Why do some artists "break through", while other don't? That's the question at the heart of BURNING EMBER – how Steve Bell, an accomplished artist with a storied 25-year career still hasn't achieved the level of success in the US that pretty much everyone agrees he should have. At age 54, can Steve Bell still achieve "success" – and with it, a level of financial security – that will allow him to continue his work? A fascinating tale for artists and music-lovers alike.

ucfgrly04 one review Revealed Monday, Oct 10, 2016 Psychology vs. Psychic Studying? I named for the first time and was greeted by Luis who I assumed was really beneficial and useful. I used to be a first-timer and presented a promotional price. I had half an hour to utilize on the psychic which was preferred for me... I did deliver him which has a title of a psychic that had a wonderful review but I had been kindly knowledgeable that she is not included in the promotional supply. I used to be then referred to the Fiona.... I used to be on along with her for sixteen min, she failed to "join" with me, as the business refers it as. She was extremely type and delicate spoken but requested me Each individual Issue. She did more in the talking then me.... in no way place on. But I just brushed it off as, it's probably legitimate.... I just couldn't connect. So I referred to as back again and positive plenty of Luis picked up and made available ten minutes added again on since I put in much too lengthy around the cellular phone with her. He advised me, "This is exactly why we request if You can't hook up with your psychic then hang up as soon as possible." I tried to give her a chance. In any case, so I used to be at the outset told that there were no other psychics that could link with me referring to the 3 subjects I wished to concentrate on for instance: perform, spouse and children, and people who have passed on. So Once i questioned if I can remove the spouse and children part I had been told that there was certainly somebody which can acquire my contact.
sandreen 3 reviews Printed Thursday, August 13, 2015 Up to date Friday, August 21, 2015 fakes i read with sally one other day and this Girl fed me all lies and almost nothing else she is a lot more fake than a clarks designed in china believe in me....claimed my bf was dishonest lying and so many other items so i considered at the beginning and phone my bf up cursed him and California Psychics Reviews fundamentally telling him its around All of this time he was saying he isnt dishonest and no matter what i heard isnt accurate anyhow i clld up my fav psychic 1 night time which can be charlotte very few legitimate psychics they have more than there and she is a person she stated what that lady stated was not real and my bf is trustworthy and if she noticed some thing she might have reported it.
Caorline #6263 - She could not even connect with me so she held asking me issues to snoop all over for my data, all the things she said was so typical like she was just instructing me how factors Normally do the job inside the Universal, then she gave me a so-known as prediction saying that I'd listen to some good news in late August, Now's September, I hear absolutely nothing and I am Practically like a hundred% that I won't listen to anything at all base on the true Incontrovertible fact that I discovered with my scenario. Fraud!
The method is a bit various for every psychic provider, It appears. Not all of them run the same way, and it's truly worth realizing how they perform to grasp beforehand if you can be comfortable with them or if you ought to search somewhere else on your readings.

*berry silly* layout
Made this layout today for a challenge on a scrappy site I play at. The challenge was to use the strawberry ribbon that is along the bottom. The ribbon is a bit "vintage" and was a bit of a challenge. I ripped its edges to give it my own look.
I also tried making my own "lace" paper for the first time. Lol! Ouch…quite the work out for my hand, but I think it turned out sweet.
The strawberry has microbeads on it that are actually the color of the bright pink in the layout, but I discovered cameras are not fond of micro beads. Grrr…
One of the cool things about using a hole punch for the lace is I was able to coordinate the quote with that paper too. 🙂 The quote is one of my favorites, "Don't take life to seriously. You will never get out of it alive."
This layout features my adorable neice goofing around at the strawberry patch.

Great job on the ribbon challenge. I love the idea of doing handmade lace, came out cool.| Posted 10 years ago
I hadn't even realized that you had done the lace yourself! Wow, awesome idea! Have you tried using other punches for it? Your niece is adorable too BTW!| Posted 10 years ago

Monday 4.19.10
Smoke, the cropped version.
Yes, the cropped version. If I showed you the complete shot you would see that on the lower left, just out of view, is the Tea Party. Just out of view on the upper right would be my ass. Seems somewhat backwards that they would be on the left and I would be on the right… but it is my picture so I'll describe it as I want. Why not? Those TPers are making up their stuff.
Listening to the onslaught of Tea Party news over the last few weeks, the ramping up to the big Tea Party fizzle on the 15th and the news since – I come to the conclusion that this group is screwing with me. Me the person. I am one of We the People, no? I can be just as stupid as anyone buying into this movement or just as smart as those that are conning the others to get involved. Get involved with your pledge of only $10.00 per month (limited to the first 10,000 – yeah, right . I am sure that when they hit number 10,000 they will announce the name of that person and declare an end to fund raising as they have met their goal).
Here's what I gather, and I really have tried to read their crap – they want smaller government and less taxes with an accountability of all of the government spending. Seems like a fair idea. In fact, it seems like the same damned idea that every other "we the persons" have had since we became "We the People." This is new? I am much more interested in knowing specifically how they plan to go about doing this. It seems that when this question is asked the reasonable answer is to question the birth place of the current president. Wait, what? Oh, ok… you don't want to be pinned down to answer a question, you just want to stir shit. Well, congratulations. You have wasted my time and scared the living shit out of some of "we others of the people."
A fellow I have worked for over the years came into the shop for some work late this afternoon. As I was making him a couple of labels he asked how things have been (for me in the sign business). I told him that the winter, like always, was slow but things were picking up again. They usually do this time of year. Even so, things are still depressed around here due to GM closing and the housing boom not booming. A lot of my regular work is geared towards contractors and new business starts, which have slowed considerably. He also asked if I had taken any new pictures lately. He flipped through one of the albums and asked about the picture of Obama. I told him that I had taken it at a fundraiser event in 2007.
He then went on to tell me that even though he voted for Obama, he does not share that information freely with many of his co-workers. He figured that Obama would be a one term president. He also touched on the world of shit we seem to be in now that we have elected him. Touched on, no specifics. Hmm, perhaps he somehow missed the Health Care reform and the Nuclear arms reduction. He'll probably miss the upcoming "no bailouts" bill. I think when election time comes and we have to put together a score card we will find that DESPITE all the bi-partisan help he received, he accomplished much more than has been done in recent years. Not bad for a mixed race, Kenyan, Marxist, Socialist, Community organizing illegal alien. Where can we find a couple more of these guys?

SLUGGERS – So Much Love | New Music
SLUGGERS, after having teased the title track for their upcoming Anthem EP, have now come forward with latest release, "So Much Love". The EP is due Friday, October 28, and recent output has seen them garner support from the likes of A-Trak, Diplo and Skrillex and standout slots at Ultra, EDC and other global dance festivals.
"So Much Love" has a foreboding groove to it, pounding bass drum assisted by some eerie Doctor Who esque aspects. The female vocals lend it a moody sassiness, the bass deep and sometimes overdriven. Said bass is isolated briefly for a sense of dynamics that drops back other elements to help the track permeate deep inside the listener's mind.

I've always wanted to be involved in the media since before I even left school; to write for a living.I feel most eloquent when mapping out my thoughts on paper or on a computer screen.I studied media at college for two years, and went straight into third year at university studying publishing with journalism.After a range of work experience, I did a magazine journalism course in Bournemouth, a long way away from my hometown of Aberdeen, achieving my NCTJ qualifications.Now I spend my time gladly writing about music.

120mm Portrait Series: Angel B
Aly & Kyle
Boy oh boy did Digby ever deliver for this wedding. With non-stop sunshine and crystal blue water the conditions were perfect. The bonus was having a bride and groom like Aly and Kyle who were totally into climbing around on a rugged cliffside for photos.
Isabelle & Jason
Oh, this is a big one. I don't like to overshare but I just didn't know where to stop. If I'm shooting your wedding and we get a golden juicy sunset, I will probably utter an excited profanity, shed a tear or two ( which I'm happy to admit I did both ) and we will be shooting through the magic hour into dusk, annndd I will probably make you late to your reception... but you'll thank me for it later. I hope. All that golden goodness, the most adorable MOH reaction, two separate dance performances, plus fireworks and a raging party to boot.... guess you just had to be there. Isa & Ja, thank you <3
Tea & Greg
A golden warm October evening ending in a bonfire. These autumn days come and go too fast but I'm glad I got to spend one with T&G.
Alexandra & Stephen
Motorized canoes, beautiful mountains, a thunderstorm, island hopping, popping bottles of champagne... etc. etc. etc. Spending this day with Alex and Stephen was so good.

And all I did was stop to help....
You would have done the same thing if you saw an elderly woman with a walker trying to flag people down. It was about 7:30 at night on a quiet road near my home. I did the only thing a person would do, I made a U-turn to see if I could help. She said. "I just want to go to 7-11, would you take me there?" Only Caligula would have declined so I loaded her walker in the back helped her into the front seat all the while wondering what I was doing....and what she was doing. She must need milk or something is all that was going through my head.
I start...."7-11 is pretty far, what do you need there?" I'm thinking, It's July, it's the desert, it's so hot...this is crazy.
She was a very nice looking older woman, stylish jeans, knit pink top, adorable straw hat with a scarf to match. So I was quite surprised by what came next. She began with an assessment of her situation which was 2 artificial legs and 2 fingers on one of her hands. Also a husband she hates with all her heart because she suddenly showed evidence of a previous longshoremen career. The number of swear words she packed into one sentence describing him was impressive. And not just the toe stub ones....the full on rap music ones.
It might have been the most incongruous moment of my life,
I also realized when she started speaking happy hour had long begun and I was probably on a beer run. And then I thought....my family is never going to believe this.
When we arrived at 7-11 I told her I would go in to get whatever she needed. She seemed relieved and handed me money with instructions to buy the yellow topped Chardonnay.
Yellow topped Chardonnay? Does 7-11 sell wine? I rarely go beyond an occasional Mountain dew and kit kat bar, so I went to the coolers to look for the wine. Sure enough there was wine! I chose 2 bottles of yellow topped Chardonnay and it was within the budget my new friend had provided. I quickly looked around to see how many people were there I knew because I was all ready to tell them "the funniest story!" I knew I was either in a Fellini movie or a Stephen King novel...time would tell.
I quickly went to the checkout line hoping to put an end to this escapade. But not quite yet.... the woman at the front of the line was also buying 2 bottles of Yellowtail Chardonnay. (Seriously? what are the odds?) She was having a disagreement with the checkout guy over the price of Yellowtail Chardonnay. She insisted it was 2 for $8, she was so insistent he had to make a call to someone to check. Even with a line that was now twisting around the store, she was not backing down and insisted it was 2 for $8. Not only am I buying Chardonnay at 7-11 but it is on sale, 2 for $8. She turns around sees I am buying the same thing and proudly tells me not to worry she is going to get this wine for us at the reduced price. All I can manage is, "Thank you so much" all the while hoping no one I know walks in because if there was ever a time for doing good deeds in private it was this one.
After finally getting to the front of the line, surviving the cold stare of the check out guy who has to sell more mismarked wine 2 for $8 I proudly get in the car with my purchase. Finding a deal seems to please me no matter what the circumstances so I think she will be delighted as well. I imagine her saying, "you wonderful woman! Thank you for providing me and my no good husband with enough wine to last us all week!"
Uh no....she is furious. That adorable straw hat does nothing to soften her anger at the 2 bottles of wine I have purchased.
"What am I going to do with that?" she practically screams at me.
"Wait, it's Yellow topped Chardonnay, isn't that what you wanted?"
"I wanted the little bottles I can just guzzle, that's too big! What can I do with that?" My vision of a couple of wine glasses, this delicious product, and some cheese must not have been her vision. She was highly incensed and I realized it was a Stephen King novel. I'm thinking if I don't make any sudden moves everything will be ok.
So I offer, "No problem! I will take it right back in and find the little bottles you can guzzle"
She calmed down and off I went wondering when this was going to be over.
I found 2 little bottles at $1.99 and convinced the beleaguered check out guy to swap it out and back to the car I went.
Happiness....I had completed the mission....now, where does she live? I couldn't remember where I picked her up and I am not sure she knows where she is either. But the Scarlet O'Hara comes out in me and I calmly ask her where she would like to go now.....oh please know where you want to go.
"Take me to the bathrooms at the park." Not exactly what I anticipated but ok there is a destination in that sentence, so good....
I start driving and she asks, "Where are you going?"
"To the park."
"This is the wrong park."
"OK, which park?"
"The one on Gowan."
To myself I think there's a park on Gowan? I had no idea...Where is the park on Gowan?
Then she says, "It's ok, you can drop me off anywhere" Well, I know where that is, so I pull over and she impatiently looks at me and says..."Can't you take me to the park?" I ask her, "A park on Gowan? How about if we just drive over to Gowan and look until we find the park?" That appealed to her so after driving quite a while we finally find the park. Yes! I drop her at the bathrooms, but not close enough the first time so on my second effort I get her walker out of the back of the car, situate her things and bid her goodbye...
Lucy Ricardo would have been so proud....

Three cheers for the New York Times
Actually, three cheers for Sharon LaFraniere who had the guts to write a big time story and to her Times' editors who had the guts to run it. The story is one of fraud, fear, and the general idiocy that's come to characterize the federal government, as epitomized by the current Administration. As such, LaFraniere provides a long-form story; yes, there's much to tell.
Also present: massive lawyers' fees, sidestepping the Congress, and a pathetic failure of stewardship. It's all a cash-based form of Obamaphone, for "discriminated-against farmers," writ large, real or imagined.
And the documentary requirement to get paid by the government in the case was set quite low: nothing.
John C. Coffee Jr., a Columbia Law School professor and specialist in complex litigation, said that not requiring documentary evidence "was quite unusual, but there were also special circumstances."
Still, he said, "I don't think they realized how much of an incentive they were creating for claims to multiply. It is a little bit like putting out milk for a kitten.
"The next night, you get 15 kittens."
The kittens at the milk-pan analogy is… kind.
"It was the craziest thing I have ever seen," one former high-ranking department official said. "We had applications for kids who were 4 or 5 years old. We had cases where every single member of the family applied." The official added, "You couldn't have designed it worse if you had tried."
Yet the bigger question is this: are the conditions described in the article an exception to the rule of government or do they rather reflect the rule itself?
The Clinton Administration had the issue basically put to bed: just 91 claimants were to receive $50K each for a total payout of less than $4.5 million. By the time it got to the Obama Administration, it had grown a thousand times, exploding into a $4.4 billion handout.
In 16 ZIP codes in Alabama, Arkansas, Mississippi and North Carolina, the number of successful claimants exceeded the total number of farms operated by people of any race in 1997, the year the lawsuit was filed. Those applicants received nearly $100 million.
In Maple Hill, a struggling town in southeastern North Carolina, the number of people paid was nearly four times the total number of farms.
And the money line, so to speak?
"Basically, it was a rip-off of the American taxpayers."
Disgraceful. Criminal. Disgusting. Normal.
Demand better, America.

The color challenge for last week on StampTV was to use Elegant Eggplant, Baja Blue and Kraft. Just lovely colors and I thought I would figure out a design using the Top Note Die from SU. I covered the place where I halved the die by adding some grosgrain and was tickled when I found this kraft colored button in the bottom of my button jar. The sprigs were punched using a Martha Stewart punch.
My daughter's recital went very well. She performed her piece beautifully and we are so proud of her. The Lord has definitely blessed her with a talent and love for music. Honestly, there is nothing better than listening to her practice... I will have pictures to scrapbook soon, just need to get them developed. :o)
Our 15th Anniversary was on the same day and hubby is so sweet to me...he even padded my stamping stash....He knows me so well! Which is good because Gina K. is having another release this week....oh-no! :o))))

I thought weekends were supposed to be relaxing
On Saturday morning SB had a birthday party to go to halfway across town at 10am. 10am! Who has a party at 10am? Sheesh. So I dropped SB off with presents for his friends and spent the time usefully ie doing the weekly shopping. Which was pretty awful. Edinburgh is having a little heatwave at the moment and it seemed like the entire population of the city was in Asda buying ingredients for a barbecue. Which was, as it happens, what I was trying to do. It was like a superficially polite game of rugby with trolleys. Violent and ruthless but with a lot of apologising.
Having fought my way to the checkout, I scooped up SB and headed home where laundry awaited my attention. As did a couple of bran scones I had bought earlier (I needed some incentive after all).
Then later in the afternoon, we started to get ready for the barbecue. It was my birthday last Wednesday and my sister-in-law's partner's birthday on Saturday itself, so a joint celebration was planned involving all 4 of us, SIL and partner, and my mother-in-law and her husband. It was a lovely evening, the food seemed to go well and the boys enjoyed themselves telling their vast range of Scottish jokes (sample: Ten cows in a field, which one is a country? Coo 8.)
On Sunday morning I was up and about early to head out to Musselburgh for the Edinburgh Marathon. I was again allocated to the finish area for the relay teams and spent the day laying out 4000 medals and then helping to remove 1000 timing chips from 1000 sweaty legs. The weather was very hot by Edinburgh standards (about 24 degrees or so) and sadly many people did not finish and the first aiders and paramedics were kept very busy. Fortunately the guys from my office did well and all finished, raising about £2000 for their charities in the process. I did my bit by supplying the finishers with jelly babies. The organisers supply sports drinks, water and bananas at the finish but sometimes bananas just aren't enough and only pure sugar and food colouring will do!
I heard later that many people along the route of the race had been out in their front gardens with hoses, showering the runners as they passed - very thoughtful and very gratefully received by the runners!
I limped home after about 6 hours on my feet and we finished off the leftovers from the barbecue in the evening. By about 8.30pm I was dead on my feet and eventually wandered off to bed, only to wake up with the aforesaid headache. Fortunately that has now gone, headed off by about 18 hours of sleep!
Encouraged by all those fit people running around on Sunday I finally got around today to signing up to the new gym to which I have access as a perk of my new job. I have my induction session tomorrow. Wish me luck!

Happy belated birthday!ReplyDelete
Good luck! Hopefully a nice new gym will give you lots of motivation.ReplyDelete
Send some my way if you find it! x
Good luck!ReplyDelete
It's not an actual year since the last Edinburgh Marathon is it?? Can't be, surely!
Whew, I'm have a headache reading all that! What a weekend! I find that really warm weather does me in too, limp and useless I am.ReplyDelete
Congrats on the gym.The thing is to keep going:)I have to do get myself back there on a regular basis, so easy to get out of the habit:)
You busy lady! Love how ASDA is chockers as soon as the sun comes out :)ReplyDelete
COO 8! Genius :P
24 degrees and everyone is dropping like flies -- that's hilarious. It was like that in Halifax, too. Here in the non-coastal part of the country we don't even start to complain until it gets into the high 30'sReplyDelete
First time on here - good luck with the gym. (Have to confess I hate them...ssssh.) If I even had a pound back for all the gyms I've joined....sigh.ReplyDelete
Coo 8!!! Bwahahaha, that's brilliant. I would express the same incredulity at 24° being heat-exhaustion territory, but I have a circumpolar map up on my office wall, and it shows that Edinburgh is at roughly the same latitude as Fort McMurray, Alberta. So 24 being hot makes sense.ReplyDelete
Happy belated birthday, Loth. A barbecue sounds lovely, and well worth the trolley scrum in the grocery store.
18 hours? Wow. I want some of that.ReplyDelete
Good luck with the gym. I simply detest those torture houses! Right now the puppies are keeping me VERY BUSY! I had forgotten. I think the new owners are buying the puppies too cheaply. Next time I must figure in the cost of my getting up at 5 AM every day for two months!ReplyDelete
Happy birthday, dear Loth, but that was some time ago. Now I've finished my Higher marking I want to read your blog. Get posting. (Please.)ReplyDelete

HONEY! It's Wednesday and look what I found at SeedGeeks, artisan raw honey.
Our honey is never heated and is only slightly strained to ensure it contains all of the benefits the bees provide in pollen, propolis, vitamins, minerals, and enzymes. Our hives are never treated with any antibiotics, miticides, or fungicides and are never fed high fructose corn syrup.
Our goal as beekeepers is to help the honeybee population and provide pollination for our organically grown trial gardens. They also provide us with the highest quality honey that has a delicious and complex flavor due to the abundance of heirloom varieties available for forage.
My next wonderful find are these gorgeous hand forged bronze hair pins from HannahJeanMetalworks, what a beautiful way to accessorize! Bronze Hair Sticks, they are unique and really hold the hair. Long hair sometimes requires two sticks. Each stick is around 5.5″ total in length.
Looking for something wonderful for home decor? I found this beautiful macrame wall hanging created by CheyenneMoonDesigns. Hung from driftwood found on the shores of Lake Pend Oreille in northern Idaho OR an oak wooden dowel (*due to lots of snow – this hanging is not available on driftwood during the winter months.*) this simple cream colored yarn macrame wall hanging is the perfect addition to any living room, bedroom, or nursery! This hanging has multiple diamonds within it. if you would like more rows of knotting or a different design altogether; contact their shop for a custom order!
For those of you who love to journal, this leather journal created by CurtisMatsko is a must have!
We use thick, US Tanned Cowhide; oiled and conditioned to a soft yet durable finish.
Rugged Natural CLASPS

As the zombies reach the apex of their fame, people became more curious and susceptible to anything "zombie." This is evidenced by the flesh-ripping television hit series: The Walking Dead.

This sinister adventure of survival will surely give the users the thrill of what it's like to live in an apocalyptic world of the undead. Furthermore, this app is free and is downloadable at the play store.

Clarion-Ledger's wrap up here. Crux is how Jamal Pittman thrust himself (uh, huh huh huh, he said "thrust") into a prominent running back role. Silly me, I thought he was already in the mix for starting tailback. Anyway, the article notes:
"In four weeks, the once-embattled ball carrier methodically plowed his way from seldom-used third-string status under the previous coaching staff to co-star — and co-starter — on arguably the team's best performing unit during spring drills."
I didn't go to the Spring game this year because I was moving into a new house (more on that later, maybe, who knows, does anyone really care) but according to sources who WERE there, Pittman looked good when he ran with the first team offense and Pearson looked good when he ran with the first team offense. So they essentially drew.

Google search results of "Chucky Mullins" here.
And a short trailer for the Chucky Mullins documentary here. I saw this movie at the Ford Center last year before the Auburn game (more on Auburn here), and, well, you've never seen a bigger group of men weeping. An amazing movie about a terrific kid.
Apparently, Cutcliffe screened the movie for the team the night before the Auburn game.
We still lost 35-14.

Un film documentar de 27 de minute despre cultura underground şi atitudinea faţă sexul fără prezervativ, la Londra şi la Berlin.
The Bareback Issue which is a 27 minute documentary film about bareback culture in London and Berlin. It takes the form of frank interviews with men who bareback, their actual experiences, habits, thoughts and feelings. Two doctors are also interviewed on the risks and consequences of the practice. In addition there are extracts from a panel show at the Royal Vauxhall Tavern where the spread of HIV among gay men was discussed.
The subjects covered include bareback sex parties, use of recreational drugs and alcohol, sexual habits, numbers of partners, bareback pornography, risks, safety precautions including use of condoms, financial cost of HIV, HIV and other infection especially Hepatitis-C, health effects of these, reasons for doing bareback sex.
Barebacking is the term used by gay men who have sex without condoms. Years after safer sex campaigns unsafe sex is back and much more common on the gay scene than many care to admit. But why? The Bareback Issue delves into London and Berlin's club land interviewing men who go bare, doctors and other leading thinkers in the area.

The Fox #1
It's that most rare of beasts: an all-ages comic.
It's fast, light-hearted, loaded with action and humor, a nasty villain, a few surprises - and it's a lot of fun!
The Fox is a character who's actually been around a long time, first appearing in 1940, popping up a few times in the years since, but never really managing any lasting success.
Now that Red Circle Comics has been revived, we're seeing the return of heroes like The Fox, The Shield and The New Crusaders.
The Fox really feels like a classic character - his secret identity is Paul Patton, a reporter / photographer has a knack for getting in trouble and attracting weirdos - and he manages both of those here, as he tackles an assortment of thugs and demons, all while cracking jokes.
The story and art are by Dean Haspiel, and both are fun, kinetic and yes, a bit comical - in the best possible sense. The script is by Mark Waid, and that was enough to get me to pick up this issue.
Look, it's not deep, it's not grim - it's just a fun comic. Would that there were more like it!
Grade: B+

I really enjoyed this myself. I'm hoping this line is successful enough we can see all the MLJ characters, especially Inferno.

That looks beautiful!!!
Hello all! Sorry for not posting much in the last week (I'd like to give a big shout-out to Erin for keeping things up!) but I have been in North Dakota with Kevin, keeping him company since his grandpa died last week. I did want to post a quick recipe that I use quite often. It's from Hunt's (Thanks ConAgra for employing so many of my family members, including me at a time, and making awesome food!) and is super easy. The original recipe calls for sausage, onion, and green pepper; however, you can easily sub in your favorite pizza toppings. Kevin and I make it with green pepper and pepperoni (turkey pepperoni if you are looking to cut calories/fat). Here's the recipe I use (again, you can totally add in whatever ingredients you'd like instead of pepperoni and green pepper–except if you are a sicko who likes pineapple on a pizza. Don't you dare put it in this calzone). Enjoy!
Pizza "Calzone" Bake
1 refrigerated pizza dough (I use Pillsbury)
1/2 cup pizza sauce (I like Hunt's Sauce with Basil, Oregano, and Garlic)
Pepperoni (to your liking)
1 green pepper
1 cup mozzarella cheese
1. Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Unroll the pizza dough on a greased baking sheet.
2. Spread pizza sauce on dough, stopping 1/2 inch from the edge of the dough. Put toppings on and the cheese.
3. Pull the dough over to connect the two long edges together. Make sure it is pinched so the topping does not come out. Then pinch the short edges over.
4. Bake for 15-18 minutes and enjoy!

Last week, I was kicking myself for not scheduling a vacation during the deciding games of the first Cubs World Series since 1945.
But I soon realized what was a failure on my part turned out to be a blessing in disguise.
Let me explain.
Like most Cubs fans, I was frustrated after the Northsiders went down 3 games to 1 to start the fall classic.
What happened to those bats that woke up during the National League Championship Series, that carried the Cubs to their first World Series in 71 years? What was going on?
Down but not out
Heading into Game 5 at Wrigley Field, the Cubs faced a difficult stretch where they had to win three in a row to force a Game 7, where a scary Corey "Klubot" Kluber waited. Plus, there was that ridiculous Indians bullpen they hadn't yet solved.
It was an uphill climb, to be sure.
Taking the mound for the first of three must-win games for the Northsiders was the postseason-tested and dominant lefty Jon Lester. And he stayed true to his reputation as he led the Cubs to a 3-2 win behind an offense that felt like it was coming to life.
They were down 1-0 after a second-inning home run by Indians third baseman Jose Ramirez, and things looked a little bleak as the Cubs offense remained rather quiet until the bottom of the fourth.
That's when Cubs MVP candidate Kris Bryant stepped to the plate to lead off the frame. The third baseman hit a deep home run to left-center field off Indians starting pitcher Trevor Bauer to tie it up. Fellow MVP possibility Anthony Rizzo followed him with a double to right, then left fielder Ben Zobrist smacked a single.
Addison Russell stepped to the plate with runners at first and third and no outs. The baby-faced shortstop hit a weak grounder to third but made it safely to first base as Rizzo scored. Zobrist advanced to second.
All of a sudden, the Cubs were up 2-1 and looking to add more.
After a Jason Heyward strikeout, second baseman Javier Baez bunted his way on, loading the bases with one out and catcher David Ross coming to the plate.
Grandpa Rossy hit a fly ball to left-center, scoring Zobrist and putting the Cubs up, 3-1.
That would be the extent of the Cubs scoring, but they held on behind a combined bullpen effort by Carl Edwards Jr. and Aroldis Chapman, as the Northsiders won, 3-2 .
One down, two to go.
Game 6 featured the Cubs' well-rested and defending Cy Young winner Jake Arrieta against Josh Tomlin, one of three Indians starters pitching on short rest.
Things were looking up as the Cubs' offense was waking up. Game 5's offensive output held a lot of promise. Was momentum starting to turn?
Game 6 answered that question resoundingly as the Cubs were up 7-0 before the Indians realized what was happening. Russell lead the offensive charge with 6 RBIs, including a grand slam, in a 9-3 shellacking of the Tribe.
A copy editor's anxiety
That all lead to a Game 7. They say those are the two most exciting words in all of sports, but for Cubs fans, that phrase has the potential for so much heartache.
And, as a copy editor, this particular Game 7 also lent itself to so much anxiety.
My immediate boss and friend, who normally lays out the front page, was on vacation this past week, leaving me with the honor.
I've written at least a few times about how much these Cubbies mean to me, and I certainly would rather have been watching this historic game with my wife in the comfort of my home, instead of the office.
While that frustration clouded my week as the Cubs rattled off those wins in games five and six, another thought crept in my head.
I wanted this front page. I wanted to be a part of history.
So, the night before, after Wednesday's paper was finished, I set to work on a few mock-up front pages for my managing editor, which made for a late night, but I wanted to go in with a plan. I wanted this front page to sing.
After all, should the Cubs win, this Thursday edition was going to fly off the shelves, with the front page likely put on display at homes and bars across southeast Iowa and west-central Illinois. Like all of history's biggest moments, the page will evoke memories of "Where were you when …"
The cover needed to match the moment. And it doesn't get any bigger than the Cubs ending a 108-year championship drought, the longest in all of sports.
So no pressure.
Wednesday, with my DVR set to record the historic game, I headed off to work excited but still rather nervous because of what lay ahead of me and my Cubs.
Game 7 is upon us
Last week, I wrote how I welcomed a tired Kluber in a potential Game 7. I argued he would be arm-weary and not nearly as dominant. That seemed like a solid prediction a week ago.
But now, reality was setting in, and the Klubot looked poised to wrap things up and give the Indians their first title in 68 years.
The Cubs, however, were sending out their No. 5 starter-turned-Cy Young candidate Kyle Hendricks. You know, that same guy who dominated the Dodgers in a Game 6 win at Wrigley that sent the Cubs to the World Series. That same guy who out-pitched an all-time great in Clayton Kershaw.
Honestly, outside of Lester, there wasn't anyone I would've rather seen on the mound, and he was well-rested to boot.
But the Cubs hadn't yet figured out Kluber. And that's what bothered me.
They got to the other two Indians starters in Bauer and Tomlin, but Kluber remained a mystery. Those Cubbie bats were coming to life, however, and, from what we learned in the regular season, once that offense gets rolling, it's hard to stop.
Thursday, I fired up my DVR and watched the game in its entirety, uninterrupted by work, and I watched as history unfolded.
Cubs center fielder Dexter Fowler led off the scoring in the heavy-weight title match with a homer off Kluber, and things looked promising.
The Tribe tied it up in the bottom of the third, however, with a Carlos Santana single (a base hit, not a song), scoring Coco Crisp (the player, not the cereal).
But then, the Cubs started to figure out Kluber in the top of the fourth. Bryant led off the inning with a single, followed by Rizzo, who was hit by a pitch.
Zobrist hit into a fielder's choice, moving Bryant to third.
There was one down, with runners on the corners as Russell hit a shallow fly ball to center field. Normally, that wouldn't have scored Bryant from third, but the Cubs took a chance and sent him anyway, forcing a throw home. The toss was high, allowing Bryant to slide underneath, putting the Cubs up, 2-1.
The play also allowed Zobrist to advance to second with catcher Willson Contreras stepping to the plate.
With two outs in the inning, Contreras smoked a fly ball to deep right-center field, over the heads of the Indian outfielders, scoring Zobrist easily, making it 3-1 Cubs.
Fast-forward to the top of the fifth, when Baez chased Kluber with a homer to right-center field. The Klubot's night was done, and my bold predictions turned out to be right. Who knew?
But Indians manager Terry Francona handed the ball to Andrew Miller, another of the Cubs mysteries, to stop the bleeding.
Fowler greeted him with a single, but Kyle Schwarber, batting second in Games 6 and 7, hit into a double play.
Bryant followed with a nine-pitch walk. Then, on the fourth pitch of a Rizzo at bat, Bryant took off as the Cubs first baseman singled to right.
Like that fourth-inning sacrifice fly, the idea of Bryant scoring seemed improbable. Normally, a hit-and-run gives the offense runners at the corners off a single, but his long stride didn't stop as he rounded third and headed for home. He scored, putting the Cubs up, 5-1.
All was happy in Wrigleyville. For now.
Look, the Indians weren't looking to be embarrassed on their home field, especially when so much was on the line.
And the Tribe looked to start that comeback in the fifth.
In a surprising and somewhat perplexing move that inning, Cubs skipper Joe Maddon took Hendricks out of the game with two outs after a walk that shouldn't have been.
You could see the frustration from Hendricks as Maddon made his way to the mound. The otherwise calm, cool and collected right-hander swore into the glove covering his face, but Maddon had his mind made and wanted Lester, who had been warming in the bullpen.
The move also meant Grandpa Rossy, Lester's personal catcher, would replace Contreras behind the plate.
Maddon's early hook initially looked as dubious, at least initially, as it was mysterious as Lester's relief outing got off to a shaky start. The pesky Indians second baseman Jason Kipnis, a thorn in the side of the Cubs all series, hit a dribbler forcing Ross to make a play that Lester should make. But given Lester's well-documented defensive yips, Ross was forced into action. The throw went past Rizzo at first base, allowing Santana, who reached on the walk by Hendricks, to advance to third and Kipnis to second.
More craziness ensued as Lester uncorked a wild pitch that glanced off Ross' mask, allowing Santana to score. But as Ross went to field the wild pitch, he misstepped, allowing a hard-charging Kipnis to score all the way from second.
The score stood at 5-3, with the Indians starting to turn the corner.
Ross got one of those runs back in the top of the sixth, however, as the 39-year-old unexpectedly homered off Miller, putting the Cubs up, 6-3.
All was quiet for a few innings, as the Cubbies looked poised to end their drought, but that dreaded eighth inning bit the Northsiders in the rear end yet again.
Back in 2003, you'll remember the eighth was when Steve Bartman made his memorable reach, preventing Moises Alou from a tough, but probable play on a foul ball to left, not to mention that booted grounder by shortstop Alex Gonzalez.
Wednesday, the Cubs started out the bottom of the eighth just fine, with Lester getting the first two outs in relative short order, but that third out proved to be elusive. The Tribe's Ramirez singled, which forced Maddon's hand as he looked to fireballer Aroldis Chapman.
The dominant lefty just needed to get one out to preserve the three-run lead.
But Indian outfielder Brandon Guyer doubled to center field, scoring Ramirez.
Now, all of a sudden, the tying run was at the plate in Indians center fielder Rajai Davis. Chapman was one strike away from ending the inning with minimal damage when Davis got a hold of one and sent it over the left-field fence, tying the game.
Are you freaking kidding me?
Frustration sets in
Keep in mind, while I was in the office, I was seeing only bits and pieces of the game while I was trying to concentrate on work, but I was feeling pretty good about the Northsiders' chances up to this point, and I had my front page ready to go, prepared for a Cubs win. I was just missing the main package detailing the game's outcome.
But what could've been an historic, flying-off-the-shelves kind of edition was quickly fading away into an also-ran. Another Cubbie frustration in a long history of bitter pills to swallow.
As an editor and a fan, I was disappointed.
Then, the game went into extra innings, knotted at 6.
So much for making deadline.
Though, to be fair, we didn't really have a deadline, per say. We were under orders to get the game in the paper, no matter what. Of course, it was to be as soon as possible.
And then, the rains came, forcing a delay.
But the delay didn't prove to be nearly as long as I feared, just 17 minutes.
Though it was frustrating, the weather stoppage allowed me to catch up on pages and plant myself in front of the newsroom TV and watch as a fan.
Cursed no more
The Cubs came out in the top of the 10th with bats on fire as Schwarber led off the inning with a single and was quickly removed for the speedy Albert Almora.
A deep fly ball off the bat of Bryant allowed Almora to move to second.
Not wanting to deal with Rizzo, the Tribe decided to intentionally walk him, as they wanted Zobrist instead.
That was the wrong move, as Zobrist ripped a double to left off Indians reliever Bryan Shaw, scoring Almora and moving Rizzo to third.
Zobrist jumped in the air as he pulled into second, pumping his fist. Rizzo just stared at him in disbelief, his hands on his helmet.
The Indians intentionally walked Russell to load the bases with one out for Miguel Montero, who entered the game in the ninth, replacing Ross at catcher.
The same Montero who hit a grand slam in Game 1 of the NLCS against the Dodgers at Wrigley Field came up big again with a single to left, scoring Rizzo.
This was insane. The Cubs could actually win this thing. The thoughts that evaporated in the bottom of the eighth were starting to reappear.
Maddon called on Edwards to close the game and send Chicago into unrivaled bedlam.
Like that eighth inning, the Cubs got those first two outs with relative ease, but the final one proved to be too much for Edwards.
The Tribe's Guyer reached on a walk and took second while the Cubs just concentrated on Davis, the same guy who tied the game in the eighth. The Indians center fielder, however, couldn't be stopped as he singled to center, scoring Guyer.
Maddon saw enough and wanted lefty Mike Montgomery out of the bullpen.
Montgomery needed only two pitches as right fielder Michael Martinez grounded weakly just past the pitcher. Third baseman Bryant came across the infield and slipped as he threw across the diamond to the waiting glove of Rizzo.
It was over. History was made.
A job to do
I pumped my fist, let out a woo-hoo and even gave a fellow newsroom Cub fan a big hug, but I couldn't celebrate long. It was back to work for me.
I had a date with destiny, and that front page awaited.
One of our photographers snapped a great image at a local bar, and I was set. All I needed was the story. And the reporter was quick with his account
I started reading as the nerves were setting in. It was an intense situation that almost felt as if I was on the field with the Cubs during that harrowing final inning.
Only their hard work was done, and mine was just beginning.
I read through the story twice, double-checking details and wording, and finally placed it on the page.
I printed out proofs for my fellow editor, nervously handing it to him.
A short time later, I had them back with corrections to be made.
I made those edits, but I gave it another look-through. Then another. Then another. The situation had triggered my OCD, which normally is an asset as an editor, but I couldn't get myself to send the page.
What if I miss something? What if I screw this up? What if I blow this for the newspaper? All these what-ifs were running through my mind.
Eventually, I sent the pages to the press. The sports editor soon sent what he had left.
The press began rolling shortly thereafter, and I grabbed a few papers and made my way back to the newsroom. I handed the fresh, inky copies to my fellow editor and sports editor for a final look.
I didn't want to find a mistake. After all, I was pretty careful with those front and jump pages, but I nervously inspected that front over and over.
Thankfully, all was well, and I was proud of what I held in my hand. I felt like my page matched the moment and was worthy of display across the region for years to come.
Apparently, the fine people at Poynter felt the same way, as they included my cover in a story detailing front pages across the country celebrating the Cubs historic victory.
But regardless of how any publication feels about my work, I truly was content with what I produced. And you can bet I'll do some framing of my own and proudly put it on display, always looking back on that day, that blessing with a smile.
Earlier this week, I certainly wouldn't have thought that as the frustration got the best of me, but now, I'm thankful for being at least a small part of history.
Funny how that works.

This book tells you why the battle for Sugarloaf Hill ( on Okinawa ) was some of the fiercest fighting of the Battles to captureOkinawa . The thing that amazed me about the Hill was just how small and low-slung it was , and that looked like it would be easy to capturebut in fact was a really tough hill to capture due to the inter-locking features that supported it - and why it was so important to capture .overall , a very good read
Killing Ground on Okinawa: The Battle for Sugar Loaf Hill
To give human dimensions to the story, the author draws on his many interviews with participants and skilfully weaves together their individual stories of the sustained close-quarter fighting that claimed more than 2,000 Marine casualties. Pushed to their physical and moral limits during eleven attempts to capture the fifty-foot-high, 300-yard-long hill, the Marines proved their uncommon valour to be a common virtue, and this detailed record of their courage and commitment assures them a permanent place in history.

Review Text
James H. Hallas's book 'Killing Ground on Okinawa' is one of those books that should be in any decent military history library. Having previously read his account of the fighting on Peleliu, 'The Devil's Anvil' I couldn't wait to read this account of the battle for Sugar Loaf Hill. I am happy to say that I was not disappointed in this book.The author allows the Marines who took part in the fighting tell the story and its incredible to read what these blokes went through for what looks like a very small piece of Pacific Island real estate. The accounts of the fighting men are detailed and to the point and you are forced to sit back and think of how these men endured this hell, it is almost beyond the comprehension of today's generation.The narrative is full of details but the real guts of the book is the first-hand accounts by the men involved in the assaults against the well constructed Japanese defensive positions. Not only were the Japanese well dug in and protected but they used their firepower and weapons to great advantage. They wrought destruction upon the advancing marines. Men and machines were continually being knocked out with no gain being made against the determined Japanese defence.Finally after a heroic night attack the marines secured a toehold on Sugar Loaf but then had to hold against Japanese counter attacks and massive counter fire from artillery, mortars, machine guns and snipers. The casualty list for the marine units were massively high causing some questioning of the strategy and tactics used by the Army High Command. In over seven days of fighting the 6th Marine Division suffered over 2,000 casualties fighting for this pimple of a hill which secured the Japanese Shuri Line.The only fault that I could find with this book was the standard of the maps and photographs. I am sure that they could have been of a higher calibre. Overall this is a great story of combat, dedication, bravery and Espirt de Corp. I think it is one of the better combat accounts of the Pacific Theatre that I have read in some years and I am certain that anyone interested in the Pacific War would be fascinated by this account.
A great read, right down into the detail of what those brave men did.
