This Labor Day weekend we had some of our favorite friends over. You might recognize them from our camping trips to Oregon. It's actually kind of funny. When we met Greg and Merriann they had one toddler and we had 10 kids under 10. Their life looked so simple compared to our collection babies and toddlers with an older kid or two thrown in. Now when we get together we have it easy while they juggle diapers, babies and sippy cups with their six kids.
Greg and Merriann are the kind of friends that you don't have to impress, dress up for, clean the bathroom for, or even plan ahead. Our "let's get togethers" usually end up with us sharing not one but two meals together. When we get together for lunch we often don't part ways until the kids need to go to bed. The best part? Greg and Merriann often provide the food, sparing me the need to cook.
Because…let's be honest.
If I were a food blogger (which I'm not) and I ran a food blog (which I don't) it would be called something like The Lazy Chef or Cooking Efficiently or I Really Hate to Cook Dot Com.
While I don't enjoy cooking, I have it down to more or less a science so I can get in and out of the kitchen in record time. In addition, I enjoy eating food, which means I really care about flavor as well. Real flavor, real fast. That's my kind of cooking.
At first, I was going to make one of my favorite outdoor meals, Campfire Cheese Steaks for Labor Day…but we have burn bans on (due to more wildfires) and I had just picked up a Smithfield Roasted Garlic & Herb Loin Filet at Walmart. I wanted to do something fun with the filet…
So I concocted a delish pork variation of my cheese steaks using my BFF (otherwise known at The Kitchen Appliance I Can't Live Without). AKA my pressure cooker.
This recipe is quick, easy, and is made by the not-so-secret ingredient….carmelized onions. With only about ten minutes prep time and 25 minutes in the pressure cooker this recipe is also perfect for busy weeknight dinners.
Smithfield® Marinated Fresh Pork offers a variety of fresh pork (tenderloins, roasts, and filets) at Walmart so you could easily change this recipe up for variety. I would also be good served with rice or roasted potatoes.
These were so, so, so good. I am already planning to make them again. Soon.
Another bonus? These sandwiches are perfect for packing in lunches the next day. They taste just as good cold as they do hot.
- 1 Smithfield Roasted Garlic & Herb Loin Filet
- 3 TBSP oil
- 1 cup water
- 3 onions
- 2 TBSP butter
- 2 loaves garlic bread
- 1 cup Monterey Jack Cheese
- Cut Smithfield Roasted Garlic & Herb Loin Filet in two pieces.
- Add oil to pressure cooker and push sautee button.
- Brown each side of Smithfield Roasted Garlic & Herb Loin Filet.
- Add 1 cup water.
- Cook on high heat in pressure cooker for 25 minutes.
- While filet is cooking chop onions and slowly cook in butter over medium heat.
- Cook until onions are soft and turn a deep brown color.
- Remove from heat.
- Cut garlic bread lengthwise and brown under broiler.
- When filet is finished cooking, release pressure and shred with two forks.
- Add shredded pork to garlic bread.
- Add caramelized onions.
- Add Monterey Jack cheese.
- Broil for 1-3 minutes until cheese is melted.
- Close garlic bread and slice.
- Serve with a slide of coleslaw.
These sandwiches are so good and would be perfect for a busy weeknight. It only takes about 10 minutes to prep and the onions can be browning while the pork is in the pressure cooker.
Smithfield® Marinated Fresh Pork is 100% pork and can be found in the meat section of Walmart.

Batter Blaster: "Just point, blast and cook!"
I found the Batter Blaster nestled between organic half and half and organic kombucha tea on the top shelf of the dairy case at Lunds.
I heard about the readymade pancake batter ("No Mess -- No Cleanup!") from a couple of friends who recently gave the unusual, seemingly antithetical (organic and aerosol?) product a whirl. Amused and skeptical, I set out to try some myself.
The 18 oz can was on sale for $4.99 (usually $5.99). The cakes I made were about what I figured and nothing special: indistinguishable from powder mix in taste, texture and consistency and at easily double the price. Perfectly edible, but eh.
My favorite part about making them was actually the satisfying canned whipped cream sound the batter made when it came out. Plus now I can have pancakes on a whim for the next month or two, uhh, just like I've always wanted?
The story behind the product is actually pretty cute: entrepreneurial underdog takes on supermarket kings. It's not from some food scientist laboratory at Kraft or General Mills but the brainchild of a former cafe owner in San Francisco who apparently originally just wanted to be able to quickly make waffles for his then-girlfriend now-wife.
Apparently, batters for muffins, cookies, brownies and cupcakes are in the works.

She is the all-over Mother Goddess responsible for baby welfare from the womb onwards — or should it be outwards?
Helping with the delivery service are her three daughters, SARAKKA, JUKSAKKA and UKSAKKA, who help choose baby names and prevent nappy rash. And she is married to MADDERATCHA who doles out the souls for the little darlings.
Together, they all help when it comes to inspiration for baby names. (Which one of them was responsible for the name Acker Bilk?)
We suspect MADDERAKKA may also be related to AKKA, the wife of UKKO. But 'akka' means simply female, so our speculation continues...

Show transcript:
Imagine this. You put your heart and soul into designing a brochure…the perfect design, images, colors and fonts. You checked and rechecked the design file to make sure everything was just as you planned because this one needs to be perfect. There's a lot riding on it. And you've had print projects mysteriously altered somewhere during the prepress process before. When you looked at the proof, that green looked different than it had on your monitor and the bold headlines were a smidge off. Plus that one image was not as crisp as it needed to be. Your printer fixed everything, but it took extra time that you didn't have and put your project behind schedule. You don't want to do that again.
So, how do you make sure your print-ready file produces your project exactly the way you designed and envisioned it? Set your file up for success with these five key steps to avoid errors, delays and extra charges.
1. Set your color correctly. Color accuracy is absolutely vital. To ensure you get it right, for four-color projects set your design software color setting to CMYK (that stands for Cyan, Magenta, Yellow, Black) rather than RGB (which stands for Red, Green, Blue). RGB is fine for your computer screen or web-based graphics, but your commercial printer prints in CMYK. Make sure you've properly converted to CMYK before sending your file to your printer or the printed colors may look different than they appeared on your monitor. For spot colors, make sure you've identified the exact PMS colors you want to use.
2. Clearly define your flat and final product size. Identifying these measurements takes only a few minutes and will save everyone time and trouble. Flat size (also called trim size) refers to the dimensions of the product after printing and trimming, before folding or any other operation that would affect its size. Final or "finished" size is the size of the completed product. Your brochure may start as an 8 ½" x 11" flat size and finish, after folding, at 8 ½" by 5 ½". Always provide dimensions as width first, then height. Don't forget to identify folds and allow room for a bleed if there is one.
3. Include the fonts you want to use. Missing and incorrect fonts are a common cause of prepress delays so make sure you've included the correct ones when you send your design file to the printer. Be aware that many typefaces do not have separate fonts to represent bold and italic. When you apply bold or italic formatting to these fonts, your software creates what the pros call a "synthetic" version of the typeface in that style. For example, the typeface Comic Sans MS does not have an italic font version. When you apply italic formatting to text in Comic Sans MS, your software makes the text look italic by slanting the characters. Your desktop printer may print synthetic fonts as expected, but high-end print devices usually do not, so include the true font to ensure you get the look you want.
4. Use high resolution images. Nothing causes more havoc during the prepress stage than a fuzzy logo or a grainy photo. Use high resolution images that are 300 dpi or higher for the best results and don't forget to include them in your design file. Images you pull from the internet usually won't cut it, even if you get permission from the copyright holder, and you'll be disappointed in the quality. Vector art is the best bet to ensure your art is crisp and authentic because it can be scaled without loss of resolution. TIFF files are typical for logos, but they are not vector and can degrade when scaling.
5. Get exactly what you give by converting your file to a print-ready PDF. Skilled printers accept many types of files (Word, PowerPoint, Publisher, etc.), but PDFs are the file type preferred by most printers because they store your design in a way that doesn't change whether the file is opened on your computer or your printer's. All of the design details like fonts, images, etc., can be packaged together in the PDF file to minimize the opportunity for errors when transmitted to your printer. There are still many elements of the PDF that a printer can modify to ensure the best print results, but you can be confident that your design won't be changed accidentally when these adjustments are made.
Sound complicated? The right printer will make it easy for you. Look for a print partner with a staff of skilled prepress professionals who can proactively offer cost-saving, time-saving and quality-enhancing design ideas. If they can also send you a creative suite file with the preferred dialogue box presets so your files are set up perfectly every time, you've hit the jackpot.

It was just so darn misty out this morning that I had to ask, "just where has the Hollywood Sign disappeared to?"
Usually even on misty mornings the iconic Sign perched on Mount Lee and the Griffith Observatory on Mount Hollywood are still visible, but not today, the mist cover was just so thick you couldn't see much of anything at all.
The Hollywood Sign visible on a clear day
I've spoken about the lost city in the mists before, but this morning around 8.30am at Runyon Canyon the marine layer or pollution layer, whatever you want to call it, was intense. Saying that though, it was still a beautiful morning and the sun was burning through the layer of mists and I'm sure it will be gone by early afternoon.
Sprawling L.A. shrouded by mists
A fellow dog walker said to me the other day that it was the 'June gloom' come early and she thought it was due to global warming, because in the twenty years she'd lived in L.A. she'd never seen the skies so overcast this early in the season.
Whatever the reason though, Cooper didn't seem to mind. Usually any cloud cover helps to keep things cooler for a couple of hours, which means he has more energy to play with other dogs and we tend to make it round a lot quicker than when the sun is beating down on the canyon.
With all that said I'm off to enjoy the rest of the day, whilst the pup sleeps, and get a massage to help my aching legs and lower back from all that hiking...

... immediately quit drinking. He went down hill very quickly. The worst being May of 2014, when he ended up in ICU with HE. He was given the drug rifaximin. Since that time, it has been nothing short of a miracle. Still not drinking since his initial diagnosis, which I know has been key, but he also no longer has to have a paracentis every 3-4 weeks. The muscle wasting has not only stopped but he is gaining healthy weight and muscle. (He is even back to work) While I know there is no cure, is it possible there is a remission point? If so how long does it last, so long as he remains alcohol free?
Liver Cirrhosis - My husband was diagnosed with Alcoholic Cirrhosis of the liver in July 2013. He?

22 months ago I was told I would be dead by this June. In early January this year the same doctor said 5-10 years before you have to come out with a huge scar on your side (I'm eligible for interview for a place on the transplant list now). He is guessing another 5 to 10 years of life and take off a couple for dyeing.
Quitting alcohol wasn't even hard in the end; it took less than three weeks.
What stage are you Stephen ? I'm at stage 4 and the Dr. said getting rid of the Hep-C is the best thing at this point for the Liver. Also said people can live a normal life with stage 4.
He quit drinking that day. They gave him some sort of meds and that helped. He went to see about a transplant last year and they said he was to healthy. (yeah)
I'm in no way a medical professional, but after going through two experience of cirrhosis (with my father and father in law - pancreas and liver) I've had some experience I can share. "Cirrhosis" really only means that the cells of an organ have been damaged severely enough that they can never be repaired - they essentially become scars and no longer function - there is no "remission" or "healing" - this can happen to many organs. While "end stage" is the last stage, it doesn't go from 0% to %100 overnight - people seem to be given the same diagnosis, but at different levels.
With the liver - it can still partially function with partial cirrhosis - and I've learned that those that don't strain their liver with alcohol (most important if alcohol induced), excessive salt, sugar, proteins - basically things that are hard to process - can live years with reasonably treatable symptoms with medical support. I'm NOT clear how much normal "healthy living" with a damaged liver is slowing or preventing altogether further damage - but I know it's critical to long-term success.
It's great news that your husband has quit drinking and is slowing further damage! Alcoholism is a disease in itself that needs to be treated before improvement can take place.
The other side, what I believe shortens life expectancy (even with rule-book liver-care and treatment) is that having a less than 100% functioning liver (and with any cirrhosis, that will always be the case without a transplant), it
1) puts strain on other organs/systems to help support what he liver can't do - increasing chance of their damage/failure and
2) increases the chance for infection and cancer of the cirrhosed cells - which can be unovercomable
Because of these two very critical risk factors, medical professionals will tell you that the only 'cure' is a liver transplant. It's just not healthy to live with a cirrhosis liver... I don't know about the risk factors of liver transplant vs treating a mildly cirrhosised liver - but I think it would be a good question to ask your hepatologist or internist.
Hope some of that helped.
Honestly, it's been a painful process for me, and sharing anything that might help someone else makes the pain a little more bearable. {hugs}
I think every person is different. Obviously, not drinking is key. After that, I think a healthy lifestyle, good genes, positive karma and attitude, and a supportive family go a long, long way. I'll share my story, which may give you some hope. I've come from the lowest of the low to a really good place where I feel like I may have beat this thing. I was hospitalized in early 2013 and stayed there for almost ten months. I had a major episode of hepatic encephalopathy and was diagnosed with ESLD due to heavy drinking. The doctors never had good news for me and I'm pretty sure they didn't think I would come out alive.
I had paracentices weekly, a tracheotomy, kidney failure with dialysis for two months, pleuradisis surgery (to attach my lung to the lung sac to keep fluid from creeping into my upper body cavity), a loss of 70 pounds (weighed in at 80), neurological damage from the HE which caused loss of all feeling or movement in one of my legs (knee to toe), and a raging stage IV bedsore on my tailbone that would not heal. When I finally had gained a little weight and they were able to get rid of some of my chronic infections, I had a skin flap surgery to close the sore where I then had to lay on one side of my body for SIX weeks. Then I had to learn how to stand and walk again.
It's now been two and a half years and I feel pretty darn good. In fact, I forget anything is even wrong with me, except for my half-way-there foot. My MELD score has maintained at 8-9 since I've been out of the hospital (range is 6-40, with 40 being awful). I had the TIPS porcedure which raises the risk of HE, but so far I haven't ever felt like I was out of my head. In fact, Ive hardly taken the lactulose because I don't like the side effects and I stopped taking the rifaximin five months ago just to see if I could. I haven't noticed a difference at all (don't tell the doc). So now I just take diuretics and gabapentin for the neuropathy in my feet. I've had several CT and varicies scans with good reports.
I've read a few stories about people who said they reversed the damage. Don't know if it is even possible, but it gives me hope. The docs always give me vague answers when I ask these types of questions. I do know that people who tank fast from heavy drinking in a shorter amount of time as opposed to decades tend to have a better chance of recovery. While I am on a transplant list, it would be more risky for me to have one at this point than not. But who know what the years to come hold. The doctors can't tell me what will happen in five or ten years. I will just expect the best and live as long as the next person. I'm 47 and have lots of life left.
It saddens me when I read some of these posts about people diagnosed with cirrhosis who continue to drink. That's just asking to die. Be positive and don't drink is pretty much my best solution.
My ex-husband lives with me. He moved in about 6 months ago. I have seen some really odd behavior that has gotten worse. Today at 430pm he had to eat so he BBQ's some steaks and I was not hungry as it was 430PM. So I sat with him at the table and at 5 he asked me how my steak was. I never ate. I see this type of behavior more and more.
I then told him did, "Did you not hear me tell you I was not hungry and I placed my steak on the stove?". He just looked at me with a crazy look. I can see his eyes are blood shot and yellow.
He then went to his room with some ice cream and within a half hour he was asleep, snoring.
Is this alcohol affecting his mind.
He will not go to the doctor. Yes he has the huge stomach and he sleeps at least 12 hours a night. When I go over a bump in the road he holds his stomach.
Since he is not willing to go to a Dr. I need some support. I already went to alanon when I was married to him.
I'm not sure what to expect from here. He told me he was fishing today but I think he was probably at a bar. That really doesn't matter as I am not going to follow him around like a child. I just don't know what these symptoms mean and what to expect in the future.

This Is Not A Test by Courtney Summers.
It's the end of the world. Six students have taken cover in Cortege High but shelter is little comfort when the dead outside won't stop pounding on the doors. One bite is all it takes to kill a person and bring them back as a monstrous version of their former self. To Sloane Price, that doesn't sound so bad. Six months ago, her world collapsed and since then, she's failed to find a reason to keep going. Now seems like the perfect time to give up. As Sloane eagerly waits for the barricades to fall, she's forced to witness the apocalypse through the eyes of five people who actually want to live. But as the days crawl by, the motivations for survival change in startling ways and soon the group's fate is determined less and less by what's happening outside and more and more by the unpredictable and violent bids for life—and death—inside. When everything is gone, what do you hold on to?
Snap! How freaking awesome does this book sound? It's like zombie apocalypse + Lord of the Flies + the worst case of cabin fever EVER. If it weren't gauche to feature a book in both Wishlist Wednesday AND Cover Love, I totally would. This Is Not A Test doesn't come out until June and I'm already itching to get my hands on it.
But the cover! Yes, that's what we're here for, the cover. How cool is that cover? It's not the gilded opulence of Halo (my choice for CL#1), but that's okay.
The muted colors give the cover a somber feel. Even if I weren't sure it was apocalyptic, I wouldn't pick up this book in hopes of a fun-hearted romp. The model's pose only adds to the creepy vibe. She isn't posing seductively, hair flowing in the wind. Instead, her hair is making her face, suffocating her, robbing her of her identity. She looks freaking spooky. Add her pale skin, the gaunt jut of her collarbone, and the way her head tips to the side as if her neck has been snapped... Deliciously horrific without being graphic.
Then, of course, the font. I don't know what font that is or what the static around the letters is supposed to be, but to me it looks like cracked, diseased skin. You know that ashy, cracked look infected skin gets in movies, the kind that makes you want to itch and itch and itch? This is apocalyptic epidemic at its most disgusting. [And as I type this, my brother turns on I Am Legend. Cue spooky music now.]
Last, but certainly not least, look at the top left corner by the author's name. Blood spatter! If you had ANY doubt as to the feel of this book, if somehow the colors, model, and font did not convince you... well, consider yourself convinced.
If this book lives up to even a fraction of the cover's promise, it'll be amazing. I cannot wait.
What do you think of this cover? What cover bowls YOU over?

Sweat With Kayla App Conclusion
There are a number of benefits that come with fitness, including protection from injury and illness, providing a feeling of strength and confidence and improvement in appearance. But many people are not sure where to begin when it comes to embarking on a fitness program. The tips provided here will aid you in getting started on your fitness regimen.
When you are weight lifting to increase fitness, it is always preferable to use free weights, not machines. This is because the free weights will allow you to build up the supporting muscles around the major muscle groups. Machines, instead, focus on very specific areas. You will see an increase in the amount of weight you can lift on the machine, but not as much strength as if you used free weights.
If you don't already have a personal trainer, consider paying for just a few sessions. Often times you don't need to pay for ongoing training, just a couple sessions to get you on the right track, and find out what kind of exercises you should be doing to meet your fitness goals as well as learning proper techniques for executing them.
Yoga used to be an obscure activity, done only by those into new age experiences. But yoga has become so mainstream that it's almost impossible now to find someone who hasn't tried it. There are many types of yoga exercises, which focus on stretching and elongating muscles. There is yoga that focuses on relaxing, but also fitness yoga that gets your heart pumping.
One of the best ways to stay fit is to have a fitness buddy. This is someone who is committed to exercising with you on a regular basis. You can go to the gym with your fitness buddy or just do fun forms of exercise like walking, hiking, surfing, swimming, bicycling or dancing. Having a fitness buddy keeps you motivated!
A really good way to get fit is to join a boxing gym. Boxers are some of the most fit athletes in the world and by joining a boxing gym, you'll have access to all of the resources they have. Hitting a speed bag is just one of the things you can do.
Fit in some stretching exercises when you are sitting at your desk at work. It is not good for your body when you sit at your desk for hours without getting up. Every 60 to 90 minutes, if you can get up and stretch for five minutes, you can increase the circulation in your muscles and prevent muscle cramps.
Do not regularly use a weight training belt when lifting weights. With continued, regular use, wearing a weight belt will hinder muscle growth and weaken your lower back and abdominal muscles. Only wear your weight training belt when attempting max lifts such as deadlifts, squats, and overhead presses.
Think outside the box when it comes to your weight loss and fitness goals. Instead of doing the same boring things like running, walking, push ups, etc. try something fun. Why not take a dance class? There are tons of fun classes you can take that will whip you into shape.
Avoid exercising when you are under the weather, unless you are only sick above the neck. To be on the safe side, it is best to just take the day off to rest. Besides that, all of your efforts from exercising would not go toward building your body up, but they'd go toward healing it from your illness.
Take care of your runner's calves by changing your sleep position. This will help to better stretch them out during the night. Begin by sleeping on your stomach with your feet hanging off the bed; this will cause your legs to stretch out your calf muscles all night. This will prevent painful calf stiffness the next morning.
A good way to build forearm strength is to crumple up newspaper. You should lay a piece of newspaper on any flat surface. Using your dominant hand, start with one corner of the newspaper and begin crumpling. You should crumple for about 30 seconds. After you have finished that, switch hands.
As previously discussed, as your physical fitness increases, you will notice that your appearance, performance and health benefit. As this article went over, it doesn't have to be difficult or boring when starting your physical fitness routine. Put these ideas into play in your lifestyle, and you will quickly notice your health improving with Sweat With Kayla.

Microsoft Outlook comes with features that enable sustaining data for longer duration in the form of archives. However, the feature is applicable on Outlook's default data file; PST. When in connection with Microsoft Exchange Server, users are given the option to create a local replica of their mailbox to be able to work even in offline mode, i.e. not in connection with the server. Later this replica can be synchronized with the server to update the data on server that was generated when in offline mode. This replica is created by enabling Exchange server Cache Mode in Outlook and is called Offline Storage Table, better known as OST file. This blog will introduce users with the requirement for conversion of this Exchange mailbox offline mailbox replica.
What Makes OST File Conversion Necessity?
The problem with this kind of file is that, maintaining it for long term purposes is both risky and sometimes not possible as well. Let us take a look at the whole scenario for a better understanding of the same.
Firstly, the offline storage files are just a temporary storage. The data in this file remains in synchronization with Exchange Server mailbox. Thus, any accidental removal of email or other items that take place on the Server mailbox automatically reflects back on its local replica. Thus, loss of data cannot be balanced with the mere existence of the OST file as, once synchronization takes place, the same data is also removed from the file.
Secondly, an OST file being a local cache of the Exchange mailbox only works in connection with it. The OST file is bound to its own respective mailbox and will only work when the keys of both the mailbox and OST must match in order for them to sync.
Converting OST File without Data Compromise
The Exchange OST file can be converted to an independently accessible file like; Outlook PST which doesn't come packaged with as many limitations as with an OST file. Though the transfer of OST data file to a PST is feasible manually but due to technical hurdle like; delay in transfer due to large number of items, too much of end user efforts required, etc.
Relatively, a commercial utility works better at such tasks with the ability of dealing tactfully with data file of any size, in any state (corrupt, healthy, or orphaned), etc. OST Recovery successfully serves the purpose in the required manner. Moreover, the tool can also convert the data of OST to EML and MSG format files apart from Outlook PST.

New Orleans Cuisine
Essays dishing up how New Orleans created its unequaled culinary mystique
With contributions from Karen Leathem, Patricia Kennedy Livingston, Michael Mizell-Nelson, Cynthia LeJeune Nobles, Sharon Stallworth Nossiter, Sara Roahen, and Susan Tucker
New Orleans Cuisine: Fourteen Signature Dishes and Their Histories provides essays on the unparalleled recognition New Orleans has achieved as the Mecca of mealtime. Devoting each chapter to a signature cocktail, appetizer, sandwich, main course, staple, or dessert, contributors from the New Orleans Culinary Collective plate up the essence of the Big Easy through its number one export: great cooking. This book views the city's cuisine as a whole, forgetting none of its flavorful ethnic influences--French, African American, German, Italian, Spanish, and more.
In servings of such well-recognized foods as shrimp remoulade, Creole tomato salad, turtle soup, and bread pudding, contributors explore a broad range of issues. Essays consider the history of the city's cookbooks, markets, food purveyors, food writers, famous restaurants and their neighborhood counterparts, and the differences between Cajun and Creole cuisines. Recommended serving instructions for each dish or beverage, drawn from historical cookbooks and contemporary chefs, complete the package.
New Orleans Cuisine shows how ingredients, ethnicities, cooks, chefs, and consumers all converged over time to make the city a culinary capital.
Susan Tucker is curator of books and records at the Newcomb Center for Research on Women at Tulane University. S. Frederick Starr is chair of the Central Asia-Caucasus Institute at Johns Hopkins University and the author of many books on New Orleans and Louisiana.

Will of Nicholas Metcalfe
In re the Estate of Nicholas Metcalfe deceased
In the name of God. Amen. I Nicholas Metcalfe of Chamberlains, Conception Bay, in the Island of Newfoundland, farmer, being weak, but of perfect mind and memory, and knowing that it is appointed for all men once to die do make and ordain this my last will and testament. That is to say principally, and first of all, I give and recommend my soul into the hand of Almighty God, that gave it, and my body I commend to the earth to be buried in decent Christian burial, according to the Rites of the Church of England, nothing doubting but at the general Resurrection I shall receive the same again by the mighty power of God, and as touching such worldly estate wherewith it hath pleased God to bless me in this life I give devise and dispose of the same in the following manner and form.
In witness whereof I have hereunto set my hand and seal this third day of March in the year of our Lord one thousand eight hundred and eighty-six. Nicholas his X mark Metcalfe (LS)
I certify the foregoing to be a correct copy of the last will and testament of Nicholas Metcalfe deceased.
(Listed in the Margin next to this will the following)
|Note: The wills in those will books are NOT actual wills. They are hand-written copies of a, "last will and testament," written by the court clerk, after the death of the testator, when the executor presented them to the court for probate. The court clerk didn't list the signatures at the bottom, he (or she) just put them in the book in whatever order they were in, on the original document, no spacing most of the time, no punctuation. The originals were kept by the executor.
We who have typed these wills, have made every effort to include all the errors that were on the microfilm, in order to avoid destroying the integrity of the originals, where ever they may be.

The myth of the cave in The Republic is a story about some people who were brought up in the dark. They were confined to one space and were unable to even move their heads. The only thing they could see was shadows which were made by people who were outside of the cave. One of the people in the cave somehow manages to get out and learns the truth about life. There are several different interpretations of the myth of the cave.
One interpretation is that the myth has a religious theme. The people are in the dark and finally one is brought out into the light. Another interpretation is that the person who got out of the cave symbolizes a person who is looking for something different and has the courage to seek the unknown. The last interpretation is that the myth symbolizes the journey of scientific discovery. While these interpretations are interesting I feel like they're lacking something. None of them really seem in place with what the rest of The Republic is about. The Republic is primarily a political text, but none of the interpretations really have anything to do with politics.
In my interpretation, the myth is directly related to politics. In Aristotle's Nicomachean Ethics, he writes a section about political science. He writes that political science is not a suitable field for a young person because they are too emotional and politics require action (1095a1-10). I think that the enslaved people in the myth are young people. "He would need to grow accustomed to the light before he could see things in the upper world outside the cave (516a)". A person needs to gain some life experience before they can get into politics and become a capable leader. They have to grow up and watch other people working to gain experience in order to go into politics. The one who gets out is the one who is most suitable to lead. He does not just sit around waiting for something, he goes and does. Politics requires action and that's just what this character did. Plato writes, "The intellectuals will take no practical action of their own accord (519b)". The other people who were in the cave did nothing but learn from these shadows, while the other person got up and acted.
Earlier in the text Socrates had said that he felt that a leader leads like a parent. They are looking out for the greater good and not just what is best for themselves. In the myth, the liberated person does not go back into the cave. This person, who in my interpretation is the leader, is looking out for what's best for the other people in the cave. When a caterpillar builds itself a cocoon and grows into a butterfly, someone could very easily open up the cocoon for him so that he doesn't have to open it himself. But that would do him no good. The butterfly needs to strengthen his wings in order to fly. Just like here. The liberated "leader" could have gone back and told the rest of the slaves what he had learned, but it would have done them no good. They need to find that out on their own. A parent looks out for the greater good of his or her children and this leader is looking out for the greater good of his former peers.
At the end of the myth Plato writes, "You must therefore each descend in turn and live with your fellows in the cave and get used to seeing in the dark; once you get used to it you will see a thousand times better and they do (520c)". Plato is letting it be known that it doesn't just take a person of action and a person looking out for the greater good of his people to be a good leader. In order to be a good leader the person must be grounded as well. He must understand his people and what they have to deal with. In order to make well-informed decisions a leader needs to experience certain things.
The myth brings the text full circle. The text began with Socrates' opinions on what a leader is. Now the text is explaining what a good leader is.

Cool Million
Cool Million is an upfront production team and collective of soulful friends taking soul back to the future. We respect and love the past, but we also believe in progress.
Cool Million was founded by Frank Ryle, a well known soul music personality in his home country Denmark. As the founder of Denmark leading soul music page, Soulportal.dk, Frank has built up a huge network worldwide of artists, radio- and club DJ's and record companies over the years.
Rob Hardt (Seductive Soul) of Germany is the second half of Cool Million. Rob is a well respected remixer, songwriter and producer. His credits includes production, remix and songwriting for artist like Chaka Khan - Never Miss The Water - Reprise Records / Keith Sweat - Twisted - Reprise Records / Roger Troutman & Zapp - Livin For the City - Reprise Records, just to mention a few. He also (together with Harry Zier) produced the acclaimed debut album of Donald McCollum "U Don't Want My Love", released on Dome Records in 2006. Other releases from Rob include another acclaimed set, his own jazzy deep house project The Defloristics entitled "Back In The Days" on Lil Angel Records.
"Naughty Girl", their debut single featuring Lene Riebau on vocals, is already out on Expansion Records compilation album "Soul Togetherness 2007".
Cool Millions next offering was "Walk Away" featuring Scottish artist Eleana. The Kleeer inspired track got attention all over soul land and furthermore it is featured as the newest release from Sundae Soul Recordings (out of Germany).
Cool Million (Rob & Frank) are now ready with their debut-album titled 'Going Out Tonight'. The album will include a variety of new talented artist and more well-known names (male & female).
Rob & Frank grew up listening to the same kind of music from around the start of the 80's and their debut-album are therefore infused by this practically period. We talk about 808 drums, handclaps, uplifting party music and strong vocals from some of the best singers around today.
Cool Million is a heartfelt desire to, as they say, "Take Soul Back to the Future" and furthermore create and preserve the essence of the term "Soul".

MBA students have the opportunity to attend summer programs at other dance academies as well as attending MBA's summer program. This summer six of our students (Emilee Alexander, Corinne Jarvis, Madison Massara, Luca Massara, Gabe Rajah, and Sierra Post attended programs at other dance schools nationally and internationally. Emilee Alexander attended the Long Beach Summer Intensive (which included a tour performing in China); Corinne Jarvis attended a 5-week intensive with Miami City Ballet School and two-week intensive at the Princess Grace Dance Academy in Monte Carlo, Monaco; Madison Massara attended 5 week intensive at the Pennsylvania Ballet School; Luca Massara and Gabriel Rajah attended a 3-week program at San Francisco Ballet School; and Sierra Post attended the Butler University Summer intensive program. Many of these students also attended partially or in full the MBA summer program. We asked them to share their experiences with our MBA families. Below is what they had to say:
How did you get into the summer program you attended?
Sierrra had to send pictures, and complete an application process. Emily and Corinne (for the Monaco program) did video auditions; Luca, Gabe, Madie and Corinne also auditioned in person at the scheduled auditions in Chicago. Luca, Gabe, Madie and Corinne auditioned for multiple programs and were accepted to many of them.
What do you think was the best aspect of the summer session you attended (other than MBA)?
Sierra said she enjoyed the small size of the classes (abut 15 students) that allowed for individualized attention, Madie enjoyed learning Balanchine choreography as well as classical variations, Luca enjoyed making new friendships with other young people from around the world who share his passion for dance and enjoyed working with new and different teachers. Corinne indicated that from the Miami program she enjoyed working on Balanchine and classical variations, working on jazz technique, performing in the company's costumes, and she loved trying different steps in pas de deux class and learning to dance with different partners. From the Monaco program she loved the amazing teachers and the individualized attention (12 students in her class with dancers from all over the world including students from the Bolshoi, Paris Opera, and La Scala). She also thought that the contemporary classes were phenomenal in which she learned two different choreographies from the Les Ballets de Monte Carlo's repertoire. Here is a quote from Corinne: "all the teachers were amazing because not only did they push your technique to the limit, but they did not allow the students to compromise by shutting down their face and arms and losing quality, expression, and artistry. They pushed everyone to maintain both technique and artistry as well as stressing the importance of musicality".
What did you NOT like about the program you attended?
For Sierra the program was too short (3 weeks). For Luca: "The dorm food, and the long, hot walk to the studio", and for Madie, "The nasty food and having to get out of bed at 6am during summer vacation". Emilee loved everything about her program. Corinne felt the Miami program was not a good fit for her, the classes were very large (35 dancers in her class), and there was not much opportunity to repeat exercises or mark steps in the back. For the Monaco program she could not think of anything she did not like, except perhaps for the food and the hard bed in the dorm.

Soviet reaction since the outbreak of the Cuban crisis indicates Soviet short run tactics are governed by the following considerations:
1. The USSR's first objective in the present stage of the crisis is to retain the bases in Cuba. The Soviets not only see considerable military value in these installations, but they regard them as a telling demonstration of the long-proclaimed shift in the "world relation of forces." Particularly now that the US has committed itself to their elimination, they believe that, if they can prevail, they will have scored a political victory of such proportions that opportunities for further advances will open up in all the areas of East-West contention.
2. Thus the immediate Soviet aim is to deter the US from more drastic action. At the same time, they wish to keep the risks under control.
3. Their diplomatic moves and conduct at sea to date suggest that they fear further US action may be imminent and wish not to have their prestige further engaged if this should occur. Thus they have turned back a number of ships, refrained from spelling out their commitment to Castro in as strong a fashion as previously, and tried to represent the crisis as primarily between Cuba and the US.
4. The primary Soviet tactic will be to draw the US into negotiations, meanwhile getting a standstill. The Soviets calculate that, if this can be done, they will have laid heavy inhibitions upon further US unilateral action and that, with the passage of time, the existing bases will become part of the status quo. They prefer, of course, that the lifting of the quarantine be made a precondition of negotiations, but they probably will not insist upon this. They will probably propose or accept any of several forms of negotiation in addition to their own proposal for US-Soviet-Cuban talks.
5. At the present juncture the Soviets probably view a summit meeting as an appealing proposal to keep open the line of negotiation, especially if a stalemate in the UN approaches which might free the US to take military action. With a summit in prospect they would estimate the pressures for the US to wait would be great. A summit therefore would buy the Soviets some additional time, offer a forum to make a reasonable case, confuse the issues, and raise the political costs of further US action. At the same time, they would not want to be faced at the summit with an ultimatum or an unyielding US position which if it resulted in further actions would redouble the humiliation to the USSR and Khrushchev personally. On balance they probably feel that as long as the US did not appear determined to take action the summit offers more advantages than drawbacks.
6. Although the Soviets would like to minimize the risks at the present juncture, they find it very difficult to acquiesce in the US quarantine. Their reported reaction to U Thant's appeal suggest that they could accept for some time a tacit agreement whereby they refrained from sending patently military cargoes into the quarantine area and the US allowed other vessels through upon a verbal declaration of cargo. It is unlikely that the Soviets will submit to boarding, since in doing so they would be accepting the quarantine. So long as they wish to avoid incidents, therefore, they will be extremely anxious to determine how the US intends to enforce the quarantine.
7. At some stage a quarantine incident would probably commend itself to the Soviets as one means of raising tensions and thereby multiplying international pressures upon the US. The best circumstance would be to lead the US into attacking a manifestly peaceful vessel. If the Soviets decide that such an incident is desirable, they would be primarily concerned with subsequent political exploitation and might not undertake an immediate equivalent reprisal against the US.
8. The time will probably come when the USSR decides that it would be useful to increase tensions by stepping up the element of threat in their pronouncements. Even in this circumstance, however, they are likely to continue avoiding any further commitment to Cuba so long as they remain uncertain about US intentions.
9. With respect to the missiles already in Cuba it seems highly improbable that the USSR will agree to withdraw in the absence of major US concessions elsewhere. There is one circumstance, however, in which a break in this Soviet position might occur. The USSR would regard a successful US military action against the bases, or against Cuba as a whole, as a very great defeat, which might substantially stiffen Western determination to resist Soviet demands in other confrontations, e.g. Berlin. If, therefore, they believed that US military action was all but imminent and unavoidable, they might make a last-minute offer to dismantle the bases in return for some Western concession which, while not offsetting their loss, offered some prospect of saving face. They might even attempt to dispose clandestinely of their missiles. It is difficult to conceive, however, how the Soviets could frame such moves or time them properly. Thus in this circumstance they might decide to let the US attack proceed and to recoup as much as possible thereafter through political exploitation and, perhaps, an off-setting injury to US interests elsewhere.

Smokehead Islay Single Malt - Who Done Made It?
So I got to taste some new whiskies today and this was by far the most intriguing bottle in the bunch -both in flavor and in history. Ian Macleod Distillers Ltd. has a whole portfolio of interesting products, like the Isle of Skye 8 Year Old that we sell here at K&L, but this new Smokehead has really set off a buzz on the internet - mainly because they are being tight-lipped about who actually made it. It's definitely Islay and from what I heard the average age of the whisky is around seven years, but it could easily be mistaken for Ardbeg, Caol Ila, or Lagavulin. I think it could be Ardbeg because it tastes like Ardbeg and I know that they have a strict policy about involving their name with other products beside their own. The nose is full of fresh seaweed, peat smoke, and salt water, while the palate replicates the aromas almost precisely. It's a delcious Islay malt and a good deal at around the $50 mark. The question again is: who made it? It doesn't really matter to me because I like it, but if I could tell people it was Ardbeg we'd have a real mover.

This posting provides basic information for determining your proper hydration needs and strategy. As with all running related recommendations there are no fixed rules; everything depends on each individual athlete.
Before introducing recommendations on running hydration, it is important to remember:
a) It is unwise to seek weight loss through body fluid loss.
b) Hydration needs are dependent on each person's specific physiology, weather conditions, and training intensity and duration.
c) While we are all familiar with the concept of dehydration, hyponatremia is the other side of the coin. Too much liquid ingestion can cause an electrolyte imbalance, creating a life threatening condition.
Dehydration is the loss of fluids and salts essential to maintain normal body function. Dehydration occurs when the body loses more fluids than it takes in.
- Over ingestion of liquid can cause hyponatremia. This risk increases in novice runners whose marathon time is over 4 hours. Novice runners are prone to ingest more liquid than faster runners, and their slower speed facilitates liquid ingestion.
- Time- or distance-based approaches to hydration (drink x amount of liquid per hour / every ten miles) does not considers the specific condition of your run or your hydration status when you start exercise.
a) If you are a novice runner: Aim to minimize weight loss (1-3% of body weight) during a bout of exercise your exercise
- In the recommended readings, you can find the USTAF guidelines for calculating your suggested liquid ingestion based on sweat rate
- Most recommendations aim at zero weight loss from body fluid during a race or training session; this implies same weight before and after racing or training. However, not all body fluid lost impacts dehydration. The body "combusts" carbohydrates and in the process produces water. This water evaporates through sweat causing acceptable weight loss.
b) If you are an experienced runner, learn to drink according to your thirst
- The main objective is to drink as your body "requests" fluids through your thirst (ad libitum). In the past the recommendation has been to drink before thirst appeared or drink as much as you can
A key part of your training is to understand your hydration needs, but in order to hydrate you need to have access to liquid. So, we recommend that you carry your own liquids when you run.

The company was founded in 1997 when it began developing and manufacturing air intake systems for light trucks and SUVs, utilizing the cotton-gauze filter technology that was available at the time. The original AIRAID® Intake System combined an open-element filter with an intake tube to make an easy-to install air intake kit that dramatically increased air flow, improved performance and generated more horsepower and torque.
It didn't take long to realize, that as the sales of intake systems nearly tripled in the first year of production, another source of filters was needed. At the time, AIRAID®'s founders believed they could produce a better-quality filter utilizing new technology and state-of-the-art materials. By November 2002, the AIRAID® Premium Filter Company was formed.
AIRAID® Premium Filters consist of multiple layers of cotton-gauze plus one layer of synthetic fiber material called SynthaFlow®, sandwiched between either stainless steel or aluminum mesh, depending upon the application. The casing of the filter is hand-poured urethane, which offers superior performance and durability, and won't shrink or crack from prolonged heat exposure under the hood.
Superior filtration and flow, thanks to the SynthaFlow® material, is what makes AIRAID® Premium filters better than the rest. SynthaFlow® enhances dirt filtration down to two microns and is moisture resistant. AIRAID® Premium Filters are also washable and re-usable and are guaranteed for life.
Over the years, AIRAID® Premium Filter Company has become the recognized leader in air management for both gasoline and diesel power plants. Extensive research and development has allowed AIRAID® to come to market first with high-quality products that improve drivability and performance. It has also allowed us to further expand our product line to offer a complete line of AIRAID® Intake Systems and PowerAid® Throttle Body Spacers.
