Defending champion Western Christian is off and running in the Class 2A tournament.
The top-ranked Wolfpack built a 26-6 halftime lead and rolled past Pella Christian 65-28 in a rematch of last year's championship game.
The one-sided game allowed Western Christian coach Bill Harmsen to substitute liberally and 11 players found their way into the scorebook for the Wolfpack.
Alissa Pollema and Shae DeJager led the way with 10 points each. Brooke Wolterstorff, the captain of last year's all-tournament team, added eight points and nine rebounds, while Kenzie VandeVegte also scored eight. Sophomore Jamie Gesink had five of the team's 15 steals.
Pella Christian lost to Western 67-57 in the title game last March and made it back to state for the third straight year despite losing all five starters. The Eagles had come into the tournament after winning 12 of their previous 14 games. Paige Engbers led Pella Christian with 12 points. Cori Uitermarkt added 10 points and 10 rebounds.
Western Christian takes a 24-1 record into a semifinal game at 11:45 a.m. Thursday. The Wolfpack will meet a 21-3 Aplington Parkersburg squad that ousted Panorama 48-38 in the quarterfinals. Pella Christian finishes the year at 19-6.

- Story of the Five Bears and Two Goldilocks
Once upon a time far away in cyber land there was a village named blog. There was a good little blogger named Dana. Another blogger named Missy, aka Candy, aka, Missy Moo, aka Missy Stick Figure, aka etc., etc., etc. decided Dana would make an adorable mascot for Bloggers Anonymous so she dressed her up in a little bear suit, holding a bowl with the BA symbol on it.
A third blogger named Red laughed so hard at the little mascot she had to invest heavily in depends stock. She just could picture the little bear hovering over her keyboard typing with those stubby bear fingers giggling under her breath. The little mascot chased Red all over the yahoo 360 playground and Red ran fast because when she saw the bowl in Dana Bears hands she thought the little bear was a cereal killer. (insert giggle here) Red ran and ran until Dana Bear yelled for her to stop, that it was only a bowl to feed da hungry bloggers.
It wasn't but a couple of hours later that Missy Sticky Candy Moo had put Red in her very own little pink bear suit. Red liked it because it had gotten very cold where she lived and the suit was very warm. It was also pink, her favorite color. They all went to bed happy because they had laughed themselves silly.
The next day Red Bear in pink got up and checked her mail and laughed some more to see a Missy Ewok in her mailbox. Dana Bear tacked a note to the picture saying two can play this game muahahahaha! (Well, she didn't say the muahahaha, but I took literary liscense because it made the story better.) An Ewok is kind of like a bear.
Missy Ewok and Red Bear in pink had the simultaneous thought***"Who's going to be Goldilocks?"*** Missy Ewok had already had an idea and had started a dress for PureVizhun as Goldilocks. Red Bear in pink thought of hyiidra who has those beautiful long golden locks and was working so hard now that she bare-ly had time to blog and Red Bear in pink missed her terribly and thought maybe she could be there in spirit. Hence Blondii Goldiilocks.Ok, now where did that other goldilocks run off too?
Missy Ewok, while skipping through the woods one day stumbled upon Mister E. shivering in the dark woods from the cold. She took him back to her cyber land home in blog and put him in a cozy yellow bear suit. That is the day he became The Mister E Yellow Bear. No one is quite sure who he is but the bears and the goldilocks and all of 360 liked him immediately.
In the meantime number 1 Goldilocks aka Pure Goldilocks, known throughout the land for her artistic skills had gone to a wedding in another land where she toasted too much and came home toasted. That goldilocks!, always getting to the porridge or one thing or another, making mischief. She didn't skip home but got there all the same safe and sound. She was inspired to make more mischief and proceeded to take Missy, Red and Dana out of their bear suits and make them bare, literally. She named her creation The Three Graces of Yahoo 360 (blush, blush) Missy was embarrassed and tried to cover the other two up.
During Pure's Inspirational period Red had decided to bug her friend Slim a little. Red liked to do that on game day. She decided since Slim had been largely absent from blog land due to Real Life, she needed a bear suit too. So then there were 5 little bears, the last being Slim Bear.
In the meantime Pure Goldilocks, was working in her little paint shop reinventing Missy, Dana, Red, and herself into the fantastic four once again. Goldilocks and the three bears. So the story has come full circle and it is time for all the Little Bears and Goldilocks to bid you good night.All pictures used with permissionWell, all except hyiidra'spermissionshe was awol

Nyongkolan In Lombok
Nyongkolan In Lombok Nyongkolan In Lombok is a traditional activity that accompanies a series of events in the marriage procession on sasak in Lombok, West Nusa Tenggara. These activities form the procession of the bride groom's home to the bride's house, accompanied by his family and relatives of the groom, wearing traditional clothing, as well as music group or a group that can gamelan musicians tambourine, or drum accompanied beleq the nobility. In practice, because of the distance, the procession is not carried out literally, but usually the group began to walk a distance of 1 to 0.5 km from the bride's house. The purpose of this procession is to introduce them to the public for the couple, especially the relatives and the society in which bride stayed, because usually a whole series of weddings held at the groom. Most participants in this procession usually carry some objects such as crops, vegetables and fruits that will bibagikan on relatives and neighbors bride later.

The 17-month-old boy who was found in his grandparents' backyard koi pond Monday morning has died, officials said.
Ethan Joshua Kimmi died Thursday morning at Wesley Medical Center, hospital spokeswoman Susan Burchill said.
Ethan's family released the following statement:
"It is with great sadness that our beloved Ethan Joshua Kimmi has gone to heaven. In his short life he touched so many people. He never met a single stranger. He is in heaven giving high fives to everyone. Our family would like to thank everyone for their prayers and support. This is a very tough time in our lives. He will be greatly missed."
People willing to help with expenses can go to any Credit Union of America and donate to the Ethan Kimmi Memorial Fund.
Police say Ethan was dropped off at his grandparents' house in the 5100 block of South Madison on Monday morning. He was playing in a screened-in area and apparently got out through a dog door. He was found shortly after 7:30 a.m. lying face up in the pond by a relative.
Investigators have ruled the incident an accident.

Teaching Social Skills
Best Practices in Adaptive Behavior: Teaching Social Behavior Skills in the Classroom to Improve Peer Relationships and Academic Achievement Kyna D. Monroe, M.Ed.
Capella University
This paper delves into utilizing best practices in adaptive behavior through social skills training. This study shows that teaching social skills in the classrooms plays a very important role in students' academic performance and peer interactions. Implications foresee that social skills training will heighten the classroom ecology thereby minimizing negative student interactive behaviors and failure.
Best Practices in Adaptive Behavior: Teaching Social Behavior Skills in the Classroom to Improve Peer Relationships and Academic Achievement
School psychologists have devoted almost exclusive attention to the assessment of and intervention recommendations for cognitive, perceptual-motor, and academic achievement difficulties of students. Studies addressing behaviors necessary for success in the classroom environment have focused upon variables such as overall school climate (Wolf, 2001) and individual student characteristics (Gresham, 1990). A student's characteristics is an important variable in a student's environment to enhance his chances for success because some students succeed in a given situation while others do not, and many behavior characteristics can be modified by educating students in specific skill areas. Outcomes in this research study indicate that specific behavioral competencies such as academic achievement and peer interactions are clearly linked to social skills training lessons taught to students. For this reason, it is believed that social skills is an intricate component to the classroom curriculum and is an important focus in school settings.
The definition of social skills that seems to make the most sense has been termed by Gresham (1990) as the...

Remember, when you give Him your best, He gives you His best in return.
Can you imagine what it must have been like for the Wise Men when they saw Jesus? He was just a child in a stable surrounded by animals, but these Wise Men recognized that He was the King of kings and the Lord of lords; the Savior of the world. Immediately, they fell on their faces to worship Him, but notice what they did next — they presented Him gifts as part of their worship. And they didn't just give any old thing they had; they gave Him their absolute best — costly gold, frankincense and myrrh.
When we give Jesus our absolute best — our time, talent and resources, it is truly an act of worship. We are saying with our actions, "God, You mean more to me than anything. Because You are so awesome, I want to give You everything that I am." It pleases Him when we come to Him with this attitude. When we draw near to Him with an open and humble heart, He draws near to us. Remember, when you give Him your best, He gives you His best in return.
They went into the house, and when they saw te child with his mother Mary,
they knelt down and worshipped him. They brought out their gifts of gold,
frankincense, and myrrh, and presented them to him
(Mathew 2:11).

Monroe County Democrats plan to put up County Legislator Vincent Esposito to run for the State Senate Seat held by incumbent Jim Alesi.
Chairman Joe Morelle expects his protege Esposito to win. It's reported that Morelle recently approached Dr. Joe Carbone, Esposito's Republican challenger in last month's election, with a deal: switch parties, to become a Democrat, and you can have Vinnie's legislative seat when he goes to the Senate. Dr. Carbone is reported to have refused.

If I were betting, I'd put my money on Alesi. His gay marriage vote trumps his stupid lawsuit. And if the Republicans give him any static about running, he could switch parties and be a shoo-in.

Alesi won't get the Republican endorsement at the convention, so he is the one who would have to run a primary. And if he does run a primary, the gay marriage vote won't help him, and will probably hurt him further.
And it remains to be seen if Irondequoit will still be in the district. Skelos will be drawing the lines.

4:48pm, don't fool yourself. Skelos doesn't draw the lines. He doesn't even go to the bathroom without getting permission from Cuomo. The GOP has lost control of the Senate. Cuomo will draw the lines and will also decide whether Alesi gets an opponent, either Dem or GOP.

You really think that Skelos allowed a gay marriage vote AND gave Cuomo his millionaire's tax increase without a deal allowing him to retain Senate redistriciting authority? No way. Moreover, Cuomo wants a Republican Senate. He knows that the Senate Dems are crooked and incompetent. So he was fine with making the trade.
As to the GOP losing control of the Senate...GOP Senators have always been concerned exclusively with themselves.

This has been the Criminal deck that I have been running in Netrunner since I picked up my second core set box. Although it looks and feels rather basic, it has worked really well. (Undefeated so far) As I've mentioned before, when it comes to Netrunner, games are won and lost based on a player's decisions and gameplay throughout the game, and not deck building perfection. Hence, why a basic deck like this can work... it has an answer for everything I have encountered so far. Another perk of it being rather basic means that there are plenty of sub-optimal card choices built in, making updating it when new cards come out much easier. Also, I should note that this deck was created using the CardGameDB.com Android: Netrunner Deck Builder. If you have not checked out CardGameDB.com before and are into ANY of FFG's LCGs, then you probably should! Anyway, on with the deck...

A bit of a general breakdown. I like to run early and often to try and stay ahead on credits. I like to focus on the hand in the early stages unless the corp player leaves R&D open or with a single piece of ice easily bypassed by Inside Job. I save my Infiltrations to use solely on remote servers, which saves me from running into traps. Mid to late game, once the corp player's hand has significantly dwindled down, I switch focus to R&D as often at this time I'm also looking for a final agenda to steal for the win.
Program wise, I've got 2 of each of the main types of breakers. Crypsis is my "catch all", I try not to ever use it, but I will if I'm in a pinch. Femme Fatale is another interesting one, and is in for its ability to let me completely bypass ice. I tend to Femme Fatale ice that I just don't want to deal like "Tollbooth" so I don't spring the 3 credits it would charge me. (Tollbooth sees a lot of play in my area) It is pricey at 9 credits to play, and her ability is situational at best. I threw in 2x Gordian Blades as well, because criminals do not have access to a code breaker at all in the core set.
Finally, my last bit of a strategy is really unorthodox, but I've used it to my advantage in most of my games. I've run into several games where the corp player has built up a strong remote server, only to place an economic card he wants to protect in it like Melange Mining Co, or Adonis Campaign. A lot people will make a run on the remote server so as to not let the corp player get the upper hand in the credit race. Me on the other hand, I let it sit there. Why? Because in my mind, the corp player has just clogged up his strongest server, the one which he'll usually be placing his agendas into with a face up, economic card, and while that card is in play, he'll either be throwing agendas into less protected servers or having them sit in his hand for me to steal! Want to spend all 3 of your clicks on melange to gain 7 credits? Go ahead! I'll just hit your hand a couple times, or perhaps R&D knowing that there wont be any agendas placed in your main protected remote server while melange or adonis is in play. The constant hitting of other servers also forces the corp player to spend the credits he/she gains, even better when I have an account siphon in hand, which thus keeps his/her remote server clogged for even more turns since he/she isn't able to gain as much as he/she would have liked. In almost every game where the corp player has done this and I have used the above plan, I have been able to steal an agenda from the corp player at least once, if not twice, and usually winning me the game in the process. It's unorthodox, and many people will probably tell you that it isn't the smartest play, but I find it works pretty well for me!
So, there you have it! If you build this, let me know how it does for you, I'd love to compare notes!
Run early. Run often. More importantly, never stop running! =)

WESTON-SUPER-MARE TUESDAY 11th JULY 2017
We had such a fabulous day at the beach with YR, 1 and 2. The weather was kind to us and we managed to complete a great quiz at the Sand Sculpture Exhibition, have a donkey ride, play on the beach and have an ice-cream before the rain came in at about 2 o'clock.
It was wonderful for the children to have such space and freedom to play in.They were an absolute joy to be with and it was a pleasure to see them having such fun.
There were a few glum faces when we boarded the coach for home (that was just the adults!) but many said it was their most awesome day ever!
The day was so successful due to the careful planning of the staff. We were very fortunate to be able to take so many adults with us - this undoubtedly helped to make it enjoyable, safe and relaxed for all.
Many thanks to staff:
Mrs Chippendale, Mrs Ainsworth, Mrs Rose, Mrs Newby, Mrs Phillips, Miss Buckle, Mrs Jennings, Mrs Masefield, Mrs Ryan and Mr Lockyear.
And to our fabulous volunteers:
Mrs Hague, Lisa, Miriam, Sue, Linda, Lesley and Megan.
Thank you also to The Friends who, very generously, paid for our entrance fee to the Sand Sculpture Exhibition, donkey ride and ice-cream. This was very much appreciated.
My face hurts from smiling today - another very proud headteacher moment!

Science Week - March 2017
In celebration of British Science Week, on Thursday the whole school took part in a morning of exciting Science activities. Each class completed two investigations before sharing their findings with the rest of the school during assembly. We finished the morning by heading outside for an amazing display led by Mr Chopping (Kye, Tabitha and Quin's dad) which included an erupting volcano and some hands-on fun with some slime!! I was extremely impressed by the children's creativity, logical predictions and fantastic team work. Read on to find out about our investigations and to see pictures of the day.
Balloon Rockets!
After making a balloon straw rocket fire across the classroom along a length of string, Blackbird Class and Barn Owl Class investigated how they could make the rocket travel even faster! Their creative approaches included setting their rocket off from a height, shortening the string, cutting the straw in half and attaching more than one balloon from their rocket. Barn Owl Class then spent time researching the science behind their findings and shared some very interesting facts about forces during our assembly.
What's the fastest way to get a toy out of ice?
Goldfinch Class investigated the fastest way of getting a toy animal out of an ice block. They had some very creative ideas which included rubbing the ice with their hands, using a blanket, using a hairdryer and smashing the ice up with a hammer! They were delighted to discover that the hammer won!
Skittles Fun!
Wren Class, Goldfinch Class and Kingfisher Class had lots of fun making patterns by dropping water onto skittles. They then investigated the fastest way of removing the colour from the skittles. The children had lots of inventive ideas including soaking the skittles in flour or water then sucking up the colour with a pipette, pouring warm water onto the skittles or covering them with milk!
Making Rainbows!
Wren Class made some beautiful rainbows using arched kitchen roll to soak up primary colours. They were extremely patient whilst waiting for their kitchen roll to absorb the different colours and predicted what would happen when the colours reached the top of the arches. Well done to our youngest scientists!
Liquid Layers!
Blackbird Class and Red Kite Class investigated what happened when maple syrup and oil were added to coloured water. After some great predictions about what might happen including the syrup turning green, they were intrigued to find out that each liquid settled in layers due to their different densities. They then chose different objects to drop into their layers and found that some objects sat on top of the oil, some on top of the water and others on top of the syrup! We very impressed with their observations and they provided some fantastic scientific explanations.
Liquid Lava Lamps!
Barn Owl Class made some beautiful lava lamps using their knowledge of oil and water separation.The results were mesmerising!
A special mention must go to our wonderful children in Year 6 who spent the morning helping out with the experiments going on in other year group. Their scientific knowledge was very valuable to the younger children and they were extremely patient and helpful!

Young Voices at the Genting Arena in Birmingham
We had an absolutely fabulous time and the concert in the evening was a truly memorable experience. 31 children from our Choir took part and very much enjoyed having front row seats! We had a brilliant view of all of the performers and especially enjoyed watching the percussionist who was directly in front of us.
We sang, danced, laughed and rocked our socks off!
The behaviour of the children was exceptional. It was a very long day but there were absolutely no issues - apart from a banana that hadn't travelled well!
Thank you to the many parents who made the journey to support us - it was very exciting to spot you in the audience. I love the pictures of the children with telescopes and binoculars!
Miss Hughes was the hero of the day as her superb organisation and attention to detail ensured that everything ran smoothly and the children were able to relax and enjoy the opportunity. Thank you to Nicole Newby and Wendy Walker for accompanying us.

These included the bizarre-looking cytinus, parasitic on pink-flowered cistus species,….
…. and the rare Sarcocapnos eneaphylla, with delicate, clustered white flowers which the Spanish call 'virgin's slippers,….
…. and mauve-flowered Chaenorhinum crassifolium. Both these species grow in fissures in rocks. Along the cliff path to San Pedro yesterday we saw many clumps of white rockrose (helianthemum). Also, here is an example of Convolvulus siculus with tiny blue flowers. It is found never far from the sea and there are lots of it in Las Negras. The ramblas around las Negras our full of colour. Clumps of wild peas in vivid shades of pink and magenta are growing in the dried up river beds. Little pink Silene nicaeensis are everywhere. These lovely purple poppies are unusual. They made an interesting contrast growing amongst the common red poppies. As did these pink poppies.

Giving is often underestimated and wrongly emphasized. The correct estimation of giving can only be realized when we see the big picture. Until then, we will keep emphasizing aspects while leaving out the main substance.
Human beings are capable of giving money, advice, attention, their resources among-st other things. All of the above-mentioned are mere branches supported by a main stem. If the main stem is not firmly in place, these branches wont be fully effective.
The parameters used in measuring a 'good gift' are usually the size, quantity, quality and perhaps the status/condition of the giver. Many will not appreciate a N10,000 donation from a 'big man' because we all believe with his status, he should do better. In the same vein, when your retired grandma hands you the same amount, you feel awed and really grateful.
I have discovered that money is not the ultimate gift although this seems to be the popular opinion. Yeah yeah, 'money answereth all things' I know, but I still insist it is not the ultimate gift.
The ultimate gift is you, yes you. Give yourself to God, your family, a worthy cause etc. and you will experience the true satisfaction and inner peace that comes with giving. Even God Himself, gave the ultimate gift after giving us the earth with all it's resources. For God so loved the world that He gave Himself (well, that is my interpretation of "His only begotten Son").
Give yourself to your spouse, not just your money, sex and attention. The greatest gift from a rich dad to his son is not money but the 'rich dad'. Giving yourself entails giving the total package; it is demanding yet fulfilling.
Give the ultimate gift, give yourself.

Dr. Jonathan Wells, a molecular biologist who has two Ph.D.s and who is not a Christian, examines evolutionists top ten evidences for evolution (e.g., the peppered moth, Haeckel's embryo drawings, and the Miller-Urey experiment) and demonstrates how all of them are misrepresented and misused to support Darwin's theory of naturalism. Phillip Johnson, a former professor of law at the University of California at Berkeley says, "This is one of the most important books ever written about the evolution controversy. It shows how devotion to the ideology of Darwinism has led to textbooks which are full of misinformation." Also endorsed by Michael Behe and William Dembski.
Dr. Wells is a Senior Fellow at Discovery Institute's Center for the Renewal of Science and Culture and has a Ph.D. in Molecular and Cell Biology from the University of California at Berkeley.

Eternal Life
Eternal life...paradise...heaven...life after death...nirvana...all religions describe their view of the great mystery. But what does the Bible say? Is heaven a place of reward or a state of perfection?
Paul (little one), a servant (dedicated to humble service) of God, and an apostle (one sent out) of Jesus Christ, according to (in regard to) the faith of God's elect, and the acknowledging of the truth which is after (in regard to) godliness (adoration and obedience toward God) in hope of eternal life, which God, that cannot lie, promised before the world began; (Titus 1:1-2)
Look at the little word, "in". In the Greek it is a preposition meaning superimposition, over, upon, etc. It is properly translated as "on", showing that our faith and knowledge rest upon the promise of eternal life.
In the same letter to Titus, Paul mentions hope, connecting the hope of eternal life with the glorious appearing of Christ.
For the grace of God that bringeth salvation hath appeared to all men, teaching us that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we should live soberly, righteously, and godly, in this present world; looking for that blessed hope, and the glorious appearing of the great God and our Saviour Jesus Christ...(Titus 2:11-13)
Our future hope is the appearing of Jesus Christ, bringing eternal life. Our confident expectation of eternal life is based on our relationship to Christ...he shares his life with us (inheritance).
That being justified by his grace, we should be made heirs according to the hope of eternal life.(Titus 3:7)
And for this cause he is the mediator of the new testament, that by means of death, for the redemption of the transgressions that were under the first testament, they which are called might receive the promise of eternal inheritance.(Hebrews 9:15)
Jesus described eternal life as simply "life".
And, behold, one came and said unto him, Good Master, what good thing shall I do, that I may have eternal life? And he said unto him, Why callest thou me good? there is none good but one, that is, God: but if thou wilt enter into life, keep the commandments.(Matthew 19:16-17)
There are only two eternal destinies: life or punishment.
And these shall go away into everlasting punishment: but the righteous into life eternal.(Matthew 25:46)
For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.(John 3:16)
He that believeth on the Son hath everlasting life: and he that believeth not the Son shall not see life; but the wrath of God abideth on him.(John 3:36)
Eternal life, heaven, and the kingdom of God all describe the afterlife. (See Mark 10:17-30)
Jesus said that He was the source of eternal life.
Search the scriptures; for in them ye think ye have eternal life: and they are they which testify of me. (John 5:40) And ye will not come to me, that ye might have life.(John 5:39)
For the life was manifested, and we have seen it, and bear witness, and shew unto you that eternal life, which was with the Father, and was manifested unto us...(1 John 1:2)
And this is the record, that God hath given to us eternal life, and this life is in his Son. He that hath the Son hath life; and he that hath not the Son of God hath not life. These things have I written unto you that believe on the name of the Son of God; that ye may know that ye have eternal life, and that ye may believe on the name of the Son of God. (1 John 5:11-13)
For as the Father hath life in himself; so hath he given to the Son to have life in himself...(John 5:26)
Eternal life is the same as eternal salvation (rescue) or redemption (ransomed).
And being made perfect, he became the author of eternal salvation unto all them that obey him;(Hebrews 5:9)
Eternal life is the result of God's judgement (Greek, "krima", decision):
Of the doctrine of baptisms, and of laying on of hands, and of resurrection of the dead, and of eternal judgment.(Hebrews 6:2)
Eternal life is glorious, a state of perfectlon, stability, and strength, surrounded by the lordship of Christ.
But the God of all grace, who hath called us unto his eternal glory (very apparent) by Christ Jesus, after that ye have suffered a while, make you perfect (thoroughly complete), stablish (set fast, secure), strengthen, settle (set on a firm foundation) you. To him be glory and dominion (power) for ever and ever. Amen.(1 Peter 5:10-11)

I like to share this story I have heard somewhere along and the way. It is about a tribe of first peoples who wondered where Christopher Columbus and his group came from when they were first seen. The Europeans tried to explain about the ships on which they had sailed. The local residents hadn't ever seen anything like that before. They did not have a frame of reference for such a way of traveling. So, the locals only saw the water where the ships were moored, not the ships themselves. For a good amount of time, the holy man in the tribe stood on the shore and stared out upon the water. Eventually, in his pondering, he noticed strange ripples in the water. One day he was able to see the ships that cause the ripples. Then the holy man was able to share with the rest of his people in a way that helped them to see the ships too.
Welcome to the first week of Lent. In our blog posts we are pondering the restoration of our spiritual selves. Instead of looking for ships, in Lent we look to our relationship with God and with one another in Christ. There are times when we look and do not have a sense of God's presence. We may feel alone or disconnected from community in Christ.
Christopher Martin, in his book The Restoration Project asks the question, "Are you there God?" Linda Mercandante, in her conversations with people who self-identify as "spiritual but not religious" shares about people believing in God as transcendent but not imminent—God out there, but not nearby. Mercandante has written the book Belief without Borders. Both Martin and Mercandante are akin, I think to the holy man pondering what there was to be seen upon the waters.
So how do you watch for God? Are you wired in a way similar to the holy man from the story, one who watches and ponders? Or, is there someone to whom or a resource to which to turn hoping for help in seeing?
Watching for God, or for insights or for guidance sometimes works for me in this way. Through people, the news, or "just because" I'll feel a lack, or long for something specific. Sometimes I stare. This can be prayerful staring. Focusing my eyes can free up other parts of my thought/spirit for discovery. I often stare from the green chair near my books. Sometimes I dream. Practically speaking, there are day-to-day responsibilities we tend to, yet our subconscious is still at work, and so ideas and insights can show up in sleep. Also, I just ask, "what about," or "what do you think?" I express out loud what I wonder about to the universe, to God, or to a trusted person. Working a puzzle, like sudoku, crossword or jigsaw can provide a re-boot for otherwise stalled processes inside. I walk. I straighten the kitchen counter. I also take moments and even days to watch purposefully for what God is doing. Bidden or unbidden, goes the old wisdom, God is near. So too, watched for and noticed or not, God is active around us.
Pondering faith and life is set forth for us in the worship and life of our churches. At St. Paul Lutheran and Christ Episcopal churches we are providing different kinds of interaction for spiritual pondering and restoration. These blog conversations give a dimension to our watching for God. Conversations in person or on page speak to our spirits, stir utterance, create ripples that may eventually point to something we do not yet see. I pray many blessings on your watching, and trust the mysteries of faith to be at work in us.
(The Rev. Colleen Kamke-Nieman)

When I saw this one appear on the Bodyline site, I HAD to have it. I've been dreaming about a navy OP for a long time, and this one is perfect for some classical Lolita coordinates. The textiles is thick and smooth and the zipper in the back goes all the way up on the back. I love the collar and small details is just perfect since they don't take all the etention. The Only drawback with this OP was that the arms were VERY tight! So I have to do something with the stitching :)
Look how beautiful the print is! I'm in love!
So this was my order, and I'm really happy about it. But now I really need to save money... Damn Bodyline becoming so expensive! But now I finally got some lovely winter pieces so just let it come!

Scientific & Theoretical KnowledgePhysical education teacher candidates know and apply discipline-specific scientific and theoretical concepts critical to the development of physically educated individuals.
Artifact: Lab 201
Element: 1.3: Describe and apply motor development theory and principles related to skillful movement, physical activity, and fitness.
Date: Fall 2010.
Reflection: During this past semester I spent time at St. Mary's Elementary School. While I was there I was able to add on my experience with kids, play games with them and observe how their motor development could grow over time. The kids ages were from Pre K to 6th grade. While I was observing the kids and their motor development I had to take into consideration the kids age, gender and maturity. In lab 3 we observed leap, horizontal jump and slide.

This time of year for an NFL franchise, no news is usually good news. So the Cowboys creating a few headlines today is not something Dallas fans want to hear. While most of today's news was negative there was a bit of positive as well.
Lets recap.
Damien Wilson Arrested
Ugh. Seriously? Damien Wilson was a candidate to see significant playing time this season, but his arrest last night puts everything into question now.
NFL Network's Ian Rapoport tweeted that Wilson was charged with two counts of aggravated assault. Their full story can be found here.
Facts are still being gathered about what exactly happened last night, but we do know the incident occurred at Toyota Stadium in Frisco, Texas, at a fireworks show. Various Twitter outlets describe the scene as Wilson bumping a female with his truck, as she was tying to save a parking spot. The NFL Network report also states that Wilson pointed a rifle at someone, causing them to "be in fear for their life".
It remains to be seen what type of punishment Wilson will incur, but whether it be from law enforcement, the NFL, or the Cowboys themselves, it is hard to believe he will escape this unscathed. Perhaps this incident motivates Dallas to kick the tires again on someone like Daryl Washington.
Dak Prescott Accused of Using Autopen
This one hit close to home, as I am an avid sports card and memorabilia collector. It seems as though Dak Prescott may have used an autopen or some sort of machine to sign his Panini Prizm football cards. ESPN's Darren Rovell first broke the story.
Beckett, the premier company for sports card grading, pointed out the inconsistencies in Prescott's signature to Panini, causing them to recall the autographs in their 2017 Prizm Football product. All other Prescott autographed cards and items appear not to be affected however.
Jerry Jones Selects His HOF Presenter
Not all of the day's news was bad, as owner Jerry Jones finally named who will be presenting him at his Hall of Fame induction this August. While names like Stephen Jones, Troy Aikman or even Jimmy Johnson have been rumored to get the nod, none were chosen. Instead Mr. Jones chose his lovely wife Gene to have the honor.
And they say chivalry is dead.

A recipe
Newsflash for all you non-singles. Cooking for one is ridiculous. Especially when you hate leftovers. The cost margins for buying materials to eat-in are nearly the same as eating out. Factor in the time to shop, cook, and clean-up and forget-about-it-I'm-grabbing-something-out-again. That or eating frosted mini-wheats.
But there's one thing I make with some regularity and freeze in individual serving bags to be thawed and devoured in minutes because it's so delicious. My mom got this recipe from her nutritionist a few years ago and it's become a Wms. family staple. Low in calories, high in fiber, it's a hearty staple you should give a try. Basically, you throw it in a pot. WHICH IS PERFECT FOR ME.
Taco SoupIf you can't find the beans listed above, you really can mix and match with any kind of bean found at the grocery store (pink, black, white, etc.). I've served the soup before with chips and fresh guac/salsa, quesadillas, and any other sort of mini Mexican spread. It's always a hit.
Brown together:
1 lbs ground beef1 med onions; chopped
Then add:1 can chili beans1 can kidney beans (drain)1 cans pinto beans1 cans diced tomatoes with garlic or onions8 oz tomato sauce1 can corn1 can diced chilies (little cans)2 cups water1 pkg taco seasoning1 pkg ranch dressing mixSimmer 20 minutes
Can add more water if needed
Garnish with sour cream, cheese, scallions, chips, etc.
Phew. Aren't you glad I don't write a full-time cooking blog? I'm pretty worthless. You know who puts together gorgeous cooking blogs I always read but never try? Alicia at Cookie Sheets and Cake Pans and Erica over at Erica's Pantry.
Use them for inspiration. I'm just here to keep the economy in motion.

The All Blacks have added uncapped scrum-half Augustine Pulu to their squad for next week's Bledisloe Cup Test against Australia.
The All Blacks have added uncapped Counties scrum-half Augustine Pulu to their squad for next weekend's Bledisloe Cup Test against Australia as a replacement for Tawera Kerr-Barlow.
The 24-year-old received the call-up following confirmation earlier this week that Kerr-Barlow will be out for up to nine months after tearing a knee ligament in New Zealand's 27-25 loss to South Africa last Saturday.
Utility back Ben Smith has been rested ahead of the All Blacks trip to the United States and Europe next month.
Coach Steve Hansen is excited about the prospect of working with Pulu.
"The selectors have been watching Augustine for a while, he is an exciting young player and we think the next obvious choice at half-back," said Hansen.
"We'd like to congratulate him on his selection and we're looking forward to working with him."
Pulu, who plays Super Rugby for the Hamilton-based Chiefs, is likely to be third choice behind TJ Perenara and Aaron Smith for the scrum-half role in the Test against Australia in Brisbane on October 18.
The Test is the third and final fixture of the Bledisloe Cup series, although New Zealand have already retained the trophy after drawing the first match 12-12 then smashing the Wallabies 51-20 in the second.
New Zealand squad:
Forwards: Dane Coles, Nathan Harris, Keven Mealamu, Wyatt Crockett, Charlie Faumuina, Ben Franks, Owen Franks, Joe Moody, Brodie Retallick, Jeremy Thrush, Patrick Tuipulotu, Sam Whitelock, Sam Cane, Jerome Kaino, Steven Luatua, Richie McCaw, Liam Messam, Kieran Read.
Backs: TJ Perenara, Augustine Pulu, Aaron Smith, Aaron Cruden, Beauden Barrett, Colin Slade, Ryan Crotty, Conrad Smith, Malakai Fekitoa, Israel Dagg, Cory Jane, Charles Piutau, Julian Savea.

"Hawaii Cookbook and Backyard Luau" - Steamed Pork Patties
Date I made this recipe: August 23, 2009
Hawaii Cookbook and Backyard Luau – The First Completely New Hawaiian Cookbook in 25 Years by Elizabeth Ahn Toupin, Introduction by James A. Michener
Published by: Silvermine Publishers, Inc.
© 1964, 1967
Recipe: Steamed Pork Patties
Well folks, on the 21st of August, Hawaii celebrated 50 years of statehood. Hard to believe that it hasn't always been a state but that doesn't mean it wasn't a popular tourist attraction even back then.
After exploring several possibilities, I decided on Steamed Pork Patties. These are really meant to be an appetizer but we accompanied them by a salad and all was fine…well, almost.
These turned out to be (to my palate) pretty darned salty. I tasted the sherry and the salt and little else. So my advice is to go with the ½ tablespoon of soy sauce (and I even used low-sodium!) and cut the additional teaspoon called for in the recipe and see how that works. (I also nixed the monosodium glutamate—does anyone even use that anymore?).
The other problem I initially had was that 1 tablespoon of cornstarch and ½ egg are not enough to bind the patties and so I kept adding cornstarch (approximately 3 tablespoons total) until it looked like the mixture would hang together a little bit better and then I stuck the bowl in the freezer for 10 minutes to seal the deal.
Finally, I would definitely serve with a sweet-sour sauce (or some kind of sauce) to add a little zip to the dish.
But other than all that, the dish was easy to make and I would probably do it again, sans the salt.
As to the introduction written by James A. Michener, those of my generation will know him as the author of the book, Hawaii, as well as several other books chronicling the evolution of Hawaii (and Africa – The Covenant - and outer space – titled, go figure, Space - and….). Michener leaves no detail behind and honest to God started one book by talking about a speck of dust that eventually turned into civilization. At any rate, Michener's book, Hawaii, was made into a movie by the same name and from what I understand it.was.horrible. But if you want to really understand a particular culture, Michener's your guy.
Happy Birthday, Hawaii! Aloha!
Steamed Pork Patties – Serves 6(May be prepared ahead)
1/3 pound fresh shrimp, finely chopped
½ pound pork, ground
1 tablespoon cornstarch (you'll probably need more)
1 tablespoon sherry
½ tablespoon soy sauce
1 teaspoon salt (I'd advise leaving this out)
½ teaspoon monosodium glutamate
½ egg, beaten (to make this easier on myself, I put one egg in a measuring cup, whisked it to blend and then poured half of it into the meat mixture).
Combined all the ingredients. Shape into 1 ½ inch rounds, ½ inch thick. Place in a serving dish. Set dish on a bowl and place in pot over 1 inch of hot water. Cover and steam for 20 minutes.
Serve with apricot hors d'oeuvre or spicy or sweet-sour sauce.
To prepare ahead: Follow instructions for making and steaming pork patties. Cool and refrigerate. Remove fat. Reheat by steaming for 5-10 minutes.

"The French Chef Cookbook" by Julia Child - Salad Nicoise
Date I made this recipe: August 16, 2009
The French Chef Cookbook by Julia Child, Drawings and Photographs by Paul Child
Published by: Alfred A. Knopf
© 1961 (1963, 1964, 1965, 1966, 1968)
Recipe: Salad Nicoise – p. 17 (plus Sauce Vinaigrette – p. 5 and French Potato Salad – p. 16)
Note: these recipes are all from Julia Child's TV show, The French Chef
I don't know about you, but I'm about ready to start a petition to rename August "Julia Child month" because our beloved Julia is all over the airwaves and in the press.
On August 7th, the movie Julie and Julia, based upon two books – My Life in France by Julia Child and Julie and Julia by Julie Powell - was released and though I haven't seen it yet, I've lost track of the number of friends telling me "You would love it."
Then on August 15th those of us in the know celebrated what would have been Julia's 97th birthday (she died on August 13, just two days shy of her 92nd birthday).
So this dish is a birthday homage to the great lady who turned the culinary world on its ear. And I have to tell you that as was Julia's style, making this seemingly simple salad turned out to be a rather long series of steps to get to the goal line.
Before I get into the recipe, I have to recount (again) the tale of purchasing Mastering the Art of French Cooking, Julia's culinary contribution to the world. It goes like this: There I was, minding my own business, happily shopping for cookbooks at Joan Hendricks bookstore in New York, when I spied a couple of copies of Mastering the Art of French Cooking. Believe it or don't, up until then, I had trouble finding a copy. There were two books on the shelf, one that was close to being a first edition and reasonably priced and another that was a second printing (and therefore less desirable to collectors like me). The second-printing book was priced at $200 (and yes, that was for one book) and that's because it was signed by both Julia and Paul Child.
So I hemmed and hawed about what to do—buy the stack of books in my hand that probably totaled $200 or go for what's behind the curtain and plop all my money down for this one, solitary book? Joan was clearly cheering for me to buy the $200 book but I just couldn't justify spending that much money on one book when I had others that sounded more interesting (I mean, I ask you—would you have passed up Jack Knife Cookery? I didn't think so.)
And so I walked away from the $200 book. And Julia Child passed away two weeks later. #$%@!!!!! You've gotta know that the book probably sold for double that amount but so it goes. I still think I made the right decision just as I'm sure Joan made sure that book went to a good home. As for me, I walked away with a Julia Child book, just not the one that cost me a quarter of my mortgage and that made me happy.
So to the recipe -- it was okay but not great and that was a disappointment. Julia used way (and I mean way) more vinaigrette than I was comfortable with, such that the potato salad and overall salad was just swimming in oil. So my biggest advice to those who want to recreate this recipe is to start small – I'm talking tablespoon by tablespoon – until you get the result you want. When I made the potato salad, there was so much oil in it from the vinaigrette that I had to use a slotted spoon to transfer the salad to another bowl and then back again. And then she called for vinaigrette on the lettuce…and then again once the dish was made. If you ask me, too much of a good thing is still too much.
Plan on this recipe taking just a bit to pull together because you must cook the potatoes and the beans and then slice and dice and whisk and…well, you'll be busy. It took considerably less time than when I made her Boeuf Bourgignon (we're talking hours and hours of work for that one) but you're still in the kitchen for quite some time.
Sauce Vinaigrette – for about ½ cup, enough for salad for 6 (Ann's Note: it made just shy of a ½ cup. You will need ½ cup alone for the potato salad and then another ¾ to 1 cup for the salad itself (although as I said, this is overkill).
1 to 2 T excellent wine vinegar or a combination of vinegar and lemon juice
1/8 tsp salt
¼ tsp dry mustard
6 to 8 T best-quality olive oil, salad oil or a combination of both
Big pinch of freshly ground pepper
Optional: ½ T minced shallots or scallions and/or ¼ tsp dried herbs, such as tarragon or basil
Either beat the vinegar, salt and mustard in a bowl until dissolved, then beat in the oil and season with the pepper and herbs, or place all ingredients in a screw-top jar and shake vigorously for 30 seconds to blend thoroughly. Taste carefully for seasoning.
Pommes de Terre a L'Huile (French Potato Salad) – for about 6 cups
Note: again, I would season as I went along. 2 T chicken bouillon is a lot of bouillon. The dish wasn't salty but it sure could have been. I also used less of the shallots and parsley than called for as 2 (and 3) tablespoons seemed like way too much. You'd be wise to use more than 2 lbs of potatoes.
8 to 10 medium "boiling" potatoes (about 2 lbs)
2 Tb dry white wine or dry white vermouth
2 T chicken bouillon
½ cup of the vinaigrette
2 T minced shallots or scallions
3 T minced parsley
Boil or steam the potatoes in their jackets until just tender. Peel and slice while still warm. Toss gently in the mixing bowl with the wine and bouillon, and after several minutes, toss again. When liquid has been absorbed by the potatoes, toss with the vinaigrette, shallots or scallions and parsley.
Salad Nicoise for 6 to 8 people
3 cups previously cooked green beans in a bowl
3 quartered tomatoes in a bowl
¾ to 1 cup vinaigrette (I'm telling you, just say "no!")
1 head Boston lettuce, separated, washed and dried
3 cups cold French potato salad
½ cup pitted black olives, preferably the dry Mediterranean type
3 hard-boiled eggs, cold, peeled and quartered
12 canned anchovy fillets, drained, either flat or rolled with capers
About 1 cup (8 ounces) canned tuna, drained
Just before serving, season beans and tomatoes with several spoonfuls of the dressing. Toss the lettuce leaves in the salad bowl with ¼ cup of the vinaigrette and places leaves about bowl. (Again with the vinaigrette!) Arrange potatoes in bottom of bowl, decorate with the beans and tomatoes, interspersing them with a design of tuna, olives, eggs and anchovies. Pour remaining dressing over salad (!!!!), sprinkle with herbs, and serve.
Note: I've had Salad Nicoise several times when in France and never did I see this much dressing but if you cut back, this is one rockin' summer salad!

"Sunset Potluck Cookbook" - Dark Chocolate Chewy Brownies
Date I made this recipe: August 1, 2009
Sunset Potluck Cookbook – Pride & Joy Recipes You Can Take To The Party by the editors of Sunset Magazine
Published by: Lane Publishing Co.
Recipe: Dark Chocolate Chewy Brownies - p. 90
I am told these brownies were really good. The reason I say "I was told" is because allergy season has kicked it (it is August, you know) and I really can't taste much of anything. Phooey. I hate this time of year.
It's been bad enough that the weather has been sub-par as far as summer goes (cold, cold, clouds, rain, cold, clouds, rain) but to have the pollen come out and slap you upside the head until the first hard frost comes is really too much to bear. All I can say is that the pharmaceutical companies are having at happy dance at my expense.
Anyway…today was the day that Arlene hosted the Ladies' Lunch and I really wanted to make up for what I considered to be my lousy entry when Vicki hosted the group. We don't always meet at each other's home but Arlene and her husband had just moved to a new apartment and last year Vicki wanted to show off her old home (she has since moved) and so there it is. Of course, I'll be hosting the next one in October and after that I say it's time to make reservations instead of recipes.
Even though I pulled this cookbook off the shelf some time ago, I was still undecided on what to make right up until liftoff. In the running was an Amaretto Cheesecake but it just took too long to make so brownies it was!
This is one ridiculously simple recipe but very chewy and moist and chocolaty…or so I'm told.
Dark Chocolate Chewy Brownies – makes 12-18 servings
1 cup (1/2 lb – or two sticks) butter or margarine, cut into chunks
6 ounces unsweetened chocolate
2 2/3 cups sugar
4 eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 cup slivered almonds or chopped walnuts
Combine butter and chocolate into a 3-4 to 4-quart pan and place over low heat. When ingredients begin to soften, stir until blended; remove from heat. Add sugar, eggs, and vanilla; beat with an electric mixer until smooth. Blend in flour. Spread in a greased 9- by 13-inch baking pan; sprinkle with nuts.
Bake in a 350 oven just until edges feel firm and center springs back when gently pressed (25 to 30 minutes). Let cool in pan on a wire rack. Cut into bars. (Note: when I say I waited until nearly liftoff, I meant it: These bars were pretty darned warm when I cut into them to take them to Arlene's. The pan wasn't necessarily pretty but the taste was great…or so I'm told).

Reign of Winter
Baba Yaga
Queen of Witches
The Queen of Witches, Baba Yaga (pronounced BAH-ba YAH-guh)invaded Golarion from another world in 3313 AR, making war on the Lands of the Linnorm Kings. Within 23 days the Winter War was over and she had established her realm of Irrisen.
The winter of 3312 AR was terribly bitter, even by the incredibly harsh standards of northern Avistan: warriors who left their swords outside overnight would find that the cold had shattered them by the next morning. As if the cold wasn't strange enough, the northern lights were so bright and sustained that they were mistaken for daylight. These events would later be seen as omens of the terror that was to come.
The following year the witch-queen Baba Yaga invaded the Linnorm Kingdom of Raemerrund and the Djurstor Confederacy from over the Winterwall Glacier, bringing with her an army of ice trolls, cold fey, frost giant, white dragons, and other evil creatures. King Jarguut and the thanes of the Confederacy were too divided and weakened to offer any serious resistance, and the Winter War ended in the defeat of the Ulfen forces in only 23 days.
Once the Ulfen armies had been defeated, Baba Yaga installed her eldest daughter Jadwiga as queen of the new nation of Irrisen, and divided it into five provinces: Bleakmarch, Feyfrost, Hoarwood, Thronehold, and Wintercrux. After this was accomplished, however, the Witch Queen seemed to lose interest in Irrisen, and departed Golarion abruptly.
After founding Irrisen, Baba Yaga was not heard from for nearly a century. In 3412 AR, the Three Riders of Baba Yaga appeared in Irrisen. These strange, fey horsemen road about the countryside, punishing those who had been unfaithful to the Witch Queen, and (rarely) rewarding those who had stayed true to her, but offered little justification for any of their actions. The following year, Baba Yaga herself returned to Golarion and removed the Queen from the throne, placing her younger daughter Morgannan in charge. She left again shortly thereafter, taking along her eldest daughter Jadwiga along with the first generation of her descendants. This process was to reoccur every 100 years like clockwork, and continues to this day.
Not every daughter of Baba Yaga has quietly acquiesced to her mother's demand to give up the throne of Irrisen, and a few have even openly rebelled against the Witch Queen. Although the first three queens of Irrisen (Jadwiga, Morgannan, and Urvalane) are said to have abdicated with little fighting, Urvalane's successor, Pjallarane, did not go quietly. She and her children (the Jadwiga Pjallarane) launched an open rebellion against their progenitor in 3713 AR, but were ruthlessly put down by Baba Yaga in a single day in a conflict known as the 24-Hour War. A century later, Queen Aelena abdicated without the slightest hesitation, most-likely remembering her sister's futile struggle against their mother.
These relatively quiet successions continued through the reigns of Queens Harcatha, Sascha, and Karina, but came to an end with the Witchwar of 4213 AR. During this conflict, Queen Tashanna used the power of the Torc of Kostchtchie to summon the demon lord Kostchtchie and force him to assist her in fending off the Witch Queen. Despite this assistance, Tashanna and her followers were quickly defeated by Baba Yaga. Tashanna and the first generation of her offspring were dragged off to a place beyond Golarion, while her former loyalists were executed, and their bodies hidden in the necropolis known as the Veil of Frozen Tears.
After this unpleasantness, the next queen of Irrisen, Velikas renounced her throne quietly in 4413 AR, but trouble was once again stirred up by her successor, Queen Kseniya. When Baba Yaga came in 4413 AR, Kseniya attempted to take her life. Many of her children tried to do the same, but were ultimately prevented by the Witch Queen, who took them all with her and installed Betyrina as the new monarch of Irrisen.
Since Velikas' futile gesture of resistance, the Queens of Irrisen have once again given up their thrones quietly. It remains to be seen which of her sisters' footsteps the current Queen Elvanna will follow in when Baba Yaga returns this year.
Baba Yaga appears as an ancient human crone, often seen carrying her witch's broom and a large basked filled with sundry items on her back.
Even though Baba Yaga takes the first generation of her daughter's offspring with her when she returns to Golarion every century (see History above), the second generation and beyond remain on this world and are known as the Jadwiga. These men and women appear human in all respects and make up the ruling class of that northern land.
Baba Yaga earned the eternal hatred of Kostchtchie after perverting his wish for immortality by forcing him to become a demon lord.
The Dancing Hut of Baba Yaga
The Dancing Hut of Baba Yaga is a major artifact of Baba Yaga's, granting her immense ability to travel within the Material Plane and into the Great Beyond.

12 Christmas Wines by The VineYard
A selection of wines for the festive season suggested by The Vineyard Hotel in Berkshire, the UK's wine hotel, home to an award winning restaurant, 30,000 bottles of wine and a boutique spa. www.the-vineyard.co.uk
Schramsberg Blanc de Blancs, Napa Valley, 2010:
Schramsberg estate is owned by J. Davies Estate and was established back in 1862, it was one of the pioneering vineyards to produce a sparkling wine using the second fermentation in the bottle, such as Champagne. Blanc de Blancs means white from white and is made from Chardonnay grape. The wine shows a creamy foam and delicate bubbles, and is great to serve as an aperitif during the festive season. The nose has notes of ripe stone fruit, toast, fresh almond and citrus, the palate is creamy with a fresh finish.
Schramsberg Blanc de Blancs gained international recognition in 1972 when President Nixon served the wine at the "Toast to Peace" in Beijing, China.
Nyetimber, Classic Cuvée, Brut, West Sussex, 2009:
Since its first vintage in 1992, Nyetimber has become one of the leading and most influential English producers of sparkling wines. This classic Champagne blend of Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier has very fine and delicate bubbles. The nose brings tones of white flowers, lemon zest and apricot and the palate shows a toasty nuance with a hint of tropical fruits. This wine would be a great accompaniment for fresh oysters.
If you like richer wines, I heavily suggest trying the Demi-Sec.
Taittinger, Prestige Rosé, Brut, Champagne, NV:
Taittinger is a fairly recent house which, since 1932, has managed to take its place among the most prestigious estates. The high proportion of Chardonnay gives a lively acidity to this Champagne and brings elegance and delicacy. The Pinot Noir added to the blend gives it its lovely salmon orange colour.
The aromas are reminiscent of ripe strawberry, raspberry, fresh red cherry with a touch of yellow peach. The palate is full bodied, but remains very delicate and feminine. This wine can be enjoyed as an aperitif or throughout a meal. It would match gracefully with a baked fillet of salmon with cranberries and a touch of chilli.
Tio Pepe, Palomino Fino, Jerez, Spain, NV:
Unfortunately, sherry is not used enough in gastronomy, however it is an incredible style of wine because of its diversity and versatility with food. This light and dry Sherry made from Palomino grape is perfect for an aperitif due to its citrus aromas bringing a lively freshness. Its hint of nuttiness makes it well suited for veloutés and soups. Also, a richer style such as an Oloroso or a sweet Pedro Ximenez would work very well with cheese or a Christmas pudding.
Egon Müller, Riesling, Scharzhof, Mosel, Germany, 2009:
A great favourite, Egon Müller is often seen as being one of Germany's finest winemakers. He is the fourth generation and officially took over in 1991,and since then his wines have always been highly acclaimed. This fresh Riesling has a great acidity giving the wine a good ageing potential. It shows aromas of lemon and lime peel, fresh green apple on the nose. The palate has an oily texture with a very good minerality and develops more tropical fruit such as ripe pineapple and mango. This wine will work particularly well with some pan fried scallops, mango and lemon dressing.
Peter Michael Winery, L'Après Midi, Knights Valley, 2013:
Sir Peter Michael long had a great interest for wine. He established his winery in Sonoma in 1982 and released his first wine in 1987.
L'Après Midi, the French for "the afternoon", is a Sauvignon Blanc based wine blended with a touch of Sémillon, which was first produced in 1991. It undergoes its fermentation in oak barrels bringing to the wine a hint of smokiness and a rich texture. The wine develops aromas of ripe tropical fruit such as passion fruit and fresh mango with a touch of pink grapefruit. The palate has a lovely minerality, very well balanced with the oak character. This wine is very well suited for a poached salmon with a Hollandaise sauce
Mount Difficulty Pinot Noir Estate, Central Otago, New Zealand, 2010:
A fantastic example of Pinot Noir! This southern New Zealand wine shows a great concentration as well as lots of fruit. The estate was established in 1992 and encompasses some of the oldest vineyards in Central Otago. The style of this wine is richer than those from the Northern Island. The wine shows ripe dark cherry, cooked strawberry and black pepper. This juicy red would work greatly with some pan fried monkfish wrapped in pancetta and chicken jus.
Langhe, Poderi Colla, Bricco del Drago, Piedmont, Italy, 2008:
A wine made from a local grape called Nebbiolo is a very delicate and light coloured red wine. The Langhe is a very juicy wine full of plums, red cherry as well as a touch of violet petals. The palate is delicate and perfumed with soft and silky tannins. It shows more dark fruits such as blackcurrant and blackberry with a touch of pepper and leather. This wine is a more wintery wine and goes well with game such as a fillet of venison or cheese.
Rioja Gran Reserva, Rioja Alta, 904, Rioja, Spain, 2004:
A classic wine mainly made from Tempranillo, one of the main grape varieties from Rioja. This estate dates back to 1890 and produces a traditional style of wine. The 2004 vintage shows a great balance, some well integrated tannins and some spicy notes such as dark chocolate, coffee bean and pepper. The nose shows a delicate touch of rose and plums as well as some dry fruit like dry fig and nuts. This powerful wine would be a good match with roast turkey and cranberry.
Peter Michael Winery, Les Pavots, Knights Valley, CA, 2011:
The flagship wine from the Peter Michael Winery, Les Pavots is a Cabernet Sauvignon led wine blended with some Merlot, Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot. The newly released vintage is already showing incredibly well. It has a fantastic concentration and some velvety tannins. The nose brings some cooked dark fruits such as blackberry and cassis as well as notes of dark chocolate, prune and violet. On the palate, it has a hint of smoke and some cinnamon and vanilla character. This wine shows a great balance and is aiming to age superbly well. This wine can be enjoyed with stronger flavoured dishes such as a wild boar stew.
Warre's Vintage Port, Douro Valley, Portugal, 2003:
What better match than cheese and Port? I think that Port can be compared to Champagne in the fact that it is a very personal taste and, such as some would prefer Taittinger to Bollinger, it is down to your personal taste. Due to its regulation, a vintage Port will always show a great quality as it would be only produced during the best years. This old vintage 2003 vintage is showing very well but needs time to open and it would therefore be better to open the bottle in advance. The style would be rich, plummy and spicy and would age wonderfully. As a great investment, 2011 was a fantastic one!
Tokaji, Disznoko 5 Puttonyos, Tokaj, Hungary, 2007:
Since 1992, Disznoko has been part of Axa Millesime. This sweet wine is made in a very traditional way. It is produced from a local grape called Furmint. This great pudding wine develops aromas of cooked tropical fruit such as pineapple and mango as well as some acacia honey, and has a great acidity. The balance is great and the wine shows an amazing balance. This is a fantastic wine to have with Christmas pudding or a trifle.

Okay, it's kind of late in the day to do a Hump Day Potpourri post.
But it's been one of those days. Early this morning, I was shouting out about an upcoming release I'm excited about: Jodi Picoult's upcoming book called The Storyteller.
Coming on or about 2/26/13, it promises to deliver the best ingredients of a book by this author:
Sage Singer becomes friends with an old man who's particularly beloved in her community after they strike up a conversation at the bakery where she works. Josef Weber is everyone's favorite retired teacher and Little League coach. One day he asks Sage for a favor: to kill him. Shocked, Sage refuses…but then he tells her he deserves to die.What do you do when evil lives next door? Can someone who's committed a truly heinous act ever redeem themselves with good behavior? Should you offer forgiveness to someone if you aren't the party who was wronged? And most of all—if Sage even considers his request—is it murder, or justice?
Then my day continued, with the kinds of chores that I detest: scrubbing floors and general cleaning.
Next I finished reading Bonnie, by Iris Johansen: click for review.
I went for a few drinks at the bar around the corner, where my daughter works. And came home to start reading a book that wasn't on my list for the week.
Midwives, by Chris Bohjalian. An Oprah Book Club pick that I missed when it first came out.
And now I'm frustrated, because Word Press is not letting me put the images in the correct place in this post!
I'm quitting!
Hope your day is going better than mine….Usually, it's Blogger that messes with my images! Do you have days like this?

Will I lose my vehicle?
If you have a loan secured by your vehicle and are up-to-date on your payments, your bank and the court may allow you to reaffirm the original contract on the vehicle. If you are behind on payments you will need to get them up-to-date or possibly enter into a Chapter 13 bankruptcy to cure any defaults.

At a recent event in Florida, Nancy Pelosi had 20 taxpayer-funded guards and 18 guests. To her credit, I'm surprised she drew that many. From Foxnews.com:
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi reportedly had more security guards than guests at a recent Florida fundraiser. The Palm Beach Post writes Pelosi had 12 guards, mostly Capitol police, plus four Palm Beach officers, two sheriff's deputies and two police boats, adding up to at least 20 in her security detail. There were 18 guests.
California Republican congressional candidate Dana Walsh is asking that Pelosi or the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee repay taxpayers for the expense. Pelosi's office told us the numbers in the newspaper story are not true, but would not comment directly on security arrangements.

Brett Holman at Airminded has posted up a video of the Aussie pub band Weddings, Parties, Anything performing their song 'A Tale They Won't Believe'. As Brett explained in a previous post, the song is about a celebrated incident in Australian history, the cannibalism of the bushranger Alexander Pearce. Quite aside from Robert Hughes' version of it in The Fatal Shore, this is an episode which I think I saw Victoria Wood describing in a programme she did about the Empire. Pretty well known, therefore.
Brett also points out – and the video highlights – that the song totally goes off in a packed pub. This set me thinking about history songs: can anyone come up with an example of a song about an incident in modern (or earlier) British history that would get the same reaction?
A few things:
1) I'm talking about a song which references the past, not a song that's a reaction to a contemporary moment and subsequently been seen as 'summing up an era'. Save that for your guest appearance on 'I love the 1980s'.
2) I've said 'British', but I'm willing to cast the net pretty widely, so if it relates to British history we'll have it, even if there's no way the band themselves would count themselves 'British'. This means that, even though it doesn't rock out, I can reference 'Navigator' by the Pogues, which I think is a great history song.
3) The only person I can think of who might come close is the bard of Barking, Billy Bragg. His version of Leon Rosselson's 'The World Turned Upside Down' is pretty definitive, I think, even if he doesn't get much reaction out of the audience here.
But singing about The Diggers and starting a song with 'In 1649…' is a brave way to go, let's face it.
Even so, I have to say that, whilst I have a soft spot for Billy, his views on patriotism and a lot of his music, I've always liked his historical songs rather less than the rest of his work. It gets too preachy for me, and the gap between his politics and mine gets too big. 'Between the Wars' is a classic example: eliding, I think, the 30s and the 80s to not much purpose.
But not a bad song to set on a syllabus on the problems of the British Left and defence policy in the twentieth century. Anyway, it's disqualified from here on the basis that you can't imagine it causing drinks to be spilled, except possibly in the rush to get out of the pub.
4) There is a total ban on 'Willie McBride' on the basis that although it's First World War related, it's bloody awful. Although if you're of a strong constitution, the comments by viewers on this youtube version will remind you of the continuing political significance of the remembrance of the war in Northern Ireland and the Republic.
I'm not sure if I'm particularly working on a point here, or just using it as an excuse to look up songs online. But if we can't come up with a British equivalent, damnit, we'll just have to write one ourselves. Now, who can think of a good rhyme for 'Post war consensus'?

Where has April gone?! My last blog post was in March! My next few posts will play catch-up for anyone intersted in what I've been doing for the last month.
April began with a wonderful "sisters retreat" to a cabin up in North Carolina. I was so busy relaxing and enjoying myself that I didn't take many pictures. (That's Audra & Jessie's job when we're together, anyway.) But here are a few experiences I did catch.
We took a drive into the Great Smokey Mountains National Park and walked around a campground there. We discovered this old church-- originally built in 1836 and later reconstructed in 1912. This picture is meaningful to me because while we were there Abbi started reading the book "Christy," which I then read once we got home. It was set in the Great Smokey Mountains in 1912. It's fun to imagine that this church is similar to the one she taught in.
At the same campground we took a walk along the river. It was actually a horse trail that we followed, but we were careful to watch where we stepped. :)
We wanted to get a picture of the four of us together, but since no one was around to take one, Jessie came up with the idea to hang the camera from a tree and use the self-timer. It worked!
In one of our trips into Bryson City I fell in love with these beautiful blossoms. I later discovered it is a Pink Dogwood. Someday I want to have one in our yard.

Kathy Bates who scored an Oscar as the lead in Stephen King's Misery will be joining Jessica Lange on the next season of the FX hit American Horror Story.
The role Kathy is playing has not been revealed, but it's said to be a rival of whomever Lange is playing in this new installment.
The new season will probably hit the airwaves close to Halloween.
