potatoes. It will cook further with the potatoes.Delete
Thanks!! can't wait to eat this tonight!!ReplyDelete
Will this freeze?ReplyDelete
I'm not sure about freezing potatoes. I think some flavor and texture would be lost.ReplyDelete
- AnonymousNovember 10, 2012 at 9:34 AM
Looks great, however the recipe doesn't mention how many servings it makes.ReplyDelete
I'm guessing 4 to 6 from the number of potatoes listed.ReplyDelete
- AnonymousDecember 10, 2012 at 4:40 PM
Delicious!! Super easy to make. Everyone loved it. The only thing I changed was the milk, I did half milk, half whipped cream (only because I need to use up the cream).ReplyDelete
- AnonymousFebruary 2, 2014 at 12:57 AM
Thank you so much for the delicious recipes! I made this one for supper last night only making a few changes, I omitted the cheese and salt and added onions to the layers mmmm, mmmm delicious!ReplyDelete
I made this today! Just without the mushroom sauce and added more milk. It was good!! Thanks for the recipe!ReplyDelete
Explain farmer's sausage, please. Is this available in grocery stores or taken from your own butchered meat?ReplyDeleteReplies
Farmer sausage is a smoked pork sausage of Mennonite origin and can be bought in stores or meat markets in areas where there are a significant number of Mennonites.Delete
Do you bake this covered or uncovered?ReplyDeleteReplies
I'd say it's up to you and how you like the top done. If you like a bit of crispy top then you can leave it uncovered. (I'd say to cover for the first half hour and then uncover, or the other way around.)Delete

Oliver Stone's movie World Trade Center is scheduled to be released on August 9th. Trailers for the movie will begin in the next few weeks and are scheduled to be shown before the movie Da Vinci Code (though each movie theater has the final say). Print and television ads will come later in the summer. FOS11 has been in contact with the film production team and as we learn more details about the movie, potential private screenings, and its advertising plan, we will be sure to update our members.
You may want to be aware if the trailer is going to be shown before a film you are planning to attend. If you anticipate that you do not want to see the trailer, don't be afraid to ask theater staff if it will be shown. Feel free to ask to speak to the movie theater manager to find out what trailers are being shown before the movie you are about to see - this may take some time, so plan appropriately. Likewise, the decision to view the movie may be difficult for family members. We encourage you to talk with loved ones before viewing the movie and to consider ways to help prepare yourself for the types of reactions you may experience. Some resources that might be helpful are:
As always we appreciate your feedback and you may post your thoughts on our bulletin board by emailing firstname.lastname@example.com.

This breakout group discussed education, training and certification programs for death investigators. Group members examined
coroner qualifications and training in Ohio. They also explored certification programs in St. Louis, Mo., and forensic pathology
training in the Polk County, Iowa, Medical Examiner's Office.
Learn about St. Louis University's Medicolegal Death Investigation Training Course.
The group — which contained forensic pathologists, coroners, investigators, toxicologists and anthropologists — identified
a strong need for improved communication, increased collaboration and outreach, and greater educational opportunities for
the forensic death investigation community.
Participants made the following recommendations:
We need a unified system of medicolegal death investigation, no matter the titles, said O'Dell Owens, a coroner and president
of the International Association of Coroners and Medical Examiners. This system would then require standards and increased
training. But money drives everything, Owens added. There must be a way to increase funding so the field can have better training.

Obama: Terrorists picked the wrong city if they intended to intimidate Americans
PHOTOS: Boston Recovers From Terrorist Attack at Marathon
(Boston, MA) -- President Obama claims the spirit of Boston and the broader U.S. is undaunted after Monday's deadly terrorist bombings. At an interfaith prayer service for the bombing victims, Obama noted that all Americans have been touched by the tragedy at the Boston Marathon. He said, "It's personal." Two blasts near the finish line left three people dead and more than 170 injured. The President said Boston's resolve is the greatest rebuke to those responsible for the bombings. The interfaith service took place at Boston's Cathedral of the Holy Cross.
Boston Mayor Thomas Menino cited the strength and courage of his city in the tragedy's aftermath. He praised first responders and good Samaritans who rushed to the aid of victims. Massachusetts Governor Deval Patrick condemned the, quote, "cowardice unleashed on us." He said Boston and the USA cannot let darkness and hate triumph. A large number of dignitaries attended the service, including former Massachusetts Governor and GOP presidential nominee Mitt Romney.

U.K. invasion
Royal-wedding fever is sweeping NYC. Track down all of your Anglo essentials at the city's latest crop of British restaurants, pubs and speciality food shops before the big day.
Afternoon tea: The Crosby Street Hotel
High tea calls to mind white-gloved butlers and stodgy drawing rooms, but this buzzy boutique—the first stateside outpost of London's trendy Firmdale hotel chain—gives the tradition a downtown makeover. The plush Crosby Bar's striped banquettes, Moroccan-inspired caf tables and cheeky art (including Warholian portraits of Queen Elizabeth II) set the scene for the irreverent Crosby Afternoon Tea (served 2--5pm; $34 per person). Pots of loose-leaf tea come with a three-tiered glass tray that juxtaposes dainty finger sandwiches (smoked salmon and dill, egg mayonnaise and mustard cress) with a rotating selection of decidedly un-English desserts such as red velvet cupcakes and fat brownies laced with peanut-butter mousse. Traditionalists will forgive the liberties when they bite into excellent house-made scones served with clotted cream, marmalade and strawberry jam. Enjoy the spread on a shaded patio when the weather's nice (or anytime it's not raining, if you're British), and throw in an extra $14 if you want to blow it out with a flute of crisp bubbly. 79 Crosby St between Prince and Spring Sts (212-226-6400)
Roasted meats: Oxley's Carvery
Get your meat and two veg at this Nolita nook, which doles out carvery staples under the guise of a British butcher's shop. While the bowler-hat--sporting staff isn't wielding any cleavers behind the counter, they do slice a selection of roasted meats to your liking (leg of lamb, pork shoulder, rump steak), served alongside authentic sides such as puffy Yorkshire puddings and rosemary-kissed new potatoes. The sausages, too, are serious business—juicy, coarsely ground bangers custom-made based on a traditional Lincolnshire recipe. But the takeout-shop setup is most conducive to grabbing a sandwich for the road. Along with pressed toasties (English-style panini, $10.50), Oxley's delivers a turkey two-hander that recalls an English Christmas dinner: a massive, flour-dusted white-bread bun cradling generous slices of moist poultry, savory homemade stuffing and chunky cranberry sauce. At $7, it's one of the 'hood's best lunch deals. 202A Mott St between Kenmare and Spring Sts (212-343-0550)
British sweets: The London Candy Company
Plenty of bodegas stock U.K. imports like Twirls, HobNobs and Yorkies, but this Upper East Side candy store is singular in its commitment to sourcing hard-to-find English sweets. The sugary bounty—arranged along wooden shelves and stuffed into black baskets—could set any British schoolboy's heart racing. We bit into Crunchie bars, full of honeycomb-like toffee that shatters in your mouth, and picked up boxes of jelly-filled Jaffa Cakes to dunk into our tea. True British-confectionery geeks can get English-made Cadbury treats (creamier than the American ilk) and novelties such as Terry's Chocolate Oranges, which break into segments just like the fruit. After plundering the goodies, sit by the floor-to-ceiling windows and sip a mug of malty Horlicks, frothed to perfection by a barista. 1442 Lexington Ave at 94th St (212-427-2129)
Pints: Black Horse Pub
English transplant Brian McNally channels Britain by way of Brooklyn at his Windsor Terrace saloon, dressing up the standard wood-and-exposed-brick interior with mixed-media paintings depicting English pop icons like the Clash, Massive Attack and Del Boy (of the classic BBC comedy Only Fools and Horses). The pub captures the essence of a local boozer across the pond—a convivial place to read the paper or match wits over a few jars of ale. And fittingly, the banter tends to center on English Premier League soccer, especially on weekends when committed fans pour in early to watch live matches. Order a cup of tea and full English breakfast ($12), featuring proper fried bread and Myers of Keswick bangers; then, move on to 20-ounce imperial pints of creamy Boddingtons ($6) or pitchers of local brews like Ommegang BPA ($22). Catch a London rivalry on Saturday 30, when Chelsea takes on Tottenham at 12:30pm, or set the alarm on Sunday 1 for a true clash of the titans—Manchester United versus Arsenal at 9:05am. 568 Fifth Ave at 16th St, Windsor Terrace, Brooklyn (718-788-1975)
Gastropub grub: Jones Wood Foundry
Unless April Bloomfield's behind the burner, English food tends to draw disinterested shrugs in NYC. But at this refined UES newcomer, chef Jason Hicks—an expat and fine-dining vet (Aureole, Orsay)—gives authentic fare genuine appeal, serving comforting dishes such as Lancashire hot pots and sherry trifle in a chic approximation of a countryside pub. A long, woody front bar leads downstairs to a recessed atrium and a homey dining room dressed up with pheasant-emblazoned place mats and shelves lined with Shakespeare tomes. Well-executed classics include brunch items like house-made crumpets with lemon curd ($7); a toad-in-the-hole ($14) that cloaks chipolata sausages and sweet caramelized onions in eggy Yorkshire pudding batter; and a bowl of kedgeree ($7)—fragrant rice pilaf featuring hunks of smoked haddock and boiled egg tossed with saffron, parsley and curry sauce. Hicks has a knack for sprucing up the English pantry with seasonal ingredients, so keep an eye on the specials board for weekend roasts and rotating pie fillings like Moroccan lamb, fresh eel and cider-braised pork shoulder. 401 E 76th St between First and York Aves (212-249-2700)
Anglo snacks: Shi Eurasia
This shoebox-size Eurasian minimart is the brainchild of three friends who met at the University of Manchester and hatched a plan to one day open a store together in NYC. Homesickness informs the delightfully odd stock on the shelves, made up of snacks, soft drinks and other creature comforts the shopkeepers miss from their native countries—England, Iceland and Malaysia. The U.K. imports go well beyond the usual suspects like McVitie's digestive biscuits and Cadbury chocolates, offering harder-to-find gems such as Ribena—a condensed black-currant juice—and Twiglets, knobbly sticks of puffed wheat that taste vaguely like Marmite. Other corner-shop staples include Nescaf instant-cappuccino pouches, Heinz Salad Cream (a tangy mayonnaise) and crinkly packets of Walkers potato crisps—plus cups of PG Tips ($1.50) brewed behind the register to sip while you browse. Grab a haul of your favorite goodies, then throw in some Icelandic chocolates and freeze-dried durian for good measure. 143A Orchard St between Delancey and Rivington Sts (212-228-7982)

Where to watch the royal wedding
High Street on Hudson
At some restaurants, bread is an afterthought—baskets of chalky, uninspired dinner rolls shuffled out with chilled, foil-wrapped butter. This is not that restaurant, and it's certainly not that bread. At High Street on Hudson, the day-to-night West Village sibling to chef Eli Kulp and Ellen Yin's lauded Philadelphia restaurant, High Street on Market, head baker Alex Bois's astonishing loaves—potent New World ryes, hearty German-style vollkornbrot, anadama miche enriched with molasses—obliterate the idea of bread as mere mealtime filler. Here, it is the meal. In the morning, it takes the form of pillowy, amply poppy-seeded potato rolls that come slathered with plucky gherkin mayo and padded with thick slices of sweet Lancaster bologna, horseradish-zapped Amish cheddar and fried red onions in the fan-favorite Hickory Town sandwich ($12); or it's the buttery biscuit, popping with black pepper and subdued with sage, that hugs a cloud-soft egg, malted sausage and melty aged cheddar in the kitchen's gorgeous send-up of a breakfast sandwich ($13). Want those breads at their most unadulterated? A cart strategically set by the venue's entrance with street-facing windows offers Bois's beautiful loaves for retail sale, as well as pastry chef Sam Kincaid's equally great baked goods, from moist coffee-almond date cake ($3.50) to Market's beloved country-ham–draped, gravy-filled red-eye danish ($4.50). Those roaring bread ovens, visible in the open kitchen, alone make High Street a dayt
Venue says: "Serving all day in the West Village New York. Join our mailing list to get the latest offers from High Street on Hudson"

Motley Crue's Nikki Sixx getting married this weekend
Listen to Motley Crue on iHeartRadio
Motley Crue's Nikki Sixx will soon be a married man again. The rocker is tying the knot with girlfriend Courtney Bingham in a ceremony in Hollywood this Saturday.
The wedding follows a courtship that's lasted over three years. The two became a couple in November 2010. Nikki popped the question two years later, while vacationing with Courtney in St. Bart's. At the time Courtney told Hollyscoop.com it was "the most beautiful, romantic proposal," and came as "a total surprise." She added that she was thrilled to be marrying the man of her dreams.
Nikki and Courtney will reveal some of their wedding plans on Friday's "Entertainment Tonight." "ET" will also have highlights from the ceremony on Monday's show.
With this weekend's wedding marks Nikki's third trip down the aisle. The bassist was previously married for seven years to "Playboy" Playmate Brandi Brandt, and spent eleven years as the husband of "Playboy" Playmate and actress Donna D'Errico. His two-year relationship with "L.A. Ink's" Kat Von D ended in August 2010. They were never married. Nikki met Courtney three months later.
